The lifting motor adjusts its position according to the first battery swapping signal and lowers the lifting platform until the storage platform is level with the empty battery platform. The control cabinet controls the clamping claw to extend the clamping claw, and at the same time, the power supply base flips. When the empty battery box contacts the flip plate, the hydraulic rod extends and drives the flip plate to lower until it overlaps the carrier plate. When the empty battery box is flattened, the clamping claw releases. At the same time, the first conveyor belt, the second conveyor belt, and the third conveyor belt drive simultaneously to transport the battery box to the storage platform, and the fastener fastens the fixed shaft. S204. The control cabinet sends a corresponding second battery swapping signal to the power distribution room and the battery delivery vehicle. The battery delivery vehicle transports the battery box that has been charged in the power distribution room to the ground area of ​​the tower crane. When the lifting platform is lowered to the ground, the empty and fully charged battery boxes are swapped. After the battery box swapping is completed, the ground staff sends a completion signal to the control cabinet. S205. The control cabinet sends a corresponding third battery swapping signal to the lifting motor and the power supply platform according to the completion signal. The lifting motor lifts the fully charged battery box according to the third battery swapping signal until the placement platform is flush with the empty power platform and the flip plate overlaps the carrier plate. The fastener is released, and the first, second, and third conveyor belts simultaneously reverse their rotation to transport the battery box until the power receiving rod is inserted into the docking port. The clamping claws grip the outer periphery of the fixed shaft, and at the same time, the power supply base flips in the opposite direction. The clamping claws and the hydraulic rod retract until the fully charged battery box is placed vertically.
