Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of intelligent charging, and particularly relates to a charging device for an intelligent vehicle. Background Art

[0002] With the gradual popularization and application of intelligent and automated technologies, new requirements have emerged continuously, such as robots for mobile operations, vehicles for material handling, etc. They are mobile devices that require a power source to meet the charging need.

[0003] Currently, there are generally two ways to charge mobile devices: The first is manual operation. When the battery of a mobile device is low, it needs to be manually plugged in for charging. This method requires a dedicated person and a dedicated location, cannot achieve full automation, and there are also safety issues. The other operation method is automatic charging. However, in currently commonly used industrial automatic charging stations, the local part is an independent control system, that is, the automatic charging station has a set of control systems, and at the same time, the vehicle body to be charged also needs a set of control systems. These two control systems exist independently. The cooperation required during automatic charging must be achieved through wireless communication means, which not only has a high hardware cost but also has a complex control program, making it not conducive to large-scale use and replication. In addition, for the charging of intelligent vehicles, there is also a problem, that is: currently commonly used automatic charging stations have high requirements for the walking and stopping accuracy of vehicles, generally requiring within ±20 mm, while in actual applications, the general accuracy of vehicles under precise navigation is about ±30 mm.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0047] The core of the present invention is to provide a charging device for an intelligent vehicle, which can enable the intelligent vehicle and the charging cabinet to adaptively cooperate, so as to achieve fast and efficient automatic charging

[0048] In order to enable those skilled in the art in this technical field to better understand the solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners

[0049] It should be noted that the orientation terms such as "upper end, lower end, left side, right side" described below are defined based on the accompanying drawings of the specification

[0050] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , Figure 1 Charging schematic diagram of a charging device for an intelligent vehicle disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention Figure 2 For Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the second charging interface assembly on the intelligent vehicle in Figure 3 For Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the mating connection structure of the first charging interface assembly and the second charging interface assembly in Figure 4 For Figure 3 Top view of Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the cooperation between the limit block assembly and the intelligent vehicleFigure 6 Electrical schematic diagram of a charging device for an intelligent vehicle disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0051] The charging device for the intelligent vehicle provided by the embodiment of the present invention is mainly used for automatic charging of a mobile portable storage power supply (such as a storage battery or a lithium battery) type intelligent vehicle. The charging device includes a charging cabinet 1 and a second charging interface assembly 21 disposed on the vehicle body 2. The second charging interface assembly 21 can be used for the vehicle body 2 to cooperate and connect with the charging cabinet 1, so as to realize charging of the vehicle. The charging cabinet 1 can be fixed at a specific position in the charging station. When the intelligent vehicle detects that the power is lower than a preset threshold, the vehicle can reach the charging cabinet 1 according to a preset route, contact and connect with the charging cabinet 1 to form a charging circuit and start charging the intelligent vehicle; when it is detected that the power is full or the intelligent vehicle has a new task, the vehicle controls the charging cabinet 1 to disconnect the power supply, so that the charging cabinet 1 can automatically stop charging and wait to be restarted for the next charging.

[0052] The charging cabinet 1 includes a charger 12, a first charging interface assembly 11 and a rotation correction mechanism. The charger 12 is used to connect to a power supply; the first charging interface assembly 11 is connected to the charger 12. When the intelligent vehicle is charging, the first charging interface assembly 11 cooperates and connects with the second charging interface assembly 21 to enable the vehicle body 2 to realize charging; the rotation correction mechanism is connected to the first charging interface assembly 11. When the charging angle of the second charging interface assembly 21 on the vehicle body 2 deviates so that it cannot be fully connected to the first charging interface assembly 11, the rotation correction mechanism can make the first charging interface assembly 11 rotate around a vertical axis, so as to make up for the deviation angle of the second charging interface assembly 21, and thus the intelligent vehicle can complete charging efficiently.

[0053] Certainly, the rotation correction mechanism can specifically be set as a structure including a rotating connecting member (such as a bearing 106) and an elastic connecting member (such as a spring). The rotating connecting member can make the first charging interface assembly 11 perform a rotational movement, and the elastic connecting member can ensure full contact between the first charging interface assembly 11 and the second charging interface assembly 21 and the return function after charging is completed, so as to realize the adaptive mating connection between the first charging interface assembly 11 and the second charging interface assembly 21; in addition, the first charging interface assembly 11 can specifically be set to include a plurality of charging connection plugs, correspondingly, the second charging interface assembly 21 can specifically be set to include a plurality of charging connection sockets, and the charging connection plugs and the charging connection sockets are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. The charging circuit can be formed by the conduction connection of all the charging connection plugs and all the charging connection sockets to realize charging.

