Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electric vehicle battery swapping technology, and in particular to a method, equipment and medium for scheduled group battery swapping of electric vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] With increasing environmental awareness and continuous technological development, electric vehicles have gradually become one of the main choices for daily travel. However, with the widespread use of electric vehicles, battery replacement has become a significant issue. Currently, most electric vehicle users need to find charging stations themselves when their batteries run out. However, due to the limited number of charging stations, finding a suitable one can be time-consuming and laborious. Furthermore, even if a charging station is found, it may be busy or unavailable for immediate charging, causing considerable inconvenience to electric vehicle users.

[0003] Existing solutions include locating charging stations via mobile apps, but this method only works if the location of a charging station is known and cannot solve the problem of charging stations being busy. Furthermore, some regions have implemented time-based battery swapping services, requiring users to go to designated locations at specified times for battery swapping. While this addresses the issue of insufficient charging station numbers, it does not meet users' needs for flexibility and convenience.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of electric vehicle battery replacement solution that can save users time and effort, improve the efficiency of charging and battery replacement, and meet users' needs for flexibility and convenience. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application provides a method, equipment, and medium for scheduled group battery swapping of electric vehicles to solve the following technical problems: existing charging piles are difficult to use, and the battery swapping method cannot meet users' needs for flexibility and convenience.

[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a method for scheduled group battery swapping of electric vehicles, characterized in that the method includes: receiving reservation information of vehicles to be swapped uploaded by a client; wherein the reservation information includes: battery swapping address, vehicle information, and reserved battery swapping time interval; the vehicle information includes: vehicle model, battery type, and battery locking mechanism type; determining the battery swapping group corresponding to the vehicles to be swapped based on the battery swapping address in the reservation information, and determining the battery swapping order of the battery swapping engineering vehicle based on the reserved battery swapping time interval in the reservation information; and issuing a battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence to the battery swapping engineering vehicle based on the battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence, so that the battery swapping engineering vehicle can prepare tools and go to the designated location to perform battery swapping based on the battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence.

[0007] This application provides a method for scheduled group battery swapping of electric vehicles. By scheduling battery swapping time intervals, the travel and tasks of battery swapping vehicles can be rationally arranged, avoiding waste of vehicles and personnel and improving battery swapping efficiency. Based on the vehicle model, battery type, and battery locking mechanism type in the scheduling information, battery swapping tools and equipment can be prepared specifically, and battery swapping can be carried out according to the planned sequence, optimizing resource allocation and reducing waste. Group battery swapping allows for the sharing of equipment and manpower among battery swapping vehicles, reducing the battery swapping cost per vehicle. Within the scheduled time, battery swapping vehicles can prepare tools and equipment in advance and perform battery swapping according to the planned sequence, avoiding safety hazards caused by hastily preparing tools and equipment. Scheduled group battery swapping avoids user dissatisfaction due to long waiting times, improving user satisfaction. The battery swapping address and vehicle information in the scheduling information allow for convenient monitoring and management of the battery swapping process, ensuring the smooth operation of the battery swapping work.

[0008] In one implementation of this application, before receiving the reservation information of the vehicle to be swapped uploaded by the client, the method further includes: the user uploading the license plate information, the reserved battery swapping time range, and the battery swapping address of the vehicle to be swapped in the client's reservation system; the client connecting to the vehicle registration information system based on the license plate information to match the vehicle information corresponding to the license plate information; and the client generating reservation information based on the reserved battery swapping time range, the battery swapping address, and the vehicle information and uploading it.

[0009] In this embodiment, users can directly input the license plate information of the vehicle to be swapped, the scheduled battery swap time range, and the battery swap address in the reservation system, without needing to manually input other information. This reduces the possibility of input errors and improves work efficiency. The client connects to the vehicle registration information system based on the license plate information, enabling rapid matching of vehicle information corresponding to the license plate. This avoids errors caused by manual matching and improves matching speed. The client generates and uploads reservation information based on the scheduled battery swap time range, battery swap address, and vehicle information, simplifying user operations. Users do not need to manually generate reservation information; they only need to input the necessary information in the reservation system to complete the reservation operation. Generating and uploading reservation information through the reservation system facilitates the management of reservation information. This ensures the accuracy and completeness of reservation information and allows for convenient querying and tracking. Uploading reservation information through the client avoids security risks associated with manual operations. This improves data security and reduces losses due to erroneous operations.

