[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments.

[0034] Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 As described in the background art, in the related art solution, the cover plate 30 may move toward one side of the panel 20 under the action of an external force (such as gravity), thereby clamping the user or the power cord, affecting the user's experience.

[0036] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application aims to provide a power interface assembly and a car, which can prevent the cover from clamping the user or the power cord after opening by slidingly connecting the cover and the cover fixing seat, thereby improving the user's experience.

[0037] The contents of the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can understand the contents of the present application in more detail.

[0038] Figure 2 A simplified structural diagram of a power interface assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application in a first state at a first viewing angle; Figure 3 A simplified structural diagram of a power interface assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application in a second state at a first viewing angle; Figure 4 for Figure 2 AA section view; Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the structure of a power interface assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application at a second viewing angle. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The perspective shown is the outer side of the vehicle body 40 (i.e., the side facing the user when in use, or the side that the user can observe); Figure 5 The viewing angle shown is the inner side of the vehicle body (ie, the side facing away from the user during use, or the side that cannot be observed by the user).

[0039] Please refer to Figure 2-Figure 5, this embodiment provides a power interface assembly, including a power interface 100, a panel 200, a cover plate 300 and a cover plate fixing seat 400. The cover plate fixing seat 400 is used to connect with the vehicle body 40, for example, the cover plate fixing seat 400 and the vehicle body 40 can be connected and fixed by welding, bolting, etc.; the panel 200 is fixed on the cover plate fixing seat 400, for example, the panel 200 and the cover plate fixing seat 400 can be connected and fixed by welding, bolting, clamping, etc.; the power interface 100 is penetrated by the panel 200; for example, the power interface 100 can be fixedly connected with the panel 200 by bonding, clamping, threading, etc. The cover plate 300 and the cover plate fixing seat 400 can be slidably connected, for example, the cover plate 300 and the cover plate fixing seat 400 can be slidably connected by structures such as a slide block, a slide rail, etc.; the cover plate 300 can open or cover the power interface 100 when sliding along the cover plate fixing seat 400.

[0040] In this embodiment, the cover plate 300 is arranged parallel to the panel 200, wherein the cover plate 300 is located on the outer side of the panel 200 (i.e., the side facing the user when in use, or the side that the user can observe). The power interface 100 can be exposed by sliding the cover plate 300 to facilitate the user to use electricity; or the power interface 100 can be shielded. The sliding direction of the cover plate 300 can be set horizontally or vertically. Preferably, when the cover plate 300 slides to open the power interface 100, the cover plate 300 can slide in the direction of gravity, thereby preventing the cover plate 300 from closing again under the action of gravity after opening, so that the user or the power cord will not be clamped. It can be understood that the above effect can also be achieved when the cover plate 300 slides in the horizontal direction or other inclined directions.

[0041] It can be seen from the above description that this embodiment prevents the cover 300 from being clamped on the user or the power cord after being opened by slidably connecting the cover 300 and the cover fixing seat 400, which is beneficial to improving the user's experience.

[0042] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 In this embodiment, the cover fixing seat 400 is provided with a relative first slide groove 410 and a second slide groove 420, and the cover 300 is provided with a relative first slide rail 310 and a second slide rail 320. The first slide rail 310 is slidably connected to the first slide groove 410, and the second slide rail 320 is slidably connected to the second slide groove 420, thereby realizing a sliding connection between the cover 300 and the cover fixing seat 400.

[0043] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a first groove 311 is further provided on the first slide rail 310, and a second groove 321 is further provided on the second slide rail 320. Damping oil is filled between the first groove 311 and the first slide groove 410, and between the second groove 321 and the second slide groove 420. By filling the damping oil between the first groove 311 and the first slide groove 410, and between the second groove 321 and the second slide groove 420, a certain resistance can be felt during the opening and closing process of the cover plate 300, thereby improving the hand feel and sense of grade.

[0044] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the cover plate fixing seat 400 is welded to the vehicle body 40. For example, a plurality of welding points 430 may be provided on the cover plate fixing seat 400, and the cover plate fixing seat 400 may be welded and fixed to the vehicle body 40 at the welding points 430 by a process such as puncture welding. A first opening 440 is provided on the cover plate fixing seat 400, and a plurality of welding points 430 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the first opening 440, and the power interface 100 and the cover plate 300 are both located in the first opening 440.

[0045] Furthermore, the panel 200 is detachably connected to the cover plate fixing seat 400, and along the sliding direction of the cover plate 300, a second opening 210 is provided at the first end of the panel 200, and the second opening 210 corresponds to a part of the first opening 440, and the overlapping area between the second opening 210 and a part of the first opening 440 provides space for the cover plate 300 to slide into the vehicle body 40.

[0046] Preferably, along the sliding direction of the cover plate 300, the second end of the panel 200 of this embodiment is provided with a limiting groove 220, and the cover plate 300 further includes a limiting block 330, and the limiting block 330 is located in the limiting groove 220. Through the matching structure of the limiting block 330 and the limiting groove 220, the sliding range of the cover plate 300 can be limited, and the sliding direction of the cover plate 300 can be further guided.

[0047] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In order to facilitate the user to slide the cover 300, a grip portion 340 is provided on the side of the cover 300 away from the panel 200 in this embodiment. The grip portion 340 protrudes from the cover 300. The specific structure of the grip portion 340 can be set as needed, for example, it can be a bump, a handle or the like.

[0048] Please continue to refer to Figure 2-Figure 4 The present embodiment further includes a cover frame 500, which surrounds the power interface 100 to shield the connection structure between the cover 300 and the cover fixing seat 400, thereby improving the aesthetics.

[0049] The cover frame 500 of this embodiment can be connected to the cover fixing seat 400. Specifically, the cover frame 500 is provided with a plurality of claws 510, and the cover fixing seat 400 is provided with a plurality of slots, and the plurality of claws 510 correspond to the plurality of slots one by one, and the cover frame 500 is clamped into the corresponding slots through the claws 510.
