Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of new energy vehicle technology, specifically to a water-cooled charging system for electric vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] As an energy storage device, the power battery is the most critical core component of a pure electric vehicle. Its performance and lifespan directly determine the performance of the electric vehicle. To ensure the driving range, while increasing the capacity of individual battery cells, these cells need to be tightly arranged into battery packs through series and parallel connections. When an electric vehicle operates under different driving conditions, the power battery will charge and discharge at different rates, generating a large amount of heat. If the power battery is then fast-charged, the large amount of heat generated during fast charging will affect the safety of the power battery. The accumulation of heat within a power battery, if not dissipated promptly, will lead to uneven heat buildup over time and due to spatial structural factors. This results in uneven battery temperature, performance differences between cells, decreased battery performance, shortened lifespan, and in severe cases, even spontaneous combustion. A search reveals Chinese patent CN113320441A, which discloses a coolant transfer gun for charging piles. The gun includes a gun housing and a gun-end connector mounted on the housing. The gun-end connector connects to the car charging pile via two independent water pipes. A vehicle-end connector is installed on the vehicle. The connection between the gun-end connector and the vehicle-end connector allows coolant to circulate between the car charging pile and the car battery pack. The connector outer sleeve is equipped with an unlocking pull ring for locking the vehicle end connector. The unlocking pull ring is movable under force and unlocks from the vehicle end connector. The inner wall of the unlocking pull ring has a stepped actuating surface. A locking ball is positioned between the actuating surface and the outer wall of the gun end connector. The gun end connector has a slot, through which the locking ball can extend. The outer circumferential surface of the vehicle end connector has a retaining groove corresponding to the slot. The actuating surface can push the locking element out of the slot and into the retaining groove. A locking spring is provided between the unlocking pull ring and the gun end connector. The locking spring is in a compressed state, and the force applied by the locking spring causes the unlocking pull ring to push the locking ball out of the slot. The device also includes a microswitch for controlling the coolant, which is installed inside the gun end connector.

[0003] The shortcomings of the aforementioned patents are as follows: First, the quick-connect fittings in the aforementioned patents use a microswitch to control the flow of coolant. If the microswitch malfunctions or there is a signal delay, it cannot control the coolant in time, resulting in insufficient coolant supply. Alternatively, if the fitting is not connected, coolant may overflow from the quick-connect fitting, causing leakage. Second, the quick-connect fittings in the aforementioned patents have a complex structure and many components. Third, the locking ball in the aforementioned patents is controlled by a locking spring. The locking spring is prone to failure during long-term use, causing the locking ball to fail to lock, which in turn leads to the failure of the fitting between the vehicle end fitting and the quick-connect fitting. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies and provide a water-cooled charging system for electric vehicles that features an ingenious structure, good sealing, timely cooling, no water leakage, fewer components, low operating costs, and stable and reliable connection.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A water-cooled charging system for electric vehicles includes a charging docking part and an electric vehicle docking part, which are connected to achieve charging.

One end of the first plug extends out of the cooling drive plug to form a compression drive end, and the other end of the first plug is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cooling drive plug. One end of the first plug is sealed to the cooling drive plug so as to facilitate the sealing between the first plug and the cooling drive plug by the first spring.

[0008] In this invention, the first spring has a first stop block at one end and a first guide block at the other end. The first stop block is fixedly connected to the first plug. The first guide block has a guide hole in the axial direction and water holes spaced apart on the first guide block.

The first plug passes through the guide hole and is slidably connected to the first guide block. One end of the first spring abuts against the first stop block and the other end abuts against the first guide block, so as to facilitate the first spring being limited by the first stop block and the first guide block.

[0009] The tram cooling component of this utility model includes a second plug and a second spring. A tram cooling socket is provided inside the tram docking housing.

A second spring is fitted onto the second plug. One end of the second plug protrudes from the plug through hole and is placed inside the tram cooling slot to form a docking end. The second plug is sealed to the plug through hole. The other end of the second plug is slidably connected to the inner wall of the second water flow channel, so that after the cooling drive plug is inserted into the tram cooling docking slot, the first plug and the second plug are pressed together, thus connecting the first water flow channel and the second water flow channel.

