Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of AGV charging equipment technology, and in particular to an intelligent control and guidance charging device. Background Technology

[0002] AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) are computer-controlled automated transportation devices capable of autonomously traveling along predetermined paths to complete material handling tasks. AGVs are widely used in factories, warehouses, docks, and other locations, offering advantages such as improved logistics efficiency and reduced labor costs. Charging stations are devices used to charge AGVs, quickly fully charging their built-in batteries. After completing a transport task, AGVs return to the charging stations to recharge, thereby improving their range.

[0003] However, the height of the brush block module from the ground in the existing charging pile cannot be adjusted, which makes it impossible for the brush block module to accurately match the charging interface of various AGV vehicles at different heights from the ground. This makes it inconvenient to guide the charging of AGV vehicles at different heights from the ground. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to propose an intelligent control and guidance charging device, which aims to solve the problem that the height of the brush module from the ground is not adjustable.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes an intelligent control and guidance charging device, which includes a housing having a receiving cavity;

[0006] A brush block module, movably disposed within the receiving cavity, the brush block module having an insertion position extending out of the receiving cavity and a retracted position moving into the receiving cavity; and

[0007] A lifting module, comprising a lifting mechanism and a base, wherein the lifting mechanism is disposed between the outer shell and the base, and the lifting mechanism is used to drive the outer shell to lift relative to the base, thereby adjusting the height of the outer shell relative to the base.

[0008] In one embodiment, the lifting mechanism includes a first driving member and a transmission member. The first driving member is driven to connect to the transmission member, and the transmission member is driven to connect between the outer shell and the base. The first driving member is used to drive the transmission member to lift the outer shell relative to the base.

[0009] In one embodiment, the lifting module further includes a switch assembly and a detection assembly. The switch assembly is disposed on the base and electrically connected to the first driving member. The detection assembly is disposed on the housing and electrically connected to the switch assembly. The detection assembly is used to detect the distance between the housing and the base to control the switch assembly to open or close.

[0010] In one embodiment, the transmission components are configured as a plurality of transmission components, which are spaced apart between the housing and the base, and the first driving component drives and connects the plurality of transmission components.

[0011] In one embodiment, the first driving component is a drive motor, the transmission component is a screw, one end of the transmission component is threadedly connected to the outer casing via a nut, and the other end of the transmission component is rotatably connected to the base.

[0012] In one embodiment, the first driving member includes an adjusting member and a connecting member, the adjusting member being tractively connected to the connecting member, and the two ends of the connecting member being hinged to any two adjacent driving members.

[0013] In one embodiment, the intelligent control and guidance charging device further includes a power module and a main control board module. Both the power module and the main control board module are disposed in the accommodating cavity. The main control board module is located on the side of the power module away from the brush block module. The power module is electrically connected to the main control board module, the brush block module, and the lifting mechanism.

[0014] In one embodiment, the intelligent control and guiding charging device further includes a connecting frame and a third mounting frame that are connected to each other. The connecting frame is disposed on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity, and the brush block module is disposed on the third mounting frame.

[0015] In one embodiment, the intelligent control and guiding charging device further includes a second driving member, which drives and connects to the third mounting bracket. The third mounting bracket is movably disposed on the connecting bracket. The second driving member is used to drive the third mounting bracket to move relative to the connecting bracket, so as to adjust the height of the third mounting bracket relative to the connecting bracket in a first direction.

[0016] In one embodiment, the connecting frame has inclined holes on both sides of the second direction, which are inclined relative to the first direction. The third mounting frame has connecting parts on both sides of the second direction, which are movably inserted into the inclined holes. The first direction intersects the second direction.

[0017] The technical solution of this invention enhances the flexibility of the connection between the lifting mechanism and the base by employing a lifting mechanism that is rotatably connected to the base. The other end of the lifting mechanism is drive-connected to the outer casing, positioning the lifting mechanism between the outer casing and the base, thus facilitating the lifting mechanism's ability to drive the outer casing to rise and fall relative to the base. The base provides stable support for both the lifting mechanism and the outer casing, enabling the lifting mechanism to drive the outer casing to rise and fall more stably relative to the base. This allows for precise adjustment of the distance between the brush module located inside the outer casing and the ground, allowing this invention to flexibly adapt to different charging port heights of various AGV vehicles, thereby meeting the needs of various application scenarios.

