With the rapid popularization of electric vehicles, more battery swapping stations need to be built to meet market demand and facilitate battery replacement. Most battery swapping stations adopt a container structure, with containers installed on the foundation and corresponding battery swapping and charging equipment installed inside the containers to form a battery swapping station. The existing foundations of battery swapping stations are formed by pouring concrete layer by layer on-site, which is a complicated construction process with a long construction period. The construction of the battery swapping station can only begin after the foundation is completed, which is not conducive to the rapid commissioning of the battery swapping station. Therefore, a modular battery swapping station is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0029] like Figures 1-4 As shown, one embodiment of this application proposes a modular battery swapping station, comprising:
[0030] The base 1 includes multiple base plates 101 and multiple connectors 102. The number of connectors 102 is one less than the number of base plates 101. The base plates 101 are horizontal. Multiple base plates 101 are sequentially spliced to form a plate-like structure. Adjacent base plates 101 are connected and fixed by connectors 102. Two spaced reinforcing mechanisms 2 are provided on the base plates 101 to improve the connection strength between the base plates 101 and the padding layer.
[0031] The fixed frame 3 includes multiple vertical plates 301 and multiple connecting parts 302. The number of connecting parts 302 is the same as the number of vertical plates 301. The vertical plates 301 are vertical. Multiple vertical plates 301 are sequentially spliced to form a rectangular frame structure for supporting the main body of the battery swapping station. The main body of the battery swapping station is a container structure and is not shown in the attached drawings of the specification. Adjacent vertical plates 301 are connected and fixed by connecting parts 302. A connecting mechanism 4 is provided on the vertical plates 301 and the base plate 101 to achieve the connection and fixation between the vertical plates 301 and the base plate 101.
[0032] During construction, a site is selected and a foundation pit is excavated. A cushion layer is then filled and leveled within the pit. Next, the base 1 is assembled, ensuring that multiple base plates 101 are horizontal and sequentially joined into a plate-like structure. Adjacent base plates 101 are connected and fixed using connectors 102. The plate-like structure is placed on the leveling layer. Two spaced-apart reinforcement mechanisms 2 are then installed on each base plate 101 to enhance the connection strength between the base plate 101 and the cushion layer, preventing positional shifts and improving stability. Finally, the fixing frame 3 is assembled, ensuring that multiple vertical plates 301 are vertical and sequentially joined into a rectangular frame structure. Adjacent vertical plates 301 are connected by connecting parts. 302 Connection and Fixing: The rectangular frame structure is placed on the base 1, and the vertical plate 301 and the base plate 101 are connected and fixed through the connecting mechanism 4, so that the fixing frame 3 and the base 1 form a relatively whole. Finally, the foundation pit is backfilled. In the actual construction process, a pre-embedded steel plate can be set on the upper part of the rectangular frame structure, and the main body of the container structure of the battery swapping station is connected to the pre-embedded steel plate to complete the construction of the battery swapping station. Compared with the on-site layer-by-layer pouring in the prior art, the components of this application can be produced in the factory in advance and then transported to the construction site for assembly and splicing, thereby improving construction efficiency, reducing the construction cycle, making operation more convenient, and facilitating the rapid commissioning of the battery swapping station.
[0033] In summary, this application abandons the on-site layer-by-layer casting method in the prior art. Before construction, each component can be pre-produced in the factory and transported to the construction site for assembly during construction. This improves construction efficiency, reduces the construction cycle, and makes operation more convenient, which is conducive to the rapid commissioning of the battery swapping station and is therefore more practical.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, stepped grooves 5 are provided on opposite sides of two adjacent bottom plates 101, and two adjacent stepped grooves 5 form a groove. The cross section of the groove forms a T-shaped structure. The connector 102 includes a cover plate 10201 with a stepped structure. The shape of the cover plate 10201 corresponds to the shape of the groove. The cover plate 10201 is inserted into the groove and fixed by multiple connecting bolts.
[0035] Referring to the above, when two adjacent base plates 101 are both horizontal and spliced into a plate-like structure, two adjacent step grooves 5 will form a groove. Then, the cover plate 10201 is kept horizontal and fastened in the groove until the bottom of the cover plate 10201 contacts the leveling layer and its top is on the same horizontal plane as the top of the base plate 101. Finally, the cover plate 10201 is connected and fixed to the groove by multiple connecting bolts, thus realizing the connection and fixation of the two adjacent base plates 101.
