DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] An embodiment of the present application discloses an electrical device, in which a preset side surface of the device body is provided with a recessed portion, and the recessed portion extends to at least one side surface of the device body adjacent to the preset side. By setting the preset side as the back of the device body, wiring operations can be performed by entering the recessed portion from the surface adjacent to the back, thereby improving the operational convenience of back wiring, avoiding reserving too much space on the back side of the electrical device, and saving the floor space of the electrical device.

[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3. An embodiment of the present application provides an electrical device, including a device body 1, a surface of a preset side of the device body 1 is provided with a recessed portion 2, and the recessed portion 2 extends to at least one side surface of the device body 1 adjacent to the preset side; a component connected to the interior of the device body 1 is installed in the recessed portion 2.

[0032] When the above-mentioned electrical device is used, the surface of the preset side is set as the back side 102 of the device body 1, and the components installed in the recessed portion 2 are set to include at least a wiring port 3 for connecting cables; the recessed portion 2 extends from the back side of the device body 1 to at least one side surface of the device body 1 adjacent to the preset side, which makes it convenient for wiring personnel to extend their hands and / or tools from at least one side surface adjacent to the preset side into the recessed portion 2 to perform wiring operations on the wiring port 3, avoiding wiring operations on the back side 102 of the device body 1, improving the convenience of wiring, and eliminating the need to reserve too much space on the back side of the electrical device, thereby saving the floor space of the electrical equipment.

[0033] In addition, the recessed portion 2 is provided on the surface of the predetermined side of the device body 1. When the surface of the predetermined side is set as the back side 102 of the device body 1, the recessed portion 2 is opened from the back side 102 of the device body 1, facilitating the routing of the wiring harness connected to the wiring port 3 from the back side of the device body 1. This allows the wiring harness to be shielded by the device body 1 rather than hanging from the side or top surface of the device body 1, thereby ensuring a neat and tidy appearance of the electrical device. At the same time, the recessed portion 2 extends to at least one side surface of the device body 1 adjacent to the predetermined side, allowing the recessed portion 2 to be visible from the at least one side surface, facilitating operation of the components within the recessed portion 2.

[0034] Furthermore, the components installed in the recessed portion 2 can be configured to further include buttons, indicator lights, etc., so as to save area on other surfaces of the device body 1.

[0035] The device body 1 is an upright cubic structure, comprising a plurality of vertical side surfaces forming a ring, an upper surface sealed at the upper end of the ring, and a lower surface sealed at the lower end of the ring. One vertical side of the device body 1 is the back surface, which is adjacent to a wall or other electrical equipment on site. The electrical equipment provided by this embodiment can shorten the distance D between the back surface of the device body 1 and adjacent walls or other electrical equipment.

[0036] In some embodiments, the surface of the preset side in the device body 1 is set as the back side 102 of the device body 1, and the recessed portion 2 extends to the upper surface 101 of the device body 1, so as to facilitate the operation of the components in the recessed portion 2 from above the device body 1, and facilitate the arrangement of other equipment around the device body 1 at the application site.

[0037] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that electrical equipment can be used indoors or outdoors in rainy or snowy conditions. To prevent rain and snow from entering the recessed portion 2 from above the device body 1 and endangering the safety of components within the recessed portion 2, a cover plate 4 is mounted on the upper surface 101 of the device body 1 in the electrical equipment described above. The cover plate 4 is positioned above the recessed portion 2, as shown in FIG1 .

[0038] The top of the recessed portion 2 is shielded by a cover plate 4. To prevent operation on components from the back of the device body 1, the recessed portion 2 extends not only to the upper surface 101 of the device body 1, but also to a vertical side surface 103 of the device body 1 adjacent to the back, or to two opposite vertical side surfaces 103 of the device body 1 adjacent to the back. During use, a worker can insert their hands and / or tools from the vertical side surface 103 into the recessed portion 2 to perform operations such as wiring components. Of course, the cover plate 4 can also be configured to be openable and closable; when operation on a component is required, the cover plate 4 is opened, allowing the recessed portion 2 to be exposed from the upper surface 101 of the device body 1, making it convenient for the worker to insert their hands and / or tools from the top of the device body 1 into the recessed portion 2 to perform operations such as wiring components. After the operation is completed, the cover plate 4 is closed to shield the top of the recessed portion 2, preventing rain and snow from entering the recessed portion 2 from above and endangering the insulation and safety of the components.

