Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of charging pile installation, and in particular to a charging pile. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the electric vehicle industry, the demand for charging piles is also constantly increasing. Among them, some charging piles are characterized by their large size and heavy weight, and for these charging piles, the installation methods are often limited to crane lifting and forklift loading.

[0003] For aesthetic and water-prevention purposes, the top outer wall of these charging piles is typically a smooth, rounded structure. However, this smooth, rounded top wall is not suitable for hoisting, so these charging piles often have to be lifted by forklifts. In other words, the installation methods for these charging piles are greatly limited. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a charging pile solution to address the problem that charging piles cannot be effectively installed by hoisting.

[0005] A charging pile includes a cabinet and a top cover designed separately from the cabinet. A first mounting hole is provided on the top wall of the cabinet for installing a lifting ring. The top cover is installed on the top wall of the cabinet.

[0006] The first mounting hole of this invention has an internal thread on its side wall.

[0007] The cabinet of this invention has a second mounting hole on the top wall, and a fastening screw is provided in the second mounting hole. The top cover has a blind hole, and a rivet nut is provided in the blind hole. The fastening screw and the rivet nut cooperate to fix the top cover to the top wall of the cabinet.

[0008] The present invention is provided with a lifting ring at the first mounting hole, and the lifting ring is spaced apart from the second mounting hole so as to allow the lifting ring to avoid the top cover.

[0009] The top cover of this utility model is provided on the first mounting hole.

[0010] The cabinet of this utility model is provided with a first wiring hole on the top wall and a second wiring hole on the top cover. The charging pile also includes a cable and an antenna. The cable passes through the first wiring hole and the second wiring hole. One end of the cable is located inside the cabinet and the antenna is installed at the other end of the cable.

[0011] The cabinet top wall and the top cover of this utility model form a cable routing cavity, and a cable take-up device is provided in the cable routing cavity, and the cable is wound around the cable take-up device.

[0012] The cable retractor described in this utility model is mounted on the top cover.

[0013] The cable routing cavity of this utility model is further provided with a mounting plate and a cable guard pulley. The cable guard pulley and the cable take-up device are mounted on the top cover through the mounting plate. The cable passes through the cable guard pulley and is spaced apart from the mounting plate.

[0014] The antenna of this invention abuts against the top cover.

[0015] The top cover of this utility model is provided with an indicator light.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] 1. The charging pile's outer casing is divided into two parts: a cabinet and a top cover, with the cabinet serving as the main body. After installing a lifting ring at the first mounting hole, the cabinet can be hoisted using the lifting ring. Due to the small weight and volume of the top cover, it can be easily installed onto the top of the cabinet after the cabinet is hoisted. In other words, the charging pile provided by this invention is well-suited for hoisting installation.

[0018] 2. After the charging pile is installed, the top cover is installed on the top of the cabinet so that the overall shape design of the charging pile can be largely the same as the existing technology, maintaining the smooth arc design of the top of the charging pile and keeping the characteristic that the top of the charging pile is not easy to accumulate water.

The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0037] Example:

[0038] See Figure 1 This embodiment provides a charging pile, including a cabinet 1 and a top cover 2. The cabinet 1 is generally rectangular, therefore the top of the cabinet 1 is generally flat. The top cover 2 is an arc-shaped cover, installed on the top wall of the cabinet 1. Thus, the overall shape of the charging pile in this embodiment is generally consistent with existing technologies, and the top sidewall of the charging pile can maintain a relatively smooth state to ensure the water-proof function of the top of the charging pile.

[0039] The top cover 2 can be fixed to the cabinet 1, or it can be disassembled and assembled with the cabinet 1. However, it is necessary to ensure that the cabinet 1 and the top cover 2 are separate parts, rather than an integrated structure, so as to ensure that the installation process of the charging pile includes the action of assembling the top cover 2 to the top of the cabinet 1.

