And step 430, determining a target battery pack according to the power change demand data.
The number of the target batteries in the target battery pack is the power conversion number.
Optionally, if the battery life is further included in the power conversion requirement data, the determined target battery needs to meet the battery life.
Illustratively, if one or more target batteries need to be determined, the determined target batteries need to be less than the battery life. For example, if the battery life is three years, the determined life of the target battery is not more than three years.
For example, if a plurality of target batteries need to be determined, the average age difference of the plurality of target batteries is less than the battery age, e.g., if the battery age is two years, the average age of all target batteries is less than two years.
For example, if it is desired to determine a plurality of target batteries, the difference in the service lives of the plurality of target batteries is not greater than the service life of the battery, for example, if the service life of the battery is 0.5, the difference in the service lives of any two target batteries among all the target batteries is not greater than 0.5.

And step 440, installing each target battery in the target battery group at each battery storage position of the target vehicle according to the target type parameter.
For example, the target position of the battery installed by the conveying tool when the battery needs to be replaced for the target vehicle can be determined according to the target type parameter. The conveyance may mount each target battery in the target battery pack at each battery storage location of the target vehicle at the target location.
Alternatively, after the target battery is determined, the control device may notify the control of the delivery system in the battery exchange station to exchange the battery to be exchanged on the target vehicle.
The conveyance means is controlled by a PLC controller in the conveyance system, for example, such that the conveyance means transports and installs the target battery in the target battery pack, and the conveyance means removes and transports the battery to be replaced on the target vehicle.
In an alternative embodiment, step 440 may include step 441 and step 442.
Step 441 removes the ith battery to be replaced from the ith battery storage compartment of the target vehicle.
A plurality of battery storage locations may be provided on the target vehicle, each of which may be used to house a battery. The number of battery storage locations on the vehicle may be different, and specifically may be set according to the actual requirements of the vehicle.
Wherein i is a positive integer greater than or equal to one and less than or equal to the number of power changes.
For example, when the number of the power changes is 2, the values of i are sequentially 1 and 2. For another example, when the number of power changes is 3, the i has values of 1, 2, and 3.
In this embodiment, the battery to be replaced taken out of the target vehicle may be replaced in the battery compartment of the battery replacement station. The battery compartment can charge the battery to be replaced for the next time to continue to use.
For example, the conveyance may be controlled to detach the ith battery to be replaced from the ith battery storage compartment of the target vehicle.
Step 442, obtaining an ith target battery in the target battery pack, and placing the ith target battery in the ith battery storage location on the target vehicle.
Illustratively, if the target battery is an available battery in the battery compartment of the battery replacement station, step 442 may place the i-th target battery in the i-th battery storage location on the target vehicle for retrieving the i-th target battery from the battery compartment.
After the disassembly of the battery to be replaced and the installation of the target battery are performed once each time, the value of i is increased by 1, and then steps 441 and 442 are performed again until the value of i is equal to the number of battery replacement.
In order to reduce the number of movements of the transport work, the transport tool can continue to remove the battery to be replaced from the next battery storage position of the target vehicle each time after the transport tool has mounted the target battery in the battery storage position of the target vehicle, before returning to the battery storage position.
In particular, step 441 may be implemented as: and controlling the conveying tool to move to the ith battery storage position of the target vehicle, and detaching the ith battery to be replaced from the ith battery storage position of the target vehicle.
Illustratively, the delivery vehicle is placed within the battery compartment when not in use.
When the conveying tool is used for detaching the first battery to be replaced from the target vehicle, the conveying tool is first taken out of the battery compartment without carrying the target battery, and the empty conveying tool can be moved to the target vehicle from the battery compartment so as to detach the first battery to be replaced in the first battery storage position of the target vehicle.
Step 442 may be implemented as: and controlling the conveying tool to acquire an ith target battery in the target battery pack, and placing the ith target battery in the ith battery storage position on the target vehicle.
When the target vehicle further comprises a battery to be replaced, the conveying tool moves to the (i+1) th battery storage position of the target vehicle before returning to the battery compartment, and the (i+1) th battery to be replaced is detached from the (i+1) th battery storage position of the target vehicle.
