Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of battery swapping station technology, and specifically discloses a mobile battery swapping station and a battery swapping management system. Background Technology

[0002] Due to the poor road conditions and steep slopes in mining areas, high power requirements are placed on mining trucks. Currently, hybrid mining trucks are commonly used for transportation operations, but they will be gradually replaced by new energy mining trucks in the future to improve economic efficiency and environmental friendliness. The widespread adoption of new energy mining trucks also presents new challenges for their refueling.

[0003] In current technology, charging piles are still the primary means of replenishing energy for mining trucks in mining areas. However, charging speeds are slow, and these piles are located far from the mining face, affecting the efficiency of transportation capacity in the mining area. Existing battery swapping stations are limited by insufficient power supply in mining areas, and their locations are often far from the working face. Furthermore, existing battery swapping stations typically require the installation of chargers and battery storage spaces, resulting in high costs and difficulties in relocation.

[0004] Based on the above problems, there is an urgent need to provide a battery swapping station and system for heavy-duty trucks (mining trucks) that is highly efficient, low-cost, and can be quickly relocated, so as to enable battery swapping for heavy-duty trucks and mining trucks in harsh mining environments and where power is insufficient, and to allow for rapid relocation as needed.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing technology in order to solve the problems existing in the existing technology. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to disclose a mobile battery swapping station and a battery swapping management system to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A mobile battery swapping station includes a battery delivery vehicle and a battery swapping platform. The battery delivery vehicle is equipped with battery swapping equipment. The battery swapping platform includes a battery swapping robot and an adjustable fixed track base supporting the battery swapping robot.

[0016] Preferably, the outer surface of the flexible membrane is provided with a heat-resistant layer, which is any one of aerogel, polyurethane foam, and polystyrene foam.

[0017] Furthermore, the height of the horizontal protective device is higher than that of the adjustable fixed track seat, but lower than that of the battery swapping robot.

[0018] Furthermore, the adjustable fixed track base includes a track body and limiting devices disposed at both ends of the track body. The track body comprises two integrated parallel steel rails and a spliced ​​load-bearing track base, and is fixed to the ground in a detachable manner. The limiting devices are used to prevent the battery swapping robot from sliding off the track.

[0019] Preferably, the bottom of the track body is also provided with an adaptive leveling component, which includes hydraulic support legs and a laser positioning device.

[0020] Furthermore, the battery swapping robot can move horizontally in both directions along the track body, move vertically through the lifting mechanism, and extend and retract in both directions perpendicular to the track body through the fork extension mechanism. An angle adaptive adjustment device is provided between the top of the lifting mechanism and the fork extension mechanism. The angle adaptive adjustment device is used to deflect the fork extension mechanism, thereby enabling the spreader on the fork extension mechanism to adapt to the battery swapping vehicle and / or battery delivery vehicle parked at different angles.

[0021] Furthermore, the horizontal protective device is also equipped with an access control system, allowing authorized personnel to enter the interior of the protective fence.

[0022] A battery swapping management system based on a mobile battery swapping station, the system being applied to the mobile battery swapping station, comprising:

[0023] The power supply module, installed on the mobile battery swapping station, is used to power the battery swapping robot.

[0025] The monitoring module collects real-time information on the energy consumption of the battery swapping robot and the battery charge level in the battery delivery vehicle.

[0026] Furthermore, the mobile battery swapping station also includes a control room, which is powered by a power supply module, the power supply module comprising:

[0027] The main power supply unit is installed on the mobile battery swapping station and is used to supply power to the battery swapping platform;

[0028] A backup power supply unit is installed on the mobile battery swapping station. The backup power supply unit supplies power to the battery swapping platform when the main power supply unit cannot supply power to the battery swapping platform.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0030] 1. This invention discloses a mobile battery swapping station and a battery swapping management system. The mobile battery swapping station includes a battery delivery vehicle and a battery swapping platform. The battery swapping platform includes a battery swapping robot and an adjustable fixed track seat that carries the battery swapping robot. In addition, the adjustable fixed track seat adopts a multi-segment assembly structure, which can achieve rapid deployment and rapid relocation, greatly improving the relocation speed of the mobile battery swapping station. It is also equipped with a vertical heat protection device and a horizontal protection device, which can protect the battery swapping area in both vertical and horizontal directions.

