Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle battery swapping technology, and in particular to a battery swapping communication method, device, electronic device and medium. Background Technology

[0002] New energy vehicles use non-traditional fuels, which can significantly reduce environmental pollution and have significant advantages in environmental protection and energy conservation, making them an important direction for the future development of the automotive industry. With the popularization of new energy vehicles, battery swapping, as a fast and efficient way to replenish the power of these vehicles, has attracted much attention.

[0003] With the gradual promotion of battery swapping technology, the number of battery swapping stations and vehicles is also increasing. In traditional battery swapping methods, multiple station staff are required at each station to guide and control the vehicle during the swapping process. However, manned operation of battery swapping stations increases labor and operating costs significantly. Therefore, unmanned battery swapping stations are needed to improve swapping efficiency and reduce costs. However, unmanned battery swapping relies on timely information exchange and synchronization between the battery swapping station and the vehicle. But since most of the vehicles already in operation have been put into production earlier and have relatively outdated technology, they lack the ability to communicate with battery swapping stations, making it difficult to achieve unmanned automated battery swapping processes on these types of vehicles. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a battery swapping communication method, device, electronic device, and medium to solve the technical problem that existing vehicles cannot communicate directly with battery swapping stations, making it difficult to achieve unattended automated battery swapping.

[0005] On one hand, embodiments of this application provide a battery swapping communication method, applied to a battery swapping server, including:

[0006] It receives the vehicle arrival signal sent by the battery swapping station and sends the vehicle preparation signal to the user terminal.

[0007] Receive the vehicle ready signal returned by the user terminal and send a battery swapping preparation signal to the battery swapping station;

[0008] Receive the battery swapping ready signal returned by the battery swapping station and send a battery swapping start signal to the user terminal;

[0009] Receive the start confirmation signal returned by the user terminal and send the start confirmation signal to the battery swapping station;

[0010] The system receives the battery swapping completion signal from the battery swapping station and sends the battery swapping completion signal to the user terminal.

[0011] This application embodiment uses a battery swapping server as an intermediary between the battery swapping station and the user terminal to forward data between the battery swapping station and the battery swapping vehicle, so as to realize communication interaction between the stations and avoid the situation where existing vehicles cannot communicate directly with unmanned battery swapping stations, thereby realizing the adaptation of existing vehicles to unmanned battery swapping stations.

[0012] In one implementation of this application, sending a vehicle preparation signal to the user terminal includes:

[0013] Set the gear of the battery swapping vehicle to neutral.

[0014] And / or, disconnect the high voltage of the battery swapping vehicle;

[0015] And / or, release the parking brake of the battery swapping vehicle.

[0016] In this embodiment of the application, after receiving the vehicle arrival signal sent by the battery swapping station, the battery swapping service terminal sends a vehicle preparation signal to the user terminal so that the user can adjust the vehicle's battery swapping preparation status. The vehicle preparation signal may specifically include adjusting the vehicle's gear position, high voltage status, and parking brake status. Generally, the vehicle needs to be in neutral, with the high voltage disconnected and the parking brake released before battery swapping can be performed to ensure the safety of the vehicle during the battery swapping process.

[0017] In one implementation of this application, the method further includes:

[0018] Receive battery swapping progress information sent by the battery swapping station;

[0019] The battery swapping progress information is sent to the user terminal.

[0020] In this embodiment of the application, since there are no station staff on duty during the battery swapping process, it is impossible to directly inform the user of the battery swapping progress through the station staff. Therefore, it is necessary to notify the user of the current battery swapping progress through other information channels. After obtaining the real-time battery swapping progress of the vehicle, the battery swapping station can send the battery swapping progress information to the battery swapping server. The battery swapping server then forwards the battery swapping information to the user terminal, so that the user can view the battery swapping progress on the battery swapping application of the user terminal such as the vehicle terminal or mobile device.

[0021] In one implementation of this application, the method further includes:

[0022] Receive the battery swapping failure signal sent by the battery swapping station and send a retry request signal to the user terminal;

[0023] Upon receiving the retry confirmation signal returned by the user terminal, the system sends the re-swap signal to the battery swapping station.

[0024] In this embodiment, after the battery swap is completed, the battery swapping station determines whether the swap was successful. If the swap was unsuccessful, it sends a battery swapping failure signal to the battery swapping server. Upon receiving the failure signal, the server sends a retry request signal to the user to confirm whether to attempt a new swap. If the user confirms, the user sends a retry confirmation signal to the user server. After receiving the retry confirmation signal, the user server sends a new swap signal to the battery swapping station, which then attempts to swap the battery again.

