Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of energy storage container technology, and more specifically, to a battery installation device and method for an energy storage container. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of new energy technologies, energy storage systems, as an indispensable part of the power system, are playing an increasingly important role in renewable energy access, grid peak shaving and valley filling, and emergency power supply. In particular, the construction of large-scale energy storage power stations has become a key task in building smart grids and green energy systems.

[0003] As the basic unit of large-scale energy storage power stations, energy storage containers integrate a large number of energy storage batteries. These batteries are responsible for storing electrical energy and releasing it when needed to meet the needs of the power system. However, the traditional method of installing these energy storage batteries usually relies on manual handling and installation by installers. Due to the large weight of the energy storage batteries themselves, installers need to expend a lot of physical strength to lift and place the batteries. This is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also poses certain safety hazards. If the operation is improper or the installers are overly fatigued, accidents may occur, threatening the safety of the installers. In particular, when building large-scale energy storage power stations, a large number of energy storage containers are often required, which further increases the difficulty of the installation work. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a battery installation device and method for energy storage containers to solve the problems of high labor intensity, low efficiency and safety hazards in the prior art when installing energy storage batteries in energy storage containers.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows:

[0006] A battery installation device for an energy storage container includes a conveying device, a loading and unloading device, a detection device, and a control device. The conveying device is equipped with a conveyor belt and a conveyor driver. The conveyor belt has evenly arranged partitions, with grooves formed between adjacent partitions for placing energy storage batteries. The conveyor driver drives the conveyor belt. A slide rail is provided on the right side of the conveying device, and a first hydraulic lifting column is provided at its lower end for adjusting the height of the conveying device. A pusher is mounted on the slide rail. The pusher includes a hydraulic driver and a moving driver. The moving driver drives the pusher to move along the slide rail. The hydraulic driver is equipped with a hydraulic push rod. A push rod is used to move the energy storage battery within the chute. The loading and unloading device is located on one side of the conveying device. The loading and unloading device includes a load-bearing platform. A storage area is provided at the upper end of the load-bearing platform, and a second hydraulic lifting column is provided at the lower end. The second hydraulic lifting column is used to adjust the height of the loading and unloading device. The storage area is used to place the energy storage battery. A robotic arm is provided on one side of the storage area. The robotic arm is used to grab the energy storage battery in the storage area and place it into the chute. The detection device is installed on the pusher and is used to detect the position of the fixed slot in the battery rack. The control device controls the working status of the conveying device and the loading and unloading device according to the position information fed back by the detection device, so as to install the energy storage battery in the chute into the fixed slot.

[0007] The battery installation device for the energy storage container described in this application enables automated and efficient installation of energy storage batteries, reduces the labor intensity of personnel, and also reduces safety hazards during the installation process.

[0008] Furthermore, the detection device includes a first position detector and a second position detector, which are disposed on the pusher. The battery rack is provided with a first positioning mark. The first position detector determines the position of the fixing slot by detecting the first positioning mark, and the second position detector is used to detect the position of the partition.

[0009] This setup ensures that the pusher accurately pushes the energy storage battery in the chute into the corresponding fixed slot.

[0010] Furthermore, the detection device includes a first distance detector, a second distance detector, a third distance detector, a fourth distance detector, and a fifth distance detector. The first and second distance detectors are disposed at the left end of the conveying device. The first distance detector is used to detect the distance between the conveying device and the battery rack, and the second distance detector is used to detect the distance between the conveying device and the ground. The third distance detector is disposed at the left end of the hydraulic actuator and is used to detect the movement distance of the hydraulic push rod. The fourth and fifth distance detectors are disposed on the side wall of the load-bearing platform. The fourth distance detector is used to detect the distance between the load-bearing platform and the ground, and the fifth distance detector is used to detect the distance between the load-bearing platform and the conveying device.

