Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of new energy vehicle technology, and in particular to a vehicle charging method, platform and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] With the widespread application of new energy charging vehicles, various types of charging piles developed by different manufacturers have emerged in the market. Vehicle users use these charging piles to charge their vehicles.

[0003] Currently, when a vehicle user uses a specific type of charging station to charge their vehicle, the charging method is as follows: The user downloads an application developed by the charging station manufacturer onto their user terminal. Using this application, the user scans and decodes the graphic code on the charging station's identification, obtaining the charging station's identifier and the identifier of the charging station to which it belongs. The user terminal then sends a charging request containing the charging station's identifier and the charging station's identifier to the manufacturer's server associated with the application. In response to the charging request, the manufacturer's server powers on the charging station corresponding to the identifier, allowing the vehicle user to then use that charging station to charge their vehicle.

[0004] Because different manufacturers' applications use different decoding methods for the identification graphic codes, these applications are not interoperable. Vehicle users must download the corresponding manufacturer's application before using a particular charging station. Current vehicle charging methods force users to spend considerable time and effort downloading and learning multiple applications. Therefore, existing vehicle charging methods suffer from poor charging convenience, negatively impacting the user experience of charging new energy vehicles. Summary of the Invention

[0046] The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and form part of this specification, illustrate embodiments consistent with this application and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of this application.

[0047] Figure 1 This application provides a vehicle charging scenario diagram;

[0048] Figure 2 This is another vehicle charging scenario diagram provided in an embodiment of this application;

[0049] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a vehicle charging method provided in an embodiment of this application;

[0050] Figure 4 A structural diagram of a vehicle charging platform provided in an embodiment of this application;

[0051] Figure 5 Another structural diagram of the vehicle charging platform provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0052] The accompanying drawings have illustrated specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to specific embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0053] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0054] The widespread adoption of new energy charging vehicles has led to the emergence of various manufacturers developing different types of vehicle charging equipment, such as charging piles. Different manufacturers also develop corresponding applications for their respective vehicle charging equipment. Figure 1 This application provides a diagram illustrating a vehicle charging scenario. Figure 1 As shown, the existing vehicle charging method is as follows: The vehicle user pre-downloads the application of the manufacturer of the vehicle charging equipment (such as manufacturer A or manufacturer B) through the user terminal 11. Using this application, the user scans and decodes the identification graphic code on the vehicle charging equipment 13 to obtain the charging pile identifier and the site identifier of the charging station to which the vehicle charging equipment 13 belongs. The user terminal 11 sends a charging request containing the charging pile identifier and the site identifier to the manufacturer server 12 associated with the application. In response to the charging request, the manufacturer server 12 powers on the vehicle charging equipment 13 corresponding to the charging pile identifier, and the vehicle user can then use the vehicle charging equipment 13 to charge the vehicle.

[0055] Different manufacturers' vehicle charging equipment operates under different rules, and the decoding methods for the graphic codes on the charging equipment 13 vary, resulting in different and incompatible applications from different manufacturers. Vehicle users must download the application from the manufacturer of a particular charging equipment 13 before using it. Therefore, existing vehicle charging methods force users to spend considerable time and effort downloading and learning numerous applications, leading to poor charging convenience and negatively impacting their user experience with new energy vehicles.

[0056] To address this issue, this application provides a vehicle charging method. By acquiring a charging request sent by a user terminal and identifying the encoding format of the charging information of the corresponding vehicle charging device, the method determines the manufacturer of the charging device. The method then sends a charging request to the manufacturer's server, enabling the manufacturer's server to control the charging device to initiate charging operations, thereby charging the user's vehicle. This vehicle charging method eliminates the need to download multiple applications from different manufacturers, allowing users to charge vehicles using charging devices from various manufacturers, thus solving the problem of poor convenience in existing vehicle charging methods.

[0057] The vehicle charging method provided in this application will be described below with reference to some embodiments. In this application, the vehicle user is referred to as "user".

