These drawings and the textual description are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but rather to illustrate the concepts of the present application to those skilled in the art by reference to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present application, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0037] It should be noted that in the description of the embodiments of the present application, terms such as "upper", "lower", "inside", and "outside" indicating orientation or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the embodiments of the present application.

[0038] In addition, it should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or suggesting relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0039] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, terms such as "installed," "connected," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integration; mechanical connections, electrical connections, or communication; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal connections between two components or interactions between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on specific circumstances.

[0040] For vehicles with high battery requirements (such as electric trucks and electric commercial vehicles), which are equipped with more batteries, charging time is longer. However, battery swapping can shorten the charging time.

[0041] In the prior art, battery replacement is mainly achieved by setting the battery assembly on a fixed frame, which is connected to the vehicle frame through the fixed frame. A battery replacement locking mechanism is provided on the battery assembly, and the battery replacement locking mechanism includes a T-shaped locking rod and a driving part. The T-shaped locking rod is connected to the driving part, and the lock seat is provided on the frame. The driving part drives the T-shaped locking rod to rotate and cooperate with the lock seat to achieve locking and unlocking. However, the above-mentioned locking structure is relatively complex and the cost is relatively high. In addition, the battery replacement locking mechanism includes a locking hole and a latch. The locking hole is provided on the battery assembly, and the latch is connected or disengaged from the locking hole to achieve locking or unlocking. However, it is difficult to accurately position the battery in the battery replacement position on the frame during the battery replacement, and multiple adjustments are required to align the locking hole and the latch, resulting in low battery replacement efficiency.

[0042] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a side-mounted battery replacement locking structure and vehicle, comprising: a mounting assembly for being arranged on a battery assembly, the mounting assembly being provided with a first connection portion; a plug-in assembly for being arranged on one side of a vehicle frame, the plug-in assembly having a second connection portion, at least one of the mounting assembly and the plug-in assembly being provided with a guide portion, the plug-in assembly and the mounting assembly being correspondingly plugged in, and the guide portion being used to align the center line of the first connection portion with the center line of the second connection portion; a connector for connecting the first connection portion with the second connection portion. The guide portion provides a guiding and positioning function for the plug-in connection of the mounting assembly and the plug-in assembly, the plug-in assembly and the mounting assembly move relative to each other, and when correspondingly plugged in, the guide portion is used to align the first connection portion with the second connection portion, so that the connector is connected to the first connection portion and the second connection portion in sequence. As a result, the present application allows the battery assembly to be quickly and accurately positioned through the guide portion during the battery replacement process, thereby improving the battery replacement efficiency.

[0043] The following combination Figures 1 to 4 The present application is described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the side-mounted battery-swap locking structure and vehicle structure provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the mid-side mounted battery lock structure and the vehicle's structure from another perspective; Figure 3 for Figure 2 Partial cross-section of the AA section Figure 1 : Figure 4 for Figure 2 Partial cross-section of the AA section Figure 2 .

[0044] On the one hand, the present application provides a side-mounted battery replacement locking structure, including: an installation component 100, used to be set on the battery component 20, and a first connection part is provided on the installation component 100; a plug-in component 200, used to be set on one side of the frame 10, and the plug-in component 200 has a second connection part 130, and at least one of the installation component 100 and the plug-in component 200 is provided with a guide part 212, the plug-in component 200 is correspondingly plugged in with the installation component 100, and the guide part 212 is used to align the center line of the first connection part with the center line of the second connection part 130; a connector 300, used to connect the first connection part and the second connection part 130.

[0045] The plug-in assembly 200 can be a guide column, the mounting assembly 100 can be a mounting hole, the first connecting portion can be a stop hole, the second connecting portion 130 can be a threaded hole, and can be arranged at one end of the plug-in assembly 200 facing the mounting assembly 100. The connector 300 can be a bolt, and can be connected to the threaded hole through the stop hole. The present embodiment of the application does not limit the structure of the mounting assembly 100. For example, the mounting assembly 100 can include at least two mounting members 110, each of which has a first connecting portion, and each mounting member 110 is used to be spaced apart on the battery assembly 20; the plug-in assembly 200 can include at least two connectors 210, each of which is used to be spaced apart on one side of the vehicle frame 10, each connector 210 correspondingly connected to each mounting member 110, and the connector 210 has a second connecting portion 130 on one end facing the mounting member 110; and the connector 300 can be detachably connected to the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion 130 in sequence.

