Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of vehicle battery replacement information management, and specifically relates to a battery replacement record management method and system for a battery replacement station. Background Art

[0002] In the era of "dual carbon" goals, my country's electric vehicle industry has developed rapidly. In order to ensure the continuous driving of electric vehicles, the energy replenishment of power batteries is particularly important, and energy replenishment can be achieved in two modes: charging and battery replacement. Compared with the traditional charging mode, the "vehicle-battery separation" battery replacement mode can achieve 3-5 minutes of rapid energy replenishment, which is more efficient.

[0003] A battery swap station is an energy station that provides rapid replacement of power batteries for electric vehicles. According to different operation modes, battery swap stations include integrated charging and swapping stations that provide both vehicle battery swapping and charging of replaced batteries, and decentralized battery swapping stations that only provide vehicle battery swapping. The difference lies in the station facilities. Integrated charging and swapping stations generally use fixed battery racks to store power batteries. The battery compartments on the battery racks are connected to chargers to charge power batteries, including batteries replaced by vehicles. Decentralized battery swapping stations generally use transfer carts to store power batteries that can be used for battery swapping and store batteries replaced by vehicles. When there are no replaceable batteries on the transfer cart, the transfer cart will pull the exhausted batteries to the charging station for charging. The transfer cart is equivalent to a mobile battery rack, and the cart's intelligent terminal can collect battery information in each battery compartment on the cart.

[0004] Most of the current research in the field of battery swapping focuses on the control of the battery swapping process, and there are few reports on the generation and maintenance of battery swapping records. However, battery swapping records are crucial for the operation of battery swapping stations, such as billing settlement and statistical analysis of battery swapping at battery swapping stations. The Chinese invention patent with application publication number CN116433165A related to the generation and maintenance of battery swapping records involves a method for generating battery swapping records, which generates an order for the battery swapping of the vehicle based on vehicle information, and records the parameter information generated during the battery swapping process as the battery swapping record corresponding to the battery swapping order. After generating a battery swapping record corresponding to the battery swapping order based on the battery on the vehicle and the battery change information at the battery swapping station within a preset reference time period, the battery swapping record is automatically recorded in the cloud platform. This method can only supplement the battery swapping record by determining whether the battery swapping record exists. If the battery swapping record does not exist, it will be repeatedly generated to make up for it. It is impossible to take timely remedial measures for incomplete battery swapping records. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a battery swap record management method and system for a battery swap station, which is used to solve the problem that in the prior art, it can only be determined whether the battery swap record exists, but it is difficult to determine whether the battery swap record is complete.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a battery replacement record management method for a battery replacement station, which preliminarily generates a battery replacement record containing the vehicle identity information after the vehicle starts to replace the battery and before the vehicle battery is stored in the battery replacement station;

[0007] After the replaced battery of the vehicle is successfully stored in the battery swap station according to the selected storage location where the replaced battery of the vehicle needs to be stored, and after the battery taken out of the battery swap station is successfully placed in the vehicle according to the storage location where the battery of the vehicle needs to be taken out and replaced, supplementary information including the information of the replaced battery of the vehicle and the information of the replaced battery of the vehicle are obtained respectively and added to the battery swap record; if the vehicle leaves and its corresponding battery swap record contains the supplementary information, a battery swap success mark is added to the battery swap record;

[0008] If the battery replacement record corresponding to the identity information of the vehicle whose battery has been replaced exists but the battery replacement success mark does not exist, the supplementary information will be recorded; if the battery replacement record does not exist, the entire battery replacement record will be recorded; otherwise, no supplement will be made.

[0009] Furthermore, when the battery swap vehicle enters the station, the battery information including the battery code of each battery in the battery swap station is obtained as the initial battery information of this battery swap, and the on-board battery code and the corresponding battery SOC information are obtained; when the battery swap vehicle leaves, the battery information of each battery in the battery swap station is obtained as the final battery information of this battery swap;

[0010] The method of supplementing the supplementary information includes: comparing the battery codes in the initial battery information and the final battery information of the battery replacement; determining the battery placed in the vehicle according to the battery code missing in the final battery information compared with the initial battery information; and determining the battery replaced by the vehicle according to the obtained vehicle battery code;

[0011] Based on the information of the battery replaced by the vehicle, supplementary information containing the information of the battery replaced by the vehicle is obtained and added to the corresponding battery replacement record for supplementary recording; based on the information of the battery placed in the vehicle and the battery SOC information corresponding to the obtained on-board battery code, supplementary information containing the information of the battery replaced by the vehicle is obtained and added to the corresponding battery replacement record for supplementary recording.

