[0003] At present, the battery replacement modes of battery swap stations include automatic battery replacement and manual battery replacement. Automatic battery replacement means that the battery swap station automatically completes the battery replacement process of electric vehicles based on a preset program. During automatic battery replacement, the battery replacement order is automatically generated and reported.

[0004] However, when the automatic battery replacement fails, the staff of the battery replacement station needs to manually operate the equipment to perform the battery replacement operation. At this time, due to manual operation, it fails to form an association with the station control system of the battery replacement station. The data automatically counted by the battery replacement station will be missing the battery replacement record, and the battery replacement order cannot be automatically generated, which is easy to cause the battery replacement order to be missing and needs to be processed by manual order replenishment, etc. If it is omitted, the order information will be lost, affecting the customer's battery replacement station revenue.

These drawings and text descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but to illustrate the concept of the present application to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0047] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The implementations described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the present application. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0048] As a new energy means of transportation, electric vehicles have the characteristics of low noise, high energy efficiency, and no mobile waste emissions. They have become one of the strategic emerging industries that my country focuses on supporting. Among them, energy supply is an important link in the electric vehicle industry chain, and the energy supply model is closely related to the development of electric vehicles. At present, the energy supply of electric vehicles can be divided into two modes: plug-in charging and battery replacement.

[0049] The battery replacement mode of electric vehicles refers to the centralized storage, centralized charging, and unified distribution of a large number of batteries through centralized charging stations, and the battery replacement service for electric vehicles at the battery replacement station, or an electric vehicle energy supply mode that integrates battery charging, logistics allocation, and battery replacement services.

[0050] At present, the battery replacement modes of battery swap stations include automatic battery replacement and manual battery replacement. Automatic battery replacement means that the battery swap station automatically completes the battery replacement process of electric vehicles based on a preset program. During automatic battery replacement, the battery replacement order is automatically generated and reported.

[0051] However, when the automatic battery replacement fails, the staff of the battery replacement station needs to manually operate the equipment to perform the battery replacement operation. At this time, due to manual operation, it fails to form an association with the station control system of the battery replacement station. The data automatically counted by the battery replacement station will be missing the battery replacement record, and the battery replacement order cannot be automatically generated, which is easy to cause the battery replacement order to be missing and needs to be processed by manual order replenishment, etc. If it is omitted, the order information will be lost, affecting the customer's battery replacement station revenue.

[0052] In response to the above technical problems, the present application proposes a method for generating battery swap orders at a battery swap station, which can take into account the automatic generation of battery swap orders in the battery swap station under the non-automatic battery swap mode, and realize the intelligent and automatic generation of battery swap orders in the battery swap station. It solves the problem of order loss due to manual forgetting to re-record the battery swap order in the non-automatic battery swap mode of the battery swap station, improves the integrity of the order data, and protects the rights and interests of battery swap customers.

[0053] The technical solution of the method for generating a battery swap order for a battery swap station provided by the present application is described in detail below through specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following embodiments may exist alone or in combination with each other, and the same or similar content may not be repeated in different embodiments.

[0054] It should be noted that the executor of the method for generating a battery swap order at a battery swap station provided in the embodiment of the present application is the station control system of the battery swap station. Correspondingly, the device for generating a battery swap order at the battery swap station is also arranged in the station control system of the battery swap station.

[0055] Figure 1 A flow chart of a method for generating a battery swap order for a battery swap station provided in an embodiment of the present application, see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the process of the method for generating a battery swap order of the battery swap station includes the following steps:

[0056] S101, after the electric vehicle enters the battery swap station, continuously monitor the equipment information in the battery swap station; wherein the equipment information includes the storage status of each battery storage slot in the battery swap station, and the driving information of the battery vehicle used to transport the batteries in the battery swap station.

