DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The application will be further described in details through specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings. In different embodiments, similar elements are associated with similar element reference numbers. In the following embodiments, many details are described in order to make the application better understood. However, those skilled in the art can easily recognize that some features can be omitted in different cases, or can be replaced by other elements, materials, methods. In some cases, some operations related to the application are not shown or described in the specification, in order to avoid the core part of the application being overwhelmed by too much description, and it is not necessary to describe these related operations in detail for those skilled in the art, according to the description in the specification and the general technical knowledge in the art.

[0032] In addition, the features, operations or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any appropriate way to form various embodiments, and the operation steps involved in each embodiment can also be sequentially adjusted or adjusted in a manner that is obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the specification and drawings are only for the purpose of clearly describing one embodiment, and do not mean that the composition and / or order is necessary.

[0033] The serial numbers of the components in this paper, such as "first", "second", etc., are only used to distinguish the described objects, and do not have any order or technical meaning. The "connection" and "coupling" in this application include direct and indirect connections (couplings) unless otherwise specified.

[0034] In the related art, the charging garage adopts the mode of fixed charging piles, that is, fixed charging piles are arranged on each parking space. This mode has the advantages of simplicity and ease of implementation, but has the disadvantages of poor flexibility of charging pile layout, inability to adapt to the needs of different vehicle models, and high maintenance cost. In addition, the charging garage can also adopt wireless charging technology, that is, a wireless charging device is embedded in the ground or parking space to charge the vehicle through electromagnetic induction and the like. This mode has the advantages of no physical contact and reduced wear and tear of charging equipment, but the current technology is not mature, the charging efficiency is low, and the cost is high.

[0035] To solve the above problems, the present application provides a charging garage, which realizes automatic charging of vehicles, thereby realizing efficient and safe unmanned charging management, reducing manual intervention, and improving charging efficiency and safety.

[0036] Referring to Figure 1 The charging garage provided by the present application includes a garage body 10, a plurality of charging connectors 20, a carrying mechanism 30, and a charging mechanism 40.

[0037] The garage body 10 is a garage for parking vehicles, which can be made of steel structure or reinforced concrete structure, and is mainly composed of a parking area and a fence surrounding the periphery of the parking area. Among them, the garage is mainly used for parking new energy vehicles in order to automatically charge the vehicles. Among them, the new energy vehicles can be pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles, or range extended vehicles that can be charged.

[0038] The garage body 10 is provided with an entrance 11, a preset standby position 12, and a plurality of preset parking positions 13. The entrance 11 can be used for vehicles 100 to enter and exit the garage body 10, and can be parked in the preset parking position 13 after entering the inside of the garage body 10. The vehicle 100 can be automatically charged in the preset parking position 13, and after the charging is completed, the vehicle 100 can be removed from the garage body 10 through the entrance 11. Of course, the preset parking position 13 where the vehicle 100 is parked is an idle parking position.

[0039] The plurality of charging connectors 20 are arranged in the plurality of preset parking positions 13. The charging connector 20 can be electrically connected to the charging power supply through a cable. The vehicle 100 has a charging port, and the charging connector 20 can be connected to the charging port of the vehicle 100. The vehicle 100 and the charging connector 20 can be connected through the cable to charge the vehicle 100 through the charging power supply.

[0040] The carrying mechanism 30 is arranged at the entrance 11, and is used to carry the vehicle 100 from the entrance 11 to the preset parking position 13, or carry the vehicle 100 from the preset parking position 13 to the entrance 11. Specifically, the carrying mechanism 30 carries the vehicle 100 from the entrance 10 to the idle preset parking position 13, or the carrying mechanism 30 carries the vehicle 100 after completing charging from the preset parking position 13 to the entrance 11, and then the vehicle 100 drives out of the garage body 10 through the entrance 11.

[0041] The charging mechanism 40 is arranged at the preset standby position 12, and is used to move from the preset standby position 12 to the preset parking position 13 to insert the charging connector 20 into the charging port of the vehicle 100, or move from the preset parking position 13 to the preset standby position 12 to pull out the charging connector 20 inserted into the charging port of the vehicle 100.

