Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure generally relates to a linkage sliding door system, and more particularly to a linkage sliding door that can be used as part of an electrical measuring device. Background Technology

[0002] Various types of connectors exist for charging electric vehicles. The specific type of connector used can vary depending on the vehicle manufacturer, country, or type of current supplied. Electric Vehicle Power Supply Equipment (“EVSE”) (sometimes referred to as a “charging station” or “vehicle charger”) is used to supply electrical energy to charge the battery in an electric vehicle. EVSEs are inspected to ensure they are functioning correctly and delivering the energy reported as being delivered. Due to the diversity of available connectors, it is desirable for electrical measuring devices used to inspect EVSEs to offer multiple types of connectors on a single measuring device. Multiple connectors may be included on a common circuit, such that multiple connectors are simultaneously active. To protect the user of the electrical measuring device and the components of the circuit, it is desirable for the user to access only a single connector of the electrical measuring device at a time.

[0040] This document describes an implementation of a sliding door system including a first sliding door and a second sliding door. The sliding door system is configured such that only one of the first or second sliding doors can be in the open position. The sliding door in the open position obstructs the movement of the other sliding door, thereby preventing the other sliding door from opening. When implemented in an electrical measuring device as described herein, the first and second sliding doors (when in the open position) provide access to different electrical connections of the electrical measuring device.

[0041] In some embodiments, a first sliding door has a body positioned on a first plane. A second sliding door has a body positioned on a second plane. The second plane is different from the first plane. A tab of the second sliding door can extend from the body of the second sliding door to a degree such that the first plane extends through the tab of the second sliding door. In such an embodiment, when one of the first or second sliding doors is in the open position, the tab of the first sliding door can prevent the other of the first or second sliding doors from opening.

[0042] In some embodiments, the inner surface of the door system exterior includes at least one recess configured to receive a door locking component of a first sliding door or a second sliding door therein. The recess is configured to releasably lock the first sliding door or the second sliding door in an open or closed position.

[0043] In the following description, certain specific details are set forth to provide a thorough understanding of the various disclosed embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will recognize that embodiments can be practiced without one or more of these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and techniques associated with sliding door systems may not be shown or described in detail to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the description of the embodiments.

[0044] Throughout this specification, references to "an embodiment" or "an embodiment" mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment is included in at least one embodiment. Furthermore, the phrases "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" appearing in this specification do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment. Additionally, the particular features, structures, or characteristics described herein with respect to one or more embodiments may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more additional embodiments.

[0045] Figure 1 An electrical measuring device 100 configured, for example, to check EVSE is shown. The electrical measuring device 100 includes two electrical connections, each configured to receive a different type of electrical connection. For example, each electrical connection may be configured to receive any of a Type 1 connection, a Type 2 connection, a CCS Type 1 connection, a CCS Type 2 connection, a NACS connection, or any other type of electric vehicle charging connection. The two electrical connections may be included on a common circuit within the electrical measuring device 100, such that both connections are simultaneously active. However, during use of the electrical measuring device 100, only one electrical connection will be used. To protect the user of the electrical measuring device 100 and the device itself, a sliding door system 104 is implemented on the electrical measuring device 100, which limits access to at most one electrical connection at a time.

[0046] Figures 2 to 14 A sliding door system 104, separate from the electrical measuring device 100, is shown. The sliding door system 104 may include a first sliding door 108 and a second sliding door 112, both of which are located in... Figures 2 to 4Both are shown in the closed position. Each of the first sliding door 108 and the second sliding door 112 is configured to slide linearly between the open and closed positions. An advantage of the sliding door system 104 is that both the first sliding door 108 and the second sliding door 112 can be in the closed position simultaneously. When the sliding door is in the closed position, the closed sliding door defines proximity to its associated electrical connection (not shown).

[0047] The first sliding door 108 may include a body 116 positioned on a first plane 120. The first sliding door 108 may also include a tab 124 extending from the body 116. The tab 124 may be positioned on a distal end 128 of the body 116 relative to the longitudinal center 132 of the sliding door system 104.

[0048] The second sliding door 112 may include a body 136 positioned on a second plane 140. The second sliding door 112 may also include a tab 144 extending from the body 136. The tab 144 may be positioned on a distal end 148 of the body 136 relative to the longitudinal center 132 of the sliding door system 104.

[0049] The second plane 140 is a plane different from the first plane 120, such as Figure 3 A cross-sectional view of the sliding door system 104 is shown. In some embodiments, the first plane 120 and the second plane 140 may be parallel. In the example embodiment shown throughout the figures, the first plane 120 is above the second plane 140.

[0050] The tab 144 of the second sliding door 112 can extend from the body 136 of the second sliding door 112 to a certain extent, such that the first plane 120 extends through the tab 144 of the second sliding door 112.