[0012] Furthermore, the initially generated battery swap record also includes the time when the battery swap started;

[0013] When the battery swap vehicle enters the station, the battery information including the battery code of each battery in the battery swap station is obtained as the initial battery information of this battery swap, and the on-board battery code and the corresponding battery SOC information are obtained, and the vehicle entry time is recorded; when the battery swap vehicle leaves, the battery information of each battery in the battery swap station is obtained as the final battery information of this battery swap;

[0014] The overall method of supplementing the battery replacement record includes:

[0015] The vehicle entry time is used as the start time of battery replacement, and the initial battery replacement record is obtained in combination with the vehicle identity information; the battery codes in the initial battery information and the final battery information of this battery replacement are compared; the battery placed in the vehicle is determined based on the battery code missing in the final battery information compared to the initial battery information; the battery replaced by the vehicle is determined based on the obtained on-board battery code;

[0016] Based on the information of the battery replaced by the vehicle, supplementary information containing the information of the battery replaced by the vehicle is obtained and added to the initially generated battery replacement record. Based on the information of the battery placed in the vehicle and the battery SOC information corresponding to the acquired on-board battery code, supplementary information containing the information of the battery replaced by the vehicle is obtained and added to the initially generated battery replacement record, so as to supplement the entire battery replacement record.

[0017] Furthermore, after the vehicle enters the battery swap station, the battery information of the vehicle battery including the battery code and / or the battery SOC obtained from the vehicle is cached; the method for determining whether the vehicle battery is successfully stored in the battery swap station includes:

[0018] When the battery information including the battery code and / or battery SOC of the storage space where the vehicle needs to store the replaced battery is obtained from the battery swap station, the cached battery information obtained from the vehicle is compared and verified with the battery information in the storage space where the vehicle needs to store the replaced battery obtained from the battery swap station to obtain a storage verification result; if the storage verification result is a successful verification, it is determined that the replacement of the vehicle's battery is successfully stored in the battery swap station; otherwise, it is determined that the replacement of the vehicle's battery is unsuccessful in being stored in the battery swap station.

[0019] Furthermore, after the vehicle enters the battery swap station, the battery information including the battery code and / or the battery SOC obtained from each battery compartment of the battery swap station is cached; the method for determining whether the battery taken out of the battery swap station and put into the vehicle is successful includes:

[0020] When the battery information containing the battery code of the battery replaced in the vehicle is obtained from the vehicle side, the cached battery information obtained from the compartment of the battery to be removed and replaced in the vehicle is verified with the battery information of the battery replaced in the vehicle obtained from the vehicle side to obtain the replacement verification result; if the replacement verification result is a successful verification, it is determined that the battery is successfully removed from the battery swap station and placed in the vehicle; if the replacement verification result is a failed verification, it is determined that the battery is unsuccessfully removed from the battery swap station and placed in the vehicle.

[0021] Furthermore, the vehicle identity information, on-board battery code and corresponding battery SOC information are directly obtained through a communication connection established with a vehicle control terminal; the initial battery information and final battery information are directly obtained through a communication connection established with a communicative device associated with a battery compartment of each battery in the battery swap station.

[0022] Furthermore, if the communication connection established with the vehicle control terminal fails or the communication connection established with the communicative device associated with the battery compartment of each battery in the battery swap station fails, the battery swap record cannot be obtained, and the initially generated battery swap record and supplementary information are manually entered accordingly.

[0023] Furthermore, if the manually entered battery replacement record contains supplementary information including information about the battery removed from the vehicle and information about the battery replaced on the vehicle, a battery replacement success mark is added to the manually entered battery replacement record;

[0024] If the battery replacement record corresponding to the identity information of the vehicle whose battery has been replaced exists but the battery replacement success mark does not exist, the supplementary information will be recorded; if the battery replacement record does not exist, the entire battery replacement record will be recorded; otherwise, no supplement will be made.

