[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model relates to a temperature control plug wire, which is connected by three-pole plug and cable. The cable is composed of cable core and insulating plastic sleeve. The cable core is composed of parallel live wire, neutral wire, ground wire and signal control wire wrapped by insulating plastic sleeve. The signal control wire is used to control the power control box.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] Three-prong plug cables are typically used in high-power applications. Taking new energy vehicle charging as an example, they are used to connect to the charging station's socket panel and are equipped with a power control box to control the charging current, charging voltage, and the charging process. In fast charging scenarios, the high charging current reaches 150-400A, allowing the vehicle's battery to be fully charged in a short time.
[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. Figure 1 , Figure 2 Two perspective views of the first embodiment of the temperature control plug wire disclosed in this utility model are shown respectively. It can be seen that it is composed of a three-pole plug 1 and a cable 2. The cable 2 is composed of a cable core 21 and an insulating plastic sheath 22. The cable core 21 is composed of a bundle of parallel live wires 211, neutral wires 212, ground wires 213, and signal control wires 214, all wrapped in the insulating plastic sheath 22. The signal control wires 214 are used to input control signals to the power control box. The three-pole plug 1 mainly consists of a support frame 11, a plastic insulator 12, a live wire connector 13, a neutral wire connector 14, a ground wire connector 15, a temperature switch 16, and a ceramic heat-conducting component 17. The support frame 11 serves as the foundation for fixing the live wire connector 13, neutral wire connector 14, ground wire connector 15, and ceramic heat-conducting component 17, and also serves as the injection molding foundation for the plastic insulator 12. Furthermore, in the injection-molded and cold-cured state of the plastic insulator 12, the entire structure of the stabilizer 11, temperature switch 16, and ceramic heat-conducting component 17, as well as parts of the live wire connector 13, neutral wire connector 14, and ground wire connector 15, are concealed within it. The live wire connector 13, neutral wire connector 14, and ground wire connector 15 are directly electrically connected to the live wire 211, neutral wire 212, and ground wire 213, respectively. The temperature switch 16 is inserted into the tail of the ceramic heat-conducting component 17 and includes a temperature sensing and control body 161 and a first lead pin 162. The first lead pin 162 is directly led out from the temperature sensing and control body 161 and is connected to the signal control line 214. Thanks to the thermal conductivity of the ceramic heat-conducting component 17, the temperature switch 16 can indirectly sense the real-time temperature of the live wire connector 13 and the neutral wire connector 14 (e.g., ...). Figures 2-7 (as shown in the image).
[0025] In the technical scheme disclosed by the utility model, the temperature switch 16 is a switch using a bimetallic strip as a temperature sensing element. The ceramic heat conducting part 17 has excellent electrical insulation and heat conductivity. During use of the temperature control plug wire, the temperature at the live plug 13 and the neutral plug 14 is transmitted in real time to the temperature switch 16 through the ceramic heat conducting part 17. When the temperature rises to the preset temperature value, the temperature sensing control body 161 generates internal stress due to heat and rapidly acts to open the contact, so that the signal control line 214 cannot form a current loop, thereby interrupting the power supply to the cable core 21 due to control of the power supply control box, and the new energy vehicle can interrupt the charging process, thereby playing a thermal protection role.
[0026] As shown in Figure 8 、 9 , the ceramic heat conducting part 17 is composed of a ceramic body 171, a first heat conducting arm 172 and a second heat conducting arm 173. The ceramic body 171 is formed with a plug-in cavity 1711 for accommodating the temperature switch 16. In the state where the live plug 13, the neutral plug 14, the ground plug 15 and the ceramic heat conducting part 17 are fixed relative to the stabilizing frame 11, the first heat conducting arm 172 and the second heat conducting arm 173 are respectively in top contact with the live plug 13 and the neutral plug 14 (as shown in Figure 5 、 6 , 7).
[0027] Under the premise that heat can be quickly conducted from the live plug 13 and the neutral plug 14 to the temperature switch 16, in order to ensure the stability of the plug-in of the temperature switch 16 relative to the ceramic heat conducting part 17 and to avoid position change or accidental falling during the injection molding process of the plastic insulator 12 due to excessive impact force of the liquid resin, as a further optimization of the above technical scheme, the plug-in cavity 1711 can be filled with heat conducting silica gel (not shown in the figure) before the plug-in operation of the temperature switch 16 is performed. The temperature switch 16 can be stably inserted and quickly heat-conducted with the ceramic heat conducting part 17 by virtue of the excellent bonding performance and high heat conductivity of the heat conducting silica gel.
[0028] After the first batch of temperature control plug wires are put on the market, some southern customers feedback that the temperature control plug wire is prone to short circuit in a humid environment, which will inevitably affect the safety of the charging process of the new energy vehicle. The reason is that the fusion degree of the material is insufficient, and after the plastic insulator 12 is injection molded, it is difficult to wrap the live plug 13, the neutral plug 14, the ground plug 15 and the ceramic body 171 without gaps, and some water vapor enters through the gap and easily condenses into water on the ceramic body 171, thereby causing the risk of short circuit of the live plug 13 and the neutral plug 14. In view of this, as a further optimization of the above technical scheme, as shown in Figure 8 、 9As shown in the drawings, a strip-shaped through groove 1712 is formed on the front end face of the ceramic body 171, and the number of the strip-shaped through grooves 1712 is multiple, and is arranged linearly along the width direction of the ceramic body 171. In this way, in the use process of the temperature control plug wire, a large amount of condensed water can be stored in the strip-shaped through grooves 1712, so as to effectively prevent the occurrence of the "short circuit" phenomenon caused by the direct electrical conduction of the live plug piece 13 and the zero plug piece 14 due to the excessive condensed water.
[0029] Figure 10 The wiring schematic diagram of the three-pole plug and the cable core in the second embodiment of the temperature control plug wire disclosed in the utility model is shown, and it can be known that the difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the temperature switch 16 is grounded. The temperature switch 16 further comprises a second lead pin 163. The second lead pin 163 is led out from the temperature sensing control body 161, and is connected with the ground wire 213 or the ground plug piece 15. In this way, the temperature switch 16 not only monitors the temperature change of the live plug piece 13, the zero plug piece 14 and the plug surface, and performs overheat protection, but also can ensure that the current can flow back to the ground through the ground wire when the temperature switch 16 or the related electrical equipment appears the leakage situation, so as to be beneficial to the safety of the person and the equipment.

Various modifications to the embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the utility model.
