[0074] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0075] Embodiment 1

[0076] Reference Figure 1 , shows a flow chart of the steps of a vehicle charging method provided by an embodiment of the present application, and the vehicle charging method can be applied to a vehicle terminal, such as Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle charging method may include the following steps:

[0077] Step 101: After initiating a charging request for a target vehicle to a mobile charging device, determining whether the target vehicle has stopped.

[0078] The embodiments of the present application can be applied to a scenario where a target vehicle detects a vehicle parking environment and generates entry direction information of a mobile charging device entering the bottom of the vehicle in combination with the vehicle parking environment.

[0079] When the user is driving the target vehicle, if the target vehicle is low on battery, a charging request can be initiated to the mobile charging device through the vehicle-mounted terminal. Specifically, a charging request can be initiated to the server through the vehicle-mounted terminal, and the server forwards the charging request to the mobile charging device. A charging request can also be directly initiated to the mobile charging device by the vehicle-mounted terminal, or a charging request can be initiated to the transport vehicle corresponding to the mobile charging device by the vehicle-mounted terminal, and the transport vehicle forwards the charging request to the mobile charging device, etc.

[0080] The charging request may include the charging position corresponding to the target vehicle. After the mobile charging device receives the charging request for the target vehicle, the charging request may be parsed to obtain the charging position included in the charging request, so that the mobile charging device can go to the location of the target vehicle according to the charging position to provide power to the target vehicle.

[0081] After initiating a charging request for the target vehicle to the mobile charging device, the vehicle-mounted terminal can determine whether the target vehicle has stopped.

[0082] If the target vehicle has not stopped, a parking reminder message may be output to prompt the driver to park the target vehicle in a safe location and wait for the mobile charging device to charge the target vehicle.

[0083] If the target vehicle has stopped, step 102 is executed.

[0084] Step 102: Acquire parking environment information of the target vehicle.

[0085] The parking environment information can be used to indicate the environment information of the bottom of the target vehicle when the mobile charging device enters. In this example, the parking environment information can include: the flatness of the ground directly under the target vehicle and the distance between the bottom of the target vehicle at different directions and the ground.

[0086] After determining that the target vehicle has stopped, the parking environment information of the target vehicle may be detected, and the detection process may be described in detail in conjunction with the following specific implementation method.

[0087] In a specific implementation of the present application, the above step 102 may include:

[0088] Sub-step A1: Activate a detection sensor pre-installed in the target vehicle.

[0089] In this embodiment, after determining that the target vehicle has stopped, a detection sensor pre-installed in the target vehicle may be activated, and the detection sensor may be used to detect the parking environment of the target vehicle.

[0090] In a specific implementation, the startup of the detection sensor can be controlled by the vehicle-mounted terminal, or a prompt message for starting the detection sensor can be output by the vehicle-mounted terminal to prompt the driver to start the detection sensor, etc. The startup method of the detection sensor can be determined according to business needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0091] After the detection sensor pre-installed in the target vehicle is activated, sub-step A2 is executed.

[0092] Sub-step A2: Detecting parking environment information of the target vehicle based on the detection sensor.

[0093] After starting the detection sensor pre-installed in the target vehicle, the parking environment information of the target vehicle can be detected based on the detection sensor. Specifically, the detection sensor can detect the flatness of the ground directly under the target vehicle and the distance between the bottom of the target vehicle at different directions and the ground.

[0094] After the parking environment information of the target vehicle is detected based on the detection sensor, sub-step A3 is performed.

[0095] Sub-step A3: Acquire the parking environment information detected by the detection sensor.

[0096] After the parking environment information of the target vehicle is detected based on the detection sensor, the detection sensor may send the detected parking environment information to the vehicle-mounted terminal, and the vehicle-mounted terminal may then acquire the parking environment information of the target vehicle.

[0097] The embodiment of the present application detects the parking environment through the detection sensor of the target vehicle, and there is no need for the mobile charging device to perform detection after reaching the location of the target vehicle, thereby reducing the time it takes for the mobile charging device to reach the vicinity of the vehicle and provide charging.

[0098] Of course, in actual applications, the parking environment information of the target vehicle can also be manually checked, and the checked parking environment information can be manually notified to the vehicle terminal, such as by inputting the checked parking environment information on the vehicle screen.

