Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power equipment technology, and in particular to an energy metering box cover assembly that can be rotated to change the closing direction. Background Technology

[0002] The cover of an electricity metering box is an external protective component of the electricity metering box, usually made of metal or high-strength engineering plastics. Its main function is to protect the metering equipment inside the box, such as meters, transformers, and circuit breakers, from external environmental influences (such as dust, rain, and corrosion) and human interference (such as electricity theft and misoperation). It features a robust seal, strong weather resistance, and anti-theft design (such as the addition of lead-sealed holes). It is a key component in ensuring electricity safety, accurate metering, and stable equipment operation, and is widely used in electricity metering scenarios such as residential communities and industrial and commercial sites.

[0003] When performing maintenance and repair work on electricity metering boxes, the fixed closing direction of traditional box covers may restrict the operator's working field of vision and operating space. For example, when it is necessary to check the wiring connections at the rear of the box or replace equipment located deep inside, the fixed box cover may not provide enough operating space, which may require the operator to use additional tools or adopt an uncomfortable posture to operate. This not only increases the workload, but may also affect the quality and efficiency of maintenance and repair. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model discloses a rotatable power metering box cover assembly that can change the closing direction. It aims to solve the technical problem that the fixed closing direction of traditional box covers may not provide enough operating space, which leads to operators needing to use additional tools or adopt an uncomfortable posture to operate the box. This not only increases the workload but may also affect the quality and efficiency of maintenance and repair.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A rotatable power meter box cover assembly for changing the closing direction includes a mounting frame, a cover plate, a rotating connection assembly, and a magnetic fixing assembly. The cover plate is connected to the mounting frame via the rotating connection assembly. The rotating connection assembly includes a limiting block, a connecting plate, and two adapter blocks. The connecting plate and the limiting block are connected by bearings. The two adapter blocks and the connecting plate are connected by a connecting frame via hinges. One outer wall of the connecting frame is fixedly connected to the cover plate.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, this component allows users to accurately adjust the rotation direction and angle of the cover plate according to actual needs, enabling users to easily adjust the cover plate to the ideal position and meet diverse usage scenarios. Specifically, users first need to find the edge of the cover plate and apply appropriate external force. Due to the damping bearing in the rotating connection component, a certain damping sensation will be generated. When opening, a little force is needed to push or pull the cover plate, but excessive force should be avoided to prevent damage to the component. After applying external force, the cover plate will begin to rotate around the rotating connection component. Users can accurately adjust the rotation direction and angle of the cover plate according to actual needs, such as convenient viewing of the internal instruments of the electricity metering box, wiring operations, etc. After completing the viewing, wiring, or other operations inside the box, users need to perform a specific angle rotation and folding operation on the cover plate. Specifically, first rotate the cover plate to 180 degrees, at which point the cover plate is in a reverse state relative to the initial position. Then, fold the cover plate downwards by 180 degrees. After this operation, the cover plate can accurately correspond to the limiting groove on the mounting frame.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the magnetic fixing component is disposed between the cover plate and the mounting frame, and the magnetic fixing component includes six strong magnets, which are symmetrically distributed on one outer wall of the two adapter blocks.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the strong magnetic sticker is used to provide adsorption and fixation when the cover plate is rotated to different directions (such as specific 90 degrees, 180 degrees).

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a limiting groove is provided on the mounting frame, a limiting strip is provided in the limiting groove, and five limiting holes are provided on the limiting strip. Five equidistant limiting posts are provided on the top outer wall and bottom outer wall of the cover plate, and the five limiting posts are all embedded in the five limiting holes.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the cover plate is in a specific closing direction, the limiting post is embedded in the limiting hole, which further enhances the stability of the cover plate when it is closed. At the same time, the limiting hole is provided with a guide slope. When the cover plate rotates and approaches the closing position, the guide slope cooperates with the limiting post, so that the cover plate can reach the closing position more smoothly and achieve the limiting.

[0011] In summary, this application includes at least the following beneficial technical effects: 1. Greatly improves operational convenience: Users can adjust the cover to the most ideal opening position and angle according to the on-site installation environment (such as narrow space, wiring direction) and personal habits, which greatly facilitates viewing, reading and wiring maintenance.

[0012] 2. Stable and reliable: The dual fixing method, which uses strong magnetic stickers in conjunction with limiting holes and limiting posts, ensures the stability of the cover plate in various states and its firmness after closing, thus protecting the safety of the internal measuring equipment.

[0013] Other features and advantages of this utility model will be disclosed in detail in the following specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The rotatable power meter box cover assembly includes a mounting frame 1, a cover plate 2, a rotating connection assembly, and a magnetic fixing assembly. The cover plate 2 is connected to the mounting frame 1 via the rotating connection assembly. The rotating connection assembly includes a limiting block 6, a connecting plate 7, and two adapter blocks 5. The connecting plate 7 and the limiting block 6 are connected by bearings. The two adapter blocks 5 and the connecting plate 7 are connected by a connecting frame 12 via hinges. One outer wall of the connecting frame 12 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 2.

