Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to charging equipment, in particular to a vehicle charging socket. Background Art

[0002] More and more vehicles such as cars are starting to switch to electric drive. Therefore, the use of charging piles is also increasing. The charging piles include plugs and sockets, and the circuit is connected by plugging the plugs and sockets together.

[0003] In the current charging pile, neither the plug nor the socket is provided with a protective door, and it is easy for the user to put his finger into the socket, thus causing electric shock. In order to solve the above technical problems, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN117117539A discloses a technical solution entitled "A socket with a safety anti-touch door at the end of a new energy charging pile", which includes a seat body, an annular lower cover fixed to the top of the seat body, an upper cover rotatably provided on the annular lower cover, a movable seat movably mounted on the annular lower cover, a first door cover rotatably mounted on the annular lower cover and open or closed with the movement of the movable seat, and a second door cover rotatably mounted on the annular lower cover and open or closed with the movement of the movable seat. The first door cover and the second door cover can partially or completely cover the charging channel in the middle of the annular lower cover when closed; the annular lower cover is also provided with a first spring elastically abutting against the movable seat and used to push the movable seat to drive the first door cover and the second door cover to close.

[0004] In the above technical solution, since there is no locking mechanism, when the charging gun plug is not inserted, the door cover can be easily pushed to expose the charging channel on the socket. Although there are other technical solutions to solve the above problem by setting a separate locking assembly, the separately set locking assembly has its own sliding member, which is equivalent to setting two sliding members in the socket, and the movement relationship of the two sliding members needs to be accurately controlled. Due to problems such as manufacturing and installation gaps, the locking assembly may not be able to cooperate well with the protective door. For example, the locking member may not be fully unlocked, and the protective door will move, causing the protective door and the locking member to be stuck and unable to unlock and open the protective door; or after the charging plug is unplugged, the locking member has moved into place, and the protective door moves into place later, resulting in the locking member being unable to lock the protective door, thereby causing the protective door to be unable to open or the locking assembly to fail to work normally to achieve the expected locking effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a vehicle charging socket, which can effectively solve the problem that the existing charging pile protection door and the locking mechanism are separately arranged, which is prone to poor coordination and causes the protection door to be unable to open or the locking mechanism to be unable to function normally.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A vehicle charging socket, comprising a socket body, the socket body being provided with a charging port, the charging port being provided with a plurality of wire jacks, the charging port being used for docking a charging plug, the socket body being provided with a sliding member and a protective door, the protective door comprising two door bodies arranged crosswise, the same ends of the two door bodies being rotatably connected to the socket body, and the wire jacks being opened or closed during the rotation of the protective door; the sliding member being provided on the socket body and being transmission-connected to the intersection of the two door bodies;

[0008] The sliding member is provided with a limiting portion, and the protective door is provided with an erroneous opening portion. The limiting portion stops the erroneous opening portion, so that the protective door is in a closed wire insertion hole position; the sliding member moves to release the stopping state of the limiting portion and the erroneous opening portion, and then the sliding member drives the protective door to rotate to open the wire insertion hole.

[0009] In the above-mentioned vehicle charging socket, each door body is provided with a slide groove, and the slide groove includes a locking section and a driving section. The sliding member is provided with a sliding part that is inserted into the two slide grooves at the same time. After the stopper of the false opening part and the limit part is released, the sliding part enters the driving section from the locking section, driving the two door bodies to rotate synchronously.

[0010] In the above-mentioned vehicle charging socket, the length direction of the locking section is parallel to the moving direction of the sliding member; and the angle between the driving section and the locking section is an obtuse angle.

[0011] In the above-mentioned vehicle charging socket, one of the limiting portion and the false opening portion is a card slot, and the other is a card block adapted to the card slot. Along the movement direction of the sliding member, the card slot is provided with a notch for allowing the card block to disengage.

[0012] In the above-mentioned vehicle charging socket, the false opening portion is a first blocking block arranged on the sliding member, and the limiting portion is a second blocking block arranged on the protective door. Along the rotation direction of the protective door, the second blocking block stops on the movement path of the first blocking block.

