Definitions
- the invention relates to a contact unit for a charging system for elec trically driven vehicles, in particular passenger cars, trucks, buses or the like, and a charging system, the charging system comprising a charging contact device and a contact device with a contact unit carrier, the contact unit carrier having the contact unit, being with the contact unit
- Charging contact of the charging contact device can be contacted to form a contact pairing, the contact unit having a contact element made of metal, the contact unit having a connecting line for connection to the vehicle or the charging station, the contact element having a contact bump, the contact bump having a contact surface for contacting of the charging contact.
- Such contact units and charging systems are already known from the prior art and are regularly used for charging electrically powered vehicles at, for example, a stopping point.
- a charging system is known from WO 2015/018889 A l, in which a roof-shaped charging contact device is contacted by a contact unit carrier of a contact device of the same configuration.
- the contact unit carrier is guided into a contact position, contact elements in the contact unit carrier sliding along roof-shaped slopes of the charging contact device and the contact unit carrier being centered in the charging contact device.
- the contact device and the charging contact device are brought together by means of a positioning device, which is arranged here in the manner of a rocker on the roof of the vehicle.
- Batteries of the vehicle can then be charged while the vehicle is stopped at a stationary charging station.
- Contact pairs are formed for a charging circuit and for example for a control line, grounding or data transmission. It is therefore always provided to contact a plurality of contact elements, each with associated charging contacts.
- the charging system is arranged below a vehicle for practical and aesthetic reasons. Nevertheless, it is also possible to make such an arrangement for trucks or buses.
- the charging systems which are designed for the transmission of high currents, for example 500 A to 1000 A with a voltage of 750 V, it is always necessary to provide correspondingly large-sized contact units or contact elements and corresponding conductor cross sections.
- a basic problem in the formation of a contact pairing is contamination of the contact elements or charging contacts and oxidation or corrosion of a surface of the contact elements or charging contacts.
- the contact elements or charging contacts regularly consist of copper or a copper alloy in order to be as high as possible To be able to transmit currents, with the formation of an oxidation layer comparatively quickly. If the contact elements grind along surfaces of a charging contact device during insertion into a contact position, dirt and an oxidation layer can optionally be removed from the contact elements or charging contacts.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object of proposing a contact unit and a charging system which ensures reliable contact quality.
- the charging system comprises a charging contact device and a contact device with a contact unit carrier, the contact unit carrier having the contact unit, with the contact unit being a charging contact for the charging contact device
- the contact unit has a contact element made of metal, the contact unit having a connecting line for connection to the vehicle or the charging station, the contact element having a contact bump, the contact bump forming a contact surface for contacting the charging contact, the contact element in the region the contact surface is formed at least in sections from a contact piece made of carbon.
- the contact element is formed with a contact bump, which in turn forms the contact surface for contacting a charging contact.
- the contact bump can have any shape and be formed in such a way that the contact element has a chamfer or rounding on its outer edges.
- the point or the area of the contact bump that is closest to or faces the charging contact is part of the contact area.
- This contact surface is formed at least in sections from a contact piece made of carbon. Since the contact element is made of metal, the contact piece is then arranged or fastened accordingly on the contact element. The contact piece can then completely form the contact surface Kon. Because the contact surface is formed at least in sections from the contact piece, the contact surface cannot oxidize in these areas due to the carbon that forms the contact surface.
- the contact unit can also be produced inexpensively, since carbon contact pieces are easy to manufacture and mountable on the contact element.
- the contact element can be bolt-shaped and / or the contact surface can be at least partially curved, preferably dome-shaped.
- the then stud-shaped contact bump can form the contact surface for contacting the charging contact, wherein a distal end of the contact element can be rounded, arched or dome-shaped. In this way it can be ensured that the contact element, even in the case of a different position relative to the charging contact, is always in contact with the charging contact with a selective contact.
- the contact element can then also be moved along a charging contact without causing major mechanical damage to the charging contact or the contact element.
