Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of new energy vehicles, in particular to a battery swap station, a battery swap system and a battery swap method. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the prior art, the battery swap station usually adopts a layout structure of two rows of multiple columns of battery seats, a passage is arranged between or on both sides of the two rows of battery seats, and a battery seat position is reserved in the passage as a turnover position. The layout realizes the horizontal movement of the battery box through the passage (there is enough space above the battery box to realize the up-down movement of the battery box). When a battery box on a certain battery seat in the array needs to be replaced or reconfigured, the operation process is usually to use a hoisting unit to take out the battery box on the battery swap vehicle from the mounting seat, and then transfer it through the passage and temporarily place it on the preset turnover position. After this step is completed, the hoisting unit can perform subsequent operations, such as placing the battery box in the battery swap station on the mounting seat, or moving the battery box at the turnover position to other designated positions. The entire physical handling process of the battery box is highly dependent on the movement of the hoisting unit in the passage and the picking and placing operations between different positions in the battery swap station to realize.

[0003] However, this existing layout structure causes a significant technical problem: when the battery box is replaced or the position is adjusted, the moving path is usually long and time-consuming. When a battery box that is not located at the turnover position needs to be replaced (which is the vast majority of cases), the hoisting unit must perform a long-distance movement process. Specifically, the hoisting unit first needs to move to the original position of the target battery box, pick up the battery box, and then carry it to the turnover position and place it down. Thereafter, if a new battery box needs to be placed, the hoisting unit needs to move a long distance again (possibly returning to the original area or to the new battery box storage point) to pick up the new battery box, and then move a long distance again to place it at the target position. In this process, the battery box itself and the hoisting unit need to move back and forth a long distance in the passage multiple times, resulting in a significant increase in operation time, mainly the time spent by the hoisting unit carrying the battery box in the passage, which reduces the operation efficiency of the overall system. SUMMARY

[0004] To solve the problem of long time consumption in the battery swap process of the battery swap station, the present application provides a battery swap station, comprising:

[0015] In some embodiments, based on the battery swap vehicle reaching the battery swap area, the state data of the battery swap system is obtained; wherein the state data comprises the power of the battery box in the first battery holder, the power of the battery box in the second battery holder, and the position of the mounting seat of the battery swap vehicle in the battery swap area.

[0016] Based on the fact that there is no battery box in two second battery holders and there is a battery box with more than a set amount of power in the first battery holder, the battery box with less power on the battery swap vehicle is moved to the second battery holder away from the mounting seat.

[0017] Based on moving the battery box with less power on the battery swap vehicle to the second battery holder away from the mounting seat, one of the battery boxes with more than the set amount of power in the first battery holder is moved to the mounting seat of the battery swap vehicle.
