Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery pack charging base technology, specifically a power tool battery pack charging base. Background Technology

[0002] Handheld power tools are typically equipped with rechargeable battery packs for power supply. The power tool battery pack charging socket is a device used to charge the power tool battery pack. It uses a slot with conductive inserts on the top to connect to the battery pack. The end of the conductive inserts away from the slot is electrically connected to the circuit board through a set of wires, thereby realizing the charging function of the battery pack.

[0003] Some existing power tool battery pack charging bases have a relatively simple structure. The conductive pin group fixed to one side of the slot is directly exposed on the upper side of the battery pack charging base. The conductive pin group lacks a protective mechanism. When the user carries the battery pack charging base out, the conductive pin group may collide with other objects and be damaged. When the battery pack charging base is plugged in, there is a risk of accidental contact and leakage of the exposed conductive pin group when the power tool is not charging. Therefore, a power tool battery pack charging base is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0025] Please see Figure 1-8 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] A power tool battery pack charging base includes a housing assembly 1, a charging assembly 2, a limiting assembly 3, and a protective assembly 4. The housing assembly 1 includes a lower housing 11, with two first mounting plates 12 fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the lower housing 11. An upper housing 13 is bolted to the upper side of the lower housing 11, and a limiting seat 14 is fixedly connected to the upper groove of the upper housing 13. The limiting assembly 3 is provided inside the housing assembly 1. The limiting assembly 3 includes two first mounting blocks 31 fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the lower housing 11. A first sliding shaft 32 is fixedly connected to the upper side of each first mounting block 31. The sliding connection has a limiting protrusion shell 33. The outer side of the first sliding shaft 32 is fitted with a first compression spring 34. The outer shell assembly 1 has a protective assembly 4 inside. The protective assembly 4 includes a second mounting plate 41 that is fixedly connected to the inner rear end of the upper shell 13 of the charging base. The front of the second mounting plate 41 is provided with two second mounting blocks 42. The rear side of the second mounting blocks 42 is fixedly connected with a second sliding shaft 43 that is fixedly connected to the second mounting plate 41. The outer side of the second sliding shaft 43 is slidably connected with a sliding plate 44. The front side of the sliding plate 44 is fixedly connected with a protective seat 45 that is slidably connected to the limiting seat 14. The outer side of the second sliding shaft 43 is fitted with a second compression spring 46.

[0027] The housing assembly 1 houses a charging assembly 2, which includes a circuit board 21 bolted to the first mounting plate 12. A conductive insert group 22 is mounted on the upper side of the circuit board 21. The conductive insert group 22 allows the power tool to be electrically connected to the circuit board 21 for charging. The conductive insert group 22 is electrically connected to the circuit board 21 and passes through the rear opening of the upper groove of the charging base housing 13. The conductive insert group 22 also passes through a through slot between the sliding plate 44 and the protective seat 45, which protects the conductive insert group 22. A limiting protrusion 33 passes through the lower opening of the upper groove of the charging base housing 13 and... The opening slot of the limiting seat 14 and the lower end of the first compression spring 34 are fixedly connected to the first mounting block 31, and the upper end of the first compression spring 34 are fixedly connected to the limiting protrusion shell 33. The power tool is limited by the limiting seat 14 and the limiting protrusion shell 33. The rear end of the second compression spring 46 is fixedly connected to the second mounting plate 41, and the front end of the second compression spring 46 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 44. The sliding plate 44 and the protective seat 45 are both provided with a set of through slots in the front and rear directions. The protective seat 45 can prevent the conductive plug group 22 from being damaged by collision, and at the same time prevent the conductive plug group 22 from being exposed after the device is powered on, causing accidental contact or leakage.

[0028] Workflow: The device is equipped with a plug electrically connected to the circuit board 21. Before use, the device is placed in a suitable position and connected to AC power via the plug. The circuit board 21 of the device contains the electrical components required for charging; all of the above are existing technologies. When using the device, the operator can pick up the device with one hand and hold a power tool with the other, placing the power tool on the upper side of the first mounting block 31. By pressing down on the limiting protrusion 33 with the base of the power tool, the limiting protrusion 33 moves downward along the first sliding shaft 32 fixed by the first mounting block 31, compressing the first compression spring 34. When the limiting protrusion 33 is completely retracted into the upper housing 13 of the charging base, the base of the power tool contacts the limiting seat 14. When the operator moves the power tool from front to back relative to the device, the base of the power tool is limited by the limiting seat 14. The base of the power tool pushes the protective seat 45 and the sliding plate 44 backward, causing the sliding plate 44 to slide backward along the second sliding shaft 43 fixed by the second mounting plate 41 and the second mounting block 42, thus compressing the second compression spring 46. This exposes the front half of the conductive insert group 22 in the through slot of the second compression spring 46, allowing the conductive insert group 22 to be inserted into the base socket of the power tool. When the protective seat 45 is fully retracted into the upper housing 13 of the charging base, the conductive insert group 22 and the base socket of the power tool are connected, and the base of the power tool moves to the limiting position. Behind the protruding shell 33, the base of the power tool no longer presses against the upper side of the limiting protruding shell 33. The limiting protruding shell 33 can be reset by the elastic force of the first compression spring 34. The protruding limiting protruding shell 33 can then limit the power tool. At this time, the operator can release the device and the power tool. The power tool cannot move forward relative to the limiting seat 14. The circuit board 21 can be fixed by the first mounting plate 12 located in the lower housing 11 of the charging base. The circuit board 21, together with the electrical components on it, can charge the power tool that is stably connected to the conductive plug group 22. After charging is completed, the operator only needs to press down on the limiting protruding shell 33 to slide the base of the power tool out of the limiting seat 14. At this time, the sliding plate 44 can be held at the foremost position within its movable range by the elastic force of the second compression spring 46. The sliding plate 44 can drive the protective seat 45 to reset, and the protective seat 45 can protect the conductive plug group 22. The device can protect the conductive plug group 22 by the protective seat 45, which can move back and forth, to prevent the conductive plug group 22 from being damaged by collision. At the same time, it can prevent the conductive plug group 22 from being exposed after the device is powered on, which may cause accidental contact or leakage. The device can limit the power tool by the limiting seat 14 and the limiting protrusion shell 33, so that the base plug interface of the power tool can be stably plugged into the conductive plug group 22 to ensure the charging effect. The device has higher safety and working stability.
