Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of charging equipment technology, and more particularly to a charging gun and a charging device. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of electric vehicle charging technology, charging piles establish an electrical connection between the charging gun and the vehicle's charging port to achieve power transmission. During the charging process, to ensure charging safety and stability, the charging gun and the vehicle's charging port are usually fixed together by a locking mechanism. This locking mechanism relies on the coordinated operation of electronic components and mechanical structures inside the charging gun. However, as the frequency of use of the charging gun increases, the electronic components inside the charging gun are prone to damage and need to be replaced. However, due to the complex internal structure of the charging gun, the electronic components are not easy to replace. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of the embodiments of this application is to provide a charging gun and a charging device to solve the technical problem that the electronic components in the electron gun are not easy to replace in the related art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, embodiments of this application provide the following technical solutions:
[0005] In a first aspect, this application provides a charging gun, which includes a housing, a locking member, and electronic components. The housing is provided with a limiting part, the locking member is connected to the housing and used to lock the charging gun to the electrical device, and the electronic components cooperate with the locking member. The electronic components include a mating part, and the limiting part cooperates with the mating part to limit and fix the position of the electronic components relative to the housing.
[0006] In this application, the locking element has locked and released states. When the charging gun supplies power to the electrical device, the locking element is in the locked state to lock onto the electrical device; when the charging gun needs to be separated from the electrical device, the locking element is in the released state to separate from the electrical device. When the locking element switches states, electronic components cooperate with the locking element to ensure the normal operation of the charging gun. These electronic components can be sensing devices that detect whether the locking element is locked to the electrical device, or they can be electronic locks used to restrict the locking element to a fixed position.
[0007] As the charging gun is used more frequently, the electronic components will inevitably be damaged and need to be replaced due to high-frequency use. In this application, the electronic components of the charging gun are fixed and limited within the housing through a mating part and a limiting part formed by the electronic components and the housing itself. The connection method of the two mating and limiting parts is simple and simplifies the internal spatial structure of the housing. In this way, operators can not only quickly and accurately locate the installation position of the electronic components, but also quickly remove the electronic components from the housing, improving the convenience of electronic component replacement.
[0008] In one possible implementation, the electronic device includes a first electronic device, the mating part includes a first mating part, the housing includes a supporting part, and the limiting part includes a first limiting hook and a second limiting hook. Both the first and second limiting hooks are located on the supporting part. The first electronic device is engaged between the first and second limiting hooks, forming the first mating part. Thus, the first and second limiting hooks engage and fix the first electronic device from different directions, enhancing the stability of the first electronic device within the supporting part.
[0009] When the first electronic component malfunctions and needs replacement, the operator only needs to disengage the latch to remove it from the carrier, eliminating the need for complex tools and cumbersome procedures, thus reducing the difficulty of replacing the first electronic component. Furthermore, since few parts are involved in disassembling the first electronic component, the repairman will not damage other internal components of the charging gun during the disassembly and reassembly process, further reducing maintenance costs and improving the maintainability and lifespan of the charging gun.
[0010] In another possible implementation, the limiting part further includes a first stop and a second stop disposed on the bearing part. The first stop is connected between one end of the first limiting hook and one end of the second limiting hook, and the second stop is connected between the other ends of the first and second limiting hooks. The first stop, the first limiting hook, the second stop, and the second limiting hook together form a locking space, within which the first electronic device is housed. The locking space formed by the first stop, the first limiting hook, the second stop, and the second limiting hook constrains the first electronic device from multiple directions, improving the stability of the first electronic device installation and ensuring a stable fit between the first electronic device and the locking member.
[0011] In another possible implementation, the electronic device includes a second electronic device, the mating part includes a second mating part, the housing includes a supporting part, and the limiting part includes a third stop part. The supporting part and the third stop part are spaced apart, and at least a portion of the second electronic device is accommodated between the supporting part and the third stop part, forming the second mating part. The second electronic device is directly accommodated between the supporting part and the third stop part through the formed second mating part, allowing the operator to quickly install or remove the second electronic device.
