Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to an electrical panel such as an electrical door of a disaster prevention equipment storage device such as a fire hydrant device equipped with electrical equipment such as a transmitter and a response indicator light, a disaster prevention equipment storage device having the electrical panel, and disaster prevention equipment equipped with the disaster prevention equipment storage device. [Background technology]
[0002] Conventionally, a fire hydrant device, which is a type of disaster prevention equipment storage device installed in tunnels on expressways and expressways, has a hydrant storage section in a housing with a fire hydrant door that can be opened and closed freely, in which hoses with nozzles attached to the ends and valves are stored, and a fire extinguisher storage section that has a fire extinguisher door that can be opened and closed freely, for example, has two fire extinguishers stored in it.Furthermore, between the fire hydrant door and the fire extinguisher door, an electrical door, which is an electrical panel with a door structure, is provided, and a red indicator light, a transmitter (fire notification device), and a response lamp (response indicator light) are provided on the electrical door, and a telephone jack is provided on the back side of the electrical door.
[0003] The red indicator light stays on at all times, allowing the location of the fire hydrant device to be identified from a distance. When a fire occurs and the transmitter is pressed to turn on the push button switch, a transmission signal is sent. A fire alarm is issued from the disaster prevention receiving panel installed in the electrical room, etc., which receives this signal, and a response signal is sent from the disaster prevention receiving panel. When the fire hydrant device receives this signal, the response lamp lights up and the red indicator light flashes.
[0004] In conventional fire hydrant devices, the position of the electrical equipment is not changed, and the wiring cables connecting the terminal box installed on the back of the fire extinguisher storage section adjacent to the electrical equipment door and the electrical equipment are of approximately constant length, so they are laid out inside the housing in a bundled state using binding bands known as cable ties. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2016-055073 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2018-139704 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0006] In recent years, the installation height of fire hydrant devices from the roadway surface has changed depending on the characteristics and design of the tunnel body, such as the shape. In such cases, if the position of the transmitter installed in the fire hydrant device is not changed, and the transmitter height does not fall within the range specified by the Fire Service Act, it is necessary to review the shape, detailed design, and manufacture of the fire hydrant device, including the electric door, each time.
[0007] In such cases, the wiring route and fixing method of the associated cables must also be changed to accommodate the new electric door, which can lead to inefficient and complicated problems.In addition, although the height of the transmitter satisfies the regulations of the Fire Service Act, the operating position is too high for the operator standing on the road surface of the guard's passage, making it difficult for some people to operate.
[0008] Furthermore, when a tunnel's grade is upgraded or downgraded, a supervisor's walkway may be added and the height of the road surface where the operator stands may change. In such cases, it is desirable that the location of the transmitters be within the range specified by the Fire Service Act, without having to replace the fire hydrant equipment, including the electric doors, with new ones.
[0009] To solve this problem, the applicant has proposed an electrical door that allows the placement of electrical equipment such as transmitters and response lamps to be easily and simply changed in accordance with the installation status of disaster prevention equipment storage devices such as fire hydrant devices and the operator's standing position, etc. (Patent Application No. 2021-049525).
[0010] In electrical doors that allow the placement position of such electrical equipment to be changed, the length of the wiring cable connecting the terminal block to the electrical equipment changes depending on the placement position of the electrical equipment, so wiring cables of a length with some slack are prepared, assuming the placement position of the electrical equipment to be the longest, and the cables are laid out inside the housing in a bundled state using cable ties or the like.
[0011] However, if the placement of electrical equipment is changed, it is necessary to cut the cable ties, adjust the length of the wiring cables, and then re-bind the cables with the cable ties, thereby adjusting the wiring route within the housing.
[0012] As a result, at manufacturing sites such as factories, it is not possible to decide on a common work procedure for laying out distribution cables, and different work procedures must be decided and selected depending on the location of the electrical equipment, which makes the wiring work complicated and time-consuming.
[0013] Furthermore, when working inside a tunnel, it is expected that the work of laying wiring cables inside the enclosure due to changes in the location of electrical equipment will become even more difficult due to the working environment, and since work inside a tunnel involves road closures and lane restrictions, the length of work time required to change the location of electrical equipment will become an issue.
[0014] The present invention aims to provide an electrical panel that enables wiring cable installation work associated with changing the placement position of electrical equipment to be performed simply and easily, thereby improving workability, a disaster prevention equipment storage device having the electrical panel, and disaster prevention equipment equipped with the disaster prevention equipment storage device. [Means for solving the problem]

[0020] (Disaster prevention equipment storage device, disaster prevention equipment) The present invention is characterized by a disaster prevention equipment storage device having the above-mentioned electrical panel, or disaster prevention equipment equipped with the disaster prevention equipment storage device. [Effects of the Invention]
[0021] (Effect of electrical panel) According to the present invention, an electrical panel of a disaster prevention equipment storage device on which a plurality of electrical devices are installed comprises: a panel main body on which the electrical devices are arranged so that their positions can be changed; wiring that connects the electrical devices to terminal blocks arranged in predetermined positions on the disaster prevention equipment storage device; and a wiring storage section arranged on the back side of the panel main body, in which the intermediate portions of the wiring are slackened and stored so that they can be easily inserted and removed. Since the length of the wiring from the terminal blocks to the electrical devices can be changed in response to changes in the position of the electrical devices, for example, if the installation height of the electrical devices from the road surface on which an operator stands changes and the position of the electrical devices is changed, the intermediate portions of the wiring are stored in a slack state in the wiring storage section, providing redundancy in the wiring length. Therefore, if the electrical devices are relocated to a position away from the terminal blocks, the shortfall in the wiring can be pulled out of the wiring storage section to increase the wiring length, and on the other hand, if the electrical devices are relocated to a position closer to the terminal blocks, the excess wiring can be pushed into the wiring storage section to shorten the wiring length. By moving the wiring in and out of the wiring storage section, the wiring length can be simply and easily changed in response to changes in the position of the electrical devices.
