Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery swapping technology for new energy vehicles, and in particular to a containerized honeycomb energy storage cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] Battery swapping for new energy vehicles is a necessary situation that new energy vehicles need to face after long-term use. When the battery capacity of a new energy vehicle decreases to less than 70% of its initial capacity, and it is not due to human-caused quality problems, the new energy vehicle can go to a battery swapping station for battery maintenance or replacement, thereby maintaining the lifespan of the new energy vehicle and increasing its value, allowing the vehicle's range to be restored to near the level of a new car.
[0003] With the surge in the number of new energy vehicles, the number of vehicles choosing battery swapping services is also increasing, which brings new challenges to the operation of battery swapping stations. In the future, we may see queues at some battery swapping stations. The core reason for this is the instantaneous imbalance between supply and demand: on the one hand, during peak periods (such as holiday travel or daily commuting), the demand for battery swapping surges while the number of battery swapping stations is insufficient to meet the demand; on the other hand, the charging speed of batteries limits the efficiency of recycling. When the fully charged batteries stored in the station are depleted, subsequent vehicles have to wait for charging to complete. If this situation is not alleviated, it may weaken the core advantage of the "fast" battery swapping mode. Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application proposes a containerized honeycomb energy storage cabinet. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following means: a containerized honeycomb energy storage cabinet includes a cabinet body and a carrier box for storing and transporting the cabinet body. The cabinet body is fixedly installed in the middle of the carrier box. The top surface of the carrier box is connected to the long side walls on both sides of the carrier box to form an L-shaped side wall structure. The L-shaped side wall structure is hinged to the middle of the top surface of the carrier box in a flip-out manner.

Detailed Implementation
[0013] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0014] For this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-5 The specific implementation of the containerized honeycomb energy storage cabinet includes a cabinet body 1 and a carrier box 2 for storing and transporting the cabinet body 1. The cabinet body 1 is fixedly installed in the middle of the carrier box 2. The top surface of the carrier box 2 is connected to the long side walls on both sides of the carrier box 2 to form an L-shaped side wall structure 3. The L-shaped side wall structure 3 is hinged to the middle of the top surface of the carrier box 2. Storage slots 4 for storing batteries are staggered on the long side wall of the cabinet body 1. A hydraulic cylinder 6 is provided in the middle of the top surface of the carrier box 2 near the L-shaped side wall structure 3. The telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder 6 is oscillatingly connected to the top surface of the L-shaped side wall structure 3. The end of the hydraulic cylinder 6 away from the telescopic rod is oscillatingly connected to the top surface of the carrier box 2.
[0015] A locking block 5 is rotatably provided on the long side wall of the cabinet 1 near the storage slot 4. One end of the locking block 5 extends toward the storage slot 4. The locking block 5 is detachably connected to the long side wall of the cabinet 1 by a locking bolt 23. The cabinet 1 has a threaded hole 7 that matches the locking bolt 23 near the locking bolt 23. The locking block 5 has a light hole 8 that matches the screw of the locking bolt 23 near the middle of the locking bolt 23. The locking block has a relief groove 9 that matches the nut of the locking bolt 23 on the side wall away from the cabinet 1. The relief groove 9 is connected to the light hole 8.
[0016] Specifically, the battery is placed into the storage slot 4, the locking bolt 23 is loosened, and the locking block 5 is rotated toward the storage slot 4 at the end near the storage slot 4. Then the locking bolt 23 is tightened. At this time, the locking block 5 is inside the storage slot 4 at the end near the storage slot 4, which has a blocking effect on the battery placed in the storage slot 4, preventing the battery from falling out during transportation.
[0017] The short side walls on both sides of the carrier box 2 are provided with openings 10 in the middle. The openings 10 are covered with double doors 11, which are hinged and can swing on the edge of the openings 10 near the L-shaped side wall structure 3. Several locking hooks 12 are distributed at the top and bottom of the opening 10 near the double-leaf door 11. A locking rod 13 is rotatably provided on the double-leaf door 11 at the position opposite to the lock. A support seat 14 that cooperates with the locking rod 13 is provided at the top and bottom of the double-leaf door 11 near the locking rod 13. The top and bottom of the locking rod 13 are provided with connectors 15 that match the locking hook 12 near the locking hook 12. The middle of the double-leaf door 11 is provided with a rotating handle 16, and the double-leaf door 11 is provided with a locking buckle 17 near the rotating handle 16.
[0018] Specifically, when closing the door, the double-leaf door 11 is closed. The operator can rotate the handle 16 to rotate the locking rod 13, which in turn causes the connectors 15 at the top and bottom of the locking rod 13 to engage with the locking hook 12, thereby locking the door and completing the operation of closing the double-leaf door.
[0019] The lower end of the short side wall of the cabinet 1 is provided with a wire interface 18. The bottom of the double-leaf door 11 is provided with a thickened plate 19 near the wire interface 18. A through-hole 20 is provided on the side of the thickened plate 19 away from the wire interface 18. The through-hole 20 is connected to the middle of the carrying box 2. A recessed groove 21 is provided on the side of the thickened plate 19 near the wire interface 18. The recessed groove 21 is connected to the through-hole 20. A protective plate 22 is covered inside the recessed groove 21. The upper end of the protective plate 22 is hinged to the groove wall of the recessed groove 21. Specifically, by installing a CAN signal communication module inside the cabinet 1 to detect battery information such as battery voltage, current, and battery temperature, and then connecting it to the wire interface 18, the battery information inside the cabinet 1 is collected and transmitted back to the operation platform. It should be noted that the CAN signal communication module used for testing employs a common technology available on the market. It will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art should be able to make reasonable selections and designs based on the actual situation. It is sufficient to ensure that battery status detection can be achieved when the battery is inserted into the storage slot 4.
[0020] The workflow of this application is as follows: After the carrier box 2 and the cabinet 1 are installed together on the truck, the battery is inserted into the storage slot 4 of the cabinet 1. When the car user sends a signal via mobile phone or vehicle, after the operating platform receives the charging information and location information of the vehicle to be charged, the operating platform dispatches a delivery truck to the vehicle signal location or user location to perform battery swapping operation on the vehicle.
