BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a rainproof device for an outdoor housing that accommodates electronic equipment installed outdoors.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a case for housing a relatively small electronic device or the like installed outdoors, an operator performs maintenance from outside the case when the case is maintained in bad weather such as rain or wind. As a result, not only the operator gets wet, but also the inside of the housing gets wet and electronic parts and the like get wet, which may cause an unexpected accident. It is conceivable to use an umbrella to avoid this, but this limits the free movement of both hands of the worker. In addition, although there are cases where the work is performed by covering the seat with the housing, since it is often accompanied by wind in bad weather, not only is it a great deal of work to fix the seat, but also the seat flies and it is safer. Not preferable.

Conventionally, as a technique of this kind, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2-377
No. 15 "Outdoor housing wind and rain device" has been announced.

[0004]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] As a device for preventing rain and wind from entering the outdoor housing in order to enable maintenance even in bad weather such as rain or wind, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2-37715 "Outdoor housing""Windproof rain device" has been announced, but it is not necessarily simple structure, so it is difficult to use. Therefore, can the present inventor provide a rainproof device for an outdoor enclosure with an extremely simple structure? It was investigated.

[0005]

Therefore, in view of the above circumstances, the present invention is simple and effective for preventing the intrusion of rain or wind in an outdoor housing that accommodates electronic devices and the like even in bad weather such as rain or wind. In the outdoor case where the front opening of the main body is opened and closed by the door attached to one side of the main body via a hinge, the front end of the heat shield plate located above the top plate of the main body and covering the top plate. Is fixed to the upper part of the door, the door is rotated around the hinge, and the heat shield plate is projected toward the front of the upper surface of the housing.
On the lower surface near the rear end of the heat shield plate, a thin plate insert piece that is bent in a stepwise manner is projected so as to horizontally face rearward, and it projects downward at a position corresponding to the insert piece on the top plate of the main body. A sandwiching member formed by superimposing an elastic upper sandwiching piece formed in a thin plate-like shape with its tip facing obliquely upward and a lower sandwiching piece having an upward convex shape with its tip facing obliquely downward. A rainproof device for an outdoor casing provided so as to sandwich the insertion piece.

[0006]

Since the heat shield plate is fixed to the upper part of the door, when the door is opened, the heat shield plate covers the upper part of the front surface of the opening of the main body, preventing rain and wind from entering the housing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments of the accompanying drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, an outdoor housing for accommodating electronic equipment includes a main body 1 having an opening on the front surface, and a door 3 for opening and closing the opening of the main body 1 via a hinge 2 on the right side of the main body 1. 3 has a structure which is closed by a lock (not shown).

On top of the top plate 4 of the main body 1, there is provided a heat shield plate 5 in which a thin plate material, which is placed at a constant interval from the top plate 4 and covers the top plate 4, is bent in a U-shaped cross section, and a spacer 6 is interposed at the front end thereof. Door 3
Stick to the top. The heat shield plate 5 protects the housing from solar heat. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the insert piece 7 bent stepwise with a thin plate material is horizontally fixed to the lower surface of the heat shield plate 5 near the rear end by spot welding or the like.

On the other hand, a holding member 8 for holding the inserting piece 7 is provided at a position on the top plate 4 of the main body 1 corresponding to the inserting piece 7. The sandwiching member 8 is elastic and has a downward convex upper sandwiching piece 9 and an upward convex lower sandwiching piece 10 so that the inserting piece 7 can be sandwiched.
And the upper clamping piece 9 and the lower clamping piece 10 are slanted upwardly, respectively, so that the insertion piece 7 can be easily received.
It is formed so as to face obliquely downward.

When the door 3 is closed, the heat shield plate 5 is attached to the main body 1.
The insertion piece 7 of the heat shield plate 5 is located above the top plate 4 and is held by being sandwiched between the upper holding piece 9 and the lower holding piece 10 of the holding member 8 on the top board 4. Heat shield 5 on top plate 4 of main body 1
Is positioned to avoid direct sunlight and prevent temperature rise inside the housing. When the door 3 is opened during the maintenance work, the heat shield plate 5 fixed to the door 3 is rotationally moved together with the door 3 as shown by a chain double-dashed line in FIG. Heat shield 5
By being located above the front surface of the main body 1, it is possible to prevent workers from being exposed to rain or wind in bad weather such as rain or wind, and to perform quick maintenance work. In addition, rainwater will not enter the inside of the main body 1 and an unexpected accident such as a short circuit of electronic components will not occur. Moreover, the structure of the rainproof device for the outdoor housing is extremely simple in that the heat shield plate is linked with the opening and closing of the door, and the rainproof device can be installed or stored by simply opening and closing the door. The rainproof device is easy to handle. After the work is completed, when the door 3 is closed, the heat shield plate 5 is placed on the top plate 4 of the main body 1, and the insertion piece 7 of the heat shield plate 5 is held by the holding member 8.
It is sandwiched and held by.

[0011]

As described above, according to the present invention, the front opening of the main body is opened and closed by the door attached to one side of the main body through the hinge. The front end of the heat shield that covers the top plate is fixed to the upper part of the door, the door is rotated around the hinge, and the heat shield plate is projected toward the front of the upper surface of the housing. A bent thin plate insert piece is projected horizontally so as to face rearward, and the tip on the top plate of the main body is formed so as to be convex downward and point obliquely upward at a location corresponding to the insert piece. A sandwiching member formed by stacking an upper sandwiching piece having elasticity with a thin plate material and a lower sandwiching piece having an upward convex shape with its tip facing obliquely downward,
It is an outdoor rainproof device provided so as to sandwich the insertion piece, and it is possible to effectively prevent rain and wind with an extremely simple structure.
Moreover, it has a simple structure and is extremely convenient to handle. In addition, the heat shield that blocks the sun's rays can also be used as a rainproof device.
