Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of direct current charging piles, and in particular to a direct current charging pile with a combined cooling method of air cooling and liquid cooling. Background Art

[0002] With the popularization of electric vehicles and the continuous development of fast charging technology, the current and power density that charging piles have to bear are getting higher and higher, which leads to a significant increase in the heat generated by charging piles during the charging process. In order to ensure the stable operation of charging piles and extend their service life, heat dissipation technology has become a key link in the design of charging piles.

[0003] In the prior art, there is a liquid-cooled and air-cooled integrated charging cable charging pile with publication number CN118238651B, which includes a charging pile body, a panel is rotatably connected to one side of the charging pile body, two slides are fixedly connected in the charging pile body, an adjustment slot is provided in the slide, a storage plate for loading battery packs and electrical components is fastened in the adjustment slot, and a plate rack is provided in the charging pile body. The wind plate can be controlled to rise and fall vertically and move back and forth by starting the lifting drive member, and the cold air delivered to the wind plate by the air outlet hose and the guide of the air guide can be blown to the heated battery pack and electrical components to reduce their temperature. At the same time, the oil cooling hose is arranged inside the charging cable to cool it down during charging, thereby improving the cooling effect of the charging pile when used in summer and extending the service life of the electric vehicle charging pile and the electrical components inside it.

[0004] Even if the inside of the charging pile is fully cooled, in actual use, heat is easily accumulated at the location where the cable sheath covers the multi-core wires, and it is difficult to dissipate the heat quickly at this location. This is mainly because heat is generated when current passes through the cable. Although the cable sheath has certain insulation and heat dissipation functions, in the case of high-power charging or long-term use, high temperature accumulates at the connection location between the cable and the electronic components, making it difficult to dissipate heat quickly, thereby affecting the use effect of the DC charging pile and the charging efficiency, and may still face the problem of insufficient heat dissipation.

Then the coolant enters the cavity formed by the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2 and the charging gun cable 11 through the evenly distributed liquid flow holes 20. It should be noted that two sets of connector rings 21 are respectively connected to both ends of the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2. The two sets of structures are the same, and only the liquid cooling mechanism at the connection end of the charging gun cable 11 and the cable terminal 111 is shown. At this time, the cold liquid inlet pipe 241 can be used as a cooling liquid inlet pipe or as a cooling liquid outlet pipe.

[0040] Embodiment 3, refer to the attached Figure 1-16 On the basis of the second embodiment, in order to realize the convenient installation of the air cooling mechanism: the mounting back plate 4 is detachably mounted on the inner wall of the back end of the DC charging pile body 1 by bolts, and the outer surface of the mounting back plate 4 is fixedly mounted with an air cooler 31, and the air outlet end of the air cooler 31 is sealed and connected with an air guide pipe 32, and the other end of the air guide pipe 32 is connected through the inner wall of the lower end of the air storage pipe 33, and the air storage pipe 33 is arranged on the inner side of the threading groove 3; the air storage pipe 33 is a hollow cylindrical structure, and end pipe cone blocks 331 are fixedly mounted on the inner walls of both ends of the air storage pipe 33, respectively, and the end pipe cone blocks 331 are cone-shaped structures, and the two groups of end pipe cone blocks 331 are mirror-imaged about the vertical center axis of the air storage pipe 33; air supply holes 330 are evenly opened on the inner wall of the air storage pipe 33, and spacers 332 are fixedly mounted on the inner ring side wall of the air storage pipe 33, and the spacers 332 are horizontally equidistantly staggered, and the inner wall of one side of the air storage pipe 33 is sealed and connected with the air supply pipe 34;

[0041] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 4-Figure 6As shown, a wire groove 3 is installed on the inner side of the DC charging pile body 1, which can not only accommodate the lines between the electronic components inside the DC charging pile body 1, but also realize the placement of the air storage pipe 33. By installing the back plate 4, it can be disassembled from the back side of the DC charging pile body 1, which is convenient for the wiring or maintenance of the lines inside the wire groove 3; when the air cooling work is performed at the connection between the charging gun cable 11 and the cable terminal 111, the air cooler 31 is turned on, and the cold air enters the air storage pipe 33 through the air guide main pipe 32 for buffering. At this time, part of the cold air passes through the air supply holes evenly opened on the air storage pipe 33. 330 output, can cool down the wire groove 3 and the inner line to prevent heat accumulation, and part of the cold air is transmitted through two sets of air supply pipes 34 into the connection between the DC charging pile body 1 and the cable terminal 111 surrounded by the pipe socket assembly 35, to achieve combined cooling at the connection position between the charging gun cable 11 and the electronic components; it is worth noting that evenly staggered spacers 332 are arranged inside the air storage pipe 33, which can combine external impurities and moisture to avoid corrosion of the internal components of the charging pile, extend the service life, and will not affect the normal transmission effect of cold air.

