[0027] In order to enable ordinary persons in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. On the contrary, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the attached claims.

[0029] Since the vehicle unlocking function has high authentication security requirements, the vehicle key used for the vehicle unlocking scenario is a central processing unit (CPU) card. For example, a related technical solution discloses a near field communication (NFC) key pairing system and a pairing method for a vehicle, which can complete the pairing and update of the vehicle NFC key without the need for a network and a cryptographic machine.

[0030] In addition, when the charging pile is installed for the user, a charging card bound to the charging pile is also given to the user. Later, the customer uses the charging card to perform authentication and authorization before charging. In this way, one car needs to be equipped with two cards, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0031] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a vehicle key, which is configured to: send first authentication data to the charging pile in response to a first authentication request sent by the charging pile. The first authentication data is used to indicate that the charging pile charges the vehicle to be charged connected to the charging pile when the first authentication data is authenticated. The vehicle key is also configured to send second authentication data to the vehicle in response to a second authentication request sent by the vehicle; the second authentication data is used to indicate that the vehicle is connected to the vehicle key for communication when the second authentication data is authenticated.

[0034] As a possible implementation method, the vehicle key is used for data interaction and data authentication.

[0035] In some embodiments, when the vehicle key is bound to the target vehicle, the authentication module of the target vehicle obtains the second authentication data sent by the vehicle key, and when the second authentication data is authenticated, sends an unlock or lock request to the body control module of the target vehicle. Subsequently, the vehicle control module performs corresponding operations according to the corresponding request.

[0036] Exemplarily, when the vehicle is locked, the authentication module of the target vehicle sends an unlock request to the body control module when the second authentication data is authenticated. Correspondingly, the body control module controls the vehicle to unlock according to the received unlock request.

[0037] As a possible implementation method, the vehicle key is used for data interaction, data authentication and command control.

[0038] In some embodiments, the vehicle key generates a control instruction and sends the control instruction to the vehicle in response to a user's control operation when the vehicle key is in communication connection with the authentication module of the target vehicle. Accordingly, the target vehicle executes an action corresponding to the control instruction in response to the control instruction.

[0039] The authentication module of the vehicle in the embodiment of the present application can be an NFC authentication module, and can also be an authentication module for other short-range communications, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The vehicle key provided in the embodiment of the present application at least brings the following beneficial effects: by storing the first authentication data and the second authentication data in the vehicle key, the vehicle key can interact with the charging pile and the vehicle, thereby realizing charging and vehicle control. In this way, authentication and interaction with the charging pile and the vehicle are realized through one vehicle key, and the user does not need to carry and use multiple cards, thereby improving the user experience.

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 A vehicle key configuration system 100 is provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 In the embodiment, the configuration system 100 includes a vehicle 101 , a charging station 102 and a vehicle key 103 .

[0045] In some embodiments, vehicle 101 includes an on-board NFC authentication module.

[0046] In some embodiments, the charging pile 102 includes an NFC authentication module. The charging pile 102 in the embodiment of the present application can be manufactured by the same manufacturer as the vehicle 101, or by a different manufacturer than the vehicle 101, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0047] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle key 103 includes a CPU and an NFC module.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the CPU in the vehicle key 103 stores the first authentication data and the second authentication data.

[0049] The vehicle key 103 is configured to send first authentication data to the charging pile in response to a first authentication request sent by the charging pile.

[0050] The charging pile 102 is configured to: authenticate the first authentication data, and charge the vehicle to be charged if the first authentication data is authenticated; the vehicle to be charged is electrically connected to the charging pile.

[0051] The vehicle key 103 is further configured to send second authentication data to the vehicle 101 in response to a second authentication request sent by the vehicle 101 .

[0052] The vehicle 101 is configured to authenticate the second authentication data and, if the second authentication data is authenticated, to communicate with the vehicle key 103 .

[0053] In a possible design, the configuration system 100 further includes a burning device 104 .

[0054] The burning device 104 is configured to: generate identification data and first authentication data, and burn the first authentication data and identification data to the vehicle key 103; the first authentication data is binding the vehicle key 103 to the charging pile 102.

[0055] In some embodiments, the burning device 104 is configured to: generate identification data according to a preset generation algorithm and generate first authentication data according to the identification data and a preset encryption algorithm.

[0056] In some other embodiments, the burning device 104 is configured to: randomly generate identification data.

[0057] Exemplarily, the identification data is a user identification (ID).