[0036] like Figures 2-8 As shown, in some embodiments, the reinforcement mechanism 2 includes a countersunk hole 201 formed on the base plate 101. The countersunk hole 201 is stepped, and a reinforcement cylinder 202 is movably inserted inside the countersunk hole 201. The reinforcement cylinder 202 is a hollow cylinder with a conical bottom. An annular plate is provided on its outer surface. The annular plate corresponds to the countersunk hole 201 and serves as a limiting device. An impact frame 203 and multiple sliding rods 204 arranged in an annular array are slidably disposed inside the reinforcement cylinder 202. The impact frame 203 moves along the reinforcement... The cylinder 202 slides along its length, and the sliding direction of the slide rod 204 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the impact frame 203. Anchor rods 205 are provided on the slide rods 204. The anchor rods 205 are perpendicular to the reinforcing cylinder 202. The reinforcing cylinder 202 has through holes 206 that are the same number as the number of anchor rods 205 and correspond one-to-one. The anchor rods 205 can pass through the through holes 206. The impact frame 203 and the multiple slide rods 204 are connected by a transmission component 207 so that the impact frame 203 and the multiple slide rods 204 can slide together.
[0037] In the initial state, the impact frame 203 is close to the top of the reinforcing cylinder 202, multiple sliding rods 204 are close to the axis of the reinforcing cylinder 202, and multiple anchor rods 205 are retracted into the reinforcing cylinder 202. After the plate-like structure is placed on the leveling layer, the operation of a single reinforcing mechanism 2 will be explained using this example: the reinforcing cylinder 202 is positioned vertically with its tip pointing downwards. The reinforcing cylinder 202 is inserted into the countersunk hole 201. Using other tools, such as a hammer, a downward force is applied to the top of the reinforcing cylinder 202, causing it to move downwards vertically. The bottom end of the reinforcing cylinder 202... The reinforcing cylinder 202 is inserted deep into the padding layer until the annular plate is completely inside the countersunk hole 201, meaning the reinforcing cylinder 202 can no longer move downwards. Then, a downward force is applied to the impact frame 203, causing the impact frame 203 to slide downwards in the vertical direction. At the same time, the transmission component 207 drives multiple sliding rods 204 to slide together in the horizontal direction to a position away from the axis of the reinforcing cylinder 202. The tips of multiple anchor rods 205 pass through multiple through holes 206 and are inserted into the padding layer. Through the cooperation of the reinforcing cylinder 202 and multiple anchor rods 205, the connection strength between the base plate 101 and the padding layer is improved.
[0038] like Figures 7-8 As shown, in some embodiments, the transmission component 207 includes a rotating plate 20701 rotatably disposed within the reinforcing cylinder 202. The rotating plate 20701 is horizontal, and a bevel gear ring 20702 is disposed on the rotating plate 20701. The bevel gear ring 20702 is horizontal and fixed on the rotating plate 20701. A lead screw 20703, the same number as the slide rod 204 and threadedly engaged with it, is rotatably disposed within the reinforcing cylinder 202. The lead screw 20703 is horizontal, and a mechanism is disposed on the lead screw 20703 that meshes with the bevel gear ring 20702. The bevel gear 20704 is vertical and fixed on the lead screw 20703. A sleeve 20705 is provided on the rotating plate 20701. The sleeve 20705 is vertical and fixed on the rotating plate 20701. A spiral groove 20706 is opened on the inner wall of the sleeve 20705. The spiral groove 20706 is opened in the vertical direction. A protrusion 20707 is provided on the impact frame 203, which slides with the spiral groove 20706. The protrusion 20707 is horizontal and fixed on the impact frame 203.
[0039] Referring to the above, when the impact frame 203 slides downward in the vertical direction, the protrusion 20707 will slide downward in the spiral groove 20706. Through the guiding effect of the spiral groove 20706, the sleeve 20705, the rotating plate 20701 and the bevel ring 20702 are driven to rotate together. At this time, multiple bevel gears 20704 will rotate synchronously due to meshing, multiple lead screws 20703 will rotate together, and multiple slide rods 204 will slide horizontally to a distance away from the axis of the reinforcing cylinder 202 due to the thread action, so as to realize that the impact frame 203 and multiple slide rods 204 slide together.