[0058] Figure 2 This is another vehicle charging scenario diagram provided as an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 2As shown, the user obtains charging information by scanning the charging identifier on the vehicle charging device 13 through the user terminal 11, and sends a charging request containing this charging information to the vehicle charging platform 21. The vehicle charging platform 21 receives the charging request sent by the user terminal 11. The vehicle charging platform 21 identifies the encoding format of the charging information in the charging request, and determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs based on the encoding format of the charging information. After determining the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs, the vehicle charging platform 21 sends a charging request to the manufacturer server 12 corresponding to the manufacturer's identification information, so that the manufacturer server 12 controls the vehicle charging device 13 to start the charging operation according to the charging information, so that the vehicle charging device 13 can charge the user's vehicle.

[0059] The charging identifier can be a QR code. The charging information can be the pixel information of the QR code. The manufacturer's identification information can be any of the following: manufacturer name, manufacturer code, manufacturer domain name, or manufacturer server IP address. For example, assume that vehicle charging device 13 belongs to manufacturer A. The user obtains charging information by scanning the QR code on vehicle charging device 13 through user terminal 11 and sends a charging request containing this information to vehicle charging platform 21. Vehicle charging platform 21 receives the charging request sent by user terminal 11. Vehicle charging platform 21 identifies the encoding format of the charging information in the charging request and determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which vehicle charging device 13 belongs based on the encoding format of the charging information. For example, vehicle charging platform 21 converts the charging information in the charging request into binary information (such as a binary number string). Typically, this binary information is generated by encoding version mode information, data, and error correction codes (or padding codes) using a certain encoding method. Different manufacturers use different encoding methods, resulting in different encoding formats. Vehicle charging platform 21 identifies the encoding format of this binary information. Based on the identified encoding format and a pre-established correspondence between encoding formats and manufacturers, the vehicle charging platform 21 determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs. For example, the vehicle charging platform 21 determines the server IP address of manufacturer A to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs. The vehicle charging platform 21 sends a charging request to the manufacturer server 12 corresponding to the server IP address of manufacturer A, so that the manufacturer server 12 controls the vehicle charging device 13 to start the charging operation based on the charging information, thereby enabling the vehicle charging device 13 to charge the user's vehicle.

[0060] The vehicle charging method provided in this application identifies the encoding format of the charging information of the vehicle charging device in the charging request sent by the user terminal. Based on the identified encoding format, it determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device belongs, and sends a charging request to the manufacturer's server corresponding to the manufacturer's identification information. This allows the manufacturer's server to control the vehicle charging device to start the charging operation based on the charging information in the charging request, thus enabling the vehicle charging device to charge the user's vehicle. The vehicle charging method provided in this application eliminates the need for vehicle users to download multiple manufacturers' applications, allowing them to use vehicle charging devices from different manufacturers to charge their vehicles. This solves the problem of poor charging convenience in existing vehicle charging methods, greatly reducing the time and effort users spend downloading and learning different manufacturers' applications, and significantly improving the user experience of new energy charging vehicles.

[0061] The following is combined Figure 2 and Figure 3 The vehicle charging method provided in this application is described. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a vehicle charging method provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 The execution subject of the embodiment shown is Figure 2 The vehicle charging platform 21 in the illustrated embodiment. (As shown) Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0062] S301. Obtain a charging request sent by the user terminal; the charging request includes charging information obtained by the user through scanning the charging identifier on the vehicle charging equipment using the user terminal.

[0063] Specifically, the vehicle charging platform 21 receives a charging request sent by the user terminal 11. The charging request includes charging information obtained by the user through scanning the charging identifier on the vehicle charging device 13 using the user terminal 11.

[0064] For example, the charging identifier on the vehicle charging device 13 can be a QR code. The charging information can be the pixel information of the QR code. The user terminal 11 scans the QR code on the vehicle charging device 13 to obtain the QR code pixel information.

