[0029] As a possible implementation, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the target box 10 may also be provided with a third clamping member 9 for clamping with the second support rod 52, and the third clamping member 9 is located below the first end of the second support rod 52. With this design, after the first clamping member 3 is separated from the target position of the charging cable 4, the second support rod 52 can be clamped and fixed by the third clamping member 9 to prevent the bracket 5 from shaking.

[0030] As a possible implementation, see Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first clamping member 3 can be composed of a first clamp portion ( Figure 3 The lower semicircular ring part) and the second clamp part ( Figure 3 The first end of the first clamp part ( Figure 3 The left end of the lower semicircular ring portion) is connected to the first end of the second clamp portion ( Figure 3 The left end of the upper semicircular ring portion is hinged, and the second end of the first clamp portion ( Figure 3 The right end of the lower semicircular ring portion is provided with a second end ( Figure 3 With this design, the first clamp part and the second clamp part can be hinged by the second movable hinge 31, and the first clamp part and the second clamp part can be locked by the locking buckle 32 when the first clamping member 3 and the charging cable 4 are at the target position.

[0031] During actual application, the surface of the clamp can be wrapped with an insulating rubber pad to prevent accidents and thus improve the safety of the marine charging cable connection device during use.

[0032] As a possible implementation, refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the target box body 10 can be the battery box of an electric ship or the charging seat installation box of a charging pile.

[0033] For the sake of easy understanding, the structure and working principle of the above-mentioned marine charging cable connection device will be described exemplarily below with a specific application as an example.

[0034] Refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the marine charging cable connection device mainly consists of a bracket 5 and a first clamping member 3 (specifically a Figure 3 clamp as shown, and the surface of the clamp is wrapped with an insulating rubber pad) installed thereon. The bracket 5 is composed of Figure 2 two first support rods 51, a second support rod 52 and a horizontally arranged support beam 53 as shown. The lower end of one first support rod 51 is fixedly connected to the left end of the support beam 53, and the upper end of this first support rod 51 can be used to be hinged to the target box body 10 through a first movable hinge 6. The lower end of the other first support rod 51 is fixedly connected to the right end of the support beam 53, and the upper end of this first support rod 51 is hinged to the target box body 10 (specifically the battery box of an electric ship or the charging seat installation box of a charging pile) through a first movable hinge 6. The first clamping member 3 is fixedly installed at the midpoint of the support beam 53. The upper end of the second support rod 52 is fixedly connected to the first clamping member 3, and the lower end of this second support rod 52 can be used to be placed in the support groove 7 on the target box body 10.

Before charging the electric ship, the upper end of the second support rod 52 of the bracket 5 can be hinged to the target box body 10 through a first movable hinge 6, and the lower end of the second support rod 52 of the bracket 5 can be placed at the support groove 7. When charging the electric ship, the charging gun 2 can be inserted into the charging seat 1 and the length of the charging cable 4 can be adjusted. Then, the charging cable 4 can be clamped and fixed with a clamp. Thus, the weight of the charging cable 4 below the clamp is borne by the bracket 5, changing the situation where the entire weight of the charging cable 4 was only borne by points A and B when the marine charging cable connection device was not used, that is, the entire weight of the charging cable 4 is borne by points A, B, and C. Even if the electric ship being charged sways on the water surface, it can effectively share the force on the charging gun 2 and the charging seat 1, extend the product life of the charging gun 2 and the charging seat 1, and improve the safety of charging the electric ship.

[0036] Refer to Figures 1 to 3As shown, after the electric ship is fully charged, the lower end of the second support rod 52 of the bracket 5 can be taken out from the support groove 7, and the two first support rods 51 of the bracket 5 can be stuck in the second engaging member (specifically, the card slot) on the target box body 10, and the second support rod 52 of the bracket 5 can be stuck in the second engaging member (specifically, the card slot) on the target box body 10, so as to prevent the bracket 5 from shaking.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
