Therefore, the charging for the three (totally six) batteries 10 remaining in the first unit magazine 32a and the second unit magazine 32b proceeds, and the battery 10 that needs to be “empty” until then is "small It becomes “. Similarly, the battery 10 that was "small” is “medium” and the battery 10 that is “medium” is “full”.

Also in this case, the lower stage rotary table 54a and the upper stage rotary table 54b rotate 90 ° in the clockwise direction (rightward direction) in the same manner as described above. Therefore, the lower stage side rotary table 54a and the upper stage side rotary table 54b are rotated by 180 ° from the initial position.

  • the lower stage side rotary table 54a and the upper stage side rotary table 54b rotate 90 ° in the clockwise direction (right direction). Therefore, the index rotation from the initial position of the lower stage rotary table 54a and the upper stage rotary table 54b is 0 °.
  • the above index rotation is repeated.
  • the lower stage rotary table 54a and the upper stage rotary table 54b are not rotated only in either the clockwise direction or the counterclockwise direction, but index in one direction up to a predetermined index angle After rotation, it is reversely rotated to a predetermined index angle in one remaining direction. Therefore, the power transmission cable 800 (see FIGS. 6, 7 and 19) is only twisted and untwisted within a predetermined rotation angle. That is, the twisting in the same direction is not continued, and thus damage to the power transmission cable 800 is effectively avoided.
  • the power transmission cable 800 is passed through the rectangular prism hollow portion 802 formed by combining the back plates 102 from a position higher than the upper end of the battery 10 placed on the charging stand 100, and the device side It is electrically connected to charging connector 112. Therefore, the length from the base point of the twist of the power transmission cable 800 to the device-side charge connector 112 can be increased. In this case, the degree of twisting of the power transmission cable 800 can be reduced as compared to the case where the length from the base point of the twist to the device-side charge connector 112 is short. This also effectively avoids damage to the power transmission cable 800.
  • the lower stage side rotary table 54a and the upper stage side rotary table 54b are index-rotated as described above, the user can easily take out the fully charged battery 10.
  • the receiver continues to receive the signal emitted by the transmitter.
  • the shutter main body 700 may be maintained in the open state after the first user inserts the battery 10 which needs to be charged. This allows the second user to replace the battery 10 that needs to be charged quickly with a fully charged battery 10.
  • the plurality of batteries 10 are stored while being charged to the magazine type lower side rotary table 54a and the upper stage side rotary table 54b (charging base 100). Therefore, it is possible to cope with a request for replacement of the battery 10 requiring charging by a plurality of users.
  • the number of unit magazines may be increased and stacked.
  • the magazine type charging device may be configured with only one unit magazine.
  • the lower stage side rotary table 54a may be rotated by a plurality of gears (gear groups).
  • a gear is provided on each of the rotation shaft of the motor and the lower rotation table 54a, and the gear mounted on the rotation shaft of the motor directly or indirectly by one or more other gears. It suffices to rotate and energize the gear provided in. The same applies to the upper stage rotary table 54b.

Abstract

Selon la présente invention, un port d'admission (20) est formé dans une batterie (10) par une partie de formation de port d'admission (12) faisant saillie à partir de la surface supérieure de la batterie (10). Un dispositif de charge de type magasin (30) comprend : des plateaux de charge (104) ; des plaques arrière (102), qui s'étendent le long de la batterie (10) et qui sont pourvues d'une saillie de détermination (108) ; et des connecteurs de charge côté dispositif (112). Lorsqu'une batterie (10) est placée sur un plateau de charge (104), le port d'admission (20) reçoit la saillie de détermination (108).
