[0002] With the rapid development of automotive technology, vehicles are becoming increasingly intelligent, such as the scheduled charging function.

[0003] In this technology, after a user activates the scheduled charging function, they cannot charge their vehicle outside the designated time frame. In scenarios like commuting to work, when a user needs to use a company charging station, the scheduled charging function requires them to manually disable it to charge immediately. Upon returning home, they need to reactivate the scheduled charging function to ensure the vehicle can be charged at home. This charging method is cumbersome and prone to user forgetfulness, leading to charging failures and disrupting their daily commute. Summary of the Invention

[0064] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this application, the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments and drawings described herein are merely for explaining this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0065] It should be noted that the user information (including but not limited to user device information, user personal information, etc.) and data (including but not limited to data used for analysis, data stored, data displayed, etc.) involved in this application are all information and data authorized by the user or fully authorized by all parties. Furthermore, the collection, use and processing of the relevant data must comply with relevant laws, regulations and standards, and corresponding operation entry points are provided for users to choose to authorize or refuse.

[0066] With the rapid development of automotive technology, vehicles are becoming increasingly intelligent, such as scheduled charging. Scheduled charging allows users to set their vehicles to charge within a preset timeframe, specifying the start and end times, which can save on charging costs to some extent.

[0067] In related technologies, when a vehicle's scheduled charging function is activated, if the time is outside the scheduled charging period and the user wants to charge the vehicle again, the user needs to deactivate the scheduled charging function before the vehicle can enter the plug-in charging state. Furthermore, in scenarios such as commuting to work, after the vehicle finishes charging at home, the user drives to the office and wants to use the company's charging station. Due to the limitations of the scheduled charging function, the user must manually deactivate it to achieve plug-in charging. If the user deactivates the scheduled charging function and then drives home after get off work, they need to reactivate it to ensure they can schedule charging at home. Thus, the vehicle charging methods in these technologies require users to frequently activate or deactivate the scheduled charging function, which is cumbersome and prone to user oversight leading to charging failures and disruptions to normal commuting, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0068] In this embodiment, the vehicle's scheduled charging function is bound to a target charging station, meaning that scheduled charging is effective only for a specific target charging station. The vehicle can compare the characteristic information of the current charging station with the target characteristic information of the target charging station to determine if the current charging station is the target charging station. If so, and the scheduled charging function is enabled, the vehicle can schedule charging based on the target charging station. If not, the vehicle can determine that the current charging station is not the target charging station and can perform instant charging based on the current charging station, achieving plug-and-charge functionality. Thus, when the scheduled charging function is enabled, the vehicle can determine whether to perform scheduled charging or instant charging through the process of determining whether the current charging station is the target charging station, eliminating the need for frequent on / off operations of the scheduled charging function. This improves the convenience of the user's charging process, simplifies the user's operation, and ensures normal charging replenishment.

[0069] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating an application scenario provided in an embodiment of this application. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 This includes vehicle 101, user 102, and target charging station 103. For example... Figure 1 As shown in the related technology, user 102 can activate the scheduled charging function of vehicle 101 at home to schedule charging; when user 102 uses a public charging station at the company, the scheduled charging function of vehicle 101 needs to be turned off to achieve plug-and-charge. This charging method is relatively cumbersome for users and is prone to charging failure due to user negligence, affecting the user's normal travel.

[0070] In this embodiment, the scheduled charging function of vehicle 101 is bound to the target charging pile 103, meaning the scheduled charging function only applies to the target charging pile 103. When user 102 charges at a different charging pile (i.e., a non-target charging pile) in a company setting, the scheduled charging function does not apply, allowing for plug-and-charge functionality. This simplifies user operations by eliminating the need for frequent activation or deactivation of the scheduled charging function while ensuring normal charging of the vehicle.

[0071] The following detailed description of the solution presented in this application is provided through specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following embodiments may exist independently or in combination with each other; identical or similar content will not be repeated in different embodiments.

[0072] Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a vehicle charging method provided in an embodiment of this application. Please refer to... Figure 2 The vehicle charging method may include:

[0073] S201. Obtain the feature information corresponding to the current charging pile; the feature information includes at least one of the following: identification information, environmental information, and location information.

[0074] The executing entity in this application embodiment can be a vehicle, specifically an intelligent controller or intelligent charging system within the vehicle, or a vehicle charging device installed in the vehicle. This vehicle charging device can be implemented through software or a combination of software and hardware. For ease of understanding, the following description will use a vehicle as the executing entity.

