Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a fire-fighting device that uses forks instead of winches in a battery swapping station, and belongs to the field of fire-fighting equipment technology. Background Technology

[0002] A battery is a cup, tank, or other container or composite container containing an electrolyte solution and metal electrodes to generate an electric current. It is a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy and has positive and negative electrodes. With the advancement of technology, the term "battery" now generally refers to any small device that can generate electrical energy, such as a solar cell. The main performance parameters of a battery are electromotive force, capacity, specific energy, and resistance. Using a battery as an energy source can provide a stable voltage, stable current, long-term stable power supply, and a current that is minimally affected by external factors. Furthermore, batteries have a simple structure, are easy to carry, and are simple to charge and discharge. They are unaffected by external climate and temperature, and their performance is stable and reliable. They play a significant role in all aspects of modern life.

[0003] When batteries are stored in battery racks, fire-fighting devices are used to prevent the batteries from catching fire and causing danger. Traditional battery rack fire-fighting devices usually use a winch to lift and lower the batteries. The fire-fighting method is to place the faulty and burning battery on the lifting rack by a stacker crane, and then the winch lowers the lifting rack into the water tank. This structure is costly, and the winding wheel may cause the two sides to lift asynchronously.

[0004] Therefore, a fire-fighting device that uses forks instead of winches in a battery swapping station is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a fire-fighting device that replaces the winch with a forklift in a battery swapping station, so as to solve or alleviate the technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: a forklift-based fire-fighting device for battery swapping stations includes a battery placement rack, a battery stacker, a fire water tank, a battery lifting rack, smoke detectors, and lifting rack presence detection probes. The battery stacker is located in front of the battery placement rack, the fire water tank is fixedly installed on the inner side of the surface of the battery placement rack, the battery lifting rack is located on the inner side of the battery placement rack, two smoke detectors are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the bottom of the battery lifting rack, and two lifting rack presence detection probes are fixedly installed on the surface of the battery placement rack, with the two lifting rack presence detection probes located on the left and right sides of the battery lifting rack.

[0007] More preferably, the fire water tank and the battery lifting frame are both in the same vertical direction, and the size of the battery lifting frame is smaller than the size of the inner cavity of the fire water tank.

[0008] More preferably, a stacker guide rail is fixedly installed on the front side of the battery placement rack, and the bottom of the battery stacker is slidably connected to the surface of the stacker guide rail.

[0009] More preferably, each of the battery placement racks is provided with a support foot at its bottom, and the support foot is connected to the bottom of the battery placement rack by bolts.

[0010] The present invention has the following advantages due to the adoption of the above technical solution:

[0011] I. This utility model, by setting up a battery placement rack, a battery stacker, a fire water tank, a battery lifting rack, a smoke detector, and a lifting rack in-situ detection probe, provides a fire-fighting method. The method involves placing a faulty, burning battery on the battery lifting rack via the battery stacker, then placing the lifting rack and the burning battery together into the water tank. Simultaneously, the smoke detector detects smoke from the battery, allowing for a re-inspection of any battery fire. The lifting rack in-situ detection probe monitors the stability of the lifting rack during lifting, preventing tilting. This fire-fighting function utilizes existing components, simplifying the structure, reducing costs, minimizing the need for a control system, reducing subsequent maintenance and operating costs, and adding a battery fire re-inspection function to avoid false detections.

[0012] Second, by setting up a stacker crane guide rail, this utility model can guide and limit the movement of the battery stacker crane, preventing it from deviating in direction during movement. By setting up support feet, it can provide overall support for the equipment, ensuring the stability of the equipment when it is placed.

[0021] In the following description, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of this invention. Therefore, the drawings and description are considered exemplary in nature and not restrictive.

[0022] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a forklift-based fire-fighting device for battery swapping stations, including a battery placement rack 1, a battery stacker 2, a fire water tank 3, a battery lifting rack 4, smoke detectors 5, and lifting rack presence detection probes 6. The battery stacker 2 is located in front of the battery placement rack 1. The fire water tank 3 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the surface of the battery placement rack 1. The battery lifting rack 4 is located on the inner side of the battery placement rack 1. Two smoke detectors 5 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the bottom of the battery lifting rack 4. Two lifting rack presence detection probes 6 are fixedly installed on the surface of the battery placement rack 1. The two lifting rack presence detection probes 6 are located on the left and right sides of the battery lifting rack 4. The fire water tank 3 and the battery lifting rack 4 are in the same vertical direction. The size of the battery lifting rack 4 is smaller than the size of the inner cavity of the fire water tank 3.

[0025] By setting up a battery placement rack 1, a battery stacker 2, a fire water tank 3, a battery lifting rack 4, a smoke detector 5, and a lifting rack in-situ detection probe 6, this fire-fighting method involves placing the faulty, burning battery on the battery lifting rack 4 via the battery stacker 2, and then placing the battery lifting rack 4 and the faulty, burning battery together into the water tank. Simultaneously, the smoke detector 5 can detect smoke from the battery, thus re-checking for battery fires. The lifting rack in-situ detection probe 6 can detect the stability of the battery lifting rack 4 during lifting, preventing tilting during the process. This fire-fighting function utilizes existing components, simplifying the structure, reducing costs, reducing the need for a control system, reducing subsequent maintenance and operating costs, and adding a battery fire re-checking function to avoid false detections.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, a stacker guide rail 7 is fixedly installed on the front side of the battery placement rack 1, the bottom of the battery stacker 2 is slidably connected to the surface of the stacker guide rail 7, and the bottom of the battery placement rack 1 is provided with support feet 8, which are connected to the bottom of the battery placement rack 1 by bolts and threads.

[0028] By setting the stacker crane guide rail 7, the battery stacker crane 2 can be guided and limited when it moves, so as to avoid deviation in direction when it moves. By setting the support feet 8, the equipment can be supported as a whole, ensuring the stability of the equipment when it is placed.

[0029] In operation, when a battery catches fire, the battery stacker 2 lifts and supports it, placing the burning battery on its surface. The battery stacker 2 then moves to the right, moving the burning battery synchronously until it is positioned in front of the battery lifting frame 4. The battery stacker 2 then moves the burning battery to the inside of the battery lifting frame 4 and places it there. At this point, the smoke detector 5 re-inspects the burning battery to confirm its continued combustion. Subsequently, the battery lifting frame 4 moves the burning battery downwards. The lifting frame in-position detection probe 6 detects the stability of the battery lifting frame 4 as it moves downwards, allowing the battery lifting frame 4 to carry the burning battery into the inner cavity of the fire water tank 3. The fire is then extinguished using water from the fire water tank 3.

[0030] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various variations or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these should all be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
