TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of battery replacement, in particular to a battery replacement cabinet. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the increasing popularity of electric bicycles and electric tricycles, the charging of their batteries has become more and more serious in many residential areas. Based on this situation, the battery replacement cabinet has emerged. The battery replacement cabinet can provide users with battery replacement services. Users only need to replace their low-capacity batteries with high-capacity batteries, without waiting for the charging process. This can solve the current serious charging form and improve the user experience.

[0003] However, the current battery replacement cabinet needs to be maintained during use, and may need to be modified according to the use requirements. However, during the modification and maintenance, the battery replacement cabinet body needs to be disassembled, resulting in high modification cost and low maintenance efficiency.

[0004] On the other hand, when users take the batteries, they will be inconvenient due to the limitation of the battery compartment. Invention content

[0005] The present application provides a battery replacement cabinet that is convenient to modify and maintain, reduces maintenance cost, and makes it easier for users to take batteries.

[0006] The present application is achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0007] The present application provides a battery replacement cabinet, which includes a battery compartment cabinet body and a plurality of charging positions. The battery compartment cabinet body has a plurality of access openings. The plurality of charging positions are arranged in the battery compartment cabinet body. Each charging position is arranged corresponding to an access opening. The charging position includes a charging position frame and a charging plug. The charging position frame is detachably connected to the battery compartment cabinet body. The charging position frame is used to accommodate batteries. The charging plug is connected to the charging position frame. The charging plug is used to plug and cooperate with the battery. The charging position further includes a battery pushing module. The battery pushing module is connected to the charging position frame. The battery pushing module is used to push the battery in the charging position frame to move to the access opening.

[0008] In the above embodiment, by arranging the battery pushing module, when the user needs to take the battery, the battery pushing module is activated to push the battery located in the charging position frame to the taking and placing opening, so as to facilitate the user to take. The charging position frame is detachably connected to the battery cabinet body, which can facilitate the modification and maintenance of the battery cabinet. For example, during the modification, the charging position module can be adaptively selected and matched according to the use demand of the user, so as to reduce the modification cost. When the charging position module needs to be maintained, the charging position module can be separately disassembled and maintained, and the battery cabinet body does not need to be disassembled, so as to improve the maintenance efficiency and reduce the maintenance cost.

[0009] In some embodiments, the charging position module further comprises a guide assembly arranged in the charging position frame, and the guide assembly is used to guide the battery to move in the preset direction from the taking and placing opening to the charging position frame, so that the battery is plugged with the charging plug.

[0010] In the above embodiment, the preset direction is the direction in which the taking and placing opening points to the charging plug. By arranging the guide assembly, the user can make the battery plugged with the charging plug during the process of placing the battery in the charging position frame, without manually connecting the charging plug to the battery or manually adjusting the position of the battery to make the battery plugged with the charging plug, thereby improving the use convenience and experience of the user.

[0011] In some embodiments, the charging position frame comprises a bottom plate used to carry the battery in the first direction; and the guide assembly comprises two limiting blocks arranged on the bottom plate, the two limiting blocks are oppositely arranged in the second direction, and the two limiting blocks are used to cooperate to guide the battery to move in the preset direction, and the preset direction, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0012] In the above embodiment, by arranging the two limiting blocks oppositely arranged in the second direction, the guide assembly can limit the battery in the second direction, and by arranging the bottom plate for placing the battery, the battery can be limited in the first direction, so that the battery can move in the preset direction during the placing process, thereby realizing the plugging of the battery with the charging plug.

[0013] In some embodiments, the limiting block comprises a guide surface and a positioning surface, the guide surface and the positioning surface are connected, and in the preset direction, the guide surface is closer to the taking and placing opening than the positioning surface; wherein the positioning surfaces of the two limiting blocks are parallelly arranged, and the distance between the guide surfaces of the two limiting blocks gradually decreases in the direction in which the taking and placing opening points to the charging position frame.

[0014] In the above embodiment, the guide surface and the positioning surface are different parts of the limiting block. The guide surface is used for guiding during the process of placing the battery into the charging position frame, so as to facilitate the placement of the battery. The positioning surface is used for positioning the battery, so that during the process of placing the battery into the charging position frame, the battery can be guided to achieve the plug-in cooperation with the charging plug, and the positioning surface can also keep the position fixed after the battery is plugged into the charging plug, so as to avoid the poor contact during the charging of the battery.

