Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery swapping, and in particular to a positioning component and a battery swapping device including the same. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, vehicle exhaust emissions remain a significant contributor to environmental pollution. To address this issue, researchers have developed natural gas vehicles, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, solar-powered vehicles, and electric vehicles to replace gasoline-powered cars. Among these, electric vehicles hold the most promise for future applications, and their energy replenishment typically occurs through charging or battery swapping.

[0003] During battery swapping, the battery pack is typically disassembled using swapping equipment. When there is a vertical misalignment between the swapping equipment and the battery pack, the tray within the swapping equipment needs to be moved horizontally. Currently, a motor drives the tray along a slide rail via a slider to adjust the horizontal misalignment between the battery pack and the swapping equipment. When connecting the motor, slider, and tray, the two ends of a lead screw are connected to the motor and a limit block, respectively. Both the motor and the limit block are fixed to the base, and the lead screw passes through the slider to drive it to slide along the lead screw. When there is a connection error between the motor, slider, and limit block, the sliding directions of the slider and tray are not exactly the same. However, since the slider and tray are connected by bolts, this can cause a force resistance problem between them, making the slider and tray prone to deformation and affecting their service life. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defect in the prior art that when there are errors in the motor, slider and limit block, force resistance will occur between the slider and the tray, and to provide a positioning component and a power swapping device including the same.

[0005] The present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems through the following technical solution:

The moving component is connected to the positioning platform and is used to drive the positioning platform to move. The moving component and the positioning platform are floatingly connected in at least a first direction, wherein the first direction is not parallel to the movement direction of the moving component and / or the positioning platform.

[0007] In this solution, by adopting the above-mentioned structural form, when the sliding direction of the moving part and the positioning platform is not exactly the same due to manufacturing errors, installation deviations, or the use process, the moving part and the positioning platform can float at least in the first direction, so that the moving part and the positioning platform can be finely adjusted in the first direction. This can prevent force resistance between the moving part and the positioning platform, help prevent deformation of the moving part and the positioning platform, and improve the service life of the moving part and the positioning platform.

[0008] Preferably, one of the positioning platform and the moving member has a receiving cavity, and the other extends into the receiving cavity.

[0014] Preferably, the second moving part has a weight reduction hole.

[0015] The above-mentioned structural form can reduce the weight of the second moving part, thereby reducing the weight of the second moving part without affecting the structural strength and rigidity.

[0016] Preferably, the first moving part has a first mounting hole, and the second moving part has a second mounting hole.

[0022] The limiting member is connected to one end of the driving member that passes through the moving member, and is used to restrict the movement of the moving member.

[0023] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form can provide power to the moving part through the driving component, thereby driving the moving part to move; the limiting component can limit the range of movement of the moving part, prevent the moving part from falling off the driving component, and improve the safety and stability of the movement of the moving part.

[0024] Preferably, the battery swapping device further includes a base, and the driving member and the limiting member are both connected to the base.

[0025] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form is adopted, which allows the driving component and the limiting component to be located on the same reference plane, thereby improving the overall structural stability and safety of the positioning component, preventing displacement or damage caused by vibration or impact of the driving component and the limiting component, and improving the overall structural strength of the positioning component.

[0026] Preferably, the battery swapping equipment further includes a base, and the positioning component further includes a guide member disposed between the base and the positioning platform for guiding the positioning platform.

[0027] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form can be used to guide the movement of the positioning platform through the guide component, so that the positioning platform can move along a certain route, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the positioning platform's movement.

[0028] Preferably, the guide includes a slider and a guide rail extending along the moving direction of the positioning platform, the slider and the guide rail being slidably engaged, one of which is disposed on the base and the other is disposed on the surface of the positioning platform facing the base.

[0029] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form is adopted, with the slider and guide rail working together to provide guidance for the movement of the positioning platform while improving the stability and reliability of the positioning platform's movement; in addition, the cooperation between the slider and guide rail also reduces the friction of the positioning platform's movement.

[0030] Preferably, the guide members are provided on both sides of the positioning platform along the direction of movement of the positioning platform.

[0031] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form is adopted, which further improves the stability and reliability of the positioning platform's movement.

[0032] Preferably, the positioning platform includes a first positioning plate and a second positioning plate, both of which cooperate with the guide member to guide the first positioning plate and the second positioning plate through the guide member.

[0033] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form is adopted.

