Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of the automotive industry and more particularly to electric charging systems for motor vehicles, such systems being installed on hybrid or electric vehicles.
- hybrid or electric vehicles generally include an electrical energy storage unit such as a battery, which makes it possible to supply the vehicle with the electrical energy to be transformed into the mechanical power necessary for its traction by a powertrain. Since the battery must be regularly connected to an electrical network in order to be recharged, hybrid or electric vehicles are equipped with electrical charging systems adapted to such recharging.
- an electrical energy storage unit such as a battery
- hybrid or electric vehicles can have an electrical outlet configured to cooperate with an additional electrical outlet of the electrical network.
- the electrical outlet of vehicles can either be in the form of a male plug or a female plug, also called a base, the electrical outlet of the electrical network being a male plug or a complementary female plug so that the two plugs s fit into each other.
- the interlocking of the two electrical sockets can be secured by a locking finger which prevents the electrical socket from being removed from the electrical network.
- a locking finger can for example be caught in the electrical outlet of the electrical network and form a retainer, thus locking it in position with respect to the electrical outlet of the vehicle.
- the electrical outlet can then only be removed from the electrical network when the locking finger retracts, i.e. when it no longer plays its retaining role.
- an emergency system is generally provided forcing the retraction of the locking finger.
- This can in particular be retracted manually by means of a pull tab, which makes it possible to actuate a lever which is mechanically connected to it.
- the lever is for this purpose pulled upwards, that is to say away from the ground on which the vehicle rests.
- Such emergency systems including a pull tab pose accessibility problems. Indeed, the socket of the vehicle being generally landlocked, this pull tab is difficult to access.
- the present invention aims to overcome this drawback by proposing an electric loading system in which the lever is no longer pulled but pushed upwards, such a push being exerted by means of an actuating arm. This system therefore responds to the problems of accessibility of the prior art.
- the main object of the present invention is thus an electrical charging system for a vehicle intended to receive at least one electrical charging member, comprising at least one socket, a socket support intended to be secured to the vehicle and an actuator comprising a locking finger intended to lock the electric charging device with respect to the socket.
- the socket support comprises guide means capable of receiving a separate actuating arm of the electric charging system, the actuating arm being intended to unlock the locking finger after insertion through said guide means .
- Such an electric charging system is intended to ensure the charging of a hybrid or electric vehicle. Such recharging is carried out by interlocking the electric charging unit and the socket, the support of which is integral with the vehicle. It is therefore understood that this electrical charging member corresponds to an electrical outlet of the electrical network, of complementary shape to the outlet of the electrical charging system.
- the locking finger is a pin which is inserted into the electric charging device and forms a stop means for the latter, thereby preventing its removal from the socket when recharging the vehicle. It is then in the locking position.
- Such a locking finger must be able to assume an unlocking position in which it is retracted, in order to release the electric charging member once the vehicle has been recharged.
- the invention provides for the use of an actuating arm capable of unlocking it, this drive arm being for this purpose received in at least least one guide formed in the electrical charging system. The drive arm is thus guided as far as the actuator, with the aim of forcing the retraction of the locking finger to allow the separation of the electrical charging device and the socket.
- the electrical charging system comprises the actuation arm. It is thus understood that the actuating arm can be permanently installed, that is to say placed close to the electrical charging system, or else placed elsewhere in the vehicle, for example within a storage compartment of this vehicle such as a glove box.
- the actuating arm is a rigid rod, the diameter of which is between 6 and 8 millimeters.
- This rigid rod can be a tool designed specifically to unlock the locking finger, but can also take the form of a pencil for example.
- the actuating arm is intended to cooperate with a lever mechanically connected to the locking pin.
- This lever is part of the actuator, which also includes the locking pin.
- Lever and locking finger are mechanically linked, so that actuation of the lever results in reciprocal actuation of the locking finger.
- Said guide means comprises at least one guide capable of receiving the actuating arm.
- said guide means comprises a plurality of guides capable of receiving the actuating arm, in particular at least two guides aligned on the same axis.
- said guide means comprises three guides aligned on the same axis.
- the three guides comprise a first guide, a second guide and a third guide, at least one of the second or third guide being vertically arranged above the first guide.
- the first guide, the second guide and the third guide aligned in that order, the first guide and the third guide being separated by a distance of at least 100 millimeters.
- vertical disposed above means that at least the second or the third guide is above the first guide when the loading system is installed on the vehicle, the vertical direction then being perpendicular to the ground on which this vehicle rests.
