ELECTRIC VEHICLE CABLE MOUNTING SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18117564 titled 'ELECTRIC VEHICLE CABLE MOUNTING SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREFOR
Simplified Explanation
The electric vehicle cable mounting system described in the patent application includes a driving unit with a rotary disc that releases the charging cable through rotational motion, a guide unit that allows vertical movement of the driving unit based on the rotary disc's rotation, and a controller that automates the release and retraction of the charging cable in different vehicle charging modes.
- Driving unit with rotary disc for cable release
- Guide unit for vertical movement of driving unit
- Controller for automated cable release and retraction in different charging modes
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in electric vehicle charging stations, parking lots, and residential garages to streamline the charging process and improve user experience.
Problems Solved
1. Eliminates the need for manual handling of charging cables, reducing user effort and potential safety hazards. 2. Ensures efficient and automated cable management during the charging process, minimizing the risk of cable damage or entanglement.
Benefits
1. Simplifies the charging process for electric vehicle owners. 2. Enhances user convenience and safety. 3. Optimizes cable management and storage.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing electric vehicle charging infrastructure Enhancing user experience in electric vehicle charging facilities Improving the efficiency of electric vehicle charging operations
Possible Prior Art
While there are existing electric vehicle cable management systems, the specific combination of a driving unit with a rotary disc, a guide unit for vertical movement, and an automated controller for cable release and retraction may be a novel innovation in the field.
Original Abstract Submitted
A electric vehicle cable mounting system includes a driving unit including a rotary disc and allowing a charging cable to be released from a side in accordance with a rotation motion of a rotary disc, a guide unit provided behind the driving unit and allowing the driving unit to move in a vertical direction in accordance with a rotation motion of the rotary disc, and a controller controlling the driving unit and the guide unit such that the charging cable is automatically released in an electric vehicle charge mode and is automatically returned in an electric vehicle charge standby mode.