The charging docking housing is inserted into the locking slot, and the elastic locking block squeezes the elastic pressure block, hooking the limiting end of the tram docking housing to lock the charging docking housing and the tram docking housing together. This facilitates unlocking by moving the locking sleeve towards the elastic pressure block, which in turn squeezes the elastic pressure block, which in turn squeezes the elastic locking block. The elastic locking block moves into the unlocking channel, separating the elastic locking block from the limiting end of the tram docking housing, thereby pulling the charging docking housing out of the locking slot of the tram docking housing.

[0013] The trolley docking housing of this utility model has a positioning plate on its outer wall, which is fixedly connected to the trolley docking housing.

By pressing the button, the button pushes the unlocking rod to move, and the unlocking rod drives the locking sleeve to move, thereby unlocking.

[0014] The inner diameter of the locking sleeve of this utility model gradually increases from the limiting end of the trolley docking housing towards the elastic pressure block, so as to facilitate the movement of the locking sleeve towards the elastic pressure block and to fit onto the elastic pressure block.

[0015] The present invention describes a charging docking part and an electric vehicle docking part, both equipped with a docking charging mechanism.

[0016] The charging docking housing of this invention has a partition plate inside, and the partition plate is fixedly connected to the charging docking housing.

[0017] The partition plate divides the interior of the charging docking housing into a charging area and a cooling area. The docking plug is located in the charging area, and the cooling drive plug is located in the cooling area. The trolley docking housing is provided with a partition plate slot, which divides the interior of the trolley docking housing into a charging docking area and a cooling docking area.

The partition plate and the partition plate slot are inserted into each other. The charging area and the charging docking area cooperate to form a charging compartment, and the cooling area and the cooling docking area cooperate to form a cooling compartment. This facilitates the separation of the docking charging mechanism and the cooling docking mechanism through the partition plate and the partition plate slot. The two compartments are separated from each other and do not affect each other.

[0020] The present invention provides temperature-sensitive burst heads at intervals inside the cooling water pipe and the heat dissipation baffle, so that when the battery temperature rises abnormally, the temperature-sensitive burst heads will explode, continuously cooling the battery and preventing the battery from spontaneously combusting.

[0021] The water pipe connecting the water outlet cooling drive plug to the water tank in this invention is equipped with a temperature sensor to monitor the temperature at the battery outlet in real time, so that charging can be stopped when a certain temperature value is exceeded.

The inlet end of the heat dissipation baffle 48 is connected to the inlet electric vehicle cooling docking slot 44 via a water pipe, and the outlet end of the heat dissipation baffle 48 is connected to the outlet electric vehicle cooling docking slot 45 via a water pipe, facilitating the delivery of cooling water to the battery via the water pump.

[0055] The heat dissipation water baffle 48 of this utility model is provided with temperature-sensitive burst heads 47 at intervals inside, so that when the battery temperature rises abnormally, the temperature-sensitive burst heads will explode, continuously cooling the battery and preventing the battery from spontaneously combusting.

[0056] The water outlet cooling drive plug 43 of this utility model is equipped with a temperature sensor 49 on the water pipe connecting it to the water tank, so as to monitor the temperature from the battery outlet in real time and stop charging when the temperature exceeds a certain value.

[0057] This utility model charging pile can be equipped with a control system, such as a PLC control system. The power supply system 39 and temperature sensor 49 are all connected to the control system, allowing operators to monitor the charging status in real time. The charging docking housing 3 is designed for handheld use, and the positioning plate 31 can serve as a baffle for the charging port of the electric vehicle. The positioning plate 31 is fixedly connected to the frame of the electric vehicle.

[0058] As attached Figure 14 In this utility model, the shapes of the charging area and cooling area inside the charging docking housing 3 can be set according to different needs and the shape of the trolley docking housing 4 of different vehicles. Figure 14 Figures (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) show schematic diagrams of the interior of the charging docking housing 3 with several different configurations. The specific shape can be set according to requirements.