[0015] In some embodiments, the guide assembly further comprises a roller module, the roller module is arranged on the bottom plate, and the roller module comprises a roller for guiding the movement of the battery in a preset direction. By arranging the roller module, the movement of the battery can be assisted during the taking and placing process of the battery.

[0016] In some embodiments, the roller module comprises a bearing plate, and the roller is rotatably arranged on the bearing plate, and the bearing plate is arranged on the bottom plate.

[0017] In the above embodiment, by arranging the roller module on the guide assembly, the battery contacts the roller on the roller module during the taking and placing process, so that the roller module can assist the movement of the battery during the movement of the battery, so as to facilitate the execution of the taking and placing action of the battery.

[0018] In some embodiments, the bearing plate has a bearing surface facing away from the bottom plate in a first direction, and the roller partially protrudes from the bearing surface and points to the charging position frame in the direction of the taking and placing opening. The bearing surface is arranged obliquely downward.

[0019] In the above embodiment, the bearing surface is arranged obliquely downward, so that when the battery is carried on the bearing plate, the battery has a tendency to move obliquely downward, so as to achieve the auxiliary movement and the guiding effect when the battery is placed from the taking and placing opening into the charging position frame, and then the battery is moved to the position of the charging plug under the assistance of the roller module.

[0020] In some embodiments, the charging position frame has a receiving space for receiving the battery, and the receiving space has opposite front and rear ends in a preset direction. The front end is closer to the taking and placing opening than the rear end, and the charging plug is located at the rear end.

[0021] In the above embodiment, the charging plug is located at the rear end, so that the battery is plugged into the charging plug during the process of being placed and moved into the receiving space. And because the charging plug is connected to the charging position frame, when the battery is plugged into the charging plug during the process of being moved into the charging position frame, the charging plug can also limit the battery, so as to prevent the battery from continuing to move deeper into the charging position frame in the preset direction.

[0022] In some embodiments, the charging position framework has a receiving space for receiving the battery, the charging position framework comprises a bottom plate, a top plate and two side plates, the bottom plate, the top plate and the two side plates enclose the receiving space, and at least one of the bottom plate, the top plate and the side plates is provided with a heat dissipation hole.

[0023] In the above embodiments, the heat dissipation hole can be arranged on the bottom plate, the top plate or the side plate, or on both the bottom plate and the top plate, or on all of the bottom plate, the top plate and the side plate. By arranging the heat dissipation hole on the charging position framework, the heat dissipation performance of the battery can be improved, the damage to the battery can be reduced, and the risk of the battery replacement cabinet caused by local high temperature can be reduced.

[0024] In some embodiments, the charging position module comprises a battery lock connected to the charging position framework, the battery lock is used to lock the battery to the charging position framework in an unlockable manner, and the charging plug is arranged on the battery lock. Through the above arrangement, the charging plug is arranged on the battery lock, and when the battery is charging, the battery lock locks the battery to the charging position framework, so that the battery in charging cannot be taken out, thereby improving the charging safety of the battery.

[0025] In some embodiments, the battery replacement cabinet further comprises an electrical compartment, the electrical compartment comprises an electrical compartment cabinet body and a charging assembly, the charging assembly is located in the electrical compartment cabinet body, the charging assembly is electrically connected with the charging plug, and the electrical compartment cabinet body is arranged on the top of the battery compartment cabinet body. The electrical compartment cabinet body is arranged on the top of the battery compartment cabinet body so that the electrical compartment cabinet body can be centrally protected, the protection performance is improved, and the cost of setting protection is reduced.

[0026] In some embodiments, a first ventilation channel is formed in the electrical compartment cabinet body, the electrical compartment cabinet body is provided with an air outlet, the air outlet is in communication with the first ventilation channel; a second ventilation channel is formed in the battery compartment cabinet body, the charging position module is located in the second ventilation channel, the battery compartment cabinet body is provided with an air inlet, the air inlet is in communication with the second ventilation channel; the first ventilation channel and the second ventilation channel are in communication; and the electrical compartment further comprises a fan, the fan is arranged in the first ventilation channel.