[0025] On the other hand, embodiments of this application provide a battery swapping communication method applied to a battery swapping station, including:

[0026] Obtain the location information of the battery swapping vehicle and send a vehicle arrival signal to the battery swapping server when the battery swapping vehicle is in the preset area.

[0027] Receive the battery swapping preparation signal sent by the battery swapping server and determine the status of the battery swapping equipment;

[0028] When the battery swapping equipment is in a ready state, a battery swapping ready signal is sent to the battery swapping server;

[0029] Upon receiving the start confirmation signal from the battery swapping server, the battery swapping process begins for the battery swapping vehicle.

[0030] When the battery swapping of a vehicle is completed, a battery swapping completion signal is sent to the battery swapping server.

[0031] In this embodiment, the battery swapping server acts as an intermediary between the battery swapping station and the user, forwarding data between the battery swapping station and the battery swapping vehicle to achieve communication and interaction between the stations. This avoids the situation where existing vehicles cannot communicate directly with the unmanned battery swapping station, thereby enabling existing vehicles to adapt to the unmanned battery swapping station.

[0032] In one implementation of this application, the method further includes:

[0033] Obtain the battery swapping progress of the battery swapping vehicle;

[0034] Send the battery swapping progress to the battery swapping server; and / or

[0035] The battery swapping progress is displayed within the battery swapping station.

[0036] In this embodiment, since there are no station staff on duty during the battery swapping process, it is impossible to directly inform users of the battery swapping progress through station staff. Therefore, it is necessary to notify users of the current battery swapping progress through other information channels. The battery swapping station obtains the vehicle's battery swapping progress in real time during the swapping process and then sends the progress information to the battery swapping server. The battery swapping server then forwards the progress information to the user's terminal, so that the user can view the battery swapping progress on the battery swapping application on the user's terminal such as the vehicle terminal or mobile device. In addition to displaying the battery swapping progress on the user's terminal, the progress can also be displayed to the user directly within the battery swapping station through displays, indicator lights, voice broadcasts, etc., thereby ensuring that the user can understand the current battery swapping progress in a timely and accurate manner.

[0037] In one implementation of this application, the method further includes:

[0038] If the battery swapping of the vehicle is not completed, a battery swapping failure signal is sent to the battery swapping server.

[0039] The battery swapping service receives a new battery swapping signal from the battery swapping server and performs a new battery swapping for the battery swapping vehicle.

[0040] In this embodiment of the application, after the battery swapping of the vehicle is completed, the battery swapping station determines whether the battery swapping was successful. If it determines that the battery swapping was unsuccessful, it sends a battery swapping failure signal to the battery swapping server to confirm with the user whether to perform the battery swapping again. If it receives a signal from the user's server to perform the battery swapping again, the battery swapping station confirms that it will perform the battery swapping again. If the battery swapping is successful after the second attempt, it sends a battery swapping success signal to the battery swapping server. If the battery swapping still fails, it can notify the user or relevant personnel for further processing.

[0041] On the other hand, this application also provides a battery swapping communication device for use in a battery swapping server, the device comprising:

[0042] The vehicle preparation module is used to receive the vehicle arrival signal sent by the battery swapping station and send the vehicle preparation signal to the user terminal.

[0043] The battery swapping preparation module is used to receive the vehicle ready signal returned by the user terminal and send a battery swapping preparation signal to the battery swapping station.

[0044] The battery swapping start module is used to receive the battery swapping ready signal returned by the battery swapping station and send the battery swapping start signal to the user terminal.

[0045] The startup confirmation module is used to receive the startup confirmation signal returned by the user terminal and send the startup confirmation signal to the battery swapping station.

[0046] The battery swap completion module receives the battery swap completion signal sent by the battery swap station and sends the battery swap completion signal to the user terminal.

[0047] On the other hand, this application also provides a battery swapping communication device for use in a battery swapping station, the device comprising:

[0048] The positioning module is used to acquire the location information of the battery swapping vehicle and send a vehicle positioning signal to the battery swapping server when the battery swapping vehicle is located in a preset area.

[0050] The ready module is used to send a battery swapping ready signal to the battery swapping server when the battery swapping equipment is in a ready state;

[0051] The startup module is used to receive a startup confirmation signal sent by the battery swapping server and start swapping the battery of the battery swapping vehicle.

