Abstract

To eliminate all problems associated with attaching and detaching the protective cover, without the need to attach or detach the protective cover from the panel enclosure. [Solution] The housing 11 is equipped with six rectangular plate-shaped protective covers 131 to 136 from the bottom up, which divide the opening 12 on the side into six sections in the vertical direction to close it. The left and right ends of the first to fifth protective covers 131 to 135 are engaged with guide rails 151 to 155, which are provided as vertical grooves adjacent to the left and right sides 14L and 14R of the opening 12, respectively, so that each protective cover 131 to 135 adjacent to the opening 12 from front to back can slide up and down along the opening 12. When the first protective cover 131 is raised, the lower ends of the second to fifth protective covers 132 to 135 are sequentially pushed up by the protective cover push-up parts 161 to 164, and each protective cover 131 to 136 overlaps adjacently at the top of the opening 12, and the opening 12 is opened.
