Description

[0002] With the continuous development of ship electrification, the demand for battery replacement in electric ships is increasing. Currently, robots are used to replace batteries in electric ships, which shortens battery replacement time, reduces labor costs, and improves overall work efficiency.
[0003] Traditional shipboard battery swapping room lighting systems have several drawbacks. For example, the lighting fixtures are too densely arranged. Since the battery swapping room is an explosion-proof area, each battery area needs to be equipped with expensive explosion-proof lighting fixtures, which increases costs. During the battery swapping process, all lights need to be turned on to ensure sufficient lighting, resulting in significant energy waste. The battery swapping robot relies heavily on photosensitive sensors, such as photoelectric switches, smart cameras, and laser sensors, which have high requirements for the lighting environment. Traditional lighting systems cannot adjust the brightness in real time, which can easily cause sensor misjudgments and affect the operation of the battery swapping robot. Utility Model Content

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0025] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0026] Currently, existing ship battery swapping bays require a fixed light fixture for each battery area, illuminating the surrounding area. For example, if the swapping bay has six battery areas, four to six or more lights are needed to provide a high-level lighting environment for the swapping robot. Furthermore, since the swapping bay is an explosion-proof area, only explosion-proof lighting fixtures can be used, which are expensive, increasing costs. Additionally, all lights must remain on during the swapping process until the end, resulting in energy waste. Therefore, this invention provides a ship battery swapping device that uses a position adjustment component to fix a light source component below the swapping component, allowing the light source component to move with the swapping component. This reduces the number of lights required in the swapping area, saving costs, and the light source component is turned on when the swapping component is operating, thus saving energy.
[0027] Figure 1 This invention provides a structural schematic diagram of a shipboard battery swapping device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1As shown, the device includes: a battery swapping component 100, a pose adjustment component 400, and a light source component 200; one end of the pose adjustment component 400 is connected to the battery swapping component 100, and the other end is connected to the light source component 200, and the light source component 200 is detachably connected to the pose adjustment component 400, with the light-emitting surface of the light source component 200 facing the ship deck.
[0028] This application uses a pose adjustment component 400 to fix the light source component 200 below the power swapping component 100, so that the light source component 200 moves with the power swapping component 100. The pose adjustment component 400 can adjust the illumination angle of the light source component 200, thereby reducing the number of lamps in the power swapping area 500, saving costs, and turning on the light source component 200 when the power swapping component 100 is working, thereby saving energy.
[0029] In one optional embodiment, the pose adjustment component 400 includes a first adjustment member and a second adjustment member. One end of the second adjustment member is fixedly connected to one end of the first adjustment member, and the other end is connected to the light source component 200. The other end of the first adjustment member is detachably connected to the battery swapping component 100.
[0030] In order to provide a high level of light environment for the light source component 200 on the battery swapping component 100 when the battery swapping component 100 is working, a pose adjustment component 400 is used to adjust the illumination angle of the light source component 200, and the adjustment angle can be adjusted to 360°.
[0031] In this application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the pose adjustment component 400 includes a first adjustment member and a second adjustment member, wherein the first adjustment member can drive the light source component 200 to rotate in the vertical direction, and the second adjustment member can drive the light source component 200 to rotate in the horizontal direction.
[0032] Furthermore, one end of the first adjusting member is fixedly connected to the end of the battery swapping assembly 100 facing the ship deck, and the other end is connected to one end of the second adjusting member, and the other end of the second adjusting member is fixedly connected to the light source assembly 200.
[0033] The first adjusting component includes a first rotating shaft, a first driving component, a first supporting component, and a first connecting component. One end of the first supporting component is fixedly connected to the end of the battery swapping assembly 100 facing the ship deck, and the other end is rotatably connected to the first connecting component through the first rotating shaft. The first driving component is disposed inside the first supporting component, and the output shaft of the first driving component is fixedly connected to the end of the first rotating shaft away from the first connecting component. The first driving component drives the first rotating shaft to rotate, thereby driving the first connecting component to rotate in the vertical direction.
[0034] The first adjusting component includes a second rotating shaft, a second driving component, a second supporting component, and a second connecting component. One end of the second supporting component is fixedly connected to the end of the first connecting component away from the battery swapping assembly 100, and the other end is rotatably connected to the second connecting component through the second rotating shaft. The second driving component is disposed on one side of the second supporting component, and the output shaft of the second driving component is fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft. The second driving component drives the second rotating shaft to rotate, thereby driving the second connecting component to rotate in the horizontal direction.
[0035] In an optional embodiment, the device further includes a fixing member, wherein the light source assembly 200 is detachably connected to the pose adjustment assembly 400 via the fixing member, wherein the fixing member is a bolt or a clip.
[0036] In this application, the light source assembly 200 is fixed to the end of the second connector away from the battery swapping assembly 100 by bolts, thereby facilitating installation, disassembly and replacement.