[0054] In this way, the charging device of the above intelligent vehicle can adaptively cooperate with the charging cabinet 1. Especially when the intelligent vehicle swings and causes a deviation in the charging angle with the charging cabinet 1, the rotation correction mechanism can well compensate for the angle deviation, so as to achieve fast and efficient automatic charging. At the same time, compared with the traditional setting of adding sensors, etc., to reduce the speed of the intelligent vehicle to ensure the positional relationship between the vehicle and the charging cabinet 1, the charging device of this intelligent vehicle can achieve automatic charging of the vehicle with low cost and high reliability.

[0055] Specifically, a relay 13 connected to the charger 12 can also be arranged inside the charging cabinet 1. The first charging interface component 11 can include a first insulating plate 103, a control conduction pin 102, and a charging current pin 101. Among them, the first insulating plate 103 is used for fixedly installing the control conduction pin 102 and the charging current pin 101; the control conduction pin 102 is used for connecting with the second charging interface component 21, so that the relay 13 inside the charging cabinet 1 can be in a conducting state; two groups of charging current pins 101 can be symmetrically arranged on the upper and lower sides of the control conduction pin 102, and the charging current pins 101 are used for forming a charging circuit to start the charging mode. Of course, the number of the control conduction pins 102 and the charging current pins 101 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and the setting of the control conduction pins 102 and the charging current pins 101 can refer to the prior art, which will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0056] Correspondingly, the second charging interface component 21 can specifically include a second insulating plate 203, a charging control connection block 202, and a charging block 201. Among them, the second insulating plate 203 can be arranged at the front end of the vehicle body 2 and is used for fixedly installing the charging control connection block 202 and the charging block 201; the charging control connection block 202 is used for cooperating and connecting with the control conduction pin 102; two charging blocks 201 are symmetrically arranged on the upper and lower sides of the charging control connection block 202 and are used for cooperating and connecting with the charging current pins 101, and all the charging blocks 201 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with all groups of charging current pins 101.

[0057] In this way, when the intelligent vehicle contacts the charging cabinet 1, first, the charging control connection block 202 contacts and connects with the control conduction pin 102, which can make the relay 13 of the charging cabinet 1 in a conducting state. At the same time, the two charging blocks 201 respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the charging control connection block 202 contact and connect with the two groups of charging current pins 101 respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the control conduction pin 102, thereby forming a charging circuit and starting to charge the intelligent vehicle. When it is detected that the battery is fully charged, the relay 13 (such as an electromagnetic relay) of the charging cabinet 1 automatically disconnects, the charging control connection block 202 and the control conduction pin 102 no longer contact, and the charging circuit formed by the two charging blocks 201 respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the charging control connection block 202 contacting and connecting with the two groups of charging current pins 101 respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the control conduction pin 102 also disconnects, and no longer charges the intelligent vehicle.

[0058] To implement the above function of compensating for the charging angle deviation, the above-mentioned rotation correction mechanism can be specifically set to include a bearing assembly and a mounting bracket 104. The bearing assembly is installed on the inner side of the first insulating plate 103, that is, the side away from the intelligent vehicle, through the mounting bracket 104; the bearing assembly is connected to the first insulating plate 103, and the bearing assembly can make the first insulating plate 103 rotate around the vertical axis.

[0059] Specifically, the bearing assembly can be specifically set to include a bearing 106 and a rotating pin 105. Among them, the first insulating plate 103 can be fixedly connected to the rotating pin 105 through the mounting bracket 104, and the rotating pin 105 and the guiding mechanism that can make the first charging interface assembly 11 perform telescopic movement in the horizontal direction can be sleeved through the bearing 106. In this way, the first insulating plate 103 can rotate around the axis of the bearing 106. When there is a deviation in the charging angle between the intelligent vehicle and the first charging interface assembly 11, for example, when the second charging interface assembly 21 is not parallel to the first charging interface assembly 11, the setting of the bearing 106 can make the first charging interface assembly 11 rotate to adapt to the angle of the vehicle body 2.

[0060] Of course, according to actual needs, the charging device can also be provided with two floating springs 107 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bearing assembly. Any one of the floating springs 107 is connected to the inner side wall of the first insulating plate 103. The functions of the two floating springs 107 are as follows: First, the existence of the elastic force of the floating spring 107 can more effectively ensure the adaptive rotation of the first insulating plate 103; Second, the setting of the floating spring 107 can ensure the full contact of the two charging interface assemblies; Third, when the vehicle body 2 finishes charging and leaves, the existence of the elastic force can make the first insulating plate 103 reset for the next charging use.

