Swappable battery pack system and a method thereof

A casing (110) for a swappable battery pack (150), the casing 110 comprising:

• a first, a second, a third and a fourth side plane coupled to each other to define a hollow space;
• a first pair of rail elements (130) having a first length (L1) defined on an inner surface (142) and parallel to a longitudinal axis (X-X′) of each of the first and the third side plane (112, 116);
• a first pair of guide elements (132) having a second length (L2) defined on the inner surface (142) of one of the first and the third side plane and parallel to a longitudinal axis (X-X′) of one of the first and the third side plane (112, 116);
• and
• a first connector (134) coupled to a first end of the inner surface (142) of one of the first and the third side plane (112, 116) and positioned in between the first pair of guide elements (132);
• wherein in the event of sliding a battery pack (150) within the casing (110):
• the first pair of rail elements (130) of the casing (110) engage with a corresponding second pair of guide elements (164) of the battery pack (150) to form a first connection;
• the first pair of guide elements (132) of the casing (110) engage with a corresponding second pair of rail elements (166) of the battery pack (150) to form a second connection subsequent to the first connection;
• and
• the first connector (134) of the casing (110) is received within a corresponding second connector (178) of the battery pack (150) to form a third connection subsequent to the second connection, thereby providing electric power to an entity affixed to the casing (110).

A method for providing a swappable battery pack within a casing,

• the method comprising the steps of:
• coupling a first, a second, a third, and a fourth side plane to each other to form the casing defining a hollow space therein;
• defining a first pair of rail elements having a first length on an inner surface and parallel to a longitudinal axis of each of the first and the third side plane;
• defining a first pair of guide elements having a second length on the inner surface of one of the first and the third side plane and parallel to the longitudinal axis of one of the first and the third side plane;
• coupling a first connector on the inner surface, adjacent to a first end of one of the first and the third side plane and positioned in between the first pair of guide elements;
• and
• slidably disposing the battery pack within the casing, the battery pack having a second pair of guide elements and a second pair of rail elements defined parallel to a longitudinal axis on an outer surface of the battery pack so as to abut against the first pair of rail elements and a first pair of guide elements, and a second connector coupled to one end of the outer surface of the battery pack, wherein in the event of sliding the battery pack within the casing:
• the first pair of rail elements of the casing engage with the second pair of guide elements of the battery pack forming a first connection;
• the first pair of guide elements of the casing engage with the second pair of rail elements of the battery pack forming a second connection subsequent to the first connection;
• and
• the first connector of the casing is received within the second connector of the battery pack forming a third connection subsequent to the second connection, thereby providing electric power to an entity affixed to the casing.
