A new energy vehicle maintenance platform

Abstract

This invention belongs to the technical field of new energy vehicle repair equipment, and specifically relates to a new energy vehicle repair platform. The platform includes a base, a lifting assembly fixedly connected to the inner wall of the base, a support platform fixedly connected to the side of the lifting assembly away from the base, a wheel locking assembly on the side of the support platform away from the base, a storage seat fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support platform, a high-voltage interlock detection plug inside the storage seat, and a detection circuit module fixedly connected to the side of the support platform near the storage seat. This invention, through the high-voltage interlock detection plug and detection circuit module, automatically reads the status of the high-voltage interlock circuit before the vehicle is lifted, and the control unit determines whether the high voltage is completely disconnected.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of new energy vehicle repair equipment technology, specifically a new energy vehicle repair platform. Background Technology

[0002] Driven by the global energy structure transformation and the "dual carbon" goal, the new energy vehicle industry has achieved rapid iteration and market penetration has continued to increase. The supporting maintenance service system has ushered in opportunities for large-scale development, but it also faces higher technical challenges. Unlike the maintenance logic of traditional fuel vehicles, which is centered on the engine and transmission, the core power unit of new energy vehicles is the three-electric system. Its structural complexity and technical integration are far higher than those of traditional fuel vehicles, which puts forward stringent requirements on the professionalism and safety of the maintenance platform.

[0003] Currently, most repair platforms on the market only focus on mechanical lifting and wheel limiting functions, lacking real-time monitoring of the vehicle's high-voltage status and safety interlocking mechanisms. Before performing chassis repairs on new energy vehicles, repair personnel need to rely on themselves to determine whether the high-voltage system has been de-energized. This process is prone to subjective judgment errors, and if the inspection is forgotten or insufficient, it will bring great safety risks to the repair work. Therefore, we propose a new energy vehicle repair platform to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a new energy vehicle maintenance platform. This platform solves the problem that when maintenance personnel need to manually determine whether the high-voltage system has been de-energized before performing chassis repairs on new energy vehicles, this process is prone to subjective judgment errors, and any omission or inadequate inspection will pose a significant safety risk to the maintenance work.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a new energy vehicle maintenance platform, comprising a base, a lifting assembly fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the base, a support platform fixedly connected to the side of the lifting assembly away from the base, a wheel locking assembly provided on the side of the support platform away from the base, a storage seat fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support platform, a high-voltage interlock detection plug provided inside the storage seat, a detection circuit module fixedly connected to the side of the support platform near the storage seat, the detection circuit module being electrically connected to the high-voltage interlock detection plug via a flexible cable, and an electrical control box fixedly connected to the outer surface of the base, the electrical control box including a control unit, a drive controller, a safety interlock switch, and a wireless communication module, the detection circuit module being electrically connected to the control unit.

A hydraulic drive device is provided between the bottom frame and the connecting rod.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the output end of the hydraulic drive device is movably connected to the connecting rod, the side of the hydraulic drive device away from the output end is movably connected to the bottom frame, and the upper surface of the support frame is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support platform.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the wheel locking assembly includes a rear wheel locking block and an adjustable front wheel block, and the outer surface of the support platform is provided with an adapter groove, the size of which is adapted to the adjustable front wheel block.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a set of columns are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support platform. Each column has a device groove on one side that is close to each other. An adjustment motor is fixedly connected to the side of each column that is away from the support platform.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a status indicator light is fixedly connected to one side of the support platform near the high-voltage interlock detection plug, and a buzzer is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the electrical control box. The status indicator light is connected to the control unit, and the buzzer is connected to the control unit.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a new energy vehicle maintenance platform, which has the following beneficial effects: This new energy vehicle repair platform, through its high-voltage interlock detection plug and detection circuit module, automatically reads the status of the high-voltage interlock circuit before the vehicle is lifted. The control unit then determines whether the high voltage has been completely de-energized. If the high voltage has not been de-energized, the status indicator light and buzzer will sound an alarm, and the safety interlock switch will forcibly lock the lifting assembly, preventing it from lifting the vehicle. This effectively prevents repair personnel from accidentally entering the chassis area while the high voltage is energized. It solves the problem that repair personnel must rely on themselves to determine whether the high-voltage system has been de-energized before performing chassis repairs on new energy vehicles. This process is prone to subjective judgment errors, and any omission or inadequate inspection can pose a significant safety risk to the repair work. Attached Figure Description