[0075] In this embodiment, the current charging pile can refer to the charging pile corresponding to the parking space where the vehicle is currently located. Feature information can refer to various specific identification information corresponding to the current charging pile. This feature information can include at least one of identification information, environmental information, and location information. Identification information can refer to the name, code, or ID of the charging pile. Environmental information can refer to various environmental features in the actual scene surrounding the vehicle when it uses the current charging pile. Specifically, it can include information about landmarks such as signs and buildings, information about surrounding scenery and object materials, and information about ambient sound. This embodiment does not limit the specific types of environmental information. Location information can refer to the vehicle's geographical location information when it uses the current charging pile, such as the real-time geographical location determined by the Global Positioning System (GPS). It should be noted that the feature information of the current charging pile can include one, two, or three of the identification information, environmental information, and location information. Of course, the feature information can also include other types of information, or the above-mentioned feature information can specifically include other content. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0076] In this step, after the user parks the vehicle in the parking space, the vehicle can obtain the feature information corresponding to the current charging pile in the current parking space. Subsequently, it can determine whether the current charging pile is the target charging pile based on the comparison of this feature information with the target feature information. Of course, the vehicle can also obtain the feature information of the current charging pile after detecting the plug-in signal, which can save computing resources, etc. The plug-in signal can refer to the signal of the user inserting the charging gun, and this application embodiment does not limit it to this.

[0077] S202. If the feature information does not match the target feature information, determine that the current charging pile is not the target charging pile, and start charging immediately based on the current charging pile; the target charging pile is the charging pile corresponding to the scheduled charging function.

[0078] In this embodiment, the target charging pile can refer to the charging pile to which the scheduled charging function applies, i.e., the charging pile bound to the scheduled charging function. The target feature information can refer to the feature information corresponding to the target charging pile. Specifically, the user can pre-configure the target charging pile bound to the scheduled charging function in the vehicle, so that the scheduled charging function only applies to the target charging pile. After the user specifies the target charging pile corresponding to the scheduled charging function, the vehicle can obtain and store the target feature information corresponding to the target charging pile, which can then be compared and verified later.

[0079] Specifically, after obtaining the feature information of the current charging station, the vehicle can compare this information with the target charging station's feature information. If the feature information of the current charging station does not match the target charging station's feature information, the vehicle can determine that the current charging station is not the target charging station, and the vehicle can immediately start charging based on the current charging station, achieving normal charging and energy replenishment. In this way, when the scheduled charging function is activated, the vehicle only performs scheduled charging for the target charging station bound to the scheduled charging function. For other charging stations, it can achieve plug-and-charge, eliminating the need for users to manually and frequently turn the scheduled charging function on or off, thus improving the convenience of user charging operations.

[0080] The vehicle charging method provided in this application embodiment involves the vehicle acquiring feature information corresponding to the current charging pile. The feature information includes at least one of identification information, environmental information, and location information. If the feature information does not match the target feature information, the vehicle determines that the current charging pile is not the target charging pile and performs immediate charging based on the current charging pile. The target charging pile is the charging pile corresponding to the scheduled charging function. In this application, the vehicle acquires the feature information corresponding to the current charging pile and compares it with the target feature information. If they do not match, the vehicle can determine that the current charging pile is not the target charging pile specified by the scheduled charging function, and the vehicle can directly perform immediate charging. This binds the scheduled charging function to the target charging pile, making the scheduled charging function effective only for the target charging pile. For other charging piles, the vehicle can achieve plug-and-charge functionality. Users do not need to frequently operate to turn the scheduled charging function on or off, simplifying user operations, increasing scenario applicability, ensuring normal charging and replenishment of the vehicle, guaranteeing user travel, and improving the user experience.

[0081] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 3 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating another vehicle charging method provided in an embodiment of this application. Please refer to... Figure 3 The vehicle charging method may include:

[0082] S301, in response to the user's configuration operation for the scheduled charging function, obtains the identification information of the alternative charging pile corresponding to the current parking space and displays the identification information on the display screen.

[0083] In this embodiment, the configuration operation refers to the user's personalized configuration operation for the scheduled charging function, such as setting a specific target charging station. The specific operation type of this configuration operation can be a user's touch operation, physical button press operation, or voice input operation, etc. This embodiment does not limit the specific type of configuration operation. The alternative charging station can refer to the charging station corresponding to the vehicle's current parking space. The display screen can refer to the screen corresponding to the display module in the vehicle. The identification information can refer to the identification of the alternative charging station, such as the name or ID number of the alternative charging station.

