A charging pile with a protective structure

Abstract

This utility model provides a charging pile with a protective structure, relating to the field of charging pile technology. The pile includes a hemispherical protective shell that, during contact with a vehicle, utilizes the softness of its rubber to prevent scratches on the vehicle's surface. A ranging box detects the position of the connecting frame and sends a command to an alarm based on the detection data, alerting the driver to stop the vehicle and preventing excessive movement that could lead to collision and damage to the charging pile's protective structure. A positioning plate, matching the curvature of the inner wall of the protective shell, laterally guides the impact force, reducing the direct impact force from the vehicle on the positioning plate. This not only prevents the vehicle from colliding with the charging pile but also dissipates force, effectively avoiding excessive impact that could cause the positioning plate to break and damage the charging pile, thus improving the protection of both the charging pile and the vehicle.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of charging pile technology, and in particular to a charging pile with a protective structure. Background Technology

[0002] Charging piles, also known as electric vehicle charging stations or electric vehicle power supply equipment, are devices that provide electrical energy to electric vehicles, enabling them to store enough electricity to support their operation. A charging pile system mainly consists of four parts: electric vehicle charging piles, concentrators, battery management systems (BMS), and charging management service platforms. However, since most charging piles are fixed on the ground behind the parking space, drivers are prone to over-reversing due to operational errors or blind spots while parking, causing impacts to the charging piles and resulting in damage. Therefore, it is necessary to install protective structures on the outside of the charging piles to protect them.

[0003] In existing technologies, the protective structure of charging piles is generally composed of guardrails or guardrails. These guardrails or guardrails are used to limit and restrain vehicles, preventing them from colliding with the charging piles. However, when a driver's operation is incorrect and the vehicle moves too fast, the guardrails or guardrails cannot guide the impact force, resulting in a high-intensity impact from the vehicle onto the guardrails or guardrails, causing them to break and collapse, thus damaging the charging pile. Therefore, we propose a charging pile with a protective structure. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a charging pile with a protective structure.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a charging pile with a protective structure, comprising a pile body, a protective mechanism provided on the outside of the pile body for protecting the pile body, and a buffer mechanism provided on the outside of the protective mechanism for mitigating the impact force received by the protective mechanism; the pile body includes a base, a pile rod fixedly installed at the top of the base, a charging box fixedly connected to the top of the pile rod, and a protective frame fixedly connected to the outside of the base by bolts, with positioning plates fixedly installed at both ends of the protective frame.

[0006] Preferably, the buffer mechanism includes a distance measuring box fixedly installed on both sides of the protective frame. A spring cylinder is fixedly installed at both ends of the distance measuring box, and the distance sensor of the distance measuring box corresponds to one end of the telescopic joint of the spring cylinder. A connecting frame is fixedly connected to the other end of the distance measuring box, and a barrier plate is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting frame.

[0007] Preferably, a protective shell is fixedly connected to the top of the barrier plate, and a drainage groove is provided at the bottom of the barrier plate.

[0008] Preferably, both ends of the charging box are fixedly connected to a charging gun via power supply lines, and the charging gun is located in the storage slots on both sides of the charging box.

[0009] Preferably, an alarm is fixedly connected to both sides of the charging box, and the alarm is connected to the rangefinder controller.

[0010] Preferably, the protective shell is a hemispherical rubber shell, the barrier plate is an arc-shaped rubber frame, and the bottom end of the protective frame is fixedly connected to a ground stake.

[0011] Preferably, the outer wall of the positioning plate frame is arc-shaped and matches the arc of the inner wall of the protective shell.

[0012] Preferably, a reinforcing plate is fixedly connected to the top of both sides of the protective frame, and the reinforcing plate is semi-circular in shape.

[0013] Beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This utility model uses a positioning plate frame that matches the curvature of the inner wall of the protective shell to guide the impact force laterally, thereby reducing the direct impact force of the vehicle on the positioning plate frame. While preventing the vehicle from hitting the charging pile, it can also relieve the force on the vehicle, effectively avoiding the situation where the positioning plate frame breaks due to excessive impact force and the charging pile is damaged, thus improving the protection effect of the charging pile and the vehicle.

[0015] 2. This utility model, through the setting of a hemispherical protective shell, will avoid scratching the vehicle surface during contact with the vehicle by utilizing the soft properties of its rubber. The setting of a distance measuring box can detect the position of the connecting frame and send a command to the alarm based on the detection data. The alarm will remind the driver to stop moving the vehicle to avoid excessive vehicle movement and collision with the charging pile protective structure, which could cause economic losses.

[0022] To make the technical means, creative features, and achieved objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model is further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. However, the following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments described in the implementation plan without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0023] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Reference Figures 1-4 A charging pile with a protective structure includes a pile body 1, a protective mechanism 2 on the outside of the pile body 1 for protecting the pile body 1, and a buffer mechanism 3 on the outside of the protective mechanism 2 for mitigating the impact force on the protective mechanism 2; the pile body 1 includes a base 4, a pile rod 5 fixedly installed at the top of the base 4, a charging box 6 fixedly connected to the top of the pile rod 5, and a protective frame 7 fixedly connected to the outside of the base 4 by bolts, with positioning plate frames 8 fixedly installed at both ends of the protective frame 7.

