Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of charging pile protection, and in particular to a rainproof and dehumidifying electric vehicle charging pile. Background Art
[0002] A charging pile is a device that replenishes power for electric vehicles. Its function is similar to that of a gas pump in a gas station. It can be fixed on the ground or on a wall and installed in public buildings (charging stations, shopping malls, public parking lots, etc.) and residential parking lots. It can charge various types of electric vehicles by adjusting the voltage and current.
[0003] In the related technology, the input end of the charging pile is directly connected to the AC power grid, and the output end is equipped with a charging plug for charging electric vehicles. Charging piles generally provide two charging methods: conventional charging and fast charging. People can use a specific charging card to swipe the card on the human-computer interaction interface provided by the charging pile to perform corresponding charging operations and print cost data. The charging pile display can display data such as charging amount, cost, and charging time.
[0004] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, when it rains, rainwater may cause a short circuit in the circuit inside the charging pile, or long-term contact with water may cause rust inside the charging pile, thereby damaging the charging pile and reducing the service life of the charging pile, so improvements are made. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to improve the waterproof ability of a charging pile, the present application provides a rainproof and dehumidifying electric vehicle charging pile.
[0006] The present application provides a rainproof and dehumidifying electric vehicle charging pile, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A rainproof and dehumidifying electric vehicle charging pile comprises a mounting frame and a charging pile body, wherein the charging pile body is arranged on the mounting frame, a rain shelter is rotatably arranged on the mounting frame, two groups of rain shelters are arranged, a rotating shaft is arranged at the connection between the two groups of rain shelters, a driving component for driving the rain shelter to rotate is arranged on the mounting frame, and a dehumidification component for dehumidifying the charging pile body is also arranged on the charging pile body.

When the driving component opens the two sets of awnings, it can be used to block light rain and sunlight, thereby improving the comfort of people when using the charging pile. When encountering extreme weather such as heavy rain, snowfall and strong wind, the driving component will close the two sets of awnings to form an enclosed space to protect the charging pile body and reduce the damage to the charging pile caused by extreme weather. The dehumidification component can dry the inside of the charging pile body to reduce the adverse effects of moisture on the inside of the charging pile body, such as rust.
[0009] Optionally, the driving assembly includes an electric telescopic rod and a support rod, the electric telescopic rod is arranged on the mounting frame, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod is connected to the support rod, and two groups of movable grooves for the end of the electric telescopic rod to move are symmetrically opened on the inner walls of the two groups of awnings, and the two groups of movable grooves are cross-arranged along the length direction, and the spacing between the two groups of movable grooves close to the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod is greater than the spacing away from the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the electric telescopic rod is started, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod drives the support rod to slide in the movable groove. Since the spacing between the two groups of movable grooves close to the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod is larger than the spacing between the two groups of movable grooves far away from the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod, when the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod is extended, the two groups of awnings can be driven to rotate and open, and when the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod is shortened, the awning can be closed.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the fan can pass air into the interior of the charging pile body, and the dehumidification box can dry the air passed into the interior of the charging pile body, so that the dry air can dry the interior of the charging pile body, reducing the impact of moisture on rust and other damages to the interior of the charging pile.
[0013] Optionally, a drawer is provided in the drying chamber, and the dehumidification material is arranged in the drawer.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, opening the drawer of the dehumidification box can facilitate timely replacement of the dehumidification material inside the dehumidification box, thereby ensuring the normal use of the dehumidification box.

[0017] Optionally, an elastic sealing strip is provided on the awning near the rotating shaft.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic sealing strip can improve the sealing effect at the rotating shaft, preventing rainwater from dripping from the gap between the rotating shafts of the two sets of awnings onto the charging pile body, thereby causing damage to the charging pile body.
[0019] Optionally, after the two groups of awnings are closed, the tops are inclined with the middle higher and the two sides lower.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the tops of the two groups of awnings after closing are inclined with the middle higher and the two sides lower, which can effectively prevent rainwater from gathering on the top of the awnings and also prevent excessive accumulation of snow on the top of the awnings.

