Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of charging piles, and in particular to a method for preventing a charging pile from being stolen and a charging pile. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the increasing number of electric vehicles, the country advocates private electric vehicles to be charged at private charging piles to meet the energy supplement needs of private electric vehicles. Due to the specificity of private charging piles, traditional private charging piles need to be equipped with charging cards to trigger the output power of private charging piles to charge electric vehicles, but users need to perform the card swiping action every time they charge, which is cumbersome to operate.

[0003] In order to simplify the charging process and improve the user experience, it has become a trend for private charging piles to communicate with electric vehicles to realize the plug-and-charge charging mode. In this charging mode, after the private charging pile is connected in communication with the electric vehicle, the user only needs to bind the electric vehicle with the private charging pile at the initial charging, complete the charging permission authentication of the electric vehicle, and then the electric vehicle charging interface will send a start charging instruction to the private charging pile when it is inserted again. After the private charging pile receives the start charging instruction sent by the electric vehicle bound thereto and determines that the charging gun is also in the inserted state, the charging permission of the electric vehicle will be released and the charging will be started, that is, the user can make the private charging pile start charging the electric vehicle as long as the charging gun is inserted into the charging interface of the electric vehicle.

[0004] However, if a dummy gun or a charging gun of another charging pile is inserted on the bound electric vehicle, and the charging gun of the matching private charging pile is inserted on another vehicle, the private charging pile may also receive the start charging command sent by the electric vehicle bound thereto and determine that the charging gun is also in the inserted state, thereby starting to charge another electric vehicle, resulting in the charging pile being stolen and charging, thereby causing loss to the user.

[0044] The technical solutions in the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.

[0045] In the following description, specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of embodiments of the application. However, persons having ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that embodiments of the application can be practiced without the specific details, and that the present application is not limited to the embodiments described here.

[0047] The term "and / or" as used herein is merely an associative relationship between the associated objects, which means that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B, which means that there are three cases of A alone, A and B together, and B alone. In addition, the character " / " herein generally represents an "or" relationship between the associated objects.

[0048] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "first", "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features with "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, "at least one" means one or more, and the meaning of "multiple" is two or more, unless otherwise specifically limited.

[0049] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the architecture of a charging system provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 1 The method for preventing theft of charging piles provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to a charging system 100, which includes a charging pile 120. When the electric vehicle 110 needs to be charged, it can be connected to the charging gun 121 of the charging pile 120 through its own charging interface to realize charging. The electric vehicle 110 is in communication connection with a vehicle supervision cloud platform 130, the vehicle supervision cloud platform 130 is in communication connection with a charging pile supervision cloud platform 140, the charging pile supervision cloud platform 140 is in communication connection with the charging pile 120, and the charging pile 120 is in communication connection with the electric vehicle 110.

[0050] The electric vehicle 110 and the charging pile 120 can interact information (for example, identity information of the electric vehicle 110, identity information of the charging pile 120, etc.) through a communication connection. The application does not limit the communication connection mode. For example, the communication connection can be realized through a wireless local area network (WLAN), wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi), a 5G network, a 6G network, Bluetooth, radio frequency, or near field communication (NFC), etc.

[0051] Specifically, the identity information of the electric vehicle 110 can be vehicle identification number (VIN) information, license plate information, etc., and the identity information of the charging pile 120 can be a number (for example, a unique serial number allocated by a production unit) of the charging pile 120, etc.

[0052] Here, the vehicle supervision cloud platform 130 can store the identity information of the electric vehicle 110 and the charging process of the electric vehicle 110, the charging pile supervision cloud platform 140 can store the identity information of the charging pile 120 and the charging process of the charging pile 120, and the vehicle supervision cloud platform 130 and the charging pile supervision cloud platform 140 can be in the same cloud management platform.

[0053] In the charging system 100, the user only needs to insert the charging gun 121 into the charging interface of the electric vehicle 110 to charge the electric vehicle 110, without the user performing additional operations (for example, swiping a card, etc.), so that the charging effect of plug and charge is achieved, the charging process is simplified, and the user's use experience is improved.