[0065] S302, Identify the encoding format of charging information.

[0066] Specifically, the vehicle charging platform 21 identifies the encoding format of the charging information.

[0067] For example, after obtaining the QR code pixel information sent by the user terminal 11 in step S301, the vehicle charging platform 21 performs conversion processing on the QR code pixel information, converting it into binary information. The conversion processing includes, but is not limited to, grayscale processing, noise reduction processing, and binarization of the QR code pixel information. Different manufacturers use different encoding methods, resulting in different encoding formats for the binary information. The vehicle charging platform 21 can identify the encoding format of this binary information to determine the manufacturer's identification information corresponding to the encoding format.

[0068] For example, binary information includes information structures such as encoding mode, number of characters, data area, end character, and padding code, as shown in Table 1. Table 1 shows the encoding format of binary information corresponding to the QR code of a certain vehicle charging device.

[0069] Table 1. Composition of Binary Information Structure

[0070]

[0071] The data area may or may not have a prefix. Typically, if a manufacturer needs to include identifying information such as its website address or server IP address on the QR code, it will place that information in the prefix section of the data area.

[0072] S303. Based on the encoding format of the charging information, determine the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging equipment belongs.

[0073] Specifically, the vehicle charging platform 21 determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging equipment 13 belongs based on the encoding format of the charging information.

[0074] For example, the vehicle charging platform 21 determines whether the charging information contains the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs, based on the encoding format of the charging information. For instance, the vehicle charging platform 21 determines whether the data area of ​​the binary information corresponding to the charging information has a prefix, based on the encoding format of the charging information. If the data area of ​​the binary information has a prefix, the vehicle charging platform 21 determines that the charging information contains the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs; if the data area of ​​the binary information does not have a prefix, the vehicle charging platform 21 determines that the charging information does not contain the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs.

[0075] If the vehicle charging platform 21 determines that the charging information contains the manufacturer's identification information, it executes step I; if the vehicle charging platform 21 determines that the charging information does not contain the manufacturer's identification information, it executes step II.

[0076] I. If the vehicle charging platform 21 determines that the charging information contains the manufacturer's identification information, then the manufacturer's identification information contained in the charging information is determined to be the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging equipment 13 belongs.

[0077] II. If the vehicle charging platform 21 determines that the charging information does not contain the manufacturer's identification information, it determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging equipment 13 belongs based on the format characteristics of the encoding format of the charging information.

[0078] For example, the format features include at least one of the following: encoding length, encoding mode, and encoding version. The encoding length is the encoding length of the data area in the binary information. Different manufacturers carry different amounts of information in their respective QR codes, and therefore the encoding length of the corresponding data area is also different. The vehicle charging platform 21 determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs based on the format features of the encoding format of the charging information. For example, the vehicle charging platform 21 determines the manufacturer identification information corresponding to the format features as the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs, based on the format features of the encoding format of the charging information.

[0079] For example, the vehicle charging platform 21 can determine the manufacturer's identification information corresponding to the encoding length of the charging information's encoding format as the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs. Alternatively, the vehicle charging platform 21 can determine the manufacturer's identification information corresponding to both the encoding length and encoding mode of the charging information's encoding format as the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs. Furthermore, the vehicle charging platform 21 can determine the manufacturer's identification information corresponding to the encoding length, encoding mode, and encoding version of the charging information's encoding format as the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs.

[0080] Optionally, the vehicle charging platform 21 may first determine the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs based on the encoding length of the encoding format of the charging information. If the vehicle charging platform 21 cannot determine the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs based solely on the encoding length, it may then determine the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs based on the encoding length and encoding mode, or based on the encoding length, encoding mode, and encoding version.

[0081] Optionally, the format features may also include at least one of the following: encoding length, encoding mode, encoding version, and other features of the data area besides the encoding length feature.

