DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0017] like Figure 1-4As shown, an electric vehicle charging pile with a detection function includes a charging box 1 with a charging device installed inside. The charging pile has standard electric vehicle charging functions, including fast charging and slow charging modes, to meet the needs of different users. The charging interface should comply with national standards to ensure compatibility with various electric vehicles. A display is provided on the charging box 1, and a groove extending forward and backward is provided on the ground on the left side of the charging box 1. An electric telescopic rod 5 that can be extended forward and backward is provided in the groove. A vehicle bottom detection component 6 is provided at the front end of the electric telescopic rod 5. A rack 13 is provided in parallel on the right side of the electric telescopic rod 5, and the front end of the rack 13 is connected to the rear of the electric telescopic rod 5 through a connecting rod; the front side of the charging box 1 is rotatably connected to the box door 2 through a rotating vertical shaft 9, and the lower end of the rotating vertical shaft 9 extends to the bottom of the charging box 1 and is rotatably connected to a bearing seat 11 fixed to the ground, and the rotating vertical shaft 9 is provided with a gear meshing with the rack 13. The transmission gear of the box door 2 is hung with a charging gun 7 inside; the underbody detection assembly 6 includes a U-shaped bracket 14 extending forward and backward and opening forward, and the front end of the U-shaped bracket 14 is provided with a rotating horizontal axis with a torsion spring, and the rotating horizontal axis is connected to a long support plate 15, and the upper end of the support plate 15 is rotatably connected to a support seat 16 that can be embedded in the U-shaped bracket 14, and the support seat 16 is provided with a thermal imaging camera, an infrared temperature probe, and an infrared camera connected to the display signal, and the lower end of the support plate 15 is connected to a limit block 17 that can touch the front side wall of the groove at the end of the travel of the electric telescopic rod 5. Pedals 4 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the groove, and a start switch that can be closed when both wheels are pressed on the pedal 4 is arranged below the pedal 4. The start switch and the electric telescopic rod 5, the thermal imaging camera, the infrared temperature probe, and the infrared camera form a closed loop.

[0018] The support plate 15 is a plate body with a C-shaped cross section and an opening facing backwards. The front end of the support seat 16 is rotatably connected to the middle part of the support plate 15, and the front side of the limit stopper 17 is provided with an arc surface. A reel 8 is provided at the lower part of the charging box 1, and a cable connected to the charging gun 7 is wound on the reel 8. A protective cover 3 located above the electric telescopic rod 5 is provided at the rear of the groove. The transmission gear includes a driven gear 10 and an intermediate gear 12. The driven gear 10 is provided on the rotating vertical shaft 9 between the bearing seat 11 and the bottom of the charging box 1, and the intermediate gear 12 is located between the rack 13 and the driven gear 10, and the intermediate gear 12 is meshed with the rack 13 and the driven gear 10 respectively.

[0019] When the electric vehicle needs to be charged, the electric vehicle is parked in the parking space on the left side in front of the charging box 1. When the two wheels of the electric vehicle are pressed on the pedal 4 at the same time, the start switch is closed, so that the closed circuit is energized, and the electric telescopic rod 5 extends forward, and the electric telescopic rod 5 pushes the vehicle bottom detection component 6 forward along the groove. When the vehicle bottom detection component 6 is pushed to the front end of the groove, the limit block 17 touches the side wall of the front end of the groove. Since the limit block 17 is squeezed by the side wall of the groove, the rear end of the support plate 15 rotates around the horizontal axis of rotation and tilts upward, and the support seat 16 also flips to a horizontal state. The thermal imaging camera, infrared temperature probe, and infrared camera on the support seat 16 transmit the image and temperature information of the bottom of the vehicle to the display. The owner can see the real-time picture of the bottom of the vehicle through the display, and can also observe the abnormal heating of the bottom of the vehicle. The display can automatically identify whether there is an abnormality under the vehicle, such as oil leakage, damage or foreign matter, through image processing or data analysis technology. When the electric telescopic rod 5 extends forward, it drives the rack 13 to move forward. Through the transmission of the intermediate gear 12 and the driven gear 10, the rotating vertical shaft 9 is driven to rotate, thereby opening the box door 2. The owner can remove the charging gun 7 to charge. After charging is completed, the owner hangs the charging gun 7 on the box door 2 again, and the microprocessor in the display controls the electric telescopic rod 5 to retract backward. After the limit block 17 is not squeezed by the side wall of the groove, the rotating horizontal axis is under the action of the torsion spring, and the rear end of the support plate 15 is turned downward, and finally the support seat 16 is buckled in the gap in the U-shaped bracket 14 to protect the electronic equipment. Finally, the electric telescopic rod 5 pulls the bottom detection component 6 backward along the groove into the protective cover 3. At the same time, the rack 13 moves backward, driving the box door 2 to close, so that the equipment in the charging box 1 is not exposed to the outside, which plays a protective role and prolongs the service life of the charging pile. The charging pile is equipped with a touch screen or voice control system, and the user can start the bottom inspection function through simple operation. The inspection results can be displayed on the screen in real time or transmitted to the user's mobile phone APP via a wireless network. The charging pile also has good waterproof, dustproof and anti-collision performance, ensuring normal operation in various environments. At the same time, the charging pile also has safety functions such as overload protection and short circuit protection to ensure the safety of users and vehicles.

[0020] The above is only a preferred implementation of this patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of this patent. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the scope of protection of this patent.
