Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of charging port covers, and in particular to a spliced rotating charging port cover and a vehicle. Background Art
[0002] The charging port cover is an integral part of new energy vehicles and one of the components that interacts most with users during actual use. Currently, most charging port covers follow the design of fuel tank caps. A mechanical structure allows the cover to be ejected from the vehicle's exterior to one side, exposing the charging port for charging. Alternatively, the cover can be retracted inwards, exposing the charging port to prevent damage to the vehicle's exterior.
[0003] Currently, the charging port cover opens and closes primarily through a motor-driven single or multiple connecting rods, coupled with a limit lock mechanism to constrain the cover's range of motion. Since these motors are mostly rotary or linear, they occupy a significant amount of interior space within the vehicle, and their lack of integration increases the probability of failure.

[0027] As can be seen from the above content, the utility model provides a spliced rotating charging port cover comprising at least two charging port cover outer panels, an electromagnetic device, a charging port cover opening device, an annular rotating shell and a charging port cover base. Wherein, each charging port cover outer panel is spliced into a circular plate when closed. At least two charging port cover outer panels are mounted on the annular rotating shell through the charging port cover opening device, and at least two charging port cover outer panels are located above the annular rotating shell. The lower end of the annular rotating shell is connected to the charging port cover base, and the charging port cover base is fixedly mounted on the vehicle body, and the vehicle's charging port is arranged in a receiving cavity formed between the charging port cover outer panels, the annular rotating shell and the charging port cover base. The electromagnetic device comprises a first electromagnetic component and a first magnetic component. When the first electromagnetic component generates a magnetic field acting on the first magnetic component, each charging port cover outer panel can be driven to open by the charging port cover opening device. Therefore, in the present invention, an electromagnetic device and a charging port cover opening device are provided, so that when the first electromagnetic component in the electromagnetic device generates a magnetic field acting on the first magnetic component, the charging port cover opening device can drive the outer panels of each charging port cover to open. It can be seen that in the present invention, the opening and closing of each charging port cover outer panel is achieved through integrated electromagnetic drive. Compared with the motor, there are fewer components, which reduces the space occupancy of the entire vehicle, has a high degree of integration, and reduces the probability of failure.
[0028] The innovative features of the present invention include:
[0029] 1. In the present invention, an electromagnetic device and a charging port cover opening device are provided so that when the first electromagnetic member in the electromagnetic device generates a magnetic field acting on the first magnetic member, the charging port cover opening device can drive the outer panels of each charging port cover to open. It can be seen that in the present invention, the opening and closing of each charging port cover outer panel is achieved through an integrated electromagnetic drive. Compared with an electric motor, the number of components is fewer, the space occupancy of the entire vehicle is reduced, the degree of integration is high, and the probability of failure is reduced.
[0030] 2. The spliced charging port cover is more novel in appearance than the integrated charging port cover, giving users a better experience.
[0031] 3. By fixing a first magnetic component on the lower surface of each charging port cover outer panel and arranging a first electromagnetic component on the inner wall of the annular rotating shell, a positive magnetic field can be generated by inputting a positive current into each first electromagnetic component during charging. Each first magnetic component moves upward under the action of the positive magnetic field, and drives each charging port cover outer panel to rotate outward around the upper end of the annular rotating shell through each first hinge device. Finally, each charging port cover outer panel opens outward to expose the charging port, and at the end of charging, each charging port cover outer panel can be closed inward by inputting a reverse current into each first electromagnetic component.
[0032] 4. By setting a second through hole at the connecting portion and a third through hole at the bottom of the corresponding connecting rod, the second through hole and the third through hole are rotatably connected by a rotating pin to achieve a rotational connection between the connecting rod and the slider.
[0033] 5. By setting a slot on the second protrusion and a buckle at the corresponding position of the slider drive ring, the slider drive ring is fixedly connected to the sliders of each group by engaging the slot with the corresponding buckle.
[0034] 6. By arranging a first magnetic part on the lower surface of the slider drive ring, arranging a first electromagnetic part on the upper surface of the lower cylinder, and arranging a slider drive ring sleeve to be connected to the annular rotating shell and each charging port cover outer panel through a connecting rod slider mechanism, a positive magnetic field can be generated by inputting a positive current into each first electromagnetic part during charging. Under the action of the positive magnetic field, each first magnetic part drives the slider drive ring to move upward, and the slider drive ring drives each slider to move upward along each vertical slide groove. Each slider drives each connecting rod to move upward, and each connecting rod pulls the outer side of each charging port cover outer panel inward, and drives each charging port cover outer panel to rotate outward around the upper end of the annular rotating shell through each second hinge device. Finally, each charging port cover outer panel opens outward to expose the charging port, and when charging is completed, each charging port cover outer panel can be closed inward by inputting a reverse current into each first electromagnetic part.
