[0030] The following description is used to disclose the present disclosure so that those skilled in the art can implement the present disclosure. The preferred embodiments in the following description are only examples, and those skilled in the art can think of other obvious variations. The basic principles defined in the following description of the present disclosure can be applied to other implementation schemes, variation schemes, improvement schemes, equivalent schemes, and other technical schemes that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure.

[0031] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of the present disclosure, the orientation or positional relationships indicated by the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present disclosure and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on the present disclosure.

[0032] It can be understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more". That is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in other embodiments, the number of the element can be multiple. The term "a" should not be construed as a limitation on the number.

[0033] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, terms such as "installed", "connected", "joined", "fixed", etc. shall be understood in a broad sense. For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it may be a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or capable of communicating with each other; it may be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and may be the communication inside two components or the interaction relationship between two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0034] In the related art, when the clamping assembly for clamping a battery pack clamps the battery pack, it mainly relies on the frictional force between the clamping member and the battery pack to achieve the clamping of the battery pack. However, this method results in poor stability of the clamped battery pack, and the battery pack is likely to fall off when the clamping assembly moves while carrying the clamped battery pack.

[0035] However, if a concave-convex structure that can cooperate with the battery pack is provided on the clamping member, since the position of the concave-convex structure is fixed, the clamping assembly can only clamp one kind of the battery packs with a certain position of the concave-convex structure, and the applicable range of the clamping assembly is small.

[0036] In view of this, the present disclosure provides a battery pack clamping assembly. When the battery pack clamping assembly clamps a battery pack, the battery pack has high stability and is difficult to fall off, and the battery pack clamping assembly can clamp a variety of different battery packs with concave-convex structures located at different positions, and has a wide applicable range.

[0037] Figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of the battery pack clamping assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 It is a top view schematic diagram of the battery pack clamping assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the battery pack clamping assembly includes a first clamping member 10 and a second clamping member 20. The second clamping member 20 is opposite to and spaced from the first clamping member 10, and the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member can move towards / away from each other to cooperate with each other to clamp the battery pack 900.

[0038] In other words, when the battery pack clamping assembly clamps the battery pack 900, the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 can move away from each other first, so as to expand the distance between the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20, and make the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 located on opposite sides of the battery pack 900 respectively. Then the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 move towards each other, so as to reduce the distance between the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20, and make the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 approach and fit against the opposite side portions of the battery pack 900 respectively. Thus, the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 realize the clamping of the battery pack 900.

[0039] Optionally, the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 are arranged in a vertical plane. The first clamping member 10 includes a first clamping plate 11. The second clamping member 20 includes a second clamping plate 21. Wherein, the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 21 are in a vertical state when clamping the battery pack 900.

[0040] Thus, when the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 cooperate to clamp the battery pack 900, the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 21 can respectively adhere tightly to the opposite side portions of the battery pack 900, so that the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 21 cooperate to clamp the battery pack 900, and the clamping effect on the battery pack 900 is good.

[0041] Optionally, the first clamping member 10 further includes a first limiting plate 12. The first limiting plate 12 is arranged on the side of the first clamping plate 11. The second clamping member 20 further includes a second limiting plate 22. The second limiting plate 22 is arranged on the side of the second clamping plate 21 and is on the same side as the first limiting plate 12.

[0042] Thus, when the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 cooperate to clamp the battery pack 900 and carry the battery pack 900 to move, the first limiting plate 12 and the second limiting plate 22 can cooperate to limit the battery pack 900, and prevent the battery pack 900 from slipping out from the notch on the side where the first limiting plate 12 and the second limiting plate 22 are located.

[0043] At least one of the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 is provided with a plurality of mounting parts, and the plurality of mounting parts respectively correspond to the positions of the mating parts 91 on different battery packs 900 to be clamped. At least one of the mounting parts is for detachably arranging a plug-in member 30 capable of switching between the plurality of mounting parts, and the plug-in member 30 is for plugging and mating with the mating part 91 corresponding to the mounting part where it is located.

