Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of charging gun technology, specifically a locking structure for a charging gun. Background Technology

[0002] A charging pile is a charging device that provides energy replenishment for electric vehicles. Its function is similar to that of a gas pump in a gas station. It can be fixed to the ground or wall and installed in public buildings (public buildings, shopping malls, public parking lots, etc.) and residential parking lots or charging stations. It can charge various models of electric vehicles according to different voltage levels. The input end of the charging pile is directly connected to the AC power grid, and the output end of the charging pile is equipped with a charging gun for charging electric vehicles.

[0003] Currently, commercial charging stations are provided to different car owners, each with different usage habits and unfamiliarity with the structure of the charging stations. When unlocking the charging gun, car owners may not accurately control the direction and force of pressing the latch. If the latch of some charging stations is frequently tilted and pressed, it can easily cause misalignment of the internal structure of the latch, making it difficult for the internal elastic structure to return to its original position. This affects the sensitivity and stability of the locking, reduces the service life of the latch, and makes the locking of the charging gun unstable, causing the charging gun to fall off the charging station and be damaged. To address this, we have proposed a latch structure for charging guns. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a locking structure for a charging gun, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that if the locking mechanism of some charging piles is frequently tilted and pressed, the internal elastic structure is difficult to reset, thereby affecting the sensitivity and stability of the locking, making it easy for the charging gun to be unstable and causing the charging gun to fall off the charging pile and be damaged.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a locking structure for a charging gun, comprising a mounting plate, a placement seat, a charging gun, and a locking mechanism. The placement seat is connected to one side of the mounting plate, the charging gun is inserted into the interior of the placement seat, and the locking mechanism is connected to the outside of the charging gun. The locking mechanism includes a housing fixed to the outer wall of the charging gun. Sliding rods are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the inner cavity of the housing. A sliding plate slides along the outer wall of the sliding rods. A locking head is fixed to the bottom edge of the sliding plate. A compression spring is sleeved on the outer side of the sliding rods. A force-bearing block is fixed at the bottom center of the sliding plate. A connecting rod slides symmetrically through one side of the housing. A push plate is fixed to one end of the connecting rod, and a pressing block is fixed to the other end of the connecting rod. A tension spring is sleeved on the outer side of the connecting rod. A slot is provided at the top center of the placement seat.

[0006] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0007] The top end of the compression spring is fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the housing, and the bottom end of the compression spring is fixedly connected to the top of the slide plate.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] One end of the tension spring is fixedly connected to one side of the compression block, and the other end of the tension spring is fixedly connected to one side of the inner cavity of the outer shell.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] One side of the force-bearing block and one side of the extrusion block are provided with inclined surfaces, and the inclined surfaces of the force-bearing block and the extrusion block are in contact with each other.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] The placement base is provided with a positioning mechanism. The positioning mechanism includes mounting cavities symmetrically opened on the inner side wall of the placement base. A return spring is fixed in the middle of one side of the mounting cavity. A moving plate is fixed at one end of the return spring. A positioning block is fixed in the middle of one side of the moving plate. Positioning grooves are symmetrically opened on the outer end of the charging gun.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The movable plate slides inside the mounting cavity, and the outer side wall of the movable plate is in contact with the inner side wall of the mounting cavity.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] The end of the positioning block is provided with an arc surface, and the positioning groove is an arc-shaped groove.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. The locking structure used in this charging gun moves the connecting rod by pushing the push plate, which in turn moves the compression block, stretching the tension spring. The compression block then presses against the inclined surface of the force-bearing block, causing the force-bearing block to move, which in turn moves the sliding plate. The sliding plate rises and compresses the compression spring, while simultaneously causing the locking head to exit the slot and release the lock. This prevents tilting and pressing, prevents the internal elastic structure from failing to reset, and avoids unstable locking of the charging gun. It also prevents the charging gun from falling and being damaged, thus improving the practicality of the device.

[0020] 2. The locking structure used in this charging gun involves inserting the charging gun into the placement base and pressing the arc surface of the positioning block, causing the positioning block to retract into the mounting cavity. This moves the moving plate and presses the return spring. When the positioning block aligns with the positioning groove, the return spring resets the moving plate, causing the positioning block to return to its original position and embed itself in the positioning groove. This provides initial positioning and locking of the charging gun. The addition of this locking structure further enhances the stability of the locking mechanism, improves the practicality of the device, and prevents the charging gun from falling.

[0030] This utility model provides a locking structure for a charging gun, which avoids tilting and pressing, prevents the internal elastic structure from failing to reset, and ensures an unstable locking mechanism for the charging gun. This also prevents the charging gun from being damaged by drops, improving the practicality of the device. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 It includes a mounting plate 100, a placement base 200, a charging gun 300, and a locking mechanism 400;

[0031] Please refer to it again. Figure 1 The mounting plate 100 is used to mount the placement base 200, the charging gun 300, and the locking mechanism 400;

[0032] Please refer to it again. Figure 1 The placement base 200 is connected to one side of the mounting plate 100, the charging gun 300 is inserted into the inside of the placement base 200, and the locking mechanism 400 is connected to the outside of the charging gun 300.

