Cars, bicycles, and other means of transportation have made travel more and more convenient. As people's advocacy and demand for healthy living and environmental protection continue to increase, electric vehicles, as a form of green travel, have received more and more attention. Electric cars, electric bicycles, and other green travel methods have become the main choices for people's travel.

[0003] When traveling by electric vehicle, its range may not meet the user's long-distance travel needs. In this case, the user can go to a charging station located in the city to borrow power from the station to solve the problem of insufficient power. Users can find the location of the charging station, but after arriving at the station, they may have to spend a lot of time waiting for the power source to finish charging, resulting in low efficiency in borrowing power and affecting the user's travel convenience. Summary of the Invention

[0090] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this disclosure, and not all of them. The components of the embodiments of this disclosure described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this disclosure provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed disclosure, but merely represents selected embodiments of this disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this disclosure without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0091] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0092] In this document, the term "and / or" merely describes a relationship, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent three cases: A alone, A and B simultaneously, and B alone. Furthermore, the term "at least one" in this document means any combination of at least two of any one or more elements. For example, including at least one of A, B, and C can mean including any one or more elements selected from the set consisting of A, B, and C.

[0093] Currently, most methods for users to borrow electricity when traveling in electric vehicles involve checking the location of nearby charging stations and the current battery level of the batteries in those stations using a terminal device. However, there are instances where users arrive at the charging station only to find that the batteries are not fully charged. This means that users may have to spend a lot of time waiting for the batteries to finish charging, and they cannot immediately access a fully charged battery. This prevents users from planning their trips in advance based on their travel needs, which may delay their journeys.

[0094] Based on the above research, this disclosure provides a method for reserving electricity, applied to a terminal in a power charging management system. The power charging management system includes a terminal and at least one charging device capable of communicating with the terminal. The charging device is used to place and charge the power source. When the electricity consumption of the user corresponding to the terminal meets the preset electricity consumption conditions, the current location information of the terminal is obtained, and the terminal displays at least one replaceable power source available for the user, as well as the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power source to reach the preset charge level. In response to the user's reservation operation for a target power source among the at least one replaceable power source based on the estimated remaining charging time, the reservation lock information for the target power source is sent to the target charging device of the target power source, so that the charging device can set the target power source to a locked state. By providing users with the estimated remaining charging time, users can more accurately and quickly determine a suitable target power source by combining the estimated remaining charging time with their travel plans, thereby flexibly arranging electricity borrowing time, improving the efficiency of electricity borrowing and use, and enhancing the convenience of user travel.

[0095] Furthermore, after the user makes a reservation for the target power source, the reservation lock information for the target power source is sent to the target charging device so that the charging device can set the target power source to a locked state, ensuring that the target power source is used only by the user, reducing the possibility of conflicts between the user and others, and enabling the power source to be used reasonably, flexibly and effectively.

[0096] The deficiencies of the above solutions and the proposed solutions are the result of the inventor's practice and careful research. Therefore, the discovery process of the above problems and the solutions proposed in this disclosure below should be considered as the inventor's contribution to this disclosure.

[0097] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a detailed description of the electricity reservation method disclosed in this disclosure will be provided first. The execution entity of the electricity reservation method provided in this disclosure is generally a computer device with a certain computing capability. For example, the electricity reservation method can be executed by a terminal device, a server, or other processing devices. In some possible implementations, the electricity reservation method can be implemented by a processor calling computer-readable instructions stored in memory.

[0098] The following describes a method for reserving electricity according to an embodiment of this disclosure.

[0099] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a scenario for a method of reserving electricity according to an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 1As shown, in the scenario of making a power borrowing reservation, there is a power charging management system. The power charging management system includes at least one terminal (m terminals here are just examples) and at least one charging device (n charging devices here are just examples). Each terminal can communicate with any one of the charging devices, and each charging device is used to place at least one power source and charge the power source.

[0100] Here, the terminal can be a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone or tablet, or an in-vehicle terminal configured on a vehicle. The charging equipment can be a charging cabinet, battery swapping cabinet, charging pile, or other equipment that can house a power source and charge it.

[0101] The terminal can be equipped with corresponding application software or connected to the charging device via a webpage or other online means. The charging device can send relevant information about at least one power source to the terminal, allowing the user to view the power sources and select the desired target power source based on the information. After receiving a reservation operation from the user for the selected target power source via the terminal, the terminal can send reservation lock information for the target power source to the charging device where the target power source is located. The charging device can then lock the target power source according to the reservation lock information.

