TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of charging socket, especially the charging socket with novel temperature monitoring structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, new energy electric vehicles develop rapidly. Electric vehicles often use DC charging sockets or AC charging sockets with high power. When the socket is used, the temperature of the power terminal will rise rapidly. If the temperature is too high, the electronic components and cables connected to the socket will fail or burn. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the real-time temperature of the socket in operation within the safe temperature. At present, charging sockets often use built-in water dropper temperature sensors and heat-conducting silicone temperature sensors to detect temperature. The defects are as follows: first, the above-mentioned temperature sensors need complex structure and more associated parts for fixation, which is complex to assemble, consumes more working hours, and has low assembly efficiency, and requires high cost; second, the temperature detected by the above-mentioned sensor has actual deviation and hysteresis, and there is a risk of monitoring failure. SUMMARY

[0006] The one-shot injection substrate is provided with a plurality of mounting shaft holes and a plurality of detection grooves on the front end face. Each detection groove corresponds to a mounting shaft hole. The vertical wall of the detection groove is an ultrathin wall.
[0007] The plurality of heat-conducting sheets are integrally injection molded in the one-shot injection substrate. The lower end heat-conducting holes are exposed in the mounting shaft holes, and the upper end conducting ends are attached to the ultrathin wall.
[0008] The patch temperature sensors are welded to the rear end face of the PCBA board, and the gap is located in the detection groove.
[0009] The heat-conducting filling parts fill the detection grooves and wrap the patch temperature sensors.
[0010] The PCBA board is fixedly connected to the front end of the one-shot injection substrate and electrically connected to the control unit.
[0011] The power jack of the socket body is sleeved with the mounting shaft hole and the equal-diameter shaft sleeve heat-conducting hole. When the power jack is connected to the power terminal for charging, the heat-conducting sheet transmits the real-time temperature information to the patch temperature sensor, which is transmitted to the control unit through the PCBA board.
[0012] In some embodiments, the heat-conducting filling is a resilient heat-conducting material pre-filled in the detection groove, and the patch temperature sensor is pressed into and wrapped in the resilient heat-conducting material.
[0013] In some embodiments, the resilient heat-conducting material is a heat-conducting silicone grease.
[0014] In some embodiments, the detection groove is a rectangular groove, and the inner groove wall of the rectangular groove is an ultra-thin wall; the front end surface of the patch temperature sensor is attached to or connected to the inner groove wall with a small gap.
[0015] Or the thickness of the ultra-thin wall is 0-0.5mm.
[0016] In some embodiments, the lower end of the heat-conducting sheet is a ring body, and the upper end forms a conductive end in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid, and the center heat-conducting hole of the ring body is sleeved on the outer wall of the power jack.
[0017] In some embodiments, the upper end of the PCBA board is connected to a plurality of multi-hole signal jacks, and the hole end of the multi-hole signal jack is exposed outside the front mounting plate.
[0018] In some embodiments, when the charging socket is an alternating current socket, the power jack, the heat-conducting sheet, and the patch temperature sensor are four.
[0019] When the charging socket is a direct current socket, the power jack, the heat-conducting sheet, and the patch temperature sensor are two.
[0020] In some embodiments, the plurality of plug-in holes of the PCBA board are sleeved with the elastic pin columns at the front end of the one-time injection molded substrate.
[0021] Or the PCBA board is positioned in the positioning groove at the front end of the one-time injection molded substrate.
[0022] In some embodiments, the socket body includes a plurality of power jacks and a rear mounting plate and a front mounting plate connected by threads; the one-time injection molded substrate of the temperature monitoring part is detachably connected or secondarily injection molded in front of the front mounting plate; the power jack is fixedly connected to the front mounting plate, the temperature monitoring part, and the rear mounting plate.
[0023] In some embodiments, the receiving groove in the middle of the front side wall of the front mounting plate has the same contour size as the one-time injection molded substrate, and the one-time injection molded substrate is located in the receiving groove.
[0024] The advantages of this charging socket with a novel temperature monitoring structure are as follows: First, the temperature monitoring unit is assembled as a single unit, eliminating the need for manual assembly of individual components. This results in a simple structure, fewer related parts, a simplified assembly process, less labor time, higher assembly efficiency, and a significant reduction in overall cost. Second, the detection holes of the heat-conducting sheet and the power terminals are designed with equal-diameter bushings for contact, further improving detection accuracy and reducing data lag. Third, the heat-conducting sheet and the surface-mount temperature sensor achieve precise fit through the detection slot and are fully connected through the thermally conductive filler, with a small or even zero gap between them. This greatly reduces the difference between the real-time temperature of the power terminals and the actual temperature of the temperature sensor, resulting in high detection accuracy. Fourth, the surface-mount temperature sensor features high measurement accuracy, fast response speed, and convenient installation, further improving temperature detection accuracy and minimizing data lag.
