Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery production technology, and in particular to a structure for loading and unloading battery packs into and out of a prefabricated energy storage compartment. Background Technology

[0002] During the production of prefabricated battery storage compartments or storage cabinets, battery packs need to be packed into containers. Forklifts are often used for transportation and lifting into the containers. When packing, the two sides of the battery pack need to be aligned with the slots in the container before sliding it in. Due to uneven ground, the battery pack often tilts to one side. Moreover, because the battery packs are quite heavy, it is not convenient to push them into the container manually. Therefore, some handling equipment is needed for assembly. During the commissioning process in the factory, battery pack failures are often encountered, requiring repair or replacement. At this time, because there is no space between the battery packs to accommodate the insertion arm, it is impossible to remove the battery pack. Utility Model Content
