[0024] In order to more clearly understand the technical means of the utility model and implement it according to the contents of the specification, the specific implementation methods of the utility model are further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the utility model but are not used to limit the scope of the utility model.

[0025] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the numbers used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so as to describe the embodiments of the present application described herein.

[0026] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships recorded in the embodiments and shown in the accompanying drawings, or are the directions or positional relationships in which the utility model product is usually placed when in use. They are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present utility model.

[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the utility model specifically relates to a battery transport mechanism for a battery swap station, comprising two inlet and outlet legs 100, the upper ends of the two inlet and outlet legs 100 are provided with a roller frame, and the roller frame fixes the two inlet and outlet legs 100 to form a frame;

[0028] The roller frame includes a bearing beam 200 and a plurality of rollers 221 disposed on the bearing beam 200 . The bearing beam 200 is provided with a plurality of supporting plates 220 . The plurality of supporting plates 220 are disposed along the length direction of the bearing beam 200 , and a groove 210 is formed between the plurality of supporting plates 220 .

[0029] The plurality of rollers 221 are detachably mounted on the support plate 220 and extend out of the upper surface of the support plate 220 .

[0030] It should be noted that, there are two groups of in-and-out legs 100, and the roller frame is fixed to the upper ends of the two in-and-out legs 100, and the two in-and-out legs 100 are connected by the roller frame to form a frame capable of placing the battery pack;

[0031] In addition, the drum frame is composed of a load-bearing beam 200 and a support plate 220 assembly, and the load-bearing beam 200 and the support plate 220 are an integrally formed structure, and the upper end surface of the load-bearing beam 200 is lower than the upper end surface of the support plate 220. This design forms a groove 210 between the two support plates 220. The groove 210 is the entry and exit position for the forklift fork arm, which is convenient for the forklift to place the battery pack on the support plate 220. The fork arm of the forklift is located in the groove 210, which facilitates the removal of the fork arm without interfering with the battery pack.

[0032] Furthermore, the support plate 220 is detachably provided with a roller 221 . When the battery pack is placed on the support plate 220 , the bottom of the battery pack abuts against the roller 221 , and the battery pack can move linearly along the length direction of the supporting beam 200 through the roller 221 .

[0033] Three rollers 221 are defined as a group. There are three groups of rollers 221 . Each group of rollers 221 corresponds to the support plate 220 one by one. By providing multiple groups of rollers 221 , the battery pack can move more smoothly.

[0034] A positioning groove is provided at the end of the support plate 220, and the roller 221 is detachably connected to the positioning groove through the connecting end. Personnel can add or reduce the number of rollers 221 according to actual needs, and subsequent maintenance of the rollers 221 is convenient.

[0035] The groove 210 is in an inverted trapezoidal structure and is the entry and exit position of the fork arm of the forklift, facilitating the movement of the fork arm.

[0036] Casters 110 are provided at the bottom of the in-and-out warehouse legs 100 to facilitate the transportation of the battery pack to the battery warehouse, which is more convenient and faster than transportation by personnel or external equipment.

[0037] It also includes a positioning column 310 disposed at the end of the in-and-out bin leg 100 , and a positioning pin 300 is detachably disposed on the upper end of the positioning column 310 .

[0038] Among them, the bottom of the battery pack can be further supported by the positioning column 310. At the same time, when the forklift places the battery pack on the support plate 220, the personnel pass the positioning pin 300 through the battery pack and connect it with the positioning column 310 to complete the positioning of the battery pack and prevent the battery pack from falling during transportation.

[0039] Reinforcing ribs are provided between the load-bearing crossbeam 200 and the inlet and outlet legs 100 , and the supporting force of the load-bearing crossbeam 200 is increased by the reinforcing ribs, thereby further ensuring the safety of the battery pack during transportation.

[0040] The above embodiments are only specific implementation methods of the present invention, which are used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention rather than to limit it. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Although the present invention is described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that any technician familiar with the technical field can still modify the technical solution recorded in the aforementioned embodiments within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, or can easily think of changes, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein; and these modifications, changes or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solution deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention, and should all be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
