DETAILED DESCRIPTION

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

[0032] In one embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, a battery tray for facilitating battery replacement comprises a bottom plate 1, a tray body 2 is fixedly mounted on the top of the bottom plate 1, a top plate 3 is fixedly mounted on the top of the tray body 2, a first air net 4 is equidistantly provided on the top of the top plate 3, slide grooves 5 are provided on both sides of the interior of the tray body 2, a battery mounting plate 6 is slidably mounted on the interior of the tray body 2 through the slide grooves 5, a handle 7 is fixedly mounted on one side of the exterior of the battery mounting plate 6, and mounting mechanisms 8 are provided on both sides of the exterior of the tray body 2.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first air net 4 is provided to dissipate heat at the top plate 3. Heat is generated during the battery charging and discharging process, and the heat is discharged through the first air net 4. The slide groove 5 is provided to allow the battery mounting disk 6 to slide inside the tray body 2, so that the battery can be replaced after the battery mounting disk 6 is taken out. With the cooperation of the installation mechanism 8, the battery mounting disk 6 is fixed after sliding into the tray body 2. The installation mechanism 8 will not interfere when the battery mounting disk 6 slides out of the tray body 2, thereby improving practicality.

[0034] In one embodiment, Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the mounting mechanism 8 includes a fixing plate 801, which is symmetrically fixedly mounted on both sides of the outside of the tray body 2, and a gear 802 is rotatably mounted between every two fixing plates 801, and a mounting member 803 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the gear 802. A rack 805 is meshed and connected to the outside of the gear 802, and the rack 805 and the battery mounting disk 6 are fixedly mounted. When the battery mounting disk 6 slides out from the inside of the tray body 2, it drives the rack 805 to move, and the movement of the rack 805 drives the gear 802 to rotate, and the rotation of the gear 802 drives the mounting member 803 to rotate, and the mounting member 803 rotates to contact the battery mounting disk 6, so that the battery mounting disk 6 can slide out from the inside of the tray body 2. When the battery mounting disk 6 is slid into the inside of the tray body 2, the rack 805 drives the gear 802 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the mounting member 803 is reset, and finally the mounting member 803 fits the outer wall of the tray body 2 to block the battery mounting disk 6.

[0035] In one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, mounting grooves 9 are provided on both sides of the exterior of the tray body 2 corresponding to the rack 805, and the rack 805 is located inside the mounting groove 9. Through the setting of the mounting groove 9, the rack 805 can be driven to slide during the movement of the battery mounting plate 6.

[0036] In one embodiment, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a mounting hole 10 is symmetrically provided on one side of the exterior of the tray body 2, a bolt 804 passes through the exterior of the mounting piece 803, and the bolt 804 is threadedly connected to the tray body 2 through the mounting hole 10. When the mounting piece 803 is in contact with the outer wall of the tray body 2, the through hole on the exterior of the mounting piece 803 is aligned with the mounting hole 10, and the bolt 804 is used to fix the mounting piece 803 to the tray body 2, thereby fixing the battery mounting plate 6 to the tray body 2. When the battery mounting plate 6 needs to be removed, the bolt 804 is removed.

[0037] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a partition 12 is fixedly installed on the top of the battery mounting tray 6, and clamping mechanisms 13 are provided on both sides of the outside of the tray body 2. The clamping mechanism 13 can clamp the batteries installed inside the battery mounting tray 6 to avoid loosening above the battery mounting tray 6 due to different battery sizes after replacement, thereby improving the safety of battery use.

[0038] In one embodiment, Figure 2As shown, the clamping mechanism 13 includes a screw 1301, which symmetrically passes through the two sides of the outside of the tray body 2, and the screw 1301 and the tray body 2 are threadedly connected, one end of the screw 1301 is connected to a knob 1302, and the other end of the screw 1301 is rotatably installed with a clamping plate 1303. When the battery mounting tray 6 needs to be taken out, the two knobs 1302 are rotated to drive the two screws 1301 to rotate, and the rotation of the two screws 1301 drives the two clamping plates 1303 to move to both ends. At this time, the clamping of the clamping plate 1303 on the battery is released, which facilitates the removal of the battery mounting tray 6. The battery has a different size after the battery mounting tray 6 is replaced. After the battery mounting tray 6 is installed into the interior of the tray body 2, the two knobs 1302 are rotated in the opposite direction to make the two clamping plates 1303 close to each other, thereby clamping the battery and improving the stability of the battery.

