Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery swapping equipment, and in particular to an automatic operating robot for a mobile battery swapping station. Background Art

[0002] New energy vehicles refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as a power source (or use conventional vehicle fuels and adopt new vehicle-mounted power devices). Although the use of new energy vehicles can greatly reduce the cost of using commercial vehicles, the problem of charging new energy vehicles will follow. In remote areas such as mining areas and forest areas, it is a large project to build a separate battery swap station for construction vehicles. Especially in mining areas, based on regulations, standards and other requirements, the approval of the infrastructure and power grid construction of battery swap stations is difficult and costly. With the mining of the mining area, the actual construction location will gradually move away from the original battery swap station location. The construction vehicles need to move with the progress of the project, and the journey back to the original battery swap station for battery swap is gradually lengthened, resulting in energy waste during the battery swap, and the construction of too many battery swap stations will also cause damage to the environment.

[0003] Mobile charging and swapping stations can reduce the energy waste caused by long-distance charging of vehicles. This type of mobile charging station needs to be parked on a platform, which is used to provide a flat load-bearing surface and to fix the battery swapping equipment. The mobile battery swapping station set up outdoors includes a platform and a battery swapping robot set on the platform. The operating vehicles and battery transfer vehicles that need to be replaced are parked on both sides of the platform. The battery swapping robot moves along the ground track on the platform. After the battery swapping robot is controlled to move to the approximate position, the lifting device on the battery swapping robot is manually dragged to align with the battery and lift the low-power battery. The battery swapping robot then moves to an empty station on the battery transfer vehicle, unloads the low-power battery to the battery transfer vehicle, and finally works in reverse to move the fully charged battery on the battery transfer vehicle to the operating vehicle.

[0004] During the process of hoisting the battery pack, the above-mentioned battery swap robot will cause the battery pack to tilt and shake to a certain extent in the air due to adverse factors such as external wind force and unbalanced gravity of the battery pack, making it difficult to accurately place the battery pack in the installation position. It takes a long time to adjust the position and posture of the battery pack, and even requires manual guidance and assistance to complete, which ultimately results in a long battery swap operation time and low operation efficiency. In addition, after hoisting the battery pack, the battery swap robot needs to carry the battery pack and move it a certain distance. During this process, the battery pack is more likely to tilt and shake, which poses certain safety hazards. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an automatic operation robot for a mobile battery replacement station to prevent the battery pack from shaking during operation, facilitate the precise positioning of the battery pack, shorten the time of the battery replacement operation, and improve the efficiency of the battery replacement operation.

[0016] Beneficial effects of the present invention: The mobile battery swap station automatic operation robot of the present invention grabs the battery pack through the cargo platform moving in the vertical direction. When the cargo platform moves up and down and is stationary, the cargo platform is limited in the first horizontal direction by the support roller, and the cargo platform is limited in the second horizontal direction by the limiting roller, so as to achieve the limitation of the cargo platform in the horizontal direction, that is, the cargo platform cannot move and tilt during the process of lifting and lowering and translating with the robot frame, which can prevent the cargo platform from tilting and shaking in the air, improve the convenience of battery swapping, improve the efficiency of battery swapping operations, and reduce safety hazards; In addition, when the cargo platform moves to the top of the robot frame, the cargo platform can be hooked by a limit hook, so as to prevent the cargo platform at a high place and carrying the battery pack from falling and shaking during the movement of the entire robot frame, thereby improving the safety of the mobile battery swap station operation and improving the ability of the mobile battery swap station to adapt to the operating environment.

[0017] In summary, the present invention limits the cargo platform through various means, so that the cargo platform is not prone to tilting and shaking during its own movement and following the movement of other components, ultimately improving the convenience, timeliness and safety of battery replacement operations.

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0024] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 6 The mobile battery swap station automatic operation robot provided by the present invention is described.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mobile battery swap station automatic operation robot includes a robot frame 1, a cargo platform 2 and a telescopic arm 5. The robot frame 1 can move along a first horizontal direction relative to the ground; the cargo platform 2 is arranged on the robot frame 1, and a lifter 3 is arranged on the robot frame 1, and the lifter 3 can lift the cargo platform 2 to the top of the robot frame 1; the telescopic arm 5 is arranged on the cargo platform 2, and the telescopic arm 5 can grab the battery pack, and the telescopic arm 5 can be extended and retracted along a second horizontal direction, and the second horizontal direction is perpendicular to the first horizontal direction.

