[0031] The present application provides a charging station with a wide range of applicable scenarios and locations, such as hospitals, schools, shared offices, enterprises, public consumption places, outdoor camps, etc. FIG1 is a schematic diagram of the module connection of a charging station provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG1 , the charging station 1 includes:

[0032] Input interface 11, input interface 11 is connected to the external power supply voltage through an adapter cable; illustratively, the adapter cable is fixedly connected to a mains power network such as a wall socket or a power strip, and the input interface is an AC interface;

[0033] The conversion circuit 12 is electrically connected to the input interface 11 and is used to convert the external power supply voltage into a voltage suitable for the internal voltage of the charging station 1. The input interface 11 is connected to the conversion circuit 12 provided inside the charging station 1 to realize the charging and discharging functions. For example, the charging station 1 is configured to draw power from the outside through an AC interface and charge the rechargeable products placed on the charging station 1 through the conversion circuit 12 and the DC interface. The conversion circuit 12 can be configured to convert AC to DC, that is, the power input from the input interface 11 is output through the conversion circuit 12 and the DC interface.

[0034] The power supply system 13 and the functional modules 14 are electrically connected to the input interface 11. The power supply system 13 uses an external power supply voltage to supply power to the functional modules 14 within the charging station 1. The input interface 11 is connected to the power supply system 13 disposed within the charging station 1 to supply power to the various functional modules 14 disposed within the charging station 1, thereby ensuring that the charging station 1 functions normally.

[0035] Among them, the functional module 14 includes a control circuit 141, a memory 142 and a wireless module 143. The control circuit 141 is used to control the charging and discharging of the charging product to realize the charging and discharging management function; the memory 142 is used to store data; data is transmitted between the wireless module 143 and the memory 142; the wireless module 143 is used to upload the collected data to the cloud to realize the data communication function.

[0036] Therefore, the embodiment of the present application provides an intelligent charging station, a charging station system and a control method thereof that integrate charging and discharging management functions, data transmission functions and data communication functions. The charging station provided in the embodiment of the present application can provide charging and discharging functions to charging products, and the charging products can charge one or more various portable electronic devices. During the process of connecting to the charging product to perform the charging and discharging functions, the charging station can transmit the status data of the charging product and the environmental data of the charging station through physical connection or wireless connection, and store them in the memory; and upload various types of data stored in the memory to the cloud through a wireless module to realize the data communication function. Therefore, the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application integrates charging and discharging management functions, data transmission functions and data communication functions, and has a wider range of applications and is more intelligent.

[0037] Based on the above embodiments, the functional module 14 may optionally further include a sensor 144. The type of sensor 144 may be determined in practice based on the specific type of data to be detected. For example, if temperature detection is required, sensor 144 may be a temperature sensor; if humidity detection is required, sensor 144 may be a humidity sensor; if both temperature and humidity detection are required, sensor 144 may include both a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor; if altitude detection is required, sensor 144 may also include an altitude sensor, and so on.

[0038] Optionally, the functional module 14 also includes a data acquisition circuit 145. The charging station 1 can realize the function of managing and controlling the state of the charging station 1 based on the environmental data detected by the sensor 144. In one embodiment, the environmental data can be fed back through the data acquisition circuit 145, and the data is stored in the memory 142, and further sent to the user terminal (for example, a mobile APP) through the wireless module 143 for the user to browse or transfer the data. In another embodiment, the state of the charging station 1 can be further controlled by the feedback and judgment of the environmental detection data. For example, the data acquisition circuit 145 can be used to feed back the data and store it in the memory 142. While the user can browse or transfer the data through the terminal, the data acquisition circuit 145 can be used to feed back to the control circuit 141. The control circuit 141 can control the on and off state of the power supply of the charging station 1 to achieve the customization requirements of the charging station.

[0039] It should be noted that the type of memory 142 in the embodiments of the present application can be determined based on the type of data to be stored. For example, all or part of the collected data is stored in memory 142 via data acquisition circuit 145. The data in memory 142 can be set to be refreshed and cleared periodically to free up storage space, or stored permanently, with a set reminder to update when storage space is insufficient. Memory 142 can be configured as a type of memory 142 mounted on a circuit board, or it can be configured to accept an external memory card.

[0040] In the above embodiments, the types of wireless modules 143 include Bluetooth modules, wireless (Wireless Fidelity, WIFI) networks, cellular networks, Internet of Things (IoT) modules, long-range radio (LORA) modules, etc. Through the wireless module 143, the data stored in the memory 142, or the data collected in real time by the data acquisition circuit 145, can be uploaded to the cloud to realize the process and function of data collection, storage, and analysis. The wireless module 143 is independently powered by the power supply system 13 to ensure that when the input end of the input interface 11 (including the mains power network) has no power, the connection between the wireless module 143 and the cloud is maintained continuously or for a short time to continuously monitor the data and working status of the charging station 1 to prevent the charging station 1 from being disconnected.