[0102] Here, the power charging management system can be built on a cloud server. The cloud server has a large amount of storage space to ensure data storage performance. In this way, the relevant information of the power emitted by the charging device and the reservation and locking information issued by the terminal can be stored in the power charging management system for the management and maintenance of power borrowing and use, thereby improving the user's power borrowing experience.

[0103] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for reserving electricity according to an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 2 The method shown can be applied to Figure 1 The terminal in the middle. For example... Figure 2 As shown in the embodiments of this disclosure, the method for reserving electricity includes:

[0104] S201: If the power consumption of the user corresponding to the terminal meets the preset power consumption conditions, obtain the current location information of the terminal.

[0105] The user's power consumption status can refer to the remaining battery power of the user's terminals, devices, tools, etc. During the user's journey using an electric vehicle, the user's terminal can access the vehicle's backend system to obtain the vehicle's power consumption status in real time, i.e., obtain the user's power consumption status. When the power consumption status meets preset power consumption conditions, it can be considered that the vehicle's battery is low and needs to be charged. To facilitate obtaining information on charging equipment and power sources, the user's location must first be determined. Since most terminals have a built-in Global Positioning System (GPS), the current location information of the terminal can be obtained, allowing for targeted acquisition of information on charging equipment and power sources in the user's area based on the current location information.

[0106] Specifically, the system can systematically acquire vehicle power consumption data at preset time intervals. This power consumption data may include information such as vehicle model, power consumption, battery capacity, and current vehicle battery level.

[0107] Here, the preset power conditions can be set separately for different vehicles, with standard power levels. When the current vehicle power level is less than or equal to the standard power level, it can be determined that the vehicle is in low power mode and needs to be charged in time.

[0108] For example, for a certain model of vehicle, the current state of charge (SOC) of the vehicle battery is obtained, and a preset low SOC warning value for that model of vehicle is also obtained. Here, the low SOC warning value can be a default setting based on the vehicle attributes, or it can be entered by the user. Taking a low SOC warning value of 20% as an example, when the current vehicle battery SOC is detected to be less than or equal to 20%, it is considered that the preset power consumption conditions are met, and the vehicle needs to be charged in time.

[0109] Optionally, the user may also be allowed to determine whether the vehicle needs charging based on their travel needs.

[0110] The current location information may include information such as the province, city, district, and street where the terminal is located, or information such as the latitude and longitude of the terminal.

[0111] In practical applications, there are also cases where users want to plan their trips in advance and, even when the vehicle is not in low battery mode, want to know the distribution of power sources in the vicinity. In this case, the system can respond to the user's input of a preset battery level and / or target area on the terminal, obtain the terminal's current location information, and then display the power sources to the user.

[0112] S202: Based on the current location information, the terminal displays at least one replaceable power source available for the user, and the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power source to reach a preset charge level.

[0113] In this step, after determining the current location information, the preset power level of the power source that the user expects to obtain can be acquired simultaneously. Then, based on the current location information, the target area where the user is located can be determined. Through the power management charging system, a communication connection can be established between the charging devices in the target area and the terminal, so that the terminal can obtain basic battery parameter information, estimated remaining charging time, and other information of at least one replaceable power source that can be used by the user from the charging devices in the area.

[0114] The method for determining the target area where the user is located can be based on the default settings, taking the area within the default numerical range centered on the current location as the target area according to the principle of proximity, or it can be based on the user's input, taking the area input by the user as the target area.

[0115] Here, displaying the replaceable power source can be done by showing its identifier, such as its icon, name, thumbnail, or identifier. Displaying the estimated remaining charging time can be done by showing the power percentage or charge level of the replaceable power source. Additionally, other basic battery parameters of the replaceable power source can be displayed to the user, such as current charge level, charging power, discharging power, charging and discharging current and / or voltage, location, storage medium, and parameters of the charging device.

[0116] The preset battery level refers to the amount of battery power the user expects to borrow. The specific value of the preset battery level can be set by the user in advance, such as by the user inputting the preset battery level value through the terminal, or by the terminal setting the preset battery level based on the user's vehicle situation, or by the charging device setting the preset battery level by default based on the power characteristics. No restrictions are imposed here.

