[0004] In a first aspect, this application provides a charging pile, the charging pile including a housing, a controller, a charging module, and a first preset number of charging interfaces disposed on the housing, the controller and the charging module being disposed within the housing, the charging interfaces being connected to the charging module, the controller being connected to the charging module, and the charging power of the charging pile being capable of simultaneously charging a second preset number of charging devices via a second preset number of charging interfaces, the second preset number being less than the first preset number; the controller is used for: When a charging device is connected to the charging interface of the charging pile, the number of the charging interfaces that are currently charging is obtained. If the number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number, obtain the charging information of the charging device connected to the charging interface, and the charging information includes at least the charging cut-off time and the device usage time. The charging sequence of the charging equipment is determined based on the charging cutoff time and the equipment usage time. According to the charging sequence, the charging module is controlled to charge the charging device connected to the charging interface in sequence.

[0005] Secondly, this application provides a charging management method, the charging management method including a first preset number of charging interfaces, the charging power of the charging pile being able to simultaneously charge a second preset number of charging devices via a second preset number of charging interfaces, wherein the second preset number is less than the first preset number; the method includes: When a charging device is connected to the charging interface of the charging pile, the number of the charging interfaces that are currently charging is obtained. If the number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number, obtain the charging information of the charging device connected to the charging interface, and the charging information includes at least the charging cut-off time and the device usage time. The charging sequence of the charging equipment is determined based on the charging cutoff time and the equipment usage time. According to the charging sequence, the charging module is controlled to charge the charging device connected to the charging interface in sequence.

[0006] Furthermore, this application also provides another charging management method applied to a charging pile, wherein the charging pile includes a first preset number of charging interfaces, and the charging power of the charging pile is sufficient to simultaneously charge a second preset number of charging devices via a second preset number of charging interfaces, wherein the second preset number is less than the first preset number; the method includes: If a charging interface of the charging pile is connected to a charging device, obtain the number of the charging interfaces that are currently charging. If the number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number, the newly connected charging device is added to the charging waiting queue; Once the charging interface that is currently charging has finished charging, the charging devices in the charging waiting queue will be charged sequentially.

The provided charging pile includes a housing, a controller, a charging module, and a first preset number of charging interfaces. The controller and charging module are disposed within the housing, and the charging interfaces are connected to the charging module. The charging power of the provided charging pile is sufficient to charge a second preset number of charging interfaces simultaneously. Since the second preset number is less than the first preset number, when a new charging device is connected, if the number of interfaces currently charging equals the second preset number, the controller will obtain the charging information of the charging device. After the charging interfaces currently charging complete charging, the controller sequentially controls the charging module to charge the charging device according to the charging sequence obtained from the control information.

For example, some operations / steps can be broken down, combined, or partially merged, so the actual execution order may change depending on the actual situation.

[0016] It should be understood that the terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the application. As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0017] It should be understood that, in order to clearly describe the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used in the embodiments of this application to distinguish identical or similar items with substantially the same function and effect. For example, the first preset quantity and the second preset quantity are only used to distinguish different preset quantities and do not limit their order. Those skilled in the art will understand that the terms "first" and "second" do not limit the quantity or execution order, and the terms "first" and "second" are not necessarily different.

[0019] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of this application, some terms involved in the embodiments of this application will be briefly explained below.

[0020] 1. Charging cut-off time: The charging cut-off time refers to the charging time of the charging device. For example, if the charging device needs to be charged for 3 hours, its charging cut-off time is 3 hours to avoid danger caused by overcharging.

[0021] 2. Equipment usage time: This refers to the time during which the user needs to use the charging equipment. For example, if a user connects their vehicle to the charging port of the charging station at 21:00 on March 1st and needs to use the vehicle at 8:00 on March 2nd, then their equipment usage time is 8:00 on March 2nd.

[0022] 3. Distributed soft bus: such as Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic block diagram of the distributed soft bus provided in the embodiments of this application. The distributed soft bus is a virtual, "invisible" bus. It can connect all system devices developed based on the KaihongOS system within the same local area network, and has the characteristics of self-discovery, self-organizing network, high bandwidth and low latency. In addition to connecting hardware devices using the same network protocol, the soft bus technology also supports networking heterogeneous networks with different protocols.

[0023] The open-source HarmonyOS is a brand-new system designed for the era of the Internet of Everything. Building upon the capabilities of traditional single-device systems, the open-source HarmonyOS provides new distributed integrated capabilities to better adapt to next-generation application scenarios involving multiple devices, multiple tasks, and multiple data.

[0024] The distributed soft bus, based on the hardware and software collaboration of Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, provides device discovery and connectivity. After devices discover and connect to each other, the distributed soft bus manages the self-organizing network and topology relationships between devices. The distributed soft bus achieves unified distributed communication management capabilities among near-field devices, providing link-independent device discovery, connection, networking, and transmission capabilities. Its main functions are as follows: 1) Discovery and Connection: Provides device discovery and connection capabilities based on communication methods such as WIFI and Bluetooth.

[0025] 2) Device networking: Provides unified device networking and topology management capabilities, and provides information on networked devices for data transmission.

[0026] 3) Data transmission: Provides data transmission channels and supports message and byte data transmission capabilities.