[0033] AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) are computer-controlled automated transportation devices capable of autonomously traveling along predetermined paths to complete material handling tasks. AGVs are widely used in factories, warehouses, docks, and other locations, offering advantages such as improved logistics efficiency and reduced labor costs. Charging stations are devices used to charge AGVs, quickly fully charging their built-in batteries. After completing a transport task, AGVs return to the charging stations to recharge, thereby improving their range.

[0034] However, the height of the brush block module from the ground in the existing charging pile cannot be adjusted, which makes it impossible for the brush block module to accurately match the charging interface of various AGV vehicles at different heights from the ground. This makes it inconvenient to guide the charging of AGV vehicles at different heights from the ground.

[0035] This invention proposes an intelligent control and guidance charging device.

[0036] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the intelligent control and guidance charging device includes a housing 1, the housing 1 having a receiving cavity 11;

[0037] Brush block module 2, movably disposed within the receiving cavity 11, having an insertion position extending out of the receiving cavity 11 and a retracted position moving into the receiving cavity 11; and

[0038] The lifting module 3 includes a lifting mechanism 31 and a base 32. The lifting mechanism 31 is disposed between the outer shell 1 and the base 32. The lifting mechanism 31 is used to drive the outer shell 1 to lift relative to the base 32 to adjust the height of the outer shell 1 relative to the base 32.

[0039] The technical solution of this invention enhances the flexibility of the connection between the lifting mechanism 31 and the base 32 by rotatably connecting the lifting mechanism 31 and the base 32. The other end of the lifting mechanism 31 is drive-connected to the outer shell 1, positioning the lifting mechanism 31 between the outer shell 1 and the base 32, thus facilitating the lifting mechanism 31 to drive the outer shell 1 to rise and fall relative to the base 32. The base 32 provides stable support for the lifting mechanism 31 and the outer shell 1, enabling the lifting mechanism 31 to drive the outer shell 1 to rise and fall relative to the base 32 more stably. This allows for precise adjustment of the distance between the brush block module 2 located inside the outer shell 1 and the ground, allowing this application to flexibly adapt to different charging port heights of different AGV vehicles, thereby meeting the needs of various application scenarios.

[0040] In this embodiment, the outer casing 1 includes a frame, a first outer casing, and a second outer casing. The first and second outer casings surround opposite sides of the frame, forming an accommodating cavity 11 inside the outer casing 1. The other outer wall of the frame has a first opening communicating with the accommodating cavity 11. The first opening can be located at the lower part of the frame, facilitating the alignment of the brush block module 2 with the charging port on the AGV vehicle after it extends out of the first opening. It should be noted that the frame, the first outer casing, and the second outer casing are not labeled in the accompanying drawings. When the brush block 21 is in the insertion position, the entire brush block 21 is exposed outside the first opening and is inserted into the charging port on the AGV vehicle. When the brush block 21 is in the retracted position, the entire brush block 21 is housed within the accommodating cavity 11, thus preventing accidental contact due to the brush block 21 being exposed outside the first opening for an extended period. By providing the lifting module 3, which may include a lifting mechanism 31 and a base 32, the lifting mechanism 31 is rotatably connected to the base 32, thereby improving the flexibility of the connection between the lifting mechanism 31 and the base 32. The other end of the lifting mechanism 31 is connected to the housing 1 so that the lifting mechanism 31 is located between the housing 1 and the base 32. At the same time, the base 32 can stably support the lifting mechanism 31 and the housing 1, so that the lifting mechanism 31 can drive the housing 1 to rise and fall relative to the base 32 more stably, thereby adjusting the height of the brush block module 2 located in the housing 1 from the ground, so that this application can adapt to the height of the charging port of different AGV vehicles from the ground.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 31 includes a first driving member and a transmission member 311. The first driving member drives and connects to the transmission member 311. The transmission member 311 is connected to the outer shell 1 and the base 32. The first driving member is used to drive the transmission member 311 to lift and lower the outer shell 1 relative to the base 32.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first driving component (not shown) may include a manually operated driving component and a fully automatic driving component. The manually operated driving component may be a transmission screw, while the fully automatic driving component may be a drive motor or motor, thereby facilitating user adjustment of the height of the housing 1 from the ground. The user can manually drive the first driving component to rotate, thereby driving the transmission component 311 to rotate, and then the transmission component 311 drives the housing 1 to rise or fall relative to the base 32; or, the first driving component can rotate itself to drive the transmission component 311 to rotate, and then the transmission component 311 drives the housing 1 to rise or fall relative to the base 32. In addition, the height of the housing 1 relative to the base 32 can be adjusted by the lifting mechanism 31, thereby reducing the overall height of the AGV charging device from the ground, thus making it easier to transport and install.

