  • Publication number: 20240025290
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a battery conveying system, a battery swapping station, and a battery swapping method. The battery conveying system includes a first conveying mechanism and a second conveying mechanism. When the first conveying system and the second conveying system are located at a docking position, a first support structure of the first conveying system is perpendicularly aligned with a channel structure of the second conveying system, such that when the first support structure of the first conveying system is being lifted or lowered relative to a mechanism body, the first support structure can run through the channel structure, such that a support surface of the first support structure is higher or lower than a support surface of the second support structure in a horizontal direction, so as to allow a battery to be transported between the first conveying system and the second conveying system.

  • Publication number: 20230242004
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a battery swap platform, a battery swap station, and a battery swap method. The battery swap platform includes a parking mechanism, a battery mounting/dismounting mechanism, and a battery temporary storage mechanism. The battery mounting/dismounting mechanism can dismount a battery from a vehicle parked on the parking mechanism and deliver the dismounted battery to the battery temporary storage mechanism for temporary storage, or obtain a battery from the battery temporary storage mechanism and mount the battery on the vehicle parked on the parking mechanism. In this way, in the battery swap platform and the battery swap station provided in the disclosure, the provision of the battery temporary storage mechanism can shorten the battery transport duration, thereby reducing the total time taken for vehicle battery swap.

  • Publication number: 20230242003
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a battery swap platform, a battery swap station, and a battery swap method. The battery swap platform includes a parking mechanism, an accommodating mechanism, and an opening and closing mechanism. The accommodating mechanism is arranged below a vehicle parked on the parking mechanism and has an opening, and the opening and closing mechanism is arranged on the accommodating mechanism. When the opening and closing mechanism is in an open state, the opening of the accommodating mechanism can be opened. When the opening and closing mechanism is in a closed state, the opening of the accommodating mechanism can be closed, and the opening and closing mechanism and the parking mechanism form a vehicle passage path for allowing the vehicle to enter or leave the parking mechanism.

  • Publication number: 20230242002
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a battery swap platform, a battery swap station, and a battery swap method. The battery swap platform includes: a parking mechanism configured to park a vehicle; an accommodating mechanism, which is arranged below the vehicle parked on the parking mechanism, and which has an opening; an opening and closing mechanism configured to open or close the opening of the accommodating mechanism; and a battery mounting/dismounting mechanism arranged in the accommodating mechanism and capable of being lifted or lowered relative to the accommodating mechanism, wherein when the opening and closing mechanism opens the opening of the accommodating mechanism, the battery mounting/dismounting mechanism can be lifted relative to the accommodating mechanism to extend out of the accommodating mechanism through the opening, and perform a battery mounting/dismounting operation for the vehicle.
