Figure 2 is a schematic flowchart of a method for automatically opening a charging port cover provided by an embodiment of the present application. The automatic opening method of the charging port cover in Figure 2 can be applied to the mobile terminal or car in Figure 1 to realize the automatic opening of the charging port cover.

As shown in Figure 2, the automatic opening method of the charging port cover includes:

S201, when using a mobile terminal to connect to a commercial charging pile for charging, obtain the usage status of the charging pile, which usage status includes the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun;

S202, detect whether a connection is established between the mobile terminal and the vehicle;

S203, when the mobile terminal is connected to the vehicle, forward the plugging and unplugging status of the charging gun on the charging pile to the vehicle;

S204, when the vehicle receives the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun and the charging gun is in the pull-out status, the charging port cover of the vehicle is controlled to automatically open.

According to the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, when a mobile terminal is used to connect to a commercial charging pile for charging, the usage status of the charging pile is obtained, and the usage status includes the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun; it is detected whether there is a connection between the mobile terminal and the vehicle. Establish a connection; when the mobile terminal is connected to the vehicle, the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun on the charging pile is forwarded to the vehicle; when the vehicle receives the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun and the charging gun is in the pull-out status, it controls the vehicle's The charging port cover opens automatically, thus realizing the intelligent opening of the car charging port cover when using a commercial charging pile for charging. Manual operation is not required, reducing the trouble of manual operation and making the car more intelligent.

In the above step S201, the user can use a mobile terminal to log in to the backend server of the charging pile. Since the backend server is connected to the charging pile and can obtain relevant information about the charging pile, such as the usage status of the charging pile, the backend server can charge the battery to the charging pile. The usage status of the pile is sent to the mobile terminal.

In some embodiments, in step S201, when using a mobile terminal to connect to a commercial charging pile for charging, obtaining the usage status of the charging pile includes: when logging into the server of the charging pile on the mobile terminal based on pre-registered user information, determining The target charging pile to be used for charging, and read the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun on the target charging pile; send the user information logged in to the server and the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun to the mobile terminal corresponding to the user information, and the mobile terminal includes a mobile phone , the user information includes a mobile phone number; the mobile terminal receives a notification of logging in to the server based on the user information and the plug and unplug status of the charging gun on the target charging pile.

Specifically, when using a commercial charging pile for charging for the first time, the user needs to register. Generally, users can use their mobile phone number and other information to register. When the registration is successful, the user can log in according to the registered mobile phone number, so that the backend server can send the plug and unplug status of the charging gun on the charging pile the user wants to use to the mobile phone with the mobile phone number. In this embodiment, the mobile terminal is preferably a mobile phone. Of course, in actual use, it may also be an electronic device such as a tablet computer or a smart wearable device, which is not limited in this application.

In addition, when the user registers, the user type can also be set in the registration content. The user type includes car owners and non-car owners, or a user type confirmation request can be popped up after the user logs in to the backend server to allow the user to confirm. In practical applications, the mobile terminal can notify the vehicle to control the charging port cover accordingly according to the type of user logged in to the backend server of the charging pile.

For example, in one embodiment, when logging into the server of the charging pile on the mobile terminal based on pre-registered user information, it also includes: based on the pre-registered user information, the server determines the type of user who logs in to the server, and the user type includes the car owner and Non-car owner; the server also sends the user type that logs into the server to the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal forwards the user type to the vehicle; when the vehicle receives that the user type that logs into the backend server is the car owner, it receives the charging gun on the charging pile forwarded by the mobile terminal The plug-in and pull-out status of the vehicle is controlled, and the charging port cover of the vehicle is automatically opened according to the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun; when the vehicle receives that the user type logging into the server is a non-car owner, the vehicle is controlled to issue a charging port cover opening prompt of a preset duration; monitoring Whether any user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt within the preset time period: If a user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt, the vehicle's charging port cover is controlled to close automatically; if no user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt, then When the preset time expires, the charging port cover of the vehicle is controlled to open automatically.

Specifically, the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun includes the plug-in status and the pull-out status. When the charging gun is removed from the charging pile, the charging gun is in the pull-out status. When the charging gun is inserted into the charging pile, the charging gun is plugged in. gun status. The backend server of the charging pile can read the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging guns on each charging pile connected to it, and when the user logs in to the back-end server, the plug-in/unplug status of the charging guns on each charging pile is sent to the customer.

