本申请要求2024年03月15日提交的、发明名称为“底盘总成、可换电车辆、换电机器人及充换电站”的中国专利申请CN202420511024.2的优先权,上述中国专利申请的全部内容通过引用并入本申请中。
本发明涉及新能源汽车技术领域,具体涉及一种底盘总成、可换电车辆、换电机器人及充换电站。
对于新能源汽车,特别是纯电动汽车来说,换电是一种能够在短时间内快速补能的方式,因此该方式备受光大车主青睐。换电过程一般在充换电站内进行,充换电站内设置有换电平台、电池仓和换电机器人,通过换电机器人在电池仓与换电平台之间的往复移动,实现将亏电电池从待换电车辆上拆下以及将满电动力电池安装到待换电车辆的操作。
换电过程中,如何将电池精准地安装在车辆底盘上,是决定换电成功率的关键因素之一。通常,待换电车辆的地盘与电池之间没有相对定位关系,因此需要借助换电机器人来定位。目前的换电机器人上设置有两组定位部件,一组用来与车辆底盘定位,一组用来与电池定位,从而通过换电机器人来间接实现电池与车辆底盘之间的定位。但是,按照目前的制造和装配水平,对于上述任一对定位关系来说,单独控制车辆底盘与换电机器人或者单独控制电池与换电机器人之间的定位误差相对来说较为容易,而同时控制两组定位关系之间的误差则较为困难,容易出现由于相对误差较大而导致定位失败的问题,造成换电成功率的降低。
相应地,本领域需要一种新的技术方案来解决上述问题。
为了解决现有技术中的上述至少一个问题,即为了解决换电过程中电池与待换电车辆定位成功率低的问题,本申请提供了一种底盘总成,包括底盘本体和电池包,所述底盘本体上设置有电池安装位,所述电池包可拆卸地安装于所述安装位,所述底盘本体上还开设有多个车身定位孔,所述电池包上开设有多个电池定位孔,在所述电池包安装于所述安装位上时,对于每一个所述电池定位孔均存在一个与其轴向相对应的所述车身定位孔。

在上述底盘总成的优选技术方案中,所述安装位为安装槽,所述车身定位孔设置于所述安装槽外侧。
本申请还提供了一种可换电车辆,所述可换电车辆包括上述技术方案中任一项所述的底盘总成。
本申请的可换电车辆,通过设置上述底盘总成,使得电池包安装好后电池定位孔与车身定位孔相对应,从而电池包与车辆底盘可以采用同一定位基准进行定位,避免由于两组定位关系之间的误差较大而导致的定位失败的问题,提升换电成功率。
本申请还提供了一种换电机器人,用于为上述技术方案所述的可换电车辆换电,所述换电机器人包括机器人本体和设置于所述机器人本体上的定位销,所述定位销被设置成能够同时插入所述电池定位孔和所述车身定位孔。
本申请的换电机器人,通过设置定位销同时插入电池定位孔和车身定位孔,可以利用同一定位销实现电池包与车辆底盘之间的定位,有利于提升定位精度和换电成功率。

在上述换电机器人的优选技术方案中,所述定位销可升降设置。
本申请还提供了一种充换电站,所述充换电站包括上述技术方案中任一项所述的换电机器人。
本申请的充换电站,通过设置上述换电机器人,可以利用同一定位销实现电池包与车辆底盘之间的定位,有利于提升定位精度和换电成功率。

首先参照图1和图2,对本申请的底盘总成进行简要介绍。
如图1和图2所示,为了解决换电过程中电池与待换电车辆定位成功率低的问题,本申请的底盘总成10包括底盘本体11和电池包12。底盘本体11上设置有电池安装位111,电池包12可拆卸地安装于安装位111,底盘本体11上还开设有多个车身定位孔112,电池包12上开设有多个电池定位孔121,在电池包12安装于安装位111上时,对于每一个电池定位孔121均存在一个与其轴向相对应的车身定位孔112。
本申请的底盘总成10在换电过程中,换电机器人20上的定位件(以定位销为例)上升并依次穿过电池定位孔121和车身定位孔112,完成换电机器人20与底盘本体11上的亏电电池包的定位,然后换电机器人20上的加解锁装置对电池包12进行解锁,亏电电池包由此被拆卸下来。然后换电机器人20将亏电电池包转运至电池架,并从电池架上接收满电电池包,然后通过定位件与电池包上的电池定位孔121定位。接下来换电机器人20承载满电电池包移动至底盘总成10下方,将满电电池包举升,举升过程中,与电池定位孔121处于定位状态的定位件伸入车身定位孔112实现与车身的定位,然后持续举升直至将满电电池包举升至安装位111。最后换电机器人20上的加解锁机构对满电电池包进行加锁操作,如此换电完成。
可以看出,本申请的上述技术方案,通过电池包12安装好后电池定位孔121与车身定位孔112相对应的设置方式,使得电池包12与车辆底盘可以采用同一定位基准进行定位,避免由于两组定位关系之间的误差较大而导致的定位失败的问题,提升换电成功率。
