This application claims priority to and benefits of Chinese Patent Application No. 201911203639.9, entitled “VEHICLE POWER SUPPLY DEVICE” and filed by BYD Co., Ltd. on Nov. 29, 2019. The entire content of the above-referenced application is incorporated herein by reference.
The present disclosure relates to the field of vehicle power supply technologies, and more specifically, to a vehicle power supply device.
A liftable power supply device is usually used for power supply in new energy vehicles in the related art. Ascending or descending of the power supply device is implemented by a scissor-fork lifting mechanism. A drive device of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism performs driving by forms such as hydraulic pressure. The drive device swings in a drive process accordingly, resulting in poor stability. In addition, space occupied by the drive device is relatively large, which is not conducive to the overall structural arrangement of the power supply device.
The present disclosure aims to resolve at least one of the technical problems existing in the related art. Accordingly, an objective of the present disclosure is to provide a vehicle power supply device. The vehicle power supply device can have advantages such as high stability, high space utilization, and favorable overall structural arrangement.

The drive device of the vehicle power supply device according to this embodiment of the present disclosure includes the drive unit and the transmission unit, and the transmission unit can convert the rotational movement into the linear movement. Therefore, due to a change of a transmission path of a driving force, forms of the drive unit can be more diverse.

A vehicle power supply device 1 according to the embodiments of the present disclosure is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The vehicle power supply device 1 may be used as a current collecting device and connected with a vehicle, and may alternatively be used as a current supply device and connected with a charger.
As shown in
The scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 is mounted on the fixed base 100. The power supply head 300 is mounted on the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 and is driven by the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 to ascend or descend. The drive device 400 includes a drive unit 700 and a transmission unit 800 configured to convert rotational movement into linear movement. The drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 are stacked along a lifting direction of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200. For example, the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 are stacked along an up-down direction. The drive unit 700 is connected with the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 by the transmission unit 800 to drive the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 to ascend or descend.
The drive device 400 of the vehicle power supply device 1 according to this embodiment of the present disclosure includes the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800, and the transmission unit 800 can convert the rotational movement into the linear movement. Therefore, due to a change of a transmission path of a driving force, forms of the drive unit 700 can be more diverse, for example, a manner other than hydraulic pressure, such as a motor, may be used.
In addition, because the drive unit 700 is connected with the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 by the transmission unit 800 capable of changing a force transmission path, that is, the drive unit 700 is not directly connected with the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200, when the drive device 400 drives the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 to ascend or descend, the drive unit 700 of the drive device does not swing accordingly, so that the stability is improved, and the smoothness of the movement of the power supply head 300 is improved, thereby facilitating the alignment during charging.
In addition, because the drive device 400 integrates the transmission unit 800 and based on a change made by the transmission unit 800 to a driving force path, the arrangement of the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 may be more flexible, that is, the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 are stacked along a lifting direction of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200. To satisfy the ascending and descending of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200, sufficient space needs to be reserved along a lifting direction of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200, and the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 are stacked along the direction, so that space along the lifting direction of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 may be fully utilized, and horizontal space occupied by the drive device 400 may be reduced, thereby improving the utilization of space, which is beneficial to the arrangement of an overall structure of the vehicle power supply device 1. In addition, when the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 is in a folded state, specific space is still required along the lifting direction to accommodate the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 in the folded state. Provided that it is ensured that an overall height of the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 after being stacked is less than a height of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 in the folded state, the folding of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 may not be affected. That is, when the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 are stacked, not only the occupied horizontal space is reduced, but also an overall height of the vehicle power supply device 1 is not affected along a height direction.
Therefore, the vehicle power supply device 1 according to this embodiment of the present disclosure has advantages such as high stability and favorable arrangement of an overall structure.
In some embodiments, as shown in
Specifically, the drive device 400 further includes a housing 900, the housing 900 is mounted on the fixed base 100, the transmission unit 800 is arranged in the housing 900, and the drive unit 700 is mounted in the housing 900 and extends into the housing 900 to be connected with the transmission unit 800. The housing 900 can not only fix the drive device 400 on the fixed base 100 as a whole, but also integrate the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 into a whole and play a protective role.
