[0032] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, the market share of electric vehicles is constantly increasing, and users' requirements for charging efficiency are also generally rising. While high-power charging equipment can effectively improve charging efficiency, it also brings the safety hazard of excessive temperature rise at the charging terminals. Excessive temperature will reduce the lifespan of the charging equipment, and relying on natural heat dissipation is unlikely to effectively cool the heat-generating areas.

[0033] This utility model proposes a charging gun. Please refer to... Figures 1 to 7The charging gun includes a housing and a sealed cavity within the housing; a cable 1 is threaded through the sealed cavity, and the cable 1 contains multiple power lines 11, a ground line 13, a second air supply pipe 12b for conveying cooling medium, and multiple first air supply pipes 12a; each power line 11 is closely attached to at least one first air supply pipe 12a; the ground line 13 is closely attached to the second air supply pipe 12b; the cable 1 contains a filler 15 to seal the inside of the cable 1; a terminal assembly 2 is provided in the sealed cavity, the terminal assembly 2 is connected to the power lines 11, one end of the first air supply pipe 12a is close to the terminal assembly 2, and one end of the second air supply pipe 12b is connected to the sealed cavity.

[0034] In this embodiment, the cable 1 is provided with multiple cooling pipes 12, which communicate with the sealed cavity and are used for the input or output of the cooling medium. It is understood that at least one cooling pipe 12 is used for the input of the cooling medium, and at least one cooling pipe 12 is also used for the output of the cooling medium. Preferably, when the number of cooling pipes 12 used for input is greater than the number of cooling pipes 12 used for output, the diameter of the cooling pipes 12 used for output can be increased, that is, the cross-sectional area of ​​the cooling pipes 12 used for output should be larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the cooling pipes 12 used for input, to ensure that the cooling medium can flow smoothly when the charging gun is in use. The cooling pipes 12 include multiple first gas supply pipes 12a and at least one second gas supply pipe 12b. The cooling medium can be a gaseous fluid. Understandably, the first gas supply pipe can be used for the input of the cooling medium, and the second gas supply pipe can be used for the output of the cooling medium. In this case, the cooling medium can be input into the sealed cavity through the first gas supply pipe and then output from the sealed cavity through the second gas supply pipe. Of course, the second gas supply pipe can also be used for the input of the cooling medium, and the first gas supply pipe can be used for the output of the cooling medium. In this case, the cooling medium can be input into the sealed cavity through the second gas supply pipe and then output from the sealed cavity through the first gas supply pipe. No limitation is made here. A terminal assembly 2 is provided inside the sealed cavity. The cooling medium can flow inside the sealed cavity and exchange heat with the terminal assembly 2 inside the sealed cavity to cool the terminal assembly 2. Then, it is discharged from the charging gun through the cooling pipe 12 used for output. The cable 1 is provided with a ground wire 13 and multiple power wires 11. The power wires 11 are connected to the terminal assembly 2 inside the housing. Each power wire 11 is closely attached to at least one first gas supply pipe 12a, and the ground wire 13 is closely attached to the second gas supply pipe 12b. The end of the first gas supply pipe 12a located inside the sealed cavity can be as close as possible to the terminal assembly 2. Preferably, the first air supply pipe 12a is used for the input of the cooling medium, and the second air supply pipe 12b is used for the output of the cooling medium. The cooling medium is input into the sealed cavity near the terminal assembly 2 via the first air supply pipe 12a. The cooling medium cools the exterior of the terminal assembly 2, the connection between the terminal assembly 2 and the power line 11, and the connection between the terminal assembly 2 and the ground line 13. The cooling medium is then transported to the outside of the charging gun via the second air supply pipe 12b. The cable 1 also has a filler 15 made of polypropylene. The filler 15 fills the interior of the cable 1, giving the cable 1 an internal sealed structure, ensuring that the cooling medium can only be input to or output to the charging gun along the cooling pipe 12.

[0035] Further, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The housing includes a gun head and a gun body. The sealed cavity includes a first cavity in the gun head and a second cavity in the gun body. The first cavity and the second cavity are connected. The first gas supply pipe 12a is connected to the first cavity. The second gas supply pipe 12b is connected to the second cavity.