[0011] By measuring the distances between the conveyor and the battery rack, and between the conveyor and the ground, the accuracy of the conveyor's position and height can be ensured, avoiding errors during installation. Real-time monitoring of the hydraulic push rod's movement distance allows for control within a reasonable range, preventing excessive or insufficient movement from affecting installation accuracy. It also enables timely detection of abnormal hydraulic push rod movements, ensuring smooth movement and installation of the energy storage battery. Measuring the distances between the load-bearing platform and the ground, and between the load-bearing platform and the conveyor, ensures the accuracy of the load-bearing platform's position and height, facilitating the robotic arm's precise placement of the energy storage battery into the chute.

[0012] Furthermore, a first limit switch is provided at the front end of the slide rail, and a second limit switch is provided at the rear end. The first limit switch and the second limit switch are used to control the range of motion of the pusher.

[0013] This setup improves the safety and reliability of the installation.

[0014] Furthermore, the detection device includes a weight detector, which is installed in the storage area and is used to detect the weight of the energy storage battery. The control device calculates the number of energy storage batteries stored in the storage area based on the information fed back by the weight detector.

[0015] This setup ensures the accurate number of energy storage batteries in the storage area, reducing labor intensity and avoiding errors that may occur with manual counting.

[0016] Furthermore, the robotic arm is equipped with a transport unit, which includes a fixed plate. The fixed plate is equipped with a suction cup and a third position detector. The third position detector is located on one side of the suction cup. The suction cup is used to grasp the energy storage battery. The third position detector is used to detect the position of the energy storage battery in the storage area and to determine the position of the chute by detecting the position of the adjacent partition. The control device controls the robotic arm to place the energy storage battery in the storage area into the corresponding chute based on the information fed back by the third position detector.

[0017] This setup enables precise positioning of the energy storage batteries and chutes, allowing the robotic arm to accurately grasp the energy storage batteries in the storage area and place them in the corresponding chutes, greatly improving the working efficiency of the robotic arm.

[0018] Furthermore, the lower ends of the first and second hydraulic lifting columns are equipped with casters, and the casters are equipped with brake devices.

[0019] This design allows the installation device to have good mobility and flexibility, facilitating position adjustment and layout. The braking device can fix the casters to prevent accidental movement of the installation device during use, improving its stability and safety, avoiding accidents, and also facilitating braking during movement, thus improving the operability and effectiveness of the device.

[0020] Furthermore, the control device is equipped with a touch screen display, which is used to display the device's operating status information and input control parameters.

[0021] The touch screen can display the device's operating status information in real time, allowing users to monitor the device's operation and understand its working status so as to make timely adjustments, thus improving the ease of operation.

[0022] Furthermore, the conveying device is equipped with an emergency stop button for emergency shutdown of the device.

[0023] This design improves the safety of the device's operation.

[0024] A method for installing an energy storage battery, used in the battery installation device described above, comprising:

[0025] Step 1: The control device adjusts the position of the conveying device relative to the battery rack based on the information fed back by the detection device, and then adjusts the position of the loading and unloading device relative to the conveying device, proceeding to Step 2;

[0026] Step 2: Place the energy storage battery in the storage area. The loading and unloading device adjusts the height of the load-bearing platform according to the height between the conveyor and the ground. The control device controls the working status of the conveyor belt and the robotic arm according to the information fed back by the detection device. Place the energy storage battery in the storage area into the chute of the conveyor belt. After all the chute is filled with energy storage batteries, the conveyor belt stops working, the robotic arm returns to the starting position, and the loading and unloading device descends to the starting position to proceed to Step 3.

[0027] Step 3: The pusher moves along the slide rail and, based on the information fed back by the detection device, pushes the energy storage batteries one by one into the fixed slot of the current layer of the battery rack. Then, the pusher returns to the starting position and proceeds to step 4.

[0028] Step 4: Determine if the current fixed slot is the top layer. If not, proceed to Step 5; if yes, proceed to Step 6.