[0027] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0028] With existing charging stations, once all charging ports are connected, a new electric bicycle can only be connected to charge after a port becomes available and the charger is unplugged. This is especially problematic in the evenings when residents are off work or going to the charging station late at night, as it is difficult to find a suitable charging port, wasting a lot of time and affecting their travel the next day.

[0029] In the embodiments of this application, the charging station can charge any of the following: electric bicycles, batteries, and electric vehicles. The specific category is not limited by this embodiment and the accompanying drawings. The following description uses electric bicycles as an example.

[0030] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a charging pile 10 provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 The provided charging pile 10 includes a housing 11, a controller 12, a charging module 13, and a first preset number of charging interfaces 14 disposed on the housing 11. The controller 12 and the charging module 13 are disposed inside the housing 11, and the charging interfaces 14 are connected to the charging module 13. The charging power of the charging pile 10 is sufficient to charge a second preset number of charging interfaces 14 simultaneously for a second preset number of charging devices 20. The second preset number is less than the first preset number.

[0031] The controller 12 is used to obtain the number of charging interfaces 14 that are currently charging when a charging device 20 is connected to the charging interface 14 of the charging pile 10. If the number of interfaces is equal to a second preset number, the controller obtains the charging information of the charging device connected to the charging interface 14, the charging information including at least the charging cut-off time and the device usage time. The controller determines the charging sequence of the charging devices 20 based on the charging cut-off time and the device usage time; and controls the charging module 13 to charge the charging devices 20 connected to the charging interface 14 sequentially according to the charging sequence.

[0032] Specifically, the charging power of the charging pile 10 can only simultaneously charge a second preset number of charging devices 20. By increasing the number of charging ports 14 of the charging pile 10, when the number of charging ports 14 currently charging equals the second preset number, the charging pile 10 is fully loaded. At this point, it is necessary to obtain the charging cut-off time and device usage time of the newly connected charging device 20. The charging cut-off time refers to the time before the charging device 20 stops charging, while the device usage time is the time the user needs to use the charging device 20 to complete charging. The charging order of the charging devices is updated according to the charging cut-off time and device usage time, and then the charging devices 20 are charged sequentially according to the charging order. By using the charging pile 10 provided in this application embodiment, increasing the number of charging ports 14 of the charging pile 10, that is, increasing from the second preset number to the first preset number, and determining the charging order of the charging devices 20 according to the charging cut-off time and device usage time of the charging devices 20, the charging pile 10 can be safely charged while helping users quickly complete the charging of the charging devices 20.

[0033] For example, if the second preset quantity is fifteen, it means that the charging pile 10 can charge fifteen electric bicycles at the same time. In order to solve the problem of charging difficulty, the charging pile 10 can be equipped with fifteen more charging interfaces, that is, the first preset quantity is thirty. The additional fifteen charging interfaces can be connected to the charging lines of the previous fifteen charging interfaces. Thus, it is possible to charge more charging devices without changing the structure of the charging module 13. Compared with improving the circuit to increase the number of charging interfaces, the solution of this application can further reduce costs and improve product safety.

[0034] It should be noted that the above-mentioned first preset quantity of thirty and second preset quantity of fifteen are merely illustrative examples. In actual applications, it is sufficient to ensure that the first preset quantity is greater than the second preset quantity.

[0035] Since the charging sequence is generally sorted according to the access time of the charging device 20, some users need to charge faster to use their electric bicycles, while others do not have an immediate need to use the vehicle. Therefore, the controller can sort the charging sequence by obtaining the charging cutoff time and the charging time input by the user.

[0036] For example, if the current time is 21:00 on February 25th, A, which is first in the charging sequence, has a charging deadline of 3 hours and a device usage time of 8:00 on February 26th. B, which is fifth in the charging sequence, has a charging deadline of 2 hours and a device usage time of 2 hours. In this case, the controller 12 will prioritize charging B. This adjustment of the charging sequence without affecting the use of A makes the charging pile 10 provided in this embodiment of the application more user-friendly.

[0037] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the charging cutoff time is the charging duration selected by the user. For example, if the user selects to charge for 3 hours, the charging cutoff time is 3 hours. In some embodiments, the charging cutoff time is calculated based on the battery level of the charging device 20. For example, if an electric bicycle has 15% battery remaining and requires 3 hours and 25 minutes to fully charge, then its charging cutoff time is 3 hours and 25 minutes. By determining the charging cutoff time, the danger caused by overcharging of the charging device 20 can be avoided, further improving the safety of the charging pile 10 provided in this application embodiment.

[0038] For example, in some embodiments, the controller 12 needs to be equipped with an operating system to ensure that no logical errors occur during the operation of the charging pile 10. The specific type of operating system is not limited to the embodiments and drawings of this application. This application takes the controller 12 equipped with KaihongOS as an example for introduction.

[0039] It should be noted that the controller 12 can also be called the Kh controller. It supports the connection protocol adapted to KaihongOS and has a charging control logic algorithm written inside. It can easily complete the communication connection with the charging module 13 and can also realize the charging control of multiple charging devices 20.

