Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , FIG. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a charging method performed on a terminal 100 provided by the first embodiment. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the environment in which the charging method operates. The terminal 100 is a rechargeable terminal, which has a charging interface 10 . The terminal 100 can be electrically plugged into the charging assembly 200 through the charging interface 10 to access the external power source 300 . The charging assembly 200 includes a charging plug 20 matching with the charging interface 10 , and is used for electrically plugging into the charging interface 10 . In some feasible embodiments, the charging assembly 200 is electrically connected to the external power source 300 through the external transmission line 400 . In some other feasible embodiments, the charging assembly 200 integrates the transmission line 400 and is electrically connected to the external power source 300 through the transmission line 400 . The charging interface 10 may be, but not limited to, a USB interface, for example, a Micro USB interface, a USB Type C interface, or a Lightning interface.

When the terminal 100 executes the charging method, it can control the on-off between the charging component 200 and the external power supply 300 according to the power of the terminal 100 so that the terminal 100 is electrically connected to the external power supply 300 or is electrically disconnected from the external power supply 300, so that the terminal 100 implement charging or terminate charging. In one embodiment, the method includes the following steps.

Step S101 , detecting the state of the charging assembly 200 . Wherein, the charging component 200 establishes a communication connection with the terminal 100 through the charging interface 10 . The state of the charging assembly 200 includes a first state and a second state. The charging component 200 establishes an electrical connection between the terminal 100 and the external power source 300 to charge the terminal 100 in the first state. In the second state, the charging component 200 disconnects the electrical connection between the terminal 100 and the external power source 300 to terminate charging the terminal 100 . It can be understood that when the charging component 200 is in the first state, the terminal 100 is in a charging state. When the charging component 200 is in the second state, the terminal 100 is in a non-charging state. In this embodiment, whether the detection charging component 200 is in the first state or the second state can be determined by detecting whether the terminal 100 is charged or not. Specifically, step S101 may include: detecting whether it is charged or not; if it is charged, it is detected that the state of the charging assembly 200 is the first state; if it is not charged, it is detected that the state of the charging assembly 200 is the second state. In some other feasible embodiments, the terminal 100 can also obtain the state information sent by the electronic component 200 to detect whether the charging component 200 is in the first state or the second state, and the state information is used to indicate the current state of the charging component 200 .

Step S102 , detecting the current power level of the terminal 100 . The current battery capacity of the terminal 100 can be obtained by detecting the battery capacity of the terminal 100 . The current power level can be represented by a percentage, for example, the current power level can be 80%, 100% and so on. Detecting the current battery level of the terminal 100 can determine whether the terminal 100 needs to be charged.

Step S103 , according to the state of the charging component 200 and the current battery capacity of the terminal 100 , send a corresponding control command to the charging component 200 , so as to control the charging component 200 to enter the first state or the second state. In the above embodiment, it is possible to detect the state of the charging component 200 to determine whether the terminal 100 is in a charging state or a non-charging state, and to determine whether the terminal 100 needs to be charged by detecting the current power of the terminal 100, so as to control whether the charging component 200 enters the first state or the second state. The second state is whether to charge the terminal 100 or not to charge the terminal 100, so as to prevent the terminal 100 from being overcharged.

Specifically, in this step, the control instruction includes a termination instruction and a charging instruction. When the charging component 200 is in the first state and the current power of the terminal 100 reaches the preset overcharge limit, a termination instruction is sent to the charging component 200 to control the charging component 200 to switch to the second state. The limit overcharge amount is set according to the fully charged electric quantity of the battery, and is set at 100% in this embodiment. In some feasible embodiments, it can also be set to 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, etc. It can be understood that when the charging component 200 is in the first state and the current power of the terminal 100 (the terminal 100 is in the charging state) reaches the preset limit overcharge amount, the charging of the terminal 100 is terminated, so as to prevent the battery of the terminal 100 from being overcharged.

When the charging component 200 is in the second state and the current power of the terminal 100 is lower than the preset overcharge limit, a charging command is sent to the charging component 200 to control the charging component 200 to switch to the first state. It can be understood that when the charging component 200 is in the second state and the current power of the terminal 100 (the terminal 100 is in the non-charging state) is lower than the preset limit overcharge amount, the terminal 100 is charged. For example, after the terminal 100 is fully charged and the charging is terminated, the terminal 100 is still electrically plugged into the charging component 200 , and when the power of the terminal 100 is lower than the overcharge limit, the terminal 100 is recharged. In this way, the power of the user's terminal 100 can always reach a better power state.

Please refer to FIG. 3 , which is a schematic flowchart of the charging method of the second embodiment. The difference between the charging method of the second embodiment and the charging method of the first embodiment is that the charging method of the second embodiment further includes:

Step S305, if the current battery level of the terminal 100 is lower than the preset limit low battery level, output a charging reminder, wherein the preset limit low battery level is lower than the preset limit overcharge level. In this embodiment, the limit low battery can be set to 20%, 10% and so on.

The above embodiments can prompt the user to charge when the battery of the terminal 100 is low, so as to prevent the battery performance of the terminal 100 from being affected by the low battery of the terminal 100 .

Please refer to FIG. 4 , which is a schematic flowchart of the charging method provided by the third embodiment. The difference between the charging method of the third embodiment and the charging method of the first embodiment is that the charging method of the third embodiment further includes the following steps before the step of detecting the state of the charging assembly 200 .

Step S401 , detecting whether a charging communication request sent by the charging component 200 is received. The communication request is sent by the charging component 200 when it is electrically connected to the terminal 100 and received through the charging interface 10 . This step is implemented based on the communication protocol of the charging interface. For example, if the charging interface 10 is a USB interface, then this step is implemented based on the AOA protocol (Android Open Accessory Protocol, Open Accessory Protocol) of the USB interface. The charging communication request includes relevant information for invoking the charging method.

Step S403, if the communication request is received, establish a communication connection with the charging assembly 200 in response to the charging communication request to communicate with the charging assembly 200 . In this step, the terminal 100 receives the charging communication request, and sends corresponding response information in response to the charging communication request to establish a communication connection with the charging component 200 .

In the above embodiment, the terminal 100 establishes a communication connection with the charging component 200 by using the protocol of the charging interface 10, and the charging method can be executed quickly.
