[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] In the embodiments of the present application, "at least one" means one or more, and "more" means two or more. "And / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. In the text description of the present application, the character " / " generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0030] The technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the location detection scenario of the charging cable. Taking the location detection scenario of the charging cable of the charging pile as an example, with the gradual popularization of new energy vehicles, new energy charging piles are also popularized. For example, see Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the deployment of a charging pile provided in an embodiment of the present application assumes that three DC charging piles are deployed, namely DC charging pile 1, DC charging pile 2 and DC charging pile 3.

[0031] Among them, the DC charging pile 1 is equipped with charging gun 1 and charging gun 2. Charging gun 1 is used to charge the vehicle to be charged in charging parking space 1, and charging gun 2 is used to charge the vehicle to be charged in charging parking space 2; the DC charging pile 2 is installed with charging gun 3 and charging gun 4. Charging gun 3 is used to charge the vehicle to be charged in charging parking space 3, and charging gun 4 is used to charge the vehicle to be charged in charging parking space 4; the DC charging pile 3 is installed with charging gun 5 and charging gun 6. Charging gun 5 is used to charge the vehicle to be charged in charging parking space 5, and charging gun 6 is used to charge the vehicle to be charged in charging parking space 6.

[0032] Combination Figure 1 As shown, for any charging gun, after the charging personnel use the charging gun to charge the vehicle to be charged in the corresponding charging parking space, they may randomly discard it in the charging parking space, for example, charging parking space 1, for example, see Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The schematic diagram of a charging gun provided in an embodiment of the present application being discarded in a charging parking space 1 may cause the charging cable of the charging gun 1 to be easily crushed by other vehicles, resulting in damage to the charging cable of the charging gun 1, accelerating the failure of the charging cable, and thus shortening the service life of the charging cable.

[0033] In order to prevent the charging cable of the charging gun from being crushed by other vehicles, thereby extending the service life of the charging cable, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for detecting the position of the charging cable, which can detect the position of the charging cable of the charging pile after the charging gun is used to charge the vehicle to be charged in the corresponding charging parking space, so as to prevent the charging cable from being crushed by other vehicles. It can be understood that the execution subject of this method can be an electronic device such as a charging pile, a computer or a server, or a charging cable position detection device set in the electronic device, which can be implemented by software, hardware or a combination of the two, and can be set according to actual needs.

[0034] The following specific embodiments will be used to describe the charging cable position detection method provided by the present application in detail. It is understandable that the following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments.

[0035] Figure 3 A flow chart of a method for detecting the position of a charging cable provided in an embodiment of the present application, for example, see Figure 3 As shown, the charging cable position detection method may include: S301. Receive a first signal detection result sent by a first cable detection module corresponding to at least one charging gun, and a second signal detection result sent by a corresponding second cable detection module, wherein the first cable detection module is set at a charging parking space of the corresponding charging gun, and the second cable detection module is set at an allowed placement position of the corresponding charging gun.

[0036] For example, in the embodiment of the present application, a first cable detection module and a second cable detection module are correspondingly provided for one charging gun. The first cable detection module is provided at the charging parking space of the corresponding charging gun, and is used to perform signal detection at the charging parking space; the second cable detection module is provided at the allowed placement position of the corresponding charging gun, and is used to perform signal detection at the allowed placement position of the charging gun.