[0025] Beneficial effect: The present invention provides a new battery swap record management method for a battery swap station, which divides the generation of battery swap records into two parts. One part is a preliminary generation part that basically does not involve a specific battery swap process and is therefore not prone to generation failure (i.e., a battery swap record containing the vehicle identity information that is preliminarily generated after the vehicle starts to swap batteries and before the on-board battery is stored in the battery swap station); the other part is supplementary information that is generated during the battery swap process and added to the preliminary generated battery swap record, which is prone to generation failure due to an abnormality in the battery swap process; and after the vehicle has completed the battery swap and left (according to the generation process of the battery swap record, under normal circumstances the battery swap record at this time should have included the preliminary generation part and the supplementary information), the battery swap record is checked, and the battery swap success mark indicates that the supplementary information has been successfully added, so it is possible to directly judge whether the supplementary information appears through the battery swap success mark. In the case of failed addition, this case corresponds to the incomplete battery swap record, so the incomplete battery swap record can be discovered in time and supplemented in time; if there are a few abnormal cases where the initial generation fails, the initial generation of the battery swap record will not be generated at all, and the supplementary information cannot be added to the initial generation of the battery swap record. Therefore, in the case of partial failure of the initial generation, the battery swap record does not exist directly, that is, an incomplete battery swap record containing only supplementary information will not be generated, which is equivalent to eliminating the generation of such incomplete battery swap records. Therefore, there is no need to check the incomplete battery swap record containing only supplementary information, and the whole record can be supplemented; thereby, the corresponding content of the battery swap record that fails to be generated can be supplemented in time and accurately, that is, the battery swap record can be effectively maintained on the basis of generating the battery swap record, so that the battery swap record is more accurate.

[0026] The present invention also provides a battery swap record management system for a battery swap station, comprising a processor, wherein the processor is used to execute a computer program to implement the steps of the battery swap record management method for the battery swap station.

[0027] The battery swap record management system of the battery swap station can achieve the same beneficial effects as the battery swap record management method of the battery swap station mentioned above. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0032] Embodiment of a method for managing battery swap records at a battery swap station

[0033] This embodiment provides a battery swap record management method for a battery swap station, which preliminarily generates a battery swap record containing the vehicle's identity information after the vehicle starts to swap batteries and before the vehicle's onboard battery is stored in the battery swap station;

[0034] After the replaced battery of the vehicle is successfully stored in the battery swap station according to the selected storage location where the replaced battery of the vehicle needs to be stored, and after the battery taken out of the battery swap station is successfully placed in the vehicle according to the storage location where the battery of the vehicle needs to be taken out and replaced, supplementary information including the information of the replaced battery of the vehicle and the information of the replaced battery of the vehicle are obtained respectively and added to the battery swap record; if the vehicle leaves and its corresponding battery swap record contains the supplementary information, a battery swap success mark is added to the battery swap record;

[0035] If the battery replacement record corresponding to the identity information of the vehicle whose battery has been replaced exists but the battery replacement success mark does not exist, the supplementary information will be recorded; if the battery replacement record does not exist, the entire battery replacement record will be recorded; otherwise, no supplement will be made.

[0036] Specifically, Figure 1As shown, when the vehicle driver initiates a battery swap request and the authentication is passed, the monitoring system initially generates a battery swap record, which includes the identification of the battery swap station, the start time of the battery swap, the VIN code of the battery swap vehicle, and the license plate number of the battery swap vehicle; the monitoring system optimizes the battery storage and retrieval positions for the vehicle to be swapped, sends the optimized battery storage and retrieval position information to the battery swap robot, and caches the information of these two positions accordingly. The battery swap robot successfully takes the on-board battery and stores it in the battery rack, and the battery swap record adds supplementary information, namely, the vehicle's battery replacement code, battery SOC information, and the battery storage position information of the vehicle's battery replacement. The battery swap robot successfully takes the battery from the battery rack and puts it in the battery swap vehicle, and the battery swap record adds supplementary information, namely, the vehicle's battery replacement code, battery SOC information, and the battery retrieval position information of the vehicle's battery replacement. If the vehicle leaves and its corresponding battery swap record contains the above-mentioned supplementary information, a battery swap success mark is added to the battery swap record; if the battery swap record corresponding to the vehicle identity information exists but the battery swap success mark does not exist, it means that the supplementary information has failed, and the above-mentioned supplementary information is recorded in this case; if the battery swap record does not exist, it means that the battery swap record was not generated during the initial generation, and the entire battery swap record is recorded in this case (the supplementary content includes all the contents of the initially generated battery swap record part and the supplementary information part).