[0027] In the above embodiment, through the arrangement, a whole flow channel can be formed from the air outlet on the electrical cabinet body to the air inlet arranged on the battery cabinet body. On the one hand, through the arrangement of the flow channel, air can flow in the flow channel and take away the heat emitted by the charging potential module in the flow channel in the process of air flow, so as to improve the heat dissipation performance of the charging potential module. On the other hand, because the flow channel is arranged integrally, the heat dissipation device is less, and the investment cost can be reduced. The fan can form air pressure in the formed flow channel to guide the flow direction of the air in the flow channel. By arranging the air outlet as the air outlet and the air inlet as the air inlet, the air flow can be preferentially contacted with the charging potential module in the battery cabinet body, and the temperature of the flowing air is relatively lower, so that the heat dissipation of the charging potential module can be better realized. In comparison, the electrical cabinet itself will also emit heat due to various electrical components. If the air flow direction is from the air outlet to the air inlet, the air flowing through the electrical cabinet preferentially will carry the heat in the electrical cabinet, and then the air flowing through the charging potential module will have a higher temperature, and then the heat dissipation performance of the charging potential module will be reduced.

[0028] Additional aspects and advantages of the application will be set forth in part in the description that follows, and in part will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon examination of the following description and drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0050] The embodiments of the present application provide a battery replacement cabinet, please refer to Figures 1-3 , Figure 1 The structural schematic diagram of the battery replacement cabinet provided for some embodiments of the present application; Figure 2A structural schematic diagram of the charging position module 20 provided for some embodiments of the present application in a state of accommodating the battery 30 is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 3 An exploded structural schematic diagram of the charging position module provided for some embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 2. The battery cabinet body 10 has a plurality of access openings 101, and the charging position modules 20 are arranged in the battery cabinet body 10. Each charging position module 20 is arranged in correspondence with one access opening 101. The charging position module 20 includes a charging position frame 201 and a charging plug 202. The charging position frame 201 is detachably connected to the battery cabinet body 10 and is used to accommodate the battery 30. The charging plug 202 is connected to the charging position frame 201 and is used to be plugged with the battery 30. The charging position module 20 includes a battery pushing module 204. The battery pushing module 204 is connected to the charging position frame 201 and is used to push the battery 30 in the charging position frame 201 to move to the access opening 101.

[0051] The access opening 101 is used for taking and placing the battery 30. In use, the user takes the battery 30 with high power from the charging position module 20 through the access opening 101 and places the battery 30 with low power in the charging position module 20. Each charging position module 20 is arranged in correspondence with one access opening 101. Each charging position module 20 is used to place one battery 30 and perform charging operation. The charging plug 202 is connected with a charging assembly 50 (not shown in the figure). The charging assembly 50 can be located in the battery cabinet body 10 or outside the battery cabinet body 20. When the battery 30 is plugged with the charging plug 202, the battery 30 is charged under the cooperation of the charging assembly 50.

[0052] The battery cabinet body 10 can include a first cabinet body 102 and a first cabinet door 103. The first cabinet door 103 is connected to the first cabinet body 102 through a hinge. The first cabinet body 102 can be provided with a partition beam. The charging position module 20 can be arranged on the partition beam. The access opening 101 can be arranged on the first cabinet door 103 or the first cabinet body 102.

[0053] The charging position frame 201 can only include a bottom plate 2011. The battery 30 is carried by the bottom plate 2011.

[0054] The charging position framework 201 can include a bottom plate 2011 and a side plate 2013, and the side plate 2013 can be used to limit the battery 30 on both sides. In some examples, when the charging position framework 201 includes the side plate 2013 arranged on the opposite two sides, the two adjacent charging position modules 20 can share one side plate 2013, and when the charging position framework 201 is disassembled, the shared side plate 2013 can be disassembled with one of the two charging position modules 20. The side plate 2013 can also be arranged between the two adjacent charging position modules 20, that is, one charging position module 20 is arranged with two opposite side plates 2013.

[0055] The charging position framework 201 can also include a bottom plate 2011, a side plate 2013, and a top plate 2012, and the top plate 2012 can be used to limit the battery 30 in the height direction. In some examples, the battery compartment cabinet 10 includes multiple layers of partition beams in the height direction, and at least one charging position module 20 is placed on each layer of partition beams, and the bottom plate 2011 of the upper charging position module 20 can serve as the top plate 2012 of the lower charging position module 20. In other examples, each charging position module 20 can be provided with a separate top plate 2012.