[0052] The completion module is used to send a battery swap completion signal to the battery swapping server when the battery swapping of the battery swapping vehicle is completed.

[0066] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0067] This application discloses a battery swapping communication method, device, electronic device, and medium to solve the problem in the prior art that existing vehicles cannot communicate directly with battery swapping stations, making it difficult to achieve unattended automated battery swapping.

[0068] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0069] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a battery swapping communication method provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0070] The battery swapping communication method described in this application can be implemented using a terminal device, a server, or a combination of both. This application does not impose any special limitations on this. For ease of understanding and description, the following embodiments will be described in detail using a server as an example.

[0071] It should be noted that the server can be a single device or a system composed of multiple devices, i.e., a distributed server. This application does not make any specific limitations on this.

[0072] like Figure 1 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a battery swapping communication method is provided and applied to a battery swapping server, including:

[0073] Step S110: Receive the vehicle arrival signal sent by the battery swapping station and send the vehicle preparation signal to the user terminal.

[0074] After a vehicle enters the battery swapping station, the station guides the vehicle and monitors its location in real time. Specifically, it can use voice, video, sensors, or other auxiliary devices to guide the user to the battery swapping location. After the vehicle stops, the station uses visual devices or sensors to check if the vehicle is parked at the swapping station. If the station detects that the vehicle is parked accurately, it can send the vehicle's location status information to the battery swapping server. The battery swapping server may specifically include an IoT platform and / or a battery swapping application server.

[0075] After receiving the vehicle's arrival signal from the battery swapping station, the battery swapping service terminal confirms that the vehicle is accurately parked at the swapping location. At this point, it can send a vehicle preparation signal to the user terminal, which may include the vehicle's onboard terminal and / or the battery swapping application installed on the user's mobile terminal. The user can then interact with the battery swapping service terminal through the application. The vehicle preparation signal may include specific status requirements for the vehicle during battery swapping. Upon receiving the vehicle preparation signal, the user can confirm that the vehicle is parked in the correct location and adjust the vehicle's status according to the requirements in the signal to prepare the vehicle for battery swapping.

[0076] Step S120: Receive the vehicle ready signal returned by the user terminal and send a battery swapping preparation signal to the battery swapping station.

[0077] After receiving the vehicle ready signal and adjusting the vehicle status to a state suitable for battery swapping, the user can confirm the vehicle's readiness on the battery swapping application. The user then sends a vehicle ready signal back to the battery swapping server. Upon receiving the vehicle ready signal, the battery swapping server sends a battery swapping preparation signal to the battery swapping station, informing the station that the vehicle is ready for battery swapping. The station then checks whether the battery swapping equipment, the battery to be swapped, and other related devices within the station are ready for battery swapping, in order to proceed with the battery swapping.

[0078] Step S130: Receive the battery swapping ready signal returned by the battery swapping station and send a battery swapping start signal to the user terminal.

[0079] Once all the battery swapping equipment, batteries to be swapped, and other related devices within the battery swapping station are ready, the station sends a battery swapping ready signal to the battery swapping server. Upon receiving the battery swapping ready signal, the battery swapping server determines that the station is ready for battery swapping and then sends a battery swapping start signal to the user to inform the user that they can begin battery swapping.

[0080] Step S140: Receive the start confirmation signal returned by the user terminal and send the start confirmation signal to the battery swapping station.

[0081] After receiving the battery swap start signal, if the user agrees to start the battery swap, they can confirm the start of the battery swap on the battery swap application. After the user confirms, the user sends a start confirmation signal to the battery swap server. After receiving the start confirmation signal, the battery swap server forwards it to the battery swap station so that the battery swap station can start the battery swap for the vehicle.

[0082] Step S150: Receive the battery swapping completion signal sent by the battery swapping station and send the battery swapping completion signal to the user terminal.

[0083] After successfully swapping a vehicle's battery, the battery swapping station can determine if the swap was successful. This is done by checking that the battery is installed correctly and that other related components of the vehicle are functioning properly, ensuring the safety of both the vehicle and the swapping station. Upon confirming a successful swap, the station sends a completion signal to the server. The server then forwards this signal to the user's device. Once the user views the completion notification on their device, they can drive the vehicle away from the swapping station, thus ending the swapping process.

