[0019] Inside the battery swap warehouse 2, an AVG forklift driving channel 25 is provided between two rows of battery pack placement racks 26 arranged side by side, so as to facilitate the AVG forklift to transfer the battery pack.

[0020] A mounting plate 5 is fixedly installed on the left side of the inner surface of the carport 3, and mounting blocks 6 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the bottom of the front of the mounting plate 5. A hinged rod 7 is hinged on the inner side of the mounting block 6, and a baffle 8 is fixedly installed on the top of the hinged rod 7. A fixed block 9 is fixedly installed on the front of the mounting plate 5, and a motor 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed block 9. The other end of the output shaft of the motor 10 is fixedly connected with a threaded rod 11, and the bottom end of the threaded rod 11 passes through the fixed block 9 and is movably sleeved with the inner surface of the fixed block 9. A movable plate 12 is threadedly sleeved on the outer surface of the threaded rod 11, and the back of the movable plate 12 is movably connected to the front of the mounting plate 5. Push-pull rods 13 are hinged on both ends of the movable plate 12, and the internal movable sleeve at the bottom of the push-pull rod 13 is There is a round rod 14, and C-shaped blocks 15 are movably sleeved on the left and right sides of the outer surface of the round rod 14, and the inner surface of the C-shaped block 15 is movably sleeved with the outer surface of the hinged rod 7; when the truck enters the interior of the carport 3, it will be blocked by the gate 4 and stop. At this time, the start of the motor 10 will cause the threaded rod 11 to rotate, so that the threaded rod 11 can drive the movable plate 12 to move downward. At this time, the movable plate 12 drives the push-pull rod 13 to move. At this time, the push-pull rod 13 can push the round rod 14 to rotate downward, so that the round rod 14 drives the hinged rod 7 to move downward through the C-shaped block 15, so that the hinged rod 7 gradually rotates to a horizontal state, which can block the door of the truck and avoid safety hazards when the driver gets off the vehicle.

[0021] Among them, a single-chip computer 16 and a controller 17 are fixedly installed on the left side of the top front of the mounting plate 5, and an infrared sensor 18 is fixedly installed on the bottom front of the mounting plate 5; when the infrared sensor 18 detects that a truck is entering, it will transmit a signal to the single-chip computer 16, and after processing the signal, the single-chip computer 16 will transmit a signal to the controller 17, so that the controller 17 can control the start of the motor 10. When the truck enters, the operator can monitor the operation of the system through the operation control console in the operation control area in the battery swap compartment 2 to ensure that the battery swap is carried out normally.

[0022] Among them, the outer surface of the hinged rod 7 is fixedly sleeved with a limit frame 19, and the inner surface of the limit frame 19 is movably connected to the outer surface of the C-shaped block 15; by setting the limit frame 19, the C-shaped block 15 can be limited to prevent the C-shaped block 15 from moving on the outer surface of the hinged rod 7.

[0023] Among them, the left and right sides of the outer surface of the round rod 14 are fixedly sleeved with a fixing ring 20, and the left and right ends of the round rod 14 are fixedly installed with a blocking piece 23; by setting the blocking piece 23, the blocking piece 23 can play a blocking role to prevent the C-shaped block 15 from moving along the outer surface of the round rod 14 and detaching from the outer surface of the round rod 14.

[0024] Among them, a spring 21 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing ring 20, and the outer surface of the spring 21 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the C-shaped block 15; by setting the spring 21, the spring 21 can drive the C-shaped block 15 to reset under the action of elastic force recovery after being compressed.

[0025] Among them, a pull plate 22 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the C-shaped block 15, and there are two pull plates 22, and the two pull plates 22 have the same size; the driver can push the two pull plates 22 to move towards each other, thereby driving the two C-shaped blocks 15 to move towards each other, so that the C-shaped block 15 is separated from the outer surface of the hinge rod 7, and the hinge rod 7 can rotate downward under the action of gravity.

[0026] There are two C-shaped blocks 15, and the two C-shaped blocks 15 are symmetrical about the threaded rod 11. By setting the C-shaped blocks 15, the C-shaped blocks 15 can connect the round rod 14 and the hinged rod 7 together, so that when the round rod 14 moves, the hinged rod 7 can be driven to move.

[0027] The working principle and use process of the present invention: When the truck enters the interior of the carport 3, it will be blocked by the gate 4. At this time, the infrared sensor 18 detects the truck entering and will transmit a signal to the single-chip microcomputer 16, so that the single-chip microcomputer 16 processes the signal and then sends it to the controller 17, so that the controller 17 controls the motor 10 to start. At this time, the threaded rod 11 rotates, and the movable plate 12 moves downward on the outer surface of the threaded rod 11, so that the push-pull rod 13 drives the round rod 14 to move forward. At this time, the articulated rod 7 can be rotated downward through the round rod 14, and finally the baffle 8 can be blocked in front of the truck door. At this time, the truck door cannot be opened, avoiding the driver getting on and off the vehicle at will and causing safety hazards. When the door needs to be opened in an emergency, the two pull plates 22 can be pushed to move toward each other, thereby driving the two C-shaped blocks 15 to move toward each other on the outer surface of the round rod 14, so that the C-shaped blocks 15 are disengaged from the hinged rod 7, so as to release the connection between the round rod 14 and the hinged rod 7, so that the hinged rod 7 can rotate downward under the action of gravity, thereby releasing the restriction on the door and allowing the door to be opened.

[0028] When the vehicle is changing batteries, after the vehicle stops in the carport 3, the AGV forklift drives along the AGV forklift driving channel 25 to the truck position, and the AGV forklift carries the low-charged battery to the battery pack placement rack 26, and then the charging gun 27 is activated to charge the low-charged battery; the AGV forklift carries the fully charged battery along the AGV forklift driving channel 25 and loads the fully charged battery onto the truck, and the AGV forklift returns. The gate 4 opens, and the vehicle leaves along the driving channel 24.

[0029] When the vehicle is charged directly, the vehicle drives into the parking space in front or behind the battery swap compartment 2, and the driver or station staff operates the charging gun 27 to charge the vehicle directly. After it is fully charged, the vehicle can leave.