[0012] Another possible implementation is that the second electronic device is housed entirely between the support portion and the third stop portion to ensure that the second electronic device can be securely installed inside the electron gun.
[0013] In another possible implementation, the limiting part includes a fourth stop, and the second electronic device includes a first side surface with a protrusion. The protrusion is accommodated between the supporting part and the third stop, forming a second mating part. When installing the second electronic device, the operator only needs to align the protrusion with the space between the supporting part and the third stop to quickly complete the installation of the second electronic device without complex positioning and tightening operations. Furthermore, if the second electronic device malfunctions, the operator can easily remove and replace it without disassembling other components, reducing maintenance difficulty and time costs.
[0014] Another possible implementation is that the first side of the second electronic device is provided with a groove, which includes a first groove segment and a second groove segment that are connected. The first groove segment penetrates the second side adjacent to the first side, and the second groove segment penetrates the bottom surface of the second electronic device. The protrusion is located in the angled area formed by the first groove segment and the second groove segment. Thus, when the second electronic device needs to be repaired or replaced, the operator can first release the limit of the first groove segment and then move the protrusion out from the second groove segment. The whole process does not require disassembling a large number of other parts, and the operation is simple and quick.
[0015] Another possible implementation is that the housing includes a detachably connected body and a cover, which are fastened together; the body includes a surrounding plate and an opening for fastening with the cover, and the body also includes a support portion connected to the surrounding plate. The support portion, the cover, and the portion of the surrounding plate located between the support portion and the cover form a first receiving cavity. A portion of the locking element and electronic devices are disposed in the first receiving cavity. The electronic devices are located near the opening of the body. When disassembly is required, the operator can directly access the electronic devices by opening the cover, which is convenient for operation.
[0016] In another possible implementation, the support unit and the surrounding plate, located on the portion of the support unit away from the cover, form a second receiving cavity. The charging gun also includes a connecting cable and a connector. At least a portion of the connecting cable is disposed within the second receiving cavity, and the connector is disposed within the first receiving cavity. The connector includes a first connection port and a second connection port. The first connection port connects to the electronic device. The support unit has a clearance opening through which a portion of the connecting cable connects to the second connection port. The second receiving cavity, formed by the support unit and the portion of the surrounding plate away from the cover, creates a relatively enclosed space, thereby protecting the connecting cable. Furthermore, when disassembling the electronic device, it is only necessary to disconnect the second electronic device from the connector, facilitating operation.
[0017] In another possible implementation, the first connection port is a first quick-connect interface, and the first electronic device includes a first quick-connect connector connected to the first quick-connect interface; and / or, the second connection port is a second quick-connect interface, and the second electronic device includes a second quick-connect connector connected to the second quick-connect interface. Thus, this application enables quick plugging and unplugging between the first and second electronic devices and the connector.
[0018] Another possible implementation is that the first connection port includes a first connection port and a second connection port. The first connection port connects to a first electronic device, and the second connection port connects to a second electronic device. The operator only needs to perform a single plug-in action to simultaneously connect the first and second electronic devices to the connector, facilitating disassembly and debugging.
[0019] Another possible implementation includes a quick-connect connector, which includes a connection end and a wiring end. The connection end is connected to the first connection port, and the wiring end is connected to the first electronic device and the wiring end is connected to the second electronic device. The first and second electronic devices are integrated into the same quick-connect connector. When the first and second electronic devices need to be replaced, the maintenance personnel only need to disconnect the quick-connect connector to disassemble and replace the two devices as a whole composite unit without having to deal with the two independent connectors separately.
[0020] Another possible implementation is that the first electronic device is a micro switch.
[0021] Another possible implementation is that the second electronic device is an electronic lock.
[0022] Secondly, this application provides a charging device, which includes a charging gun, a connecting cable, and a power supply device, wherein the power supply device is electrically connected to electronic devices via the connecting cable.
