Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of battery replacement technology, and in particular to a deicing device and a battery replacement station. Background Art

[0002] When a vehicle is driving in a low temperature environment, such as when the vehicle is driving in rainy and snowy weather, the snow on the road will splash onto the chassis of the vehicle, causing the chassis of the vehicle to freeze. However, when the vehicle needs to replace the battery, the battery may be covered with ice and cannot be removed, resulting in battery replacement failure. How to de-ice the battery is an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present application provides a deicing device and a battery swap station, which can enhance deicing efficiency and improve deicing effect.

[0004] In a first aspect, the present application provides a deicing device, which includes a carrying platform, a deicing mechanism, and a plurality of adjustment mechanisms. The deicing mechanism is connected to the carrying platform. The plurality of adjustment mechanisms are connected to the carrying platform and support the carrying platform, and the plurality of adjustment mechanisms are configured to adjust the posture of the carrying platform by actuation.

[0005] When de-icing parts (such as batteries) need to be de-iced, the de-icing equipment can be moved to the lower side of the ice layer, and the de-icing mechanism can be pressed against the ice layer; by moving the de-icing mechanism, the ice layer can be quickly removed. When the de-icing parts are tilted, the posture of the carrying platform can be adjusted by adjusting multiple adjustment mechanisms, so that the de-icing mechanism is in close contact with the ice layer, reducing the problem of a large distance between the de-icing mechanism and the ice layer caused by the tilt of the de-icing parts, improving the de-icing efficiency, and improving the de-icing effect.

[0006] In some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism includes an elastic member, and the elastic member is configured to elastically deform when pressure is applied to the upper side of the support platform to adjust the posture of the support platform. When the de-icing mechanism is in contact with the ice layer, the ice layer applies pressure to the support platform through the de-icing mechanism. When the pressure is transmitted to the elastic member, the elastic member elastically deforms under the action of the pressure. If the battery has problems such as tilt, the pressure at different positions of the support platform will be different. The elastic members of multiple adjustment mechanisms can deform to different degrees according to the different pressures, so that the support platform can be adaptively tilted, thereby reducing the problem of large spacing between the de-icing mechanism and the ice layer caused by the tilt of the battery, improving the de-icing efficiency, and improving the de-icing effect.

[0007] In some embodiments, the elastic member includes a spring, which has high strength, stable structure and low cost.

[0008] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism includes a deicing member and a first driving member, the deicing member is located on the upper side of the carrying platform, the first driving member is connected to the deicing member, and the first driving member is used to drive the deicing member to rotate or drive the deicing member to vibrate up and down. The first driving member can drive the deicing member to rotate or vibrate, so that the deicing member impacts the ice layer to achieve rapid deicing. The embodiment of the present application does not require manual power, can improve deicing efficiency, and realize automation of deicing.

[0009] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism includes a deicing member, which is located on the upper side of the carrying platform. The deicing member includes a cylinder and a plurality of cones protruding from the outer circumference of the cylinder, and the cylinder is configured to be rotatable. The ends of the cones are relatively sharp, which can quickly penetrate the ice layer; by rotating the cylinder, the cones can cut the ice layer, so that the ice layer breaks and falls off, thereby achieving rapid deicing.

[0010] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism includes a shaft and a plurality of deicing parts, the shaft extends along a first direction and is located on the upper side of the bearing platform, and the plurality of deicing parts are arranged on the shaft at intervals along the first direction, and the first direction intersects with the height direction of the deicing device. By setting up a plurality of deicing parts, the deicing efficiency can be improved. The shaft is connected to the plurality of deicing parts, so that the plurality of deicing parts can work synchronously. Compared with the scheme of setting up a single large-sized deicing part, the scheme of setting up a plurality of small-sized deicing parts can reduce the total weight of the deicing equipment and reduce the difficulty of forming a single deicing part; in addition, after a single deicing part is worn, it only needs to be replaced accordingly, thereby reducing maintenance costs.

[0011] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism is configured to be movable along a second direction, the second direction intersecting with the height direction of the deicing device. The deicing mechanism also includes a shovel, which is arranged on one side of the deicing member along the second direction. When the deicing mechanism moves along the second direction, the deicing member and the shovel can process the ice layer twice, thereby improving the deicing effect.

[0012] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism further includes a brush, which is disposed on the side of the blade away from the deicing member. The brush can remove impurities such as ice debris, mud, snow, etc. remaining on the surface of the battery, thereby cleaning the battery and improving the deicing effect.

[0013] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism further includes a blowing member, which is disposed on a side of the shovel blade away from the deicing member. The blowing member can be connected to an air source to blow air toward the battery. After the shovel blade removes the ice layer, the blowing member can blow air toward the battery to clean the ice debris or mud and sand remaining on the surface of the battery.

[0014] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism includes a plurality of deicing parts, and the plurality of deicing parts are arranged at intervals along a first direction, and the first direction, the second direction, and the height direction are perpendicular to each other. Among the plurality of deicing parts, the two deicing parts located at the two ends are respectively a first deicing part and a second deicing part, and the first deicing part is provided with a shovel on one side along the second direction, and the second deicing part is provided with a shovel on one side along the second direction. By providing a shovel corresponding to the first deicing part and a shovel corresponding to the second deicing part, the deicing effect of the edge area of ​​the battery can be improved. The deicing device of the embodiment of the present application is suitable for scenes with high requirements for deicing the edge area.

[0015] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism is located on the upper side of the carrying platform and is movably arranged on the carrying platform along a second direction, and the second direction intersects with the height direction of the deicing device. The deicing device also includes a second driving member, which is connected to the deicing mechanism and is used to drive the deicing mechanism to move along the second direction. The deicing mechanism can translate along the second direction to increase the deicing area of ​​the deicing mechanism and improve the deicing efficiency. The second driving member can replace manual labor to achieve automation of deicing.

