[0029] Example 2

[0030] Reference Figure 1 , 3 5 is the second embodiment of the present utility model, and this embodiment is based on the previous embodiment.

[0031] In this embodiment, an LED prompt light 16 is provided at the lower end of the front side of the shell cover 12. The number of the LED prompt lights 16 is two, and the colors of the two LED prompt lights 16 are red and green respectively.

[0037] In this embodiment, a through slot 211 is formed on the front of the connection box 21 , and one end of the connection frame 23 passes through the inner cavity of the through slot 211 and is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the through slot 211 .

[0038] The upper and lower ends of the front side of the shell cover 12 are both provided with T-shaped slots 122 , and the upper and lower ends of the back side of the transparent cover 24 are both fixedly connected with T-shaped blocks 241 . The T-shaped blocks 241 are located in the inner cavity of the T-shaped slots 122 and are slidably connected to the inner cavity of the T-shaped slots 122 .

[0039] like Figure 1 , 4As shown in FIG. 6 , the connecting frame 23 can move along the inner cavity trajectory of the through slot 211 during movement, thereby ensuring the stability of the connecting frame 23 during movement. When the transparent cover 24 is moving, the transparent cover 24 drives the T-block 241 to slide in the inner cavity of the T-slot 122, thereby limiting the transparent cover 24 and preventing the transparent cover 24 from being misplaced during movement.

[0040] When in use, first pull the transparent cover 24, the transparent cover 24 drives the connecting frame 23 and the spring 22 to move to one side, so that the spring 22 stretches and deforms, and the transparent cover 24 will be removed from the front of the shell cover 12, so that the barcode scanner 13 is exposed to the outside, and then the personnel can use the barcode scanner 13 to scan and pay. After the barcode scanning payment is successful, the barcode scanner 13 will transmit a signal to the microcontroller 14 through the RS-485 transmission module, and the microcontroller 14 will transmit a signal to the external circuit breaker through the RS-485 transmission module, so that the external circuit breaker turns on the power supply of the charging pile to realize power supply. At the same time, the microcontroller 14 transmits a signal to the timer 15 through the RS-485 transmission module, so that the timer 15 can count the charging time. When the timer 1 After the timing is completed, the timer 15 transmits a signal to the microcontroller 14 through the RS-485 transmission module, so that the microcontroller 14 transmits a signal to the external circuit breaker through the RS-485 transmission module to block the power supply of the charging pile, thereby stopping the power supply and realizing the control operation of the charging pile. When the barcode scanner 13 is not in use, the transparent cover 24 is released, the spring 22 loses its stretching force, and the connection frame 23 can be driven to move to one side through the reset elastic force of the spring 22, so that the connection frame 23 drives the transparent cover 24 to gradually move to the front of the shell cover 12 and contact with the sealing plate 25, so that the barcode scanner 13 can be shielded and protected to prevent the barcode scanner 13 from being damaged by collision and scratching of external objects when not in use.