[0037] In this embodiment, when the vehicle enters the battery swap station, the battery information of the vehicle battery including the battery code and / or the battery SOC obtained from the vehicle is cached; the method for determining whether the vehicle battery replaced by the vehicle is successfully stored in the battery swap station includes:

[0038] When the battery information including the battery code and / or battery SOC of the storage space where the vehicle's replaced battery needs to be stored is obtained from the battery swap station, the cached battery information obtained from the vehicle is compared and verified with the battery information in the storage space where the vehicle's replaced battery needs to be stored obtained from the battery swap station to obtain a storage verification result; if the storage verification result is a successful verification, it is determined that the vehicle's replaced battery is successfully stored in the battery swap station; otherwise, it is determined that the vehicle's replaced battery is unsuccessful in being stored in the battery swap station.

[0039] Specifically, if the warehouse is connected to a charger or a transfer cart (the transfer cart is a transfer device that acts as a mobile battery rack in a decentralized battery swap station, and the smart terminal of the cart can collect battery information in each battery compartment on the cart), the smart terminal SBOX can obtain the battery information in the warehouse (that is, the battery information in the warehouse where the vehicle needs to store the battery after replacing it), then the obtained battery code and SOC information can be compared with the on-board battery information obtained by the cached vehicle intelligent control terminal TBox (that is, the cached battery information obtained from the vehicle end). If the battery code verification fails, the battery replacement record will not add the vehicle battery replacement information.

[0040] After the vehicle enters the battery swap station, the battery information including the battery code and / or battery SOC obtained from each battery compartment of the battery swap station is cached; the method for determining whether the battery taken out of the battery swap station and put into the vehicle is successful includes:

[0041] When the battery information containing the battery code of the battery replaced in the vehicle is obtained from the vehicle side, the cached battery information obtained from the compartment of the battery to be removed and replaced in the vehicle is verified with the battery information of the battery replaced in the vehicle obtained from the vehicle side to obtain the replacement verification result; if the replacement verification result is a successful verification, it is determined that the battery is successfully removed from the battery swap station and placed in the vehicle; if the replacement verification result is a failed verification, it is determined that the battery is unsuccessfully removed from the battery swap station and placed in the vehicle.

[0042] Specifically, if the vehicle intelligent control terminal TBox can obtain the on-board battery information (i.e., the battery information of the vehicle battery replaced obtained from the vehicle end), the obtained battery code and SOC information can also be compared and verified with the cached battery information in the battery compartment obtained by connecting the battery compartment on the battery rack to the charger or the transfer vehicle intelligent terminal SBOX (i.e., the cached battery information obtained from the compartment where the battery needs to be removed and replaced on the vehicle). If the battery code verification fails, the battery replacement record will not add the vehicle battery replacement information.

[0043] When the battery swap vehicle is locked and leaves, the battery swap end time and the battery swap success mark are added to the battery swap record; the monitoring system again obtains the battery information in each battery compartment through the battery compartment on the battery rack connected to the charger or the transfer cart intelligent terminal SBOX, so as to maintain the abnormal battery swap record (i.e. add the corresponding supplementary information).

[0044] In this embodiment, when the battery swap vehicle enters the station, the battery information including the battery code of each battery in the battery swap station is obtained as the initial battery information of this battery swap, and the on-board battery code and the corresponding battery SOC information are obtained; when the battery swap vehicle leaves, the battery information of each battery in the battery swap station is obtained as the final battery information of this battery swap. The above-mentioned vehicle identity information, on-board battery code and corresponding battery SOC information are directly obtained through the communication connection established with the vehicle control terminal; the above-mentioned initial battery information and final battery information are directly obtained through the communication connection established with the communication device associated with the battery compartment of each battery in the battery swap station.

[0045] Specifically, when the vehicle to be replaced enters the battery replacement station, before the battery replacement begins, the vehicle intelligent control terminal TBox establishes a communication connection with the monitoring system. At this time, the monitoring system cache obtains the battery information in each battery compartment through the battery compartment on the battery rack connected to the charger or the transfer cart intelligent terminal SBOX (the battery information is used as the initial battery information for this battery replacement, and the initial battery information contains the battery code of each battery in the battery replacement station) and the identity information of the vehicle to be replaced obtained through the vehicle TBox (the identity information of the vehicle to be replaced contains the license plate number and vin code of the battery replacement vehicle and other information) as well as the on-board battery code and battery SOC information (i.e. the battery information of the vehicle replaced); when the battery-replaced vehicle is locked and leaves, the battery replacement is completed. At this time, the monitoring system will again obtain the battery information in each battery compartment through the battery compartment on the battery rack connected to the charger or the transfer cart intelligent terminal SBOX (the battery information is used as the final battery information for this battery replacement, and the final battery information contains the battery code of each battery in the battery replacement station).

