Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of charging devices, and more particularly to an adaptive charging mechanism and a charging station equipped with the same. [Background technology]

[0002] When charging an AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle), the charging end of the AGV needs to be correctly docked with the charging head on the charging station in order to realize charging. However, due to factors such as the location environment, structural consistency, and algorithm control, in reality, positional deviations in three directions, X, Y, and Z, or angle deviations of the docking surface occur between the charging end and the charging head during charging of the AGV, making it impossible to accurately automatically dock the charging end of the AGV with the charging head on the charging station. In the related art, to solve the above technical problem, an elastic floating assembly in three directions, X, Y, and Z, is generally provided on the charging station for the charging head, so that when there is a positional deviation in three directions, X, Y, and Z, between the charging end and the charging head when the AGV needs to be charged, the elastic floating assembly can automatically adapt the charging head to the position of the charging end during the docking operation between the charging end and the charging head, thereby realizing a relatively accurate automatic docking within the range of positional deviations allowed by design.

[0003] The elastic floating assembly in the related art generally includes a guide rail, a slider slidably mounted in the guide rail, and a spring that is pressed by the slider to contract. Such an elastic floating assembly is complicated to assemble, and is only effective against misalignment in the three directions of X, Y, and Z between the charging terminal and the charging head, and is ineffective when there is an angular misalignment of the docking surface between the charging terminal and the charging head.

When there is an angular deviation between the docking surface between the charging terminal and the charging head, the charging terminal applies an external force to the charging head along a direction that forms a certain angle with the longitudinal direction of the charging head, and accordingly, the elastic member can be contracted and deformed along the direction of the external force, so that the charging head can be swung to change the angle of the charging head relative to the charging terminal, and the charging head can be automatically adapted to the angle of the charging terminal, and high-precision docking can be achieved within the range of design deviation.

FIG. [Figure 11] 1 is a schematic diagram of a charging station to which an adaptive charging mechanism according to an embodiment of the present invention is applied; DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0021] Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements, or elements having the same or similar functions. The examples in the embodiments are for explaining the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] The use of "one embodiment" or "embodiment" or "example" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment disclosed herein. The phrase "in one embodiment" does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment in each occurrence herein.

[0023] This embodiment provides an adaptive charging mechanism, and as shown in FIG. 1, the adaptive charging mechanism includes a charging head 1 for contacting an external charging terminal and a base 2 for mounting the charging head 1. The adaptive charging mechanism further includes a first connection plate 3, a second connection plate 4, and an elastic member 5. The first connection plate 3 is provided on the charging head 1, the second connection plate 4 is provided on the base 2, and the elastic member 5 is provided between the first connection plate 3 and the second connection plate 4. The elastic member 5 is configured to be contracted and deformed along the direction of the pressing external force when the charging head 1 receives a pressing external force in any direction. In this way, when the charging head 1 and the charging terminal of the AGV are docked, the charging terminal of the AGV approaches and contacts the charging head 1 during the movement of the AGV, and presses against the charging head 1. When there is an angular misalignment of the docking surface between the charging end and the charging head 1, the charging end applies an external force to the charging head 1 along a direction that forms a certain angle with the longitudinal direction of the charging head 1, and accordingly, the elastic member 5 can contract and deform along the direction of the above external force, thereby swinging the charging head 1 to change the angle of the charging head 1 relative to the charging end, and automatically adapt the charging head 1 to the angle of the charging end, thereby achieving high-precision docking within the range of design deviation.

[0024] In this embodiment, the charging head 1 and the charging end installed on the AGV may be generally referred to as a charging male head and a charging female head, respectively. The docking process between the two is a process of inserting the charging male head into the charging female head. In the docking process, the charging female head on the AGV is aligned and inserted into the charging male head mainly by the automatic guide function of the AGV.

[0025] The elastic member 5 in this embodiment has three elastic columns arranged in a triangular shape, and both ends of the elastic columns are connected to the first connecting plate 3 and the second connecting plate 4, respectively. As can be easily understood, in alternative embodiments, the number of elastic columns may be one (with a larger diameter accordingly) or other numbers. In other alternative embodiments, the elastic member may be in other shapes than columns, such as elastic pads or elastic blocks, and the above elastic columns, elastic pads or elastic blocks may all be made of rubber or other elastic polymeric materials. In some alternative embodiments, the elastic member may be a spring or a combination of an elastic pad and a spring. The difference between the elastic member in this embodiment and the elastic floating mechanism in the related art is that the elastic member in this embodiment does not need to be provided with a structure, such as a guide rail or a shaft body, for guiding the elastic member to contract and deform in one direction.