[0043] In this embodiment, the lifting module 3 further includes a switch assembly and a detection assembly. The switch assembly is disposed on the base 32 and is electrically connected to the first driving member. The detection assembly is disposed on the housing 1 and is electrically connected to the switch assembly. The detection assembly is used to detect the distance between the housing 1 and the base 32 to control the switch assembly to open or close.

[0044] In this embodiment, the switch assembly includes an inductive switch and a first support frame. The inductive switch is mounted on the base 32 via the first support frame and is electrically connected to a first driving component. The inductive switch can be configured as a photoelectric inductive switch. The inductive switch is used to sense the position of the AGV trolley to open or close the first driving component. The detection assembly includes a height sensor and a second support frame. The height sensor is mounted on the housing 1 via the second support frame and is electrically connected to the inductive switch. The height sensor is used to detect the distance between the housing 1 and the base 32 to control the inductive switch to open or close, thereby controlling the first driving component to open or close. By employing the switch assembly and the detection assembly, the lifting mechanism 31 can automatically start or stop lifting, thereby improving the accuracy of the position of the housing 1 relative to the base 32 after lifting by the lifting mechanism 31. It should be noted that the switch assembly, inductive switch, first support frame, detection assembly, height sensor, and second support frame are not labeled in the accompanying drawings.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, multiple transmission components 311 are provided, and the multiple transmission components 311 are spaced apart between the outer shell 1 and the base 32. The first driving component drives and connects the multiple transmission components 311.

[0046] In this embodiment, four transmission components 311 are configured. One end of each component is connected at intervals to the four corners of the bottom of the outer casing 1, and the other end is connected at intervals to the four corners of the base 32. The transmission components 311 and the outer casing 1 are supported by four spaced-apart support points, making it less prone to tilting or wobbling when placed on the ground. This allows the base 32 to better support the transmission components 311 and the outer casing 1, preventing the outer casing 1 from tipping over when the brush module 2 is in the insertion position. Furthermore, the first driving component drives and connects multiple transmission components 311, facilitating synchronous rotation of the components and improving the stability of the lifting mechanism 31.

[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the first driving component is a drive motor, the transmission component 311 is a screw, one end of the transmission component 311 is threadedly connected to the outer shell 1 through a nut, and the other end of the transmission component 311 is rotatably connected to the base 32.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first driving member can be configured as a drive motor or drive motor, etc. The first driving member can simultaneously drive multiple transmission members 311 to rotate, so that the transmission members 311 rotate relative to the nut, thereby causing the transmission members 311 to gradually extend or extend into the receiving cavity 11, thereby adjusting the distance between the outer shell 1 and the base 32.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first driving member includes an adjusting member and a connecting member. The adjusting member is tractively connected to the connecting member, and the two ends of the connecting member are hinged to any two adjacent driving members 311.

