[0051] Example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail herein with reference to the drawings. The following description is made with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which like reference numerals represent like elements or similar elements, unless otherwise specified. Various changes, modifications, and equivalents of the methods, devices, and / or systems described herein will become apparent to those skilled in the art after a study of the following description. For example, the order in which operations are described is merely exemplary and is not limited to the described ordering unless a particular ordering is required by the description. Additionally, descriptions of features or aspects within given figures can also be applicable to other figures. For the sake of brevity, descriptions of familiar features or aspects can not be repeated in every figure.

[0052] The implementations described in the following exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure do not represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0053] In the related art, only chargers of the same manufacturer as the electronic device are allowed to charge at the rated power, and chargers of different manufacturers are limited to low-power charging. This charging control method has poor flexibility and cannot better utilize the charging performance of the charger, greatly affecting the user's charging experience.

[0054] The specific implementation of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0055] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a charging control method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 1 The charging control method can be applied to an electronic device and can include the following steps.

[0056] In step S110, charger information of a charger connected to the electronic device is obtained.

[0057] The electronic device can be, for example, a smartphone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a wearable device, a player, a mobile power supply, etc. The connected charger can be a wired charger or a wireless charger, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

[0058] The charger information can be information that can identify the charger, for example, the serial number information of the charger, or the manufacturer information and / or product model information of the charger.

[0059] In exemplary embodiments, the charger information can consist of a supplier ID and a product ID thereof.

[0060] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the electronic device can obtain the charger information through system broadcast, an API (Application Programming Interface) supporting obtaining of charger information, or a third-party application.

[0061] In step S120, the charger list to which the charger belongs is determined according to the charger information.

[0062] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the charger is connected to the electronic device, the electronic device can intelligently identify the charger list to which the connected charger belongs according to the charger information, where different charger lists can correspond to different charging modes, and the maximum charging power allowed in different charging modes can be different.

[0063] In step S130, in response to the charger belonging to the first charger list, the charger is controlled to charge based on a first charging strategy, where the maximum charging power allowed under the first charging strategy matches the maximum power supported by the charger or the electronic device.

[0064] The charger corresponding to the charger information in the first charger list can be a verified charger that can provide safe and stable charging services at the maximum value in the capability range. The maximum value in the capability range can be the smaller one of the rated power of the charger (i.e., the maximum power supported by the charger) and the maximum charging power supported by the electronic device. In the case where it is determined that the charger belongs to the first charger list, the charger can be allowed to charge the electronic device with the maximum charging power in the capability range during the charging process.

[0065] In the example embodiments, the electronic device can further query the rated power information of the charger through a specific communication protocol, and adjust the output voltage and current of the charging interface according to the queried rated power information, and then send corresponding charging instructions to the charger through the charging interface to instruct the charger to charge based on the rated power. During the charging process, the electronic device can monitor the state of the battery and the charging efficiency in real time, and adjust the charging parameters as needed.

[0066] In the example embodiments, the charging power can also not be limited in response to the charger belonging to the first charger list. In the case where the charging function of the charger is opened without power limitation, the charger can naturally charge with the maximum charging capability.

[0067] In step S140, in response to the charger belonging to the second charger list, the charger is controlled to charge based on a second charging strategy, where the maximum charging power allowed under the second charging strategy is a set power.

[0068] The charger corresponding to the charger information in the second charger list can be a verified charger that can provide safe and stable charging service when the charging power is open to a set power. The set power can be a preset value, for example, a preset value lower than the rated power of most chargers on the market (such as 10W, 20W, etc.), or a power value determined based on a lower current threshold (such as 1A, 2A, etc.); the set power can also be the maximum power value verified for different models of chargers that can provide safe and stable charging service. In the case of determining that the charger belongs to the second charger list, the charger can be allowed to charge the electronic device with the set power as the maximum charging power during the charging process.

[0069] In an example embodiment, the first charger list is a white list, and the second charger list is a black list. The chargers in the white list are verified and can be safely open to the rated power of the charger or the maximum charging power supported by the electronic device for charging; the chargers in the black list are also verified, and when the charging power of these chargers is limited below the set power, the safety of the charging process can be ensured.

[0070] As can be seen from the above steps, by the charging control method provided by the present disclosure, after the charger is connected to the electronic device, the charger list to which the charger belongs can be determined based on the obtained charger information, and the charger is controlled to charge the electronic device with different maximum charging powers in the case of the charger belonging to different charger lists. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, first, the charger list to which the charger belongs can be determined based on the charger information, and second, different charging methods are set for the chargers in different charger lists, so that the electronic device can be charged according to the charging method corresponding to the charger list to which the charger belongs, and the maximum charging power allowed in different charging methods is different. It can be seen that the present disclosure can intelligently identify the charger list to which the connected charger belongs, control the charger to charge the electronic device according to the charging strategy corresponding to the charger list, consider the safety of the charging process, fully exert the charging performance of the charger, and improve the charging experience of the user.

