Reference to FIGS. 1-7, the generator running cover of the disclosure includes: a frame 1, matching with the generator and used to cover the generator to support the cover body 3 and to realize masking function; at least one arc-shaped support rod 2, detachably disposed on the frame 1 and protruding toward a direction far away from the frame 1; and a cover body 3, disposed on outer sides of the frame 1 and the at least one arc-shaped support rod 2. An outer surface of the cover body 3 forms a slope under an action of the at least one arc-shaped support rod 2 to prevent the cover body 3 from water accumulation or snow cover. Reference to FIG. 2, in an illustrated embodiment of the disclosure, there are two arc-shaped support rods 2 detachably disposed on the frame 1.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the generator running cover mainly includes the frame 1, the two arc-shaped support rods 2 and the cover body 3. When the generator running cover of the disclosure is used, the frame 1 is used to support the cover body 3 and to realize masking function, and a size of the frame 1 is matched with the generator. The two arc-shaped support rods 2 are inserted on a top portion of the frame 1, and the cover body 3 is placed on the outer sides of t the frame 1 and the two arc-shaped support rods. A bottom cover 33 of the cover body 3 is fixed to support posts 12. In the technical solutions of the disclosure, the cover body 3 plays a role in protecting the generator, specifically to play a role in waterproofing and dustproofing. The frame 1 and the two arc-shaped support rods 2 are used to support the cover body 3 and to prevent the cover body 3 from water accumulation or snow cover, as well as to adjust an installation position of the cover body 3. Due to the arc-shaped support rods 2 protruding toward the direction far away from the frame 1 after assembling, the slope is formed on the outer surface of the cover body 3 under the action of the arc-shaped support rods 2 to prevent the cover body 3 from the water accumulation or snow cover. Therefore, there is no need for manual drainage or snow removal, and the cover body 3 effectively prevents aging due to the long time water accumulation or snow cover.

The frame 1 of the generator running cover matches with the generator and is used to support the cover and facilitate the cover to realize its function.

In some embodiments of the disclosure, reference to FIG. 2, the frame 1 includes a top frame 11 and support posts 12. The support posts 12 are downward and are connected to the top frame 11 for supporting and tensioning the cover body 3 made of clothes to prevent the cover body 3 from loosening. In order to strengthen the solidity between the top frame 11 and the support posts 12, limit rods 4 are disposed between the top frame 11 and the support posts 12, each of which is disposed between a corresponding side of the top frame 11 and a corresponding one of the support posts 12, so that each the limit rod 4, the corresponding side of the top frame 11 and the corresponding support post 12 together form a stable triangular structure in the same plane.

In order to make the frame 1 capable of storage and enhance its portability, in some embodiments of the disclosure, the support posts 12 and the top frame 11 are designed with a folded connection to enable the support posts 12 to have a use state and a closed state. Therefore, the connection manner of the limit rod 4 also needs to be modified, specifically, an end of the limit rod 4 is designed to rotatably connect to the corresponding side of the frame 1, and an opposite end of the limit rod 4 is provided with a snap opening. When the support post 12 is in the use state, the limit rod 4 is rotated to make the snap opening thereof buckled on a protruding portion that is disposed on the corresponding support post 12. Reference to FIGS. 6-7, when the generator running cover is set aside, the support post 12 is in the closed state, namely that the limit rod 4 is rotated to overlap the corresponding side of the top frame 11, and the corresponding support post 12 is rotated to overlap the corresponding side of the top frame 11, thereby to make the limit rod 4 together with the corresponding support post 12 folded on the corresponding side of the top frame 11, e.g., the limit rod 4 is located between the support post 12 and the top frame 11. Therefore, the support posts 12 and the top frame 11 are able to be folded up together to save space. Therefore, when the generator running cover needs to be taken outside, it is portable to carry the folded support posts 12 and the top frame 11.

To further enhance the storability of the frame 1, reference to FIG. 7, in some embodiments of the disclosure, the top frame 11 is designed with a first top frame 111 and a second top frame 112 that are jointed together, and the first top frame 111 and the second top frame 112 are rotatably connected to each other so that the first top frame 111 is able to rotate around an edge of the second top frame 112 to dispose on the second top frame 112. In view of the above design, the generator running cover is able to be further folded to reduce storage space, but also more convenient to carry. Compared with the existing covers, the generator running cover provided by the disclosure does not need to be assembled and can be used after unfolding, which is more convenient.