[0050] In this embodiment, the adjusting member (not shown) can be configured as a transmission screw, the transmission member 311 can be configured as a diagonal rod, and there can be four transmission members 311, wherein two transmission members 311 are hinged to each other to form a first hinge (not shown), and the other two transmission members 311 are hinged to each other to form a second hinge (not shown). The connecting members may include two hinged connecting members and two fixed connecting members. One hinged connecting member has both ends hinged to one end of the transmission member 311 on the first hinge and one end of the transmission member 311 on the second hinge, and the other hinged connecting member has both ends hinged to the other end of the transmission member 311 on the first hinge and the other end of the transmission member 311 on the second hinge. One fixed connecting member has both ends hinged to one end of another transmission member 311 on the first hinge and one end of another transmission member 311 on the second hinge, and the other fixed connecting member has both ends hinged to the other end of the transmission member 311 on the first hinge and the other end of the transmission member 311 on the second hinge. Users can rotate the adjusting component to drive the hinge connector to reciprocate axially toward the adjusting component, thereby causing the first hinge and the second hinge to rise and fall along the height direction of the outer shell 1, thus facilitating the user to manually adjust the distance between the outer shell 1 and the base 32.

[0051] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the intelligent control and guidance charging device further includes a power module 4 and a main control board module 5. The power module 4 and the main control board module 5 are both located in the accommodating cavity 11. The main control board module 5 is located on the side of the power module 4 away from the brush block module 2. The power module 4 is electrically connected to the main control board module 5, the brush block module 2 and the lifting mechanism 31.

[0052] In this embodiment, to facilitate the power supply module 4 to power the brush block module 2, the intelligent control and guidance charging device also includes a converter (not shown). The converter is electrically connected to the power supply module 4 and can be electrically connected to an external power source via a three-prong plug 212. The voltage and current supplied by the external power source are regulated by the converter before supplying power to the power supply module 4. Simultaneously, the power supply module 4 supplies power to the brush block module 2 to meet its power supply requirements, thereby ensuring that the power supply module 4 can provide stable power to the brush block module 2. This application integrates the brush block module 2, the converter, and the power supply module 4 into the housing 1, allowing the user to simply plug the three-prong plug 212, which is electrically connected to the converter, into an external power source. The external power is then supplied to the converter via the three-prong plug 212 and wires. The converter regulates the current and voltage of the external power to charge the power supply module 4, which then supplies power to the brush block module 2 to charge the AGV vehicle. This avoids the need for the brush block module 2 to use an external power source connected to the charger, thereby reducing the space occupied by this application and solving the problem of the large space occupied by the AGV charging device.

[0053] In this embodiment, to further enhance the applicability and flexibility of this application, the intelligent control and guidance charging device also includes a first mounting frame 7 disposed within the accommodating cavity 11. Two power modules 4 can be configured, with the two power modules 4 spaced apart within the first mounting frame 7. One end of the first mounting frame 7 has a first notch, facilitating the electrical connection of the power module 4 to the brush block module 2 via copper busbars and wires. The main control board module 5 can be electrically connected to the brush block module 2 and the lifting module 3, thus making it easier to control the operation of the brush block module 2 and the lifting module 3 through the main control board module 5. This application can flexibly select one or two power modules 4 depending on the battery capacity used by the AGV vehicle. When the battery capacity is large, two power modules 4 can be activated simultaneously to provide greater voltage and current for charging the battery; when the battery capacity is small, only one power module 4 can be used, thereby saving the cost of this application and improving the applicability of the power module 4. This allows for adjustments based on actual needs, ensuring efficient power supply to the AGV vehicle under different conditions. Two power modules 4 are spaced apart within the first mounting bracket 7 along the width direction of the first mounting bracket 7. The first mounting bracket 7 has an air duct 71 for heat dissipation of the power modules 4, so that both power modules 4 are within the air duct 71, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation efficiency of the two power modules 4. At the same time, it reduces the space occupied by the two power modules 4 in the accommodating cavity 11, thereby improving the space utilization rate within the accommodating cavity 11.

