Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, and in particular to an IPv6-based smart connected charging pile system. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the rapid development of new energy vehicles in recent years, charging piles have also become increasingly widespread. Especially with the deep integration of new technologies such as cloud computing, big data, the Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence with electric vehicle charging, energy trading, and energy balancing, electric vehicle charging infrastructure is gradually evolving towards green, wireless, intelligent, and autonomous driving. However, the existing independent network operation model of charging pile operators severely restricts the further development of the charging pile industry. Currently, intelligent charging pile systems mainly consist of three parts: charging pile hardware, operator business management platform, and mobile terminal applications. They mostly adopt a distributed architecture based on IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) Ethernet. Communication between the charging piles and the business management platform is primarily achieved using TCP / IP (Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol). The platform and the charging piles are deployed in the same enterprise's proprietary network environment, interconnected and communicating via a local area network or the Internet, supplemented by 4G / 5G, cloud computing, and other technologies to achieve charging pile sharing and payment. Currently, there are several common communication protocols for charging piles, such as OCPP (Open Charge Point Protocol), CAN (Controller Area Network), Modbus (Modbus Protocol), and MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport). These protocols each have their own characteristics and are suitable for different application scenarios. OCPP is commonly used as the communication protocol for charging stations, CAN is mainly used for communication within vehicles, Modbus is commonly used in industrial automation, and MQTT is suitable for low-bandwidth, high-latency IoT scenarios. However, the application of these protocols in the field of electric vehicle charging has certain limitations, such as a lack of standardization and poor interoperability, making unified management impossible. Summary of the Invention

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] First, existing charging stations use a distributed architecture based on IPv4 Ethernet. Due to the scarcity of IPv4 addresses, each operator uses a private network for charging station billing and management. These private networks cannot interconnect, and there is significant overlap in private IPv4 addresses, making a global management model impossible. Charging stations must connect to a specific private network and communicate with the outside world through a designated service platform. Users need to install different apps developed by different charging station operators for services such as station search, reservation, and payment, which is inconvenient and provides a poor user experience. Because there is significant overlap in private IP (Internet Protocol) addresses, they cannot be directly recognized by the internet. Network Address Translation (NAT) is required to translate internal IP addresses into internet-usable IP addresses to enable communication between the private network and the external internet, which reduces the system's network transmission efficiency. Meanwhile, because common charging pile communication protocols such as OCPP, CAN, Modbus, and MQTT have not formed a unified access standard that supports IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), a global management mode cannot be formed, and functions such as network-wide interaction, intelligent early warning, and vehicle-charging pile trading cannot be realized, which restricts the development of electric vehicle charging infrastructure.

[0028] Secondly, most personal charging stations currently lack independent network connectivity and operational capabilities, leaving them idle most of the time and resulting in resource waste. While shared private charging stations can revitalize idle resources, safety, compatibility, and cost are the main issues hindering their development.

[0029] Finally, there is currently no universal standard for charging pile identification coding. Charging facility data is scattered and standards vary. Although some regions have issued relevant local standards, there is no correlation or universality between the local standards, making it impossible to form a universal unified coding rule and standard for charging piles. Moreover, all current charging pile identification codes only have the function of carrying information and do not have communication capabilities.

[0030] Based on this, the present invention provides an IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system, which adopts a layered system architecture. By inventing a city-level public and open access cloud platform for IPv6 intelligent charging piles and a universal IPv6 intelligent charging pile network access chip / module, it produces intelligent charging piles with independent networking and operation capabilities. Utilizing the pure IPv6 end-to-end characteristics, it enables individuals and operators' charging piles to smoothly connect to the IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system, realizing the "decentralization and platform-free" of the intelligent charging pile system, and creating an interconnection mode between the platform and the charging pile (MN).

[0031] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a detailed description of an IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system disclosed in this embodiment of the invention will be provided first.

[0032] Example 1:

[0033] This invention provides an IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system, see [link / reference]. Figure 1 The diagram shows a structural schematic of an IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system. The IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system includes: an intelligent charging pile access platform, multiple IPv6-based charging piles from operators or individuals, multiple operator charging pile platforms, a third-party new energy vehicle application system, an electric vehicle with in-vehicle communication, and a monitoring system.

[0034] In the IPv6-based smart connected charging pile system, all clients, platforms, and charging piles are connected to the IPv6 Internet through a unified IPv6 charging pile communication access standard.