[0099] After the parking environment information of the target vehicle is acquired, step 103 is executed.

[0100] Step 103: Determine whether the parking environment information meets the charging condition.

[0101] After obtaining the parking environment information of the target vehicle, it can be determined whether the parking environment information of the target vehicle meets the charging conditions. The specific judgment process can be: 1. Determine whether the ground directly below the target vehicle is flat, that is, whether the flatness of the ground meets the charging requirements; 2. Determine whether the distance between the bottom of the target vehicle in different directions and the ground meets the charging requirements, that is, whether the distance meets the requirements for the mobile charging device to enter the bottom of the vehicle. When these two conditions are met at the same time, it can be determined that the parking environment information of the target vehicle meets the charging conditions. When at least one of these two conditions is not met, it can be determined that the parking environment information of the target vehicle does not meet the charging conditions.

[0102] When it is determined that the parking environment information of the target vehicle does not meet the charging conditions, the driver may adjust the parking position of the target vehicle. Specifically, this may be described in detail below in combination with the following specific implementation methods.

[0103] In another specific implementation of the present application, after the above step 103, the following may also be included:

[0104] Step B1: When the parking environment information does not satisfy the charging condition, generating charging position adjustment information of the target vehicle.

[0105] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the parking environment information of the target vehicle does not meet the charging condition, charging position adjustment information of the target vehicle may be generated, and the charging position adjustment information may be used to instruct the user to adjust the parking position of the target vehicle.

[0106] In a specific implementation, the charging position adjustment information may be voice information, text information, warning light information, etc. Specifically, the specific form of the charging position adjustment information may be determined according to business requirements, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0107] After the charging position adjustment information of the target vehicle is generated, step B2 is performed.

[0108] Step B2: outputting the charging position adjustment information to instruct the user to adjust the parking position of the target vehicle.

[0109] After the charging position adjustment information of the target vehicle is generated, the charging position adjustment information may be output to instruct the user to adjust the parking position of the target vehicle.

[0110] The embodiment of the present application outputs charging position adjustment information to adjust the parking position of the target vehicle when the parking environment information of the target vehicle does not meet the charging conditions, until the parking position of the target vehicle meets the charging conditions. This avoids the problem of delayed charging time caused by the mobile charging device adjusting the parking position after reaching the location of the target vehicle, and can further shorten the time from when the mobile charging device arrives near the vehicle to provide charging.

[0111] After determining that the parking environment information of the target vehicle meets the charging condition, step 104 is executed.

[0112] Step 104: When the parking environment information satisfies the charging condition, the entry direction information of the mobile charging device entering the bottom of the target vehicle is determined according to the parking environment information.

[0113] The entry direction information refers to the direction information of the mobile charging device entering the bottom of the target vehicle. In a specific implementation, the direction of the mobile charging device entering the bottom of the target vehicle can include four directions, namely the front, rear, right and left of the target vehicle. In this example, the distance between the bottom of the target vehicle and the ground contained in the parking environment information can be used to select the direction with the largest distance from the four directions as the entry direction of the mobile charging device entering the bottom of the target vehicle.

[0114] When it is determined that the parking environment information of the target vehicle meets the charging conditions, the entry direction information of the mobile charging device entering the bottom of the target vehicle can be determined according to the parking environment information.

[0115] After determining the driving direction information of the mobile charging device driving into the bottom of the target vehicle according to the parking environment information of the target vehicle, step 105 is executed.

[0116] Step 105: The entry direction information is sent to the mobile charging device, and after the mobile charging device reaches the location of the target vehicle, it drives into the bottom of the target vehicle according to the entry direction information to provide power to the target vehicle.

[0117] After determining the entry direction information of the mobile charging device entering the bottom of the target vehicle based on the parking environment information of the target vehicle, the entry direction information can be sent to the mobile charging device. After the mobile charging device reaches the location of the target vehicle, it can drive into the bottom of the target vehicle according to the entry direction information to provide power to the target vehicle.

[0118] The above-mentioned scheme provided in the embodiment of the present application overcomes the defects existing in the detection of parking environment by mobile charging equipment. There is no need to set up detection sensors on the mobile charging equipment, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the mobile charging equipment. In addition, since the parking environment detection process after the mobile charging equipment reaches the location of the target vehicle is reduced, the time taken by the mobile charging equipment from arriving near the vehicle to providing charging can be shortened, thereby improving the charging efficiency of the vehicle.