[0061] To optimize the above embodiments, the charging device may further include an elastic telescopic mechanism, which is connected to the rotation correction mechanism. When the first charging interface assembly 11 is connected to the second charging interface assembly 21 for charging, the elastic telescopic mechanism is used to make the first charging interface assembly 11 perform telescopic movement in the horizontal direction, so as to further achieve a tight connection between the first charging interface assembly 11 and the second charging interface assembly 21, ensuring the stability and reliability of charging.

[0062] Of course, the elastic telescopic mechanism may specifically be set to include a guiding mechanism and a tension spring 111. Among them, the guiding mechanism is used for the first charging interface assembly 11 to perform telescopic movement in the horizontal direction; the tension spring 111 is connected to the guiding mechanism and is used to limit the guiding mechanism. Of course, the guiding mechanism may be set to include a support 109, a guiding sleeve 110, a guiding column 108, and a connecting block 112. Among them, the support 109 may be arranged on the cabinet of the charging cabinet 1, two guiding sleeves 110 are fixedly connected to the support 109, two guiding columns 108 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the tension spring 111 and can perform telescopic movement relative to the guiding sleeve 110, and the guiding sleeve 110 and the guiding column 108 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence; the connecting block 112 is arranged horizontally and perpendicular to the tension spring 111, the connecting block 112 is connected to the ends of the two guiding columns 108, one end of the tension spring 111 is connected to the center position of the side wall of the support 109, and the other end is connected to the side of the connecting block 112 close to the support 109.

[0063] In this way, when the intelligent vehicle gradually approaches the charging cabinet 1 and after the first charging interface assembly 11 is connected to the second charging interface assembly 21, under the action of the elastic telescopic mechanism, the intelligent vehicle can continue to move forward for a certain distance until it encounters a stop block and stops moving forward. During this process, the tension spring 111 of the elastic telescopic mechanism will be stretched by force, and the elastic force of the tension spring 111 will act between the control conduction pin 102 and the charging current pin 101 of the first charging interface assembly 11, and the charging control connection block 202 and the charging block 201 of the second charging interface assembly 21, so as to ensure the tightness of the charging connection and ensure the normal operation of the control circuit and the charging circuit.

[0064] On the above basis, when the vehicle body 2 enters the charging position, the vehicle body 2 can be fixed by setting a limit block assembly, thereby preventing the vehicle body 2 from exceeding the preset charging range. Specifically, the limit block assembly may include two front stop blocks 3 and two anti-reverse blocks 4. Among them, the two front stop blocks 3 are arranged in the advancing direction of the vehicle body 2 and are used to contact and resist the front wheels to prevent the vehicle body 2 from continuing to advance; the two anti-reverse blocks 4 are arranged on the side of the front stop block 3 away from the charging cabinet 1 and are used to contact and resist the rear wheels to prevent the vehicle body 2 from retreating.

[0065] In this way, when the trolley moves forward according to the navigation or other means, it can stop moving forward after the front wheels touch the front stop block 3. At the same time, under the action of the anti-backward block 4, the trolley can have a limit point in both the front and rear directions. Such a setting can fix the vehicle body 2 within the preset charging area. Of course, the height of the front stop block 3 can be set higher than that of the anti-backward block 4, and the specific height setting can be adjusted according to actual needs, provided that it can ensure that the vehicle body 2 can cross the anti-backward block 4 but cannot cross the front stop block 3.

[0066] In addition, the intelligent trolley can also be provided with a navigation system. The navigation system can refer to the prior art, and the charging side of the intelligent trolley can be set at the front side, or the rear side, or the side. To sum up, the charging process of the above intelligent trolley can be specifically set as follows: First, the intelligent trolley reaches the position of the charging cabinet 1 according to the navigation system and straightens the vehicle body 2 and slowly enters the parking area; then, the intelligent trolley reaches the area formed by the limit block assembly and positions the wheels. During this process, the intelligent trolley compresses the first charging interface assembly 11, so that the first charging interface assembly 11 is in full contact connection with the second charging interface assembly 21; furthermore, the intelligent trolley detects the state of automatic charging, controls the conduction of the relay 13 in the charging cabinet 1 by controlling the connection between the conduction needle 102 and the charging control connection block 202, and charges the intelligent trolley through the charging circuit; finally, according to the system task or when the battery is fully charged, the intelligent trolley first disconnects through the control circuit to disconnect the relay 13 in the charging cabinet 1, so as to disconnect the connection with the charging power supply, and the trolley can leave the charging position.

[0067] It should be noted that in this specification, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity from several other entities, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities.

[0068] The charging device of the intelligent trolley provided by the present invention has been introduced in detail above. Specific examples are used in this article to elaborate on the principle and implementation manner of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and its core idea of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and modifications can be made to the present invention, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
