[0036] In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of the present disclosure clear and concise, the present disclosure omits detailed descriptions of some known functions and components.

[0037] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a universal battery replacement tool.

[0038] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a universal battery replacement tool structure according to a disclosed embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, a universal battery replacement tool of a disclosed embodiment includes:

[0039] The main frame 100 is used to be installed on various auxiliary mechanical equipment;

[0040] The inner frame 101 is movably provided on the main frame 100 and is used to carry a battery box or battery pack;

[0041] The inner frame 101 can extend into the battery cabinet.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the main frame 100 can be installed on the auxiliary mechanical equipment as an extension of the auxiliary mechanical equipment, converting the power of the auxiliary mechanical equipment into power for position change of the main frame 100, and moving the main frame 100 to the corresponding position of the battery cabinet.

[0043] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the battery box or battery pack is shown below: Figure 2 As shown, the inner frame 101 can be movably arranged on the main frame 100 , and the carried battery box or battery pack 200 can be sent into or taken out of the battery cabinet according to the relative movement of the inner frame 101 .

[0044] As one of the optional embodiments, the inner frame 101 can be movably arranged on the main frame 100 in a directional or non-directional manner.

[0045] If the inner frame 101 is directional and movable on the main frame 100, the movable direction of the inner frame 101 is fixed. If the inner frame 101 is non-directional and movable on the main frame 100, it is easy to change the movable direction of the inner frame 101 and facilitate the delivery of battery boxes or battery packs into the battery cabinet.

[0046] As one of the optional embodiments, the inner frame 101 is arranged on the main frame 100 using a rotating frame, so that the inner frame 101 can rotate on the main frame 100 to achieve non-directional movement.

[0047] As one of the optional embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the inner frame 101 is arranged inside the main frame 100 through a sliding structure 102;

[0048] The sliding structure 102 is used to enable the inner frame 101 and the main frame 100 to slide relative to each other.

[0049] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, the sliding structure 102 adopts a slide rail, the inner frame 101 is set on the slide rail, and the slide rail is set inside the main frame 100 to limit the moving direction of the inner frame 101 so that it can move in a certain direction.

[0050] As one of the optional embodiments, the universal battery replacement tool further includes a supporting structure provided on the inner frame 101;

[0051] Wherein, the supporting structure is used to support the battery box or battery pack.

[0052] The supporting structure supports the battery box or battery pack, which makes it easy to adapt to battery boxes or battery packs of different shapes and provides a platform for expanding the supporting function of the battery box or battery pack to meet different operating requirements.

[0053] As one of the optional embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, multiple rows of rollers 103 are provided on the supporting structure;

[0054] The battery box or battery pack can be rolled by means of the roller 103 .

[0055] By rolling the roller 103 , relevant operators can move the battery box or battery pack into or out of the battery cabinet, reducing the travel requirements of the inner frame 101 and improving work efficiency.

[0056] As one of the optional embodiments, the supporting structure further includes:

[0057] A flexible material layer is coated on the roller 103 .

[0058] The flexible material layer protects the battery box or battery pack, reducing damage caused by impact during operation. Preferably, the flexible material layer is a PU (polyurethane rubber) layer.

[0059] As one of the optional embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, anti-slip strips 104 are provided on both sides of the supporting structure.

[0060] The anti-slip strips 104 provided on both sides can assist the battery box or battery pack in sliding. Preferably, the anti-slip strips 104 are made of rubber strips.

[0061] As one of the optional embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, a positioning rod 105 and a limiting block 106 are provided on the upper side of the main frame 100 .

[0062] Among them, Figure 1 As shown, the positioning rod 105 facilitates positioning the main frame 100 to the working position. The limiting block 106 is provided on the main frame 100 to prevent the battery box or battery pack from sliding off from the upper side of the main frame 100.

[0063] As a preferred embodiment, it also includes:

[0064] Height-adjustable stand;

[0065] The main frame 100 is installed on various auxiliary mechanical equipment through the height adjustment bracket; wherein, the height adjustment bracket is used to adjust the relative height of the main frame 100 and the auxiliary mechanical equipment.

[0066] Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a height adjustment bracket structure according to a disclosed embodiment. Figure 3 As shown, the height adjustment bracket includes:

[0067] An upper bracket 300 for fixing to the main frame 100;

[0068] A lower bracket 301 for fixing to the auxiliary mechanical device;

[0069] Butterfly bolts 302 respectively cooperate with the upper bracket and the lower bracket.

[0070] By adjusting the upper bracket 300 and the lower bracket 301 at different positions of the butterfly bolt 302, the relative height of the main frame 100 and the auxiliary mechanical equipment is changed, thereby facilitating the expansion of the adaptability of the universal battery replacement tooling.

[0071] The universal battery replacement tool of any embodiment of the present disclosure includes a main frame 100 for use on various auxiliary mechanical equipment and an inner frame 101 movably mounted on the main frame 100. The inner frame 101 is used to support a battery box or battery pack. The inner frame 101 can be extended into a battery cabinet to insert or facilitate the insertion of a battery box or battery pack. Thus, the tool can be adapted to various auxiliary mechanical equipment and reduce operational limitations imposed by battery cabinet applications.

[0072] The present disclosure also provides a battery replacement system, including:

[0073] auxiliary mechanical equipment;

[0074] The universal battery replacement tool of any of the above embodiments.

[0075] Among them, auxiliary mechanical equipment can be flexibly selected according to the application scenario of the battery cabinet, such as using lifts or forklift equipment.

[0076] Figure 4The schematic diagram of the battery replacement system based on the elevator is shown in Figure 2. Figure 4 As shown, the universal battery replacement tool 401 can be set on the elevator 400. The universal battery replacement tool 401 on the elevator 400 is lifted to the corresponding position of the battery cabinet 402, and the universal battery replacement tool 401 sends the battery box or battery pack 200 into the battery cabinet 402.

[0077] Figure 5 The schematic diagram of the battery replacement system based on forklift equipment is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the universal battery replacement tool 401 can be set on the forklift equipment 500, and the universal battery replacement tool 401 on the forklift equipment 500 is lifted to the corresponding position of the battery cabinet 402, and the universal battery replacement tool 401 delivers the battery box or battery pack 200 into the battery cabinet 402.

[0078] It can be seen that the universal battery replacement tooling can not only meet the battery box or battery pack delivery and removal structure of the battery cabinet, but can also be flexibly deployed on various auxiliary mechanical equipment.

[0079] The battery replacement system of the disclosed embodiment includes auxiliary mechanical equipment and a universal battery replacement tool. The universal battery replacement tool includes a main frame for use on various types of auxiliary mechanical equipment and an inner frame that can be movably arranged on the main frame. The inner frame is used to support a battery box or battery pack. The inner frame can extend into a battery cabinet to deliver a battery box or battery pack into the battery cabinet or facilitate delivery of a battery box or battery pack into the battery cabinet. Therefore, it can adapt to various types of auxiliary mechanical equipment and reduce the operational limitations brought about by the application scenarios of the battery cabinet.
