Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of structural design, and in particular relates to a power distribution unit structure of a charging pile. Background Art
[0002] The demand for car charging stations has exploded with the rapid development of new energy vehicles, placing increasingly stringent requirements on charging stations and making power distribution increasingly important. Traditional charging station power distribution units often fail to adequately consider both electrical topology and layout. This can lead to complex wiring connections and long wiring distances between components, increasing line resistance and inductance, resulting in increased energy loss during power transmission and reduced charging efficiency. Lack of proper layout planning prevents full utilization of the limited space within the system. Some components may occupy unnecessary space, limiting the ability to accommodate more functions or increase power flexibility within a limited space. For example, large gaps may be left unused, or the placement of certain components may be inconvenient for subsequent maintenance and upgrades, hindering the compactness of the power distribution unit. In addition to increasing line losses, an inappropriate layout can also compromise heat dissipation. If components are too densely packed or ventilation is poorly designed, heat cannot be dissipated promptly, leading to elevated operating temperatures. High temperatures can affect the performance of electronic components, increase resistance, further reducing charging efficiency, and potentially shorten component lifespans and increasing maintenance costs.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a charging pile power distribution unit structure. Utility Model Content

In addition to the function of supporting and fixing the cables, the second cable support fixture can also prevent the cabinet protection plate from sinking, thereby enhancing the structural stability of the cabinet; a sealing plate support fixture is provided below the contactor mounting piece, and the sealing plate support fixture is connected to the external sealing plate of the entire cabinet to protect the entire power distribution unit; a bottom crossbeam is provided at the bottom of the contactor mounting piece, and the bottom crossbeam is used to support the contactor mounting piece.
[0007] Furthermore, mounting member reinforcements are fixed on both sides of the bottom of the contactor mounting member, and the mounting member reinforcements are also connected to the bottom crossbeam.
[0008] Furthermore, connecting grooves are provided on both sides of the bottom cross beam, and the mounting member reinforcement is fixed in the connecting grooves to form a triangular fixing structure for strengthening support for the contactor mounting member.
[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of insulating column mounting holes are evenly arranged on the bottom crossbeam for supporting the conductor.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0017] The utility model provides a power distribution unit structure for a charging pile. A nut is secured to a contactor mounting member by pressure riveting, and a nut-screw combination ensures the stable position of the contactor. The conductor is compressed and connected by the nut through the screw on the contactor and the hole on the copper busbar, forming a stable ring-shaped structure. This ring-shaped electrical connection method not only ensures stable current transmission but also enables relatively flexible power distribution. The power distribution unit structure uses a common structure for both positive and negative poles, which standardizes the processing of parts and reduces the number of structural components. This means that during the manufacturing process, there is no need to prepare separate parts for the positive and negative poles, greatly simplifying the production process and reducing production costs. Furthermore, the reduced number of parts facilitates assembly, reduces assembly errors that may result from a large number of parts, and improves assembly efficiency and quality. Furthermore, the combined action of a first cable support fixture and a second cable support fixture ensures the orderly arrangement of the cables in the charging pile power distribution unit, preventing shaking and displacement of the cables due to their own weight, external forces, and other factors, thereby reducing friction and interference between the cables and between the cables and other components.
[0018] Specifically, the open layout design of the power distribution unit provides good conditions for heat dissipation, enabling the contactor to operate in a suitable temperature environment, further improving the reliability and stability of the entire power distribution unit.
[0019] Specifically, the power distribution unit's modular design allows for pre-fabrication during assembly. During assembly, the power distribution unit module can be assembled simultaneously with the cabinet's electrical installation. This feature significantly reduces assembly time and shortens the entire charging pile assembly cycle. Furthermore, by reducing the manpower required for assembly, labor costs are effectively saved.