下面结合图1至图3,对本申请的底盘总成的一种优选实施方式进行介绍。
如图1至3所示,一种优选技术方案中,底盘总成10包括底盘本体11和电池包12。底盘本体11的下侧(装配好后靠近地面的一侧,下同)设置有安装位111,该安装位111优选地为由下侧向内凹陷形成的安装槽,电池包12安装于该安装槽后,基本实现与底盘下侧齐平。电池包12包括外壳和设置于外壳内的电芯,外壳形成有容纳腔,电芯安装在容纳腔内,外壳的四周形成有连接边框,连接边框的高度小于容纳腔部分的高度。安装槽的深度与电池相适配,其深度较深,用于容纳外壳的容纳腔。安装槽的外侧设置有网格支撑筋,网格支撑筋的高度高于安装槽但低于底盘本体11的下侧,用于容纳连接边框。外壳的连接边框上设置有两个电池定位孔121,两个池定位孔沿外壳的对角方向设置,如图1所示,两个电池定位孔121分别设置在连接边框的左上角和右下角。优选地,电池定位孔121为圆形通孔。与此对应地,安装槽四周的网格支撑筋上设置有两个车身定位孔112,车身定位孔112优选地也为圆形通孔。其中,每个电池定位孔121的孔径均大于与其对应的车身定位孔112的孔径。如此,在电池包12安装到安装位111时,电池包12上的两个电池定位孔121在轴向上分别与安装位111上的两个车身定位孔112一一对应。
需要说明的是,在理论情况下,当电池包12安装在安装位111上后,每个电池定位孔121与对应的车身定位孔112之间轴线应当重合。但受限于目前的制造精度等原因,实际中很难达到轴线重合的情况,因此电池定位孔121的轴线与车身定位孔112的轴线之间具有一定微小偏差,但该微小偏差并不影响二者之间的定位。由此,本申请中的电池定位孔121与车身定位孔112轴向相对应指的是电池定位孔121与车身定位孔112的轴线重合或存在微小偏差,该偏差例如可以为0-5mm(仅作示例)。
上述设置方式,采用多个定位孔进行定位,有利于提高定位精度。电池定位孔121的孔径大于车身定位孔112的孔径的设置方式,有利于降低定位难度,提升换电成功率。
需要说明的是,上述优选的实施方式仅仅用于阐述本申请的原理,并非旨在于限制本申请的保护范围。在不偏离本申请原理的前提下,本领域技术人员可以对上述设置方式进行调整,以便本申请能够适用于更加具体的应用场景。
例如,在一种可替换的实施方式中,虽然上述实施方式是结合底盘本体11上设置两个车身定位孔112,电池包12上设置两个电池定位孔121为例进行说明的,但是车身定位孔112和电池定位孔121的数量并非是限制性地,本领域技术人员可以基于实际应用场景进行调整。例如电池定位孔121的数量还可以为一个、三个或更多;电池定位孔121的数量还可以大于车身定位孔112的数量,以便电池包12可以安装于不同规格的底盘;车身定位孔112的数量也可以大于电池定位孔121的数量,以便底盘本体11可以安装不同规格的电池包12。
再如,在另一种可替换的实施方式中,电池定位孔121的孔径大于车身定位孔112的孔径仅仅为一种优选地实施方式,本领域技术人员可以对其调整。例如,还可以将电池定位孔121的孔径设置为与车身定位孔112的孔径相等,当然这种设置方式将不利于提高定位成功率。
再如,在另一种可替换的实施方式中,电池定位孔121的设置位置并非一成不变,除了沿电池包12的对角方向设置外,还可以调整为其他设置方式,如设置于连接边框的同一侧,或者分别设置于连接边框的彼此相对的两侧的中部等。
再如,在另一种可替换的实施方式中,电池定位孔121的设置位置也并非唯一,本领域技术人员可以对其调整。例如可以将安装槽的范围扩大,并将车身定位孔112设置在安装槽内侧等。
再如,在另一种可替换的实施方式中,安装位111除采用安装槽外,本领域技术人员还可以进行调整,如采用安装平面作为安装位111,此时在电池包12安装好的情况下,电池包12的下侧面将突出底盘本体11的下侧。
当然,上述可以替换的实施方式之间、以及可以替换的实施方式和优选的实施方式之间还可以交叉配合使用,从而组合出新的实施方式以适用于更加具体的应用场景。
本申请还提供了一种可换电车辆,可换电车辆包括上述实施方式中的底盘总成10。
本申请的可换电车辆,通过设置上述底盘总成10,使得电池包12安装好后电池定位孔121与车身定位孔112相对应,从而电池包12与车辆底盘可以采用同一定位基准进行定位,避免由于两组定位关系之间的误差较大而导致的定位失败的问题,提升换电成功率。
下面参照图4和图5,对本申请的换电机器人进行介绍。
