Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle charging equipment, and in particular to a voice-prompt vehicle charger. Background Technology
[0002] As an on-board power conversion device, the core function of a vehicle charger is to obtain power from the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket and provide charging services for mobile terminal devices (such as smartphones and tablets). For example, many ride-hailing vehicles have low configurations, with insufficient rear charging ports, making it difficult for passengers to recharge their devices. Furthermore, the proportion of passengers carrying charging equipment on short trips is relatively low, highlighting the urgent need for standardized power supply facilities to improve the service experience. When on-board chargers are used in ride-hailing vehicles, they can provide charging services for passengers' mobile phones, effectively reducing passengers' battery anxiety.
[0003] When on-board chargers are used in ride-hailing vehicles, for the convenience of passengers, the charger body is generally located near the rear seats, such as behind the headrests of a row of seats. One end of the charger body is connected to the vehicle's cigarette lighter to draw power, and the other end is equipped with a charging cable to provide charging for passengers.
[0004] However, traditional car chargers cannot sense whether there are passengers in the vehicle. Even when there are no passengers and the charger is in an unloaded state, it still maintains full power operation, resulting in excessive static power consumption (typical value > 0.5W), which wastes the vehicle's power resources. In addition, traditional car chargers do not have a notification function. First, passengers may not know that they can charge their cars with this car charger. Second, after charging with this car charger, there are intermittent situations where passengers forget to take their phones when they get off the car, requiring extra effort to find or return the phones, which seriously affects the user experience.
[0005] Therefore, how to provide a voice-prompt-based vehicle charger that reduces power consumption and improves user experience has become a pressing technical problem. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a voice prompt-type vehicle charger, which reduces the power consumption of the vehicle charger and improves the user experience of the vehicle charger.

[0031] Two USB-A ports are located on the top of the power-generating housing and are connected to the output of the DC-DC module.
[0032] Furthermore, the two USB-A ports are arranged in parallel.
[0033] Furthermore, the vehicle mount includes:
[0034] A support plate has four symmetrically arranged limiting parts on the front that match the charging module, and a ball head seat on the back.

Detailed Implementation
[0062] This utility model embodiment provides a voice-prompt car charger 100, which solves the technical problems of existing car chargers failing to sense the presence of passengers in the vehicle, maintaining full power operation even when the charger is unloaded, resulting in excessive static power consumption; and traditional car chargers lacking prompt functions, which means passengers may not know they can charge their phones, and passengers may forget to take their phones when they get off the vehicle, seriously affecting the user experience. This embodiment significantly reduces the power consumption of the car charger and greatly improves the user experience.
[0063] The technical solution in this embodiment of the utility model is to solve the above problems. The general idea is as follows: By setting up a speaker 44 and a human body sensor 45 and connecting them to the charging motherboard 43, when the charging motherboard 43 detects the presence of a passenger through the human body sensor 45, it prompts the passenger to use the device through the speaker 44. When the passenger suddenly fails to detect the passenger while using the vehicle charger 100 for charging, it prompts the driver through the speaker 44 that a mobile phone has been left behind. When the human body sensor 45 does not detect a passenger and is not charging, it enters a low-power mode, thereby reducing the power consumption of the vehicle charger 100 and improving the user experience of the vehicle charger 100.
