Harsh environment enclosure

摘要

A harsh environment enclosure for use with sensor systems, such as cameras. The enclosure can include a housing having an end wall, sidewalls, a top wall, and a bottom wall. A door is hinged to the top wall. The enclosure can have a linkage assembly including a door lever having an elongate first end portion connected to the door, a laterally extending second end portion, and an elbow positioned therebetween. A pivot arm having a proximal end is connected to an interior surface of the housing and a distal end of the pivot arm is connected to the elbow. An actuator can be connected between the housing and the laterally extending second end portion. The linear actuator can be positioned with respect to the door lever and pivot arm to move the door to an open position when extended and a closed position when retracted.