[0042] Embodiment 4, refer to the attached Figure 1-16 On the basis of the third embodiment, in order to achieve the tightness of the connection between the butt joint sleeve assembly 35 and the air supply pipe 34: the sealing tight fitting assembly includes a threaded sleeve 341, a self-tightening ring 342 and a self-tightening nut 343, the threaded sleeve 341 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the air supply pipe 34, the self-tightening ring 342 is fixedly installed on one side of the threaded sleeve 341, and reserved grooves 3420 are evenly opened on the self-tightening ring 342. The inner ring surface of the self-tightening ring 342 and the outer surface of the air supply pipe 34 are directly provided with a soft contact block 3421, and the outer surface of the self-tightening ring 342 and the self-tightening nut 343 are connected. The inner surface is threadedly adapted, and a thumb groove 3431 is provided on the outer surface of the self-tightening nut 343; the outer surface of the threaded connection tube 3511 is threadedly connected to the inner surface of the threaded sleeve 341, and one end of the threaded connection tube 3511 is fixedly connected to the annular sleeve cylinder 351, and the annular sleeve cylinder 351 and the threaded connection tube 3511 are respectively provided with two groups and the two are combined to form a cylinder, and an annular grid plate 352 is fixedly added on the outer ring side wall of the annular sleeve cylinder 351, and a windshield arc plate 353 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the annular grid plate 352 away from the threaded connection tube 3511;

[0043] In this embodiment, two groups of relatively distributed annular sleeve cylinders 351 form a complete cylinder to cover the outside of the liquid cooling protection sleeve 2. At this time, the two groups of threaded connection cylinders 3511 are synchronously combined and adapted to the inner surface threads of the threaded sleeve 341. To ensure the tightness of the connection, a self-tightening collar 342 is connected to one end of the threaded sleeve 341 and fastened by a self-tightening nut 343. Here, the soft contact block 3421 increases the tightness of the assembly and does not cause wear on the surface of the air supply pipe 34. It is worth noting that in the annular sleeve A wind shield arc plate 353 is additionally provided on the inner side of the connecting cylinder body 351. When cold air is transported through the air supply pipe 34, the cold air blows toward the surface of the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2, taking away the heat that has not been completely dissipated by the liquid cooling cycle. The inner curved wind shield arc plate 353 can block and guide the blowing cold air, thereby extending the time that the cold air stays inside the annular sleeve connecting cylinder body 351, thereby further improving the cooling effect of the connection position between the charging gun cable 11 and the cable terminal 111, and finally conducting the accumulated heat outward through the annular mesh plate 352.

[0044] Embodiment 5, refer to the attached Figure 1-16 On the basis of the fourth embodiment, in order to realize the auxiliary clamping of the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2 and the charging gun cable 11, the present embodiment adds an auxiliary contact piece: the inner annular surfaces at both ends of the pipe sleeve assembly 35 are respectively provided with a limiting arc groove 350, the auxiliary contact piece is arranged on the inner side of the limiting arc groove 350, and the auxiliary contact piece includes a limiting tube 3501 and a deformation contact plate 3507, the two ends of the limiting tube 3501 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner walls of the two sides of the limiting arc groove 350, and the outer surface of the limiting tube 3501 is slidably connected with a slider 3502, and the slider The outer side of 3502 is fixedly connected with a curved elastic wire 3503, the other end of the curved elastic wire 3503 is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the limiting arc groove 350, the outer surface of the slider 3502 is rotatably connected with a hinge block 1 3504, the outer surface of the hinge block 1 3504 is fixedly connected with a connecting rod 3505, the other end of the connecting rod 3505 is rotatably connected with a hinge block 2 3506, the hinge block 2 3506 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the deformation touch plate 3507, and the inner surface of the deformation touch plate 3507 is in active contact with the outer surface of the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2;

