In today's era of increasing popularity of electric vehicles, charging stations are springing up, and the charging station distribution cabinet, as one of the core equipment of the charging station, plays a crucial role. Among them, the cabinet door hinge, a seemingly insignificant part, has a function that cannot be ignored.

First, the key position of the cabinet door hinge in the charging station distribution cabinet

The cabinet door hinge is an important link between the cabinet door and the cabinet of the distribution cabinet. First of all, it guarantees the normal opening and closing of the cabinet door. In the daily operation and maintenance of the charging station, the staff need to frequently open and close the cabinet door of the distribution cabinet, and carry out inspection, debugging and maintenance of the internal electrical equipment. If the cabinet door hinges are of poor quality or faulty, it may lead to the cabinet door can not be opened or closed smoothly, which will seriously affect the work efficiency, and may even delay the timely treatment of equipment failure, which in turn affects the normal operation of the entire charging station.

Secondly, the cabinet door hinges should bear the weight of the cabinet door. The cabinet door of the charging station distribution cabinet is usually made of metal materials, with a certain weight, and the cabinet door may also be installed with some operating handles, displays and other ancillary components, which further increases the weight of the cabinet door. High-quality cabinet door hinges must be able to steadily support the cabinet door, and in the long-term use of the process will not be deformed or damaged because of the weight to ensure that the cabinet door is always able to open and close properly.

Second, the characteristics of the cabinet door hinge requirements

High strength and durability

Due to the charging station distribution cabinet may be located in a more complex environment, the cabinet door hinge needs to have high strength characteristics. It should be able to withstand a certain degree of external impact, such as handling equipment or other operations may be accidentally on the cabinet door collision. At the same time, it also needs to have good durability, can withstand a long time of frequent opening and closing and a variety of environmental factors. It is usually made of high-quality metal alloy materials, which are precisely processed and treated to ensure its strength and durability.

Good corrosion resistance

Charging stations are usually set up in outdoor or indoor humid environments, and distribution cabinets are susceptible to erosion by moisture, dust and so on. Cabinet door hinges must have excellent anti-corrosion properties to prevent rust and corrosion to ensure their normal service life and performance. For example, the use of surface treatment processes such as galvanization or chrome plating can effectively improve the anti-corrosion ability of the hinges.

Precise opening and closing angle control

Cabinet door hinges need to be able to control the opening and closing angle of the cabinet door to facilitate the operation of the staff. When the door is opened, the door should be able to stay stable at the right angle, so as to facilitate the comprehensive observation and operation of the internal equipment of the power distribution cabinet. At the same time, when closing the cabinet door, to ensure that the cabinet door can be closely affixed to the cabinet, to ensure the sealing of the distribution cabinet, to prevent dust, water vapor and so on into the cabinet to affect the normal operation of electrical equipment.

Third, the importance of maintenance and management

In order to ensure that the cabinet door hinges always maintain good performance, regular maintenance and management is essential. Staff should regularly check the fastening of the cabinet door hinges, see whether the screws are loose, if loose should be tightened in time. At the same time, attention should be paid to cleaning the hinge surface of the dirt and dust, to prevent it from affecting the normal operation of the hinge. Lubricant can be added to the hinge regularly to maintain its flexibility and smooth opening and closing performance.

In short, although the cabinet door hinge of the charging station distribution cabinet is a small part, it plays an important role in the normal operation of the charging station and the safety and stability of the electrical equipment in the distribution cabinet. We must pay attention to the quality, characteristics and maintenance management of the cabinet door hinge to ensure the efficient and reliable operation of the charging station and provide a solid backing for the popularization and development of electric vehicles.
