Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of integrated parking and charging equipment, and more specifically, to a guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid growth of motor vehicle ownership, users' demand for parking and charging is also increasing. Currently, parking lots are divided into charging stations and parking lots. Charging stations often have long queues and cannot be used for extended periods. Parking lots are expensive and do not provide one charging station per person, making charging inconvenient. However, many cities have planned a large number of roadside parking areas, where electricity prices are lower at night. But vehicles in residential areas and surrounding areas cannot charge in these roadside parking areas. Based on this, some manufacturers have developed charging piles that integrate parking and charging functions. However, when these charging piles are installed in roadside parking areas, some car owners often park beyond the parking space boundaries for convenience, even encroaching on driving lanes.

[0003] The above shortcomings need to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device, which can provide guardrails for parking spaces to restrict the position of vehicles, thereby preventing car owners from parking arbitrarily when charging.

[0005] The integrated parking and charging device with guardrail provided by this utility model includes a main body and an identification component, a charging component, and a control component disposed within the main body; the identification component is used for vehicle parking identification and detection; the charging component is used for charging electrical equipment; the control component is electrically connected to both the identification component and the charging component; a first fixed crossbeam and a second fixed crossbeam are also provided between the two ends of the main body, and guardrails are installed on the first fixed crossbeam and the second fixed crossbeam, and the guardrails, the first fixed crossbeam, the second fixed crossbeam, and the main body form a guardrail frame.

[0006] Compared with the prior art, the guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device provided by this utility model integrates vehicle parking identification and charging in a parking space by setting an identification component, a charging component, and a control component in the main body. Furthermore, by setting a first fixed crossbeam and a second fixed crossbeam between the two ends of the main body, and installing guardrails on the first fixed crossbeam and the second fixed crossbeam, the guardrails, the first fixed crossbeam, the second fixed crossbeam, and the main body together form a guardrail frame. Therefore, it can provide a hard constraint on roadside parking spaces, prevent vehicles from exceeding the parking space line when parking and charging, and reduce congestion caused by random parking.

[0007] Specifically, both the first and second fixed crossbeams are connected to the main body at one end and extend away from the main body at the other end, and are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the main body. This arrangement makes the structure of the guardrail frame formed by the guardrail, the first fixed crossbeam, the second fixed crossbeam, and the main body more stable.

[0008] Specifically, the charging component includes an interactive display screen for indicating the charging status, a charging socket, and a charging pile for charging vehicles. Both the charging socket and the charging pile are electrically connected to the interactive display screen. By providing the charging socket and the charging pile, the guardrail-style parking charging integrated device can charge not only vehicles but also two-wheeled vehicles or other electrical equipment, thus enriching its usage scenarios.

[0009] Specifically, the recognition component includes a camera for identifying the vehicle's parking position and a supplementary light source. This configuration enhances ambient brightness when needed, making the camera's recognition more accurate and improving reliability.

[0010] Specifically, the guardrail-style parking and charging integrated device also includes an alarm component. This alarm component includes a microphone for collecting user voice, a speaker for playing audio, an alarm call button, and an alarm control chip. The microphone, speaker, and alarm call button are all electrically connected to the alarm control chip. This design facilitates users in calling for help in emergency situations.

[0011] Specifically, the main body includes an upper body and a lower body, which are connected and fixed together. This arrangement facilitates the disassembly, assembly, and transportation of the main body.

[0012] Specifically, the lower body is further provided with a base at the end away from the upper body. This arrangement improves the stability of the lower body, thereby reducing the possibility of it tipping over.

[0013] Specifically, the guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device also includes a tilt sensor, which is disposed within the main body and used to detect the tilt angle of the main body. This design allows the guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device to quickly cut off power supply when it has a tendency to tip over, improving safety during use.

[0014] Specifically, the guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device also includes a water intrusion sensor. The water intrusion sensor is located at a preset height within the main body and is electrically connected to the control component to detect water intrusion at that preset height. This design allows the guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device to immediately cut off power supply once the main body is submerged to the preset height, improving safety during use.

[0015] Specifically, the guardrail-type parking charging integrated device also includes a power supply component, which is connected to an external power source and is electrically connected to the charging component. Attached Figure Description

[0022] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The integrated parking and charging device 100 provided by this utility model includes a main body 1 and an identification component (not shown in the figure), a charging component (not shown in the figure), a control component (not shown in the figure), and a power supply component 2 disposed within the main body 1. The identification component is used for vehicle parking identification and detection. The charging component is used for charging electrical equipment. Both the identification component and the charging component are electrically connected to the control component. Specifically, the control component includes a first control component (not shown in the figure) and a second control component (not shown in the figure). The first control component is electrically connected to the charging component, and the second control component is electrically connected to the identification component. The first control component and the second control component are also communicatively connected. Both the first control component and the second control component are integrated on a circuit board. Therefore, the first control component and the second control component use existing integrated circuit boards, and their working principles will not be described in detail here. The power supply component 2 is connected to an external power source and is electrically connected to the charging component.