[0041] Optionally, the sensor 144 provided in the charging station 1 can also perform environmental monitoring inside the charging station 1, such as monitoring the temperature of high-heating areas in the charging station 1 (for example, the highest temperature point of the power supply system 13), the temperature of electronic components in the charging station 1 (for example, the highest temperature point of the chip), etc. By monitoring and analyzing its own data, it is also used to achieve the purpose of product safety protection.

[0042] Based on the above embodiments, the functional module 14 may optionally further include a digital timer 146. The type of the digital timer 146 in the embodiment of the present application can be set according to actual needs. The embodiment of the present application can collect various charging station 1 data based on the digital timer 146, including timing the time when the charging station 1 is continuously connected to the wall socket, timing the time when the charging station 1 is not performing any operation, etc.

[0043] In one embodiment, the charging station 1 can optionally manage and control the status of the charging station 1 based on data from the digital timer 146. For example, the digital timer 146, in conjunction with the data acquisition circuit 145, can determine that the charging station 1 and the charging products placed on it have not entered an operating state for an extended period of time, or have no output exceeding the static power consumption. During this extended storage state, the control circuit 141 automatically activates the self-discharge function, automatically discharging the charging products to a safe level, such as below 20%, to achieve safe storage, thereby implementing the safety management function of the charging station 1.

[0044] In another embodiment, the charging station 1 can optionally implement the function of managing and controlling the status of the charging station 1 based on the data of the digital timer 146. For example, the digital timer 146 cooperates with the control circuit 141 to set the wall plug disconnection function after determining that it is in a long-term storage state. This setting can ensure that the charging station 1 cannot draw power from the wall plug before the user or system administrator manually turns off the state. While the charging station 1 does not replenish power, it also does not replenish power for the charging products placed on the charging station 1. The power of the entire set of charging stations 1 will not be replenished, but will only consume a small amount of power over time until the power is exhausted and the battery cells are recharged and activated. After the battery cells are reactivated, the charging station 1 and the entire system of charging products can be restored to their previous state. Therefore, the charging station 1 has the function of being recoverable after activation.

[0045] Based on the above embodiments, the functional module optionally further includes a wired module 147. The wired module 147 may include an RJ45 or USB interface, which has data transmission capabilities. In actual applications, data stored in the memory 142 or data collected in real time by the data acquisition circuit 145 can be connected to a mobile device via the wired module 147 and a network cable, and viewed on the mobile device through an app.

[0046] Based on the above embodiments, the charging station 1 can optionally be connected to a terminal, such as a mobile app. In some embodiments, a user or system administrator can wirelessly access various data from the charging station 1 (including data stored in the memory 142 or data collected in real time by the data acquisition circuit 145) using a terminal, such as a mobile app. In other embodiments, the charging station 1 can be connected to a mobile device via a wired module 147 and a network cable, allowing the data to be viewed on the mobile device through the app.

[0047] The present application also provides a charging station system. Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a charging station system provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to Figure 2, the charging station system includes: a charging station 1, a cloud 2, and a terminal 3 provided in any embodiment of the present application. The operating principles and effects of the charging station system are similar to those described in the aforementioned embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0048] FIG3 is a schematic diagram of the structure of another charging station system provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG3 , the charging station system includes:

[0049] Multiple charging stations 1, cloud 2 and terminals 3;

[0050] Multiple charging stations 1 are connected to the cloud 2 for communication; multiple charging stations 1 are connected to the terminal 3 for communication; the cloud 2 is connected to the terminal 3 for communication;

[0051] Among them, during the operation of the charging station 1, the charging station 1 provides charging and discharging management functions to at least one charging product; the charging product transmits data to the charging station 1 through at least one of physical connection and wireless connection to realize the data transmission function; the charging station 1 uploads the collected data to the cloud 2 to realize the data communication function.

[0052] The cloud 2 is configured with a cloud server and cloud storage; the terminal is a terminal device or application APP with information processing capabilities; the user roles of the terminal include: system operator, system administrator, or consumer user, etc. The system operator can be jointly composed of one or more enterprises. For example, multiple charging stations 1 are deployed in a shared office space. The multiple enterprises sharing the space can be set as system operators at the same time and manage all the charging stations 1 set up in the space. The system administrator is the charging station provider and / or cloud service provider. The system administrator can set and manage the functions of the charging station 1 and the open permissions of the functions according to actual needs. The consumer user can be any user within a limited area and under limited usage conditions. They can use the charging station 1 and the charging products on the charging station 1 and set the functions during use through the information processing terminal, including the mobile APP.