[0034] Preferably, the guide includes a first guide portion for cooperating with the second positioning plate. In the vertical direction, the projection of the first positioning plate at least partially covers the first guide portion, and a portion of the second positioning plate extends below the first positioning plate to cooperate with the first guide portion.

[0035] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form is adopted so that the second positioning plate can cooperate with the first guide part, thereby providing guidance for the second positioning plate through the first guide part.

[0036] Preferably, the second positioning plate includes a first connecting plate and a second connecting plate. The first connecting plate is located above the first positioning plate and spans the first positioning plate in a direction that is not parallel to the moving direction of the positioning platform. One end of the second connecting plate is connected to the first connecting plate, and the other end extends toward the first guide portion for cooperating with the first guide portion.

[0037] The second connecting plate and the first connecting plate form a receiving groove with an opening facing the first positioning plate, for accommodating the first positioning plate.

[0038] In this design, the aforementioned structural form is adopted, with the first connecting plate spanning the first positioning plate in a direction not parallel to the moving direction of the positioning platform. This reduces the space occupied by the positioning platform and improves the compactness of the positioning platform structure. The receiving groove prevents interference between the first and second positioning plates, improving the stability and reliability of their movement while simultaneously enabling the second positioning plate to cooperate with the first guide portion.

[0039] Preferably, the first positioning plate and the second positioning plate share the first guide portion.

[0043] This utility model discloses a battery swapping device, which includes a positioning component as described in any of the preceding claims.

[0044] In this solution, the above-mentioned positioning component is applied to the battery swapping equipment, which allows the positioning platform or moving part extending into the receiving cavity to float in the first direction with the wall of the receiving cavity. This enables the moving part and the positioning platform to be finely adjusted in the first direction, thereby preventing force resistance between the moving part and the positioning platform, which helps to prevent deformation of the moving part and the positioning platform and improves the service life of the moving part and the positioning platform.

[0045] Preferably, the positioning component further includes a driving member and a limiting member, the driving member passing through the moving member to drive the moving member to move;

[0046] The limiting member is connected to one end of the driving member that passes through the moving member, and is used to restrict the movement of the moving member.

[0048] Preferably, the battery swapping device further includes a base, and the driving member and the limiting member are both connected to the base.

[0049] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form is adopted, which allows the driving component and the limiting component to be located on the same reference plane, thereby improving the overall structural stability and safety of the positioning component, preventing displacement or damage caused by vibration or impact of the driving component and the limiting component, and improving the overall structural strength of the positioning component.

[0050] Preferably, there are multiple positioning components, which are spaced apart along the length and / or width of the battery swapping device.

[0105] The present invention will be described more clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings, using a preferred embodiment.

[0106] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, this embodiment provides a positioning component 100, which is used on a battery swapping device 1000. The positioning component 100 includes a positioning platform 1 and a moving component 2. The moving component 2 is connected to the positioning platform 1 and is used to drive the positioning platform 1 to move. The moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1 are floatingly connected at least in a first direction. The first direction can be implemented in the following ways: First implementation, the first direction is not parallel to the movement direction of the moving component 2; Second implementation, the first direction is not parallel to the movement direction of the positioning platform 1; Third implementation, the first direction is not parallel to the movement directions of both the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1.

[0107] In this embodiment, the moving component 2 is connected to the positioning platform 1, and the moving component 2 drives the positioning platform 1 to move together. At this time, the movement directions of the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1 are the same, so the first direction is not parallel to the movement directions of the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1. With the above-mentioned structural form, when the sliding directions of the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1 are not exactly the same due to manufacturing errors, installation deviations, or the use process, the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1 can at least float in the first direction, so that the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1 can be finely adjusted in the first direction. This can prevent force resistance between the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1, which is beneficial to prevent deformation of the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1 and improves the service life of the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1.

[0108] In practical use, the movement direction of the moving part 2 and the positioning platform 1 is the X direction. At this time, the first direction is any direction that is not parallel to the X direction.

[0109] like Figure 7 As shown, a positioning platform 1 and a moving component 2 are included, one of which has a receiving cavity 11, and the other extends into the receiving cavity 11. There is a gap between the positioning platform 1 or the moving component 2 extending into the receiving cavity 11 and the inner wall of the receiving cavity 11, at least in a first direction. This structural configuration allows the positioning platform 1 or the moving component 2 extending into the receiving cavity 11 to float relative to the wall of the receiving cavity 11 in the first direction. This enables fine-tuning between the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1 in the first direction, preventing force resistance between them, thus helping to prevent deformation and improving their service life.