[0039] In one embodiment, Figure 7 As shown, a water cooling mechanism 14 and a heat dissipation mechanism 15 are respectively provided inside the tray body 2 and at the bottom of the battery mounting tray 6, and the water cooling mechanism 14 is located above the heat dissipation mechanism 15. The bottom of the battery mounting tray 6 can be cooled by the water cooling mechanism 14, and the battery mounting tray 6 cools the battery. At the same time, the water cooling mechanism 14 can reduce the air temperature, and the heat dissipation mechanism 15 generates wind, which drives the cooled air to move upward, further improving the cooling effect.

[0040] In one embodiment, Figure 8 As shown, the water cooling mechanism 14 includes a water cooling pipe 1401 and a water cooling box 1402. The water cooling pipe 1401 is equidistantly fixedly laid inside the tray body 2, and the water cooling pipe 1401 is in contact with the bottom of the battery mounting plate 6. The water cooling box 1402 is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1. Both ends of the water cooling pipe 1401 are connected to the water cooling box 1402. A water pump and a cooling component are provided inside the water cooling box 1402. The coolant is introduced into the water cooling pipe 1401 through the operation of the water pump. The water cooling pipe 1401 cools the inside of the tray body 2. The coolant that absorbs heat enters the water cooling box 1402 again. The coolant is cooled by the cooling component, so that the low-temperature coolant circulates inside the water cooling pipe 1401. The water cooling structure is an existing mature technical means and will not be elaborated on here.

[0041] In one embodiment, Figure 8 As shown, the heat dissipation mechanism 15 includes a mounting plate 1501, and the mounting plate 1501 is fixedly mounted inside the tray body 2. A fan 1502 is equidistantly embedded on the top of the mounting plate 1501. The fan 1502 generates wind, which can carry the heat generated by the battery during operation to the outside of the tray through air flow, thereby playing a role in heat dissipation.

[0042] In one embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a second wind net 11 is fixedly installed at an equal distance on the top of the battery mounting plate 6, and wind slots 16 are provided on both sides of the outside of the tray body 2. The setting of the wind slots 16 allows external air to enter the interior of the tray body 2. The setting of the second wind net 11 allows the wind generated by the fan 1502 to pass through the air, and the wind is finally discharged through the first wind net 4 with heat, forming an air duct, which plays a role in rapid cooling.

[0043] The working principle of the present invention is: when it is necessary to replace the battery, the two knobs 1302 are rotated to drive the two screws 1301 to rotate, and the rotation of the two screws 1301 drives the two clamps 1303 to move to both ends. At this time, the clamping of the clamps 1303 on the battery is released, and the bolts 804 are removed. When the battery mounting plate 6 slides out from the inside of the tray body 2, it drives the rack 805 to move, and the movement of the rack 805 drives the gear 802 to rotate, and the rotation of the gear 802 drives the mounting part 803 to rotate. The mounting part 803 rotates to release the obstruction to the battery mounting plate 6, so that the battery mounting plate 6 can slide out from the inside of the tray body 2. At this time, it is convenient to replace the battery on the battery mounting plate 6.

[0044] After the change of type is completed, when the battery mounting disk 6 is slid into the interior of the tray body 2, the rack 805 drives the gear 802 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the mounting part 803 is reset, and finally the mounting part 803 is in contact with the outer wall of the tray body 2 to block the battery mounting disk 6. When the mounting part 803 is in contact with the outer wall of the tray body 2, the through hole on the outside of the mounting part 803 is aligned with the mounting hole 10, and the bolt 804 is used to fix the mounting part 803 to the tray body 2, and then the battery mounting disk 6 is fixed to the tray body 2, and the two knobs 1302 are rotated in the opposite direction to make the two clamps 1303 approach each other, thereby clamping the battery.

[0045] Heat is generated during the battery charging and discharging process. The bottom of the battery mounting tray 6 can be cooled by the water cooling mechanism 14, and the battery mounting tray 6 can then cool the batteries. At the same time, the water cooling mechanism 14 can lower the air temperature. The setting of the wind slot 16 allows external air to enter the interior of the tray body 2. The setting of the second wind net 11 allows the wind generated by the fan 1502 to pass through the air. The wind carries the heat and is finally discharged through the first wind net 4 to form an air duct, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0046] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art who is familiar with the present technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
