[0097] The exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0098] Embodiment 1

[0099] Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a charging authentication payment method, which is applied to the scenario of electric vehicle charging. Since the charging amount of electric vehicles is large, the home cannot provide a matching charging plug to meet its charging needs. Therefore, it is currently possible to set up a public charging pile and use the public charging pile to charge the electric vehicle to meet the current charging needs of electric vehicles.

[0100] like Figure 1 As shown, the charging authentication payment method includes:

[0101] S101, receiving first biometric information of a user sent by a charging pile, where a biometric collection unit is provided on the charging pile, and the first biometric information is collected by the charging pile through the biometric collection unit.

[0102] S102: Authenticate the first biometric information.

[0103] S103, when the authentication is passed, sending a charging start instruction to the charging pile to control the charging pile to charge the connected vehicle.

[0104] S104, after charging is completed, receiving second biometric information of the user sent by the charging pile, where the second biometric information is collected by the charging pile through a biometric collection unit.

[0105] S105: Based on the second biometric information, deduct payment from the payment account bound to the second biometric information.

[0106] The first biometric information and the second biometric information are any of the following:

[0107] Fingerprint information, facial feature information, voice feature information, iris feature information, posture feature information, handwriting feature information.

[0108] The method includes multiple implementations. In a first implementation, the first biometric information and the second biometric information used are different biometric information; in a second implementation, the first biometric information and the second biometric information used are the same biometric information.

[0109] For example, in the first embodiment, the first biometric information and the second biometric information used are fingerprint information and facial feature information, respectively. In the second embodiment, the first biometric information and the second biometric information used are both fingerprint information.

[0110] The biometric feature collection unit is specifically any one or more of the following:

[0111] Fingerprint acquisition unit, image acquisition unit, sound acquisition unit, touch acquisition unit.

[0112] The image acquisition unit can be used to collect the user's facial feature information, posture feature information, and iris feature information. The voice acquisition unit is used to use the user's voice feature information, the touch acquisition unit is used to collect the user's handwriting feature information, and the fingerprint acquisition unit is used to collect the user's fingerprint information.

[0113] When the first biometric information and the second biometric information are of the same type, a biometric collection unit is provided on the charging pile to collect the first biometric information and the second biometric information. For example, when the image collection unit is provided, facial feature information of the user can be collected.

[0114] When the first biometric information and the second biometric information are different types of biometric information, one biometric collection unit may be provided on the charging pile, or two biometric collection units may be provided on the charging pile. For example, an image collection unit may be provided to collect facial feature information of the user, or to collect posture feature information of the user. When a fingerprint collection unit and a sound collection unit are provided, the fingerprint information of the user may be collected by the fingerprint collection unit, and the sound feature information of the user may be collected by the sound collection unit.

[0115] Next, the entire scheme is described in detail.

[0116] S101, receiving first biometric information of a user sent by a charging pile, taking the first biometric information as fingerprint information as an example, specifically fingerprint information collected by a fingerprint collection unit.

[0117] The fingerprint collection unit can be set on the charging gun, and the user can complete the collection of fingerprint information when the charging gun is unplugged to prepare for charging; or the fingerprint collection unit can be set on the charging pile, and the user can complete the collection of fingerprint information when the unlocking buckle button of the charging gun is turned on.

[0118] After receiving the first biometric characteristic information collected by the charging pile, the charging pile sends the first biometric characteristic information to the server, and executes S102 to authenticate the first biometric characteristic information.

[0119] Specifically, a search is performed from a registered user database to determine whether the first biometric information exists, wherein the registered user database stores the first biometric information of each registered user for authenticating identity information. The first biometric information of each registered user for authenticating identity information may be the same type of biometric information or different types of biometric information. For example, some first biometric information for authenticating identity information may be fingerprint information, some may be facial feature information, some may be voice feature information, and so on.

[0120] Then, if the first biometric characteristic information, that is, the fingerprint information, is found, the authentication is passed. If the first biometric characteristic information is not found, the authentication is not passed.

[0121] Then, S103 is executed, and when the authentication is passed, a charging start instruction is sent to the charging pile to control the charging pile to charge the connected vehicle.

