Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electric vehicle accessories technology, specifically relating to an electric vehicle socket with a sloping protrusion. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of society and the economy and the improvement of people's living standards, electric vehicles, as a green and environmentally friendly means of transportation, are increasingly favored and have become the first choice for many people's travel. Electric vehicles are equipped with charging sockets for connecting to chargers. Traditional charging sockets typically have a protective cover for dust and rain protection, hinged by a torsion spring. Each time charging is required, one hand must first open the protective cover, and then the other hand must hold the charger plug and insert it into the charging socket. This is not only cumbersome to use, but the manufacturing and installation of the protective cover and its accessories also increase the cost of the charging socket. Therefore, there is an urgent need to optimize the existing electric vehicle charging socket structure and propose a sloping, protruding electric vehicle socket that not only has dust and rain protection functions, but is also more convenient to use and has a lower manufacturing cost. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of the prior art by providing an electric vehicle socket with a sloping protrusion, which not only has dustproof and rainproof functions, but is also more convenient to use and has a lower manufacturing cost.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] An electric vehicle socket with a sloping protrusion, characterized in that: it includes a housing and a conductive base disposed inside the housing, the conductive base having a conductive hole, a charging port being provided at one end of the housing, a positioning plate being provided on the outer side of the charging port, the outer end face of the positioning plate being flush with the outer end face of the charging port, the side of the positioning plate away from its outer end face being a sloping surface, and the thickness of the upper end of the positioning plate being greater than the thickness of its lower end.

[0006] Preferably, the positioning plate and the housing are an integral structure.

[0007] Preferably, the positioning plate is provided with positioning holes.

[0008] Preferably, there are two positioning plates, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the charging port.

[0009] Preferably, a protective awning is provided above the charging port.

[0010] Preferably, the lower end face of the protective eaves has an arc-shaped structure.

[0011] Preferably, the conductive base is provided with a threaded mounting hole.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] The positioning plate of this utility model socket has a beveled side. When the socket is installed on the electric vehicle body, the beveled side of the positioning plate fits into the electric vehicle body. At this time, the opening of the charging port of the socket is tilted downward. This not only makes the socket dustproof and rainproof, but also makes the socket easier to manufacture. It does not require the torsion spring, protective cover and other accessories required by traditional sockets, effectively reducing the manufacturing cost of the socket and making charging more convenient.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "middle", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0021] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," "link," and "fix" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection or a detachable connection; a mechanical connection; a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, an electric vehicle socket with a sloping protrusion includes a housing 1 and a conductive base 2 disposed inside the housing. The conductive base has a threaded mounting hole 202, and is assembled and connected to the housing by screws. The conductive base also has a conductive hole 201, which mates with a conductor inside the charger plug. One end of the housing has a charging port 3. During charging, the charger plug is inserted into the charging port, and the conductor inside the plug is inserted into the conductive hole, thus connecting the charger plug to the socket. The socket is connected to the electric vehicle's battery 8 via a wire. A positioning plate 4 is provided on the outside of the charging port, combined with... Figure 2 As shown, the outer end face of the positioning plate is flush with the outer end face of the charging port. The side of the positioning plate away from its outer end face is a slope 401. The thickness of the upper end of the positioning plate is greater than the thickness of its lower end. The positioning plate is provided with positioning holes 402 for installing screws. Figure 3 As shown, when the socket is installed on the electric vehicle body 7, the screw 6 is inserted into the positioning hole 402 and connected to the electric vehicle body. After the screw is fully tightened, the inclined surface of the positioning plate fits against the electric vehicle body. At this time, the socket is in an inclined state, and its opening direction (i.e., the charging port) is also tilted downwards, effectively achieving the purpose of dust and rain protection. To further enhance its dust and rain protection function, a protective eave 5 is provided above the charging port. The protective eave protrudes from the charging port side of the shell, and its upper end surface is flat, while its lower end surface is an arc-shaped structure, which can cover the charging port below it.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the positioning plate and the housing are an integral structure, which can effectively improve the connection strength between the two. There are two positioning plates, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the charging port to ensure the stability of the socket when it is installed on the electric vehicle body.

[0024] Working principle of this utility model:

[0025] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, during installation, the screw 6 is embedded in the positioning hole 402. The inclined surface 401 on the positioning plate 4 is used to ensure complete contact between the inclined surface 401 and the electric vehicle body 7. At this time, the socket is in an inclined state, with its opening (charging port 3) tilted downwards, effectively providing dust and rain protection. Compared to traditional electric vehicle sockets, it eliminates the need for protective covers, torsion springs, and other components, effectively reducing manufacturing costs. Furthermore, charging does not require opening the protective cover; the charger plug can be directly inserted into the socket, making operation simpler and more convenient.

[0026] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and thus all changes falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this utility model.
