Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of terminal boxes, and more particularly to a terminal box for a PDU socket. Background Technology

[0002] PDU (Power Distribution Unit) sockets are power management devices used in computer rooms, server racks, power equipment, and other similar settings. They can provide centralized power supply and protection for multiple terminal devices. To improve wiring efficiency and facilitate later maintenance, PDU sockets are usually equipped with terminal boxes to connect and securely fix cables, avoiding safety hazards caused by bare wire connections. They also facilitate modular cabling management.

[0003] In the existing technology, traditional terminal boxes usually adopt a single-layer layout structure, with relatively dispersed terminal layout and low space utilization. This makes it difficult to meet the high-density wiring requirements in narrow spaces, resulting in messy wiring and inconvenient installation. In addition, traditional terminal boxes are mostly fixed installation structures, which cannot be adjusted on the PDU socket, thus affecting the installation flexibility of the terminal box.

[0004] Therefore, existing technologies have shortcomings and need to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0030] To make the utility model's objectives, features, and advantages more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0031] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. It should be noted that when a component is considered to be "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be a component centrally located at the same time.

[0032] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a terminal box for a PDU socket, including a track housing 1, a terminal box body 2, a flip cover 3, a wiring base 4, a first terminal block 5, and a second terminal block 6;

[0034] The track housing 1 has two inner sidewalls respectively provided with sliding grooves 10, and the junction box body 2 has two sides provided with retaining plates 21. The retaining plates 21 can be slidably disposed in the sliding grooves 10. When installing the junction box body 2, simply align the retaining plates 21 with the sliding grooves 10 on the inner wall of the track housing 1 and push them in along the direction of the sliding grooves 10 to allow the junction box body 2 to slide smoothly into the installation position. This simplifies the installation steps of the junction box body 2, avoids the junction box body 2 from deflecting during the sliding process, and allows the junction box body 2 to still be finely adjusted in position within the sliding grooves 10 after the initial installation is completed. This allows the installer to flexibly adjust the position of the junction box body 2 according to the actual installation requirements, thereby improving the layout flexibility of the PDU socket.

[0035] The junction box body 2 has a receiving chamber 20 inside, and the wiring base 4 is disposed in the receiving chamber 20. The wiring base 4 has a first wiring layer 41 and a second wiring layer 42 arranged vertically. The first wiring layer 41 is located above the second wiring layer 42. The first terminal block 5 is disposed on the first wiring layer 41, and the second terminal block 6 is disposed on the second wiring layer 42. By arranging the first terminal block 5 and the second terminal block 6 in layers in the vertical direction, the space utilization efficiency inside the junction box body 2 can be effectively improved, so as to realize more wire connections within a limited volume and meet the high-density wiring requirements.

[0036] The first terminal block 5 includes a first conductive terminal 51 and a first connecting piece 52. The first wiring layer 41 has a first positioning groove 411 on each side, and the first positioning grooves 411 on both sides are separated by a first partition 413. The first conductive terminal 51 is disposed in the first positioning groove 411, and the first conductive terminals 51 on both sides are electrically connected by the first connecting piece 52. The bottom of the first partition 413 has a first slot 414 for the first connecting piece 52 to pass through. During the wiring process, the first conductive terminals 51 on the left and right sides are respectively connected to the cable cores from the external power supply and the internal module of the socket. The first positioning groove 411 is used to fix the first conductive terminal 51, so as to avoid the position of the first conductive terminal 51 from shifting and causing the wiring to loosen. The first partition 413 can isolate the first conductive terminals 51 on both sides to prevent accidental contact or short circuit.

[0037] Pins are provided on both sides of the junction box body 2 at the upper end of the first partition 413. The flip cover 3 is rotatably connected to the pins. The flip cover 3 is used to close or open part of the receiving chamber 20. This arrangement allows the junction box body 2 to be opened or closed as needed during use. Specifically, when wiring or performing maintenance, the installer can flip up the flip cover 3 to expose the internal structure, facilitating cable connection or wiring adjustment. After the operation is completed, the flip cover 3 can be closed to cover the internal conductive terminals, preventing external dust from entering or accidentally touching the conductive parts, thereby improving the safety of the terminal junction box.

[0038] like Figure 6As shown, the second terminal block 6 further includes a second conductive terminal 61 and a second connecting piece 62. The second wiring layer 42 has second positioning grooves 421 on both sides, separated by a second partition 422. The second conductive terminal 61 is disposed within the second positioning groove 421, and the two conductive terminals 61 are electrically connected by the second connecting piece 62. The bottom of the second partition 422 has a second slot 423 for the second connecting piece 62 to pass through. In this embodiment, the wiring principle of the second terminal block 6 is the same as that of the first terminal block 5, and will not be described in detail here.

[0039] like Figure 5 As shown, the first positioning groove 411 and the second positioning groove 421 located on the same side are staggered in the vertical direction. This arrangement allows the first conductive terminal 51 and the second conductive terminal 61 of the upper and lower layers to be arranged in a staggered relative position, thereby reserving installation space for wiring operations and effectively improving the convenience of wiring operations.

[0040] like Figure 6 As shown, the length of the second connecting piece 62 is greater than the length of the first connecting piece 52.

[0041] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first terminal block 5 further includes a locking bolt 54 and a nut 53. The first positioning groove 411 is provided with a recessed hole 412 for placing the nut 53. The locking bolt 54 passes through the first conductive terminal 51 and the first connecting piece 52 from top to bottom and is connected to the nut 53 by threads. This arrangement can improve the connection stability of the first conductive terminal 51 and prevent poor contact caused by the first conductive terminal 51 loosening.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, the junction box body 2 is further provided with a recessed groove 201 on the top. The recessed groove 201 is used to accommodate the flip cover 3 in a closed state. In this way, not only is the structure of the entire junction box more compact and flat, but the risk of the flip cover 3 being accidentally lifted due to the exposed protrusion is also reduced.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, further, the end of the sink 201 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 202, which is used for inserting fingers to open the flip cover 3, thereby improving the ease of operation of the flip cover 3 and the human-computer interaction experience.

[0044] Furthermore, both the first conductive terminal 51 and the second conductive terminal 61 are made of copper.

[0045] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
