Among them, the bracket device for precise battery positioning can be applied to an automobile or a battery swapping station to improve the fixing effect of the battery on the automobile or the battery swapping station. However, it is not limited to this. The specific application scenarios of the bracket device for precise battery positioning can be determined according to actual needs.

[0038] Specifically, the bracket device for precise battery positioning includes a connecting frame 100 and a bracket structure 200, and a positioning unit 300 is arranged on the bracket structure 200.