[0084] In this step, when the user needs to configure the vehicle's scheduled charging function, they can perform a configuration operation. In response to the user's configuration operation, the vehicle can scan and obtain the identification information of the alternative charging piles around the current parking space through a near-field communication module such as a Bluetooth module, and display the identification information on the vehicle's display screen.

[0085] S302, In response to the user's selection operation on the identification information, determine the target charging pile corresponding to the scheduled charging function.

[0086] In this embodiment, the selection operation refers to the user's selection of a target charging station. Specific operation types typically include touch operation, physical button pressing, or voice input, etc., and this embodiment does not limit this. After the vehicle displays the identification information of the available charging stations on the screen, the user can perform a selection operation. In response to the user's selection, the vehicle can determine the target charging station corresponding to the user's selected scheduled charging function. In this way, users can configure the target charging station bound to the scheduled charging function to meet their personalized needs and improve the user experience.

[0087] S303. Determine the identification information corresponding to the target charging pile as the target identification information; and / or, collect the environmental information corresponding to the vehicle in the current parking space to obtain the target environmental information; and / or, determine the location information corresponding to the vehicle in the current parking space to obtain the target location information.

[0088] S304. Generate target feature information based on target identification information, target environment information and / or target location information.

[0089] In this embodiment, after the vehicle identifies the target charging station corresponding to the user-selected scheduled charging function, it can further determine the target feature information corresponding to the target charging station. This target feature information may include at least one of target identification information, target environment information, and target location information. Specifically, the target identification information may refer to the identification information corresponding to the target charging station, which the vehicle can obtain by scanning using a near-field communication module. The target environment information may refer to the surrounding environment feature information when the vehicle is parked in the current parking space corresponding to the target charging station; the vehicle can scan the surrounding environment information through a self-driving module or intelligent module, specifically by collecting image data through various radars or sensors, establishing a scene feature model corresponding to the target charging station, and determining the target environment information corresponding to the target charging station. The target location information may refer to the location information when the vehicle is parked in the current parking space corresponding to the target charging station; the vehicle can obtain the target location information through a vehicle positioning module or a vehicle GPS module.

[0090] It should be noted that the target feature information may also include other information, or the above-mentioned target feature information may be determined in other ways, and the embodiments of this application do not limit this.

[0091] S305. Store the target feature information in a preset database; the preset database includes at least one target charging pile and the target feature information corresponding to the target charging pile.

[0092] In this embodiment, the preset database may refer to a pre-configured database related to the vehicle's scheduled charging function, which may store at least one target charging pile corresponding to the scheduled charging function and the target feature information corresponding to each charging pile. This preset database may be stored locally on the vehicle to improve data acquisition speed, or it may be stored in the cloud to reduce local storage pressure. This embodiment does not limit the storage method of the preset database.

[0093] In this step, the number of target charging stations in the preset database can be one or more. This allows users to set multiple target charging stations suitable for the scheduled charging function based on their actual needs, increasing the applicability of the vehicle's scheduled charging function and enhancing its flexibility. The vehicle stores the target charging station and its corresponding target feature information in the preset database. Subsequently, the feature information of the current charging station can be compared with this preset database to determine whether the current charging station is a target charging station. This improves the convenience of vehicle charging, eliminating the need for users to frequently turn the scheduled charging function on or off.

[0094] S306. Obtain the feature information corresponding to the current charging pile; the feature information includes at least one of the following: identification information, environmental information, and location information.

[0095] S307. If the feature information matches the target feature information, determine the current charging pile as the target charging pile; if the reservation charging function is enabled, make a reservation charging based on the target charging pile.

[0096] In this embodiment, after obtaining the feature information of the current charging station, the vehicle can compare and match the feature information with the target feature information. If they match, the vehicle can determine that the current charging station is the target charging station. Furthermore, when the scheduled charging function is enabled, the vehicle can schedule charging based on the target charging station. It should be noted that the user needs to enable the scheduled charging function to perform scheduled charging. Even if the current charging station is the target charging station, if the user has not enabled the scheduled charging function, the vehicle will still be in a plug-and-charge state and cannot perform scheduled charging.