[0042] As shown in Figure 6 , the charging garage provided by the present application further comprises a power supplementing mechanism 16 arranged at the preset standby position 12, which is used to supplement power to the charging mechanism 40 so that the charging mechanism 40 can keep in a state of being ready to work. For example, the charging mechanism 40 performs the action of inserting and pulling out the charging connector 20 through the action of electric energy, and the power supplementing mechanism 16 supplements power to the charging mechanism 40.

[0043] Continuing to refer to Figure 6 , the garage body 10 is further provided with a ramp structure 15 at the inside of the entrance 11, and the ramp structure 15 is preferably a parabolic mechanism. One end of the ramp structure 15 is connected to the entrance 11, and the carrying mechanism 30 is arranged at the other end of the ramp structure 15, and the height of the other end of the ramp structure 15 is equal to the height of the carrying mechanism 30. The vehicle 100 needing to be charged drives from one end of the ramp structure 15 to the ramp structure 15 through the entrance 11, and then drives to the carrying mechanism 30 through the other end of the ramp structure 15, so that the carrying mechanism 30 carries the vehicle 100 from the entrance to the idle preset parking position 13. Of course, the vehicle 100 after completing charging can be carried by the carrying mechanism 30 to the other end of the ramp structure 15.

[0044] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 1The direction indicated by the dotted arrow approximately shows the moving path of the charging mechanism 40 from the preset standby position 12 to the preset parking position 13. After the charging mechanism 40 moves to the preset parking position 13 where the vehicle 100 is parked, the charging connector 20 can be inserted into the charging port of the vehicle 100, so that the vehicle 100 is electrically connected with the charging power supply through the charging connector 20, and the vehicle 100 can be charged. When the vehicle 100 is fully charged, the charging mechanism 40 can pull out the charging connector 20 from the charging port of the vehicle 100 and return to the preset standby position 12.

[0045] It should be noted that after the charging mechanism 40 inserts the charging connector 20 into the charging port of the vehicle 100, the charging mechanism 40 can continue to stay in the preset parking position 13 to wait for the vehicle 100 to be fully charged, or the charging mechanism 40 can move from the preset parking position 13 to the preset standby position 12 to continue standby. Of course, the charging mechanism 40 after completing the action of inserting the charging connector 20 and returning to the preset standby position 12 can perform the action of charging the vehicle 100 parked in other preset parking positions 13 to improve the use efficiency of the charging mechanism 40.

[0046] In this application, after the vehicle 100 that needs to be charged drives to the entrance 11 of the garage body 10, the carrying mechanism 30 carries the vehicle 100 from the entrance 11 to the preset parking position 13, and then the charging mechanism 40 starts and moves from the preset standby position 12 to the preset parking position 13, and inserts the charging connector 20 into the charging port of the vehicle 100 to charge the vehicle 100. After the vehicle 100 is fully charged, the charging mechanism 40 pulls out the charging connector 20 inserted into the charging port of the vehicle 100, and the carrying mechanism 30 carries the vehicle 100 from the preset parking position 13 to the entrance 11, thereby realizing automatic charging of the vehicle 100. The charging process can realize efficient and safe unmanned management, reduce manual intervention, and improve charging efficiency and safety.

[0047] In this application, generally, the charging connector 20 arranged in each preset parking position 13 is located at the same position of the preset parking position 13, and the charging port of the vehicle 100 can be located at the front, rear, left front, left rear, right front, and right rear of the vehicle 100. Therefore, when the vehicle 100 is parked in the preset parking position 13, the parking direction of the vehicle 100 needs to be adjusted so that the charging port of the vehicle 100 is close to the charging connector 20.

[0048] As Figure 1As shown, the charging garage 10 provided by the present application further comprises a first identification module 50, which is arranged at the entrance 11 and electrically connected with the carrying mechanism 30. The first identification module 50 is used to identify the position of the charging port of the vehicle 100 on the vehicle 10. The carrying mechanism 30 is further used to adjust the direction of parking the vehicle 100 in the preset parking space 13 according to the position of the charging port of the vehicle 100 on the vehicle 100, so that the charging port of the vehicle 100 is close to the charging connector 20.

