Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to electric automobile charging technical field especially, relates to a direct current charging seat low pressure module and including direct current charging seat low pressure module's direct current charging seat. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the prior art, the PE terminal (or called ground protection terminal) and A-terminal (or called low-voltage auxiliary power negative terminal) in the direct current charging seat are respectively single-wired, which will cause the PE terminal and A-terminal not to be common ground, that is, the PE terminal and A-terminal are not electrically interconnected together and grounded together. Therefore, in actual application, sometimes because the PE terminal and A-terminal are not common ground, there is a large voltage difference between the direct current charging seat and the direct current charging gun when they are matched, which will cause a large current in the low-voltage auxiliary circuit connected with the A+ terminal or A-terminal of the direct current charging seat, which is easy to cause the low-voltage auxiliary circuit to be burned out.
[0003] In addition, in the prior art, in order to improve the charging speed of new energy electric vehicles, it is necessary to increase the charging current, and at present the charging current is as high as 600A, and in the future it will even be increased to 1000A. When a large current flows through the power terminal of the direct current charging seat, a large amount of heat will be generated, which will cause the temperature of the power terminal of the direct current charging seat to rise sharply, and if the temperature rise cannot be controlled in time, it will cause safety accidents, for example, the direct current charging seat or other electrical equipment will be burned out.
[0004] In the prior art, in order to control the temperature rise of the power terminal, a lead frame is usually arranged in the direct current charging seat, and the direct current charging seat low pressure module is integrated on the lead frame. The direct current charging seat low pressure module includes a temperature sensor and a heat-conducting pad wrapped outside the temperature sensor. The heat-conducting pad is in thermal contact with the power terminal, and the temperature sensor is electrically connected with the lead frame. However, in the prior art, the lead frame is relatively large in size, and needs to be pre-installed in the charging seat shell, which is very inconvenient to use. In addition, in the prior art, in order to facilitate the installation of the lead frame, the charging seat shell needs to be designed in a split type, which leads to a complex structure of the charging seat shell. In addition, the existing lead frame needs to be able to rotate between a locking position for locking the power terminal and an unlocking position for unlocking the power terminal, which will cause the lead frame and the charging seat shell to be more complex, more difficult to assemble, and higher in cost.