[0056] According to the specific needs of the battery 30 that needs to be replaced, the charging plug 202 can be selectively provided as a male plug or a female plug.

[0057] The battery pushing module 204 can include a drive motor, a cylinder, and other components, and in the activated state, the battery pushing module 204 pushes the battery 30 from the charging position framework 201 to the taking and placing opening 101.

[0058] By providing the battery pushing module 204, when the user needs to take the battery 30, the battery pushing module 204 is activated to push the battery 30 from the charging position framework 201 to the taking and placing opening 101, so as to facilitate the user to take the battery 30.

[0059] In the above examples, the charging position framework 201 is detachably connected to the battery compartment cabinet 10, which can facilitate the modification and maintenance of the battery replacement cabinet. For example, during modification, the charging position module 20 can be adaptively selected and matched according to the user's use requirements, which can reduce the modification cost. When the charging position module 20 needs to be maintained, the charging position module 20 can be individually disassembled and maintained, and the battery compartment cabinet 10 does not need to be disassembled, which can improve the maintenance efficiency and reduce the maintenance cost.

[0060] In order to make the effect of the present application more clear, in order to reduce the modification cost, the common battery replacement cabinet for two-wheeled vehicles and three-wheeled vehicles on the market is taken as an example. At present, the specific battery replacement cabinet is usually set according to the demand in the specific production process. After the production is completed, the type of the battery replacement cabinet is fixed and it is difficult to modify. In the present application, because the charging position frame 201 in the charging position module 20 is detachably connected to the battery cabinet body 10, the corresponding type of battery replacement cabinet can be set according to the use demand in the early stage. After the production is completed, when the use scene changes and the type of the battery replacement cabinet needs to be modified (switched between the types of the battery replacement cabinet for two-wheeled vehicles and three-wheeled vehicles), the charging position module 20 can be directly replaced to achieve the purpose of reducing the modification cost.

[0061] In some embodiments, still referring to Figures 1-3 , the charging position module 20 further comprises a guide assembly 203, the guide assembly 203 is arranged on the charging position frame 201, and the guide assembly 203 is used for guiding the battery 30 to move in a preset direction X from the taking and placing opening 101 into the charging position frame 201, so that the battery 30 is plugged and matched with the charging plug 202.

[0062] The preset direction is the direction of the movement of the battery 30 from the taking and placing opening 101 into the charging position frame 201, and the preset direction X is unidirectional.

[0063] In the above embodiment, through the arrangement of the guide assembly 203, the user can make the battery 30 plugged and matched with the charging plug 202 during placing the battery 30 on the charging position frame 201, without manually connecting the charging plug 202 to the battery 30 or manually adjusting the position of the battery 30 to make the battery 30 plugged and matched with the charging plug 202, thereby improving the user's convenience and experience.

[0064] In some embodiments, still referring to Figures 1-3 , the charging position frame 201 comprises a bottom plate 2011, the bottom plate 2011 is used for bearing the battery 30 in a first direction Y. The guide assembly 203 comprises two limiting blocks 2031, the limiting blocks 2031 are arranged on the bottom plate 2011, and the two limiting blocks 2031 are oppositely arranged in a second direction Z. The two limiting blocks 2031 and the bottom plate 2011 can be used for cooperating to guide the battery 30 to move in the preset direction X, and the preset direction X, the first direction Y and the second direction Z are perpendicular to each other.

[0065] In the production process of the charging position frame 201, in order to facilitate the taking and placing of the battery 30, the length, width and height of the charging position frame 201 are set to include a margin. When the charging plug 202 is connected to the charging position frame 201, the margin makes it difficult to directly plug the battery 30 and the charging plug 202 during the placing of the battery 30 in the charging position frame 201.

[0066] Therefore, in the above embodiment, by arranging two limiting blocks 2031 arranged in the second direction Z, the guiding assembly 203 can limit the battery 30 in the second direction Z. By arranging the bottom plate 2011 on which the battery 30 is placed, the battery 30 can be limited in the first direction Y. Thus, the battery 30 can move in the preset direction X during the placing process, and the battery 30 and the charging plug 202 can be plugged together.