[0035] The intelligent charging pile access platform is used for the registration, access authentication and authorization of charging piles; interconnection with the regulatory system and charging pile platform; and providing open standard interfaces to third-party new energy vehicle application systems.

[0036] Multiple IPv6-based charging piles are equipped with IPv6 communication modules, which are used to access the smart connected charging pile system through a unified IPv6 smart charging pile network access standard.

[0037] Multiple operators' charging pile platforms are used to access the smart connected charging pile system through a unified IPv6 smart charging pile network access standard;

[0038] Third-party new energy vehicle application systems are used to connect to smart charging pile access platforms through open standard interfaces;

[0039] Electric vehicles with in-vehicle communication are equipped with IPv6 communication modules, which are used to access the smart connected charging pile system through a unified IPv6 smart charging pile network access standard.

[0040] The monitoring system is used to centrally monitor charging piles within a city on a city-by-city basis.

[0041] This embodiment discloses a smart network connection method for charging piles based on IPv6, which can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 2 The diagram illustrates the structural composition of an IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system. This system includes an intelligent charging pile access platform 1, IPv6-based charging piles of operator #1 2, IPv6-based charging piles of operator #2 3, personal IPv6-based charging piles 4, operator #1 charging pile platform / APP 5, operator #2 charging pile platform / APP 6, a third-party new energy vehicle application system / APP 7, electric vehicles (including vehicle-to-everything communication) 8, and a monitoring system 9. All clients, platforms, and charging piles are connected to the IPv6 Internet through a unified IPv6 charging pile communication access standard. This system can have multiple third-party new energy vehicle application systems / APPs, charging piles, and electric vehicles (including vehicle-to-everything communication). Figure 2 The diagram only illustrates one scenario where two operators are connected. Theoretically, the number of operators can be increased indefinitely. This invention applies to scenarios where one or more operators are connected.

[0042] The system adopts IPv6 single-stack networking, breaking through the limitations of existing private IPv4 private networks. All clients, platforms and charging piles in the system are connected to the IPv6 Internet through a unified IPv6 charging pile communication access standard, realizing end-to-end information exchange and communication.

[0043] In some embodiments, the aforementioned IPv6 network provides encryption and authentication mechanisms via the IPsec protocol.

[0044] Compared to IPv4 networks, IPv6 offers faster end-to-end communication, significantly improving network efficiency. Simultaneously, IPv6 provides more security mechanisms, such as built-in support for the IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) protocol, which provides encryption and authentication mechanisms for IPv6 network connections. This makes IPv6-based smart charging pile systems more secure, ensuring the integrity and confidentiality of end-to-end communication at the network layer.

[0045] The intelligent charging pile access platform 1 is the "brain" of the IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system. Its functions include at least: charging pile registration and access authentication / authorization; interconnection with the regulatory system 9, operator charging pile platforms / APPs 5 / 6, etc.; and providing open standard interfaces to third-party new energy vehicle application systems / APPs 7, enabling third-party developers to develop unique new energy vehicle applications / APPs based on these standard interfaces. By introducing the intelligent charging pile access platform 1, loose coupling between charging piles and new energy vehicle applications can be achieved, allowing new energy vehicle applications to simultaneously connect to charging piles from multiple operators.

[0046] The charging piles based on IPv6 (operator #1), IPv6 (operator #2), and IPv6 (personal) form the "foundation" of the IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system. All are equipped with IPv6 communication modules and connect to the intelligent connected charging pile system through a unified IPv6 intelligent charging pile network access standard. Because they have globally unique IPv6 addresses, they can directly communicate end-to-end with the intelligent charging pile access platform 1, the operator's charging pile platform / APP 5 / 6, third-party new energy vehicle application systems / APP 7, and the electric vehicle (including in-vehicle communication) 8, achieving cross-platform linkage. This allows them to obtain the current battery status and charging needs of the electric vehicle, enabling users to view the charging progress and status in real time while waiting for charging. Simultaneously, because the IPv6 network connection provides IPsec encryption and authentication mechanisms, it avoids the leakage of users' personal information during the acquisition of battery charging data, strengthening user privacy protection.

[0047] In both Operator #1 charging pile platform / APP 5 and Operator #, the operator's own business structure remains unchanged.

