In order to solve the above technical problems, embodiments of the present invention provide a charging connection method, in which a power supply contact of a charging station is brought into close contact with a power receiving contact on a magnet of a device to be charged by using a magnetic field attraction force, and the power supply contact and the power receiving contact are attracted tightly, so that problems of poor contact, temperature rise and efficiency of a connector contact in the prior art can be solved.

For the convenience of understanding the above charging connection method, the following description will be made in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a charging connection system according to an embodiment of the present invention, which includes a device to be charged 11 and a charging station 12.

For example, the device to be charged 11 may be an unmanned aerial vehicle, and may also be other electronic devices that need to be charged. The charging station 12 can provide not only the parking service for the device to be charged 11 but also the charging service for the device to be charged 11. The location of the charging station 12 may be set at a designated location. When the device to be charged 11 needs to be charged, the device to be charged 11 can be controlled to arrive at the specified charging station 12 in advance to complete charging.

As shown in fig. 1, the device to be charged 11 is integrated with a power receiving contact 111, a first positioning member 112, and a magnet 113. The charging station 12 is integrated with a power supply contact 121, a second positioning member 122, a first magnet 123, a second magnet 124, and a lifting body 125.

For example, the first positioning member 112 may be integrated on the magnet 113 as shown in fig. 1, or may be integrated on another position of the device to be charged 11, and is used to engage with the second positioning member 122, so that even if the device to be charged 11 falls off with a deviation, the charging is not affected by the positioning member.

For example, the lifting body 125 can be moved up and down on the charging station 12, and the first magnet 123 and the second magnet 124 can be mounted on the lifting body 125, wherein the first magnet 123 is movably mounted and the second magnet 124 is fixedly mounted.

For example, the charging wire of the charging station 12 may be composed of a plurality of wires, and in addition to supplying power, the first magnet 123 may be fixed during the ascending of the elevating body 125, so that the first magnet 123 does not generate a large deviation when the magnetic force is exerted to ascend.
