[0047] An electric vehicle refers to a vehicle that uses an on-vehicle power source and is driven by an electric motor to travel, meeting the requirements of road traffic and safety regulations. With the gradual increase in global environmental awareness, the popularity rate of electric vehicles is also gradually increasing. However, since electric vehicles need to be recharged for energy replenishment, currently, how to charge electric vehicles is an important issue and also a major problem hindering the popularization of electric vehicles.
[0048] Existing charging sockets are very inconvenient to replace. If a damaged charging socket needs to be replaced, the entire cable needs to be removed, then the damaged charging socket is cut off, and the entire charging socket is replaced again. During the repair, we also found that the terminals of the charging socket are very easy to wear, while other parts are in good condition. However, when repairing and replacing, other effective components of the socket have to be discarded, resulting in a huge waste. As a result, the maintainability of this kind of product of the charging socket is very poor, the maintenance efficiency is low, and the maintenance cost of the charging socket is greatly increased.
[0049] It should be understood that in this embodiment, the charging socket can be provided on the electric vehicle and electrically connected to the battery of the electric vehicle, and the battery of the electric vehicle is charged by electrically connecting the charging socket and the charger. In other alternative implementation manners, the charging socket can also be provided on the charging pile.
[0050] Figure 1 It is an exploded view of the charging socket for vehicles according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the charging socket for vehicles according to an embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the charging socket for vehicles includes: a main body 10, a terminal housing 20, terminals 30, a fixing member 40, and a lock washer 50.
[0051] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the main body of the charging socket for vehicles according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 It is a schematic structural diagram of the first part of the main body of the charging socket for vehicles according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 It is a schematic structural diagram of the second part of the main body of the charging socket for vehicles according to an embodiment of the present invention. As Figures 1 - 5 shown, the main body 10 is composed of a first part 11, a second part 12, and a cover plate 13. The first part 11 and the second part 12 can be detachably connected by a buckle 15, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown. Designing the main body 10 into a structure in which the first part 11 and the second part 12 are detachably connected can facilitate the installation of the main body 10. At the same time, when only the first part 11 or the second part 12 is damaged, the damaged part can also be replaced correspondingly, reducing the maintenance cost. When there is no charging, the cover plate 13 covers the terminals, playing a role in waterproofing and dustproofing, and can protect the terminals. In this embodiment, the cover plate 13 is hinged to the main body 10. In other alternative implementation manners, the cover plate 13 can also be separated from the main body 10.
[0052] The main body 10 includes a plurality of terminal slots 14, and the terminal slots 14 can be used to fix different types of terminals. In this embodiment, the terminals include a DC positive terminal and a DC negative terminal, and the DC positive terminal and the DC negative terminal are located in two larger terminal slots 14 in the middle. After being electrically connected to the terminals on the charger through a plurality of terminals, a charging circuit is formed to charge the battery of the electric vehicle.
[0053] As Figures 6 - 8 and Figures 13 - 14As shown, the terminal housing 20 is detachably assembled within the main body 10. The terminal housing 20 includes a receiving cavity 21, and a assembling hole 211 is provided at the bottom of the receiving cavity 21. In this embodiment, the assembling hole 211 is a threaded hole with internal threads, and the fixing member 40 is a screw. The fixing member 40 is detachably screwed into the assembling hole 211. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the terminal housing 20 cooperates with two relatively large terminal slots 14 in the main body 10 and is fixed in the terminal slots 14. An outwardly protruding first limiting portion 16 is provided on the outer periphery of the terminal housing 20, and an inwardly protruding second limiting portion 22 is provided on the inner wall of the terminal slot 14. The outer diameter of the first limiting portion 16 is greater than the inner diameter of the second limiting portion 22, and the first limiting portion 16 and the second limiting portion 22 cooperate to define the relative positions of the terminal housing 20 and the terminal slot 14. The bottom of the terminal housing 20 is electrically connected to the battery of the electric vehicle.
[0054] A part of the terminal 30 is disposed within the receiving cavity 21, including a bottom portion having a through hole 311, and the through hole 311 is correspondingly disposed with the assembling hole 211. In this embodiment, the two terminals 30 are respectively a DC positive terminal and a DC negative terminal. In other alternative implementation manners, the terminals may also be of other types.
[0055] The fixing member 40 passes through the through hole 311 and cooperates with the assembling hole 211 to detachably connect the terminal 30 and the main body 10.
[0056] In this embodiment, by providing the through hole 311 at the bottom of the terminal 30 and then cooperating the fixing member 40 with the assembling hole 211 in the terminal housing 20, the terminal 30 and the terminal housing 20 are detachably connected. When the terminal 30 is damaged, the terminal 30 can be replaced by removing the fixing member 40, making the terminal 30 easy to replace, reducing the maintenance cost while reducing the maintenance time.
