[0007] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model provides a mobile partition-type battery swapping heavy-duty truck energy storage thermal management unit, including a heavy-duty truck battery swapping station component. The inner end of the heavy-duty truck battery swapping station component is equipped with a liquid cooling heat dissipation component. The heavy-duty truck battery swapping station component includes a battery swapping station. Multiple battery charging storage frames are horizontally and equidistantly fixedly connected to the inner end of the battery swapping station. A liquid cooling chamber is fixedly connected to the lower end of the battery swapping station. The liquid cooling heat dissipation component includes an electrical truss fixedly connected to the upper side of the rear inner wall of the battery swapping station. A displacement crossbar is installed at the output end of the electrical truss. A temperature sensing camera is fixedly connected to the lower end of the displacement crossbar. Heat dissipation side chambers are symmetrically opened on the left and right sides of the battery charging storage frames. A hollow plate is connected to the right inner end of the heat dissipation side chamber. A circulating pipe storage bar is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the heat dissipation side chamber. Double-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect plugs are symmetrically fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the front end of the circulating pipe storage bar. Double-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect sockets are symmetrically fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the hollow plate near the circulating pipe storage bar.
[0008] In the aforementioned mobile partition-type battery swapping heavy-duty truck energy storage thermal management unit, this solution uses the heavy-duty truck battery swapping station components as the main framework. Through reasonable layout, it achieves efficient coordination of battery storage, transportation and liquid cooling circulation, ensuring a smooth battery swapping process.
[0009] As a further improvement of this application, the upper inner wall of the battery swapping station is fixedly connected to a robotic arm component extending outside the battery swapping station, and horizontally corresponding double-valve core self-sealing quick-connect sockets and double-valve core self-sealing quick-connect plugs are interlocked with each other. The inner end of the hollow plate is fixedly connected to a serpentine circulation pipe that communicates with the two double-valve core self-sealing quick-connect sockets, and the inner end of the liquid cooling chamber is fixedly connected to multiple sets of pumps that are respectively connected to the corresponding circulation pipe storage bars.
[0010] As a further improvement of this application, the inner end of the liquid cooling heat dissipation component is provided with a disassembly and maintenance component. The disassembly and maintenance component includes a U-shaped bottom groove that is fixedly connected to the lower inner wall of the heat dissipation side compartment. Multiple labor-saving rollers are horizontally and equidistantly arranged between the two inner walls of the U-shaped bottom groove, and the multiple labor-saving rollers and the corresponding hollow plates are in contact with each other.
[0011] As a further improvement to this application, the front end of the hollow board is fixedly connected with a pull-out square frame.

The closed-loop liquid cooling components accurately absorb battery heat and quickly return it, significantly improving heat dissipation efficiency and ensuring the battery operates at a suitable temperature, extending its service life. An electrical truss-driven temperature-sensing camera monitors the temperature in real time, providing timely alarms in case of anomalies. This allows for rapid location of liquid cooling system problems, reducing troubleshooting time. In the easy-to-disassemble and maintain components, the labor-saving rollers within the U-shaped bottom groove significantly reduce the resistance of the hollow plate's pull-out mechanism. Combined with the pull-out square frame, disassembly is more convenient, shortening maintenance cycles and reducing maintenance costs.

[0025] The two embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] First implementation method:
[0027] Figures 1-6 The diagram shows a mobile partition-type battery swapping heavy-duty truck energy storage thermal management unit, including a heavy-duty truck battery swapping station component 1. A liquid cooling heat dissipation component 2 is installed at the inner end of the heavy-duty truck battery swapping station component 1. An easy-to-disassemble and maintain component 3 is installed at the inner end of the liquid cooling heat dissipation component 2. A leakage monitoring component 4 is installed in the liquid cooling heat dissipation component 2. The heavy-duty truck battery swapping station component 1 includes a battery swapping station 100. A robotic arm component 101 extending out of the battery swapping station 100 is fixedly connected to the upper inner wall of the battery swapping station 100. The robotic arm component 101 on the upper inner wall of the battery swapping station 100 is equipped with multi-degree-of-freedom joints and high-precision positioning sensors, enabling it to accurately grasp batteries and transport them along a preset path. Multiple battery charging storage frames 103 are fixedly connected horizontally and equidistantly at the inner end of the battery swapping station 100. A liquid cooling chamber 102 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the battery swapping station 100.
[0028] The liquid cooling heat dissipation component 2 includes an electrical truss 208 fixedly connected to the upper side of the inner wall of the battery swapping station 100. A displacement crossbar 206 is installed at the output end of the electrical truss 208, and a temperature sensor 207 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the displacement crossbar 206. When the temperature sensor 207 detects an abnormally high temperature at a local location exceeding a preset threshold, the system immediately determines that there is a problem with the liquid cooling system, and then issues an alarm via an audible and visual alarm device, displaying the abnormal location on the control terminal for easy location by staff. The left and right sides of the battery charging storage box 103... A heat dissipation side compartment 200 is symmetrically provided on both sides. A hollow plate 201 is connected to the right inner end of the heat dissipation side compartment 200. A circulation pipe storage bar 202 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the heat dissipation side compartment 200. A double valve core self-sealing quick connector 203 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the front end of the circulation pipe storage bar 202. A double valve core self-sealing quick connector 204 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the end of the hollow plate 201 near the circulation pipe storage bar 202. The horizontally corresponding double valve core self-sealing quick connector 204 and double valve core self-sealing quick connector 203 are interlocked.