[0026] As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the elastic column and the first and second connection plates 3 and 4 are assembled by the following structure. Both ends of the elastic column are provided with a connection block 50 having a female screw, and both ends of the elastic column are provided with a connection hole that fits the connection block 50, and both ends of the elastic column are fastened into the connection block 50 by a screw 51 that passes through the connection hole, and are fixedly connected to the first and second connection plates 3 and 4. Since the elastic column has elastic deformation ability, if it is directly assembled using a screw, the elastic column may be locally deformed, and the angle of the charging head 1 relative to the base 2 may not meet the design requirements. By providing the connection block 50 as an intermediate connection member, the connection block 50 can increase the contact area with the elastic column, while easily opening a female screw hole to realize screwing with the screw 51. Specifically, in this embodiment, the connection block 50 is made of a material such as aluminum alloy, steel or copper alloy, and is directly and integrally molded with the elastic column by a metal insert injection molding process. In FIG. 2, in order to easily show the connection block 50, the connection block 50 and the elastic posts are shown separated from each other, but in reality, the two are integrally formed.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 3, the charging head 1 in this embodiment includes a housing 10, a charging cable 11, and rollers 12. A channel 101 is formed in the center of the housing 10 along the longitudinal direction of the housing 10, and grooves 102 are formed on both sides of the channel 101. The charging cable 11 is disposed in the channel 101, and the rollers 12 are disposed in the grooves 102, with parts of the rollers exposed to the outside of the housing 10. By providing the grooves 102 and disposing the rollers 12 in the grooves 102, the friction between the charging head 1 and the charging end of the AGV can be reduced by using the rollers 12 when docking the charging head 1 and the charging end of the AGV, so that the charging head 1 can be docked more adaptively with the charging end of the AGV. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 5, FIG. 6, and FIG. 7, in this embodiment, a guide slope 100 is provided at the end of the housing 10 away from the base 2. Specifically, in this embodiment, the guide slope 100 is a circular arc surface, but in other selectable embodiments, the guide slope 100 may be a flat surface. An inner surface structure that fits the guide slope 100 may be provided on the inner wall of the opening of the charging end of the AGV.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 8, FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the adaptive charging mechanism according to the present embodiment further includes a connection frame 6, a first floating assembly 7 and a second floating assembly 8. The first floating assembly 7 is provided between the second connection plate 4 and the connection frame 6, and the second floating assembly 8 is provided between the connection frame 6 and the base 2. The first floating assembly 7 is used to move the connection frame 6 along a first set direction when the charging head 1 is subjected to a pressing external force, and the second floating assembly 8 is used to move the connection frame 6 along the left-right direction of the first set direction when the charging head 1 is subjected to a pressing external force. The first set direction is the same as the longitudinal direction of the charging head 1. If the longitudinal direction of the charging head 1 is the longitudinal direction, the first set direction is the longitudinal direction. By providing the first floating assembly 7 and the second floating assembly 8, the position adaptability of the charging head 1 in the longitudinal and left-right directions relative to the external charging terminal can be further improved. According to the inventor's research, the height of the charging end of the AGV from the ground is easy to control, so the position error in the vertical height direction between the charging end and the charging head 1 is very small. Therefore, if the adaptive charging mechanism of this embodiment is already provided with elastic columns, the charging head 1 can automatically adapt to the position of the charging end when there is a position error in the vertical height direction through the deformation of the elastic columns. Therefore, the adaptive charging mechanism of this embodiment does not need to arrange a floating assembly along the vertical height direction, which can reduce costs.

[0029] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 8, the base 2 includes a fixed plate 20 and a mounting frame 21 located on the other side of the fixed plate 20 with respect to the charging head 1, and the mounting frame 21 is slidably mounted on the fixed plate 20 along a first set direction. In some embodiments, the following manner can be adopted to realize the sliding installation of the mounting frame 21 on the fixed plate 20. The mounting frame 21 further includes a mounting plate 212 provided on the second side plate 211, a position limiting hole 2120 is provided on the mounting plate 20, a position limiting post is provided on the fixed plate 20, the position limiting post is slidably inserted into the position limiting hole 2120, and the position limiting post is slidably inserted into the position limiting hole 2120, so that the mounting frame 21 is slidably mounted on the fixed plate 20. It can be easily understood that in an optional embodiment, the position limiting hole may be provided on the fixed plate 20, and the position limiting post may be provided on the mounting plate 212 accordingly.