[0031] 2. The vertical protection device of this invention includes a frame structure and a flexible membrane covering the frame structure.

[0042] Figure 3 A is the battery delivery vehicle lane, B is the area for the battery swapping robot, and C is the lane for vehicles waiting to have their batteries swapped. Detailed Implementation

[0043] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it should be noted that these embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Equivalent changes or substitutions in function, method, or structure made by those skilled in the art based on these embodiments are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] like Figure 1-7 As shown, where Figure 3 In the diagram, A is the battery delivery vehicle lane, B is the area for the battery swapping robot, and C is the lane for vehicles waiting to have their batteries swapped.

[0045] This invention discloses a mobile battery swapping station and a battery swapping management system. The mobile battery swapping station includes a battery delivery vehicle 1 and a battery swapping platform. The battery delivery vehicle 1 is equipped with a battery swapping unit (unlabeled). The battery swapping platform includes a battery swapping robot 2 and an adjustable fixed track 3 supporting the battery swapping robot 2. The adjustable fixed track 3 adopts a multi-segment assembly structure. The mobile battery swapping station also includes:

[0046] The vertical protective device 5 is installed above the battery swapping robot 2 and the adjustable fixed track seat 3, and provides vertical protection for the battery swapping robot 2, the vehicle to be swapped (not shown), and the battery delivery vehicle 1.

[0047] The horizontal protective device 4 includes a protective railing surrounding the adjustable fixed track seat 3, the protective railing being used to form an isolation area around the adjustable fixed track seat.

[0048] The vertical protection device 5 includes a frame structure 51 and a flexible membrane 50 covering the frame structure 51. The frame structure 51 is connected to the ground foundation or support structure through detachable connectors (including bolts). The flexible membrane 50 is detachably connected to the frame structure 51 for easy replacement and maintenance.

[0049] It also includes a control room 6, which is electrically connected to the battery swapping robot 2 and the battery delivery vehicle 1 respectively. The control room can automatically exchange batteries between the vehicle to be swapped and the battery delivery vehicle 1 by controlling the battery swapping robot 2, thereby improving the battery swapping efficiency.

[0050] The frame structure 51 includes a plurality of first support columns 511 located on one side of the adjustable fixed track seat 3, a plurality of second support columns 512 on one side of the driving lane A for the battery delivery vehicle 1 to travel, and a plurality of crossbeams located on the top of the first support columns 511 and the second support columns 512 respectively. The flexible membrane 50 is installed on the crossbeams. The height of the first support columns 511 is higher than the height of the second support columns 512, so as to form an arched structure with the middle higher than the sides, which helps the flexible membrane 50 to drain water.

[0051] Furthermore, the crossbeam includes a first crossbeam 521 located on both sides and a second crossbeam 522 located in the middle, the length of the second crossbeam 522 being greater than the length of the first crossbeam 521. In this embodiment, by extending the two first support columns 511 located in the middle and adding a connector 523, the longer second crossbeam 522 can be effectively supported and reinforced. The connector 523 can be rigid or flexible. In other embodiments, the upper end of the connector 523 can also be connected to a component other than the first support columns 511, which will not be elaborated further.

[0052] Preferably, the first support column 511, the second support column 512, and the crossbeam are all made of stainless steel alloy, which has strong hardness and toughness.

[0053] Furthermore, the first support column 511 and the second support column 512 are fixed by anchor bolts, and the crossbeam is connected to the first support column 511 and the second support column 512 by bolts. The crossbeam has a certain curvature, and when the flexible membrane is covered on the crossbeam, it also presents a certain curvature accordingly.