[0054] In this embodiment, the intelligent control and guiding charging device further includes a second mounting bracket 8 for mounting the main control board module 5. The second mounting bracket 8 may include a base plate 81 and a third support bracket 82. The base plate 81 is mounted on the side of the first mounting bracket 7 away from the brush block module 2, and the third support bracket 82 is mounted on the base plate 81. The main control board module 5 includes a first electronic component 51 disposed on the base plate 81 and a second electronic component 52 disposed on the third support bracket 82. The first electronic component 51 and the second electronic component 52 are electrically connected. The first electronic component 51 is connected to the power module 4 through wires and copper busbars. A touch screen may be mounted on the outer wall of the housing 1. The second electronic component 52 may be configured as a first circuit board. The touch screen is electrically connected to the second electronic component 52, thereby facilitating the user to issue commands to the touch screen to generate command signals to the second electronic component 52. The first electronic component 51 then controls the command signals to control the brush block module 2 and the power module 4 to perform corresponding operations, thereby simplifying the operation steps of this application. The main control board module 5 also includes an anti-tilt sensor (not shown) for detecting whether the housing 1 is in a tilted state. The anti-tilt sensor can be installed on the base plate 81. When the extension and retraction position of the brush block module 2 is improper or other special circumstances cause the housing 1 to tilt or fall, the anti-tilt sensor will detect this and send a signal to the power module 4 to automatically cut off the power supply, so as to avoid electrical short circuits or sparks in the main control board module 5 or the power module 4, thereby preventing fire or electric shock accidents and improving the safety performance of this application.

[0055] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the intelligent control and guidance charging device further includes a connecting frame 6 and a third mounting frame 61 that are connected to each other. The connecting frame 6 is disposed on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 11, and the brush block module 2 is disposed on the third mounting frame 61.

[0056] In this embodiment, the brush block module 2 includes a brush block 21 and a third driving member 22 that is drivenly connected to the brush block 21. The brush block 21 includes a protective cover 211, a plug 212 and a buffer part 213. The plug 212 is disposed inside the protective cover 211. The protective cover 211 has a second opening for the plug 212 to be exposed. The buffer part 213 is disposed at the second opening. And / or, the inner sidewall of the protective cover 211 has a fireproof layer (not shown).

[0057] In this embodiment, in order to prevent users or AGV vehicles from accidentally touching the brush block 21 during its extension and retraction and thus getting an electric shock, the protective cover 211 has a receiving cavity. By placing the plug 212 inside the receiving cavity of the protective cover 211 and by providing an insulating layer on the outer wall of the protective cover 211, the metal part of the brush block 21 is completely wrapped up during the extension, retraction and charging process, thereby preventing the outside from touching the metal part of the brush block 21, thus enhancing the safety performance of this application.

[0058] In this embodiment, when the metal part of the brush block 21 is accidentally short-circuited and sparks are generated, the fireproof layer can prevent the sparks from burning inside the cavity at the source, thereby further improving the safety performance of this application.

[0059] In this embodiment, the second opening of the protective cover 211 may be provided with a plug-in portion 2111, and the buffer portion 213 has a groove corresponding to the plug-in portion 2111. The plug-in portion 2111 is inserted into the groove so that the buffer portion 213 is sleeved on the protective cover 211. This allows the brush block 21 to buffer the impact force generated by the brush block 21 against the outer wall of the AGV vehicle charging port when it is plugged into the AGV vehicle charging port, thereby avoiding damage to the brush block 21 during the connection and disconnection process with the AGV vehicle charging port.