[0023] A first fixed crossbeam 3 and a second fixed crossbeam 4 are provided between the two ends of the main body 1. Guardrails 5 are installed on the first fixed crossbeam 3 and the second fixed crossbeam 4. The guardrails 5, the first fixed crossbeam 3, the second fixed crossbeam 4, and the main body 1 form a guardrail frame. In this embodiment, the main body 1 is modified from the main post of an urban road guardrail to save on mold opening costs. One end of the first fixed crossbeam 3 is connected to the main body 1 via a first connector 31, and the first fixed crossbeam 3 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the main body 1. Similarly, one end of the second fixed crossbeam 4 is connected to the main body 1 via a second connector 41, and the second fixed crossbeam 4 is also symmetrically arranged on both sides of the main body 1. The guardrail 5 is inverted "U" shape, and the lower end of the guardrail 5 is connected and fixed to the second fixed crossbeam 4. The two ends of the guardrail 5 are also connected and fixed to the first fixed crossbeam 3. There are multiple guardrails 5, which are arranged at intervals on the second fixed crossbeam 4. This segmented design makes the guardrail-style integrated parking and charging device 100 more compact and rationally laid out. In this embodiment, there is only one main body 1, which results in a small overall footprint for the guardrail-style integrated parking and charging device 100, making it easy to assemble and disassemble and highly flexible in use. Of course, there can also be multiple main bodies 1, in which case the guardrail-style integrated parking and charging device 100 will have a larger overall footprint, suitable for large-area centralized use and convenient for unified wiring.

[0024] More specifically, the main body 1 includes an upper body 11 and a lower body 12, which are fixed together and reinforced with fasteners 13 at their joint. This arrangement facilitates the disassembly, assembly, and transportation of the main body 1. To facilitate the laying and protection of the power supply cable 200, the second fixed beam 4 has a hollow structure, and the cable 200 is housed within its cavity. It should be noted that when there is only one main body 1, one cable 200 is laid within the second fixed beam 4; when there are multiple main bodies 1, the number of cables 200 increases accordingly. To improve the stability of the lower body 12 and reduce the possibility of it tipping over, a base 121 is provided at the end of the lower body 12 furthest from the upper body 11. Furthermore, for manual power disconnection in emergencies, a power disconnection assembly (not shown in the figure) is provided within the main body 1, which is electrically connected to the power supply assembly 2. The power cut-off assembly includes an emergency stop button 300, which protrudes from the outer surface of the main body 1. In an emergency, pressing the emergency stop button 300 activates the power cut-off assembly, disconnects the power supply assembly 2 from the external power source, and de-energizes the guardrail-type parking and charging integrated device 100.

[0025] Further, please refer to Figure 1To facilitate indication of the working status, a top cap 14 is provided at the top of the main body 1. A working status indicator light 6 is installed inside the top cap 14 and is electrically connected to the control components. Specifically, the working status indicator light 6 can switch between red, green, and yellow. When the guardrail-type parking charging integrated device 100 is working, the working status indicator light 6 illuminates red. When the guardrail-type parking charging integrated device 100 is in an idle state or has completed its work, the working status indicator light 6 illuminates green. When the guardrail-type parking charging integrated device 100 is malfunctioning, the working status indicator light 6 illuminates yellow.

[0026] Further, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The charging assembly includes an interactive display screen 7 for indicating the charging status, a charging socket 71, and a charging pile base 72 for charging vehicles. Both the charging socket 71 and the charging pile base 72 are electrically connected to the interactive display screen 7, and all three are exposed on the surface of the main body 1. By providing the charging socket 71 and the charging pile base 72, the guardrail-type parking charging integrated device 100 can charge both vehicles and two-wheeled vehicles or other electrical equipment, enriching its usage scenarios. Specifically, the charging socket 71 is a 220V socket, and it has a rotatable protective cover 711 to prevent debris or liquid from entering. The charging pile base 72 is a single vehicle charging pile base. In this embodiment, there are two charging pile bases 72, arranged opposite each other on the surface of the main body 1. The interactive display screen 7 can display the Chinese characters "Charging in" or "Idle" to further indicate the working status. In this way, the working status indicator light 6 and the interactive display screen 7 independently display the working status, improving the reliability of use. It should be noted that the interactive display screen 7, the charging socket 71, and the charging pile base 72 can all use existing components that meet the usage requirements.

