Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of new energy battery swapping technology, specifically relating to a battery swapping scheduling and battery reservation method and system based on a cloud platform. Background Technology

[0002] Under the nation's latest dual-carbon goals, the development of new energy vehicles is booming. With the government's promotion of new energy vehicles, especially electric vehicles, the battery swapping sector is poised for significant growth. In electric vehicle applications requiring rapid, high-intensity, and continuous operation, battery swapping technology offers greater advantages and economic value for vehicles prioritizing practical efficiency. Furthermore, the battery swapping model separates the vehicle from the battery, allowing users to purchase only the vehicle while leasing the battery. This significantly reduces purchase costs and increases user willingness to buy, greatly contributing to the nation's energy conservation and emission reduction goals.

[0003] In actual operation, different battery manufacturers and battery models may result in situations where a vehicle arrives at a battery swapping station but there is no suitable battery available for replacement. Furthermore, due to the vehicle's own operating routes, the existing battery swapping solutions may involve excessive detours, increasing the vehicle's battery swapping mileage. Additionally, due to the battery charging waiting time at the battery swapping station, there may be situations where a vehicle arrives at the station but must wait for the battery to charge before it can be swapped. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, this invention provides a cloud platform-based method for battery swapping scheduling and battery reservation. The technical problem to be solved by this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a cloud platform-based method for battery swapping scheduling and battery reservation, which is applied to a cloud platform that can communicate with both battery swapping stations and user terminals. The cloud platform-based method for battery swapping scheduling and battery reservation includes:

[0006] Step 1: Receive the site information uploaded by the battery swapping station at the current time and the vehicle information of the corresponding vehicle uploaded by each user terminal; the site information includes basic site information, basic battery information in the station, and real-time battery data in the station; the vehicle information includes basic vehicle information, vehicle battery-related information, and vehicle operating route.

[0007] Step 2: Based on the site information and the vehicle information of each vehicle, filter the destination battery swapping stations that are within the vehicle's driving range and have a matching model.

[0008] Step 3: Calculate the mileage by which each vehicle deviates from its normal operating route based on the vehicle's basic information, the vehicle's operating route, and the basic information of the destination battery swapping station.

[0009] Step 4: Calculate the total battery swapping cost from the vehicle to the destination battery swapping station based on the mileage of the vehicle deviating from the normal operating route and the battery swapping time.

[0010] Step 5: Select the target battery swapping station with the lowest total battery swapping cost as the recommended battery swapping station, and select the batteries in the recommended battery swapping station that match the model and meet the battery swapping standards as the recommended batteries.

[0011] Step 6: Form a scheduling plan with the recommended battery swapping stations and recommended batteries. If a battery reservation request is received from the user, the corresponding scheduling plan is sent to the user and the reservation information is sent to the recommended battery swapping station so that the recommended battery swapping station can lock the recommended battery within the reservation time and wait for the vehicle to arrive.

[0012] Secondly, the present invention provides a cloud platform-based battery swapping scheduling and battery reservation system, including a cloud platform, a user terminal, and a battery swapping station;

[0013] The user client uploads its own vehicle information to the cloud platform;

[0014] The battery swapping station uploads its own site information to the cloud platform;

[0015] The cloud platform performs the following process:

[0016] The system receives station information uploaded by the battery swapping station at the current moment, as well as vehicle information uploaded by each user terminal for the corresponding vehicle. The station information includes basic station information, basic battery information within the station, and real-time battery data within the station. The vehicle information includes basic vehicle information, vehicle battery-related information, and vehicle operating routes.

[0017] Based on the site information and the vehicle information of each vehicle, select the destination battery swapping stations that are within the vehicle's driving range and have a matching model.

[0018] Based on the vehicle's basic information, the vehicle's operating route, and the basic information of the destination battery swapping station, calculate the mileage by which each vehicle deviates from its normal operating route;

[0019] Calculate the total cost of battery swapping from the vehicle to the destination battery swapping station based on the mileage of the vehicle deviating from the normal operating route and the battery swapping time of the vehicle.

[0020] Select the battery swapping station with the lowest total battery swapping cost as the recommended battery swapping station, and select the battery in the recommended battery swapping station that matches the model and meets the battery swapping standard as the recommended battery.