- the contact element can also be designed with another suitable shape.
- the bolt-shaped contact element is arranged to be movable or pivotable on a contact unit carrier in the direction of its longitudinal axis, a large-area contact with a charging contact can possibly also be formed on a contact end of the contact element due to complete rounding or rounded edges.
- the contact piece can be designed to be flush with the contact surface.
- the contact piece can be formed after assembly by a contact element by mechanical processing such as milling, turning or grinding the contact element flush with the contact surface.
- the contact surface then has no shoulders or protrusions.
- the contact element can consist of copper or a copper alloy and can be flat or uncoated.
- the contact surface then consists at least in sections of carbon and copper or is formed from these materials.
- the metal of the contact element can be coated with silver, but this is comparatively expensive and sensitive to mechanical influences.
- the contact piece can consist of graphite or hard carbon. Industrially produced graphite or hard coal is available inexpensively, although admixtures of metals such as copper or silver can also be contained in the graphite or hard coal. Graphite or hard coal are corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant and robust.
- the contact piece can be arranged coaxially relative to a longitudinal axis of the contact element, wherein the contact piece can form a point of the contact surface that is closest to a charging contact.
- the contact piece can accordingly be positioned centrally in the contact area with respect to an outer contour of the contact area, in particular if the contact area is also formed by the contact element.
- the contact piece can then, for example, also form the highest point of the contact surface, so that when the contact element and the charging contact are brought together, the contact piece comes into direct contact with the charging contact. Safe contacting can thus advantageously be formed.
- a first partial area of the contact area can be formed by the contact piece and a second partial area of the contact area can be formed by the contact bump, wherein the first partial area can be circular, rectangular, square, star-shaped or cruciform.
- the first partial surface can also be arranged accordingly transversely to a longitudinal axis of the contact piece.
- the second partial area can surround the first partial area or can also be interrupted by it.
- the first partial surface can, for example, if it is rectangular, be designed in the manner of a strip that extends through the first partial surface.
- the contact piece can be inserted into a recess formed in the contact bump.
- the recess can be, for example, a bore or a groove running transversely to the longitudinal axis of the contact element.
- the contact piece then essentially completely fills the recess.
- a simple positive connection can be made using a pin connection.
- the contact piece can be fastened in the recess by means of an electrically conductive adhesive material or a solder.
- the contact piece can then be soldered or glued in the recess. In any case, an electrically highly conductive connection is always formed between the contact piece and the metal of the contact element.
- the contact piece can alternatively be formed in the recess by means of sintering.
- the contact piece can be formed directly in the recess and thus firmly anchored therein.
- the formation of the contact piece by sintering can take place in a piece of raw material of the contact element, with mechanical processing of this semifinished product being carried out subsequently.
- a spring of the contact unit can cause a spring force on the contact element, such that the contact element can be pressed in the direction of a charging contact.
- a resilient mounting of the contact element can be carried out by a compression spring, in particular a spiral spring, on the contact element or in the region of a pivot bearing or a guide of the contact unit. As a result, a punctual contact with a charging contact and a spring preload can be formed.
- a spring force can be selected such that the contact element is always pressed in the direction of the charging contact and moved into a front end position when the contact element is not in contact with a charging contact.
- the spring can also be a tortuous torsion spring which can be held on an axis of a rotary bearing of the contact element. For example, the contact element on a rotary bearing can be pivoted into an end position by means of a spring force.
- the contact device can have at least two further contact units, the respective contact surface for contacting the Charging contact can be made entirely of metal.
- the metal of the contact surface of the further contact elements of the further contact units can be copper or a copper alloy, for example.
- the other contact elements can also be provided with a coating, for example made of silver.
- the two further contact elements can then form charging contacts of a charging circuit, via which comparatively high voltages and currents are transmitted.
- the use of a contact piece made of carbon is then not required for the further contact elements.