[0025] The charging box 6 installed at the top of the charging pile 5 can charge new energy vehicles. The protective frame 7 fixedly connected to the outside of the base 4 can work with the positioning plate frame 8 fixedly installed at both ends of the protective frame 7 to limit the vehicles that approach the charging pile 5, preventing the vehicles from moving and hitting the charging pile 5, which would cause damage to the charging pile. At the same time, the buffer mechanism 3 installed on the outside of the protective mechanism 2 can prevent the vehicles from directly hitting the positioning plate frame 8 and causing damage to the vehicles, thus achieving a buffering effect.

[0026] like Figures 1-3As shown, the buffer mechanism 3 includes a rangefinder box 9 fixedly installed on both sides of the protective frame 7. A spring cylinder 10 is fixedly installed at both ends of the rangefinder box 9, and the distance sensor of the rangefinder box 9 corresponds to one end of the spring cylinder 10. A connecting frame 11 is fixedly connected to the other end of the rangefinder box 9. A baffle plate 12 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting frame 11, and a protective shell 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the baffle plate 12. A drainage groove 16 is opened at the bottom of the baffle plate 12. The rangefinder box 9 fixedly installed on both sides of the protective frame 7 can detect the spring cylinders 10 fixedly installed at both ends of the rangefinder box 9. When the vehicle contacts the protective shell 13 at the top of the baffle plate 12, it will cause the baffle plate 12 to move, which in turn pushes the connecting frame 11 to move. The distance sensor of the rangefinder box 9 will detect the position change of the connecting frame 11 at one end of the spring cylinder 10 to determine whether the vehicle has contacted or collided with the protective shell 13 and the baffle plate 12, so as to send a warning control command.

[0027] like Figures 1-2 As shown, charging guns 17 are fixedly connected to both ends of the charging box 6 via power supply lines. The charging guns 17 are located in the storage slots on both sides of the charging box 6. The charging guns 17, which are fixedly connected to both ends of the charging box 6 via power supply lines, can be used to charge new energy vehicles.

[0028] like Figures 1-3 As shown, alarms 15 are fixedly connected to both sides of the charging box 6. The alarms 15 are connected to the distance measuring box 9 controller. The alarms 15 fixedly connected to both sides of the charging box 6 can emit an alarm sound and light when the distance measuring box 9 issues a reminder command, to warn the driver and prevent the driver from continuing to move the vehicle and causing damage to the charging pile and the vehicle.

[0029] like Figures 2-4 As shown, the protective shell 13 is a hemispherical rubber shell, the barrier plate 12 is an arc-shaped rubber frame, and the bottom end of the protective frame 7 is fixedly connected to a ground stake 14. The hemispherical rubber shell of the protective shell 13 will prevent scratches on the vehicle surface during contact with the vehicle. The arc-shaped rubber frame of the barrier plate 12 can plasticize the protective shell 13 to prevent the protective shell 13 from being excessively deformed under pressure, thus preventing the barrier plate 12 and the connecting frame 11 from moving. The ground stake 14 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the protective frame 7 can reinforce the installation of the protective frame 7 and prevent the protective frame 7 from moving under force.

[0030] like Figures 2-4 As shown, the outer wall of the positioning plate frame 8 is arc-shaped and matches the arc of the inner wall of the protective shell 13. The positioning plate frame 8, which matches the arc of the inner wall of the protective shell 13, can guide the impact force laterally, thereby reducing the direct impact force of the vehicle on the positioning plate frame 8. While preventing the vehicle from hitting the charging pile, it also plays the role of unloading the force on the vehicle.

[0031] like Figures 2-4 As shown, a reinforcing plate 18 is fixedly connected to the top of both sides of the protective frame 7. The reinforcing plate 18 is semi-circular in shape. The reinforcing plate 18 fixedly connected to the top of both sides of the protective frame 7 can enhance the overall strength of the protective frame 7 and prevent the protective frame 7 from deforming on both sides due to stress.

[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The entire device is installed in a designated location in a parking lot. New energy vehicles can be charged via the charging guns 17 on both sides of the charging box 6. During use, when a vehicle reverses and approaches the charging station, it will pre-contact and abut against the protective cover 13. When the protective cover 13 is compressed, it will push the barrier plate 12 and the connecting frame 11 to move. The distance sensor inside the distance measuring box 9 detects the displacement of the connecting frame 11 and transmits an alarm command to the alarm 15. The alarm 15 will then emit an audible and visual alarm to remind the driver to prevent the vehicle from continuing to move and thus affecting the charging process. The vehicle may cause damage to the charging pile and the vehicle. When the vehicle reverses too fast or continues to reverse, the vehicle will push the protective shell 13 against the outer wall of the positioning plate frame 8. The positioning plate frame 8, which is fixed to both ends of the protective frame 7, will block and abut the vehicle, preventing the vehicle from contacting the charging pile 1 and causing damage to the charging pile 1. Moreover, the positioning plate frame 8 with its outer arc-shaped wall can guide the impact force generated by the vehicle movement on the positioning plate frame 8 laterally, thereby reducing the direct impact force caused by the vehicle on the positioning plate frame 8. While preventing the vehicle from hitting the charging pile, it can also relieve the force on the vehicle, thus improving the overall protection effect of the charging pile.

Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature.
