Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of new energy battery charging and replenishment, and particularly to an integrated charging and swapping system, method, device, medium and product for electric heavy-duty trucks. Background Art

[0002] Compared with traditional fuel heavy-duty trucks that have been developed for many years, new energy electric heavy-duty trucks can greatly reduce transportation costs by using pure electric drive. However, there is still a large room for breakthrough and progress in some core technologies of new energy electric heavy-duty trucks, especially in the construction and layout of charging infrastructure, which needs to be further improved.

[0003] The energy replenishment methods of electric heavy-duty trucks are usually divided into two types: charging and swapping. In some cases, there is a problem of compact space in the energy replenishment stations of new energy electric heavy-duty trucks. Especially, the space of the energy replenishment stations in some highway service areas is extremely small. The construction of swapping stations for electric heavy-duty trucks requires a large amount of space, and most swapping stations can only perform one-to-one swapping, resulting in problems such as high construction costs, large space occupation, and small application scope. Moreover, for electric heavy-duty truck drivers, when the remaining power is low, they can choose to swap batteries to save energy replenishment time, and when the remaining power is high, they can choose to charge briefly to obtain a short rest time. The existing charging stations or swapping stations do not allow electric heavy-duty truck drivers to freely choose the energy replenishment method, resulting in low energy replenishment efficiency of electric heavy-duty trucks.
