Detailed Description
In order to make the technical solutions better understood by those skilled in the art, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.
In some structures described in the specification, claims and drawings of this application, the terms "first," second, "and the like are included to distinguish different elements, units, mechanisms, and the like, and do not denote any order or importance, nor do they limit the types of" first "and" second.
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It is to be understood that the embodiments described are only a few embodiments of the present application and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
Fig. 1, fig. 2, and fig. 3 are schematic structural diagrams illustrating a charging device according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown, the charging device may include: main part 4, trigger mechanism 6, power supply unit 7 and electrically conductive subassembly 2. Wherein the main body 4 comprises a connection frame 3 for connecting a device 8 to be charged. The trigger mechanism 6 is arranged on the main body 4 and is used for being triggered to generate a trigger action when the device to be charged 8 is connected to the connecting frame 3. And the conductive component 2 is electrically connected with the power supply element 7 and is in mechanical linkage connection with the trigger mechanism 6. The trigger mechanism 6 generates a trigger action to trigger the conductive member 2 to switch positions from a position at a distance from the device to be charged 8 to a position electrically connected to the charging terminal of the device to be charged. Specifically, the conductive member 2 has at least two states, such as a receiving state, an electrical connection state, and the like. After the conductive component 2 is triggered by the trigger action generated by the trigger mechanism 6, the conductive component 2 can be switched from the storage state to the electrical connection state. Wherein, in the accommodating state, the conductive component 2 is accommodated on the main body 4. And in the electric connection state, the conductive component 2 is electrically connected with the charging end of the equipment to be charged. When the conductive assembly 2 is in the storage state, the conductive assembly may be in a hidden storage state or an exposed storage state.
Specifically, the position of the conductive member 2 may be switched from a hidden position to be exposed, and then gradually approaches the charging terminal of the device to be charged 8 until the charging terminal is electrically connected, as shown in fig. 14. Or, in the two positions switched by the conductive assembly 2, the conductive assembly 2 is in an exposed state, and as shown in the embodiment shown in fig. 1, the conductive assembly 2 is in an exposed state in the whole process of moving from the initial position to the position of electrically connecting with the device to be charged. The process of the triggering action generated by the triggering mechanism 6 to drive the conductive member 2 to electrically connect with the charging terminal will be described in detail below.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the main body 4 is provided with a receiving groove, and the conductive assembly 2 is received in the receiving groove. Fig. 4 shows a state in which the conductive member 2 is moved out of the receiving recess to an electrically connected state to be electrically connected to the charging terminal of the device to be charged. Fig. 3 shows an intermediate state between the accommodation state to the electrical connection state of the conductive member 2.
In the example shown in fig. 21, the conductive member 2 is in the accommodated state, which is hidden in the accommodated state. Fig. 22 shows the conductive member 2 switched from the hidden housed state to the electrical connection state. Since the structural diagram of the device to be charged is hidden in fig. 21, the illustration of the electrical connection of the conductive member 2 to the charging terminal of the device to be charged is not visible. In essence, as can be seen in fig. 20, when the conductive element 2 is exposed as shown in fig. 21, the conductive element 2 is already electrically connected to the charging terminal of the device to be charged.
Further, in the present embodiment, during the process of connecting the device to be charged 8 to the connecting frame 3, the triggering mechanism 6 is triggered by the device to be charged 8 being pressed downward in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the main body 4. For example, in the example shown in fig. 1 and 15, the connecting frame 3 is a cylindrical structure protruding from the surface of the main body 4, and the axis of the cylindrical structure is perpendicular to the surface of the main body 4. In the process that the device to be charged 8 is connected with the connecting frame 3, the device to be charged 8 is pressed downwards along the direction vertical to the surface of the main body 4 to trigger the trigger mechanism 6 to generate trigger action.
Here, it should be noted that: the structure of the connection frame, how the device to be charged 8 is connected to the connection frame, the specific structure of the trigger mechanism corresponding to the structure of the different connection frames, and the like will be described in detail below.
The power supply element in this embodiment may include a power connector (DC connector), one end of the power connector may be connected to the output end of the power adapter, and the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the other end are electrically connected to the conductive assembly through a wire. The power adapter is a power converter which is subjected to transformation, rectification and voltage stabilization, outputs direct current, and can be understood as a low-voltage stabilized power supply under the condition of meeting power.
Referring to fig. 2, 3 and 4, the conductive member 2 in the present embodiment may include an elastic conductive member, as shown in fig. 4, which is in a deformed state when electrically connected to the charging terminal 81 to maintain a pressed electrical contact with the charging terminal 81. The elastic conductive member is in pressed electrical contact with the charging terminal 81, so that the electrical connection between the conductive member and the charging terminal is more reliable, and the condition of virtual connection of a circuit can not occur.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the elastic conductive member includes: two conductive terminals 21 and two conductive springs 22. The two conductive terminals 21 are electrically connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the power supply element 7, respectively. And two conductive springs 22 respectively connected to the two conductive terminals 21. For example, the conductive spring is sleeved outside the conductive terminal, or one end of the conductive spring abuts against one end of the conductive terminal. One end of the conductive spring 22 is connected to the corresponding conductive terminal to move along with the conductive terminal, so as to generate elastic deformation.
The trigger mechanism 6 in this embodiment can be implemented by various structures. Two realizable structures are exemplified herein and described in detail below.
