[0054] The following is a description of exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, including various details of the embodiments of the present disclosure to facilitate understanding, which should be considered as merely exemplary. Therefore, it should be recognized by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes and modifications may be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present disclosure. Similarly, for the sake of clarity and conciseness, descriptions of well-known functions and structures are omitted in the following description.

[0055] The following describes the vehicle battery replacement method and device, electronic device and storage medium of the embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0056] Figure 1 A flowchart of a vehicle battery replacement method provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, the method is applied to a battery replacement system of a vehicle, and the method comprises the following steps:

[0058] Step 101, receiving battery replacement request information of a vehicle to be replaced; the battery replacement request information includes target position information of the vehicle to be replaced in an open-pit coal mine.

[0059] The vehicle to be replaced by a battery refers to a new energy heavy truck working in an open-pit coal mine, in which the battery of the new energy heavy truck is located in the middle position where the rear window of the cab is connected to the trailer (or the rear upper body part). The battery replacement request information contains the basic information of the vehicle to be replaced by a battery and the target location information of the vehicle to be replaced by a battery in the open-pit coal mine. The mobile battery replacement equipment library refers to a centrally managed database that stores information on all available mobile battery replacement equipment, including the current location information and status of each mobile battery replacement equipment library.

[0060] By receiving the location information of the vehicle to be replaced, the vehicle's battery replacement system can quickly locate and dispatch suitable mobile battery replacement equipment, thereby reducing the waiting time of the vehicle to be replaced and improving the overall battery replacement efficiency.

[0061] Step 102: Search the mobile battery exchange device library for the target mobile battery exchange device that is closest to the target location information.

[0062] The location information of all mobile battery swapping devices in the open-pit coal mine is obtained from the mobile battery swapping device database, and the distance between the location of each mobile battery swapping device and the target location of the vehicle to be swapped is calculated. After the distance is calculated, all devices are sorted by distance, and the target mobile battery swapping device closest to the vehicle to be swapped is selected. Among them, mobile battery swapping equipment refers to mobile equipment that integrates battery storage, replacement and charging functions. The mobile battery swapping equipment is equipped with a battery compartment for storing fully charged battery packs, and is equipped with a professional battery swapping robot arm or lifting platform for quickly replacing the battery of the vehicle to be swapped.

[0063] By selecting the nearest mobile battery swapping equipment, the time required for the mobile battery swapping equipment to reach the vehicle to be swapped can be reduced, thereby speeding up the battery swapping process and improving the overall battery swapping efficiency.

[0064] Step 103, sending the target location information and the first control instruction for replacing the battery for the vehicle to be replaced to the target mobile device, so that the mobile battery replacement device can replace the battery for the vehicle to be replaced based on the first control instruction and the target location information.

[0065] The target mobile battery swapping device plans a route using the built-in navigation system based on the received target location information, and automatically drives to the target location of the vehicle to be replaced. After arriving at the location of the vehicle to be replaced, the target mobile battery swapping device will use a robotic arm or other automated tools to dock with the vehicle to be replaced. Including connecting to the battery compartment of the vehicle to be replaced, preparing for battery replacement, and the target mobile battery swapping device performs the battery replacement operation according to the control instructions. Including removing the old battery from the vehicle to be replaced and installing the fully charged new battery on the vehicle to be replaced.

[0066] Sending the first control instruction can start the battery swap program of the battery swap equipment, so that it can start the battery swap operation immediately after arriving at the vehicle location, reducing waiting time and improving battery swap efficiency.

[0067] The vehicle battery replacement method provided by the present disclosure receives battery replacement request information of a vehicle to be replaced; the battery replacement request information includes the target position information of the vehicle to be replaced in an open-pit coal mine; searches for a target mobile battery replacement device that is closest to the target position information in a mobile battery replacement device library; sends the target position information and a first control instruction for replacing the battery of the vehicle to be replaced to the target mobile device, so that the mobile battery replacement device replaces the battery of the vehicle to be replaced based on the first control instruction and the target position information. Compared with the related art, the embodiment of the present disclosure searches for the target mobile battery replacement device that is closest to the target position information of the vehicle to be replaced, sends the target position information and the first control instruction for replacing the battery of the vehicle to be replaced to the target mobile device, and the target mobile device automatically goes to the target position information to replace the battery of the vehicle to be replaced, without the need for the vehicle to be replaced to travel back and forth to the battery replacement station for battery replacement, thus saving the time for the vehicle to be replaced to travel back and forth to the battery replacement station and improving the battery replacement efficiency of the vehicle.