[0021] The recommended battery swapping stations and recommended batteries are used to form a scheduling scheme;

[0022] The user terminal sends a request to schedule a battery swap to the cloud platform;

[0023] The cloud platform receives the battery reservation request from the user and sends the corresponding scheduling plan to the user and the battery reservation information to the recommended battery swapping station.

[0024] The recommended battery swapping station will lock the recommended battery within a predetermined time, awaiting the arrival of the vehicle.

[0025] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0026] This invention provides a cloud-based battery swapping scheduling and reservation method and system. Based on vehicle and battery swapping station information, it selects a matching battery swapping station and a matching battery, then sends the information to the driver and the swapping station to complete battery reservation and scheduling. When scheduling battery swapping, this invention considers matching battery manufacturers and models, reducing situations where vehicles arrive at the swapping station without a battery due to incompatible models. It also considers the charging status of each battery within the swapping station, reducing the waiting time for vehicles to charge upon arrival. Furthermore, it considers the vehicle's original operating route, minimizing detours caused by the inability to find a suitable swapping station, thus reducing vehicle energy consumption, battery swapping time, and saving on battery swapping costs. Based on this, it can reduce vehicle battery swapping costs, reduce the vacancy rate of swapping stations, and thereby improve the operational efficiency of both vehicles and swapping stations.

[0035] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0036] The core idea of ​​this invention is as follows: During the actual operation of a battery swapping station, the battery swapping schedule takes into account both the battery manufacturer and model of the vehicle to ensure that the recommended swapping station has a replacement battery of the same model. The scheduling also considers the vehicle's route, minimizing detours while reducing the swapping distance to improve user experience. Furthermore, the charging time of the batteries within the swapping station is considered to reduce waiting time after arrival. Based on these points, the cost of battery swapping can be reduced, the idle rate of swapping stations can be decreased, and the operational efficiency of both swapping vehicles and swapping stations can be improved.

[0037] This invention provides a cloud-based method for battery swapping scheduling and battery reservation, which is applied to a cloud platform capable of communicating with both the battery swapping station and the user terminal. (Reference) Figure 1 As shown, both the battery swapping station and the user terminal are equipped with ports for the cloud platform. Each battery swapping station and user terminal connects to the cloud platform through its own configured port, thereby communicating with the cloud platform. The user terminal has a mini-program or APP installed. The three platforms communicate with each other via a 5G module.

[0038] refer to Figure 2 As shown, the data interaction between the three platforms is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the following describes the three interactive processes of the guide involved in this invention.

[0039] 1. Battery swapping station: By connecting the battery swapping station to the cloud platform, the relevant basic information of the battery swapping station and the battery data in the battery swapping station are uploaded to the cloud platform, and the battery reservation information of the vehicle is sent to the battery swapping station.

[0040] 2. Mini Program / APP: By connecting the mini program / APP to the cloud platform, vehicle information and battery reservation information are uploaded to the cloud platform, and the information on battery swapping stations issued by the cloud platform is received.

[0041] (1) Configure the port information for the mini-program / app to access the cloud platform;

[0042] (2) Data uploaded to the cloud platform via mini-program / APP: vehicle-related information, battery reservation information;

[0043] 3. Cloud Platform: Calculate a suitable battery swapping scheduling plan based on the relevant information of the battery swapping station and the vehicle, and send the scheduling plan to the mini-program / APP. Send the battery reservation information uploaded by the mini-program / APP to the battery swapping station so that the battery swapping station can make corresponding battery scheduling.

[0044] Combination Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 This invention provides a cloud-based battery swapping scheduling and battery reservation method, including:

[0045] Step 1: Receive the station information uploaded by the battery swapping station at the current time and the vehicle information of the corresponding vehicle uploaded by each user terminal;

[0046] The station information includes basic station information, basic battery information within the station, and real-time battery data within the station; the vehicle information includes basic vehicle information, vehicle battery-related information, and vehicle operating routes; the basic station information includes the station name, detailed address, and latitude and longitude; the basic battery information within the station includes the manufacturer and model of each battery; the real-time battery data within the station includes the current SOC, remaining charging time, and reservation information; the vehicle battery-related information includes the battery manufacturer, battery model, and battery capacity; and the basic vehicle information includes the vehicle's current location, speed, and vehicle model.

[0047] Step 2: Based on the site information and the vehicle information of each vehicle, filter the destination battery swapping stations that are within the vehicle's driving range and have a matching model.