[0067] In some embodiments, still referring to Figures 1-3 and further referring to Figure 4 , Figure 4 The structure diagram of the limiting block 2031 provided in some embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 6. The limiting block 2031 includes a guiding surface 20311 and a positioning surface 20312. The guiding surface 20311 is connected to the positioning surface 20312. In the preset direction X, the guiding surface 20311 is closer to the taking and placing opening 101 than the positioning surface 20312. The positioning surfaces 20312 of the two limiting blocks 2031 are arranged in parallel. The distance between the guiding surfaces 20311 of the two limiting blocks 2031 gradually decreases in the direction from the taking and placing opening 101 to the charging position frame 201.

[0068] In the above embodiment, the guiding surface 20311 and the positioning surface 20312 are different parts of the limiting block 2031. The guiding surface 20311 is used for guiding during the placing of the battery 30 in the charging position frame 201, so as to facilitate the placing of the battery 30. The positioning surface 20312 is used for positioning the battery 30, so that the battery 30 can be guided to be plugged with the charging plug 202 during the placing of the battery 30 in the charging position frame 201. After the battery 30 is plugged with the charging plug 202, the positioning surface 20312 can keep the position fixed, so as to avoid the poor contact of the battery 30 during the charging process.

[0069] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 and further refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5A structural schematic diagram of a roller module is provided for some embodiments of the present application. The guiding assembly 203 further comprises a roller module 2032, which is arranged on the bottom plate 2011. The roller module 2032 comprises rollers 20321 for guiding the battery 30 to move along the preset direction X.

[0070] The rollers 20321 can be arranged directly on the bottom plate 2011, which carries the battery 30. During the process of taking and placing the battery 30, the rollers 20321 arranged on the bottom plate 2011 can assist the movement of the battery 30. The roller module 2032 can also be a component independent of the bottom plate 2011. For example, the roller module 2032 can comprise a carrier plate 20322, and the rollers 20321 are arranged on the carrier plate 20322, and the carrier plate 20322 is arranged on the bottom plate 2011.

[0071] In the above embodiment, by arranging the roller module 2032, the movement of the battery 30 can be assisted during the process of taking and placing the battery 30.

[0072] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the roller module 2032 comprises a carrier plate 20322, and the rollers 20321 are rotatably arranged on the carrier plate 20322, and the carrier plate 20322 is arranged on the bottom plate 2011.

[0073] The carrier plate 20322 can be used to arrange the rollers 20321 and carry the battery 30 during movement. The carrier plate 20322 can carry the battery 30 during the entire movement process of taking and placing, or can carry the battery 30 during a certain stage. When the carrier plate 20322 carries the battery 30, the rollers 20321 are in contact with the battery 30 and assist the movement of the battery 30 in the preset direction X. The carrier plate 20322 is arranged on the bottom plate 2011, which can be directly connected to the bottom plate 2011; or the carrier plate 20322 and the bottom plate 2011 are not directly connected, but are only relatively fixed. For example, when the charging position frame 201 comprises a side plate 2013, the carrier plate 20322 can be connected to the side plate 2013.

[0074] In the above embodiment, by arranging the roller module 2032 on the guiding assembly 203, the battery 30 is in contact with the rollers 20321 on the roller module 2032 during the process of taking and placing, so that the roller module 2032 can assist the movement of the battery 30 during the movement of the battery 30, to facilitate the execution of the taking and placing action of the battery 30.

[0075] In some embodiments, still referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 andFigure 5 The carrier plate 20322 has a carrier surface 203221 facing away from the bottom plate 2011 along the first direction Y, and the portion of the roller 20321 protrudes from the carrier surface 203221 and points to the charging potential frame 201 along the direction of the taking and placing opening 101. The carrier surface 203221 is arranged in a downward inclined manner.

[0076] As an example, the carrier plate 20322 has a support surface 203222 facing the bottom plate 2011 along the first direction Y, and the support surface 203222 is in contact with the bottom plate 2011. The angle between the carrier surface 203221 and the support surface 203222 is a, which can be 1-10°. When the support surface 203222 is in contact with the bottom plate 2011, the support surface 203222 can be in a horizontal position.