[0037] For example, see Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4A deployment diagram of a first cable detection module and a second cable detection module is provided for an embodiment of the present application. It is assumed that the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 1 can be recorded as a cable detection module 1-1, and the cable detection module 1-1 is arranged in the charging parking space 1 of the charging gun 1, and is used to perform signal detection in the charging parking space 1; the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 1 can be recorded as a cable detection module 2-1, and the cable detection module 2-1 is arranged in the allowed placement position of the charging gun 1, and is used to perform signal detection in the allowed placement position of the charging gun 1; the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 2 can be recorded as a cable detection module 1-2, and the cable detection module 1-2 The charging parking space 2 is arranged on the charging gun 2, and is used for performing signal detection in the charging parking space 2; the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 2 can be recorded as the cable detection module 2-2, and the cable detection module 2-2 is arranged at the allowed placement position of the charging gun 2, and is used for performing signal detection in the allowed placement position of the charging gun 2; the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 3 can be recorded as the cable detection module 1-3, and the cable detection module 1-3 is arranged at the charging parking space 3 of the charging gun 3, and is used for performing signal detection in the charging parking space 3; the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 3 can be recorded as the cable detection module 2-3, and the cable detection module 2-3 is arranged at the allowed placement position of the charging gun 3, Used to perform signal detection at the allowed placement position of the charging gun 3; the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 4 can be recorded as cable detection module 1-4, and the cable detection module 1-4 is set at the charging parking space 4 of the charging gun 4, and is used to perform signal detection at the charging parking space 4; the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 4 can be recorded as cable detection module 2-4, and the cable detection module 2-4 is set at the allowed placement position of the charging gun 4, and is used to perform signal detection at the allowed placement position of the charging gun 4; the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 5 can be recorded as cable detection module 1-5, and the cable detection module 1-5 is set at the charging parking space 5 of the charging gun 5, and is used to perform signal detection at the charging parking space 5 for signal detection; the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 5 can be recorded as a cable detection module 2-5, the cable detection module 2-5 is arranged at the allowed placement position of the charging gun 5, and is used to perform signal detection at the allowed placement position of the charging gun 5; the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 6 can be recorded as a cable detection module 1-6, the cable detection module 1-6 is arranged at the charging parking space 6 of the charging gun 6, and is used to perform signal detection at the charging parking space 6; the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun 6 can be recorded as a cable detection module 2-6, the cable detection module 2-6 is arranged at the allowed placement position of the charging gun 6, and is used to perform signal detection at the allowed placement position of the charging gun 6.

[0038] There will be a handshake connection when the charging pile is connected to the vehicle to be charged. When the charging pile and the vehicle to be charged are in a connected state, the first cable detection module and the second cable detection module are controlled without detecting the position of the charging cable; when the charging pile is disconnected from the vehicle to be charged, that is, after the charging gun is unplugged from the charging completed vehicle, the first cable detection module and the second cable detection module are controlled to detect the position of the charging cable, that is, for each charging gun, the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun is controlled to perform signal detection at its charging parking space to obtain a first signal detection result; the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun is controlled to perform signal detection at its allowed placement position to obtain a second signal detection result.

[0039] After receiving the first signal detection result sent by the first cable detection module corresponding to each charging gun and the second signal detection result sent by the corresponding second cable detection module, the following S302 may be executed.

[0040] S302: For each charging gun, based on the first signal detection result and the second signal detection result corresponding to the charging gun, detect the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun.

[0041] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, when the placement of the charging cable of the charging gun is detected, the first signal detection result sent by the first cable detection module corresponding to at least one charging gun and the second signal detection result sent by the corresponding second cable detection module can be received, the first cable detection module is set at the charging parking space of the corresponding charging gun, and the second cable detection module is set at the allowed placement position of the corresponding charging gun; for each charging gun, based on the first signal detection result and the second signal detection result corresponding to the charging gun, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun is detected. In this way, by setting the first cable detection module at the charging parking space of the charging gun and setting the second cable detection module at the allowed placement position of the charging gun, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun can be detected based on the first signal detection result corresponding to the charging gun detected by the first cable detection module and the second signal detection result corresponding to the charging gun detected by the second cable detection module, thereby realizing the detection of the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun.

[0042] Based on the above Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, for example, in the above S302, based on the first signal detection result and the second signal detection result corresponding to the charging gun, when detecting the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun, at least the following two possible scenarios may be included: In one possible scenario, for example, see Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 A schematic diagram of a signal detection situation of a first cable detection module and a second cable detection module provided in an embodiment of the present application can be combined with Figure 5 As shown in the second half of , it is assumed that the first signal detection result indicates that the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun does not detect a signal, and the second signal detection result indicates that the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun detects a signal.