[0036] Specifically, the gun head is located at the front end of the gun body, and a gun head sealing ring is provided between the gun head and the gun body to ensure the sealing between the gun head and the gun body. The gun head includes a gun head housing 4, which has a mounting cavity. A gun head rear cover 3 is located in the mounting cavity. The gun head rear cover 3 has multiple mounting slots, in which the terminal assembly 2 is inserted to fix and prevent displacement of the terminal assembly 2 during use of the charging gun. The gun head has a first cavity, and the terminal assembly 2 is located in the first cavity. The gun body has a second cavity, in which the cable 1 passes. The first cavity and the second cavity are connected, allowing the flow of cooling medium. A first air supply pipe 12a is set close to the power line 11. The first air supply pipe 12a and the power line 11, both located in the sealed cavity, are inserted into the gun head rear cover 3 and extend into the first cavity, allowing the first air supply pipe 12a to flow into the first cavity. The second air supply pipe 12b communicates with the second cavity, and its end near the nozzle can be located in either the first cavity or the second cavity. Preferably, the end of the second air supply pipe 12b near the nozzle is located in the second cavity. In this embodiment, the first air supply pipe 12a is used to input the cooling medium, and the second air supply pipe 12b is used to output the cooling medium. When the cooling medium flows into the sealed cavity from the first air supply pipe 12a, it enters the first cavity near the terminal assembly 2, rapidly cooling the terminal assembly 2. At this time, the air pressure in the first cavity increases, and under the action of air pressure, the cooling medium is squeezed from the first cavity into the second cavity, and flows through the second air supply pipe 12b to the outside of the charging gun. This structural arrangement allows the cooling medium to be fully cooled before being discharged from the cooling pipe 12, improving the cooling effect of the charging gun.

[0037] In another embodiment, the end of the second gas supply pipe 12b near the nozzle is located within the first cavity. It can be understood that in this case, the ends of both the first gas supply pipe 12a and the second gas supply pipe 12b near the nozzle are located within the first cavity. The first gas supply pipe 12a can be used to input the cooling medium, and the second gas supply pipe 12b can be used to output the cooling medium, or vice versa.

[0038] Further, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The power line 11 and the first gas supply pipe 12a are covered with heat shrink tubing, and the power line 11 and the first gas supply pipe 12a are fastened together. The ground line 13 and the second gas supply pipe 12b are covered with heat shrink tubing, and the ground line 13 and the second gas supply pipe 12b are fastened together.

[0039] Specifically, during the use of the charging gun, if the cooling pipe 12 is not fixed, the end of the cooling pipe 12 near the gun head will swing, causing a positional shift and preventing effective heat dissipation of the terminal assembly 2. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a covering around the power line 11 and the first gas supply pipe 12a, and the ground line 13 and the second gas supply pipe 12b, so that the positions of the power line 11 and the first gas supply pipe 12a, and the ground line 13 and the second gas supply pipe 12b are relatively fixed, preventing the cooling pipe 12 from swinging during use. Preferably, the covering can be heat shrink tubing. The heat shrink tubing provides a guarantee for the fixed installation of the power line 11 and the first gas supply pipe 12a, and the ground line 13 and the second gas supply pipe 12b, ensuring that the cooling pipe 12 will not swing or shift during the use of the charging gun, ensuring that the cooling medium can be stably delivered and effectively cooling the terminal assembly 2.

[0040] Furthermore, the charging gun also includes an air supply device for supplying cooling medium into the sealed cavity. The end of the first air supply pipe 12a away from the housing is connected to the air supply device (not shown in the figure) to deliver the cooling medium from the air supply device into the sealed cavity.

[0041] Specifically, the air supply device provides a cooling medium for cooling the charging gun, continuously supplying the cooling medium into the sealed cavity. One end of the cooling pipe 12, used for inputting the cooling medium, is located near the terminal assembly 2, and the other end is connected to the air supply device. The cooling medium flows out from the air supply device, enters the first cavity via the cooling pipe 12, and cools the exterior of the terminal assembly 2. In this embodiment, the first air supply pipe 12a is used for inputting the cooling medium. The end of the first air supply pipe 12a away from the housing is connected to the air supply device, and the end located inside the housing is located near the terminal assembly 2.

[0042] This utility model provides an embodiment, please refer to it. Figure 1 The air supply device includes an air pump 5, which provides a power source for the cooling medium to enter the sealed cavity along the first air supply pipe 12a.

