Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of new energy, in particular to a charging gun tail connecting structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of the continuous popularization of new energy vehicles, with the continuous improvement of electric vehicle technology, the support of national policy, the gradual strengthening and improvement of charging infrastructure construction, the market demand for charging guns is increasing, and the technical development of charging guns is gradually mature. However, with the continuous progress of the technology of charging guns, some problems have also emerged. The current research focus of the technical development of charging guns is mostly on the gun part, and the development of the tail copper bar is relatively weak. The assembly problems in the process and the sealing stability problems in the product design gradually appear, and these problems need to be optimized.

[0003] The current GB oil-cooled gun and Chaoji oil-cooled gun and other products use cooling liquid circulation in the cooling pipeline and external cooling source to reduce the temperature of the cooling liquid. The insulating cooling liquid is in direct contact with the heating copper wire, and most of the heat is carried away. However, the installation of the cooling pipeline and the tail copper bar assembly is a technical difficulty for oil-cooled charging guns. While ensuring the normal circulation and heat dissipation of the cooling liquid, the sealing design and process performance of the connection part must be guaranteed. The sealing performance must be able to withstand the high temperature and high pressure of the cooling liquid in the water pipe. In the production process of the current high-power oil-cooled charging gun, after the cable and the core are crimped, the installation process of the liquid cooling pipe is difficult. The liquid cooling pipe needs to be fully exposed when the copper bar is crimped. In fact, a certain length of the crimped cable is exposed. After the cable is crimped, the liquid cooling pipe is stretched and deformed to cover the entire crimped part. This design not only affects the strength of the liquid cooling pipe, but also changes the design size of the sealing area of the liquid cooling pipe, affecting the overall sealing performance of the product. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a charging gun tail connecting structure to solve the defects of the existing charging gun tail sealing area, which reduces the sealing performance and the connection strength.

The first interface piece and the second interface piece are axially fixedly connected. The sealing slide moves under force to cover the connection part of the first interface piece and the second interface piece. The sealing slide is provided with a fixing assembly for positioning and fixing the sealing slide.

[0007] In a further aspect of the application, the first connector and the second connector are axially press-fit fixed.

[0009] In a further aspect of the application, the second connector is provided with a sealing member on a side close to the positioning member.

[0012] In a further aspect of the application, the first connector and the second connector are arranged in axial opposition.

[0013] In a second aspect, a charging gun comprises the charging gun tail connecting structure.

[0014] The application has the following beneficial effects:

[0028] The embodiment discloses a charging gun, which comprises a charging gun tail connecting structure in the above embodiment.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the tail copper bar connection structure of the high-power oil-cooled charging gun in the embodiment of the application avoids the deformation of the liquid cooling pipe through the structure of the sealing slide 4, improves the sealing performance of the product, and optimizes the production process of the product. The cooling idea of the high-power oil-cooled charging gun is to directly contact the cable with the insulating cooling liquid, and the heat on the copper wire 2 is taken away through the continuous circulation of the cooling liquid. Under the cooling of the cold source, the temperature of the cooling liquid is reduced to realize the continuous circulation cooling of the cooling liquid in the gun to take away most of the heat inside the high-power oil-cooled charging gun during work. This copper-in-water cooling design requires a liquid cooling pipe to cover the copper wire 2 in it, and the cooling liquid circulating in the liquid cooling pipe takes away the heat of the copper wire 2. In the past production process of the high-power oil-cooled charging gun, the installation and production of the tail copper bar need to reserve a crimping length for the copper wire 2 inside the liquid cooling pipe, and after the copper bar is crimped with the copper wire 2, the liquid cooling pipe is stretched to cover the crimping area. Such design is unreasonable. In order to improve this problem, the structure of the sealing slide 4 is used in the application to replace the stretching of the liquid cooling pipe with the stroke of the sealing slide 4.

[0030] Specific use:

[0031] In the production process of the tail copper bar of the high-power oil-cooled charging gun, the application first needs to reserve the crimping length of the copper wire 2 and the tail copper bar assembly. According to the required length, part of the copper wire 2 is exposed outside the liquid cooling pipe (the first connecting piece 1). After the length reservation is completed, the sealing slide 4 on the tail copper bar assembly (the second connecting piece 7) is moved to the rightmost side, the crimping position of the tail copper bar assembly is fully exposed, and then the copper wire 2 is crimped with the tail copper bar assembly. After crimping is completed, the sealing slide 4 is moved to the leftmost side. During the movement, the liquid cooling pipe is installed on the sealing installation area of the sealing slide 4. After the stroke of the sealing slide 4 is in place, the opening blocking ring at the tail of the sliding groove is installed to limit the sealing slide 4. Finally, the liquid cooling pipe is locked by the locking piece 3 at the sealing installation area of the sealing slide 4 to complete the entire installation process. The right side of the sealing slide 4 is installed on the tail copper bar assembly by two locking pieces 3 to achieve sealing, and the left side is directly connected with the liquid cooling pipe and locked by the locking piece 3 at the sealing area to achieve the sealing of the structure. When the product works, the cooling liquid directly contacts the copper wire 2 through the liquid cooling pipe to take away the surface temperature of the copper wire 2, then enters the sealing slide 4, and then enters the tail copper bar assembly. The cooling liquid cooled by the cold source is then circulated in the liquid cooling pipe. The above entire installation process is convenient and simple to operate, has good sealing performance, avoids the stretching and deformation of the liquid cooling pipe, and optimizes the structure of the product. The entire working cycle is scientific and reasonable, and can effectively control the temperature of the high-power oil-cooled gun.