[0026] Reference Figure 3 The robot frame 1 includes columns 11 and connecting beams 12. The columns 11 are arranged vertically. At least two groups of columns 11 are arranged along the first horizontal direction. In this embodiment, two groups are taken as an example. Each group of columns 11 is provided with at least two columns. In this embodiment, two columns are taken as an example. The bottom of each column 11 is rotatably provided with rollers 111. Two connecting beams 12 are connected between two adjacent columns 11. The connecting beams 12 are arranged horizontally, and the two connecting beams 12 are respectively located at the two ends of the columns 11. The columns 11 and the connecting beams 12 are connected to form a robot frame 1 with a stable structure. A covering shell 13 is also provided on the outside of the robot frame 1 to enhance the aesthetics of the robot frame 1 and protect the robot frame 1.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the robot frame 1 is arranged on a movable carrier and can slide on the carrier along a first horizontal direction. For example, the robot frame 1 in this embodiment is arranged on a transport vehicle 100, and a walking track 101 is connected to the mobile transport vehicle 100 along a first horizontal direction. The number of the walking track 101 is consistent with the number of each group of columns 11. In this embodiment, two are taken as an example. The roller 111 is rotatably arranged on the walking track 101. Figure 1In this embodiment, the roller 111 is driven to rotate by a motor, and two rollers 111 perpendicular to the walking track 101 are synchronously driven by a single dual-axis motor, thereby realizing the movement of the robot frame 1. In some other embodiments, a motor may be provided for each roller 111.

[0028] In addition, each roller 111 is connected to a safety cover 1112 on the outside, which isolates the roller 111 from the outside world and prevents dust from entering between the roller 111 and the walking track 101 to aggravate the wear of the walking track 101. In some other embodiments, the robot frame 1 can also be set on the ground or on a support table, and the specific location is not limited. A monitoring room 102 is also provided in the transport vehicle 100 to monitor the working status of the mobile automatic operation robot of the battery swap station.

[0029] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 Specifically, the cargo platform 2 includes a support frame 21 and a mounting platform 22. The support frame 21 is vertically arranged. Two support frames 21 are arranged in parallel along the first horizontal direction between two groups of columns 11. The support frame 21 is slidably matched with the columns 11. The mounting platform 22 is connected between the two support frames 21, and the mounting platform 22 is arranged near the top of the support frame 21. The telescopic arm 5 is connected to the mounting platform 22. The telescopic arm 5 is any mechanical arm with a clamping claw and can be retracted in the prior art, and the specific form is not limited. The lifter 3 is any lifter 3 in the prior art, which can be a chain lifter or a belt lifter, etc. This embodiment takes a chain lifter as an example.

[0030] Based on the above, when the robot frame 1 moves, it can drive the telescopic arm 5 to move along the first horizontal direction, and the telescopic arm 5 itself can be extended and retracted along the second horizontal direction. The clamped battery pack can move in the horizontal plane, and the lifter 3 can lift the cargo platform 2, so that the three-axis movement of the battery pack can be realized, and the battery pack can be replaced. During the replacement process, the telescopic arm 5 continuously positions the battery pack, making it difficult for the battery pack to tilt and shake, thereby facilitating the precise positioning of the battery pack, thereby shortening the time of the battery replacement operation and improving the efficiency of the battery replacement operation.

[0031] Preferably, in the present embodiment, at least two groups of support rollers 211 are rotatably provided on the sides of the two support frames 21 facing away from each other. The present embodiment takes two groups as an example, and the axes of the support rollers 211 are parallel to the second horizontal direction. The two groups of support rollers 211 are respectively abutted against two columns 11 in the same group of columns 11, and can rotate. The sliding friction between the cargo platform 2 and the robot frame 1 is converted into rolling friction through the support rollers 211, thereby reducing the lifting resistance of the cargo platform 2 and making the lifting and lowering of the cargo platform 2 smoother.

[0032] In addition, the support rollers 211 also limit the cargo platform 2 in the first horizontal direction, so that the cargo platform 2 as a whole cannot move along the first horizontal direction. In addition, each group of support rollers 211 is provided with at least two corresponding to each column 11. This embodiment takes two as an example, and the two support rollers 211 are distributed in the vertical direction, which can prevent the cargo platform 2 from tilting, so that the cargo platform 2 is always in a vertical state, and further prevent the battery pack from tilting and shaking.

[0033] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 , further preferably, at least two groups of limiting rollers 212 are rotatably arranged on the support frame 21 corresponding to each group of columns 11. In this embodiment, two groups are taken as an example. The axis of the limiting roller 212 is parallel to the first horizontal direction. The two groups of limiting rollers 212 are respectively abutted against the side of two adjacent columns 11 in a group of columns 11, which are close to each other or far away from each other, and the limiting rollers 212 can rotate. Specifically in this embodiment, the two groups of limiting rollers 212 are respectively located on the side of the two columns 11 far away from each other. The limiting rollers 212 are used to further limit the cargo platform 2 in the second horizontal direction, so that the cargo platform 2 as a whole cannot move along the second horizontal direction, making the cargo platform 2 more stable and accurate during the lifting process, and further preventing the battery pack from tilting and shaking, thereby helping to shorten the time of the battery replacement operation and improve the efficiency of the battery replacement operation. Each group of limiting rollers 212 is provided with multiple in the vertical direction. In this embodiment, two are taken as an example, which can further prevent the cargo platform 2 from tilting.

[0034] It should be noted that, in some other optional embodiments, guide members such as linear guide rails may be provided between the cargo platform 2 and the robot frame 1 for guiding and limiting.

