[0003] In the prior art, the charging gun itself is heavy, and manual operation also requires the weight of the charging cable. When plugging and unplugging, the operator needs to bear the weight of the charging gun and apply lateral force to plug and unplug, making the operation more difficult. At the same time, since the operator needs to hold the charging gun and plug it into the charging port of the vehicle, it is easy to be plugged in loosely, resulting in poor charging stability.

[0004] In addition, when charging equipment is used in large commercial vehicles, it is often necessary to plug many charging guns into one vehicle, and the operator is required to plug and unplug the charging guns one by one, which greatly increases the difficulty of charging and reduces the charging efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, how to ensure charging stability while improving charging convenience has become a technical problem that needs to be urgently solved by technical personnel in this field. Summary of the invention

[0038] The core of the present invention is to provide an auxiliary device for charging equipment to improve the convenience of charging while ensuring the stability of charging.

[0039] Another core of the present invention is to provide a charging device having the above auxiliary device for charging device.

[0040] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0041] like Figure 1As shown, an embodiment of the present invention discloses an auxiliary device for charging equipment, including a fixed platform 100, a lifting mechanism 200 and a moving mechanism 300. It should be noted that in the prior art, a general 250A, 7-meter-long charging gun 402 can weigh 50 to 60 kilograms, and for large commercial vehicles, the weight of the charging gun 402 will be heavier. Since the charging gun 402 itself is heavy, manual operation also needs to bear the weight of the charging line, and when plugging and unplugging, the operator needs to bear the weight of the charging gun 402 and apply lateral force to plug and unplug, which makes it difficult for the operator to operate. At the same time, since the operator needs to hold the charging gun 402 and plug it into the charging port of the vehicle, it is easy to be plugged in loosely, resulting in poor charging stability. In addition, when the charging equipment is used in large commercial vehicles, it is often necessary to plug a lot of charging guns 402 into one vehicle, and the operator needs to plug and unplug the charging guns 402 in turn, which greatly increases the difficulty of charging and reduces the charging efficiency. The auxiliary device for charging equipment disclosed in the present invention fixes the charging gun 402 in the mounting hole 101 of the fixing platform 100, aligns the charging gun 402 with the charging port of the vehicle through the moving mechanism 300 and the lifting mechanism 200, and pushes or pulls the charging gun 402 on the fixing platform 100 through the operating handle 103 to achieve the plugging and unplugging of the charging gun 402, so that the operator does not need to hold the charging gun 402 for charging, reducing the risk of loose plugging, thereby improving the convenience of charging while ensuring the stability of charging.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, a mounting hole 101 is provided on the fixing platform 100, and a charging gun 402 is fixed in the mounting hole 101. The charging gun 402 is connected to the charging port of the vehicle to charge the vehicle. An operating handle 103 is provided on the fixing platform 100 for the operator to move the fixing platform 100, and a lifting mechanism 200 is connected to the fixing platform 100 to adjust the vertical position between the charging gun 402 and the charging port of the vehicle. At the same time, the lifting mechanism 200 is provided on the moving mechanism 300, and the horizontal position between the charging gun 402 and the charging port of the vehicle is adjusted by the moving mechanism 300.

[0043] When the vehicle needs to be charged, the auxiliary device with the charging gun 402 fixed thereon is removed from the storage slot 401 of the charging pile 400. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the auxiliary device is moved to the position of the charging port of the vehicle through the moving mechanism 300, and the vertical position of the charging gun 402 and the charging port is adjusted through the lifting mechanism 200, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, until the charging gun 402 is aligned with the charging port, the operator holds the operating handle 103 and pushes the auxiliary device toward the charging port. The side wall of the mounting hole 101 applies an inward thrust to the charging gun 402, so that the charging gun 402 is plugged into the charging port. After ensuring that the plug is firmly connected, the vehicle is charged. Fig. 9 As shown; when the vehicle is fully charged, the operator holds the operating handle 103 and pulls the auxiliary device away from the charging port. The side wall of the mounting hole 101 applies an outward pulling force to the charging gun 402 until the charging gun 402 is separated from the charging port. At this time, the auxiliary device can be restored to its initial height and moved into the storage slot 401 of the charging pile 400, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown.