[0117] Here, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset power level can be determined by the charging device calculating it and sending the calculated estimated remaining charging time to the terminal, or by the terminal calculating it after receiving the power data of the replaceable power supply sent by the charging device.

[0118] For details, please refer to the following: Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating a power information display method provided in an embodiment of the power reservation method of this disclosure. For example... Figure 3As shown, the method includes:

[0119] S301: Based on the current location information, determine at least one charging device set up in the target area where the user is located for charging the placed power source.

[0120] In this step, given the current location information, the target area where the user is located can be determined based on the current location information, thereby identifying at least one charging device set up in the target area for charging the placed power source, so that the at least one charging device and the terminal can subsequently transmit information related to the replaceable power source.

[0121] S302: Receive the current power level of at least one replaceable power source that can be used by the user, sent by the at least one charging device, and the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power source to reach a preset power level from the current power level, wherein the estimated remaining charging time is determined by the charging device based on the current power level, the preset power level, and charging information for charging the replaceable power source.

[0122] In this step, due to the communication connection between the at least one charging device and the terminal, the terminal can receive the current power level of at least one replaceable power source that can be used by the user, sent by the at least one charging device, and the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power source to reach a preset power level from the current power level.

[0123] Here, the estimated remaining charging time is determined by the charging device based on the current power level, the preset power level, and charging information for charging the replaceable power source.

[0124] S303: The terminal displays the at least one replaceable power source and the estimated remaining charging time corresponding to the replaceable power source.

[0125] In this step, since the terminal receives the current power level of at least one replaceable power source that can be used by the user from the at least one charging device, and the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power source to reach a preset power level from the current power level, the terminal can display the at least one replaceable power source and the estimated remaining charging time corresponding to the replaceable power source.

[0126] In other embodiments, other information such as the current power level, preset power level, location, identifier, storage medium, and parameters of the charging device to which the replaceable power supply is located may also be displayed.

[0127] As can be seen from the above, the estimated remaining charging time sent by the charging device can be received directly. In other embodiments, the terminal can calculate the estimated remaining charging time after receiving the power data of the replaceable power source sent by the charging device. For details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating another method for displaying power information in the power reservation method provided in this disclosure. For example... Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0128] S401: Based on the current location information, determine at least one charging device set up in the target area where the user is located for charging the placed power source.

[0129] S402: Receive the current power level of at least one replaceable power source that can be used by the user, sent by the at least one charging device.

[0130] S403: Determine the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach a preset charging level from its current charge level.

[0131] In this step, after receiving the current power level of the replaceable power supply sent by the charging device, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset power level from the current power level can be determined by combining the preset power level.

[0132] Specifically, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach a preset charging level from its current charge level can be obtained based on its own charging information. Alternatively, the estimated remaining charging time can be obtained by combining the historical charging information of the replaceable power supply, or by using model algorithms, etc.

[0133] Accordingly, in some possible implementations, determining the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach a preset charging level from its current charge includes:

[0134] Determine the estimated charging amount by which the replaceable power supply reaches the preset power level from the current power level;

[0135] Based on the estimated charging amount of the replaceable power supply and the charging information for charging the replaceable power supply, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset charging capacity is calculated.

[0136] In this step, after obtaining the current power level of the replaceable power supply, the estimated charging amount of the replaceable power supply from the current power level to the preset power level can be obtained by combining the preset power level. Then, charging information is generated based on the replaceable power supply, including but not limited to the charging voltage, charging current, and charging power of the replaceable power supply. Based on the capacity calculation formula, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset power level is calculated.

[0137] For example, after obtaining the current charge Q1 of the replaceable power supply, the estimated charge Q3 can be obtained by combining it with the preset charge Q2, where Q3 = Q2 - Q1. At the same time, the estimated remaining charging time t can be obtained based on the charging current I of the replaceable power supply, where t = Q3 / I.

[0138] It should be noted that this is only an example of a constant current. If the current changes, such as a non-constant current, the estimated remaining charging time can be obtained by dividing the non-constant current into multiple intervals and then combining the multiple intervals.

[0139] Furthermore, to reduce deviations caused by charging equipment losses and substandard power factors, a compensation coefficient α can be established for the replaceable power supply, resulting in the estimated remaining charging time t, where t = Q3 / I + α. Here, the compensation coefficient can be calculated based on the transformer capacity or the power load; no specific limitation is imposed.