[0035] 7. By disposing a second electromagnetic element on the inner wall of the upper cylinder and a second magnetic element on the inner wall of the annular rotating housing, and by fixing a bearing between the lower end of the inner wall of the annular rotating housing and the outer wall of the upper cylinder, a positive magnetic field can be generated by inputting a positive current into each second electromagnetic element during charging. Under the action of the positive magnetic field, each second magnetic element generates a positive torque, driving the annular rotating housing to rotate forward relative to the outer wall of the upper cylinder via the bearing, which in turn drives the outer panels of the charging port cover to rotate forward. At the end of charging, reverse current can be input into each second electromagnetic element to cause the outer panels of the charging port cover to rotate in the reverse direction. This allows the charging status to be determined simply by the rotation direction of each charging port cover, improving convenience and also serving as a reminder or warning to the user.
[0036] 8. By providing indicator lights, and by arranging each indicator light fixedly mounted on the upper surface of any charging port cover outer panel, during charging, the indicator lights can be turned on simultaneously by powering on the indicator lights, and when charging is complete, the indicator lights can be turned off simultaneously by powering off the indicator lights. This allows the charging status to be determined simply by the on and off of the indicator lights, improving convenience and enhancing the visual appeal.
[0037] 9. A vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes a vehicle body and a spliced rotating charging port cover. The spliced rotating charging port cover is provided with an electromagnetic device and a charging port cover opening device, so that when the first electromagnetic component in the electromagnetic device generates a magnetic field acting on the first magnetic component, the charging port cover opening device can drive the outer panels of each charging port cover to open. It can be seen that the present invention uses integrated electromagnetic drive to realize the opening and closing of the outer panels of each charging port cover. Compared with the motor, there are fewer components, which reduces the space occupancy of the entire vehicle, has a high degree of integration, and reduces the probability of failure.
[0038] Of course, it is not necessary to achieve all the advantages described above simultaneously when implementing any product or method of the present invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0048] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without expending creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0049] It should be noted that the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus comprising a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but may optionally include steps or units not listed, or may optionally include other steps or units inherent to the process, method, product, or apparatus.
[0050] The present invention discloses a spliced rotating charging port cover and a vehicle, which can reduce the space occupied by the entire vehicle, have a high degree of integration, and reduce the probability of failure. The present invention is described in detail below.
[0051] Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of a spliced rotating charging port cover in an open state provided by an embodiment of the utility model. Figure 2 This is a structural schematic diagram of a spliced rotating charging port cover in a closed state provided by an embodiment of the utility model. Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the exploded structure of a spliced rotating charging port cover provided in an embodiment of the utility model.
[0052] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3 The embodiment of the present invention provides a spliced rotating charging port cover, which includes at least two charging port cover outer panels 1, an electromagnetic device, a charging port cover opening device, an annular rotating shell 2 and a charging port cover base 3.
[0053] The shape and number of each charging port cover outer panel 1 can be set according to actual needs. The shape of each charging port cover outer panel 1 can be the same, or the shape of each charging port cover outer panel 1 can be different. For example, the number of charging port cover outer panels 1 is 6, and the shape of each charging port cover outer panel 1 is petal-shaped. Regardless of whether the shape of each charging port cover outer panel 1 is the same or different, the charging port cover outer panels 1 are finally spliced into a complete charging port cover. When the charging port cover outer panels 1 are closed, they are spliced into a circular plate such as Figure 2 shown.
[0054] At least two charging port cover outer panels 1 are installed on the annular rotating shell 2 through the charging port cover opening device, and at least two charging port cover outer panels 1 are located above the annular rotating shell 2.
[0055] The lower end of the annular rotating shell 2 is connected to the charging port cover base 3, and the charging port cover base 3 is fixedly installed on the vehicle body. The charging port of the vehicle is arranged in the accommodating cavity formed by the charging port cover outer panel, the annular rotating shell 2 and the charging port cover base 3.
[0056] Continue to see Figure 3 The charging port cover base 3 includes an upper cylinder 31 and a lower cylinder 32 whose center lines coincide with each other, and the diameter of the upper cylinder 31 is smaller than the diameter of the lower cylinder 32. A first through hole is provided along the center line direction. The lower cylinder 32 is fixedly mounted on the vehicle body, and the vehicle's charging port 4 is provided in the annular rotating shell 2.
