[0046] Electric vehicles are vehicles that use an onboard power source as a power source, use motors to drive the wheels, and comply with various requirements of road traffic and safety regulations. With the gradual improvement of global environmental awareness, the popularity of electric vehicles is also gradually increasing. However, since electric vehicles need to be charged to replenish energy, how to charge electric vehicles is currently an important issue and a major problem that hinders the popularization of electric vehicles.
[0047] Existing charging sockets are very inconvenient to replace. If you want to replace a damaged charging socket, you need to remove the entire cable, cut off the damaged charging socket, and replace the entire charging socket. During the repair, we also found that the terminals of the charging socket are easily worn, while other parts are intact. When repairing and replacing, other effective parts of the socket have to be discarded, causing huge waste. As a result, the maintainability of the charging socket is very poor, the maintenance efficiency is low, and the maintenance cost of the charging socket is greatly increased.
[0048] It should be understood that in this embodiment, the charging socket can be provided on the electric vehicle and electrically connected to the battery of the electric vehicle, and the battery of the electric vehicle is charged by the electrical connection between the charging socket and the charger. In other optional implementations, the charging socket can also be provided on the charging pile.
[0049] Figure 1 FIG. 4 is an exploded view of a vehicle charging socket according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a vehicle charging socket according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle charging socket includes: a main body 10 , a terminal housing 20 , a terminal 30 , a fixing member 40 and an anti-loosening spring 50 .
[0050] Figure 3 2 is a schematic diagram of a main body of a vehicle charging socket according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a first portion of a main body of a vehicle charging socket according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5FIG. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of the second part of the main body of the vehicle charging socket according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1-5 As shown, the main body 10 is composed of a first part 11, a second part 12 and a cover plate 13. The first part 11 and the second part 12 can be detachably connected by a buckle 15, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown. The main body 10 is designed to be a structure in which the first part 11 and the second part 12 are detachably connected, which can facilitate the installation of the main body 10. At the same time, when only the first part 11 or the second part 12 is damaged, the damaged part can be replaced accordingly to reduce the maintenance cost. When not charging, the cover plate 13 covers the terminal to play a role in waterproofing and dustproofing, and can protect the terminal. In this embodiment, the cover plate 13 is hinged to the main body 10. In other optional implementations, the cover plate 13 can also be separated from the main body 10.
[0051] The main body 10 includes a plurality of terminal slots 14, which can be used to fix different types of terminals. In this embodiment, the terminals include a DC positive terminal and a DC negative terminal, which are located in two larger terminal slots 14 in the middle. After the plurality of terminals are electrically connected to the terminals on the charger, a charging circuit is formed to charge the battery of the electric vehicle.
[0052] like Figure 6-8 and Figure 13-14 As shown, the terminal housing 20 is detachably assembled in the main body 10, and the terminal housing 20 includes a receiving cavity 21, and a connecting hole 211 is provided at the bottom of the receiving cavity 21. In this embodiment, the connecting hole 211 is a screw hole with an internal thread, and the fixing member 40 is a screw, and the fixing member 40 is detachably screwed to the connecting hole 211; furthermore, in this embodiment, the terminal housing 20 cooperates with two larger terminal slots 14 in the main body 10 and is fixed in the terminal slots 14. The outer periphery of the terminal housing 20 is provided with a first limiting portion 16 protruding outward, and the inner wall of the terminal slot 14 is provided with a second limiting portion 22 protruding inward. The outer diameter of the first limiting portion 16 is larger than the inner diameter of the second limiting portion 22, and the first limiting portion 16 and the second limiting portion 22 cooperate to limit the relative position of the terminal housing 20 and the terminal slot 14. The bottom of the terminal housing 20 is electrically connected to the battery of the electric vehicle.
[0053] The terminal 30 is partially disposed in the accommodating cavity 21, including a bottom having a through hole 311, and the through hole 311 is disposed correspondingly to the assembly hole 211. In this embodiment, the two terminals 30 are respectively a DC positive terminal and a DC negative terminal. In other optional implementations, the terminals may also be of other types.
[0054] The fixing member 40 passes through the through hole 311 and cooperates with the assembly hole 211 to make the terminal 30 and the main body 10 detachably connected.
[0055] In this embodiment, the terminal 30 and the terminal housing 20 are detachably connected by providing a through hole 311 at the bottom of the terminal 30, and then the fixing member 40 cooperates with the assembly hole 211 in the terminal housing 20. When the terminal 30 is damaged, the terminal 30 can be replaced by removing the fixing member 40, so that the terminal 30 is easy to replace, which can reduce the maintenance cost and the maintenance time.