[0013] In the above-mentioned vehicle charging socket, there are two of the false opening parts and two of the limiting parts, the two limiting parts are respectively arranged on both sides of the sliding member, and one false opening part is arranged on each of the door bodies.

[0014] In the above-mentioned vehicle charging socket, the door body includes a rotating end rotatably connected to the socket body and a shielding portion shielding the wire insertion hole, the rotating end and the shielding portion are respectively located on both sides of the intersection of the door body, and the distance from the rotating end to the intersection of the door body is less than the distance from the shielding portion to the intersection of the door body.

[0015] In the above-mentioned vehicle charging socket, the sliding member is provided with a driving end extending into the charging port, and the driving end is pressed into the socket body when the charging plug is inserted.

[0016] In the above-mentioned vehicle charging socket, a sliding opening for the driving end to pass through is opened on the side wall of the charging port, and the sliding member is also provided with an abutment portion clamped on the outside of the sliding opening.

[0017] In the above-mentioned vehicle charging socket, the sliding member is also connected to a reset member, and both the socket body and the sliding member are provided with a positioning member for fixing the reset member.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the utility model are:

[0019] By providing an erroneous opening portion on the sliding member, and providing a limiting portion on the protective door, the limiting portion is used to stop the erroneous opening portion, thereby solving the problem that the current protective door and the locking mechanism are separately arranged, resulting in poor coordination and the inability of the locking mechanism to function. In this solution, the same end of the two door bodies is rotatably connected to the socket body, and the sliding member is arranged on the socket body and is transmission-connected to the intersection of the two door bodies. The sliding member can control the two door bodies to open a larger angle relative to each other by only moving a small distance, thereby realizing the sliding member to control the door body to open or close the wire jack with a small displacement, which is beneficial to reducing the volume of the socket. In this solution, a limiting portion and an erroneous opening portion are provided, and are respectively provided on the sliding member and the protective door. The sliding member is used to unlock and drive the protective door to open. When the sliding member moves, it will first unlock and then push the protective door to move, making the unlocking and pushing steps more coherent, and there is no situation in the prior art where the positions of the two sliding members need to be accurately controlled. Therefore, the installation accuracy is also reduced, which is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency.

[0020] Furthermore, each door body is provided with a slide groove, the slide groove includes a locking section and a driving section, the sliding member is provided with a sliding part inserted into the two slide grooves at the same time, after the stop state of the false opening part and the limit part is released, the sliding part enters the driving section from the locking section, and drives the two door bodies to rotate synchronously. By controlling the locking of the two door bodies or driving the two door bodies to move at the same time by a sliding part, the failure rate is reduced. When the sliding part slides in the locking section, it is only used to control the relative position of the limit part and the false opening part. Only after the false opening part and the limit part release the stop state, the sliding part enters the driving section, and then the two door bodies are driven to rotate synchronously, ensuring the sequential movement order of the two motion states of the stop release and the door body movement, and the situation that the two states are carried out synchronously will not occur, thereby ensuring the smooth unlocking and opening of the door body.

[0021] Furthermore, the length direction of the locking section is parallel to the moving direction of the sliding member; the angle between the driving section and the locking section is an obtuse angle. When the sliding part moves in the locking section, since the length direction of the locking section is parallel to the moving direction of the sliding member, the sliding part will not drive the door body to rotate, but only release the blocking state of the false opening part and the limit part. When the sliding part turns into the driving section, since the driving section forms an obtuse angle with the sliding direction of the sliding member, it will drive the door body to rotate and open the wire insertion hole.

[0022] Furthermore, one of the limiting part and the mis-opening part is a card slot, and the other is a card block matched with the card slot, and along the movement direction of the sliding member, the card slot is provided with a notch for the card block to be disengaged. The mis-opening part can be limited in multiple directions by the card slot, thereby preventing the protective door from being illegally opened.

[0023] Furthermore, the mis-opening portion is a first blocking block provided on the sliding member, and the limiting portion is a second blocking block provided on the protective door. Along the rotation direction of the protective door, the second blocking block stops on the movement path of the first blocking block. Another structure of the limiting portion and the mis-opening portion prevents the protective door from being accidentally opened by abutting against each other the two blocking blocks in the sliding direction of the protective door. Compared with the structure of the previous card slot, this solution is simpler and can also achieve a good blocking effect.

