Rapid battery changing on electrically powered vehicles involves driving vehicle over device for positioning batteries at defined distance beneath operating position and using built-in lifting device

摘要

The method involves driving the vehicle (A) over a device enabling batteries to be positioned at a defined distance beneath the battery operating positions and using a battery lifting device built into the vehicle powered by an auxiliary supply. Fresh batteries (D) are stored close to the charging station (B)/used battery (C) storage point. All battery movements required for changing are carried out with the aid of the vehicle.