[0016] In some embodiments, the deicing device includes a support seat, a transmission assembly and a third driving member, wherein the support seat is located at the lower side of the load-bearing platform, the transmission assembly connects the support seat and the load-bearing platform, and the third driving member is connected to the transmission assembly, and the third driving member is used to drive the load-bearing platform to rise and fall through the transmission assembly. A plurality of adjustment mechanisms are connected to the support seat.

[0017] When deicing is required, the deicing device is first moved to the lower side of the ice layer; then, the third driving member drives the bearing platform to rise through the transmission assembly so that the deicing mechanism can contact the ice layer. By providing the third driving member and the transmission assembly, ice layers of different heights can be removed, thereby improving the applicability of the deicing device.

[0018] In some embodiments, the deicing equipment further includes a plurality of detection mechanisms, which are disposed on the upper side of the carrying platform and are spaced apart from each other, and are used to detect the relative position of the carrying platform and the part to be deiced.

[0019] During the process of the third driving member lifting the carrying platform through the transmission member, multiple detection mechanisms can detect the relative position of the carrying platform and the part to be de-iced, so as to determine whether the carrying platform has moved into place; after the positions of the carrying platform corresponding to the multiple detection mechanisms have moved into place, the de-icing mechanism starts and begins to de-ice.

[0020] In some embodiments, the end of the detection mechanism away from the carrying platform has a tapered portion, which can penetrate the ice layer and abut against the battery; when the tapered portions of multiple detection mechanisms abut against the battery, the deicing mechanism is activated and begins to de-ice.

[0021] In some embodiments, at least two detection mechanisms are arranged diagonally. Arranging at least two detection mechanisms diagonally can improve detection accuracy; when the two diagonal detection mechanisms detect that the carrying platform has moved into place, the posture of the carrying platform is close to the posture of the battery, and the deicing mechanism has a better deicing effect.

[0022] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism includes a plurality of deicing parts, and the plurality of deicing parts are arranged at intervals along the first direction; among the plurality of deicing parts, the two deicing parts located at both ends are respectively the first deicing part and the second deicing part. The plurality of detection mechanisms include two first detection mechanisms and two second detection mechanisms, and in the second direction, the two first detection mechanisms are respectively located on both sides of the first deicing part, and the second detection mechanisms are respectively located on both sides of the second deicing part, and the first detection mechanism and the second detection mechanism are arranged along the first direction. The first direction, the second direction and the height direction of the deicing equipment are perpendicular to each other. After the position of the bearing platform corresponding to the two first detection mechanisms is moved into place, the first deicing part removes the ice layer located between the two first detection mechanisms; after the position of the bearing platform corresponding to the two second detection mechanisms is moved into place, the second deicing part removes the ice layer located between the two second detection mechanisms. The embodiments of the present application can improve the deicing effect of the edge area of ​​the battery.

[0023] In some embodiments, the deicing device further comprises a plurality of positioning plates, at least two of which are respectively located on both sides of the carrying platform along the first direction; in the height direction of the deicing device, the upper ends of the positioning plates are higher than the deicing mechanism. The deicing device is configured to be movable along the second direction. The first direction, the second direction and the height direction are perpendicular to each other. When the deicing device is moved along the second direction, the two positioning plates can be moved to both sides of the battery along the first direction, thereby positioning the deicing mechanism so that the deicing mechanism can be opposite to the ice layer on the lower side of the battery.

[0024] In some embodiments, the deicing device includes a plurality of wheel assemblies, the plurality of wheel assemblies are connected to a plurality of adjustment mechanisms in a one-to-one correspondence, and each wheel assembly supports a corresponding adjustment mechanism. By providing a plurality of wheel assemblies, the resistance to movement of the deicing device can be reduced and the deicing efficiency can be improved. The deicing device can be manually pushed and has the characteristics of convenient movement and rapid transfer.

[0025] In some embodiments, the deicing device includes a mounting plate connected to the load-bearing platform, and the wheel assembly includes a mounting seat located at the lower side of the mounting plate and a wheel rotatably connected to the mounting seat. The adjustment mechanism is connected between the mounting plate and the mounting seat. By providing the mounting plate and the mounting seat, the stability of the adjustment mechanism can be improved.

[0026] In some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism includes a fourth drive member, and the fourth drive member is used to drive the load-bearing platform to rise and fall. The adjustment mechanism actively controls the posture adjustment of the load-bearing platform. If the battery has problems such as tilt, multiple fourth drives adjust the height of different positions of the load-bearing platform to make the load-bearing platform tilt adaptively, thereby reducing the problem of a large distance between the deicing mechanism and the ice layer caused by the tilt of the battery, improving the deicing efficiency and the deicing effect.

[0027] In a second aspect, the present application provides a battery swap station, which includes a deicing device and a battery swap compartment provided according to any embodiment of the first aspect. The deicing device is used to remove the ice layer attached to the battery of the vehicle. The battery swap compartment is used to replace the battery of the vehicle. Before the vehicle enters the battery swap compartment for battery swap, the deicing device can remove the ice layer on the lower side of the battery, thereby reducing the risk of battery swap failure and improving battery swap efficiency.

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application or the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order or a primary and secondary relationship.

[0053] Reference to "embodiment" in this application means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0054] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", and "attached" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0055] The term "and / or" in this application is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this application generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0056] In the embodiments of the present application, the same reference numerals represent the same components, and for the sake of brevity, detailed descriptions of the same components are omitted in different embodiments. It should be understood that the thickness, length, width and other dimensions of various components in the embodiments of the present application shown in the drawings, as well as the overall thickness, length, width and other dimensions of the integrated device are only exemplary descriptions and should not constitute any limitation to the present application.

[0057] The term "plurality" used in the present application refers to two or more (including two).

[0058] In the embodiments of the present application, "parallel" includes not only the absolutely parallel situation, but also the roughly parallel situation conventionally recognized in engineering; at the same time, "vertical" includes not only the absolutely vertical situation, but also the roughly vertical situation conventionally recognized in engineering.

