Cabinet and power converter
View Patent ↗A power converter includes a cabinet and an electric device accommodated in the cabinet. The cabinet includes a housing, a door, a support member, and a rotation mechanism. The door is rotatably supported around a first axis with respect to the housing. The support member is interposed between the housing and the door to support the door in the housing. The rotation mechanism rotates the door with respect to the housing around a second axis along a direction orthogonal to a plane direction of an opening of the housing.
1. A cabinet comprising:
a housing including an opening on one side surface;
a door that is rotatably supported around a first axis along the one side surface and is openable or closable to cover at least a portion of the opening;
a support member that is interposed between the housing and the door to support the door in the housing; and
a rotation mechanism that rotates the door with respect to the housing around a second axis along a direction orthogonal to a plane direction of the opening,
wherein the support member includes:
a substrate portion that extends along the first axis and is locked to the housing by a fixing portion and rotatably supported by the housing around the second axis, and
a hinge that is attached to the substrate portion and rotatably supports the door around the first axis,
wherein the fixing portion allows a rotation by the rotation mechanism in a state where the fixing portion is locked to the housing.
2. The cabinet according to claim 1 ,
wherein the substrate portion is formed in a plate shape, and
an elongated hole through which a fastening member connecting the housing and the support member is inserted and which is provided along a rotation direction of the door around the second axis is provided in a surface of the substrate portion.
3. The cabinet according to claim 1 ,
wherein the rotation mechanism is provided at a central portion in a longitudinal direction of the substrate portion.
4. The cabinet according to claim 1 ,
wherein the rotation mechanism includes a jig receiving port and is operated by a person to rotate the door around the second axis with respect to the housing.
5. The cabinet according to claim 1 ,
wherein the rotation mechanism includes:
a sun gear that is provided in one of the housing and the door and rotates around the second axis,
a plurality of planetary gears that are disposed in an outer peripheral portion of the sun gear and rotate around a rotating shaft of which a position in a circumferential direction of the sun gear is fixed, and
internal teeth that are attached to the other of the housing and the door and mesh with the planetary gears.
6. The cabinet according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a cover member that covers at least the rotation mechanism.
7. A power converter comprising:
the cabinet according to claim 1 , and
an electric device accommodated inside the cabinet.