[0057] The electromagnetic device includes a first electromagnetic member and a first magnetic member. When the first electromagnetic member generates a magnetic field acting on the first magnetic member, the charging port cover opening device can drive each charging port cover outer panel to open. In other words, the electromagnetic device is used to generate a magnetic driving force, and the charging port cover opening device is used to open and close each charging port cover outer panel 1 under the action of the magnetic driving force of the electromagnetic device. In the embodiment of the present utility model, the structure of the charging port cover opening device can include at least the following two types:
[0058] The first one:
[0059] The charging port cover opening device is a first hinge device, wherein the number of the first hinge devices, the number of the electromagnetic components, and the number of the magnetic components are the same as the number of the charging port cover outer panel 1. For example, the first electromagnetic component can be an electromagnet, and the first magnetic component can be a magnetic metal block.
[0060] A first magnetic component is fixedly installed on the lower surface of each charging port cover outer panel 1. The lower surface of each charging port cover outer panel 1 is connected to the upper end of the annular rotating shell 2 through a first hinge device near the periphery. Each first electromagnetic component is symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the annular rotating shell 2, and each first electromagnetic component is electrically connected to the vehicle's power supply.
[0061] The first magnetic part can be fixedly installed at any position on the lower surface of the outer panel 1 of the charging port cover, and can be set according to actual conditions. Each first electromagnetic part is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the annular rotating shell 2. The first magnetic part and the first electromagnetic part can be fixedly installed by pasting or by any fixed installation method in the prior art. The embodiment of the utility model does not impose any limitation on this.
[0062] The working principle of the first charging port cover is:
[0063] When charging is required, the vehicle's power supply inputs a positive current to each first electromagnetic member, thereby generating a positive magnetic field. Under the action of the positive magnetic field, each first magnetic member moves upward, driving each charging port cover outer panel 1 to rotate outward around the upper end of the annular rotating shell 2 through each first hinge device, and finally each charging port cover outer panel 1 opens outward to reveal the charging port 4;
[0064] When charging is completed, the vehicle's power supply inputs reverse current to each first electromagnetic component to generate a reverse magnetic field. Each first magnetic component moves downward under the action of the reverse magnetic field, and drives each charging port cover outer panel 1 to close inward through each first hinge device.
[0065] Therefore, by fixing a first magnetic component on the lower surface of each charging port cover outer panel 1 and arranging a first electromagnetic component on the inner wall of the annular rotating shell 2, a positive magnetic field can be generated by inputting a positive current into each first electromagnetic component during charging. Each first magnetic component moves upward under the action of the positive magnetic field, and drives each charging port cover outer panel 1 to rotate outward around the upper end of the annular rotating shell 2 through each first hinge device. Finally, each charging port cover outer panel 1 opens outward to expose the charging port 4, and at the end of charging, each charging port cover outer panel 1 can be closed inward by inputting a reverse current into each first electromagnetic component.
[0066] or,
[0067] The second type:
[0068] Continue to see Figure 3 The charging port cover opening device includes at least two sets of connecting rod and slider mechanisms 5, a number of second hinge devices, and a slider drive ring 6. The number of connecting rod and slider mechanisms 5, the number of second hinge devices, the number of first electromagnetic components, and the number of first magnetic components are the same as the number of charging port cover outer panels 1. Each connecting rod and slider mechanism 5 includes a connecting rod 51 and a slider 52 that are rotatably connected to each other. The slider drive ring 6 is made of a non-magnetic material. For example, the first electromagnetic component can be an electric second magnetic component, and the first magnetic component can be a magnetic metal block.
[0069] The outer side wall of the annular rotating shell 2 is provided with at least two vertical sliding grooves 21 corresponding to at least two groups of connecting rod slider mechanisms 5 on a one-to-one basis.
[0070] The lower surface of each charging port cover outer panel 1 is rotatably connected to the top of a connecting rod 51 of a group of connecting rod slider mechanisms 5 near the periphery. The sliders 52 of this group are slidably connected to the vertical slide grooves 21 at the corresponding positions of the annular rotating shell 2. The slider drive ring sleeve 6 is arranged on the periphery of the annular rotating shell 2 and is fixedly connected to the sliders 52 of each group. The first magnetic parts are symmetrically arranged on the lower surface of the slider drive ring 6. The center position of the lower surface of each charging port cover outer panel 1 is connected to the upper end of the annular rotating shell 2 through a second hinge device.
