Claim 7:
8. The battery charging and swapping system as claimed in claim 7, wherein:
for each first battery charging apparatus, said first charging rail includes two first electrode plates that are disposed in said first conveying space of said first charging station, that are spaced apart from each other, that are parallel to each other, and that cooperate with each other to supply the electrical energy;
for each first battery charging apparatus, each of said first electrode plates has
a first upward section that extends in the up-down direction along said first upward conveying subspace of said first conveying space,
a first downward section that extends in the up-down direction along said first downward conveying subspace of said first conveying space, and
a first interconnecting section that interconnects top ends of said first upward section and said first downward section, and that extends in the front-rear direction in said first upper communicating subspace of said first conveying space;

for each charging seat, said power receiving unit includes
a shaft that is mounted to said seat body, and that is rotatable relative to said seat body about an imaginary axis extending in a left-right direction perpendicular to the front-rear direction and the up-down direction, and
two conductive members that are mounted to said shaft, that are diametrically opposite to each other with respect to the imaginary axis, that cooperate with each other to receive the electrical energy when respectively and electrically coupled to said first electrode plates of said first charging rail of one of said first battery charging apparatuses, and that are co-movable with said seat body along said first electrode plates; and

for each charging seat, said shaft is rotatable relative to said first electrode plates of one of said first battery charging apparatuses such that said conductive members are convertible between a first tilting state, in which said conductive members cooperate with the imaginary axis to define an imaginary plane that is tilted at a first angle with respect to a reference horizontal surface so that said seat body is allowed to move upwardly along said first upward sections to said first interconnecting sections and rearwardly along said first interconnecting sections of said first electrode plates, and a second tilting state, in which the imaginary plane is tilted at a second angle with respect to the reference horizontal surface so that said seat body is allowed to move rearwardly along said first interconnecting sections to said first downward sections and downwardly along said first downward sections of said first electrode plates.