[0077] It can be understood that a can be an integer value of 1°, 2°, 3°, 4°, 5°, 6°, 7°, 8°, 9°, or 10°, or a decimal value between two integer values.

[0078] In the above embodiment, the carrier surface 203221 is arranged in a downward inclined manner, so that the battery 30 has a tendency to move downwardly when the battery 30 is carried on the carrier plate 20322, thereby achieving the auxiliary movement and guiding effect of the battery 30 when the battery 30 is placed on the charging potential frame 201 from the taking and placing opening 101, and further achieving the movement of the battery 30 to the position of the charging plug 202 with the assistance of the roller module 2032.

[0079] In a specific application scenario, the guiding assembly 203 can use any one of the limiting block 2031 and the roller module 2032, or a combination of the two.

[0080] In some embodiments, still referring to Figures 1-3 The charging potential frame 201 has a receiving space for receiving the battery 30, and along the preset direction X, the receiving space has opposite front and rear ends 2015 and 2016, the front end 2015 is closer to the taking and placing opening 101 than the rear end 2016, and the charging plug 202 is located at the rear end 2016.

[0081] As an example, the charging potential frame 201 can include a bottom plate 2011, side plates 2013, and a top plate 2012, and the bottom plate 2011, the top plate 2012, and the two side plates 2013 enclose the receiving space for placing the battery 30. Along the preset direction, one end of the top plate 2012 is located at the front end 2015, and the other end is located at the rear end 2016.

[0082] In the above embodiment, the charging plug 202 is located at the rear end 2016, so that the battery 30 is in plug-in cooperation with the charging plug 202 during the process of being placed and moved into the battery accommodating space of the battery charging frame 201. And because the charging plug 202 is connected to the battery charging frame 201, the charging plug 202 can also limit the battery 30 during the process of being moved into the battery charging frame 201, so as to prevent the battery 30 from continuing to be deeply inserted into the battery charging frame 201 along the preset direction X when being in plug-in cooperation with the charging plug 202.

[0083] In some embodiments, still referring to Figures 1-3 , the battery charging frame 201 has a battery accommodating space for accommodating the battery 30, and the battery charging frame 201 comprises a bottom plate 2011, a top plate 2012 and two side plates 2013, which enclose the battery accommodating space, and at least one of the bottom plate 2011, the top plate 2012 and the side plates 2013 is provided with a heat dissipation hole 2014.

[0084] In the above embodiment, the heat dissipation hole 2014 can be provided only on the bottom plate 2011, the top plate 2012 or the side plate 2013, or on both the bottom plate 2011 and the top plate 2012, or on all of the bottom plate 2011, the top plate 2012 and the side plate 2013. By providing the heat dissipation hole 2014 on the battery charging frame 201, the heat dissipation performance of the battery 30 can be improved, the damage to the battery 30 can be reduced, and the risk of the battery swap cabinet due to local high temperature can also be reduced.

[0085] In some embodiments, still referring to Figures 1-3 , the battery charging frame 201 is provided with a battery lock 205, the battery lock 205 is connected to the battery charging frame 201, the battery lock 205 is used to lock the battery 30 to the battery charging frame 201 in an unlockable manner, and the charging plug 202 is arranged on the battery lock 205. Through the above arrangement, the charging plug 202 is arranged on the battery lock 205, and when the battery 30 is charging, the battery lock 205 locks the battery 30 to the battery charging frame 201, so that the battery 30 in charging cannot be taken out, thereby improving the charging safety of the battery 30.

[0086] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , Figure 6 is a structural schematic diagram of a battery swap cabinet provided by another embodiment of the present application; Figure 7The structure diagram of the electrical compartment (both the outer door and the inner door are in the open state) is provided for some embodiments of the present application. The battery replacement cabinet also includes an electrical compartment, which includes an electrical compartment cabinet body 40 and a charging assembly 50. The charging assembly 50 is located in the electrical compartment cabinet body 40, and the charging assembly 50 is electrically connected with the charging plug 202. The electrical compartment cabinet body 40 is arranged on the top of the battery compartment cabinet body 10.