- said guide means in particular the first guide, comprises a guide chamfer.
- each guide may comprise a guide chamfer, or the electric charging system may have a single guide chamfer arranged on the first guide.
- the chamfer allows centering of the actuating arm which allows blind positioning.
- the axis passes through the lever.
- the lever is facing at least one guide, so that when the actuating arm is inserted within at least one guide, preferably two guides, it is suitably arranged to come into contact with this lever.
- the socket support comprises lugs for fixing the socket support to at least one structural element of the vehicle, and a rectangular portion surrounding the socket, said guide means being provided on a reinforcement disposed between at least the one of the fixing lugs and the rectangular portion.
- the socket support thus forms a frame of the socket, which is arranged within this rectangular portion.
- This socket support comprises fixing lugs allowing it to be secured to the vehicle that it is intended to equip, the at least one guide being arranged between one of these fixing lugs and the rectangular portion, on a reinforcement which extends between these two elements.
- said guide means is an orifice made in the grip support.
- said guide means is a guide fork provided in the grip support.
- the orifices improve the precision of the guiding of the actuating arm, while the guide forks have the advantage of simplifying the manufacture of the mold of the grip support in which they are provided.
- the invention further relates to a vehicle, in particular of the electric propulsion type, comprising an electric charging system as described previously.
- the vehicle may comprise a base intended to receive at least one hinge of a hood fitted to the vehicle, the socket support being integral with the base.
- Such a base is attached by welding to a stretcher of the vehicle.
- the vehicle is configured to introduce the actuating arm into said guide means by passing through an interior of a front fender.
- the actuation arm can be used through the front fender in several configurations.
- Either a vehicle mudguard has an opening through which the actuating arm is inserted in order to reach the electric charging system, or the vehicle is configured such that it is necessary to remove the mudguard so that the actuation arm accesses the electrical charging system.
- the invention also relates to a method for unlocking an electric charging system as described above, comprising a first step consisting in inserting the actuating arm through said guide means, a step of translating the actuating arm until it comes into contact with the actuator, and a step of moving the locking finger.
- the actuating arm is inserted into said guide means, for example the first guide, using the guide chamfer. It then slides within this guide until it comes into abutment against the actuator, and more particularly against the lever of this actuator. The lever is then pushed away from the at least one guide in a vertical direction, and it transmits the actuation to the locking finger which moves so as to take up its unlocking position in which the electrical loading member can be released from the grip.

- a transverse direction corresponds to a direction parallel to a transverse axis T of the reference L, V, T, this transverse axis T being perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L and to the vertical axis V.
- FIG 1 and Figure 2 schematically illustrate an electrical charging system 1 according to the invention, respectively in front view and in rear view.
- Such an electric charging system 1 is intended to equip a hybrid or electric vehicle 2, in order to enable it to be recharged.
- This electric charging system 1 extends mainly in a longitudinal-vertical plane and has a first vertical end 101 opposite the ground on which the vehicle 2 rests when it is integral, and a second vertical end 102 at a distance from the ground, opposite the first vertical end 101.
- the electric charging system 1 comprises a socket support 3, visible from the rear in FIG. 4, which surrounds a socket 4.
- the socket support 3 comprises a rectangular portion 31, which forms a frame for this socket 4, and fixing lugs 32 arranged on each side of the rectangular portion 31 in the longitudinal direction.
- These fixing lugs 32 make it possible to fix the socket support 3 to the vehicle 2 with which it is made integral.
- they comprise fixing means 320, here screws, which pass through the fixing lugs 32 right through in the transverse direction so as to be engaged in a base 28 of the vehicle, such a base 28 being visible in Figure 6.
- the fixing lugs 32 are not symmetrical; here they have different shapes, making it possible to adapt the fixing of the socket support 3 to the base 28.
- the socket 4 is here subdivided into a main socket 41 and an additional socket 42, the main socket 41 corresponding to a slow recharging of the vehicle while the additional socket 42 allows rapid recharging of the latter.
- Each of these sockets 41 and 42 is capable of receiving a charging device 10 connected to an electrical network, such an electrical charging device 10 being represented in FIG. 3.
- This electrical charging device 10 can in particular take the form of a plug male capable of cooperating with socket 4 which is a female plug.
- the socket 4 could be a male plug and the electric charging unit 10 a female plug.
- the electric charging system 1 comprises an actuator 5, which is a box arranged in the vicinity of the second vertical end 102.
