[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiments of the present application provide a PDU contactor arrangement mounting structure, which comprises a PDU box 1, a contactor 10 and a line-in floating terminal 3.
[0027] Specifically, the line-in floating terminal 3 is used to be electrically connected with an external power supply and electrically connected with a main copper bar inside the PDU box 1 outside the PDU box 1.
[0028] More specifically, the PDU box 1 has an inner cavity inside, and a plurality of main copper bars (11, 12) and a plurality of branch copper bars (13, 14) are arranged in the inner cavity. Each contactor 10 in the inner cavity is connected to a corresponding main copper bar through at least two branch copper bars, and the branch copper bars are connected to the contactor 10 in a detachable manner, so that the contactor can be individually disassembled and replaced without affecting the main copper bar, avoiding the disassembly of multiple copper bars (reducing maintenance difficulty), and reducing the maintenance workload.
[0029] It should be noted that the main copper bar is the main power supply, which connects the incoming line floating terminal and the branch copper bar to transmit high-power electric energy. In addition, the branch copper bar distributes the electric energy of the main copper bar to each contactor to drive the subsequent equipment. The contactor 10 mainly controls the on-off of power and completes the power management task.
[0030] When the entire PDU contactor arrangement installation structure is working, after the external power supply is connected to the incoming line floating terminal 3, the current is distributed to each branch copper bar through the main copper bar, and then supplied to the contactor 10. When the contactor 10 is turned on, the electric energy is transmitted to the target device; when the contactor is turned off, the current is cut off to ensure safety. The design of the detachable branch copper bar makes it only need to disassemble the branch copper bar to take out and replace the corresponding contactor when replacing the contactor, avoiding the disassembly of other main bars, saving time and labor cost, and greatly improving the maintenance efficiency of the PDU.
[0031] It can be seen that the embodiment optimizes the connection mode of the main copper bar, the branch copper bar and the contactor to improve the flexibility of the electrical connection inside the PDU. At the same time, based on the detachable design of the branch copper bar, the maintenance of the contactor is more convenient.
[0032] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, the branch copper bar is connected to the contactor through a first detachable fixing member 31.
[0033] Specifically, the detachable connection mode between the branch copper bar and the contactor is realized through the first detachable fixing member 31 to optimize the power distribution inside the PDU.

The first detachable fixing member can be at least one of a bolt, a screw and a buckle to meet the needs of different installation modes.
[0034] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, the plurality of main copper bars includes a plurality of first main copper bars 11 and a plurality of second main copper bars 12, the plurality of first main copper bars 11 are arranged in parallel, and the plurality of second main copper bars 12 are arranged in parallel, and the plurality of first main copper bars 11 and the plurality of second main copper bars 12 are arranged in a grid staggered manner in the inner cavity.
[0035] Specifically, the embodiment introduces the first main copper bar 11 and the second main copper bar 12 inside the PDU and arranges them in a grid staggered manner to realize multi-channel current transmission. Compared with the traditional single-layer copper bar, this structure can effectively improve the utilization of space, further improve the electrical conductivity, and optimize the heat dissipation capacity.
[0036] In addition, the angle between the first main copper bar and the second main copper bar adjacent thereto is 90 degrees. That is, the main copper bars in the adjacent relationship are arranged at an angle of 90 degrees, which optimizes the current path and improves the electrical performance and structural stability of the PDU.
[0037] It should be noted that the angle can be optional, and the angle between the main copper bars can be adjusted to adapt to different current distribution requirements and space layouts according to specific application requirements.
[0038] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, the plurality of main copper bars and the plurality of branch copper bars are arranged in an up-down distribution in the height direction of the inner cavity.
[0039] Specifically, the plurality of main copper bars and the plurality of branch copper bars are arranged in an up-down distribution in the height direction of the inner cavity, which makes the electrical connection inside the PDU more three-dimensional, improves the balance of current distribution, and optimizes heat dissipation and space utilization. In combination with the above embodiment, the copper bar structure of the present embodiment adopts a grid staggered and vertically layered arrangement, which enhances the electrical conductivity while improving the heat dissipation performance and optimizing the internal space layout of the PDU.
[0040] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, each branch copper bar (for example, the first branch copper bar 13 and the second branch copper bar 14) is connected to the main copper bar (11, 12) through a second detachable fixing member 32.
[0041] Specifically, since the second detachable fixing member 32 is used to realize the detachable connection between the branch copper bars (13, 14) and the main copper bars (11, 12), the entire PDU power distribution structure is more flexible and efficient, and is convenient for maintenance and replacement. In order to adapt to different installation requirements, the second detachable fixing member can be at least one of a bolt, a screw, and a buckle to provide stable and reliable connection and support quick disassembly and assembly.
[0042] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, a direct current output copper bar 4 is arranged outside the PDU box, the direct current output copper bar 4 is electrically connected to the contactor in the inner cavity, and is used to transmit direct current passing through the contactor to an external device to meet the direct current power supply requirement of the external device.
[0043] In an optional embodiment of the present embodiment, a heat dissipation channel can also be arranged on the PDU box, which can promote air circulation and improve heat dissipation efficiency, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the PDU in a high-load environment.
[0044] The embodiment also provides a charging pile, comprising a charging pile body and the PDU contactor arrangement mounting structure as described above.
[0045] The PDU contactor arrangement mounting structure and the charging pile have the following advantages: on the one hand, the detachable connection design of the branch copper bar and the contactor can be used to individually disassemble and replace the contactor without affecting the main copper bar, thereby avoiding disassembling multiple copper bars (reducing the maintenance difficulty) and reducing the maintenance workload; on the other hand, the modular design is used to assemble the PDU outside the cabinet first, and then realize the quick docking with the cabinet through the incoming line floating terminal, thereby reducing the on-site assembly time and improving the production efficiency; in addition, the PDU box body is integrated with multiple main copper bars and contactors, the device layout is optimized, the PDU structure is more compact, the occupied space is reduced, and the assembly convenience is improved.
[0046] Meanwhile, the utility model still has the following beneficial effects: through the PDU compact staggered design, the PDU internal contactor and copper bar are arranged in a staggered manner, the incoming line side adopts a special floating terminal, the internal contactor is independently coded, the copper bar optimization design is used to ensure that only two copper bar connecting bolts need to be disassembled when replacing the contactor, and one person can quickly replace the faulty contactor through single operation, thereby improving the contactor replacement and maintenance performance.
[0047] The specific embodiments of the utility model are described in detail above, but they are only examples, and the utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. Any equivalent modification or replacement of the utility model made by those skilled in the art is also within the scope of the utility model, and therefore, equivalent transformation, modification, improvement, etc. made without departing from the spirit and principle range of the utility model should be covered in the scope of the utility model.