In some embodiments, as shown in
The driving screw 810 is in transmission connection with the drive unit 700 and is driven by the drive unit 700 to rotate. The driven screw 820 is in threaded connection with the driving screw 810 and converts rotational movement of the driving screw 810 into linear movement of the driven screw 820. The driven screw 820 is connected with the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200.
For example, the driven screw 820 is in a hollow structure, the driving screw 810 extends into the driven screw 820, the driving screw 810 is configured with an external thread 811, and the driven screw 820 is configured with an internal thread 821 engaged with the external thread 811. The external thread 811 and the internal thread 821 may be respectively configured on portions of the driving screw 810 and the driven screw 820 with relatively large diameters.
Therefore, the drive unit 700 drives the driving screw 810 to rotate. When the driving screw 810 rotates, the driven screw 820 is driven to linearly move, and the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 is driven to ascend or descend by using the linear movement of the driven screw 820.
In some embodiments, one of the driven screw 820 and the housing 900 is provided with a sliding groove 870 and an other of the driven screw and the housing is provided with a sliding rib 880. The sliding rib 880 and the sliding groove 870 are slidably engaged with each other and extend along an axial direction of the driven screw 820.
For example, the sliding groove 870 is arranged on an outer peripheral surface of a portion with a relatively large diameter of the driven screw 820 and extends along an axial direction of the driven screw 820. The sliding rib 880 is arranged on the housing 900, and a length of the sliding rib 880 is relatively large. The sliding rib 880 is slidably engaged with the sliding groove 870 to circumferentially position the driven screw 820, prevent the driven screw 820 from rotating, and allow the driven screw 820 to slide along an axial direction. In this way, when the driving screw 810 rotates, the driven screw 820 linearly moves. To ensure the reliability of the engagement between the sliding rib 880 and the sliding groove 870, the sliding groove 870 may be arranged on a lower surface of the driven screw 820, and correspondingly, the sliding rib 880 is arranged on a bottom wall of the housing 900.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in
The driving wheel 830 is in transmission connection with a motor shaft of the motor, the driven wheel 840 is in transmission connection with the driving screw 810, and the transmission belt 850 is sleeved on the driving wheel 830 and the driven wheel 840.
After the motor runs, the motor shaft drives the driving wheel 830 to rotate, the driving wheel 830 drives the driven wheel 840 to rotate by the transmission belt 850, and the driven wheel 840 drives the driving screw 810 to rotate.
Therefore, the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 may be arranged side by side, that is, arranged in parallel along an axial direction, so that the drive unit 700 is arranged above the transmission unit 800 to construct a stacked arrangement manner.
A person skilled in the art may understand that, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, a specific form of the transmission unit 800 is not limited to the combination of a screw and a belt, and may alternatively be in the form of one of or a combination of more than one of a screw, a gear, a belt, and a rope pulley.
In some examples of the present disclosure, as shown in
The driven screw 820 is arranged in the cylindrical body 910, and the sliding rib 880 may be arranged on the cylindrical body 910. The plug 920 is arranged at an end of the cylindrical body 910, and an end of the driven screw 820 that is away from the driving screw 810 extends out from the plug 920. The intermediate cylinder 930 is arranged at an other end of the cylindrical body 910, and the driving screw 810 is supported in the intermediate cylinder 930 by the bearing 931. The intermediate cover 940 is arranged on the intermediate cylinder 930, and the drive unit 700 is mounted on the intermediate cover 940. The end cover 950 is arranged on the intermediate cover 940, and the driving wheel 830, the driven wheel 840, and the transmission belt 850 are arranged in the end cover 950.
Therefore, the housing 900 integrates the drive unit 700 and the transmission unit 800 into a whole, and the separate arrangement of the housing 900 facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the drive device 400 and facilitates later maintenance.