[0022] Furthermore, since the wiring connecting the wiring storage section and the terminal block is not affected by changes in the placement of the electrical equipment, even if the wiring is tied with cable ties or the like and laid out inside the housing, there is no need to cut the cable ties to change the wiring length or change the wiring path inside the housing, allowing for efficient work.
[0023] (Effect of the first wiring storage section) The first wiring storage section comprises a box-shaped storage body having a height corresponding to a predetermined range in the height direction of the panel body, a first opening formed with a predetermined width within a predetermined range in the height direction on the surface of the storage body facing the panel body, an elastic closing member that closes the first opening and has a notch formed within a predetermined range in the height direction for inserting wiring from the electrical equipment, and a second opening formed on the other surface of the storage body other than the surface on which the first opening is formed, for inserting wiring from the terminal block.Therefore, since the wiring is stored in a slackened state in the middle, the wiring length can be simply and easily changed in response to changes in the placement position of the electrical equipment by inserting or removing the wiring in or from the wiring storage section.In addition, by forming a notch in the elastic closing member that closes the first opening formed in the box-shaped storage body and inserting the wiring to the electrical equipment through the notch, the inserted wiring is held in place by being clamped by the elastic force of the notch, making it easy to insert or remove wiring from the electrical equipment and also enabling the wiring length changed by inserting or removing the wiring in or from the wiring to be reliably maintained.
[0024] (Effect of the second wiring storage section) The second wiring storage section includes a box-shaped storage body having a height corresponding to a predetermined range in the height direction of the panel body; a first opening formed with a predetermined width in a predetermined range in the height direction on a surface of the storage body facing the panel body of the storage body; a plurality of wiring fixing members provided corresponding to each electrical device, the wiring fixing members being elastic plate members having cutouts formed therein for inserting wiring from the electrical device and arranged to be movable in the height direction along the first opening; and a second opening formed on the other surface of the storage body other than the surface on which the first openings are formed, for inserting wiring from the terminal block. Therefore, the wiring fixing members provided with elastic plate members having cutouts for inserting wiring for each electrical device are arranged to be movable along the first openings formed in the box-shaped storage body, and the positions of the wiring fixing members can be changed in response to changes in the positions of the electrical devices. Therefore, changes in the wiring length from the electrical device that pass through the elastic cutouts of the wiring fixing members can be absorbed by changes in the slack of the wiring within the storage body without changing the length of the wiring from the electrical device that passes through the elastic cutouts of the wiring fixing members, and there is no need to change the wiring layout between the terminal block and the electrical device via the wiring storage section.
[0025] (Effect of the third wiring storage section) In addition, the third wiring storage section comprises a cylindrical body made of a hard elastic body having a height corresponding to a predetermined range in the height direction of the panel body and having a first opening having a predetermined width formed in a predetermined range in the height direction on the outer peripheral surface facing the panel body, a closing member made of a soft elastic body that closes the first opening and has a notch formed in a predetermined range in the height direction for inserting wiring from the electrical equipment, and a second opening formed on the upper end surface of the cylindrical body for inserting wiring from the terminal block.Therefore, in addition to the effect of being able to simply and easily change the wiring length in response to changes in the placement position of the electrical equipment, similar to the first wiring storage section, the wiring storage section as a whole is cylindrical, making it possible to reduce the placement space on the back side of the panel.
[0026] (Effect of electrical equipment) The electrical equipment also includes a red indicator light to indicate the installation location of the disaster prevention equipment storage device, a transmitter to send a fire report to the receiver, a response indicator light to display a response from the receiver to the fire report, and a telephone jack located on the back of the panel body for connecting an emergency phone; at least the transmitter, response indicator light, and telephone jack are arranged on the panel body so that their positions can be changed, making it possible to simply and easily change the wiring length in response to a change in the position of at least one of the red indicator light, transmitter, response indicator light, or telephone jack by moving the wiring in and out of the wiring storage section.
[0027] (Disaster prevention equipment storage device, effectiveness of disaster prevention equipment) The disaster prevention equipment storage device having the electrical panel and the disaster prevention equipment equipped with the disaster prevention equipment storage device have the same effects as the aforementioned electrical panel, so their explanation will be omitted.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0029] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of an electrical panel according to the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiment.
[0030] [Basic concept of the embodiment] First, the basic concept of the embodiment will be described. The embodiment generally relates to an electrical panel of a disaster prevention equipment storage device in which predetermined electrical equipment is arranged, and more specifically, to an electrical door of a fire hydrant device installed in a tunnel, which has a door structure and is equipped with a red indicator light, a transmitter, a telephone jack, and a response indicator light as predetermined electrical equipment.
[0031] Here, the term "electrical panel" refers to a panel that is installed in a disaster prevention equipment storage device and on which electrical equipment for performing operations and displaying information related to disaster prevention is arranged and attached, and is a concept that includes an electrical door that has a door structure that can be opened and closed and is installed in the disaster prevention equipment storage device. In the case where the disaster prevention equipment storage device is a fire hydrant device installed in a tunnel, the term "electrical door" refers to a door that is installed in the fire hydrant device and is equipped with a red indicator light, a transmitter, a telephone jack, and an answering indicator light as specified electrical equipment.
[0032] Here, a "red indicator light" is an indicator light that indicates the location of a fire hydrant device. A "transmitter" is a device for reporting a fire, and is a concept that includes an operating switch for operating a fire report. A "response indicator light" is an indicator light that responds to a fire report from the transmitter with a signal from the receiver, and is a concept that includes a response lamp. A "telephone jack" is a device located on the back of an electrical door, and is used to connect an emergency telephone for making calls.
[0033] The electrical panel of this embodiment is composed of a panel body, wiring, and a wiring storage section. Here, the "panel body" refers to a device on which electrical equipment is mounted so that its position can be changed. For example, a red indicator light is mounted at the top of the panel surface of the panel body, and its position is fixed and cannot be changed. In contrast, the position of the transmitter can be changed depending on the installation status of the disaster prevention equipment storage device, such as a fire hydrant, the operator's standing position, etc. Furthermore, the positions of the response indicator light and telephone jack can be changed in accordance with changes in the position of the transmitter.
