[0013] The following describes an embodiment of the invention. As can be seen from Fig. 1 to Fig. 8, the electrical equipment storage box 1 of this embodiment includes a box body 10 with a door 11 and a side panel 12, a roof member 20 that covers the upper part of the box body 10 and has an intake / exhaust port 21 that can intake and exhaust air at a portion located outside the box body 10 in a plan view, and a roof cover member 30 that covers one end of the roof member 20. The electrical equipment storage box 1 also includes a light shielding plate attachment portion 91 that allows a light shielding plate 40 to be attached onto the roof cover member 30. This makes it possible to improve the workability when attaching the light shielding plate 40 to the upper part of the electrical equipment storage box 1.
[0014] Here, an outline of the electrical equipment storage box 1 of the embodiment will be described. The electrical equipment storage box 1 has a box body 10 with a door 11 and a side plate 12. The door 11 is provided at a necessary location on the side of the electrical equipment storage box 1, but in the embodiment, the electrical equipment storage box 1 has the door 11 in the front-rear direction and the side plate 12 on the left and right side. The upper part of the box body 10 formed in this manner is covered with a roof member 20. The roof member 20 of the embodiment has a portion that protrudes in the front-rear direction of the box body 10 in a plan view. In addition, the roof member 20 has an intake and exhaust port 21 that can intake and exhaust air at a portion located outside the box body 10 in a plan view. That is, in the embodiment, the intake and exhaust port 21 is provided on the front end side and the rear end side of the roof member 20. Therefore, the structure is such that intake and exhaust air can be performed above the door 11.
[0015] In the electric equipment storage box 1 of the embodiment, a roof cover member 30 is attached so as to cover one end of the roof member 20. The roof cover member 30 is formed narrower than the roof member 20, and is positioned above the roof member 20 so that a part of the roof cover member 30 overlaps with the roof member 20 in a plan view.
[0016] 1 and 2, roof cover members 30 formed to be narrower in the left-right direction than the roof member 20 are attached to the left and right ends of the roof member 20. The electrical equipment storage box 1 of the embodiment is provided with a shading plate attachment portion 91 for attaching a shading plate 40 that blocks sunlight. Since the shading plate 40 is supported by the roof cover member 30, a distance between the roof member 20 and the shading plate 40 can be secured. In the example shown in FIG. 1, the shading plate 40 is attached so as to span between the roof cover members 30 arranged at intervals in the left-right direction.
[0017] In the embodiment, the roof member 20 forms vertical sides 22 by bending the left and right ends of the roof member 20 so as to extend in the up-down direction. In the example shown in Fig. 3, a U-shaped member 93 is welded and fixed to the vertical sides 22. This U-shaped member 93 functions as a roof cover mounting part used to mount the roof cover member 30 to the roof member 20. In addition, the roof member 20 in the embodiment forms a horizontal side 23 that extends from the end of the vertical side 22 so as to form approximately 90 degrees with the vertical side 22.
[0018] One end of the roof member 20 is covered with a roof cover member 30, and the roof cover member 30 in this embodiment has an upper side 31 that spreads out above the roof member 20, and an inner side 32 that extends downward mainly from the end of the upper side 31 toward the roof member 20. In this example, the inner side 32 has a mounting hole 33 that is used to fix the roof cover member 30 to the roof member 20.
[0019] 3 to 6, the roof covering member 30 is placed so as to cover one end of the roof member 20, and a mounting bolt 94 is inserted into the mounting hole 33 and a hole provided in the roof cover mounting portion, and then tightened, so that the roof covering member 30 can be fixed to the roof member 20. In the embodiment, the vertical side 22 and horizontal side 23 of the roof member 20 are covered by the upper side 31 of the roof covering member 30 in a plan view.
[0020] 6, a boss stud that serves as the light blocking plate mounting portion 91 is welded and fixed to the upper side 31 of the roof covering member 30. In this example, the light blocking plate 40 is placed on the boss stud provided on the upper side 31 of the roof covering member 30 and fastened and fixed using a mounting bolt 95, thereby attaching the light blocking plate 40 to the roof covering member 30. Note that if the light blocking plate 40 is placed on the roof covering member 30, it is not necessarily necessary to place the light blocking plate 40 on the boss stud.
[0021] When attaching the light shielding plate 40 by post-installation, the roof cover member 30 formed narrower than the roof member 20 can be removed and replaced with a roof cover member 30 equipped with light shielding plate attachment parts 91 such as boss studs. The roof cover member 30 formed narrower than the roof member 20 can be attached and detached manually without using heavy machinery such as a crane, improving the workability when attaching the light shielding plate 40 to the top of the electrical equipment storage box 1. Furthermore, if the light shielding plate attachment parts 91 are attached to the electrical equipment storage box 1 in advance, the burden of the work of attaching the light shielding plate 40 by post-installation can be reduced.
[0022] Incidentally, it is preferable to arrange the light shielding plate attachment portion 91 at a position overlapping the roof cover member 30 and the roof member 20 in a plan view. In this way, even if rain or other water infiltrates from around the light shielding plate attachment portion 91 of the roof cover member 30, the roof member 20 located below can prevent the water from infiltrating into the inside of the box body 10. In addition, since the roof member 20 of a cubicle or the like generally has a structure that is inclined from the front to the rear, water that drips onto the roof member 20 flows backward and drips from the rear end. In the example shown in Figures 2 to 8, the boss stud that serves as the light shielding plate attachment portion 91 is provided on the upper side 31 of the roof cover member 30, and the roof member 20 is arranged below it.
