Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machinery, and in particular to an AGV battery transport vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, under the national goal of achieving carbon neutrality and carbon peaking, pure electric vehicles, as a new energy vehicle, are being widely used. Pure electric vehicles are environmentally friendly and energy-saving. Heavy-duty pure electric trucks are one type of electric vehicle. Electric heavy-duty trucks are divided into charging and battery-swapping types. Charging electric heavy-duty trucks are constrained in their application and promotion due to their long charging time. Battery-swapping electric heavy-duty trucks can quickly complete battery swapping. As battery swapping solutions are continuously improved and swapping time is shortened, they have gained market acceptance. In many application scenarios, battery swapping stations are built to swap batteries for electric heavy-duty trucks. However, in some application scenarios, such as construction sites, short-term camps, and suburban mines, where there are high-frequency, short-cycle operation scenarios, where the battery swapping station is a certain distance from the transformer oil, it is not suitable to lay power lines. In these cases, the batteries need to be fully charged and transported to the battery swapping site. Good transportation mobility has become a new research topic. Utility Model Content