[0037] In one optional embodiment, the light source assembly 200 includes a lighting lamp, a first sensor, and a controller, with the controller connected to the lighting lamp and the first sensor respectively; the lighting lamp, the first sensor, and the controller are all disposed on the battery swapping assembly 100, the first sensor is used to collect the ambient brightness value of the lighting lamp, and the controller is used to adjust the brightness of the lighting lamp.
[0038] Since the battery swapping unit 100 is equipped with a large number of photosensitive sensors, such as photoelectric switches, smart cameras and laser sensors, it has high requirements for the ambient light environment. Therefore, the current ambient light intensity is obtained through the first sensor to determine whether the current ambient light intensity meets the working requirements of the battery swapping unit 100. If it does not meet the requirements, the brightness of the lighting is adjusted by the controller until the current ambient light intensity meets the working requirements of the battery swapping unit 100.
[0039] Specifically, when the battery swapping component 100 arrives at the battery swapping area 500, it first collects the current brightness value of the battery swapping area 500 through the first sensor and determines whether the current brightness value meets the working requirements of the battery swapping component 100. If it does, the battery swapping component 100 performs a battery swapping operation. If it does not, the controller adjusts the brightness of the lighting until the current brightness value meets the working requirements of the battery swapping component 100, thereby improving the stability of the equipment and reducing the influence of the light source on the photoelectric sensor of the battery swapping component 100.
[0040] In one alternative embodiment, the lighting fixture is an explosion-proof lamp.
[0041] Since the battery swapping compartment is located in an explosion-proof area, explosion-proof lighting fixtures are used for the lighting.
[0042] In one optional embodiment, the battery swapping assembly 100 includes a mounting frame 300, the battery swapping assembly 100, and a second sensor. The mounting frame 300 is disposed on the ship deck, the battery swapping assembly 100 is disposed on the mounting frame 300, and the working area of the battery swapping assembly 100 faces the ship deck. The second sensor is disposed on the battery swapping assembly 100, and the area of the second sensor that collects images faces the ship deck. The second sensor is used to collect the position of the area 500 to be swapped.
[0043] Furthermore, the mounting frame 300 includes a first frame, a support frame, and a second frame with a track. The first frame is connected to the second frame via the support frame, and the end of the second frame with the track faces the first frame. The first frame is fixedly connected to the ship's deck by bolts, and the battery swapping assembly 100 is slidably connected to the second frame via the track.
[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, when the battery swapping component 100 needs to replace the battery pack in the battery swapping area 500, the battery swapping component 100 reaches the battery swapping area 500 according to the planned path. The second sensor collects the position of the battery swapping area 500. Based on the position of the battery swapping area 500, the pose adjustment component 400 is controlled to move so that the illumination angle of the lighting lamp is above the battery swapping area 500.
[0045] This invention uses a position adjustment component 400 to fix the lighting lamp to the battery swapping component 100, so that the lighting lamp moves with the battery swapping component 100, thereby reducing the number of lighting lamps and saving costs; the position adjustment component 400 adjusts the illumination angle of the lighting lamp to provide a high-quality light environment for the battery swapping component 100; and the controller adjusts the brightness of the lighting lamp to reduce the influence of the light source on the photoelectric sensor of the battery swapping component 100, thereby improving the stability of the equipment. At the same time, the lighting lamp is only turned on when the battery swapping component 100 is working, so as to save energy.
[0046] Figure 4 This utility model provides a structural schematic diagram of a ship battery swapping system, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the system includes: the aforementioned ship battery swapping device and processor;
[0047] The processor is connected to both the first sensor and the controller. The processor is used to send a brightness adjustment signal to the controller based on the ambient brightness value collected by the first sensor.
[0048] Optionally, the processor is connected to the second sensor and the pose adjustment component 400 respectively, and the processor is used to: send a light source component adjustment angle signal to the pose adjustment component 400 according to the battery pack working area collected by the second sensor.
[0049] Specifically, when the battery pack replacement in the area to be replaced begins, the processor sends a command to the battery swapping assembly to move the battery swapping assembly to the area to be replaced;
[0050] Then, the first sensor collects the current brightness value of the environment and sends it to the processor. The processor determines whether the current brightness value meets the preset brightness value required for the operation of the battery swapping component. If it does, it proceeds to the next step; otherwise, it determines the adjustment brightness value based on the current brightness value and the preset brightness value. Based on the adjustment brightness value, it generates a brightness adjustment command and sends it to the controller. The controller executes the brightness adjustment command to make the brightness of the lighting reach the preset brightness value. Then, the second sensor collects image information of the area to be swapped and sends the location information to the processor. Based on the location information, the processor determines the illumination angle of the lighting and generates an adjustment command based on the illumination angle. The adjustment command is sent to the pose adjustment component 400, which executes the adjustment command to make the illumination angle of the lighting reach a specified position, where the illumination range of the lighting covers the area to be swapped. Finally, the battery swapping component replaces the battery pack in the area to be swapped.
[0051] This utility model also provides a ship, including: the above-mentioned ship battery swapping system and the ship body.