When the user type who logs in to the background server of the charging pile is the car owner, the vehicle receives the plug-in and unplug status of the charging gun forwarded by the mobile terminal. If the charging gun is in the unplugged state, the vehicle controls the charging port cover to open automatically and starts a countdown. When the countdown expires , if it is detected that there is no charging gun charging the vehicle, the charging port cover will be closed; if it is detected that there is a charging gun charging the vehicle, the charging port cover will be kept open.

When the user type who logs in to the backend server of the charging pile is a non-car owner, the vehicle will issue a prompt for opening the charging port cover of a preset duration. The prompt method includes but is not limited to lights, sounds, etc. During the prompt period, if the user responds to the prompt, the response method Including but not limited to touching the charging port cover, etc., the charging port cover of the vehicle is controlled to close automatically, that is, the charging port cover is not opened; if the user does not respond to the prompt, the vehicle is controlled after the prompt ends, that is, when the preset time period expires. The charging port cover opens automatically, that is, open the charging port cover for charging.

In the embodiment of this application, when logging into the server of the charging pile on the mobile terminal based on the pre-registered user information, the server determines the user type logging in to the server based on the pre-registered user information. The user type includes car owners and non-car owners; the server also provides The mobile terminal sends the user type that logs into the server, and the mobile terminal forwards the user type to the vehicle; when the vehicle receives that the user type that logs into the backend server is the car owner, it receives the plug-and-unplug status of the charging gun on the charging pile forwarded by the mobile terminal, and Control the vehicle's charging port cover to automatically open according to the plug-in and unplug state of the charging gun; when the vehicle receives the user type that logs into the server as a non-car owner, control the vehicle to issue a preset time period for opening the charging port cover; monitor Whether any user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt: If a user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt, the vehicle's charging port cover will be controlled to close automatically; if no user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt, when the preset time expires , controls the automatic opening of the vehicle's charging port cover, adds a method of controlling the opening of the charging port cover, and avoids interference with the charging port cover opening control if non-car owners use charging piles to charge other vehicles and other non-charging purposes.

In the above step S202, the connection between the mobile terminal and the vehicle is preferably a wireless connection. Considering the application scenario shown in Figure 1, the connection established between the mobile terminal 4 and the car 1 can be a short-distance wireless communication connection or a long-distance communication connection. Wireless communication connection. When a connection is established between the mobile terminal 4 and the car 1, the mobile terminal 4 forwards the plug-in and unplug status of the charging gun and other information received from the charging pile backend server to the vehicle, or the mobile terminal 4 can also obtain the vehicle from the car 1 It will judge the remaining power information and notify the vehicle to control the charging port cover based on the judgment result.

For example, in one embodiment, when the mobile terminal is connected to a vehicle, the method further includes: obtaining vehicle information, where the vehicle information includes vehicle remaining power information; determining whether the vehicle remaining power information is less than or equal to a preset power threshold; if so , when the mobile terminal receives that the charging gun is in the unplugged state, it notifies the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover; if not, when logging into the server of the charging pile on the mobile terminal based on the pre-registered user information, it notifies the vehicle to issue a preset duration The charging port cover opening prompt; monitor whether a user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt within the preset time; if a user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt, control the vehicle's charging port cover to automatically close; if no user responds When prompted to open the charging port cover, the vehicle's charging port cover is controlled to open automatically when the preset time expires.

Specifically, the electric power threshold may be a preset electric power value based on user experience or experimental results, or it may be a new electric power value obtained by adjusting the preset electric power value according to vehicle conditions. In this regard, the embodiment of the present application No restrictions.

