[0002] As an energy supply station for electric vehicles, an electric vehicle charging pile is an important supporting infrastructure necessary for the commercial development of electric vehicles. A charging gun is a device that is connected to the mains electricity on the electric vehicle charging pile and supplies power to the electric vehicle. When the electric vehicle is charging, the charging gun is inserted into the on-vehicle charging port to connect with the on-vehicle charger. CP is the control connection line between the charging gun and the on-vehicle charger. When the charging gun is normally connected to the on-vehicle charger, the voltage is 12V. After the charging control circuit in the charging gun confirms that the signal is normal, the positive voltage of the PWM rectangular wave voltage generated by CP drops from 12V to 6V, and the negative voltage is 12V. After receiving this signal, the charging gun charges the electric vehicle normally.
[0003] With the popularization of new energy vehicles, to meet the charging needs of electric vehicles, the number and types of charging piles are becoming more and more diverse. The existing portable charging guns usually adopt the method of installing a control box outside the charging gun. This method has a large volume, is not convenient for operation and carrying, and has a single output power, and cannot meet the requirements of the user's household line load, thus forming a potential safety hazard. Therefore, we propose an internal control module circuit of a portable AC charging gun. Content of the Utility Model
