A lighting device for a charging connector and its use method

Abstract

The invention discloses a lighting device for a charging connector, which can ensure that the charging plug of the charging connector is accurately inserted into the charging socket of an electric vehicle, does not occupy the extra space of the charging station, and does not affect the overall appearance of the charging station. It is connected to the charging pile. After the card reader of the charging pile receives the charging signal or the QR code on the charging pile is scanned, the CPU of the charging pile controls the power to turn on to prepare for charging the electric vehicle. The lighting device of the charging connector Including: LED light source, which is installed at the front end of the charging plug of the charging connector, and configured to emit light; LED driving circuit, which is installed inside the charging connector and connected with the LED power supply, and configured to drive the LED light source to emit light; LED power supply , which is connected to the CPU of the charging pile, and supplies power to the LED drive circuit; the CPU of the charging pile controls the opening and closing of the LED power supply. A method of using the lighting device is also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical fields of new energy vehicles and LED lighting, in particular to a lighting device for a charging connector and a method for using the lighting device. Background technique [0002] With the advancement of technology and the development of science and technology, as well as the increasingly serious environmental pollution, new energy vehicles are more and more accepted by the public due to their energy saving and environmental protection. The charging problem of electric vehicles is also more and more paid attention to by people. Many charging piles have been built in many places in China to charge electric vehicles, which has played a very good role in the promotion of electric vehicles. [0003] However, in the case of insufficient light such as night or bad weather, it is difficult for people to accurately insert the charging plug of the charging connector into the charging socket of the electric vehic...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in the case of insufficient light such as night or bad weather, it is difficult for people to accurately insert the charging plug of the charging connector into the charging socket of the electric vehicle when charging, which has a great impact on charging and the user experience. feeling worse

Therefore, charging pile owners need to spend a lot of money to build lighting devices, which takes up a lot of space and affects the overall appearance of the charging station
