[0030] In some embodiments, the upper end of the bracket 310 is provided with a mounting hole 311, and the movable part 300 is fixedly connected to the shielding part 200 through the mounting hole 311. By providing the mounting hole 311, the connection stability between the movable part 300 and the shielding part 200 is improved, and the movable part 300 is prevented from becoming loose during operation of the motor 330, which would affect the structural stability of the electric vehicle charging protection device.

[0031] In some embodiments, the main body 100 is further provided with a display screen 150 and a card reader 160, both of which are electrically connected to the controller 110.

[0032] In the installation process of an electric vehicle charging protection device according to an embodiment of this application, an external power source is connected through a connection port 130 located on the side of the main body 100, and an electrical device, such as an electric vehicle, is connected through the connection port 130 located on the side of the main body 100. A connecting rod 140 is installed in the positioning hole 141 located at the upper end of the main body 100. Then, a rotating block 320 is fixed into the connecting block 340, and a motor 330 and a connecting block 340 are fixed onto a bracket 310. The drive end of the motor 330 and the connecting block 340 are connected by a chain or the like, and the bracket 310 is fixedly installed below the shield 200 by inserting bolts into the mounting hole 311. Next, a pressure sensor 212 and a spring 211 are installed sequentially in the sleeve 210, and the shield 200 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the main body 100 by inserting the connecting rod 140 into the sleeve 210. Finally, the main body 100 is fixed outdoors, completing the positioning and installation of the electric vehicle charging protection device. The entire installation process is efficient and controllable, ensuring the convenience of maintenance of the electric vehicle charging protection device.

[0033] In the use of an electric vehicle charging protection device according to an embodiment of this application, when a user needs to charge, user information is input through button 120 and card reader 160. Controller 110 connects to the connection port 130 between the external power supply and the electrical device, enabling the electric vehicle charging protection device to charge the electrical device. In rainy weather, rainwater is discharged outwards through both sides of the shield 200, preventing water accumulation above the main body 100. Simultaneously, the shield 200 completely covers the main body 100, effectively preventing rain from contacting the controller 110, button 120, and connection port 130, thus improving the operational stability of the electric vehicle charging protection device. In snowy weather, the snow falling above the shield 200 increases the pressure exerted by the shield 200 on the main body 100, i.e., the connecting rod 140... Spring 211 applies greater pressure to pressure sensor 212 inside sleeve 210. When the reading of pressure sensor 212 exceeds a preset threshold, controller 110 sends a start-up command to motor 330. Motor 330 drives rotor 320 to rotate and generate centrifugal force, which in turn causes shield 200 to vibrate, causing snow above shield 200 to fall off, preventing excessive snow accumulation from deforming shield 200 and improving the safety and stability of electric vehicle charging protection device. When the snow accumulation above shield 200 decreases and the reading of pressure sensor 212 falls below the threshold, controller 110 sends a stop-up command to motor 330, effectively controlling the amount of snow accumulation above shield 200, preventing deformation of shield 200, and improving the structural stability of electric vehicle charging protection device.

[0034] An embodiment of this application provides an electric vehicle charging protection device. By providing a shielding part 200 and a movable part 300, the movable part 300 drives the shielding part 200 to move. A rotating block 320 rotates, generating centrifugal force to cause snow accumulation above the shielding part 200 to fall off, preventing excessive snow accumulation from deforming the shielding part 200 and improving the safety and stability of the electric vehicle charging protection device. By providing a main body 100 and a shielding part 200, the shielding part 200 can completely cover the button 120, connection port 130, and controller 110, preventing rainwater corrosion of the main body 100 and affecting the safety of the electric vehicle charging protection device, thus improving its service life. By providing a spring 211, the connecting rod 140 is movably connected to the sleeve 210, allowing the shielding part 200 to move flexibly. The device moves downwards to remove snow, preventing vibrations from the rotating block 320 and motor 330 from being transmitted to the main body 100, thus ensuring the operational stability of the controller 110 and connection port 130. By setting a pressure sensor 212, the device can accurately monitor the pressure applied by the shielding part 200 to the connecting rod 140, thereby determining whether snow removal is necessary above the shielding part 200. This prevents excessive snow accumulation above the main body 100, reduces the starting frequency of the motor 330, and improves the safety and stability of the electric vehicle charging protection device. The connection block 340 ensures the connection stability between the motor 330 and the rotating block 320, preventing the rotating block 320 from becoming loose during rotation, which would prevent the stable generation of centrifugal force and affect the snow removal effect of the electric vehicle charging protection device.