[0071] Each first electromagnetic member is centrally symmetrically disposed on the upper surface of the charging port cover base 3, opposite the lower surface of the slider drive ring 6, and is electrically connected to a power source. The first magnetic member and the first electromagnetic member may be fixedly mounted by gluing or any other conventional fixing method, and this embodiment of the utility model does not impose any limitation thereto.
[0072] Among them, the lower surface of each charging port cover outer panel 1 near the periphery is rotatably connected to the top of a connecting rod 51 of a group of connecting rod slider mechanisms 5 by a hinge connection, or of course, any kind of rotational connection method in the prior art. The embodiment of the present utility model does not impose any limitation on this.
[0073] Continue to see Figure 3 For each group of connecting rod and slider mechanisms 5 , the slider 52 of the group includes a first protrusion 521 , a connecting portion 522 and a second protrusion 523 that are connected to each other.
[0074] The first protrusion 521 is positioned within the corresponding vertical slot 21. The connecting portion 522 is provided with a second through-hole. The bottom of the connecting rod 51 is provided with a third through-hole. The second and third through-holes are rotatably connected by a rotating pin. The opening and closing angles of the charging port cover outer panel 1 can be adjusted by varying the vertical length of each vertical slot 21.
[0075] Therefore, by setting a second through hole in the connecting portion 522 and a third through hole at the bottom of the corresponding connecting rod 51, the second through hole and the third through hole are rotatably connected by a rotating pin, thereby realizing the rotational connection between the connecting rod 51 and the slider 52.
[0076] Of course, the rotational connection mode of the connecting rod 51 and the slider 52 can also be the rotational connection mode of the connecting rod and the slider in any connecting rod and slider mechanism in the prior art, and the embodiment of the present utility model does not impose any limitation on this.
[0077] Continue to see Figure 3 The second protrusion 523 is provided with a card slot, and a buckle 61 is provided at a corresponding position of the slider driving ring 6, and the card slot is engaged with the corresponding buckle 61.
[0078] Therefore, by providing a slot on the second protrusion 523 and a buckle 61 at a corresponding position of the slider drive ring 6, the slider drive ring 6 is fixedly connected to each group of sliders 52 by engaging the slot with the corresponding buckle 61.
[0079] The working principle of the second charging port cover is:
[0080] When charging is required, the vehicle's power supply inputs a positive current to each first electromagnetic member to generate a positive magnetic field. Under the action of the positive magnetic field, each first magnetic member drives the slider drive ring 6 to move upward, and the slider drive ring 6 drives each slider 52 to move upward along each vertical slide groove 21. Each slider 52 drives each connecting rod 51 to move upward, and each connecting rod 51 pulls the outer side of each charging port cover outer panel 1 inward, and drives each charging port cover outer panel 1 to rotate outward around the upper end of the annular rotating shell 2 through each second hinge device. Finally, each charging port cover outer panel 1 opens outward to expose the charging port 4. Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 A top view of a spliced rotating charging port cover in an open state provided by an embodiment of the utility model;
[0081] When charging is finished, the vehicle's power supply inputs reverse current to each first electromagnetic member to generate a reverse magnetic field. Under the action of the reverse magnetic field, each first magnetic member drives the slider drive ring 6 to move downward, and the slider drive ring 6 drives each slider 52 to move downward along each vertical slide groove 21. Each slider 52 drives each connecting rod 51 to move downward, and each connecting rod 51 pulls the outer side of each charging port cover outer panel 1 to extend outward, and drives each charging port cover outer panel 1 to rotate inward around the upper end of the annular rotating shell 2 through each second hinge device. Finally, each charging port cover outer panel 1 is closed inward. Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 A top view of a spliced rotating charging port cover in a closed state provided by an embodiment of the utility model.
[0082] The opening speed or closing speed of each charging port cover outer panel 1 can be controlled by changing the magnitude of the current.
[0083] Therefore, by arranging a first magnetic component on the lower surface of the slider drive ring 6, arranging a first electromagnetic component on the upper surface of the lower cylinder 32, and arranging a slider drive ring sleeve 6 to be connected to the annular rotating shell 2 and each charging port cover outer panel 1 respectively through a connecting rod slider mechanism 5, a positive magnetic field can be generated by inputting a positive current into each first electromagnetic component during charging. Under the action of the positive magnetic field, each magnetic component drives the slider drive ring 6 to move upward, and the slider drive ring 6 drives each slider 52 to move upward along each vertical slide groove 21. Each slider 52 drives each connecting rod 51 to move upward, and each connecting rod 51 pulls the outer side of each charging port cover outer panel 1 inward, and drives each charging port cover outer panel 1 to rotate outward around the upper end of the annular rotating shell 2 through each second hinge device. Finally, each charging port cover outer panel 1 opens outward to expose the charging port 4, and at the end of charging, each charging port cover outer panel 1 can be closed inward by inputting a reverse current into each first electromagnetic component.