[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the sliding door system 104 may further include an outer body 152 surrounding at least a portion of each of the first sliding door 108 and the second sliding door 112. The outer body 152 may include openings 153a, 153b (see...). Figure 3 When the corresponding sliding doors 108 and 112 are in the open position, the electrical connectors of the electrical measuring device 100 can be accessed through these openings. The openings 153a and 153b can be shaped to correspond to the corresponding electrical connectors.

[0052] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the outer body 152 may define at least one access space 155 (presented as a notch in some cases) configured to facilitate easier gripping of at least one of the tabs 124, 144. In some embodiments, the outer body 152 may include a spacer 154 located between the body 116 of the first sliding door 108 and the body 136 of the second sliding door 112 (see...). Figure 3 The spacer 154 can be configured to prevent the body 116 of the first sliding door 108 from contacting the body 136 of the second sliding door 112. The spacer 154 can be integrally formed with the outer body 152, or it can be a separate component. The spacer 154 can be a single piece or can include multiple pieces.

[0053] The outer body 152 may include a central limiting bar 156 extending laterally across the sliding door system 104. In some embodiments, the central limiting bar 156 may extend laterally at the longitudinal center 132 of the sliding door system 104. The plane 158 in which the central limiting bar 156 lies may intersect with at least one of the tabs 124 of the first sliding door 108 and the tabs 144 of the second sliding door 112.

[0054] The sliding door system 104 is configured such that when one of the first sliding door 108 or the second sliding door 112 is in the open position and the other of the first sliding door 108 or the second sliding door 112 is not in the open position (e.g., in the closed position), the sliding door not in the open position is prevented from opening. For example, Figures 5 to 7 A sliding door system 104 is shown in a state where the first sliding door 108 is in the open position and the second sliding door 112 is in the closed position. In this position, the first sliding door 108 obstructs the movement of the second sliding door 112, thereby preventing the second sliding door 112 from opening. Specifically, Figure 6 This illustrates how the movement of the tab 144 of the second sliding door 112 is prevented due to the positional interference or obstruction of the body 116 of the first sliding door 108. For example... Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in this position, the aperture 153a for the electrical connection associated with the first sliding door 108 is accessible.

[0055] Figures 8 to 10 Another example configuration is shown where the second sliding door 112 is in the open position and the first sliding door 108 is prevented from opening. In this position, the movement of the first sliding door 108 in the opening direction is restricted by the tab 144 of the second sliding door 112, as shown. Figure 9As shown most clearly, the movement of the body 116 of the first sliding door 108 in the opening direction is blocked by the tab 144 of the second sliding door 112. In this position, the aperture 153b for the electrical connection associated with the second sliding door 112 is accessible, as shown in the image. Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown.

[0056] The opening degree of each of the first sliding door 108 and the second sliding door 112 can be limited by a central limiting rod 156. In other words, when the first sliding door 108 or the second sliding door 112 is in the open position, the central limiting rod 156 can limit further opening movement of the first sliding door 108 or the second sliding door 112. This limitation can be achieved, for example, by the tabs 124, 144 of the respective sliding doors in the open position contacting the central limiting rod 156 when in the open position.

[0057] The sliding door system 104 may also include a releasable locking system configured to hold the first sliding door 108 and the second sliding door 112 in an open or closed position. For example, as Figure 11 As shown, the releasable locking system may include at least one notch 160 and a corresponding door locking component 164. At least one notch 160 may be provided on the inner surface 168 of the outer body 152. The at least one notch 160 may be configured to receive the door locking component 164 of either the first sliding door 108 or the second sliding door 112 therein.

[0058] The first set of 172 notches 160 can be located on the first plane 120, such that the first set of 172 notches 160 are coplanar with the main body 116 of the first sliding door 108. This notch 160 in... Figures 11 to 13 As shown, these figures are cross-sectional views taken on the first plane 120. The first set of 172 notches 160 can be configured to releasably lock (or retain) the first sliding door 108 in the open and / or closed positions.

[0059] The second set of 176 notches 160 can be located on the second plane 140, such that the second set of 176 notches 160 are coplanar with the main body 136 of the second sliding door 112. This notch 160 in... Figure 14 As shown in the figure, this is a cross-sectional view taken on the second plane 140. The second set of 176 notches 160 can be configured to releasably lock (or retain) the second sliding door 112 in the open and / or closed positions.

[0060] Figures 11 to 14A plurality of first 180 notches 160 are shown that can be positioned on a first longitudinal side 184 of the sliding door system 104, and a plurality of second 188 notches 160 are shown that can be positioned on a second longitudinal side 192 of the sliding door system 104. The second longitudinal side 192 of the sliding door system 104 is opposite to the first longitudinal side 184 of the sliding door system 104.

