Anti-Sticking Device of Inlet Actuator - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17741603 titled 'Anti-Sticking Device of Inlet Actuator

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an embodiment device that includes a housing, an actuator, a drive shaft, a lever arm, and a brush unit. The actuator is operated based on the connection state of a charging plug. The drive shaft rotates along with the actuator and is connected to the lever arm. The lever arm is located outside the housing and also rotates with the drive shaft. The brush unit is seated on the lever arm and is designed to remove debris between the housing and the lever arm while in contact with the housing during the lever arm's operation.

  • The device is designed to remove debris between a housing and a lever arm during operation.
  • The actuator is operated based on the connection state of a charging plug.
  • The drive shaft rotates in conjunction with the actuator.
  • The lever arm is connected to the drive shaft and rotates together with it.
  • The brush unit is seated on the lever arm and removes debris while in contact with the housing.

Potential Applications

  • Charging devices with movable parts that require debris removal.
  • Electronic devices with charging ports that can accumulate debris.
  • Devices with rotating components that need to maintain cleanliness.

Problems Solved

  • Debris accumulation between housing and lever arm.
  • Maintaining cleanliness of charging devices.
  • Ensuring proper connection between charging plug and device.

Benefits

  • Improved functionality and reliability of charging devices.
  • Reduced risk of damage or malfunction due to debris accumulation.
  • Increased lifespan of charging devices.
  • Enhanced user experience with hassle-free charging.