[0048] Third-party new energy vehicle application systems / apps 7 connect to the smart charging pile access platform 1 through open standard interfaces (such as APIs). Third parties can develop unique new energy vehicle applications / apps based on these standard interfaces, thus achieving loose coupling between charging piles and new energy vehicle applications. This allows new energy vehicle applications to connect to charging piles from multiple operators simultaneously. Users can use any third-party new energy vehicle application system / app within the system to search for charging piles from multiple operators or individuals. Furthermore, based on the specific services offered by third-party developers, services such as location queries for charging piles across the entire network, display of availability, optimal route planning, online reservations, and seamless payment can be provided.

[0049] In some embodiments, the electric vehicle with in-vehicle communication described above is also used to feed back the current battery status and charging requirements of the electric vehicle to the charging pile, and to simultaneously display the charging time and battery charging status.

[0050] The electric vehicle (including vehicle communication) is equipped with an IPv6 communication module. It can access the smart connected charging pile system through the unified IPv6 smart charging pile network access standard, and can communicate directly with the charging pile. It can safely feed back the current status of the electric vehicle's battery and charging needs to the charging pile, and simultaneously display the charging time and battery charging status, so that users can understand the charging process more intuitively.

[0051] The monitoring system 9 follows a unified access standard, allowing centralized monitoring of all charging piles within a city on a city-by-city basis. By introducing IPv6 technology, charging piles 2 (based on IPv6 by operator #1), 3 (based on IPv6 by operator #2), and 4 (based on IPv6 by individuals) can all obtain globally unique IPv6 addresses. The monitoring system 9 connects to the smart charging pile access platform 1 through open standard interfaces (such as APIs), thereby obtaining real-time information on the geographical location, working status, charging power, battery status, temperature, and other information of all charging piles in the system, enabling remote monitoring and unified intelligent management of all smart charging piles in the system.

[0052] This invention provides an IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system. It adopts a layered system architecture and utilizes a city-level public and open access cloud platform for IPv6 intelligent charging piles and a universal IPv6 intelligent charging pile network access chip / module. This enables the production of intelligent charging piles with independent networking and operational capabilities. Leveraging the end-to-end characteristics of pure IPv6, it allows individuals and operators' charging piles to smoothly connect to the IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system, achieving "decentralization and platform decentralization" of the intelligent charging pile system and creating an interconnection mode between the platform and the charging pile (MN).

[0053] Example 2:

[0054] This invention provides another intelligent connected charging pile system based on IPv6. This embodiment is based on the above embodiments and focuses on describing the intelligent connected charging pile device based on IPv6. In some embodiments, the above-mentioned IPv6-based charging pile includes: an operation screen module, a central processing unit, a data storage module, a control module, a charging module, and an IPv6 communication module.

[0055] In some embodiments, the IPv6 communication module of the charging pile is used to form a standard communication and control interface of the charging pile main control unit according to the charging pile type and with corresponding peripheral circuits, and to form a standard physical size; the IPv6 communication module of the charging pile is connected to the central processing unit to enable the charging pile to connect to the smart connected charging pile system.

[0056] See Figure 3The diagram shows the internal modules and external connections of an IPv6-based smart connected charging pile device. The appearance of the IPv6-based smart connected charging pile device provided in this embodiment is similar to that of existing charging piles. The smart connected charging pile device is equipped with an operation screen module (preferably an LCD touch screen), a central processing unit, a data storage module, a control module, a charging module, and an IPv6 communication module.

[0057] Unlike existing charging piles, the charging pile provided by this invention incorporates an IPv6 communication module 100, enabling it to independently network and operate. The IPv6 communication module 100 requires corresponding peripheral circuitry depending on the type of charging pile, forming a standard communication and control interface with the charging pile's main control unit and conforming to standard physical dimensions, thus reducing manufacturers' R&D and production costs. The IPv6 communication module 100 connects to the central processing unit, enabling the charging pile to connect to an IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system. This allows the charging pile to obtain a globally unique IPv6 address, facilitating end-to-end communication with the platform and application system within the system, and enabling functions such as pile location tracking, scheduled charging, and contactless payment.

[0058] Example 3:

[0059] This invention provides another intelligent connected charging pile system based on IPv6. This embodiment is based on the above embodiment and focuses on describing the IPv6 communication chip. In some embodiments, the core of the IPv6 communication module of the charging pile is the IPv6 communication chip; the IPv6 communication chip integrates and encapsulates an IPv6 digital spatial identity identifier.

