Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of charging gun technology, specifically to a DC charging gun with a replaceable fuse. Background Technology
[0002] Low-power DC charging guns pose a risk of burnout due to instantaneous high current. Therefore, fuses are required in the internal wiring of the charging gun to provide short-circuit protection during use. However, fuses are disposable products. In existing charging guns, if a short circuit occurs, the charging wire becomes unusable, requiring the replacement of the entire charging gun wiring harness. This process is cumbersome and incurs high material and labor costs. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model provides a DC charging gun with a replaceable fuse, which solves the problem of cumbersome operation and high cost caused by the need to replace the entire wiring harness after a short circuit occurs in the prior art.

Detailed Implementation
[0026] To illustrate the technical features, objectives, and effects of this utility model in detail, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0027] Please see the appendix Figure 1-5 The first embodiment of this utility model provides a DC charging gun with a replaceable fuse, including a gun body 4; a fuse terminal assembly 5, detachably installed in the gun body 4, the fuse terminal assembly 5 including a terminal 53 and a tail pin 51, and a fuse 52 disposed between the terminal 53 and the tail pin 51; and a wiring socket 41 installed in the gun body 4, the wiring end of the wiring socket 41 being connected to a cable (not shown in the figure), and the tail pin 51 being inserted into the wiring socket 41 to make the terminal 53 conduct with the cable. Exemplarily, one end of the wiring socket 41 is provided with a cable crimping hole 412 to facilitate cable connection.
[0028] In the above embodiment, the fuse 52 is embedded between the terminal 53 and the tail pin 51 to form a fuse terminal assembly 5 for easy modular assembly and disassembly. Connection and disassembly are performed by inserting and removing the tail pin 51. The operation is simple. When the charging gun is short-circuited, only the fuse terminal assembly 5 needs to be removed and replaced. It is not necessary to replace the entire charging gun cable, thereby saving material and labor costs.
[0029] Based on the above embodiments, the tail pin 51 includes a connector 512 and a first rivet cap 511, the terminal 53 is provided with a second rivet cap 533, and the fuse 52 has rivet heads 521 at both ends. The rivet heads 521 at both ends of the fuse 52 are respectively riveted into the first rivet cap 511 and the second rivet cap 533. By using a riveting method for connection, the two ends of the fuse 52 can maintain sufficient contact with the terminal 53 and the connector 512 respectively, ensuring the conduction effect.
[0030] Based on the above embodiment, a waterproof ring fixing groove 532 is provided on the outer circumference of the terminal 53, and a waterproof ring 54 is installed in the waterproof ring fixing groove 532. Several outwardly protruding ribs 541 are provided on the outer circumference of the waterproof ring 54. The waterproof ring 54 can prevent external liquid from entering the charging gun through the installation gap of the fuse terminal assembly 5, and the ribs 541 can further increase the waterproofness.
[0031] Based on the above embodiments, the gun body 4 includes a plug 43 and a terminal pressure plate 42. The plug 43 has a terminal mounting hole 431, and the terminal pressure plate 42 has a space for accommodating the fuse 52. The wiring socket 41 is installed at one end of the terminal pressure plate 42. During installation, the fuse terminal assembly 5 enters the gun body through the terminal mounting hole 431 until the insertion part 512 of the tail pin 51 is inserted into the wiring socket 41. At this time, the fuse 52 is located inside the terminal pressure plate 42, and the waterproof ring 54 is sealed with the inner ring of the terminal mounting hole 431 to achieve waterproofing.
[0032] Based on the above embodiments, a fixing groove 411 is provided on the outer circumference of the wiring socket 41, and a fixing slot 421 is provided on the terminal pressure plate 42. During installation, the fixing slot 421 is inserted into the fixing groove 411 to achieve quick installation of the wiring socket.
[0033] Based on the above embodiments, a positioning groove 531 is formed on the outer circumference of the terminal 53, and a slot 432 is formed on the plug 43. A terminal card 3 is installed in the slot 432, and a slot 33 is formed on the terminal card 3 so that the terminal card 3 can be inserted into the positioning groove 531. During installation, simply insert the terminal card 3 into the slot 432 so that the slot 33 is inserted into the positioning groove 531 to complete the positioning of the terminal 53, ensuring the accuracy of the installation position of the fuse terminal assembly 5.
[0034] Based on the above embodiments, the terminal card 3 has a first disassembly groove 31 and a second disassembly groove 32. After the terminal card 3 is inserted into the positioning groove 531, the second disassembly groove 32 is located inside the terminal mounting hole 431. When the second disassembly groove 32 moves outward to be close to the inner wall of the terminal mounting hole 431, the first disassembly groove 31 is located outside the plug 43. During disassembly, the terminal card 3 is pushed outward through the second disassembly groove 32. When the second disassembly groove 32 is close to the inner wall of the terminal mounting hole 431, the first disassembly groove 31 is exposed. At this time, a tool such as a flathead screwdriver can be inserted into the first disassembly groove 31 to pull the terminal card 3 outward, thereby completing the disassembly. Using the terminal card 3 to position the terminal 53 simplifies the processing procedure of the terminal 53 while ensuring the positioning effect.
[0035] Based on the above embodiments, the plug 43 is provided with a first threaded hole 433, which is radially connected to the slot 432. The terminal card 3 is provided with a notch 34 on the side near the first threaded hole 433. A first fixing screw 2 is installed in the first threaded hole 433. The bottom of the first fixing screw 2 abuts against the inner wall of the notch 34 to limit the terminal card 3 and prevent the terminal card 3 from loosening.
[0036] Based on the above embodiments, a groove 434 is provided on the plug 43, the groove 434 covers the slot 432 and the first threaded hole 433, and a sticker 1 is attached to the groove 434, so that the charging gun has a simpler and more beautiful appearance.
[0037] Please see the appendix Figure 6-8 The second embodiment of this utility model provides a DC charging gun with a replaceable fuse. The difference between this and the first embodiment is that the positioning method of the terminal 53 is different. In this embodiment, the terminal 53 is provided with a second threaded hole 534, the plug 43 is provided with a through hole 435, and the terminal 53 is fixed by a second fixing screw 6. The positioning of the terminal 53 is achieved by the cooperation of the second fixing screw 6 and the second threaded hole 534.