[0030] In this embodiment, the connection frame 6 includes a first substrate 60 and a first side plate 61 provided on both sides of the first substrate 60, the mounting frame 21 includes a second substrate 210 and a second side plate 211 provided on both sides of the second substrate 210, the first floating assembly 7 includes a first spring 70 provided between the second connection plate 4 and the first substrate 60, and the second floating assembly 8 includes a second spring 80 provided between the first side plate 61 and the second side plate 211. In this manner, the first spring 70 and the second spring 80 can be used to realize the expansion and contraction deformation. If there is an error in the position between the charging end of the AGV and the charging head 1 in the left-right direction, pressure is applied to the charging head 1 during the process of docking the charging end and the charging head 1, and the charging head 1 breaks down the acting force into a force along the front-rear direction and a force along the left-right direction, thereby causing a certain compression deformation in the elastic member 5, and the first spring 70 and the second spring 80 can also cause corresponding compression deformation. In this process, the charging head 1, the first connecting plate 3, the second connecting plate 4, the mounting frame 21 and the connecting frame 6 all move in the front-rear and left-right directions.

[0031] In this embodiment, the first floating assembly 7 further includes a linear bearing 71 provided on the first substrate 60 and a mounting shaft 72 slidably provided within the linear bearing 71. The first spring 70 is fitted onto the outside of the mounting shaft 72, with one end abutting the second connecting plate 4 and the other end abutting the linear bearing 71. The second floating assembly 8 further includes a connecting shaft 81 penetrating the two first side plates 61 and the two second side plates 211, and the second spring 80 is fitted onto the outside of the connecting shaft 81. Compared with the method of arranging the springs using a guide rail and a slider, this configuration adopted in this embodiment can realize quick assembly of the first spring 70 and the second spring 80, simplify the assembly operation, and both the mounting frame 21 and the connecting frame 6 have a U-shaped frame structure, which also reduces the manufacturing cost. It is easily understood that in some alternative embodiments, the adaptive charging mechanism may arrange the first and second springs in the embodiments of the present invention in a manner that arranges the springs using guide rails and sliders.

[0032] 10, the adaptive charging mechanism further includes an oil-free bushing 82, which has a cylindrical portion 820 fitted around the outside of the connecting shaft 81 and a flange portion 821 extending radially from the opening of the cylindrical portion 820. One end of the second spring 80 abuts against the flange portion 821, and the other end abuts against the second side plate 211. The first side plate 61 is provided with a through hole through which the connecting shaft 81 passes, and the cylindrical portion 820 is inserted into the through hole. By providing the oil-free bushing 82, it is possible to prevent the second spring 80 from directly abutting against the first side plate 61. When the charging head 1 and the external charging terminal are docked, even if the first side plate 61 moves, the oil-free bushing 82 provided can prevent the second spring 80 from being compressed to the extent that it rubs against the connecting shaft 81. Therefore, by providing the oil-free bush 82, the service life of the second spring 80 can be significantly improved.

[0033] As described above, the adaptive charging mechanism according to the embodiment of the present invention provides the elastic member 5 (e.g., elastic pillar) so that the charging head 1 can have the ability to fine-adjust the angle error (including the ability to adjust the position error in the forward / backward direction, left / right direction, and height direction) at any angle relative to the external charging terminal. Furthermore, the two-stage floating mechanism such as the first floating assembly 7 and the second floating assembly 8 allows the charging head 1 to have the ability to adjust the position error in the forward / backward direction and left / right direction relative to the external charging terminal.

[0034] As shown in Fig. 11, when the adaptive charging mechanism according to the embodiment of the present invention is applied, the adaptive charging mechanism may be applied to a charging station. The charging station includes a power source and the adaptive charging mechanism according to the embodiment of the present invention. The charging head 1 is electrically connected to the power source through a cable. In some embodiments, the charging station may include a cabinet body 9, in which the power source is installed.

[0035] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention includes, but is not limited to, the contents described in the accompanying drawings and the above specific embodiments. Any modifications made without departing from the principles of the function and structure of the present invention are included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