[0054] The flexible membrane 50 extends above the driving lane of the vehicle waiting to have its battery swapped, providing rain and sun protection for the swapping area. The vertical protective device 5, viewed from above, is roughly T-shaped, while the crossbeam is arc-shaped from the side, serving to guide water flow and prevent water accumulation. Considering that the swapping area on the vehicle waiting to have its battery swapped is smaller than that on the battery delivery vehicle, the T-shaped structure reduces material usage and saves costs. Furthermore, the arc-shaped flexible membrane 50 allows rain and snow to slide off quickly and easily, avoiding excessive load. Therefore, the vertical protective device 5 of this invention, in addition to good rain and snow protection, also has a long service life and low construction cost.

[0055] The battery swapping area includes the area formed when battery delivery vehicles and vehicles waiting to have their batteries swapped are parked.

[0056] Multiple first support columns 511 are located on one side of the adjustable fixed track seat 3, and multiple second support columns 512 are located on one side of the driving lane for the battery delivery vehicle 1 to travel, thereby achieving full coverage of the aforementioned battery swapping area.

[0057] Preferably, the flexible membrane 50 has high tensile strength and is fixed to the crossbeam by a buckle (not shown).

[0058] Preferably, the outer surface of the flexible membrane is provided with a heat-resistant layer, which is any one of aerogel, polyurethane foam, and polystyrene foam.

[0059] Furthermore, the height of the horizontal protective device 4 is higher than that of the adjustable fixed track seat 3 and lower than that of the battery swapping robot 2, thus forming a semi-enclosed protective structure. On the one hand, it can achieve the protective effect, and on the other hand, it saves construction costs compared to a fully enclosed protective structure. It also has a good heat dissipation effect and is conducive to observing the operation of the internal battery swapping robot 2.

[0060] An adjustable fixed track base 3 is installed on the ground in the battery swapping area, with its length parallel to the driveway. It is used for the battery swapping robot 2 to slide and move. The track base includes a track body and limiting devices at both ends. The track body comprises two integrated parallel steel rails and spliced ​​support track bases, and is detachably fixed to the ground. The limiting devices prevent the battery swapping robot from sliding off the track. In some scenarios, the battery swapping platform can be expanded by increasing the number of support track bases and the length of the steel rails; this will not be elaborated upon here.

[0061] Preferably, the guardrail in the horizontal protection device 4 is equipped with a warning light and a sensor. The sensor is used to detect the intrusion of people and objects in the surrounding area. When a person or object is detected to have intruded, the sensor transmits a signal and triggers the warning light to emit a warning signal.

[0062] The vertical protective device 5 is used for rain and snow protection and sun shading. Depending on the scenario, flexible films with different transparency can be selected. For example, in cold regions, transparent flexible films can be selected, which allow better light transmission in winter, absorb heat, and ensure that the battery swapping area is well-lit. This can protect the battery and related equipment during the battery swapping process.

[0063] In some manned implementation scenarios, the mobile battery swapping station also includes a monitoring room 6, where the control room is located. The monitoring room 6 also includes a guard booth, office chairs, electrical control cabinets, network cabinets, etc. The integrated monitoring room 6 is used to store electrical components such as electrical control cabinets and network cabinets, and also provides office or rest space for on-site maintenance personnel when needed. In other unmanned implementation scenarios, the monitoring room 6 can be omitted, and the control module can be located at one end or the bottom of the battery swapping platform.

[0064] In addition, when in hot and sunny weather, an opaque flexible film can be selected, and a heat-insulating layer can be set on its outer surface for heat insulation. In hot weather, it can provide a cool place for the battery swapping area, reduce the energy consumption of the battery swapping robot 2 when working at high temperatures, and at the same time prevent the battery from having a safety accident due to high temperature during battery swapping, thus improving safety.

[0065] The guardrail is assembled using plug-in connectors or bolts, facilitating quick assembly and disassembly.

[0066] The limiting device can be understood as a limiting block vertically set at the end of the track body, and the limiting block is bolted to the end of the track body.