An end of the driven screw 820 that is away from the driving screw 810 (that is, an end extending out from the plug 920) is provided with a connector 860, and the driven screw 820 is connected with the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 by the connector 860.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in
Specifically, the fixed base 100 is horizontally arranged, and the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 is mounted on the fixed base 100 and may be contracted or extended along a vertical direction. The scissor-fork swing rod set 210 includes a number of pairs of swing rods 211, each pair of swing rods 211 includes two swing rods 211 that are cross-arranged and are hinged with each other, and ends of swing rods 211 of two adjacent pairs of swing rods 211 are separately hinged. By these hinging points, the swing rods 211 may be folded and unfolded, thereby implementing extending and contracting. The two swing rods 211 connected with the power supply head 300 are arranged on a horizontal plane on a side of the power supply head 300 close to the fixed base 100, and are respectively adjacent to a left end and a right end of the power supply head 300.
As shown in
For the vehicle power supply device 1 according to this embodiment of the present disclosure, by connecting the power supply head 300 with the ends of the two swing rods 211 of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200, the swing rods 20′ in the related art are saved. In this way, the structure is simpler, and the two swing rods 211 are cross-arranged, so that the power supply head 300 can move more smoothly and swing of the power supply head 300 is reduced, thereby facilitating the alignment during power supply and improving the reliability of power supply performance.
Therefore, the vehicle power supply device 1 according to this embodiment of the present disclosure can have advantages such as stable structure and movement, and favorable alignment for power supply.
It should be understood by a person skilled in the art that the form of the lifting mechanism in the present disclosure is not limited to the scissor-fork lifting mechanism. For example, the scissor-fork lifting mechanism is replaced with a multi-link lifting mechanism, a guide telescopic column lifting mechanism, a linear slide rail lifting mechanism, or the like, which also falls within the scope of protection of the present disclosure, is a simple replacement or variant based on the present disclosure, and does not depart from the principle and purpose of the present disclosure.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in
In some embodiments, the fixed base 100 is provided with a first guide rail 110, the other of the pair of swing rods 211 that is closest to the fixed base 100 is hinged with a first slide rod 240, the first slide rod 240 is slidably engaged with the first guide rail 110, and the drive unit 700 is connected with the first slide rod 240 by the transmission unit 800.

For example, two lowermost swing rods 211 of the scissor-fork swing rod set 210 have one swing rod 211 hinged with the fixed base 100 and an other swing rod 211 hinged with the first slide rod 240. A front side and a rear side of the first guide rail 110 are respectively provided with the first grooves 111, and the first grooves 111 extend along a left-right direction. The first slide rod 240 is provided with the first slider 241, and the first slider 241 may be connected with the first slide rod 240 by a threaded fastener (for example, a bolt). The first slider 241 is configured with the first clamping jaw 242, and the first clamping jaw 242 is slidably engaged with the first groove 111. The first clamping jaw 242 cannot separate due to being blocked by an upper wall of the first groove 111, and can only slide along a length direction of the first groove 111.
Therefore, through the arrangement of the first guide rail 110 and the first slide rod 240, the other of the pair of swing rods 211 that is closest to the fixed base 100 is slidably mounted on the fixed base 100, and the first guide rail 110 is provided with the first groove 111. The first slide rod 240 is provided with the first slider 241 including the first clamping jaw 242. Through the engagement between the first clamping jaw 242 and the first groove 111, the stability of the first slide rod 240 on the first guide rail 110 can be ensured, and the first slide rod 240 can be prevented from separating from the first guide rail 110.
In some examples of the present disclosure, as shown in

In this way, the working efficiency of the drive device 400 is the highest, the first slide rod 240 and the first guide rail 110 are not prone to be damaged, and the structure is stable. In addition, the drive device 400 pushes the first slide rod 240 horizontally, so that the stability of the power supply head 300 during movement may be further improved.
Certainly, the push rod 410 may alternatively be arranged at a specific angle to the fixed base 100, provided that it is ensured that the push rod 410 can be normally extended and contracted.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in

For example, two uppermost swing rods 211 of the scissor-fork swing rod set 210 have one swing rod 211 hinged with the power supply head 300 and an other swing rod 211 hinged with a rear end of the second slide rod 250. A front side and a rear side of the second guide rail 310 are provided with the second grooves 311, and the second grooves 311 extend along a left-right direction. The second slide rod 250 is provided with the second slider 251, and the second slider 251 may be connected with the second slide rod 250 by a threaded fastener (for example, a bolt). The second slider 251 is configured with the second clamping jaw, and the second clamping jaw is slidably engaged with the second groove 311. The second clamping jaw cannot separate due to being blocked by a lower wall of the second groove 311, and can only slide along a length direction of the second groove 311.