- the contact unit can be designed such that a signal can be transmitted via the contact element, with a current of 100 A to 1000 A, preferably 500 A to 1000 A, particularly preferably 800 A at a voltage of in each case via the further contact units 60 V to 1500 V, preferably 750 V, can be transmitted. Consequently, an output of 375 kW to 750 kW, preferably 600 kW, can be transmitted via the further contact units.
- a vehicle can also be charged more quickly since higher currents can be transmitted in a shorter time. If necessary, a number of contact units can also be reduced on the contact unit carrier, as a result of which a contact device can be manufactured more cost-effectively.
- the connecting line can be attached directly or indirectly to the contact element.
- Streams can be used.
- the connecting line can then be moved together with the contact element.
- sliding greases or other components to favor the transmission of electricity in the
- the connecting line can have a conductor cross section of at least 50 mm 2 , preferably 95 mm 2 . This makes it possible to transmit particularly high currents with the contact unit.
- At least two contact elements can protrude relative to one of the Ladkon tact device facing surface of the contact unit carrier at different heights. It is then possible, when at least two contact pairs are formed between a contact element and a charging contact, to ensure a defined sequence in the production of the contact pairing. When merging the contact unit carrier and the charging contact device, a contact sequence is then inevitably always adhered to and ensured due to the geometric arrangement of the contact element relative to the top or the surface of the contact unit carrier. An unintentional or incorrect contact or
- the charging contacts can be formed from printed circuit boards made of metal and / or graphite.
- the printed circuit boards can in turn be arranged on a charging contact carrier made of a dielectric material of the charging contact device.
- the circuit boards can be made of copper, a copper alloy or also stainless steel, and can be arranged on or in the dielectric material at a distance from one another or can be turned on.
- a surface of an underside of the printed circuit boards can be made substantially flat and comparatively large relative to the contact elements, so that any inaccuracies in the positioning of a vehicle can be compensated for relative to the contact device and, at the same time, incorrect contacting does not occur.
- the charging system enables a direction-independent charging process of the vehicle, ie regardless of the side from which the vehicle is contacted with the contact device and is approached to it.
- the contact device is substantially rectangular, then the charging contact device or the charging contact carrier may also be of a quite angular shape, so that the contact device and the charging contact device are then arranged with their respective longitudinal axes in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the vehicle during a charging process.
- the charging system according to the invention comprises a charging contact device and a contact device with a contact unit according to the invention, the contact device or the charging contact device comprising a positioning device.
- the charging system can comprise the contact device which can be arranged on a vehicle roof of a vehicle and the contact unit carrier and the charging contact device, the positioning device being able to have a pantograph or a rocker arm, by means of which the contact unit carrier (s) can be positioned in at least the vertical direction relative to the charging contact unit can, such that an electrically conductive connection between the vehicle and a stationary charging station can be formed.
- a rocker arm an additional coupling gear can be provided which stabilizes the contact unit carrier relative to a charging contact device or aligns it in the relevant direction.
- a pantograph or a swing arm or a corresponding mechanical drive is particularly simple and inexpensive to manufacture.
- the positioning device can also have a transverse guide, by means of which the contact unit carrier can be positioned transversely relative to the charging contact device or to a direction of travel of the vehicle.
- the transverse guide can be arranged on a vehicle or a pantograph or a rocker of the positioning device. In both cases, the positioning device or a contact unit arranged on the positioning device can then be moved transversely to the direction of travel of the vehicle. This displaceability can compensate, for example, for incorrect positioning of the vehicle at a stop transverse to the direction of travel will.
- the contact device can, for example, be arranged on a vehicle roof, so that the contact unit carrier can be moved from the vehicle roof by means of the positioning device to the charging contact device and back.
- the contact device can be arranged at the charging station, the contact unit carrier then being able to be moved by a carrier, such as, for example, a mast or a bridge, at a stop in the direction of a vehicle roof with a charging contact device and back.