[0084] This application uses a battery swapping server as an intermediary between the battery swapping station and the user, forwarding data between the battery swapping station and the battery swapping vehicle to achieve communication and interaction between the stations. This avoids the situation where existing vehicles cannot communicate directly with unmanned battery swapping stations, thereby enabling existing vehicles to adapt to unmanned battery swapping stations.

[0085] In one embodiment of this application, step S110 includes:

[0086] Set the gear of the battery swapping vehicle to neutral.

[0087] And / or, disconnect the high voltage from the battery swapping vehicle;

[0088] And / or, release the parking brake of the battery swapping vehicle.

[0089] In this embodiment, after receiving the vehicle arrival signal from the battery swapping station, the battery swapping server sends a vehicle preparation signal to the user so that the user can adjust the vehicle's battery swapping preparation status. The vehicle preparation signal may specifically include adjusting the vehicle's gear position, high voltage status, and parking brake status. Generally, the vehicle needs to be in neutral, with the high voltage disconnected and the parking brake released before battery swapping can be performed to ensure the safety of the vehicle during the battery swapping process.

[0090] It is understood that in other alternative embodiments, the vehicle preparation signal can be determined according to actual needs, and other vehicle states can also be defined as the vehicle preparation signal.

[0091] In one embodiment of this application, the above method may further include:

[0092] Receive battery swapping progress information sent by the battery swapping station;

[0093] The battery swapping progress information is sent to the user's device.

[0094] In this embodiment, since there are no station staff on duty during the battery swapping process, it is impossible to directly inform the user of the battery swapping progress through the station staff. Therefore, it is necessary to notify the user of the current battery swapping progress through other information channels. After obtaining the real-time battery swapping progress of the vehicle, the battery swapping station can send the battery swapping progress information to the battery swapping server. The battery swapping server then forwards the battery swapping information to the user terminal, so that the user can view the battery swapping progress on the battery swapping application of the user terminal such as the vehicle terminal or mobile device.

[0095] In one embodiment of this application, the above method may further include:

[0096] Receive the battery swapping failure signal sent by the battery swapping station and send a retry request signal to the user terminal;

[0097] Upon receiving the retry confirmation signal from the user terminal, a re-swap signal is sent to the battery swapping station.

[0098] In this embodiment, after the battery swapping of the vehicle is completed, the battery swapping station determines whether the battery swapping was successful. If it determines that the battery swapping was unsuccessful, it sends a battery swapping failure signal to the battery swapping server. After receiving the battery swapping failure signal, the battery swapping server can send a retry request signal to the user to confirm whether to perform the battery swapping again.

[0099] If the user confirms a restart of the battery swap, the user terminal sends a retry confirmation signal to the user server. Upon receiving the retry confirmation signal, the user server sends a restart signal to the battery swapping station. The station, upon receiving the restart signal, performs the battery swap again. If the restart determines the battery swap was successful, it sends a battery swap success signal to the battery swapping server. If the swap still fails, the station notifies the user or relevant personnel for further action.

[0100] like Figure 2 As shown, based on the same inventive concept, this application provides a battery swapping communication method applied to a battery swapping station, comprising:

[0101] Step S210: Obtain the location information of the battery swapping vehicle, and send a vehicle arrival signal to the battery swapping server when the battery swapping vehicle is located in the preset area.

[0102] After a vehicle enters a battery swapping station, the station guides the vehicle using methods such as voice, video, sensors, or other auxiliary devices. Simultaneously, the station acquires the vehicle's location information in real time. After the vehicle stops, the station checks whether it is parked at the swapping station using visual devices or sensors. If the vehicle is parked accurately, the station sends the vehicle's location status information to the battery swapping server so that the user can confirm that the vehicle is parked correctly.

[0103] Step S220: Receive the battery swapping preparation signal sent by the battery swapping server and determine the status of the battery swapping equipment;

[0104] After the user adjusts the vehicle status to be ready for battery swapping, the battery swapping server sends a battery swapping preparation signal to the battery swapping station so that the station knows that the vehicle is ready for battery swapping. The battery swapping station then checks whether the battery swapping equipment, the battery to be swapped, and other related devices in the station are ready for battery swapping so that the vehicle can be swapped later.

[0105] Step S230: Send a battery swapping ready signal to the battery swapping server when the battery swapping equipment is in a ready state;

[0106] After confirming that all the battery swapping equipment, batteries to be swapped, and other related devices within the station are ready, the battery swapping station sends a battery swapping ready signal to the battery swapping server, so that the user can be informed that the battery swapping station is in a state where battery swapping can be carried out.