[0140] It is understood that the compensation coefficient is calculated based on the charging information of the replaceable power supply. In order to ensure the accuracy and practicality of the compensation coefficient, the compensation coefficient can be updated periodically or in real time when the charging information of the replaceable power supply is updated.

[0141] As can be seen from the above, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach a preset charging level from its current charge level can be obtained based on the charging information of the replaceable power supply itself. In other embodiments, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply can also be obtained by combining the historical charging information of the replaceable power supply.

[0142] Specifically, in some possible implementations, determining the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach a preset charging level from its current charge level includes:

[0143] Obtain at least one set of historical charging information for the replaceable power supply, the historical charging information including the historical starting charge level, the historical ending charge level, and the historical estimated charging time from the historical starting charge level to the historical ending charge level.

[0144] Based on the historical estimated charging time, the estimated charging time corresponding to the historical charging information is determined.

[0145] Using the current power level and the preset power level, the target historical charging information is determined by matching it with the historical charging start power level and the historical charging end power level from at least one set of historical charging information. The target historical charging start power level and the target historical charging end power level corresponding to the target historical charging information are consistent with the current power level and the preset power level, respectively.

[0146] The target estimated charging time corresponding to the target historical charging information is determined as the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset power level.

[0147] In this step, at least one set of historical charging information of the replaceable power supply can be obtained. Here, the historical charging information includes the historical starting charge level, the historical ending charge level, and the historical estimated charging time from the historical starting charge level to the historical ending charge level of the replaceable power supply.

[0148] Then, for at least one set of historical charging information, clustering can be performed according to the historical charging start power and historical charging end power. At least one set of historical charging information with the same historical charging start power and historical charging end power is identified as a class of historical charging information. For each class of historical charging information, the estimated charging time corresponding to each class of historical charging information can be obtained based on the historical estimated charging time indicated by each class of historical charging information.

[0149] Optionally, the historical charging information may also include historical charging start SOC, historical charging end SOC, historical charging start voltage, historical charging end voltage, etc. Specifically, the historical charging start voltage may be the historical charging start single-cell voltage, the historical charging start single-cell voltage highest voltage, the historical charging start single-cell voltage lowest voltage, the historical charging start total voltage, or the voltage after relevant calculations, etc. Similarly, the historical charging end voltage may be the historical charging end single-cell voltage, the historical charging end single-cell voltage highest voltage, the historical charging end single-cell voltage lowest voltage, the historical charging end total voltage, or the voltage after relevant calculations, etc.

[0150] It is understood that in order to obtain the historical estimated charging time, the historical estimated charging time can be obtained based on the historical starting charge and the historical ending charge, or based on the historical starting SOC and the historical ending SOC, or based on the historical starting voltage and the historical ending voltage.

[0151] Here, if the historical estimated charging time is obtained from the historical starting charge and the historical ending charge, or if the historical estimated charging time is obtained from the historical starting SOC and the historical ending SOC, it can be calculated using t = Q / I.

[0152] Preferably, in order to facilitate the rapid determination of historical estimated charging time, for each set of historical charging information, the historical charging start voltage, the historical charging end voltage, and the historical estimated charging time from the historical charging start voltage to the historical charging end voltage can be recorded in the historical charging information.

[0153] Optionally, if the historical charging information records the historical charging start voltage and the historical charging end voltage, but does not include the historical estimated charging time from the historical charging start voltage to the historical charging end voltage, the historical charging start voltage and the historical charging end voltage can be converted into the form of SOC first, that is, the historical charging start SOC and the historical charging end SOC are obtained, and then the historical estimated charging time is calculated based on the charging current or charging power by using t = Q / I.

[0154] The charging current can be obtained by looking up a table based on the relationship between charging current and temperature, SOC, or voltage.

[0155] The charging power can be obtained by looking up a table based on the relationship between charging power and temperature, SOC, or voltage.

[0156] For example, when three sets of historical charging information are obtained, historical charging information 1 includes historical charging start SOC 20%, historical charging end SOC 100%, and historical estimated charging time 60 minutes; historical charging information 2 includes historical charging start SOC 20%, historical charging end SOC 100%, and historical estimated charging time 66 minutes; and historical charging information 3 includes historical charging start SOC 50%, historical charging end SOC 80%, and historical estimated charging time 30 minutes. Then, historical charging information 1 and historical charging information 2, which have the same historical charging start and historical charging end SOC, can be classified into one category, and historical charging information 3 can be classified into another category. For historical charging information 1 and historical charging information 2, their corresponding estimated charging time can be the average of 60 minutes and 66 minutes, which is 63 minutes. For historical charging information 3, its corresponding estimated charging time is 30 minutes.

