AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing new energy vehicle charging control box lacks a protective structure for opening the cover when the cover is accidentally opened, resulting in the control circuit board always being in communication with external high-voltage charging equipment, which poses a safety hazard of electric shock accidents.

Method used

A new energy vehicle charging control box is designed, with a limit switch fixed on the inner wall of the box body. The limit switch is electrically connected to the control circuit board, and the trigger end of the limit switch abuts against the lower end face of the box cover. When the cover is accidentally opened, the limit switch loses triggering and is in an off state. The control circuit board receives the cover opening signal and transmits it to the external high-voltage charging device to stop power supply.

Benefits of technology

It effectively avoids the occurrence of electric shock accidents, eliminates the safety hazards of the charging control box, and ensures safety during use.