[0119] In this example, while the mobile charging device is providing power to the target vehicle, the parking environment information of the target vehicle can be detected in real time by the detection sensor provided on the target vehicle, so as to guide the mobile charging device to drive out from the bottom of the target vehicle after the mobile charging device finishes charging. Specifically, it can be described in detail in combination with the following specific implementation method.

[0120] In another specific implementation of the present application, after the above step 105, the method may further include the following steps:

[0121] Step C1: While the mobile charging device is charging the target vehicle, detecting vehicle environment information of the target vehicle.

[0122] In this embodiment, the vehicle environment information refers to the parking environment information of the target vehicle detected during the process of the mobile charging device charging the target vehicle.

[0123] When the mobile charging device is charging the target vehicle, the vehicle environment information of the target vehicle may be detected. Specifically, the vehicle environment information of the target vehicle may be detected by a detection sensor on the target vehicle, or the vehicle environment information of the target vehicle may be detected manually.

[0124] After the vehicle environment information of the target vehicle is detected and obtained, step C2 is executed.

[0125] Step C2: Determine the exit direction information of the mobile charging device from the bottom of the target vehicle according to the vehicle environment information.

[0126] After the vehicle environment information of the target vehicle is detected, the exit direction information of the mobile charging device leaving the bottom of the target vehicle can be determined according to the vehicle environment information. The exit direction information can be used to indicate the direction of the mobile charging device leaving the bottom of the target vehicle.

[0127] After determining the exit direction information of the mobile charging device leaving the bottom of the target vehicle according to the vehicle environment information, step C3 is executed.

[0128] Step C3: After the mobile charging device finishes charging, the exit direction information is sent to the mobile charging device, and the mobile charging device drives away from the bottom of the target vehicle according to the exit direction information.

[0129] After the mobile charging device finishes charging, the exit position information can be sent to the mobile charging device so that the mobile charging device can drive away from the bottom of the target vehicle according to the exit position information. Figure 3 As shown, when using a charging flatbed truck to charge the vehicle to be charged, the bottom of the vehicle to be charged can be entered from the left side of the vehicle to be charged. When charging is completed, it is detected that the left side is blocked. At this time, the charging flatbed truck can be guided to leave from the right side.

[0130] In the process of charging by the mobile charging device, the embodiment of the present application can detect vehicle environmental information in real time, and guide the mobile charging device to drive away after the mobile charging device finishes charging, thereby eliminating the need for the mobile charging device to perform detection, and can reduce the time it takes for the mobile charging device to drive away from the bottom of the vehicle.

[0131] The vehicle charging method provided in the embodiment of the present application detects the parking environment information of the target vehicle after initiating a charging request for the target vehicle, and when the parking environment information meets the charging conditions, determines the entry direction information of the mobile charging device into the bottom of the target vehicle according to the parking environment information, and sends it to the mobile charging device. Therefore, after the mobile charging device arrives at the location of the target vehicle, there is no need to detect the parking environment again, which can shorten the time from the mobile charging device arriving near the vehicle to providing charging, and can reduce the requirements for the mobile charging device to be equipped with sensors, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the mobile charging device.

[0132] Embodiment 2

[0133] Reference Figure 2 , shows a flow chart of steps of another vehicle charging method provided by an embodiment of the present application, which can be applied to mobile charging devices, such as Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle charging method may include the following steps:

[0134] Step 201: Obtain a charging request for a target vehicle sent by a vehicle-mounted terminal; the charging request includes a parking position of the target vehicle.

[0135] In this embodiment, when the user is driving the target vehicle, if the target vehicle is low on power, a charging request can be initiated to the mobile charging device through the vehicle terminal, and the charging request can include the parking location of the target vehicle.

[0136] After the mobile charging device receives the charging request for the target vehicle sent by the vehicle-mounted terminal, the mobile charging device can parse the charging request to obtain the parking location information of the target vehicle contained in the charging request, and then perform path planning to go to the parking location of the target vehicle according to the planned path to charge the target vehicle.

[0137] After obtaining the charging request for the target vehicle sent by the vehicle-mounted terminal, step 202 is executed.

