[0005] The waterproof electric bicycle charging station provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: a waterproof electric bicycle charging station includes a crossbar and a column, and multiple crossbars and columns are combined to form the main body of the charging station. The crossbars and columns are all made of standard galvanized rectangular tubes. The outer surface of the crossbar is equipped with equally spaced sockets and socket covers, each socket cover being fitted over the outside of the socket, and a silicone pad is provided between each socket and the crossbar. One of the crossbars has a button card reader installed on its outer surface. The front of the button card reader is provided with a pad, and a faceplate is adhered to the front of the pad. It also includes an aviation plug that passes through the central column to connect the internal cables of the crossbar.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solutions, the main body of the charging pile is made of standard galvanized rectangular tube, which has high strength, simple structure, small footprint, and is easy to move and install. By setting socket covers on the sockets and silicone pads between the sockets and the crossbar, and by setting aviation plugs to connect the internal cables of the crossbar, the waterproof and dustproof effects of the sockets and charging pile lines are ensured. By setting a faceplate on the keypad card reader, water or dust can be effectively prevented from entering the keypad card reader.

[0007] Preferably, the outer surface of the crossbar is provided with QR codes arranged at equal intervals for scanning to activate the charging function, and the QR codes are respectively set on one side of the corresponding socket.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the QR code setting greatly improves the convenience of user operation. Users can quickly start charging by scanning the QR code with their mobile phones. The operation is simple and efficient. This design is in line with the current trend of mobile payment and smart operation and conforms to the usage habits of most users. At the same time, placing the QR code on one side of the socket and associating it with the socket makes it easy for users to scan accurately and avoids increasing the difficulty of operation due to confusing locations. This further optimizes the charging process, improves the user experience, and makes the charging process smoother and more efficient.

[0009] Preferably, one of the crossbars has a mounting base inside, on which a mainboard for controlling socket charging is mounted.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the mounting base is used to install the motherboard. As the core component of charging control, the motherboard is centrally installed on the mounting base inside the crossbar, which facilitates unified management and maintenance.

[0015] Preferably, the crossbar is disposed between adjacent columns and the ends of the crossbar are fixedly connected to the top of the columns respectively.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, this connection method enables the crossbar and column to form a stable and reasonable main structure of the charging pile, which enhances the overall strength and stability of the charging pile. During outdoor use, the charging pile may be subjected to various external forces, such as wind and collisions. The stable structure can ensure that the charging pile remains intact under these external forces and will not shake or be damaged. Moreover, the reasonable structural layout makes the charging pile occupy a small area, which is convenient for installation and use in limited space.

[0017] Preferably, the bottom of the column is provided with a fixing plate, the fixing plate has multiple mounting holes inside, and triangular reinforcing plates are provided between the fixing plate and the column at equal intervals. The column, the fixing plate and the triangular reinforcing plates are welded together as one unit.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the charging pile can be firmly installed on the ground using bolts and other fasteners through the mounting holes on the fixing plate.

The triangular reinforcing plate further enhances the structural strength of the charging pile. The triangular reinforcing plate has a stable geometry, which can effectively disperse the stress between the column and the fixing plate, reducing deformation and damage caused by long-term use or external forces. The equidistant arrangement of the triangular reinforcing plates makes the force distribution more uniform, improving the stability of the entire structure. In outdoor environments, charging piles may face various harsh weather conditions and complex usage conditions. The presence of the triangular reinforcing plate ensures that the charging pile remains sturdy and durable under these conditions, guaranteeing the normal operation of the charging pile in various harsh environments and providing users with long-term stable charging services. Welding the column, fixing plate, and triangular reinforcing plate into a whole ensures the connection strength between the three and guarantees the stability of the structure and the overall support of the charging pile.

[0019] Preferably, the top of the column is provided with a cover plate, which is fixedly connected to the column by bolts.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, a cover plate is installed at the top of the column, and bolts are used to connect and fix the cover plate and the column. This not only ensures the connection strength between the cover plate and the column, but also facilitates the installation and disassembly of the cover plate, thereby facilitating the splicing and installation operation between the column and the crossbar.

[0021] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: This waterproof electric bicycle charging station uses a standard galvanized rectangular tube as its main body, which is high in strength, simple in structure, occupies little space, and is easy to move and install. By installing a socket cover on the socket and a silicone pad between the socket and the crossbar, and by installing an aviation plug to connect the internal cable of the crossbar, the waterproof and dustproof effect of the socket and charging station circuit is ensured. By installing a faceplate on the button card reader, water or dust can be effectively prevented from entering the button card reader. The overall charging station has good sealing performance and a protection level of IP54, which can meet the requirements for outdoor use. Attached Figure Description