[0021] It should be noted that the bearing is a damping bearing, which provides a certain degree of damping when the cover plate 2 rotates, facilitating precise adjustment of the closing direction. Both the adapter block 5 and the connecting plate 7 in the rotary connection assembly have wear-resistant coatings on their surfaces, reducing wear caused by frequent rotation and magnetic attraction, and extending the service life of the rotary connection assembly.

[0022] The connecting frame 12 has a "U" shaped structure, which is used to enhance the connection strength and stability between the rotating connecting assembly and the mounting frame 1.

[0023] In the specific implementation process, the magnetic fixing component is set between the cover plate 2 and the mounting frame 1. The magnetic fixing component includes six strong magnets 8, which are symmetrically distributed on one side of the outer wall of the two adapter blocks 5. It should be noted that the connecting frame 12 has a metal material inside, which enables it to be attracted to the strong magnets 8 by magnetism. The strong magnets 8 are used to provide adsorption and fixing when the cover plate 2 is rotated to different directions, such as specific 90 degrees or 180 degrees.

[0024] The mounting frame 1 has a limiting groove 3, a limiting strip 9 is provided in the limiting groove 3, and five limiting holes 10 are provided on the limiting strip 9. The top and bottom outer walls of the cover plate 2 are provided with five equally spaced limiting posts 4, and the five limiting posts 4 are embedded in the five limiting holes 10. When the cover plate 2 is in a specific closing direction, the limiting posts 4 are embedded in the limiting holes 10, which further enhances the stability of the cover plate 2 when it is closed. At the same time, the limiting holes 10 are provided with guide slopes. When the cover plate 2 rotates and approaches the closing position, the guide slopes cooperate with the limiting posts 4, so that the cover plate 2 can reach the closing position more smoothly and achieve the limiting.

[0025] Specifically, the user first needs to locate the edge of cover plate 2 and apply appropriate external force. Due to the damping bearing in the rotating connection assembly, a certain amount of damping will be generated. When opening, a little force is needed to push or pull cover plate 2, but excessive force should be avoided to prevent damage to the assembly. After applying external force, cover plate 2 will begin to rotate around the rotating connection assembly. The user can precisely adjust the rotation direction and angle of cover plate 2 according to actual needs, such as convenient viewing of the internal instruments of the electricity metering box or performing wiring operations. After completing the viewing, wiring, or other operations inside the box, the user needs to perform a specific angle rotation and folding operation on cover plate 2. Specifically, first rotate cover plate 2 to 180 degrees. At this time, cover plate 2 is in a reverse state relative to the initial position. Then, fold cover plate 2 downwards by 180 degrees. After this operation, cover plate 2 can accurately correspond to the limiting groove 3 on the mounting frame 1. This component allows the user to precisely adjust the rotation direction and angle of cover plate 2 according to actual needs, enabling the user to easily adjust cover plate 2 to the ideal position and meet diverse usage scenarios.

[0026] Reference Figure 1In a preferred embodiment, the top and bottom outer walls of the cover plate 2 are both arc-shaped structures. When the arc-shaped cover plate 2 is used in conjunction with the mounting frame 1, it can better fit the edge of the mounting frame 1, reduce the gap between the cover plate 2 and the mounting frame 1, effectively prevent external dust, moisture and other impurities from entering the inside of the power metering box, protect the electrical equipment and instruments inside the box from pollution and damage, and improve the reliability and stability of the power metering box.

[0027] Reference Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment, the top and bottom outer walls of the cover plate 2 are provided with dust sealing plates 11. The dust sealing plates 11 extend along the edge of the cover plate 2. When the cover plate 2 is closed, the dust sealing plates 11 cooperate with the edge of the mounting frame 1 to prevent dust from entering the device.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment, the edge of the cover plate 2 that contacts the mounting frame 1 is covered with a rubber strip. The rubber strip is used to enhance the sealing performance when the cover plate 2 and the mounting frame 1 are closed, and at the same time, it plays a buffering and protective role.

[0029] Working principle: When using, the user first needs to locate the edge of the cover plate 2 and apply appropriate external force. Due to the damping bearing in the rotating connection assembly, a certain amount of damping will be generated. When opening, a little force is needed to push or pull the cover plate 2, but excessive force should be avoided to prevent damage to the assembly. After applying external force, the cover plate 2 will begin to rotate around the rotating connection assembly. The user can precisely adjust the rotation direction and angle of the cover plate 2 according to actual needs, such as convenient viewing of the internal instruments of the electricity metering box or wiring operations. After completing the viewing, wiring or other operations inside the box, the user needs to rotate and fold the cover plate 2 at a specific angle. Specifically, first rotate the cover plate 2 to 180 degrees. At this time, the cover plate 2 is in a reverse state relative to the initial position. Then, fold the cover plate 2 downwards by 180 degrees. After this operation, the cover plate 2 can accurately correspond to the limiting groove 3 on the mounting frame 1.

[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