First realizing structure of trigger mechanism
As shown in fig. 2 to 7, the trigger mechanism 6 includes a rotating frame. The rotating frame has a rotating shaft 61, a trigger bracket 62 rotating around the rotating shaft 61, and a follower bracket 63 rotating around the rotating shaft 61. The trigger bracket 62 is configured to be triggered by the device to be charged. The trigger bracket 62 is triggered when subjected to a force applied by the device to be charged 8, the direction of the force being tangential to the direction of rotation of the trigger bracket. In the embodiment shown in fig. 2, 3 and 4, during the downward connection of the device to be charged 8 to the connecting frame 3 in the illustrated orientation, a downward force is applied to the trigger bracket 62, that is, the trigger bracket 62 is triggered to rotate around the rotating shaft 61. The follow-up bracket 63 is provided with the conductive component 2, and is configured to rotate around the rotating shaft 61 when the triggering bracket 62 is triggered to rotate around the rotating shaft 61, so as to drive the conductive component 2 to gradually approach the charging end 81 of the device to be charged 8 until the conductive component is electrically connected with the charging end 81.
In specific implementation, the triggering bracket 62 and the following bracket 63 may be integrally formed. For example, the trigger bracket and the follower bracket are made of plastic materials, and the trigger bracket and the follower bracket can be prepared by a one-step plastic forming process.
The charging device and the equipment to be charged have one-to-one relationship in the prior art, and the interchangeability of the charging device and the equipment to be charged is poor. Namely, charging devices with charging equipment of different appearance sizes and models need to be designed in a matched manner. At present, the product is updated rapidly, and the appearance of the product can be changed greatly every time the product is updated. The position of the charging end on the machine body of the equipment to be charged can not be kept unchanged along with the limitation of the shape, so that the charging device matched with the charging end also needs to be replaced and matched with the charging device; the charging device needs to be updated synchronously with the product at present, so that the resources are required to be invested for the matched development of the charging device every time new product development is carried out, and the resources are required to be invested for maintaining the normal production of the new product charging device after mass production. In order to solve such problems, the charging device provided in the embodiments of the present application provides a degree of freedom in another direction, in addition to the movement of the conductive member 2 with the trigger mechanism 6. Specifically, as shown in fig. 2 to 7, the conductive member 2 is slidably connected to the follower bracket 63 so as to change the distance from the rotating shaft 61 during the rotation of the conductive member 2 around the rotating shaft 61.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5, 6 and 7, the following bracket 63 is provided with a slide rail 64 extending in a direction perpendicular to the rotating shaft 61. As shown in fig. 6, the slide rails 64 may be a chute track as shown. Of course, other types of protruding strip-shaped tracks and the like may be used besides the sliding groove track, and this embodiment is not limited in this respect. When the sliding rail 64 is a sliding groove rail as shown in the figure, the sliding block 23 (as shown in fig. 6) adapted to the sliding groove rail needs to be disposed on the conductive component. The slide 23 can be inserted into the runner track and slide therein. The conductive component 2 is connected with the following bracket 63 through the slide rail 61, and a supporting spring 9 is arranged between the conductive component 2 and the following bracket 63 in the extending direction of the slide rail 61. The number of the supporting springs 9 may be one or more, which is not limited in this embodiment.
Further, as shown in fig. 6 and 7, the follower bracket 63 has two mounting cavities; one first mounting cavity 631 close to the rotating shaft 61 is used for mounting the power supply element 7, the other second mounting cavity 632 far away from the rotating shaft 61 is used for mounting the conductive component 2, and the wall of the second mounting cavity 632 is provided with the slide rail 61. As shown in fig. 6, the following support 63 may be provided with a slide rail 61 and a limiting rib 65. The limiting ribs 65 limit the conductive member 2 in the space defined by the conductive member 2 to limit the degrees of freedom of the conductive member 2 in other directions than the degree of freedom along the slide rail 61.
The opening directions of the two mounting cavities 631 and 632 may be opposite. As shown in fig. 6 and 7, the first mounting cavity 631 has two directional openings. The second mounting cavity 632 also has a two-way opening. More specifically, the first mounting cavity 631 has an opening in a direction of fig. 6, and an opening in a direction of b in fig. 6. The second mounting cavity 632 has an opening in the direction of a 'in fig. 6 and 7, and an opening in the direction of b' in fig. 6 and 7. Wherein, the direction a is opposite to the direction a ', and the direction b is opposite to the direction b'.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 8a and 8b, the follower support 63 includes: a first sidewall 633, a second sidewall 634, and a bent arm 635. Wherein the first sidewall 633 and the second sidewall 634 are oppositely disposed. A bent wall 635 is disposed between the first sidewall 633 and the second sidewall 634. The bending wall 635 has a partition wall 6351, a first bottom wall 6352 and a second bottom wall 6353; the first bottom wall 6352 and the second bottom wall 6533 are respectively located at two opposite ends of the partition wall 6351 and extend in opposite directions. The first side wall 633, the second side wall 634, the partition wall 634 and the first bottom wall 6352 form the first mounting cavity 631; the first side wall 633, the second side wall 634, the partition wall 634 and the second bottom wall 6353 form the second mounting cavity 632. In one embodiment, the first sidewall 633, the second sidewall 634, and the curved wall 635 may be integrally formed. Because of installing power supply unit 7 in the first installation cavity 631, install conducting component 2 in the second installation cavity 632, power supply unit 7 with conducting component 2 adopts the wire to connect, and is corresponding can be provided with the line hole on the partition wall 6351, and the wire accessible is crossed the line jogged joint power supply unit 7 and conducting component 2.
