Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery compartments in power stations, specifically to a rapid positioning and hoisting mechanism for battery compartments in intelligent battery swapping stations. Background Technology
[0002] A battery compartment in a power station is a specific space or facility used to store, manage, and maintain battery packs. When replacing batteries in a power station, a hoisting mechanism is required. The core requirement of a smart battery swapping station is to achieve fast, safe, and precise hoisting of the battery compartment in order to improve battery swapping efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and lower operating costs.
[0003] The existing battery compartments in the power station can only be replaced with the hoisting mechanism used, and cannot be quickly positioned and hoisted. Therefore, it is necessary to manually connect the hooks or docking parts on the hoisting device to the battery compartment before the replacement can be carried out. This not only delays the hoisting effect, but also makes positioning inconvenient.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a rapid positioning and hoisting mechanism for the battery compartment of an intelligent battery swapping station to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rapid positioning and hoisting mechanism for battery compartments in intelligent battery swapping stations. The mechanism involves moving a support frame above the battery compartment, then energizing the permanent magnets on both sides of the support frame. An electromagnet is also located above the battery compartment. When the support frame descends, the permanent magnets contact the electromagnets, resulting in magnetic attraction and rapid positioning. Next, the second drive motor switch is turned on, rotating the threaded rod. The rotation of the threaded rod causes the clamping plates on both sides to clamp and position the battery compartment. The support frame is then lifted, and the guide column above the support frame is inserted into the guide cylinder below the hoisting support plate to complete the positioning. This enhances stability during movement and addresses the problem in the background art where existing battery compartment hoisting mechanisms in power stations can only replace the battery compartment and cannot quickly position and hoist it. This necessitates manual connection of the hooks or couplings on the hoisting mechanism with the battery compartment before hoisting and replacement, which not only delays the hoisting process but also hinders positioning.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a rapid positioning and hoisting mechanism for the battery compartment of an intelligent battery swapping station, including a hoisting support plate for hoisting the battery compartment of the station;
[0007] Lifting support plates are installed on both sides of the gantry frame for moving and lifting. An electric slide rail assembly is fixedly installed inside the gantry frame, and the lifting support plates are fixedly connected to the electric slide rail assembly.
[0008] A lifting mechanism, installed above a hoisting support plate, is used for hoisting and lifting. The lifting mechanism includes steel wire ropes that pass through both sides of the inside of the hoisting support plate. Guide cylinders are fixedly connected to the lower two sides of the hoisting support plate. A support frame is fixedly connected to the lower end of the steel wire ropes. Guide columns are fixedly connected to the upper two sides of the support frame. A second drive motor is fixedly installed on the front outer side of the support frame. A threaded rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the second drive motor. The external threads of the threaded rod are tapped in opposite directions. Clamping plates are threadedly connected to the external sides of the threaded rod. Permanent magnets are fixedly installed on both lower two sides of the support frame.
[0009] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a first drive motor, which is fixedly mounted above the hoisting support plate. A first synchronous pulley is fixedly connected to the output end of the first drive motor. A synchronous belt is fitted around the outside of each of the first synchronous pulleys. A second synchronous pulley is fitted around the other side of the inside of the synchronous belt. A rotating rod is fixedly connected inside the second synchronous pulley. A winding reel is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the rotating rod. The wire rope is fitted around the outside of the winding reel.
[0010] Preferably, two sets of winding reels are respectively provided on each side above the hoisting support plate, and the winding reels are aligned with the direction of the wire rope.
[0011] Preferably, the guide cylinders on both sides below the hoisting support plate are movably connected to the guide columns on both sides above the support frame, and the guide columns and guide cylinders are used in conjunction.
[0012] Preferably, movable blocks are fixedly connected to the upper two sides of the clamping plate, and sliding rods are slidably connected inside the movable blocks. The sliding rods are located on both sides below the support frame, and anti-slip protrusions are fixedly connected to the surface of the clamping plate.
