Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of new energy vehicles, and in particular to a charging port system for a new energy vehicle. Background Art

[0002] New energy vehicles refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as a power source (or use conventional vehicle fuels and adopt new vehicle power devices), and integrate advanced technologies in vehicle power control and drive to form vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. New energy vehicles can also be called electric vehicles, which require rechargeable batteries to be charged from time to time.

[0003] The existing charging methods for new energy vehicles are mainly fast charging and slow charging. According to national standards, fast charging sockets and slow charging sockets cannot be shared. Therefore, most pure electric vehicles are designed with fast charging ports and slow charging ports on the body.

[0004] Car manufacturers combine cost savings, structural layout and other factors to place the fast and slow charging ports in the same charging door. Since only one charging port can be used for charging at the same time, the other charging port needs to be exposed. At this time, in order to solve the problem of the other exposed charging port, the charging seat manufacturer adds sealing covers to the two charging ports. When one charging port needs to be used, its sealing cover is removed and the charging gun is inserted. At this time, under the premise that one charging door is exposed and opened, anyone can operate the charging seat sealing cover. When one is removed for charging, both sealing covers can be removed at the same time, which is prone to safety accidents and the risk of spontaneous combustion caused by corrosion.

[0029] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 8 , a charging port system for a new energy vehicle, which is arranged on the body of the new energy vehicle, comprises: a charging zone component, which is formed on the body, and the inner side of the charging zone component is communicated with the interior of the body. Specifically, the charging zone component comprises a charging base 1 recessed in the body, a charging cover (not shown in the figure) connected to the charging base 1 and having an open state and a closed state, and the fast charging interface 2 and the slow charging interface 3 are provided on the charging base 1;

[0031] A fast charging interface 2, which is arranged in the charging area component and is used to adapt to a fast charging device 4;

[0032] A slow charging interface 3, which is arranged in the charging area component and is used to adapt to slow charging equipment;

[0033] It also includes: a movable shielding mechanism, which can shield one of the fast charging interface 2 and the slow charging interface 3, so that the shielded fast charging interface 2 or the slow charging interface 3 is isolated from the interior of the vehicle body.

[0034] In this embodiment, the movable shielding mechanism is preferably an electrically driven movable shielding mechanism. Alternatively, the movable shielding mechanism may also be driven by other power forms, such as a cylinder drive.

[0035] There are many specific forms and compositions of the electrically driven mobile shielding mechanism. Here, a preferred solution is provided, which is as follows: the electrically driven mobile shielding mechanism includes a driving motor 7, a lead screw 8 connected to the driving motor 7, a nut seat 9 sleeved on the lead screw 8 and capable of moving along the lead screw 8, and a shielding member 10 connected to the nut seat 9, wherein the driving motor 7 is connected to the driving computer or vehicle key of the new energy vehicle. There are two groups of lead screws 8, which are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the shielding member 10. The driving motor 7 is connected to the two groups of lead screws 8 through a pulley transmission mechanism. The pulley transmission mechanism includes a driving wheel group 11 sleeved on the output shaft of the driving motor 7, a driven wheel group 12 sleeved on the lead screw 8, and a transmission belt 13 connected between the driving wheel group 11 and the driven wheel group 12. The drive motor 7 is started upon receiving the command signal, and drives the lead screw 8 to rotate through the pulley transmission mechanism, so that the nut seat 9 on the lead screw 8 moves along the direction of the lead screw 8, and at the same time, the shielding member 10 moves to shield one of the fast charging interface 2 and the slow charging interface 3, isolating it from the outside world and playing a protective role. A single drive motor 7 drives multiple lead screws 8 through a pulley transmission mechanism, which can achieve better synchronization, and the form of multiple lead screws 8 can make the shielding member 10 run more smoothly.

[0036] Furthermore, the shielding member 10 and the nut seat 9 are integrally formed, thereby having better synchronization and stability.

[0037] During use, foreign matter may enter the charging area component, causing internal jamming and blocking, making related functions unable to operate normally, or even causing damage to related components and completely unable to be used, resulting in economic losses. In order to solve the above defects, the electrically driven mobile shielding mechanism also includes a protective baffle 14, on which a slot 5 compatible with the fast charging interface 2 and the slow charging interface 3 is opened, and the protective baffle 14 is arranged on the inner side of the charging base 1 and cooperates with the charging base 1 to form a protective cavity 15, and the lead screw 8 and the shielding member 10 are arranged in the protective cavity 15. More specifically, the upper and lower ends of the protective baffle 14 are respectively provided with a barrel portion 16 for mounting the lead screw 8, and the barrel portion 16 is provided with a notch 17, and the charging base 1 is convexly provided with a support platform 18, and the support platform 18 is inserted into the notch 17 to form a circular socket 19, and the end of the lead screw 8 is inserted into the circular socket 19. Through the cooperation between the protective baffle 14 and the charging base 1 , a relatively closed protective cavity 15 is formed to isolate foreign matter from the outside, thereby effectively protecting accessories such as the lead screw 8 and the shielding member 10 installed in the protective cavity 15 .

[0038] In order to facilitate the positioning and installation of the protective baffle 14, a circle of limiting steps 20 are convexly provided on the inner side surface of the charging base 1, and the limiting steps 20 form a receiving area 21. The protective baffle 14 is installed in the receiving area 21, and the outer edge of the protective baffle 14 abuts against the limiting steps 20. The structural scheme in this embodiment can achieve a rapid positioning effect through the cooperation between the limiting steps 20 and the outer edge of the protective baffle 14, ensure the accuracy of the installation position, and effectively improve the production and assembly efficiency.

[0039] Preferably, the charging port system is further provided with an inductive receiving device (not shown in the figure), the fast charging device 4 is provided with a fast charging transmitting device (not shown in the figure), the slow charging device is provided with a slow charging transmitting device (not shown in the figure), the inductive receiving device is respectively connected to the fast charging transmitting device and the slow charging transmitting device, and the inductive receiving device is connected to the mobile shielding mechanism. By adopting this preferred solution, the mobile shielding mechanism can automatically and intelligently select to shield the fast charging interface 2 or the slow charging interface 3 according to the specific charging device held by the user.

[0040] Preferably, the charging base 1 is provided with a safety button 6, and the safety button 6 is control-connected with the drive motor 7. When in use, generally after the charging device is paired with the charging interface, the safety button 6 is pressed to realize the locking function of the drive motor 7, so that the drive motor 7 cannot work, so as to eliminate the safety accidents caused by misoperation; after charging is completed, the safety button 6 is pressed again to release the locking function of the drive motor 7, so that the drive motor 7 can operate normally.

[0041] The present invention provides a charging port system for new energy vehicles with a new structure to cope with new energy vehicles with at least two charging ports (fast charging and slow charging), aiming to shield the unused charging ports when charging, thereby improving the safety of charging. Its specific working principle is: when the user charges the new energy vehicle, selects the required charging device (fast or slow), switches the charging cover to the open state, and then controls the mobile shielding mechanism to shift to the charging port that does not match the selected charging device to achieve shielding protection, while exposing the charging port that matches the selected charging device, and then inserts the charging device into the corresponding charging port to achieve charging.

[0042] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