[0059] With the development of new energy technology, more and more devices use batteries. When the vehicle runs out of power, it is often connected to a charging device to replenish power. For example, electric vehicles can be connected to a charging pile for charging. Charging takes a long time and affects the user experience. Compared with charging, replacing the battery can replenish power faster.

[0060] When a vehicle is driving in a low temperature environment, such as when the vehicle is driving in rainy and snowy weather, the snow on the road will splash onto the chassis of the vehicle, causing the chassis of the vehicle to freeze. However, when the vehicle needs to replace the battery, the battery may be covered by ice and cannot be removed, resulting in a failure in battery replacement.

[0061] In the related art, workers usually use de-icing equipment to de-ice the battery. However, the vehicle may tilt or deflect due to various reasons (such as ground flatness, tire pressure, heavy load, no load, etc.), which will cause the battery to tilt or deflect. It is difficult for the de-icing equipment to adjust its posture to adapt to the tilt of the battery, which will result in low de-icing efficiency and unclean de-icing, thus affecting the de-icing effect and reducing the efficiency of battery replacement.

[0062] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a deicing device, which can adjust its own posture according to the posture of the battery, so as to quickly de-ice, improve the de-icing efficiency, and improve the de-icing effect.

[0063] The deicing device disclosed in the embodiment of the present application can be used to deice the battery of the vehicle, and can also be used to deice other positions of the vehicle. Of course, the deicing device can also be used to deice other equipment, buildings, etc. that are prone to ice.

[0064] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a deicing device provided in some embodiments of the present application; Figure 2 for Figure 1 An enlarged schematic diagram at the circle A; Figure 3 for Figure 1 An enlarged schematic diagram at the circle B; Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a detection mechanism of a deicing device provided in some embodiments of the present application; Figure 5 Schematic diagram of deicing equipment and vehicles provided for some embodiments of the present application; Figure 6 A schematic diagram of a battery.

[0065] Reference Figures 1 to 6 The embodiment of the present application provides a deicing device 1, which includes a carrying platform 10, a deicing mechanism 11 and a plurality of adjustment mechanisms 12. The deicing mechanism 11 is connected to the carrying platform 10. The plurality of adjustment mechanisms 12 are connected to the carrying platform 10 and support the carrying platform 10, and the plurality of adjustment mechanisms 12 are configured to adjust the posture of the carrying platform 10 by actuation.

[0066] The deicing mechanism 11 can be used to remove ice. The deicing mechanism 11 can remove ice in a variety of ways, for example, the deicing mechanism 11 can remove ice on the deiced part by vibration, rotation, cutting, scraping, spraying high-temperature liquid or other methods.

[0067] The de-icing mechanism 11 can work automatically or manually.

[0068] The adjustment mechanism 12 may be directly connected to the carrying platform 10 , or may be indirectly connected to the carrying platform 10 .

[0069] The actuation of the adjustment mechanism 12 may be movement, rotation, deformation or other actions.

[0070] Exemplarily, the adjustment of the posture of the carrying platform 10 by the multiple adjustment mechanisms 12 may include but is not limited to at least one of tilting, lifting and rotating.

[0071] When it is necessary to de-ice the de-icing part (such as the battery 2), the de-icing device 1 can be moved to the lower side of the ice layer, and the de-icing mechanism 11 can be pressed against the ice layer; by moving the de-icing mechanism 11, the ice layer can be quickly removed. When the de-icing part is tilted (for example, the battery 2 is tilted due to factors such as the tire pressure of the vehicle 3), the posture of the supporting platform 10 can be adjusted by adjusting the multiple adjustment mechanisms 12, so that the de-icing mechanism 11 is in close contact with the ice layer, reducing the problem of a large distance between the de-icing mechanism 11 and the ice layer caused by the tilt of the de-icing part, improving the de-icing efficiency, and improving the de-icing effect.

[0072] In order to simplify the description, the battery 2 of the vehicle 3 is used as the part to be de-iced in the following description.

[0073] In some embodiments, the de-icing apparatus 1 may be used to clear ice from a battery 2 under the floor of a heavy truck.

[0074] In some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism 12 includes an elastic member 121 , and the elastic member 121 is configured to elastically deform when the upper side of the carrying platform 10 is pressed, so as to adjust the posture of the carrying platform 10 .

[0075] The adjustment mechanism 12 may include one elastic member 121 , or may include a plurality of elastic members 121 .

[0076] The elastic member 121 may include a spring, a rubber member, a silicone member, or other members having an elastic mechanism or made of an elastic material.

[0077] When the de-icing mechanism 11 contacts the ice layer, the ice layer applies pressure to the carrying platform 10 through the de-icing mechanism 11. When the pressure is transmitted to the elastic member 121, the elastic member 121 is elastically deformed under the pressure. If the battery 2 is tilted or other problems occur, the pressures on different positions of the carrying platform 10 will be different. The elastic members 121 of the multiple adjustment mechanisms 12 can be deformed to different degrees according to the different pressures, so that the carrying platform 10 can be adaptively tilted, thereby reducing the problem of a large distance between the de-icing mechanism 11 and the ice layer caused by the tilt of the battery 2, improving the de-icing efficiency, and improving the de-icing effect.

[0078] In some embodiments, the elastic member 121 includes a spring, which has high strength, stable structure, and low cost.

[0079] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism 11 includes a deicing component 111 and a first driving component 112. The deicing component 111 is located on the upper side of the supporting platform 10. The first driving component 112 is connected to the deicing component 111. The first driving component 112 is used to drive the deicing component 111 to rotate or drive the deicing component 111 to vibrate up and down.

[0080] The first driving member 112 is a component that provides power for the de-icing member 111 to work. For example, the first driving member 112 may include a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, a motor or other power components.

[0081] The deicing member 111 may be one or more. For example, the deicing member 111 may be more than one; the multiple deicing members 111 may be synchronously driven by one first driving member 112 or independently driven by multiple first driving members 112 .

[0082] The de-icing member 111 can remove the ice layer on the battery 2 by mechanical impact, and it can adopt multiple structures. Exemplarily, the de-icing member 111 includes a cone structure, a hammer structure, a knife structure or other structures.