[0013] Preferably, the permanent magnets are located on both sides below the support frame, and electromagnets corresponding to the permanent magnets are provided on both sides above the battery compartment.
[0014] The technical effects and advantages provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows:
[0015] This invention, through the arrangement of a guide cylinder, support frame, guide column, second drive motor, threaded rod, clamping plate, and permanent magnet, not only enables rapid positioning but also enhances the stability of the hoisting process. The support frame is moved above the battery compartment, and then the permanent magnets on both sides below the support frame are energized. An electromagnet is also located above the battery compartment. When the support frame descends, the permanent magnets contact the electromagnets, resulting in magnetic attraction and rapid positioning. Next, the second drive motor is switched on, causing the threaded rod to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod then causes the clamping plates on both sides to clamp and position the battery compartment. Finally, the support frame is lifted, and the guide column above the support frame is inserted into the guide cylinder below the hoisting support plate to complete the positioning, thus enhancing stability during movement.

[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-5 The intelligent battery swapping station battery compartment rapid positioning and hoisting mechanism shown includes a hoisting support plate 1, which is used to hoist the station battery compartment.
[0026] The hoisting support plate 1 is set on both sides of the gantry frame 2 for moving and hoisting. The electric slide rail assembly 3 is fixedly installed inside the gantry frame 2, and the hoisting support plate 1 is fixedly connected to the electric slide rail assembly 3.
[0027] Lifting mechanism 4, installed above hoisting support plate 1, is used for hoisting and lifting. Lifting mechanism 4 includes wire ropes 407, which pass through both sides of the inside of hoisting support plate 1. Guide cylinders 5 are fixedly connected to the lower sides of hoisting support plate 1. Support frame 6 is fixedly connected to the lower end of wire ropes 407. Guide columns 7 are fixedly connected to the upper sides of support frame 6. A second drive motor 8 is fixedly installed on the front outer side of support frame 6. A threaded rod 9 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second drive motor 8. The external threads of the threaded rod 9 are reversed. Clamping plates 10 are threadedly connected to the external sides of the threaded rod 9. Clamping plates 10 are fixedly installed on both sides of the lower side of support frame 6. A permanent magnet 14 is provided. By moving the support frame 6 above the battery compartment, the permanent magnets 14 on both sides below the support frame 6 are energized. An electromagnet is also provided above the battery compartment. When the support frame 6 is lowered, the permanent magnets 14 will come into contact with the electromagnet and be magnetically attracted, thereby quickly positioning. Then, the switch of the second drive motor 8 is turned on, which drives the threaded rod 9 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 9 drives the clamping plates 10 on both sides to clamp and position the battery compartment. Then, the support frame 6 is lifted up, and the guide column 7 above the support frame 6 is inserted into the guide cylinder 5 below the hoisting support plate 1 to complete the positioning, thereby enhancing the stability during the movement.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the lifting mechanism 4 includes a first drive motor 401, which is fixedly mounted above the hoisting support plate 1. A first synchronous pulley 402 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first drive motor 401. A synchronous belt 403 is fitted around the outside of each of the first synchronous pulleys 402. A second synchronous pulley 404 is fitted inside the other side of the synchronous belt 403. A rotating rod 405 is fixedly connected inside the second synchronous pulley 404. A winding reel 406 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the rotating rod 405. A wire rope 407 is fitted around the outside of the winding reel 406. The lifting mechanism 4 can be opened... The first drive motor 401 is a self-locking motor that drives the first synchronous pulley 402 to rotate. The rotation of the first synchronous pulley 402 drives the two sets of external synchronous belts 403 to rotate. The rotation of the synchronous belts 403 drives the second synchronous pulley 404 on the other side to rotate. This causes the rotating rod 405 inside the second synchronous pulley 404 and the winding reels 406 at both ends to rotate simultaneously, thereby unwinding the wire rope 407 to raise and lower the support frame 6. The first synchronous pulley 402, the synchronous belts 403, and the second synchronous pulley 404 are equipped with matching teeth.