[0049] As shown, Figure 1 Taking the vehicle 100 near the entrance 11 as an example, taking the charging connector 20 arranged on the left side of the preset parking space 13 as an example in the direction from the front to the rear of the vehicle 100, and combining Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when the charging port is located at the left front, left rear, front and rear of the vehicle 100, after the vehicle 100 is carried and parked in the preset parking space 13 by the carrying mechanism 30, the direction from the front to the rear of the vehicle 100 is Figure 2 from top to bottom in the figure, when the charging port is located at the right front, right rear, front and rear of the vehicle 100, after the vehicle 100 is carried and parked in the preset parking space 13 by the carrying mechanism 30, the direction from the front to the rear of the vehicle 100 is Figure 3 from bottom to top in the figure.

[0050] Among them, Figure 2 and Figure 3 The curved dotted line in the figure represents the moving path of the carrying mechanism 30 when parking the vehicle 100, so as to make the charging port of the vehicle 100 closer to the charging connector 20. Specifically, the carrying mechanism 30 moves in the direction from the front to the rear of the vehicle 100 when carrying, as shown in Figure 2 After moving forward and passing through the preset parking space 13 where the vehicle 100 needs to be parked, the carrying mechanism 30 parks the vehicle 100 in the preset parking space 13 in a reverse garage manner, so as to make the charging port located at the left front, left rear, front and rear of the vehicle 100 closer to the charging connector 20, as shown in Figure 3 The carrying mechanism 30 moves to the left to the preset parking space 13, so as to make the charging port located at the right front, right rear, front and rear of the vehicle 100 closer to the charging connector 20.

[0051] It should be noted that the first identification module 50 can use visual identification to identify the position of the charging port of the vehicle 100, for example, moving around the vehicle 100 to identify the charging port of the vehicle 100, of course, the first identification module 50 can also be arranged on both sides of the vehicle 100 at the entrance 11 to perform visual identification.

[0052] Continuing to refer to Figure 1As shown, in order to better control the carrying mechanism 30, the charging mechanism 40 and the first identification module 50, the charging garage provided by the application further comprises a control module 60, which is arranged at the entrance 11 and is coupled with the carrying mechanism 30, the charging mechanism 40 and the first identification module 50.

[0053] In this embodiment, the control module 60 can be a touchable operation screen, which has carrying, parking space selection, charging, and completed charging options. When the vehicle 100 needs to be charged and travels to the entrance 11, the carrying option on the operation screen is touched, and then an idle parking space is selected through the parking space selection option. Then the carrying mechanism 30 starts to work and carries the vehicle 100 from the entrance 11 to the idle preset parking space 13. After the vehicle 100 is carried to the preset parking space 13, the charging option on the operation screen is touched to control the charging mechanism 40 to start working. The charging mechanism 40 moves from the preset standby position 12 to the preset parking space where the vehicle 100 to be charged is parked, and inserts the charging connector 20 into the charging port of the vehicle 100. When the vehicle 100 is charged, the completed charging option on the operation screen is touched, and then the charging mechanism 40 can pull out the charging connector 20 from the charging port and return to the original position, so that the user can operate conveniently through the control module 60.

[0054] If the vehicle 100 that has completed charging does not need to be moved out of the charging garage (for example, the user does not use the vehicle 100 temporarily), as shown, Figure 6 In another embodiment of the application, the garage body 10 further comprises a preset temporary storage position 14, and the carrying mechanism 30 is used to carry the vehicle 100 that has completed charging from the preset parking space 13 to the preset temporary storage position 14. When the user needs to use the vehicle 100, the carrying mechanism 30 can be controlled by the control module 60 to carry the vehicle 100 from the preset temporary storage position 14 to the entrance 11.

[0055] The charging garage provided by the embodiment further comprises a monitoring module 70, which is arranged at the entrance 11 and is electrically connected with the charging connector 20, and is used to monitor the charging capacity of the vehicle 100. Specifically, the charging capacity of the vehicle 100 is monitored through the charging connector 20, so as to determine whether the vehicle 100 has completed charging in time.