[0083] The first driving member 112 can drive the deicing member 111 to rotate or vibrate, so that the deicing member 111 impacts the ice layer to achieve rapid deicing. The embodiment of the present application does not require manual power, can improve deicing efficiency, and achieve automatic deicing.

[0084] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism 11 includes a deicing member 111, which is located on the upper side of the carrying platform 10. The deicing member 111 includes a cylinder 1111 and a plurality of cones 1112 protruding from the outer circumference of the cylinder 1111, and the cylinder 1111 is configured to be rotatable.

[0085] Exemplarily, the cone 1112 may be a pyramid, a cone, a truncated cone, a truncated cone or other sharp structures. For example, the pyramid may be a triangular pyramid, a quadrangular pyramid, a pentagonal pyramid or a hexagonal pyramid.

[0086] For example, the number, distribution density, size, etc. of the cones 1112 can be flexibly selected according to the thickness of the ice layer. For thicker ice layers, a deicing member 111 with a large cone 1112 height and high density can be used.

[0087] The end of the cone 1112 is relatively sharp, and it can quickly penetrate into the ice layer; by rotating the cylinder 1111, the cone 1112 can cut the ice layer, causing the ice layer to break and fall, thereby achieving rapid de-icing.

[0088] In some embodiments, a plurality of cones 1112 are arranged in an array on the outer circumference of the cylinder 1111. Exemplarily, at least two cones 1112 are arranged in a row in the first direction Y to form a cone row, and the plurality of cone rows are arranged along the circumference of the cylinder.

[0089] In some embodiments, the first driving member 112 is connected to the cylinder 1111, and the first driving member 112 can be used to drive the cylinder 1111 to rotate. Optionally, the first driving member 112 includes a motor.

[0090] In some embodiments, the de-icing mechanism 11 includes a shaft 113 and a plurality of de-icing components 111. The shaft 113 extends along a first direction Y and is located on the upper side of the supporting platform 10. The plurality of de-icing components 111 are arranged at intervals on the shaft 113 along the first direction Y. The first direction Y intersects with the height direction Z of the de-icing equipment.

[0091] The shapes of the plurality of deicing elements 111 may be the same or different.

[0092] In the first direction Y, the plurality of deicing elements 111 may be arranged at equal intervals or at unequal intervals.

[0093] By providing multiple deicing parts 111, the deicing efficiency can be improved. The shaft 113 connects multiple deicing parts 111, so that the multiple deicing parts 111 can work synchronously. Compared with the scheme of providing a single large-sized deicing part, the scheme of providing multiple small-sized deicing parts 111 can reduce the total weight of the deicing device 1 and reduce the difficulty of forming a single deicing part 111; in addition, after a single deicing part 111 is worn, it only needs to be replaced accordingly, thereby reducing maintenance costs.

[0094] In some embodiments, the cylinders 1111 of the plurality of deicing components 111 are sleeved on the shaft 113 and fixed to the shaft 113 .

[0095] In some embodiments, the first driving member 112 is connected to the shaft 113. Optionally, the first driving member 112 includes a motor, and the deicing device 1 further includes a reducer, and the motor is connected to the shaft 113 via the reducer.

[0096] The first driving member 112 can synchronously drive the plurality of deicing members 111 to rotate via the shaft 113 .

[0097] In some embodiments, the de-icing mechanism 11 is configured to be movable along a second direction X, which intersects the height direction Z.

[0098] Exemplarily, the movement of the de-icing mechanism 11 along the second direction X may be driven manually or by other power components.

[0099] The deicing mechanism 11 can translate along the second direction X to increase the deicing area of ​​the deicing mechanism 11 and improve the deicing efficiency.

[0100] In some embodiments, the first direction Y, the second direction X, and the height direction Z are perpendicular to each other. It is noted that when the adjustment mechanism 12 adjusts the carrying platform 10 to tilt the carrying platform 10, the first direction Y may not be perpendicular to the height direction Z, and the second direction X may not be perpendicular to the height direction Z.

[0101] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism 11 further includes a blade 114 , and the blade 114 is disposed on one side of the deicing member 111 along the second direction X.

[0102] The number of the scraper 114 may be one or more.

[0103] When the deicing mechanism 11 moves along the second direction X, the deicing member 111 and the blade 114 can process the ice layer twice, thereby improving the deicing effect.

[0104] In some embodiments, the blade 114 is located downstream of the deicing member 111. In other words, when the deicing mechanism 11 moves along the second direction X to de-ice, the deicing member 111 passes through the ice layer first, and the blade 114 passes through the ice layer later.

[0105] The cone 1112 of the deicing member 111 can first break ice and remove ice, and the blade 114 can then remove the ice layer remaining on the battery 2, thereby improving the deicing effect.

[0106] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism 11 further includes a brush 115, which is disposed on a side of the blade 114 away from the deicing member 111. Exemplarily, when the deicing mechanism 11 moves along the second direction X and deices, the brush 115 is located downstream of the blade 114.

[0107] The number of the brush 115 may be one or more.

[0108] The brush 115 can remove impurities such as ice debris, mud, snow, etc. remaining on the surface of the battery 2, thereby cleaning the battery 2 and improving the de-icing effect.

[0109] The number and position of the brushes 115 and the blades 114 can be flexibly selected according to deicing requirements.

[0110] In some embodiments, there may be a plurality of scrapers 114. For example, each scraper 114 may be provided with a corresponding brush 115, or some scrapers 114 may be provided with a corresponding brush 115.

[0111] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism 11 includes a plurality of deicing components 111, and the plurality of deicing components 111 are arranged at intervals along the first direction Y, and the first direction Y, the second direction X, and the height direction Z are perpendicular to each other. Among the plurality of deicing components 111, the two deicing components 111 located at the two ends are respectively a first deicing component 111a and a second deicing component 111b, and a blade 114 is provided on one side of the first deicing component 111a along the second direction X, and a blade 114 is provided on one side of the first deicing component 111a along the second direction X.

