In the present embodiment, the rotation member 123 is connected through the fixing portion 1231 and the rotation portion 1232 respectively mounted on the sliding frame 1221 and the traveling body 200, and the rotation of the traveling member mounting mechanism 12 with respect to the traveling body 200 is also achieved while the connection of the traveling member mounting mechanism 12 with the traveling body 200 is achieved.
The traveling assembly mounting mechanism 12 further includes a first stopper assembly (not shown) provided on the sliding assembly 122 and having a locked state and an unlocked state, the first stopper assembly being capable of restricting the sliding assembly 122 from moving relatively when the traveling wheel is driven so that the traveling assembly mounting mechanism 12 is fixed with respect to the traveling body 200, whereby the traveling body 200 maintains a posture with respect to the traveling direction and travels, and the first stopper assembly being capable of moving relatively when the first stopper assembly is in the unlocked state so that the traveling assembly mounting mechanism 12 is slidable with respect to the traveling body 200 when the traveling wheel is driven, whereby the posture of the traveling body 200 with respect to the traveling direction is adjusted.
As described above, when the battery changing device performs posture adjustment, the posture adjustment between the traveling wheels can be completed by differential driving. When the power conversion equipment normally moves without posture adjustment, all travelling wheels are driven to run at the same speed, and meanwhile, the sliding component 122 can be locked through the first stop component when the power conversion equipment normally moves, so that unnecessary movement of the travelling wheels is avoided.
In this embodiment, the traveling assembly mounting mechanism 12 can lock the sliding assembly 122 when the battery replacing device moves through the first stop assembly, so that the battery replacing device cannot slide, and the battery replacing device is more stable when moving, and cannot shake due to the sliding of the sliding assembly 122. When the power conversion equipment needs to be adjusted in posture and alignment of the electric vehicle, the sliding component is unlocked to enable the power conversion equipment to slide relatively, so that the power conversion equipment can be twisted relatively to be aligned with the electric vehicle, and the battery can be conveniently disassembled and assembled.
The first stop assembly includes a retractable stop rod that extends from the home position and abuts and compresses the rail 1222 in a predetermined position to limit relative movement of the rail 1222 and the slider 1223 when the first stop assembly is in the locked condition and retracts into the home position when the first stop assembly is in the unlocked condition.
The first stopper assembly is disposed corresponding to the slide rail 1222, and when the slide rail 1222 is disposed on the mounting portion 121, the corresponding slide rail 1222 is also disposed on the mounting portion 121, and when the slide rail 1222 is disposed on the slide frame 1221, the corresponding slide rail 1222 is also disposed on the slide frame 1221. The first stop assembly has a retractable stop rod that extends out and contacts the rail 1222 and applies pressure when in a locked condition, securing the first stop assembly and mounting portion 121 to the rail 1222 by friction against sliding.
In this embodiment, the detent lever employs a retractable mechanism to switch between locked and unlocked states, and when locked, the detent lever extends out of the compression rail 1222 to frictionally resist sliding movement of the slider assembly 122 relative to the rail 1222.
The telescopic direction of the stop rods points to the side surfaces of the sliding rail 1222, and the end shapes of the stop rods are matched with the shapes of the side surfaces of the sliding rail 1222 (see fig. 8), two stop rods are arranged on the upper side surface and the lower side surface of the sliding rail 1222 respectively.
In this embodiment, the two stopping rods are disposed opposite to each other, so that the sliding rail 1222 can be clamped during stopping, friction is greater, and stopping effect is better. Meanwhile, the end shape of the stop rod is matched with the side shape of the slide rail, so that the matching effect of the stop rod and the slide rail is better, and the stop effect is further improved.
The first stop assembly includes a retractable stop pin with a corresponding pin hole in the rail 1222, the stop pin extending from the home position and into the pin hole to lock to limit relative movement of the rail 1222 and the slider 1223 when the first stop assembly is in the locked state, and retracting the stop pin to the home position when the first stop assembly is in the unlocked state.
