Detailed Implementation

[0081] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0082] It should be noted that the user information (including but not limited to user device information, user personal information, etc.) and data (including but not limited to data used for analysis, data stored, data displayed, etc.) involved in this application are all information and data authorized by the user or fully authorized by all parties. Furthermore, the collection, use and processing of the relevant data must comply with the relevant laws, regulations and standards of the relevant countries and regions, and corresponding operation portals are provided for users to choose to authorize or refuse.

[0083] This vehicle charging method is applied to electric vehicle charging technology. When a vehicle is parked in a parking lot, it sends a charging request to the server. A mobile energy storage device located near the parking lot receives the request and moves to the vicinity of the vehicle. Upon arrival, the mobile energy storage device scans the area around the vehicle to determine if there is sufficient space to park it before charging the vehicle. The mobile energy storage device can be a trolley or another charging vehicle.

[0084] The inventive concept of this application is as follows: A mobile energy storage device collects obstacle information on the original area where the vehicle to be charged is located. Based on the obstacle information, a first path is determined. The device then travels along the first path to the original location of the vehicle to be charged for charging. If obstacles prevent the device from reaching the original location, obstacle information in a first transfer area is collected. Based on the obstacle information, a second path is determined. The device then travels along the second path to the first transfer area of ​​the vehicle to be charged for charging. If obstacles prevent the device from reaching the first transfer area, the device obtains the historical charging area of ​​the mobile energy storage device. Based on the historical charging area, obstacle information on the second transfer area is collected. Finally, by obtaining the charging path, the mobile energy storage device reaches the second transfer area and charges the vehicle to be charged.

[0086] S101, The first mobile energy storage device collects obstacle information in the original area where the vehicle is located.

[0087] More specifically, the first mobile energy storage device collects obstacle information in the original area where the vehicle to be charged is located by scanning equipment. The original area includes the original location where the vehicle to be charged was located when it issued the charging request, and the obstacle information includes the volume and location of obstacles around the vehicle to be charged that prevent the first mobile energy storage device from reaching it.

[0090] More specifically, the server determines, based on obstacle information in the original area of ​​the vehicle to be charged, that the first mobile energy storage device can charge the vehicle in the original area, generates a first path, and generates a local charging instruction based on the first path. Specifically, the server determines whether there exists a charging area larger than the area required for the first mobile energy storage device to be parked, based on obstacle information in the original area of ​​the vehicle to be charged. If there is a required area for the first mobile energy storage device to be parked, it determines whether there is a travel path between the charging area and the current location of the first mobile energy storage device. If there is a travel path between the charging area and the current location of the first mobile energy storage device, it determines that the first mobile energy storage device can charge the vehicle to be charged at the location of the original area of ​​the vehicle to be charged, and generates an optimal path based on the charging area in the original area of ​​the vehicle to be charged and the current location of the first mobile energy storage device. The first path includes the path taken by the first mobile energy storage device to the original area of ​​the vehicle to be charged, and the local charging instruction includes the instruction for the first mobile energy storage device to charge the vehicle within the original area of ​​the vehicle to be charged.

[0092] S105. The first mobile energy storage device travels to the charging location in the original area according to the first path in the local charging instruction and charges the vehicle.

[0093] More specifically, the first mobile energy storage device travels to the charging location within the original area of ​​the vehicle to be charged according to the first path in the local charging instruction, and charges the vehicle.

[0094] In the vehicle charging method provided in this application embodiment, a first mobile energy storage device collects obstacle information on the original area where the vehicle to be charged is located. After receiving the obstacle information, the server determines whether there is an area around the original area where the vehicle to be charged is located that can accommodate the first mobile energy storage device. If the required area exists, a first path is further determined for the first energy storage device to travel to the original area where the vehicle to be charged is located. The first mobile energy storage device then travels to the original area of ​​the vehicle to be charged according to the first path and charges the vehicle. By fully determining whether the area around the original area where the vehicle to be charged is located allows the first mobile energy storage device to charge normally, charging failure is prevented, and the user experience is improved.

The collection instruction includes the location information of the first transfer area; specifically, the first transfer...

[0100] The area includes a transfer area for parking vehicles waiting to be charged and a transfer area for parking the first mobile energy storage device; the inability of the first mobile energy storage device to charge the vehicles waiting to be charged includes the absence of the required area for parking the first mobile energy storage device or the absence of a first path for the first mobile energy storage device to travel to the original area where the vehicles waiting to be charged are located due to the presence of obstacles.

[0101] 5S202. The first mobile energy storage device collects information on obstacles in the first transfer area.

[0102] More specifically, the first mobile energy storage device collects obstacle information on the first transfer area through a scanning device, wherein the obstacle information includes the volume or location of obstacles present on the first transfer area.

[0103] S203. The first mobile energy storage device sends obstacle information in the first transfer area to the server. S204. The server determines the location of the first mobile energy storage device based on the obstacle information in the first transfer area.

[0104] The device can generate a first transfer charging command when charging the vehicle in the first transfer area.