The above-mentioned slide rails 64 may be provided on the first side wall 633, or the second side wall 634, or the first side wall 633 and the second side wall 634. At least one of the first side wall 633, the second side wall 634 and the second bottom wall 6353 is provided with the above-mentioned position-limiting rib 65. A wall surface of the partition wall 6351 located in the second mounting cavity 632 may be provided with a spring seat 91 for mounting the supporting spring 9. The trigger bracket 62 may be disposed on a wall of the first bottom wall 6352 facing away from the first mounting cavity 631.
In order to avoid impurities entering the first mounting cavity 631 and affecting the electrical connection effect, as shown in fig. 8b, a first cover plate 67 is disposed at an opening of the first mounting cavity 631 to cover the first mounting cavity 631 to form a closed cavity. As shown in fig. 8b, the outer wall of the first cover plate 67 is flush with the second bottom wall 6353 of the second mounting cavity 632. In specific implementation, the first cover plate 67 may be connected to the following bracket 63 through a snap structure or a screw.
With continued reference to fig. 6 and 7, the conductive assembly provided in this embodiment may be implemented as follows. Specifically, the conductive member 2 may include: a component housing 10 and a resilient conductive member. The elastic conductive member includes two conductive terminals 21 and two conductive springs 22. As shown in fig. 5, 6 and 7, the two conductive springs 22 are connected to the two conductive terminals 21, respectively. Specifically, one end of the conductive spring 22 and one end of the conductive terminal 21 are abutted in an assembling relationship through an assembling process. The component housing 10 is disposed in the second mounting cavity 632 through the sliding rail 64, the component housing 10 has an accommodating cavity, and the component housing 10 is provided with a through hole 103. At least part of the elastic conductive member is accommodated in the accommodating cavity, and can penetrate through the through hole 103 to extend out of the assembly shell 10 for being electrically connected with the charging terminal. In the sliding rail extending direction, the supporting spring 9 is provided between the module case 10 and the cavity partition (i.e., the partition wall 6351 mentioned above) between the two mounting cavities.
Still further, the module case 10 includes a first case 101 and a second case 102. The first housing 101 and the second housing 102 may be connected by various connection methods, such as a snap-fit structure, a structure connected by a connector (e.g., a structure of a threaded hole and a screw), and the like. The through hole 103 is formed in the first shell 101; the second housing 102 is provided with a structure for stabilizing the conductive spring 22, such as a cross-shaped protrusion shown in fig. 6, which can be used as a spring base for stabilizing the conductive spring 22. In addition, the second housing 102 may further have a positioning hole 103, and the first housing 101 may have a positioning post 104 engaged with the positioning hole 103. When the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are assembled, the positioning posts 104 and the positioning holes 103 can be used to position the housings and then perform assembly connection (e.g., snap-fit connection). After the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are connected, one end of the conductive spring 22 abuts against the inner wall of the first housing 101, and the other end abuts against the conductive terminal 21.
In addition, the limiting ribs 65 are mentioned above, but the function of the limiting ribs 65 is not explained. The function of the spacing ribs 65 will be explained here in connection with the module housing 10. The limiting ribs 65 extend along the length of the slide rails 64. With the embodiment shown in fig. 6, the distance between the two limiting ribs 65 disposed on the second bottom wall of the second mounting cavity 632 is equal to the width of the second housing 102, so as to limit the degree of freedom of the second housing 102 of the module case 10 in the width direction. The wall surfaces of the first side wall 633 and the second side wall 634 located in the second mounting cavity 632 are provided with two limiting ribs 65 extending along the length direction of the sliding rail 64, and the distance between the two limiting ribs 65 is equal to the thickness of the first casing 101, so as to limit the degree of freedom of the first casing 101 of the component housing 10 in the thickness direction thereof. Referring to fig. 6, the width of the second housing 102, i.e., the dimension of the second housing 102 in the cc' direction, is shown. Wherein the cc ' direction is perpendicular to the bb ' direction and perpendicular to the aa ' direction. The thickness of the first shell 101, i.e. the dimension of the first shell 101 in the bb' direction.
Further, as shown in fig. 6 and 7, a protruding plate 1011 extending to the first mounting cavity is further provided on the module housing; in the direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the slide rail 64, as shown in fig. 5, the protruding plate 1011 covers the supporting spring 9 and can slide with the assembly case 10 along the slide rail 64 to the upper side of the first bottom wall 6352 of the first mounting cavity 631. The arrangement of the extension plate 1011 can prevent the supporting spring 9 from being exposed outside, is attractive in appearance, and can also prevent large impurities from entering the space where the supporting spring 9 is located and influencing the work of the supporting spring 9.
Referring to fig. 8b, the rotation shaft 61 is positioned above the first mounting cavity 631 in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide rail (i.e., the aa 'direction shown in fig. 6) (i.e., the bb' direction shown in fig. 6). The trigger bracket 62 forms an obtuse angle with the follower bracket 63 (more specifically, the second bottom wall 6353 in fig. 8 b). As shown in fig. 8b, the obtuse angle θ between the trigger bracket 62 and the follower bracket 63 may be 100 to 150 degrees. In practice, the determination is made according to the structural parameters of the connection frame on the main body 4.