[0010] In one implementation of this application, the battery swapping order for the battery swapping engineering vehicle is determined based on the scheduled battery swapping time interval in the reservation information. Specifically, this includes: determining the number of vehicles to be swapped within the scheduled battery swapping time interval in the battery swapping group; dividing the vehicles to be swapped within the scheduled battery swapping time interval into several battery swapping order groups based on the vehicle information of each vehicle to be swapped and the maximum workload of the battery swapping engineering vehicle per trip; determining the battery swapping function requirements required for each battery swapping order group, and matching the corresponding battery swapping engineering vehicle to the corresponding battery swapping order based on the battery swapping function requirements.

[0011] This application embodiment divides vehicles waiting for battery swapping within the scheduled time interval into several battery swapping order groups, which allows for better planning and management of battery swapping vehicle tasks. This avoids resource waste caused by excessively long battery swapping times for individual vehicles, improving overall battery swapping efficiency. Based on the vehicle information of each vehicle waiting for swapping and the maximum workload of each battery swapping vehicle, battery swapping order groups and vehicles can be allocated more rationally. This avoids resource waste or excessive workload caused by order groups that are too large or too small, optimizing resource allocation. By dividing vehicles waiting for swapping into multiple battery swapping order groups, equipment and manpower from multiple vehicles can be shared, thereby reducing the battery swapping cost per vehicle. By determining the battery swapping functional requirements of each order group, tools and equipment can be prepared in advance, and battery swapping can be carried out in the planned order, avoiding safety hazards caused by preparing tools and equipment on the spot. By dividing vehicles waiting for swapping into multiple battery swapping order groups, user dissatisfaction due to long waiting times can be avoided, improving user satisfaction. By determining the battery swapping function requirements of each battery swapping order group, the battery swapping process can be easily monitored and managed, ensuring the smooth progress of the battery swapping work.

[0012] In one implementation of this application, based on the vehicle information of each vehicle to be swapped and the maximum workload of the battery swapping engineering vehicle in a single trip, the vehicles to be swapped within the scheduled battery swapping time interval are divided into several battery swapping order groups. Specifically, this includes: dividing the vehicles to be swapped into large groups based on their vehicle models; wherein the vehicle models include: large vehicles, medium vehicles, and small vehicles; dividing the vehicles to be swapped into smaller groups based on the battery locking mechanism type of the vehicles to be swapped; wherein the battery locking mechanism types include: threaded locking, locking pin locking, rotary locking, flip locking, and top-pressing locking; and determining several battery swapping order groups based on the maximum workload of the battery swapping engineering vehicle in a single trip and the number of vehicles to be swapped in each group.

[0013] This application embodiment divides vehicles to be swapped into large groups and small groups based on vehicle model and battery locking mechanism type. This allows for a more effective assessment of the maximum workload of a single battery swapping operation and determines the size of the battery swapping order group. This avoids fluctuations in swapping time and workload due to differences in vehicle type and battery locking mechanism type, improving overall swapping efficiency. Dividing vehicles into large and small groups allows for a better assessment of the resource and manpower requirements for the battery swapping operation. This enables targeted allocation of resources and manpower based on different groups and types of vehicles, optimizing resource configuration and improving work efficiency. Determining several battery swapping order groups allows for better planning and management of battery swapping operation tasks. This avoids resource waste caused by excessively long swapping times for individual vehicles and reduces the swapping cost per vehicle. Dividing vehicles into large and small groups allows for a better assessment of the swapping difficulty and risks of each order group. This allows for advance safety preparation measures, improving the safety of the swapping process. Dividing vehicles into large and small groups allows for a better assessment of the swapping time and workload of each order group. This avoids user dissatisfaction due to long waiting times, thus improving user satisfaction. By defining several battery swapping order groups, the battery swapping process can be better monitored and managed. This allows for timely tracking of the progress and status of each order group, facilitating coordination and management of the overall battery swapping operation.