[0053] Optionally, the operation terminal 3 can be used to manage the modes of each charging station, monitor the internal operation status of the charging station, query income bills, and monitor the usage status in real time.

[0054] The present application also provides a control method for a charging station system, which is applicable to the charging station system provided in any embodiment of the present application. In conjunction with Figures 1-3, the control method for the charging station system includes:

[0055] Establishing communication connections between multiple charging stations 1 and the cloud 2;

[0056] Establishing communication connections between multiple charging stations 1 and terminals 3;

[0057] Establish a communication connection between the cloud 2 and the terminal 3;

[0058] Among them, during the operation of the charging station 1, the charging station 1 provides charging and discharging management functions to at least one charging product; the charging product transmits data to the charging station 1 through at least one of physical connection and wireless connection to realize the data transmission function; the charging station 1 uploads the collected data to the cloud 2 to realize the data communication function.

[0059] Therefore, the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application integrates charge and discharge management functions, data transmission functions and data communication functions, has a wider range of applications and is more intelligent.

[0060] Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , based on the above embodiments, optionally, the control method further includes using a status collection function, specifically including the following steps:

[0061] Obtaining initial pairing information of charging station 1 and charging products placed on charging station 1;

[0062] The serial number of the charging product placed on each charging station 1 is obtained in real time, and compared with the initial grouping information to determine whether the placement position of the charging product has changed; optionally, the serial number of the charging product placed on each charging station 1 is scanned; illustratively, the charging station 1 obtains the serial number of the charging product through wireless communication; the data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects the serial number of the charging product and stores it in the memory 142; or, the serial number of the charging product is obtained when the interface provided in the charging slot of the charging station 1 is physically connected to the charging product; the data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects the serial number of the charging product and stores it in the memory 142;

[0063] If the placement of the charging product changes, the pairing information of the charging station 1 and the charging product will be refreshed.

[0064] Optionally, in one embodiment, wireless communication can be implemented via a wireless module 143. Wireless communication methods include Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular networks, IoT, LoRa, and others. A system administrator can pair a charging station 1 with a charging product placed on it through backend system operations, perform binding settings, and obtain initial pairing information. For example, by periodically scanning the charging products placed on it through the wireless module 143 installed within the charging station 1, the serial numbers of the charging products currently placed on it can be collected in real time. By comparing and analyzing the serial numbers, it can be determined whether several charging products initially paired are still on the charging station 1. If more than one charging station 1 is placed in a single area or in an open space (e.g., in a shopping mall), users may remove charging products from one charging station 1 and then place them on a second charging station 1. In this case, a re-pairing function can be configured in the charging station system, for example, through Bluetooth scanning, to refresh the pairing and binding data in real time, i.e., refresh the pairing information between the charging station 1 and the charging product. This data is uploaded to a cloud server in real time for the system administrator to review and analyze the data in the backend system.

[0065] Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , based on the above embodiments, the control method may optionally further include a state collection function, specifically including the following steps:

[0066] Collecting usage information of multiple charging products; wherein the usage information includes: at least one of information on the type of interface used by the charging product, the length of time the charging product is used, and the type of protection triggered by the charging product;

[0067] Upload usage information to the cloud2.

[0068] Optionally, the method for collecting usage information includes:

[0069] The charging station 1 obtains usage information of the charging product through wireless communication; the data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects the usage information and stores it in the memory 142;

[0070] Alternatively, the usage information is obtained when a physical connection is made between the interface provided in the charging slot of the charging station 1 and the charging product; the usage information is collected by the data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 and stored in the memory 142 .

[0071] In one embodiment, the charging product is further provided with a second data acquisition circuit and a second memory. The second data acquisition circuit can store usage information such as the specific interface type enabled, usage duration, and protection type during the use of the charging product in the second memory. The charging station 1 can acquire this data information via wireless connections such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular networks, IoT, LORA, etc., and upload it to the cloud 2 to generate charging product usage information, facilitating product upgrades and maintenance. Alternatively, when the charging station 1 establishes a physical connection with the charging product via an interface provided in the charging slot (including a PIN point, USB (e.g., USB-C), or any other interface capable of data transmission and / or charging), the data acquisition circuit 145 of the charging station 1 acquires this data information and uploads it to the cloud 2 to generate charging product usage information, facilitating product upgrades and maintenance. System administrators can view and analyze data in the system backend.

