For example, in some alternative embodiments, a through hole may be further formed in the fixing plate 5 for the power line to penetrate through to connect the power line and the copper bar 2. For example, in this embodiment, through the structure that forms a rectangle riser through mould pressing or the mode of moulding plastics integrated into one piece at one side of adaptor as fixed plate 5, seted up the through-hole on the rectangle riser to make things convenient for the connection of power cord, so, copper bar 2 passes through adaptor and switch-on.

Specifically, the junction of the adapter and the box body 1 can be further provided with an insulating block 6 for installing the adapter and the box body 1 together in an insulating mode, the requirement of insulating wiring inside the junction box is met, and short circuit of wiring inside the junction box is avoided. For example, in some alternative embodiments, the insulation block 6 may be a rectangular plate or a circular plate. For example, referring to fig. 6, the insulating block 6 is a rectangular plate-shaped structure, one surface of the rectangular plate is fixed on the bottom of the box, and the opposite surface of the rectangular plate is used for fixing the adaptor, for example, in this embodiment, the insulating block 6 may be fixed on the bottom of the box 1 by a connecting member such as a bolt or a stud, so that the adaptor is mounted on the box 1 in an insulating manner by the insulating block 6.

Specifically, in this embodiment, please refer to fig. 7, first stopper 8 has adopted the rectangular block, through set up two rectangular channels down on the rectangular block, range upon range of on three-layer copper bar 2 through three the same rectangular block that takes the recess, set up the mounting hole simultaneously in the intermediate position of rectangular block for penetrating of fasteners 20 such as screw or double-screw bolt fixes the rectangular stopper on the box bottom of terminal box, 8 range upon range of settings of three first stopper, thus, make and all realized the position between every two adjacent longer copper bars 2 in the three copper bar layer and injectd, the change of the safe electric clearance between each longer copper bar 2 of having avoided the motor to lead to because the vibrations of the motor in-process of using, make the positional relationship of each copper bar 2 in the copper bar layer more reliable. It is easy to understand that the shape and the number of the slots on the first limiting block 8 can be adaptively adjusted according to the shape and the number of the plurality of copper bars 2 in each copper bar layer.

Further, can also set up second stopper 9 between two adjacent copper bar layers in the three copper bar layer, for example, second stopper 9 can adopt the massive or hemisphere shape structure of rectangle, offers on the second stopper 9 towards the copper bar and with the 2 shape matching's of copper bar recess to 2 cards of copper bar are established in this recess, and fasteners such as screw or double-screw bolt are passed through to the one end of second stopper 9 simultaneously and are fixed on the box body 1 of terminal box.

Specifically, the second limiting block 9 has adopted the rectangular block, and the rectangular channel towards the copper bar 2 is seted up through the bottom surface at the rectangular block, for example, in this embodiment, please refer to fig. 8, three rectangular blocks that have the rectangular channel are vertically arranged, and the rectangular block card is established in three-layer copper bar 2, penetrates fasteners 20 such as screws or double-screw bolts at the side end (like the right-hand member of fig. 8) of rectangular block simultaneously and fixes the rectangular limiting block on the bottom of the box of terminal box. So for all realized the position between two adjacent copper bar 2 in the vertical direction in the three copper bar layer and injectd, avoided the motor in the in-process that uses because the vibrations of motor and the change in the safe electric clearance between each longer copper bar 2 that leads to, make the position relation of copper bar 2 more reliable, also reduced the noise that vibrations brought simultaneously.

Furthermore, the side wall of the box body 1 of the junction box can be provided with a through hole 10, and a power supply cable penetrates into the box body 1.

In addition, a sealing ring can be laid between the junction box and the rack, for example, the sealing ring can be made of silica gel or rubber, and under the action of the sealing ring, pollutants are prevented from entering the junction box from the rack fixing hole 14 at the bottom of the junction box, so that the protection grade of the junction box is improved.

Further, the junction box may further include a cover plate, and the box body 1 and the cover plate are also fastened and connected by a plurality of fasteners. Specifically, for example, in this embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, a cover plate mounting hole 15 may be formed at the top end of the side wall of the box body, and meanwhile, a corresponding mounting hole is formed in the cover plate, so that a fastener such as a bolt or a stud can be inserted into the corresponding mounting hole to fix the cover plate on the side wall of the box body 1. Specifically, in this embodiment, the drift diameter of the cover plate mounting hole 15 can be as small as possible, the fastener adopts a thin screw which is adaptive to the size of the mounting hole, and the fastener is uniformly mounted on the side wall of the box body 1, so that the mounting strength between the box body 1 and the cover plate is ensured, and the protection grade of the junction box is further improved. Specifically, the turn-ups towards 1 direction of box body can also be equipped with around the apron, so, improved the rain proofness ability of terminal box, further improved the protection level of terminal box.

Specifically, can also set up the sealing washer between terminal box lateral wall and the apron, the sealing performance of further improvement terminal box, for example, the sealing washer can adopt silica gel or rubber preparation to form, under the effect of sealing washer, even the terminal box is in under the adverse circumstances, also can avoid the invasion of rainwater and granule for the terminal box shell satisfies better waterproof dustproof grade requirement.

According to the junction box provided by the embodiment, two adjacent copper bar layers are arranged in a step shape along the z-axis direction, and meanwhile, the lengths of the plurality of copper bars 2 in each copper bar layer are arranged in a staggered mode along the x-axis direction, so that the lengths of the plurality of copper bars in the junction box are different, circuit confusion during wiring when the number of phases of a motor is too large is avoided, wiring is more bright, the wiring accuracy is improved, meanwhile, a good safe electric gap and creepage distance can be obtained, and wiring can be facilitated while space is saved; the first limiting block 8 and the second limiting block 9 are arranged between the copper bars 2, so that the phenomenon that when the length of the copper bars 2 is too long, gaps between adjacent copper bars 2 are changed due to vibration in the operation process of a motor is avoided, and meanwhile, noise caused by vibration is reduced; the free end of the copper bar 2 is communicated with the free end of the copper bar 2 through the adapter, so that power is supplied to the motor, and the wiring operation of a user is facilitated; the plurality of insulating blocks 6 are arranged on the box body, so that the elements connected with the box body 1 in the junction box are insulated and fixed, and the design requirement of the junction box is met; the grounding copper bar 12 is arranged in the junction box, and the grounding block 13 is arranged outside the junction box, so that the junction box is ensured not to leak electricity in the using process, and the safety level of the junction box is improved; the elastic sealing ring is arranged at the joint of the cover plate and the box body 1, so that the protection grade of the junction box is improved, and the requirement of normal use of the junction box in a severe environment is met.