[0054] Specifically, after the user binds the electric vehicle 110 and the charging pile 120, the electric vehicle 110 has the charging permission of the charging pile 120, and after the electric vehicle 110 enters the preset charging range of the charging pile 120 (for example, when the electric vehicle 110 is parked in a parking space provided with the charging pile 120), the charging pile 120 can automatically verify the charging permission of the electric vehicle 110 through a communication network. After the charging permission verification is passed, after the charging gun 121 is inserted into the charging interface of the electric vehicle 110, the electric vehicle 110 can be triggered to send a start charging instruction to the charging pile 120, and the charging pile 120 will release the charging permission of the electric vehicle 110 to start charging the electric vehicle 110 after receiving the start charging instruction and determining that the charging gun 121 is in a plugged state, that is, the user can charge the electric vehicle 110 when the charging gun 121 is inserted into the charging interface (plug and charge).

[0055] However, the charging system 100 may have a stolen charging situation in the process of charging. The stolen charging problem will be further described in combination with specific examples.

[0056] Figure 2 is a scene schematic diagram of a stolen charging situation provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 2 , a first electric vehicle 210 and a second electric vehicle 230 are parked in a preset charging range of a charging pile 220, wherein the first electric vehicle 210 is an electric vehicle bound with the charging pile 220 and has the charging right of the charging pile 220, the second electric vehicle 230 is an electric vehicle not bound with the charging pile 220 and does not have the charging right of the charging pile 220, and the charging pile 220 has a charging gun 221, which can be the only charging gun of the charging pile.

[0057] Here, the electric vehicle bound with the charging pile 220 can be only one or multiple. When multiple electric vehicles are bound with the charging pile 220, the first electric vehicle 210 is any one of the multiple electric vehicles.

[0058] After the first electric vehicle 210 enters the preset charging range of the charging pile 220, the charging pile 220 can automatically verify the charging right of the first electric vehicle 210 through a communication network (verification passed). At this time, if other users insert an empty gun 240 not belonging to the charging pile 220 into the charging interface of the first electric vehicle 210 and insert the charging gun 221 of the charging pile 220 into the charging interface of the second electric vehicle 230, the first electric vehicle 210 will also send a start charging instruction to the charging pile 220, the charging gun 221 of the charging pile 220 is also in the state of being inserted and also receives the start charging instruction from the first electric vehicle 210, so that the charging pile 220 releases the charging right of the first electric vehicle 210 and starts charging. After that, the charging pile 220 actually starts charging the second electric vehicle 230, causing the charging pile 220 to be stolen and charged, thereby causing loss to the user.

[0059] Therefore, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for preventing a charging pile from being stolen and charged. After the charging pile releases the charging right of the first electric vehicle, it is determined whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state, that is, whether the charging pile is stolen and charged. When it is determined that the first electric vehicle is not in the charging state, the charging pile can be controlled to stop charging in time to prevent the charging pile from being stolen and charged by the second electric vehicle and to maintain the rights and interests of the user.

[0060] Figure 3 is a schematic flowchart of an example of the method for preventing a charging pile from being stolen and charged provided by an embodiment of the present application. The execution subject of the embodiment can be the charging pile 120 as shown in Figure 1 , or can be the charging pile 120 as shown inFigure 1 The charging pile supervision cloud platform 140 is shown. The following describes the charging pile supervision cloud platform 140 in combination with the method 300 of preventing the charging pile from being stolen charging provided by the embodiments of the present application. Figure 3 The method 300 of preventing the charging pile from being stolen charging provided by the embodiments of the present application is described below. The method 300 can include the following steps.

[0061] At step 310, after the charging pile releases the charging permission for the first electric vehicle, it is determined whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state.

[0062] Here, the first electric vehicle is in communication connection with the charging pile. In the agreed communication protocol, the charging pile and the first electric vehicle can interact with relevant messages (such as the identity information of the charging pile and the identity information of the first electric vehicle).

