Electric card observation
Recently, the battery swap market has been a bit "quiet", and the news of car delivery and station construction is not as "flying all over the sky" as before, which shows that the current industry is more cautious about the battery swap mode.
However, this does not mean that the battery swap mode has been "abandoned" by the market, and there are still many companies sticking to this track.
This is because the advantages of the battery swap mode of new energy vehicles are obvious, such as improving the efficiency of energy replenishment, reducing the cost of initial car purchase, and ensuring battery safety.
Especially in the current situation where the penetration rate of new energy vehicles is increasing year by year, users' demand for vehicle energy supplement is getting higher and higher, and battery swapping can just solve these pain points.
However, it cannot be denied that the standardization of battery specifications, the attribution of battery safety responsibility, financial pressure and resource allocation still need to be solved, which is also the focus of the battery swap industry to promote in depth.
Bozhon Seiko has obtained CN110329220B patents to realize fast and non-collision-free vehicle battery swapping technology
On April 23, 2024, according to the announcement of the State Intellectual Property Office, Bozhon Seiko Technology Co., Ltd. obtained a project called "a floating platform without lateral force", with an authorization announcement number of CN110329220B, and the application date is June 2019.
The patent abstract shows that the invention provides a floating platform without lateral force, comprising a fixed substrate, a floating substrate, a floating column body, The clamping mechanism body; the floating column body is connected with the fixed substrate and the floating substrate; the clamping mechanism body is installed between the fixed substrate and the floating substrate; wherein; the fixed substrate is used for forming the fixed foundation of the battery swapping platform; the floating substrate is used for bearing the battery assembly; the floating column body is used for floating supporting the floating substrate, so that the floating substrate can float up and down and horizontally relative to the fixed substrate; the clamping mechanism body is used for fixing the floating substrate, so that the lateral force that the floating column body brings is offset in the process of battery swapping. The present invention is ingenious in structure, reasonable in design, makes the battery swap platform float in all directions, reduces the positioning requirement of the battery swap platform, eliminates the lateral force generated in the floating process simultaneously, avoids unnecessary bump of the battery component, satisfies the requirement of rapid battery swap of new energy vehicle, is convenient for popularization and application.
NIO: The "independent battery swapping when leaving the car" function is displayed, and the battery swap station realizes independent battery swap technology
On April 20, NIO's official Weibo released a video showing the function of "independent battery swapping when leaving the car". According to the content of the video, after the owner of NIO parked in the parking space next to the battery swap station, the vehicle could complete the battery swap process independently without the need to operate it himself, which greatly improved the battery swap efficiency.
Although NIO has not yet announced the official launch time of this feature, the demonstration of its innovative technology has undoubtedly increased the bargaining chip for NIO's competitiveness in the new energy vehicle market.
Yutong Heavy Truck released a new product for power replacement
On April 19, Yutong Heavy Truck's full-scene new product launch conference was held in Rizhao. At the meeting, Yutong heavy truck 513 degree bottom replacement electric tractor was officially released.
The model adopts the battery bottom quick-change design, which can realize 5 minutes of rapid battery replacement, and the daily operating mileage easily exceeds 1000 kilometers; the vehicle "three electrics" is safe and reliable, and the attendance rate is more guaranteed; it is equipped with a rated 530Ps and a peak 720Ps horsepower drive motor, which makes the power output smooth and strong, and the climbing and overtaking are easy.
Yuexiu Capital: Actively exploring new energy businesses such as wind power and battery swap stations
On April 18, Yuexiu Capital (000987. SZ) said on the investor interactive platform that while accelerating the layout of photovoltaic business, Yuexiu Leasing is actively exploring new energy businesses such as wind power and battery swap stations, and will land 2 wind power projects and 3 new energy battery swap businesses in 2023.

Sany Lithium Energy Xining Linglong Battery Swap Station was officially delivered
On April 16, the equipment delivery ceremony of Xining Chenda Transportation Co., Ltd., Sany Lithium Energy and Sany Heavy Industry was successfully held in the park of Xining Chenda Transportation Co., Ltd. in Ganhetan, Xining City, Qinghai Province. The battery swap mode of Sany Lithium Energy Linglong battery swap station delivered this time has high operational efficiency, with 7 core advantages and more than 200 technical patents, covering an area of only 36 square meters, and a single battery swap time is less than or equal to 3.5 minutes, which greatly improves the transportation efficiency.
Tianjin Port joined hands with Qiyuan Core Power to start the construction of Tianjin's first new energy battery swap station with integrated optical storage and charging
On April 10, the bulk cargo flow company under Tianjin Port Group and Qiyuan Core Power officially signed the "Strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement", reached an in-depth consensus on the "construction and operation demonstration of heavy truck battery swap station", and immediately launched the construction project of "Tianjin's first new energy heavy truck public battery swap station with integrated optical storage and charging".
Relying on their respective industrial advantages, the two parties will choose to locate the bulk cargo flow area located in the main channel of Tianjin Port, and invest in the construction of a new energy charging and swapping base. After the photovoltaic storage and charging heavy truck battery swap station is put into operation, it will provide 3-5 minutes of rapid battery swap service, which greatly shortens the energy replenishment time and improves logistics efficiency.