[0023] It should be noted that the technical effects of the second implementation method can be found in the technical effects of the corresponding implementation method in the first aspect, and will not be repeated here.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of this application according to the specific circumstances.
[0039] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 This application provides a charging device that can supply power to the electrical device 4.
[0040] For example, the charging device in this application can supply power to a vehicle, that is, the electrical device 4 is a vehicle, wherein the vehicle can be a pure electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle, or other vehicles that need to be charged, and this application does not limit this.
[0041] Of course, the electrical equipment 4 in this application can also be other equipment that needs to be charged, such as a battery box or a drone.
[0042] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The charging equipment includes a charging gun 2, a power supply device 11, and a connecting cable 3. The power supply device 11 is electrically connected to the electronic components through the connecting cable 3.
[0043] The connecting cable 3 is partially installed inside the charging gun 2 and connected to the components inside the charging gun 2. The other part of the connecting cable 3 is connected between the charging gun 2 and the power supply device 11 so that the power supply device 11 can supply power to the charging gun 2.
[0044] It should be noted that the power supply device 11 in this application can be a storage battery or a city power grid that directly supplies power to the charging gun 2.
[0045] In other embodiments, see Figure 1 The charging equipment in this application also includes a charging pile 1, and the power supply device 11 is housed within the charging pile 1. Of course, the power supply device 11 in this application can also be an external, separate component, and this application does not limit this.
[0046] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and combined Figure 2 and Figure 3 The charging gun 2 in this application includes a housing 21, which is the outer shell structure of the charging gun 2 to protect the internal components of the charging gun 2.
[0047] It should be noted that this application does not impose any restrictions on the shape of the outer shell structure. It can adopt conventional geometric shapes such as cylinders and cuboids, or other unconventional structural forms.
[0048] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and combined Figure 2 and Figure 3 The charger in this application also includes a locking element, which is connected to the housing 21 and used to lock the charging gun 2 to the electrical device 4 to ensure the stable operation of the charging process.
[0049] It should be noted that the locking method between the locking member and the electrical equipment 4 (i.e., the vehicle) in this application can be mechanical locking, electromagnetic locking, or other locking methods, and this application does not limit this. For ease of explanation, this application will use mechanical locking between the locking member and the electrical equipment 4 as an example.
[0050] For example, the locking element of this application includes a locking rod 22 rotatably connected to the housing 21, the locking rod 22 being arranged along the extending direction of the charging gun 2. Specifically, the two ends of the locking rod 22 respectively form a pressing end 222 and a locking end 221, and the middle part is rotatably connected to the housing 21 via a rotating shaft 223.
[0051] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the locking end 221 is configured as a hook structure for engaging and locking with the charging port of the electrical device 4 (such as a vehicle). When the user operates, pressing the pressing end 222 of the locking lever 22 causes the hook to lift up, making it easier for the charging gun 2 to be inserted into the charging port. The hook then falls back under the action of gravity, forming a locking engagement with the charging port, thereby ensuring a secure connection of the charging gun 2.
[0052] In some other embodiments, a return spring 224 is provided inside the housing 21. This spring is connected to the pressing end 222 of the locking rod 22 to provide an elastic return force, ensuring that the pressing end 222 can automatically return to its original position after operation, so that when the charging gun 2 needs to be locked with the charging port of the electrical device 4, the hook can lock and engage with the charging port.
[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and combined Figure 3 and Figure 7 The charger in this application also includes electronic components that cooperate with locking components.
[0054] For example, the electronic device includes a micro switch 23, whose sensing end is used to detect the movement state of the locking rod 22 and transmit the corresponding signal to the control device of the charging pile 1, thereby controlling the on / off of the power supply device 11.
[0055] Specifically, when the latch of the locking lever 22 performs the locking or unlocking action, it will make mechanical contact with the contact 231 (i.e., the sensing end) of the micro switch 23. During the user's pressing operation, the contact 231 of the micro switch 23 can sense two trigger signals in succession, thereby transmitting different status signals to the control device to achieve precise control.