[0024] Furthermore, there are two of each of the false opening part and the limit part, and the two limit parts are respectively arranged on both sides of the sliding member, and one false opening part is arranged on each door body. This avoids interference between the false opening parts on the two door bodies and the corresponding limit parts when they cooperate, and ensures that the two false opening parts can cooperate independently of the corresponding limit parts to achieve the purpose of stopping.

[0025] Furthermore, the door body includes a rotating end rotatably connected to the socket body and a shielding part shielding the wire insertion hole, the rotating end and the shielding part are respectively located on both sides of the door body intersection, and the distance from the rotating end to the door body intersection is less than the distance from the shielding part to the door body intersection. When the above conditions are met, the sliding member connected to the door body intersection only needs to move a short distance to make the shielding part swing to a larger amplitude, so that the shielding part can quickly open the wire insertion hole.

[0026] Furthermore, the sliding member is provided with a driving end extending into the charging port, and the driving end is pressed into the socket body when the charging plug is inserted. When the charging plug is inserted, the driving end is pressed into the socket body, thereby providing power to the sliding member through the driving end, prompting the protective door to open.

[0027] Furthermore, a sliding opening is provided on the side wall of the charging port for the driving end to pass through, and the sliding member is also provided with an abutment portion clamped on the outside of the sliding opening. The abutment portion can prevent the driving end from extending too far into the charging port, ensuring that the driving end can be pushed into the socket body when the charging plug is inserted.

[0028] Furthermore, the sliding member is also connected to a reset member, and the socket body and the sliding member are both provided with positioning members for fixing the reset member. After the charging plug is pulled out of the charging port, the reset member can drive the sliding member to return to the initial state, so that the limit part and the mistaken opening part return to the stop state.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] A vehicle charging socket, comprising a socket body 100, wherein the socket body 100 is provided with a charging port 110, wherein the charging port 110 is provided with a plurality of wire insertion holes 111, wherein the charging port 110 is used to connect with a charging plug, wherein the socket body 100 is provided with a sliding member 120 and a protective door 130, wherein the protective door 130 comprises two door bodies 131 arranged crosswise, wherein the same ends of the two door bodies 131 are both rotatably connected to the socket body 100, and wherein the wire insertion holes 111 are opened or closed during the rotation of the protective door 130 1; the sliding member 120 is arranged on the socket body 100 and is transmission-connected to the intersection of the two door bodies 131; the sliding member 120 is provided with a limiting portion 142, and the door body 131 is provided with an erroneous opening portion 141, and the limiting portion 142 stops the erroneous opening portion 141, so that the protection door is in a position of closing the wire insertion hole 111; the sliding member 120 moves to release the stopping state of the erroneous opening portion 141 and the limiting portion 142, and then the sliding member 120 drives the protection door 130 to rotate to open the wire insertion hole 111.

[0038] By providing a limit portion 142 on the sliding member 120 and an erroneous opening portion 141 on the protective door 130, and using the limit portion 142 to stop the erroneous opening portion 141, the problem that the protective door 130 and the locking mechanism are currently provided separately, resulting in poor coordination and the inability of the locking mechanism to function, is solved. In this solution, the same end of the two door bodies 131 is rotatably connected to the socket body 100, and the sliding member 120 is provided on the socket body 100 and is transmission-connected to the intersection of the two door bodies 131. The sliding member 120 can control the two door bodies 131 to open a larger angle relative to each other by only moving a small distance, thereby realizing that the sliding member 120 controls the door body 131 to open or close the wire jack 111 with a small displacement, which is conducive to reducing the volume of the socket. In this solution, an error-opening portion 141 and a limiting portion 142 are provided, and are respectively provided on the protective door 130 and the sliding member 120.