In this embodiment, the locking lever adopts telescopic mechanism to realize switching between locking and unlocking state, and first stop subassembly adopts the hole round pin structure for first stop subassembly is higher to the restriction reliability of sliding, and the locking effect is better.
In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 12-15, the first road wheel 11 and the second road wheel 21 are both sheaves that can be engaged with the guide rail 300 such that the first road wheel 11 and the second road wheel 21 travel along the guide rail 300.
By arranging the grooved wheels and the guide rails 300, the moving track of the power conversion equipment is more accurate, and meanwhile, the power conversion equipment cannot shift in position when posture adjustment is performed.
In another embodiment, the battery exchange apparatus further includes a second stopper assembly 30, as shown in fig. 13 to 16, the second stopper assembly 30 is disposed between the traveling body 200 and the sliding frame 1221 and has a locked state and an unlocked state for locking or unlocking a relative rotation state between the traveling body 200 and the traveling assembly mounting mechanism, respectively.
Specifically, the second stopper assembly 30 is mounted on a side wall of the installation groove 210 of the traveling body 200 with respect to the traveling assembly installation mechanism, and the traveling assembly installation mechanism is rotated and fixed in the horizontal plane by switching the state.
The traveling assembly mounting mechanism can lock the rotating assembly through the second stop assembly 30 when the battery changing device moves, so that the sliding frame 1221 cannot rotate relative to the traveling body 200, and the battery changing device is more stable when moving and cannot shake due to the rotating assembly. When the power conversion equipment needs to be adjusted in posture and alignment of the electric vehicle, the rotating assembly is unlocked to enable the power conversion equipment to rotate relatively, so that the power conversion equipment can be twisted relatively to align with the electric vehicle, and the battery can be conveniently disassembled and assembled.
As shown in fig. 13 to 16, the sliding frame 1221 has a gap 211 between the front and rear sides in the traveling direction and the traveling body 200, and the second stopper assembly 30 includes a telescopic wedge 31, and when the second stopper assembly 30 is in the locked state, the wedge 31 is protruded from the original position into the gap 211 to restrict the relative rotation of the sliding frame 1221 and the traveling body 200, and when the second stopper assembly 30 is in the unlocked state, the wedge 31 is retracted to the original position to release the gap 211.
Specifically, the second stopper members 30 are provided in two, respectively, on the side walls of the mounting groove 210 at both front and rear ends in the traveling direction, and the narrower end of the wedge 31 thereof is aligned with the gap 211 between the mounting groove 210 and the slide frame 1221. The rear end of the second stopping assembly 30 is a cylinder, and the wedge block 31 can be ejected out through the cylinder, and is embedded into the gap 211 and clamped, so that the front section and the rear section of the sliding frame 1221 lose the degree of freedom, the sliding frame 1221 and the mounting groove 210 of the walking body 200 are relatively fixed and cannot rotate, and the cylinder can also retract the wedge block 31 to enable the wedge block to be drawn back to the initial position, and the gap 211 is released, so that the sliding frame 1221 can rotate.
There is a gap 211 between the sliding frame 1221 and the both sides of the traveling body 200, the gap 211 can be made to have a degree of freedom of rotation, the second stopper assembly 30 is provided at the both side positions, a retractable wedge 31 is employed, the narrower end of which faces the gap 211 between the sliding frame 1221 and the traveling body 200, in the locked state, the wedge 31 protrudes to be caught in the gap 211 between the sliding frame 1221 and the traveling body 200, so that there is no degree of freedom of rotation between the sliding frame 1221 and the traveling body 200, rotation is impossible, and in the unlocked state, the wedge 31 is retracted to the original position, the gap 211 is released, and the rotation assembly can rotate.
As shown in fig. 14, the second traveling assembly 20 also includes a second stopper assembly 30 having the same structure, and is capable of preventing the second stopper assembly 30 from rotating when the power conversion apparatus is traveling normally. The second stopping assembly 30 of the second traveling assembly 20 is stopped by being caught between the wheel shaft and the sidewall of the mounting groove 210.