[0044] In other words, at least one of the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 is provided with a plurality of mounting portions, and at least one mounting portion is provided with a plug-in member 30 that can be switched between the plurality of mounting portions. The plug-in member 30 is adapted to be plugged and mated with a mating portion 91 of different battery packs 900.

[0045] For example, the first clamping member 10 is provided with a plurality of first mounting portions 101, and at least one of the first mounting portions 101 is provided with a first plug-in member 31 that can be switched between the plurality of first mounting portions 101 to be plugged and mated with the first mating portions 911 at different positions of different battery packs 900. And / or the second clamping member 20 is provided with a plurality of second mounting portions 201, and at least one of the second mounting portions 201 is provided with a second plug-in member 32 that can be switched between the plurality of second mounting portions 201 to be plugged and mated with the second mating portions 912 at different positions of different battery packs 900.

[0046] Thus, through the plugging and mating of the plug-in member 30 and the mating portion 91, the connection between the first clamping member 10 and / or the second clamping member 20 and the battery pack 900 is firm. When the battery pack 900 is clamped by the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20, the stability is high and it is difficult to fall off. And since the plug-in member 30 can be switched between a plurality of mounting portions, the plug-in member 30 can be plugged and mated with the mating portions 91 at different positions of different battery packs 900, so that the battery pack clamping assembly can clamp different types of battery packs 900 with different positions of the mating portion 91, making the application range of the battery pack clamping assembly relatively wide.

[0047] Optionally, one of the plug-in member 30 and the mating portion 91 is formed with a convex portion, and the other is formed with a concave portion that can be plugged and mated with the convex portion. For example, the plug-in member 30 is formed with a convex portion, and the mating portion 91 is formed as a concave portion that can be plugged and mated with the convex portion. Or the plug-in member 30 is formed with a concave portion, and the mating portion 91 is formed as a convex portion that can be plugged and mated with the concave portion. Thus, when the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 cooperate to clamp the battery pack 900, the convex portion is inserted into the concave portion, so that the plugging and mating between the plug-in member 30 and the mating portion 91 is realized.

[0048] Optionally, a plurality of mounting holes are provided at the plurality of mounting portions, and the plug-in member 30 is adapted to be detachably mounted in each of the mounting holes.

[0049] Specifically, refer to Figure 1, a plurality of first mounting holes are provided at the plurality of first mounting portions 101, and the first plug-in member 31 is adapted to be detachably mounted in each of the first mounting holes. Thus, when the first plug-in member 31 is switched to be mounted in different first mounting holes, the first plug-in member 31 is switched between the plurality of first mounting portions 101.

[0050] A plurality of second mounting holes are provided at the plurality of second mounting portions 201, and the second plug-in member 32 is adapted to be detachably mounted in each of the second mounting holes. Thus, when the second plug-in member 32 is switched to be mounted in different second mounting holes, the second plug-in member 32 is switched between the plurality of second mounting portions 201.

[0051] Thus, by forming the plurality of mounting holes at the plurality of mounting portions and the cooperation between the plug-in member 30 and the mounting holes, the plug-in member 30 is switched between the plurality of mounting portions.

[0052] Optionally, the plug-in member 30 is in threaded engagement with the mounting hole. Specifically, the first plug-in member 31 is in threaded engagement with the first mounting hole. Thus, after the first plug-in member 31 is screwed out of one first mounting hole and screwed into another first mounting hole, the position of the first plug-in member 31 is switched, and the position switching of the first plug-in member 31 is convenient.

[0053] The second plug-in member 32 is in threaded engagement with the second mounting hole. Thus, after the second plug-in member 32 is screwed out of one second mounting hole and screwed into another second mounting hole, the position of the second plug-in member 32 is switched, and the position switching of the second plug-in member 32 is convenient.

[0054] Thus, by screwing the plug-in member 30 out of / into the mounting hole, the position of the plug-in member 30 is switched, and the position switching of the plug-in member 30 is convenient.

