Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery swapping station technology, specifically to a battery swapping station tray that can be quickly positioned and docked. Background Technology

[0002] Electric vehicle battery swapping stations are locations that provide battery replacement services for electric vehicles. They store a large number of fully charged batteries through centralized charging. When a user's electric vehicle runs out of power, they can go to the swapping station and use the swapping equipment to quickly remove the dead battery and replace it with a fully charged one. The whole process usually only takes a few tens of seconds to a few minutes.

[0003] However, in practice, some minor issues at battery swapping stations still affect the user experience. When users remove a fully charged new battery and place the old one into the charging compartment, insufficient lighting makes it difficult to clearly identify the battery's charging port and the docking ports within the compartment. In this situation, obstructed visibility can easily lead to misalignment of the ports, resulting in the battery appearing to be properly placed but not actually connected, leaving the old battery uncharged for an extended period. This not only affects the battery's recycling efficiency but may also result in an insufficient number of fully charged batteries available for subsequent users. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned problems, this utility model proposes a battery tray that can quickly and accurately connect to the battery charging port, making battery swapping at the station more convenient.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution proposed by this utility model is: a battery tray for a battery swapping station that can be quickly positioned and docked, comprising:

[0014] Furthermore, two docking seats are symmetrically provided, and the buffer telescopic rod is located between the two docking seats.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages: During nighttime operation, the ring-shaped light strip clearly illuminates the charging compartment, solving the problem of insufficient light and providing a good field of vision for docking operations. The tray sliding structure is precisely designed; during pushing and pulling, the guide rod and guide groove work together, and the slider and slide groove work together to achieve precise guidance, preventing deviation and allowing the battery to easily align with the charging position. At the moment of docking, the magnetic structure assists in positioning and enhances docking stability, while the central buffer device effectively mitigates impact, protecting components while ensuring proper docking. It also facilitates the tray's ejection after the electromagnet is de-energized, making it convenient to pick up and put down the battery. The overall structure balances operational convenience and docking accuracy, significantly improving the battery replacement efficiency of the battery swapping station. Attached Figure Description