[0046] The method of supplementing the supplementary information includes: comparing the initial battery information of this battery replacement with the battery codes in the final battery information; determining the battery placed in the vehicle based on the battery code missing in the final battery information compared to the initial battery information; and determining the battery replaced by the vehicle based on the obtained on-board battery code.

[0047] In this embodiment, the initially generated battery replacement record also includes the time when the battery replacement started;

[0048] When the battery swap vehicle enters the station, the battery information including the battery code of each battery in the battery swap station is obtained as the initial battery information of this battery swap, and the on-board battery code and the corresponding battery SOC information are obtained, and the vehicle entry time is recorded; when the battery swap vehicle leaves, the battery information of each battery in the battery swap station is obtained as the final battery information of this battery swap;

[0049] Specifically, in the case of abnormal battery swapping service, such as failure to select a battery rack to take a battery slot, failure to store a vehicle-mounted battery in a battery slot, or failure of a battery swapping robot during the battery swapping process, after the problem is resolved, the battery swapping is performed manually, and a complete battery swapping record cannot be initially generated according to the battery swapping service process. At this time, the initially generated battery swapping record is supplemented with information obtained from the vehicle's battery replacement information, vehicle battery replacement information, and vehicle information. That is, the monitoring system obtains the battery information in each battery compartment by connecting each battery compartment on the battery rack to the charger or the transfer cart intelligent terminal SBOX according to the cached battery swap vehicle when it enters the station, and obtains the battery information in each battery compartment through the vehicle TBox, the on-board battery code, and the battery SOC information, and when the vehicle leaves, it obtains the battery information in each battery compartment by connecting each battery compartment on the battery rack to the charger or the transfer cart intelligent terminal SBOX for comparison, and obtains the missing battery code in the battery information in each battery compartment obtained at the end of the battery swap, and determines the battery placed in the vehicle through the battery code; then determines the battery replaced by the vehicle through the obtained on-board battery code and battery SOC information (i.e. the battery replaced by the vehicle information), and maintains the battery swap record based on the supplementary information required above. The specific process of adding supplementary information to the battery swap record and supplementing the battery swap record as a whole to maintain the battery swap record is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the process of recording the supplementary information added to the battery replacement record specifically includes:

[0050] (1) When the battery swap vehicle enters the station, obtain all battery codes and corresponding battery SOC and battery location information on the battery rack as the initial battery information of the battery rack;

[0051] (2) When the battery swap vehicle enters the station, obtain the vehicle license plate number, VIN information, on-board battery code, and battery SOC information as vehicle information;

[0052] (3) When the battery swap vehicle leaves, obtain all battery codes and corresponding battery SOC and battery location information on the battery rack as the final battery information of the battery rack;

[0053] (4) Compared with the initial battery information of the battery rack, the reduced battery code in the final battery information of the battery rack is the battery code of the vehicle. In the initial battery information of the battery rack, the battery SOC and the battery position corresponding to the battery code are the battery SOC and the battery position of the vehicle;

[0054] (5) The battery position corresponding to the on-board battery code in the final battery information of the battery rack is the battery position where the battery is stored after the vehicle is replaced, and the battery SOC in the vehicle information is the SOC of the battery after the vehicle is replaced;

[0055] Among them, the methods for supplementing the above-mentioned battery replacement records include:

[0056] The vehicle entry time is used as the start time of battery replacement, and the initial battery replacement record is obtained in combination with the vehicle identity information; the battery codes in the initial battery information and the final battery information of this battery replacement are compared; the battery placed in the vehicle is determined based on the battery code missing in the final battery information compared to the initial battery information; the battery replaced by the vehicle is determined based on the obtained on-board battery code;

[0057] Based on the information of the battery replaced by the vehicle, supplementary information containing the information of the battery replaced by the vehicle is obtained and added to the initially generated battery replacement record. Based on the information of the battery placed in the vehicle and the battery SOC information corresponding to the acquired on-board battery code, supplementary information containing the information of the battery replaced by the vehicle is obtained and added to the initially generated battery replacement record, so as to supplement the entire battery replacement record.

