Automatic battery replacement system and method for mobile equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic battery replacement system and replacement method for mobile equipment, and the system achieves the purpose of quickly replacing a battery through connecting witha charging seat and then replacing the fully charged battery in the charging seat into the mobile equipment through a driving mechanism, thereby improving the long-time working capability of the mobile equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of automatic control, in particular to an automatic battery replacement system and method for mobile equipment. Background technique [0002] The battery of an electric-driven mobile device is its power component, which is very important for the normal operation of the device. There are many types of mobile devices, the most common of which are mobile robots for industrial applications. The current robots are sweeping robots, service robots, and logistics transportation robots. The battery system is fixed inside the machine body. When the machine runs to a very low power level, it will automatically return to the charging stand for charging or the machine will be sent to the charging stand for charging. In order to ensure the battery life of the machine, most of them increase the battery capacity. However, the biggest pain point is that the increase in battery capacity itself will increase the overall weight of the ma...

[0002] The battery of an electric-driven mobile device is its power component, which is very important for the normal operation of the device. There are many types of mobile devices, the most common of which are mobile robots for industrial applications. The current robots are sweeping robots, service robots, and logistics transportation robots. The battery system is fixed inside the machine body. When the machine runs to a very low power level, it will automatically return to the charging stand for charging or the machine will be sent to the charging stand for charging. In order to ensure the battery life of the machine, most of them increase the battery capacity. However, the biggest pain point is that the increase in battery capacity itself will increase the overall weight of the machine, thereby increasing the load on the machine and consuming more power. Therefore, the battery cannot be enlarged infinitely, and because the battery itself Excessive capacity will also lead to long charging time, so at present, it is necessary to find a balance point in battery capacity, which makes the current robot system unable to run for a long time, and the most important thing for the simple labor of replacing humans with robots is to have good Only economic benefits are meaningful. The robot cannot work for a long time, or it needs to be charged for a period of time after working for a period of time, which will inevitably lead to a decrease in the working efficiency of the robot, thereby prolonging the investment recovery period and reducing the user experience.