[0048] In one specific implementation, step 2 includes:

[0049] Step 21: Based on the battery capacity and current SOC of the vehicle, estimate the driving range of each vehicle and select the battery swapping stations within the driving range.

[0050] Step 22: Based on the battery manufacturer and battery model of each vehicle, select the target battery swapping station with the matching battery model from the various battery swapping stations selected in Step 21.

[0051] Step 3: Calculate the mileage by which each vehicle deviates from its normal operating route based on the vehicle's basic information, the vehicle's operating route, and the basic information of the destination battery swapping station.

[0052] refer to Figure 5 As shown, this step calculates the mileage L that the vehicle deviates from its normal operating route based on the vehicle's current location, the locations of the selected battery swapping stations, and the vehicle's operating route; the calculation method for L is as follows:

[0053] L = L1 + L2 - L3;

[0054] The distance from the vehicle's current location to each of the selected battery swapping stations is L1, the distance from each of the selected battery swapping stations back to the normal operating route point is L2, and the distance from the vehicle's current location to the normal operating route point is L3.

[0055] Step 4: Calculate the total battery swapping cost from the vehicle to the destination battery swapping station based on the mileage of the vehicle deviating from the normal operating route and the battery swapping time.

[0056] In one specific implementation, step 4 includes:

[0057] Step 41: Calculate the vehicle battery swapping time T based on the vehicle's current location, the location of each battery swapping station, the SOC and remaining charging time of the battery matched to each battery swapping station model, and the battery reservation status of each battery swapping station.

[0058] The calculation method for vehicle battery swapping time T is as follows:

[0059] T = t × (N + 1) + t1;

[0060] Among them, the average battery swapping time per vehicle in the battery swapping station is t; the number of reserved vehicles at the battery swapping station during the time period when the vehicle arrives at the station is N; and the remaining charging time for battery swapping at the time the vehicle arrives at the station is t1.

[0061] Step 42: Calculate the total cost S of the vehicle's journey to each battery swapping station based on the mileage L of the vehicle's deviation from the normal operating route and the vehicle's battery swapping time.

[0062] The total cost S of swapping batteries at various battery swapping stations is calculated as follows:

[0063] S = T × 0.6 + L × 0.4.

[0064] The ratio of L to T can be adjusted according to the actual operating conditions.

[0065] Step 5: Select the target battery swapping station with the lowest total battery swapping cost as the recommended battery swapping station, and select the batteries in the recommended battery swapping station that match the model and meet the battery swapping standards as the recommended batteries.

[0066] Step 6: Form a scheduling plan with the recommended battery swapping station and the recommended battery. If a battery reservation request is received from the user terminal, the corresponding scheduling plan is sent to the user terminal and the reservation information is sent to the recommended battery swapping station so that the recommended battery swapping station can lock the recommended battery within the reservation time and wait for the vehicle to arrive.

[0067] If the vehicle does not arrive at the recommended battery swapping station within the scheduled time, the recommended battery will be unlocked, and the vehicle will wait until it arrives at the recommended battery swapping station before choosing to swap the currently available battery or wait for a new available battery to become available.

[0068] After receiving the scheduling plan, if the driver accepts the plan, the user will drive the vehicle to the recommended battery swapping station and select the recommended battery for swapping. If the driver does not accept the plan, the user will select the battery swapping station, battery, and arrival time on the user's device to make a reservation. The user's device will then regenerate a reservation request and send it to the cloud platform. The cloud platform will then send the new scheduling plan to the user's device and the corresponding battery swapping station.

[0069] Throughout the entire operation of this invention, the operation of the battery swapping station is as follows: Figure 6 As shown:

[0070] 1. Battery swapping station end

[0071] (1) Configure the port for accessing the cloud platform: Configure the domain name, port number and verification password of the cloud platform server to connect the battery swapping station to the cloud platform and ensure normal communication between the battery swapping station and the cloud platform.

[0072] (2) Upload basic information of the battery swapping station to the cloud platform: including the station name, detailed address, latitude and longitude;

[0073] (3) Upload real-time battery data and basic battery information in the station to the cloud platform: including the manufacturer of each battery, battery model, current SOC, remaining charging time, and reservation information;

[0074] (4) After receiving the battery reservation information (including battery ID and vehicle arrival time) from the cloud platform, the battery swapping station will lock the corresponding battery for a specified time period. During the locked time period, the reserved battery will not be swapped. The locked time period can be adjusted according to the actual operation of the battery swapping station.

