Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric vehicle battery swapping, in particular to a battery compartment with an opening at the top. Background Art

[0002] The battery compartment is an important part of an electric vehicle, and its function is to carry and protect the battery. In the battery swapping mode, the battery enters and exits from the front, rear or bottom of the battery compartment, and a transfer trolley or other device is responsible for grasping and sending it to the battery swapping cabinet. The battery compartment usually needs to be equipped with a battery driving device inside to move the battery out of the battery compartment. Most of the existing battery compartment structures are fixed at the bottom of the vehicle and only drive the battery in and out.

[0003] Chinese patent document with the application number 202411172032.X discloses a battery compartment structure with an opening at the top. This structure realizes battery replacement and maintenance by setting an opening at the top of the battery compartment. However, the top of this structure's battery compartment is completely open and does not have sealing performance, which easily causes dust, water vapor, etc. to enter the inside of the battery compartment, affecting the safety and service life of the battery. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a battery compartment with an opening at the top to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following scheme:

[0006] A battery compartment with an opening at the top, the battery compartment is of a cuboid structure, and a first opening structure for the battery to enter and exit is provided on any side wall along the length direction of the battery compartment;

[0007] A second opening structure is provided on the upper surface of the battery compartment, and the opening area of the second opening structure is smaller than the area of the upper surface of the battery compartment.

[0008] Furthermore, a battery fixing structure is provided on the inner side surface along the length direction of the battery compartment.

[0009] Furthermore, the second opening structure is provided on one side of the upper surface of the battery compartment away from the first opening structure.

[0010] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that, compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0011] The utility model sets an opening corresponding to the battery connection plug at the top of the battery compartment and ensures that the opening area is smaller than the area of the top surface of the battery compartment, thereby effectively preventing dust, water vapor, etc. from entering the inside of the battery compartment and improving the safety, reliability and service life of the battery.

[0012] The present utility model cancels the lifting device and the driving device inside the battery compartment, with a simpler structure, lower cost, and more convenient maintenance.

[0013] The present utility model is connected to the battery through the connection socket at the bottom of the vehicle and the battery connection plug, realizing synchronous lifting of the battery compartment and the battery, avoiding the battery falling off from the opening during vehicle driving, and improving safety.
