Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heavy-duty truck battery technology, and in particular to a battery swapping box for heavy-duty trucks. Background Technology

[0002] As a key representative of the new energy vehicle sector, electric heavy-duty trucks operate by converting electrical energy into power to drive the vehicle. The battery pack, typically a lithium battery, is the energy storage device for electric heavy-duty trucks. Its primary function is to store electrical energy and supply it to the electric motor. The choice of battery pack voltage and capacity directly impacts the driving range and load-bearing capacity of the electric heavy-duty truck.

[0003] In the past, battery packs for electric heavy-duty trucks were often located between the cab and the cargo box, and the battery swapping mechanism was typically installed overhead. This resulted in a very high battery swapping station, which wasted a lot of cargo box space and made the construction of the station more complex and costly. For side-mounted battery swapping, the battery pack also needs to be redesigned. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention solves the problem of difficult battery pack replacement in existing heavy-duty trucks by proposing a battery swapping box for heavy-duty trucks with a simple structure that enables rapid replacement of heavy-duty truck battery packs.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the following technical solution is proposed: a battery swapping box for heavy trucks, comprising a box body for storing battery components, a box cover for sealing the box body at the upper end of the box body, positioning assembly plates for both the box body and the box cover, mounting holes for the positioning assembly plates, positioning mechanisms for both sides of the box body, an adsorption mechanism for the front of the box body, and an electrical connection assembly for the back of the box body.

[0006] Preferably, the positioning assembly plate includes a first concave plate, an inclined plate, and a second concave plate, wherein the first concave plate is connected to one end of the inclined plate, and the other end of the inclined plate is connected to the second concave plate.

[0007] Preferably, the positioning mechanism is a triangular block, the vertices of which are flattened to form a flat surface, and one side of the triangular block is parallel to the front of the box.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the box is provided with a plurality of first reinforcing plates, and each of the reinforcing plates is provided with through holes spaced apart.

[0009] Preferably, the adsorption mechanism is an electromagnet or a permanent magnet.

[0010] Preferably, the interior of the housing is provided with a second reinforcing plate, and the second reinforcing plate is provided with positioning holes for the battery assembly.

[0011] Preferably, the back of the housing is provided with fixing holes.

[0012] Preferably, a reinforcing strip is provided below the first concave plate of the housing, and the reinforcing strip is fixedly installed inside the housing.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: by setting a positioning assembly plate, the box body and box cover can be quickly positioned and installed, making the entire battery box installation fast, convenient and reliable; by setting a positioning mechanism and a suction mechanism, the battery box can be quickly installed on the heavy truck, realizing the rapid replacement of heavy truck batteries.

[0019] 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 explained and described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the implementation methods, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0020] Example 1:

[0021] A battery swapping box for heavy-duty trucks, such as Figure 1As shown, the device includes a housing 1 and a cover 2. Both the housing and the cover are equipped with positioning assembly plates 3, which have mounting holes. The housing and the cover are sealed together by bolts passing through the mounting holes. The inside of the housing is used to store battery components. Positioning mechanisms are provided on both sides of the housing, and the positioning mechanisms are symmetrically arranged to position the battery box on the heavy truck during the battery replacement process. A suction mechanism 7 is provided on the front of the housing. After the housing is positioned on the heavy truck, the suction mechanism assists in the installation, enabling quick replacement of the heavy truck battery. An electrical connection component 5 is provided on the back of the housing, which connects to the battery components inside the housing.

[0022] The positioning assembly plate includes a first concave plate, an inclined plate, and a second concave plate. One end of the first concave plate is connected to the inclined plate, and the other end of the inclined plate is connected to the second concave plate. The inclined plate increases the contact surface of the mounting area, making the seal between the box body and the box cover more secure and reliable. Simultaneously, the design of the inclined plate combined with the first and second concave plates allows the box cover to be quickly positioned on the box body, enabling rapid alignment of the mounting holes. Therefore, the inclined plate of this invention simultaneously serves the functions of positioning and increasing the contact surface.

[0023] like Figure 4 As shown, the positioning mechanism is a triangular block 4. The vertices of the triangular block are flattened to form a chamfered surface 11, and one side of the triangular block is parallel to the front of the box. Using a triangular block structure for positioning the entire box provides better stability. Furthermore, the triangular block is a multi-faceted solid structure, offering more positioning reference surfaces compared to conventional positioning plates, allowing for faster positioning during box installation. The chamfered surface at the vertices prevents structural damage and improves safety.

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the housing is provided with several first reinforcing plates 8, each with spaced-apart through holes. These through holes allow for heat dissipation of the battery components inside the housing. Additionally, in special circumstances, these through holes can engage with protruding structures on the heavy truck, securing the housing to the truck for further positioning and fixation.

[0025] The adsorption mechanism uses either an electromagnet or a permanent magnet. When using an electromagnet, the box is attracted during installation. When disassembling the box, the current flow is changed to repel the magnet on the truck, causing the box to separate from the truck and achieving rapid disassembly.

[0026] The back of the box has 6 fixing holes. By using the fixing holes and bolts, the entire box is firmly fixed to the heavy truck.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, a second reinforcing plate 9 is provided inside the box, and positioning holes for the battery assembly are provided on the second reinforcing plate. A reinforcing strip 10 is provided below the first recessed plate of the box, and the reinforcing strip is fixedly installed inside the box. The positioning holes protect the battery assembly inside the box and prevent the battery assembly from shifting during heavy truck transportation.

[0028] This utility model enables rapid positioning and installation of the battery box and its cover through a positioning assembly plate, making the entire battery box installation quick, convenient, and reliable. By setting up a positioning mechanism and a suction mechanism, the battery box can be quickly installed onto a heavy truck, enabling rapid replacement of the heavy truck battery.

[0029] The above description, in conjunction with specific embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present invention. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention.
