Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric vehicle charger technology, specifically an electric vehicle charger with short-circuit protection function. Background Technology
[0002] Electric vehicle (EV) chargers are charging devices specifically designed for the batteries of electric bicycles. Chargers can be classified into two main categories based on whether they have a power frequency (50 Hz) transformer or not. Chargers for freight tricycles generally use chargers with a power frequency transformer, which are large, heavy, and consume a lot of electricity, but are reliable. Chargers for electric bicycles and electric motorcycles use so-called switching power supply chargers, which are energy-saving and highly efficient.
[0003] Existing electric vehicle chargers still have some shortcomings in use. When charging electric vehicles, outdoor charging is often encountered. In the event of sudden severe weather (rain), without protection for the charger, the internal circuit board and electronic components of the charger may come into direct contact with water, which may lead to short circuits. Short circuits can not only damage the charger itself, but also cause the power cord to overheat, which may lead to a fire, thus causing inconvenience to users. Therefore, there is a need to propose an electric vehicle charger with short circuit protection function. Utility Model Content

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the electric vehicle charger with short-circuit protection function;
[0014] 1. When encountering sudden severe weather while using an electric vehicle charger, rainwater enters the fixed box, causing the water-absorbing resin particles to quickly absorb water and expand. This causes the moving plate to press the moving conductive sheet against the fixed conductive sheet, making it conductive. This allows the motor to move the protective plate and seal it to the outside of the heat dissipation holes, thus preventing short circuits caused by water contact with the charger's internal electronic components. This prevents damage to the charger caused by short circuits, thereby increasing the short circuit protection function of the electric vehicle charger and extending its service life.
[0015] 2. The support plate facilitates raising the charger's operating height. When the charger is placed on the ground, the support plate can support it, preventing damp ground from affecting its normal operation. Additionally, the charging cable allows the charger to be hung on a vehicle, making it convenient to place the charger according to usage needs. This improves the flexibility of using electric vehicles and increases the practicality of the electric vehicle charger. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a battery charger with short-circuit protection, including a fixed shell 1. Both sides of the fixed shell 1 have heat dissipation holes 2, and a control component 3 is installed on one side of the fixed shell 1. The control component 3 includes a fixed box 31, and a fixing net 32 is fixedly connected to the inner top of the fixed box 31. The interior of the fixed box 31 is filled with water-absorbing resin particles 33, and a movable plate 34 is movably connected to the interior of the fixed box 31. The fixed box 31 is fixedly installed on the top of a battery box 41, and the battery box 41 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed shell 1. The fixing net 32 is symmetrically installed around the top of the fixed box 31, thus preventing rainwater from reaching the battery box. The absorbent resin particles 33 easily enter the fixed box 31, causing them to absorb water and expand, thereby improving the sensitivity of the control component 3 and the electric component 4. The absorbent resin particles 33 are located on the top of the movable plate 34, and a movable conductive sheet 35 is pressed onto the bottom of the movable plate 34. Connecting pieces 36 are fixedly connected to both sides of the movable conductive sheet 35, and a limiting post 37 is movablely connected inside the connecting piece 36. The limiting post 37 is fixedly connected to the top of the battery box 41, and a spring 38 is fixedly installed on the top of the battery box 41. A fixed conductive sheet 39 is attached to the bottom of the movable conductive sheet 35, and the spring 38 is fixedly installed on the connecting piece 36 and the battery box 41. Between 1 and 2, and the spring 38 is sleeved outside the limiting post 37, when the movable conductive sheet 35 is squeezed, the connecting piece 36 moves outside the limiting post 37, thereby facilitating the vertical limiting of the movable conductive sheet 35, and facilitating the accurate fitting of the movable conductive sheet 35 to the top of the fixed conductive sheet 39. After the water-absorbing resin particles 33 expand due to rainwater, if the charging is finished, the fixing net 32 can be removed and the water-absorbing resin particles 33 can be taken out and replaced with new water-absorbing resin particles 33. This structure is for emergency use, so the frequency of replacing the water-absorbing resin particles 33 will not be too high, thus meeting the needs of daily use. After the water-absorbing resin particles 33 are taken out, the elasticity of the spring 38 will cause the water-absorbing resin particles 33 to expand. The movable conductive plate 35 is reset upwards, thus facilitating the next use of the motor 42. The fixed conductive plate 39 is fixedly connected to the top of the battery box 41, and the fixed conductive plate 39 is vertically set at the bottom of the movable conductive plate 35. The top horizontal plane of the movable conductive plate 35 is higher than the top horizontal plane of the limiting post 37. The battery box 41 contains a battery and a circuit board. The circuit board controls the use of the motor 42. When the control component 3 triggers the use of the motor 42, the motor 42 moves the protective plate 52 to fit against the fixed shell 1 and then stops using it. After charging is completed, the user can manually reset the protective plate 52 to the outside, thus facilitating the next use of the electric component 4.