Therefore, through the arrangement of the second guide rail 310 and the second slide rod 250, the other of the pair of swing rods 211 that is farthest to the fixed base 100 is slidably mounted on the power supply head 300, and the second guide rail 310 is provided with the second groove 311. The second slide rod 250 is provided with the second slider 251 including the second clamping jaw. Through the engagement between the second clamping jaw and the second groove 311, the stability of the second slide rod 250 on the second guide rail 310 can be ensured, and the second slide rod 250 can be prevented from separating from the second guide rail 310.
To ensure the stability of the power supply head 300, a position of the second slide rod 250 and a position of the first slide rod 240 may be arranged in parallel. For example, an example in which both the second slide rod 250 and the first slide rod 240 are arranged on a right side of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 is shown in the accompanying drawings.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in
One of the pair of swing rods 211 that is closest to the fixed base 100 in each of the scissor-fork swing rod sets 210 is hinged on the fixed base 100, an other of the pair of swing rods 211 that is closest to the fixed base 100 in each of the scissor-fork swing rod sets 210 is hinged with a first slide rod 240, one of the pair of swing rods 211 that is farthest from the fixed base 100 in each of the scissor-fork swing rod sets 210 is hinged on the power supply head 300, and an other of the pair of swing rods 211 that is farthest from the fixed base 100 in each of the scissor-fork swing rod sets 210 is hinged with a second slide rod 250.
For example, a number of scissor-fork swing rod sets 210 are spaced apart along a front-rear direction. A number of connecting rods 260 are respectively connected with swing rods 211 arranged on an inner side of two adjacent scissor-fork swing rod sets 210. For an uppermost pair of swing rods 211 of the number of scissor-fork swing rod sets 210, a swing rod 211 on a left side is hinged on the power supply head 300, and a swing rod 211 on a right side is hinged on the second slide rod 250. For a lowermost pair of swing rods 211 of the number of scissor-fork swing rod sets 210, a swing rod 211 on a left side is hinged on the fixed base 100, and a swing rod 211 on a right side is hinged on the first slide rod 240.
In this way, the arrangement of the number of scissor-fork swing rod sets 210 can improve the stability of the power supply head 300 during ascending and descending. The arrangement of the connecting rod 260 can stabilize relative positions of the number of scissor-fork swing rod sets 210, thereby improving the stability of the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200.
In some embodiments, the scissor-fork lifting mechanism 200 further includes a push rod 410, and the push rod 410 is connected between first slide rods 240 of the two adjacent scissor-fork swing rod sets 210. The drive device 400 is mounted on the fixed base 100 and drives the number of first slide rods 240 by the push rod 410.
A person skilled in the art may understand that, in the foregoing embodiment in which two or more scissor-fork swing rod sets 210 are arranged, a push rod 410 may be arranged between first slide rods 240 of each two adjacent scissor-fork swing rod sets 210. In other words, the quantity of push rods 410 is one less than the quantity of scissor-fork swing rod sets 210, and is the same as the quantity of first slide rods 240. When a number of push rods 410 are arranged, the number of push rods 410 are all connected with the drive device 400, to cause the drive device 400 to drive the number of push rods 410 to synchronously drive the number of first slide rods 240.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in
Two swing rods 211 of the pair of swing rods 211 that is farthest from the fixed base 100 are mounted on the base frame 320, and the support plates 330 are mounted on the base frame 320 by insulators 370. The electrode plate 340 and the signal plate 350 are respectively mounted on the corresponding support plates 330. For example, the electrode plate 340 and the signal plate 350 are respectively mounted on the corresponding support plates 330 by elastic members 360. The elastic member 360 may be a compression spring, a leaf spring, or a plastic elastic member.