[0034] Furthermore, "wiring" refers to an electric wire connecting electrical equipment installed in the panel body to a terminal block housed in a terminal box located in a predetermined position in a disaster prevention equipment storage device such as a fire hydrant. Here, "electric wire" legally refers to an electric conductor used to transmit high-current electricity, an electric conductor coated with an insulator, or an electric conductor coated with an insulator and protected by a protective coating, but does not include those used to transmit low-current electricity such as in communication circuits. In this embodiment, "electric wire" refers to an "electric conductor coated with an insulator and protected by a protective coating," and generally refers to an "insulated electric wire," "cable," or "wiring cable" used in power circuits of 100 V or more, and is an electric wire that is strong and durable.
[0035] The "wiring storage section" is located on the back side of the panel body and stores the wiring in a loosened manner, allowing it to be easily inserted and removed. By inserting and removing the wiring, the length of the wiring can be changed in response to changes in the placement position of the electrical equipment.
[0036] The wiring housing section of this embodiment has three different configurations: a first wiring housing section, a second wiring housing section, and a third wiring housing section.
[0037] (First wiring storage section) The "first wiring storage section" is composed of a storage body, a first opening, an elastic closing member, and a second opening. Here, the "storage body" is a box-shaped storage body having a height corresponding to a predetermined range in the height direction of the panel body on which the electrical equipment is arranged, and the "first opening" is an opening formed with a predetermined width within a predetermined range in the height direction of the surface of the storage body facing the panel body.
[0038] Here, the "elastic closing member" refers to an elastic member that closes the first opening of the storage body and has a notch formed in a predetermined range in the height direction for inserting wiring from the electrical equipment. The term "elastic member" includes the term "elastomer member." "Elastomer" is a general term for elastic polymeric materials, and includes, for example, rubber (natural rubber, synthetic rubber) and resin-based elastomers (urethane rubber, silicone rubber, fluororubber, etc.). Therefore, the term "elastic closing member" includes the term "closing elastomer member."
[0039] Here, the "second opening" refers to an opening formed on another surface of the storage body other than the surface on which the first opening is formed, for example, on the upper end surface, for inserting wiring from the terminal block.
[0040] (Second wiring storage area) The "second wiring storage section" is composed of a storage body, a first opening, a wiring fixing member, and a second opening. Here, the "storage body," "first opening," and "second opening" are the same as those of the first wiring storage section. The "wiring fixing member" is an elastic plate member provided for each electrical device, with a notch formed therein for inserting the wiring from the electrical device, and arranged so as to be movable in the height direction along the first opening. The term "elastic plate member" is a concept that includes the term "elastomer plate member."
[0041] (Third wiring storage area) The "third wiring storage section" is composed of a tubular body, a first opening, a closing member, and a second opening. Here, the "tubular body" refers to a cylindrical member, for example, made of a hard elastic body having a height corresponding to a predetermined range in the height direction of the panel main body on which the electrical equipment is arranged, and having a first opening having a predetermined width formed within a predetermined range in the height direction of the outer peripheral surface facing the panel main body. Note that the "hard elastic body" is a concept that includes "hard elastomer," and is a body that is strong enough to maintain its tubular shape with its own rigidity.
[0042] Here, the "first opening" refers to an opening of a predetermined width formed in a predetermined range in the height direction on the surface of the storage body facing the panel body, and the "closing member" refers to a member made of a soft elastic material that closes the first opening of the cylindrical body and has a notch formed in a predetermined range in the height direction for inserting wiring from an electrical device. The term "soft elastic material" encompasses "soft elastomer" and "soft rubber." The "second opening" refers to an opening formed on another surface of the storage body other than the surface on which the first opening is formed, such as the upper end surface of the cylindrical body, for inserting wiring from a terminal block.
[0043] Specific embodiments are described below. In the specific embodiments described below, the "disaster prevention equipment storage device" is a "fire hydrant device installed in a tunnel," the "electrical panel" is an "electrical door," and the "electrical equipment" installed on the electric door of the fire hydrant device includes a "red indicator light," a "transmitter," and an "answer lamp" that functions as a response indicator lamp. Furthermore, a "telephone jack" is provided on the rear surface of the door (rear surface of the panel), and the positions of the transmitter, the answer lamp, and the telephone jack are changeable. The "wiring storage section" is described separately as a "first wiring storage section," a "second wiring storage section," and a "third wiring storage section." Furthermore, the "panel body" of the electrical panel corresponds to the "door body" of the electric door, and the "panel front surface" and "panel rear surface" of the panel body correspond to the "door front surface" and "door rear surface" of the door body.

[0045] [a. Fire hydrant equipment] A fire hydrant device for a tunnel, which is an example of a disaster prevention equipment storage device of this embodiment, will be described in more detail below. In this description, reference will be made to Fig. 1, which is an explanatory diagram showing a fire hydrant device for a tunnel. Fig. 1(A) is an explanatory diagram showing the installed state of the fire hydrant device as viewed from the cross section of the tunnel, and Fig. 1(B) is an explanatory diagram showing the installed state of the fire hydrant device inside the tunnel as viewed from the longitudinal section of the tunnel.
[0046] 1, the X, Y, and Z directions are directions that are perpendicular to each other. Specifically, when looking at the front face of the fire hydrant device 10 from the front, the X direction is the left-right direction, the Y direction is the up-down direction, and the Z direction is the front-to-back direction. In addition, the +X side in the X direction is the right side, the -X side is the left side, the +Y side in the Y direction is the upper side, the -Y side is the lower side, and the +Z side in the Z direction is the front side, and the -Z side is the rear side. In this respect, the X, Y, and Z directions are the same in FIGS. 2 to 24, which illustrate embodiments of the present invention.
[0047] As shown in FIG. 1, the fire hydrant device 10 is divided into a housing 10a for housing the fire hydrant and a housing 10b for housing the fire extinguisher. A stand 11 is attached to the underside of the fire hydrant device 10. Decorative frames 13a and 13b are attached to the front of the housings 10a and 10b.
