[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0023] See also Figure 1-5The utility model provides a technical solution: a new energy vehicle charging port protection structure, including a mounting seat 1, the mounting seat 1 is an inwardly concave rectangular structure, a charging socket 2 is arranged inside the mounting seat 1, an inner cover 3 is hinged on the outside of the charging socket 2, and an outer cover 4 is hinged on the outside of the mounting seat 1, a bottom plate 6 is installed on the inner bottom wall of the mounting seat 1, the bottom plate 6 is a strip structure, a horizontal axis 7 is installed on the top of the bottom plate 6, both sides of the top of the horizontal axis 7 are welded and fixed to the top of the bottom plate 6 through supporting blocks, and left push blocks 8 and right push blocks 9 are movably arranged on both sides of the horizontal axis 7, and locking blocks 10 are welded and fixed on the corresponding sides of the left push block 8 and the right push block 9, and a linkage mechanism for driving the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 to move horizontally is arranged in the middle of the horizontal axis 7. The mounting seat 1 of this structure When the charging gun is inserted into the charging socket 2 for charging, the bottom plate 6 can be pre-installed inside the mounting base 1 and the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 can be placed on both sides of the charging socket 2, and the linkage mechanism in the middle of the horizontal axis 7 can drive the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 to move laterally so as to close or move away from each other on both sides of the charging socket 2, so that the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 can drive the locking block 10 to assist in clamping the charging gun inserted in the charging socket 2, thereby improving the stability of the charging gun inserted into the charging socket 2, and avoiding the problem that the charging line connected to the charging gun is easily pulled off from the charging socket 2 by external force and affects normal use. The linkage mechanism in the middle of the horizontal axis 7 includes a groove 71, a gear 72, and a gear 73. The rack 73 and the servo motor 74 are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the gear 72, and the outer ends of the rack 73 are respectively fixedly connected to the side corresponding to the bottom ends of the left push block 8 and the right push block 9. The racks 73 are distributed parallel to each other at the upper and lower ends of the gear 72, and the racks 73 are meshed with the gear 72. The servo motor 74 is fixed to the back side of the middle of the horizontal axis 7 by bolts, and the output end of the servo motor 74 is connected to the rotating shaft at the center of the gear 72. When the servo motor 74 of this structure is driven, the gear 72 will be driven to rotate inside the groove 71. When the gear 72 rotates, the two racks 73 can be synchronously linked. When 73 is linked, the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 will be pulled in different directions respectively, so as to realize the effect of quickly closing or moving the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 together. The inner wall of the locking block 10 is an arc-shaped structure, and a rubber pad is bonded and fixed on the inner wall of the locking block 10. The locking block 10 of this structure can be clamped and fixed on the outside of the corresponding position of the charging gun more closely, thereby improving the stability during the limit, and the rubber pad on the inner wall of the locking block 10 can prevent the locking block 10 from directly and rigidly contacting the outer wall of the charging gun. The bottom ends of the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 are both provided with a through hole that coincides with the horizontal axis 7, and the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 are slidably connected with the horizontal axis 7 through the through holes at the bottom ends. The left push block 8 and the right push block 9 of this structure can slide smoothly outside the horizontal axis 7 through the through holes.To improve the stability during lateral displacement, a sealing ring 14 is provided on the inner side of the inner cover 3, and the sealing ring 14 corresponds to the frame position of the charging socket 2. When the inner cover 3 of this structure is closed, the sealing ring 14 will be driven to squeeze the inner wall of the frame of the charging socket 2, thereby improving the tightness of the charging socket 2 when the cover is closed. An extension block 5 is symmetrically provided on the inner side of the outer cover 4, and the extension block 5 is a rectangular structure. Guide shafts 13 are provided at both upper and lower ends of the inner side of the outer cover 4, and rubber sleeves 12 are slidably sleeved on the outside of the guide shaft 13 at both upper and lower ends of the adjacent side of the extension block 5. The extension block 5 of this structure can be extended on both sides of the outer cover 4 by sliding along the outside of the guide shaft 13 through the rubber sleeve 12, thereby expanding the outer cover 4 when it is turned out. The rear shielding range enables the outer cover 4 to better protect the charging socket 2 from rain during charging. The corresponding side of the extension block 5 is provided with a magnetic strip 11, and the width of the extension block 5 is smaller than the width of the outer cover 4. The two extension blocks 5 of this structure can be combined with each other and fixed by adsorption with the magnetic strip 11 when not in use, so as to quickly complete the storage on the inner side of the outer cover 4. The inner bottom wall of the mounting seat 1 is provided with an embedding groove adapted to the bottom plate 6, and both sides of the bottom plate 6 are fixed to the embedding groove on the inner bottom wall of the mounting seat 1 by screws. The bottom plate 6 of this structure can be embedded in the embedding groove on the inner bottom wall of the mounting seat 1 and fixed with screws, so as to be disassembled and assembled inside the mounting seat 1, which is more convenient to use.
[0024] Working principle: when using the new energy vehicle charging port protection structure, first, when the mounting base 1 is fixed at the corresponding position on the car and the charging gun needs to be connected for charging, open the outer cover 4, and then embed the bottom plate 6 into the fitting groove on the inner bottom wall of the mounting base 1 and fix it with screws. After the bottom plate 6 is installed, the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 are placed on both sides of the charging port 2. When the charging gun is inserted into the charging port 2, start the servo motor 74. When the servo motor 74 is driven, it will drive the gear 72 to rotate inside the groove 71. When the gear 72 rotates, it will synchronously generate a linkage with the two racks 73. When the two racks 73 are linked, they will pull the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 in different directions until the left push block 8 and the right push block 9 are connected. The blocks 9 are closed together to drive the locking block 10 to be clamped in the corresponding position on the outside of the charging gun, so that the stability of the charging gun inserted into the charging socket 2 can be improved. At the same time, the operator can pull the extension blocks 5 on the inner side of the outer cover 4 respectively. When the extension blocks 5 are subjected to force, they can slide along the outside of the guide shaft 13 through the rubber sleeve 12 to extend on both sides of the outer cover 4 to expand the shielding range. In this way, the outer cover 4 can better protect the charging socket 2 from rain during charging. When charging is completed, the two extension blocks 5 can be combined with each other and fixed by the magnetic strip 11 for storage, and then the inner cover 3 is covered. When the inner cover 3 is closed, it will drive the sealing ring 14 to be squeezed on the inner wall of the frame of the charging socket 2. Finally, the outer cover 4 is closed on the outside of the mounting base 1 to complete a series of tasks.