[0138] Step 202: Acquire the entry direction information of the bottom of the target vehicle sent by the vehicle-mounted terminal.

[0139] In the process of the mobile charging device heading to the parking position of the target vehicle, the parking environment information of the target vehicle can be detected by the detection sensor on the target vehicle, and the on-board terminal can determine the entry direction information of the mobile charging device entering the bottom of the target vehicle based on the parking environment information detected by the detection sensor.

[0140] After the vehicle-mounted terminal determines the entry position information of the mobile charging device entering the bottom of the target vehicle, the vehicle-mounted terminal may send the determined entry position information to the mobile charging device.

[0141] After the mobile charging device obtains the entry direction information of the bottom of the target vehicle sent by the vehicle-mounted terminal, step 203 is executed.

[0142] Step 203: After the mobile charging device reaches the parking position, it drives into the bottom of the target vehicle according to the driving-in orientation information to provide power to the target vehicle.

[0143] After the mobile charging device reaches the parking position of the target vehicle, the mobile charging device can drive into the bottom of the target vehicle according to the driving-in orientation information to provide electrical energy to the target vehicle.

[0144] In an embodiment of the present application, after the mobile charging device reaches the location of the target vehicle, it can directly drive into the bottom of the target vehicle according to the driving-in direction information to provide power to the target vehicle without the need to detect the parking environment. This can shorten the time it takes for the mobile charging device to reach the vicinity of the vehicle and provide charging, and can reduce the requirements for the mobile charging device to be equipped with sensors.

[0145] In the process of the mobile charging device providing power to the target vehicle, the vehicle environment information of the target vehicle can also be detected in real time to provide guidance for the mobile charging device to drive away from the bottom of the target vehicle after the mobile charging device finishes charging. Specifically, it can be described in detail in combination with the following specific implementation method.

[0146] In a specific implementation of the present application, after the above step 203, the following may also be included:

[0147] Step D1: After charging is completed, the exit direction information of the bottom of the target vehicle sent by the vehicle-mounted terminal is obtained.

[0148] In this embodiment, when the mobile charging device is charging the target vehicle, the vehicle environment information of the target vehicle can be detected. Specifically, the vehicle environment information of the target vehicle can be detected by a detection sensor on the target vehicle, or the vehicle environment information of the target vehicle can be detected manually. Then, the vehicle terminal determines the exit direction information of the mobile charging device from the bottom of the target vehicle based on the vehicle environment information, and the exit direction information can be used to indicate the direction of the mobile charging device from the bottom of the target vehicle.

[0149] After the mobile charging device finishes charging, the vehicle-mounted terminal may send the exit direction information to the mobile charging device.

[0150] After the mobile charging device obtains the exit direction information of the bottom of the target vehicle sent by the vehicle-mounted terminal, step D2 is executed.

[0151] Step D2: driving away from the bottom of the target vehicle according to the exit direction information.

[0152] After the mobile charging device obtains the exit direction information of leaving the bottom of the target vehicle sent by the vehicle-mounted terminal, the mobile charging device can leave the bottom of the target vehicle according to the exit direction information. Figure 3 As shown, when using a charging flatbed truck to charge the vehicle to be charged, the bottom of the vehicle to be charged can be entered from the left side of the vehicle to be charged. When charging is completed, it is detected that the left side is blocked. At this time, the charging flatbed truck can be guided to leave from the right side.

[0153] In the process of charging by the mobile charging device, the embodiment of the present application can detect vehicle environmental information in real time, and guide the mobile charging device to drive away after the mobile charging device finishes charging, thereby eliminating the need for the mobile charging device to perform detection, and can reduce the time it takes for the mobile charging device to drive away from the bottom of the vehicle.

[0154] The vehicle charging method provided in the embodiment of the present application can directly drive into the bottom of the target vehicle according to the driving-in direction information and provide power to the target vehicle after the mobile charging device reaches the location of the target vehicle by acquiring the driving-in direction information of the bottom of the target vehicle sent by the vehicle-mounted terminal. There is no need to detect the parking environment, which can shorten the time from when the mobile charging device arrives near the vehicle to provide charging, reduce the requirements for the mobile charging device to be equipped with sensors, and reduce the manufacturing cost of the mobile charging device.