[0068] As a refinement of step 102, when executing the search for the target mobile battery exchange device closest to the target location information in the mobile battery exchange device library, it can be implemented by but not limited to the following methods: obtaining the location information of all mobile battery exchange devices in the mobile battery exchange device library; calculating the distance between the location information of all mobile battery exchange devices and the target location information respectively, to obtain the distance between all mobile battery exchange devices and the vehicle to be exchanged; and determining the mobile battery exchange device with the smallest value among the distances as the target mobile battery exchange device.

[0069] Exemplarily, the mobile battery swap device is equipped with a positioning system that can update its location information in real time and transmit the location information to the mobile battery swap device library. The vehicle's battery swap system can retrieve the location information of all mobile battery swap devices in the mobile battery swap device library. By using the Euclidean distance formula to calculate the distance between the location information of all mobile battery swap devices and the target location information, the distance between all mobile battery swap devices and the vehicle to be swapped is obtained. However, it should be clear that this statement is not intended to limit the distance between the mobile battery swap device and the vehicle to be swapped to be calculated only by the Euclidean distance formula, and it can also be calculated by other methods.

[0070] Choosing the nearest device for battery replacement can reduce the driving distance and energy consumption of mobile battery replacement equipment and optimize the overall resource utilization efficiency of the battery replacement service.

[0071] In practical applications, after sending the target location information and the first control instruction for battery replacement for the vehicle to be replaced to the target mobile device, it is necessary to ensure that the target mobile device has sufficient power, which can be achieved by but not limited to the following methods: when it is determined that the target mobile battery replacement device has completed the battery replacement for the vehicle to be replaced, the total remaining power of the target mobile battery replacement device is monitored; if the total remaining power is less than the preset first threshold, a second control instruction to go to the charging station for charging is sent to the target mobile battery replacement device, so that the target mobile battery replacement device can charge the charging station based on the second control instruction. The total remaining power refers to the sum of the remaining power of all available battery cells or battery packs in the target mobile battery replacement device. The target mobile battery replacement device carries multiple battery cells or battery packs for providing replacement batteries for the vehicle to be replaced. The total remaining power of the battery cells or battery packs represents the total power that the target mobile battery replacement device can provide. Among them, the preset first threshold value can be an arbitrary value, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the value of the preset first threshold value.

[0072] By monitoring the total remaining power of the target mobile battery swap device and sending charging instructions in a timely manner when the power is low, it can be ensured that the device has sufficient power to continue to perform subsequent battery swap tasks and avoid the device stopping working due to power exhaustion.

[0073] In practical applications, before receiving the battery replacement request information of the vehicle to be replaced, it is necessary to ensure that the battery in the mobile battery replacement device is in a safe state, which can be achieved by but not limited to the following methods: obtaining the battery health status value of all mobile battery replacement devices in the mobile battery replacement device library; if it is determined that there is a target battery health status value less than the preset second threshold value in the battery health status value, a third control instruction to go to the charging station for battery inspection is sent to the mobile battery replacement device corresponding to the target battery health status value, so that the mobile battery replacement device corresponding to the target battery health status value performs a battery inspection at the charging station based on the third control instruction. The battery health status value refers to a comprehensive indicator of the remaining capacity, number of cycles, internal resistance, charging efficiency and temperature characteristics of the battery pack or battery group in the mobile battery replacement device. By presetting corresponding weights for the remaining capacity, number of cycles, internal resistance, charging efficiency and temperature characteristics, the remaining capacity, number of cycles, internal resistance, charging efficiency and temperature characteristics are multiplied by the corresponding weights to obtain the product result, and all product results are added to obtain the battery health status value. Through timely inspection and maintenance, the service life of the battery can be extended, the replacement frequency can be reduced, and thus the operating cost can be reduced.

[0074] In actual applications, before searching for the target mobile battery exchange device closest to the target location information in the mobile battery exchange device library, the real-time location of the mobile battery exchange device needs to be updated in the mobile device library, which can be achieved by but not limited to the following methods: real-time monitoring of the location information of all the mobile battery exchange devices; when it is determined that there is location change information in the location information of all the mobile battery exchange devices, the location change information is updated in the preset mobile device library. Real-time location information helps to optimize the resource allocation of mobile battery exchange equipment, reduce unnecessary movement and waiting time, and thus improve overall operational efficiency.