According to the charging device provided by the embodiment, in the process that the equipment to be charged is connected with the connecting frame, the conductive component can gradually approach the charging end of the equipment to be charged until the conductive component is electrically connected with the charging end. The operation of the charging device having the trigger mechanism shown in fig. 5 to 8b will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
For example, the connection frame 3 in this embodiment includes an insertion slot as shown in fig. 2. Referring to fig. 1, in a non-operating state (i.e. when no device to be charged is inserted), the conductive member 2 is located in a recessed groove of the main body 4. When the device to be charged is inserted into the insertion slot, as shown in fig. 2, the device to be charged 8 is inserted into the insertion slot and then first contacts the trigger bracket 62 of the trigger mechanism 6. In the process of continuously inserting the device to be charged 8 downwards, the trigger bracket 62 is continuously pressed down, so that the trigger bracket 62 rotates clockwise relative to the rotating shaft 61, the follower bracket 63 rotates clockwise around the rotating shaft 61, and the conductive component 2 mounted on the follower bracket 63 is driven to rotate clockwise, so that the conductive component 2 is automatically popped out of the concave groove and gradually approaches the device to be charged 8. Fig. 3 shows a schematic view of the situation when the conductive member 2 is approaching a certain position in the process. Fig. 4 is a schematic view showing a state where the conductive member 2 is electrically connected to the charging terminal of the device to be charged 8, at which time the device to be charged 8 has been inserted into the deep of the insertion groove of the connecting bracket 3 and the trigger bracket 62 of the trigger mechanism 6 is also pressed to the lowest position in the stable connection relation completed by the connecting bracket 3. The connection relationship between the device to be charged 8 and the connection frame 3 is stable, and the electrical connection relationship between the conductive assembly 2 and the charging end of the device to be charged 8 is stable. It is necessary to supplement that after the device to be charged 8 is inserted into the deep of the insertion slot of the connection frame 3 and a stable connection is completed, the elastic conductive member of the conductive member 2 is ensured to be in a deformed state to maintain a pressed electrical contact with the charging terminal.
From the processes shown in fig. 2 to 4, it can be seen that after the device to be charged 8 is inserted from the notch of the insertion slot straight into the depth of the insertion slot and completes the stable connection relationship with the connection bracket 3, the conductive member 2 (i.e., the follower bracket 63) is rotated by 90 degrees or approximately 90 degrees.
The charging device provided by the embodiment can realize automatic ejection of the conductive component 2, and can realize that the conductive component 2 gradually approaches to the charging end of the device to be charged along with the action of inserting the device to be charged 8 into the insertion slot. In addition, the charging device provided by the embodiment can also be suitable for the charging requirements of at least two types of equipment to be charged (provided that the sizes and/or structures of the different types of equipment to be charged are different). As shown in fig. 9, the device to be charged 8 does not interfere with the rotating conductive member 2 during the downward insertion. Referring to the apparatus to be charged 8 of the configuration shown in fig. 10a, the insertion portion 82 having the charging terminal is configured to retract more of the inside of the body than the apparatus to be charged of fig. 9. This allows interference with the conductive elements at the circled area 83 in fig. 10 a. In the charging device provided by the embodiment, the conductive component 2 can slide relative to the follow-up bracket, so that the interference problem can be solved. The operation of the conductive assembly is described below in conjunction with fig. 10a, 11, 12 and 13. Of these, fig. 11, 12 and 13 show the device to be charged 8 omitted for clarity of illustration of the conductive components, and only a part of the device to be charged 8 is shown.
Here, the structure of the module case 10 in the conductive module 2 in the charging device provided in the above embodiment is further limited. The module housing 10 has a chamfered surface 24 at the corner remote from the follower support 63. Alternatively, the module housing 10 is provided with a bevel (i.e. at 24 in fig. 10 b) at the edge remote from the follower support 63. The chamfer surface 24 or the inclined surface plays a role in guiding when the conductive component 2 interferes with an external structure, and damage caused by collision of sharp corners is avoided. More specifically, the chamfered surface 24 or the inclined surface is provided on the first housing 101 of the pack case 10.
Referring to fig. 10a, 11, 12 and 13, in the process of inserting the device to be charged 8 into the insertion slot of the connecting frame 3, the trigger bracket 62 is pressed down to rotate clockwise around the rotation shaft, and the follower bracket 63 rotates clockwise along with the trigger bracket 62, so as to drive the conductive assembly 2 to rotate from the state of fig. 10a to the state of fig. 11. At this time, due to the structural problem of the device to be charged, the device to be charged interferes with the conductive member 2, and the interference part of the device to be charged 8 and the conductive member 2 applies an external force to the conductive member 2 due to the existence of the downward pressure, so that the conductive member 2 moves relative to the follower bracket 63 along the direction of the arrow in fig. 11. Specifically, the conductive member 2 moves along the slide rail on the following bracket 63 to avoid hard collision with the device to be charged 8. The supporting spring 9 between the conductive member 2 and the follower bracket 63 is compressed. The device to be charged 8 moves downwards continuously, as shown in fig. 12, the conductive component 2 moves relative to the follower bracket 63 under the force, and the supporting spring 9 is compressed continuously. Referring to fig. 13, after the device to be charged 8 moves down to the position where it is stably connected to the connecting frame 3, the trigger bracket 62 is pressed to the lowest position, and the conductive member 2 returns to the original position by the elastic restoring force of the supporting spring 9 if there is a space (as shown in fig. 13) after the conductive member 2 passes through the interference with the device to be charged 8 from the position shown in fig. 12. As shown in fig. 13, the state of the conductive member 2 at this time is: the conductive terminal of the conductive assembly 2 contacts with the charging end of the device 8 to be charged, the conductive terminal receives the reaction of the charging end to push the conductive terminal to move towards the assembly shell, and the conductive terminal keeps a certain pressure with the charging end under the action of the reaction force of the conductive spring so as to realize the pressed electric connection (or called abutting electric contact) of the conductive terminal and the charging end. When a power supply element (such as a power adapter) in the second mounting cavity of the follow-up bracket 63 is powered on, the power adapter charges the device to be charged through the lead, the conductive spring and the conductive terminal.