[0059] When using, as shown in the attached document Figure 1-13The electric vehicle to be charged is moved to the side of the charging pile 35. In the initial state, the locking sleeve 26 is pulled by the locking spring 28. The locking sleeve 26 is positioned close to the positioning plate 31. The operator removes the charging docking housing 3 and inserts it into the locking slot 29 of the electric vehicle docking housing 4. The elastic locking block 25 on the charging docking housing 3 presses against the elastic pressure block 27 on the electric vehicle docking housing 4, lifting it up, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 The left end of the elastic locking block 25 abuts against the elastic pressure block 27, and the right end hooks onto the limiting end of the tram docking housing 4. The locking sleeve 26, under the tension of the locking spring 28, is sleeved on the limiting end of the tram docking housing 4 to lock and fix the charging docking housing 3 and the tram docking housing 4.

[0060] Simultaneously, the docking plug 36 connects to the docking socket 38 for charging, and the water inlet cooling drive plug 42 connects to the water inlet trolley cooling docking slot 44. This allows cold water from the water tank to flow through the circulating water pump 33 and into the water inlet trolley cooling docking slot 44 via the water inlet cooling drive plug 42. The water inlet trolley cooling docking slot 44 then connects to the inlet of the cooling water pipe 46 or the radiator baffle 48 on the trolley battery 37 via a water pipe. The cooling water pipe 46 or the radiator baffle 48 covers the trolley battery 37 to cool it down. Then, the outlet of the cooling water pipe 46 or the radiator baffle 48 on the trolley battery 37 connects to the outlet trolley cooling docking slot 45 via a water pipe. The outlet trolley cooling docking slot 45 connects to the outlet trolley cooling docking slot 45. The drive plug 43 is connected to the water tank via a water pipe. The water used for heat exchange to cool the electric vehicle battery 37 is drained into the water tank, thus cooling the electric vehicle battery while charging it. After the electric vehicle battery 37 is fully charged, the operator manually presses the button on the unlocking lever 32, which moves to the left. The unlocking lever 32 moves the locking sleeve 26 to the left, causing the locking sleeve 26 to move towards the elastic pressure block 27. The locking sleeve 26 presses the elastic pressure block 27, which in turn presses the elastic locking block 25. The elastic locking block 25 moves into the unlocking channel 30, separating the elastic locking block 25 from the limiting end of the electric vehicle docking housing 4. At this point, the charging docking housing 3 can be pulled out to the right.

[0061] This utility model has a simple structure and is safe to use. When not connected, the first plug 10 inside the charging docking housing 3 is sealed to the cooling drive plug 13 via the first spring 11, and the second plug 18 inside the trolley docking housing 4 is sealed to the second water flow channel 8 via the second spring 19. This ensures that when the charging docking housing 3 and the trolley docking housing 4 are not connected, the first plug 10 and the second plug 18 are sealed, preventing water leakage. When the charging docking housing 3 and the trolley docking housing 4 are connected, the first plug 10 and the second plug 18 abut and press against each other, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 Appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 9The first plug 10 presses against the first spring 11, moving to the right and separating from the cooling drive plug 13. The second plug 18 presses against the second spring 19, moving to the left. The second plug 18 exits the plug hole and is placed in the second water flow channel 8, thus connecting the first water flow channel 6 and the second water flow channel 8, achieving cold water cooling of the electric vehicle battery 7. When the charging docking housing 3 separates from the electric vehicle docking housing 4, the first plug 10 and the second plug 18 return to their original positions under the rebound force of the first spring 11 and the second spring 19, achieving their respective seals. Compared with the prior art, this utility model has good sealing performance, stable structure, and no water leakage. The cooling docking mechanism 5 in this utility model has a simple structure, few parts, low operating cost, and quick and convenient docking. The docking locking mechanism 24 in this utility model has an ingenious structure, locking is safe and fast, and unlocking is convenient, ensuring stable and reliable docking between the charging docking housing 3 and the electric vehicle docking housing 4.

[0062] This utility model, due to the above-mentioned structure, has the advantages of ingenious structure, good sealing, timely cooling, no water leakage, fewer parts, low cost of use, and stable and reliable connection.