- This actuator 5, particularly visible in FIG. 2, is not in the same plane as the rectangular portion 31 of the support socket 3; it is set back relative thereto when the electric charging system 1 is seen from the front.
- the actuator 5 is of substantially rectangular shape. It has a front face 51 facing the socket support 3, opposite a rear face 52 facing the base 12 of the vehicle 2. It also comprises two side faces 53 which are opposite to each other according to the longitudinal direction and join the front face 51 and the rear face 52, as well as an upper face 54 and a lower face 55 opposite in the vertical direction, the lower face 55 facing the ground on which the vehicle 2 is resting. 51, 52, 53, 54 and 55 define the actuator housing 5.
- This actuator 5 has a locking finger 550 which extends from the lower face 55, perpendicularly and at a distance from the latter.
- a locking finger 550 is shown in dotted lines in Figures 1 and 2.
- This locking finger 550 makes it possible to lock the electrical charging member 10 with respect to the socket 4, by securing them when the electrical charging member 10 is plugged into the socket 4 as is the case in Figure 3, in particular when recharging the vehicle 2.
- the locking finger 550 is able to retract, that is to say to s 'retract at least partly in the housing of the actuator 5.
- the locking finger 550 can take a high position, or unlocking position, in which it is retracted at least partly in the housing of the actuator 5, and a low position, or locking position, in which it is not retracted and protrudes from the lower face 55.
- the locking of the electric charging member 10 therefore occurs when the locking finger 550 is in its low position. It then crosses a partition 310 of the rectangular portion 31 which surrounds the socket 4, and also crosses, in part, the electric charging device 10.
- the locking finger 550 is therefore inserted both in the socket 4 and in the electrical charging member 10. It thus forms an abutment means for the latter, and retains it by preventing its translation in the transverse direction, such a translation corresponding to a withdrawal of the electrical charging member 10 from the socket 4.
- socket 4 and electric charging member 10 can be separated when locking finger 550 is in the high position, since it then no longer forms a stop means.
- the actuator 5 also comprises a lever 530, which is arranged on one of the side faces 53.
- This lever 530 constitutes an emergency system in the event of a malfunction of the locking finger 550 to which it is mechanically connected, in particular when the latter is It is stuck in the down position.
- the actuation of the lever 530 in a vertical direction, and more particularly a movement of the latter in a direction opposite to the ground on which the vehicle 2 rests makes it possible to force the retraction of the locking finger 550.
- an actuating arm 7 is a rigid rod, the diameter of which is preferably comprised between 6 and 8 millimeters. It may be a tool specifically designed to actuate the lever 530, or even an object such as a pencil as shown in the figures, a drill bit or a screwdriver rod.
- This actuating arm 7 can either be fixed, that is to say close to the electrical charging system 1, or placed in a passenger compartment 21 of the vehicle 2.
- the guide means 6 comprises at least one guide 6A, 6B or 6C capable of receiving this actuating arm 7.
- said guide means 6 may include two guides 6A and 6C which makes it possible to define the guide axis of the actuating arm. More particularly, said guide means 6 comprises three guides 6A, 6B and 6C as in the embodiments shown here. Such guides 6A, 6B, 6C can in particular be through-holes, or even guide forks as is the case for the particular embodiment illustrated in FIG. 5.
- the three guides 6A, 6B, 6C are aligned on the same axis A, through which the lever 530 also passes. It is therefore understood that the three guides 6A, 6B, 6C and the lever 530 are aligned along this axis A.
- Such alignment makes it possible to create a guide pin for the actuating arm 7, which is inserted within the guide means 6 to come into contact with this lever 530 and actuate it in order to unlock the locking finger 550. by "actuating” that the lever 530 is pushed upwards by the actuating arm 7, that is to say at a distance from the ground on which the vehicle 2 is resting.
- the guide means 6 is visible without the actuating arm 7 in Figure 4, which shows the socket support 3 seen from the rear.
- This guide means 6 is formed in the grip support 3. More particularly, the guides 6A, 6B, 6C are arranged on reinforcements 33 which extend between the rectangular portion 31 and one of the fixing lugs 32. such reinforcements 33 are plates substantially perpendicular to the vertical direction, which make a junction between this rectangular portion 31 and this fixing lug 32.
- the reinforcements 33 extend towards the rear of the socket support 3, that is to say i.e. on a side of it opposite to that which receives the electric charging member 10.
