[0031] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0032] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 5 A lifting device 100 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention is described.

[0033] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the lifting device 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes: a support platform 10, a first lifting assembly 20 and a second lifting member 30.

[0034] Specifically, a front positioning portion 11 and a rear positioning portion 12 are provided on the supporting platform 10, and the front positioning portion 11 and the rear positioning portion 12 are arranged at intervals in the front and rear directions. The front positioning portion 11 and the rear positioning portion 12 are used to position the wheels. A first lifting assembly 20 is provided on the supporting platform 10 and is located between the front positioning portion 11 and the rear positioning portion 12. The first lifting assembly 20 is used to lift the vehicle 200. A second lifting component 30 is provided on the supporting platform 10, and the second lifting component 30 is located on the rear side of the front end edge of the rear positioning portion 12. The second lifting component 30 is used to lift the vehicle 200.

[0035] The front-to-back direction refers to the front-to-back direction of the vehicle 200. During operation of the battery swap station, when a smaller vehicle 200 is being swapped, for example, a passenger car, the smaller vehicle 200 is driven onto the support platform 10, and the front positioning portion 11 and the rear positioning portion 12 position the wheels of the vehicle 200 so that the wheels stop at designated positions. The first lifting assembly 20 then lifts the vehicle 200, and the battery swap operation is then performed.

[0036] When a longer vehicle 200 is undergoing battery replacement, for example, when a truck is undergoing battery replacement, after the vehicle 200 travels to a designated position on the support platform 10, the first lifting assembly 20 lifts the front side of the vehicle 200, and the second lifting component 30 lifts the vehicle 200 at a position closer to the rear of the vehicle 200. In this way, the vehicle 200 has better stability after being lifted, and the battery of the long vehicle 200 can be replaced normally.

[0037] In this way, the lifting device 100 can meet the lifting needs of more types of vehicles 200 during the battery replacement process.

[0038] According to the lifting device 100 of the first embodiment of the present invention, by providing the first lifting assembly 20 and the second lifting component 30, the lifting needs of more types of vehicles 200 when changing batteries can be met, so that the battery swap station can realize the battery swap of more types of vehicles 200.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present invention, the distance between the first lifting assembly 20 and the second lifting member 30 in the front-to-back direction is 1m-1.5m. For example, the distance between the first lifting assembly 20 and the second lifting member 30 is 1m, 1.1m, 1.2m, 1.3m, 1.4m, or 1.5m. This allows the lifting device 100 to meet the lifting requirements of a wide range of vehicle models on the market. During the product design process, the distance between the first lifting assembly 20 and the second lifting member 30 can be adjusted to meet more product design requirements.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the second lifting member 30 is a hydraulic cylinder. Driven by a hydraulic pump 50, the hydraulic cylinder has a large lifting force, which can easily meet the lifting requirements of the battery swap station. Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder has high reliability, which can reduce the maintenance frequency of the battery swap station. Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder has a fast response speed, which can improve the battery swap efficiency.

[0041] In some embodiments of the present invention, there are one or more second lifting members 30. For example, there may be one, two, or three second lifting members 30. During product design, the number or position of the second lifting members 30 may be adjusted to meet various product design requirements.

[0042] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a dust cover 40 is mounted on the second lifting member 30. A clearance hole is formed on the upper side of the dust cover 40, through which the second lifting member 30 is adapted to pass to support the vehicle 200. The dust cover 40 reduces the impact of dust and other impurities on the second lifting member 30, thereby improving the reliability of the second lifting member 30.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first lifting assembly 20 includes a plurality of first lifting members 21. For example, the first lifting members 21 may be four, six or eight. The plurality of first lifting members 21 are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction and the front-back direction, and in the left-right direction, the second lifting member 30 is located between the plurality of first lifting members 21.

[0044] During the battery replacement process, when replacing the battery of a vehicle 200 of a shorter length, for example, a passenger car, the plurality of first lifting members 21 will jointly lift the vehicle 200 so that the vehicle 200 can perform normal battery replacement.

[0045] When replacing the battery of a longer vehicle 200, for example, when replacing the battery of a truck, multiple first lifting members 21 lift the vehicle 200 at the front side of the vehicle 200, and the second lifting members 30 lift the vehicle 200 at the rear side of the vehicle 200. In this way, the longer vehicle 200 is more stable after being lifted, so that the battery can be replaced normally.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an operation hole 13 is formed on the support platform 10, and the operation hole 13 passes through the support platform 10 from top to bottom. A plurality of first lifting members 21 are arranged around the operation hole 13. In this way, after the vehicle 200 is lifted, the operation hole 13 can provide more operating space under the vehicle 200, thereby reducing the difficulty of battery replacement.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the front positioning portion 11 and the rear positioning portion 12 each include a positioning hole, in which a plurality of rollers are disposed. The rollers are adapted to support the wheel. Thus, when the wheel is positioned on the rollers, dirt and other impurities that fall from the wheel can fall between the rollers and onto the support platform 10. This reduces the accumulation of dirt and other impurities on the support platform 10, thereby reducing the frequency of cleaning of the support platform 10.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the rear positioning portion 12 includes a first positioning portion 121 and a second positioning portion 122 , which are spaced apart in the left-right direction, and the second lifting member 30 is disposed between the first positioning portion 121 and the second positioning portion 122 .

[0049] Here, the left and right directions refer to the left and right directions of the vehicle 200. In this way, after the longer vehicle 200 is lifted, the second lifting member 30 can support the vehicle 200 in the middle of the rear side of the vehicle 200, thereby further improving the stability of the vehicle 200 after it is lifted.

[0050] Preferably, the front positioning portion 11 includes a third positioning portion 111 and a fourth positioning portion 112 , and the third positioning portion 111 and the fourth positioning portion 112 are spaced apart in the left-right direction.

[0051] The battery swap station according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes: the lifting device 100 according to the above-mentioned embodiment of the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0052] According to the battery swap station of the second embodiment of the present invention, battery swapping for more types of vehicles 200 can be achieved by providing the lifting device 100 according to the first aspect of the present invention.