[0110] In this embodiment, as Figure 7 As shown, a receiving cavity 11 is formed on the side of the positioning platform 1 facing the moving part 2. The moving part 2 extends into the receiving cavity 11 and has a gap with the inner wall surface of the receiving cavity 11 in a first direction. Furthermore, to facilitate the processing of the positioning platform 1, the positioning platform 1 includes a first part 14 and a second part 15, which are detachably connected by bolts. The receiving cavity 11 is formed at the end of the first part 14 facing the moving part 2 and extends through the first part 14 in the direction in which the moving part 2 extends into the receiving cavity 11.

[0111] It should be specifically noted that the first direction is perpendicular to the movement direction of the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1. This structural configuration further increases the floating range of the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1 in the first direction, thereby facilitating fine-tuning between the moving component 2 and the positioning platform 1 in that direction.

[0112] like Figure 1As shown, in actual use, the movement direction of the moving part 2 and the positioning part is the X direction, and the first direction is the Y direction and the Z direction.

[0113] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the moving part 2 includes a first moving part 21 and a second moving part 22, which are connected. The end of the second moving part 22 away from the first moving part 21 is floatingly connected to the positioning platform 1 at least in a first direction. This structural design means that if either the first moving part 21 or the second moving part 22 is damaged, only the damaged part 21 or the second moving part 22 needs to be replaced for normal operation, thus reducing operating costs.

[0114] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the second moving part 22 is provided with a weight reduction hole 23, which can reduce the weight of the second moving part 22. This allows the weight of the second moving part 22 to be reduced without affecting the structural strength and rigidity, which in turn helps to improve the response speed of the moving part 2 and reduce the vibration and noise caused by excessive weight, thereby improving the smoothness and reliability of the movement of the moving part 2.

[0115] In practical use, the weight-reducing hole 23 passes through the second moving part 22 in a vertical direction, thereby further reducing the weight of the second moving part 22.

[0116] like Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the first moving part 21 has a first mounting hole 211, and the second moving part 22 has a second mounting hole 221. At least a portion of the first mounting hole 211 and the second mounting hole 221 overlap along their axial directions, allowing the connecting part to pass through. With this configuration, the connecting part can pass through the first mounting hole 211 and the second mounting hole 221, achieving a detachable connection between the first moving part 21 and the second moving part 22. In other embodiments, the first moving part 21 and the second moving part 22 may also employ other connection methods; therefore, the specific connection method of the first moving part 21 and the second moving part 22 is not limited here.

[0117] In practical use, the first mounting hole 211 and the second mounting hole 221 completely overlap along their axial directions, thereby further facilitating the passage of the connecting part. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the connecting part is a bolt; in other embodiments, the form of the connecting part can be adjusted according to actual needs and is not limited here.

[0118] Preferred, such as Figure 9As shown, there are multiple first mounting holes 211 and multiple second mounting holes 221, with each of the multiple first mounting holes 211 and multiple second mounting holes 221 connected in a one-to-one correspondence; the multiple second mounting holes 221 are circumferentially arranged on the outer periphery of the weight reduction hole 23. This structural configuration improves the stability and reliability of the connection between the first moving part 21 and the second moving part 22.

[0119] In this embodiment, four first mounting holes 211 and four second mounting holes 221 are used as an example for illustrative purposes. In other embodiments, the number of first mounting holes 211 and two mounting holes 221 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and is not limited here.

[0120] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the positioning component 100 also includes a driving member 3 and a limiting member 4. The driving member 3 passes through the moving member 2 to drive the moving member 2 to move. The limiting member 4 is connected to one end of the driving member 3 that passes through the moving member 2, and is used to restrict the movement of the moving member 2. With the above structure, the driving member 3 can provide power to the moving member 2, thereby driving the moving member 2 to move; the limiting member 4 can limit the range of movement of the moving member 2, prevent the moving member 2 from falling off the driving member 3, and improve the safety and stability of the movement of the moving member 2.

[0121] In practical use, such as Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the driving member 3 passes through the first moving part 21, and the driving member 3 includes a motor 31 and a lead screw 32. The motor 31 drives the lead screw 32 to rotate, and the lead screw 32 passes through the first moving part 21, thereby causing the first moving part 21 to move along the extension direction of the lead screw 32. The end of the lead screw 32 away from the motor 31 is connected to the limiting member 4. In this embodiment, the limiting member 4 is a limiting block. In other embodiments, the form of the limiting member 4 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and is not limited here.