[0035] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 A limit assembly 4 is provided on the top of the robot frame 1. The limit assembly 4 includes a limit seat 41, a rotating shaft 43 and a limit hook 42. The limit seat 41 is connected to the connecting beam 12. The rotating shaft 43 is rotatably connected to the limit seat 41. The axis of the rotating shaft 43 is parallel to the first horizontal direction. The limit hook 42 is connected to the rotating shaft 43. There are multiple groups of limit hooks 42 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 43. This embodiment takes two groups as an example, and each group of limit hooks 42 is provided with two.

[0036] In order to facilitate the rotation of the rotating shaft 43, in this embodiment, a handle 431 is connected to the end of the rotating shaft 43, and the length direction of the handle 431 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 43, so that the length of the force arm is extended by the handle 431, making the rotation of the rotating shaft 43 more labor-saving. In some other embodiments, the rotating shaft 43 can also be directly driven to rotate by a driving component such as a motor or a rotating cylinder.

[0037] It is worth noting that a positioning seat 121 is also connected to the top of the connecting beam 12. The positioning seat 121 and the limiting seat 41 are distributed along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 43, and the distance between the two is less than the length of the handle 431. The end of the handle 431 away from the rotating shaft 43 is connected to a locking member, which is a bolt, a screw or a positioning pin, etc. The locking member in this embodiment is a bolt. When the rotating shaft 43 rotates to the state where the limiting hook 42 is not activated, that is, the hook portion of the limiting hook 42 is close to the highest position of the robot frame 1, at this time, the end of the handle 431 away from the rotating shaft 43 is located on one side of the positioning seat 121, and the handle 431 can be positioned on the positioning seat 121 by tightening the bolt.

[0038] Furthermore, a connecting piece for the limiting hook 42 to hook is provided on the top of the cargo platform 2. The connecting piece of this embodiment includes an ear plate 221 and a connecting shaft 222. Two groups of ear plates 221 are connected to the top of the cargo platform 2. The two groups of ear plates 221 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two groups of limiting hooks 42, and each group of ear plates 221 is provided with two; the connecting shaft 222 is connected between the two ear plates 221, and the connecting shaft 222 is arranged parallel to the rotating shaft 43.

[0039] Based on the above, when the cargo platform 2 is close to the top of the robot frame 1, the positioning of the handle 431 is released, and then the rotation of the rotating shaft 43 drives the limit hook 42 to hook the connecting shaft 222, thereby realizing the limitation of the cargo platform 2. After the telescopic arm 5 picks up the battery pack, the robot frame 1 can prevent the cargo platform 2 at a high place and carrying the battery pack from falling and shaking during the movement, thereby improving the safety of the mobile battery swap station operation and the wind resistance of the mobile battery swap station, that is, improving the ability of the mobile battery swap station to adapt to the working environment. In addition, when each set of limit hooks 42 hooks the connecting shaft 222, the two limit hooks 42 are located between the two ear plates 221 in a set of ear plates 221, so as to further limit the cargo platform 2 in the first horizontal direction through the cooperation of the limit hooks 42 and the ear plates 221, and further improve the stability of the cargo platform 2.

[0040] Reference Figure 3 In addition, a counterweight module 14 is provided on the robot frame 1. The counterweight module 14 is used to balance the gravity of the cargo platform 2. The counterweight module 14 in this embodiment is any counterweight module 14 compatible with the chain hoist in the prior art. The counterweight module 14 is connected to the chain hoist, so that the cargo platform 2 can be raised more labor-saving and energy consumption can be reduced. When the telescopic arm 5 at a high position grabs the battery pack, the weight of the battery pack is balanced by the counterweight module 14, so that the telescopic arm 5 can work more stably.

[0041] Furthermore, both the robot frame 1 and the cargo platform 2 are provided with a rangefinder (not shown in the figure). The rangefinder in this embodiment can adopt any rangefinder in the prior art. Its specific structure is the prior art and will not be repeated here. The rangefinder can measure the distance traveled by the robot frame 1 and the distance raised and lowered by the cargo platform 2, so as to more accurately locate the battery pack. The telescopic arm 5 is also connected to an ultrasonic detector, which detects obstacles in front of the telescopic arm 5 to prevent the telescopic arm 5 from colliding with obstacles during operation. In addition, the robot frame 1 is also connected to an electronic control module, and the above-mentioned sensors and actuators are electrically connected to the electronic control module, which receives the sensor signals and controls the actuators to move precisely, thereby improving the positioning accuracy of the battery pack.

[0042] Furthermore, since the target vehicle to be replaced cannot be accurately positioned when parked, a large error will occur between the position of the target vehicle and the robot frame 1. In this embodiment, a plurality of infrared ranging devices are installed on the robot frame 1, and the plurality of infrared ranging devices are electrically connected to the electronic control module. An infrared measurement light curtain is formed by the plurality of infrared ranging devices. When the target vehicle is parked, the position in the light curtain further generates the target vehicle position information, which not only enables the target vehicle to be parked accurately, but also facilitates the acquisition of the target vehicle's precise position information, so as to facilitate subsequent position compensation. It should be noted that the infrared ranging device can also be installed on the transport vehicle 100.

[0043] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, various obvious changes, readjustments and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