That is, it will be appreciated that when i+1 is less than or equal to the specified number, the conveyance of the i+1 pass out of the battery compartment will continue to remove the i+1 th battery to be replaced from the i+1 th battery storage compartment of the target vehicle before returning to the battery compartment, thereby reducing the number of times the conveyance is out of the battery compartment.
When i+1 is greater than the specified number, at which point the battery on the target vehicle that needs to be replaced has been replaced, the transport tool that is the i+1 pass out of the battery compartment returns the empty vehicle into the battery compartment.
The battery replacement process of the target vehicle will be described below taking the number of battery replacements as two as an example.
After the electricity changing number and the target battery pack are determined, the conveying tool RGV trolley can be controlled by a PLC (programmable logic controller) in the conveying system to detach the battery and install the battery, and the detaching flow of the battery and the installing flow of the battery can be shown as shown in fig. 4.
At step 443, the conveyance is controlled to move to the first battery storage location of the target vehicle, and the first battery to be replaced is removed from the first battery storage location of the target vehicle.
Illustratively, the conveyance is first controlled to move from the battery compartment to the neutral position; then, controlling the conveying tool to move from the transit position to the first battery storage position of the target vehicle; when the conveying tool is positioned at the first battery storage position of the target vehicle, the conveying tool is controlled to detach the first battery to be replaced from the first battery storage position of the target vehicle.
The transit location is located below the current location of the target vehicle.
The first path of travel of the conveyor from the battery compartment to the transfer location may be, for example, two paths in different directions than the second path of travel from the transfer location to the first battery storage location. For example, the first route and the second route may be perpendicular routes, or may form other included angles.
Therefore, after the conveying tool moves from the battery compartment to the transfer position, the rotating direction of the conveying tool can be controlled first, and then the conveying tool moves from the transfer position to the first battery storage position. For example, if the first and second routes may be perpendicular routes, the conveyance may be rotated ninety degrees. Of course, if the first path and the second path form other angles, the required rotation angle for controlling the rotation direction of the conveying tool is different.
For example, the first battery storage location may be located below a front seat of the target vehicle, and the staging location may be below a floor between the front and rear seats of the target vehicle.
The transport means, after moving from the transfer position in the direction of the head, can reach the first battery storage position of the target vehicle.
Step 444, controlling the conveying tool to convey the first to-be-replaced battery to a battery compartment, and acquiring the first target battery in the target battery pack from the battery compartment.
Alternatively, the conveyance may be controlled to acquire the first target battery in the target battery group from the position where the first target battery is located.
Illustratively, a transport carrying a first target battery is controlled to move from a first battery storage location to a staging location and then from the staging location to a battery compartment; then, the conveying tool is controlled, and the first target battery is obtained from the position of the first target battery in the battery compartment.
Step 445, controlling the conveying means to convey the first target battery to the first battery storage location and place the first target battery in the first battery storage location.
Illustratively, a transport loaded with a first target battery is first controlled to move from a battery compartment to a neutral position; then, controlling the conveying tool to move from the transit position to the first battery storage position of the target vehicle; the conveyance is controlled to place a first target battery in a first battery storage location of the target vehicle while the conveyance is located at the first battery storage location of the target vehicle.
At 446, the conveyance is controlled to move from the first battery storage location to a second battery storage location of the target vehicle, and a second battery to be replaced is removed from the second battery storage location of the target vehicle.
The second battery storage location may be located, for example, below a rear seat of the subject vehicle.
The conveyor tool, after moving from the first battery storage location in the aft direction, can reach the second battery storage location of the target vehicle.
And 447, controlling the conveying tool to convey the second to-be-replaced battery to a battery compartment, and acquiring a second target battery in the target battery pack from the battery compartment.
Illustratively, the transport means loaded with a second battery to be replaced is controlled to move from the second battery storage location to a staging location and then from the staging location to the battery compartment; then, the conveying tool is controlled to acquire the second target battery from the placement position of the second target battery in the battery compartment.