[0039] Preferably, the bottom surface 21 of the recessed portion 2 is an inclined plane, and the upper end of the bottom surface 21 intersects with the upper surface 101 of the device body 1 and the lower end intersects with the back surface 102 of the device body 1. Components are mounted on the bottom surface 21 of the recessed portion 2.

[0040] The inclined bottom surface 21 prevents water from accumulating in the recessed portion 2, further improving component safety. The angle between the bottom surface 21 and the vertical direction is set to a preset value. This ensures rapid water flow and improves the smoothness of wiring harnesses connected to components such as the wiring port 3 exiting from the back of the device body 1. This prevents the harness's reliability from being compromised by an excessively small turning radius R. The preset value can be set between 0° and 45°.

[0041] The bottom surface 21 of the recessed portion 2 intersects with two opposite vertical side surfaces 103 of the device body 1 . The two vertical side surfaces 103 are respectively adjacent to the upper surface 101 and the back surface 102 .

[0042] In some embodiments, the device body 1 can be configured to be hung on a wall at the application site, or fixed to the ground at the application site via a bracket 5. In this case, the lower surface 104 of the device body 1 is suspended high, and the recessed portion 2 can be configured to extend to the lower surface 104 of the device body 1, as shown in FIG2 . During use, a worker can extend their hands and / or tools from the lower surface 104 into the recessed portion to perform operations such as wiring components. The recessed portion 2 can be configured to extend to a vertical side surface 103 adjacent to the back of the device body 1 or to two opposite vertical side surfaces 103 adjacent to the back of the device body 1, so that the worker can perform wiring operations such as wiring on the vertical side surface 103 or the lower surface 104 of the device body 1 according to the on-site environment and personal operating habits.

[0043] Furthermore, in order to prevent water from entering, the recessed portion 2 is configured to include an intersecting inclined top surface 23 and a vertical connecting surface 22; the inclined top surface 23 intersects with the back surface 102 of the device body 1, and the vertical connecting surface 22 intersects with the lower surface 104 of the device body 1; the end of the inclined top surface 23 intersecting with the vertical connecting surface is higher, and the end intersecting with the back surface 102 is lower; and the components are installed on the inclined top surface 23.

[0044] In other embodiments, the recessed portion 2 is located in the middle of the back side of the device body 1 in the vertical direction; the recessed portion 2 extends to a vertical side surface 103 of the device body 1 adjacent to the back side, as shown in FIG3 ; or, the recessed portion 2 extends to two vertical side surfaces 103 of the device body 1 adjacent to the back side. Furthermore, to prevent water accumulation, the recessed portion 2 is configured to include an intersecting top surface and a bottom surface 21; the top surface intersects with the back side 102 of the device body 1, and the bottom surface 21 intersects with the back side 102 of the device body 1; the end of the bottom surface 21 intersecting with the top surface is higher, and the end intersecting with the back side 102 is lower; and components are mounted on the bottom surface 21.

[0045] The electrical device described above can be configured as a household energy storage device. Accordingly, the device body 1 includes a battery module 11 and a main control box 12. There is at least one battery module 11 and at least one main control box 12. The battery module 11 and the main control box 12 are electrically connected via a hot-swap assembly. The hot-swap assembly includes a first plug 111 secured to the battery module 11 and a second plug connector 121 secured to the main control box 12.

When there are multiple battery modules 11, each battery module 11 is preferably stacked up and down, and adjacent battery modules 11 are also connected via hot-swappable components.

[0047] The above-mentioned recess 2 can be set on the back side of the main control box 12 or the back side of any battery module 11, and this embodiment does not limit it.

[0048] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.