[0058] It should be noted that the preset generation algorithm and the preset encryption algorithm are pre-stored in the burning device 104 by the operation and maintenance personnel. The preset encryption algorithm can be a digest algorithm, a symmetric encryption algorithm or an asymmetric encryption algorithm. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the preset encryption algorithm.

[0059] The burning device 104 is further configured to generate second authentication data and burn the second authentication data to the vehicle key 103. The second authentication data is data binding the vehicle key 103 and the vehicle 101.

[0060] In some embodiments, the second authentication data includes numbering data and / or a preset key.

[0061] In a possible design, the burning device 104 is specifically configured to generate first authentication data according to the identification data and a preset encryption algorithm.

[0062] In one possible design, the configuration system 100 further includes an electrical testing device 105 .

[0063] The electrical inspection device 105 is configured to control the vehicle 101 to enter a card binding mode.

[0064] In some embodiments, after the burning device 104 burns the first authentication data and the second authentication data into the vehicle key 103, the vehicle key 103 is delivered to the production line. Further, the operator on the automobile production line uses the electric inspection device 105 to control the NFC authentication module of the vehicle 101 to enter the card binding mode.

[0065] Specifically, the electrical inspection device 105 is connected to the on-board diagnostics (OBD) interface of the vehicle 101, and sends a unified diagnostic services (UDS) diagnostic message to the NFC authentication module of the vehicle 101 through the controller area network (CAN). Furthermore, after the NFC authentication module of the vehicle 101 performs security authentication with the electrical inspection device 105, the NFC authentication module of the vehicle 101 is controlled to enter the card binding mode.

[0066] The vehicle 101 is configured to: in the card binding mode, obtain the second authentication data sent by the vehicle key 103, and bind with the vehicle key 103 according to the second authentication data.

[0067] In some embodiments, the operator places the vehicle key 103 in the card swiping area of ​​the vehicle 101, waits for a preset time to complete the binding of the vehicle key 103 with the vehicle-mounted NFC authentication module, and then places the vehicle key 103 in the vehicle 101. Subsequently, the vehicle key 103 circulates with the vehicle 101.

[0068] In a possible design, the charging pile 102 is configured to obtain identification data and first authentication data sent by the vehicle key 103, and generate third authentication data according to the identification data and a preset encryption algorithm.

[0069] The charging post 102 is further configured to be bound to the vehicle key 103 when the third authentication data matches the first authentication data.

[0070] In some embodiments, when the vehicle 101 is delivered to the user, and after the user's charging pile 102 is installed, the charging pile 102 is triggered to learn the NFC card mode switch, and the NFC authentication module of the charging pile 102 is notified to enter the card binding mode. Further, the vehicle key 103 is placed in the NFC card swiping area of ​​the charging pile 102, and the NFC authentication module of the charging pile 102 reads the identification data of the vehicle key 103, and calculates the theoretical sector password using the first encryption algorithm, and calculates the theoretical sector data using the second encryption algorithm. Subsequently, if the charging pile 102 uses the theoretical sector password, the actual sector data can be read from the vehicle key 103, and the actual sector data is the same as the theoretical sector data, the binding of the vehicle key 103 to the NFC authentication module of the charging pile 102 can be completed. Otherwise, it is determined that the binding of the vehicle key 103 to the NFC authentication module of the charging pile 102 has failed.

[0071] It should be noted that the first encryption algorithm and the second encryption algorithm are pre-stored in the burning device 104 by the operation and maintenance personnel, and the first encryption algorithm and the second encryption algorithm are not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application. In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the charging pile 102 is also configured with the first encryption algorithm and the second encryption algorithm.

[0072] In a possible design, the vehicle key 103 is further configured to: in response to a control operation, send a control instruction to the vehicle 101 when the vehicle key 103 is in communication connection with the vehicle 101 .

[0073] The vehicle 101 is further configured to respond to a control instruction sent by the vehicle key 103 and execute a target action corresponding to the control instruction according to the control instruction.

[0074] In a possible design, the vehicle key 103 communicates with the vehicle 101 or the charging station 102 via near field communication NFC, and the target action is unlocking, unlocking, opening the trunk, or starting the vehicle 101.

[0087] It should be noted that when a user purchases a vehicle, the vehicle key is delivered to the user. Further, the car manufacturer notifies the charging pile manufacturer to install the charging pile for the user. Subsequently, when the charging pile manufacturer installs the charging pile, the charging pile is controlled to enter the card binding mode, and the operation and maintenance personnel provide the user with a card key.