[0122] In an optional implementation, when the authentication is passed, the charging pile is directly controlled to start the charging function to start charging.

[0123] In another optional embodiment, when the authentication is passed, the VIN code of the vehicle sent by the charging pile is received, and the VIN code is read from the vehicle by the charging gun when the charging gun is inserted into the charging port of the vehicle; based on the registered user database, it is determined whether the VIN code is the VIN code bound to the first biometric information. The registered user database stores the first biometric information of each registered user for authenticating identity information, and the VIN code of the vehicle bound to the first biometric information; if so, a charging start instruction is sent to the charging pile to control the charging pile to charge the vehicle.

[0124] Specifically, the VIN code is the unique identification code of the vehicle. By authenticating the binding status of the vehicle's VIN code, the server can be informed of the situation when an illegal user steals a vehicle that does not belong to him. Of course, if the binding status of the vehicle's VIN code is authenticated and it is determined that its authority is normal, the charging operation is allowed. The use of the VIN code authentication method can avoid the risk of vehicle theft.

[0125] The charging pile is also provided with an indicator light or a display screen for indicating the above-mentioned first biometric information authentication result and the VIN code authentication result.

[0126] For example, when an indicator light is used, the flashing of the indicator light indicates that the authentication is passed, and the extinguishing of the indicator light indicates that the authentication is not passed; the long lighting of the indicator light indicates that the authentication is passed, and the extinguishing of the indicator light indicates that the authentication is not passed.

[0127] When a display screen is used, the authentication result or the authentication result of the VIN code can be indicated by simple characters on the display screen. For example, OK indicates that the authentication is passed or the authentication is passed, and NO indicates that the authentication is not passed or the authentication is not passed.

[0128] In an optional implementation manner, before S101, the method further includes:

[0129] The user's registration information is received, where the user's registration information includes the user's payment account information, the vehicle's VIN code, the user's first biometric information, and the user's second biometric information.

[0130] The user's payment account information, VIN code, first biometric information and second biometric information are bound, and the binding result is stored in a registered user database.

[0131] Specifically, the user's registration information is received through the user's terminal device, that is, the user's registration information is uploaded through the user's terminal device. When binding the registration information, the first biometric information can be bound to the VIN code, and the second biometric information can be bound to the payment account information. Alternatively, the first biometric information and the second biometric information can be bound to the VIN code and the payment account information.

[0132] Execute S104 to receive the second biometric information of the user sent by the charging pile after the charging is completed.

[0133] Specifically, after charging is completed, the charging completion information sent by the charging pile is received, the charging completion information is displayed through the charging pile, and the first prompt information is output through the charging pile. The first prompt information is used to prompt the user to provide second biometric information, so that the charging pile collects the second biometric information through the biometric collection unit; then, the second biometric information of the user sent by the charging pile is received.

[0134] After charging is completed, the charging pile outputs a first prompt message to prompt the user to cooperate in reaching a preset position, or to prompt the user to cooperate in performing a preset operation, so that the biometric feature collection unit collects the second biometric feature information.

[0135] Specifically, the user is prompted to reach a marked location near the charging pile, or the user is prompted to place a hand on a biometric feature collection unit on the charging pile, and so on.

[0136] After receiving the charging end information sent by the charging pile, the charging pile can provide multiple types of second biometric information options for the user to choose from. When the first biometric information and the second biometric information are the same, the biometric information collected during authentication can be selected; when the first biometric information and the second biometric information are different, a biometric different from the biometric information collected during authentication can be selected.

[0137] After selecting any type of second biometric option, the user is prompted how to provide the second biometric information.

[0138] The charging end information is generated by the charging pile in several ways:

[0139] One is that the charging pile generates charging end information when it detects that the charging gun is disconnected from the vehicle charging port. The other is that when the charging gun is inserted into the vehicle charging port for charging and an operation to terminate charging is detected, charging end information is generated.

[0140] The charging end information includes the current charging duration information or charging amount information, and a preset field indicating the end of the current charging. The operation of terminating the charging includes any one of the following:

[0141] The user turns off the charging switch of the charging gun and terminates the charging with voice control instructions.