[0045] In this embodiment, when the two groups of annular sleeve cylinders 351 cover the liquid cooling protection sleeve 2, the deformation touch plates 3507 at both ends of the annular sleeve cylinder 351 are in contact with the surface of the liquid cooling protection sleeve 2. At this time, the deformation touch plates 3507 are pushed by the inner side to drive the two groups of connecting rods 3505 to open at an angle, and the slider 3502 moves inside the limiting arc groove 350. The curved elastic wire 3503 is compressed and deformed. After the assembly is completed, the reverse elastic force of the curved elastic wire 3503 provides a tightening force to the deformation touch plate 3507. , to ensure the tight clamping of the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2, the reason why the auxiliary contact parts are added on the inner side of the annular sleeve cylinder 351, combined with the combined cooling of the interface between the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2 and the charging gun cable 11, ensure that when the pipe sleeve assembly 35 is sleeved on the outside of the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2, it can not only meet the auxiliary clamping at the interface, but also play a certain clamping role, prevent the cable and the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2 from slipping, help maintain the stability of the charging gun cable 11, and can also reduce the wear and safety hazards caused by the shaking of the charging gun cable 11.

[0046] Embodiment 6, refer to the attached Figure 1-16 On the basis of the fifth embodiment, the present invention further provides a method for using a DC charging pile with a combined air-cooling and liquid-cooling cooling method, comprising the following steps:

[0047] Step 1: First, before charging, install the liquid cooling mechanism and the air cooling mechanism at the connection position. Before installing the air cooling mechanism, install the liquid cooling mechanism in advance, install the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2 on the outside of the charging gun cable 11, and set liquid cooling mechanisms at both ends of the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2 to realize the liquid cooling circulation of the cavity between the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2 and the outside of the charging gun cable 11, so as to take away the heat generated by charging.

[0048] Step 2, crimping between the cable terminal 111 and the terminal crimping piece 22, the charging gun cable 11 is connected to the terminal crimping piece 22, at this time, the joint ring 21 is sleeved on the outside of the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2, before the terminal crimping piece 22 is connected to the joint ring 21, firstly, the locking piece 23 is inserted from the upper end of the joint ring 21, and the locking piece 23 is adapted to be connected with the inner ring surface of the joint ring 21, and the inner cavity of the joint ring 21 is divided into two annular spaces, the buffer cavity 200 and the retention cavity 210. When the cold liquid inlet pipe 241 at one end is connected to the external cold liquid source, the cold liquid is guided into the retention cavity 210 through the cold liquid inlet pipe 241 and the guide hole 2420, and enters the buffer cavity 200 through the annular groove 230 opened on the upper inner wall of the locking piece 23, and then the coolant enters the cavity formed by the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2 and the charging gun cable 11 through the evenly distributed liquid flow holes 20;

[0049] Step 3: When the air cooling is performed at the connection between the charging gun cable 11 and the cable terminal 111, the air cooler 31 is turned on, and the cold air enters the air storage pipe 33 through the air guide pipe 32 for buffering. At this time, part of the cold air is output through the air supply holes 330 evenly opened on the air storage pipe 33, which can cool the threading groove 3 and the inner line to prevent heat accumulation, while part of the cold air is transmitted through the two sets of air supply pipes 34 into the connection between the DC charging pile body 1 and the cable terminal 111 surrounded by the pipe socket assembly 35, so as to realize the combined cooling at the connection position between the charging gun cable 11 and the electronic components;

[0050] Step 4: Two sets of relatively distributed annular sleeve cylinders 351 form a complete cylinder to cover the outside of the liquid cooling protection sleeve 2. At this time, the two sets of threaded connection cylinders 3511 are synchronously combined and adapted to the inner surface threads of the threaded sleeve 341. To ensure the tightness of the connection, a self-tightening collar 342 is connected to one end of the threaded sleeve 341 and fastened by a self-tightening nut 343. Here, the soft contact block 3421 increases the tightness of the assembly without causing wear on the surface of the air supply pipe 34. It should be noted that a wind shield arc plate 353 is additionally provided on the inner side of the annular sleeve cylinder 351. When the cold air is transported through the air supply pipe 34, the cold air blows toward the surface of the liquid cooling protective sleeve 2, taking away the heat that has not been completely dissipated by the liquid cooling cycle. The inner curved wind shield arc plate 353 here can block and guide the blowing cold wind, thereby extending the time that the cold air stays inside the annular sleeve cylinder 351, thereby further improving the cooling effect of the connection position between the charging gun cable 11 and the cable terminal 111.