[0157] By analogy, a record table can be obtained for each replaceable power supply, and the record table can record the data shown in Table 1 below:

[0158] Table 1

[0159]

[0160] Here, t1 to t16 represent the estimated charging times corresponding to historical charging information.

[0161] It is understandable that, for historical charging information where the initial SOC was 0 and the final SOC was 100%, the corresponding estimated charging time is t13.

[0162] Furthermore, to facilitate calculations, a universal record table corresponding to multiple replaceable power supplies can be obtained by integrating the record tables of each replaceable power supply.

[0163] Next, the current power level and the preset power level can be matched with the historical charging start power level and the historical charging end power level to determine the target historical charging information from at least one set of historical charging information. Here, the target historical charging start power level and the target historical charging end power level corresponding to the target historical charging information are consistent with the current power level and the preset power level, respectively. Then, the target estimated charging time corresponding to the target historical charging information can be determined, and the target estimated charging time is determined as the estimated remaining charging time corresponding to the replaceable power supply.

[0164] Similarly, in order to reduce deviations caused by charging equipment losses and substandard power factors, the compensation coefficient corresponding to the target historical charging information can also be obtained here.

[0165] Specifically, in some possible implementations, the historical charging information includes the actual historical charging time from the historical starting charge level to the historical ending charge level;

[0166] After determining the target estimated charging time corresponding to the target historical charging information, the method further includes:

[0167] For the target historical actual charging time and target estimated charging time corresponding to the target historical charging information, determine the time deviation between the target historical actual charging time and the target estimated charging time;

[0168] The time deviation is determined as the target time compensation coefficient corresponding to the target historical charging start power and the target historical charging end power;

[0169] Based on the target time compensation coefficient and the target estimated charging time, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset power level is calculated.

[0170] In this step, for at least one set of historical charging information of the replaceable power supply, the historical charging information also includes the historical actual charging time from the historical charging start power to the historical charging end power. For the target historical charging information, the time deviation between the target historical actual charging time and the target estimated charging time can be determined by its corresponding target historical actual charging time and target estimated charging time. Then, the time deviation is determined as the target time compensation coefficient corresponding to the target historical charging start power and the target historical charging end power. Based on the target time compensation coefficient and the target estimated charging time, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset power is calculated.

[0171] For example, after obtaining the target estimated charging time t1 corresponding to a certain historical charging information, based on its corresponding target historical actual charging time t2, the time deviation t3 between the target historical actual charging time t2 and the target estimated charging time t1 can be obtained. It should be noted that the target historical actual charging time here is not the actual charging time in this case. t3 is used as the corresponding target time compensation coefficient β, and then the estimated remaining charging time t4 is obtained, t4 = t1 + β.

[0172] It is understood that after the charging information of the replaceable power supply is updated, its corresponding target estimated charging time and historical actual charging time will also change. Therefore, the target event compensation coefficient can be dynamically updated based on the historical charging information and the latest charging information of the replaceable power supply.

[0173] S404: The terminal displays the at least one replaceable power source and the estimated remaining charging time corresponding to the replaceable power source.

[0174] Please also refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a power information display interface provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, taking the user's input of a preset battery level of 100% as an example, the terminal can display at least one replaceable power source with a target battery level of 100% and information about the replaceable power source (the three in the figure are just examples). Specifically, it can display the current battery level, target battery level, estimated remaining charging time, and other information. The other information may include identification, charging power, discharging power, charging and discharging current and / or voltage, location, storage medium, and parameters of the charging device, etc. There are no limitations on this, so that the user can select a target power source suitable for their personal trip from at least one replaceable power source based on the displayed information.

[0175] The descriptions of steps S401 and S404 can refer to the descriptions of steps S301 and S303, and can achieve the same technical effect and solve the same technical problem, so they will not be repeated here.

[0176] Following S202 and S203 above: In response to the user's reservation operation for a target power source among the at least one replaceable power source based on the estimated remaining charging time, reservation lock information for the target power source is sent to the target charging device of the target power source so that the target charging device can set the target power source to a locked state.