[0046] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the number of mounting members 110. For example, in actual applications, the number and spacing of mounting members 110 can be adjusted according to the size and weight of the battery assembly 20. For example, for larger and heavier battery assemblies 20, the number of mounting members 110 can be appropriately increased and the spacing can be reduced.

[0047] The plug assembly 200 works in conjunction with the mounting assembly 100 and includes at least two plug assemblies 200, each spaced apart on one side of the frame 10. During battery swapping, the plug assembly 200 moves along the extension direction of the mounting assembly 100 and connects with the corresponding mounting assembly 100, ensuring the accurate connection between the battery assembly 20 and the frame 10.

[0048] In particular, a second connection portion 130 is provided at one end of the mounting assembly 100 facing the plug assembly 200. The second connection portion 130 provides a connection point for a subsequent locking operation.

[0049] In some embodiments, the plug-in assembly 200 is provided with a conical end at one end facing the mounting assembly 100, which serves as a guide. When the battery assembly 20 is connected close to the vehicle frame 10, even if there is a certain positional deviation, the mounting assembly 100 can be smoothly aligned with the plug-in assembly 200 through the guidance of the conical surface. The battery replacement position is accurately positioned by the cooperation of the connector 210 and the mounting member 110, and the mounting assembly 100 and the plug-in assembly 200 move relative to each other to achieve aligned plugging. The connector 300 cooperates with the second connecting portion 130 on the mounting assembly 100 to achieve unlocking and locking. Since the locking direction is consistent with the plugging direction, battery replacement is more convenient. Therefore, the structure of the present application is relatively simple, the battery assembly 20 is accurately positioned during the battery replacement process, and the battery is relatively convenient to disassemble and assemble, thereby improving the efficiency of battery replacement.

[0050] The connector 300 is detachably connected to the plug-in assembly 200 through the second connecting portion 130. In this embodiment, the second connecting portion 130 is a threaded hole, and the connector 300 is a bolt. After the battery assembly 20 is initially plugged in through the mounting assembly 100 and the plug-in assembly 200, the operator can use the connector 300 to threadably connect it to the second connecting portion 130. By rotating the bolt, the bolt is gradually tightened, thereby firmly locking the battery assembly 20 to the frame 10. This method is not only simple and reliable, but also when the battery needs to be replaced, the locking state can be easily released by simply rotating the bolt in the opposite direction, thereby achieving rapid disassembly of the battery assembly 20 and greatly improving the battery replacement efficiency.

[0051] The side-mounted battery replacement locking structure in the embodiment of the present application facilitates accurate positioning of the battery replacement position on the vehicle frame 10 through the plug-in assembly 200, while the installation assembly 100 facilitates positioning of the battery replacement position on the battery assembly 20. The installation assembly 100 and the plug-in assembly 200 move relative to each other to achieve alignment and plugging, so that the battery assembly 20 is pre-fixed on the vehicle frame 10. Finally, the connector 300 is connected to the second connecting portion 130 on the installation assembly 100 to achieve locking, or the connector 300 is disconnected from the second connecting portion 130 to unlock, so that the installation assembly 100 and the plug-in assembly 200 can move relative to each other, and the two are disconnected, so that the battery assembly 20 is disconnected from the vehicle frame 10. The locking direction is consistent with the plug-in direction. When the battery needs to be replaced, it is only necessary to disconnect the connector 300, the second connecting portion 130, the installation assembly 100, and the plug-in assembly 200 in sequence, which makes battery replacement more convenient. Therefore, the structure of the present application is relatively simple, and the battery assembly 20 is accurately positioned and easily disassembled and locked during the battery replacement process.

[0052] The side-mounted battery replacement locking structure in the embodiment of the present application provides a guiding and positioning function for the insertion of the installation assembly 100 and the plug assembly 200 through the guide portion 212. The plug assembly 200 and the installation assembly 100 move relative to each other. When plugged in, the guide portion 212 aligns the first connecting portion with the second connecting portion 130, facilitating the connection of the connector 300 with the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion 130 in sequence. As a result, during the battery replacement process, the battery assembly 20 of the present application is quickly and accurately positioned through the guide portion 212, thereby improving the battery replacement efficiency.