[0056] In another example, the electronic device is an electronic lock 24. When the latch of the locking bar 22 performs the locking action, the electronic lock 24 locks the position of the locking bar 22 to prevent it from resetting, so that the latch can be connected to the charging port.
[0057] As another example, the electronic device also includes an electronic lock 24. When the latch of the locking lever 22 completes the locking action, the electronic lock 24 automatically locks the position of the locking lever 22 to prevent it from accidentally resetting, thereby ensuring that the latch and the charging port remain reliably connected and enhancing the stability of the charging connection.
[0058] In practice, the electronic lock 24 triggers a locking action by detecting the locked position of the locking lever 22. When the user needs to unlock, a command can be sent through the control device to release the locked state of the electronic lock 24, restoring the locking lever 22 to an operable state. This locking method of the electronic lock 24 not only improves security performance but also achieves intelligent operation control.
[0059] This application does not limit the configuration of the electronic devices; the electronic lock 24 and the micro switch 23 can be configured individually or simultaneously. For ease of explanation, the following description uses an embodiment where both are present as an example:
[0060] The electronic lock 24 is responsible for the holding function of the locking mechanism, ensuring a reliable connection between the hook and the charging port; the micro switch 23 is used to detect the movement status of the locking rod 22 in real time and feed the signal back to the control device.
[0061] When the control device receives the status signal sent by the micro switch 23, it will control the electronic lock 24 to perform the corresponding locking or unlocking action according to the preset logic.
[0062] When the charging gun 2 is inserted into place and the locking lever 22 is locked, the micro switch 23 will send a trigger signal to the control device. The control device will then instruct the electronic lock 24 to activate the locking function, keeping the locking lever 22 in a fixed position. When it is necessary to disconnect, the control device will first control the electronic lock 24 to unlock after confirming the operation command. Only then can the user operate the locking lever 22 to unlock.
[0063] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 and combined Figure 5 The housing 21 of the charging gun 2 includes a limiting part 26. The electronic device in this application includes a mating part. The limiting part 26 and the mating part cooperate to limit and fix the position of the electronic device relative to the housing 21.
[0064] As the charging gun 2 is used more often, the electronic components will undergo multiple mechanical movements, such as the contact 231 of the micro switch 23 and the lock cylinder 242 of the electronic lock 24. The mating part of the electronic component in this application mates with the limiting part 26 of the housing 21. The two are connected only by their own structure, without any other additional parts, which simplifies the disassembly and assembly process, makes maintenance and replacement more convenient and efficient, and can also effectively reduce production costs.
[0065] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 and combined Figure 5 The electronic device includes a first electronic device, the mating part includes a first mating part, the housing 21 includes a supporting part 25, and the limiting part 26 includes a first limiting hook 261 and a second limiting hook 262. The first limiting hook 261 and the second limiting hook 262 are both provided on the supporting part 25. The first electronic device is engaged between the first limiting hook 261 and the second limiting hook 262, and the first electronic device forms the first mating part.
[0066] In this application, the first electronic device forms a bidirectional locking structure with the first limiting hook 261 and the second limiting hook 262 on the carrier part 25 through its own first mating part. The first limiting hook 261 and the second limiting hook 262 constrain the first electronic device from different directions, effectively preventing the device from shifting during operation. At the same time, the operator only needs to release the locking relationship to quickly replace the device, improving maintenance efficiency.
[0067] Furthermore, the hook-shaped portions of the first limiting hook 261 and the second limiting hook 262 are both elastic elements to facilitate the installation of the first electronic device.
[0068] This application uses a micro switch 23 as an example of a first electronic device. In this case, the overall housing of the micro switch 23 forms a first mating part. This example is used to specifically illustrate the connection relationship between its mating part and the limiting part 26 of the housing 21.
[0069] It should be noted that the first electronic device is not limited to the micro switch 23, but may also be other electronic devices such as the electronic lock 24, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this. Here, only the cooperation between the micro switch 23 and the housing 21 is used as an example to illustrate a typical connection structure of the mating part and the limiting part 26. The connection methods of other electronic devices can be adapted and designed with reference to this principle.