[0014] In one implementation of this application, several battery swapping order groups are determined based on the maximum workload of a single battery swapping vehicle and the number of vehicles to be swapped in each group. Specifically, this includes: determining whether the number of vehicles to be swapped in each group is a multiple of the maximum workload of the battery swapping vehicle for the corresponding work type; if it is determined that the number of vehicles to be swapped in a group to be assigned is not a multiple of the maximum workload of the battery swapping vehicle for the corresponding work type, determining whether there is a compatible allocation group for the group to be assigned; if it is determined that there is a compatible allocation group for the group to be assigned, adding the vehicles to be swapped that are not integer multiples of the maximum workload in the group to be assigned to the compatible allocation group; if it is determined that there is no compatible allocation group for the group to be assigned, treating the vehicles to be swapped that are not integer multiples of the maximum workload in the group to be assigned as a battery swapping order group.

[0015] In this embodiment of the application, if the number of vehicles waiting to be swapped is a multiple of the maximum workload of a single swapping vehicle for the corresponding work type, then the resources of the swapping vehicles can be fully utilized, avoiding waste. If it is not a multiple, by adding vehicles waiting to be swapped that are not multiples of the assigned group to a compatible allocation group, the idle time of the swapping vehicles can be minimized, improving the overall swapping efficiency. By determining whether the number of vehicles waiting to be swapped in each group is a multiple of the maximum workload of a single swapping vehicle for the corresponding work type, the resource and manpower requirements of the swapping vehicles can be better assessed. This allows for targeted allocation of resources and manpower, optimizing resource configuration and improving work efficiency. By adding vehicles waiting to be swapped that are not multiples of the assigned group to a compatible allocation group, the number of empty runs of the swapping vehicles due to insufficient vehicle numbers can be minimized, thereby reducing operating costs. By determining whether the number of vehicles waiting to be swapped in each group is a multiple of the maximum workload of a single swapping vehicle for the corresponding work type, the swapping difficulty and risk of each order group can be better assessed. This allows for advance safety preparation measures, improving the safety of the swapping process. By adding vehicles awaiting battery swapping that are not integer multiples of those in the initial allocation group to a compatible allocation group, user waiting time can be minimized, improving user satisfaction. Establishing several battery swapping order groups allows for better monitoring and management of the swapping process. This enables timely tracking of the progress and status of each order group, facilitating overall coordination and management of the battery swapping operation.

[0016] In one implementation of this application, before issuing a list of battery swapping tools and a battery swapping planning sequence to the battery swapping engineering vehicles based on the battery swapping order, the method further includes: determining a list of battery swapping tools based on the battery type corresponding to each vehicle to be swapped in the battery swapping order; and determining the battery swapping planning sequence of each vehicle to be swapped in the battery swapping order based on the battery swapping address corresponding to each vehicle to be swapped in the battery swapping order through a preset path planning model.

[0017] This application embodiment, by determining the battery type of each vehicle in a battery swapping order, allows for targeted preparation of battery swapping tools and equipment, avoiding fluctuations in swapping time and workload due to different battery types, and improving overall battery swapping efficiency. Simultaneously, a pre-defined path planning model can determine the battery swapping sequence for each vehicle in the order, preventing conflicts or congestion near the swapping station, reducing waiting time, and improving swapping efficiency. Determining the battery type of each vehicle in the order allows for targeted allocation of resources and manpower, optimizing resource configuration. For example, suitable swapping vehicles and tools can be selected for different battery types, improving work efficiency. Furthermore, targeted preparation of swapping tools and equipment reduces fluctuations in swapping time and workload due to different battery types, lowering the swapping cost per vehicle. Finally, determining the battery type of each vehicle in the order allows for targeted preparation of safety equipment and measures. For example, appropriate protective equipment and operating procedures can be selected for different battery types, ensuring the safety of the operation. By determining the battery swapping sequence for each vehicle in a battery swapping order, user waiting time can be minimized, improving user satisfaction. Simultaneously, by preparing targeted battery swapping tools and equipment, fluctuations in swapping time and workload due to different battery types can be reduced, enhancing user experience and service quality. Furthermore, defining the battery type and swapping sequence for each vehicle in a battery swapping order facilitates monitoring and management of the swapping process. This allows for timely tracking of the swapping progress and status of each order group, facilitating overall coordination and management of the battery swapping operation.