[0056] The terminal 30 includes an inner shell 31 and a rotating spring 32. The inner shell 31 includes a cylindrical side wall, and a limiting protrusion 314 is provided at a predetermined position on the outer periphery of the inner shell 31 side wall. The limiting protrusion 314 is annular, and the lower end surface of the limiting protrusion 314 cooperates with the upper end surface of the terminal housing 20, such as Figure 8 , Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, the portion of the inner shell 31 below the limiting protrusion 314 is placed in the terminal housing 20 .
[0057] A first slot 312 is provided in the side wall of the inner shell 31. In the present embodiment, a first slot 312 is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the inner shell 31. An anti-loosening spring 50 is provided in the terminal 30 and is located on one side of the fixing member 40, and the anti-loosening spring 50 is used to limit the fixing member 40. Specifically, the anti-loosening spring 50 is interference fit with the first slot 312. Specifically, the anti-loosening spring 50 is S-shaped, and is specifically formed by bending a spring steel wire. The first slot 312 is an annular groove, and the axial dimension of the groove is substantially equal to or slightly larger than the diameter of the spring steel wire. The diameter of the groove is substantially equal to or slightly smaller than the size of the anti-loosening spring 50. In other words, the distance between the two vertices of the S-shaped spring is substantially greater than the inner diameter of the inner shell 31 and substantially equal to or slightly larger than the diameter of the groove. The S-shaped spring can be placed in the first slot 312 only after a certain deformation. After the anti-loosening spring 50 is placed in the first slot 312, it returns to its initial state and is snapped into the first slot 312, so that the anti-loosening spring 50 will not fall off from the first slot 312. The S-shaped anti-loosening spring 50 has the advantages of small size and easy installation.
[0058] Both ends of the anti-loosening spring 50 are placed in the first clamping groove 312, and the middle part of the anti-loosening spring 50 has a bending limit portion 51. The bending limit portion 51 is an S-shaped middle part, and the bending limit portion 51 corresponds to one side of the fixing member 40, and the bending limit portion 51 presses against the fixing member 40. The anti-loosening spring 50 applies axial pressure to the fixing member 40, thereby increasing the pressure between the thread of the fixing member 40 and the thread of the assembly hole 211, thereby increasing the friction force of the fixing member 40 during the horizontal rotation process, thereby preventing the fixing member 40 from loosening.
[0059] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, in an optional implementation, the position of the first slot 312 is higher than the upper surface of the fixed fixing member 40. In other words, the bending limit portion 51 is a region where the middle of the anti-loosening spring 50 is recessed downward, and the middle of the upper surface of the anti-loosening spring 50 and the fixing member 40 abut against each other.
[0060] like Fig.10 As shown, in another optional implementation, the position of the first slot 312 is lower than the upper surface of the fixed fixing member 40. In other words, the middle part of the anti-loosening spring 50 bulges upward, and the bending limit portion 51 is the area where the middle part of the anti-loosening spring 50 bulges upward, and the outer periphery of the upper surface of the anti-loosening spring 50 and the fixing member 40 abut against each other.
[0061] like Fig.11 As shown, the bending limit portion 51 corresponds to one side of the fixing member 40 and is spaced apart from the fixing member 40. Fig. 9 and Fig.10 Compared with the implementation shown in the figure, the anti-loosening spring 50 of the present application is basically in the horizontal direction, without protrusions upward or depressions downward, and has a relatively simple shape. When the fixing member 40 moves upward in the axial direction and exceeds the spacing between the bending limit portion 51 and the fixing member 40, the anti-loosening spring 50 and the fixing member 40 abut against each other, preventing the fixing member 40 from moving upward in the axial direction too far and disengaging from the assembly hole.
[0062] It should be understood that in other optional implementations, the anti-loosening spring 50 may also be in other shapes, such as a spiral shape, etc.
[0063] like Figure 13-14 As shown, the bottom of the accommodating cavity 21 has a positioning ring 212 protruding inward, and the bottom of the inner shell 31 is provided with a positioning boss 315 cooperating with the positioning ring 212 in the outward direction. In other words, the positioning ring 212 at the bottom of the accommodating cavity 21 makes the inner diameter of the bottom of the accommodating cavity 21 smaller than the inner diameter of the upper part of the accommodating cavity 21, so that the accommodating cavity 21 is a stepped hole. The bottom of the inner shell 31 has a positioning boss 315 cooperating with the positioning ring 212. Through the cooperation of the positioning ring 212 and the positioning boss 315, the inner shell 31 and the terminal housing 20 are basically coaxial. At the same time, the through hole 311 and the positioning boss 315 are coaxial, and the assembly hole 211 and the positioning ring 212 are coaxial. Through the cooperation of the positioning ring 212 and the positioning boss 315, the through hole 311 and the assembly hole 211 can also be basically coaxial, which plays a role in positioning.