[0112] By providing the scraper 114 corresponding to the first deicing member 111a and the scraper 114 corresponding to the second deicing member 111b, the deicing effect of the edge area of ​​the battery 2 can be improved. The deicing device 1 of the embodiment of the present application is suitable for scenes with high requirements for deicing of edge areas.

[0113] In some embodiments, the first deicing member 111a, one blade 114, and one brush 115 may form one deicing assembly, and the second deicing member 111b, another blade 114, and another brush 115 may form another deicing assembly.

[0114] In some embodiments, each deicing component 111 is provided with a corresponding blade 114, which can improve the deicing effect. In other embodiments, in the deicing mechanism 11, only the first deicing component 111a and the second deicing component 111b are provided with a corresponding blade 114, and other deicing components 111 are not provided with a corresponding blade 114, which can simplify the structure of the deicing device 1.

[0115] In some embodiments, the battery 2 includes a box 2a and a locking member 2b mounted on the box 2a, and the locking member 2b is used to connect to the chassis of the vehicle 3 so that the battery 2 is locked to the chassis. When replacing the battery 2, the lock between the locking member 2b and the chassis can be released, thereby realizing the removal of the battery 2.

[0116] Exemplarily, the locking member 2b is disposed at both ends of the box body 2a, for example, the locking member 2b is arranged at both ends of the box body 2a along the width direction. During deicing, the width direction of the box body 2a may be parallel to the first direction Y.

[0117] During deicing, the first deicing component 111a and the second deicing component 111b can be used to remove the ice layer covering the locking component 2b, and the shovel 114 and the brush 115 can further clean the ice layer to expose the locking component 2b, which is helpful for the execution of the battery replacement action.

[0118] The other deicing components 111 other than the first deicing component 111a and the second deicing component 111b can be used to clear the ice layer at the bottom of the box body 2a. The scraper 114 may not be provided on one side of these deicing components 111, thereby reducing the risk of the hard scraper 114 scratching the box body 2a.

[0119] In some embodiments, in the height direction Z, the uppermost end of the blade 114 is close to the uppermost end of the deicing member 111. Optionally, the height difference between the uppermost end of the blade 114 and the uppermost end of the deicing member 111 is less than 10 mm, and optionally, less than 2 mm.

[0120] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism 11 is located on the upper side of the carrying platform 10 and is movably disposed on the carrying platform 10 along a second direction X, and the second direction X intersects the height direction Z. The deicing device 1 also includes a second driving member 13, which is connected to the deicing mechanism 11 and is used to drive the deicing mechanism 11 to move along the second direction X.

[0121] The second driving member 13 may include a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, a motor or other power components.

[0122] The deicing mechanism 11 can translate along the second direction X to increase the deicing area of ​​the deicing mechanism 11 and improve the deicing efficiency. The second driving member 13 can replace manual labor to achieve automatic deicing.

[0123] In some embodiments, the deicing device 1 includes a guide rail 14 , which is fixed to the carrying platform 10 and extends along the second direction X. The deicing mechanism 11 is slidably connected to the guide rail 14 .

[0124] In some embodiments, there are two guide rails 14 , and the two guide rails 14 are spaced apart along the first direction Y.

[0125] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism 11 includes a base 118 and two support plates 116, and the base 118 is slidably connected to the guide rail 14. The two support plates 116 are fixed to the upper side of the base 118 and spaced apart along the first direction Y, and the two ends of the shaft 113 are rotatably connected to the two support plates 116 respectively.

[0126] The deicing member 111 is located on the upper side of the base 118 and is spaced apart from the base 118 .

[0127] In some embodiments, the blade 114 and the brush 115 are fixed to a base 118 .

[0128] In some embodiments, the first driving member 112 and the reducer are connected to the base 118 .

[0129] In some embodiments, the deicing device 1 further includes a rack 15, which extends along the second direction X; the second driving member 13 includes a servo motor and a gear, the servo motor is fixed to the base 118 and connected to the gear, and the gear is meshed with the rack 15. When the servo motor drives the gear to rotate, the gear moves along the rack 15, thereby driving the servo motor and the base 118 to move along the second direction X.

[0130] In some embodiments, the rack 15 is located outside the guide rail 14 .

[0131] In some embodiments, the deicing device 1 includes a support base 16, a transmission assembly 17 and a third driving member 18, wherein the support base 16 is located at the lower side of the carrying platform 10, the transmission assembly 17 connects the support base 16 and the carrying platform 10, and the third driving member 18 is connected to the transmission assembly 17, and the third driving member 18 is used to drive the carrying platform 10 to rise and fall through the transmission assembly 17. A plurality of adjustment mechanisms 12 are connected to the support base 16.

[0132] The third driving member 18 is used to provide power to drive the carrying platform 10 to move up and down through the transmission assembly 17. As an example, the third driving member 18 includes but is not limited to at least one of a motor, a cylinder and a hydraulic cylinder.

[0133] The transmission assembly 17 is used to transmit the power provided by the third driving member 18 to the carrying platform 10. As an example, the transmission assembly 17 includes but is not limited to at least one of a scissor transmission structure, a connecting rod transmission structure, a cam transmission structure and a lead screw nut transmission structure.

[0134] The transmission assembly 17 can be one group or multiple groups. The third driving member 18 can be one or multiple.

[0135] When deicing is required, the deicing device 1 is first moved to the lower side of the ice layer; then, the third driving member 18 drives the carrying platform 10 to rise through the transmission assembly 17, so that the deicing mechanism 11 can contact the ice layer. By providing the third driving member 18 and the transmission assembly 17, ice layers of different heights can be removed, thereby improving the applicability of the deicing device 1.

[0136] For example, the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a variety of vehicle models. For vehicle models with different heights of the battery 2 from the ground, the third drive member 18 can adjust the height of the carrying platform 10 through the transmission assembly 17. When the height of the battery 2 is low, the third drive member 18 can lower the carrying platform 10 through the transmission assembly 17, and when the height of the battery 2 is high, the third drive member 18 can raise the carrying platform 10 through the transmission assembly 17.