[0072] Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , based on the above embodiments, the control method may optionally further include a real-time monitoring function, specifically including the following steps:

[0073] Collect monitoring information of multiple charging products; wherein the monitoring information includes: at least one of the temperature of the battery cell of the charging product, the temperature at the temperature sampling point set inside the charging product, the remaining power of the battery pack of the charging product, and the battery pack voltage of the charging product; optionally, the charging station 1 obtains the monitoring information through wireless communication; the data acquisition circuit 145 set in the charging station 1 collects the monitoring information and stores it in the memory 142; or, the monitoring information is obtained when the interface set in the charging slot of the charging station 1 is physically connected to the charging product; the data acquisition circuit 145 set in the charging station 1 collects the monitoring information and stores it in the memory 142.

[0074] Upload the monitoring information to the cloud 2.

[0075] In one embodiment, communication is conducted via an interface within the charging slot (including a PIN point, USB (e.g., USB-C), or any other interface capable of data transmission and / or charging) and / or wireless communication (including Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular, IoT, LoRa, etc.) to obtain monitoring information and exchange data in real time. The product data of the rechargeable product plugged back into the charging slot (including cell temperature, temperature at the temperature sampling point, remaining battery charge, battery voltage, etc., with specific requirements pre-configured by the system administrator) can be uploaded in real time via the platform of charging station 1, thereby achieving real-time monitoring of the operating status of charging station 1. System administrators can view and analyze data in the system backend.

[0076] Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , based on the above embodiments, the control method may optionally further include a self-discharge function, specifically comprising the following steps:

[0077] The digital timer 146 provided in the charging station 1 determines whether the charging product placed on the charging station 1 is in a long-term storage state; optionally,

[0078] If so, the charging product will be discharged to a safe level through the control circuit.

[0079] Optionally, the method for determining whether a charging product is in a long-term storage state includes:

[0080] If the charging product does not enter the working state, or the time without output exceeding the static power consumption exceeds the set time, the charging product is in the long-term storage state.

[0081] In one embodiment, a digital timer 146 within the charging station 1, in conjunction with a data acquisition circuit 145, can determine that the charging station 1 and the rechargeable products placed therein are in a long-term storage state if they have not been operating for an extended period of time, or if their output exceeds the quiescent power consumption. Upon this determination, the charging station 1 can be configured to automatically activate a self-discharge function through its control circuit 141, discharging the rechargeable products to a safe level, such as below 20%, thereby achieving safe storage.

[0082] Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , based on the above embodiments, the control method may optionally further support a long-term connection to a wall plug function, specifically comprising the following steps:

[0083] The digital timer 146 provided in the charging station 1 determines whether the charging product placed on the charging station 1 is in a long-term storage state;

[0084] If so, the wall plug function is disconnected, and charging station 1 no longer charges the charging product; until the power of the charging product or charging station 1 is exhausted, the charging product and / or charging station 1 are restored to reactivate the battery cells, and the charging station system returns to its initial state; or, until the power of the charging product and charging station is depleted to a set value, the charging product and charging station 1 are restored to full power, and the charging station 1 returns to its initial state. The set value can be set by the system administrator. This set value prevents the power of the charging product and / or charging station 1 from being exhausted, which is beneficial to improving the life of the battery cells. This is because the life of the battery cells will be shortened when the power of the battery product is completely exhausted.

[0085] In one embodiment, the control method of the charging station system further includes:

[0086] The digital timer 146 provided in the charging station 1 determines whether the charging product placed on the charging station 1 is in a long-term storage state;

[0087] If so, and the time in the long-term storage state exceeds the first time period, the charging product is discharged to a safe power level under the control of the control circuit.

[0088] In yet another embodiment, the control method of the charging station system further includes:

[0089] The digital timer 146 provided in the charging station 1 determines whether the charging product placed on the charging station 1 is in a long-term storage state;

[0090] If so, and the duration of the long-term storage state exceeds the second duration, the wall plug function is cut off, and the charging station 1 no longer charges the charging product; until the power of the charging product and / or the charging station 1 is exhausted, the charging product and / or the charging station 1 resumes power supply to reactivate the battery cell, and the charging station system returns to its initial state; or, until the power of the charging product and / or the charging station 1 is consumed to a set value, the charging product and / or the charging station 1 resumes power supply to restore its full power, and the charging station 1 returns to its initial state.

[0091] The set value is set by the system administrator. The set value prevents the charging product and / or charging station 1 from running out of power, thereby increasing the life of the battery. The second duration is longer than the first duration.

[0092] Optionally, the method for determining whether a charging product is in a long-term storage state includes:

[0093] If the charging product does not enter the working state, or the time without output exceeding the static power consumption exceeds the set time, it is determined that the charging product is in a long-term storage state.