[0060] See Figure 4 The diagram shows a schematic of an IPv6 communication module structure. The core of the IPv6 communication module 100 is a general-purpose IPv6 communication chip 101. The IPv6 communication chip 101 should integrate and encapsulate an independent and legal IPv6 digital space identity identifier, as well as capabilities such as unified IPv6 access, blockchain anti-tampering, and digital RMB transactions, so that the charging pile has an independent and legal communication identity on the Internet, allowing all new smart charging piles, including personal charging piles, to connect to multiple operator platforms at the same time, truly realizing the sharing economy.

[0061] In some embodiments, the aforementioned IPv6 digital space identity is an IPv6 address; the IPv6 address includes: prefix, location information, production information, reserved subnet, charging pile information, and interface ID.

[0062] In some embodiments, the above prefix is ​​an address prefix obtained from the address allocation unit, used for charging device identification and external communication; location information includes searching for nearby charging pile hotspots; production information is used for users to enter network accounts and passwords; reserved subnet is used to display the network distribution progress bar; charging pile information is used for automatic acquisition of IPv6 addresses; and interface ID is used to obtain the system's unique charging pile number.

[0063] See Figure 5 The diagram shown illustrates a charging pile identification coding structure based on IPv6 addresses. This invention discloses a method for using IPv6 addresses as digital identifiers for charging piles, aiming to ensure unified coding of electric vehicle charging facilities. The IPv6 address space is 10... 38 The vast address space is sufficient to support a digital identity system. Using IPv6 addresses as the digital identity identifier for charging piles ensures that the charging pile identification code is unique, universal, and convenient, possessing not only information-carrying capabilities but also direct communication capabilities. The following combines... Figure 5 Introducing a charging pile identification encoding structure based on IPv6 addresses:

[0064] An IPv6 address is 128 bits long, represented in hexadecimal in 8 groups, each separated by a colon (:). By establishing, maintaining, and using a charging facility catalog, and leveraging advanced IPv6 technology to build a high-quality device database, IPv6 addresses can accurately describe charging facilities, ensuring the consistency and uniqueness of charging facilities and making information exchange more direct and efficient.

[0065] 201, a prefix, is an address prefix obtained from the address allocation unit, used for charging device identification and external communication.

[0066] 202, Location Information, includes at least the steps of searching for nearby charging station hotspots and manually or automatically connecting to the hotspot, where the hotspot is emitted by the charging station.

[0071] Example 4:

[0072] This invention provides another IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system. This embodiment is based on the above embodiment and focuses on describing the working process of the above IPv6 intelligent connected charging pile system and its intelligent connected charging pile device. See also Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the working process of an IPv6-based smart connected charging pile device includes the following steps:

[0073] Step 301, IPv6 Internet.

[0074] Step 302: Any third-party new energy vehicle application system / APP within the system communicates directly with the charging piles of different operators through a unique IPv6 address, and displays the equipment status, location and other information of the charging piles of different operators on the third-party new energy vehicle application system / APP.

[0075] Step 303: Users can select different third-party new energy vehicle application systems / APPs according to their personal preferences, and select different operators' charging stations in the third-party new energy vehicle application systems / APPs to make online reservations for charging stations and charging time.

[0076] Step 304: The user navigates to the charging station based on the location map information of the charging piles provided on the selected third-party new energy vehicle application system / APP.

[0077] Step 305: Based on the online reservation, select the specific charging pile at the charging station and obtain the unique identification information of the charging pile (i.e., the charging pile number, which is usually composed of numbers, letters and symbols and is used to identify the specific location and number of the charging pile equipment).

[0078] Step 306: Enter the unique charging station number on the charging station's control panel for identity verification. If verification fails, return to step 305, select a charging station again, and obtain the charging station number for identity verification; if verification succeeds, proceed to step 307.

[0079] Step 307: After successful identity verification, you will be taken to the screen to confirm the current electricity price and charging duration. If you click "Cancel", you will return to step 306 and re-authenticate; if you click "Confirm", you will proceed to step 308.

[0080] Step 308: Charge according to the scheduled duration.

[0081] Step 309: Automatically or manually stop charging based on the actual charging status, and proceed to the charging completion confirmation screen. The charging station will automatically stop charging after the scheduled time expires, or you can manually stop charging using the stop button on the station. Confirm charging completion on the operation screen. If you select "No," return to step 308 and select "Continue Charging"; if you select "Yes," proceed to step 310.