[0177] In practical applications, users can make a reservation for a target power source among the at least one replaceable power source based on the estimated remaining charging time and their personal travel needs. Here, the reservation operation can be the selection of a target power source. In response to the user's selection of a power source among the at least one replaceable power source, the selected power source is determined as the target power source, thereby generating reservation lock information for the target power source and sending the reservation lock information to the target charging device of the target power source.

[0178] The reservation lock information may include the terminal's device information and the target power source's basic battery parameters, estimated remaining charging time, and identifier.

[0179] Furthermore, when the target charging device receives the reservation lock information for the target power source in the charging device sent by the terminal, the target power source can be set to a locked state.

[0180] In other implementations, after selecting the target power source, the user can also input the expected power borrowing time. During the expected power borrowing time, the target power source remains locked, meaning that the target power source can only be used by the user.

[0181] Here, to help users quickly determine their target power source, a suitable power source can be recommended to the user based on the estimated remaining charging time.

[0182] Specifically, in some possible implementations, before sending reservation lock information for the target power source to the target charging device of the target power source in response to the user's reservation operation for the target power source based on the estimated remaining charging time, the method includes:

[0183] Based on the location information of each of the replaceable power sources and the current location information, the estimated travel time for the user to reach the location of each of the replaceable power sources is determined;

[0184] A recommended power source is determined from the at least one replaceable power source to be recommended to the user, wherein the estimated remaining charging time corresponding to the recommended power source is less than or equal to the expected travel time;

[0185] The recommended power supply is displayed to the user.

[0186] In this step, the location information of each of the replaceable power sources can be obtained. Here, the location information may include the location information of the charging device where the replaceable power source is located, that is, the location information may include the location of the replaceable power source. Then, based on the current location information, the distance between the current location and the location of each replaceable power source can be obtained. Combined with the current road conditions, the estimated travel time for the user to reach the location of each replaceable power source can be obtained. By comparing the estimated travel time and the estimated remaining charging time, a recommended power source is determined from at least one replaceable power source whose estimated remaining charging time is less than or equal to the estimated travel time. The recommended power source is then displayed to the user through the terminal.

[0187] Here, the recommended power supply can be one or more, and no limitation is made.

[0188] In other embodiments, the replacement power supply with the shortest expected travel time among the various replacement power supplies can be determined as the recommended power supply to be recommended to the user.

[0189] In other embodiments, the estimated remaining charging time of each of the replaceable power supplies can be compared, and the replaceable power supply corresponding to the shortest estimated remaining charging time can be determined as the recommended power supply to be recommended to the user.

[0190] In other embodiments, the replaceable power source corresponding to the estimated remaining charging time that is closest to the expected travel time can be identified as the recommended power source to be recommended to the user, effectively reducing the waiting time for the user after arriving at the charging equipment.

[0191] For example, if there are three replaceable power sources, and the distance 1 between the current location and the location of replaceable power source 1 is 100m, with an estimated remaining charging time of 15min; the distance 2 between the current location and the location of replaceable power source 2 is 500m, with an estimated remaining charging time of 5min; and the distance 3 between the current location and the location of replaceable power source 3 is 200m, with an estimated remaining charging time of 10min, then, considering the current road conditions, the estimated travel time required for the user to reach power source location 1, power source location 2, and power source location 3 from the current location can be determined. After comparison, it is found that although power source location 1 is closer to the current location than the current location... The distance between the locations is the shortest, but its estimated travel time is much shorter than the estimated remaining charging time. This means that after arriving at power location 1, the user may have to wait for the replaceable power supply to finish charging. The distance between power location 2 and the current location is relatively far, and its estimated travel time is much shorter than the estimated remaining charging time. This means that the replaceable power supply will remain idle for a period of time after it finishes charging, resulting in wasted resources. The distance between power location 3 and the current location is moderate, and its estimated travel time is close to the estimated remaining charging time. Therefore, the replaceable power supply 3 can be recommended as the power source and presented to the user.

[0192] In some possible implementations, the power consumption of the user corresponding to the terminal can be used as a basis. As mentioned above, the power consumption of the user may refer to the remaining battery power of the vehicle used by the user. Therefore, the remaining battery usage time of the user can be determined by combining the user's vehicle usage information. Then, a recommended power source to be recommended to the user can be determined from the at least one replaceable power source. Here, the estimated remaining charging time of the recommended power source is less than or equal to the remaining battery usage time, and then the recommended power source is displayed to the user.