Second implementation structure of trigger mechanism
Referring to fig. 14 and 15, the trigger mechanism includes: elastic component 11, action piece 12 and pushing piece 13. Wherein the elastic component 11 is used for generating deformation after being triggered by the device to be charged 8. The action piece 12 is connected with the elastic component 11 and generates corresponding action along with the deformation of the elastic component 11. The pushing piece 13 is linked with the action piece 12 and connected with the conductive component 2, and is used for generating thrust when the action piece 12 acts to push the conductive component 2 to gradually approach the charging end of the device to be charged 8 until the conductive component is electrically connected with the charging end.
In a specific implementation, the motion 12 generated by the deformation of the elastic component 11 may be a linear motion in the deformation direction of the elastic component 11. The linkage of the pushing member 13 and the acting member 12 can be understood as follows: the action piece 12 acts, and the pushing piece 13 acts correspondingly. The motion may include a motion mode (e.g., linear motion, rotational motion, etc.), a motion direction, and the like. Wherein, the action mode and the action direction of the action piece 12 and the pushing piece 13 can be the same (the action mode and the action direction are the same); or, the action of the action piece 12 is the same as the action mode of the pushing piece 13, but the action direction is different; alternatively, the operation of the actuator 12 and the operation of the pusher 13 are different in both operation mode and operation direction. The above-mentioned scheme of the linkage of the actuating member 12 and the pushing member 13 needs to be determined by combining the structures of the conductive component 2, the connecting frame, the device to be charged 8, and the like.
Referring to the example shown in fig. 16, the elastic member 11 includes: a platen 111, a platen spring 112, a base plate spring 113, and a base plate 114. It should be noted that the elastic member 11 in the present embodiment may not include the bottom plate 114, and the bottom plate 114 may be a bottom plate of the main body. The pressing plate 111 is used for contacting with the device to be charged and receiving pressure applied by the device to be charged. One end of the pressing plate spring 112 is connected to the pressing plate 111, and the other end is connected to the operating member 12. The base plate spring 113 has one end connected to the operating member 12 and the other end connected to the base plate 114.
The actuator 12 may be implemented by using a structure shown in fig. 16, and specifically, the actuator 12 includes: spring seat 121 and slide rod 122. The spring seat 121 is used to connect the pressure plate spring 112 and the bottom plate spring 113. A slide rod 122 is connected to the spring seat 121. The sliding rod 122 is in contact with the pushing member 13 through an inclined surface, and the movement of the sliding rod 122 along the first direction is converted into the movement of the pushing member 13 along the second direction through the inclined surface. Specifically, as shown in fig. 16, the first direction y is parallel to the deformation direction of the platen spring 112 and the bottom plate spring 113; the second direction y is perpendicular to the first direction x.
Alternatively, the spring seat 121 is configured as shown in fig. 17, the spring seat 121 has two end surfaces, a first end surface is provided with a spring core 1211 extending into the platen spring 112, a second end surface is provided with a spring seat groove 1212 adapted to the floor spring 113, and the floor spring 113 can be stably located in the spring seat groove 1212. The spring seat 121 and the sliding rod 122 may be an integral structure.
As shown in fig. 17, the actuator 12 is substantially Z-shaped, and one end thereof contacts the pressure plate spring 112 and the bottom plate spring 113, and the other end thereof contacts the pusher 13. As shown in fig. 16, the pushing member 13 has an inclined arm 131, the inclined arm 131 abuts against the sliding rod 122 of the operating member 12, and the pushing member 13 is limited in the vertical direction without a moving space. When the action piece 12 moves up and down, the separation in the second direction y is applied to the inclined arm 131, so that the pushing piece 13 translates left and right, and the conductive component 2 is driven to extend out, and is electrically connected with the charging end of the device to be charged.
The charging device using the trigger mechanism shown in fig. 14 to 16 can hide the conductive member 2 when not in use, and automatically extend to be electrically connected to the charging terminal of the external device to be charged when the external device to be charged needs to be charged. Referring to fig. 18a, 18b, 19 and 20, fig. 18b, 19 and 20 show the structure of the charging device in a clear view, and the device to be charged 8 is omitted. As shown in fig. 18a and 18b, in the initial insertion state in which the device to be charged 8 is inserted into the insertion slot of the connection frame 3, the pressing plate in the trigger mechanism 6 is not yet pressed, and the conductive member 2 is still in the hidden state. As shown in fig. 19, the device to be charged 8 is inserted into the insertion slot of the connecting frame 3, the pressing plate in the trigger mechanism 6 is pressed, the pressing plate spring is deformed, the actuating member is driven to move downwards, the downward movement of the actuating member drives the pushing member to push the conductive assembly 2 to the right, so that the conductive assembly 2 moves to the right to extend. The device to be charged 8 is continuously inserted into the insertion groove of the connecting frame 3, the pressing plate of the trigger mechanism 6 is continuously pressed, so that the pushing piece is continuously driven by the action piece to push the conductive component 2 rightwards, and the conductive component 2 is pushed out and is electrically connected with the charging end of the device to be charged 8.