[0033] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 The locking mechanism 400 includes a housing 410 fixed to the outer wall of the charging gun 300. Slide rods 420 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the inner cavity of the housing 410. A slide plate 430 slides on the outer wall of the slide rods 420. A locking head 431 is fixed on the bottom edge of the slide plate 430.

[0034] Please refer to it again. Figure 2A compression spring 440 is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod 420. A force-bearing block 450 is fixed in the middle of the bottom of the slide plate 430. A connecting rod 460 slides symmetrically through one side of the outer shell 410. A push plate 461 is fixed at one end of the connecting rod 460. A pressing block 470 is fixed at the other end of the connecting rod 460. A tension spring 480 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod 460.

[0035] Please refer to it again. Figure 3 A slot 490 is provided at the top center of the placement seat 200.

[0036] In summary, by pushing the push plate 461, the connecting rod 460 moves, causing the pressing block 470 to move, which in turn stretches the tension spring 480. The pressing block 470 then presses the inclined surface of the force-bearing block 450, causing the force-bearing block 450 to move. This, in turn, moves the sliding plate 430, causing it to rise and press the compression spring 440. Simultaneously, the locking head 431 exits the slot 490, releasing the lock. This prevents tilting and pressing, avoids the internal elastic structure from failing to reset, and prevents the charging gun 300 from becoming unstable. It also prevents the charging gun 300 from falling and being damaged, thus improving the practicality of the device.

[0037] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 The top end of the compression spring 440 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the housing 410, and the bottom end of the compression spring 440 is fixedly connected to the top of the slide plate 430.

[0038] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 One end of the tension spring 480 is fixedly connected to one side of the compression block 470, and the other end of the tension spring 480 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner cavity of the outer shell 410.

[0039] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 One side of the force-bearing block 450 and one side of the extrusion block 470 are provided with inclined surfaces, and the inclined surfaces of the force-bearing block 450 and the extrusion block 470 are in contact with each other.

[0040] Please refer to it again. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The placement base 200 is provided with a positioning mechanism 500. The positioning mechanism 500 includes mounting cavities 510 symmetrically opened on the inner side wall of the placement base 200. A return spring 520 is fixed in the middle of one side of the mounting cavity 510. A moving plate 530 is fixed at one end of the return spring 520. A positioning block 540 is fixed in the middle of one side of the moving plate 530. A positioning groove 550 is symmetrically opened on the outer end of the charging gun 300.

[0041] Please refer to it again. Figure 4 The movable plate 530 slides inside the mounting cavity 510, and the outer side wall of the movable plate 530 is in contact with the inner side wall of the mounting cavity 510.

[0042] Please refer to it again. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The end of the positioning block 540 is provided with an arc surface, and the positioning groove 550 is an arc-shaped groove.

[0043] In summary, by inserting the charging gun 300 into the placement base 200, the arc surface of the positioning block 540 is pressed, causing the positioning block 540 to retract into the mounting cavity 510. This drives the moving plate 530 to move, pressing the return spring 520. When the positioning block 540 aligns with the positioning groove 550, the return spring 520 resets the moving plate 530, causing the positioning block 540 to reset and embed itself in the positioning groove 550. This provides initial positioning and locking of the charging gun 300. The addition of a locking structure further enhances the stability of the locking, improves the practicality of the device, and prevents it from falling.

[0044] In practical use, when locking the charging gun 300, the person skilled in the art pushes the push plate 461, causing the connecting rod 460 to move, which in turn moves the pressing block 470, stretching the tension spring 480. The pressing block 470 then presses the inclined surface of the force-bearing block 450, causing the force-bearing block 450 to move, thereby moving the sliding plate 430. This causes the sliding plate 430 to rise, compressing the compression spring 440. As the sliding plate 430 rises, it also causes the locking head 431 to rise. Then, the charging gun 300 is inserted into the placement seat 200, pressing the arc surface of the positioning block 540, causing... The positioning block 540 retracts into the mounting cavity 510, causing the moving plate 530 to move and press the reset spring 520. When the positioning block 540 is aligned with the positioning groove 550, the reset of the reset spring 520 causes the moving plate 530 to reset, so that the positioning block 540 is embedded in the positioning groove 550, thereby initially positioning and locking the charging gun 300. The push plate 461 is loosened, and the reset of the compression spring 440 and the tension spring 480 causes the slide plate 430 and the pressing block 470 to reset, so that the card head 431 is embedded in the card slot 490, completing the locking.