[0057] The terminal 30 includes an inner housing 31 and a return spring 32. The inner housing 31 includes a cylindrical side wall, and a limiting protrusion 314 is provided at a predetermined position on the outer periphery of the side wall of the inner housing 31. The limiting protrusion 314 is annular, and the lower end surface of the limiting protrusion 314 cooperates with the upper end surface of the terminal housing 20, as Figure 8 、 Figure 13 and Figure 14 shown. Thus, the part of the inner housing 31 located below the limiting protrusion 314 is placed within the terminal housing 20.
[0058] A first card slot 312 is provided inside the side wall of the inner shell 31. In this embodiment, the first card slot 312 is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the inner shell 31. The anti-loosening spring 50 is disposed inside the terminal 30, on one side of the fixing member 40, and the anti-loosening spring 50 is used to limit the fixing member 40. Specifically, the anti-loosening spring 50 is in interference fit with the first card slot 312. Specifically, the anti-loosening spring 50 is S-shaped and is specifically formed by bending a spring wire. The first card slot 312 is an annular groove, and the dimension of the groove along the axial direction is basically equal to or slightly larger than the diameter of the spring wire. The diameter of the groove is basically equal to or slightly smaller than the dimension of the anti-loosening spring 50. That is to say, the distance between the two vertices of the S-shaped spring is basically greater than the inner diameter of the inner shell 31 and is basically equal to or slightly larger than the diameter of the groove. The S-shaped spring can be put into the first card slot 312 only after forming a certain deformation. After the anti-loosening spring 50 is put into the first card slot 312, it returns to its initial state and is clamped into the first card slot 312, so that the anti-loosening spring 50 will not fall off from the first card slot 312. The S-shaped anti-loosening spring 50 has the advantages of small volume and convenient installation.
[0059] Both ends of the anti-loosening spring 50 are placed in the first card slot 312, and the middle part of the anti-loosening spring 50 has a bent limiting part 51. The bent limiting part 51 is the middle part of the S shape, the bent limiting part 51 corresponds to one side of the fixing member 40, and the bent limiting part 51 presses against the fixing member 40. By applying an axial pressure to the fixing member 40 through the anti-loosening spring 50, the pressure between the thread of the fixing member 40 and the thread of the assembly hole 211 is increased, and further the friction force during the rotation of the fixing member 40 in the horizontal direction is increased, so that the fixing member 40 can be prevented from loosening.
[0060] As Figure 8 and Figure 9 shown, in an optional implementation manner, the position of the first card slot 312 is higher than the upper surface of the fixed fixing member 40. That is to say, the bent limiting part 51 is a region where the middle part of the anti-loosening spring 50 is recessed downward, and the middle part of the anti-loosening spring 50 and the upper surface of the fixing member 40 are in contact.
[0061] As Figure 10 shown, in another optional implementation manner, the position of the first card slot 312 is lower than the upper surface of the fixed fixing member 40. That is to say, the middle part of the anti-loosening spring 50 bulges upward, the bent limiting part 51 is a region where the middle part of the anti-loosening spring 50 bulges upward, and the anti-loosening spring 50 and the outer periphery of the upper surface of the fixing member 40 are in contact.
[0062] As Figure 11 shown, the bent limiting part 51 corresponds to one side of the fixing member 40 and has a spacing from the fixing member 40. And Figure 9 and Figure 10Compared with the implementation shown, the anti-loosening spring 50 of the present application is basically horizontal, without upward protrusions or downward depressions, and has a relatively simple shape. When the fixing member 40 moves axially upward by more than the distance between the bending limiting portion 51 and the fixing member 40, the anti-loosening spring 50 abuts against the fixing member 40 to prevent the fixing member 40 from moving axially upward by too large a distance and disengaging from the assembly hole.
[0063] It should be understood that in other alternative implementations, the anti-loosening spring 50 can also be of other shapes, such as spiral etc.
[0064] As Figures 13 - 14 shown, the bottom of the receiving cavity 21 has a positioning ring 212 protruding inward, and the bottom of the inner shell 31 is provided with a positioning boss 315 cooperating with the positioning ring 212 on the outer side direction. That is to say, the positioning ring 212 at the bottom of the receiving cavity 21 makes the inner diameter of the bottom of the receiving cavity 21 smaller than the inner diameter of the upper part of the receiving cavity 21, so that the receiving cavity 21 is a stepped hole. The bottom of the inner shell 31 has a positioning boss 315 cooperating with the positioning ring 212. Through the cooperation of the positioning ring 212 and the positioning boss 315, the inner shell 31 and the terminal housing 20 are basically coaxial. At the same time, the through hole 311 and the positioning boss 315 are coaxial, and the assembly hole 211 and the positioning ring 212 are coaxial. Through the cooperation of the positioning ring 212 and the positioning boss 315, the through hole 311 and the assembly hole 211 can also be basically coaxial, playing a positioning role.