Combined with Figure 1, the mobile terminal obtains the remaining power information of the vehicle 1. Assume that the preset power threshold is P. When it is detected that the remaining power information of the vehicle is less than or equal to P, the mobile terminal monitors the information received after the user logs in to the backend server of the charging pile. If the mobile terminal receives the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun and the charging gun is in the unplugged state, the mobile terminal 4 forwards the charging gun to the car 1 in the unplugged state to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover. ; If the mobile terminal receives the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun and the charging gun is in the plug-in status, it will continue to monitor the plug-in and pull-out status of the charging gun received after the user logs in to the backend server of the charging pile. In addition, when it is detected that the remaining power information of the vehicle is greater than P, when logging into the server of the charging pile on the mobile terminal based on the pre-registered user information, the mobile terminal notifies the vehicle to issue a charging port cover opening prompt of a preset duration. The prompt method includes: But not limited to lights, sounds, etc., during the prompt period, if the user responds to the prompt, the response method includes but is not limited to touching the charging port cover, etc., the charging port cover of the vehicle will be controlled to automatically close, that is, the charging port cover will not be opened; if the user If you do not respond to the prompt, after the prompt ends, that is, when the preset time expires, the charging port cover of the vehicle is controlled to open automatically, that is, the charging port cover is opened for charging.

The embodiment of the present application obtains vehicle information when the mobile terminal is connected to the vehicle. The vehicle information includes vehicle remaining power information; determines whether the vehicle remaining power information is less than or equal to the preset power threshold; if so, when the mobile terminal receives When the charging gun is in the unplugged state, the vehicle is notified to automatically open the charging port cover; if not, when the server of the charging pile is logged in on the mobile terminal based on the pre-registered user information, the vehicle is notified to issue a preset time period for opening the charging port cover. ;Monitor whether any user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt within the preset time period; if a user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt, control the vehicle's charging port cover to automatically close; if no user responds to the charging port cover opening prompt , then when the preset time expires, the charging port cover of the vehicle is controlled to open automatically, thereby improving the accuracy of the charging port cover opening control and avoiding the accidental opening of the charging port cover.

In the above step S203, since the entrance to log in to the charging pile backend service is often the charging pile provider's own system entrance, forwarding information to the vehicle or obtaining vehicle-related information cannot be done directly from the backend server. Therefore, the rules for receiving and forwarding the charging pile usage status can be pre-set in the car's vehicle management application according to the API (i.e. application programming interface) of each charging pile APP, so that when the user uses the car's vehicle management application to establish a connection with the vehicle , you can promptly obtain the notification of the user logging into the backend server of the charging pile and the usage status of the charging pile sent by the backend server. Of course, the specific implementation means of receiving the usage status of the charging pile on the mobile terminal and forwarding it to the vehicle is not limited to the above method, other technical means can also be used, and the embodiments of this application are not limited to this.

When the mobile terminal establishes a connection with the vehicle, if the usage status of the charging pile, including the plug-in/unplug status of the charging gun, is received, it will be forwarded to the vehicle.

For example, in one embodiment, forwarding the plug-and-unplug status of the charging gun on the charging pile to the vehicle in step S203 includes: determining the connection mode between the mobile terminal and the vehicle, which connection mode includes short-range wireless connection and long-range wireless connection. connection; when there is a short-distance wireless connection between the mobile terminal and the vehicle, the plugging and unplugging status of the charging gun on the charging pile is forwarded to the vehicle; when there is a long-distance wireless connection between the mobile terminal and the vehicle, the vehicle's positioning information and The location of the charging pile; based on the location of the charging pile and the positioning information of the vehicle, determine whether the vehicle is near the charging pile; if so, forward the plug and unplug status of the charging gun on the charging pile to the vehicle; if not, pop up on the mobile terminal Whether to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover, and determine the opening and closing of the vehicle charging port cover based on the user's response on the mobile terminal to the prompt notifying the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover.

Specifically, since short-distance wireless connections are limited to short-distance connections, when a short-distance wireless connection is established between a mobile terminal and a vehicle and the vehicle is near the mobile terminal, it can be considered that the vehicle has charging needs, and the charging pile is directly connected to the vehicle. The plug and unplug status of the charging gun is forwarded to the vehicle. When a long-distance wireless connection is established between the mobile terminal and the vehicle, it is uncertain whether the vehicle is near the mobile terminal. Therefore, the positioning information of the vehicle is obtained to determine the location of the vehicle. The location of each charging pile is fixed. When the user logs in to charge When logging into the background server, the location of the charging pile can be obtained from the background server to determine whether the location of the vehicle is close to the position of the charging pile; or, it can also be used to identify whether there are charging piles logged in by the user based on the location of the vehicle. If If yes, it will be judged that the vehicle is near the charging pile; if not, it will be judged that the vehicle is not near the charging pile. Among them, if the vehicle is near the charging pile, the plug-in and unplug status of the charging gun on the charging pile will be forwarded to the vehicle; if the vehicle is not near the charging pile, a prompt will pop up on the mobile terminal whether to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover, so that The user confirms the selection. If the user chooses to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover, the first command is sent to the vehicle to control the opening of the charging port cover. If the user chooses not to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover, a second command is sent to the vehicle. command to keep the vehicle control charging port cover closed. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application sends different notifications to the vehicle through different connection methods between the mobile terminal and the vehicle, making the vehicle's opening and closing control of the charging port cover more intelligent and accurate.

