Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rain cover technology, and in particular to a rain cover device. Background Technology

[0002] A rain cover is a device used to shield objects or areas from rain and protect them from rain damage. It is widely used in outdoor equipment, building structures, vehicles and other scenarios. Its core function is to reduce the direct impact, penetration or soaking of rainwater on the protected object by physically blocking or guiding water flow, thereby extending the service life of the equipment, ensuring the normal operation of the facility or maintaining a dry environment in a specific area.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, existing patents have provided solutions. However, existing rain covers for charging stations lack an extension structure, which means that when encountering oblique rainfall or heavy rain, the fixed-range rain covers cannot cover the charging interface and surrounding area. Rainwater directly splashes onto the connection between the charging gun and the interface. Over time, rainwater can easily seep into the interface, causing short circuits and corrosion of metal parts, thus posing a risk of electrical leakage.

[0004] Therefore, a rain cover device is proposed. Utility Model Content

Rainwater directly splashes onto the connection between the charging gun and the interface. Over time, rainwater can easily seep into the interface, causing short circuits, corrosion of metal parts, and thus the risk of leakage.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a rainproof cover device, including a charging pile body, a rainproof mechanism welded to the top of the charging pile body, and extension mechanisms provided on both sides of the inner side of the rainproof mechanism. The extension mechanism includes a rainproof plate, a limiting groove, a lead screw, a limiting rod, an outdoor motor, and an extension plate.

[0007] Preferably, the rainproof mechanism includes a guide plate, a guide channel, a protective shell, a PLC controller, and a rain sensor, with the guide plate welded to both sides of the rainproof plate.

[0008] Preferably, the flow channels are respectively formed on the surface of the flow guide plate and the surface of the rainproof plate, and the protective shell is welded to the rear side of the charging pile body.

[0009] Preferably, the PLC controller is installed inside the protective housing, and the rain sensor is installed on the top of the protective housing.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the protective shell has three heat dissipation holes, and a dust filter is fixedly connected to the inner side of the heat dissipation holes. The surface of the dust filter is coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. The rainproof mechanism of this application guides rainwater to flow quickly, preventing rainwater from accumulating on the top of the rainproof plate. At the same time, it directs the water flow away from the charging pile body, reducing the risk of rainwater seeping into the charging interface or the inside of the equipment. The distribution of the guide channels on the surface of the guide plate and the rainproof plate further expands the drainage range and improves the overall rainproof efficiency. The linkage between the rain sensor and the PLC controller realizes the automated rainproof logic of sensing and responding. When rainfall is detected, the PLC controller can quickly trigger the extension mechanism to expand the protection range without manual intervention. It is especially suitable for unattended outdoor charging pile scenarios and improves the timeliness of the equipment in response to sudden weather. 2. The extension mechanism of this application uses an outdoor motor to drive the lead screw to rotate, which in turn drives the extension plate to slide along the limiting groove, thereby achieving flexible adjustment of the protection area. When it rains, the extension plate unfolds to cover the charging interface and operating area in front of the charging pile body, solving the problem of insufficient protection range of the fixed rain cover. After the rain stops, it retracts and resets, reducing space occupation and avoiding obstruction to vehicle parking or personnel operation. The transmission cooperation between the lead screw and the threaded block, and the guiding effect of the limiting rod and the slider, ensure that there is no deviation or jamming during the sliding of the extension plate, thus improving the stability of the mechanism operation.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-6 The present invention provides the following technical solution: A rainproof cover device includes a charging pile body 1. A rainproof mechanism 2 is welded to the top of the charging pile body 1. Extension mechanisms 3 are provided on both sides of the inner side of the rainproof mechanism 2. The extension mechanism 3 includes a rainproof plate 31, a limiting groove 32, a lead screw 33, a limiting rod 34, an outdoor motor 35, and an extension plate 36. The rainproof plate 31 is welded to the top of the charging pile body 1. The limiting groove 32 is provided on both sides of the rainproof plate 31. The lead screw 33 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the right limiting groove 32. The limiting rod 34 is welded to the inner side of the right limiting groove 32. The outdoor motor 35 is installed on the rear side of the rainproof plate 31 and connected to the inner side of the left limiting groove 32. The rear side of the lead screw 33 is connected to the connecting shaft via a flat key. The output end of the front side of the outdoor motor 35 passes through and is fixedly connected to the rear side of the connecting shaft. The extension plate 36 is slidably connected to the inner side of the rainproof plate 31. A threaded block is welded to the right side of the extension plate 36 and is threadedly connected to the surface of the lead screw 33. A slider is welded to the left side of the extension plate 36 and is slidably connected to the surface of the limiting rod 34.

[0021] In this embodiment: the charging pile body 1 provides a stable support for the rainproof mechanism 2 and the extension mechanism 3. The rainproof plate 31 can block rainwater falling from above, providing basic rain protection for the charging pile body 1, and at the same time providing a stable track for the sliding of the extension plate 36. The limiting groove 32 plays a limiting and guiding role for the sliding of the lead screw 33, the limiting rod 34 and the extension plate 36, ensuring that the extension plate 36 does not deviate during the sliding process. The lead screw 33 cooperates with the threaded block on the right side of the extension plate 36 to rotate the outdoor motor 35. The extension plate 36 is converted into a linear sliding mechanism, enabling its telescopic function. The limiting rod 34 cooperates with the slider on the left side of the extension plate 36 to provide auxiliary guidance and support for the sliding of the extension plate 36, preventing it from tilting due to unilateral force during the sliding process. The outdoor motor 35 provides power for the rotation of the lead screw 33, driving the extension plate 36 to achieve telescopic movement. The extension plate 36 expands the protection range through sliding, covering the charging interface and operating area in front of the charging pile body 1 during rainfall, effectively blocking rainwater splash.

