Wind pressure type shutter for outdoor switchboard
A wind pressure type shutter includes first and second rotation shafts, and first and second flaps. The first flap rotatably hung on the first rotation shaft closes a flow path in a vertical position and opens the flow path in a position rotated from the vertical position. The second flap rotatably attached to the second rotation shaft closes the flow path and prevents the rotation of the first flap by an upstream-side end portion of the second flap in a horizontal position, and opens the flow path in a position rotated from the horizontal position. When a negative pressure is generated downstream of the second flap, the second flap rotates to open the flow path and the upstream-side end portion is disengaged from the first flap, so that the first flap rotates toward a downstream side to open the flow path.
1. A wind pressure type shutter for an outdoor switchboard having a flow path for discharging, from a discharge port, gas taken in from an intake port, the wind pressure type shutter comprising:
a first rotation shaft that is horizontally arranged downstream of the intake port;
a first flap that is rotatably hung on the first rotation shaft, the first flap closing the flow path in a vertical position and opening the flow path in a position in which the first flap has rotated from the vertical position;
a second rotation shaft that is horizontally arranged downstream of the first flap; and
a second flap that is rotatably attached to the second rotation shaft, the second flap, in a horizontal position, closing the flow path and preventing rotation of the first flap by an upstream-side end portion of the second flap, and in a position in which the second flap has rotated from the horizontal position, opening the flow path, wherein
when a negative pressure is generated downstream of the second flap, the second flap rotates to open the flow path and the upstream-side end portion is disengaged from the first flap, so that the first flap rotates toward a downstream side to open the flow path.
2. The wind pressure type shutter for the outdoor switchboard according to claim 1 , wherein a center of gravity of the second flap is positioned closer to a side of the first flap than the second rotation shaft.
3. The wind pressure type shutter for the outdoor switchboard according to claim 2 , wherein the second flap has an intake opening arranged closer to a side of the first flap than the second rotation shaft.