[0018] In one implementation of this application, after issuing a list of battery swapping tools and a battery swapping planning sequence to the battery swapping engineering vehicles based on the battery swapping order, the method further includes: sending the corresponding battery swapping engineering vehicle information and battery swapping planning sequence to the client, and updating the current battery swapping work node in real time.

[0019] In this embodiment, the client can monitor the current battery swapping status and progress in real time, allowing users to easily understand the battery swapping status of their vehicles. Simultaneously, the client can make advance reservations and preparations based on the actual battery swapping schedule. The client can also anticipate potential safety risks and hazards based on the current battery swapping status and progress, and take corresponding preventative measures. Furthermore, the client can monitor and manage the battery swapping process in real time, ensuring operational safety. By sending battery swapping vehicle information and the battery swapping schedule to the client, users can better understand the status and progress of their vehicles during the swapping process, thereby reducing waiting time and concerns and improving user satisfaction. Sending battery swapping vehicle information and the battery swapping schedule to the client also allows management departments or managers to better understand the current battery swapping status and progress, facilitating overall coordination and management of the battery swapping operation.

[0020] In one implementation of this application, the method further includes: after the battery swap is completed, the user pays for the battery swap order based on the client and evaluates the service quality of the battery swap station.

[0021] In this embodiment, users can complete the payment for battery swapping orders directly on the client application, avoiding the hassle of queuing at battery swapping stations or banks, saving time and effort. Online payment via the client application protects user transaction security, preventing potential loss or theft issues associated with cash transactions. Users can view detailed information about their battery swapping orders on the client application, including fees and service quality evaluations of the battery swapping stations, making the transaction process more transparent and fair. By evaluating the service quality of the battery swapping stations, the stations can understand user needs and feedback, thereby improving service quality and increasing user satisfaction. Online payment accelerates the processing speed of battery swapping orders, improving the efficiency of battery swapping services. Based on user needs and feedback, the resource allocation of battery swapping stations can be optimized to better meet user demands. Online payment and order management via the client application can promote the popularization and development of smart mobility, improving travel efficiency and service levels.

[0022] Secondly, embodiments of this application also provide a reservation-based group battery swapping device for electric vehicles, characterized in that the device includes: at least one processor; and a memory communicatively connected to the at least one processor; wherein the memory stores instructions executable by the at least one processor, the instructions being executed by the at least one processor to enable the at least one processor to: receive reservation information of vehicles to be swapped uploaded by a client; wherein the reservation information includes: battery swapping address, vehicle information, and reserved battery swapping time interval; the vehicle information includes: vehicle model, battery type, and battery locking mechanism type; based on the battery swapping address in the reservation information, determine the battery swapping group corresponding to the vehicle to be swapped, and based on the reserved battery swapping time interval in the reservation information, determine the battery swapping order for the battery swapping engineering vehicle; based on the battery swapping order, issue a battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence to the battery swapping engineering vehicle, so that the battery swapping engineering vehicle prepares tools and goes to the designated location to perform battery swapping based on the battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence.

[0023] Thirdly, this application embodiment also provides a non-volatile computer storage medium for electric vehicle reservation group battery swapping, storing computer-executable instructions. The computer-executable instructions are characterized by: receiving reservation information of vehicles to be swapped uploaded by a client; wherein the reservation information includes: battery swapping address, vehicle information, and reserved battery swapping time interval; the vehicle information includes: vehicle model, battery type, and battery locking mechanism type; determining the battery swapping group corresponding to the vehicle to be swapped based on the battery swapping address in the reservation information, and determining the battery swapping order for the battery swapping engineering vehicle based on the reserved battery swapping time interval in the reservation information; and issuing a battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence to the battery swapping engineering vehicle based on the battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence, so that the battery swapping engineering vehicle prepares tools and proceeds to the designated location to perform battery swapping based on the battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence.