[0082] Furthermore, the vehicle charging platform 21 determines the identifier of the manufacturer based on the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging equipment 13 belongs, and the pre-stored correspondence between the manufacturer's identification information and the manufacturer's server identifier. The identifier of the manufacturer's server may be, for example, the manufacturer's server's IP address.

[0083] Optionally, the correspondence between the encoding length, encoding mode, and encoding version and the manufacturer's identification information, and the correspondence between the manufacturer's identification information and the manufacturer's server identification information, can be pre-stored in the vehicle charging platform 21, or the vehicle charging platform 21 can obtain them from other devices.

[0084] S304. Send a charging request to the manufacturer's server corresponding to the manufacturer's identification information, so that the manufacturer's server can control the vehicle's charging equipment to start the charging operation based on the charging information.

[0085] Specifically, the vehicle charging platform 21 sends a charging request to the manufacturer server 12 corresponding to the manufacturer's identification information, so that the manufacturer server 12 controls the vehicle charging equipment 13 to start the charging operation based on the charging information. This enables the vehicle charging equipment 13 to charge the user's vehicle.

[0086] For example, after the vehicle charging platform 21 determines the identifier of the manufacturer server in step S303, such as determining the IP address of the manufacturer server, it sends a charging request to the manufacturer server 12 according to the determined IP address of the manufacturer server, so that the manufacturer server 12 controls the vehicle charging equipment 13 to start the charging operation according to the charging information.

[0087] Optionally, after the vehicle charging platform 21 determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs according to the encoding format of the charging information in step S303, the vehicle charging method of this application further includes: the vehicle charging platform 21 decodes the charging information based on the manufacturer's identification information using the manufacturer's decoding method to obtain the charging pile identification and / or charging gun identification of the vehicle charging device 13; the vehicle charging platform 21 sends a charging instruction containing the charging pile identification and / or charging gun identification to the manufacturer server 12 corresponding to the manufacturer's identification information, so that the manufacturer server 12 controls the charging pile and / or charging gun to start the charging operation according to the charging instruction.

[0088] For example, after the vehicle charging platform 21 determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device 13 belongs according to the encoding format of the charging information in step S303, the vehicle charging platform 21 decodes the binary information obtained in step S302 based on the manufacturer's identification information and uses the manufacturer's decoding method to obtain the charging pile identification and / or charging gun identification of the vehicle charging device 13; the vehicle charging platform 21 sends a charging command containing the charging pile identification and / or charging gun identification to the manufacturer server 12 corresponding to the manufacturer's identification information, so that the manufacturer server 12 controls the charging pile and / or charging gun to start the charging operation according to the charging command.

[0089] If at least two charging guns are deployed on a charging pile, the vehicle charging platform 21 sends a charging instruction containing the charging gun identifier to the manufacturer's server corresponding to the manufacturer's identification information, so that the manufacturer's server 12 can control the charging gun to start the charging operation according to the charging instruction. At the same time, it is also convenient for the manufacturer's server 12 to calculate and collect the charging fee for the user using the charging gun corresponding to the charging gun identifier.

[0090] Optionally, after the vehicle charging platform 21 sends a charging request to the manufacturer server 12 corresponding to the manufacturer's identification information, so that the manufacturer server controls the vehicle charging equipment 13 to start the charging operation according to the charging information, the method of this application further includes: the vehicle charging platform 21 obtaining a charging bill containing charging information sent by the manufacturer server 12; and the vehicle charging platform 21 deducting fees from the account corresponding to the user terminal 11 in the vehicle charging platform 21 based on the charging bill.

[0091] In existing vehicle charging methods, vehicle users need to download different manufacturers' applications, open recharge accounts in each application, and recharge before they can use different manufacturers' charging stations. Having multiple recharge accounts makes it inconvenient for users to manage their account balances and reduces charging convenience. In the vehicle charging method of this application, users only need to open an account and recharge on the vehicle charging platform 21 to use different manufacturers' vehicle charging equipment 13 for charging and payment, without needing to open separate recharge accounts for different manufacturers. This improves the convenience of user account balance management and vehicle charging.