[0064] like Fig.15As shown, the rotating spring 32 includes: a first connecting ring 321, a second connecting ring 322 and a spring piece 323. The two ends of the spring piece 323 are respectively fixedly connected to the first connecting ring 321 and the second connecting ring 322, the spring piece 323 is a strip with a middle part inwardly concave, the spring piece 323 has a predetermined angle with the axial direction, and a plurality of the spring pieces 323 are arranged at intervals.
[0065] The rotating spring 32 is used to electrically connect to the charger. The diameter of the male terminal of the charger is slightly larger than the diameter of the middle part of the rotating spring 32. The male terminal is inserted into the rotating spring 32, squeezing the spring 323, so that the charger and the socket are electrically connected. Since the spring 323 is arranged obliquely, the contact area between the rotating spring 32 and the male terminal can be increased, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection between the socket and the male terminal.
[0066] A second slot 313 is provided in the side wall of the inner shell 31. The second slot 313 is located above the first slot 312, and the second slot 313 and the first slot 312 are spaced a predetermined distance apart. The rotary spring 32 is disposed in the second slot 313. The outer diameter of the first connecting ring 321 is greater than the inner diameter of the inner shell 31 and less than or equal to the inner diameter of the second slot 313, and the second connecting ring 322 has the same size as the first connecting ring 321. The axial dimension of the second slot 313 is greater than or equal to the axial dimension of the rotary spring 32.
[0067] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the anti-tentacle protection cap 70 has a central hole 71, which is fixedly connected to the upper end of the terminal 30. The anti-tentacle protection cap 70 is made of insulating material, which can prevent the operator from releasing the conductive part and getting an electric shock. Through the cooperation between the anti-tentacle protection cap 70 and the second slot 313, a space whose axial dimension is substantially equal to the axial dimension of the rotating spring 32 is formed between the lower surface of the anti-tentacle protection cap 70 and the second slot 313, and the rotating spring 32 is fixed in the second slot 313 by the anti-tentacle protection cap 70.
[0068] like Figure 8 and Fig.16 As shown, the vehicle charging socket further includes a conductive ring spring 60. The conductive ring spring 60 is disposed between the inner shell 31 and the terminal shell 20, and is electrically connected to the inner shell 31 and the terminal shell 20 respectively.
[0069] Specifically, the conductive ring spring 60 is in a spiral ring shape.
[0070] like Fig.16 As shown, in another optional implementation, the conductive ring spring 60 is formed into a circular ring in a spiral manner. In this embodiment, the cross section of the conductive ring spring 60 is circular, and in other optional implementations, the end face of the spring can also be elliptical or square, etc.
[0071] In this embodiment, the spirally arranged conductive ring spring 60 may have multiple contact points, so that a stable electrical connection is formed between the inner shell 31 and the terminal outer shell 20 .
[0072] like Figure 8 and Fig.14 As shown, the inner peripheral wall of the accommodating cavity 21 includes an annular fixing groove 213, and the conductive ring spring 60 is arranged in the accommodating space surrounded by the fixing groove 213 and the side wall of the inner shell 31. The conductive ring spring 60 is interference fit with the accommodating space. The accommodating space and the conductive ring spring 60 are interference fit, and the conductive ring spring 60 is compressed by the side wall of the accommodating space, so that the conductive ring spring 60 exerts a certain reaction force on the side wall of the accommodating space, so that the contact between the conductive ring spring 60 and the accommodating space is more stable.
[0073] Specifically, the inner peripheral wall of the accommodating cavity 21 includes a plurality of fixing grooves 213, and the plurality of fixing grooves 213 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction. A plurality of conductive ring springs 60 are arranged at intervals on the inner peripheral wall of the accommodating cavity 21 along the axial direction of the terminal 30, and are electrically connected to the rotary spring 32. Specifically, the conductive ring spring 60 electrically connects the terminal housing 20 and the inner housing 31, and the rotary spring 32 and the inner housing 31, thereby electrically connecting the terminal housing 20 and the rotary spring 32. The terminal housing 20 is electrically connected to the charging circuit of the battery. Therefore, when the male terminal of the charger is electrically connected to the rotary spring 32, the charging circuit of the battery is electrically connected to the power supply, thereby charging the battery.
[0074] In this embodiment, a plurality of conductive ring springs 60 are arranged along the axial direction to further increase the contact points and improve the stability of the electrical connection between the inner shell 31 and the terminal shell 20 .
[0075] The embodiment of the present invention provides a charging socket for a vehicle, by setting a through hole at the bottom of the terminal, setting a combination hole at the bottom of the terminal shell, and the fixing piece passing through the through hole and being assembled and matched with the combination hole, so that the terminal and the main body can be detachably connected through the fixing piece. By using a structure with detachable terminals, the maintenance cost and maintenance time can be reduced; it should be further explained that the present invention further sets an anti-loosening spring to prevent the screw fixing piece from loosening and stabilize the combination between the terminal shell and the terminal.
[0076] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