[0056] In the application, when the vehicle 100 that needs to be charged travels to the entrance 11, the cover at the charging port of the vehicle 100 needs to be opened, so that the charging connector 20 can be inserted subsequently. The cover at the charging port can be opened by the driver or the manager of the charging garage.

[0057] Due to the difference in design of different manufacturers, the charging port of different models of vehicles 100 manufactured by different manufacturers are also different. In this regard, the charging garage provided by the embodiment further comprises a conversion connector 80, which is arranged at the entrance and exit 11. The conversion connector 80 has a connection end 81 and a common end 82. The connection end 81 is used for plugging into the charging port of the vehicle 100, and the common end 82 is adapted to be plugged into the charging connector 20.

[0058] Specifically, when the charging port 11 of the vehicle 100 to be charged does not match the charging connector 20 installed in the preset parking position 13, the connection end 81 of the conversion connector 80 is plugged into the charging port of the vehicle 100 by the driver or the manager of the charging garage after the cover of the charging port is opened. Then, after the vehicle 100 is carried to the preset parking position 13 by the carrying mechanism 30, the charging connector 20 is plugged into the common end 82 of the conversion connector 80 by the charging mechanism 40. In this way, the charging connector 20 can match different models of vehicles 100, and the vehicle 100 can be parked in any preset parking position 13, further saving cost and improving charging efficiency.

[0059] As shown in Figures 4-6 , the charging garage provided by the embodiment further comprises a charging support 90 arranged above the plurality of preset parking positions 13. The charging support 90 is provided with a plurality of preset charging positions 91, and the plurality of preset charging positions 91 correspond to the plurality of preset parking positions 13 one by one. The plurality of charging connectors 20 are arranged in the plurality of preset charging positions 91. In other words, the charging mechanism 40 plugs the charging connector 20 into the charging port of the vehicle 100 from the preset charging position 91, or pulls out the charging connector 20 from the charging port of the vehicle 100 and returns it to the preset charging position 91.

[0060] As shown in Figure 5 , Figures 7-10 , the charging mechanism 40 comprises an autonomous guided mobile assembly 41 and a grabbing assembly 42. The grabbing assembly 42 is arranged on the autonomous guided mobile assembly 41. The autonomous guided mobile assembly 41 is used to carry the grabbing assembly 42 from the preset standby position 12 to the preset parking position 13, or the autonomous guided mobile assembly 41 is used to carry the grabbing assembly 42 from the preset parking position 13 to the preset standby position 12. The grabbing assembly 42 is used to grab the charging connector 20 and plug it into the charging port of the vehicle 100 after being carried by the autonomous guided mobile assembly 41 from the preset standby position 12 to the preset parking position 13, or the grabbing assembly 42 is used to grab the charging connector 20 plugged into the charging port of the vehicle 100 and return it after being carried by the autonomous guided mobile assembly 41 from the preset parking position 13 to the preset standby position 12.

[0061] In order to enable the charging mechanism 40 to accurately complete the action of grabbing the charging connector 20, the charging mechanism 40 provided in the embodiment further comprises a second identification module 43 and a mechanical arm 44, the mechanical arm 44 is arranged on the autonomous guiding and moving assembly 41, the grabbing assembly 42 and the second identification module 43 are arranged on the mechanical arm 44, and the second identification module 43 is electrically connected to the mechanical arm 44 and the grabbing assembly 42. The second identification module 43 is used to identify the charging port of the vehicle 100 in the preset parking space 13 and the charging connector 20, so as to control the mechanical arm 44 and the grabbing assembly 42, and the second identification module 43 preferably also adopts a visual identification mode to identify the charging port and the charging connector 20. The grabbing assembly 42 is used to grab the charging connector 20 through the mechanical arm 44, and insert the charging connector 20 into the charging port of the vehicle 100 in the preset parking space 13 through the mechanical arm 44.

