[0001] The present invention relates to a charger.

[0002] A charger is a device used to charge a battery.

[0003] An example of a charger may be an electric vehicle charger that charges a vehicle such as an electric vehicle, and electrical energy is supplied to the battery of the electric vehicle by connecting a charging connector provided at the end of a charging cable to a connection inlet installed in the electric vehicle.

[0004] The charger includes a power module to which a charging cable is connected and a charger body that forms a space in which the power module is accommodated.

[0005] The user can connect the connector (charging gun or plug) provided on the charging cable to the vehicle after removing it from the charger body.

[0006] U.S. Patent Publication No. US 11,260,767 B2 (patent dated May 01, 2022) discloses a cable recovery system including a wire connected to a charging cable, the cable recovery system including an enclosure having an opening formed therein, a movable pulley movably received in the enclosure, a movable counterweight connected to the movable pulley, a ring fixed to the interior of the enclosure, a pulley disposed around the opening of the enclosure, and a wire having one end connected to the ring and the other end connected to the cable, the wire elevating the movable pulley.

[0007] The present embodiment provides a charger in which the total weight of the weight can be easily changed according to the weight of the charging cable.

[0008] A charger according to the present embodiment includes a body installed in a frame and having a space formed therein; a weight assembly movably accommodated therein; and a wire connected to a charging cable and elevating the weight assembly, wherein the weight assembly may include a tray having an inner space formed therein; and at least one weight accommodated in the inner space.

[0009] The charger may further include first and second fixed pulleys installed on the body.

[0010] The weight assembly may further include a lifting pulley disposed on the tray; and a wire connector disposed on the tray and connected to the ear.

[0011] The wire can be sequentially wound around the first fixed pulley, the lifting pulley, and the second fixed pulley.

[0012] The weight assembly may further include a flow control roller disposed on the tray and in contact with the inner surface of the tray.

[0013] The roller for controlling the flow may further include a first roller that rotates around a central axis in the forward-rear direction; and a second roller that rotates around a central axis in the left-right direction.

[0014] The roller for controlling the flow may include an upper roller rotatably arranged on the upper surface of the tray; and a lower roller rotatably arranged on the lower surface of the tray.

[0015] The weight assembly may further include a front cover coupled to the tray to prevent the weight from dislodging.

[0016] The charger may further include a left cover coupled to the front of the body; and a right cover coupled to the front of the body and spaced apart from the left cover in the left-right direction.

[0017] The body may be formed with a wire penetration hole through which a wire may pass, and the wire may extend to the outside of the body and be connected to a charging cable.

[0018] The charging cable may include a cable body extending outside the charger body.

[0019] One end of the wire can be connected to the weight assembly, and the other end of the wire can be connected to the cable body.

[0020] The charger may further include a stopper positioned on the upper surface of the lower portion of the body.

[0021] The weight assembly may further include a weight balancer disposed on the bottom of the tray.

[0022] The stopper may have a protrusion protruding therefrom, and the bottom of the weight balancer may have a groove formed into which the protrusion is inserted.

[0023] The charger may further include a top stopper positioned so as to protrude toward the inner space of the tray.

[0024] According to the present embodiment, the wire is connected to the tray, and at least one weight is accommodated in the tray, so that the number of weights can be varied depending on the weight of the charging cable.

[0025] In addition, the length of the wire accommodated inside the charger body can be maximized, thereby maximizing the operating length of the wire extending outside the charger body.

[0026] Additionally, even though the charger body is small, the wires can be accommodated as much as possible inside the body.

[0027] In addition, the roller for controlling the flow placed on the tray comes into contact with the inner surface of the tray, so that the frictional resistance between the tray and the body can be minimized, and the tray can be raised and lowered smoothly.

[0028] Additionally, the front cover installed on the tray can prevent the weight from being accidentally removed.

[0029] In addition, the left cover placed on the body; the right cover can prevent the weight assembly from being accidentally dislodged and help the weight assembly to be raised and lowered stably.

[0030] Additionally, the stopper can minimize the impact caused by the dropping of the weight assembly.

[0031] In addition, the upper limit height of the weight assembly can be determined by the top stopper, and damage to the first and second fixed pulleys by the weight assembly can be prevented.

[0159] Four second rollers (65B) may be provided. The four second rollers (65B) may include a pair of rear rollers that roll along the rear plate (53) of the body (5), a front left roller that rolls along the left cover (9), and a front right roller that rolls along the right cover (10).

[0160] FIG. 8 is a perspective view showing the lower plate of the body when the weight assembly according to the present embodiment is raised.

[0161] The wire device (4) may further include a stopper (70) arranged on the upper surface of the lower plate (65) of the body (5).

[0162] When the external force is removed, the weight assembly (6) can fall to the lower plate (65) of the body (5) by its own weight, and the stopper (70) can minimize the impact generated when the weight assembly (6) falls.

[0163] The stopper (70) may be a bottom stopper formed of an elastic material such as rubber.

[0164] The stopper (70) may have a protrusion (70a or screw).

[0165] A groove (69a) into which a protrusion (70a) is inserted can be formed on the bottom surface of the weight balancer (69).

[0166] When the weight assembly (6) is dropped, the protrusion (70a) of the stopper (70) can be inserted into the groove (69a), and the weight assembly (6) can be dropped stably without distortion.

[0167] The above description is merely an example of the technical idea of ​​the present invention, and those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications and variations can be made without departing from the essential characteristics of the present invention.

[0168] Accordingly, the embodiments disclosed in the present invention are not intended to limit the technical idea of ​​the present invention but to explain it, and the scope of the technical idea of ​​the present invention is not limited by these embodiments.

[0169] The scope of protection of the present invention should be interpreted by the claims below, and all technical ideas within the scope equivalent thereto should be interpreted as being included in the scope of the rights of the present invention.