[0193] In other embodiments, the replaceable power source corresponding to the estimated remaining charging time that is greater than the remaining battery usage time and is closest to the remaining battery usage time can be identified as the recommended power source to be recommended to the user, effectively reducing the waiting time for the user after arriving at the charging equipment.

[0194] Furthermore, in some possible implementations, if the user is received to perform a preset operation on the recommended power supply, it is determined that the user has performed a reservation operation on the target power supply among the at least one replaceable power supply, and the recommended power supply is identified as the target power supply.

[0195] Please also refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a power reservation process provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 6 As shown in the diagram, taking a user's use of a power-borrowing application on a terminal as an example, after detecting that the user has opened the application, the terminal's current location information can be obtained. Based on this location information, the terminal displays at least one replaceable power source available to the user, along with the estimated remaining charging time for that power source to reach a preset charge level. The user can view the available power source, its estimated remaining charging time, its identifier, and basic battery parameters. The user can verify the existence of a replaceable power source that meets their travel needs. If a replacement power source exists, in response to the user's reservation operation for that target power source (which may include the user's expected borrowing time), the terminal can send a reservation lock information to the target charging device. The target charging device then locks the target power source. While the target power source is locked, the user can go to the charging device where the target power source is located and complete the borrowing process. If no power source exists, the user can continue to view information about replaceable power sources to find one that meets their needs.

[0196] The electricity reservation method provided in this embodiment is applied to a terminal in a power charging management system. The power charging management system includes a terminal and at least one charging device capable of communicating with the terminal. The charging device is used to place and charge the power source. When the power consumption of the user corresponding to the terminal meets the preset power consumption conditions, the current location information of the terminal is obtained, and the terminal displays at least one replaceable power source available for the user, as well as the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power source to reach the preset power level. In response to the user's reservation operation for a target power source among the at least one replaceable power source based on the estimated remaining charging time, the reservation lock information for the target power source is sent to the target charging device of the target power source, so that the charging device can set the target power source to a locked state. By providing the user with the estimated remaining charging time, the user can more accurately and quickly determine a suitable target power source by combining the estimated remaining charging time with travel plans, thereby flexibly arranging the electricity reservation time, improving the efficiency of electricity reservation and use, and enhancing the convenience of user travel.

[0197] Furthermore, after the user makes a reservation for the target power source, the reservation lock information for the target power source is sent to the target charging device so that the charging device can set the target power source to a locked state, ensuring that the target power source is used only by the user, reducing the possibility of conflicts between the user and others, and enabling the power source to be used reasonably, flexibly and effectively.

[0198] Those skilled in the art will understand that, in the above-described method of the specific implementation, the order in which each step is written does not imply a strict execution order and does not constitute any limitation on the implementation process. The specific execution order of each step should be determined by its function and possible internal logic.

[0199] Based on the same inventive concept, this disclosure also provides a terminal corresponding to the electricity reservation method. Since the principle of the terminal in this disclosure is similar to the electricity reservation method described above, the implementation of the terminal can refer to the implementation of the method, and the repeated parts will not be described again.

[0200] Please see Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 This is one of the schematic diagrams of a terminal provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 8 This is a second schematic diagram of a terminal provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. For example... Figure 7 As shown in the embodiments of this disclosure, the terminal 700 includes:

[0201] The acquisition module 710 is used to acquire the current location information of the terminal when the power consumption of the user corresponding to the terminal meets the preset power consumption conditions.

[0202] The display module 720 is used to display, based on the current location information, at least one replaceable power source that can be used by the user, and the estimated remaining charging time of the replaceable power source to reach a preset power level through the terminal.

[0203] The sending module 730 is configured to, in response to a reservation operation performed by the user for a target power source among the at least one replaceable power sources based on the estimated remaining charging time, send reservation lock information for the target power source to the target charging device of the target power source, so that the target charging device sets the target power source to a locked state.

[0204] In one optional implementation, the display module 720 is specifically used for:

[0205] Based on the current location information, at least one charging device is determined in the target area where the user is located, which is used to charge the placed power source.

[0206] The system receives the current power level of at least one replaceable power source that can be used by the user, sent by the at least one charging device, and the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power source to reach a preset power level from the current power level. The estimated remaining charging time is determined by the charging device based on the current power level, the preset power level, and charging information for charging the replaceable power source.

[0207] The terminal displays the at least one replaceable power source and the estimated remaining charging time corresponding to the replaceable power source.