[0065] As Figure 15 shown, the torsion spring 32 includes: a first connection ring 321, a second connection ring 322, and a spring piece 323. Both ends of the spring piece 323 are fixedly connected to the first connection ring 321 and the second connection ring 322 respectively. The spring piece 323 is a strip-shaped with a middle portion recessed inward. The spring piece 323 has a predetermined angle with the axis, and a plurality of the spring pieces 323 are arranged at intervals.
[0066] The torsion spring 32 is used for electrical connection with the charger. The diameter of the male terminal of the charger is slightly larger than the diameter of the middle portion of the torsion spring 32. The male terminal is inserted into the torsion spring 32, squeezing the spring piece 323, so that the charger and the socket are electrically connected. Since the spring piece 323 is inclined, the contact area between the torsion spring 32 and the male terminal can be increased, and thus the stability of the electrical connection between the socket and the male terminal can be improved.
[0067] A second card slot 313 is provided in the side wall of the inner shell 31. The second card slot 313 is located above the first card slot 312, and the second card slot 313 and the first card slot 312 are spaced apart by a predetermined distance. The torsion spring 32 is disposed in the second card slot 313. The outer diameter of the first connecting ring 321 is greater than the inner diameter of the inner shell 31 and less than or equal to the inner diameter of the second card slot 313, and the second connecting ring 322 has the same size as the first connecting ring 321. The axial dimension of the second card slot 313 is greater than or equal to the axial dimension of the torsion spring 32.
[0068] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the anti-tentacle protection cap 70 has a central hole 71 and is fixedly connected to the upper end of the terminal 30. The anti-tentacle protection cap 70 is made of an insulating material, which can prevent the operator from touching the conductive part and getting an electric shock. Through the cooperation of the anti-tentacle protection cap 70 and the second card slot 313, a space is formed between the lower surface of the anti-tentacle protection cap 70 and the second card slot 313, and the axial dimension of the space is substantially equal to the axial dimension of the torsion spring 32. The torsion spring 32 is fixed in the second card slot 313 by the anti-tentacle protection cap 70.
[0069] As Figure 8 and Figure 16 shown, the vehicle charging socket further includes a conductive ring spring 60. The conductive ring spring 60 is disposed between the inner shell 31 and the terminal housing 20 and is electrically connected to the inner shell 31 and the terminal housing 20 respectively.
[0070] Specifically, the conductive ring spring 60 is in a spiral circular ring shape.
[0071] As Figure 16 shown, in another alternative implementation, the conductive ring spring 60 is formed in a circular ring shape in a spiral manner. In this embodiment, the cross section of the conductive ring spring 60 is circular. In other alternative implementations, the end face of the spring may also be elliptical or square, etc.
[0072] In this embodiment, the conductive ring spring 60 arranged in a spiral manner can have multiple contact points, so as to form a stable electrical connection between the inner shell 31 and the terminal housing 20.
[0073] As Figure 8 and Figure 14 shown, the inner peripheral wall of the accommodation cavity 21 includes an annular fixing groove 213, and the conductive ring spring 60 is disposed in the accommodation space surrounded by the fixing groove 213 and the side wall of the inner shell 31. The conductive ring spring 60 is in interference fit with the accommodation space. The accommodation space and the conductive ring spring 60 are in interference fit. The side wall of the accommodation space compresses the conductive ring spring 60, so that the conductive ring spring 60 gives a certain reaction force to the side wall of the accommodation space, making the contact between the conductive ring spring 60 and the accommodation space more stable.
[0074] Specifically, the inner peripheral wall of the accommodation cavity 21 includes a plurality of fixing grooves 213, and the plurality of fixing grooves 213 are arranged at intervals in the axial direction. A plurality of conductive ring springs 60 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the terminal 30 on the inner peripheral wall of the accommodation cavity 21 and are electrically connected to the torsion spring 32. Specifically, the conductive ring spring 60 electrically connects the terminal housing 20 and the inner housing 31, and the torsion spring 32 and the inner housing 31 are electrically connected, so that the terminal housing 20 and the torsion spring 32 are electrically connected. The terminal housing 20 is electrically connected to the charging circuit of the battery. Therefore, when the male terminal of the charger is electrically connected to the torsion spring 32, the charging circuit of the battery is electrically connected to the power supply, thereby charging the battery.
[0075] In this embodiment, arranging a plurality of conductive ring springs 60 along the axial direction can further increase the contact points and improve the stability of the electrical connection between the inner housing 31 and the terminal housing 20.
[0076] An embodiment of the present invention provides a charging socket for a vehicle. By providing through holes at the bottom of the terminal and providing assembly holes at the bottom of the terminal housing, the fixing member passes through the through holes and is assembled with the assembly holes in a matching manner, so that the terminal and the main body are detachably connected through the fixing member. By using the structure with a replaceable terminal, the maintenance cost and maintenance time can be reduced; it should be further noted that the present invention further provides a anti-loosening spring to avoid loosening of the screw fixing member and to stabilize the assembly between the terminal housing and the terminal.
[0077] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