[0142] In a specific implementation, one is that after the charging pile finishes charging the vehicle, that is, the vehicle is fully charged, it will automatically disconnect the charging gun from the vehicle's charging port, so that the charging pile detects the information that the charging gun is disconnected from the vehicle's charging port.

[0143] The other is that the charging pile is in the process of charging the vehicle, that is, the vehicle is not fully charged. If the user presses the charging switch on the charging pile, the charging process is stopped, or the user directly says "stop charging", the charging process is also stopped.

[0144] Both of the above methods can enable the charging pile to generate charging end information.

[0145] After the charging pile generates the charging end information, the pile cloud platform will obtain the charging end information. The charging pile will also send the time when the charging pile starts charging and the time when the charging pile ends charging to the pile cloud platform, so that the pile cloud platform can obtain the charging time information or the charging amount information.

[0146] Next, the pile cloud platform will obtain the charging cost information based on the charging time information or the charging amount information, and send the charging cost information to the server.

[0147] Finally, in S105, based on the second biometric information, payment is deducted from the payment account bound to the second biometric information.

[0148] Specifically, the payment account bound to the second biometric information is queried based on the registered user data, wherein the payment account bound to the second biometric information of each registered user is also stored in the registered user database.

[0149] Based on the payment account and charging fee information bound to the second biometric information, payment is deducted from the payment account bound to the second biometric information. The charging fee information is obtained by the pile cloud platform based on the charging time or charging amount information of the charging pile.

[0150] When making deductions for payment, there may be a situation where the balance in the payment account is insufficient to cover the current charging fee. In order to ensure that the user's charging can proceed smoothly, the user can charge first and then make up the outstanding balance.

[0151] Specifically, after finding the payment account bound to the second biometric information, the server compares the balance information in the payment account with the charging fee information; then when the balance is less than the charging fee, the balance in the payment account is replenished and the replenished fee is stored as the outstanding amount information.

[0152] In this way, the user's charging process will not be affected. The outstanding balance information can be used to remind the user to repay the outstanding balance before charging next time.

[0153] Therefore, S103, that is, when the authentication is passed, sending a charging start instruction to the charging pile to control the charging pile to charge the connected vehicle, includes:

[0154] After the authentication is passed, the payment details of the user's last charging are obtained. When the payment details indicate that the user has not completed the full payment of the last charging fee, a second prompt message is sent to the user's terminal device, and the second prompt message is used to prompt the user to pay the fee for the last charging.

[0155] The failure to pay the full amount of the last charging fee includes: only part of the fee was paid for the last charging, and there is a partial outstanding balance; or the full amount was not paid for the last charging, and there is a full outstanding balance.

[0156] Partial arrears means that the account balance of the above user is less than the last charging fee. Full arrears means that the user did not pay directly after the last charging.

[0157] So, no matter which of the above situations is true, before starting the current charging, you need to make up for the previous charging fee or pay it in full before you can execute the current charging start instruction.

[0158] Therefore, when the payment information of the last charging fee is received, a charging start instruction is sent to the charging pile to control the charging pile to charge the connected vehicle.

[0159] Of course, if the payment details indicate that the user has completed the full payment of the last charging fee, a charging start instruction is sent to the charging pile to control the charging pile to charge the connected vehicle.

[0160] In the above manner, after the payment is deducted from the payment account bound to the second biometric information, charging order information is generated and sent to the user's terminal device, so that the user can subsequently trace the order based on the charging order information.

[0161] One or more technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0162] The present invention provides a charging authentication payment method, which is applied to a server, comprising: receiving first biometric information of a user sent by a charging pile, the charging pile being provided with a biometric collection unit, the first biometric information being collected by the charging pile through the biometric collection unit; authenticating the first biometric information; when the authentication is passed, sending a charging start instruction to the charging pile to control the charging pile to charge a connected vehicle; after charging is completed, receiving second biometric information of the user sent by the charging pile, the second biometric information being collected by the charging pile through the biometric collection unit; based on the second biometric information, deducting payment from a payment account bound to the second biometric information, by collecting the biometric information twice, only the charging pile needs to actively collect the information, and no user operation is required, and by collecting the biometric information twice, higher security is achieved when making charging payments.