[0061] The first group of 172 notches 160 may include notches 160 from both a plurality of first 180 notches 160 and a plurality of second 188 notches 160, such as Figures 11 to 13 The first set of 172 notches 160 can be positioned on both the first longitudinal side 184 and the second longitudinal side 192. In such a configuration, the body 116 of the first sliding door 108 can be configured to be releasably locked to the outer body 152 on both the first longitudinal side 184 and the second longitudinal side 192 in either the open or closed position.

[0062] The second group of 176 notches 160 may include notches 160 from both the plurality of first 180 notches 160 and the plurality of second 188 notches 160, such as Figure 14 The most clearly shown is shown below. In other words, the second set of 176 notches 160 can be positioned on both the first longitudinal side 184 and the second longitudinal side 192. In such a configuration, the body 136 of the second sliding door 112 can be configured to be releasably locked to the outer body 152 on both the first longitudinal side 184 and the second longitudinal side 192 in either the open or closed position.

[0063] In some embodiments, each group of recesses 160 in the first group 172 and the second group 176 may include six recesses 160. Each group of recesses 172 and the second group 176 may include three recesses from a plurality of first recesses 180 and three recesses from a plurality of second recesses 188. The following description of the recesses 160 is described as part of the first group 172 recesses 160, but these teachings also apply to the second group 176 recesses 160. The first group 172 recesses 160 from the plurality of first recesses 180 may be evenly spaced from each other along the longitudinal length of the sliding door system 104. For example, in the embodiment shown throughout the figures, on each longitudinal side 184, 192, a first notch 160a is positioned adjacent to a first end 194 of the sliding door system 104, a second notch 160b is positioned at the longitudinal center 132 of the sliding door system 104, and a third notch 160c is positioned adjacent to a second end 196 of the sliding door system 104. The uniform spacing of the first set of 172 notches 160 allows the first sliding door 108 to be locked in the open or closed position, as will be described in further detail below.

[0064] The door locking components 164 of the first sliding door 108 and the second sliding door 112 can be configured as springs. For example... Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the door locking component 164 of the first sliding door 108 can be integrally formed as part of the main body 116 of the first sliding door 108. Similarly, as Figure 14 As shown, the door locking member 164 of the second sliding door 112 can be integrally formed as part of the body 136 of the second sliding door 112. For example, in the embodiment shown throughout the figures, the door locking member 164 is a curved extension offset from the body of the corresponding sliding door away from the body. When the corresponding sliding door is between the open and closed positions, the door locking member 164 can be compressed towards the corresponding body by the inner surface 168 of the outer body 152. The outward offset of the door locking member 164 therefore requires the application of additional force to move the corresponding sliding door from the open or closed position.

[0065] Door locking components 164 can be arranged to be received in recesses 160 when the respective sliding door to which the door locking component is a part is in a closed position and / or an open position. As can be seen in the embodiment shown, the first sliding door 108 and the second sliding door each include four door locking components 164, with two door locking components positioned on each longitudinal side of the respective sliding door 108, 112. The spacing of the door locking components 164 on the same side of the bodies 116, 136 is equal to the spacing between the two longitudinally separated recesses 160. Due to the equal spacing of the door locking components 164 and the recesses 160, a plurality of door locking components 164 of the sliding doors 108, 112 can be received in a corresponding number of recesses when in the open or closed position.

[0066] An example of the transformation of the first sliding door 108 from the closed position to the open position. Figures 11 to 13 As shown in [the image]. Figure 11 In the closed position, the first sliding door 108 is in the closed position. In the closed position, the door locking component 164 of the first sliding door 108 is received in the closed position recesses 160a and 160b in the first set of 172 recesses 160. Figure 12 A first sliding door 108 is shown during the transition from a closed position to an open position. During the transition, the door locking member 164 is not positioned in any of the recesses 160 of the first set of 172 recesses 160. Figure 12 In the middle, the door locking component 164 is compressed toward the body 116 of the first sliding door 108 and does not lock the first sliding door 108 in the proper position. Figure 13 A first sliding door 108 in the open position is shown, including a door locking member 164 of the first sliding door 108 being received in an open position recess 160b, 160c within a first set of 172 recesses 160. Figures 11 to 13As can be seen, an individual notch can serve as both a closed position notch and an open position notch, as is the case with notch 160b in the example shown in the figure.

[0067] Figure 14 A second sliding door 112 in the closed position is shown, wherein the door locking member 164 of the second sliding door is received in the closed position recesses 160a, 160b in the second set of recesses 176. Although the figures do not show the transition of the second sliding door 112 from the closed position to the open position, it should be understood that the door locking member 164 of the second sliding door 112 functions the same as the door locking member 164 of the first sliding door 108 during its transition.

[0068] The sliding door systems described herein are applicable to a variety of equipment or machinery, including equipment or machinery independent of electrical measuring devices. When only a single area, product, or connector can be accessed at a time, such sliding door systems provide improved access control to sensitive areas, products, or connectors within such equipment or machinery.