[0063] Specifically, after the user inserts the charging gun into the charging interface of the first electric vehicle (i.e., the charging interface of the first electric vehicle is in a plugged state), the first electric vehicle can send a start charging instruction to the charging pile. After the charging pile receives the start charging instruction from the first electric vehicle and determines that the charging gun corresponding to the start charging instruction is also in a plugged state, the charging pile releases the charging permission for the first electric vehicle and starts charging the first electric vehicle. After that, to prevent the charging pile from charging other electric vehicles (the aforementioned second electric vehicle), it is necessary to determine whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state. If the first electric vehicle is not in a charging state, it means that the charging pile may be stolen charging. If the first electric vehicle is in a charging state, it means that the charging pile is normally charging the first electric vehicle, and the charging pile is not stolen charging.

[0064] After the charging pile releases the charging permission for the first electric vehicle and starts charging, it can be immediately determined whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state, or it can be determined whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state after a preset time period.

[0065] For example, it can be determined whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state at the 10th second after the charging pile releases the charging permission for the first electric vehicle and starts charging.

[0066] The present application does not make any limitation on the way of determining whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state, as long as it can determine whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state.

[0067] Optionally, a state indication message from the first electric vehicle is received, and then it is determined whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state according to the state indication message. The state indication message can be used to indicate whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state.

[0068] For example, the state indication message can include 1 bit of 0 or 1, which directly indicates whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state through 1 bit of 0 or 1.

[0069] Optionally, after the charging pile releases the charging right of the first electric vehicle, the camera of the charging pile can be invoked to collect images within a preset distance range of the first electric vehicle, and then it is determined whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state according to the images.

[0070] For example, when the charging gun plugged into the first electric vehicle in the image belongs to the charging pile bound thereto, it can be determined that the first electric vehicle is in a charging state, and when the charging gun plugged into the first electric vehicle in the image does not belong to the charging pile bound thereto, it can be determined that the first electric vehicle is not in a charging state.

[0071] If the first electric vehicle is not in a charging state, the charging pile is controlled to stop charging to prevent the charging pile from being stolen.

[0072] If the first electric vehicle is in a charging state, the charging pile continues to charge.

[0073] Here, the execution subject of the method 300 can be the charging pile or the cloud platform of the charging pile (i.e., the charging pile supervision cloud platform 140 as shown in Figure 1 When the execution subject of the method 300 is the charging pile, the control unit inside the charging pile controls the charging pile to stop charging, and when the execution subject of the method 300 is the cloud platform of the charging pile, the cloud platform of the charging pile remotely controls the charging pile to stop charging.

[0074] For example, when the second electric vehicle is not in a charging state, the cloud platform of the charging pile sends a stop charging instruction to the charging pile, and controls the charging pile to stop charging according to the stop charging instruction.

[0075] Specifically, whether the charging pile is stolen can be determined according to whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state. For example, when the first electric vehicle is not in a charging state, it indicates that the charging pile can be charging other electric vehicles (such as the aforementioned second electric vehicle), at this time, the charging pile can be stolen, and the charging pile can be controlled to stop charging (step 320 is executed), otherwise, the charging pile can not be stolen, and the charging pile can continue to charge the first electric vehicle (step 330 is executed).

[0076] According to the method for preventing the charging pile from being stolen charge provided in the embodiments of the present application, after the charging pile releases the charging permission for the first electric vehicle, it is determined whether the first electric vehicle is in the charging state, that is, whether the charging pile is stolen charge. When the first electric vehicle is not in the charging state, it indicates that the charging pile may be stolen charge, so that the charging pile can be controlled to stop charging in time, and the interests of the user are maintained. Through the above method for preventing the charging pile from being stolen charge, when the charging pile releases the charging permission for the first electric vehicle, and the first electric vehicle is not in the charging state, the charging pile can be controlled to stop charging in time, and the charging pile is prevented from being stolen charge.

[0077] The specific implementation process of the method 300 executed by different execution subjects for preventing the charging pile from being stolen charge will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. For the same or similar concepts or processes, they can not be described again in some embodiments.

[0078] Figure 4 is another schematic flowchart of the method for preventing the charging pile from being stolen charge provided in the embodiments of the present application. Figure 4 In the illustrated embodiments, the execution subject of the method 300 is the charging pile, for example, Figure 4 As described above, when the execution subject of the method 300 is the charging pile, the interaction process between the first electric vehicle and the charging pile includes:

[0079] Step 401, the first electric vehicle sends a start charging instruction to the charging pile.