[0040] Compared to traditional charging piles 10, which require control of charging information through a backend or cloud, the charging pile 10 provided in this application embodiment has a built-in Kh controller, which can quickly complete the charging of charging equipment 20 even in places with weak signals, such as underground carports.

[0041] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the controller 12 and the charging module 13 communicate via the Modbus protocol. In some embodiments, the controller 12 and the charging module 13 communicate via the MQTT protocol. In some embodiments, the controller 12 and the charging module 13 communicate via the Bluetooth protocol. The connection protocol between the controller 12 and the charging module 13 can be any connection protocol supported by KaihongOS, and the specific type is not limited by the embodiments and drawings of this application.

[0042] In some embodiments, the housing 11 is cuboid in shape, and the charging interface 14 is located on the vertically placed surface of the housing 11. In some embodiments, the housing 11 is cylindrical in shape, and the charging interface 14 is located on the vertically placed surface of the housing 11. In some embodiments, the housing 11 is polyhedral in shape, and the charging interface 14 is located on the vertically placed surface of the housing 11. The shape of the housing 11 is related to the space and location of the parking shed, and its specific category is not limited to the embodiments and drawings of this application.

[0043] It should be noted that in some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the housing includes a top surface, a bottom surface, and a side surface; the projections of the top and bottom surfaces in directions perpendicular to the top and bottom surfaces are polygonal, and the charging interface is located on the side surface. By adopting a polygonal structure compared to a cuboid structure, the housing 11 can accommodate more charging interfaces 14, while also making it easier to park electric bicycles, allowing the charging pile 10 provided in this application to accommodate more electric bicycles simultaneously.

[0044] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the projections of the top and bottom surfaces of the housing onto the direction perpendicular to the top and bottom surfaces are circular. Compared to a cuboid structure, the circular structure allows the housing 11 to accommodate more charging ports 14 while also making it easier to park electric bicycles, thus enabling the charging pile 10 provided in this application to accommodate more electric bicycles simultaneously.

[0045] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an extension device 15 provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 The provided expansion device 15 includes a connection terminal 151 and multiple sub-interfaces 152. The expansion device 15 is connected to the charging interface 14 via the connection terminal 151, and the sub-interfaces 152 are all used to connect the charging devices 20. By using the expansion device 15, the capacity of the charging pile 10 provided in this embodiment can be further expanded, thereby enabling the provided charging pile 10 to accommodate more charging devices 20.

[0046] In some embodiments, the provided charging pile 10 further includes a display screen for displaying a QR code. The charging pile 10 is connected to a terminal device via a distributed soft bus. The terminal device displays charging information options by scanning the QR code, so that the terminal device can send the user-selected charging information to the charging pile 10. By scanning the displayed QR code, the user can establish a connection with the terminal device via the distributed soft bus. The terminal device displays charging information options, allowing the user to quickly select the charging information and send it to the charging pile 10. This enables the charging pile 10 provided in this embodiment to quickly obtain the charging information of newly connected charging devices 20, avoiding the difficulty of establishing a connection between the terminal device and the charging pile 10 due to weak signal environments such as underground parking sheds where the charging pile 10 is located. For example, in some embodiments, the terminal device is also equipped with the KaihongOS operating system to ensure that it can establish a connection with the charging pile 10 through a distributed soft bus.

[0047] For example, in some embodiments, the display screen includes a first display area and a second display area. The first display area is used to display a QR code. The charging pile 10 and the terminal device are connected via a distributed soft bus. The terminal device displays charging information options by scanning the QR code, so that the terminal device can send the user-selected charging information to the charging pile 10. The second display area is used to display a charging information input interface, used to obtain the charging information input by the user.

[0048] By setting a first display area and a second display area on the screen, the application scope of the charging pile 10 provided in this application embodiment can be further enriched. Users can scan the QR code in the first display area to communicate with the controller 12 via their terminal device, and then send charging information to the controller 12. When the user's mobile phone runs out of power or the QR code scan fails, the user can also input charging information in the second display area, and the screen can transmit the charging information to the controller 12, further improving the user experience when using the charging pile 10 provided in this application embodiment.

[0049] In some embodiments, when the number of charging interfaces 14 that are being charged is less than a second preset number, the controller 12 is further configured to: control the charging module 13 to charge the newly connected charging device.

[0050] When the number of charging ports 14 that are charging is less than the second preset number, the charging pile 10 is not in full load state, and the controller 12 can promptly control the charging module 13 to charge the charging device 14.

[0051] In some embodiments, before acquiring the charging information of the charging device 20 connected to the charging interface 14, the provided controller 12 is further configured to: acquire the charging mode selected by the user, the charging mode including a first charging mode and a second charging mode; if the charging mode selected by the user is the first charging mode, then execute the step of acquiring the charging information of the charging device 20 connected to the charging interface 14, so as to determine the charging order of the user's charging device 20 using the acquired charging information, and charge according to the charging order; if the charging mode selected by the user is the second charging mode, add the newly connected charging device 20 to the charging waiting queue, and when the charging interface that is currently charging is completed, sequentially control the charging module 13 to charge the charging devices 20 in the charging waiting queue.