[0044] The auxiliary device for charging equipment disclosed in the present invention is provided with a mounting hole 101 on a fixing platform 100, and a charging gun 402 is fixed in the mounting hole 101. When the vehicle needs to be charged, the auxiliary device is moved to the position of the charging port of the vehicle through the moving mechanism 300, and the vertical position of the charging gun 402 and the charging port is adjusted through the lifting mechanism 200 until the charging gun 402 and the charging port are aligned. At this time, the operator holds the operating handle 103 to push the auxiliary device in the direction of the charging port, and the side wall of the mounting hole 101 applies an inward thrust to the charging gun 402, so that the charging gun 402 is plugged into the charging port, and after ensuring that the plugging is firm, the vehicle is charged; when the vehicle is fully charged, the operator holds the operating handle 103 to pull the auxiliary device away from the charging port, and the side wall of the mounting hole 101 applies an outward pulling force to the charging gun 402 until the charging gun 402 is separated from the charging port. At this time, the auxiliary device can be restored to its initial height and moved into the storage slot 401 of the charging pile 400.

[0045] Compared with the prior art, the auxiliary device for charging equipment disclosed in the present invention fixes the charging gun 402 in the mounting hole 101 of the fixing platform 100, aligns the charging gun 402 with the charging port of the vehicle through the moving mechanism 300 and the lifting mechanism 200, and pushes or pulls the charging gun 402 on the fixing platform 100 through the operating handle 103 to achieve the plugging and unplugging of the charging gun 402, so that the operator does not need to hold the charging gun 402 for charging, reducing the risk of loose plugging, thereby improving the convenience of charging while ensuring the stability of charging.

[0046] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, in a specific embodiment, an operating platform 102 is vertically arranged on the fixed platform 100, and operating handles 103 are arranged on both sides of the operating platform 102, so that the operator can easily apply horizontal thrust to the fixed platform 100, thereby making it easier and more secure for the charging gun 402 to be inserted into the charging port. At the same time, a switch for controlling the lifting mechanism 200 is arranged on the operating platform 102, wherein the switch for controlling the lifting mechanism 200 includes an ascending switch 1021 and a descending switch 1022 arranged on the operating platform 102, and an on-off switch 1023 for controlling the start and shut down of the charging gun 402 is also arranged on the operating platform 102. When the auxiliary device is moved to the position of the charging port of the vehicle through the moving mechanism 300, the position of the charging gun 402 is adjusted by pressing the rising switch 1021 or the falling switch 1022 until the charging gun 402 is aligned with the charging port of the vehicle, and the fixing platform 100 is pushed by the operating handle 103 to move the auxiliary device toward the charging port until the charging gun 402 is inserted into the charging port, and after ensuring that the plug is firmly connected, the on-off switch 1023 is pressed to charge the vehicle; when the vehicle is fully charged, the on-off switch 1023 is pressed again to cut off the charging, and after ensuring safety, the operator holds the operating handle 103 and pulls the auxiliary device away from the charging port until the charging gun 402 is separated from the charging port, at which time the auxiliary device can be restored to its initial height and moved into the storage slot 401 of the charging pile 400. It should be noted that the operating handle 103 is wrapped with insulating material to ensure the safety of the operator holding the operating handle 103.

[0047] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, the lifting mechanism 200 includes a scissor support frame 201 disposed on both sides of the fixed platform 100 and a driving device 202 for driving the scissor support frame 201 to lift and lower. A reinforcing crossbeam 2011 is connected between the two scissor support frames 201 to ensure the stability of the supporting structure. Specifically, the scissor support frame 201 includes a plurality of groups of cross support rods, and the adjacent cross support rods are hinged, and at the same time, two support rods in each group of cross support rods are hinged, and the cross support rods are hinged head-to-tail to form the scissor support frame 201. The driving device 202 includes a hydraulic telescopic rod 2021 arranged on the scissor support frame 201 and a hydraulic cylinder 2022 driving the hydraulic telescopic rod 2021. The hydraulic cylinder 2022 is arranged on the moving mechanism 300. An oil pump is arranged on the hydraulic cylinder 2022. The hydraulic cylinder 2022 is connected to the hydraulic telescopic rod 2021 through an oil pipe to drive the extension and contraction of the hydraulic telescopic rod 2021, thereby driving the rise and fall of the scissor support frame 201 to adjust the vertical position of the charging gun 402. Of course, the lifting mechanism 200 can also use other devices that can realize the lifting of the fixed platform 100, which will not be listed one by one in this article.

