Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cobalt plate processing, and particularly relates to a protective structure for a charging port of an electric vehicle. Background Art

[0002] The charging port of an electric tricycle is an important component that connects the charger and the battery pack.

[0003] When the existing electric tricycle is charging, the electric door lock circuit of the electric tricycle controller is still in the on state. If the user accidentally starts the three-wheeled electric tricycle, it may cause damage to the electric tricycle accessories and even threaten the user's personal safety.

[0004] Authorization announcement number CN206201995U discloses a charging port assembly and an electric tricycle. The charging port assembly includes a charging port body and a power disconnect switch. The charging port body is provided with charging port contacts. The power disconnect switch includes a power disconnect switch contact and a control assembly. The power disconnect switch contact is movably disposed within the charging port body and is activated when the charging port contact is connected to a charging plug. The control assembly is connected to the power disconnect switch contact and is used to control the on / off of the electric door lock circuit of the electric tricycle controller based on the movement of the power disconnect switch contact. When charging the electric tricycle, the charging port assembly can automatically disconnect the controller's power door lock circuit, providing a high level of safety.

[0005] Although the above patent can disconnect the controller electric door lock circuit during charging, solving the problem of electric vehicle charging accidentally starting, the following problems still exist:

[0006] (1) When using electric vehicles daily, they are usually charged at night, so it is necessary to turn on the lights to facilitate connecting the charging cable to the charging port of the electric vehicle.

[0007] (2) In order to prevent dust and rain, the existing charging interface has a cover hinged at the interface position. The cover is opened for charging. Although the cover can block some dust and rain, the dust and water proof effect is not good enough. Utility Model Content

[0037] The following will be combined with the 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 making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] Example 1:

[0039] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an electric vehicle charging port protection structure, comprising a charging seat 1, a charging opening 2 arranged on the charging seat 1, a cover plate 3 arranged on the charging seat 1 and hinged to the charging seat 1, and a sealing assembly covering the charging opening 2. The sealing assembly seals the charging opening when the cover plate 3 is closed to prevent rainwater and dust from entering.

[0040] A socket 4 is arranged in the charging opening 2, and a luminous ring 13 is arranged on the outer edge of the charging opening 2 on the charging base 1 to improve recognition.

[0041] Among them, the sealing assembly includes a sealing plate 6 that is slidably arranged in the charging base 1 and covers the socket 4, and a accommodating compartment 7 arranged on the charging base 1 for accommodating the sealing plate 6. The sealing plate 6 is a double-layer plate, the layer close to the outside is a rubber plate, and the layer close to the inside is a flame retardant plate. The outer layer of the sealing plate 6 is close to the cover plate 3, and the two are in fit together, thereby playing a dust-proof and waterproof role.

[0042] When charging, first open the cover 3 and connect the charging plug to the socket 4 to start charging.

[0043] Example 2:

[0044] On the basis of Example 1, in order to make the socket 4 waterproof and dustproof while taking into account the convenience of use, a linkage component connected to the cover 3 is arranged on the sealing component. The sealing component is released when the cover 3 is opened, and the sealing component is controlled to achieve a sealing effect when the cover 3 is closed.

[0045] Specifically, the linkage assembly includes a rotating shaft 8 fixedly connected to the cover plate 3, gears 10 symmetrically arranged at both ends of the rotating shaft 8, and a tooth plate 11 meshing with the gear 10. The tooth plate 11 is fixedly connected to the sealing plate 6. Both ends of the rotating shaft 8 are hinged to the charging base 1. The gear 10 and the rotating shaft 8 are coaxially fixedly connected. The upper end of the charging base 1 is also provided with a clearance bin 12 for accommodating the tooth plate 11. When the sealing plate 6 covers the socket 4, the clearance bin 12 stores the tooth plate 10.

[0046] When the cover 3 is opened, the cover 3 flips outward, driving the rotating shaft 8 to rotate counterclockwise, and at the same time driving the gear 10 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby driving the gear plate 11 to move downward, and then driving the sealing plate 6 to move downward, moving the sealing plate 6 that originally covered the socket 4 downward and storing it in the accommodating compartment 7, thereby exposing the socket 4 for charging;

[0047] Similarly, when the cover 3 is closed, the cover 3 drives the rotating shaft 8 to rotate clockwise, and at the same time drives the gear 10 to rotate clockwise, thereby driving the tooth plate 11 to move upward, and then drives the sealing plate 6 to move upward, and moves the sealing plate 6 originally stored in the accommodating chamber 7 upward, thereby covering the socket 4 to play a sealing role.

[0048] Example 3:

[0049] On the basis of Example 2, in order to facilitate charging at night, a lighting lamp 5 is further arranged on one side of the socket 4, and a switch 9 for controlling the circuit of the lighting lamp 5 is also arranged in the accommodating compartment 7. The switch 9 is movably connected to the sealing plate 6. When the cover 3 is opened, the switch 9 is triggered to control the lighting lamp 5 to turn on and provide lighting. When the cover 3 is closed, the switch 9 is triggered to turn off the lighting lamp 5. The structure of the switch 9 is an existing mature technology and will not be introduced in detail here.

[0050] Obviously, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if such modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is intended to include such modifications and variations.