[0052] By setting a first charging mode and a second charging mode, when the user selects the first charging mode, the charging sequence is confirmed based on the acquired charging information, and then the charging device 20 is charged according to the charging sequence. When the user selects the second charging mode, the newly connected charging device 20 is added to the charging waiting queue. After the charging interface 14 that is currently charging is completed, the charging module is controlled to charge the charging devices in the charging waiting queue in sequence. By switching between the above modes, the user can choose the first charging mode when they are in a hurry to complete charging, and can use the second charging mode when they are not in a hurry. This allows the charging pile 10 provided in this application embodiment to meet the needs of different users, thereby indirectly improving the charging efficiency of the charging pile for charging devices.

[0053] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 This is a schematic block diagram of another charging pile 10 provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 4 In this embodiment of the application, the charging pile 10 can serve as a main charging pile 10 and be connected to a secondary charging pile 30 within a preset distance range via a distributed soft bus. The secondary charging pile 30 and the main charging pile 10 are of the same type.

[0054] This type of identical structure can include the main charging pile 10 and the slave charging pile 30 having completely identical structures, or it can be that the main charging pile 10 and the slave charging pile 30 have different numbers of charging interfaces.

[0055] Since the main charging pile 10 and the slave charging pile 30 have the same structure, the slave charging pile 30 also includes a controller 12 equipped with KaihongOS. Therefore, the slave charging pile 30 can establish a connection with the main charging pile 10 within a preset distance via a distributed soft bus, thereby enabling the charging resources within the preset range to be reasonably allocated and improving the resource utilization rate of the charging pile 10 provided in this application embodiment.

[0056] For example, if the preset distance is 100m, the main charging pile 10 will establish a connection with the secondary charging pile 30 within 100m through a distributed soft bus, so that the user can learn about the usage of the charging interface 14 of the secondary charging pile 30 through the main charging pile 10.

[0057] For example, in some embodiments, after the number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number, the controller 12 is further configured to: obtain the number of charging interfaces 14 of the charging pile 30 that is being charged; if the number of charging interfaces 14 of the charging pile 30 that is being charged is less than the second preset number, control the charging module 13 of the charging pile 30 to charge the newly connected charging device 20.

[0058] When the main charging pile 10 is already fully loaded, by obtaining the number of charging interfaces 14 of the slave charging pile 30, the user can select a slave charging pile 30 that is not fully loaded to complete the charging of the charging device 20, so that the user can determine the charging interface 14 that can be charged as soon as possible in an emergency.

[0059] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the number of charging ports 14 on the secondary charging pile 30 may be the same as the number of charging ports 14 on the primary charging pile 10. In some embodiments, the number of charging ports 14 on the secondary charging pile 30 may also be different from the number of charging ports 14 on the primary charging pile 10. The number of charging ports 14 on the secondary charging pile 30 is determined according to its own model and is not affected by the embodiments and drawings of this application.

[0060] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the number of charging interfaces 14 on the secondary charging pile 30 that can satisfy the second preset number is the same as the number of charging interfaces 14 on the main charging pile 10 that can satisfy the second preset number. In some embodiments, the number of charging interfaces 14 on the secondary charging pile 30 that can satisfy the second preset number is different from the number of charging interfaces 14 on the main charging pile 10. The number of charging interfaces 14 on the secondary charging pile 30 that can satisfy the second preset number is determined based on its own charging power and is not affected by the embodiments and drawings of this application.

[0061] In some embodiments, the controller 12 is further configured to: obtain the number of connected interfaces; if the number of connected interfaces is equal to the first preset number, obtain the dwell time of the charging device 20 after charging is completed; when the dwell time is greater than the preset time, generate dwell information, the dwell information including the information of the currently dwelling charging device.

[0062] If a charging device 20 that has completed charging is not moved out in time, and all charging ports 14 are full, newly arriving charging devices 20 will have difficulty finding a charging port 14 to connect to. Therefore, if the dwell time of a charging device 20 after charging is completed exceeds a preset time, a dwell information will be generated. This dwell information includes information about the currently dwelling charging devices. By using the dwell information, it is possible to determine how many of the charging devices 20 currently connected to the charging pile 10 are in a dwelling state, and relevant personnel will be notified as soon as possible to move the dwelling charging devices 20.

[0063] For example, in some embodiments, the charging pile 20 sends the information about the stranded devices to the terminal device corresponding to the stranded charging device 20, notifying the user to remove their charging device 20 as soon as possible. In some embodiments, the charging pile 20 sends the information about the stranded devices to the terminal device held by the administrator of the charging pile 20, who then periodically removes the stranded vehicles. In some embodiments, the charging pile 20 sends the information about the stranded devices to terminal devices within a preset range, which helps the user identify charging devices 20 that can be removed. Therefore, the embodiments of this application do not limit the recipients of the information about the stranded devices.

[0064] For example, in some embodiments, the controller 12 is further configured to: if the charging pile 10 is connected to a terminal device within a preset distance range via a distributed soft bus; send the lingering information to the terminal device. When all charging interfaces 14 of the charging pile 10 are connected, by obtaining the lingering information, the terminal device within the preset distance range can determine whether the charging device 20 connected to the charging interface 14 can be disconnected, thereby helping the user quickly complete the charging of the charging device 20 and significantly saving the user's time.