[0094] In one embodiment, a digital timer, in conjunction with control circuit 141, can be configured to disconnect the wall plug after determining a prolonged storage state. This means that charging station 1 cannot draw power from the wall plug unless manually disabled by the user or system administrator. This prevents charging station 1 from recharging any power, nor does it recharge any rechargeable products placed on it. The entire charging station 1 remains charged, but only consumes a small amount of power over time until it is depleted and the battery cells are recharged.

[0095] Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , based on the above embodiments, the control method may optionally further include a charging management function, specifically including the following steps:

[0096] Collecting the real-time power levels of multiple charging products; optionally, the charging station 1 obtains the real-time power levels of the charging products through wireless communication; the data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects the real-time power levels and stores them in the memory 142; or, the real-time power levels are obtained by physically connecting the charging products to the interfaces provided in the charging slots of the charging station 1; the data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects the real-time power levels and stores them in the memory 142;

[0097] Based on the preset charging management strategy, under the control of the control circuit 141, different charging rates are matched to charging products with different real-time power levels to extend the service life of the battery cells and increase the life of the charging products.

[0098] Optionally, the preset charging management strategy is to set at least two power ranges, and the charging rates in different power ranges are different; wherein, the higher the power, the lower the charging rate.

[0099] Exemplarily, the preset charging management strategy includes:

[0100] If the real-time power level of the charging product is greater than a first set power level (e.g., 90% of the total power level), charging is performed at a first charging rate (e.g., 10W);

[0101] If the real-time power level of the charging product is less than the second set power level (for example, 20% of the total power level), charging is performed at the second charging rate (for example, 90W);

[0102] The first set power is greater than the second set power, and the first charging rate is less than the second charging rate.

[0103] In one embodiment, a data acquisition circuit 145 is provided inside the charging station 1 to cooperate with the control circuit 141 provided therein. When a charging product is placed in the charging slot of the charging station 1, the data acquisition circuit 145 can obtain the real-time power level of the charging product in real time. By presetting a charging management strategy (for example, set by a system administrator), under the control of the control circuit 141, the function of adjusting the charging rate of charging products with different power levels can be achieved. For example, in order to meet the user's need for quick access and improve the utilization value of the entire charging station 1, it can be set as follows: when the power level of the charging product is 90%, the charging power is 10W; when the power level of the charging product is 20%, the charging power is 90W. That is, charging products with low power levels replenish their power quickly, and charging products with high power levels replenish their power slowly. This not only meets the user's need for quick access, but also complies with the usage rules of the battery cells.

[0104] It should be noted that the specific values ​​of the first set power and the second set power in the embodiment of the present application can be set as needed in actual applications. In addition, the number of set power values ​​(i.e., the power range) in the embodiment of the present application can be set to one or more different power values ​​according to the actual usage scenario, which can be set by the charging station administrator.

[0105] Continuing to refer to Figures 1-3, based on the above embodiments, optionally, in the process of determining the charging rate, the charging rate is further determined in combination with the temperature of the charging station 1 and / or the charging product, as well as the power level of the charging product. This arrangement allows the temperature and power level to be used as the basis for simultaneous determination, thereby improving system security. Specifically:

[0106] The data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects temperature information and matches the charging rate of the charging product according to the temperature information and the real-time power of the charging product;

[0107] Alternatively, the charging station 1 obtains temperature information of the charging product through wireless communication; the data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects the temperature information and stores it in the memory 142; alternatively, the temperature information is obtained when a physical connection is established between the charging station 1 and the charging product through an interface provided in the charging slot; the data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects the temperature information and stores it in the memory 142; the charging rate of the charging product is matched according to the temperature of the charging product and the real-time power of the charging product.

[0108] Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , based on the above embodiments, optionally, the charging management function further includes:

[0109] Based on the preset charging management strategy, under the control of the control circuit 141, different charging rates are matched for different charging products, and each charging product is charged independently without affecting each other.

[0110] Optionally, the preset charging management strategy may be to obtain a power requirement of a charging product and charge the charging product according to the power requirement.

[0111] Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , based on the above embodiments, the control method may optionally further include an environment detection function. In one embodiment, the method specifically includes the following steps:

[0112] Environmental information is detected by sensors provided in the charging station 1; optionally, the environmental information includes: temperature information, humidity information, smoke concentration information, and environmental altitude information;

[0113] The data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects the environmental information and stores it in the memory 142 .

[0114] Optionally, the method further includes: synchronizing the environmental information to the terminal 3 .

[0115] Optionally, it further includes: feeding back to the control circuit 141 through the data acquisition circuit 145, and the control circuit 141 controls the operating state of the charging station 1; optionally, the operating state of the charging station 1 includes: power on and power off.

