Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Battery swapping stations often face limited resources, failing to meet user demands and resulting in reduced user experience due to insufficient battery availability and congestion.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for publishing resource information by acquiring and generating battery swapping demand and station information, allowing for diversified resource information publication to meet user and operator demands, optimize resource utilization, and improve user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If battery swapping stations operate with limited battery resources, then the station can maintain simpler inventory management, but user demand cannot be met and user experience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a multi-functional resource information publishing system that serves multiple purposes: it publishes real-time battery availability, provides demand prediction, offers routing guidance to different swapping stations, and enables dynamic resource allocation. This single system performs multiple functions to overcome the limitation of limited battery resources at individual stations.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a cloud-based resource information publishing apparatus as an intermediary between users and battery swapping stations. This intermediary collects data from multiple stations, processes it through demand prediction algorithms, and provides comprehensive resource information to users, enabling them to make informed decisions about where to swap batteries.
2Adaptability or versatility
If battery swapping stations publish only basic resource status, then the information system remains simple, but it cannot provide diversified information to meet different user and operator requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments resource information into multiple categories: real-time battery availability, demand prediction results, station capacity information, and routing guidance. Each category serves specific user or operator needs. The system publishes these segmented information types through appropriate channels to different stakeholders.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds temporal dimension by publishing both real-time battery status and predicted future availability. It also adds a spatial dimension by providing routing guidance to different swapping stations based on their resource status. This multi-dimensional information approach comprehensively meets diverse requirements without proportionally increasing system complexity.
3Productivity
If battery swapping stations do not predict demand, then the system operates with simpler real-time data only, but resource allocation efficiency decreases and congestion increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements demand prediction functionality that performs preliminary analysis of future battery swapping requirements. By predicting demand in advance, the system can proactively guide users to stations with adequate resources before congestion occurs, improving resource utilization and reducing waiting times.