[0060] In this embodiment, the third driving member 22 can be configured as an electric push rod or a cylinder, so that the third driving member 22 can drive the brush block 21 to move linearly in a direction close to or away from the first opening, so that the brush block 21 can be more accurately inserted into the charging port of the AGV vehicle. When the brush block 21 is in the insertion position, the entire brush block 21 is exposed outside the first opening; when the brush block 21 is in the retracted position, the entire brush block 21 is housed in the receiving cavity 11, thereby avoiding the situation where the brush block 21 is exposed outside the first opening for a long time and causes accidental contact. By setting, this application also includes a first limit switch 23 and a second limit switch 24, which can be respectively set on the brush block module 2. The first limit switch 23 can be configured as a roller-type limit switch. The contact end of the first limit switch 23 abuts against the third drive member 22. When the brush block 21 is in the inserted position, the contact end of the first limit switch 23 disconnects from the third drive member 22. The first limit switch 23 generates a first signal and feeds it back to the third drive member 22 to control the third drive member 22 to stop driving the brush block 21. When the brush block 21 is in the retracted position, the contact end of the second limit switch 24 abuts against the contact portion 2112 on the protective cover 211. The second limit switch 24 generates a second signal and feeds it back to the third drive member 22 to control the third drive member 22 to stop driving the brush block 21. This application employs a first limit switch 23 and a second limit switch 24 to precisely control the stroke of the brush block 21 extending out of the first opening to insert into the AGV vehicle charging port, as well as the stroke of its movement back to the initial position. This further improves the accuracy of the brush block 21 inserting into the AGV vehicle charging port, thereby preventing the brush block 21 from colliding with hard obstacles during its extension and improving the accuracy of the brush block 21 moving to the initial position in the receiving cavity 11. This avoids abnormal charging caused by positional deviation of the brush block 21 during its extension and retraction.

[0061] In this embodiment, the application further includes a guide component 9 and a connecting frame 6. By placing the connecting frame 6 on the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 11, and by placing both the third driving member 22 and the guide component 9 on the connecting frame 6, the stability of the brush block module 2's movement is improved. This allows the brush block 21 to be suspended within the receiving cavity 11 and aligned with the first opening, making it easier for the third driving member 22 to drive the brush block 21 to move within the receiving cavity 11. By connecting the brush block 21 with the guide component 9, the extension direction of the guide component 9 is consistent with the driving direction of the third driving member 22. The guide component 9 can restrict the brush block 21 from moving linearly along the direction of approaching or moving away from the first opening, thereby guiding the brush block 21 to extend or retract more accurately from the first opening. To improve the stability of the third driving member 22 driving the brush block 21's movement, guide components 9 can be provided on both sides of the third driving member 22.

[0062] In this embodiment, the application further includes a third mounting bracket 61 connected to the connecting bracket 6. The guide assembly 9 includes a guide rod 91 and a guide seat 92. The guide rod 91 is connected to the brush block 21, and the guide seat 92 is slidably sleeved on the guide rod 91. The third driving member 22, the guide rod 91, and the guide seat 92 are respectively installed in the third mounting bracket 61. The third mounting bracket 61 includes a fixing member 611 for fixing the third driving member 22 and a frame 612 disposed on one side of the fixing member 611. The fixing member 611 is installed on the side of the connecting bracket 6 away from the brush block 21, and the frame 612 is connected to the fixing member 611 and covers the connecting bracket 6. When the guide assembly 9 is positioned on both axial sides of the third drive member 22, the guide seat 92 is slidably sleeved on the guide rod 91 one-to-one. The two guide seats 92 are installed on the inner walls of both sides of the frame 612, so that the two guide assemblies 9 are respectively positioned on both sides of the third drive member 22. This makes it easier to adjust the relative positions between the third drive member 22, the brush block 21, and the guide assembly 9 during production, thereby making the third drive member 22 and the guide assembly 9 more stably installed on the connecting frame 6. The extension direction of the guide rod 91 is the same as the driving direction of the third drive member 22, so that the guide assembly 9 can better guide the brush block 21 to move linearly in the direction of approaching or moving away from the first opening, improving the accuracy of the brush block 21 moving to the insertion position or retraction position. The third mounting bracket 61 has a second notch 613 on the side near the first limit switch 23. The contact end of the first limit switch 23 passes through the second notch 613 and abuts against the guide rod 91, thereby making the contact end of the first limit switch 23 and the guide rod 91 on the same horizontal plane, thus allowing the first limit switch 23 to better abut against the guide rod 91 and improving the accuracy of the first signal generated by the first limit switch 23. The guide rod 91 on the side near the first limit switch 23 has a frustum portion 911 for the first limit switch 23 to abut against, and the outer wall of the frustum portion 911 may be arc-shaped. When the brush block 21 gradually moves to the insertion position, the contact end of the first limit switch 23 abuts against the frustum portion 911 and gradually moves along the outer wall of the frustum portion 911 to the end with a smaller inner diameter of the frustum portion 911, thereby causing the contact end of the first limit switch 23 to disconnect from the guide rod 91. When the brush block 21 begins to move toward the retracted position, the contact end of the first limit switch 23 starts to move from the end with the smaller inner diameter of the frustum 911 and gradually moves along the outer wall of the frustum 911 to the guide rod 91, thereby making the contact end of the first limit switch 23 re-abut against the guide rod 91, which makes it easier for the contact end of the first limit switch 23 to disconnect from the guide rod 91 or to re-abut against the guide rod 91.

