Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric vehicles, in particular to a charger installation structure and an electric vehicle thereof. Background Art

[0002] The placement of traditional electric vehicle chargers is uncertain. Some are placed in the trunk, seat, and front storage box, which is rather random. Moreover, most lightweight electric vehicles have small storage space and cannot carry chargers with them. Even if they can carry chargers with them, there is a risk of damage from collision, squeezing, and contact with water when carrying them with the vehicle, which poses certain safety hazards.

[0003] In addition, when charging with a traditional charger, the charger will be placed outside the vehicle, which may cause theft. Moreover, if the charger is placed outside the electric vehicle during outdoor charging, there may be safety risks if it rains suddenly.

[0004] In addition, each time charging, you need to connect the charger to the power charging port, and then connect the charger to the external power supply. However, the electric vehicle power interface is electrified, and it is easy to accidentally touch it during the plugging and unplugging process, which also poses a great safety hazard.

[0005] To this end, we propose a charger installation structure and an electric vehicle thereof. Utility Model Content

[0042] The specific implementation of the present utility model is described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0043] Embodiment 1

[0044] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, in the present embodiment, a charger installation structure is disclosed, which is located inside the electric vehicle and includes a bracket 200 and a charger body 100. The structure is simple, occupies a small volume, and can be connected in the electric vehicle in a suspended manner. The special structural design of the bracket 200 improves the vibration reduction effect. The material and suspended design of the bracket 200 improve the heat dissipation effect of the charger body 100 during charging. The anti-tampering connector prevents theft.

[0045] Specifically, Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the bracket 200 includes a horizontally distributed support portion 201 and a buffer portion 202 located at both sides of the support portion 201 and distributed obliquely. Both ends of the buffer portion 202 are connected to the electric vehicle through connecting portions 203 respectively.

[0046] The bracket 200 is a sheet metal part and is formed in one piece. Its specific material is a metal thin plate with a thickness of less than 6 mm. It has strong toughness and can play a certain buffering role when the electric vehicle bumps up and down. At the same time, it improves the heat dissipation effect by fitting with the charger body 100.

[0047] The angle between the buffer portion 202 and the support portion 201 is between 15° and 75°. In the present embodiment, the preferred angle is between 30° and 50°. The angle design has two functions. First, due to the limited space in the pedal portion and the position of the frame 400 is generally upward, the angle structure can be used to position the charger body 100 in the middle position, that is, in a suspended position, thereby improving its heat dissipation effect. Another function is that the angle design can increase the elastic space in the vertical direction and improve the vibration reduction effect.

[0048] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the charger body 100 is connected to the support portion 201 of the bracket 200, specifically, it is connected to the support portion 201 through an anti-tampering connector 204, which can reduce the risk of theft and avoid safety hazards caused by using other unmatched chargers.

[0049] The charger body 100 is provided with two connectors, namely connector 1 101 and connector 2 102. Connector 1 101 is always connected to the electric vehicle power supply. The charger body 100 is located inside the electric vehicle and is directly connected to the electric vehicle power supply to avoid electric shock caused by touching the interface of the battery vehicle power supply during frequent plugging. Connector 2 102 extends out of the electric vehicle and is used to connect an external power supply. Connector 2 102 is an elastic wiring harness, which is convenient for storage and stretching.

[0050] With this design, the charger body 100 is completely placed inside the electric vehicle, with only the connector extending outward, which can prevent the charger body 100 from being stolen and also prevent rainwater from entering when charging outdoors, thus achieving a waterproof effect.

[0051] Embodiment 2

[0052] like Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, an electric vehicle is disclosed in this embodiment, which adopts the charger installation structure of the first embodiment. Specifically, the charger installation structure is installed on the pedal part 501 of the electric vehicle, and this part of the space is effectively utilized, especially for lightweight electric vehicles, whose internal space is limited. The cabin position is used to store more power and improve the endurance, which results in nowhere to place the charger body 100.

[0053] Also includes:

[0054] A body plastic part 500, wherein a pedal part 501 is provided on the body plastic part 500;

[0055] The vehicle frame 400 is connected to the vehicle body plastic part 500, and the bracket 200 straddles the vehicle frame 400 at the pedal part.

[0056] A mounting frame 300 is also connected between the bracket 200 and the frame 400. The mounting frame 300 is fixedly connected to the frame 400. The fixed connection method is mainly welding, which can maintain the integrity of the frame 400. The mounting frame 300 is provided with a plurality of slots corresponding to the connecting portion 203, which can be adjusted in the horizontal direction. The connecting portion 203 is connected to the mounting frame 300 through a tamper-proof connector 2, so as to prevent the charger body 100 from being stolen and avoid safety hazards caused by the private installation of other models of charger bodies 100.

[0057] The connectors in the tamper-proof connector 2 and the tamper-proof connector 1 204 include screws, snaps, magnets, interference fit connections, etc. The tamper-proof structure shows special treatment of the connection methods of each connector, the bolt groove on the screw head is changed to a special-shaped structure, the opening position of the snap structure is hidden, and the positions of the magnetic and interference fit connections are hidden.

[0058] like Figure 7 As shown, a groove is provided on the side wall of the pedal portion 501, and a charger plug cover 502 is provided on the groove for positioning and closing the connector 2 102. Normally, when not charging, the connector 2 102 will be engaged in the groove for installation and positioning and closed by the charger plug cover 502 to improve the waterproof effect. When charging, the charger plug cover 502 is opened, and then the connector 2 102 is stretched to connect to an external power source for charging.

[0059] 1. The charger body 100 is fixed to the bracket 200 through the anti-tampering connector 204, and then locked to the frame 400 together with the bracket 200 as a mounting structure to ensure that the charger body 100 does not contact with foreign objects, thereby effectively protecting the charger body 100 from damage.

[0060] 2. The special structural design of the bracket 200 improves the heat dissipation and vibration reduction effects.

[0061] 3. The charger body 100 is placed inside the electric vehicle and is surrounded by plastic parts, so it has good waterproof and dustproof functions;

[0062] 4. The charger body 100 is fixed to the bracket 200 by an anti-tampering connector, and the bracket 200 is also locked to the vehicle frame 400 by an anti-tampering connector, so it cannot be easily disassembled to ensure anti-theft. At the same time, it can also meet the function of being carried in the vehicle.

[0063] The above description is an explanation of the utility model, not a limitation of the utility model. The scope of the utility model is defined by the claims. Any form of modification can be made within the protection scope of the utility model.