[0075] (5) If a vehicle arrives at a battery swapping station without prior reservation, it will need to wait for a usable battery to be available before swapping the battery. If a vehicle has made a battery reservation and arrives at the battery swapping station within the battery lock time, the reserved battery can be swapped directly. If the vehicle waiting for battery swapping does not arrive within the time limit, the battery lock will be released, and the vehicle will need to wait for a usable battery to be available before swapping the battery after arriving at the battery swapping station.

[0076] Throughout the entire operation of this invention, the operation status at the battery swapping station is as follows: Figure 7 As shown:

[0077] 2. User side (with mini-program / APP installed)

[0078] (1) Configure the port for accessing the cloud platform: Configure the domain name, port number and verification password of the cloud platform server to connect the mini program / APP to the cloud platform and ensure normal communication between the mini program / APP and the cloud platform.

[0079] (2) Drivers register and log in on the mini-program / APP and bind their vehicle's battery-related information, including the battery manufacturer and battery model.

[0080] (3) The cloud platform will send information about the battery swapping station and the batteries in the station to the mini-program / APP, including the name of the battery swapping station, the detailed address of the battery swapping station, the latitude and longitude of the battery swapping station, the manufacturer of each battery in the battery swapping station, the battery model, the battery capacity, the current SOC, the remaining charging time, and the reservation information;

[0081] (4) After the driver selects the dispatch recommendation function on the mini-program / APP and enters the vehicle's operating route, the mini-program / APP will upload the vehicle's battery manufacturer, battery model, current SOC, current vehicle location, and vehicle operating route to the cloud platform.

[0082] (5) The cloud platform will send the calculated battery swapping scheduling plan to the mini-program / APP, which includes the recommended battery swapping station, recommended battery and vehicle arrival time. If the driver accepts the scheduling plan, the designated battery swapping station, designated battery and designated arrival time of the scheduling plan will be reserved by default. If the driver does not accept the scheduling plan, he / she can choose the battery swapping station and battery to make a reservation and choose the arrival time.

[0083] (6) The mini-program / APP will upload the reserved battery swap station, reserved battery, and vehicle arrival time to the cloud platform.

[0084] This invention provides a cloud-based battery swapping scheduling and battery reservation system, including a cloud platform, a user terminal, and a battery swapping station;

[0085] The user client uploads its own vehicle information to the cloud platform;

[0086] The battery swapping station uploads its own site information to the cloud platform;

[0087] The cloud platform performs the following process:

[0088] The system receives station information uploaded by the battery swapping station at the current moment, as well as vehicle information uploaded by each user terminal for the corresponding vehicle. The station information includes basic station information, basic battery information within the station, and real-time battery data within the station. The vehicle information includes basic vehicle information, vehicle battery-related information, and vehicle operating routes.

[0089] Based on the site information and the vehicle information of each vehicle, select the destination battery swapping stations that are within the vehicle's driving range and have a matching model.

[0091] Calculate the total cost of battery swapping from the vehicle to the destination battery swapping station based on the mileage of the vehicle deviating from the normal operating route and the battery swapping time of the vehicle.

[0092] Select the battery swapping station with the lowest total battery swapping cost as the recommended battery swapping station, and select the battery in the recommended battery swapping station that matches the model and meets the battery swapping standard as the recommended battery.

[0093] The recommended battery swapping stations and recommended batteries are used to form a scheduling scheme;

[0094] The user terminal sends a request to schedule a battery swap to the cloud platform;

[0095] The cloud platform receives the battery reservation request from the user and sends the corresponding scheduling plan to the user and the battery reservation information to the recommended battery swapping station.

[0097] During the system reservation process, the battery swapping station, the terminal, and the cloud platform operate according to the method, thus realizing the reservation and scheduling scheme for driver battery swapping.

[0098] This invention, when scheduling battery swapping, considers matching battery manufacturers and models, reducing situations where vehicles arrive at swapping stations without available batteries due to incompatibility. It also considers the charging status of each battery at the swapping station, reducing waiting time for vehicles to charge upon arrival.
