The transfer of the battery pack by manually operating the lifting device cannot guarantee the transfer accuracy of the battery pack. The battery pack is prone to scratches, collisions and other accidents with the battery rack during the lifting process, which can easily cause damage to the battery pack and the battery rack, and also increase the difficulty of operation and labor costs. In addition, the lifting device is prone to clamping damage to the battery pack during the transfer of the battery pack.