[0065] This application provides a charging pile, which includes a housing, a controller, a charging module, and a first preset number of charging interfaces. The controller and charging module are housed within the housing, and the charging interfaces are connected to the charging module. The charging power of the charging pile is sufficient to charge a second preset number of charging interfaces simultaneously. Since the second preset number is less than the first preset number, when a new charging device is connected, if the number of interfaces currently charging equals the second preset number, the controller acquires the charging information of the charging device. After the charging interfaces currently charging complete their charging, the controller sequentially controls the charging module to charge the charging device according to the charging sequence obtained from the control information. By expanding the number of charging interfaces in the charging pile and setting corresponding charging logic in the controller—that is, when the number of interfaces currently charging equals the second preset number—the charging sequence is determined using the charging end time and device usage time of the charging device, and then controlled using the charging sequence, thereby ensuring the safety of the charging pile while helping users quickly complete the charging of the charging device.

[0066] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a charging management system 100 provided in an embodiment of this application. The charging management system 100 includes a charging pile 10 and a charging device 20 provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0067] In some embodiments, the charging pile 10 may refer to Figures 2 to 4 Examples of configurations can be used. For instance, the charging pile 10 includes the housing 11, controller 12, charging module 13, and a first preset number of charging interfaces 14 disposed on the housing 11 as described in the above embodiments. The specific configuration of the charging pile 10 can be referred to the corresponding embodiments described in this specification, which will not be repeated here.

[0068] By adopting the charging management system 100 provided in this application embodiment, the charging pile 10 can charge multiple charging devices 20 simultaneously. If the charging pile 10 is already fully loaded, the charging device 20 will be charged according to the charging order after the charging device 20 is fully charged, or the charging device 20 will be charged according to the charging waiting queue, which greatly improves the charging capacity of the provided charging management system 100 and improves the utilization rate of the charging management system 100.

[0069] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating the steps of a charging management method provided in this application embodiment. The provided charging management method is applied to a charging pile, which can be any of the charging piles 10 provided in the above embodiments.

[0070] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the provided charging pile is equipped with the KaihongOS operating system, which can implement the charging management method provided in the embodiments of this application by writing the corresponding charging control algorithm inside it.

[0071] like Figure 6 As shown, the provided charging management method includes steps S101 to S104.

[0072] S101. When a charging device is connected to the charging interface of the charging pile, obtain the number of the charging interfaces that are currently charging.

[0073] Specifically, when there is a charging device connected to the charging pile's charging interface, the number of charging interfaces that are currently charging can be obtained to determine whether the charging pile is at full load.

[0074] S102. The number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number. The charging information of the charging device connected to the charging interface is obtained. The charging information includes at least the charging cut-off time and the device usage time.

[0075] Specifically, when the number of charging ports that are charging is equal to the second preset number, that is, when the charging pile is fully loaded, the charging cut-off time and device usage time of the newly added charging device are obtained. The charging cut-off time refers to the time that the charging device takes to charge, while the device usage time is the time that the user needs to use the charging device to complete the charging process.

[0076] In some embodiments, the provided charging pile further includes a display screen for displaying a QR code. The charging pile and the terminal device are connected via a distributed soft bus. The terminal device displays charging information options by scanning the QR code, enabling the terminal device to send the user-selected charging information to the charging pile. By scanning the displayed QR code, the user can establish a connection with the terminal device via the distributed soft bus. The terminal device displays charging information options, allowing the user to quickly select and send the charging information to the charging pile. This enables the charging management method provided in this application to quickly obtain charging information from newly connected charging devices, avoiding difficulties in establishing a connection between the terminal device and the charging pile due to weak signal environments such as underground parking sheds.

[0077] For example, in some embodiments, the display screen includes a first display area and a second display area. The first display area is used to display a QR code. The charging pile and the terminal device are connected via a distributed soft bus. The terminal device displays charging information options by scanning the QR code, so that the terminal device can send the user-selected charging information to the charging pile. The second display area is used to display a charging information input interface, used to obtain the charging information input by the user.

[0078] By setting a first display area and a second display area on the screen, the application scope of the charging management method provided in this application embodiment can be further enriched. Users can scan the QR code in the first display area to communicate with the controller via their terminal device and send charging information to the controller. When the user's phone runs out of power or the QR code scan fails, the user can also input charging information in the second display area, and the screen can transmit the charging information to the controller, further improving the user experience of using the charging management method provided in this application embodiment.

[0079] S103. Determine the charging sequence of the charging equipment based on the charging cutoff time and equipment usage time.

[0080] Specifically, since the charging waiting queue is generally sorted according to the access time of the charging device 20, but sometimes some users need to charge faster to complete their trip, while others do not have an immediate need to use the vehicle, the charging pile can update the charging order of the charging devices based on the charging cutoff time and the time required for charging by obtaining the charging cutoff time input by the user.

[0081] For example, if the current time is 21:00 on February 25th, A, which is first in the charging sequence, has a charging deadline of 3 hours and a device usage time of 8:00 on February 26th. B, which is fifth in the charging sequence, has a charging deadline of 2 hours and a device usage time of 2 hours. In this case, the controller 12 will prioritize charging B. This adjustment of the charging sequence without affecting the use of A makes the charging pile 10 provided in this embodiment of the application more user-friendly.