[0057] Among them, since the battery replacement process of electric vehicles, whether it is automatic battery replacement or non-automatic battery replacement, will involve the operation of related equipment, for example, the battery storage and access status can be judged by the battery storage position, and the battery driving information can be used to judge whether the battery is being removed and installed. Therefore, the equipment information in the battery replacement station can be monitored to determine which battery replacement operation stage the station is in.

[0058] Specifically, the battery storage spaces include empty battery storage spaces without batteries and battery storage spaces with batteries. Among them, empty battery storage spaces can be used to store low-power batteries removed from electric vehicles, while battery storage spaces can be used to extract battery replacement batteries installed in electric vehicles.

[0059] Specifically, it is possible to determine whether the electric vehicle has entered the battery swap station by obtaining the location information of the electric vehicle, or to determine whether the electric vehicle has entered the battery swap station by setting a sensor in the battery swap station.

[0060] S102, based on the equipment information, monitor the battery swapping operation stage of the battery swapping station; wherein the battery swapping operation stage includes the battery unloading stage, the battery storage stage, the battery extraction stage and the battery installation stage.

[0061] The entire battery replacement operation of electric vehicles mainly includes four stages: disassembly of exhausted batteries, storage of exhausted batteries, extraction of replacement batteries, and installation of replacement batteries. When the battery replacement station enters different operation stages, its equipment information will also change accordingly. Therefore, the battery replacement operation stage of the battery replacement station can be monitored through equipment information.

[0062] S103, generating a battery replacement order based on the battery replacement operation stage.

[0063] Among them, a battery swap order is generated according to the battery swap operation stage to ensure that the battery swap order can accurately reflect the operation information of the battery swap operation.

[0064] In this embodiment, since the battery swap operation process is basically the same regardless of whether the battery swap station is in automatic battery swap mode or non-automatic battery swap mode, the equipment information in the battery swap station is monitored to achieve a comprehensive judgment of each stage of the battery swap operation, and generate a battery swap order based on the battery swap operation stage. The above order generation method can take into account the automatic generation of battery swap orders in the battery swap station in the non-automatic battery swap mode, realize the intelligent and automatic generation of battery swap orders in the battery swap station, solve the problem of order loss due to manual forgetting to re-record the battery swap order in the non-automatic battery swap mode of the battery swap station, improve the integrity of the order data, and protect the rights and interests of battery swap customers.

[0065] exist Figure 1 Based on the embodiment shown, the following Figure 2 , the technical solution of the battery swap order generating method of the above-mentioned battery swap station is further introduced.

[0066] Figure 2 A flowchart of another method for generating a battery swap order for a battery swap station provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 2 In some embodiments, the process of the method for generating a battery swap order of the battery swap station includes the following steps:

[0067] S201, after the electric vehicle enters the battery swap station, continuously monitor the equipment information in the battery swap station; wherein the equipment information includes the storage status of each battery storage slot in the battery swap station, and the driving information of the battery vehicle used to transport the batteries in the battery swap station.

[0068] S202, when the equipment information meets the first stage conditions, it is determined that the battery swap operation stage is in the battery unloading stage; wherein, the first stage conditions include that the driving position is within the battery swap channel range of the battery swap station, and the motor torque value suddenly increases.

[0069] Among them, the position of the battery car in the battery replacement is within the range of the battery replacement channel, which means that the battery car is within the range where the battery unloading operation can be performed. And when the battery car completes the battery unloading operation, the low-power battery unloaded from the electric vehicle will be loaded on the battery car. At this time, due to the increase in the weight of the low-power battery, the motor torque value of the battery car will suddenly increase.

[0070] Therefore, when the device information meets the conditions of the first stage, it means that the battery unloading operation is in progress, that is, the battery replacement operation stage is in the battery unloading stage.

[0071] S203, when the equipment information meets the second stage conditions, it is determined that the battery replacement operation stage is in the battery storage stage; wherein the second stage conditions include the position status of one of the battery positions in the battery replacement station being switched from an empty position to an occupied position.