The above-described process describes how the conductive member 2 in the charging apparatus is automatically extended to be electrically connected to the charging terminal of the device to be charged 8. In addition, the charging device embodiments shown in fig. 14-20 can be compatible with different devices to be charged. The device to be charged 8 shown in fig. 20 is assumed to be a first model device. It is assumed that there is again a second model of device to be charged whose charging terminal has a height in the y direction in fig. 16 that is higher than the position of the charging terminal of the first model of device to be charged 8 shown in fig. 20. That is, on the basis shown in fig. 20, the device to be charged of the second model needs to be inserted into the connecting frame 3 continuously downwards, the pressing plate needs to be stressed continuously, and the pressing plate spring needs to be compressed continuously, at this stage, the downward displacement of the charging end of the device to be charged of the second model is matched and compensated by the compression amount of the pressing plate spring and the bottom plate spring, until the conductive component 2 is electrically connected with the charging end of the device to be charged of the second model.
Fig. 21 to 23 show the device to be charged 8 removed, and show the action relationship among the pressing plate 111 of the trigger mechanism 6, the pressing plate spring 112, the bottom plate spring 113, the action member 12, the pushing member 13 and the conductive member 2.
With continued reference to fig. 21 to 23, the charging device of the present embodiment further includes a frame 14. The frame 14 is located on one side of the elastic member 11 and the actuator 12. The pushing member 13 and the conductive member 2 are disposed in the frame 14. One end of the sliding rod 122 extends into the frame 14 and is connected with the pushing member 13. A through hole is arranged at a position of the frame 14 corresponding to the conductive assembly 5, and the conductive assembly 2 extends out of the through hole under the pushing of the pushing member 13 to be electrically connected with a charging end of the device to be charged.
Specifically, the frame 14 may include a middle frame 141 and a middle frame cover 142, and the middle frame 141 and the middle frame cover 142 may be fastened, screwed or otherwise connected to form the frame 14 having a hollow inner cavity.
As shown in fig. 16, the frame 14 has an upper portion, a middle portion and a lower portion in the first direction y (i.e., in the platen spring and the base spring deformation direction). The conductive component 2 is located at the upper part; the power supply element 7 is arranged in the frame 14 and is positioned at the lower part; the pushing member 13 is located in the frame, and one end of the pushing member is connected to the action member (more specifically, one end of the pushing member 13 is connected to the sliding rod 122 at the middle of the frame 14) at the middle of the frame 14, and the other end of the pushing member 13 is connected to the conductive assembly 2 at the upper part of the frame 14, so as to provide pushing force to the conductive assembly 2. More specifically, the middle of the frame 14 has a guide column 143, the axis of the guide column 143 is parallel to the x direction in fig. 21, and the guide column 143 guides the pushing member 13 to move in a direction parallel to the x direction, that is, to move left and right in fig. 21. Correspondingly, the pushing member 13 is provided with a through hole matched with the guiding column 143. In the embodiment where the frame 14 includes the middle frame 141 and the middle frame cover 142, the guiding posts 143 may be disposed on the middle frame cover 142. In addition to the above-mentioned limitation of the linear movement of the pushing member 13 by using the guiding column, the linear movement of the pushing member 13 may also be limited by a rib position limiting manner (similar to the limiting rib 65 provided on the follower bracket 63 in fig. 6), or a sliding groove, or a sliding rail, and the like, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
In practical implementation, a semi-wrapping structure 144 adapted to the outer contour of the device to be charged is disposed outside the upper portion of the frame 14. For example, the outer contour of the device to be charged is a cylindrical surface contour, and correspondingly, the semi-wrapping structure 144 of the frame 14 may be a semi-circular wrapping structure adapted to the cylindrical surface contour.
The middle frame 141 of the frame 14 and the connecting frame 3 may be an integral structure, and the integral structure of the middle frame and the connecting frame may be connected to the main body 4 by a fastening structure or a screw hole. Similarly, the middle frame cover 142 may also be fixedly connected to the middle frame 141 by a fastening structure or a screw hole. The conductive element 2 is in contact with the local feature of the middle frame 142 through a rib position limiting or other limiting feature, so that the conductive element 2 moves along a limiting direction (i.e. a direction parallel to the x direction in fig. 21), and the conductive spring of the conductive element 2 is in a compressed state. Under the action of the conductive spring, the conductive terminals in the conductive assembly 2 are always in pressure contact with the charging terminal of the device to be charged when the conductive terminals are in electrical contact with the charging terminal.
In addition, the base plate 114 of the elastic member 11 of the triggering mechanism 6 mentioned above can be fixed on the main body 4 by means of a snap structure or a screw hole, and more specifically, as shown in fig. 21, the base plate 114 can be fixed in the connecting frame 3 on the main body 4.
As can be seen from the above, the embodiment shown in fig. 14 to 23 does not have the rotating trigger bracket 62 and the rotating follower bracket 63, and the charging device includes the frame 14 formed by the fixedly arranged middle frame 141 and the middle frame cover 142. The frame 14 internally houses a power supply unit 7 (e.g., a DC head) that functions the same as the previous embodiment. The pressing plate 111 corresponds to the trigger bracket 62 of the previous embodiment, and is used for contacting with the device to be charged to wait for the device to be charged to trigger. The pressing plate 111 has a longitudinal pressing plate spring 112 at a lower portion thereof, and one end thereof abuts against the pressing plate 111 and the other end thereof abuts against the operating member 12. There is also a floor spring 113 below the actuator 12, so that the actuator 12 has one spring above and below it. The actuator 12 is substantially in the shape of a Z, one end of which contacts the upper and lower springs and the other end of which contacts the pusher 13. The pushing piece 13 has an inclined arm which is pushed against the action piece 12, and the pushing piece 13 is limited in the up-down direction without moving space. When the pressing plate 111 drives the action part 12 to move up and down, a horizontal component force is applied to the oblique arm, so that the pushing part 13 moves horizontally left and right, and the conductive component 2 at one end of the pushing part 13 is driven to extend out, so as to be electrically connected with a charging end of the equipment to be charged.