[0070] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 and combined Figure 5 The limiting part 26 also includes a first stop part 263 and a second stop part 264 disposed on the bearing part 25. The first stop part 263 is connected between one end of the first limiting hook 261 and one end of the second limiting hook 262, and the second stop part 264 is connected between the other end of the first limiting hook 261 and the other end of the second limiting hook 262. The first stop part 263, the first limiting hook 261, the second stop part 264 and the second limiting hook 262 form a snap-fit space, and the first electronic device is housed in the snap-fit space.
[0071] The first stop 263 is connected between one end of the first limiting hook 261 and the second limiting hook 262, and the second stop 264 is connected between the other ends of the two limiting hooks, thus forming a closed locking space together with the two limiting hooks. The first electronic device is securely housed within this locking space, and the first stop 263, the second stop 264, the first limiting hook 261, and the second limiting hook 262 form a four-sided enclosure structure, ensuring that the first electronic device is reliably constrained in all directions. That is, this application ensures both stable installation of the first electronic device and ease of assembly and disassembly.
[0072] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 and combined Figure 6 The electronic device includes a second electronic device, the mating part includes a second mating part, the housing 21 includes a supporting part 25, the limiting part 26 includes a third stop part 265, the supporting part 25 and the third stop part 265 are spaced apart, at least a portion of the second electronic device is housed between the supporting part 25 and the third stop part 265, and at least a portion of the second electronic device forms the second mating part.
[0073] For example, the second electronic device is an electronic lock 24.
[0074] Based on this, this application provides a reliable positioning reference and installation space for the second electronic device through the cooperative cooperation of the third stop 265 and the support part 25, ensuring the stability of the second electronic device during operation. Furthermore, the second electronic device directly utilizes its own structure to form the second mating part, simplifying the connection structure between the second electronic device and the housing 21, reducing the use of additional components, and lowering manufacturing costs. Simultaneously, the cooperation between the third stop 265 and the support part 25 facilitates rapid positioning and installation of the device, as well as rapid disassembly, improving the reliability of the charging gun 2.
[0075] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 and combined Figure 6 The second electronic device is housed between the support portion 25 and the third stop portion 265. The fully enclosed structure formed by the support portion 25 and the third stop portion 265 constrains the second electronic device as a whole.
[0076] In other embodiments, a portion of the second electronic device is housed between the support portion 25 and the third stop portion 265 to facilitate assembly by an operator.
[0077] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 and combined Figure 6 The limiting part 26 includes a fourth stop part 266. The first side of the second electronic device is provided with a protrusion. The protrusion is accommodated between the bearing part 25 and the third stop part 265, and the protrusion forms a second mating part.
[0078] Based on this, the protrusion of the second electronic device in this application is embedded in the space formed by the support portion 25 and the third stop portion 265, effectively mitigating external forces such as vibration and insertion / removal forces during the use of the charging gun 2, and ensuring the stable installation of the second electronic device. At the same time, the embedded design of the protrusion facilitates disassembly. During disassembly, only force needs to be applied in a specific direction (such as translation or insertion / removal action perpendicular to the snap-fit surface) to release the mechanical constraint between the two, without the need for tools or disassembly of other components.
[0079] In some embodiments, see combination Figure 6 and combined Figure 7 The second electronic device includes a first side surface, which is provided with a groove 241. The groove 241 includes a first groove segment 241a and a second groove segment 241b that are connected. The first groove segment 241a penetrates the second side surface adjacent to the first side surface, and the second groove segment 241b penetrates the bottom surface of the second electronic device. The protrusion is located in the angled area formed by the first groove segment 241a and the second groove segment 241b.
[0080] When maintenance or replacement is required, the operator can first release the limiting constraint of the first groove section 241a, and then smoothly move the protrusion out along the path of the second groove section 241b.