[0084] In summary, the utility model provides a spliced rotating charging port cover comprising at least two charging port cover outer panels 1, an electromagnetic device, a charging port cover opening device, an annular rotating shell 2 and a charging port cover base 3. Among them, each charging port cover outer panel 1 is spliced into a circular plate when closed. At least two charging port cover outer panels 1 are mounted on the annular rotating shell 2 through the charging port cover opening device, and at least two charging port cover outer panels 1 are located above the annular rotating shell 2. The lower end of the annular rotating shell 2 is connected to the charging port cover base 3, and the charging port cover base 3 is fixedly mounted on the vehicle body. The charging port of the vehicle is arranged in a receiving cavity formed between the charging port cover outer panels, the annular rotating shell 2 and the charging port cover base 3. The electromagnetic device comprises a first electromagnetic component and a first magnetic component. When the first electromagnetic component generates a magnetic field acting on the first magnetic component, the charging port cover outer panels can be driven to open by the charging port cover opening device. Therefore, in the present invention, an electromagnetic device and a charging port cover opening device are provided so that when the first electromagnetic component in the electromagnetic device generates a magnetic field acting on the first magnetic component, the charging port cover opening device can drive the outer panels of each charging port cover to open. It can be seen that in the present invention, the opening and closing of each charging port cover outer panel 1 is achieved through an integrated electromagnetic drive. Compared with a motor, there are fewer components, which reduces the space occupancy of the entire vehicle, has a high degree of integration, and reduces the probability of failure.
[0085] In addition, the spliced charging port cover is more novel in appearance than the integrated charging port cover, giving users a better experience.

Figure 3 and Figure 5The embodiment of the present invention provides a spliced rotating charging port cover further comprising at least two second electromagnetic components 7, at least two second magnetic components 8, and a bearing. For example, the number of second electromagnetic components 7 and second magnetic components 8 is six. The second electromagnetic component 7 is a rotating coil assembly, and the second magnetic component 8 is a magnet.
[0087] The bearing is fixedly mounted between the lower end of the inner wall of the annular rotating housing 2 and the outer wall of the upper cylindrical body 31. At least two second electromagnetic members 7 are centrally symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the upper cylindrical body 31. At least two second magnetic members 8 are centrally symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the annular rotating housing 2. The number of second magnetic members 8 is the same as the number of second electromagnetic members 7, and the polarity of adjacent second magnetic members 8 is opposite. At least two second electromagnetic members 7 are electrically connected to a power source. In other words, the same poles of adjacent second magnetic members 8 are opposite each other, with south poles facing south poles and north poles facing north poles.
[0088] The second electromagnetic component 7 may be fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the upper cylinder 31 by gluing or welding, or by any other fixing method in the prior art, and the embodiment of the present invention does not impose any limitation on this.
[0089] The working principles of the second electromagnetic component 7, the second magnetic component 8 and the bearing are as follows:
[0090] When charging is required, the vehicle's power supply inputs a positive current to each second electromagnetic member 7, thereby generating a positive magnetic field. Under the action of the positive magnetic field, each second magnetic member 8 generates a positive torque, driving the annular rotating housing 2 to rotate forward relative to the outer wall of the upper cylinder 31 through the bearing. The annular rotating housing 2 drives each charging port cover outer plate 1 to rotate forward;
[0091] When charging is completed, the vehicle's power supply inputs reverse current to each second electromagnetic component 7 to generate a reverse magnetic field. Each second magnetic component 8 generates a reverse torque under the action of the reverse magnetic field, driving the annular rotating shell 2 to rotate in the reverse direction relative to the outer wall of the upper cylinder 31 through the bearing, and the annular rotating shell 2 drives each charging port cover outer panel 1 to rotate in the reverse direction.
[0092] The rotation speed can be controlled by changing the current. For example, when the vehicle starts charging, each charging port cover outer panel 1 rotates slowly in the forward direction, and gradually increases the rotation speed as the charge amount increases. When fully charged, the rotation stops or rotates slowly in the reverse direction.