[0116] Optionally, the data is fed back to the control circuit 141 through the data acquisition circuit 145, and the control circuit 141 controls the operating state of the charging station 1, including at least one of the following:

[0117] If the detected ambient temperature is greater than the first set temperature, the charging station 1 is controlled to reduce the charging power;

[0118] If the detected ambient temperature is greater than the second set temperature, the charging station 1 is controlled to cut off the power supply;

[0119] If it is detected that the ambient temperature is greater than the third set temperature, the emergency kit set in the charging station 1 is controlled to open and release cooling substances; wherein, the second set temperature is higher than the first set temperature, and the third set temperature is higher than the second set temperature.

[0120] In one embodiment, sensors are installed within the charging station 1. The type of sensor can be customized to the specific type of data to be detected in actual applications. For example, if temperature and humidity detection is required, a humidity sensor and a temperature sensor can be installed within the charging station 1 to monitor temperature and humidity. Alternatively, if altitude detection is required, an altitude sensor can be installed within the charging station 1 to detect altitude. Alternatively, if smoke detection is required, a smoke sensor can be installed within the charging station 1 to detect smoke. When smoke is detected within the charging station 1, the control circuit 141 immediately cuts off input to the charging station 1, stops charging of rechargeable products, and releases the cooling agent in the emergency kit. Simultaneously, an alarm message is sent to the user or system administrator's mobile app.

[0121] In one embodiment, a temperature sensor is installed within the charging station 1 to monitor temperature. The charging station 1 is also equipped with a control circuit 141. When the temperature within the charging station 1 exceeds a certain value (a first set temperature), the control circuit 141 controls the charging station 1 to automatically reduce the charging power. This reduces the charging rate of all rechargeable products, allowing the charging station 1 to continue functioning normally, albeit at a slower rate. When the temperature within the charging station 1 exceeds a slightly higher value (a second set temperature), the control circuit 141 controls the charging station 1 to automatically stop operating, cut off the power supply, and stop charging the charging station 1. Simultaneously, the charging station 1 also stops charging rechargeable products. When the temperature within the charging station 1 exceeds a higher value (a third set temperature), the emergency kit within the charging station 1 automatically opens to release the cooling material stored therein (including dry powder and other cooling materials that are harmless to the human body and the environment), providing early warning, reducing the temperature in advance, and preventing further incidents such as the occurrence of open flames. The above temperature detection data can be set in advance (including through a terminal, such as a mobile app) and controlled by the control circuit 141 of the charging station 1. For example, when the temperature sensor detects that the temperature inside charging station 1 exceeds 100 degrees Celsius, charging station 1 is automatically stopped, the power supply is cut off, and charging station 1 is no longer charged. At the same time, charging station 1 no longer charges rechargeable products. Optionally, when the temperature inside charging station 1 exceeds 130 degrees Celsius, the emergency kit inside charging station 1 can be opened to release the cooling material stored therein (including dry powder and other cooling materials that are harmless to the human body and the environment), thereby achieving the effects of early warning, early cooling, and prevention of further events such as the generation of open flames. At the same time, the alarm information is sent to the mobile APP of the user or system administrator.

[0122] Optionally, if only environmental detection data needs to be collected, it can be fed back through the data collection circuit 145 and stored in the memory 142. The user can browse or transfer the data through a terminal, such as a mobile APP.

[0123] Optionally, if it is necessary not only to collect environmental detection data but also to further control the state of the charging station 1 through feedback and judgment of the environmental detection data, the data can be stored in the memory 142 through feedback from the data acquisition circuit 145. When the user browses or transfers the data through a terminal, such as a mobile app, the data acquisition circuit 145 can be fed back to the control circuit 141 to control the power on and off state of the charging station 1, thereby realizing the customized needs of the user or system administrator, and facilitating the safety, usage strategy, working hours, or other aspects of the use of the charging station 1 in different environments.

[0124] Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , based on the above embodiments, the control method may optionally further include an environment detection function and an early warning mechanism function. In one embodiment, the method specifically includes the following steps:

[0125] Real-time detection of operating parameter information of charging station 1;

[0126] The data acquisition circuit 145 provided in the charging station 1 collects the operating parameter information, stores it in the memory 142 and / or uploads it to the cloud 2 .

[0127] Optionally, after real-time detection of the operating parameter information of the charging station 1, the method further includes:

[0128] The control circuit 141 provided in the charging station 1 compares the operating parameter information with the preset data model, and issues an alarm if the data is abnormal;

[0129] And / or, after an abnormality is found through analysis by the cloud 2, a warning message is sent to the terminal 3.