[0029] Step 5: Based on the information fed back by the detection device, the control device controls the conveying device to rise one level, proceeding to step 2;

[0030] Step 6: The conveyor descends to the starting height, and the energy storage battery installation device stops working.

[0031] The above installation method enables automated installation of energy storage batteries, improving installation efficiency and accuracy, and saving time and labor costs.

[0032] Compared with existing technologies, the battery installation device and method for the energy storage container described in this invention have the following advantages: they achieve automated and efficient installation of energy storage batteries, reduce the labor intensity of personnel, and also reduce safety hazards during the installation process.

The control device controls the working state of the conveying device 1 and the loading and unloading device 2 according to the position information fed back by the detection device 3, so as to install the energy storage battery 103 in the chute 112 into the fixing slot 101.

[0043] The battery installation device for the energy storage container described in this application, when installing the energy storage battery 103 into the energy storage container, uses a forklift to place the energy storage battery 103 in the storage area of ​​the loading and unloading device 2, and a robotic arm 23 to place the energy storage battery 103 in the storage area into the chute 112. As the conveyor belt 11 moves, the energy storage battery 103 is placed in each chute 112. Then, according to the information fed back by the detection device 3, the control device controls the pusher 15 to move along the slide rail 13, pushing the energy storage battery 103 in each chute 112 on the conveyor belt 11 into the fixing slot 101 of the battery rack 102 one by one.

The specific driving structure of the conveyor belt 11 is the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0047] As a preferred example of this application, the detection device 3 includes a first position detector 31 and a second position detector 32.

[0048] Specifically, the first positioning mark 1021 contains the specific location information of the corresponding fixing slot 101, including the number of layers, columns, and height from the ground of the fixing slot. By detecting the first positioning mark 1021 using the first position detector 31, the position of the pusher 15 relative to the fixing slot 101 can be determined. By detecting the partition 111 using the second position detector 32, the position of the pusher 15 relative to the slide 112 can be determined. This setting can ensure that the pusher 15 accurately pushes the energy storage battery 103 in the slide 112 into the corresponding fixing slot 101.

[0049] Preferably, the first position detector 31 is a laser scanner, and the first positioning mark 1021 is a QR code label.

[0051] Specifically, by measuring the distance between the conveying device 1 and the battery rack 102, and the distance between the conveying device 1 and the ground, the accuracy of the position and height of the conveying device 1 can be ensured, avoiding errors during installation. By real-time monitoring of the movement distance of the hydraulic push rod 1510, the movement distance of the hydraulic push rod 1510 can be controlled within a reasonable range, avoiding the impact on installation accuracy due to excessive or insufficient movement distance. At the same time, abnormal movement of the hydraulic push rod 1510 can be detected in a timely manner, ensuring the smooth movement and installation of the energy storage battery 103. By measuring the distance between the load-bearing platform 21 and the ground, and the distance between the load-bearing platform 21 and the conveying device 1, the accuracy of the position and height of the load-bearing platform 21 can be ensured, facilitating the robotic arm 23 to accurately place the energy storage battery 103 into the chute 112.

When the pusher 15 moves to the position of the limit switch, the limit switch will send a signal to stop the pusher 15 from moving and avoid exceeding the safe range. This setting can improve the safety and reliability of the installation.

[0055] Preferably, the first limit switch 131 and the second limit switch 132 are configured as laser rangefinders. When the pusher 15 moves to a set distance, it feeds back information to the control device to stop the pusher 15 from moving.

The control device controls the robotic arm 23 to place the energy storage battery 103 in the storage area into the corresponding slide 112 according to the information fed back by the third position detector.

[0061] Specifically, this setup enables precise positioning of the energy storage battery 103 and the slide 112, allowing the robotic arm 23 to accurately grasp the energy storage battery 103 in the storage area and place it in the corresponding slide 112, greatly improving the working efficiency of the robotic arm 23.