[0072] Among them, if the status of one of the battery slots in the battery swap station changes from an empty state to an occupied state, it means that the depleted battery unloaded from the electric vehicle is stored in this battery slot.

[0073] Therefore, when the equipment information meets the conditions of the second stage, it means that the battery storage operation is in progress at this time, that is, the battery replacement operation stage is in the battery storage stage.

[0074] S204, when the equipment information meets the third stage conditions, it is determined that the battery replacement operation stage is in the battery extraction stage; wherein the third stage conditions include the position status of one of the battery positions in the battery replacement station being switched from an occupied state to an empty state.

[0075] Among them, if the status of one of the battery slots in the battery swap station changes from occupied to empty, it means that the battery swap battery stored in this battery slot has been extracted for replacement in an electric vehicle.

[0076] Therefore, when the device information meets the third stage conditions, it means that the battery extraction operation is in progress, that is, the battery replacement operation stage is in the battery extraction stage.

[0077] S205, when the equipment information meets the fourth stage conditions, it is determined that the battery replacement operation stage is in the battery installation stage; wherein, the fourth stage conditions include that the driving position is within the battery replacement channel range of the battery replacement station, and the motor torque value suddenly drops.

[0078] Among them, the position of the battery car in the battery replacement is within the range of the battery replacement channel, indicating that the battery car is within the range where the battery installation operation can be performed. And when the battery car completes the battery installation operation, the battery replacement battery loaded on the battery car will be installed on the reverse electric car. At this time, due to the reduction of the weight of the battery replacement battery, the motor torque value of the battery car will suddenly decrease.

[0079] Therefore, when the equipment information meets the fourth stage conditions, it means that the battery installation operation is in progress, that is, the battery replacement operation stage is in the battery installation stage.

[0080] Preferably, the driving information also includes the driving motion trajectory of the battery driving, and the fourth stage condition also includes that the driving movement law of the driving motion trajectory satisfies the preset installation movement law.

[0081] Among them, in order to improve the accuracy of the judgment of the battery installation stage, the judgment process of the travel trajectory can also be added to the fourth stage conditions. For example, if the battery vehicle is installing a battery replacement battery, its driving trajectory will have an installation movement pattern of down→up→down, or up→down→up, then the driving movement pattern corresponding to the driving trajectory of the battery vehicle can be compared with the preset installation movement pattern. If the two patterns are the same, it can be further determined that it is in the battery installation stage at this time.

[0082] Specifically, the motion trajectory of the battery vehicle can be obtained based on the following method:

[0083] Step 1: When the vehicle is in the battery swap channel of the battery swap station, determine whether the battery vehicle is loaded with a battery based on the motor torque value.

[0084] Among them, since the battery vehicle will carry a replacement battery during the installation process during the battery installation stage, it is possible to first determine whether the battery vehicle is capable of being loaded with a replacement battery based on the motor torque value of the battery vehicle.

[0085] Specifically, when the motor torque value is greater than a preset threshold, it can be determined that a battery is loaded on the battery vehicle.

[0086] Step 2: If the battery vehicle is loaded with batteries, a vehicle motion trajectory is generated based on the position coordinates of the battery vehicle.

[0087] Among them, according to the change of the battery driving position coordinates, the movement trajectory of the battery driving within a period of time can be obtained.

[0088] S206: When it is monitored that the battery replacement operation phase switches to the battery unloading phase, a battery replacement order is generated, and the order status of the battery replacement order is set to an ineffective state.

[0089] When the battery swap operation phase switches to the battery unloading phase, a battery swap order is generated. However, since it is not certain that the battery swap operation can be completed at this time, for example, the customer decides not to swap the battery and puts the battery back on the car. Therefore, the order status of the battery swap order is set to ineffective at this time.

[0090] S207, when it is monitored that the battery replacement operation phase switches from the battery unloading phase to the battery storage phase, the order status of the battery replacement order is set to the effective status.