[0080] Specifically, in response to the gun insertion operation of the user (the first electric vehicle determines that the charging interface is in the insertion state), the first electric vehicle generates a start charging instruction and sends the start charging instruction to the charging pile. Wherein, the first electric vehicle can determine whether the charging interface is in the insertion state through the detection device configured by itself.

[0081] Step 402, the charging pile determines whether the charging gun is in the insertion state.

[0082] Specifically, the charging pile can also determine whether the charging gun corresponding to it is in the insertion state through the detection device (such as a light sensor).

[0083] Step 403, after receiving the start charging instruction from the first electric vehicle and determining that the charging gun is in the insertion state, the charging pile releases the charging permission for the first electric vehicle.

[0084] Specifically, after receiving the start charging instruction from the first electric vehicle and determining that the charging gun is in the insertion state, the charging pile can immediately release the charging permission for the first electric vehicle to start charging the electric vehicle.

[0085] Step 404, the charging pile sends a state request message to the first electric vehicle.

[0086] Specifically, the status request message is sent to the first electric vehicle within a preset time period (e.g., 3s or 5s) after the charging pile releases the charging right to the first electric vehicle and starts charging.

[0087] For example, the status request message is sent to the first electric vehicle at the 2nd second after the charging pile releases the charging right to the first electric vehicle and starts charging.

[0088] Step 405, after receiving the status request message from the charging pile, the first electric vehicle sends a status indication message to the charging pile.

[0089] Specifically, the status indication message is sent to the charging pile within a preset time period (e.g., 5s or 8s) after the first electric vehicle receives the status request message from the charging pile. The status indication message can be used to indicate whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state.

[0090] Here, the first electric vehicle can send the status indication message to the charging pile in response to the status request message, or can directly send the status indication message after a preset time period (e.g., 6s or 8s) after sending the start charging instruction to the charging pile (i.e., after performing step 401).

[0091] Step 406, after receiving the status indication message from the first electric vehicle, the charging pile determines whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state according to the status indication message.

[0092] The status indication message can include 1 bit of 0 or 1, which directly indicates whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state.

[0093] For example, when the status indication message parsed by the charging pile includes 1 bit of 0, it indicates that the first electric vehicle is not in a charging state, and the charging pile can be stolen. At this time, step 407 can be performed to control the charging pile to stop charging to prevent the charging pile from being stolen. When the status indication message parsed by the charging pile includes 1 bit of 1, it indicates that the first electric vehicle is in a charging state, and the charging pile can not be stolen at this time. The charging pile can continue to charge the first electric vehicle.

[0094] In other embodiments, the status indication information can include a charging state parameter of the first electric vehicle at the current time, and whether the first electric vehicle is in a charging state is determined according to whether the charging state parameter is zero. The charging state parameter can be any one of a charging current, a charging voltage, and a charging power.

[0095] Exemplarily, when the charging parameter included in the state indication message parsed by the charging pile is 15A (non-zero), it indicates that the first electric vehicle is in the charging state, and at this time, the charging pile continues to charge the first electric vehicle. When the charging parameter included in the state indication message parsed by the charging pile is 0A (zero), it indicates that the first electric vehicle is not in the charging state, and the charging pile may be stolen, at this time, step 407 can be performed to control the charging pile to stop charging, so as to prevent the charging pile from being stolen.

[0096] Further, in the embodiment of the present application, whether the first electric vehicle is abnormal (for example, whether it is faulty, etc.) can also be determined by the charging state parameter parsed. For example, when the absolute value of the difference between the charging state parameter of the first electric vehicle at the current time and the charging state parameter of the charging pile at the current time is greater than a preset threshold, the first electric vehicle is abnormal, at this time, the charging pile can also be controlled to stop charging, and when the absolute value of the difference between the charging state parameter of the first electric vehicle at the current time and the charging state parameter of the charging pile at the current time is less than or equal to the preset threshold, the first electric vehicle is normal, and the charging pile continues to charge the first electric vehicle.

