Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the booming rise of the cold chain logistics industry, refrigerated containers, as a crucial link in safeguarding the quality and safety of temperature-sensitive goods, have increasingly attracted industry attention for their effectiveness and reliability. Traditional refrigerated container technology emphasizes maintaining a constant and suitable temperature environment inside the container, which critically depends on the stable operation of the refrigeration system, and the continuous operation of this system is based on a reliable power supply. During long-distance transportation or short-term stops, traditional strategies tend to rely on external power sources (such as port facilities, warehousing centers, or portable generators) to ensure the uninterrupted operation of the refrigeration system. In this process, the safety and stability of the power supply link become of utmost importance because any power interruption or abnormal circuit can directly affect the refrigeration efficiency and thus pose a risk to the freshness and quality of the goods inside the container. Therefore, enhancing the stability and safety of the power supply system is crucial for ensuring the quality of goods throughout the cold chain logistics.

[0003] In the daily operation of refrigerated containers, ensuring the stability and safety of system operation is one of the key challenges faced by technicians. In particular, how to quickly and effectively cut off the power supply when facing a circuit fault, or maintain the connection of the relay when the circuit is unstable to prevent potential electrical disasters and protect the integrity of the goods and equipment inside the container has become a technical problem that the industry urgently needs to overcome. In addition, when a refrigerated container is connected to an external power source, the connection process of the plug cannot be ignored. The design of the plug needs to fully consider the requirements of dust and rain protection to ensure good electrical contact under various weather conditions. Before formal power supply, a detection mechanism for the plug insertion state also needs to be introduced to prevent power interruption or short circuit problems caused by poor contact and avoid unnecessary losses.

[0064] The specific implementation process is as follows: In the initial state, the annular turning plate 6 and the plug-in terminal 5 are vertical; insert the plug of the refrigerated container into the plug-in terminal 5; then push the plug-in terminal 5 and the plug of the refrigerated container centered on the rotating shaft 8 to connect the plug-in terminal 5 with the socket 2; at this time, the plug-in terminal 5, the socket 2 and the plug of the refrigerated container are all obliquely arranged relative to the fixed cylinder 1, which can effectively prevent water immersion.

[0065] The angle sensor 11 and the photoelectric switch 4 are electrically connected to the controller. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 8, the angle sensor 11 is triggered to detect the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 8; when the rotating shaft 8 rotates to the plug-in position, the plug-in terminal 5 triggers the photoelectric switch 4 to prove that the plug-in is in place; after the plug-in is in place, the telescopic member 1002 pushes the limit block 1003 into the installation cylinder 1001, and the combination of the limit block 1003 and the limit protrusion 801 prevents the rotating shaft 8 from resetting; if the photoelectric switch 4 is not triggered and the detection angle of the angle sensor 11 is normal, the relay control unit cannot be turned on, and at this time, the photoelectric switch 4 needs to be repaired.

[0066] Many other changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims.