[0075] In one possible implementation of the disclosed embodiment, the mobile battery swapping equipment uses the back-type power battery system of the vehicle to be swapped, and adopts optimized layout, decentralized control technology and efficient thermal management technology to improve the volume energy density, life and stability of the battery system. Self-developed battery packs adapted to different models and swap stations have been launched. By adjusting the spatial layout of the battery box, the internal space utilization rate is explored. By applying the independently developed energy storage decentralized control technology, virtual parallel connection between battery clusters is achieved to ensure that the battery string is always in the best operating state. The use of efficient thermal management technology ensures a more balanced flow distribution of the coolant, improves the consistency of heat dissipation of the battery cells, and improves the service life and stability of the battery system. The bidirectionally compatible battery system integrated standardized design tool realizes the compatibility matching of four self-developed battery packs with three models and two swap stations. The mobile battery swapping equipment uses special-shaped liquid cooling units, flat high-voltage boxes, folding locking mechanisms, variable angle connectors and retractable battery swap positioning systems to optimize the internal space of the power battery system and ensure the safety of the battery system. By utilizing the power battery system components that integrate the above technologies and compressing the electrical wiring harness inside the battery to reduce the internal invalid space, the volume energy density of the battery swap system can be greatly improved. In order to better understand the battery pack and the battery swap bracket, Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2A display diagram of a battery pack and a battery exchange bracket provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure improves the safety of the power battery system by increasing the fixed torque. It can withstand 5g acceleration in three directions, ensure the structural strength and toughness of the battery system, and increase the battery life. The mobile battery exchange equipment uses distributed control technology and efficient thermal management technology to achieve stable and controllable charging and uniform heat dissipation between battery clusters, so that the power battery system has higher safety, reliability and charging and discharging efficiency. The distributed control technology independently developed for the energy storage system is transplanted to the power battery system, which avoids the parallel mismatch problem of battery clusters at the physical level, solves the safety risks caused by the inter-cluster circulation in the power battery system, and each battery cluster can work in the optimal input / output power state. Utilizing efficient thermal management technology, the flow field of the liquid cooling plate and the design of the liquid cooling pipeline are optimized, which greatly reduces the laminar drag effect of the coolant when the channel turns, making the spatial distribution of the coolant flow more uniform, the heat dissipation consistency of the battery cells better, and the temperature difference of the battery cells less than 3°C.

[0076] The mobile battery swapping equipment uses a bidirectionally compatible battery system integration standardized design tool to define the standard communication protocol for the battery swapping vehicle to be swapped, and the mechanical structure matching interface between the battery pack-vehicle and the battery pack-battery swapping station. In terms of communication, the battery swapping controller is used as the "handle" to formulate the data communication protocol between the battery management system, the vehicle control unit, the intelligent terminal of the Internet of Vehicles, and the intelligent scheduling and data management cloud platform in the vehicle communication ring network to control the vehicle-battery pack communication interface; the communication protocol between the station control system of the battery swapping station, the battery pack battery swapping locking system, and the automatic charging system is formulated to control the battery pack / charging and swapping station communication interface; the business and technical unbundling between the battery cell, battery factory, vehicle factory, and charging and swapping OEM factory is realized. In terms of structure, the installation position and envelope size of the battery swapping connector, positioning and locking mechanism are unified to realize the non-differential loading of different models of battery packs on different models; a universal battery system battery swapping top is designed, which can adapt to different grabbing methods of different battery swapping accessory manufacturers to achieve compatibility of one pack with multiple stations. Through the above standardized definitions, the compatibility adaptation between four self-developed battery packs and three models and two battery swapping stations has been completed.

[0077] The disclosed embodiment of the battery swap-energy storage station and centralized charging-mobile battery swap equipment operation mode improves the safety and efficiency of battery swap through flexible hoisting battery swap technology, realizes participation in microgrid applications and battery swap station operations, and adopts integrated pantograph automatic charging technology to realize centralized charging and mobile battery swap in complex environments such as no external power supply and infrastructure land. In terms of battery swap reliability, the "wire rope + spring shock absorption" flexible hoisting battery swap technology for mining engineering equipment was pioneered, and the battery pack was clamped, lifted, placed, etc., and the spring shock-absorbing plug interface was used to improve the safety of the battery pack. The first set of technical equipment for the flexible hoisting battery swap station for mining engineering equipment in China was developed. In terms of power utilization, the battery swap station is equipped with an energy storage converter to replace the traditional charger to charge the battery, so that the battery has the ability to feed power, and the battery swap station participates in the application and operation of the microgrid. From the perspective of environmental adaptability, by combining the battery swap battery pack technology, the movable function and the integrated pantograph charging technology, it is possible to replace the battery for the vehicle to be replaced without an external power supply or infrastructure land.

[0078] In summary, the embodiments of the present disclosure can achieve the following effects:

[0079] The disclosed embodiment searches for the target mobile battery-swapping device that is closest to the target location information of the vehicle to be battery-swapped, sends the target location information and a first control instruction for battery swapping for the vehicle to be battery-swapped to the target mobile device, and the target mobile device automatically goes to the target location information to swap the battery for the vehicle to be battery-swapped. The vehicle to be battery-swapped does not need to travel back and forth to the battery swap station for battery swapping, thereby saving the time for the vehicle to be battery-swapped to travel back and forth to the battery swap station and improving the battery swapping efficiency of the vehicle.
