Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of machinery, and in particular relates to a charging and swapping cabinet door structure and a charging and swapping cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, with social development and the rapid development of the electric vehicle industry, including private electric vehicles and delivery electric vehicles, battery swapping cabinets, as a part of this industry, also play an important role. The battery compartment and its door are closely related to users and directly affect the user experience, so they are areas that need to be carefully considered.
[0003] Most battery swapping cabinets on the market currently use a left-right opening door design, with the battery compartment fixed inside the cabinet and the door secured by an electromagnetic lock. Due to assembly and springback effects, after the electromagnetic lock is opened, the user usually needs to manually pry the door open completely, which is extremely inconvenient because it carries the battery. In addition, the battery is generally heavy and needs to be stuffed into the battery compartment of the cabinet, affecting the user's experience. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model discloses a charging and swapping cabinet door structure and a charging and swapping cabinet.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A charging and swapping cabinet door structure includes a door hinged to the bottom outer end of the battery compartment. A battery tray is also connected inside the battery compartment via a transverse sliding structure. A connecting piece is fixed to one side of the middle of the door. One end of a connecting rod is hinged to the connecting piece, and the other end of the connecting rod is hinged to one side of the battery tray.
[0007] A further improvement is that the battery tray is L-shaped or U-shaped.
[0008] As a further improvement, a sensor switch is installed at the top front end of the battery compartment.
[0009] A further improvement is that the inductive switch is a micro switch.
[0010] In a further improvement, the lateral movement structure includes a rack fixed to the bottom of the battery tray and extending from the rear end of the bottom of the battery tray to the front end. The rack is engaged with a gear, and the gear is connected to a motor.
[0011] In a further improvement, slide rails are installed on both sides of the rack, and the slide rails are fixed to the bottom of the battery compartment; sliding grooves are formed inward on both sides of the slide rails, and a U-shaped slider that cooperates with the slide rail is fixed to the bottom of the battery tray, and a limiting slider that cooperates with the sliding groove is raised on the inner side of the U-shaped slider.
[0012] A charging and swapping cabinet, wherein the charging and swapping cabinet is equipped with the above-mentioned charging and swapping cabinet door structure.
[0013] The advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. This utility model eliminates the need for users to insert batteries into the battery compartment; they only need to place the batteries on the battery tray, making it more time-saving and labor-saving for users.
[0015] 2. When opening automatically, the linkage structure ensures that the compartment door can be fully opened, preventing the compartment door from being partially opened and requiring the user to manually open it again. Attached Figure Description
[0016] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of this utility model;
[0017] Figure 2 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the battery tray;
[0018] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly structure between the battery tray and the slide rail. Detailed Implementation
[0019] Example 1
[0020] like Figures 1-3 The charging and swapping cabinet door structure shown includes a battery compartment 1, a door 2, a battery tray 3, a rack 31, a gear 32, a motor 33, a slide rail 34, a sliding groove 35, a U-shaped slider 36, a limit slider 37, a connecting piece 4, a connecting rod 5, and an induction switch 6.
[0021] The battery compartment 1 has slide rails 34 fixed on both sides of its bottom. The slide rails 34 are slidably connected to U-shaped sliders 36, and the top of the U-shaped sliders 36 is fixedly connected to the battery tray 3. In order to maintain the stability of the sliding, the middle of the slide rails 34 is concave to form a sliding groove 35, and the U-shaped sliders 36 are convex to form a limiting slider 37 that is inserted into the sliding groove 35.
[0022] A rack 31 is fixed to the bottom of the battery tray 3. The rack 31 meshes with a gear 32. The gear 32 is connected to a motor 33, thus forming a lateral movement structure that can drive the battery tray 3 to move back and forth.
[0023] The door 2 is hinged to the lower end of the battery compartment 1, and a connecting piece 4 is fixed in the middle. A pivot is fixed on the connecting piece 4, and one end of a connecting rod 5 is hinged to the pivot. The other end of the connecting rod 5 is hinged to an L-shaped or U-shaped battery tray 3 in the same way. Preferably, the battery tray 3 is U-shaped to facilitate limiting the placement of the batteries. A sensor switch 6, such as a micro switch, is installed at the top front end of the battery compartment 1.
[0024] The method of using this utility model is as follows: When the user needs to replace the battery, he / she controls the battery compartment of the empty compartment on the battery swapping cabinet to open through the mobile APP. At this time, the motor 33 drives the gear 32, which in turn pushes the battery tray 3 to move outward. The battery tray 3 automatically opens the compartment door 2 through the connecting rod 5. Then the user puts the battery to be charged on the battery tray 3 and then controls the battery compartment to close through the mobile APP. At this time, the motor 33 rotates in the opposite direction, which causes the battery tray 3 to move inward through the gear 32 and rack 31. At this time, the battery tray 3 drives the compartment door 2 to close through the connecting rod 5 until the compartment door 2 contacts the induction switch 6 to indicate that it has moved into place, and the motor 33 stops rotating. It is understandable that wireless control of the motor to rotate forward and reverse, as well as the use of inductive switch 6 to stop the motor, are existing technologies (such as the wireless remote control motor forward and reverse controller circuit diagram disclosed at http: / / www.crystalradio.cn / forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2145863, and the motor fiber switch principle disclosed at http: / / www.crystalradio.cn / forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2145863), therefore, they will not be described in detail.
[0025] Although the embodiments of this utility model have been disclosed above, they are not limited to the applications listed in the specification and embodiments. They can be applied to various fields suitable for this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other modifications can be easily made. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and their equivalents, this utility model is not limited to the specific details and the illustrations shown and described herein.
