[0023] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a battery swap station provided according to an embodiment of the present application includes a battery swap station body 100 and a support and mounting assembly 200. A battery swap system is provided inside the battery swap station body 100, and a first connection portion 110 and a second connection portion 120 are provided on the bottom surface of the battery swap station body 100. The battery swap system includes a transformer cabinet, a battery swap cabin, a spare compartment, and a battery pack handling device. Due to the mature technology of battery swap systems in battery swap stations, there are many options on the market, which will not be described in detail here.

[0024] The support mounting assembly 200 includes multiple support legs 210, which are supported by aluminum profiles or high-strength structural steel. The support legs 210 have a third connecting portion 211 and a fourth connecting portion 212 located below the third connecting portion 211. The third connecting portion 211 is located on the side wall of the top end of the support leg 210. The support leg 210 is located below the battery swap station body 100 and is hinged to the first connecting portion 110 via the third connecting portion 211.

[0025] A pull rod 220 is provided between the main body 100 of the battery swap station, and the ends of the pull rod 220 are detachably connected to the second connecting portion 120 and the fourth connecting portion 212. Optionally, the pull rod 220 can be detachably connected to the second connecting portion 120 and the fourth connecting portion 212 by screwing, snapping, locking, etc., which will not be repeated here.

[0026] Among them, the distance between the first connection part 110 and the second connection part 120 is equal to the distance between the third connection part 211 and the fourth connection part 212, so that after the user disassembles the pull rod 220, rotating the support leg 210 can make the second connection part 120 and the fourth connection part 212 detachable and connected.

[0027] It is understandable that when the user needs to arrange the battery swap station, the multiple support legs 210 can be rotated into a vertical position to support the battery swap station body 100, and then the two ends of the pull rod 220 can be connected to the second connection part 120 and the fourth connection part 212 to form a diagonal bracing structure to improve the support stability of the support legs 210. When the user needs to move and transport the battery swap station, the pull rod 220 can be removed and placed into the battery swap station body 100, and then the support legs 210 can be rotated to connect the second connection part 120 and the third connection part 211 to store the support legs 210. By providing the support legs 210 and the pull rod 220, the support legs 210 can be folded and stored under the battery swap station body 100, which facilitates the movement and transportation of the battery swap station body 100. At the same time, the support legs 210 can be quickly unfolded at the arrangement position and connected to the pull rod 220 to support the installation of the battery swap station body 100, effectively improving the deployment efficiency of the battery swap station and ensuring the stable installation of the battery swap station.

[0028] Furthermore, the pull rod 220 is an alloy part. Optionally, the pull rod 220 can be an aluminum alloy part, a carbon steel part, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0029] The pull rod 220 is configured as an alloy part to ensure the overall strength of the pull rod 220, thereby increasing the supporting strength of the pull rod 220 and ensuring the overall structural stability after the battery swap station is arranged.

[0030] Furthermore, a plurality of tie rods 220 are provided, and the plurality of tie rods 220 are spaced apart along the circumference of the support leg 210 .

[0031] Arranging multiple tie rods 220 along the circumferential direction can avoid the problem of insufficient support and instability in other parts of the support leg 210 where no tie rod 220 is arranged, thereby further improving the support stability of the support leg 210.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it can be understood that a rectangular supporting surface is provided at the top of the supporting leg 210, and the projection of the supporting leg 210 on the horizontal plane is located within the projection of the supporting surface on the horizontal plane, and the supporting surface can correspond to and abut against the bottom surface of the battery swap station body 100 and be bolted.

[0033] By setting a support surface with an area larger than the cross-section of the support leg 210, the contact area between the support leg 210 and the battery swap station can be increased, the stress between the support leg 210 and the battery swap station can be evenly dispersed, stress concentration can be avoided, the static structure of the support leg 210 can be optimized, and the structural rationality of the support leg 210 can be improved.

[0034] Furthermore, a plurality of third connection portions 211 are provided at intervals along the circumference of the support leg 210 , and the first connection portion 110 and the second connection portion 120 are provided in one-to-one correspondence with the third connection portions 211 , respectively.

