Abstract
Mobile swappable battery for a powered workstation. In an embodiment of a mobile swappable battery sized for detachable coupling with a base of a powered workstation of the present disclosure, the battery comprises a wheeled housing enclosing a portion of the battery, wherein the wheeled housing comprises at least two wheels attached to a bottom side of the housing, and a collapsible handle for pushing and guiding the wheeled housing into detachable alignment with a battery guide in the base of the powered workstation.
Claims19
A mobile swappable battery sized for coupling with a base of a powered workstation, comprising:
- a wheeled housing enclosing a portion of the mobile swappable battery and comprising wheels attached to a bottom side of the wheeled housing so the wheeled housing rolls along the ground when pushed;
- the wheels sized so the mobile swappable battery is of appropriate height to align with a battery guide in the base of the powered workstation;
- and
- wherein the wheeled housing and wheels are configured to be rolled along the ground to enter the base of the powered workstation to electrically couple the mobile swappable battery to a battery connection contact within the base of the powered workstation without needing to lift the mobile swappable battery as the mobile swappable battery is already at the appropriate height and can just be pushed and guided into proper alignment with the battery guide.
A mobile swappable battery sized for detachable coupling with a base of a powered workstation, comprising:
- a wheeled housing enclosing a portion of the mobile swappable battery, wherein the wheeled housing comprises:
- at least one wheel attached to a bottom side of the wheeled housing so the wheeled housing rolls along the ground when pushed;
- the at least one wheel sized so the mobile swappable battery is of appropriate height to align with a battery guide in the base of the powered workstation;
- and
- a handle for guiding the wheeled housing into alignment with the base of the powered workstation;
- and
- wherein the wheeled housing and the at least one wheel are configured so that the wheeled housing rolls along the ground to enter the base of the powered workstation to electrically couple the mobile swappable battery to a battery connection contact within the base of the powered workstation without needing to lift the mobile swappable battery as the mobile swappable battery is already at the appropriate height and can just be pushed and guided into proper alignment with the battery guide.
A system for a powered workstation with a swappable battery, comprising:
- a powered workstation having a battery guide at a base of the powered workstation, the battery guide sized to fit a mobile swappable battery;
- the mobile swappable battery comprising a handle for guiding the mobile swappable battery into the battery guide;
- the mobile swappable battery further comprising a wheeled housing and wheels attached to a bottom side of the wheeled housing so the wheeled housing rolls along the ground when pushed;
- and
- the wheels sized so the mobile swappable battery is of appropriate height to align with the battery guide in the base of the powered workstation;
- and
- wherein the wheeled housing is configured so that the mobile swappable battery can slide into the battery guide and electrically connect to the powered workstation while the wheeled housing rolls along the ground without needing to lift the mobile swappable battery as the mobile swappable battery is already at the appropriate height and can just be pushed and guided into proper alignment with the battery guide.
