In the process that the male end 21 enters the female end 3 through the guide conical surface, the conical head of the male end firstly enters a round hole formed by two alignment clamping plates 31 at the female end, and the clamping plates are pushed away to two sides. When the groove of the male end 21 reaches the position of the clamping plate 31, the clamping plate stretches into the groove of the male end 21 under the action of the return spring 32, and at the moment, the limiting conical surface of the male end 21 is just contacted with the guiding conical surface of the female end 3, and the male end 21 can not move inwards any more. The clamping plate 31 clamps the groove of the male end 21 so as not to retract, thereby achieving the purpose of connection. 4, the electrical connection is accomplished by a worker or by an automated mechanism.
The disconnection process of the energy storage cabin 6 and the electric ship comprises the following steps: 1, a worker pulls out the cable connector or by an automatic mechanism to disconnect the electrical connection. 2 the female end 3 driver 33 drives the clamping plate 31 to retract from the clamping groove of the male end 21 to the open position, and the male end 21 can freely retract to finish disconnection.
The self-height-adaptive connecting device and the energy storage cabin solve the problem of height difference between the electric ship and the energy storage cabin caused by draft, and are compact in structure, convenient and reliable to operate.
It will be evident to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the foregoing illustrative embodiments and that the present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential attributes thereof, and accordingly, the foregoing embodiments are to be considered as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the invention being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.

The male end of the connector as claimed in claim 1 is a hollow revolution structure, and is characterized in that the head is in a conical surface shape and plays a role of guiding; the conical surface is a groove-shaped annular structure, and the annular groove is used as a clamping plate for clamping the female end of the connector; the end face of the conical head of the male end is made into a plane, and at least one groove is formed in the plane. A contact sensor is mounted in the recess to facilitate system validation of the connection.
6. The connector male card slot of claim 6, wherein the horizontal portion has a pair of through holes, said through holes being connected to the hollow body. The purpose is under emergency, utilize the columnar tool to stretch into this through-hole in the hollow cavity respectively and further push away female end cardboard in the recess, reach the purpose of emergency cut off.
7. The linear driving device according to claim 1 can be a winch, a hoist, a pneumatic, a gear or a hydraulic device, and is aimed at providing power for up-and-down movement of the movable body, and has the functions of stopping and locking when the movable body reaches a proper position; the linear drive is connected below or above the movable body, it being understood that the linear drive options are numerous.
8. The female connector end of claim 1, comprising a housing, a pair of catch plates, two pairs of return springs, a pair of drivers, and associated spacing structures. The connector is characterized in that the shell is of a hollow box body structure, a conical surface circular hole is formed in the end face of the shell, and the center line and the size of the conical surface circular hole are matched with the limit conical surface of the male end of the connector; two clamping plates which are symmetrically arranged are arranged in the female end box body, a semicircular through hole is formed in each of the aligned ends of the clamping plates, and the clamping plates are arranged in a clamping groove sliding track on the inner side of the female end box body; the sliding track is provided with a limiting device, so that the circle center of a round hole formed by the two clamping plates when the two clamping plates are in butt joint is ensured to be on a butt joint center line. When the female end of the connector is used as a movable end to be installed on a vertical track, the female end shell can be used as a movable body.
9. The self-height-adaptive electric ship power supply and change energy storage cabin according to claims 1 to 8 is characterized in that the self-height-adaptive connecting device according to claims 1 to 8 is installed on the basis of the water movable energy storage cabin proposed in the inventor patent application (application number 2024104461814).
