DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] 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.

[0027] See also Figure 1-5 A street lamp with a charging pile for electric vehicles comprises a street lamp body 1 and a charging pile 2, wherein the street lamp body 1 is fixedly arranged on the top of the charging pile 2. The street lamp and the charging pile 2 for electric vehicles are combined with each other, and the charging pile 2 and the street lamp body 1 share a power supply line, which is convenient for charging a large number of electric vehicles anytime and anywhere.

[0028] The charging pile 2 includes a charging shell 4, and a receiving chamber 6 is provided on the side of the charging shell 4. A charging gun 8 and a cable 9 are placed in the receiving chamber 6. An automatic winding device is also provided in the receiving chamber 6 to automatically store the cable 9. An opening flap 5 is provided at the opening of the receiving chamber 6. The charging shell 4 protects the internal components from external dust and rain erosion. The receiving chamber 6 mainly contains the charging gun 8 and the cable 9, which are most susceptible to external environmental erosion and improve the service life of the two.

[0029] The accommodating chambers 6 are respectively arranged on two symmetrical sides of the charging housing 4, and the positions of the two accommodating chambers 6 are distributed diagonally. In order to make the most of the existing space and resources, two charging guns 8 are arranged on a charging pile 2 to maximize the use of resources and reasonably allocate the space on both sides of the street lamp. When two vehicles need to be charged at the same time, they can be parked on both sides of the street lamp for charging respectively, thereby improving efficiency. In addition, the accommodating chambers 6 are arranged diagonally, which increases the space utilization rate inside the charging housing 4 and saves materials.

[0030] The interior of the accommodating chamber 6 is provided with a socket for the charging gun 8, into which the charging gun 8 is inserted, and automatic winding devices are provided on the two sides of the accommodating chamber 6. The socket of the charging gun 8 is inserted thereon when the charging gun 8 is not in use, to prevent the user from misplacing it and damaging the charging gun 8. The automatic winding device can re-collect and concentrate the cable 9 that has been pulled apart by the user into the accommodating chamber 6 after the user uses the charging gun 8, which not only ensures the beauty but also protects the cable 9 from being damaged by various external reasons, thereby increasing its service life and meeting economic benefits.

[0031] A protective shell 7 is disposed on one inner side of the accommodating chamber 6, and a mounting hole 19 is disposed in the middle of the protective shell 7. The protective shell 7 is used to protect the spring 13 installed therein and to limit the deformation pattern of the spring 13, thereby improving the utilization rate of the spring 13. The mounting hole 19 allows the rotating shaft 14 to pass through, thereby supporting one end of the rotating shaft 14.

[0032] The automatic winding device includes a spring 13, which is assembled in the protective shell 7. One end of the rotating shaft 14 is fixedly provided at the end of the spring leaf in the middle of the spring 13. The rotating shaft 14 passes through the mounting hole 19. The other end of the rotating shaft 14 is equipped with a bearing 16, which is assembled with an inner side surface of the accommodating chamber 6 away from the protective shell 7. When the user pulls out the charging gun 8 from the accommodating chamber 6 for charging, the pulled-out cable 9 drives the rotating shaft 14 to rotate, and the end of the rotating shaft 14 connected to the spring leaf in the middle of the spring 13 drives the spring 13 to contract inward and begins to accumulate elastic potential energy; after the user finishes using the charging gun 8, when the charging gun 8 is returned to its original position, the elastic potential energy of the spring 13 is released, and the scattered cable 9 is re-stored on the rotating shaft 14. The other end of the rotating shaft 14 is assembled with the other side of the accommodating chamber 6 through the bearing 16, so that both ends of the rotating shaft 14 are mounted inside the accommodating chamber 6, so that the cable 9 is stored with a supporting rod and a certain space is provided for the storage of the cable 9.

[0033] The rotating shaft 14 is hollow, and a through hole 15 is also provided in the middle of the rotating shaft 14. The end of the cable 9 away from the charging gun 8 extends into the rotating shaft 14 from the through hole 15, and extends into the interior of the charging pile 2 from the end of the rotating shaft 14 away from the protective shell 7 to connect with the circuit therein, and the other parts of the cable 9 are wound around the rotating shaft 14 in an orderly manner. Since the other end of the cable 9 away from the charging gun 8 needs to be connected to the charging circuit at all times, the end of the cable 9 connected to the charging circuit should be kept stationary during the process of pulling out the cable 9. Therefore, this end is inserted into the hollow part of the rotating shaft 14. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 14, it can be ensured that this end of the cable 9 only rotates without other deviations.

[0034] The front of the charging shell 4 is provided with a button 10 and a button 2 11, which respectively control the opening of the two opening flaps 5. The front of the charging shell 4 is also provided with a sounder 18 and a display screen 12. Button 10 and button 2 11 respectively control the opening of the opening flaps 5 of the two accommodating chambers 6. The user selects the charging gun 8 to be used according to the needs, and then presses the corresponding button to open the opening flap 5 for charging. After the user plugs the charging gun 8 back, the socket of the charging gun 8 will detect whether the charging gun 8 is plugged in. If it is not plugged in, the sounder 18 will remind the user to reinsert the charging gun 8 to ensure that the charging gun 8 is plugged in. During the charging process, the user can check the charging progress and charging time through the display screen 12.

[0035] The opening flap 5 can be rotated outward around the top edge to open or close. A flap shaft 20 is provided on the top of the opening flap 5, and the two ends of the flap shaft 20 are respectively assembled on the two sides of the accommodating chamber 6. A motor (not shown in the figure) is provided inside the charging shell 4, and the motor shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the flap shaft 20. The opening flap 5 is opened upward and outward, rather than opened from the side like the door. In this opening method, after the opening flap 5 is fully opened, a structure similar to a shed will be formed on the outside of the accommodating chamber 6. If it rains outside during the charging process, the opening flap 5 can prevent rainwater from entering the accommodating chamber 6, but opening to the side cannot produce this effect. The motor is connected to the flap shaft 20 on the opening flap 5 to control the opening and closing of the opening flap 5.

[0036] A base 3 is also provided at the bottom of the charging pile 2, and the base 3 can fix the charging pile 2 on the ground to improve the stability of the entire device.

[0037] Working principle: The charging pile 2 and the street lamp body 1 are fixedly installed on the roadside through the base 3 at the bottom. When a tram needs to be charged, the car is parked at a suitable position near the charging pile 2, and the button 10 or button 2 11 close to the car is selected. The button 10 or button 2 11 is pressed, and the motor drives the flip cover 5 to open outward and upward. The user takes out the charging gun 8 inside to charge the tram. In the process of taking out the charging gun 8, the cable 9 is removed from the rotating shaft 14, driving the rotating shaft 14 to rotate so that the spring spring 13 accumulates elastic potential energy. When charging is completed, the user re-inserts the charging gun 8 into the charging gun 8 socket inside the accommodating chamber 6. At this time, the spring spring 13 begins to recover and release the elastic potential energy therein, driving the rotating shaft 14 to reverse, and rewinding the scattered cable 9 onto the rotating shaft 14, realizing the automatic winding function of the cable 9. When the user plugs the charging gun 8 back, the socket of the charging gun 8 will detect whether the charging gun 8 is plugged in. If it is not plugged in, the sounder 18 will remind the user to re-plug the charging gun 8. After the user re-plugs it in, the motor automatically starts and drives the flip cover 5 to close, protecting the internal device from the outside wind and sun. During the charging process, the user can check the charging progress and other conditions through the display screen 12. Thereby, the charging gun 8 is stored and protected when not in use, and the cable is automatically stored, thereby increasing the service life of the device.