[0071] Figure 2 is a flowchart of a charging control method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0072] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 2 Steps S210, S220, S230, and S240 in the charging control method shown in Figure 1 Steps S110, S120, S130, and S140 in the charging control method shown in correspond to the above, which will not be repeated here.

[0073] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, in the charging control method shown in Figure 1 The charging control method shown in Figure 2 The charging control method shown in

[0074] In step S250, in response to the charger not belonging to the first charger list and the second charger list, power verification is performed on the charger to determine a target maximum power allowed for charging using the charger.

[0075] The charger not belonging to the first charger list and the second charger list can mean that the charger belongs to the third charger list in the charger classification list, or that the charger list to which the charger belongs is not determined (i.e., the charger list to which the charger belongs is null).

[0076] If the charger list to which the charger belongs is neither the first charger list nor the second charger list, it can be considered that the charging mode corresponding to the charger is currently lacking, and then the power verification can be performed on the charger to determine the charging mode corresponding to the charger according to the result of the power verification. The power verification on the charger can obtain a target maximum power allowed for charging using the charger, and the target maximum power is a power upper limit that has been verified to enable the charger to provide safe and stable charging service. When the charger charges the electronic device with the target maximum power as the power upper limit, not only the safety of the charging process can be ensured, but also the charging efficiency can be fully utilized to achieve efficient use of energy and fast charging of the device.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the charging control method further includes: controlling the charger to charge based on a third charging strategy, wherein the maximum charging power allowed under the third charging strategy is the target maximum power.

[0078] After the target maximum power is obtained by performing power verification on the charger, the target maximum power can be determined as the maximum charging power allowed under the third charging strategy, and the charger is controlled to charge based on the third charging strategy.

[0079] The above embodiments consider the case that the charger does not belong to the provided preset classification list (i.e., the first charger list and the second charger list), in which case the preset charging strategy (i.e., the first charging strategy and the second charging strategy) is not used, and instead, the charger is subjected to additional power verification, the target maximum power for the connected charger is determined by verifying the actual output capability of the charger, and then the charger is controlled to charge at the target maximum power as the maximum charging power allowed in the charging process. The above embodiments not only enhance the compatibility of the charging control method, but also prevent the charger from damaging the electronic device due to excessively high or low output power, for example, can avoid damaging the electronic device components due to excessively high charger output power, and can also avoid the case that the electronic device continuously overheats and the charging efficiency does not reach the expected effect due to excessively low output power, further protecting the safety and stability of the electronic device and improving the charging experience of the user. It can be seen that the above embodiments further improve the charging control method provided by the present disclosure, making the charging control method more comprehensive and flexible, and better adapting to different types of chargers and better meeting the charging needs of users.

[0080] Figure 3 is a flowchart of power verification of a charger in a charging control method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 3 As shown in the figure, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the power verification of the charger to determine the target maximum power allowed for charging using the charger can include the following steps.

[0081] In step S310, the verification power is increased step by step.

[0082] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a value (e.g., 15W, 20W, etc.) lower than the rated power of the charger can be selected as the initial verification power, and a reasonable power step value (e.g., 3W, 5W, etc.) can be set to update the verification power by the set step value round by round.

[0083] In step S320, the charger is subjected to power verification based on the verification power.

[0084] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, power verification of the charger based on the updated verification power each time can be regarded as a round of power verification. In each round of power verification, the charger can be controlled to use the current verification power to charge the electronic device for a preset time duration (e.g., 10 minutes, 20 minutes, etc.) or in a preset manner (e.g., 10 times of 5-minute charging).

[0085] In step S330, in response to satisfying the verification pass condition, the target maximum power is determined as the maximum power supported by the charger or the electronic device.

[0086] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, whether to continue verification can be determined according to the verification result of the current round of power verification. If the verification result of the current round is passed, the verification power can be increased step by step to enter the power verification of the next round. In the charging process of the round of power verification in which the verification power reaches the verification power upper limit value, if the verification result is passed, it can be determined that the power verification performed on the charger satisfies the verification pass condition, and the target maximum power of the charger can be determined as the verification power upper limit value. The verification power upper limit value is the smaller one of the rated power of the charger and the maximum charging power supported by the electronic device.

[0087] In the example embodiments, the verification result of the current round of power verification can be determined according to the charging condition of the current round of power verification. Specifically, if the charging process of the current round of power verification satisfies the charging stability condition, it can be determined that the verification result of the current round is passed; if the charging process of the current round of power verification does not satisfy the charging stability condition, it can be determined that the verification result of the current round is not passed.

