Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive electrical connections, and more specifically, to a rotatable drain pipe for a charging socket. Background Technology

[0002] With the promotion of new energy vehicles, the application of charging sockets for these vehicles is becoming increasingly widespread, and these sockets need to adapt to different application scenarios. In scenarios where water enters the socket, it needs to drain the liquid. Currently, the drainage method for new energy vehicle charging sockets typically involves installing a drain nozzle at the drain hole on the socket housing, with the drain pipe connected to the nozzle, and the drainage direction determined by the direction the nozzle faces. However, existing drain nozzles are fixed and cannot be changed. If the drainage direction needs to be changed, a drain nozzle facing a different direction must be replaced. This means the drainage pipe's drainage direction cannot be adjusted at any time, making the drainage method inflexible. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a rotatable drain pipe for a charging socket, which is expected to solve the problem that the direction of the drain pipe cannot be adjusted at any time in the prior art.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A rotatable drain pipe for a charging socket includes a socket flange drain column, a drain nozzle, and a seal.

[0006] The socket flange drain column is installed on the socket housing;

[0007] The drain nozzle is L-shaped, one end of which can be rotatably mounted on the socket flange drain column, and the other end of which is provided with a water pipe installation head;

[0008] The sealing element is disposed between the drain column and the drain nozzle of the socket flange.

[0009] Because the drain nozzle is L-shaped, and one end of the drain nozzle can be rotatably mounted on the socket flange drain column, the drain outlet direction can be changed when the drain nozzle rotates relative to the socket flange drain column. This solution has a simple structure, and the direction adjustment operation is also relatively simple.

[0010] A further technical solution is that the sealing element is a sealing ring;

[0011] The socket flange drain column and / or drain nozzle are provided with a sealing ring mounting groove.

[0012] The sealing ring is fitted into the sealing ring mounting groove, which firstly prevents the sealing ring from moving, and secondly achieves a better sealing effect.

[0013] Further, the socket rotatable drain pipe further comprises a rotating buckle;

[0014] The rotating buckle is rotatably installed on the socket flange drain column.

[0015] The rotating buckle and the drain nozzle are provided with matched fixing structures.

[0016] During installation of the drain nozzle, the drain nozzle is rotatably installed on the socket flange drain column, and meanwhile, the drain nozzle is prevented from being separated from the socket flange drain column.

[0017] Further, the fixing structure is a protruding part and a clamping groove.

[0018] The rotating buckle is provided with two protruding parts.

[0019] The drain nozzle is provided with a clamping groove at a position corresponding to the protruding part of the rotating buckle at one end of the drain nozzle and the socket flange drain column.

[0020] Further, the rotating buckle is made of an elastic material.

[0021] The rotating buckle is provided with an installation opening.

[0022] The socket flange drain column is provided with a rotating buckle installation groove.

[0023] The rotating buckle can be directly installed in the rotating buckle installation groove through the installation opening of the rotating buckle, so that installation and fixation are facilitated.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: the utility model discloses an L-shaped drain nozzle, and one end of the drain nozzle is rotatably installed on a socket flange drain column. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
