A system having a rotating front plate defining a charge port, a motor configured to provide powered rotational movement, and a rotation assembly configured to rotate the rotating front plate using the motor. The rotating front plate is configured to rotate between a first position and a second position. The first position can be 180°from the second position.
A collar mount assembly includes a gear assembly, a first collar, a second collar, and at least one engaging assembly. The gear assembly includes a plurality of gears in a continuous transmission loop with each other sandwiched between the first collar and the second collar. The at least one engaging assembly includes a jig, a threaded rod, and an engagement pad. The threaded rod is received by the jig coaxial with one gear of the plurality of gears. External threads of the threaded rod engage with internal threads of the one gear of the plurality of gears. One gear drives each other gear, thereby causing the threaded rod to move axially according to the engagement with the internal threads of the corresponding gear and causing the engagement pad connected to the distal end of the threaded rod to move radially relative to the first collar and the second collar.