[0067] Furthermore, the battery swapping robot 2 can move horizontally in both directions along the track body, achieve vertical movement through a lifting mechanism, and achieve bidirectional extension and retraction perpendicular to the track body through a fork extension mechanism. The fork mechanism can rotate around a pivot located at the top of the lifting mechanism in the horizontal plane to adjust the angle within a certain range. Specifically, an angle adaptive adjustment device is provided between the top of the lifting mechanism and the fork extension mechanism. This angle adaptive adjustment device is used to deflect the fork extension mechanism, thereby allowing the lifting device mounted on the fork extension mechanism to adapt to battery swapping vehicles and / or battery delivery vehicles parked at different angles. In other words, when the battery swapping vehicle and / or battery delivery vehicle enters the mobile battery swapping station and stops, if the vehicle's orientation is not parallel to the track body, the battery on the vehicle is not completely perpendicular to the battery swapping robot 2. At this time, there is an angular deviation between the lifting device on the fork mechanism and the battery. The angle adaptive adjustment device on the battery swapping robot 2 can rotate the fork extension mechanism, thereby aligning the lifting device on the fork extension mechanism with the battery to be grabbed, achieving precise picking and placing of the battery by the battery swapping robot.

[0068] The horizontal protective device 4 is also equipped with an access control system, which allows authorized personnel to enter the interior of the protective fence.

[0069] Specifically, a gate is set up at the protective fence, and an access control system is installed on the gate, allowing only authorized personnel to enter.

[0070] Based on the aforementioned mobile battery swapping station, this invention also proposes a battery swapping management system, which is applied to the mobile battery swapping station and includes:

[0071] The power supply module, installed on the mobile battery swapping station, is used to supply power to the battery swapping robot 2 and the monitoring room 6;

[0072] The communication module, installed on the mobile battery swapping station, adopts 5G and LoRa dual-mode communication to wirelessly interact with the battery delivery vehicle 1 and the vehicle to be swapped, optimizes the route planning of the battery delivery vehicle 1 and the vehicle to be swapped, displays the status of the swapped battery, energy consumption data and fault alarm information in the battery delivery vehicle 1 through a visualization system, and predicts the battery swapping needs of the vehicle to be swapped.

[0073] The monitoring module collects real-time data on the energy consumption of the battery swapping robot 2 and the battery charge level of the battery in the battery delivery vehicle 1.

[0074] Furthermore, all modules included in the battery swapping management system can be installed in the monitoring room 6.

[0075] The power supply module includes:

[0076] The main power supply unit, installed on the mobile battery swapping station, is used to power the battery swapping platform, including but not limited to powering the battery swapping robot 2, and can also power the control room. The main power supply unit can be connected to the mains power supply via cable or connected to the battery delivery vehicle for power supply. When the main power supply unit is powered by the battery delivery vehicle, it includes a DC-AC conversion module, which can be installed on the battery swapping platform or on the battery delivery vehicle.

[0077] A backup power supply unit is installed on the mobile battery swapping station. The backup power supply unit supplies power to the battery swapping platform when the main power supply unit and the battery swapping platform are disconnected, or when the main power supply unit is unable to provide sufficient power to the battery swapping platform.

[0078] When the main power supply unit's power level drops below 20%, the backup power supply unit seamlessly switches over and issues a low power alarm signal.

[0079] This invention provides a mobile battery swapping station and management system, in which a battery swapping vehicle is located on one side of a battery swapping robot 2, and a battery delivery vehicle 1 is located on the other side of the robot 2. The battery delivery vehicle 1 serves as a battery storage device. The vehicle to be swapped and the battery delivery vehicle 1 can wirelessly interact with the communication module on the mobile battery swapping station, and automatically swap batteries under the operation of the battery swapping robot 2. After completing the battery swap, the battery delivery vehicle 1 leaves, and another fully charged battery delivery vehicle 1 is driven in to serve as a battery storage device, continuously ensuring the battery replenishment needs of the vehicle to be swapped. After the depleted battery delivery vehicle 1 leaves, it is replenished through a charging pile or battery swapping station. The battery swapping platform can eliminate the need for a dedicated storage location for swapped batteries, as all battery delivery is handled by the battery delivery vehicle, thereby significantly reducing the construction and maintenance costs of the mobile battery swapping station.

[0080] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
