[0017] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the receiving unit structure of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Example

[0019] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a locked wireless charger includes a transmitting unit 1 and a receiving unit 2. The transmitting unit 1 is provided with a transmitting coil 11 and a transmitting control module 12 electrically connected to the transmitting coil 11. The receiving unit 2 is provided with a receiving coil 21 that cooperates with the transmitting coil 11 and a receiving control module 22 electrically connected to the receiving coil 21.

[0020] The transmitting unit 1 is provided with an electromagnetic lock body 3 that is electrically connected to the transmitting control module 12, and the receiving unit 2 is provided with a latch 4 that cooperates with the electromagnetic lock body 3.

[0021] When the transmitting unit 1 and the receiving unit 2 are connected, the electromagnetic lock body 3 on the transmitting unit 1 and the latch 4 on the receiving unit 2 cooperate to lock and fix the transmitting unit 1 and the receiving unit 2. The transmitting control module 12 controls the transmitting coil 11 and the electromagnetic lock body 3 to work according to a preset program, and the receiving control module 22 controls the receiving coil 21 to work according to a preset program.

[0022] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the transmitting unit 1 further includes: a transmitter housing 13 and a transmitting cable 14. The transmitting coil 11 and the transmitting control module 12 are disposed inside the transmitter housing 13. The transmitting cable 14 is electrically connected to the transmitting control module 12 for accessing an external power source. A lock body mounting base 31 is provided on the side wall of the transmitter housing 13. The electromagnetic lock body 3 is disposed inside the lock body mounting base 31. A cover 32 is provided on the lock body mounting base 31 to fix the electromagnetic lock body 3 in the lock body mounting base 31. The transmitting control module 12 is provided with a first communication module, which receives or sends preset signals through wired or wireless means, and controls the transmitting control module 12 to work according to a preset program.

[0023] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the receiving unit 2 further includes: a receiver housing 23 and a receiving cable 24. The receiving coil 21 and the receiving control module 22 are disposed inside the receiver housing 23. The receiving cable 24 is electrically connected to the receiving control module 22 to conduct the current generated by magnetic induction into the electrical equipment. A locking mounting base 41 is provided on the side wall of the receiver housing 23. The locking 4 is disposed on the locking mounting base 41. A second communication module is provided on the receiving control module 22 to receive or send preset signals through wired or wireless means, and to control the receiving control module 22 to work according to a preset program.

[0024] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, positioning magnets 5 are respectively provided at corresponding positions in the transmitting unit 1 and the receiving unit 2, which are used to assist in magnetic alignment when in contact, so that the transmitting coil 11 and the receiving coil 21 are accurately aligned and quickly docked.

[0025] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the transmitting unit 1 is provided with a handle 15, which makes it convenient for the user to grip the transmitting unit 1 and facilitates the docking and separation of the transmitting unit 1 and the receiving unit 2.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the lock body mounting base 31 has a notch 33 at the position corresponding to the latch 4, which exposes the locking pin of the electromagnetic lock body 3. The latch 4 extends into the notch 33 and engages with the locking pin of the electromagnetic lock body 3 to lock.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, the locking pin end of the electromagnetic lock body 3 is set as a wedge-shaped surface facing the latch 4. When the transmitting unit 1 docks with the receiving unit 2, the latch 4 contacts the wedge-shaped surface, causing the locking pin to retract a small distance so that the latch 4 can pass through. After the latch 4 passes through, the locking pin of the electromagnetic lock body 3 is reset, and the locking is completed.

[0028] The receiving unit 2 is also provided with an expansion interface (not shown in the figure) that is electrically connected to the receiving control module 22, for connecting with other expansion peripherals. For example, connecting an external camera can realize functions such as cycling recording, collision detection, and anti-theft alarm.

[0029] In use, the transmitting unit 1 is generally located at a fixed charging station, while the receiving unit 2 is located on a movable carrier. During charging, the transmitting unit 1 is attached to the receiving unit 2. During the attachment process, the electromagnetic lock body 3 and the latch 4 cooperate to lock, making the transmitting unit 1 and the receiving unit 2 firmly attached together. The transmitting unit 1 supplies power to the receiving unit 2 through a magnetic field or electric field, and the receiving unit 2 then transfers energy to the load behind it. When unlocking is required, the receiving unit 2 transmits a preset unlocking command to the transmitting unit 1 through the wireless communication channel between the receiving unit and the transmitting unit 1, or the charging backend directly transmits the preset unlocking command to the transmitting unit 1. After receiving the command, the transmitting unit 1 is powered by the electromagnetic lock body 3, which opens the locking pin of the electromagnetic lock body 3 and disengages the latch 4 to complete the unlocking.

[0030] An electric vehicle includes a body and a basket located at the front of the body. The receiving unit 2 of the wireless charger is disposed at the front of the body and above the basket. This utilizes the unused space above the basket, avoiding obstruction of the riding area, while improving charging efficiency (reducing electromagnetic loss due to height above the ground). It overcomes the problems of traditional receiving units 2 being fixed to the bottom of the body or battery compartment, making them susceptible to mud and water corrosion and inconvenient to install and remove.

[0031] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that the wireless charger of this utility model allows the transmitting unit and receiving unit to quickly snap together and lock in place. This ensures the transmitting and receiving units are firmly secured for effective operation and also provides monitoring and anti-theft functions, effectively guaranteeing smooth charging operations. In the electric vehicle of this utility model, the receiving unit is installed in the unused space above the basket, eliminating the need to occupy riding area and improving charging efficiency.