[0082] Step 310: After charging is complete, make contactless payment. Settle the fee based on the actual charging time. After successful payment, send the payment information and charging result to the user's mobile phone.

See also Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the communication process between an intelligent connected charging pile device and an electric vehicle (including vehicle communication) based on IPv6 is shown, including the following steps:

[0086] Step 401, Communication begins: The IPv6 communication module on the electric vehicle side sends a charging request to the smart charging pile access platform.

[0087] Step 402: The IPv6 communication module at the charging pile end hands with the smart charging pile access platform to perform authentication. If authentication is successful, proceed to step 403; if authentication fails, proceed to step 407.

[0088] Step 403: After successful authentication, the charging station requests the current battery status and charging requirements of the electric vehicle.

[0089] Step 404: The IPv6 communication module on the electric vehicle side hands together with the smart charging pile access platform to perform authentication. If authentication is successful, proceed to step 405; if authentication fails, proceed to step 407.

[0098] Step 501, Communication begins, the IPv6 communication module at the charging pile end sends a connection request.

[0099] Step 502: The smart charging pile access platform server performs identity verification. If identity verification is successful, proceed to step 503; if identity verification fails, proceed to step 504.

[0100] Step 503: After successful authentication, the charging pile and access platform server are successfully connected. If the connection between the charging pile and the access platform server is lost after successful connection, proceed to step 504; if communication is normal, proceed to step 505.

[0101] Step 504: If authentication fails or the connection is lost, the system will automatically attempt to reconnect. If the connection is successful, proceed to step 503; if the connection fails, proceed to step 508.

[0102] Step 505: Access the platform server to authorize third-party application systems to obtain basic parameters, working status, vehicle connection status, and other data of the charging pile, including at least the total number of charging guns, the number of idle charging guns, the maximum charging current, the maximum charging voltage, the charging reservation time, the charging progress, the temperature, and the system status. If the data acquisition is successful, proceed to step 506; otherwise, proceed to step 508.

[0103] Step 506: The third-party application system sends control commands such as current electricity price confirmation, reservation duration confirmation, charging result confirmation, and start / stop based on the user's reservation data, the parameters and status of the charging pile, and the current electricity price.

[0104] Step 507: The charging pile executes the corresponding control command authorized by the access platform. If the control command is executed successfully, proceed to step 509; if the control command fails, proceed to step 508.

[0105] Step 508: The system performs error handling and pushes the corresponding error and warning information to the third-party application system / APP.

[0106] Step 509: After the charging pile executes the corresponding control command, it reports the record to the access platform. The access platform then authorizes the record to the regulatory system for unified analysis and management.

[0107] Step 510, End.

[0108] Example 7:

[0109] This invention provides another IPv6-based intelligent connected charging pile system. This embodiment is based on the above embodiment and focuses on describing the IPv6-based communication process between the monitoring system and the intelligent charging pile access platform using the above IPv6 intelligent connected charging pile system. See also Figure 9 A schematic diagram of the communication process between a monitoring system and an access platform based on IPv6 is shown, including the following steps:

[0110] Step 601: Initialize the monitoring system and register / log in.

[0111] Step 602: The smart charging pile access platform server performs identity verification. If identity verification is successful, proceed to step 603; if identity verification fails, proceed to step 604.

[0112] Step 603: After successful authentication, the monitoring system and access platform server are successfully connected. If the connection between the monitoring system and access platform server is lost after successful connection, proceed to step 604; if communication is normal, proceed to step 605.

[0113] In step 604, if authentication fails or the connection is lost, the system will automatically attempt to reconnect. If the connection is successful, proceed to step 603; if the connection fails, proceed to step 610.

[0114] Step 605: The access platform server issues corresponding permissions based on the registration information. This invention adopts a hierarchical permission setting: Level 1 super administrator, with the highest level of system management permissions, can manage and configure all system resources, including security settings, user permission allocation, charging pile grouping, etc.; Level 2 system operation and maintenance administrator, responsible for the daily operation and maintenance of the system, can perform system configuration, user management, and other operations; Level 3 system inspector, responsible for monitoring charging pile data and tracking alarm incidents, has management permissions for specific applications, and can perform basic application operations and program upgrades, etc.

[0115] Step 606: Log in to the monitoring system account and initiate a request to access charging pile information.