[0022] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the rainproof mechanism 2 includes a guide plate 21, a guide channel 22, a protective shell 23, a PLC controller 24, and a rain sensor 25. The guide plate 21 is welded to both sides of the rainproof plate 31.

[0023] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the flow guide grooves 22 are respectively opened on the surface of the flow guide plate 21 and the surface of the rainproof plate 31, and the protective shell 23 is welded to the rear side of the charging pile body 1.

[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the PLC controller 24 is installed inside the protective housing 23, and the rain sensor 25 is installed on the top of the protective housing 23.

[0025] In this embodiment: by setting the guide plate 21 welded to both sides of the rainproof plate 31, the area for rainwater diversion is increased, preventing rainwater from dripping from both sides of the rainproof plate 31 onto the charging pile body 1. The guide groove 22 provides a directional flow channel for rainwater, which can quickly guide the rainwater away from the charging pile body 1, reducing the residence time of rainwater on the surface of the device. The protective shell 23 provides a closed installation space for the PLC controller 24, which can block rainwater, dust, etc. from entering, protecting the internal electrical components from external environmental corrosion. At the same time, it provides an installation base for the rain sensor 25. The PLC controller 24 receives the detection signal from the rain sensor 25 and controls the start, stop and forward / reverse rotation of the outdoor motor 35 according to the signal, realizing the automatic extension and retraction of the extension plate 36. The rain sensor 25 can detect whether it is raining and the amount of rainfall in real time, and transmit the detection signal to the PLC controller 24 to provide a basis for the controller's decision.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the protective shell 23 has three heat dissipation holes 4, and a dust filter 5 is fixedly connected to the inside of the heat dissipation holes 4. The surface of the dust filter 5 is coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, a reinforcing ring 6 is welded to the side of the rain sensor 25 near the protective shell 23, and the surface of the reinforcing ring 6 is coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

[0028] In this embodiment: by providing heat dissipation holes 4, a heat dissipation channel is provided for the PLC controller 24 inside the protective shell 23; by providing a dust filter 5, external dust can be blocked from entering the protective shell 23 through the heat dissipation holes 4; by providing anti-corrosion coating, the durability of the dust filter 5 is enhanced and its service life is extended; by providing a reinforcing ring 6, the connection between the rain sensor 25 and the protective shell 23 is strengthened, preventing the rain sensor 25 from loosening or falling off in outdoor strong winds and other environments; by providing anti-corrosion coating, the service life of the reinforcing ring 6 is extended.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the surface of the outdoor motor 35 is covered with a waterproof shell 7, and the bottom of the waterproof shell 7 has a vent hole 8. A filter screen 9 is fixedly connected to the inside of the vent hole 8.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, a buffer pad 10 is fitted on the side of the extension plate 36 near the rainproof plate 31. The buffer pad 10 is made of rubber material.

[0031] In this embodiment: by setting up a waterproof shell 7, rainwater can be effectively blocked from entering the interior of the outdoor motor 35, protecting the motor from rainwater corrosion and preventing damage to the motor due to water ingress. By setting up a vent 8, a heat dissipation channel is provided for the outdoor motor 35, allowing the heat generated by the motor during operation to dissipate in a timely manner. By setting up a filter screen 9, dust and other impurities can be blocked from entering the interior of the waterproof shell 7 through the vent 8. By setting up a buffer pad 10, the collision and friction between the extension plate 36 and the rainproof plate 31 can be reduced during the extension and retraction of the extension plate 36, reducing noise. By setting up a buffer pad 10 made of rubber material, the rubber material itself has good elasticity and wear resistance, which reduces frictional wear between components and extends the service life of the extension plate 36 and the rainproof plate 31.

[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, a groove 11 is provided on the inner side of the rainproof plate 31, and the extension plate 36 is slidably connected to the inner side of the groove 11.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the PLC controller 24 is electrically connected to the outdoor motor 35 and the rain sensor 25 via wires.

[0034] In this embodiment: by setting the slide groove 11, a precise guide trajectory is provided for the sliding of the extension plate 36, further restricting the movement direction of the extension plate 36.

[0035] Working principle: First, the rain sensor 25 monitors the external weather conditions in real time. When rainfall is detected, it transmits the rainfall signal to the PLC controller 24 via a wire, providing a trigger signal for starting the entire outdoor motor 35. Then, after receiving the rainfall signal from the rain sensor 25, the PLC controller 24 sends a start command to the outdoor motor 35. After receiving the command from the PLC controller 24, the outdoor motor 35 starts working. Its output terminal drives the lead screw 33 to rotate within the right limit groove 32 via a connecting shaft. Due to the threaded block on the right side of the extension plate 36 and the thread of the lead screw 33... The rotational motion of the lead screw 33 is converted into the linear sliding of the extension plate 36, and the slider on the left side of the extension plate 36 slides synchronously along the limiting rod 34. In conjunction with the sliding groove 11 on the inner side of the rainproof plate 31, the extension plate 36 is ensured to smoothly unfold from the inner side of the rainproof plate 31 to protect against rain. Finally, when the rain sensor 25 detects that the rain has stopped, it transmits the signal to the PLC controller 24 again. The PLC controller 24 controls the outdoor motor 35 to run in reverse, driving the extension plate 36 to retract along the sliding groove 11, the limiting rod 34 and the lead screw 33 to the inner side of the rainproof plate 31, completing one rain protection cycle.

[0036] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