[0082] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the charging cutoff time is the charging duration selected by the user. For example, if the user selects to charge for 3 hours, the charging cutoff time is 3 hours. In some embodiments, the charging cutoff time is calculated based on the battery level of the charging device 20. For example, if an electric bicycle has 15% battery remaining and requires 3 hours and 25 minutes to fully charge, then its charging cutoff time is 3 hours and 25 minutes. By determining the charging cutoff time, the danger caused by overcharging of the charging device 20 can be avoided, further improving the safety of the charging pile 10 provided in this application embodiment.

[0083] S104. According to the charging sequence, the charging module is controlled to charge the charging device connected to the charging interface in sequence.

[0084] Specifically, once a charging port that is currently charging has completed its charge, the charging station will sequentially charge the other devices according to the charging order. Compared to existing charging station management methods, this approach increases the number of charging ports, enabling the charging station to charge more devices. This not only increases the charging station's revenue but also allows for a more efficient charging sequence, significantly improving the user experience.

[0085] In some embodiments, before obtaining the charging information of the charging device connected to the charging interface, the following can also be achieved: obtaining the charging mode selected by the user, the charging mode including a first charging mode and a second charging mode; if the charging mode selected by the user is the first charging mode, then the step of obtaining the charging information of the charging device connected to the charging interface is executed, so as to determine the charging order of the user's charging devices using the obtained charging information, and charge according to the charging order; if the charging mode selected by the user is the second charging mode, the newly connected charging device is added to the charging waiting queue, and when the charging interface that is currently charging is completed, the charging module is sequentially controlled to charge the charging devices in the charging waiting queue.

[0086] By setting a first charging mode and a second charging mode, when a user selects the first charging mode, the charging order is confirmed based on the acquired charging information, and then the charging devices are charged according to the charging order. When a user selects the second charging mode, newly connected charging devices are added to the charging waiting queue. Once the charging interface that is currently charging is completed, the charging module is controlled to charge the charging devices in the charging waiting queue in sequence. By switching between the above modes, users can choose the first charging mode when they are in a hurry to complete charging, and can use the second charging mode when they are not in a hurry. This allows the charging management method provided in this application embodiment to meet the needs of different users, thereby indirectly improving the charging efficiency of the charging pile for the charging devices.

[0087] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the charging pile provided in this application embodiment can serve as a main charging pile and be connected to a secondary charging pile within a preset distance range via a distributed soft bus. The secondary charging piles are of the same type as the main charging pile.

[0088] This type of identical charging station can include main charging station 10 and slave charging station 30 having completely identical structures, or it can be that the number of charging interfaces of the main charging station and slave charging station are different.

[0089] Since the main charging pile and the slave charging pile have the same structure, the slave charging pile is also equipped with KaihongOS. Therefore, the slave charging pile can establish a connection with the main charging pile within a preset distance through a distributed soft bus, thereby enabling the charging resources within the preset range to be reasonably allocated and improving the resource utilization rate of the charging management method provided in this application embodiment.

[0090] For example, if the preset distance is 100m, the main charging pile will establish a connection with the slave charging piles within 100m through a distributed soft bus, so that the user can know the usage status of the charging interface of the slave charging pile through the main charging pile.

[0091] For example, in some embodiments, after the statement that the number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number, the method further includes: obtaining the number of charging interfaces of the charging pile that is currently charging; if the number of charging interfaces of the charging pile that is currently charging is less than the second preset number, controlling the charging module of the charging pile to charge the newly connected charging device.

[0092] When the main charging station is already fully loaded, by obtaining the number of charging interfaces of the secondary charging station, the user can select a secondary charging station that is not fully loaded to charge the device, so that the user can determine the charging interface that can be used for charging as soon as possible in an emergency.

[0093] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the number of charging ports on the secondary charging station may be the same as the number of charging ports on the primary charging station. In some embodiments, the number of charging ports on the secondary charging station may also be different from the number of charging ports on the primary charging station. The number of charging ports on the secondary charging station is determined according to its own model and is not affected by the embodiments and drawings of this application.

[0094] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the number of charging interfaces on the secondary charging station that can meet the second preset number is the same as the number of charging interfaces on the main charging station that can meet the second preset number. In some embodiments, the number of charging interfaces on the secondary charging station that can meet the second preset number is different from the number of charging interfaces on the main charging station. The number of charging interfaces on the secondary charging station that can meet the second preset number is determined based on its own charging power and is not affected by the embodiments and drawings of this application.

[0095] In some embodiments, the method further includes: obtaining the number of connected interfaces; if the number of connected interfaces is equal to the first preset number, obtaining the dwell time of the charging device after charging is completed; when the dwell time is greater than the preset time, generating dwell information, the dwell information including the information of the currently dwelling charging device.

[0096] Because if charging devices that have completed charging are not moved out in time, new charging devices will have difficulty finding a charging interface to connect when all charging ports are full. Therefore, if the dwell time of a charging device after charging is completed exceeds a preset time, a dwell information will be generated. This dwell information includes information about the currently dwelling charging devices. By using the dwell information, it is possible to determine how many charging devices connected to the charging station are in a dwelling state and to notify relevant personnel to move the dwelling charging devices as soon as possible.