[0023] It is also preferable to dispose the roof member 20 below the roof cover attachment portion. As in the example of the light shielding plate attachment portion 91, even if water such as rain seeps in from around the roof cover attachment portion, the roof member 20 located below can prevent the water from entering the inside of the box body 10, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the electrical equipment storage box 1.
[0024] It is also preferable to form a partitioned space with the roof cover member 30 and the roof member 20, and to attach the light shielding plate 40 above the space using the light shielding plate attachment part 91. The load of the light shielding plate 40 attached to the light shielding plate attachment part 91 can be supported by the part that forms the partition, and the strength of the electrical equipment storage box 1 can be maintained even when the light shielding plate 40 is attached.
[0025] In the example shown in Figures 5 to 8, when the roof covering member 30 is attached to the roof member 20, the horizontal sides 23 formed by bending the left and right ends of the roof member 20 abut against the upper side 31 of the roof covering member 30. In addition, the tip of the inner side 32 of the roof covering member 30 abuts against the roof member 20. By configuring the tips of the roof member 20 and the roof covering member 30 to abut against each other in this manner, a substantially cylindrical space extending in the front-to-rear direction of the electrical equipment storage box 1 is formed. Above this space, a light shielding plate 40 is attached to the roof covering member 30 using the light shielding plate mounting portion 91.
[0026] 9 to 11, mounting holes 33 for mounting the roof covering member 30 to the roof member 20 are provided on the upper side 31 of the roof covering member 30. A boss stud that serves as the light shielding plate mounting portion 91 is welded to the roof member 20, but the boss stud is also fixed to the roof member 20 at a position that corresponds to this mounting hole 33. In this example, the position of the mounting hole 33 is adjusted to match the position of the boss stud, and mounting bolts 95 are used to tighten and fix the roof covering member 30 to the roof member 20.
[0027] In this example, the left and right ends of the light shielding plate 40 are bent to form mounting edges 42 that are parallel to the light shielding surface 41. By aligning the light shielding plate 40 with the position of the boss stud that serves as the light shielding plate mounting portion 91, it is possible to fasten the light shielding plate 40 together with the roof cover member 30. In other words, the light shielding plate mounting portion 91 can also be used as a roof cover mounting portion for mounting the roof cover member 30 to the roof member 20. If the light shielding plate mounting portion 91 and the roof cover mounting portion are used in combination, even when the light shielding plate 40 is to be mounted later, the mounting bolts 95 of the roof cover mounting portion can be removed once, the light shielding plate 40 can be placed on the roof cover member 30, and then the mounting bolts 95 can be tightened and fixed again. Therefore, the light shielding plate 40 can be mounted without removing the roof member 20 or the roof cover member 30 from the box body 10.
[0028] In the examples so far, a boss stud has been used as the light shielding plate mounting portion 91. However, the light shielding plate mounting portion 91 does not have to be a boss stud. For example, a member such as a rectangular pillar-shaped support can also be used as the light shielding plate mounting portion 91. In the examples shown in Figures 12 to 14, the support used as the light shielding plate mounting portion 91 has a screw shape at one end for attaching the light shielding plate 40, and a step at the other end. More specifically, the support has a female screw shape at the top, and a step at the bottom.
[0029] The step is formed so as to accommodate the difference in height between the upper edge 31 and the roof member 20 when the roof covering member 30 is attached to the roof member 20. In the example shown in Figures 13 and 14, the support pillar is fastened and fixed to the roof cover mounting portion together with the roof cover using a mounting bolt 94. However, it is not necessary to be limited to this example, and the support pillar may be fixed to the roof covering member 30 by welding or the like.
[0030] In the example shown in Figures 12 to 14, the shading plate 40 is placed on top of the support pole attached to the roof cover member 30 and then fastened in place using mounting bolts 95, thereby attaching the shading plate 40.
[0031] Since a part of the support pillar can abut against the roof member 20, the load of the shading plate 40 acting on the support pillar can be distributed not only to the roof cover member 30 but also to the roof member 20. Furthermore, the strength of the electrical equipment storage box 1 can be maintained even when the shading plate 40 is attached.
[0032] The light shielding plate 40 may be large enough to cover the top surface of the box body 10 with one plate, but light shielding performance may be ensured by combining a plurality of light shielding plates 40. In this way, the size of a single light shielding plate 40 can be reduced, making it easier to attach the light shielding plate 40. In the example shown in Fig. 1, the light shielding plate 40 is provided separately for the front side of the electrical device storage box 1 and the rear side.
[0033] If multiple light shielding plates 40 are arranged on the same plane, the light shielding plates 40 can be made smaller, and deformation of the light shielding plates 40 due to the weight of snow when snow accumulates can be suppressed. In consideration of snow accumulation, when using a light shielding plate 40 that is approximately the front-to-back length of the electrical device storage box 1, it is preferable to provide a support member (not shown) below the light shielding plate 40 to suppress deformation due to load. This support member is preferably attached to the roof cover member 30 so as to span between the left and right roof cover members 30. If the support member is structured to be attached to the roof cover member 30, the efficiency of the installation work of the support member can be improved in the same way as the installation work of the light shielding plates 40.
[0034] Although the present invention has been described above by taking the embodiment as an example, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and can be embodied in various forms. For example, a solar panel may be attached as the light blocking plate.
[0035] Furthermore, in the embodiment, a single electrical device storage box has been described, but a plurality of electrical device storage boxes may be combined to form a larger box. [Explanation of symbols]