[0088] In the example embodiments, the charging stability condition may, for example, be that no abnormal disconnection event occurs in the charging process, the difference between the maximum voltage and the minimum voltage in the charging process does not exceed the voltage difference threshold, and the like.

[0089] In step S340, in response to not satisfying the verification pass condition, the target maximum power is determined as the verification power before stepping.

[0090] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, if the verification result of the current round is not passed, it can be determined that the power verification performed on the charger does not satisfy the verification pass condition, and the target maximum power of the charger can be determined as the verification power before stepping.

[0091] Through the embodiments, a specific power verification method for the charger is provided. The step-by-step increase of the verification power can comprehensively and effectively evaluate the performance and stability of the charger, so as to determine the target maximum power, thereby not only ensuring the safety of the charger and the electronic device, but also ensuring the reliable operation of the charger under various working conditions. In addition, the initial power value, the stepping value, the verification pass condition, and the power verification method of each round in the method can be set based on the actual situation, so that the power verification method can be flexibly adjusted to meet the verification requirements in actual applications.

[0092] Figure 4 is a flowchart of a charging control method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0093] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 4The steps S410, S420, S430, S440 and S450 in the charging control method shown correspond to Figure 2 The steps S210, S220, S230, S240 and S250 in the charging control method shown correspond to

[0094] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 2 On the basis of the charging control method shown, Figure 4 The charging control method shown can further include the following steps.

[0095] In step S460, in response to the target maximum power being the maximum power supported by the charger or the electronic device, a first correspondence relationship between the charger information and a first charger list is established, and the first correspondence relationship is uploaded to the cloud.

[0096] After determining the target maximum power through power verification, a correspondence relationship between the charger information and different charger lists can be established according to the relationship between the target maximum power and the maximum power supported by the charger or the electronic device. The maximum power supported by the charger or the electronic device is the smaller one of the rated power of the charger and the maximum charging power supported by the electronic device.

[0097] If the determined target maximum power is the same as the maximum power supported by the charger or the electronic device, it means that it is safe and stable to charge the electronic device when the charger is opened to the maximum value within the capability range. Therefore, a first correspondence relationship between the charger information and a first charger list can be established, and the first correspondence relationship can be uploaded to the cloud server for storage.

[0098] In step S470, in response to the target maximum power being less than the maximum power supported by the charger or the electronic device, a second correspondence relationship between the charger information and a second charger list is established, and the second correspondence relationship is uploaded to the cloud.

[0099] If the determined target maximum power is less than the maximum power supported by the charger or the electronic device, it means that the charging power of the charger needs to be limited. Therefore, a second correspondence relationship between the charger information and a second charger list can be established, and the second correspondence relationship can be uploaded to the cloud server for storage.

[0100] Through the present embodiment, the charger classification list can be updated in a timely manner according to the charging verification result of the electronic device on the charger, and the verified charger can be managed in a timely manner. The charger classification list stored in the cloud server can be updated to provide the electronic device with safe and stable charging services.

[0101] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, in response to the target maximum power being less than the maximum power supported by the charger or the electronic device, a correspondence between the charger information and the second charger list is established, and the correspondence is uploaded to the cloud, including: uploading the target maximum power as the set power corresponding to the charger information under the second charging strategy to the cloud.

[0102] After the target maximum power is determined, the specific value of the target maximum power can also be recorded as the set power of the charger in the second charging strategy and uploaded to the cloud server for storage. When other electronic devices use the second charger list again, the set power corresponding to the charger information in the second charging strategy can be used.

[0103] The present embodiment provides an efficient and refined charger management strategy, which not only enriches the information content of the second charger list, but also provides more accurate and personalized power control basis for subsequent charging processes, and provides users with a safer, more efficient, and more personalized charging experience.

[0104] Figure 5 is a flowchart of power verification of a charger in a charging control method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 5 may include the following steps.

[0105] In step S501, the current power Wnow is determined.

[0106] In step S503, it is determined whether the value after stepwise increase of the current power Wnow is greater than the rated power Wmax of the charger; if not, step S505 is performed; if yes, step S513 is performed.

[0107] For example, the step value can be 5W.

[0124] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the charger classification list can be stored on the cloud server. The charger classification list is pre-set, and the charger classification list can include one or more charger lists.

[0126] When the charger is connected to the electronic device, the electronic device can upload the obtained charger information to the cloud server, and the cloud server can compare the charger information and the charger classification list to determine the charger list to which the charger belongs. Then, the cloud server can directly issue the comparison result (i.e., the charger list to which the charger belongs) to the electronic device, so that the electronic device can determine the charger list to which the charger belongs in a convenient manner.

[0127] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the determining of the charger list to which the charger belongs according to the charger information comprises: obtaining a charger classification list from the cloud, the charger classification list storing a correspondence between the charger information and the charger list to which the charger belongs; and determining the charger list to which the charger belongs according to the charger information and the charger classification list.