[0208] In an optional implementation, the display module 720 is further configured to:

[0209] Receive the current power level of at least one replaceable power source that can be used by the user, sent by the at least one charging device;

[0210] Determine the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach a preset charging level from its current charge level.

[0211] In one optional implementation, when determining the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach a preset charging level from its current charge level, the display module 720 is specifically used for:

[0212] Determine the estimated charging amount by which the replaceable power supply reaches the preset power level from the current power level;

[0213] Based on the estimated charging amount of the replaceable power supply and the charging information for charging the replaceable power supply, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset charging capacity is calculated.

[0214] In one optional implementation, when determining the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach a preset charging level from its current charge level, the display module 720 is specifically used for:

[0215] Obtain at least one set of historical charging information for the replaceable power supply, the historical charging information including the historical starting charge level, the historical ending charge level, and the historical estimated charging time from the historical starting charge level to the historical ending charge level.

[0216] Based on the historical estimated charging time, the estimated charging time corresponding to the historical charging information is determined.

[0217] Using the current power level and the preset power level, the target historical charging information is determined by matching it with the historical charging start power level and the historical charging end power level from at least one set of historical charging information. The target historical charging start power level and the target historical charging end power level corresponding to the target historical charging information are consistent with the current power level and the preset power level, respectively.

[0218] The target estimated charging time corresponding to the target historical charging information is determined as the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset power level.

[0219] In one optional implementation, the historical charging information includes the actual historical charging time from the historical charging start level to the historical charging end level;

[0220] The display module 720 is also used for:

[0221] For the target historical actual charging time and target estimated charging time corresponding to the target historical charging information, determine the time deviation between the target historical actual charging time and the target estimated charging time;

[0222] The time deviation is determined as the target time compensation coefficient corresponding to the target historical charging start power and the target historical charging end power;

[0223] Based on the target time compensation coefficient and the target estimated charging time, the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power supply to reach the preset power level is calculated.

[0224] In one alternative implementation, such as Figure 8 As shown, the terminal also includes a recommendation module 740, which is used for:

[0225] Based on the location information of each of the replaceable power sources and the current location information, the estimated travel time for the user to reach the location of each of the replaceable power sources is determined;

[0226] A recommended power source is determined from the at least one replaceable power source to be recommended to the user, wherein the estimated remaining charging time corresponding to the recommended power source is less than or equal to the expected travel time;

[0227] The recommended power supply is displayed to the user.

[0228] In one optional implementation, the recommendation module 740 is specifically used for:

[0229] Based on the power consumption of the user corresponding to the terminal, the remaining power usage time of the user is determined;

[0230] A recommended power source is determined from the at least one replaceable power source to be recommended to the user, wherein the estimated remaining charging time corresponding to the recommended power source is less than or equal to the remaining power usage time;

[0231] The recommended power supply is displayed to the user.

[0232] In one optional implementation, the sending module 730 is configured to determine, through the following steps, that the user has applied a reservation operation for a target power source among the at least one replaceable power source:

[0233] If the system receives a message that the user has performed a preset operation on the recommended power supply, it determines that the user has performed a reservation operation on the target power supply among the at least one replaceable power supply, and identifies the recommended power supply as the target power supply.

[0234] The processing flow of each module in the device and the interaction flow between each module can be referred to the relevant descriptions in the above method embodiments, and will not be detailed here.

[0235] The terminal provided in this embodiment obtains the terminal's current location information when the user's power consumption meets preset power conditions. It then displays at least one replaceable power source available for the user, along with the estimated remaining charging time for the replaceable power source to reach the preset power level. In response to a user's reservation operation for a target power source among the at least one replaceable power source based on the estimated remaining charging time, the terminal sends a reservation lock information for the target power source to the target charging device. This allows the charging device to lock the target power source. By providing the user with an estimated remaining charging time, the user can more accurately and quickly determine a suitable target power source by combining the estimated remaining charging time with their travel plans. This allows for flexible scheduling of power borrowing, improving power efficiency and enhancing user travel convenience.

[0236] Furthermore, after the user makes a reservation for the target power source, the reservation lock information for the target power source is sent to the target charging device so that the charging device can set the target power source to a locked state, ensuring that the target power source is used only by the user, reducing the possibility of conflicts between the user and others, and enabling the power source to be used reasonably, flexibly and effectively.
