[0015] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 7, in an embodiment of the present invention, a junction box 100 according to the present invention is used to store a wire 1. As shown in FIG.

[0016] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the junction box 100 has a cover body 10, a box body 20, and a fixing member 30.

[0017] The lid body 10 has a first lid surface 11 and a second lid surface 12 . The first cover surface 11 and the second cover surface 12 are disposed opposite to each other.

[0018] A first connecting portion 111 is recessed in the first cover surface 11 of the cover body 10 . In this embodiment, the number of the first coupling parts 111 is plural, and the first coupling parts 111 are respectively installed at each corner of the first cover surface 11, and the fixing members 30 are installed thereon.

[0019] An anti-slip portion 112 is provided on the first cover surface 11 to increase the frictional force with an object. The anti-slip portion 112 has a plurality of blind holes, which are arranged on the first cover surface 11 . The shape of the plurality of blind holes may be triangular, quadrilateral, circular, etc., but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0020] As shown in FIG. 2, a pivot portion 13 is provided on the second cover surface 12 so as to protrude therefrom. Furthermore, the pivot portion 13 is designed to be hollow inside, which reduces the amount of material used and the cost of manufacturing. An engagement groove 131 is recessed on each of the opposing sides of the pivot part 13. The engagement groove 131 is used for the pivot movement of the cover body 10.

[0021] In one embodiment of the present invention, the engaging vessel 131 has a vessel mouth 131a and a movable section 131b. The tank mouth 131a and the movable section 131b are connected to each other. The opening width of the tank mouth 131a is smaller than the radial width of the movable section 131b, so that the engagement tank 131 has a generally T-shape.

[0022] The cover 10 has a first opening 14 . The first opening 14 penetrates the cover 10 . The anti-slip portion 112 is adjacent to the first opening 14 . When the box body 20 is covered with the lid body 10, the first opening 14 passes through the wire chamber 21 of the box body 20 and the outside of the box body 20, and the wire 1 passes from the wire chamber 21 through the first opening 14 and communicates with the outside of the box body 20. On the other hand, when the first port 14 does not need to be used, the plug 2 is installed in the first port 14, so that the container 21 is not communicated with the outside of the box body 20.

[0023] As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the box body 20 and the lid body 10 are pivotally connected. The box body 20 is made of a plastic material. The box body 20 is formed as a single piece. The box body 20 has a straight wall 22 and a base 23 .

[0024] The straight wall 22 is connected to the base plate 23, thus forming the container chamber 21 and the fitting chamber 24. The fitting groove 24 has protruding portions 241 on both opposing sides thereof, and the protruding portions 241 can be coupled to the engaging grooves 131 of the pivot part 13. Thus, the pivot part 13 pivots on the fitting groove 24.

[0025] The protrusion 241 of the fitting groove 24 has a coupling section 241a. The peripheral width of the joining section 241a is smaller than or equal to the opening width of the tank mouth 131a. The length of the coupling section 241 a is approximately equal to the depth of the engagement trough 131 . When assembled, the coupling section 241a enters through the tank mouth 131a of the engagement tank 131 and is thus positioned in the movable section 131b, so that the coupling section 241a can move in the movable section 131b of the engagement tank 131.

[0026] Furthermore, an opening 241b is provided in a recessed shape on the top edge of the fitting groove 24. The opening 241 b is adapted to the shape of the pivot portion 13 . The opening 241b allows the pivot portion 13 to pivot in the fitting groove 24. That is, since there is no obstacle between the opening 241b and the pivot portion 13, the pivot movement can be performed smoothly.

[0027] The fixing member 30 selectively fixes the cover body 10 to the box body 20 . The fixing member 30 may be a screw. When the lid body 10 is placed on the box body 20, the fixing member 30 is placed between the lid body 10 and the box body 20, and fixes the lid body 10 and the box body 20 together.

[0028] As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, the straight wall 22 has a first opening 221 , and the base plate 23 has a second opening 231 . The first opening 221 can be installed at the front, rear, left or right side of the straight wall 22 . The first opening 221 can be removed by application of an external force, thus forming a connection port 221a. An adapter 3 is placed in the connection port 221a so that the wire 1 can be housed therein. The second opening 231 is disposed approximately at the center of the base plate 23. The second opening 231 can be removed by application of an external force, thus forming a second passage. When the box body 20 is covered with the lid body 10, the second port communicates with the container 21 and the outside of the box body 20.

[0029] In one embodiment of the present invention, the box body 20 is provided with a groove 25, which can reduce the material and cost used during manufacturing. The groove 25 is located on one side of the carrying groove 21, the groove 25 is adjacent to the mating groove 24, and the groove 25 does not affect the pivotal movement of the pivot joint 13. The number of grooves 25 is two, and the fitting groove 24 is located between the two grooves 25.

[0030] As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the straight wall 22 and the base plate 23 form a hollow second joint portion 26. The hollow portion of the second connecting portion 26 is directly connected to the base plate 23, so that the manufacturing material can be reduced. The second connecting portion 26 is disposed in correspondence with the first connecting portion 111 . The fixing member 30 is installed in the first connecting portion 111 and the second connecting portion 26 and fixes the cover body 10 to the box body 20.

[0031] In one embodiment of the present invention, the junction box 100 further includes an airtight member 40 . The airtight member 40 can be made of a material having flexibility. The airtight member 40 is installed along the top edge of the vessel 21, so that the cover 10 can be installed more tightly when covering the box body 20.

[0032] As shown in FIG. 7, the base plate 23 has a mounting portion 232, and the mounting portion 232 allows the junction box 100 to be installed on another object such as a utility pole. In this embodiment, the connecting member 4 passes through the gap of the mounting portion 232 and is installed on the object.

[0033] Furthermore, a plurality of stabilizing and fixing portions 233 are provided on the base plate 23 in a protruding manner, and the plurality of stabilizing and fixing portions 233 are distributed around the mounting portion 232 . The plurality of stable fixing portions 233 are cylindrical in shape. In addition, the plurality of stable fixing parts 233 can be removed by using an external force, which can then become a connection port for the electric wire, through which the wire 1 can be passed and installed.

[0034] To sum up, the present invention has the following technical features: First, the present invention uses a wire container 21 to house the wire 1 and stores the wire 1 in a junction box 100, thereby solving the problem of the wire 1 being unsightly. Secondly, the junction box 100 of the present invention can prevent the wire 1 from being exposed and being affected by the external environment, thereby extending the service life of the wire 1. Third, this device can open the line connection ports in different positions according to actual needs, making it very flexible to use.