[0107] Step S240: Receive the start confirmation signal sent by the battery swapping server and start swapping the battery for the battery swapping vehicle;

[0108] Step S250: When the battery swapping of the vehicle is completed, send a battery swapping completion signal to the battery swapping server.

[0109] After the user agrees to begin the battery swap, the battery swap station, upon receiving a start confirmation signal from the battery swap server, begins the battery swapping process. After completing the swap, the station determines whether the swap was successful by checking that the battery is correctly installed and that other relevant vehicle components are functioning properly, ensuring the safety of both the vehicle and the swap station. Upon confirming a successful swap, the station sends a battery swap completion signal to the battery swap server to notify the user.

[0110] This application uses a battery swapping server as an intermediary between the battery swapping station and the user, forwarding data between the battery swapping station and the battery swapping vehicle to achieve communication and interaction between the stations. This avoids the situation where existing vehicles cannot communicate directly with unmanned battery swapping stations, thereby enabling existing vehicles to adapt to unmanned battery swapping stations.

[0111] In one embodiment of this application, the above method may further include:

[0112] Obtain the battery swapping progress of the battery swapping vehicle;

[0113] Send the battery swapping progress to the battery swapping server; and / or,

[0114] The battery swapping progress will be displayed within the battery swapping station.

[0115] In this embodiment, since there are no station staff on duty during the battery swapping process, it is impossible to directly inform users of the battery swapping progress through the station staff. Therefore, it is necessary to notify users of the current battery swapping progress through other information channels. The battery swapping station obtains the battery swapping progress of the vehicle in real time during the battery swapping process, and then sends the battery swapping progress information to the battery swapping server. The battery swapping server then forwards the battery swapping information to the user terminal, so that the user can view the battery swapping progress on the battery swapping application of the user terminal such as the vehicle terminal or mobile device.

[0116] Understandably, in addition to displaying the battery swapping progress on the user's device, the progress can also be shown directly to the user inside the battery swapping station through displays, indicator lights, voice announcements, etc., so as to ensure that the user can understand the current battery swapping progress in a timely and accurate manner.

[0117] In one embodiment of this application, the above method may further include:

[0118] If the battery swapping of the vehicle is not completed, a battery swapping failure signal is sent to the battery swapping server.

[0119] Receive the battery swapping signal returned by the battery swapping service terminal and perform a new battery swapping for the battery swapping vehicle.

[0120] In this embodiment, after the battery swap is completed, the battery swap station determines whether the swap was successful. If the swap was unsuccessful, it sends a battery swap failure signal to the battery swap server to confirm with the user whether to perform the swap again. If the station receives a signal from the user's server to perform the swap again, it confirms that it will perform the swap again. If the swap is successful after the swap, it sends a battery swap success signal to the battery swap server. If the swap still fails, the station notifies the user or relevant personnel for further processing.

[0121] The above are embodiments of the method proposed in this application. Based on the same inventive concept, embodiments of this application also provide a battery swapping communication device, the structure of which is as follows:Figure 3 or Figure 4 As shown.

[0122] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a battery swapping communication device provided in an embodiment of this application, which is applied to a battery swapping service terminal, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the device includes:

[0123] The vehicle preparation module 310 is used to receive the vehicle positioning signal sent by the battery swapping station and send the vehicle preparation signal to the user terminal.

[0124] The battery swapping preparation module 320 is used to receive the vehicle ready signal returned by the user terminal and send the battery swapping preparation signal to the battery swapping station.

[0126] The startup confirmation module 340 is used to receive the startup confirmation signal returned by the user terminal and send the startup confirmation signal to the battery swapping station.

[0127] The battery swapping completion module 350 receives the battery swapping completion signal sent by the battery swapping station and sends the battery swapping completion signal to the user terminal.

[0132] The startup module 440 is used to receive the startup confirmation signal sent by the battery swapping server and start swapping the battery for the battery swapping vehicle.

[0133] The completion module 450 is used to send a battery swap completion signal to the battery swapping server when the battery swapping of the vehicle is completed.

[0134] The aforementioned battery swapping communication equipment uses a battery swapping server as an intermediary between the battery swapping station and the user, forwarding data between the battery swapping station and the battery swapping vehicle to achieve communication interaction between stations. This avoids the situation where existing vehicles cannot communicate directly with unmanned battery swapping stations, thereby enabling existing vehicles to adapt to unmanned battery swapping stations.