In an implementation, as shown in fig. 1, the connection frame 3 includes an insertion slot; the device to be charged is inserted into the connection frame 3 through the insertion slot. One part of the structure of the trigger mechanism 6 is positioned in the insertion groove, and the other part of the structure is positioned outside the insertion groove.
Further, as shown in fig. 1, in order to adapt to the structure of the connection terminal of the device to be charged, the insertion slot may have at least two slot spaces for inserting different structures of the device to be charged, respectively. Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the insertion groove has two groove spaces, a first groove space 31 and a second groove space 32, respectively. Referring to fig. 2, the trigger mechanism 6 of the charging device is a structure including a rotating trigger bracket 62 and a rotating follower bracket 63, the trigger bracket 62 can be located in the second slot space 32, and the end of the trigger bracket 62 extends into the first slot space 31. As can be seen from fig. 2, 3 and 4, the trigger bracket 62 of the trigger mechanism 6 is triggered by the first structure of the device to be charged 8 inserted into the first slot space 31, that is, the end of the trigger bracket 62 is pressed downward by the first structure of the device to be charged 8 inserted into the first slot space 31, so as to drive the trigger bracket 62 to rotate.
Referring to fig. 14, the triggering mechanism 6 of the charging device includes: when the elastic member 11 (pressing plate, pressing plate spring, bottom plate), the operating member 12 and the pushing member 13 are configured, the elastic member 11 and the operating member may be disposed in the second groove space 32, and a portion of the operating member 12 extends out of the second groove space 32 in a direction away from the first groove space 31. Referring to fig. 18b, 19 and 20, the elastic component of the triggering mechanism 6 is triggered by the second structure of the device to be charged 8 inserted into the second slot space 32, that is, the second structure of the device to be charged 8 inserted into the second slot space 32 presses the pressing plate of the elastic component 11 downwards to drive the action member 12 and the pushing member to act.
Further, the charging device provided by the embodiment has a storage function in addition to the charging function. Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the main body 4 is further provided with at least one storage location 1 for storing at least one first component detachably connected to the device to be charged. The receiving position 1 can be a protruding receiving plug column or a recessed receiving groove. When the containing position 1 is a containing groove, a containing sheet can be arranged at the notch of the containing groove and movably connected with the notch.
Further, as shown in fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the main body 4 further includes a movable frame 5, and the movable frame 5 is rotatably disposed on the main body 4. As shown in fig. 24, a receiving structure 51 is disposed on an end surface of one side of the movable frame 5, and is used for receiving a second component detachably connected to the device to be charged. Specifically, as shown in fig. 24, the receiving structure 51 is a receiving slot, and the received second member can be inserted from an insertion opening of the receiving slot.
In the example shown in fig. 25 and 26, the device to be charged is a vacuum cleaner having a plurality of removable suction heads 81 and an extension pole 82. The main body 83 of the vacuum cleaner is insertable into a connecting frame of the charging device, the plurality of suction heads 81 are respectively insertable into the receiving grooves for receiving, and the extension rod 82 is insertable into the receiving slot of the movable frame 5 for receiving. Fig. 25 shows an example having a plurality of storage positions, and fig. 26 shows an example having a small number of storage positions.
The movable frame 5 has a folding function, and can reduce the overall size and the overall height of the charging device. As shown in fig. 1, fig. 24, 25 and 26 are views showing a state in which the movable frame 5 of the charging apparatus is folded for housing the accessories, in a state in which the charging apparatus is unfolded.
As an embodiment shown in fig. 24, the receiving position 1 on the main body 4 is a receiving groove, and a receiving piece 1001 can be disposed at the notch of the receiving groove. When not stored, the storage piece 1001 may be covered on the storage groove, as shown in fig. 1, and when preparing to store, the storage piece 1001 may be rotated (rotated 90 degrees as shown in fig. 24), and then the accessory may be inserted into the storage groove to store. Of course, the storage slot can be provided with a storage piece, so that the extra operation of the user during storage can be reduced.
As shown in fig. 1, the connection frame 3 on the main body 4 may have a ring-shaped support wall protruding from the main body 4, and the inside is hollow (i.e., a slot), and a main body of the device to be charged may be vertically inserted along the support wall. Of course, the connecting frame 3 may not be a structure protruding from the main body, but may be an insertion groove hidden in the main body 4, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
Furthermore, in order to prevent the charging device from slipping on the surface (such as the ground) contacted with the charging device, soft rubber (made of materials such as EVA) can be added at the bottom of the charging device to increase the friction with the ground.
In summary, the embodiments provided by the present application have the following beneficial effects:
1. the charging device is portable and foldable, and if the movable frame can rotate relative to the main body, the whole size and the whole height of the charging device are reduced, and the space is saved, so that the charging device is convenient to transport and store.
2. The conductive component of the charging device can automatically pop up to be electrically connected with the equipment to be charged. Only when charging, the conducting component can stretch out in a certain mode, so that the safety is improved, and the damage probability of the conducting component can be reduced.