[0048] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the mobile mechanism 300 includes a base 301 and a moving wheel 302 disposed on the base 301, the first end of the scissors support frame 201 is connected to the fixed platform 100, the second end of the scissors support frame 201 is connected to the base 301, and the hydraulic cylinder 2022 is disposed on the base 301. Specifically, as Figure 4 As shown, the hydraulic telescopic rod 2021 is fixed on the base 301, and the movable end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 2021 is hinged to the scissors support frame 201, and the hydraulic cylinder 2022 is connected to the hydraulic telescopic rod 2021 through an oil pipe, thereby providing power for the hydraulic telescopic rod 2021 to realize the lifting function of the auxiliary device.

[0049] Furthermore, if Figure 2 As shown, in a specific embodiment, there are at least two mounting holes 101, and the spacing between adjacent mounting holes 101 is equal to the spacing between adjacent charging ports. Specifically, two mounting holes 101 are provided on the fixing platform 100, and two charging guns 402 can be installed at the same time. When charging a large commercial vehicle, the two charging guns 402 can be inserted into the two charging ports of the commercial vehicle at the same time, avoiding the operator from plugging and unplugging the charging guns in sequence, greatly reducing the difficulty of charging and improving the charging efficiency. Of course, three or four mounting holes 101 can also be provided. For commercial vehicles with two charging ports far apart, the position of the charging gun 402 can be adjusted so that the two charging guns 402 can be charged at the same time. More charging guns 402 can also be installed to charge vehicles with multiple charging ports.

[0050] Furthermore, if Figure 2As shown, the charging gun 402 includes a fixed handle 4021 and a gun body 4022. The fixed handle 4021 is inserted into the mounting hole 101, and the fixed handle 4021 and the gun body 4022 are arranged at an angle so that the gun body 4022 extends out of the fixing platform 100 to prevent the fixing platform 100 from hindering the depth of the charging gun 402 inserted into the charging port, resulting in an unstable insertion and affecting the stability of charging. Specifically, a mounting seat 1011 for mounting the charging gun 402 is provided at the mounting hole 101 of the fixing platform 100. Among them, the mounting seat 1011 is an arc-shaped protrusion that fits with the fixed handle 4021 of the charging gun 402, so that when the operator holds the operating handle 103 to push the auxiliary device toward the charging port, the first side of the arc-shaped protrusion abuts against the fixed handle 4021 of the charging gun 402, thereby applying a horizontal thrust to the charging gun 402 until the charging gun 402 is firmly inserted into the charging port. The arc-shaped protrusion fits the fixed handle 4021 surface to increase the force-bearing area of ​​the charging gun 402, making the insertion of the charging gun 402 into the charging port more stable. Similarly, when the vehicle is fully charged, the operator holds the operating handle 103 to pull the auxiliary device away from the charging port. At this time, the second side of the arc-shaped protrusion abuts against the fixed handle 4021 of the charging gun 402, thereby applying a horizontal pulling force to the charging gun 402 until the charging gun 402 is separated from the charging port. It should be noted that the first side surface of the arc-shaped protrusion and the second side surface of the arc-shaped protrusion are two opposite side surfaces that fit with the fixed handle 4021 and are located in the plugging and unplugging direction of the charging gun 402 .

The auxiliary device is an auxiliary device for the charging device disclosed in the above embodiment, and therefore has all the technical effects of the above auxiliary devices, which will not be repeated herein.
