Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned vehicle charging, in particular to a charging bin for unmanned vehicles. Background Technique

[0002] A charging bin for unmanned vehicles is a charging facility designed specifically for unmanned vehicles (such as automatic guided vehicles AGV, unmanned aerial vehicles, etc.). It is mainly used for storing and charging the batteries or power systems of unmanned vehicles. The design and functions of such charging bins vary according to application scenarios and types of unmanned vehicles. In fields such as unmanned warehousing, logistics, agriculture, and aerial photography, charging bins for unmanned vehicles play an important role. They not only improve the working efficiency and usability of unmanned vehicles, but also reduce the costs and risks of manual intervention, providing strong support for the wide application of unmanned vehicles.

[0003] Currently, when an AGV unmanned vehicle is charging, the unmanned vehicle is usually equipped with a charging bin provided with a wireless charging device. The transmitting end of the wireless charging device cooperates with the receiving end of the unmanned vehicle to achieve wireless charging of the unmanned vehicle. However, when the wireless charging device of the unmanned vehicle is arranged in the charging bin, the multiple wireless charging devices arranged in the charging bin lack protection. When the unmanned vehicle has a forward route failure when going to charge the wireless charging device, the unmanned vehicle is likely to damage the wireless charging device in the charging bin. For this reason, we propose a charging bin for unmanned vehicles. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a charging bin for unmanned vehicles. A charging protection mechanism for protecting the wireless charging device is arranged at the charging bin body for unmanned vehicles. The charging protection mechanism assembles a structure for protecting the wireless charging device at the base buried plate of the charging bin body. When the unmanned vehicle fails and impacts the wireless charging device, the wireless charging device has a protection structure, ensuring that the unmanned vehicle and the wireless charging device are not easily damaged by each other during the failure collision of the unmanned vehicle, and effectively solving the problems in the background technique.

[0011] Further, ball-embedding grooves are opened on the outer cover walls of the U-shaped side cover and the U-shaped middle cover close to the wireless charging device, and the half spheres of the hollow rubber balls are clamped and bonded in the ball-embedding grooves;

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer cover walls of the U-shaped side cover and the U-shaped middle cover are connected by embedding and bonding the hollow rubber balls in the ball-embedding grooves.

[0013] Further, the sleeve body of the wear-resistant column sleeve is clamped and bonded to the outer sleeve of the flexible column sleeve, and the half sleeve bodies of the wear-resistant column sleeve and the flexible column sleeve are exposed from the fixing groove;

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, after the sleeve body of the wear-resistant column sleeve is clamped outside the flexible column sleeve and bonded, the flexible column sleeve can be protected by the wear-resistant column sleeve to avoid abrasion of the flexible column sleeve when the unmanned vehicle collides with the flexible column sleeve.

[0015] Further, the bolt body of the T-shaped bolt passes through the central column hole of the flexible column sleeve, and the threaded bottom bolt body of the T-shaped bolt passing through the flexible column sleeve is screwed into the base embedded plate;
