Abstract
Description
Technical Field

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0046] Given the current poor waterproof performance of outdoor charging stations, which easily leads to safety hazards.
[0047] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment provides an outdoor waterproof electric bicycle charging station, including: a support column 1, a bearing rod 2, a charging socket 4, a protective cover 5, a blocking cover 6, and a flow guide baffle 7, etc.
[0048] Among them, the support column 1 is equipped with a bearing rod 2, which is a hollow cavity 21 structure with several slots 22 spaced apart axially.
[0049] Several charging sockets 4 are slidably built into the cavity 21 of the support rod 2, and each charging socket 4 can pass through the corresponding slot 22.
[0050] A number of protective covers 5 are installed on the outer wall of the support rod 2, the number of which is equal to the number of slots 22, and each protective cover 5 covers the outer edge of the corresponding slot 22. The protective covers 5 are configured to provide local protection for the charging socket 4 against dust particles, rainwater or other stains.
[0051] Several blocking covers 6 are rotatably disposed inside the protective cover 5, each blocking cover 6 corresponding to a slot 22. The blocking covers 6 are configured to prevent rainwater from entering the charging socket 4.
[0052] A deflector 7 is mounted on the support column 1, located above the support rod 2. The deflector 7 is configured to collect rainwater at the far end (the end away from the charging socket 4) and discharge it, preventing water from splashing onto the charging socket 4, thereby improving waterproof performance.
[0053] Specifically, such as Figure 3 or Figure 4As shown, a telescopic rod 3 is provided in the cavity 21 of the support rod 2. One end of the telescopic rod 3 is connected to the charging socket 4, and the charging socket 4 can be slidably installed inside the support rod 2 via the telescopic rod 3. In use, the charging socket 4 is extended from inside the support rod 2 through the slot 22 via the telescopic rod 3 to facilitate charging; when not in use, the charging socket 4 is retracted into the support rod 2 through the slot 22 via the telescopic rod 3.
[0054] Furthermore, the telescopic rod 3 includes a first rod body 31 and a second rod body 32 whose external dimensions decrease or increase sequentially along the telescopic direction and are coaxially slidably disposed. The shapes (cross-sectional shapes) of the first rod body 31 and the second rod body 32 can be the same, such as both being square, cylindrical, or elliptical cylinders, or they can be different. For example, the cylindrical first rod body 31 and the square second rod body 32 can be slidably disposed relative to each other, as long as the sliding sides of the two can be slidable. Figure 3 or Figure 4 A specific structure is shown, in which the external dimensions of the first rod 31 and the second rod 32 decrease sequentially along the extension direction, and both the first rod 31 and the second rod 32 are cylindrical in shape.
[0055] The telescopic rod 3 also includes an electric telescopic rod (not shown in the figure). The electric telescopic rod is located inside the first rod body 31, and its output end is fixedly connected to the second rod body 32. When the electric telescopic rod is activated, it drives the second rod body 32 to extend or retract relative to the first rod body 31.
[0056] To further improve the automation and convenience of telescopic control, the telescopic rod 3 in this embodiment also includes a controller (not shown in the figure). The input end of the electric telescopic rod is connected to the output end of the controller. The controller controls the start, stop and running direction of the electric telescopic rod, thereby controlling the telescopic direction and stroke of the telescopic rod 3.
[0057] like Figure 3 or Figure 4 As shown, the blocking cover 6 includes several parts such as a connecting rod 61 and a cover plate 62.
[0058] The connecting rod 61 is fixedly mounted on the opposite side walls of the protective cover 5, above the slot 22. The cover plate 62 is rotatably mounted on the connecting rod 61, opposite the slot 22. In use, after the charging socket 4 extends from inside the support rod 2, the contact between the charging socket 4 and the cover plate 62 causes the cover plate 62 to be pushed open, thus facilitating the charging of the electric bicycle. When not in use, after the charging socket 4 is retracted into the support rod 2, the cover plate 62 closes under gravity, sealing the slot 22 to prevent rainwater intrusion and potential safety hazards.
[0059] Furthermore, in order to improve the closing efficiency of the cover plate 62, in this embodiment, a magnetic strip (not shown in the figure) is provided on the side of the cover plate 62 adjacent to the slot 22. The magnetic strip is approximately "U" shaped.
[0060] Furthermore, the lower end of the cover plate 62 has an arc-shaped slot 621. In rainy weather, when a charging cable is plugged into the charging socket 4, as the charging socket 4 retracts into the support rod 2, the charging cable can pass through the arc-shaped slot 621 and enter the support rod 2 along with the charging socket 4 without being pulled out, thus achieving effective rain protection. This prevents electric leakage hazards to electric vehicles that are charging or cannot be unplugged in time, and also avoids damage to the charging socket 4, thereby improving the safety of the equipment.
[0061] like Figure 1 or Figure 4 As shown, the flow guide baffle 7 includes several parts such as an outer frame 71 and a flow guide body 72.
[0062] The outer frame 71 is mounted on the support column 1, and the flow guide body 72 is mounted at an angle inside the outer frame 71.
[0063] Specifically, a number of drain pipes 8 are fixedly installed on the side of the outer frame 71 facing away from the charging socket 4. The guide body 72 gradually slopes downward toward the side close to the drain pipes 8, thereby forming a dam on the inner wall of the outer frame 71. This effectively prevents the side wind from blowing the water away from the predetermined path, or prevents the water from overflowing from the side edges, ensuring that all the collected water is directed toward the drain pipes 8.
[0064] Furthermore, the charging station in this embodiment also includes a raindrop sensor (not shown in the figure). This raindrop sensor can monitor rainfall in real time, and when the detected rainfall reaches a preset threshold, it will send a signal to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller drives the electric telescopic rod to retract, thereby completely retracting the charging socket 4 into the protective space inside the support rod 2 to prevent rainwater from seeping in.
[0065] like Figures 3-4As shown, during normal charging, the switch button on the controller is used as an input signal. The controller outputs a control command based on the button's state (pressed / released), driving the electric telescopic rod to extend, thus extending the charging socket 4 from the support rod 2. At this time, the charging socket 4 pushes open the cover plate 62, opening the slot 22 for easy charging of the electric bicycle. When the rain sensor detects rainwater, it sends a signal to the controller, which then drives the electric telescopic rod to retract. The cover plate 62 falls back under gravity and is magnetically attached to the outer wall of the support rod 2, closing the slot 22 and effectively preventing rainwater from splashing into the charging socket 4. Simultaneously, when the charging socket 4 retracts into the support rod 2, the arc-shaped slot 621 on the cover plate 62 allows the charging cable to retract into the charging socket 4 without being unplugged, achieving effective rain protection and improving convenience and usability. Furthermore, in daily use, the closed cover plate 62 effectively protects against dust and stains, thus extending the lifespan of the charging socket 4.
[0066] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