[0130] Optionally, the specific data types to be detected can be customized in actual applications. For example, a temperature sensor can be installed within charging station 1 to monitor temperature. For example, if real-time monitoring of temperature, voltage, current, and other data is required, data acquisition circuit 145 provided within charging station 1 can store the real-time monitored data in memory 142 or wirelessly upload it to the cloud in real time. Simultaneously, control circuit 141 within charging station 1 compares the real-time data with a pre-set data model. Based on the model comparison, any data anomalies detected can be promptly alerted to the administrator to prevent potential safety hazards. Alerts can be provided by installing a buzzer within charging station 1 to distinguish between different data types and generate different sound alarms. Alternatively, the alarm can be fed back wirelessly to a cloud database. Upon analysis and detection of anomalies, the alarm can be sent to a terminal, such as a mobile app, to alert the user or system administrator, achieving a warning.

[0131] Optionally, the charging station 1 can be connected to a mobile APP via wireless or wired means, and users or system administrators can use the mobile APP to obtain and analyze real-time data and perform basic management operations on the charging station 1.

[0132] To facilitate management of Charging Station 1, system administrators can deploy a policy for confirming access to charging products. For example, when a user wishes to access a charging product and removes it from Charging Station 1, a multi-digit password will be displayed on the charging product, which they then confirm by entering it on the mobile app. Once the mobile app and the charging product are paired via a wireless connection such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular, IoT, or LoRa, the pairing is confirmed successful and can be used normally. Charging Station 1 can also monitor the access process. The entire process of confirming the serial number of the charging product being removed and used, as well as any issues encountered during the process, will be recorded.

[0133] To facilitate management of charging station 1, the system administrator can deploy policies for charging product usage. Based on these policies, the administrator can use the terminal to monitor and retrieve data from modules including charging station 1's mode management, operating status monitoring, revenue billing inquiries, real-time usage monitoring, and the email system. The administrator can also select modules available to users as user permissions. For example, the system administrator can use terminal 3 to manage the mode. The system administrator can deploy usage policies, including user-pay systems, user-free systems, and different pricing for different locations. For example, the system administrator can use terminal 3 to monitor the operating status and obtain real-time information about the normal operation of any charging station 1 at any location, thereby performing basic security monitoring. For example, the system administrator can use terminal 3 to verify revenue bills. When the system administrator sets the user-pay mode, the system administrator can use the terminal to verify revenue bills for each time period. For example, the system administrator can use the terminal to monitor and retrieve data from charging station 1 and charging products in real time, facilitating analysis of the safety status of charging station 1 and the usage status of charging products. The system administrator can also configure email reminders during user usage. For example, a user needs to register or pay for their use, and the registration information and payment information can be pushed to the user's device and the system administrator's device through the email system.

[0134] Continuing with Figures 1-3 , based on the above embodiments, the charging station 1 and the charging product optionally further include a firmware upgrade function. Exemplarily, after receiving a charging station upgrade instruction, the charging station 1 communicates with the cloud 2 or connects to the administrator app via a network cable to obtain a firmware upgrade installation package, and then autonomously performs the firmware upgrade. The charging station upgrade instruction received by the charging station 1 may be sent to the charging station 1 by a system administrator via a cloud server or a mobile app. After receiving a charging product upgrade instruction, the charging station 1 communicates with the cloud 2 or connects to the administrator app via a network cable to obtain a firmware upgrade installation package. The charging product autonomously performs the firmware upgrade when wirelessly communicating with the charging station 1 via the wireless module 143 or connected to the charging port via the wired module 147. The charging product upgrade instruction received by the charging station 1 may be sent to the charging station 1 or the charging product by a system administrator via a cloud server or a mobile app. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application can realize the background connection upgrade of the charging station 1, and realize the connection between the charging product and the charging station for firmware version upgrade.

[0135] The present application also provides a charging station. Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a charging station provided by the present application, and Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a charging product inserted into the charging station provided by the present application. Referring to Figures 4 and 5, the charging station 1 includes:

[0137] The movable robotic arm 40 has its two ends fixed to both sides of the body 10, and the length direction of the robotic arm 40 is consistent with the arrangement direction of the charging slot 20; when the robotic arm 40 is in the locked state, part of the structure is located above the charging slot 20, locking the charging product 50 placed in the charging slot 20 in the charging slot 20.

[0138] The embodiment of the present application realizes a mechanical lock function by arranging a movable mechanical arm 40 on the charging station 1. The movable mechanical arm 40 can be used to fix the charging product 50 placed on the charging station 1 to prevent it from falling from the charging station 1 during charging or transportation, thereby ensuring the safety of the charging product 50; the embodiment of the present application can prevent the charging products placed on the charging station 1 from being stolen based on mechanical principles, which is beneficial for system administrators to manage products; it can prevent the charging products 50 placed on the charging station 1 from being accessed by users during non-working hours, which is beneficial for system administrators to manage products; the embodiment of the present application can prevent the charging products 50 placed on the charging station 1 from being directly accessed by users without authorized management in a shared environment or any other possible open environment, which is beneficial for system administrators to manage products.

