Design of Battery Fast-Swap System for Electric Vehicle

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study proposes a solution to the problems with electric vehicles, which are characterized by short driving range and long time for charging. The battery fast-swap system we studied includes generality power battery, locking system and auto battery pack fast-swap equipment, which only takes owners about four minutes to finish a completed auto power battery swap procedure. At the same time, we use virtual prototyping software hyperworks to evaluate the strength and stiffness of the structure of the battery fast-swap system, all parameters above can meet requirement of mechanical property for electric vehicles. Moreover, we propose a novel business model of “naked car sales-battery lease-battery swap”, which can improve the problem of energy supply in electric vehicle. Particularly, it has a certain significance to perfect the building of charging/battery swap infrastructure standard system.