[0048] (a1. Overview of fire hydrant equipment) The door opening of the decorative frame 13a on the fire hydrant storage section side is divided into upper and lower sections, and a forward-leaning fire hydrant door 14 that opens downward on hinges 15a is installed at the bottom of the door opening, and a maintenance door 17 that opens upward on hinges 15b is installed at the top of the door opening, and inside the fire hydrant storage section, fire hoses with nozzles and valves including fire hydrant valves are stored.
[0049] On the left side of the door opening of decorative frame 13b provided on the fire extinguisher storage section side, there is provided fire extinguisher door 18 that opens sideways to the left on hinge 15d, and the fire extinguisher storage section inside can store, for example, two fire extinguishers. In addition, there is provided a viewing window 22 on the underside of fire extinguisher door 18, so that it is possible to check from outside whether the fire extinguisher is stored or not.
[0050] (a2. Electric door) On the right side of the door opening of the decorative frame 13b, there is provided an electrical door 12, which is an electrical panel having a door structure that opens sideways to the right on a hinge 15c. The electrical door 12 is provided with electrical equipment such as a red indicator light 20, a transmitter 24, an SOS display board 27, and an answer lamp 26, and a telephone jack is provided inside the housing of the electrical door 12.
[0051] The red indicator light 20 is always lit so that the location of the fire hydrant device 10 can be seen from a distance. The red indicator light 20 is located at the top of the front of the electrically equipped door 12, and its location will not change.
[0052] In this embodiment, the transmitter 24, SOS display board 27, and response lamp 26 are disposed on the upper side of the front door of the electrical equipment door 12. The positions of the transmitter 24, SOS display board 27, and response lamp 26 may be changed to the lower side of the front door of the electrical equipment door 12, and to enable this change in position, a transmitter placement opening 24a and a response lamp placement opening 26a are formed on the lower side of the front door of the electrical equipment door 12, and are closed by closing plates 240, 260, respectively. Four screw holes are formed on the door surface between the transmitter placement opening 24a and the response lamp placement opening 26a for placing the SOS display board 27, but since these are unused, they are closed by screws 270.
[0053] 2, the transmitter 24, the telephone jack 25, and the answer lamp 26 are attached to a base member 46, for example. Note that FIG. 2(A) shows the front view, and FIG. 2(B) shows the side view.
[0054] Therefore, by installing the base member 46 on the upper back side of the electrical door 12, the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 are arranged on the upper front side of the electrical door 12, as shown in Fig. 1. Also, by moving the base member 46 to the lower back side of the electrical door 12, the arrangement positions of the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 can be changed to the lower front side of the electrical door 12. Note that the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 may be arranged and installed separately without being attached to the base member 46.
[0055] When a fire breaks out and the transmitter 24 is operated to turn on the push button switch, a transmission signal is sent. A fire alarm is issued from the disaster prevention receiving panel installed in the electrical room or the like upon receiving this signal, and a response signal is sent from the disaster prevention receiving panel. When the fire hydrant device 10 receives this signal, the red indicator light 20 flashes and the response lamp 26 lights up.
[0056] (a3. Internal structure of fire hydrant device) The internal structure of the fire hydrant device will be described in more detail. As shown in Figures 3 to 5, the interior of the housing 10a, which serves as the fire hydrant storage section 16, is divided into a valve storage section 16a and a hose storage section 16b. Here, Figure 3 shows the internal structure from the front with the hydrant door and maintenance door open and the fire extinguisher door removed, Figure 4 is a cross section shown by the cutting line aa in Figure 3, and Figure 5 shows a side view of Figure 4 with a part broken away.
[0057] In the valve storage section 16a, a water supply piping 31 drawn in from outside is connected to a water supply hydrant 30, and the water supply piping 31 branches downward and is connected to a fire hose 38 via a hydrant valve 32 and an automatic pressure regulating valve 34. The hydrant valve 32 is opened and closed by a hydrant valve opening / closing lever 36, and the hydrant valve 32 is remotely opened and closed by a known wire link mechanism that opens and closes the hydrant valve opening / closing lever 36. When the hydrant valve opening / closing lever 36 is opened or closed, a pump start interlock switch 44 provided on the operation box is turned on and off. In addition, a pump start switch 42 used by the fire brigade is provided on the upper right of the hydrant 30.
[0058] A hose storage frame 35 is provided in the hose storage section 16b, and a fire hose 38 is pulled in from below and stored in a state of being wound inward clockwise or counterclockwise. A nozzle 40 is attached to the tip of the fire hose 38 pulled out through a hose guide 37, and the nozzle 40 is held detachably in a nozzle holder 41.
[0059] The inside of the housing 10b (on the fire extinguisher door 18 side) is a fire extinguisher storage section 19, which stores two fire extinguishers 29, as shown in Fig. 4. Terminal boxes 28a and 28b are provided on the rear surface of the fire extinguisher storage section 19.
[0060] A first wiring storage section 50 is arranged on the rear surface of the electrical door 12, which is arranged adjacent to the fire extinguisher door 18 of the fire extinguisher storage section 19, by a support pole 52. The first wiring storage section 50 is connected to the terminal block of the terminal box 28a and the electrical door 20 The wiring cable that connects the red indicator light 20 is inserted through the terminal block of the terminal box 28b and the electrical door. 20 The wiring cables that connect the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 are inserted through the first wiring storage section 50. The portions of each wiring cable that pass through the first wiring storage section 50 are stored in a loose state, and when the wiring length changes due to a change in the placement positions of the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26, the change in wiring length can be accommodated by moving the wiring cable in and out of the first wiring storage section 50.
[0061] 4 and 5, a cable rack 48 is installed in the fire hydrant storage section 16 inside the housing 10a. The cable rack 48 is arranged in the left-right direction in an area extending from approximately the center of the valve storage section 16a, through the hose storage section 16b, and just before the partition wall 21 separating it from the fire extinguisher storage section 19, and a wire passage opening 47 is formed in the partition wall 21 opposite the left end of the cable rack 48.