如图4和图5所示,本申请还提供了一种换电机器人20,用于为上述技术方案的可换电车辆换电。换电机器人20包括机器人本体21和设置于机器人本体21上的定位销22,定位销22被设置成能够同时插入电池定位孔121和车身定位孔112。
一种可能的实施方式中,机器人本体21包括底座、举升装置和电池承载装置,举升装置固定连接在底座上,电池承载装置连接在举升装置上,举升装置例如可以为剪叉式升降装置,该举升装置可以带动电池承载装置升降移动。电池承载装置上设置有加解锁结构和定位销22,电池承载装置用于对电池包12进行加解锁操作,定位销22用于电池包12与底盘本体11之间的定位。本申请中定位销22设置有两个,两个定位销22沿电池承载装置的对角方向设置。优选地,定位销22可升降设置,定位销22的具体升降方式为本领域的常规技术手段,本申请不再赘述。
参见图5,定位销22由上至下包括第一销段221和第二销段222,第一销段221和第二销段222均为柱状,第一销段221的外径小于第二销段222的外径,且第一销段221的顶部具有倒角。
如此,在换电过程中,换电机器人20利用电池承载部承载电池包12,并通过定位销22的升降同时实现与电池定位孔121和车身定位孔112的定位。
本申请的换电机器人20,通过设置定位销22同时插入电池定位孔121和车身定位孔112,可以利用同一定位销22实现电池包12与车辆底盘之间的定位,有利于提升定位精度和换电成功率。通过定位销22设置第一销段221和第二销段222,且第一销段221的外径小于第二销段222的外径,可以有效避免定位销22退出电池定位孔121和车身定位孔112时由于伸入距离过长而导致的卡滞,提升换电成功率。
当然,上述换电机器人20的具体设置方式仅仅为示例性地,本领域技术人员可以对其调整,只要该调整未偏离本申请的原理即可。举例而言,机器人本体21的具体形式并非是限制性地,本领域技术人员可以对其调整,只要该机器人本体21能够安装定位销22并对电池包12进行加解锁即可。再如,定位销22的设置数量并非一成不变,本领域技术人员可以对其调整,例如定位销22的数量还可以为一个、三个或更多,以便换电机器人20可以适用于多种规格的电池包12与底盘的定位。再如,虽然上述实施方式是结合定位销22可升降为例进行介绍的,但是这并非是限制性地,定位销22也可以固定设置在机器人本体21上。再如,定位销22的具体结构并非唯一,除上述介绍的包括第一销段221和第二销段222外,本领域技术人员可以基于具体应用场景进行调整。例如,定位销22整体采用同一外径;再如,定位销22由上至下呈锥形;再如,定位销22包括三段或更多段等。
本申请还提供了一种充换电站,充换电站包括上述实施方式的换电机器人20。
本申请的充换电站,通过设置上述换电机器人20,可以利用同一定位销22实现电池包12与车辆底盘之间的定位,有利于提升定位精度和换电成功率。
下面对本申请的充换电站的一种可能的换电过程进行介绍。
一种可能的实施过程中,待换电车辆驶入充换电站并停放于换电位置,换电机器人20移动至待换电车辆下方,举升装置动作带动电池承载装置上升至待换电车辆的底盘处,此时定位销22上升并伸入至亏电电池包的电池定位孔121中,换电机器人20与亏电电池包定位完成。然后,加解锁装置动作对亏电电池包进行解锁,亏电电池包脱离安装位111并承载于电池承载装置。接下来,举升装置动作带动电池承载装置和亏电电池包一同下降,下降至初始位置后,换电机器人20承载亏电电池包移动至电池仓,并将亏电电池包转运至电池仓,并从电池仓接收满电电池包,接收过程中通过定位销22与满电电池包进行定位。然后换电机器人20承载满电电池包再次移动至待换电车辆下方,举升装置动作带动电池承载装置上升至待换电车辆的底盘处,与满电电池包处于定位状态的定位销22伸入车身定位孔112中,实现满电电池包与底盘本体11之间的定位。最后,加解锁装置动作对满电电池包进行加锁操作,加锁结束后举升装置动作带动电池承载装置下降,定位销22依次退出车身定位孔112和电池定位孔121,电池包更换完成。
本领域的技术人员能够理解,尽管在此所述的一些实施例包括其它实施例中所包括的某些特征而不是其它特征,但是不同实施例的特征的组合意味着处于本申请的范围之内并且形成不同的实施例。例如,在本申请的权利要求书中,所要求保护的实施例的任意之一都可以以任意的组合方式来使用。
至此,已经结合附图所示的优选实施方式描述了本申请的技术方案,但是,本领域技术人员容易理解的是,本申请的保护范围显然不局限于这些具体实施方式。在不偏离本申请的原理的前提下,本领域技术人员可以对相关技术特征作出等同的更改或替换,这些更改或替换之后的技术方案都将落入本申请的保护范围之内。