[0043] In this possible scenario, given that the first signal detection result indicates that the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun has not detected a signal, it means that no charging cable of any charging gun is placed in the charging parking space of the charging gun. Therefore, the charging cable of the charging gun is not placed in its charging parking space; and the second signal detection result indicates that the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun has detected a signal, which only means that a charging gun is currently placed in the allowed placement position of the charging gun, but whether it is this charging gun requires further detection of the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun based on the signal detected by the second cable detection module and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun.

[0044] Generally, considering that the signal waveforms output by the charging cables of different charging guns are different, the signals detected by the second cable detection module are also different. For example, see Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 A schematic diagram of a signal waveform output by a charging cable of a charging gun 1 and a signal waveform output by a charging cable of a charging gun 2 provided in an embodiment of the present application, wherein the signal waveform output by the charging cable of the charging gun 1 changes from large to small until time t, and the signal waveform changes from small to large after time t; while the signal waveform output by the charging cable of the charging gun 2 changes from small to large until time t, and the signal waveform changes from large to small after time t, that is, the signal waveform output by the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is different from the signal waveform output by the charging cable of the charging gun 2. By way of example, in an embodiment of the present application, when the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun is detected based on the signal detected by the second cable detection module and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun, it can be determined whether the signal detected by the second cable detection module and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun match. When the signal detected by the second cable detection module and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun match, it indicates that the currently placed charging gun is the charging gun, and the charging cable of the charging gun is placed in its allowed placement position, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun is correct.

[0045] On the contrary, when the signal detected by the second cable detection module does not match the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun, it means that the currently placed charging gun is not the charging gun, and the charging cable of the charging gun is not placed in its allowed placement position. In this case, the signal detected by the second cable detection module can be matched with the reference signals corresponding to other charging guns to determine the first target charging gun corresponding to the successfully matched reference signal; indicating that the first target charging gun is placed in the allowed placement position of the charging gun, and a first prompt message can be output. The first prompt message is used to prompt that the charging gun is not currently placed in its allowed placement position, and the first target charging gun is placed in the allowed placement position of the charging gun, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun is incorrect, and the placement position of the charging cable of the first target charging gun is also incorrect. In this way, the staff can standardize the placement of the charging cable of the charging gun and the charging cable of the first target charging gun based on the first prompt message, thereby extending the service life of the charging cable.

[0046] Taking the detection of the placement position of the charging cable of charging gun 1 based on the first signal detection result and the second signal detection result corresponding to charging gun 1 as an example, if the cable detection module 1-1 corresponding to charging gun 1 does not detect a signal, and the cable detection module 2-1 corresponding to charging gun 1 detects a signal, it means that no charging cable of any charging gun is placed in the charging parking space 1 of the charging gun 1. Therefore, the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is not placed in its charging parking space 1; and the cable detection module 2-1 corresponding to the charging gun 1 detects a signal, which only means that a charging gun is currently placed in the allowed placement position of the charging gun 1, but whether the charging gun is charging gun 1, it is necessary to further detect the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 1 based on the signal detected by the cable detection module 2-1 and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1.

[0047] Normally, considering that the signal waveforms output by the charging cables of different charging guns are different, the signal detected by the cable detection module 2-1 is also different. For example, based on the signal detected by the cable detection module 2-1 and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1, when the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is detected, it can be determined whether the signal detected by the cable detection module 2-1 matches the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1. When the signal detected by the cable detection module 2-1 matches the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1, it means that the currently placed charging gun is the charging gun 1, and the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is placed in its allowed placement position, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is correct.

[0048] On the contrary, when the signal detected by the cable detection module 2-1 does not match the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1, it means that the currently placed charging gun is not the charging gun 1, and the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is not placed in its allowed placement position. In this case, the signal detected by the cable detection module 2-1 can be matched with the reference signals corresponding to other charging guns to determine the first target charging gun corresponding to the successfully matched reference signal. Assuming that it matches the reference signal of charging gun 3, charging gun 3 is the first target charging gun; it means that charging gun 3 is placed in the allowed placement position of charging gun 1, and a first prompt message can be output. The first prompt message is used to prompt that the charging gun 1 is not currently placed in its allowed placement position, and the charging gun 3 is placed in the allowed placement position of the charging gun 1, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is incorrect, and the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 3 is also incorrect. In this way, the staff can standardize the placement of the charging cables of the charging gun 1 and the charging cables of the charging gun 3 based on the first prompt message, thereby extending the service life of the charging cables.

