A foldable automatic charging mechanical arm and an electric vehicle equipped with the mechanical arm

Abstract

The invention relates to a folding automatic charging mechanical arm and an electric vehicle vehicleried with the mechanical arm. The mechanical arm is arranged at the bottom of the electric vehicle, and charging of the electric vehicle is achieved by plugging the mechanical arm into a socket. The mechanical arm comprises a swing arm fixing plate, a head joint, a connection plate, a parallel joint unit, a plug and a camera, wherein one end of the swing arm fixing plate is fixed to the bottom of the electric vehicle; one end of the head joint is connected with the other end of the swing arm fixing plate so that the mechanical arm can rotate around the head joint; the connection plate is an inverted U-shaped strip slot, and is connected with the head joint; the parallel joint unit is connected with the connection plate in a sliding mode; the parallel joint unit is located in the connection plate when the electric vehicle is not charged, and extends out of the connection plate and rotates around parallel joints when the electric vehicle needs to be charged; the plug is mounted at the tail end of the parallel joint unit; and the camera is mounted on one side face of the plug. Compared with the prior art, automatic charging is realized, a charging device is small in size, and using is convenient. The vehicle-mounted automatic charging mechanical arm fills up the blank in China and is of great significance on promoting the technological development of electric vehicles.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automatic charging of electric vehicles, in particular to a foldable automatic charging mechanical arm and an electric vehicle carrying the mechanical arm. Background technique [0002] With the gradual promotion and use of electric vehicles, the safety and convenience of electric vehicle charging has become an issue that must be paid attention to in the promotion of electric vehicles, especially for rental or other dedicated electric vehicles, at unattended return points, Users are required to operate by themselves after parking. On the one hand, manual operation poses a safety hazard. On the other hand, many users have not developed the habit of charging at hand or do not know how to plug and unplug the charging plug. In addition, the existing charging facilities are too large, lack of unified management, and rely on manual operations. [0003] Therefore, on the one hand, for electric vehicles, it is an impor...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN104795868A discloses an automatic charging system for electric vehicles. The charging plug of the electric vehicle is inserted into or pulled out of the charging socket through an independent mobile charging plug automatic plugging device, which solves the problem of manually plugging and unplugging the charging plug for electric charging. There are potential safety hazards in the car charging operation. The above-mentioned automatic charging device installed on the parking space must solve the problems of waterproofing and anti-theft, and it is not easy to maintain.

There are documents disclosing automatic charging devices for electric vehicles, but they are all designed in combination with existing charging piles. Not high, failed to fully realize the intelligence of electric vehicle charging

At present, there are no vehicle-mounted automatic charging devices and electric vehicles that can be automatically charged.