[0122] like Figure 11 As shown, the battery swapping equipment 1000 also includes a base 200, on which the drive component 3 and the limiting component 4 are both connected. This structural configuration allows the drive component 3 and the limiting component 4 to be located on the same reference plane, improving the overall stability and safety of the positioning assembly 100, preventing displacement or damage caused by vibration or impact on the drive component 3 and the limiting component 4, and enhancing the overall structural strength of the positioning assembly 100.

[0123] In this embodiment, both the driving component 3 and the limiting component 4 are detachably connected to the base 200 by bolts. In other embodiments, the driving component 3 and the limiting component 4 may also be connected to the base 200 in other ways, and the specific connection method is not limited here.

[0124] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the positioning component 100 also includes a guide member 5, which is disposed between the base 200 and the positioning platform 1, and is used to guide the positioning platform 1. With the above-described structure, the guide member 5 can provide guidance for the movement of the positioning platform 1, enabling the positioning platform 1 to move along a certain route, thus improving the stability and reliability of the positioning platform 1's movement.

[0125] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the guide member 5 includes a slider 51 and a guide rail 52 extending along the moving direction of the positioning platform 1. The slider 51 and the guide rail 52 are slidably engaged, with one of them disposed on the base 200 and the other disposed on the surface of the positioning platform 1 facing the base 200. With this structure, the slider 51 and the guide rail 52 cooperate to guide the movement of the positioning platform 1 while improving the stability and reliability of the movement of the positioning platform 1; in addition, the cooperation between the slider 51 and the guide rail 52 also reduces the frictional force of the positioning platform 1.

[0126] In this embodiment, the guide rail 52 is disposed on the base 200, and the slider 51 is disposed on the surface of the positioning platform 1 facing the base 200.

[0127] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the positioning platform 1 includes a first positioning plate 12 and a second positioning plate 13. Both the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13 cooperate with the guide member 5 to guide the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13 through the guide member 5. With this structure, the guide member 5 provides guidance for the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13, allowing them to move along the extension direction of the guide member 5, thus improving the stability and reliability of their movement.

[0128] In this embodiment, the example of having a guide member 5 on both sides of the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13 is used for illustrative purposes. In other embodiments, the number of guide members 5 on both sides of the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13 can be adjusted according to actual needs and is not limited here. The guide member 5 includes a first guide portion 53 for cooperating with the second positioning plate 13. In the vertical direction, the projection of the first positioning plate 12 at least partially covers the first guide portion 53, and a portion of the second positioning plate 13 extends below the first positioning plate 12 to cooperate with the first guide portion 53. With the above structural form, the second positioning plate 13 can cooperate with the first guide portion 53, thereby providing guidance for the second positioning plate 13 through the first guide portion 53.

[0129] The second positioning plate 13 includes a first connecting plate 132 and a second connecting plate 135. The first connecting plate 132 is located above the first positioning plate 12 and spans across the first positioning plate 12 in a direction not parallel to the moving direction of the positioning platform 1. One end of the second connecting plate 135 is connected to the first connecting plate 132, and the other end extends towards the first guide portion 53 for cooperation with the first guide portion 53. The second connecting plate 135 and the first connecting plate 132 form a receiving groove 131 with an opening facing the first positioning plate 12 for accommodating the first positioning plate 12. With the above structure, the first connecting plate 132 spans across the first positioning plate 12 in a direction not parallel to the moving direction of the positioning platform 1, reducing the space occupied by the positioning platform 1 and improving the compactness of the positioning platform 1 structure. The receiving groove 131 prevents interference between the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13, improving the stability and reliability of the movement of the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13, while realizing the cooperation between the second positioning plate 13 and the first guide portion 53.

[0130] The first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13 share the first guide portion 53, thereby reducing the manufacturing and maintenance costs of the positioning assembly 100 and improving the space utilization and compactness of the positioning assembly 100.

[0131] It needs to be specifically explained that, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second connecting plate 135 includes a vertical plate 133 and a second horizontal plate 134. The first connecting plate 132 spans the first positioning plate 12 in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the positioning platform 1, and both ends of the first connecting plate 132 extend beyond the first positioning plate 12. The end of the first connecting plate 132 near the first guide portion 53 is connected to the vertical plate 133, and one end of the second horizontal plate 134 is connected to the end of the vertical plate 133 away from the first connecting plate 132 to form a receiving groove 131. In addition, the other end of the second horizontal plate 134 extends towards the first guide portion 53, thereby realizing the connection between the second horizontal plate 134 and the first guide portion 53.

