[0034] An outdoor charging pile with a protective structure of the present invention includes three parts: a device shell 1, a charging pile body 402 and a protective mechanism. The device shell 1 is arranged below the ground and kept level with the ground, providing a concealed storage space for the charging pile body 402; one end of the charging pile body 402 is rotatably arranged inside the device shell 1. When not in use, the charging pile body 402 can be rotated to a horizontal position, and the rotating plate is rotated to above the charging pile body 402 to be in a storage state; when it is needed, one side of the rotating plate is rotated, and then the rotating motor drives the charging pile body 402, and extends it through the storage port 101 to above the ground for vehicle charging.
[0035] When the vehicle is about to hit the charging pile due to improper operation, it will first touch the contact plate 507 on the ground, causing it to move. The contact plate 507 is connected to the trigger rod 505 through the slide bar 504, and the trigger rod 505 is located on the side of the device housing 1 close to the charging pile body 402. Once the contact plate 507 is subjected to external force, it will drive the slide bar 504 to slide in the slide groove 501, thereby pushing the trigger rod 505 to contact and push one side of the charging pile body 402. At this time, the charging pile body 402 is quickly rotated back to the inside of the device housing 1 under the push of the trigger rod 505, and contacts the buffer seat below it, reducing the force it receives from the collision, thereby avoiding direct collision with the vehicle and achieving an effective protection effect.