[0043] Specifically, the air supply device includes an air pump 5. External air enters the air supply device, and the air pump 5 compresses the external air and sends it into the cooling pipe 12. In this embodiment, the cooling medium can be air. The first air supply pipe 12a is used to input the cooling medium, and the second air supply pipe 12b is used to output the cooling medium. External air is compressed by the air pump 5 and enters the charging gun. It is then input into the sealed cavity through the first air supply pipe 12a. During the use of the charging gun, the terminal assembly 2 will continuously generate heat. The cooling medium is introduced into the first cavity to exchange heat with the outside of the terminal assembly 2, reducing the temperature of the terminal assembly 2. The air after heat exchange is then discharged through the second air supply pipe 12b. The air pump 5 provides the power source for the flow of the cooling medium. Driven by the air pump 5, the cooling medium is continuously delivered to the first cavity to cool the terminal assembly 2 before being discharged from the charging gun.

[0044] Further, please refer to Figure 3 The terminal assembly 2 has multiple power terminals 21, which are connected to the power line 11. The power terminals 21 are equipped with temperature sensors 24 for collecting temperature data.

[0045] Specifically, the power terminal 21 is connected to the power line 11, preferably by crimping or ultrasonic welding. A temperature sensor 24 is provided on the power terminal 21. Preferably, the temperature sensor 24 is located at the end of the power terminal 21 near the first gas supply pipe 12a, and is used to collect the temperature of the power terminal 21 for real-time temperature monitoring during the operation of the charging gun.

[0046] Further, please refer to Figure 1 The air supply device also includes a control device (not shown in the figure) for dynamically adjusting the amount of cooling medium input. The control device is connected to the temperature sensor 24 and also to the air pump 5.

[0047] Specifically, the air supply device also includes a control device, which is connected to the temperature sensor 24. During the use of the charging gun, the temperature sensor 24 collects the temperature of the power terminal 21 and sends the temperature signal to the control device. The temperature of the power terminal 21 needs to be controlled within the standard requirement range. The control device is also connected to the air pump 5. After receiving the temperature signal, the control device sends a control signal to the air pump 5 to dynamically adjust the airflow of the cooling medium output by the air pump 5. Understandably, if the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 24 is too high and exceeds the standard requirement range, the control device receives temperature feedback from inside the charging gun and releases a control signal to the air pump 5 to increase the airflow. The increased airflow can accelerate the cooling of the power terminal 21, restoring the temperature of the power terminal 21 to the standard requirement range. The temperature sensor 24 collects the temperature change of the power terminal 21 in real time and feeds back the adjusted temperature value to the control device. After receiving the temperature value feedback, the control device continues to release a control signal to the air pump 5 to adjust the output airflow of the air pump 5, realizing automatic feedback control of temperature and airflow. Preferably, the control device is also connected to a monitoring device for detecting ambient temperature. When the ambient temperature is too high, the control system will also release a control signal to increase the output airflow of the air pump 5. Through the cooperation of the temperature sensor 24, the control device, and the monitoring device, dynamic temperature adjustment of the charging gun can be achieved under different temperature environments, ensuring heat dissipation, increasing the applicability of the product, and improving the user experience.

[0048] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 3The end of the second gas supply pipe 12b away from the housing is connected to a one-way valve 14 for controlling the flow of cooling medium from the inside of the charging gun to the outside, so that the cooling medium flows out of the charging gun from the sealed cavity through the second gas supply pipe 12b.

[0049] Specifically, one end of the cooling pipe 12, used for outputting the cooling medium, is connected to the sealed cavity, and the other end is connected to a one-way valve 14. The one-way valve 14 controls the flow direction of the cooling medium, ensuring that the cooling medium can only flow from inside the charging gun to the outside. After the cooling medium completes heat exchange with the terminal assembly 2, the cooling medium flows out in one direction. In this embodiment, the second gas supply pipe 12b is used to output the cooling medium. The end of the second gas supply pipe 12b away from the housing is connected to the one-way valve 14, and the other end of the second gas supply pipe 12b is connected to the sealed cavity.

[0050] This utility model provides an embodiment, please refer to it. Figures 1 to 7 There are two first gas supply pipes 12a and one second gas supply pipe 12b. The cable 1 has two power lines 11 and one ground line 13. The terminal assembly 2 has two power terminals 21 and one ground terminal 22. The two power lines 11 are respectively fastened to the two first gas supply pipes 12a by heat shrink tubing, and the ground line 13 is fastened to the second gas supply pipe 12b by heat shrink tubing. One end of the first gas supply pipe 12a is set close to the power terminal 21.

