Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of charging guns, in particular to a charging gun tail structure and an AC charging gun. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing popularity of new energy electric vehicles, the development of new energy vehicle charging technology is also accelerating. New energy charging guns are used to charge new energy electric vehicles and provide energy for them. In the current common charging gun structure, the connection between the rear shell of the charging gun and the charging gun cable is often sealed and waterproofed by threading it into a waterproof sleeve or by fixing the connecting sleeve and the shell with screws. However, this conventional method of fixing the rear end of the charging gun has poor sealing stability, and the rear end of the charging gun is prone to loosening, affecting the safety performance of the charging gun. In addition, the installation method is cumbersome, the assembly of the charging gun is time-consuming, and the cost is high. Utility Model Content

[0003] In response to the shortcomings in the existing technology, the purpose of the present utility model is to provide a charging gun tail structure and an AC charging gun, which can effectively solve the technical problems of the existing charging gun tail, such as poor sealing stability, easy loosening, inability to assemble quickly, and high assembly cost.

[0004] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] One technical solution of the present invention provides a charging gun tail structure, including a gun tail housing. The gun tail housing is a cylindrical structure with two open ends and a hollow interior. A clamp, a cable sheath, and a waterproof ring are connected to the inner side of the gun tail housing. A charging gun cable is passed through the gun tail housing to connect the electronic components inside the charging gun and an external power supply.

[0006] The cable sheath ring is arranged on the outside of the charging gun wire and is fixedly connected to it. The clamp is sleeved on the outside of the cable sheath. The gun tail shell is sleeved on the outside of the clamp. The upper end of the gun tail shell is connected to the charging gun shell. The lower end of the gun tail shell is snap-connected to the clamp. The waterproof ring is arranged between the gun tail shell and the charging gun wire and forms an interference fit with both the gun tail shell and the charging gun wire.

[0007] At least two outwardly protruding blocks are arranged on the outer side of the clamp, and a slot matching the shape of the blocks is arranged on the inner side of the gun tail shell. The blocks correspond to the slots one by one and are snap-connected.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the charging gun wire is fixedly connected to the cable sheath, and the gun tail shell and the clamp are quickly snap-connected by setting mutually cooperating clamps and slots, avoiding the use of screws for multiple fixations, saving time and effort; the gun tail shell can be quickly installed and fixedly connected to the charging gun wire through the clamp and cable sheath, and the connection sealing between the gun tail shell and the charging gun wire is improved by setting a waterproof ring, thereby improving the waterproof effect.

[0009] Furthermore, the clamp comprises a first clamp and a second clamp, both of which are semicircular and buckled together to be sleeved over the exterior of the cable sheath and fixedly connected thereto. Each of the first and second clamps has at least one clamping block on its outer curved surface. The clamp utilizes a detachable, half-and-half structure for easy removal and installation. The breech housing is provided with at least two clamping slots that engage with the clamping blocks on the first and second clamps, respectively, thereby securing the breech housing to the clamp.

[0010] Furthermore, the first clamp has two end faces provided with insertion holes, and the second clamp has two end faces provided with insertion posts. When the first clamp and the second clamp are joined together, the insertion posts are inserted into the insertion holes. By inserting the insertion posts into the insertion holes, the first clamp and the second clamp can be quickly connected, avoiding misalignment of the connection position.

[0011] Furthermore, at least two limiting pins are provided on the inner curved surfaces of each of the first and second clamps, and limiting holes are defined in the cable sheath, into which the limiting pins are inserted. The first and second clamps are sheathed onto the cable sheath from both sides and joined together. The limiting pins engage with the limiting holes to securely connect the first and second clamps to the cable sheath, defining their respective installation positions on the cable sheath and preventing the clamps from shifting during axial insertion and removal of the gun breech block housing for a snap-on connection.

[0012] Furthermore, the first and second clamps each have an arc-shaped hollow groove formed therein, the sidewalls of the hollow groove being connected to the clamping block, and movable notches communicating with the hollow grooves are formed on both sides of the clamping block. When the gun tail housing is snap-fitted to the clamping member, the clamping block is squeezed inwardly along the clamping member's radial direction. The movable notches facilitate partial inward elastic deformation of the clamping block, and the hollow grooves provide a certain amount of displacement space for the clamping block, achieving a snap-fit ​​connection with the clamping grooves under the elastic action of the clamping block material.

