[0031] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are described below in conjunction with the drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and are not used to limit the present disclosure. In addition, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other if no conflict occurs.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, this article provides a preferred embodiment of a charging stand with an electric unlocking function, comprising:
[0033] The charging stand body 100 and the electronic lock arranged on the charging stand body 100, the outer surface of the charging stand body 100 is provided with a pressing component, the charging stand body 100 is provided with a transmission component and a circuit board 102 located below the transmission component, the circuit board 102 is provided with a trigger element 103 and a control unit (not shown in the figure) electrically connected to the trigger element 103, the control unit is electrically connected to the electronic lock, and the control unit is configured to: when the force applied to the pressing component triggers the trigger element 103 via the transmission component, control the electronic lock to unlock (it can be understood that the electronic lock rod 101 exits the locked position). In this way, electric one-button unlocking can be achieved, which is more intelligent and convenient than the existing manual unlocking methods such as pulling ropes.
[0034] Specifically, Figure 1As shown, the outer surface of the charging stand body 100 is provided with a first opening 104, and the pressing assembly includes an elastic member 200 covering the first opening 104 and a key body 300 located on the elastic member 200, and the key body 300 receives the force to deform the elastic member 200 and drive the transmission assembly to move to trigger the trigger element 103. Therefore, due to the elastic force characteristics of the elastic member 200, the operator presses the key body 300 to deform the elastic member 200, and then the key body 300 moves downward to a certain degree of slight displacement, which can drive the transmission assembly to trigger the trigger element 103.
[0035] More specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the elastic member 200 includes a flat support portion 201 , a second opening 202 is provided in the flat support portion 201 , and the button body 300 at least partially protrudes downward from the second opening 202 to contact the upper surface of the transmission assembly.
[0036] More specifically, the transmission assembly includes a support frame 400 disposed in the charging base body 100 and a guide rod 401 supported in the support frame 400, the lower surface of the button body 300 abuts against the upper surface of the guide rod 401, and the lower surface of the guide rod 401 abuts against the upper surface of the trigger element 103.
[0037] Therefore, after the button body 300 is displaced downward by the force of the operator, the force is transmitted in sequence to the lower surface of the button body 300, the upper surface of the guide rod 401, the lower surface of the guide rod 401, and finally acts on the upper surface of the trigger element 103 to trigger the trigger element 103.
[0038] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the guide rod 401 is provided with a first guide portion 402, and the support frame 400 is provided with a second guide portion cooperating with the first guide portion 402, and there is a vertical spacing between the first guide portion 402 and the second guide portion, and the guide rod 401 is displaced according to the guidance between the first guide portion 402 and the second guide portion.
[0039] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the second guide portion of the support frame 400 includes a support step 403 extending vertically and a limiting step 404 protruding upward from the upper surface of the support step 403. The limiting step 404 divides the upper surface of the support step 403 to form a convex shape.
[0040] Specifically, Figure 3As shown, the guide rod 401 has a guide cover body 405, the top surface of the guide cover body 405 can be understood as the upper surface of the guide rod 401 mentioned above, and a pair of first guide parts 402 can be vertically extended downward from the bottom surface of the guide cover body 405, and the guide space formed between the pair of first guide parts 402 is used to accommodate the limiting step 404.
[0041] Since there is a vertical spacing between the first guide portion 402 and the second guide portion, the guide rod 401 is displaced according to the guidance between the first guide portion 402 and the second guide portion. It can be understood that the limiting step 404 is only partially accommodated in the guiding space. In other words, there is a vertical distance between the downwardly extending end of the first guide portion 402 and the upper surface of the supporting step 403. In this way, after pressing the key body 300, the key body 300 is displaced downward, and then the guide rod 401 can be pushed to move downward to trigger the trigger element 103.
[0042] Preferably, the vertical spacing is greater than the effective stroke of the trigger element 103 switching from the initial state to the trigger state, thereby ensuring successful triggering of the trigger element 103 and avoiding the situation where the first guide portion 402 has abutted against the support step 403 but has not yet triggered the trigger element 103.
[0043] More specifically, if Figure 4 As shown, the supporting frame 400 may be provided with a pair of second guide parts, and the limiting step 404 of each second guide part matches two pairs of first guide parts 402. Thus, the stability and accuracy of the downward movement of the guide rod 401 can be ensured.
[0044] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the button body 300 includes a button shell 301 exposed on the outer surface of the charging stand body 100 and a button core 302 disposed in the button shell 301. The button shell 301 exposes at least a portion of the button core 302. The button core 302 and the guide rod 401 are both made of light-conducting material. Preferably, the button core 302 exposes the button shell 301 to form a charging and / or unlocking status mark.
[0045] In some embodiments, a light emitting element 500 is disposed on the circuit board 102 at a position aligned with the guide rod 401 , and the light emitting element 500 emits light in a first state.
[0046] Thus, the light emitted by the light emitting element 500 is displayed on the status mark through the light-guiding property of the guide rod 401 and the button inner core 302, and the operator can know the current charging / unlocking status according to the color of the light, the flashing frequency and other states.
[0047] The “first state” here may represent the charging state of the electric vehicle by the charging gun, and the first state may be a continuously flashing blue light.
[0048] In some embodiments, the control unit is configured to control the light emitting element 500 to emit light in a second state different from the first state after controlling the electronic lock to be unlocked.
[0049] The “second state” here may represent an unlocked state in which the charging gun is unlocked from the charging base, and the second state may be a permanently lit green light.
[0050] In other embodiments, if the control unit fails to unlock the electronic lock, the control unit may then control the light emitting element 500 to emit light in a third state different from the first state and the second state.
[0051] The "third state" here may represent a fault state, and the third state may be a permanently lit red light.
[0052] It is understood that in addition to the first state, the second state and the third state described herein, there may be many other states of the embodiments. Different states may be achieved through various possible combinations of luminous colors, flashing frequencies, etc. This is not limited herein. Of course, in addition to prompting the operator through the luminous state, the operator may also be prompted by voice.
[0053] According to the charging stand with electric unlocking function in this article, electric one-touch unlocking can be achieved, which is smarter and more convenient than the existing manual unlocking methods such as pulling ropes.