[0097] For example, in some embodiments, the charging pile sends the information about the abandoned device to the terminal device corresponding to the abandoned charging device 20, notifying the user to remove the charging device as soon as possible. In some embodiments, the charging pile sends the information about the abandoned device to the terminal device held by the charging pile administrator, who then periodically removes the abandoned vehicles. In some embodiments, the charging pile sends the information about the abandoned device to terminal devices within a preset range, which helps the user identify charging devices that can be removed. Therefore, the embodiments of this application do not limit the recipients of the information about the abandoned device.

[0098] For example, in some embodiments, the controller is further configured to: if the charging pile is connected to a terminal device within a preset distance range via a distributed soft bus; send the lingering information to the terminal device. When all charging interfaces of the charging pile are connected, by obtaining the lingering information, the terminal device within the preset distance range can determine which charging device can be disconnected from the charging interface, thereby helping the user quickly complete the charging of the charging device and significantly saving the user's time.

[0099] This application provides a charging management method applied to charging piles. The charging pile includes a first preset number of charging interfaces. The charging power of the charging pile is sufficient to charge a second preset number of charging interfaces simultaneously. Since the second preset number is less than the first preset number, when a new charging device is connected, if the number of interfaces currently charging equals the second preset number, the charging pile acquires the charging information of the charging device. After the charging interfaces currently charging complete charging, the charging pile sequentially controls the charging module to charge the charging device according to the charging sequence obtained from the control information. By expanding the number of charging interfaces in the charging pile and setting corresponding charging logic in the controller—that is, when the number of interfaces currently charging equals the second preset number—the charging sequence is determined using the charging end time and device usage time of the charging device, and then controlled using the charging sequence. This ensures the safety of the charging pile while helping users quickly complete the charging of the charging device.

[0100] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating the steps of another charging management method provided in this application embodiment. The provided charging management method is applied to a charging pile, which can be any of the charging piles 10 provided in the above embodiments.

[0101] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the provided charging pile is equipped with the KaihongOS operating system, which can implement the charging management method provided in the embodiments of this application by writing the corresponding charging control algorithm inside it.

[0102] like Figure 7As shown, the provided charging management method includes steps S201 to S203.

[0103] S201. If a charging interface of the charging pile is connected to the charging device, obtain the number of the charging interfaces that are currently charging.

[0104] Specifically, when there is a charging device connected to the charging pile's charging interface, the number of charging interfaces that are currently charging can be obtained to determine whether the charging pile is at full load.

[0105] S202. If the number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number, add the newly connected charging device to the charging waiting queue.

[0106] Specifically, when the number of charging ports that are charging is equal to the second preset number, that is, when the charging pile is fully loaded, the newly added charging device is added to the charging waiting queue and waits for the device that is charging in the charging pile to finish charging.

[0107] S203. Once the charging interface that is currently charging has finished charging, the charging devices in the charging waiting queue are charged sequentially.

[0108] Specifically, once the charging port in progress has finished charging, the charging station will then charge the devices in the charging queue in sequence. Compared to existing charging station management methods, this approach increases the number of charging ports, enabling the charging station to charge more devices, thus boosting revenue and providing greater convenience for users.

[0109] In some embodiments, before obtaining the charging information of the charging device connected to the charging interface, the following can also be achieved: obtaining the charging mode selected by the user, the charging mode including a first charging mode and a second charging mode; if the charging mode selected by the user is the first charging mode, then the step of obtaining the charging information of the charging device connected to the charging interface is executed, so as to determine the charging order of the user's charging devices using the obtained charging information, and charge according to the charging order; if the charging mode selected by the user is the second charging mode, the newly connected charging device is added to the charging waiting queue, and when the charging interface that is currently charging is completed, the charging module is sequentially controlled to charge the charging devices in the charging waiting queue.

[0110] By setting a first charging mode and a second charging mode, when a user selects the first charging mode, the charging order is confirmed based on the acquired charging information, and then the charging devices are charged according to the charging order. When a user selects the second charging mode, newly connected charging devices are added to the charging waiting queue. Once the charging interface that is currently charging is completed, the charging module is controlled to charge the charging devices in the charging waiting queue in sequence. By switching between the above modes, users can choose the first charging mode when they are in a hurry to complete charging, and can use the second charging mode when they are not in a hurry. This allows the charging management method provided in this application embodiment to meet the needs of different users, thereby indirectly improving the charging efficiency of the charging pile for the charging devices.

[0111] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the charging pile provided in this application embodiment can serve as a main charging pile and be connected to a secondary charging pile within a preset distance range via a distributed soft bus. The secondary charging piles are of the same type as the main charging pile.

[0112] This type of identical charging station can include main charging station 10 and slave charging station 30 having completely identical structures, or it can be that the number of charging interfaces of the main charging station and slave charging station are different.

[0113] Since the main charging pile and the slave charging pile have the same structure, the slave charging pile is also equipped with KaihongOS. Therefore, the slave charging pile can establish a connection with the main charging pile within a preset distance through a distributed soft bus, thereby enabling the charging resources within the preset range to be reasonably allocated and improving the resource utilization rate of the charging management method provided in this application embodiment.