[0043] Embodiment 1:

[0044] See also Figures 1 to 5 This is a first embodiment of a vehicle charging socket of the utility model. The vehicle charging socket includes a socket body 100. The socket body 100 is provided with a charging port 110. The charging port 110 is provided with a plurality of wire jacks 111. The shape and specification of the charging port 110 are uniformly manufactured according to local standards. The number and position of the wire jacks 111 are also uniformly arranged according to local standards. The charging port 110 is used to connect to a charging plug, which is also manufactured according to local standards.

[0045] The socket body 100 is provided with a sliding member 120 and a protective door 130. The main function of the sliding member 120 is to drive the protective door 130 to move and realize the opening and closing of the protective door 130. The sliding member 120 can be a slider, a slide plate or a slide bar. The sliding member 120 is slidably arranged on the socket body 100 and is connected to the protective door 130 in a transmission manner. The protective door 130 includes two door bodies 131 arranged crosswise. The sliding member 120 is connected at the intersection of the two door bodies 131, and can synchronously drive the two door bodies 131 to rotate, and open or close the wire jack 111 during the rotation of the protective door 130. The upper ends of the two door bodies 131 at the intersection are rotating ends 136, and the rotating ends 136 are rotatably connected to the socket body 100. A rotating hole can be provided on the rotating end 136, and a rotating shaft can be provided on the socket body 100 to realize the rotatable connection between the door body 131 and the socket body 100. A shielding portion 135 is provided at the other end of the door body 131, and the shielding portion 135 is mainly used for shielding the wire insertion hole. The rotating end 136 and the shielding portion 135 are respectively located on both sides of the intersection of the door bodies 131. The distance from the rotating end 136 to the intersection of the door bodies is less than the distance from the shielding portion 135 to the intersection of the door bodies, that is, the intersection of the two door bodies 131 is as close to the rotating end 136 as possible. In this way, when the sliding member 120 pushes the door body 131 to move, the shielding portion 135 of the door body 131 can be driven with a smaller stroke to open the wire insertion hole 111, so as to reduce the volume of the socket body 100.

[0046] Each door body 131 is provided with a slide groove 132, and the slide groove 132 includes a locking section 133 and a driving section 134. The locking sections 133 of the two door bodies 131 overlap, and the sliding member 120 is provided with a sliding portion 121 that is inserted into the two slide grooves 132 at the same time. When the sliding portion 121 is located in the locking section 133, the stopping state of the false opening portion 141 and the limiting portion 142 will be maintained. When the sliding portion 121 enters the driving section 134, the stopping state of the false opening portion 141 and the limiting portion 142 is released. As the sliding member 120 moves, the sliding portion 121 will push the side wall of the driving section 134 and slide in the driving section 134, thereby pushing the door body 131 to rotate.

[0047] like Figure 2 , Figure 5As shown, further, the length direction of the locking segment 133 is parallel to the moving direction of the sliding member 120, so that when the sliding member 120 moves, the sliding portion 121 only moves in the locking segment 133, and will not exert force on the locking segment 133, that is, the sliding member 120 is moving but the door body 131 does not rotate, and the mis-opening portion 141 and the limiting portion 142 are misaligned during the movement of the sliding member 120, that is, the mis-opening portion 141 and the limiting portion 142 are released from the blocking state; the driving segment 134 and the locking segment 133 form an obtuse angle, and after the sliding portion 121 enters the locking segment 133, since the length direction of the locking segment 133 forms an angle with the moving direction of the sliding member 120, the sliding portion 121 will exert force on the side wall of the slide groove 132 of the driving segment 134, thereby pushing the door body 131 to rotate.

[0048] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the mis-opening portion 141 is a block and is arranged on the door body 131, and the limiting portion 142 is a slot and is arranged on the sliding member 120. The block can slide in the slot, and the slot is provided with a notch to allow the block to disengage. In this embodiment, the sliding member 120 moves upward, so the notch is arranged at the bottom of the slot, so that the mis-opening portion 141 gradually disengages from the limiting portion 142 and releases the blocking state. With the mis-opening portion 141 and the limiting portion 142 of the above structure, in the blocking state, the mis-opening portion 141 is located in the slot, and the mis-opening portion 141 is limited in multiple dimensions by the limiting portion 142, such as Figure 4 The limiting part 142 in the middle opens downward, and can limit the three directions of the left, right and top of the erroneous opening part 141. When the door body 131 rotates, the limiting part 142 mainly stops the movement direction of the left and right sides of the erroneous opening part 141. The left and right sides can prevent the two door bodies 131 from moving in the direction of approaching each other and can also prevent the two door bodies 131 from moving in the direction of separation, thereby limiting the shaking of the protective door 130 in the closed state. The limiting part 142 can also be a card block, and the erroneous opening part 141 is a card slot. The top of the card slot is provided with a notch. When the sliding member moves upward, the card block is driven to disengage from the notch at the top of the card slot, and the blocking state is released.