- the charging system can include the charging contact device which can be arranged on a vehicle floor of a vehicle and the contact device with the contact unit carrier, the positioning units making it possible to position the contact units relative to the charging contacts in such a way that an electrically conductive connection can be formed between the vehicle and a stationary charging station is.
- the positioning device can then also be formed by a level control of the vehicle, by means of which the charging contact device can be positioned in at least the vertical direction.
- a level control of a vehicle is well known and is used to adjust a vehicle or a vehicle floor above a surface by lowering and lifting.
- a level control can be implemented, for example, via a pneumatically sprung chassis of a vehicle.
- the contact device can also be arranged on a surface that can be driven on by the vehicle underneath the vehicle, as a result of which it is no longer necessary to carry out structural measures on the surface, such as, for example, lifting a pit.
- the contact device can then easily be flexibly arranged on any drivable surface. In particular, by simply assembling and disassembling the contact device on the substrate or its surface, the contact device can be temporarily arranged or set up as required at the stopping point without great effort.

- Fig. 6 is a plan view of a contact element in a fourth
- FIGS. 1 to 3 shows a charging system 10 with a contact unit arrangement 11.
- the charging system 10 comprises a charging contact device 12 which can be arranged on a vehicle floor of a vehicle, not shown here, and which has charging contacts, not shown here, which are formed from printed circuit boards.
- the charging system 10 further comprises a contact device 13, which is arranged on a base 14 that can be driven on by a vehicle.
- the contact device 13 in turn comprises a trough-shaped here trained contact unit carrier 15 and a number of contact units 16 and 17 of the contact unit arrangement 1 1.
- the charging contact device 12 can be lowered onto the contact device 13 by means of a positioning device of the charging system 10, not shown here, so that contact pairs between conductor strips of the charging contact device 12 and the respectively assigned contact units 16 and 17 can be formed.
- the contact unit 16 is used to transmit signals between the charging contact device 12 and the contact device 13, the contact unit 17 being used to transmit a charging current.
- the contact device 13 therefore has a plurality of contact units 17, which are not shown here.
- the contact unit 17 has a contact element 18, which essentially consists of copper or a copper alloy.
- the contact units 16 and 17 or the associated contact elements 18 and 19 are resiliently or movably mounted on the contact device 13.
- the contact unit 16 has a contact element 19, which is shown in more detail in FIGS. 2 and 3.
- the contact element 19 is made of metal, and a connecting line 20 is attached directly to the contact element 19.
- the contact element 19 is bolt-shaped and has a contact bump 21.
- the contact bump 21 forms a contact surface 22 for contacting charging contacts (not shown here) or conductor strips of the charging contact device 12.
- the contact element 19 is formed in the area of the contact surface 22 at least in sections from a contact piece 23 made of carbon or graphite.
- the contact surface 22 is dome-shaped and the contact piece 23 is inserted flush with the contact surface 22 in a recess 24 in the bump 21.
- the recess 24 is designed here as a groove 25, into which the contact piece 23 is glued by means of an electrically conductive adhesive material.
- the groove 25 is formed in the bump 21 so that the contact piece 23 relative to a longitudinal axis 26 of the bolt- shaped contact element 19 is arranged coaxially or symmetrically. A central, highest point 27 of the contact surface 22 is then formed by the contact piece 23. When the contact element 19 approaches a charging contact of the charging contact device 12, an electrical contact is therefore first made via point 27.
- FIG. 4 shows an embodiment of a contact element 28 which, in contrast to the contact element from FIG. 3, has a contact piece 29 which forms a circular contour 30 in a contact surface 3 1 of the contact element 28.
- FIG. 5 shows a contact element 32 with a contact piece 33, which forms an essentially cruciform contour 34 in a contact surface 35 of the contact element 32.
- FIG. 6 shows a contact element 36, with a contact piece 37, which essentially forms a square contour 38 in a contact surface 39 of the contact element 36.