[0062] The cables pulled into the valve storage section 16a from the outside and the cables from the pump start switch 42 and the pump start interlock switch 44 are inserted through the entrance at the right end of the cable rack 48, passed through the cable rack 48, pulled out to the fire extinguisher storage section 19 side, and connected to the terminal box 28a or the terminal box 28b.
[0063] (a4. Fire hydrant device cable wiring system) Housing of fire hydrant device 10 10The cable wiring system of the electrical equipment arranged in housing 10b will be described in more detail below. As shown in Fig. 6, the electrical equipment door 12 of housing 10b is provided with a red indicator light 20, a transmitter 24, an answer lamp 26, and a telephone jack 25 as electrical equipment. The red indicator light 20 is connected to a corresponding terminal on a terminal block 280a of terminal box 28a, and the transmitter 24, the answer lamp 26, and the telephone jack 25 are connected to corresponding terminals on a terminal block 280b of terminal box 28b.
[0064] In addition, the pump start switch 42 and the pump start interlock switch 44 provided in the valve storage section 16a of the housing 10a are connected to the terminal block 280b of the terminal box 28b provided in the housing 10b by cable wiring passing through the cable rack 48.
[0065] Furthermore, a high-voltage cable 53 that supplies AC 100V power is drawn from the outside into the valve storage section 16a of the housing 10a. The high-voltage cable 53 is drawn out to the housing 10b side through the cable rack 48 and connected to a terminal of the terminal block 280a of the terminal box 28a, and the wiring cable from the terminal block 280a is then connected to the red indicator light 20 through the first wiring storage section 50 shown in FIG.
[0066] Furthermore, a low-voltage cable 55, which is a multi-core cable that supplies DC 48V power, is drawn from the outside into the valve storage section 16a of the housing 10a. The low-voltage cable 55 is drawn out to the housing 10b side through the cable rack 48 and connected to a terminal of the terminal block 280b of the terminal box 28b, and then the wiring cable from the terminal block 280b passes through the first wiring storage section 50 shown in Figure 4 and is connected to the telephone jack 25, answer lamp 26, and transmitter 24 of the electrical door 12.
[0067] Although the low-voltage cable 55 is a single multi-core cable, in the cable wiring system of FIG. 6 it is represented as a telephone cable 55a, an answer lamp cable 55b, a transmitter cable 55c, and a switch cable 55d.
[0068] 7, the pump start switch 42 and the pump start interlocking switch 44 are connected to the terminals of the terminal block 280b as a parallel circuit in which the wiring of the pump start interlocking switch 44 is connected to the terminal portion of the pump start switch 42. The terminal of the terminal block 280b to which the wiring of the pump start switch 42 and the pump start interlocking switch 44 is connected is connected to the terminal to which the wiring of the transmitter 24 is connected by a crossover wiring, so that the wiring of the pump start switch 42 and the pump start interlocking switch 44 is connected to the wiring of the transmitter 24.
[0069] [b. First wiring storage section] The first wiring storage section disposed on the rear side of the electrical door will be described in more detail with reference to Figs. 8 to 10. Fig. 8 shows a wiring structure using the first wiring storage section when electrical equipment is disposed above the electrical door, Fig. 9 shows the first wiring storage section in isolation, and Fig. 10 shows the first wiring storage section in partial cross-section in side (A), front (B), and plan cross-section (C). Note that the wiring structure in Fig. 8 shows the interior of the wiring storage section in a see-through state.
[0070] (b1. Structure of the first wiring storage section) The structure of the first wiring storage section 50 is arbitrary, but for example, as shown in Figures 9 and 10(A)(B), it is composed of a storage body 70, a first opening 72, an elastomer closing member 76 that functions as an elastic closing member, and a second opening 74.
[0071] The storage body 70 is a box-shaped member that is long in the height direction and has a height corresponding to a predetermined range in the height direction of the door body 12a (see Figure 8) of the electrical door 12 in which the red indicator light 20, the transmitter 24, the telephone jack 25, and the answer lamp 26 are arranged, and mounting plates 80 having mounting holes 82 are formed integrally at the upper and lower ends of the surface facing the rear surface of the electrical door 12, and is manufactured by, for example, sheet metal processing.
[0072] The first opening 72 is formed with a predetermined width in a predetermined range corresponding to the arrangement of the electrical equipment in the height direction on the surface (front) of the storage body 70 facing the door back surface of the door body 12a. As shown in Fig. 10(C), an elastomer closing member 76 is fixed to the back side of the first opening 72 by adhesive or the like to close the opening. The elastomer closing member 76 that closes the first opening 72 has a cutout 78 formed in a predetermined range in the height direction that penetrates in the thickness direction and allows wiring to the electrical equipment to pass through.
[0073] Second opening 74 is used to insert the wiring cables from terminal boxes 28a, 28b, and can be on any surface other than the surface on which first opening 72 is formed, but in this embodiment, since the wiring to terminal boxes 28a, 28b is routed through the upper part of the housing, it is formed on the upper end surface of storage body 70.
[0074] (b2. Wiring using the first wiring storage section) The wiring between the terminal boxes 28a, 28b using the first wiring housing portion 50 and the electrical equipment arranged on the electrical door 12 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG.
[0075] The first wiring storage section 50 is attached and fixed by a support pole 52 and screws 54 at a position spaced a predetermined distance from the rear surface of the electrical equipment door 12 so as not to interfere with the placement of electrical equipment.
[0076] The wiring cable 56 that connects the red indicator light 20 arranged on the electrical door 12 to the terminal block of the terminal box 28a is laid through the first wiring storage section 50, and on the electrical door 12 side, it is inserted into the cutout section 78 near the red indicator light 20 of the first opening 72 shown in Figure 9, and the wiring cable 56 that has passed through the cutout section 78 is held in the inserted position by the elastic restoring force of the elastomer closing member 76.
