[0039] The following is a clear and complete description of the technical solution of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating positions or relationships, are based on the positions or relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are intended solely to facilitate the description of this utility model and simplify the description. They do not indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0041] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.

[0042] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0043] like Figure 1 The figure shows a preferred embodiment of the battery module delivery device of the present invention. This battery module delivery device is suitable for transporting battery modules 5 to a high- and low-temperature chamber for testing. Furthermore, the device facilitates adjustment within the confined space within the chamber to fully utilize the test space within the chamber. This allows for simultaneous testing of multiple battery modules 5 within the chamber, improving space utilization within the chamber and enhancing testing efficiency.

[0044] The above-mentioned battery module box delivery device includes: a walking component 1, a frame component 2 and a control component. The frame component 2 is arranged on the walking component 1, and the battery module 5 is placed in the frame component 2. The control component is connected to the walking component 1 for communication, so as to control the movement of the walking component 1. After the battery module 5 is installed in the frame component 2, the walking component 1 is controlled by the control component to move to the specified position. The battery module 5 is transported to the high and low temperature box, the battery test line is connected to the battery module 5 and tested, and the battery module 5 is transported out of the box after the test. Since the position of the battery module 5 in the box can be changed by controlling the movement of the walking component 1 through the control component, it is convenient to move in the narrow internal space of the high and low temperature box, so that the test space in the box can be fully utilized, and as many groups of battery modules 5 as possible can be placed for testing, and the test efficiency is high.

[0045] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, the traveling assembly 1 comprises a chassis 11 and running tracks 12 disposed on either side of the chassis 11. The frame assembly 2 is mounted on the chassis 11. The running tracks 12 have good grip and are less likely to slip when traveling up or down slopes, providing greater stability during transportation and protecting the battery modules 5 from damage. Furthermore, the running tracks 12 have a large load-bearing area, which reduces the pressure on the bottom of the high-temperature and low-temperature chamber, making the high-temperature and low-temperature chamber less likely to be damaged by the battery modules 5.

[0046] In other embodiments, the walking tracks 12 may also be replaced by wheels or the like.

[0047] The travel assembly 1 is also provided with a signal receiving processor 31 and a differential speed controller 32. The signal receiving processor 31 is in communication with the differential speed controller 32, which is in communication with the travel tracks 12. The signal receiving processor 31 is used to receive control signals from the control assembly and then transmit the control signals to the differential speed controller 32, which controls the movement of the travel tracks 12.

[0048] Furthermore, the control component includes a remote control, which is equipped with a signal generating processor. The signal generating processor communicates with the signal receiving processor 31, thereby achieving remote wireless control through the remote control. Specifically, during operation, the corresponding button on the remote control is pressed to issue a command. After receiving the command, the signal generating processor sends a corresponding control signal to the signal receiving processor 31. The signal receiving processor 31 transmits the control signal to the differential controller 32, which then controls the two walking tracks 12 to perform corresponding actions, such as forward, reverse, turning (achieved by the differential speed of the two walking tracks 12), acceleration, deceleration, etc.

[0049] In addition, the battery module delivery device also includes an energy supply assembly disposed on the chassis 11. The energy supply assembly includes a battery 41. The battery 41 is electrically connected to the travel assembly 1 and is used to power the drive motor of the travel track 12. In addition, the battery 41 also powers the signal receiving processor 31 and the differential controller 32.

[0050] Furthermore, the energy supply component also includes a power display and a charger arranged on the chassis 11. The power display can display the power of the battery 41 in real time. If the power is insufficient, it can be charged and supplemented by the charger.

[0051] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, the frame assembly 2 includes: a protective frame 21 and a limiting mechanism 22 disposed in the protective frame 21. In this embodiment, the protective frame 21 is a square frame with an open top. In addition, a plurality of wire grooves are provided on the side walls of the protective frame 21 to facilitate the connection of the battery test wires with the battery module 5 in the protective frame 21. Specifically, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, wire passing grooves are provided on all four sides of the protection frame 21 , and two wire passing grooves spaced apart from each other are provided on each side wall of the protection frame 21 .

[0052] In other embodiments, the wire grooves may be provided on any one, two or three side walls of the protective frame 21, and the number of wire grooves on each side wall may be one, three, etc. The shape of the wire grooves may be square, circular or other shapes.

[0053] In addition, the protection frame 21 is an insulating frame made of insulating material, which prevents a short circuit from occurring when the protection frame 21 contacts the metal tabs of the battery module 5 .

[0054] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism 22 includes a plurality of telescopic knobs 221 arranged around the inner wall of the protection frame 21. Figure 6 As shown, the telescopic knob 221 includes: a fixed portion 2211 and a telescopic portion 2212. The fixed portion 2211 is provided on the inner wall of the protection frame 21. The telescopic portion 2212 is threadedly connected to the fixed portion 2211, so that the telescopic portion 2212 can be extended or retracted by rotating it. Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, two sets of limiting mechanisms 22 are spaced apart, one above the other. Each set of limiting mechanisms 22 includes four telescopic knobs 221 disposed on the four sides of the inner wall of the protective frame 21. After the battery module 5 is placed in the protective frame 21, the positions of the four telescopic knobs 221 are adjusted so that they support the battery module 5 from all sides, achieving positional fixation.

[0055] In other embodiments, the telescopic knob 221 may also be a spring-type knob or other types.

[0056] Furthermore, the battery module box delivery device also includes an anti-collision alarm component, which includes: an alarm module and multiple distance measuring modules. The multiple distance measuring modules are arranged around the protective frame 21 and are used to detect the distance between the protective frame 21 and the surrounding objects in real time. The alarm module can be arranged on the chassis 11 and communicated with the distance measuring module. In addition, the alarm module and the distance measuring module can also be powered by a battery. The distance measuring module can pre-set a judgment value or a judgment value range. When the distance between the protective frame 21 and the surrounding objects reaches the judgment value or enters the judgment value range, a corresponding signal is sent to the alarm module. The alarm module will emit a warning sound, light, etc. to remind the operator that a collision may occur, and the operator needs to adjust the movement path of the box delivery device in time.

[0057] The following describes the use process of the battery module box delivery device of this embodiment:

[0058] First, place the battery module 5 in the protective frame 21, then adjust the position of the telescopic knob 221 to firmly fix the battery module 5 from all sides. Then, use the remote control to move the device into the high and low temperature box. After adjusting it to the appropriate position in the box, connect the battery test line for testing. After the test is completed, come out of the high and low temperature box. Since the box delivery device is easy to adjust its position in the high and low temperature box, as many box delivery devices as possible can be placed in the high and low temperature box at one time, and multiple groups of battery modules 5 can be tested at the same time, which improves the space utilization of the high and low temperature box and also improves the detection efficiency.

[0059] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above descriptions are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