[0105] More specifically, when the server determines that the first mobile energy storage device can charge the vehicle in the first transfer area based on obstacle information in the first transfer area, it generates a first transfer charging command, wherein...

[0106] The first transfer charging instruction includes a second path.

[0107] 5. For example: When there is sufficient area within the first transfer area to accommodate the first mobile energy storage device and the vehicle to be charged, the server determines whether there is an unobstructed first transfer path for the vehicle to be charged based on the area of ​​the vehicle to be charged. If there is an unobstructed first transfer path for the vehicle to be charged, the server sends a first transfer reminder instruction to the vehicle to be charged.

[0108] The wake-up command includes a first transfer path for the vehicle to be charged. Based on the area where the first mobile energy storage device is parked, the server determines whether there is a second path for the first mobile energy storage device without obstacles. If a second path for the first mobile energy storage device without obstacles exists, the server sends a first transfer charging command to the first mobile energy storage device, wherein the first transfer charging command includes the second path of the first mobile energy storage device. If the first transfer area, the first transfer path of the vehicle to be charged, and the second path of the first mobile energy storage device all exist simultaneously, it is determined that the first mobile energy storage device can charge the vehicle in the first transfer area.

[0109] S205, The server sends a first transfer charging command to the first mobile energy storage device.

[0110] S206. The first mobile energy storage device travels to the charging location within the first transfer area according to the second path in the first transfer charging instruction.

[0111] More specifically, the first mobile energy storage device travels to the charging location of the vehicle to be charged within the first transfer area according to the second path in the first transfer charging instruction, and charges it in a timely manner.

[0112] In the vehicle charging method provided in this application embodiment, by obtaining obstacle information on the first transfer area, it is determined whether there is a required area for parking the first mobile energy storage device and the vehicle to be charged. The server determines whether there is a first transfer path for the vehicle to be charged and a second path for the first mobile energy storage device without obstacles based on the preset parking positions of the first mobile energy storage device and the vehicle to be charged and the obstacle information on the first transfer area. By determining the possibility of charging the vehicle to be charged in the first transfer area, the situation where charging is not possible in the original area of ​​the vehicle to be charged is solved, thereby improving charging efficiency and user experience.

[0113] Figure 3 A flowchart of a vehicle charging method provided in this application embodiment is shown below. Figure 3 As shown, when the first mobile energy storage device is unable to charge the vehicle to be charged normally within the first transfer area, the vehicle charging method includes the following steps:

[0114] S301, The server sends a second transfer charging command to the first mobile energy storage device.

[0115] More specifically, when the first mobile energy storage device cannot charge the vehicle to be charged normally within the first transfer area, the server sends a prompt message to the first mobile energy storage device, indicating that charging is not possible. The server obtains information about the second mobile energy storage device within the historical charging area of ​​the first mobile energy storage device, sends a collection command to the second mobile energy storage device, causing the second mobile energy storage device to collect obstacle information in the second transfer area and send the obstacle information in the second transfer area to the server. Based on the obstacle information in the second transfer area, if it is determined that the first mobile energy storage device can charge the vehicle to be charged in the second transfer area, a second transfer charging command is generated. The server sends the second transfer charging command to the first mobile energy storage device, and the first mobile energy storage device receives the second transfer charging command sent by the server.

[0116] Determining whether a first mobile energy storage device can charge a vehicle in the second transfer area based on obstacle information in the second transfer area includes: when there is sufficient area in the second transfer area to park the first mobile energy storage device and the vehicle to be charged, the server determines whether there is a second transfer path for the vehicle to be charged without obstacles based on the area of ​​the vehicle to be charged. If there is a second transfer path for the vehicle to be charged without obstacles, the server sends a second transfer reminder instruction to the vehicle to be charged, wherein the second transfer reminder instruction includes the second transfer path of the vehicle to be charged; the server determines whether there is a third path for the first mobile energy storage device without obstacles based on the area of ​​the area where the first mobile energy storage device is parked. If there is a third path for the first mobile energy storage device without obstacles, the server sends a second transfer charging instruction to the first mobile energy storage device, wherein the second transfer charging instruction includes the third path of the first mobile energy storage device. If the second transfer area, the second transfer path of the vehicle to be charged, and the third path of the first mobile energy storage device all exist simultaneously, then it is determined that the first mobile energy storage device can charge the vehicle to be charged in the second transfer area.

The distance between the first transfer area and the original area is less than the distance between the second transfer area and the original area.

[0119] In the vehicle charging method provided in this application embodiment, by acquiring the historical charging area of ​​the first mobile energy storage device, the second energy storage device in the historical charging area collects obstacle information on the second transfer area. The server determines whether there is a required area for parking the first mobile energy storage device and the vehicle to be charged based on the obstacle information on the second transfer area, and determines whether there is a third path for the first mobile energy storage device without obstacles and a second transfer path for the vehicle to be charged based on the preset parking positions of the first mobile energy storage device and the vehicle to be charged, thereby charging the vehicle and proposing a solution for charging not being possible in the first transfer area, thereby improving charging efficiency.