[0091] When the battery replacement operation phase is monitored to switch from the battery unloading phase to the battery storage phase, it indicates that the low-power battery on the electric vehicle has been unloaded and stored in the battery compartment, indicating that the customer has clearly started the battery replacement. Therefore, at this time, the order status of the battery replacement order is set to the effective state.

[0092] S208, when it is monitored that the battery replacement operation phase switches from the battery storage phase to the battery extraction phase, obtaining battery replacement operation information;

[0093] Among them, when monitoring the battery replacement operation stage switches from the battery storage stage to the battery extraction stage, the relevant battery replacement operation information required for the battery replacement order can be collected.

[0094] Specifically, the battery swap operation information generally includes vehicle information of the electric vehicle involved in the battery swap, battery compartment information, and battery information.

[0095] Among them, vehicle information includes license plate number, frame number, etc., storage location information includes storage location number, etc., battery information includes battery code, battery SOC, etc. In addition, battery swap operation information may also include other operation information such as battery swap start time, battery swap end time, and battery swap fee.

[0096] S209, when it is monitored that the battery replacement operation stage switches from the battery extraction stage to the battery installation stage, the battery replacement operation information is associated with the battery replacement order, and the order status of the battery replacement order is set to the completed status.

[0097] Among them, when it is monitored that the battery replacement operation stage switches from the battery extraction stage to the battery installation stage, it means that the battery replacement operation is completed. At this time, the battery replacement operation information is associated with the battery replacement order, a complete battery replacement order is generated, and the order status of the battery replacement order is set to the completed status.

[0098] Preferably, the completed battery replacement order can be uploaded to the cloud platform for archiving later.

[0099] Preferably, during the battery swapping operation, the number of batteries in the battery swapping station can also be monitored, specifically including:

[0100] Step 1: continuously monitor a first number of battery slots whose slot status is in an occupied state.

[0101] Step 2: If the first quantity is greater than the second quantity of battery slots that were occupied before the electric vehicle entered the battery swap station, the order status of the battery swap order is set to an invalid state.

[0102] Among them, since the battery swap station stores one battery and takes out one battery when performing battery swap business, the number of batteries in the battery swap station is certain. If the first number of battery slots in the occupied state is greater than the second number of battery slots in the occupied state before the electric vehicle enters the battery swap station, it means that batteries have been deposited but not taken out. At this time, it indicates that the battery swap operation has not been completed or an abnormality has occurred, and the order status of the battery swap order should be set to invalid.

[0103] Preferably, the battery compartment status is obtained by the following method:

[0104] Step 1: If the sensing state of the bottom bracket sensor is in a non-contact state and the working state of the charger is in a non-plugged state, it is determined that the battery compartment state is in an empty compartment state.

[0105] Step 2: If the sensing state of the bottom bracket sensor is in the contact state, and the working state of the charger is in the plugged-in state, it is determined that the battery compartment state is in the occupied state.

[0106] Among them, in the battery compartment, if there is a battery stored in the battery compartment, the sensing state of the bottom bracket sensor installed therein should be in a contact state, and the working state of the charger should be in a plugged-in state; if there is no battery stored in the battery compartment, the sensing state of the bottom bracket sensor installed therein should be in a non-contact state, and the working state of the charger should be in a non-plugged-in state. Therefore, the compartment state of the battery compartment can be accurately determined through the sensing state of the bottom bracket sensor in the battery compartment and the working state of the charger.

[0107] In this embodiment, by monitoring the equipment information in the battery swap station and determining the battery swap operation stage of the battery swap station based on the equipment information, the battery swap order monitors the battery swap process throughout the entire process to determine the true direction of the battery, and automatically generates a battery swap order according to the battery swap operation stage. This solves the problem of battery swap order loss in non-automatic mode, improves the data integrity of the battery swap station, reduces the workload of the staff at the battery swap station, and improves work efficiency.