[0077] In addition, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 that connect the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 arranged in the electrical door 12 to the terminal block of the terminal box 28b are also laid out through the first wiring storage section 50, and on the electrical door 12 side, they are inserted into the cutouts 78 near the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 of the first opening 72 shown in Figure 9, and the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 that pass through the cutouts 78 are held in the inserted position by the elastic restoring force of the elastomer closing member 76.
[0078] Additionally, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 are slackened in the middle portion stored in the first wiring storage section 50 to form slack wiring sections 580, 600, 620. When the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 arranged on the upper side of the electrical door 12 are relocated to the lower side of the electrical door 12, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 can be pulled out toward the electrical door 12, thereby accommodating an increase in wiring length.
[0079] Furthermore, the wiring cables 56, 58, 60, 62 are not bound and are in a free state between the first wiring housing section 50 and the electrical equipment door 12, and the wiring length can be changed. On the other hand, the wiring is laid between the first wiring housing section 50 and the terminal boxes 28a, 28b in a bound state with a cable tie 66, and the wiring length cannot be changed.
[0080] (b3. Change in the location of electrical equipment) The wiring when the arrangement of the electrical equipment arranged on the electrical door is changed will be described in more detail below.
[0081] Figure 11 is an explanatory diagram showing a fire hydrant device in which the electrical equipment has been relocated to the underside of the electrical door, and the positions of the transmitter 24, SOS display board 27, response lamp 26, and telephone jack 25 on the backside of the door, which were previously located on the upper side of the electrical door 12 shown in Figure 1, have been changed to the underside of the electrical door 12. The previous transmitter placement opening 24a and response lamp placement opening 26a, which became unused due to the relocation of the transmitter 24 and response lamp 26, are closed with closing plates 240, 260, and the four screw holes for placing the SOS display board 27 are closed with screws 270 because they are unused.
[0082] Fig. 12 shows a wiring structure using the first wiring storage section when the electrical equipment is relocated to the underside of the electrical door. As shown in Fig. 12, when the positions of the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 are relocated to the underside of the electrical door 12, the wiring lengths of the wiring cables 58, 60, and 62 connecting the terminal boxes 28, 28b and the electrical equipment become longer. However, before the relocation, the wiring cables 58, 60, and 62 have slackened wiring portions 580, 600, and 620 formed in the first wiring storage section 50 as shown in Fig. 8, and the wiring length is increased by pulling out the slack wiring portions 580, 600, and 620 (tensioning the slack).
[0083] This increase in wiring length due to a change in the location of the electrical equipment is absorbed by first wiring storage section 50 and does not affect the wiring from terminal boxes 28a, 28b, and the wiring length can be extended while it remains tied with cable ties 66. Therefore, even if the location of the electrical equipment is changed, there is no need to perform wiring work such as cutting cable ties to change the wiring length or changing the wiring route, making it possible to simply and easily perform wiring work that corresponds to a change in the location of the electrical equipment.
[0084] [c. Second wiring storage area] The second wiring storage section disposed on the rear side of the electrical equipment door will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. Here, Figure 13 shows a wiring structure using a second wiring storage section when electrical equipment is placed above the electrical door, Figure 14 shows the second wiring storage section from the front (A) and side (B), Figure 15 shows the arrangement portion of the wiring fixing member provided in the second wiring storage section from the top (A) and front (B), Figure 16 shows the storage body from the front (A), side (B) and top (C) in partial cross section, Figure 17 shows the assembled and disassembled state of the wiring fixing member, Figure 18 shows the wiring fixing member from the front (A), side (B), top (C), back (D) and front cross section (E), Figure 19 shows the box frame body of the wiring fixing member in an expanded state, and Figure 20 shows the holding of the wiring cable by the wiring fixing member from the front side (A) and back side (B).
[0085] (c1. Structure of the second wiring storage section) The second wiring storage section 100 may have any structure, but for example, as shown in Figures 14(A)(B) and 15, it is composed of a storage main body 102, multiple wiring fixing members 120 corresponding to electrical equipment (e.g., red indicator light 20, transmitter 24, telephone jack 25 and answer lamp 26), and a second opening 106.
[0086] As shown in FIG. 16, the storage body 102 is a box-shaped member that is long in the vertical direction and has a height corresponding to a predetermined range in the vertical direction of the door body 12a of the electrical door 12. Mounting plates 112 having mounting holes 114 are integrally formed at the upper and lower ends of the surface facing the rear surface of the electrical door 12, and the storage body 102 is manufactured by, for example, sheet metal processing.
[0087] The first opening 104 is formed with a predetermined width within a predetermined range corresponding to the arrangement of the electrical equipment in the height direction on the surface (front surface) of the storage body 102 facing the rear surface of the door body 12a. Guide rails 108 are arranged in the up-down direction on both sides of the first opening 104, and a pair of left and right through holes 110 are formed at a predetermined interval above and below the guide rails 108 in the up-down direction for attaching and fixing a wiring fixing member 120 corresponding to the arrangement position of the electrical equipment.
[0088] The through holes 110 are provided for attaching and fixing wiring fixing members 120 corresponding to the red indicator light 20, transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 in that order from the top, and the holes below are provided for attaching and fixing wiring fixing members 120 corresponding to the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 when they are relocated to the bottom of the electrical door 12.
[0089] The wiring fixing member 120 is attached and fixed to the guide rail 108 of the storage body 102 by aligning the screw hole 132 of the rail fixing portion 130 formed on the upper back side of the wiring fixing member 120 with the through hole 110 of the guide rail 108 while the rail engagement portion 128 is engaged with the guide rail 108, as shown in Figures 15(A) and (B).
[0090] It is also possible to configure the wiring fixing member 120 so that the rail fixing portion 130 is positioned on the front side (front surface) of the guide rail 108 when the rail engaging portion 128 is engaged with the guide rail 108, and to use the rail fixing portion 130 side as a through hole and the guide rail 108 side as a screw hole into which the screw 135 is screwed. In this case, the wiring fixing member 120 can be moved to any position on the guide rail 108 and fixed by screwing in the screw 135.