[0097] In one possible implementation, the feature information includes identification information; whether the feature information matches the target feature information can be determined in the following way:

[0098] If the target identification information is the same as the target feature information, the feature information is determined to match the target feature information; the identification information is obtained by scanning the current charging pile based on the near-field communication module.

[0099] In this embodiment, if the feature information includes identification information, after the user parks the vehicle in the parking space corresponding to the current charging pile, the vehicle can scan the current charging pile through the near-field communication module to determine the identification information of the current charging pile. Then, the vehicle can compare and match this identification information with the target identification information in the target feature information. If the target identification information includes the identification information of the current charging pile, the vehicle can determine that the current charging pile is the target charging pile and can schedule charging when the scheduled charging function is enabled. If the target identification information does not include the identification information of the current charging pile, the vehicle can determine that the current charging pile is not the target charging pile and can perform plug-and-charge charging. In this way, by comparing the identification information, the vehicle can determine whether the current charging pile is the target charging pile, thus achieving the identification and determination of the target charging pile.

[0100] In another possible implementation, the feature information includes environmental information; whether the feature information matches the target feature information can be determined in the following way:

[0101] If the environmental information matches the target environmental information included in the target feature information, the feature information is determined to match the target feature information; the environmental information is obtained based on the vehicle's autonomous driving module scanning the surrounding environment.

[0102] In this embodiment, if the feature information includes environmental information, the vehicle can acquire scene images, videos, and other data around the vehicle through various radars and sensors in the vehicle's autonomous driving module, and then determine the environmental information corresponding to the current charging station through algorithms such as image feature extraction. The vehicle can determine the environmental information after the user parks the vehicle in the parking space corresponding to the current charging station, or after the vehicle detects the charging port signal; this embodiment does not limit this.

[0103] The vehicle then compares the environmental information corresponding to the current charging station with the target environmental information in the target feature information to determine the similarity between the environmental information and each target environmental information. If there is target environmental information in the preset database with a similarity greater than a preset similarity threshold (95%, 98%, etc., which can be flexibly set), the vehicle can determine that the environmental information of the current charging station matches the target environmental information, and the current charging station is the target charging station. When the scheduled charging function is enabled, scheduled charging can be performed. If there is no target environmental information in the preset database with a similarity greater than the preset similarity threshold, the vehicle can determine that the current charging station is not the target charging station, and plug-and-charge can proceed. In this way, the vehicle identifies and determines the target charging station based on the comparison and matching of environmental information, which can improve the accuracy of target charging station identification.

[0104] In another possible implementation, the feature information includes location information; whether the feature information matches the target feature information can be determined in the following way:

[0105] If the location information matches the target location information included in the target feature information, the feature information is determined to match the target feature information; the location information is obtained in real time based on the vehicle positioning module.

[0106] In this embodiment, if the feature information includes location information, the vehicle can detect its location in real time through the vehicle positioning module to obtain the location information corresponding to the current charging station. Similarly, the vehicle can determine its location information after the user parks the vehicle in the parking space corresponding to the current charging station, or after the vehicle detects the charging port signal; this embodiment does not limit this.

[0107] The vehicle then compares the location information of the current charging station with the target location information in the target feature information to determine the target distance between the current location and each target location. If a target location with a distance less than a preset threshold exists in the preset database (this threshold can be determined based on actual needs), the vehicle can determine that the current charging station matches the target location and is the target charging station, allowing for scheduled charging when the scheduled charging function is enabled. If no target location with a distance less than the preset threshold exists in the preset database, the vehicle can determine that the current charging station is not the target charging station and can proceed with plug-and-charge charging. This method of identifying target charging stations based on location information comparison further improves the accuracy and flexibility of target charging station identification.

[0108] In another possible implementation, the feature information includes identification information, environmental information, and location information. Specifically, whether the feature information matches the target feature information can be determined in the following way:

[0109] (1) If the target identification information does not match the target feature information, determine that the feature information does not match the target feature information.

[0110] (2) When the identification information matches the target identification information, determine the matching status of the environmental information and the target environmental information, and determine the matching status of the location information and the target location information.

[0111] (3) When the identification information matches the target identification information, the environmental information matches the target environmental information, and the location information matches the target location information, the feature information matches the target feature information.