[0013] Furthermore, a clamping ring is provided on the outer sleeve of the charging gun wire, which is located between the gun tail shell and the charging gun wire, and the waterproof ring is located between the clamping ring and the cable sheath. The clamping ring plays a limiting role. When the gun tail shell is sleeved on the charging gun wire and is connected with the clamp part, it prevents the waterproof ring from sliding and dislocating on the charging gun wire, and cannot form an interference fit with both the gun tail shell and the charging gun wire.

[0014] Furthermore, the cable sheath is integrally formed with the charging gun line, and the outer ring of the cable sheath is provided with a groove, which is located outside the gun tail shell, and the groove is used to connect the elastic rope on the gun head dust cover.

[0015] The present utility model also provides an AC charging gun, comprising a charging gun housing, a charging gun head, a charging gun tail, a gun head dust cover, and a control switch and electronic components arranged inside the charging gun housing and connected to the charging gun wire. The charging gun tail adopts the charging gun tail structure as described in any one of claims 1 to 4, so as to seal and fix the gun tail housing and the charging gun wire.

[0016] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] The tail structure of the charging gun provided by the utility model cooperates with the gun tail shell and the cable sheath through a clamp, and can achieve a quick fixed connection through a snap connection. The waterproof sealing performance between the gun tail shell and the charging gun wire is improved by setting a waterproof ring. The assembly of the charging gun tail structure is simple and time-saving, which can improve the stability of the connection between the gun tail shell and the charging gun wire, prevent it from loosening, and improve the service life and safety performance of the charging gun.

Figure 1 The cable sheath 3 is integrally formed around the exterior of the charging gun cable 5 and fixedly connected thereto. The clamp 2 is clamped around the exterior of the cable sheath 3, and the gun base housing 1 is sleeved around the exterior of the clamp 2. The upper end of the gun base housing 1 is connected to the charging gun housing 100, and the lower end of the gun base housing 1 is snap-connected to the clamp 2. A waterproof ring 4 is disposed between the gun base housing 1 and the charging gun cable 5, forming an interference fit with both the gun base housing 1 and the charging gun cable 5 to improve the sealing between the gun base housing 1 and the charging gun cable 5 and enhance the waterproofing effect. The outer surface of the clamp 2 is provided with at least two outwardly protruding blocks 21. The inner surface of the gun base housing 1 is provided with a slot 11 that matches the shape of the blocks 21. The blocks 21 correspond to the slots 11 one-to-one and snap-connect to each other, thereby achieving a connection between the gun base housing 1 and the cable sheath 3 and the charging gun cable 5.

[0032] The charging gun tail structure provided in this embodiment has a fixed connection between the charging gun wire 5 and the cable sheath 3. By providing a mutually cooperating clamping block 21 and a clamping slot 11, a quick snap-on connection between the gun tail housing 1 and the clamping member 2 is achieved, avoiding the use of screws for fixing in multiple places, saving time and effort; the gun tail housing 1 can be quickly installed and fixedly connected to the charging gun wire 5 through the clamping member 2 and the cable sheath 3, and the waterproof ring 4 is provided to improve the sealing of the connection between the gun tail housing 1 and the charging gun wire 5, thereby improving the waterproof effect.

[0033] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4In this embodiment, the clamp 2 comprises a first clamp 22 and a second clamp 23, both of which are semicircular in shape. They can be mated and snapped together, fitted over the exterior of the cable sheath 3 and securely connected to it. Two outwardly protruding blocks 21 are located on the outer curved surfaces of each clamp 22 and clamp 23. The clamp 2 utilizes a detachable, half-and-half structure for easy removal and installation. Two slots 11 are provided on the breech housing 1, which engage with the blocks 21 on the first and second clamps 22 and 23, respectively, to securely connect the breech housing 1 to the clamp 2. The first clamp 22 has two end surfaces with insertion holes 221, while the second clamp 23 has two end surfaces with insertion posts 231. When the first and second clamps 22 and 23 are joined, the insertion posts 231 are inserted into the insertion holes 221. By plugging the plug post 231 into the plug hole 221 , the connection between the first clamp 22 and the second clamp 23 can be quickly completed, avoiding misalignment of the connection position.

[0034] refer to Figures 2 to 4 In this embodiment, two limiting pins 24 are provided on the inner curved surfaces of the first clamp 22 and the second clamp 23, and limiting holes 31 are provided on the cable sheath 3.
