The first dust ring 20 and the connecting piece 10 may be integrally formed or may be separately formed. For ease of manufacture, the first dust ring 20 of the embodiment of the utility model is integrally formed with the connecting piece 10. The first dust ring 20 protrudes from an end surface of one side of the connection piece 10 in a thickness direction of the connection piece 10, and forms a ring structure. In the use process, at least one peripheral surface of the first dust ring 20 is in sealing connection with the first charging port 200, and a specific connection mode may be clamping connection, interference connection, and the like. The surface of the first dust ring 20 contacting the first charging port 200 is a first supporting surface 21, the first supporting surface 21 may be parallel to the end surface of one side of the connecting sheet 10 in the thickness direction, and the first supporting surface 21 may be arranged to prevent the over-pressure assembly from being out of place.

The second dust ring 30 and the connecting piece 10 may be integrally formed or may be separately formed. For ease of manufacture, the second dust ring 30 of the embodiment of the present utility model is integrally formed with the connection piece 10. The second dust ring 30 protrudes from an end surface of one side of the connection piece 10 in a thickness direction of the connection piece 10, and forms a ring structure. In the use process, at least one peripheral surface of the second dust ring 30 is in sealing connection with the first charging port 200, and a specific connection mode may be clamping connection, interference connection, and the like. In addition, the second dust ring 30 is disposed at an edge position of the connection piece 10 as compared to the first dust ring 20.

The centers of the first dust ring 20 and the second dust ring 30 may be the same point, and the first dust ring 20 and the second dust ring 30 may have different heights in a thickness direction perpendicular to the connection piece 10 to fit different charging ports.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, in some embodiments, a gap t is provided between the first dust ring 20 and the second dust ring 30.

In this way, the deformation space of the first dust ring 20 and the second dust ring 30 is large and the sealing effect is better than the case of no gap t.

Specifically, there is a gap t between the first dust ring 20 and the second dust ring 30 in a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the connection piece 10, and the size of the gap t may be designed according to the dimensional difference between the first charging port 200 and the second charging port 300. For example, the size required for the first dust ring 20 to cover the first charging port 200 is 15cm, the size required for the second dust ring 30 to cover the second charging port 300 is 20cm, and the size of the gap t may be 5cm. It should be noted that the numerical values herein are merely exemplary illustrations for easy understanding, and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of the present utility model.

Referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments, the height h1 of the first dust ring 20 is greater than the height h2 of the second dust ring 30 in a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the connection piece 10.

As such, the first and second charging ports 200 and 300 may be covered by the first and second dust rings 20 and 30, respectively, and the first dust ring 20 may not interfere with the second charging port 300 and the second dust ring 30 may not interfere with the first charging port 200 during the assembly of the dust cap 100.

Specifically, the dust cap 100 is cut in a direction parallel to the thickness direction of the connection piece 10, and the height h1 of the first dust ring 20 is greater than the height h2 of the second dust ring 30 in the resultant sectional view.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, in some embodiments, the dust cap 100 includes a support block 40, where the support block 40 connects the first dust ring 20 and the connection piece 10, and the support block 40 protrudes from an end surface of the first dust ring 20 away from the connection piece 10.

In this way, the support block 40 increases the stress area in the thickness direction of the dust cap 100, and increases the engagement force between the dust cap 100 and the first charging port 200.

Specifically, the support block 40 and the first dust ring 20 may be integrally formed with the connection piece 10, or may be separately formed. The first dust ring 20 may be coupled to a side of the support block 40 in a height direction of the support block 40. The support block 40 may have a regular shape, such as a triangle, a circle, or an irregular shape, in a cross section taken in a direction parallel to the end face of the connection piece 10. Alternatively, the supporting block 40 is triangular, and the peripheral surface of the supporting block 40 is in strong interference when connected with the first charging port 200, so that the supporting block 40 has a higher clamping force when connected with the first charging port 200, thereby ensuring the sealing effect of the supporting block 40.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, in some embodiments, the support blocks 40 are located within a space defined by the outer circumferential surface 22 of the first dust ring 20.

In this way, the supporting block 40 can avoid the internal structure of the second charging port 300 when being matched with the second charging port 300, the supporting block 40 cannot interfere with the second charging port 300, and the supporting block 40 is prevented from affecting the connection function of the second charging port 300.