[0137] In some embodiments, there are multiple transmission assemblies 17, multiple third driving members 18, and each third driving member 18 is used to drive at least one transmission assembly 17. Optionally, the transmission assemblies 17 and the third driving members 18 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0138] The third driving members 18 are driven independently, and a plurality of third driving members 18 can adjust the heights of different positions of the carrying platform 10 , thereby changing the posture of the carrying platform 10 .

[0139] Exemplarily, during deicing, the plurality of third driving members 18 and the plurality of adjusting mechanisms 12 jointly adjust the posture of the carrying platform 10 .

[0140] In some embodiments, the transmission assembly 17 includes a scissor-type transmission structure. The scissor-type transmission structure can make the lifting of the carrying platform 10 more stable.

[0141] In some embodiments, the deicing device 1 further includes a plurality of detection mechanisms 19, which are disposed on the upper side of the carrying platform 10 and are arranged at intervals, and the detection mechanisms 19 are used to detect the relative position of the carrying platform 10 and the part to be deiced.

[0142] When the third driving member 18 lifts the carrying platform 10 through the transmission member, the multiple detection mechanisms 19 can detect the relative position of the carrying platform 10 and the part to be de-iced, so as to determine whether the carrying platform 10 has moved into place; after the position of the carrying platform 10 corresponding to the multiple detection mechanisms 19 has moved into place, the de-icing mechanism 11 starts and begins to de-ice.

[0143] In some embodiments, the detection mechanism 19 includes a pressure sensor. As the carrying platform 10 moves upward, the detection mechanism 19 begins to press against the ice layer or the battery 2, and the pressure sensor detects the pressure in real time; when the pressure sensors of multiple detection mechanisms 19 all reach the threshold, the carrying platform 10 moves into place, and the de-icing mechanism 11 starts to de-ice.

[0144] If the battery 2 is tilted, multiple adjustment mechanisms 12 can adjust the posture of the carrying platform 10 so that multiple detection mechanisms 19 can be pressurized at the same time; when the pressure sensors of the multiple detection mechanisms 19 reach the threshold, the posture of the carrying platform 10 corresponds to the posture of the battery 2, and the de-icing mechanism 11 starts and begins to de-ice.

[0145] In other embodiments, the detection mechanism 19 includes a distance sensor. A plurality of distance sensors can measure the distances between a plurality of positions of the carrying platform 10 and the battery 2. As the carrying platform 10 moves upward, when the distances between a plurality of positions of the carrying platform 10 and the battery 2 all reach a threshold value, the carrying platform 10 moves into position, and the deicing mechanism 11 is activated and starts deicing.

[0146] If the battery 2 is tilted, the multiple adjustment mechanisms 12 can adjust the posture of the carrying platform 10, and then adjust the distance between multiple positions of the carrying platform 10 and the battery 2. When the distances between multiple positions of the carrying platform 10 and the battery 2 all reach the threshold, the posture of the carrying platform 10 corresponds to the posture of the battery 2, and the deicing mechanism 11 is activated and starts to de-ice.

[0147] In some other embodiments, the detection mechanism 19 may include a positioning column. As the carrying platform 10 moves upward, the positioning column can press against the battery 2. If the battery 2 is tilted, the multiple adjustment mechanisms 12 can adjust the posture of the carrying platform 10 so that the posture of the carrying platform 10 corresponds to the posture of the battery 2, and the multiple positioning columns can press against the battery 2 at the same time. When the multiple positioning columns press against the battery 2 at the same time, the carrying platform 10 moves into place, and the deicing mechanism 11 is activated and starts to de-ice.

[0148] In some embodiments, the end of the detection mechanism 19 away from the carrying platform 10 has a tapered portion 191. The tapered portion 191 can penetrate the ice layer and abut against the battery 2; when the tapered portions 191 of multiple detection mechanisms 19 abut against the battery 2, the deicing mechanism 11 is activated and starts to de-ice.

[0149] In some embodiments, in the height direction Z, the uppermost end of the conical portion 191 is slightly higher than the uppermost end of the deicing member 111. Optionally, the height difference between the uppermost end of the conical portion 191 and the uppermost end of the deicing member 111 is less than 10 mm, and optionally, less than 2 mm.

[0150] In some embodiments, at least two detection mechanisms 19 are arranged diagonally. Arranging at least two detection mechanisms 19 diagonally can improve detection accuracy; when the two diagonal detection mechanisms 19 detect that the carrying platform 10 has moved into place, the posture of the carrying platform 10 is close to the posture of the battery 2, and the deicing effect of the deicing mechanism 11 is better.

[0151] In some embodiments, the carrying platform 10 is substantially rectangular when viewed along the height direction Z. Optionally, there are at least four detection mechanisms 19 , and the four detection mechanisms 19 are respectively disposed near four corners of the carrying platform 10 .

[0152] In some embodiments, the deicing mechanism 11 includes a plurality of deicing parts 111, and the plurality of deicing parts 111 are arranged at intervals along the first direction Y; among the plurality of deicing parts 111, the two deicing parts 111 located at both ends are respectively the first deicing part 111a and the second deicing part 111b. The plurality of detection mechanisms 19 include two first detection mechanisms 19a and two second detection mechanisms 19b. In the second direction X, the two first detection mechanisms 19a are respectively located on both sides of the first deicing part 111a, and the second detection mechanisms 19b are respectively located on both sides of the second deicing part 111b. The first detection mechanism 19a and the second detection mechanism 19b are arranged along the first direction Y. The first direction Y, the second direction X, and the height direction Z are perpendicular to each other.

[0153] After the position of the carrying platform 10 corresponding to the two first detection mechanisms 19a is moved into place, the first deicing member 111a removes the ice layer between the two first detection mechanisms 19a; after the position of the carrying platform 10 corresponding to the two second detection mechanisms 19b is moved into place, the second deicing member 111b removes the ice layer between the two second detection mechanisms 19b. The embodiment of the present application can improve the deicing effect of the edge area of ​​the battery 2.