[0112] In this embodiment, when the feature information includes identification information, environmental information, and location information, the priority of the identification information can be higher than the priority of the environmental information and the priority of the location information. Specifically, the vehicle can first obtain the identification information of the current charging pile and compare it with the target identification information. If the two do not match, the vehicle can directly determine that the feature information does not match the target feature information, and the current charging pile is not the target charging pile. The vehicle can then immediately start charging based on the current charging pile without needing to obtain the vehicle's environmental and location information again. This saves computing resources and reduces the computational load.

[0113] If the identification information matches the target identification information, the vehicle can further acquire environmental and location information, comparing the environmental information with the target environmental information and the location information with the target location information. If the identification information, environmental information, and location information all match, the vehicle can determine that the feature information matches the target feature information, and the current charging station is the target charging station. In this way, the vehicle performs secondary matching verification using environmental and location information, improving the accuracy of target charging station identification.

[0114] Of course, the priority setting of feature information in this embodiment can also be done in other ways, such as setting the location information as the highest priority. The specific settings can be flexibly set based on actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

If the feature information does not match the target feature information, determine that the current charging pile is not the target charging pile, and start charging immediately based on the current charging pile; the target charging pile is the charging pile corresponding to the scheduled charging function.

[0116] In this embodiment, if the feature information of the current charging pile does not match the target feature information in the preset database, the vehicle can directly charge instantly based on the current charging pile. In this embodiment, the vehicle applies the scheduled charging function to a specific target charging pile, and the charging process at other charging piles is not affected by the scheduled charging function. This improves the convenience of the user's charging operation, simplifies the user's operation, and ensures the normal charging and replenishment of the user's vehicle.

[0117] It should be noted that, in the various embodiments of this application, the order of the steps does not imply the order of execution. The execution order of each step should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of this application.

[0118] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 4 This is an interactive schematic diagram of a vehicle charging method provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 4 As shown, after a user parks their vehicle in a parking space, the vehicle's charging system can scan the current charging station via a near-field communication module to determine its identification information. The near-field communication module can then match and compare this identification information with target identification information to determine the matching result and feed it back to the vehicle's charging system. Alternatively, the scanning and identification process for the current charging station can also be performed after the vehicle is parked, triggered by the user inserting the charging gun. That is, the vehicle acquires the characteristic information of the current charging station only after detecting the insertion signal. This embodiment does not limit this approach.

[0119] The vehicle can also acquire environmental information about its surroundings through its autonomous driving module, compare this information with target environmental information, and then send the matching result back to the vehicle charging system. Furthermore, after detecting a charging port signal, the vehicle can acquire its location information through its positioning module, compare this location with target location information, and then send the matching result back to the vehicle charging system.

[0120] If the current charging station's characteristic information—identification information, environmental information, and location information—matches the target charging station's characteristic information, the vehicle charging system can determine that the current charging station is the target charging station. If the scheduled charging function is enabled, the vehicle charging system can schedule charging based on the target charging station. If any one or more of the current charging station's characteristic information does not match the target characteristic information, the vehicle charging system can determine that the current charging station is not the target charging station, and in this case, it can perform immediate charging based on the current charging station. In this way, by binding the vehicle's scheduled charging function to the target charging station, users can still plug in and charge at other charging stations even when the scheduled charging function is enabled, without having to frequently turn the scheduled charging function on and off, thus simplifying the user's charging operation.

[0121] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the configuration of a vehicle reservation charging function provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 5 As shown, in response to the user's configuration operation for the scheduled charging function, the vehicle charging system can scan and obtain the identification information of the alternative charging piles in the current parking space through the near-field communication module and display this identification information on the display screen. The user can then select the target charging pile corresponding to the scheduled charging function, and the vehicle charging system will determine the target charging pile in response to the user's selection. Subsequently, the vehicle charging system can obtain the environmental information of the surrounding scene of the current parking space through the vehicle's autonomous driving module to obtain the target environmental information corresponding to the target charging pile; simultaneously, it can obtain the location information of the current parking space through the vehicle positioning module to obtain the target location information corresponding to the target charging pile. The vehicle charging system can then store target feature information including target identification information, target environmental information, and target location information, and establish a preset database corresponding to the scheduled charging function.

[0122] In this embodiment, the vehicle associates and binds the scheduled charging function with the target charging pile, limiting the scheduled charging function to only take effect when the target charging pile is charging the vehicle, and not taking effect otherwise. This avoids users frequently turning the scheduled charging function on or off when charging the vehicle, improving the convenience of the user's charging process, simplifying the user's operation, and enhancing the user experience.