[0040] It's easy to understand that most of the size and weight of the charging pile is concentrated in the cabinet 1, thus limiting the main installation method for the cabinet 1 to crane lifting or forklift loading. In contrast, the top cover 2 is smaller in weight and size, so it can be installed more easily onto the top wall of the cabinet 1 without the need for crane lifting or forklift loading.

[0041] See Figure 2 A first mounting hole 11 is provided on the top wall of cabinet 1. The function of the first mounting hole 11 is to install a lifting ring 111, so as to facilitate the lifting of cabinet 1 by crane using a hook. See details. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As a specific example, in this embodiment, the side wall of the first mounting hole 11 is provided with an internal thread, and the lifting ring 111 has an external threaded rod. Thus, the lifting ring 111 can be threadedly mounted at the first mounting hole 11 to ensure the connection strength between the lifting ring 111 and the cabinet 1, preventing the lifting ring 111 from separating directly from the cabinet 1 due to the large weight of the cabinet 1 during hoisting. At the same time, the threaded fit between the lifting ring 111 and the first mounting hole 11 also allows the lifting ring 111 to be installed and removed from the first mounting hole 11.

[0042] See you again Figure 2 In this embodiment, a second mounting hole 12 is also provided on the top wall of the cabinet 1. The second mounting hole 12 and the first mounting hole 11 are spaced apart, but their positions are relatively close. See [link to documentation]. Figure 10 A fastening screw 121 can be installed at the second mounting hole 12 for connecting the top cover 2.

[0043] This embodiment of the charging pile has several different usage specifications, with the main difference being in the top cover 2. This embodiment demonstrates two different specifications of the top cover 2. See details. Figures 3-6 ,in, Figure 3 and Figure 4 The top cover shown is the first specification, 2. Figure 5 and Figure 6 The top cover shown is the second specification 2.

[0044] In this embodiment, regardless of whether the top cover 2 is of the first or second specification, a blind hole 21 is provided on the top cover 2. A rivet nut 211 is provided in the blind hole 21, and the rivet nut 211 can cooperate with the fastening screw 121 to fix the top cover 2 to the top wall of the cabinet 1. Correspondingly, when the number and relative position of the second mounting holes 12 are fixed, the number and relative position of the blind holes 21 are also fixed regardless of whether the top cover 2 is of the first or second specification, so as to ensure that the blind holes 21 and the second mounting holes 12 have a one-to-one correspondence.

[0045] Based on the specific structure of the charging pile in this embodiment, an installation method for the charging pile is adaptively provided, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0046] Step 101: See Figure 7 First, the lifting ring 111 is installed in the first mounting hole 11, and the fastening screw 121 has not yet been installed in the second mounting hole 12;

[0047] Step 102: See Figure 8 Pour the cement base 5, and simultaneously pre-embed bolts 51 on the cement base 5, combined with Figure 9 It can be seen that since the top wall of cabinet 1 has a lifting ring 111, cabinet 1 can be transferred to the cement base 5 and fixed by means of lifting hook;

[0048] Step 103: See Figure 10 After the cabinet 1 is transferred to the cement base 5, the lifting ring 111 is removed from the first mounting hole 11, and the fastening screw 121 is installed in the second mounting hole 12. The press-fit nut 211 is installed in the blind hole 21. Finally, the press-fit nut 211 and the corresponding fastening screw 121 are aligned to fix the top cover 2 to the top wall of the cabinet 1.

[0049] Based on the above installation process, it can be found that the charging pile provided in this embodiment has at least the following two advantages:

[0050] First, the cabinet 1 is the main body of the charging pile. After the lifting ring 111 is installed in the first mounting hole 11 on the top wall of the cabinet 1, the cabinet 1 can be hoisted using the lifting ring 111. The top cover 2, due to its small size and weight, can be conveniently installed on the top of the cabinet 1 without hoisting. In other words, the charging pile in this embodiment is adapted to be installed by hoisting.