Specifically, the supporting block 40 may enhance the sealing effect of the first charging port 200, but in order to avoid interference between the supporting block 40 and the second charging port 300, the supporting block 40 is located in a space defined by the outer peripheral surface 22 of the first dust ring 20, or in other words, in the thickness direction of the connecting piece 10, the orthographic projection of the supporting block 40 is located inside the orthographic projection of the first dust ring 20.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, in some embodiments, the number of the support blocks 40 is plural, and the plurality of support blocks 40 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the first dust ring 20.

In this way, compared to the single support block 40, the plurality of support blocks 40 can further increase the stress area of the dust cap 100 in the thickness direction, thereby improving the engagement force of the dust cap 100 with the first charging port 200.

In particular, the number of support blocks 40 may be three, four, five or even more. Alternatively, the number of the supporting blocks 40 is four, and the four supporting blocks 40 may be symmetrically arranged along the circumferential direction of the first dust ring 20 at intervals, so that when the first dust ring 20 covers the first charging port 200, the force-bearing contact area between the first dust ring 20 and the first charging port 200 is increased, so that the clamping force between the first dust ring 20 and the first charging port 200 is improved, and the clamping force between the dust cap 100 and the first charging port 200 is further improved.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4 and 5, the outer circumferential surface 22 of the first dust ring 20 is provided with a first protrusion 23, and the first protrusion 23 extends along the circumferential direction of the first dust ring 20.

Thus, compared to the first dust ring 20, the first protrusion 23 has a smaller size, so that the deformation amount when the first protrusion 23 is matched with the first charging port 200 is larger, and the first protrusion 23 can be better matched with the first charging port 200, so that the first dust ring 20 can better seal the first charging port 200.

Specifically, the first protrusion 23 and the first dust ring 20 may be integrally formed or may be separately formed. The first protrusion 23 may be a ring-shaped structure, and the cross-sectional shape of the first protrusion 23 may be any shape along the thickness direction of the first protrusion 23. The first protrusions 23 may be formed of a deformable material such as nitrile, silicone rubber, or the like.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, in some embodiments, the outer circumferential surface 32 of the second dust ring 30 is provided with a second protrusion 33, and the second protrusion 33 extends in the circumferential direction of the second dust ring 30.

Thus, compared to the second dust ring 30, the second protrusion 33 has a smaller size, so that the deformation amount when the second protrusion 33 is matched with the second charging port 300 is larger, and the second protrusion 33 can be better matched with the second charging port 300, so that the second dust ring 30 can better seal the second charging port 300.

Specifically, the second protrusion 33 and the second dust ring 30 may be integrally formed or may be separately formed. The second protrusion 33 may have an annular structure, and the cross-sectional shape of the second protrusion 33 may be any shape along the thickness direction of the second protrusion 33. The second protrusions 33 may be formed of a deformable material such as nitrile, silicone rubber, or the like.

Referring to fig. 1-2, in some embodiments, a handle 11 is provided on a side of the connecting piece 10 facing away from the first dust ring 20.

Thus, the dust cap 100 is easy to detach due to the arrangement of the handle 11, and a user can easily detach the dust cap 100 in a manual mode, so that the use convenience of the dust cap 100 is improved.

Specifically, the handle 11 may be provided at an end face of one side of the connection piece 10 in the thickness direction of the connection piece 10. The handle 11 and the connecting piece 10 may be integrally formed or may be separately formed. The handle 11 may be of a regular shape, such as a sphere, a cylinder, or an irregular shape.

The second charging port 300 is disposed in close proximity to the first charging port 200; the dust cap 100 covers the first charging port 200 or the second charging port 300.

Specifically, the vehicle 1000 may be a mini-vehicle, a small-sized vehicle, a medium-sized vehicle, or the like. The first charging port 200 and the second charging port 300 of the vehicle 1000 are connector interfaces having different specifications, for example, the first charging port 200 may be a direct current charging port and the second charging port 300 may be an alternating current charging port. In the actual use process, one of the charging ports is usually used as a common charging port. For example, the second charging port 300 is used as a common charging port, so that the first charging port 200 is idle, and the second charging port 300 is only suitable for some special scenes, or scenes where the common charging port cannot be used. When the charging device is used, the dustproof cap 100 can be connected with the second charging port 300, the second charging port 300 is covered by the second dustproof ring 30, the first charging port 200 is matched with the charging gun to form a seal, and thus the seal of the first charging port 200 and the second charging port 300 during charging is realized, and foreign matter invasion is avoided.