[0154] In some embodiments, the deicing device 1 further includes a plurality of positioning plates 20, at least two of which are respectively located on both sides of the carrying platform 10 along the first direction Y. In the height direction Z, the upper ends of the positioning plates 20 are higher than the deicing mechanism 11. The deicing device 1 is configured to be movable along the second direction X. The first direction Y, the second direction X, and the height direction Z are perpendicular to each other.

[0155] When the deicing device 1 is moved along the second direction X, the two positioning plates 20 can be moved to both sides of the battery 2 along the first direction Y, so as to position the deicing mechanism 11 so that the deicing mechanism 11 can be opposite to the ice layer on the lower side of the battery 2.

[0156] In some embodiments, there are at least four positioning plates 20 , and the four positioning plates 20 are respectively disposed at four corners of the carrying platform 10 .

[0157] In some embodiments, the positioning plate 20 includes a positioning body 201, a first thinning portion 202 and a second thinning portion 203, the first thinning portion 202 extends from the upper end of the positioning body 201, and the thickness of the first thinning portion 202 gradually decreases in a direction away from the positioning body 201, and the second thinning portion 203 extends from one side of the positioning body 201 along the second direction X, and the thickness of the second thinning portion 203 gradually decreases in a direction away from the positioning body 201.

[0158] The first thinned portion 202 is relatively sharp. When the carrying platform 10 moves upward, the first thinned portion 202 can pierce the ice layer, so that the positioning plate 20 moves to the outside of the battery 2 along the first direction Y more quickly.

[0159] When the deicing device 1 moves along the second direction X toward the bottom of the battery 2 , the second thinning portion 203 can cut the ice layer outside the battery 2 to reduce the obstruction of the deicing device 1 by the ice layer and reduce the resistance encountered by the deicing device 1 .

[0160] Exemplarily, there may be two second thinning portions 203, which are respectively located on both sides of the positioning body 201. Alternatively, there may be one second thinning portion 203, and when the deicing device 1 moves along the second direction X toward the bottom of the battery 2, the second thinning portion 203 may face the battery 2.

[0161] In some embodiments, the deicing device 1 further includes a limit plate 21, which is connected to one end of the carrying platform 10 along the second direction X. When the deicing device 1 moves along the second direction X toward the bottom of the battery 2, the limit plate 21 can play a limiting role, reducing the risk of excessive movement of the deicing device 1 in the second direction X, so that the deicing area of ​​the deicing mechanism 11 corresponds to the battery 2.

[0162] In some embodiments, the limiting plate 21 is connected to the positioning plate 20 .

[0163] In some embodiments, the de-icing device 1 includes a plurality of wheel assemblies 22 , and the plurality of wheel assemblies 22 are connected to the plurality of adjustment mechanisms 12 in a one-to-one correspondence, and each wheel assembly 22 supports a corresponding adjustment mechanism 12 .

[0164] By providing a plurality of wheel assemblies 22, the resistance of the deicing device 1 to movement can be reduced and the deicing efficiency can be improved. The deicing device 1 can be pushed manually and has the characteristics of convenient movement and rapid transfer.

[0165] In some embodiments, the deicing device 1 includes a mounting plate 23 connected to the carrying platform 10, and the wheel assembly 22 includes a mounting seat 221 located at the lower side of the mounting plate 23 and a wheel 222 rotatably connected to the mounting seat 221. The adjustment mechanism 12 is connected between the mounting plate 23 and the mounting seat 221.

[0166] The mounting plate 23 can be directly connected to the carrying platform 10 or indirectly connected to the carrying platform 10 through other components. For example, the mounting plate 23 is fixed to the support seat 16 , and the mounting plate 23 is connected to the carrying platform 10 through the support seat 16 and the transmission assembly 17 .

[0167] There may be one or more mounting plates 23. In some examples, the mounting plate 23 is a whole, and the multiple adjustment mechanisms 12 are connected to different areas of the mounting plate 23; in other examples, there are multiple mounting plates 23, and the multiple mounting plates 23 and the multiple adjustment mechanisms 12 are arranged one by one.

[0168] The wheel 222 may be a fixed wheel or a universal wheel.

[0169] By providing the mounting plate 23 and the mounting seat 221 , the stability of the adjustment mechanism 12 can be improved.

[0170] In some embodiments, the mounting seat 221 is provided with a guide hole extending along the height direction Z, and the deicing device 1 further includes a guide shaft 24 fixed to the mounting plate 23 , the guide shaft 24 extends into the guide hole and slidably cooperates with the mounting seat 221 .

[0171] By providing the guide shaft 24 and the guide hole, the risk of the elastic member 121 being deflected can be reduced.

[0172] Optionally, the elastic member 121 includes a spring, and the spring can be sleeved on the guide shaft 24 .

[0173] In some embodiments, the diameter of the guide shaft 24 is smaller than the diameter of the guide hole, and there is a gap between the guide shaft 24 and the hole wall of the guide hole. This gap can provide a margin for the guide shaft 24 to deviate, thereby reducing the interference of the guide shaft 24 on the posture adjustment of the carrying platform 10.

[0174] In some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism 12 includes a plurality of springs, and the plurality of springs are clamped between the mounting plate 23 and the mounting seat 221 .

[0175] In some embodiments, the deicing device 1 further includes a handrail 25 , which is disposed on one side of the supporting platform 10 along the second direction X.

[0176] The staff can push the de-icing device 1 to move by means of the handrail 25 .

[0177] In some examples, the second driving member 13 may be omitted. During deicing, the staff may push the deicing device 1 to move along the second direction X, so that the deicing mechanism 11 may remove the ice layer attached to the surface of the battery 2 .

[0178] In some embodiments, deicing device 1 further includes a wheel drive (not shown), which may be connected to wheel 222 , and the wheel drive may drive wheel 222 to rotate and / or change the direction of wheel 222 , thereby achieving automated movement of deicing device 1 .

