20140360011 | DEVICE FOR INSTALLING AND UNINSTALLING A VEHICLE BATTERY - A device for installing and uninstalling a battery on an underside of an electric or hybrid vehicle, the underside of the vehicle lying within a first substantially horizontal plane. The device includes a lift table that vertically moves an engaging member capable of engaging with the underside of the vehicle. The engaging member is moved by the table to mechanically engage with the underside of the vehicle, the underside of the member then being arranged in a second substantially horizontal plane in a state in which, due to a relative inclination between the first and second plane, the engaging member cannot engage with the underside of the vehicle. The lift table is raised using at least two cables, the elasticity of which makes it possible to compensate for the relative inclination of the two planes to enable the engaging member to engage with the underside of the vehicle. | 12-11-2014 |
