Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery rack technology, specifically a battery rack for a battery swapping station. Background Technology

[0002] Battery racks are standardized frames made of metals such as iron and aluminum, designed to fit the size of batteries. They are widely used in industry and also play an important role in telecommunications equipment rooms and medical equipment. Battery racks are mainly divided into: 2V series battery racks, 12V series battery racks, and FT series battery racks. These are the most commonly used battery racks and have the widest application.

[0003] Existing battery racks in battery swapping stations typically support batteries by mounting three horizontal support beams on the rack, and then placing the batteries on these beams. Since the support beams are fixed to the rack, if the battery is too wide or too narrow, a large portion of the battery may protrude beyond the support beams, while a small battery may not have its front and rear ends resting on them. In either case, the battery may fall off the support beams. To provide support based on the battery's width, a new battery rack for battery swapping stations has been proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a battery rack for battery swapping stations, which has the advantage of being easy to support according to the width of the battery.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-2 A battery rack for a battery swapping station includes a support frame 1, which is symmetrically distributed on both sides; a rectangular tube 2, which is used to support the battery; and a connecting beam 3, which is fixedly connected between the front and rear side walls of the support frame 1. A fixing block that is fixedly connected to the connecting beam 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rectangular tube 2 at the rear, so that the rectangular tube 2 will not move.

[0022] Among them, reinforcing ribs 6 are fixedly installed between the two supporting frames 1 on opposite sides and near the top and bottom of the supporting frame 1, which are used to connect and fix the two supporting frames 1 together. The reinforcing ribs 6 are X-shaped to enhance the connection strength of the two supporting frames 1.

[0023] In addition, a movable seat 7 that is slidably connected to the connecting beam 3 is fixedly connected to the front wall of the front connecting frame 45. The movable seat 7 can move back and forth. The side shape of the movable seat 7 is L-shaped. A crossbar 8 is inserted in the movable seat 7 to block the front of the battery and restrict the battery placed on the rectangular tube 2 from sliding out. The side walls of the movable seat 7 and the crossbar 8 are connected to magnets 9 that attract each other, restricting the crossbar 8 inserted in the movable seat 7 from moving on its own.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 It also includes a distance adjustment component 4, which includes a movable frame 41, a positioning groove 42, a positioning screw 43, a movable frame 44, a connecting frame 45, and a movable rod 46. The movable frame 41 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the support frame 1 and slides up and down on the outer surface of the support frame 1. The top view shape of the movable frame 41 is C-shaped. A movable frame 5 that is slidably connected to the support frame 1 is fixedly connected at the node of the movable frame 41. The top view shape of the movable frame 5 is U-shaped.

[0025] Furthermore, the positioning groove 42 is opened on the side wall of the support frame 1, and a row of positioning grooves 42 is opened on the side wall of the support frame 1. The positioning screw 43 passes through the movable frame 41 and is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the positioning groove 42 to fix the position of the movable frame 41 that moves up and down. The movable frame 44 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the movable frame 41 and slides back and forth on the outer surface of the movable frame 41. The connecting frame 45 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the connecting beam 3 and slides back and forth on the outer surface of the connecting beam 3. The other two rectangular tubes 2 are fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame 45. The movable frame 44 and the connecting frame 45 are both U-shaped.

[0026] Meanwhile, the movable rod 46 is hinged between the movable frame 44 and the rectangular tube 2 on opposite sides. With the connection of the movable rod 46, the movable frame 44 can push the rectangular tube 2 to move. Since the rectangular tube 2 is also hinged to the adjacent movable rod 46, and the length of the movable rod 46 is the same, the distance between the rectangular tubes after they move is equal. Then, the position of the rectangular tube 2 is adjusted according to the width of the battery, so that the rectangular tube 2 is close to the front end, middle and rear end of the battery, thereby effectively supporting the battery and preventing the battery from falling off the rectangular tube 2. The rectangular tube 2 and the movable frame 44 are both hinged to the movable rod 46 through hinge seats.

[0027] In this embodiment, when using the device, confirm the width of the battery, pull the movable frame 41, and with the movable rod 46 connected to the rectangular tube 2 and the movable frame 44, the movable frame 44 moves on the outer surface of the movable frame 41, and drives the two rectangular tubes 2 located in front to move back and forth along the outer surface of the connecting beam 3 with the connection frame 45, so that the rectangular tubes 2 move closer to each other or separate from each other. After adjustment, use the positioning screw 43 to connect the movable frame 41 to the inner wall of the positioning groove 42 to position the movable frame 41, place the battery on the rectangular tube 2, and insert the crossbar 8 into the movable seat 7 to complete the placement of the battery. When taking it out, pull out the crossbar 8 and take out the battery.

[0028] The beneficial effects of the above embodiments are as follows:

[0029] The battery rack in this battery swapping station uses an adjustable spacing component 4. After the adjustable spacing component 4 is used, the movable frame 41 moves up and down, and the movable rods 46 are connected to the movable frame 44 and the rectangular tube 2. This allows the rectangular tube 2 to move along the outer surface of the connecting beam 3 under the connection of the connecting frame 45. Since the lengths of each movable rod 46 are equal, and the rectangular tube 2 is connected to the adjacent movable rods 46, the spacing between the rectangular tubes 2 is equal after movement. This allows the position of the rectangular tube 2 to be adjusted according to the width of the battery, so that the rectangular tube 2 is close to the front, middle and rear of the battery, thus effectively supporting the battery and preventing the battery from falling off the rectangular tube 2.