[0024] This application provides a method, equipment, and medium for scheduled group battery swapping of electric vehicles. By scheduling group swapping, the information of vehicles awaiting swapping is managed and planned in a unified manner, improving the efficiency and smoothness of the swapping process. By determining the order and sequence of swapping orders, disorderly parking and empty runs of swapping vehicles near swapping stations can be avoided, thus saving resources. Users can make reservations, payments, and evaluations through a client application, eliminating the need to visit the swapping station in person, greatly improving the user experience. This method reduces security risks associated with cash transactions through online payment and evaluation, while real-time updates on the client application help users stay informed about safety risks and precautions during the swapping process. Online management through the client application promotes the popularization and development of smart mobility, improving travel efficiency and service levels. Matching reservation and vehicle information through the client application allows for better allocation of resources and manpower, optimizing resource configuration. User evaluations of the service quality of swapping stations encourage stations to improve service quality and meet user needs. Online payment and order management accelerate the processing speed of swapping orders, improving the overall efficiency of the swapping service. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] This application provides a method, equipment, and medium for scheduled group battery swapping of electric vehicles to solve the following technical problems: existing charging piles are difficult to use, and the battery swapping method cannot meet users' needs for flexibility and convenience.

[0030] The technical solutions proposed in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for pre-booking and group battery swapping of electric vehicles, provided as an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the electric vehicle reservation group battery swapping method provided in this application embodiment specifically includes the following steps:

[0032] Step 101: Receive the reservation information of the vehicle to be swapped uploaded by the client.

[0033] First, it should be noted that the reservation information in this application includes: battery swapping address, vehicle information, and reserved battery swapping time range; the vehicle information includes: vehicle model, battery type, and battery locking mechanism type.

[0034] In one embodiment of this application, before receiving the reservation information of the vehicle to be swapped uploaded by the client, the method further includes: the user filling in the license plate information, reservation time range, and swapping address of the vehicle to be swapped in the client's reservation system. This information is submitted to the server through the client. The client sends the license plate information to the vehicle registration information system, and the system matches the vehicle information based on the license plate information. This process can be implemented through an API interface or a direct data link. After the client obtains the matched vehicle information, it integrates the reservation time range, swapping address, and vehicle information to generate reservation information. The client uploads the reservation information to the server, where it is stored and processed subsequently.

[0035] It's important to note that after the above steps are completed, the server can then generate battery swapping orders and schedule battery swapping vehicles based on the received reservation information. This ensures that each step has a clear information flow and task objective, guaranteeing the accuracy of the reservation information and the efficiency of subsequent processing. Simultaneously, through the client's user interface, users can intuitively view their reservation information, including license plate information, reserved battery swapping time range, and swapping address, thus gaining a clearer understanding of their battery swapping plan.

[0036] Step 102: Based on the battery swapping address in the reservation information, determine the battery swapping group corresponding to the vehicle to be swapped, and based on the reserved battery swapping time interval in the reservation information, determine the battery swapping order for the battery swapping engineering vehicle.

[0037] In one embodiment of this application, after receiving the reservation information of the vehicle to be swapped uploaded by the client, the battery swapping group corresponding to the vehicle to be swapped is determined based on the battery swapping address in the reservation information. It can be understood that one battery swapping group corresponds to one area.

[0038] In one embodiment of this application, after determining the battery swapping group corresponding to the vehicle to be swapped based on the battery swapping address in the reservation information, the battery swapping order of the battery swapping engineering vehicle is determined based on the reserved battery swapping time interval in the reservation information.

[0039] Specifically, within the battery swapping group, the number of vehicles waiting to be swapped within the scheduled battery swapping time interval is determined; based on the vehicle information of each vehicle waiting to be swapped and the maximum workload of the battery swapping engineering vehicle per trip, the vehicles waiting to be swapped within the scheduled battery swapping time interval are divided into several battery swapping order groups; the battery swapping function requirements of each battery swapping order group are determined, and the corresponding battery swapping engineering vehicle is matched to the corresponding battery swapping order based on the battery swapping function requirements.

[0040] In one embodiment of this application, based on the vehicle information of each vehicle to be swapped and the maximum workload of the battery swapping engineering vehicle in a single trip, the vehicles to be swapped within the scheduled battery swapping time interval are divided into several battery swapping order groups. Specifically, this includes: dividing the vehicles to be swapped into large groups based on their vehicle models; wherein the vehicle models include: large vehicles, medium vehicles, and small vehicles; dividing the vehicles to be swapped into smaller groups based on the battery locking mechanism type of the vehicles to be swapped; wherein the battery locking mechanism type includes: threaded locking, locking pin locking, rotary locking, flip locking, and top-pressing locking; and determining several battery swapping order groups based on the maximum workload of the battery swapping engineering vehicle in a single trip and the number of vehicles to be swapped in each group.