[0093] Thus, by disposing a second electromagnetic element 7 on the inner wall of the upper cylinder 31 and a second magnetic element 8 on the inner wall of the annular rotating housing 2, and by fixing a bearing between the lower end of the inner wall of the annular rotating housing 2 and the outer wall of the upper cylinder 31, a positive magnetic field can be generated by inputting a positive current into each second electromagnetic element 7 during charging. Each second magnetic element 8 generates a positive torque under the action of the positive magnetic field, driving the annular rotating housing 2 to rotate forward relative to the outer wall of the upper cylinder 31 via the bearing, and the annular rotating housing 2 drives each charging port cover outer panel 1 to rotate forward. At the end of charging, each charging port cover outer panel 1 can be rotated in the reverse direction by inputting a reverse current into each second electromagnetic element 7. This allows the charging status to be determined simply by the rotation direction of each charging port cover outer panel 1, improving convenience and also serving as a reminder or warning to the user.
[0094] In one implementation, a spliced rotating charging port cover provided by an embodiment of the present invention also includes at least two indicator lights, each indicator light is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of any one of the outer panels 1 of the charging port cover, and each indicator light is electrically connected to a power source.
[0095] That is to say, the upper surface of a charging port cover outer panel 1 may have no indicator light, or may have one or more indicator lights.
[0096] For example, the number of the indicator lights is the same as the number of the charging port cover outer panels 1. An indicator light is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of each charging port cover outer panel.
[0097] Among them, the way in which each indicator light is fixedly installed on the upper surface of each charging port cover outer panel 1 can be by pasting or by fixing with threaded screws, or by any fixed installation method in the prior art. The embodiment of the utility model does not impose any limitation on this.
[0098] During charging, the vehicle's power supply can power on the indicator lights so that they light up at the same time. When charging is finished, the vehicle's power supply can power off the indicator lights so that they go out at the same time.
[0099] Thus, by providing indicator lights and arranging each indicator light to be fixedly mounted on the upper surface of any one of the charging port cover outer panels 1, it is possible to simultaneously illuminate the indicator lights by energizing the indicator lights during charging, and to simultaneously extinguish the indicator lights by deenergizing the indicator lights when charging is complete. This allows the charging status to be determined simply by the on and off of the indicator lights, thereby improving convenience and enhancing viewing experience.
[0100] The indicator lights can also be controlled to achieve the viewing or entertainment effects of flowing lights or breathing lights, or the status of each indicator light can be associated with the function of the vehicle, wherein the status of the indicator light can at least include the on and off status, color status, flowing light status or breathing light status; the function of the vehicle can at least include the vehicle's driving speed and the vehicle's remaining power.
[0101] Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the structure of a vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present utility model is shown in FIG. Figure 7 A vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes a vehicle body 20 and a spliced rotating charging port cover 30. The spliced rotating charging port cover 30 is fixedly installed on the vehicle body 20. The spliced rotating charging port cover 30 is the spliced rotating charging port cover provided by any of the above embodiments.
[0102] Thus, an embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle comprising a vehicle body 20 and a spliced rotating charging port cover 30. The spliced rotating charging port cover 30 comprises at least two charging port cover outer panels 1, an electromagnetic device, a charging port cover opening device, an annular rotating housing 2, a bearing, and a charging port cover base 3. When closed, the charging port cover outer panels 1 are spliced together to form a circular plate. At least two charging port cover outer panels 1 are mounted to the annular rotating housing 2 via the charging port cover opening device, and at least two charging port cover outer panels 1 are positioned above the annular rotating housing 2. The lower end of the annular rotating housing 2 is connected to the charging port cover base 3, which is fixedly mounted to the vehicle body. The vehicle's charging port is located within a receiving cavity formed between the charging port cover outer panels, the annular rotating housing 2, and the charging port cover base 3. The electromagnetic device comprises a first electromagnetic member and a first magnetic member. When the first electromagnetic member generates a magnetic field acting on the first magnetic member, the charging port cover opening device can drive the charging port cover outer panels to open. Therefore, in the present invention, an electromagnetic device and a charging port cover opening device are provided so that when the first electromagnetic component in the electromagnetic device generates a magnetic field acting on the first magnetic component, the charging port cover opening device can drive the outer panels of each charging port cover to open. It can be seen that in the present invention, the opening and closing of each charging port cover outer panel 1 is achieved through an integrated electromagnetic drive. Compared with a motor, there are fewer components, which reduces the space occupancy of the entire vehicle, has a high degree of integration, and reduces the probability of failure.