[0114] For example, if the preset distance is 100m, the main charging pile will establish a connection with the slave charging piles within 100m through a distributed soft bus, so that the user can know the usage status of the charging interface of the slave charging pile through the main charging pile.

[0115] For example, in some embodiments, after the statement that the number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number, the method further includes: obtaining the number of charging interfaces of the charging pile that is currently charging; if the number of charging interfaces of the charging pile that is currently charging is less than the second preset number, controlling the charging module of the charging pile to charge the newly connected charging device.

[0116] When the main charging station is already fully loaded, by obtaining the number of charging interfaces of the secondary charging station, the user can select a secondary charging station that is not fully loaded to charge the device, so that the user can determine the charging interface that can be used for charging as soon as possible in an emergency.

[0117] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the number of charging ports on the secondary charging station may be the same as the number of charging ports on the primary charging station. In some embodiments, the number of charging ports on the secondary charging station may also be different from the number of charging ports on the primary charging station. The number of charging ports on the secondary charging station is determined according to its own model and is not affected by the embodiments and drawings of this application.

[0118] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the number of charging interfaces on the secondary charging station that can meet the second preset number is the same as the number of charging interfaces on the main charging station that can meet the second preset number. In some embodiments, the number of charging interfaces on the secondary charging station that can meet the second preset number is different from the number of charging interfaces on the main charging station. The number of charging interfaces on the secondary charging station that can meet the second preset number is determined based on its own charging power and is not affected by the embodiments and drawings of this application.

[0119] In some embodiments, the method further includes: obtaining the number of connected interfaces; if the number of connected interfaces is equal to the first preset number, obtaining the dwell time of the charging device after charging is completed; when the dwell time is greater than the preset time, generating dwell information, the dwell information including the information of the currently dwelling charging device.

[0120] Because if charging devices that have completed charging are not moved out in time, new charging devices will have difficulty finding a charging interface to connect when all charging ports are full. Therefore, if the dwell time of a charging device after charging is completed exceeds a preset time, a dwell information will be generated. This dwell information includes information about the currently dwelling charging devices. By using the dwell information, it is possible to determine how many charging devices connected to the charging station are in a dwelling state and to notify relevant personnel to move the dwelling charging devices as soon as possible.

[0121] For example, in some embodiments, the charging pile sends the information about the abandoned device to the terminal device corresponding to the abandoned charging device 20, notifying the user to remove the charging device as soon as possible. In some embodiments, the charging pile sends the information about the abandoned device to the terminal device held by the charging pile administrator, who then periodically removes the abandoned vehicles. In some embodiments, the charging pile sends the information about the abandoned device to terminal devices within a preset range, which helps the user identify charging devices that can be removed. Therefore, the embodiments of this application do not limit the recipients of the information about the abandoned device.

[0122] For example, in some embodiments, the controller is further configured to: if the charging pile is connected to a terminal device within a preset distance range via a distributed soft bus; send the lingering information to the terminal device. When all charging interfaces of the charging pile are connected, by obtaining the lingering information, the terminal device within the preset distance range can determine which charging device can be disconnected from the charging interface, thereby helping the user quickly complete the charging of the charging device and significantly saving the user's time.

[0123] This application provides a charging management method applied to charging piles. The charging pile includes a first preset number of charging interfaces. The charging power of the charging pile is sufficient to charge a second preset number of charging interfaces simultaneously. Since the second preset number is less than the first preset number, when a new charging device is connected, if the number of interfaces currently charging equals the second preset number, the charging pile adds the newly connected charging device to a charging waiting queue. After the charging interfaces currently charging complete charging, the charging pile sequentially charges the charging devices in the charging waiting queue. By expanding the number of charging interfaces in the charging pile and setting corresponding charging logic in the controller—that is, adding the charging device to the charging waiting queue when the number of interfaces currently charging equals the second preset number, and then charging according to the charging waiting queue—the resource utilization rate of the charging pile can be improved while ensuring its safety.

[0124] It should also be noted that the two different charging management methods provided above are the same as the charging pile implementation methods provided above, and can achieve the corresponding effects. It is understood that, in addition to S101-104 and S201-203, the charging management methods described above can also be combined with other method steps provided in the charging pile embodiments to achieve the corresponding functions and effects.

For example, when the computer program is loaded by the processor, it can perform the following steps: When a charging device is connected to the charging interface of the charging pile, the number of charging interfaces that are currently charging is obtained; if the number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number, the charging information of the charging device connected to the charging interface is obtained, and the charging information includes at least the charging cut-off time and the device usage time; the charging sequence of the charging devices is determined according to the charging cut-off time and the device usage time. According to the charging sequence, the charging module is controlled to charge the charging device connected to the charging interface in sequence.

[0126] In some embodiments, the computer program, loaded by the processor, may also perform the following steps: If a charging device is connected to a charging interface of the charging pile, the number of charging interfaces that are currently charging is obtained; if the number of interfaces is equal to the second preset number, the newly connected charging device is added to the charging waiting queue; when the charging interface that is currently charging has finished charging, the charging devices in the charging waiting queue are charged in sequence.
