Electricity supply vehicle

Abstract

An electricity supply vehicle is provided with an electricity storage device charged with generated energy of an electric generator driven by an internal combustion engine mounted on the electricity supply vehicle or with regenerated energy of the electricity supply vehicle and is operable to supply electricity to an external equipment located outside of the electricity supply vehicle during stop of the electricity supply vehicle. The electricity supply vehicle includes: a setting unit configured to set expected supply electric energy to be supplied to the external equipment; and a determining unit configured to determine, based on the expected supply electric energy, a target charging amount of the electricity storage device to be charged during running of the electricity supply vehicle.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is based upon and claims the benefit of priority from prior Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-254576 filed on November 22, 2011, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The subject matter of the present disclosure relates to a power supply vehicle that is provided with a power storage device that is charged with energy generated by a generator driven by an internal combustion engine and supplies power to external equipment located outside the vehicle during the stop of the vehicle or Use the vehicle's regenerative energy to charge. Background technique [0004] There is an electric vehicle in which an internal combustion engine and an electric motor are installed, and thus the wheels are driven by one or both of them. In this electric vehicle, control is performed such that when the remaining charge rate (remaining charge amount) of the power stor...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

When using an external device on a vehicle at a place visited during a trip, a problem arises: since the usage time of the external device is after the operation of the vehicle, it is not possible to ensure that there is a sufficient remaining charge rate in the battery

Therefore, no consideration is given to using external devices after running

In addition, also in a general hybrid car, although a fixed charge rate is always secured, the secured charge rate (target charge rate) has a fixed value and therefore cannot secure the power to be used by external devices