[0023] An electric component 4 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the control component 3. The electric component 4 includes a battery box 41, which is connected to a motor 42 via a connecting wire. One end of the output shaft of the motor 42 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 43. A gear 44 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 43, and a gear 45 meshes with one side of the gear 44. A rotating shaft 46 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the gear 45. A movable conductive plate 35 and a fixed conductive plate 39 are connected in series with the battery box 41 and the motor 42 via connecting wires, thereby enabling the movable conductive plate 35 and the fixed conductive plate 39 to... When the conductive sheet 39 is attached, it can drive the motor 42 for use. The top of the motor 42 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 2 48, and the mounting plate 2 48 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixed shell 1. The bottom of the fixed shell 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 1 47, and the rotating shaft 1 43 and the rotating shaft 2 46 are both rotatably installed between the mounting plate 1 47 and the mounting plate 2 48. The top of the gear 2 45 is provided with a protective component 5, which includes a rack 51. A protective plate 52 is fixedly connected to one side of the rack 51, and a limit strip 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the protective plate 52. 3. A waterproof strip 54 is fixedly connected to one side of the protective plate 52, and a fixing strip 55 is movably connected to the outer wall of the limiting strip 53. The fixing strip 55 is designed to limit the rack 51 and the limiting strip 53, thereby facilitating the horizontal movement of the protective plate 52. The protective components 5 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the fixed shell 1, and the two racks 51 are respectively meshed on the top of gear 1 44 and gear 2 45. The two racks 51 are staggered to avoid collision when they move inward. The racks 51 are movably connected to the fixing strip 55. Inside the fixed shell 1, a power cord 8 is fixedly connected to one side. Limiting strips 53 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the protective plate 52, and the limiting strips 53 are movably disposed inside the fixing strip 55. The fixing strip 55 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed shell 1. The protective plate 52 is horizontally disposed on one side of the heat dissipation hole 2, and the waterproof strip 54 is squeezed and disposed between the protective plate 52 and the fixed shell 1. Support plates 6 are symmetrically installed at the bottom of the fixed shell 1, and a hanging rope 7 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the support plate 6. The arrangement of the support plate 6 and the hanging rope 7 increases the placement method of the charger when in use.
[0024] Working principle: When using this electric vehicle charger with short-circuit protection, place the support plate 6 on the ground to support the fixed shell 1, or hang the fixed shell 1 on the electric vehicle using the hanging rope 7. In rainy weather, rainwater enters the fixed box 31 through the fixed net 32, causing the water-absorbing resin particles 33 to absorb water and expand rapidly. Since the moving plate 34 is located inside the fixed box 31, the expansion of the water-absorbing resin particles 33 pushes the moving plate 34 downward, causing the moving plate 34 to press the moving conductive sheet 35 downward, thus adhering the moving conductive sheet 35 to the fixed conductive sheet 3. At the top, the battery box 41 is connected to the motor 42 via the movable conductive plate 35 and the fixed conductive plate 39. The motor 42 then drives the rotating shaft 43 and the gear 44 to rotate, which in turn drives the gear 45 to rotate. The two racks 51 at the top move relative to each other, thereby moving the protective plate 52 toward the heat dissipation hole 2. This causes the protective plate 52 to fit and press against the outside of the fixed shell 1, thus sealing the protective plate 52 against the outside of the heat dissipation hole 2 and preventing rainwater from entering the fixed shell 1 through the heat dissipation hole 2, which could cause short circuits in the internal electronic components.