[0055] Figure 3 is a schematic structural view of the battery pack clamping device according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 2 , the present disclosure further provides a battery pack clamping device, which includes the battery pack clamping assembly and the driving assembly 40 as described above. The driving assembly 40 is respectively connected to the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to drive the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to move towards / away from each other.

[0056] As can be seen from the foregoing description, in the present disclosure, the driving assembly 40 drives the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to move towards / away from each other, so that the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 cooperate to clamp different battery packs 900 at different positions of the mating portion 91. The battery pack clamping device has a good clamping effect on the battery pack 900, can clamp different battery packs 900, and has a wide application range.

[0057] Optionally, the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 are arranged to be able to rotate towards / away from each other. The driving assembly 40 includes a rotation driving member. The rotation driving member is respectively connected to the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to drive the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to rotate towards / away from each other, so that the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 rotate and converge to clamp the battery pack 900, or the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 rotate and separate to release the battery pack 900.

[0058] Specifically, the rotation driving member includes a first operating member 41 and a second operating member 42. One end of the first operating member 41 forms a first operating portion 411, and the other end is connected to the first clamping member 10.

[0059] The second operating member 42 is cross-hinged with the first operating member 41. In other words, the second operating member 42 and the first operating member 41 are cross-arranged, and the first operating member 41 and the second operating member 42 can rotate relative to each other around the intersection point.

[0060] One end of the second operating member 42 forms a second operating portion 421, and the other end is connected to the second clamping member 20.

[0061] Thus, when the battery pack clamping device clamps the battery pack 900, first place the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 on opposite sides of the battery pack 900, and then operate the first operating portion 411 and the second operating portion 421 to rotate and approach each other. The first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 also rotate and approach accordingly, so that the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 can respectively approach opposite side portions of the battery pack 900 until the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 respectively abut against opposite side portions of the battery pack 900, and the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 cooperate to clamp the battery pack 900.

[0062] In this way, when the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 cooperate to clamp the battery pack 900, and the battery pack clamping device is transferred, the battery pack 900 will be clamped and transferred accordingly. Moreover, the battery pack clamping device of the present disclosure has a simple structure, few parts, and low cost.

[0063] Optionally, the first operating member 41 includes a first lower rod portion 412 and a first upper rod portion 413. The first clamping member 10 is provided at the lower end of the first lower rod portion 412. One end of the first upper rod portion 413 is connected to the upper end of the first lower rod portion 412 at an angle, and the other end is provided with the first operating portion 411.

[0064] The second operating member 42 includes a second lower rod portion 422 and a second upper rod portion 423. The second clamping member 20 is provided at the lower end of the second lower rod portion 422. One end of the second upper rod portion 423 is connected to the upper end of the second lower rod portion 422 at an angle, and the other end is provided with the second operating portion 421, and the second upper rod portion 423 extends away from the first upper rod portion 413. Thus, the distance between the first operating portion 411 and the second operating portion 421 is relatively far, and there is sufficient operating space around both the first operating portion 411 and the second operating portion 421, which is convenient for two people to operate the first operating portion 411 and the second operating portion 421 respectively without interference.

[0065] Specifically, the connection angle between the second upper rod portion 423 and the second lower rod portion 422 is an obtuse angle, and the connection angle between the first upper rod portion 413 and the first lower rod portion 412 is an obtuse angle.

[0066] Figure 4 It is the front view of the battery pack clamping device according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure. Refer to Figure 4 , the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 can also be arranged to move towards / away from each other. The driving assembly 40 includes a moving driving member. The moving driving member is respectively connected to the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to drive the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to move towards / away from each other, so that the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 move closer to clamp the battery pack 900, or the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 move apart to release the battery pack 900.

[0067] Specifically, the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 are slidably disposed on a guide rail 800 in opposite / away directions, and the moving driving member includes a first cylinder 43 and a second cylinder 44. The first cylinder 43 and the second cylinder 44 are respectively connected to the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to drive the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to move in opposite / away directions.