[0049] Furthermore, there are two false opening parts 141 and two limiting parts 142, and the two limiting parts 142 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the sliding member 120, and a false opening part 141 is respectively provided at the position corresponding to the limiting part 142 on each door body 131, so that the two limiting parts 142 are far away from each other and cooperate with the corresponding false opening parts 141 without interfering with each other, ensuring that the two door bodies 131 can be stopped.

[0050] In order to enable the sliding member 120 to move when the charging plug is inserted into the charging port 110, the sliding member 120 is provided with a driving end 122 that extends into the charging port 110. The driving end 122 is provided with a guiding slope in the direction toward the entrance of the charging port 110. The charging plug can act on the guiding slope to generate thrust, push the driving end 122 out of the charging port 110, and thus move the sliding member 120. Furthermore, a sliding opening 112 for the driving end 122 to pass through is opened on the side wall of the charging port 110, and an abutment portion 123 that is clamped on the outside of the sliding opening 112 is provided on the sliding member 120. The abutment portion 123 limits the length of the driving end 122 extending into the charging port 110 to prevent the driving end 122 from extending too long into the charging port 110, resulting in the failure of the unlocking to generate an outward thrust on the driving end 122 when the charging plug is inserted.

[0051] The sliding member 120 pushes the sliding member 120 to move when the charging plug is inserted to release the lock of the protection door 130, and pushes the protection door 130 to open the wire insertion hole 111. After the charging plug is unplugged, the protection door 130 needs to automatically close the wire insertion hole 111. Therefore, the sliding member 120 is connected with a reset member 150, and the reset member 150 is located between the socket body 100 outside the charging port 110 and the sliding member 120. When the charging plug is inserted into the charging port 110, the sliding member 120 moves to accumulate elastic potential energy. When the charging plug is unplugged, the elastic potential energy of the reset member 150 is released, driving the sliding member 120 to return to the initial position, not only making the protection door 130 close the wire insertion hole 111, but also making the mistaken opening part 141 and the limit part 142 run to the stop state.

[0052] Furthermore, the reset member 150 generally adopts a compression spring, and the socket body 100 and the sliding member 120 are both provided with a positioning member for fixing the reset member 150, and the positioning member includes a positioning groove 160 and / or a positioning rod 170. In this embodiment, both the positioning groove 160 and the positioning rod 170 are used, and the end of the reset member 150 is inserted into the positioning groove 160, and the positioning rod 170 is arranged in the positioning groove 160, and the positioning rod 170 extends into the reset member 150. In this way, the two ends of the reset member 150 are fixed to ensure that the reset member 150 can play the expected role and drive the sliding member 120 to reset after the charging plug is unplugged.