[0179] In some embodiments, the limiting plate 21 is connected to one end of the carrying platform 10 close to the armrest 25 .

[0180] In some embodiments, blade 114 is located on a side of de-icing member 111 close to handrail 25 .

[0181] A specific deicing method of the deicing device 1 according to an embodiment of the present application is described below.

[0182] When the vehicle 3 moves to the set position, the staff pushes the deicing device 1 along the second direction X from one side of the vehicle 3 to push the deicing device 1 to the lower side of the battery 2. When pushing the deicing device 1, the positioning plate 20 is aligned with both sides of the battery 2 along the first direction Y, so that the carrying platform 10 moves to the lower side of the battery 2. When the limiting plate 21 abuts against the vehicle 3, the pushing of the deicing device 1 stops.

[0183] Then, the third driving member 18 is started to raise the carrying platform 10. As the carrying platform 10 rises, the multiple detection mechanisms 19 gradually contact the battery 2; if the battery 2 is tilted, the battery 2 will squeeze the elastic member 121 of the adjustment mechanism 12 through the detection mechanism 19, the carrying platform 10 and other components, and the elastic member 121 will be compressed to change the posture of the carrying platform 10, thereby making the posture of the carrying platform 10 correspond to the posture of the battery 2. After the multiple detection mechanisms 19 are in contact with the battery 2, the third driving member 18 stops.

[0184] Then, the first driving member 112 and the second driving member 13 are started, the cylinder 1111 of the de-icing member 111 starts to rotate, and the de-icing member 111, the shovel 114 and the brush 115 start to translate along the second direction X. The de-icing member 111 can quickly break and remove ice under the combined movement of rotation and translation, and the shovel 114 and the brush 115 can further clean the locking member 2b area of ​​the battery 2, thereby improving the de-icing effect.

[0185] When the deicing mechanism 11 moves to the end in the second direction X, the first driving member 112 and the second driving member 13 stop, and deicing ends; the staff pulls the deicing device 1 away from the vehicle 3. Alternatively, the deicing mechanism 11 can reciprocate multiple times in the second direction X to improve the deicing effect.

[0186] In some embodiments, the vehicle 3 may include a plurality of batteries 2. For example, the de-icing device 1 may de-ice only one battery 2 at a time, or may de-ice a plurality of batteries 2 at the same time.

[0187] Figure 7 A partial schematic diagram of deicing equipment provided in some other embodiments of the present application.

[0188] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the deicing mechanism 11 further includes a blowing member 117 , and the blowing member 117 is disposed on a side of the blade 114 facing away from the deicing member 111 .

[0189] The blowing member 117 can be connected to an air source to blow air toward the battery 2. After the blade 114 removes the ice layer, the blowing member 117 can blow air toward the battery 2 to clean the ice debris or mud and sand remaining on the surface of the battery 2.

[0190] In some embodiments, a brush 115 may be provided between the blowing member 117 and the scraper 114. Alternatively, the brush 115 may also be omitted.

[0191] In some embodiments, the gas blown out by the blowing member 117 may be hot air, which can melt the remaining ice residue, thereby improving the deicing effect and playing a role in cleaning the battery 2 .

[0192] Figure 8 A simplified schematic diagram of a deicing device provided for some other embodiments of the present application.

[0193] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism 12 can be directly connected to the carrying platform 10 .

[0194] In some embodiments, the deicing device 1 includes an adapter plate 26, which is located above the support base 16, the transmission assembly 17 connects the support base 16 and the adapter plate 26, and the third driving member 18 drives the adapter plate 26 to rise and fall through the transmission assembly 17.

[0195] The carrying platform 10 is disposed above the adapter plate 26 , and a plurality of adjustment mechanisms 12 are located between the carrying platform 10 and the adapter plate 26 . The adjustment mechanisms 12 connect the carrying platform 10 and the adapter plate 26 .

[0196] After the deicing device 1 moves to below the battery 2 , the third driving member 18 drives the adapter plate 26 to rise via the transmission assembly 17 ; the adapter plate 26 drives the carrying platform 10 to rise via the multiple adjustment mechanisms 12 .

[0197] When the carrying platform 10 is subjected to pressure from the battery 2, the adjustment mechanism 12 is actuated and changes the posture of the carrying platform 10. For example, when the carrying platform 10 is not subjected to pressure from the battery 2, the compression amounts of the multiple elastic members 121 are the same, and the carrying platform 10 remains horizontal; when the carrying platform 10 is subjected to pressure from the battery 2, the compression amounts of the elastic members 121 are affected by the pressure of the battery 2, and the compression amounts of the multiple elastic members 121 differ, thereby adjusting the posture of the carrying platform 10.

[0198] Fig. 9 A simplified schematic diagram of a de-icing device provided for some further embodiments of the present application.

[0199] In some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism 12 includes a fourth driving member 122 , and the fourth driving member 122 is used to drive the carrying platform 10 to rise and fall.

[0200] The adjustment mechanism 12 actively controls the posture of the carrying platform 10. If the battery 2 is tilted or other problems occur, the plurality of fourth driving members 122 adjust the heights of different positions of the carrying platform 10 so that the carrying platform 10 can be adaptively tilted, thereby reducing the problem of a large distance between the deicing mechanism 11 and the ice layer caused by the tilt of the battery 2, improving the deicing efficiency and the deicing effect.

[0201] In some embodiments, the fourth driving member 122 may include a cylinder.

[0202] In some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism 12 may further include a transmission component connecting the fourth driving member 122 and the carrying platform 10, such as a scissor transmission component, a connecting rod transmission component or other transmission components.

[0203] In some embodiments, the fourth driving member 122 is disposed between the adapter plate 26 and the carrying platform 10. In other embodiments, the fourth driving member 122 is connected to the support base 16 and can drive the support base 16 to rise and fall, thereby driving the carrying platform 10 to rise and fall through the support base 16.