- the guide means 6 may comprise a first guide 6A, a second guide 6B and a third guide 6C, aligned in this order so that the first guide 6A is in the vicinity of the first vertical end 101 of the electrical charging system 1 and the third guide 6C is in the vicinity of its second vertical end 102.
- the third guide 6C is therefore vertically arranged above the second guide 6B, which is itself arranged vertically above the first guide 6A, this arrangement being assessed according to the distance of the guides 6A, 6B, 6C from the ground on which the vehicle 2 rests. Due to this arrangement of the guides 6A, 6B, 6C and their alignment with the lever 530 along the axis A, we understand that the third guide 6C is facing the lever 530.
- the first guide 6A and the third guide 6C are separated by a distance of at least 100 millimeters.
- the second guide 6B which is arranged between the two, is preferably closer to the first guide 6A than to the third guide 6C, that is to say closer to the first vertical end 101 than to the second vertical end 102.
- This second guide 6B can thus be arranged between one third and half of the distance separating the first guide 6A and the third guide 6C.
- This particular arrangement facilitates the use of the actuating arm 7 by a user, who, due to the arrangement of the electrical charging system 1 on the vehicle 2, operates blind.
- the first guide 6A can have a guide chamfer 61 as illustrated in FIG. 5.
- a guide chamfer 61 has the advantage of facilitating the insertion of the actuating arm 7 within the first guide 6A, this actuating arm 7 being guided towards the lumen of the orifice when it slides on this guide chamfer 61.
- the electrical charging system 1 can be unlocked according to an unlocking method which comprises a first step consisting in inserting the actuating arm 7 within the first guide 6A.
- the user thus positions the actuating arm 7 at the level of the first vertical end 101 of the electric charging system 1, and he causes this actuating arm 7 to slide within the through hole or the fork which constitutes the first guide 6A with the help of the guide chamfer 61.
- the unlocking process continues with a step of translation of the actuating arm 7, during which it slides within the other guides 6B and/or 6C according to the axis A, in the direction of the second vertical end 102.
- the actuating arm 7 translates until it comes into contact with the actuator 5, and more particularly with the lever 530 which is opposite the third guide 6C.
- the unlocking process ends with a step of moving the locking finger 550.
- the stop followed by pushing the actuating arm 7 on the lever 530 actuates the latter, moving it away from the third guide 6C.
- Lever 530 in turn actuates the locking finger 550 by means of a mechanism internal to the actuator 5 and this locking finger 550 retracts, passing from a low position to a high position.
- the locking finger 550 once unlocked, no longer constitutes an abutment means for the electric charging member 10 which is then able to be detached from the socket 4 into which it was inserted.
- Figure 6 illustrates a portion of a front fender 20 of a vehicle 2 equipped with the electric charging system 1 according to the invention. Some parts of this front wing 20 have been removed in the figure so as to facilitate understanding of the invention.
- the vehicle 2 comprises a passenger compartment 21, which is delimited vertically by a flap 22 in the lower part of the passenger compartment, near the ground and by a windshield pillar
- this windshield pillar 24 at a distance from the ground, this windshield pillar 24 being equipped with a windshield 23.
- the flap 22 and the windshield pillar 24 are joined by a front foot 25. This front foot
- a stretcher 26 extends from the front foot 25 and at a distance from it, in a longitudinal direction opposite to the passenger compartment 21.
- the electric charging system 1 is integral with the front fender 20 at the junction between the front leg 25 and the stretcher 26. Here it is partly covered by an intermediate piece 27, which is arranged between the socket support 3 and a vehicle body 2, not shown in this view.
- the electric charging system 1 is integral with the vehicle 2 via a base 28, which is intended to receive at least one hinge of a cover not visible here.
- This base 28 is attached by welding to the stretcher 26.
- the socket support 3 is fixed to this base 28 by means of the fixing lugs 32 and the fixing means 320 previously described in relation to FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the vehicle 2 may include a mudguard covering, at least in part, the electric charging system 1 and more particularly said guide means 6.
- a mudguard can be equipped with an opening through which the actuating arm 7 is able to pass.
- this mudguard can be removed from the vehicle 2 to facilitate access to said guide means 6. It is thus understood that the vehicle 2 is configured so that the arm actuation 7 can be introduced into said guide means 6 passing through an interior of the front wing 20, in the direction indicated in Figure 6 by the arrow D.
- the present invention thus proposes an electrical charging system equipped with an emergency system, making it possible to force the unlocking of a locking finger which makes it possible to block in position an electrical charging member at a socket of this electrical charging system during charging a hybrid or electric vehicle.