[0041] It should be noted that, based on the maximum workload of a single battery swapping vehicle and the number of vehicles to be swapped in each group, several battery swapping order groups are determined. Specifically, this includes: determining whether the number of vehicles to be swapped in each group is a multiple of the maximum workload of the corresponding type of battery swapping vehicle; if it is determined that the number of vehicles to be swapped in a group is not a multiple of the maximum workload of the corresponding type of battery swapping vehicle, determining whether there is a compatible allocation group for the group to be allocated; if it is determined that there is a compatible allocation group for the group to be allocated, adding the vehicles to be swapped that are not integer multiples of the maximum workload in the group to be allocated to the compatible allocation group; if it is determined that there is no compatible allocation group for the group to be allocated, adding the vehicles to be swapped that are not integer multiples of the maximum workload in the group to be allocated as a single battery swapping order group.

[0042] Understandably, the vehicles to be swapped will be grouped based on their model. These models include large, medium, and small vehicles. For example, all large vehicles will be grouped into one group, medium vehicles into another, and small vehicles into yet another.

[0043] Then, based on the type of battery locking mechanism used by the vehicles to be swapped, the vehicles in each major group are divided into subgroups. Battery locking mechanism types include threaded locking, pin locking, rotary locking, flip locking, and top-pressing locking. For example, all vehicles using threaded locking are grouped into one subgroup, all vehicles using pin locking are grouped into another subgroup, and so on.

[0044] Next, based on the maximum workload of the battery swapping vehicle per trip and the number of vehicles to be swapped in each group, several battery swapping order groups are determined. The maximum workload of the battery swapping vehicle per trip refers to the maximum number of battery swaps that a single battery swapping vehicle can complete in one task. This value will vary depending on the type of battery swapping vehicle.

[0045] Determine whether the number of vehicles waiting to have their batteries swapped in each group is a multiple of the maximum workload of a single battery swapping vehicle for the corresponding work type. If the number of vehicles waiting to have their batteries swapped is exactly a multiple of the maximum workload of a single battery swapping vehicle, then these vehicles can be grouped into one battery swapping order group.

[0046] If the number of vehicles waiting to be swapped is not a multiple of the maximum workload of a single battery swapping operation, then it is necessary to determine whether a compatible allocation group exists. If a compatible allocation group exists, then vehicles waiting to be swapped that are not integer multiples of the vehicles in the allocation group should be added to the compatible allocation group, and these vehicles can be assigned to a single battery swapping order group.

[0047] If no compatible allocation group exists in the waiting group, then vehicles in the waiting group that are not multiples of 3 will be grouped into one battery swapping order group. For example, if a group has 5 vehicles, but the corresponding battery swapping vehicle can only handle 3 vehicles at a time, then the vehicles in this group need to be divided into two battery swapping order groups because 5 is not a multiple of 3.

[0048] This implementation allows for more effective management and scheduling of battery swapping vehicles, thereby improving the efficiency and smoothness of the entire battery swapping process. Furthermore, detailed planning and processing of reservation information can better meet user needs and provide higher-quality service.

[0049] Step 103: Based on the battery swapping order, issue a battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence to the battery swapping engineering vehicle, so that the battery swapping engineering vehicle can prepare tools and go to the designated location to perform battery swapping based on the battery swapping tool list and battery swapping planning sequence.

[0050] In one embodiment of this application, after determining the battery swapping order for the battery swapping engineering vehicle based on the scheduled battery swapping time interval in the reservation information, the battery swapping tool list is first determined based on the battery type corresponding to each vehicle to be swapped in the battery swapping order; and the battery swapping planning order of each vehicle to be swapped in the battery swapping order is determined by a preset path planning model based on the battery swapping address corresponding to each vehicle to be swapped in the battery swapping order.

