Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of power exchange cabinets, and in particular to a guide structure of a power exchange cabinet. Background Art

[0002] As one of the important infrastructures for green urban travel, the electric vehicle battery swap cabinet integrates advanced Internet of Things and automation technologies to provide electric vehicle users with a convenient and efficient energy supply solution. Its working principle involves users quickly opening the cabinet door by scanning a QR code, taking out a fully charged battery and replacing it in their electric vehicle, and at the same time placing the exhausted battery in a designated compartment for charging. The whole process takes only a few seconds, greatly improving the charging efficiency.

[0003] However, there is a practical challenge in designing a battery swap cabinet: the problem of matching the size of the battery and the battery swap compartment. In theory, if the battery swap compartment is exactly the same size as the electric vehicle battery, although it can ensure that the battery is placed firmly, in actual operation, due to the heavy weight of the battery, it is difficult for users to accurately align the battery with the battery swap compartment and put the battery in. On the contrary, if the battery swap compartment is designed to be spacious, although it is convenient for users to put the battery in, it may cause the battery to not be accurately aligned with the charging port, affecting the charging effect, or even causing poor contact, reducing the overall service experience and safety. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a guide structure for a battery swap cabinet, which solves the technical problem of the existing battery swap cabinet on how to ensure that the battery is accurately connected to the charging interface so that users can swap batteries conveniently.

[0005] According to a guide structure of a power swap cabinet described in an embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of power swap compartments are evenly distributed in a rectangular shape on the power swap cabinet, an opening and closing door for switching is provided on one side of the power swap compartment, a guide strip is provided inside the side wall of the power swap compartment, the length direction of the guide strip is aligned with the opening and closing door, a guide protection edge is provided near the opening and closing door of the power swap compartment, the length direction of the guide protection edge is perpendicular to the length direction of the guide strip, and the guide protection edge is connected to the guide strip.

[0006] The technical principle of the present utility model is: the volume of the battery swap compartment is designed to be spacious to facilitate the placement of batteries, and a guide bar is designed. After a part of the battery enters the battery swap compartment, it only needs to be pushed. At this time, whether the volume of the battery swap compartment is spacious or not has no effect on the placement of the battery. At this time, because of the existence of the guide bar and because the battery is provided with a corresponding guide groove, the guide bar moves left and right during the process of pushing the battery in. The guide bar is inserted into the guide groove to ensure the accuracy of the connection between the battery and the charging interface in the battery swap compartment.

[0007] At the same time, the guide protection edge is used to guide the battery when it just enters the battery swap compartment, and also plays a role in protecting the inner wall of the battery swap compartment. Because the battery is heavy, it is easy to bump into it when it just enters the battery swap compartment. After adding the guide protection edge, it can effectively protect the inner wall of the battery swap compartment near the opening and closing door.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects: by combining the guide protection edge with the guide strip, it solves the technical problem of the existing power exchange cabinet on how to ensure that the battery and the charging interface are accurately connected so that users can easily exchange batteries.

[0009] Furthermore, the end of the guide strip close to the opening and closing door is configured as a guide section, and the thickness of the guide section gradually increases from the end close to the opening and closing door.

[0010] Furthermore, the guide protection edge is provided with a convex edge on the side close to the opening and closing door, and the convex edge is inclined toward the outside of the battery swap compartment.

[0011] Furthermore, a slot is provided at the connection between the guide protection edge and the guide bar, and one end of the guide bar is inserted into the slot.

[0012] Furthermore, the upper surface of the guide protection edge slot is higher than the upper surface of the guide section at the thinnest part.

[0013] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the side wall of the battery swap compartment, the guide bar is fixed in the groove, and the upper surface of the guide bar protrudes from the groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the guide strip and the guide protection edge are arranged on the inner wall of the battery swap compartment close to the bottom of the battery swap cabinet.

[0015] Furthermore, a raised rib is provided on the edge of the opening and closing door, the raised edge is located on the inner side of the raised rib, and a rubber layer is provided on the raised rib.

[0016] Furthermore, the guide bar is made of polyethylene and is fixed in the battery swap compartment with screws.

[0017] Furthermore, the guide protection edge is made of aluminum alloy, and the guide protection edge is fixed in the battery swap compartment with screws. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0024] The technical solution of the present utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] like Figure 1-2 The guide structure of the battery swap cabinet shown in the figure has a plurality of battery swap compartments 10 evenly distributed in a rectangular shape on the battery swap cabinet, an opening and closing door 20 for switching is hingedly provided on one side of the battery swap compartment 10, a guide strip 30 is fixed with screws in the side wall of the battery swap compartment 10, the guide strip 30 is made of polyethylene, and the length direction of the guide strip 30 is aligned with the opening and closing door 20, and a guide protective edge 40 is fixed with screws near the opening and closing door 20 of the battery swap compartment 10, the guide protective edge 40 is made of aluminum alloy, and the length direction of the guide protective edge 40 is perpendicular to the length direction of the guide strip 30, and the guide protective edge 40 is connected to the guide strip 30, and when the battery enters the battery swap compartment 10 for charging, it can smoothly transition from the guide protective edge 40 to the guide bar 30.

[0026] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the guide bar 30 is configured as a guide section 31 at one end close to the opening and closing door 20, and the thickness of the guide section 31 gradually increases from the end close to the opening and closing door 20, and can be a circular arc surface or an inclined surface. At the same time, the upper surface of the guide bar 30 to the two sides are also configured as circular arc surfaces, so that the battery can be more easily inserted into the guide section 31 during the pushing process.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the guide protection edge 40 is integrally formed with a convex edge 41 on one side close to the opening and closing door 20. The convex edge 41 is inclined toward the outside of the battery swap compartment 10 to form an opening that opens outward, making it easier to insert the battery.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, a slot 42 is provided at the connection between the guide protection edge 40 and the guide strip 30, and one end of the guide strip 30 is inserted into the slot 42. Specifically, the upper surface of the guide protection edge 40 at the slot 42 is higher than the upper surface of the thinnest part of the guide section 31, so that the transition between the guide protection edge 40 and the guide strip 30 is smoother.

[0029] like Figure 2-4As shown, the guide strip 30 and the guide protection edge 40 are arranged on the inner wall of the battery swap compartment 10 near the bottom of the battery swap cabinet. Specifically, a groove 11 is provided on the side wall of the battery swap compartment 10, and the guide strip 30 is fixed in the groove 11. The upper surface of the guide strip 30 exceeds the groove 11, thereby reducing the contact between the battery and the inner wall of the battery swap compartment 10, thereby protecting the inner wall of the battery swap compartment 10.

[0030] like Figure 3 , 5 As shown, a raised rib 21 is provided at the edge of the opening and closing door 20, and a convex edge 41 is located inside the raised rib 21. When the opening and closing door 20 is closed, there is a position to accommodate the convex edge 41. A rubber layer 22 is provided on the raised rib 21 to play a waterproof and sealing role.

[0031] In the present application, the guide protection edge 40 and the guide strip 30 not only play a guiding role, but also have the function of protecting the inner wall of the battery swap compartment 10. Because the battery needs to be taken out and put in frequently, it will frequently rub against the inner wall of the battery swap compartment 10, which will cause the inner wall of the battery swap compartment 10 to wear quickly. The guide protection edge 40 and the guide strip 30 reduce the friction between the battery and the battery swap compartment 10, which helps to directly replace the guide protection edge 40 and the guide strip 30 after they are worn. However, if the battery swap compartment 10 is worn, the entire battery swap compartment 10 needs to be replaced, which effectively extends the service life of the battery swap compartment 10.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