[0051] In this embodiment, cable 1 includes two power lines 11, a ground line 13, and other wire harnesses 16. The gaps inside cable 1 are filled with filler 15, giving cable 1 an internal sealed structure. Terminal assembly 2 includes two power terminals 21, a ground terminal 22, and other terminals 23. The two power terminals 21 are respectively connected to the two power lines 11, which can be achieved by crimping or ultrasonic welding. The ground terminal 22 is connected to the ground line 13, and the other wire harnesses 16 are connected to the other terminals 23. Cooling pipe 12 includes two first air supply pipes 12a and one second air supply pipe 12b. The two first air supply pipes 12a are respectively disposed in close contact with the two power lines 11. The first air supply pipes 12a and the closely disposed power lines 11 are covered with heat-shrink tubing, allowing the first air supply pipes 12a to maintain continuous contact with the outer circumferential surface of the power lines 11, fixing the position of the first air supply pipes 12a, and preventing displacement of the first air supply pipes 12a during the operation of the charging gun, which would affect the cooling effect. The first air supply pipe 12a is positioned near the power terminal 21 at one end, ensuring effective cooling of the outer surface of the power terminal 21 and the connection between the power terminal 21 and the power line 11. The second air supply pipe 12b is positioned close to the ground wire 13 and is covered with heat shrink tubing, ensuring continuous contact between the second air supply pipe 12b and the outer circumference of the ground wire 13. This fixes the position of the second air supply pipe 12b and prevents it from shifting during the operation of the charging gun, which would affect the cooling effect.

[0052] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 7 The cross-sectional area of ​​the first gas pipe 12a is smaller than that of the second gas pipe 12b.

[0053] Specifically, the first air supply pipe 12a is used to transport the cooling medium from the outside to the sealed cavity. The end of the first air supply pipe 12a away from the housing is connected to an air supply device, which has an air pump 5. The air pump 5 pumps the compressed cooling medium from the air supply device into the first cavity through the first air supply pipe 12a. During the use of the charging gun, the terminal assembly 2 continuously generates heat. The cooling medium is transported along the first air supply pipe 12a to a position near the power terminal 21, where it exchanges heat with the outside of the terminal assembly 2. The flow of the cooling medium carries away the surface temperature of the terminal assembly 2, and at the same time, it cools the connection between the power terminal 21 and the power line 11, the connection between the ground terminal 22 and the ground line 13, and the connection between other terminals 23 and other wire harnesses 16. The second air supply pipe 12b is used to transport the cooling medium from the sealed cavity to the outside of the charging gun. The end of the second air supply pipe 12b away from the housing is connected to a one-way valve 14. The one-way valve 14 controls the flow direction of the cooling medium, so that the cooling medium can only flow from the inside of the charging gun to the outside. The second air supply pipe 12b, located inside the housing, communicates with the sealed cavity at one end. Cooling medium enters the sealed cavity along the first air supply pipe 12a, carrying away the heat generated by the terminal assembly 2, and then flows out through the second air supply pipe 12b. In this embodiment, the cable 1 has two first air supply pipes 12a for inputting cooling medium and one second air supply pipe 12b for outputting cooling medium. It is understood that the cross-sectional area of ​​the first air supply pipe 12a is smaller than that of the second air supply pipe 12b to ensure smooth flow of cooling medium during charging gun use and to balance the input and output flow rates of the cooling medium. Furthermore, the power terminal 21 has a temperature sensor 24 for collecting the temperature of the power terminal 21. An air supply device is connected to the end of the first air supply pipe 12a away from the power terminal 21. The air supply device also includes a control device, which is connected to the temperature sensor 24. During the use of the charging gun, the temperature sensor 24 collects the temperature of the power terminal 21 and sends the temperature signal to the control device. The temperature of the power terminal 21 needs to be controlled within the standard requirement range. After receiving the temperature signal, the control device sends a control signal to the air pump 5 to dynamically adjust the airflow of the cooling medium into the first air supply pipe 12a. Understandably, if the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 24 is too high and exceeds the standard requirement range, the control device receives temperature feedback from inside the charging gun and releases a control signal to the air pump 5 to increase the airflow into the first air supply pipe 12a. The increased airflow increases the flow of the cooling medium delivered from the first air supply pipe 12a to the first cavity, which can accelerate the cooling of the power terminal 21 and restore the temperature of the power terminal 21 to the standard requirement range. The cooling medium flows in the sealed cavity and then flows out through the second air supply pipe 12b to cool the terminal assembly 2.Temperature sensor 24 collects the temperature change of power terminal 21 in real time and feeds back the adjusted temperature value to the control device. After receiving the temperature value feedback, the control device continues to release control signals to air pump 5 to adjust the output airflow of air pump 5, thereby realizing automatic feedback control of temperature and airflow, ensuring heat dissipation effect, increasing the applicability of the product, and improving user experience.