[0040] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the anchor rod 205 is rotatably mounted on the slide rod 204, and the reinforcing cylinder 202 is provided with the same number of limiting rods 208 as the anchor rods 205 and corresponding to each other. The limiting rods 208 are horizontal and fixed inside the reinforcing cylinder 202. The outer surface of the anchor rod 205 is provided with a spiral-shaped guide groove 209, which is opened in the horizontal direction. The limiting rod 208 is provided with a protrusion 2010 that slides with the guide groove 209. The protrusion 2010 is vertical and fixed on the limiting rod 208.
[0041] Referring to the above, when the tip of the anchor rod 205 passes through the through hole 206 and penetrates into the cushion layer, the anchor rod 205 is driven to rotate through the sliding engagement of the protrusion 2010 and the guide groove 209, so that the anchor rod 205 can rotate while moving linearly, thereby allowing the tip of the anchor rod 205 to penetrate into the cushion layer more smoothly.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, two adjacent reinforcing cylinders 202 are connected and fixed by fasteners 6;
[0043] Referring to the above, after all the reinforcement mechanisms 2 have been operated, the two adjacent reinforcement cylinders 202 are connected and fixed by the fasteners 6, so that the multiple reinforcement cylinders 202 form a relatively whole, further improving the construction strength and stability.
[0044] like Figures 2-5 As shown, in some embodiments, the fastener 6 includes a receiving groove 601 opened on the base plate 101. The receiving groove 601 is generally in the shape of an I-beam. Two adjacent receiving grooves 601 are connected. The outer surface of the reinforcing cylinder 202 is provided with three fixing rods 602 arranged in a ring array. The fixing rods 602 are horizontal and fixed on the ring plate mentioned above. The fixing rods 602 are provided with waist holes 603. Two adjacent waist holes 603 are movably inserted into each other. The saddle bolts 604 are composed of a bolt part with a U-shaped structure and two screw heads. The two free ends of the bolt part are respectively movably inserted into the two adjacent waist holes 603.
[0045] Referring to the above, when the annular plate is completely located within the countersunk hole 201, all three fixing rods 602 correspond to the receiving groove 601 and are completely located within the receiving groove 601. At this time, two adjacent fixing rods 602 located on different annular plates correspond to each other. Finally, the two free ends of the U-bolt 604 are moved through the groove into the two adjacent waist holes 603 respectively, and then the two screw heads are tightened to the two free ends of the bolt. This achieves the connection and fixation of the two adjacent fixing rods 602, thereby achieving the connection and fixation of the two adjacent reinforcing cylinders 202.
[0046] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the connecting part 302 includes a dovetail groove 30201 formed on the vertical plate 301. The dovetail groove 30201 is vertical. The vertical plate 301 is provided with a dovetail strip 30202 that is inserted into the dovetail groove 30201. The dovetail strip 30202 is vertical and fixed on the vertical plate 301.
[0047] Referring to the above, when two adjacent vertical plates 301 are both vertical and spliced, the dovetail strip 30202 on one of the vertical plates 301 is vertically inserted into the dovetail groove 30201 on the other vertical plate 301 until the two vertical plates 301 are flush, thus achieving the connection and fixation between them.
[0048] like Figures 2-4 As shown, in some embodiments, the connecting mechanism 4 includes a positioning groove 401 formed on the base plate 101. Multiple positioning grooves 401 are arranged to form a rectangular groove structure. Multiple reserved screws 402 are provided in the rectangular groove structure. The reserved screws 402 are vertical and fixed in the rectangular groove structure. A receiving cavity 403 is provided on the vertical plate 301. The vertical plate 301 is inserted into the rectangular groove structure. The reserved screws 402 are inserted into the receiving cavity 403. Nuts 404 are threaded on the reserved screws 402.
[0049] Referring to the above, when the rectangular frame structure is placed on the base 1, the bottoms of the multiple vertical plates 301 are inserted into the rectangular groove structure. At this time, the multiple reserved screws 402 are respectively inserted into the multiple receiving cavities 403. Finally, the multiple nuts 404 are tightened onto the multiple reserved screws 402, so that the connection and fixation between the vertical plates 301 and the base plate 101 can be achieved.
[0050] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in some embodiments, the positioning groove 401 is connected to the receiving groove 601, and the vertical plate 301 abuts against the fixing rod 602.
[0051] Referring to the above, before placing the rectangular frame structure on the base 1, the two adjacent reinforcing cylinders 202 need to be connected and fixed by the fastener 6 so that the fixing rod 602 can be pressed and limited by the vertical plate 301, which is conducive to further improving the construction stability.
[0052] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use this application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of this application.