[0051] Understandably, a battery swap order contains all the relevant information for the task, including vehicle information, scheduled swap time range, and swap location. This information is generated by the server based on the scheduled and vehicle information and then distributed to the corresponding battery swapping vehicle. The server then generates a corresponding battery swapping plan based on the vehicle information and scheduled swap time range in the order. This plan includes detailed information such as the swapping order and time for each vehicle. Finally, the server generates a list of necessary battery swapping tools based on the vehicle information and scheduled swap time range. This list includes all required tools and equipment, such as battery replacement equipment and charging equipment.

[0052] Furthermore, the battery swapping plan sequence and a list of swapping tools will be distributed to the corresponding battery swapping vehicles. After receiving this information, the battery swapping vehicles will prepare their tools according to the plan sequence and proceed to the designated location to perform the battery swapping task.

[0053] In one embodiment of this application, the designated location is such as a residential community and nearby parking lots, or a parking area pre-planned by the battery swapping operator. These locations are typically pre-defined and planned to facilitate battery swapping operations by the swapping vehicle. For residential communities and nearby parking lots, these locations are usually concentrated and easily accessible. These parking lots typically have dedicated parking spaces for electric vehicles, making it easier for the swapping vehicle to locate and reach the target vehicle. Furthermore, since these parking lots usually have security facilities such as monitoring equipment, the safety of the battery swapping process can be ensured. For parking areas pre-planned by the battery swapping operator, these locations are usually carefully selected and designed. These parking areas typically take into account various factors, such as traffic convenience, parking space size, and the surrounding environment. Performing battery swapping operations in these parking areas is generally more efficient and safer.

[0054] Furthermore, after issuing a list of battery swapping tools and a battery swapping planning sequence to the battery swapping engineering vehicles based on the battery swapping order, the method also includes: sending the corresponding battery swapping engineering vehicle information and battery swapping planning sequence to the client, and updating the current battery swapping work node in real time.

[0055] Furthermore, after completing the battery swap, users can pay for the battery swap order and rate the service quality of the battery swap station through the client application.

[0056] It should be noted that payment can also be made prepaid before the battery swapping process begins. This can be configured according to specific needs.

[0057] The above are embodiments of the method proposed in this application. Based on the same inventive concept, embodiments of this application also provide a reservation-based group battery swapping device for electric vehicles, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.

[0058] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of a reservation-based group battery swapping device for electric vehicles, provided as an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, the device includes:

[0059] At least one processor 201;

[0060] And a memory 202 that is communicatively connected to at least one processor;

[0062] Receive reservation information for vehicles to be swapped uploaded by the client; the reservation information includes: battery swapping address, vehicle information, and reserved battery swapping time range; the vehicle information includes: vehicle model, battery type, and battery locking mechanism type;

[0063] Based on the battery swapping address in the reservation information, determine the battery swapping group corresponding to the vehicle to be swapped, and based on the reservation time range in the reservation information, determine the battery swapping order for the battery swapping engineering vehicle.

[0064] Based on the battery swapping order, a list of battery swapping tools and a battery swapping plan sequence are issued to the battery swapping engineering vehicles so that the vehicles can prepare their tools and proceed to the designated locations to perform battery swapping.

[0065] Some embodiments of this application provide corresponding to Figure 1 A non-volatile computer storage medium for electric vehicle reservation-based group battery swapping stores computer-executable instructions, which are configured as follows:

[0066] Receive reservation information for vehicles to be swapped uploaded by the client; the reservation information includes: battery swapping address, vehicle information, and reserved battery swapping time range; the vehicle information includes: vehicle model, battery type, and battery locking mechanism type;

[0067] Based on the battery swapping address in the reservation information, determine the battery swapping group corresponding to the vehicle to be swapped, and based on the reservation time range in the reservation information, determine the battery swapping order for the battery swapping engineering vehicle.

[0068] Based on the battery swapping order, a list of battery swapping tools and a battery swapping plan sequence are issued to the battery swapping engineering vehicles so that the vehicles can prepare their tools and proceed to the designated locations to perform battery swapping.

Each embodiment focuses on describing the differences from other embodiments. In particular, the embodiments for IoT devices and media are basically similar to the method embodiments, so the description is relatively simple; relevant parts can be referred to the descriptions of the method embodiments.