[0035] Multiple third connection parts 211 and first connection parts 110 are arranged correspondingly, and the third connection parts 211 are spaced circumferentially along the support legs 210, so that the support legs 210 can be conveniently placed, rotated, and stored at any angle, avoiding interference between the multiple support legs 210 when folded and stored, affecting the storage of the support legs 210 or the transportation of the battery swap station body 100, and improving the flexibility and structural rationality of the support installation assembly 200.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 As shown, it can be understood that the first connecting portion 110 is a wedge-shaped hanging ear, which is hingedly connected to the third connecting portion 211 via fasteners such as screws and pins. The first connecting portion 110 and the second connecting portion 120 have the same shape and size. Optionally, both the first connecting portion 110 and the second connecting portion 120 are welded to the substation body.

[0037] Setting the first connection part 110 and the second connection part 120 to be equal in shape and size can effectively improve the structural consistency of the first connection part 110 and the second connection part 120, facilitate the design and assembly of the first connection part 110 and the second connection part 120, and reduce the design and production cost of the battery swap station body 100.

[0038] Optionally, the third connection portion 211 and the fourth connection portion 212 can also be configured as wedge-shaped hanging ears of the same shape and size, thereby reducing the design and production costs of the support leg 210. Furthermore, the first connection portion 110, the second connection portion 120, the third connection portion 211, and the fourth connection portion 212 can all be configured as wedge-shaped hanging ears of the same shape and size, which facilitates the assembly of the support leg 210 while reducing the overall design and production costs of the battery swap station.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it can be understood that the end of the support leg 210 away from the battery swap station body 100 is connected to a lifting assembly 230, and the lifting assembly 230 can be extended or retracted in the vertical direction relative to the support leg 210. Optionally, the lifting assembly 230 can be configured as a cylinder, an electric push rod, a sleeve, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0040] By setting up the lifting assembly 230, the user can individually adjust the vertical height of each support leg 210, thereby adapting to the complex and uneven terrain of the mine, ensuring the smooth installation of the battery swap station, expanding the use scenarios of the battery swap station, and improving the practicality of the battery swap station.

[0041] Furthermore, the support mounting assembly 200 further includes a ground anchor, which is inserted into the ground or pre-buried in the ground and fixedly connected to the support leg 210. Optionally, the ground anchor can be a spiral ground anchor, an expansion ground anchor, etc. Due to the mature ground anchor market, there are many existing solutions to choose from, which will not be described in detail here.

[0042] By setting a ground anchor fixed to the ground, the ground anchor can provide additional support for the bottom end of the support leg 210, thereby enhancing the wind and earthquake resistance of the battery swap station.

[0043] Reference Figure 3 As shown, it can be understood that the lifting assembly 230 includes a base plate 231 and an adjustment bolt 232. The bottom surface of the support leg 210 is provided with a mounting plate 213. The base plate 231 is located below the mounting plate 213. The adjustment bolt 232 is threadedly engaged with the base plate 231 and the mounting plate 213 respectively. Optionally, a single adjustment bolt 232 can be provided at the center of the base plate 231, or multiple adjustment bolts 232 can be provided at intervals along the circumference of the base plate 231. This will not be further described here.

[0044] The lifting assembly 230 is set to pass through the base plate 231 and the adjusting bolt 232. By rotating the adjusting bolt 232, the distance between the base plate 231 and the mounting plate 213 can be changed, thereby adjusting the vertical height of the support leg 210. This simplifies the structure of the lifting assembly 230, facilitates the assembly and use of the lifting assembly 230, and further reduces the design and production cost of the support leg 210.

[0045] Furthermore, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 214 are provided between the support leg 210 and the mounting plate 213 , and the plurality of reinforcing ribs 214 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the support leg 210 .

[0046] By setting up reinforcing ribs 214 and welding the reinforcing ribs 214 between the support leg 210 and the mounting plate 213, the structural strength of the mounting plate 213 can be effectively improved, ensuring that the mounting plate 213 can bear the reaction force of the adjusting bolt 232, and further improving the structural stability of the support leg 210.

[0047] Obviously, the above-described embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the manner in which the present invention is to be implemented. A person skilled in the art would be able to make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