[0027] Further, please refer to Figure 1 The recognition component includes a camera 8 for identifying the parking position of a vehicle and a supplementary light 81 for providing additional light. The camera 8 is disposed on the surface of the main body 1, and the supplementary light 81 is disposed in the center of the surface of the main body 1. By placing the supplementary light 81 in the center of the main body 1, the ambient brightness can be enhanced, making the recognition by the camera 8 more accurate and improving the reliability of use. Specifically, in order to make the vehicle parking recognition more accurate, supplementary lights 81 are provided on both sides of the main body 1, so that the light source covers the vehicle body at as many angles as possible to facilitate recognition and positioning.

[0028] Further, please refer to Figure 1To facilitate emergency calls for help, the guardrail-type parking and charging integrated device 100 also includes an alarm component (not shown in the figure). This alarm component includes a microphone 9 for collecting the user's voice, a speaker 91 for playing audio, an alarm call button 92, and an alarm control chip (not shown in the figure). The microphone 9, speaker 91, and alarm call button 92 are all electrically connected to the alarm control chip, and all three are located on the surface of the main body 1. When the alarm call button 92 is pressed, the microphone 9 begins to collect the user's voice signal and transmits it to the alarm control chip. The alarm control chip processes the voice signal and sends it to the alarm center. After the staff at the alarm center responds, their voice signal is first transmitted to the alarm control chip for decoding, and then their voice is emitted from the speaker 91. It should be noted that existing components that meet the usage requirements can be used for the microphone 9, speaker 91, alarm call button 92, and alarm control chip; their working principles will not be elaborated here.

[0029] Further, please refer to Figure 1 To improve safety, the guardrail-type parking charging integrated device 100 also includes a tilt sensor 101, which is located within the main body 1 and detects the tilt angle of the main body 1. The tilt sensor 101 can send an electrical signal to the control component based on the tilt angle of the main body 1 to cut off the power supply. In this embodiment, an existing sensor that meets the usage requirements can be used for the tilt sensor 101, and its working principle will not be described in detail here.

[0030] Further, please refer to Figure 1 To ensure the safety of the integrated parking and charging device 100, which is a guardrail-type parking system, the power supply to the main body 1 is immediately cut off after the main body 1 is submerged in water to a preset height. The device also includes a water intrusion sensor 102. The water intrusion sensor 102 is positioned at a preset height within the main body 1 and electrically connected to the control component. It detects water intrusion at the preset height within the main body 1. When the water intrusion sensor 102 detects water intrusion at this height, it sends an electrical signal to the control component, causing the power supply component 2 to disconnect from the external power source. Similarly, any existing sensor that meets the requirements can be used for the water intrusion sensor 102; its working principle will not be elaborated here.

[0031] The following is a description of the working principle of the guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device 100 of this utility model. When a user needs to park and charge in a roadside parking area, the camera 8 identifies and locates the vehicle. When the surrounding environment is dark, the supplementary light 81 will automatically turn on to assist in accurate identification. After parking identification is completed, the user can charge the vehicle through the charging socket 71 or charging pile 72 set on the main body 1. When the vehicle is charging, the interactive display screen 7 will display the Chinese characters "Charging in progress," and at the same time, the working status indicator 6 inside the top cap 14 will light up red. When charging is complete, the interactive display screen 7 will display the Chinese characters "Idle in progress," and at the same time, the working status indicator 6 inside the top cap 14 will light up green. It should be noted that the interactive display screen 7 and the working status indicator 6 are both controlled by existing software, and their working principle will not be described in detail here. At this time, the user can remove the vehicle's charging equipment from the main body 1, and then the user can drive the vehicle away or continue to park the vehicle in the same place.

[0032] Compared with existing technologies, the guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device 100 provided by this utility model integrates vehicle parking recognition and charging within a parking space by setting an identification component, a charging component, and a control component within the main body 1. Furthermore, by setting a first fixed crossbeam 3 and a second fixed crossbeam 4 between the two ends of the main body 1, and installing guardrails 5 on the first fixed crossbeam 3 and the second fixed crossbeam 4, the guardrails 5, the first fixed crossbeam 3, the second fixed crossbeam 4, and the main body 1 together form a guardrail frame, thus providing a rigid constraint on roadside parking spaces and preventing vehicles from exceeding the parking space lines while parking and charging, thereby reducing congestion caused by haphazard parking. In addition, the guardrail-type integrated parking and charging device 100 provided by this utility model can be modified from existing road guardrails, saving costs and offering high functional integration, achieving intelligent operation while also being practical and aesthetically pleasing.

[0033] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