3. The charging device can be interchangeably matched with different types and accessories for charging and containing. The development investment can be reduced in the product development process, the development of the types of charging devices is reduced in the production process, and the types of parts for production management are reduced.

In an implementation solution, as shown in fig. 3 to 13, the triggering mechanism 6 can be implemented as follows. Specifically, the trigger mechanism comprises a rotating frame. The rotating frame is provided with a rotating shaft 61, a triggering bracket 62 rotating around the rotating shaft 61, and a following bracket 63 rotating around the rotating shaft 61. The trigger bracket 62 is used to be triggered by the cleaning device main unit (similar to the device to be charged 8 shown in the partial figures of fig. 3 to 13). The follow-up bracket 63 is provided with the conductive component 2, and is used for generating rotation around the rotating shaft 61 when the triggering bracket 62 is triggered to rotate around the rotating shaft 61 so as to drive the conductive component 2 to gradually approach a charging end of the cleaning equipment main body until the conductive component is electrically connected with the charging end.
Further, the conductive member 2 is slidably connected to the follower bracket 63 to change a distance from the rotating shaft 61 during the rotation of the conductive member 2 around the rotating shaft 61.

The following describes a scheme provided in an embodiment of the present application with reference to a specific application scenario.
Scene 1
A user purchases a cleaning system with a vacuum cleaner and a charging device (also referred to as a charging storage device) as shown in fig. 25. The user places charging device in the corner at home, inserts the cleaning device who does not use (like mite suction head, slit suction head etc.) into charging device's storage position department. The host computer of dust catcher can insert on the link in the charging device main part, and this link plays when accomodating the dust catcher host computer, still can charge for the dust catcher host computer. The user can turn up the movable frame on the charging device main body to form an angle of 90 degrees with the main body; then the extension rod of the dust collector is contained in the containing slot of the movable frame. When a user wants to use the dust collector, the main machine of the dust collector can be pulled out of the connecting frame of the main body, the extension rod is taken down from the movable frame, then the main machine of the dust collector is connected with one end of the extension rod, and the other end of the extension rod can be connected with a cleaning device (such as a floor brush, which can be called a rolling brush) commonly used by the user; the user can then use the cleaner to clean the floor at home.
Scene 2
When the dust collector is used up or the electric quantity displays low electric quantity, the user stores the dust collector into the charging device. The main body of the dust collector can be detached by a user and inserted into the connecting frame of the main body. As shown in fig. 2 to 13, when the user inserts the main body of the vacuum cleaner into the connection frame, the main body presses the trigger bracket of the rotation frame of the charging device to rotate, and the follower bracket rotates along with the trigger bracket to drive the conductive assembly to rotate and gradually approach the charging end of the main body until the conductive assembly is electrically connected with the charging end. After the host is inserted into the bottom of the connection frame, for example, after the user hears a "click", it indicates that the host is firmly connected to the connection frame, and the conductive element is also electrically connected to the charging terminal of the host under pressure.
After the user uses the dust collector for one or two years, the user finds that a new dust collector is sold. When a new dust collector is purchased, the charging device matched with the new dust collector is not needed to be purchased. Suppose that the appearance size of the new dust collector changes, but the position of the charging end on the main machine of the dust collector does not change. After a user buys a new dust collector, the new dust collector is inserted into the connecting frame of the charging device, the shell of the new dust collector interferes with the conductive component in the process that the conductive component rotates to gradually approach the main machine of the dust collector, and the conductive component moves relative to the follow-up support under the pressure to avoid the shell of the new dust collector; after crossing the interference position, the conductive component returns to the initial position under the action of the elastic restoring force and is electrically connected with the charging end of the new dust collector host.
Scene 3
When the dust collector is used up or the electric quantity displays low electric quantity, the user stores the dust collector into the charging device. The user can detach the main body of the dust collector and insert the main body into the connecting frame of the main body. With the structure shown in fig. 14 to 23, when the user inserts the main body of the vacuum cleaner into the connection frame, the main body presses the elastic component of the charging device, and the elastic component deforms to drive the action member to move downwards. The action piece is in contact connection with the pushing piece through an inclined plane, the downward movement of the action piece is converted into the horizontal right movement of the pushing piece through the inclined plane, and the conductive assembly gradually extends out under the pushing of the pushing piece to be close to the dust collector host. After the host is inserted into the bottom of the connection frame, for example, after the user hears a "click", it indicates that the host is firmly connected to the connection frame, and the conductive element is also in contact with the charging terminal of the host and remains in a pressed state.
After the user uses the dust collector for one or two years, the user finds that a new dust collector is sold. When a new dust collector is purchased, the charging device matched with the new dust collector is not needed to be purchased. The length of the structure of the new dust collector for connecting with the connecting frame is larger than that of the previous dust collector, or the height of the charging end is higher than that of the previous dust collector. After a user buys a new dust collector, the new dust collector is inserted into the connecting frame of the charging device, and the conductive component is in a process of rotating to gradually approach the main machine of the dust collector, and after the new dust collector is inserted into the connecting frame for a certain depth, the conductive component is already in contact with the main machine of the dust collector but is not yet in contact with the charging end; the user needs to continue inserting downwards, the section of the user which continues inserting is compensated by the elastic deformation of the elastic component, until the host is inserted into the bottom of the connecting frame, for example, after the user hears a click, the host is firmly connected to the connecting frame, and at the moment, the conductive component is electrically connected with the charging end of the host of the dust collector.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and not to limit the same; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it should be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some technical features may be equivalently replaced; and such modifications or substitutions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the corresponding technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application.