[0049] In another possible scenario, for example, see the above Figure 5 As shown in the first half of , it is assumed that the second signal detection result indicates that the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun has not detected a signal, and the first signal detection result indicates that the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun has detected a signal.

[0050] In this possible scenario, given that the second signal detection result indicates that the second cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun has not detected any signal, it means that no charging gun is placed in the allowed placement position of the charging gun, and therefore, the charging cable of the charging gun is not placed in its allowed placement position; and the first signal detection result indicates that the first cable detection module corresponding to the charging gun has detected a signal, which only means that a charging gun is currently placed in the charging parking space of the charging gun, but whether it is this charging gun requires further detection of the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun based on the signal detected by the first cable detection module and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun.

[0051] Normally, taking into account that the signal waveforms output by the charging cables of different charging guns are different, the signals detected by the first cable detection module are also different. For example, in an embodiment of the present application, based on the signal detected by the first cable detection module and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun, when detecting the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun, it can be determined whether the signal detected by the first cable detection module matches the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun. When the signal detected by the first cable detection module matches the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun, it indicates that the currently placed charging gun is the charging gun, and the charging cable of the charging gun is placed in its charging parking space, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun is incorrect.

[0052] On the contrary, when the signal detected by the first cable detection module does not match the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun, it means that the currently placed charging gun is not this charging gun, and the charging cable of the charging gun is not placed in its charging parking space. In this case, the signal detected by the first cable detection module can be matched with the reference signals corresponding to other charging guns to determine whether there is a reference signal that successfully matches the signal detected by the first cable detection module.

[0053] When it is determined that there is a successfully matched reference signal, a second prompt message is output. The second prompt message is used to prompt that the charging gun is not currently placed in the charging parking space of the charging gun, and the second target charging gun corresponding to the reference signal is placed in the charging parking space of the charging gun, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun is incorrect, and the placement position of the charging cable of the second target charging gun is also incorrect. In this way, the staff can standardize the placement of the charging cable of the charging gun and the charging cable of the second target charging gun based on the second prompt message, which can avoid the charging cable of the charging gun and the charging cable of the second target charging gun from being crushed by other vehicles, thereby extending the service life of the charging cable.

[0054] When it is determined that there is no successfully matched reference signal, the signal detected by the first cable detection module can be analyzed to obtain multiple analysis signals; based on the multiple analysis signals and the reference signals corresponding to other charging guns, multiple third target charging guns are determined; and a third prompt message is output, the third prompt message is used to prompt that the charging gun is not currently placed in the charging parking space of the charging gun, and multiple third target charging guns are placed in the charging parking space of the charging gun, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun is incorrect, and the placement positions of the charging cables of multiple third target charging guns are also incorrect. In this way, the staff can standardize the placement of the charging cable of the charging gun and the charging cables of multiple third target charging guns based on the third prompt message, which can avoid the charging cable of the charging gun and the charging cables of multiple third target charging guns from being crushed by other vehicles, thereby extending the service life of the charging cable.

[0055] For example, in an embodiment of the present application, when determining multiple third target charging guns based on multiple resolution signals and reference signals corresponding to other charging guns, in order to effectively improve the determination efficiency of the third target charging gun, it is not necessary to match the multiple resolution signals with the reference signals corresponding to all other charging guns. Instead, the fourth target charging gun that is not correctly placed in the corresponding allowed placement position is first determined from all other charging guns; and the multiple resolution signals are respectively matched with the reference signals corresponding to the fourth target charging gun to determine whether there are multiple reference signals that successfully match the multiple resolution signals; and then the fourth target charging gun corresponding to each of the multiple reference signals that successfully match the multiple resolution signals is determined as the third target charging gun. This can effectively improve the determination efficiency of the third target charging gun.