[0132] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first guide portion 53 includes a first guide rail 531, a first slider 532, and a second slider 533. The first guide rail 531 is disposed on the base 200, and both the first slider 532 and the second slider 533 are connected to the first guide rail 531. The first slider 532 is connected to the second horizontal plate 134, and the second slider 533 is connected to the end of the first positioning plate 12 near the first guide portion 53. A gap exists between the first slider 532 and the second slider 533 in the extending direction of the first guide rail 531, thereby preventing interference between the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13.

[0133] In practical use, guide members 5 are provided on both sides of the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13. One side of the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13 shares a first guide portion 53, while the other side does not share a guide member 5. In other words, the guide member 5 also includes a second guide portion 54 and a third guide portion 55. The second guide portion 54 engages with the side of the first positioning plate 12 away from the first guide portion 53, and the third guide portion 55 connects to the side of the second positioning plate 13 away from the first guide portion 53. Furthermore, the second guide portion 54 and the third guide portion 55 do not overlap in the horizontal plane where the base 200 is located. In other embodiments, both sides of the first positioning member 12 and the second positioning member 13 may share the guide member 5.

[0134] In this embodiment, the number of the first guide portion 53, the second guide portion 54, and the third guide portion 55 is one. In other embodiments, the number of the first guide portion 53, the second guide portion 54, and the third guide portion 55 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and is not limited here.

[0135] like Figure 1 As shown, a first clearance hole 121 is provided on the first positioning plate 12, which is used to accommodate and allow the second positioning plate 13 to pass. By adopting the above structure, interference between the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13 can be prevented, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the movement of the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13.

[0136] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first clearance hole 121 is formed on both sides of the first positioning plate 12. In other embodiments, the position of the first clearance hole 121 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and the specific setting position of the first clearance hole 121 is not limited here.

[0137] In addition, such as Figure 1 As shown, a second clearance hole 122 is provided on the first positioning plate 12, so that the moving part 2 can be connected to the second positioning plate 13 through the second clearance hole 122, which facilitates the connection between the moving part 2 and the second positioning plate 13 and prevents interference between the first positioning plate 12 and the second positioning plate 13.

[0138] like Figures 10 to 12 As shown, this embodiment also provides a battery swapping device 1000, which includes a positioning component 100. Specifically, by applying the positioning component 100 to the battery swapping device 1000, the positioning platform 1 or the moving part 2 extending into the receiving cavity 11 can float relative to the wall of the receiving cavity 11 in a first direction. This allows for fine-tuning between the moving part 2 and the positioning platform 1 in the first direction, thereby preventing force resistance between the moving part 2 and the positioning platform 1, which helps prevent deformation of the moving part 2 and the positioning platform 1, and improves the service life of the moving part 2 and the positioning platform 1.

[0139] In this embodiment, there are multiple positioning components 100. The multiple positioning components 100 can be implemented in the following ways: in the first embodiment, the multiple positioning components 100 are spaced apart along the length direction of the power swapping equipment 1000; in the second embodiment, the multiple positioning components 100 are spaced apart along the width direction of the power swapping equipment 1000; in the third embodiment, the multiple positioning components 100 are spaced apart along both the length and width directions of the power swapping equipment 1000.

[0140] In this embodiment, two positioning components 100 are used as an example for illustrative purposes. The two positioning components 100 are spaced apart along the width direction of the power swapping equipment 1000. With the above structure, once one positioning component 100 has moved into position, only the other positioning component 100 that has not yet moved into position needs to move. Specifically, there are two positioning platforms 1, which are spaced apart along the width direction of the power swapping equipment 1000. The moving parts 2 are connected to the positioning platforms 1 in a one-to-one correspondence. This prevents the problem of uneven force on the positioning platform 1 when the two moving parts 2 push both sides of the same positioning platform 1, such that after one side of the positioning platform 1 has moved into position, only the other side of the positioning platform 1 is pushed by the moving part 2.

[0141] While specific embodiments of this utility model have been described above, those skilled in the art should understand that these are merely illustrative examples, and the scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims. Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these embodiments without departing from the principles and essence of this utility model, but all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