[0051] Second, after the charging pile is installed, the top cover 2 is installed on the top of the cabinet 1 to allow the top of the charging pile to maintain a smooth arc surface design, and the top of the charging pile retains the function of preventing water accumulation.

[0052] The above installation method also has several advantages. For example, in step 102, since the fastening screw 121 has not yet been installed in the second mounting hole 12, although the distance between the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 is small, the hook on the lifting ring 111 will not be interfered with by the fastening screw 121. As another example, in step 103, during the assembly of the rivet nut 211 with the fastening screw 121, since the lifting ring 111 has been removed from the first mounting hole 11, although the distance between the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 is small, the top cover 2 will not interfere with the lifting ring 111. At the same time, the removed lifting ring 111 can be installed on other cabinets 1 for hoisting, ensuring that the lifting ring 111 is not idle or wasted, improving the utilization rate of the lifting ring 111, and indirectly reducing the installation cost of the charging pile.

[0053] In some other embodiments, as long as the top cover 2 does not interfere with the lifting ring 111, the lifting ring 111 may not need to be removed, thereby simplifying the installation process of the top cover 2. In these embodiments, the distance between the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 is relatively large. Therefore, the lifting ring 111 installed at the first mounting hole 11 will also maintain a large distance from the second mounting hole 12. During and after the installation of the top cover 2, the lifting ring 111 can avoid the top cover 2 based on this large distance.

[0054] See you again Figure 1 and Figure 2 It can be seen that after the top cover 2 is installed on the top wall of the cabinet 1, the top cover 2 covers the first mounting hole 11, thereby protecting and shielding the first mounting hole 11 to prevent the first mounting hole 11 from becoming blocked after long-term use of the charging pile, and reducing the corrosion of the internal threads on the side wall of the first mounting hole 11, ensuring the effectiveness of the internal threads, and ensuring that the first mounting hole 11 can be reinstalled with the lifting ring 111 in the future. For example, when it is necessary to dismantle the cabinet 1, the top cover 2 can be removed from the top wall of the cabinet 1 first, exposing the first mounting hole 11, and then the lifting ring 111 can be reinstalled at the first mounting hole 11 to allow the cabinet 1 to be removed from the cement base 5 by hoisting.

[0055] See Figures 1-6 Based on the shape of the top cover 2, the top wall of the cabinet 1 and the top cover 2 form a wiring cavity. A first wiring hole 13 is provided on the top wall of the cabinet 1, and a second wiring hole 22 is provided on the top cover 2. Both the first wiring hole 13 and the second wiring hole 22 connect to the wiring cavity. The charging pile also includes a cable 3 and an antenna 4. The cable 3 passes through the first wiring hole 13 and the second wiring hole 22. The lower end of the cable 3 is located inside the cabinet 1, and the upper end of the cable 3 is located outside the wiring cavity and connected to the antenna 4.

[0056] See details Figure 5 and Figure 6 For the top cover 2 of the second specification, a cable take-up device 23 is provided in the cable routing cavity, and the cable 3 can be wound on the cable take-up device 23 until the antenna 4 comes into contact with the top cover 2.

[0057] Preferably, the take-up reel 23 is mounted on the top cover 2 to avoid interference between the hook and the take-up reel 23 in step 102. As a specific example, a mounting plate 24 can also be provided inside the cable routing cavity, with the mounting plate 24 mounted on the top cover 2 and the take-up reel 23 mounted on the mounting plate 24. The take-up reel 23 is mounted on the top cover 2 via the mounting plate 24.

[0058] Based on the above structure, a cable protection pulley 25 is also provided inside the cable routing cavity. The cable protection pulley 25 is also mounted on the mounting plate 24 so that it can be mounted on the top cover 2 via the mounting plate 24. The cable 3 passes through the cable protection pulley 25, thereby avoiding the mounting plate 24 and keeping the mounting plate 24 and the cable 3 at a distance.

[0059] Further preferably, the top cover 2 is provided with an indicator light 26.

[0060] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0061] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