[0087] The electrical compartment cabinet body 40 can include a second cabinet body 401 and a second cabinet door. The second cabinet door can include an inner cabinet door 402 and an outer cabinet door 403, which are respectively hinged to the second cabinet body 401 to realize the opening and closing of the inner cabinet door 402 and the outer cabinet door 403. The inner cabinet door 402 and the second cabinet body 401 can jointly form an enclosed space, and the charging assembly 50 can be arranged in the enclosed space. The outer cabinet door 403 can be used to reduce the influence of the external environment on the equipment in the electrical compartment cabinet body 40, and the inner cabinet door 402 can be used to fix some equipment in the electrical compartment cabinet body 40.

[0088] The charging assembly 50 includes various components for charging the battery 30, such as a charger, a circuit protection assembly, a charging protection assembly, etc. The electrical compartment cabinet body 40 is arranged on the top of the battery compartment cabinet body 10 to enable centralized protection of the electrical compartment cabinet body 40, improve the protection performance, and reduce the cost of setting up the protection. For example, the outer side of the electrical compartment cabinet body 40 is provided with waterproofing. Because the electrical compartment cabinet body 40 is arranged on the top of the battery compartment cabinet body 10 as a whole, the waterproofing can be arranged in a centralized manner, which improves the protection performance and reduces the cost of setting up the waterproofing.

[0089] In some embodiments, still referring to FIGS. Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the electrical compartment cabinet body 40 is internally formed with a first ventilation channel. The electrical compartment cabinet body 40 is provided with an air outlet 404, which is in communication with the first ventilation channel. The battery compartment cabinet body 10 is internally formed with a second ventilation channel. The charging site module 20 is located in the second ventilation channel. The battery compartment cabinet body 10 is provided with an air inlet 104, which is in communication with the second ventilation channel. The first ventilation channel and the second ventilation channel are in communication. The electrical compartment also includes a fan 60, which is arranged in the first ventilation channel.

[0090] In the above embodiment, through the arrangement, an integrated flow channel can be formed from the air outlet 404 on the electrical cabinet body 40 to the air inlet 104 arranged on the battery cabinet body 10. On the one hand, through the arrangement of the flow channel, air can flow in the flow channel, and in the process of air flow, the heat emitted by the charging potential module 20 located in the flow channel can be taken away, so as to improve the heat dissipation performance of the charging potential module 20. On the other hand, because the flow channel is integrally arranged, the heat dissipation device is less, and the investment cost can be reduced. The fan 60 can form air pressure in the formed flow channel to guide the flow direction of the air in the flow channel. By arranging the air outlet 404 as an air outlet and arranging the air inlet 104 as an air inlet, the air flow can be preferentially contacted with the charging potential module 20 located in the battery cabinet body 10, and at this time, the temperature of the flowing air is relatively lower, which can better realize the heat dissipation of the charging potential module 20. In comparison, the electrical cabinet itself will also emit heat due to the existence of various electrical components. If the air flow direction is from the air outlet 404 to the air inlet 104, the air flowing through the electrical cabinet first will take away the heat in the electrical cabinet, and then the air flowing through the charging potential module 20 will have a higher temperature, which will cause the heat dissipation performance of the charging potential module 20 to decrease.

[0091] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , Figure 8 the structural schematic diagram of the electrical cabinet provided by some embodiments of the present application (the outer door is in the open state and the inner door is in the closed state); Figure 9 the structural schematic diagram of the electrical cabinet provided by some embodiments of the present application (showing the bottom structure of the cabinet body). When the electrical cabinet body includes a second cabinet body 401, an inner cabinet door 402 and an outer cabinet door 403, the fan 60 can be arranged on the inner cabinet door 402, and a filter 405 can also be arranged at the position corresponding to the area of the fan 60 on the inner cabinet door 402. The filter 405 can be used to block and adsorb sundries in the first ventilation channel, so as to avoid the influence of the sundries on the electrical cabinet. When the electrical cabinet body 40 is dissipating heat, under the driving of the fan 60, air can flow in from the through hole arranged at the bottom of the second cabinet body 401, pass through the enclosed space, then flow out from the position where the filter 405 is arranged on the inner cabinet door 402, and finally flow out from the gap formed between the outer cabinet door 403 and the second cabinet body 401, so as to complete the heat dissipation of the electrical cabinet body 40.
