Leased Vehicle Power Storage Collection After Body Break Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The challenge of facilitating the collection of a leased power storage from a vehicle when the vehicle's body is broken, as existing technologies fail to identify and manage the owner of the power storage separately from the vehicle owner, leading to difficulties in collecting the power storage after a vehicle accident.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for managing power storage that includes determining the controllability of the power storage post-accident, setting an output limit if controllable, and transmitting collection requests to the power storage owner, along with a computer apparatus and vehicle configuration to facilitate the collection process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If the power storage is leased separately from the vehicle body, then the user can use the vehicle with low cost, but the owner of the power storage cannot be specified when the vehicle is broken, making it difficult to collect the power storage
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the vehicle into two independent parts: the vehicle body and the power storage. The power storage has its independent identification information and management system, allowing it to be leased, tracked, and collected separately from the vehicle body. This segmentation enables the power storage owner to specify and identify the power storage even when the vehicle is broken or involved in an accident.
2Ease of manufacture
If the power storage is leased separately from the vehicle body, then the user can use the vehicle with low cost, but the power storage may be collected together with the body and disposed of, leading to loss of power storage
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-setting identification information for the power storage and establishing a management system that tracks the power storage's location and status. When a vehicle accident occurs, the system can automatically detect the situation and notify the power storage owner before the power storage is disposed of with the vehicle body, allowing the owner to retrieve it in time.

AI summary
A method of managing a power storage includes determining, when break of a body of a vehicle including a leased power storage is sensed, whether or not the power storage is in a controllable state, setting an output limit of the power storage in the vehicle when it is determined that the power storage is in the controllable state, and transmitting a collection request signal that requests collection of the power storage from the vehicle to a terminal of an owner of the power storage when break of the body is sensed.