[0128] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the charger classification list can be stored in the cloud server for downloading and using by the electronic device in response to the connection of the charger.

[0129] In an example embodiment, different users can upload the verification information of their electronic devices for chargers to the cloud server, and the cloud server can aggregate and arrange the collected verification information, and then update the shareable charger classification list, and continuously enrich the charger types involved in the charger classification list.

[0130] In an example embodiment, the charger classification list can also be stored in other electronic devices, and the charger classification list shared by other electronic devices can be obtained by the electronic device when the electronic device is connected to the charger. The charger classification list can also be downloaded by the electronic device from the cloud server or other electronic devices in advance and stored locally, and the charger classification list stored locally can be directly used when the charger is connected.

[0131] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, obtaining the charger classification list from the cloud comprises: determining device type information of the electronic device, and obtaining the charger classification list matching the device type information from the cloud.

[0132] The device type information can be information capable of identifying the electronic device, for example, can be serial number information of the electronic device, or can be manufacturer information and / or product model information of the electronic device. When setting or updating the charger classification list, the correspondence between the charger and the device type information of the electronic device can be set at the same time.

[0133] In an example embodiment, different types of electronic devices can have different charging control modes for the same charger information of the charger.

[0134] For example, for the charger C1 and different types of electronic devices UE1, UE2, assuming that the charger C1 can open the maximum charging power to the rated power of the charger C1 when charging the electronic device UE1, and the maximum charging power needs to be limited to the first set power when charging the electronic device UE2, different charger classification lists can be set for the electronic devices UE1, UE2 respectively, that is, the charger information of the charger C1 can exist in the first charger list matched with the electronic device UE1, and the charger information of the charger C1 can exist in the second charger list matched with the electronic device UE2.

[0135] Through the embodiment, the management and maintenance of the charger classification list can be optimized, when the charger classification list needs to be used, the device type information of the electronic device can be considered, the charger classification list matched with the device type information is obtained from the cloud, it is ensured that each device can be charged in an efficient and safe manner, and the charging experience of the user is further optimized.

[0137] In an example embodiment, the same type of electronic device can limit different degrees of charging power for different charger information of the charger.

[0138] For example, for the electronic device UE1 and different types of chargers C3, C4, assuming that the maximum charging power needs to be limited to the second set power when the charger C3 charges the electronic device UE1, and the maximum charging power needs to be limited to the third set power when the charger C4 charges the electronic device UE1, different set powers can be set for the chargers C3, C4 in the second charger list respectively.

[0139] In an example embodiment, the set power corresponding to the different charger information in the second charger list can be obtained by the user after power verification of different types of chargers and uploaded to the cloud.

[0140] Through the embodiment, the management and maintenance of the second charger list in the charger classification list can be further optimized, the set power corresponding to the charger information is contained in the second charger list, when the charging power of the charger needs to be limited according to the second charger list, the set power corresponding to the charger information in the second charger list can be further queried, and then the charging is performed with the queried set power as the maximum charging power, so that the charger can charge the electronic device in a safe, efficient and adaptive power limiting manner.

[0141] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the second charging strategy corresponds to a plurality of set powers; in response to the charger belonging to the second charger list, the charger is controlled to be charged based on the second charging strategy, including: in response to the charger belonging to the second charger list, receiving a selection operation on the plurality of set powers; according to the selection operation, the charger is controlled to be charged based on the second charging strategy, wherein the maximum charging power allowed under the second charging strategy is the selected set power.

[0143] In an example embodiment, in response to the charger belonging to the second charger list, the option controls corresponding to each set power can be displayed; in response to a selection operation on a target control in the option controls corresponding to the plurality of set powers, a target set power is determined; the charger is controlled to be charged based on the second charging strategy, wherein the maximum charging power allowed under the second charging strategy is the selected target set power.

[0144] In an example embodiment, the user can also configure the processing mode of the plurality of set powers in advance, for example, the minimum value of the plurality of set powers can be selected as the maximum charging power allowed under the second charging strategy, or the power value verified by the most electronic devices in the plurality of set powers can be selected as the maximum charging power allowed under the second charging strategy.

[0149] In an example embodiment, the electronic device can perform over-power verification on the charger in a historical period, and can record the target maximum power of the verified charger as a power record value, that is, the power record value is the maximum charging power allowed under the fourth charging strategy used in the historical period; when the electronic device is connected to the charger of the same model again, and it is determined that the charger belongs to the second charger list, the set power under the second charging strategy and the power record value can be inconsistent, and through the embodiment, the user can be provided with an opportunity to select the fourth charging strategy and the second charging strategy, and the charger is controlled to charge based on the selected fourth charging strategy or the second charging strategy.