[0053] In this embodiment, the two door bodies 131 are cross-arranged to form a scissors-like structure. The upper ends of the two door bodies 131 are rotatably connected to the socket body 100. A slide groove 132 is arranged at the intersection of the two door bodies 131, that is, the front and rear parts of the slide grooves 132 on the two door bodies 131 overlap. The two door bodies 131 are located between the sliding member 120 and the socket body 100. The sliding member 120 is provided with a sliding portion 121 inserted into the slide groove 132. Positioning grooves 160 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the sliding member 120 to form a limiting portion 142. A mis-opening portion 141 is provided at a position corresponding to the limiting portion 142 on the door body 131. The mis-opening portion 141 extends into the limiting portion 142 in a block shape. A guiding slope is provided on the mis-opening portion 141 so that the mis-opening portion 141 can be accurately inserted into the limiting portion 142 and switched back to the stop state. Figure 1 As shown, in the initial state, since the false opening portion 141 is located in the limiting portion 142, the rotation of the door body 131 is restricted. At this time, the protection door 130 shields the wire jack 111, and foreign objects cannot be inserted into the wire jack 111, nor can the wire jack 111 be opened by turning the protection door 130. When the charging plug is inserted into the charging port 110, the front end of the charging plug contacts the driving section 134 of the sliding member 120 first, and pushes the driving end 122, so that the sliding member 120 slides and pushes the driving end 122 out of the charging port 110. In this process, as the sliding member 120 slides, the limiting portion 142 gradually disengages from the false opening portion 141, releasing the blocking state of the false opening portion 141 and the limiting portion 142. At the same time, the sliding portion 121 on the sliding member 120 also slides from the locking section 133 into the driving section 134. When the false opening portion 141 and the limiting portion 142 are completely released from the blocking state, the sliding portion 121 also enters the driving section 134. Since the stop state has been released and the driving section 134 of the slide slot 132 forms an angle with respect to the sliding direction of the sliding member 120, the sliding portion 121 will abut against the side wall of the driving section 134 and push the door body 131 to rotate, so that the door body 131 opens the wire insertion hole 111, allowing the charging plug to dock with the wire insertion hole 111. In this process, the reset member 150 located between the sliding member 120 and the socket body 100 accumulates elastic potential energy.

[0054] When charging is completed, the user unplugs the charging plug, and the elastic potential energy accumulated in the reset member 150 is released, pushing the sliding member to move toward the center of the charging port 110 . The sliding portion 121 abuts against the other side wall of the driving section 134 , pushing the door body 131 to rotate in the opposite direction to cover the wire jack 111 . When the sliding portion 121 runs to the junction of the driving section 134 and the locking section 133, the door body 131 has completely covered the wire jack 111, and the false opening portion 141 moves to just below the limiting portion 142; as the elastic potential energy of the reset member 150 continues to be released, the sliding member 120 will continue to move toward the center of the charging port 110, the sliding portion 121 enters the locking section 133, the door body 131 will no longer rotate, and the false opening portion 141 enters the limiting portion 142. The false opening portion 141 and the limiting portion 142 are in a stopped state, the driving section 134 extends into the charging port 110, and the abutting portion 123 abuts against the side wall of the charging port 110 outside the sliding opening 112.

[0055] In the above solution, the mis-opening portion 141 is provided on the sliding member 120, and the limiting portion 142 is provided on the door body 131, which can also achieve a stopping effect. Through the above solution, only one sliding member 120 is used to lock the protection door 130 and control the opening of the protection door 130, which simplifies the structure inside the charging socket, and because both are controlled by the sliding member 120, the actions of unlocking and opening the protection door 130 can also be connected more smoothly, avoiding the situation where the two sliding members 120 control the unlocking and opening separately, causing interference with each other and causing the protection door 130 to be unable to open.

[0056] Embodiment 2:

[0057] like Figure 6 As shown, the difference from the first embodiment is that the structure and position of the false opening part 141 and the limiting part 142 in this embodiment are different. In this embodiment, the false opening part 141 is a first blocking block arranged on the protective door 130, and the limiting part 142 is a second blocking block arranged on the side wall of the sliding member 120. The contact surface between the first blocking block and the second blocking block is an inclined surface. When no external force is applied, the limiting part 142 abuts against the inclined surface of the false opening part 141, thereby preventing the protective door 130 from swinging outwards; when the sliding member 120 is abutted by the charging plug, the limiting part 142 withdraws from the movement path of the false opening part 141, releases the blocking state of the false opening part 141 and the limiting part 142, and allows the protective door 130 to open smoothly. In the initial state, the limit portion 142 is located outside the false opening portion 141, thereby preventing the door body 131 from rotating outward to open the wire jack 111. As the sliding member 120 is pushed upward by the charging plug, the limit portion 142 will also make enough space for the door body 131 to rotate to the angle of opening the wire jack 111.

[0059] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the technical features of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any changes or modifications made by any technician in the field of the present invention are included in the patent scope of the present invention.