[0056] Similarly, taking the detection of the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 1 based on the first signal detection result and the second signal detection result corresponding to the charging gun 1 as an example, if the cable detection module 1-1 corresponding to the charging gun 1 detects a signal and the cable detection module 2-1 corresponding to the charging gun 1 does not detect a signal, it means that no charging gun is placed in the allowed placement position of the charging gun 1, and therefore, the charging gun 1 is not placed in its allowed placement position; and the cable detection module 1-1 corresponding to the charging gun 1 detects a signal, which only means that a charging gun is currently placed in the charging parking space 1 of the charging gun 1, but whether it is the charging gun 1, it is necessary to further detect the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 1 based on the signal detected by the cable detection module 2-1 and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1.

[0057] Normally, taking into account that the signal waveforms output by the charging cables of different charging guns are different, the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1 is also different. For example, based on the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1 and the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1, when detecting the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 1, it can be determined whether the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1 matches the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1. When the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1 matches the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1, it means that the currently placed charging gun is the charging gun 1, and the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is placed in the charging parking space 1, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is incorrect.

[0058] On the contrary, when the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1 does not match the reference signal corresponding to the charging gun 1, it means that the currently placed charging gun is not the charging gun 1, and the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is not placed in its charging parking space 1. In this case, the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1 can be matched with the reference signals corresponding to other charging guns to determine whether there is a reference signal that successfully matches the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1.

[0059] When it is determined that there is a reference signal that successfully matches the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1, assuming that the successfully matched reference signal is the reference information corresponding to the charging gun 2, a second prompt information is output, and the second prompt information is used to prompt that the charging gun 1 is not currently placed in the charging parking space of the charging gun 1, and the charging gun 2 is placed in the charging parking space 1 of the charging gun 1, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 1 is incorrect, and the placement position of the charging cable of the charging gun 3 is also incorrect. In this way, the staff can standardize the placement of the charging cable of the charging gun 1 and the charging cable of the charging gun 3 based on the second prompt information, which can avoid the charging cable of the charging gun 1 and the charging cable of the charging gun 2 being crushed by other vehicles, thereby extending the service life of the charging cables.

[0060] When it is determined that there is no reference signal that successfully matches the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1, it means that the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1 is a mixed signal. In this case, the signal detected by the cable detection module 1-1 can be analyzed to obtain multiple analysis signals; and based on the multiple analysis signals and the reference signals corresponding to other charging guns, multiple third target charging guns are determined. Assuming that the multiple third target charging guns are charging gun 3 and charging gun 4, a third prompt information is output. The third prompt information is used to prompt that charging gun 1 is not currently placed in the charging parking space of the charging gun, and charging gun 3 and charging gun 4 are both placed in charging parking space 1 of charging gun 1, that is, the placement position of the charging cable of charging gun 1 is incorrect, and the placement positions of the charging cables of charging gun 3 and charging gun 4 are also incorrect. In this way, the staff can standardize the placement of the charging cables of charging gun 1, charging cable of charging gun 3 and charging cable of charging gun 4 based on the third prompt information, which can avoid the charging cables of charging gun 1, charging cable of charging gun 3 and charging cable of charging gun 4 being crushed by other vehicles, thereby extending the service life of the charging cables.

[0061] By way of example, in an embodiment of the present application, when determining multiple third target charging guns based on multiple resolution signals and reference signals corresponding to other charging guns, in order to effectively improve the efficiency of determining the third target charging gun, it is not necessary to match the multiple resolution signals with all other charging guns, such as the reference signals corresponding to charging gun 2, charging gun 3, charging gun 4, charging gun 5 and charging gun 4. Instead, the fourth target charging gun that is not correctly placed in the corresponding allowed placement position, such as charging gun 3, charging gun 4 and charging gun 5, is first determined from charging gun 2, charging gun 3, charging gun 4, charging gun 5 and charging gun 4; and the multiple resolution signals are matched with the reference signals corresponding to charging gun 3, charging gun 4 and charging gun 5, respectively, to determine whether there are multiple reference signals that successfully match the multiple resolution signals. Assuming that the multiple reference signals that successfully match the multiple resolution signals are the reference signals corresponding to charging gun 3 and charging gun 4, respectively, charging gun 3 and charging gun 4 are determined as the third target charging guns, which can effectively improve the efficiency of determining the third target charging gun.