[0116] Step 607: Based on account authorization, the smart charging pile access platform server agrees to allow the monitoring system to access data from the charging pile sensors and communication modules within its authorized scope, including at least the total number of charging guns, the number of idle charging guns, the maximum charging current, the maximum charging voltage, the charging reservation duration, the charging progress, the temperature, and the system status.

[0117] Step 608: The monitoring system monitors the basic parameters and working status of the charging piles in real time and performs analysis and processing.

[0118] In step 609, the monitoring system compares the real-time data of the charging pile with the pre-set fault warning threshold. If the data exceeds the threshold, step 611 is executed. If the data is normal, this step continues.

[0119] Step 610: The system performs error processing and pushes the corresponding error and warning information to personnel at all levels of the supervision system.

[0120] Step 611: Issue a system alarm and immediately stop the faulty charging station. Simultaneously, inform rescue personnel of the charging station's location to facilitate immediate assistance.

[0121] Step 612, End.

[0122] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention mainly provide the following:

[0123] 1. Employing IPv6 digital spatial identification, each charging pile has an independent IPv6 identity independent of its network location. This facilitates lifelong tracking and maintenance of charging piles, as well as automatic network connection and reduces network configuration complexity. Common charging pile identifiers lack communication capabilities. However, through a resolution system using IPv6 addresses as digital identifiers, identification allocation, registration, and resolution services can be implemented within the enterprise's charging pile system, while external communication is also possible. The external communication address uses the IPv6 address prefix of the internal identifier.

[0124] 2. Adopting a layered structure, the construction, maintenance, and business operation of charging piles are separated by introducing a public access platform. This allows third-party developers to develop specialized services based on charging piles from different operators. Each charging pile APP can connect to multiple operators' charging piles simultaneously, making it convenient for users. It also allows for centralized supervision of all charging piles within a city on a city-by-city basis, eliminating potential safety hazards.

[0125] 3. It adopts IPv6 single-stack networking, and each charging pile has an independent and legal communication address on the Internet, breaking through the limitations of the existing private IPv4 private network. It can directly connect and interface with multiple operator platforms, and even be connected to maps such as Gaode and Baidu for independent operation.

[0126] In summary, the main advantages of the above-mentioned contents provided by the embodiments of the present invention are as follows:

[0127] This invention establishes a layered structure for charging piles, access platforms, and application systems by defining interface standards between charging piles and access platforms, charging piles and mobile terminals, access platforms and application systems, access platforms and regulatory systems, and access platforms and operator cloud platforms. This allows for independent investment, construction, and operation and maintenance of charging piles, and separate development and deployment of access platforms and system applications, forming a loosely coupled architecture between operators and charging piles, and creating an interconnection model between the platform and the charging piles (MN). Firstly, through this invention, users only need to install any third-party new energy vehicle application system / APP within the system to perform operations such as searching for, reserving, and paying for IPv6-based smart connected charging piles from different operators or individuals, greatly improving the user experience. Furthermore, the regulatory system can uniformly monitor the basic information and operational status of all smart connected charging pile devices in the system in real time, achieving intelligent management while also greatly ensuring the security and privacy of charging pile site information and user data.

[0128] Secondly, this invention equips smart charging piles with IPv6 communication chips. These chips integrate and encapsulate independent and legal IPv6 digital identity identifiers, as well as capabilities such as unified IPv6 access, blockchain tamper-proofing, and digital RMB transactions. This gives charging piles a legal communication identity on the internet, enabling them to operate and settle transactions independently. It allows all new types of smart charging piles, including personal charging piles, to simultaneously connect to multiple operator platforms, truly realizing the sharing economy. Through this invention, personal charging piles are also incorporated into the regulatory system, significantly reducing safety risks such as electrical faults and overcharging during use. A third-party app allows users to view basic information such as the charging pile's model, interface, and electrical specifications, facilitating user identification and resolving compatibility issues with shared private charging piles.

[0129] Finally, this invention integrates and encapsulates an independent and legal IPv6 digital space identity for the charging pile communication chip, revealing an encoding method that uses IPv6 addresses as the identity identifier for charging piles. This ensures the consistency and uniqueness of charging pile codes and can completely solve the problems of scattered and inconsistent charging facility data. Furthermore, IPv6 addresses are internationally recognized, possessing universality and communication capabilities, which helps in the effective management of charging facilities, promotes information interconnection between various manufacturers and operators, improves the quality of charging facility data, and enables the charging pile industry to better serve society.