[0053] In one possible implementation, in the side-mounted battery-changing locking structure in the embodiment of the present application, the end of the plug-in component 200 facing the installation component 100 is a conical end, and the conical end forms a guide portion 212, or a conical hole is provided on the installation component 100, and the conical hole forms a guide portion 212.

[0054] The guide portion 212 of the mounting assembly 100 is a conical hole, which is provided on the inner circumference of the mounting assembly 100. The guide portion 212 of the plug assembly 200 is a conical end, and the conical hole cooperates with the conical end to facilitate the plug-in guide function.

[0055] The second connecting portion 130 is positioned on the conical end. The centerline of the second connecting portion 130, the axis of the conical end, and the centerline of the connector 300 are all aligned. The diameter of the conical end facing the mounting member 110 is smaller than the diameter of the end facing away from the mounting member 110. This facilitates smoother guidance and positioning during insertion. The second connecting portion 130 is a threaded hole, and the connector 300 is a bolt, threadedly connected to the second connecting portion 130.

[0056] The second connection portion 130 is provided on the conical end, and the center line of the second connection portion 130 coincides with the axis of the conical end, thereby ensuring uniform distribution of the locking force during the connection process and improving the stability of the connection.

[0057] In one possible implementation, in the side-mounted battery-changing locking structure in the embodiment of the present application, the plug-in assembly 200 includes a connector 210 and a guide member. The connector 210 is used to be plugged into the installation assembly 100. The guide member is arranged at one end of the connector 210 facing the connector 300, and a guide portion 212 is provided on the guide member.

[0058] The connector 210 is cylindrical, which facilitates stable insertion into the mounting member 110. The guide member may have a conical end. During the entire battery replacement process, after the conical end completes the initial contact with the stopper 311, as the battery assembly 20 moves further, the contact area between the cylindrical connector 210 and the stopper 311 gradually increases, thereby providing a more stable limiting effect, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the connection between the battery assembly 20 and the frame 10, and providing smooth conditions for the subsequent locking operation of the connector 300.

[0059] In one possible implementation, in the side-mounted battery-changing locking structure in the embodiment of the present application, the mounting assembly 100 includes a mounting member 110, which is used to be plugged into the connector 210. A stop portion 311 is provided on the inner peripheral side of the mounting member 110, and the stop portion 311 is surrounded to form a first connecting portion. The stop portion 311 is used to abut against the guide portion 212 of the connector 200.

[0060] The stopper 311 has a limiting and fixing function. During the battery replacement process, the stopper 311 abuts against the conical end. When the battery assembly 20 moves toward the frame, the conical end first contacts the stopper 311. The stopper 311 limits the further movement of the connector 210 by contacting the conical end, thereby achieving preliminary limiting. This design can effectively prevent the connector 210 from excessive displacement during the connection process, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the connection. For example, in actual operation, regardless of whether the battery assembly 20 is moved by manual operation or automated equipment, the abutment between the stopper 311 and the conical end can play a stable role, ensuring that the relative position between the battery assembly 20 and the frame is accurate. At the same time, at least part of the connector 210 abuts against the stopper 311. This multiple abutment design enhances the limiting effect.

[0061] It should be noted that the stopper 311 is located in the middle of the mounting member 110 and is disposed around the inner circumference of the mounting member 110. The stopper 311 is used to abut the connector 210 to limit the position of the connector 210. The abutment between the stopper 311 and the connector 210 provides initial positioning and stability, preventing excessive displacement of the connector 210 during the connection process, thereby limiting the movement of the battery assembly 20 in the X and Z directions, as well as the rotational freedom.

[0062] In one possible implementation, in the side-mounted battery-changing locking structure in the embodiment of the present application, the guide portion 212 is provided at one end of the plug-in assembly 200 facing away from the connector 300 , and the guide portion 212 is used to abut against the installation assembly 100 .

