In some embodiments of the present invention, the front end of the leveling mechanism 315 extends forward beyond the front end of the pitch angle adjustment mechanism 316. Therefore, in the process of contacting and matching the power battery with the electric connector 321, the power battery is firstly contacted with the horizontal adjusting mechanism 315, and the horizontal adjusting mechanism 315 is used for adjusting the horizontal direction of the power battery so as to adjust the charging port of the power battery, so that the charging port of the power battery is opposite to the electric connector 321 in the horizontal direction.

It is understood that, in general, the charging port is configured to extend along the horizontal direction, so that the angle of the charging port to be adjusted in the horizontal direction may be larger than the pitch angle in the vertical direction, so that the charging port of the power battery is first adjusted to face the side of the electrical connector 321, so that the pitch angle of the charging port is then adjusted by the pitch angle adjusting mechanism 316 and matched with the electrical connector 321.