[0081] Based on this, the operator can plan the disassembly path during the disassembly process. Similarly, the entire disassembly process does not require the removal of surrounding related components, thereby improving disassembly efficiency. Furthermore, the natural guiding structure formed by the first groove segment 241a and the second groove segment 241b ensures the unidirectionality of the disassembly and assembly operation, avoiding operator errors.
[0082] In some embodiments, see combination Figure 3 and combined Figure 4 The housing 21 includes a detachably connected body 211 and a cover 212, which are fastened together. The body 211 includes a surrounding plate and an opening for fastening with the cover 212. The body 211 also includes a support portion 25 connected to the surrounding plate. The support portion 25, the cover 212, and the portion of the surrounding plate located between the support portion 25 and the cover 212 form a first receiving cavity 21a. A portion of the locking member and electronic devices are disposed in the first receiving cavity 21a.
[0083] On the one hand, the snap-fit detachable structure facilitates quick opening of the cover 212, making it convenient for operators. On the other hand, the support portion 25 provides a support plane for electronic devices. The limiting portion 26 of the housing 21 can be located in the part of the enclosure between the support portion 25 and the cover 212, or the limiting portion 26 can be directly provided on the support portion 25.
[0084] In some embodiments, see combination Figure 3 and combined Figure 4The supporting part 25 and the surrounding plate located on the part of the supporting part 25 away from the cover 212 form a second receiving cavity 21b. The charging gun 2 also includes a connecting cable 3 and a connector 27. The connecting cable 3 is at least partially disposed in the second receiving cavity 21b, and the connector 27 is disposed in the first receiving cavity 21a. The connector 27 includes a first connection port and a second connection port. The first connection port is connected to electronic devices. The supporting part 25 is provided with a clearance opening 251, and a portion of the connector 27 is connected to the second connection port through the clearance opening 251.
[0085] It is understandable that the support portion 25 directly isolates the first receiving cavity 21a and the second receiving cavity 21b.
[0086] In this application, a first receiving cavity 21a and a second receiving cavity 21b, which are independent of each other, are formed inside the housing 21. The second receiving cavity 21b is jointly enclosed by the support portion 25 and the extension portion of the surrounding plate, and is specifically used for laying the connecting cable 3. The first receiving cavity 21a is used to house electronic devices that require maintenance, thus avoiding mutual interference between the connecting cable 3 and the electronic devices.
[0087] In some embodiments, see combination Figure 3 and combined Figure 4 and Figure 7 The first connection port is a first quick-connect interface, and the first electronic device includes a first quick-connect connector that connects to the first quick-connect interface. Alternatively, the second connection port can also be a second quick-connect interface, and the second electronic device includes a second quick-connect connector that connects to the second quick-connect interface.
[0088] The first connection port of connector 27 is configured as a standardized first quick-connect interface, corresponding to the first quick-connect connector on the first electronic device; similarly, the second connection port can simultaneously adopt a second quick-connect interface design, forming a matching connection with the second quick-connect connector of the second electronic device. Through the standardized quick-connect interface design, the connection operation time between the electronic device and the connecting cable 3 via connector 27 is shortened.
[0089] Another possible implementation is that the first connection port includes a first connection port and a second connection port. The first connection port is connected to a first electronic device, and the second connection port is connected to a second electronic device. Operators can connect or disconnect both electronic devices simultaneously with a single plug-in / plug-out operation, significantly improving assembly and maintenance efficiency and simplifying the operation process.
[0090] In another possible implementation, the electron gun also includes a quick-connect connector 28, which includes a connection end and a wiring end. The connection end is connected to a first connection port, the wiring end is connected to a first electronic device, and the wiring end is connected to a second electronic device.
[0091] The connector mates with the first connection port, and the terminal connects to both the first and second electronic components, achieving an integrated design of the first and second electronic components. When maintenance or replacement is required, the maintenance personnel only need to disconnect the quick-connect connector 28 to disassemble and reassemble the first and second electronic components as an integrated module, avoiding the cumbersome operation of handling multiple independent connectors separately.