[0063] The side of the guide portion 212 facing away from the connector 300 abuts against the mounting member 110 . The guide portion 212 has an inclined surface so that the connector 210 can enter the mounting hole 111 of the mounting member 110 along the inclined direction.

[0064] In the side-mounted battery-swap locking structure of the embodiment of the present application, there are at least two guide portions 212, each of which is disposed oppositely at both ends of the plug assembly 200. The guide diameter of the guide portion 212 facing away from the mounting assembly 100 is larger than the guide diameter of the guide portion 212 facing toward the mounting assembly 100. It should be noted that the inclination angle of each guide portion 212 can be designed according to actual conditions and is not limited in this application.

[0065] In one possible implementation, in the side-mounted battery-changing locking structure in the embodiment of the present application, the connector 300 includes a connecting portion and an abutting portion. The abutting portion is provided at the end of the connecting portion facing away from the plug assembly 200. The connecting portion is used to connect the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion 130, and the abutting portion is used to abut against the mounting assembly 100. The diameter of the abutting portion is larger than the diameter of the first connecting portion, and the diameter of the connecting portion is smaller than the diameter of the first connecting portion. For example, the connecting portion can be a screw and the abutting portion is a nut.

[0066] In one possible implementation, in the side-mounted battery-changing locking structure in the embodiment of the present application, the plug-in assembly 200 includes a connecting plate 230 and two plug-in plates 220. The two plug-in plates 220 are respectively arranged at both ends of the connecting plate 230. Each plug-in plate 220 is correspondingly connected to each plug-in component 210. The connecting plate 230 is used to be arranged on one side of the vehicle frame.

[0067] The connecting plate 230 is provided on one side of the vehicle frame, and the extending direction of the connecting plate 230 is consistent with the extending direction of the vehicle frame. The plug-in component 210 can be directly provided on the connecting plate 230 .

[0068] The two ends of the connecting plate 230 are provided with plug-in plates 220, and each plug-in plate 220 is correspondingly connected to each plug connector 210. Of course, in order to facilitate the adjustment of the plug-in position, the plug-in plates 220 can also be slidably arranged on the connecting plate 230.

[0069] In one possible implementation, in the side-mounted battery-changing locking structure in the embodiment of the present application, the mounting assembly 100 includes a mounting body 120 , a mounting component 110 is disposed on the mounting body 120 , a mounting hole 111 is disposed in the mounting component 110 , and the mounting hole 111 is connected to the connector 210 .

[0070] The mounting body 120 is a support frame, which is arranged above the battery assembly 20. The mounting part 110 is columnar, and a mounting hole 111 is provided in the mounting part 110. The mounting hole 111 is a through hole. The axis of the mounting hole 111 is in the same straight line as the center line of the mounting part 110. The mounting hole 111 is convenient for plugging with the connector 210.

[0071] On the other hand, the present application provides a vehicle comprising a vehicle body and a side-mounted battery-changing locking structure according to any one of the above-mentioned embodiments arranged on the vehicle body.

[0072] The embodiments of the present application do not limit the structure of the vehicle. The vehicle can be a large vehicle, a small vehicle, a special-purpose vehicle, or a sedan, an off-road vehicle, a multi-purpose vehicle, or an electric heavy truck, an electric light truck, etc.

[0073] The vehicle body includes a frame 10, and a connecting plate 230 is disposed on one side of the frame 10. The connecting plate 230 can be welded to the frame 10 or bolted thereto. The connector 210 can be disposed above, below, or to the side of the battery assembly 20. The battery assembly 20 includes multiple battery packs, which can be stacked one on top of the other.

[0074] In the actual battery replacement process, for example, in the battery replacement scenario of an electric vehicle, when the vehicle enters the battery replacement area, the battery replacement equipment will move the battery assembly 20 with the side-mounted battery replacement locking structure to the vicinity of the frame 10 of the vehicle to be replaced. First, the conical ends of the mounting member 110 and the connector 210 are used to guide the initial alignment and connection of the two. Then, the operator uses tools or automated equipment to screw the connector 300 (such as a bolt) into the second connecting part 130 (such as a threaded hole) to complete the locking installation of the battery assembly 20. The entire process is efficient and accurate, which can effectively reduce the battery replacement time and improve the efficiency of electric vehicles.