The arc-shaped support rods 2 of the generator running cover have two features in the technical solution of the disclosure, a first one is that their shape are arch bridges, which is capable of making the outer surface of the cover body 3 above it form the slope to prevent water accumulation. A second one is that the arc-shaped support rods 2 are designed to be detachably assembled with the frame 1, which can be easily disassembled by a user when the generator running cover is not in use. In order to facilitate the installation of the arc-shaped support rods 2, the frame 1 is opened with through holes matched with the arc-shaped support rods 2 on its top portion. When there is one arc-shaped support rod 2, there are two through holes distributed at two ends of the top portion of the frame 1 for installation of the two ends of the one arc-shaped support rod 2.

In some embodiments of the disclosure, the arc-shaped support rods 2 include a first arc-shaped support rod and a second arc-shaped support rod. The top frame 11 is opened with four through holes at an end far away from the support posts 12, the two ends of the first arc-shaped support rod and the two ends of the second arc-shaped support rod are correspondingly inserted into the four through holes. Therefore, the two arc-shaped support rods 2 can more firmly support a bulge of the cover body 3, and the outer surface of the cover body 3 forms the slope conducive to rain drainage or snow drainage.

The cover body 3 of the generator running cover is provided on the outer sides of the frame 1 and the arc-shaped support rods 2, and the outer surface of the cover body 3 forms the slope under the action of the arc-shaped support rods 2 to prevent the cover body from water accumulation or snow cover. In order to increase the protective effect of the cover body 3, in some embodiments of the disclosure, the cover body 3 is made of a tarpaulin with good waterproof performance.

Reference to FIG. 4, the cover body 3 includes a bottom cover 33 sleeved on outer sides of the support posts 12 and the top frame 11; a top cover 31 disposed on the top frame 11 and detachably connected to the bottom cover 33 to facilitate lifting open part of the top cover 31 to expose a fueling port of the generator to fuel the generator; and four side layers 32 disposed on four sides of the top cover 31 respectively, which are rollable and extend outwardly. Connection assemblies are disposed between the side layers 32 and the bottom cover 33, so that the side layers 32 can be rolled inwardly to a preset height from ground and fixed on the bottom cover 33. Therefore, the user is able to adjust the height of the side layers 32 from the ground according to needs while using the generator running cover.

Reference to FIG. 5, in some embodiments of the disclosure, each of the connection assemblies includes a first connection piece 34 disposed on an inside of each of the side layers 32 and a second connection piece 35 disposed on an outside of the bottom cover 33. In an illustrated embodiment of the disclosure, the first connection piece 34 and the second connection piece 35 can be selected from Velcro. Therefore, the side layer 32 and the bottom cover 33 are detachably connected by the first connector piece 34 and the second connection piece 35. At the same time, when the height between the top portion and the ground need to be adjusted, it is convenient to directly adjust the position of the side layer 32 attached to the bottom cover 33, which is a simple and convenient operation.

It needs to be further explained that a main reason for designing the side layers 32 as rollable is that the side layer 32 covered on an air inlet and the side layer 32 covered on an air outlet of the generator need to be opened during using the generator. However, there are different models of the generators and different degrees of stormy weather; in order to allow the generator to achieve heat dissipation and facilitate the user to operate generator panel buttons and other buttons according to the actual situation during using the generator, the disclosure designs the side layers 32 as height adjustable.

And the technical solution of the disclosure combines the frame 1 and the cover body 3 that is length rollable to make the generator maintain ventilation and heat dissipation during using the generator running cover provided by the disclosure.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, a bottom of the bottom cover 33 is made of a resilient material to be fixed on the support posts 12 so that the bottom cover 33 is fixed on the frame 1 by elastic force. In some illustrated embodiments of the disclosure, parts of the bottom cover 33 that extend to the support posts 12 may be selected from an elastic cloth 331.

The disclosure provides a generator running cover, including: a frame 1, matching with the generator for covering the generator to form a protection; at least one arc-shaped support rod 2, detachably disposed on the frame 1 and protruding toward a side far away from the frame 1; and a cover body 3, disposed on outer sides of the frame 1 and the at least one arc-shaped support rod 2. An outer surface of the cover body 3 forms a slope under an action of the at least one arc-shaped support rod 2 to prevent the cover body 3 from water accumulation or snow cover. By setting the frame 1 and the cover body 3, the generator is protected from water and dust; and by setting the at least one arc-shaped support rod 2 protruding toward the side far away from the frame 1 after assembling, the slope is formed on the outer surface of the cover body 3 under the action of the at least one arc-shaped support rod 2 to protect the cover body 3 from the water accumulation or snow cover. Therefore, there is no need for manual drainage or snow removal, and the cover body 3 is effectively protected from aging due to the long time water or snow accumulation.