[0035] The following is combined with Figure 1-5 , further details of this application are given.
[0036] The embodiment of the present application discloses a rainproof and dehumidifying electric vehicle charging pile.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A rainproof and dehumidifying electric vehicle charging pile includes a mounting frame 1 and a charging pile body 2. The charging pile body 2 is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 1. Two groups of rain shelters 3 are symmetrically mounted on the mounting frame 1. A rotating shaft 31 is mounted at the connection between the two groups of rain shelters 3. The two groups of rain shelters 3 rotate with the rotating shaft 31 as the rotation center. A driving component 4 is mounted on the mounting frame 1, and a dehumidification component 5 is also mounted on the charging pile body 2.
[0038] The driving component 4 in the present application can rotate the awning 3. When the driving component 4 opens the two groups of awnings 3, it can be used to block light rain and sunlight, thereby improving the comfort of people when using the charging pile. When encountering extreme weather such as heavy rain, snowfall and strong wind, the driving component 4 closes the two groups of awnings 3 to form an enclosed space to protect the charging pile body 2 and reduce the damage to the charging pile caused by extreme weather. The dehumidification component 5 can dry the inside of the charging pile body 2 and reduce the adverse effects of moisture on the inside of the charging pile body 2, such as rust. In the present embodiment, a plurality of drainage grooves 32 are provided on the outer peripheral wall of the awning 3. The drainage grooves 32 can drain the rainwater on the awning 3 and discharge the rainwater on the awning 3 more quickly.
[0039] In order to realize the opening and closing of the two groups of awnings 3, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The driving assembly 4 in the present application includes an electric telescopic rod 41 and a support rod 42. A support plate 11 is welded and installed on the mounting frame 1. The fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 41 is fixedly installed on the support plate 11, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 41 is welded and connected to the support rod 42. The two groups of awnings 3 are symmetrically provided with moving grooves 43 for moving the ends of the electric telescopic rods 41, and the two groups of moving grooves 43 are cross-arranged along the length direction. The spacing between the two groups of moving grooves 43 close to the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 41 is greater than the spacing between the two groups of moving grooves 43 away from the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 41.
[0040] Start the electric telescopic rod 41, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 41 drives the support rod 42 to slide in the movable groove 43. In this embodiment, rollers 44 are rotatably installed at both ends of the support rod 42, and the rollers 44 are rollingly installed in the movable groove 43. Since the spacing between the two groups of movable grooves 43 close to the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 41 is greater than the spacing between the two groups of movable grooves 43 away from the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 41, when the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 41 is extended, the two groups of awnings 3 can be driven to rotate and open, and when the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 41 is shortened, the awning 3 can be closed.
[0041] When the air humidity is high, the circuit in the charging pile body 2 is prone to short circuit, and some components of the charging pile body 2 are prone to rust. Figure 5 Therefore, the dehumidification component 5 in the present application includes a dehumidification box 51 and a fan 52. The dehumidification box 51 is welded and installed below the charging pile body 2, and the dehumidification box 51 is connected to the inside of the charging pile body 2. The fan 52 is installed in the dehumidification box 51. A drying chamber 53 is also provided in the dehumidification box 51. Dehumidification materials are placed in the drying chamber 53, and an air inlet is provided at the bottom of the drying chamber 53.
[0042] The fan 52 in the present application can transport the air dried by the dehumidification material to the interior of the charging pile body 2, so that the dry air can dry the interior of the charging pile body 2, reducing the impact of moisture on the interior of the charging pile such as rust. In the present embodiment, the dehumidification material is activated carbon, which is a preferred method of the present embodiment. In other embodiments, the dehumidification material may be montmorillonite, etc., and in the present embodiment, the number of dehumidification boxes 51 is two, and in other embodiments, the size and number of the dehumidification boxes 51 can be adjusted according to actual needs.
[0043] After the dehumidification box 51 is used for a long time, the water absorption effect of the dehumidification material in the dehumidification box 51 will decrease, so it is necessary to replace the dehumidification material in the dehumidification box 51 in time. Figure 5 Therefore, a drawer 54 is slidably installed in the drying chamber 53 in the present application, a handle 55 is welded and installed on the drawer 54, and a ventilation hole is opened on the drawer 54. The dehumidification material in the dehumidification box 51 can be replaced by pulling the dehumidification box 51 out of the drawer 54 through the handle 55, thereby ensuring the normal use of the dehumidification box 51.
[0044] Reference Figure 4 When the awning 3 is closed, rainwater may move along the surface of the awning 3 to the gap at the bottom of the awning 3, which may cause the bottom of the awning 3 to be relatively moist, and some moisture may enter the space surrounded by the two groups of awnings 3 from the gap and affect the charging pile equipment. Therefore, in the present application, a water retaining strip 6 is welded and installed on the side of the awning 3 away from the rotating shaft 31, and the present application has an elastic sealing strip 7 pasted on the awning 3 near the rotating shaft 31. The elastic sealing strip 7 can improve the sealing effect at the rotating shaft 31 to prevent rainwater from dripping from the gap between the rotating shafts 31 of the two groups of awnings 3 onto the charging pile body 2, thereby damaging the charging pile body 2. In the present embodiment, the elastic sealing strip 7 is made of soft rubber material, which is a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment. In other embodiments, it can be made of soft plastic material, etc.
[0045] When the two groups of awnings 3 are closed, water or snow may accumulate on the top of the awnings 3. Therefore, the tops of the two groups of awnings 3 in the present application are inclined with the middle higher and the two sides lower after being closed. The inclined setting of the tops of the two groups of awnings 3 with the middle higher and the two sides lower after being closed can effectively prevent rainwater from gathering on the top of the awnings 3, and can also prevent excessive accumulation of snow on the top of the awnings 3.
[0046] Reference Figure 1 A rain sensor 8 is also installed on the mounting frame 1 in the present application. The rain sensor 8 is electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod 41 and the fan 52, and the rain sensor 8 is electrically connected to the terminal. When the rain sensor 8 detects heavy rainfall, the electric telescopic rod 41 can be started through the electrical connection to close the awning 3 and turn on the fan 52, so as to timely protect the charging pile body 2 from rain and dehumidify. The terminal priority is greater than the rain sensor 8. When the charging pile body 2 needs to be used with the awning 3 closed, the terminal can control the extension and retraction of the electric telescopic rod 41 and the opening and closing of the fan 52 through the rain sensor 8.
[0047] The implementation principle of a rainproof and dehumidifying electric vehicle charging pile in the embodiment of the present application is as follows:
[0048] When the rain sensor 8 detects heavy rainfall, the rain sensor 8 shortens the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 41, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 41 drives the support rod 42 to slide in the movable groove 43. Since the spacing between the two sets of movable grooves 43 close to the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 41 is greater than the spacing between the two sets of movable grooves 43 away from the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 41, when the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 41 is shortened, the two sets of awnings 3 are driven to rotate and close. The enclosed space enclosed by the two-character awnings 3 after closing can protect the charging pile body 2 and reduce the damage to the charging pile caused by extreme weather.
[0049] When it is necessary to dehumidify the charging pile body 2, the rain sensor 8 shortens the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 41 and turns on the fan 52. The fan 52 transports the air dried by the dehumidification material in the dehumidification box 51 to the charging pile body 2, thereby reducing the humidity in the charging pile body 2, drying the inside of the charging pile body 2, and reducing the impact of moisture on the inside of the charging pile, such as rust.