[0091] The wiring fixing member 120 is made up of a metal plate of a box frame body 122 shown in an exploded view in Fig. 19. The exploded box frame body 122 has a flat portion 122a, a front portion 122b having a front opening 144 cut out in an inverted L shape, a back portion 122c having a rear opening 146 cut out, a left side portion 122d, Screw 17 and 18 is manufactured by sheet metal processing, having a right side surface 122e which is the upper portion in which a hole 138 is formed. A pair of rail engagement portions 128 for engaging with the guide rails 108 of the storage main body 102 are arranged vertically on the back surface of the box frame main body 122. A rail fixing portion 130 extends from the upper end side of this rail engagement portion 128, and a through hole 132 is formed therein.
[0092] 17, an L-shaped rotating frame 134 that forms the bottom and right side of the box frame is rotatably attached to the lower end of the left side of the box frame main body 122 by a hinge 136. An elongated hole 142 is formed at the end of the right side, and when the rotating frame 134 is closed to the underside of the box frame main body 122, it can be fixed by a screw 140 through the elongated hole 142 into a screw hole 138 formed in the upper right end of the box frame main body 122.
[0093] A rectangular elastomer plate member 124 that functions as an elastic plate member is assembled and positioned within the box frame body 122 as indicated by arrow 125. A notch 126 is formed in the elastomer plate member 124, penetrating from the front to the rear, in the horizontal direction from the center of the right side surface, for passing cable wiring to electrical equipment, for example, cable wiring 58 to the red indicator lamp 20.
[0094] To assemble the elastomer plate member 124, for example, with the wiring cable 58 inserted through the notch 126, it is fitted into the box frame main body 122 from diagonally below as shown by arrow 125, and then the rotating frame 134 is pressed against it from below and screws 140 passed through the elastomer plate member 124 are tightened into the screw holes 138, thereby fixing the elastomer plate member 124 in a state where it is pressed upward by the rotating frame 134. As the rotating frame 134 is fixed in place, the elastomer plate member 124 is pressed against the box frame main body 122, and as shown in Figure 20, the wiring cable 58 inserted through the notch 126 is subjected to a resilient force and is securely held in place.
[0095] As shown in Figure 16, the second opening 106 of the storage body 102 is used to insert the wiring cables from the terminal boxes 28a, 28b, and can be formed on any surface other than the surface on which the first opening 104 is formed. However, in this embodiment, the wiring to the terminal boxes 28a, 28b is routed through the upper part of the housing, so it is formed on the upper end surface of the storage body 102.
[0096] (c2. Wiring using the second wiring storage section) The wiring between the terminal boxes 28a, 28b using the second wiring housing portion 100 and the electrical equipment arranged on the electrical door 12 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG.
[0097] The second wiring storage section 100 is attached and fixed by a support pole 52 and screws 54 at a position spaced a predetermined distance from the rear surface of the electrical equipment door 12 so as not to interfere with the placement of electrical equipment.
[0098] As shown in Figures 14 and 15, on the surface of the second wiring storage fabric section 100 facing the electrical door 12, a wiring fixing member 120 is arranged in correspondence with the red indicator light 20 arranged at the top of the electrical door 12, and the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 arranged in that order below it.
[0099] The wiring cable 56 that connects the red indicator light 20 arranged on the electrical door 12 to the terminal block of the terminal box 28a is laid out through the second wiring storage section 100, and the electrical door 12 side is held in a position where it passes through the notch 126 of the elastomer plate member 124 provided in the corresponding wiring fixing member 120, as shown in Figure 20.
[0100] In addition, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 that connect the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 arranged on the electrical door 12 to the terminal block of the terminal box 28b are also laid out through the second wiring storage section 100, and on the electrical door 12 side, they are held in a position where they pass through the notch 126 of the elastomer plate member 124 incorporated in the wiring fixing member 120, which is arranged corresponding to the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26.
[0101] Furthermore, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 have their intermediate portions stored in the second wiring storage section 100 slackened to form slack wiring sections 580, 600, 620. When the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 arranged on the upper side of the electrical door 12 are relocated to the lower side of the electrical door 12, the corresponding wiring fixing member 120 must also be relocated downward. In this case, however, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 can be pulled out toward the electrical door 12, allowing for an increase in wiring length.
[0102] (c3. Change in the location of electrical equipment) The wiring when the arrangement of the electrical equipment arranged on the electrical door is changed will be described in more detail below.
[0103] Figure 21 shows a wiring structure using a second wiring storage section when the electrical equipment is relocated to the lower side of the electrical door, and the positions of the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25 and answer lamp 26, which were located above the electrical door 12 shown in Figure 13, have been moved to the lower side of the electrical door 12.
[0104] When changing the positions of the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26, the wiring fixing member 120 through which the corresponding wiring cables 58, 60, and 62 are inserted and held is removed and fixed in the corresponding position below. At this time, the screws 140 fixing the rotating frame 134 of the wiring fixing member 120 shown in Fig. 20 are loosened, the holding of the wiring cables 58, 60, and 62 inserted through the cutouts 126 caused by the pressing of the elastomer plate member 124 is released, the wiring cables 58, 60, and 62 are pulled out from the wiring slack portions 580, 600, and 620 stored in the second wiring storage section 100 to increase the wiring length, and then the rotating frame 134 is returned to its original position and held.
[0105] This increase in wiring length due to a change in the location of the electrical equipment is absorbed by the second wiring storage section 100, and does not affect the wiring from terminal boxes 28a, 28b, and the wiring length can be extended while it remains tied with cable ties 66. Therefore, as with the first wiring storage section, in the case of the second wiring storage section 100, even if the location of the electrical equipment is changed, there is no need for wiring work such as cutting cable ties 66 to change the wiring length or changing the wiring route, and wiring work can be easily and simply performed in response to a change in the location of the electrical equipment.
[0106] [d. Third wiring storage area] The third wiring storage section arranged on the rear side of the electrical door will be described in more detail with reference to Fig. 22 and Fig. 23. Here, Fig. 22 shows a wiring structure using the third wiring storage section when the electrical equipment is arranged on the upper side of the electrical door, Fig. 23 shows the third wiring storage section removed, Fig. 23(A) shows a front view, Fig. 23(B) is a cross section shown at section line bb in Fig. 23(A), and Fig. 23(C) is another structure according to the cross section shown at section line bb in Fig. 23(A).