[0029] The inner end of the hollow plate 201 is fixedly connected to a serpentine circulation pipe 205 that communicates with two double-valve core self-sealing quick-connect sockets 204. The inner end of the liquid cooling chamber 102 is fixedly connected to multiple sets of pumps that communicate with the corresponding circulation pipe storage bars 202. The model can be ECW180A from the ECW series liquid cooling unit. The easy-to-disassemble and maintain component 3 includes a U-shaped bottom groove 300 fixedly connected to the lower inner wall of the heat dissipation side chamber 200. Multiple labor-saving rollers 301 are horizontally and equidistantly arranged between the two inner walls of the U-shaped bottom groove 300. The multiple labor-saving rollers 301 are in contact with the corresponding hollow plate 201. The front end of the hollow plate 201 is fixedly connected to a hand-pulled square frame 302.
[0030] Figures 1-6This solution uses a heavy-duty truck battery swapping station component 1 as its main framework. Inside the swapping station 100, horizontally equidistantly distributed battery charging storage boxes 103 store batteries awaiting swapping or charging. A robotic arm component 101 on the upper inner wall handles battery gripping and transfer. A liquid-cooled chamber 102 at the lower end provides cooling fluid circulation power for the entire system. A liquid-cooled heat dissipation component 2 performs core heat dissipation. An electrical truss 208 drives a displacement crossbar 206, which in turn moves a temperature-sensing camera 207 (optional model: FLIRA300) to monitor the temperature of each battery charging storage box 103 in real time. The heat dissipation side chambers 200 on both sides of the battery charging storage box 103 contain hollow plates 201. The serpentine circulation pipes 205 inside these chambers connect to the double-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect sockets 204 and the double-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect plugs 203 on the circulation pipe storage bar 202, forming a closed loop. The double-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect plugs 203 inside the liquid-cooled chamber 102 connect to the circulation... The ring pipe reservoir 202 is connected, delivering coolant to the serpentine circulation pipe 205. After absorbing battery heat through the hollow plate 201, the coolant flows back, completing the heat dissipation cycle. When an abnormally high temperature is detected in a local area, the system determines that there is a problem with the liquid cooling system and immediately issues an alarm. In the disassembly and maintenance component 3, the U-shaped bottom groove 300 on the lower inner wall of the heat dissipation side compartment 200 is equipped with a labor-saving roller 301 to reduce the frictional resistance when the hollow plate 201 is pulled out. The operator can easily remove it from the heat dissipation side compartment 200 by pulling the square frame 302. At this time, the double valve core self-sealing quick connector socket 204 on the hollow plate 201 separates from the double valve core self-sealing quick connector plug 203 on the circulation pipe reservoir 202. Since the double valve core self-sealing quick connector adopts a bidirectional spring-driven valve core design, the valve core will automatically close under the action of spring force at the moment the plug and socket are separated, achieving zero leakage and avoiding coolant leakage, thus enabling quick disassembly and maintenance.
[0031] Second implementation method:
[0032] Figure 3 , Figure 7The diagram shows a mobile, partitioned battery-swapping heavy-duty truck energy storage thermal management unit. The leakage monitoring component 4 includes a profile mating ring 400 fixedly connected to the outside of a dual-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect plug 203, and a narrow mating ring 401 fixedly connected to the outer end of a dual-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect socket 204. The horizontally corresponding profile mating ring 400 and narrow mating ring 401 are respectively fitted together outside the dual-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect plug 203 and dual-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect socket 204. A humidity sensor 403 (model HIH-4000) is fixedly connected to the lower inner wall of the profile mating ring 400. The narrow mating ring 401 is located away from the dual-valve-core self-sealing quick-connect plug 203. One end of the 03 is fixedly connected to a magnetic abutment ring 402. The end of the magnetic abutment ring 402 near the dual-valve core self-sealing quick connector 203 is fixedly connected to a sealing abutment ring 404. The leakage monitoring component 4 ensures system safety. The outer contoured mating ring 400 of the dual-valve core self-sealing quick connector 203 fits and mates with the narrow mating ring 401 at the outer end of the dual-valve core self-sealing quick connector 204. The magnetic abutment ring 402 enhances the fit and sealing through magnetic force, and the sealing abutment ring 404 further prevents leakage. The humidity sensor 403 inside the contoured mating ring 400 monitors the humidity at the mating point in real time. Once a coolant leak is detected, an alarm is triggered to ensure the safe operation of the system.
[0033] In light of current practical needs, the above-described embodiments adopted in this application are not limited to these. Any changes made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the concept of this application still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