[0092] Optionally, before the vehicle charging platform 21 obtains the charging request sent by the user terminal 11, the method of this application further includes the following steps (1)-(3):

[0093] (1) The vehicle charging platform 21 obtains the first site information of each site where the vehicle charging equipment 13 is deployed, as well as the first charging pile information and / or first charging gun information of the vehicle charging equipment 13 deployed in each site, sent by the manufacturer's server 12.

[0094] (2) The vehicle charging platform 21 uses a preset hash function to calculate and process the first site information and the first charging pile information and / or the first charging gun information associated with the first site information, and updates the adaptation data set based on the processing results to obtain the updated adaptation data set. The adaptation data set is an information set composed of site information and corresponding charging pile information and / or charging gun information.

[0095] For example, the site information includes site coordinates. The vehicle charging platform 21 performs calculations on the first site information and the first charging pile information and / or the first charging gun information associated with the first site information using a preset hash function according to steps (2.1)-(2.3), and updates the adaptation data set based on the processing results to obtain an updated adaptation data set:

[0096] (2.1) The vehicle charging platform 21 uses a preset hash function to calculate the first station coordinates and the first charging pile information and / or the first charging gun information associated with the first station coordinates in the first station information, and obtains the first characteristic value of the first station coordinates.

[0097] (2.2) The vehicle charging platform 21 compares the first feature value and the second feature value of the first station coordinates to obtain a comparison result in which the first feature value and the second feature value of the first station coordinates are the same, or the first feature value and the second feature value of the first station coordinates are different. The second feature value of the first station coordinates is calculated using a preset hash function on the first station coordinates and the second charging pile information and / or second charging gun information associated with the first station coordinates in the adaptation data set.

[0098] (2.3) Based on the comparison result that the first feature value and the second feature value of the first station coordinates are different, the vehicle charging platform 21 updates the adaptation data set using the station information corresponding to the first station coordinates and the first charging pile information and / or the first charging gun information associated with the first station coordinates, to obtain an updated adaptation data set. For example, the station information also includes the station name and / or station code. Based on the comparison result that the first feature value and the second feature value of the first station coordinates are different, the vehicle charging platform 21 replaces the first station information corresponding to the first station coordinates with the preset station information corresponding to the first station coordinates, to obtain the second station information corresponding to the first station coordinates. The vehicle charging platform 21 updates the adaptation data set using the second station information corresponding to the first station coordinates and the first charging pile information and / or the first charging gun information associated with the first station coordinates, to obtain an updated adaptation data set.

[0099] (3) The vehicle charging platform 21 updates the charging map containing the station information and the charging pile and / or charging gun information associated with the station information based on the updated adaptation data set, and obtains the updated charging map.

[0100] The vehicle charging platform 21 can periodically (e.g., daily) acquire information on the first charging station and the first charging pile and / or first charging gun of each charging station deployed by different manufacturers. It then updates the adaptation data set using the acquired first charging station information and its associated first charging pile and / or first charging gun information. Based on the updated adaptation data set, it updates the charging map containing station information and charging pile and / or charging gun information, resulting in an updated charging map. This updated charging map can include the quantity and location information of vehicle charging equipment from different manufacturers. Compared to a charging map developed by a single manufacturer, this updated charging map provides more comprehensive information, further improving the user experience for new energy charging vehicles.

[0101] The vehicle charging method provided in this application identifies the encoding format of the charging information of the vehicle charging device in the charging request sent by the user terminal. Based on the identified encoding format, it determines the identification information of the manufacturer to which the vehicle charging device belongs, and sends a charging request to the manufacturer's server corresponding to the manufacturer's identification information. The manufacturer's server then controls the vehicle charging device to start the charging operation based on the charging information in the charging request, enabling the vehicle charging device to charge the user's vehicle. After charging, the user's terminal account is charged based on the charging bill sent by the manufacturer's server.