[0107] (d1. Structure of the third wiring storage section) The structure of the third wiring storage section 200 is arbitrary, but for example, as shown in Figure 23(A), it is composed of a hard elastomer cylindrical body 202, a first opening 204, a soft elastomer closing section 206, a notch section 208 and a second opening 218.
[0108] The hard elastomer cylindrical body 202 is a cylindrical body made of a hard elastic body, and as shown in FIG. 22, is a vertically long cylindrical member having a height corresponding to a predetermined range in the height direction of the door body 12a of the electric door 12, and is manufactured, for example, by injection molding of hard rubber.
[0109] The first opening 204 is formed with a predetermined width in a predetermined range corresponding to the arrangement of electrical equipment in the height direction of the outer peripheral surface of the hard elastomer cylindrical body 202 facing the door back surface of the door main body 12a. As shown in Fig. 23(B), the first opening 204 is closed by a soft elastomer closing part 206 made of soft rubber, which functions as a closing member made of a soft elastic body, being fixed on the inner peripheral side by adhesive or the like.
[0110] The soft elastomer closing member 206 that closes the first opening 204 is formed with a cutout 208 that penetrates through in the thickness direction within a predetermined range in the height direction for inserting wiring to an electrical device.
[0111] 23(C), a soft elastomer cylindrical body 220 made of a soft elastic body and functioning as a closing member may be disposed with its outer surface in close contact with the inner surface of the hard elastomer cylindrical body 202, thereby closing the first opening 204. The soft elastomer cylindrical body 220 is formed with a cutout 208 that penetrates in the thickness direction within a predetermined range in the height direction to allow wiring to an electrical device to pass through.
[0112] Mounting plates 210 having mounting holes 214 are disposed on the upper and lower end sides of the hard elastomer cylindrical body 202. The mounting plates 210 may be disposed in any configuration relative to the hard elastomer cylindrical body 202, but in this embodiment, the mounting plates 210 are fixed with screws 216 to a U-band 212 fitted into the hard elastomer cylindrical body 202.
[0113] The second opening 218 is for inserting the wiring cables from the terminal boxes 28a, 28b, and since the wiring to the terminal boxes 28a, 28b is performed through the upper part of the housing, of the openings at the upper and lower ends of the hard elastomer cylindrical body 202, the opening at the upper end is the second opening 218.
[0114] (d2. Wiring using the third wiring storage section) The wiring between the terminal boxes 28a, 28b using the third wiring housing section 200 and the electrical equipment arranged on the electrical door 12 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG.
[0115] The third wiring storage section 200 is positioned at a predetermined distance from the rear surface of the electrical door 12 so as not to interfere with the placement of electrical equipment, by attaching and fixing the mounting plate 210 with the support pole 52 and screws 54.
[0116] The wiring cable 56 that connects the red indicator lamp 20 arranged on the electrical door 12 to the terminal block of the terminal box 28a is laid through the third wiring storage section 200, and the electrical door 12 side is connected to the first opening shown in FIG. 204 The wiring cable 56 is inserted into the notch 208 near the red indicator light 20, and the wiring cable 56 that has passed through the notch 208 is held in the inserted position by the elastic force of the soft elastomer closing portion 206.
[0117] In addition, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 that connect the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 arranged in the electrical door 12 to the terminal block of the terminal box 28b are also laid through the third wiring storage section 200, and the electrical door 12 side is the first opening shown in FIG. 204 The wiring cables 58, 60, 62 are inserted into the portions of the notch 208 near the transmitter 24, the telephone jack 25, and the answer lamp 26, respectively, and the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 that pass through the notch 208 are held in the inserted position by the elastic force of the soft elastomer closing portion 206.
[0118] Additionally, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 are slackened in the middle portion stored in the third wiring storage section 200 to form slack wiring sections 580, 600, 620. When the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 arranged on the upper side of the electrical door 12 are relocated to the lower side of the electrical door 12, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 can be pulled out to the lower side of the electrical door 12, which can accommodate an increase in wiring length.
[0119] Furthermore, the wiring cables 56, 58, 60, 62 are not bound but are free to change their wiring length between the third wiring housing section 200 and the electrical equipment door 12. On the other hand, the wiring cables are laid between the third wiring housing section 200 and the terminal boxes 28a, 28b in a bound state with a cable tie 66, and the wiring length does not change.
[0120] (d3. Changes in the location of electrical equipment) The wiring when the arrangement of the electrical equipment arranged on the electrical door is changed will be described in more detail below.
[0121] Figure 24 is an explanatory diagram showing a fire hydrant device in which the electrical equipment has been relocated to the underside of the electrical door. The transmitter 24, SOS display board 27, response lamp 26, and telephone jack 25 on the back of the door, which were located above the electrical door 12 shown in Figure 22, have now been moved to the underside of the electrical door 12.
[0122] As shown in FIG. 24, when the positions of the transmitter 24, telephone jack 25, and answer lamp 26 are changed to the lower side of the electrical door 12, the wiring lengths of the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 connecting the terminal boxes 28, 28b and the respective electrical devices become longer. However, before the position is changed, as shown in FIG. 22, the wiring cables 58, 60, 62 have slackened wiring sections 580, 600, 620 formed in the middle of the third wiring storage section 200, and the wiring length is increased by pulling out the slack wiring sections 580, 600, 620.
[0123] This increase in wiring length due to a change in the location of the electrical equipment is absorbed by the third wiring storage section 200, and does not affect the wiring from terminal boxes 28a, 28b, and the wiring length can be extended while it remains tied with cable ties 66. Therefore, even if the location of the electrical equipment is changed, there is no need to perform wiring work such as cutting cable ties to change the wiring length or changing the wiring route, and wiring work can be performed simply and easily in response to a change in the location of the electrical equipment.