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, there are two sets of winding reels 406 on each side above the hoisting support plate 1. The winding reels 406 and the wire rope 407 are in the same direction. When the four sets of winding reels 406 rotate at the same time, they drive the wire rope 407 to wind or unwind in the same direction, thereby lifting and lowering the battery compartment.
[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the guide cylinders 5 on both sides below the hoisting support plate 1 are movably connected to the guide columns 7 on both sides above the support frame 6. The guide columns 7 and guide cylinders 5 work together. When the support frame 6 is lifted up, the guide columns 7 above the support frame 6 are inserted into the guide cylinders 5 below the hoisting support plate 1 to complete the positioning, thereby enhancing stability during movement.
[0031] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, movable blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the upper two sides of the clamping plate 10. Sliding rods 12 are slidably connected inside the movable blocks 11. The sliding rods 12 are located on both sides below the support frame 6. Anti-slip protrusions 13 are fixedly connected to the surface of the clamping plate 10. By turning on the switch of the second drive motor 8, the second drive motor 8 is a self-locking motor, which drives the threaded rod 9 to rotate. The external thread of the threaded rod 9 is tapped in the opposite direction, thereby driving the two sets of clamping plates 10 to move inward to clamp the battery compartment. During the clamping process, the sliding rods 12 on both sides of the upper side are used to enhance the stability of the movement of the clamping plate 10. At the same time, multiple sets of anti-slip protrusions 13 are provided inside the clamping plate 10 to enhance the stability of the clamping.
[0032] like Figure 4As shown, permanent magnets 14 are located on both sides below the support frame 6. Electromagnets corresponding to permanent magnets 14 are installed on both sides above the battery compartment. When the permanent magnets 14 on both sides below the support frame 6 are energized, and an electromagnet is also installed above the battery compartment, when the support frame 6 descends, the permanent magnets 14 will come into contact with the electromagnets and be magnetically attracted, thereby quickly positioning.
[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, connect the external power supply. Then, turn on the switch of the electric slide rail assembly 3 inside the gantry frame 2, which moves the hoisting support plate 1 above the power station battery compartment. Next, turn on the switch of the first drive motor 401, which drives the first synchronous pulley 402 to rotate. The rotation of the first synchronous pulley 402 drives the two sets of external synchronous belts 403 to rotate. The rotation of the synchronous belts 403 drives the second synchronous pulley 404 on the other side to rotate. This causes the rotating rod 405 inside the second synchronous pulley 404 and the winding reels 406 at both ends to rotate simultaneously, thereby unwinding the wire rope 407 in the winding reel 406 to raise and lower the support frame 6. At this time, the permanent magnets 14 on both sides below the support frame 6 are energized. An electromagnet is also provided above the battery compartment. When the support frame 6 descends, the permanent magnets 14 will contact the electromagnets and be magnetically attracted, thereby quickly positioning the frame. Then, the hoisting mechanism is activated. Turn on the second drive motor 8 to rotate the threaded rod 9. The rotation of the threaded rod 9 drives the clamping plates 10 on both sides to clamp and position the battery compartment. Then turn on the first drive motor 401 again. Through the transmission between the first synchronous pulley 402, the synchronous belt 403, and the second synchronous pulley 404, the winding reel 406 rotates counterclockwise, thereby driving the external steel wire rope 407 to wind up and lift the support frame 6. During the lifting process, the guide column 7 above the support frame 6 inserts into the guide cylinder 5 below the hoisting support plate 1 to complete the positioning, thereby enhancing the stability during the movement. Then, the electric slide rail assembly 3 inside the gantry 2 drives the hoisting support plate 1 to move back and forth out of the power station. After the above steps, the new battery compartment is replaced and placed into the power station. In this way, the use process of the intelligent battery swapping station battery compartment rapid positioning and hoisting mechanism is completed.
[0034] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