[0058] Specifically, if the vehicle battery replacement information and vehicle battery replacement information can be obtained, the battery replacement record maintenance is performed. The process example of battery replacement record maintenance is as follows:

[0059] (i) Check whether there is any record of battery swapping of this battery swapping vehicle during the period when the battery swapping vehicle enters the station or leaves the station based on the information of the battery swapping vehicle such as the vehicle license plate number;

[0060] (ii) If there is a battery replacement record and it shows that the battery replacement is successful (i.e. the battery replacement record exists and a battery replacement success mark has been generated), it means that a complete battery replacement record has been generated and no maintenance is required;

[0061] (iii) If there is a battery swap record but it does not indicate a successful battery swap (i.e., the battery swap record exists but no successful battery swap mark is generated), it means that the generated battery swap record is incomplete. The battery swap record is completed based on the battery replacement information and battery replacement information obtained for the vehicle. The battery swap completion time is the time when the vehicle leaves.

[0062] If there is no battery replacement record, that is, the battery replacement record does not exist, it means that when the battery replacement record of the battery replacement vehicle should have been initially generated, it was not generated. At this time, according to the obtained vehicle battery replacement information, vehicle battery replacement information and vehicle information, the entire battery replacement record is supplemented, where the battery replacement start time is the battery replacement vehicle entry time, and the battery replacement end time is the vehicle departure time.

[0063] In this embodiment, if the communication connection established with the vehicle control terminal fails or the communication connection established with the communicative device associated with the battery compartment of each battery in the battery swap station fails, the initially generated battery swap record information and supplementary information cannot be obtained, then the battery swap record information is manually entered.

[0064] If the manually entered battery replacement record contains supplementary information including information about the battery removed from the vehicle and information about the battery added to the vehicle, a battery replacement success mark is added to the manually entered battery replacement record;

[0065] If the battery replacement record corresponding to the identity information of the vehicle whose battery has been replaced exists but the battery replacement success mark does not exist, the supplementary information will be recorded; if the battery replacement record does not exist, the entire battery replacement record will be recorded; otherwise, no supplement will be made.

[0066] When processing battery replacement records for abnormal battery replacement maintenance, if the vehicle battery replacement information and vehicle battery replacement information cannot be obtained due to equipment communication or other reasons or the monitoring system fails, and supplementary information cannot be added to the initially generated battery replacement record in real time; then if the monitoring system is normal, the battery replacement record shall be manually entered.

[0067] Manually entered battery swap record information includes the battery swap vehicle license plate number, battery swap vehicle vin, battery swap start time, battery swap end time, vehicle battery code, vehicle battery SOC, vehicle battery storage location, vehicle battery code, vehicle battery SOC, and vehicle battery retrieval location. The system verifies the manually entered battery swap records, and the maintenance process is similar to the battery swap record maintenance process when the battery swap service is abnormal. Examples of the process for manually entering and re-entering battery swap records are as follows: Figure 3 shown.

[0068] (1) Check whether there is any battery swap record for this battery swap vehicle between the battery swap start time and the battery swap end time based on the battery swap vehicle information such as the battery swap vehicle VIN or license plate number;

[0069] (2) If the battery swap record exists and indicates that the battery swap was successful (i.e., the battery swap record exists and a battery swap success mark has been generated), the mark indicates that the complete battery swap record has been generated and no manual entry is required;

[0070] (3) If the battery swap record exists but does not indicate a successful battery swap (i.e., the battery swap record exists but no successful battery swap mark is generated), it means that the generated battery swap record is incomplete. In this case, the battery swap information of this battery swap record is supplemented by manual entry, and a successful battery swap mark is added to the battery swap record after the manual entry is completed;

[0071] (4) If the battery replacement record does not exist, the battery replacement record shall be completed one by one manually based on the battery replacement vehicle license plate number, battery replacement vehicle vin, battery replacement start time, battery replacement end time, vehicle battery replacement code, vehicle battery replacement SOC, vehicle battery replacement storage location and vehicle battery replacement code, vehicle battery replacement SOC and vehicle battery replacement storage location involved in this battery replacement record.