[0097] Step 407, if the first electric vehicle is not in the charging state, the charging pile is controlled to stop charging, so as to prevent the charging pile from being stolen.

[0098] Specifically, when the charging pile determines that the first electric vehicle is not in the charging state according to the state indication message, the charging is automatically stopped.

[0099] Further, if the first electric vehicle is not in the charging state, the charging pile can send a stolen charging reminder message to the mobile terminal of the user to whom the first electric vehicle belongs, the stolen charging reminder message is used to remind the user that the charging pile is stolen, so as to facilitate the user to perform subsequent operations. For example, after receiving the stolen charging reminder message, the user can start the camera of the first electric vehicle and / or the charging pile, collect the image of the second electric vehicle, obtain the identity information of the second electric vehicle and alarm.

[0100] Step 408, the first electric vehicle sends a charging end instruction to the charging pile.

[0101] Specifically, in response to user operation or according to system default configuration, the first electric vehicle sends a charging end instruction to the charging pile.

[0102] Here, the way of triggering the first electric vehicle to send a charging end instruction to the charging pile is not limited.

[0103] For example, after sending a start charging instruction to the charging pile, the first electric vehicle detects the charging capacity of the first electric vehicle in a timely manner, and sends a charging end instruction to the charging pile when the charging capacity reaches a preset threshold.

[0104] For another example, in response to the user's pulling operation, a charging end instruction is sent to the charging pile.

[0105] At step 409, the charging pile stops charging according to the charging end instruction.

[0106] Specifically, if the first electric vehicle is in the charging state, the charging pile continues to charge the first electric vehicle until the charging pile receives a charging end instruction from the first electric vehicle, and stops charging according to the charging end instruction.

[0107] Figure 5 is another example of the method for preventing the charging pile from being stolen and charged provided by the embodiments of the present application. Figure 5 In the illustrated embodiment, the execution subject of the method 300 is the cloud platform of the charging pile (i.e., as shown in Figure 1 the charging pile supervision cloud platform), such as Figure 5 As described above, when the execution subject of the method 300 is the cloud platform of the charging pile, the interaction process among the first electric vehicle, the cloud platform of the charging pile, and the charging pile includes:

[0108] At step 501, the first electric vehicle sends a start charging instruction to the charging pile through the cloud platform of the charging pile.

[0109] Specifically, after receiving the start charging instruction from the first electric vehicle, the cloud platform of the charging pile sends the start charging instruction to the charging pile.

[0110] At step 502, the charging pile determines whether the charging gun is in the plugged state.

[0111] Specifically, step 502 can be performed before step 501.

[0112] At step 503, after receiving the start charging instruction and determining that the charging gun is in the plugged state, the charging pile releases the charging permission for the first electric vehicle.

[0113] At step 504, the cloud platform of the charging pile sends a state request message to the first electric vehicle.

[0114] Specifically, the cloud platform of the charging pile sends the state request message to the first electric vehicle within a preset time (e.g., 8s) after sending the start charging instruction to the charging pile.

[0115] At step 505, after receiving the state request message from the cloud platform of the charging pile, the first electric vehicle sends a state indication message to the cloud platform of the charging pile.

[0116] Specifically, the first electric vehicle sends the state indication message to the cloud platform of the charging pile within a preset time (e.g., 5s) after receiving the state request message from the cloud platform of the charging pile.

[0117] At step 506, the cloud platform of the charging pile determines whether the first electric vehicle is in the charging state according to the state indication message.

[0118] Specifically, if the first electric vehicle is not in the charging state, step 507 is performed, and if the first electric vehicle is in the charging state, the charging continues.

[0119] The implementation of determining whether the first electric vehicle is in the charging state according to the state indication message is the same as that of step 406, and will not be repeated here.

[0120] At step 507, the cloud platform of the charging pile sends a stop charging instruction to the charging pile.

[0121] Specifically, when the first electric vehicle is not in the charging state, the stop charging instruction is sent to the charging pile, and the stop charging instruction is used to make the charging pile stop charging.

[0122] At step 508, the charging pile stops charging according to the stop charging instruction.

[0123] Specifically, after the charging pile receives the stop charging instruction from the cloud platform of the charging pile, the charging is immediately stopped.
