Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a box for a self-standing panel for home use, which can collectively store meters for electricity, water, gas, etc., and electric devices such as circuit breakers, terminal blocks, etc.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an electric equipment such as a circuit breaker and a terminal block housed in a single outdoor box is known from Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 61-134610. However, in this type of box, it is necessary to open the front door to mount the equipment and distribute the wiring inside.Therefore, the workability of the wiring in the field is poor, and compared to the overall size, the installation of equipment inside There is a problem that the effective space for this is narrow, and a waterproof structure is required to prevent infiltration of rainwater, which complicates the structure and increases the manufacturing cost.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and can accommodate electrical equipment such as electricity, water and gas meters, circuit breakers, terminal blocks, etc., and easy installation and wiring of equipment. It was completed in order to provide a box for self-standing boards that has a large effective space, is completely waterproof, and is inexpensive to manufacture.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention, which has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, has a vertical flat plate-shaped device mounting base for mounting a device on a side surface of a horizontal base that is installed on the ground or the like. It is characterized in that a cap-shaped cover is put on the upper part of the.

Embodiments The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to illustrated embodiments. FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway perspective view of the self-standing board box of the embodiment, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view thereof. In these figures, 1 is a horizontal base for installing the whole on the ground, and 2 is an equipment mounting base erected in the center of the base 1. In the embodiment, the equipment mounting base 2 is supported by a pair of left and right frames 3 and 3 whose lower ends are fixed to the base 1. And a gap for wiring is formed between them.

FIG. 1 shows an example in which devices are mounted on these device mounting bases 2 and 2, 4 is a water meter, 5 is a gas meter, and 6 is an electric meter. Further, electric equipment such as a circuit breaker and a terminal block is attached to the equipment mounting base 2 on the back surface.

Reference numeral 7 is a lower cover provided as needed. The lower cover 7 has a cylindrical shape without an upper surface and a lower surface, is covered from above the device mounting base 2, and has its lower end 8 engaged with the outside of the stepped portion 9 of the base 1. A viewing window 10 is formed on the lower cover 7 at a position corresponding to the meters. A step portion 11 similar to the step portion 9 of the base 1 is formed on the upper end of the lower cover 7.

Reference numeral 12 is a cap-shaped cover which is covered from above the lower cover 7. The cover 12 has a bottomless shape, and its lower end 13 is engaged with the stepped portion 11 of the lower cover 7 to prevent rainwater from entering the inside as shown in FIG. A peep window 13 is also formed in the cover 12. Although the lower cover 7 and the cover 12 are separate from each other in the embodiment, they may be entirely covered by the vertically long cover 12 in which the lower cover 7 and the cover 12 are integrated.

[0009]

[Action]

 As shown in FIG. 1, the self-standing box of the present invention having the above-described structure mounts a water meter 4, a gas meter 5, an electric meter 6, an electric device such as a circuit breaker and a terminal block on a device mounting base 2. This is for the purpose of protecting the internal equipment from rainwater and the like by covering the cap-shaped cover 12 unlike the conventional box for electric equipment. For this reason, if the cap-shaped cover 12 is removed, there will be no obstacles in the surroundings, so that it is extremely easy to mount meters and devices on the device mounting base 2 and perform wiring work. Moreover, since the device can be mounted in the inner volume of the cap-shaped cover 12, the ratio of the effective space to the entire volume can be sufficiently increased. In particular, as in the embodiment, the two device mounting bases 2 are attached back to back to the frame 3 and the gap is utilized as a space for wiring, so that the wiring is exposed on the surface of the device mounting base 2. The aesthetic appearance can be improved, and since no wiring space is required on the surface of the equipment mounting base, the ratio of effective space can be further increased.

Further, since the box for a self-standing board of the present invention is entirely covered from above by the cap-shaped cover 12, a complicated waterproof structure as in the past is not necessary, and the manufacturing cost can be lowered. Since the reading of the meters inside can be easily performed through the viewing windows 10 and 13 provided in the lower cover 7 and the cap-shaped cover 12, there is no problem even with such a structure.

[0011]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, the present invention can store meters and electric equipment, is easy to install and wire the equipment, has a large effective space, and has a completely waterproof structure, yet the manufacturing cost is low. It has many advantages such as the above, and its practical value is extremely large as a box for a self-standing board that solves the conventional problems.