[0062] The mechanical arm 44 can be a multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm structure. When the autonomous guiding and moving assembly 41 receives a charging instruction, the second identification module 43 identifies the charging connector 20, and then controls the mechanical arm 44 to move the grabbing assembly 42 to a position close to and easy to grab the charging connector 20. Then the grabbing assembly 42 grabs the charging connector 20, and after the grabbing assembly 42 grabs the charging connector 20, the mechanical arm 44 moves to insert the charging connector 20 into the charging port of the vehicle 100. After the charging is completed, the second identification module 43 identifies the charging connector 20 inserted into the charging port of the vehicle 100, the mechanical arm 44 moves to move the grabbing assembly 42 to a position close to and easy to grab the charging connector 20, and then the grabbing assembly 42 grabs the charging connector 20, and after the grabbing assembly 43 grabs the charging connector 20, the mechanical arm 44 is controlled to move to pull out the charging connector 20 from the charging port.

[0063] The charging mechanism 40 identifies the charging port of the vehicle 100 and the charging connector 20 through the second identification module 43, and controls the mechanical arm 44 to adjust the position of the grabbing assembly 42, so that after the mechanical arm 44 moves the grabbing assembly 42 to a position close to and suitable for grabbing the charging connector 20, the grabbing assembly 42 is controlled to grab the charging connector 20, and the grabbing assembly 42 for grabbing the charging connector 20 is moved to a position close to the charging port under the action of the mechanical arm 44. Then the charging connector 20 is inserted into the charging port of the vehicle 100 under the action of the mechanical arm 44, so as to charge the vehicle 100 through the charging connector 20.

[0064] As Figure 7As shown, in order to realize the autonomous guiding function, the charging mechanism 40 provided by the embodiment further comprises a navigation assembly 45, which is arranged on the autonomous guiding moving assembly 41 and is electrically connected with the autonomous guiding moving assembly 41. The navigation assembly 45 is used for navigating the moving path of the autonomous guiding moving assembly 41, for example, navigating the path from the preset standby position 12 to the preset parking position 13, and navigating the path from the preset parking position 13 to the preset standby position 12.

[0065] The navigation assembly 45 can be a laser radar navigation module. The laser radar navigation module can navigate through laser radar technology. It can determine the information of the surrounding environment by emitting laser beams and measuring the reflection time, so as to realize accurate positioning and path planning. Specifically, after the laser beams emitted by the laser radar navigation module scan the surrounding environment, the laser radar module can measure the time difference from emission to return of each laser beam by using the "time of flight" principle, so as to calculate the distance between itself and the surrounding objects. These data are used to construct two-dimensional or three-dimensional point cloud data of the environment, and then an environment map is generated. After obtaining the construction data, the autonomous guiding moving assembly 41 determines its own position by using the simultaneous localization and mapping technology. The mapping technology combines odometer information and laser data to accurately correct the position and attitude of the robot through pose estimation and map matching, so as to realize the functions of avoiding obstacles and planning the optimal path, and can work efficiently in narrow channels and highly dynamic working environments.

[0066] In this application, the carrying mechanism 30 also has the function of autonomous navigation. It can also realize the navigation function by setting a module similar to the navigation assembly 45 in the charging mechanism 40. For the module of the carrying mechanism 30 to realize the function of autonomous navigation, please refer to the navigation assembly 45 in the charging mechanism 40.

[0067] After the charging connector 20 is inserted into the charging port of the vehicle 100, in order to facilitate the judgment of whether the circuit is connected, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 The charging mechanism 40 provided by the present application further comprises a to-position detection assembly 46, which is installed on the grabbing assembly 42. The to-position detection assembly 46 is used for detecting whether the charging connector 20 and the charging port of the vehicle 100 are connected in circuit. In other words, the to-position detection assembly 46 can detect whether there is current flowing between the charging connector 20 and the charging port of the vehicle 100, that is, whether the charging connector 20 is inserted into the charging port of the vehicle 100.

[0068] As shown in Figure 8 The charging connector 20 usually has a locking piece 21. When the charging connector 20 is inserted into the charging port of the vehicle 100, the locking piece 21 is locked at the charging port. In order to realize the function of automatically locking the locking piece 21 at the charging port, as shown inFigure 9 and Figure 10 As shown in
