In this embodiment, the second adapting assembly 22 and the first adapting assembly 21 may have the same structure, and will not be described herein.
As shown in fig. 7, 8 and 11, in the present embodiment, the upper and lower sides of the second wheel assembly 12 are respectively rotatably connected to the level shifter 7, and the front and rear sides along the traveling direction a are slidably connected to the level shifter 7, specifically, by respectively arranging the second adapter assemblies 22 above and below the second mounting seat 123 to be rotatably connected to the connection seat 4, the two sliding assemblies 3 on the front and rear sides of the connection seat 4 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the second wheel axle 122. The arrangement is such that the middle area of the second mounting base 123 is reserved for mounting the second wheel axle 122, and the second adapter assembly 22 and the second wheel axle 122 do not interfere with each other, so that the interference of the rotational connection and the sliding connection is avoided, and meanwhile, the structural arrangement of the rotational connection and the sliding connection is facilitated.

In this embodiment, each second wheel assembly 12 is both rotatably and slidably coupled to the level shifter 7. The second wheel assembly 12 is rotationally connected with the level changing platform 7 on the basis of being slidingly connected with the level changing platform 7, so that when the second wheel assembly 12 is driven to slide relative to the level changing platform 7, the level changing platform 7 rotates around the first wheel assembly 11, and simultaneously rotates relative to the second wheel assembly 12, so that the rotation range of the level changing platform 7 is enlarged, the rotation stability of the level changing platform 7 is improved, the rotation resistance of the level changing platform 7 is reduced, and the adaptive capacity of the level changing equipment 1000 relative to the parking inclination of the electric vehicle is improved.
As shown in fig. 8, 9 and 10, in order to improve the stability of the relative sliding motion of the level shifter 7 and the second wheel assembly 12, each sliding contact assembly 3 includes one sliding rail 31 and two sliding blocks 32 cooperating with the sliding rail 31, and the two sliding blocks 32 are arranged at intervals along the sliding direction, so that the structural stress of the sliding contact assembly 3 is balanced by increasing the contact area with the sliding rail 31, and the sliding motion is smoother.

In the unlocked position, the second wheel assembly 12 can slide relative to the power changing platform 7, and in the locked position, the relative sliding of the second wheel assembly 12 and the power changing platform 7 is locked. When the level changing platform 7 and the second wheel assembly 12 do not need to slide relatively, for example, when the power changing device 1000 walks, the phenomenon that the whole power changing device 1000 shakes to influence the walking stability caused by the relative sliding of the second wheel assembly 12 and the level changing platform 7 is avoided, and the phenomenon that the power changing device 1000 rotates relative to the first wheel assembly 11 and the second wheel assembly 12 in the walking process is avoided. When the battery pack is required to be removed and installed by the battery changer 1000 traveling below the electric vehicle, the second wheel assembly 12 and the battery changer 7 are relatively moved by unlocking, so that the battery changer 1000 is rotated to be aligned with the electric vehicle, and the battery changer 7 can be removed and installed.

When the extension member is pressed against the slide rail 31 to press the slide rail 31 against the slider 32 to limit the relative sliding, preferably, the extension member is directed to a side surface of the slide rail 31, and the end shape of the extension member is matched with the side surface shape of the slide rail 31 to improve the friction force between the extension member and the slide rail 31, thereby improving the locking effect.
In another embodiment, the sliding rail 31 is provided with a locking hole, and the extension piece of the locking mechanism can extend out of and be inserted into the locking hole of the sliding rail 31 and be located at a preset position, so that the sliding rail 31 and the sliding block 32 cannot slide relatively, and further the relative sliding of the second wheel assembly 12 and the level shifter 7 is locked. The protruding piece is inserted into the locking hole of the sliding rail 31 to limit the relative sliding of the sliding rail 31 and the sliding block 32, so that the latch locking is formed, and the reliability of the latch locking sliding is better than that of the abutting locking.
Preferably, the two extending members are disposed on the upper and lower sides of the sliding rail 31, whether the extending members are abutted against the sliding rail 31 or the extending members are inserted into the sliding rail 31, the number of the extending members is at least two, and two extending members, one corresponding to the upper side of the sliding rail 31 and the other corresponding to the lower side of the sliding rail 31, enable the two extending members to clamp the sliding rail 31 from the upper and lower sides, and have good effect of limiting the sliding of the sliding rail 31 and the sliding block 32.
In other embodiments, the structure of the locking mechanism may be different from that of the present embodiment, for example, a coil and a magnetic structure may be used, and locking and unlocking are achieved by switching on and off the coil. Other locking mechanisms with unlocking and locking functions in the prior art can be adopted, and the appearance, the size and the like of the locking mechanism can be adaptively adjusted according to the structural arrangement of the battery exchange equipment 1000 when the locking mechanism is applied to the battery exchange equipment 1000.