[0063] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in this embodiment, the intelligent control and guiding charging device further includes a second driving member 62, which drives and connects to the third mounting bracket 61. The third mounting bracket 61 is movably disposed on the connecting bracket 6. The second driving member 62 is used to drive the third mounting bracket 61 to move relative to the connecting bracket 6, thereby adjusting the height of the third mounting bracket 61 relative to the connecting bracket 6 along the first direction. The connecting bracket 6 has inclined holes 63 on both side walls along the second direction, which are inclined relative to the first direction. The third mounting bracket 61 has connecting portions 64 on both side walls along the second direction, which are movably inserted into the inclined holes 63. The first direction intersects the second direction.

[0064] In this embodiment, the second driving member 62 drives the third mounting bracket 61, which is movably mounted on the connecting bracket 6. The second driving member 62 drives the third mounting bracket 61 to move relative to the connecting bracket 6 toward the first opening, thereby adjusting the height of the third mounting bracket 61 relative to the connecting bracket 6 along the height direction of the outer shell 1, and thus adjusting the height of the brush block 21 from the ground, so that the brush block 21 can be more accurately inserted into the charging port of the AGV vehicle. The connecting bracket 6 may have inclined holes 63 on both side walls along the width direction of the outer shell 1, which are inclined relative to the height direction of the outer shell 1. The third mounting bracket 61 may have connecting parts 64 on both side walls along the width direction of the outer shell 1, which are movably inserted into the inclined holes 63, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the third mounting bracket 61 relative to the connecting bracket 6 along the height direction of the outer shell 1.

[0065] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the intelligent control and guiding charging device further includes a first fan 53 and a filter 54. The outer casing 1 has a third opening on one side wall near the main control board module 5. The filter 54 is detachably covered on the outer side wall of the third opening away from the main control board module 5. The filter 54 is located at the third opening, and the main control board module 5 is located on the other side of the filter 54 away from the filter 54.

[0066] In this embodiment, to reduce the impact of dust on the first electronic component 51 and the second electronic component 52, and to cool down the first electronic component 51 and the second electronic component 52, a filter screen 54 is disposed on the inner wall of the third opening, facing the first electronic component 51 and the second electronic component 52. This creates a negative pressure suction force on the filter screen 54, resulting in a negative pressure inside the accommodating cavity 11. This allows dust on the first electronic component 51 and the second electronic component 52 to be drawn to the filter screen 54 and discharged into the external environment. Simultaneously, it also cools the ambient temperature around the main control board module 5, thereby improving the service life of the first electronic component 51 and the second electronic component 52.

[0067] In this embodiment, in order to remove dust from the plug 212 in a timely manner and to cool down the plug 212, the second fan 25 is disposed on the inner wall of the second opening, and a gap (not shown) is provided on the side of the protective cover 211 near the second fan 25, so that the second fan 25 delivers airflow through the gap to the plug 212, thereby blowing away the dust on the plug 212, and at the same time cooling down the ambient temperature around the plug 212.

[0068] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
