Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electric vehicle equipped with an adapter for recharging an electric battery.
- a vehicle according to the invention has an electrical outlet for an electric battery of said vehicle, which is configured to allow the tip of the power supply gun to always be placed in a satisfactory position facing said outlet, to ensure that the battery is recharged systematically.
- the invention relates to a vehicle comprising an electric battery and an electrical outlet intended to supply said battery with electricity, said outlet being placed in a bodywork element delimiting said vehicle so as to be accessible from the outside. of said vehicle.
- the socket comprises guide means intended to route a tip of an electrical power gun in the correct position opposite said socket, so that said tip can systematically enter a zone of reception of said socket in order to ensure electrical recharging of the battery.
- the reception zone comprises several parallel channels intended to be occupied by tubular and rectilinear rods of the tip of the supply gun, to ensure the recharging of the battery.
- These guide means are placed around the reception zone, and are preferably constituted by hollows and/or bumps placed on said socket.
- these guide means consist of projecting elements such as for example flat walls, the orientation of which allows them to route the tip of the feed gun towards the zone for receiving the socket.
- the term “systematically” should be interpreted as “every time”.
- the tip is an electrical connector, and the penetration of the tip into the reception zone makes it possible to ensure electrical contact between said tip and said reception zone.
- the guide means consist of a wall forming a funnel, said wall delimiting a flared end opening and a reduced end opening placed around the zone for receiving the taken, said flared end opening being placed further outboard of the vehicle than is the reduced end opening.
- the section of the wall delimiting the reduced end opening surrounds the reception area without leaving space with said reception area.
- the tip will always be ideally placed in front of the reception area before being pushed into it, without the risk of being slightly off-center in relation to it.
- the section of the wall delimiting the reduced end opening is in contact with a secondary wall delimiting the reception zone. Thanks to this interaction between the section of the wall forming a funnel and the secondary wall of the socket surrounding the reception area, the mouthpiece will be, systematically and repeatedly, always well placed in front of the reception area.
- the wall forming the funnel has inclined faces connecting the flared end opening and the reduced end opening, said inclined faces leading to two receiving walls placed at the same level as the reduced end opening and covering two magnetized zones of the socket and placed on either side of the reception zone, said inclined faces being intended to guide the movement of two end magnets of the tip of the feed gun to route them to the two receiving walls.
- both receiving walls each form a housing intended to receive a magnet from the end piece.
- the two magnets are each placed at one end of a movable rod of the end piece and therefore have movable positions relative to the end piece.
- the two receiving walls are placed in the same plane, corresponding to a plane in which the reduced end opening is inscribed.
- the two receiving walls each have a circular outline to accommodate a cylindrical magnet of the tip of the feed gun.
- the wall forming a funnel comprises two flat stops placed at the level of the flared end opening and aligned along a vertical axis, said two stops being intended to block the stroke of two movable rods of the tip of the feed gun and around which springs are threaded.
- the wall forming a funnel is an attached adapter capable of being fixed on the electrical socket of the vehicle, without modifying the structure of said vehicle.
- an adapter adapted to the vehicle in question in order to then fix it to the electrical outlet of the vehicle without having to modify the structure of the vehicle at the level of the outlet.
- Another object of the invention is a method for recharging a battery of a vehicle according to the invention, by means of a supply gun comprising a tip surrounded by two first movable rods around which are wound two springs and by two second movable rods each ending in a magnet.
- the method comprises the following steps:
- a vehicle according to the invention has the advantage of having an electric battery that can be recharged satisfactorily and repeatedly at each recharging operation. It also has the advantage of having an electric battery that can be recharged with an electricity supply gun controlled by a robot, because even if the gun is not ideally placed in front of the electrical outlet, the adapter allows said gun to be systematically inserted in the reception area of the vehicle's electrical socket.

- FIG. 9 shows a top view of the part of figures 6, 7 and 8.
- a vehicle 1 is an electric or hybrid vehicle comprising an electric battery and can for example be a utility vehicle.
- the vehicle illustrated in Figure 1 has a cockpit 2 at the rear of which extends a loading platform 3, intended to store goods or various objects.
- the cockpit 2 comprises a driver's seat and at least one passenger seat placed next to said driver's seat.
- a first side door 4 provides access to the driver's seat and a second side door (not visible in the figures) provides access to said at least one passenger seat.
- this vehicle 1 has an electric current socket 10 connected to the electric battery of said vehicle 1, in which is intended to be plugged a tip 11 of a gun 12 power supply to ensure electrical recharging of the battery.
- This electrical outlet 10 is placed in a bodywork element 13 of the vehicle, which is located at the rear of the first side door 4. This electrical outlet 10 is flush with an outer surface of this bodywork element 13, so as to be accessible from the exterior of said vehicle 1.
- the power supply gun 12 is electrically connected to a reserve 14 of electric current which is external to the vehicle 1.
- the supply gun 12 with its tip 11 is routed in front of the electrical outlet 10 of the vehicle.
- the tip 11 plays the role of an electrical connector intended to be plugged into the electrical socket 10 of the vehicle 1 to establish electrical contact and ensure the charging of the battery.
- the feed gun 12 schematically comprises a main body 16, preferably cylindrical in shape, and extended by the tip 11 which is itself advantageously cylindrical in shape and whose diameter is substantially equal to that of the main body 16.
- Two first movable rods 17, 18 extend on either side of the main body 16, being parallel to a longitudinal axis of said main body 16. These two first rods 17, 18 are therefore arranged around said body 16 being diametrically opposed.