[0139] Based on the above embodiments, optionally, the charging slots 20 are arranged in at least one row; the number of the movable robotic arms 40 is at least one; and the movable robotic arms 40 correspond to a row of charging slots 20 .

[0140] Based on the above embodiments, there are many ways to set up the movable robotic arm 40, which are described in detail below.

[0144] Optionally, the connecting rod 43 can move back and forth through the slide 42 (including a rubber damping material), performing lifting and lowering movements, thereby extending and retracting the locking arm, thereby opening and closing the electronic mechanical lock. After the user or system administrator operates the lock at close range through any of the above methods, the connecting rod 43 moves in the slide 42, ultimately achieving the effect of extending and retracting the locking arm, thereby opening and closing the movable mechanical arm 40. The movable mechanical arm 40 can also be remotely controlled (including through Bluetooth connection or terminal connection, etc.). After the user or system administrator operates the lock remotely through any of the above methods, the connecting rod 43 moves in the slide 42, ultimately achieving the effect of extending and retracting the locking arm, thereby opening and closing the movable mechanical arm 40.

[0145] In another embodiment of the present application, optionally, the slide 42 is a straight slide 42; the connecting rod 43 performs telescopic movement in the slide 42; in the locked state, the connecting rod 43 is located above the charging slot 20, and the distance from the charging slot 20 is a first spacing, locking the charging product 50 placed in the charging slot 20 in the charging slot 20; in the unlocked state, the connecting rod 43 is located above the charging slot 20, and the distance from the charging slot 20 is a second spacing; wherein the second spacing is greater than the first spacing.

[0146] Based on the above embodiments, the body 10 may optionally be provided with a data transmission interface connected to a memory device within the charging station; the data transmission interface is used to transfer data within the memory device. The data transmission interface may be a network cable jack or a USB-type interface with data transmission capabilities. Optionally, during use, the charging station administrator may connect a mobile terminal device, such as a PC, to the charging station via a network cable or data cable, enabling data transmission, thereby accessing all information regarding the charging station and charging products stored within the charging station memory device.

[0147] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the shape of the charging station 1, the shape of the charging slot 20, the number of charging slots 20, the type of charging interface 30 in the charging slot 20, and the shape of the charging product 50 can all be set according to actual needs.

[0148] Based on the above embodiments, the present embodiment optionally provides a charging slot 20 having a predetermined shape. If the charging product 50 matches the shape of the charging slot 20, it can be inserted into the charging slot 20. At the same time, if the charging interface of the charging product 50 matches the charging interface 30 of the charging station 1, the charging station 1 and the charging product 50 are said to be paired. For paired charging products 50, the charging station can read the pairing information.

[0149] Optionally, for a non-matching charging product 50, if the charging product 50 can be placed in the charging slot 20 and the charging interface of the charging product 50 matches the charging interface 30 of the charging station 1, the charging product 50 can draw power through the charging station 1, but the pairing information cannot be read.

In open mode, any charging product 50, as long as its charging interface is compatible with the charging interface 30 of the charging station 1, can be charged using the charging station 1, achieving basic charging functions. However, normal communication information acquisition and management are generally not possible. In restricted mode, only the corresponding charging product 50 can draw power from the charging station 1.

[0151] Based on the above embodiments, the charging station 1 may optionally be provided with indicator lights on its body 10. The color and number of the indicator lights can be set as needed, and the indicator lights can be controlled by the control circuit 141. Based on the data collected by various sensors 144, after comparing the information with a preset alarm model to generate a warning message, the indicator lights can flash in different colors and at different frequencies according to the different alarm messages, alerting the user or system administrator. For example, when the data from the smoke sensor in sensor 144 exceeds the standard, a smoke alarm should be generated, and the control circuit 141 will control a red indicator light to be constantly on. For another example, when the data from the temperature sensor in sensor 144 exceeds the standard, a high temperature alarm should be generated, and the control circuit 141 will control a red indicator light to be constantly on. For another example, when the data from both the temperature sensor and the smoke sensor in sensor 144 exceed the standard, a high temperature and smoke alarm should be generated, and the control circuit 141 will control two red indicator lights to be constantly on.

[0152] It should be understood that the various forms of the processes shown above can be used to reorder, add, or delete steps. For example, the steps described in this application can be performed in parallel, sequentially, or in a different order, as long as the desired results of the technical solutions of this application can be achieved.