In addition, when the user logs in to the charging pile on the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal may not have established a connection with the vehicle, and at this time, the usage status of the charging pile cannot be forwarded to the vehicle.

Preferably, in some embodiments, when the mobile terminal is not connected to the vehicle, a request to establish a connection with the vehicle pops up on the mobile terminal; if a user responds to the request on the mobile terminal and establishes a connection with the vehicle, the mobile terminal The terminal forwards the plugging and unplugging status of the charging pile to the vehicle. Specifically, when a request to establish a connection with the vehicle pops up on the mobile terminal, if the user agrees to establish a connection with the vehicle, the mobile terminal attempts to automatically establish a connection with the vehicle, and forwards the charging plug of the charging pile to the vehicle after the connection is successfully established. unplugged state. If the user does not agree to establish a connection with the vehicle, the method provided by the embodiments of this application will be exited.

In the above step S204, if the vehicle receives that the charging gun is in the unplugged state, the charging port cover is controlled to open automatically; if the vehicle receives that the charging gun is inserted in the gun state, the charging port cover is controlled to remain closed. In addition, after controlling the charging port cover to automatically open, you can also control the charging port cover to automatically close.

Preferably, in some embodiments, after controlling the automatic opening of the charging port cover of the vehicle, it also includes: automatically closing the charging port cover of the vehicle when the vehicle receives the plug-in and unplug state of the charging gun and the charging gun is in the plug-in state; or , obtain the payment information for using the charging pile, and when the completed payment is received and the charging gun is in the plug-in state, the charging port cover of the control vehicle is automatically closed. Specifically, in practice, the triggering condition for controlling the automatic closing of the charging port cover is not unique, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

In some embodiments, the above method further includes: when the charging gun is connected to the charging port of the vehicle and charging, obtain vehicle information and associate the vehicle information as historical charging information with the user information logged in to the server, where the vehicle information includes the vehicle model; When the mobile terminal logs into the server again for charging based on the same user information, it is detected whether the mobile terminal and the vehicle have established a connection; when the mobile terminal establishes a connection with the vehicle, the vehicle model of the vehicle currently connected to the mobile terminal is compared with the latest history Compare the vehicle models in the charging information; if they are consistent, the vehicle will be notified to automatically open the charging port cover; if they are inconsistent, a prompt will pop up on the mobile terminal whether to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover, and based on the user's request on the mobile terminal. Notify the vehicle to respond to the prompt to automatically open the charging port cover, and determine the opening and closing of the vehicle charging port cover.

Specifically, each time a charging pile is used to charge a vehicle, vehicle information is obtained and used as historical charging information. The vehicle information includes but is not limited to vehicle signals, license plate information, etc. These historical charging information can be sorted in chronological order. When the mobile terminal is connected to a vehicle, it obtains the vehicle information of the connected vehicle, and based on the historical charging information, determines whether the currently connected vehicle information is consistent with the vehicle information of the most recent charge. If they are consistent, it is determined that the connected vehicle is charged. demand, thereby notifying the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover; if not, determine whether the connected vehicle has charging requirements by popping up a prompt on the mobile terminal to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover, for example, popping up a selection prompt on the mobile terminal, Let the user determine whether to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover. If the user chooses to agree to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover, the vehicle will be notified to control the opening of the charging port cover; if the user chooses not to notify the vehicle to automatically open the charging port cover, the vehicle control will be notified. The charging port cover is closed.

Figure 3 is a flow chart of another method for automatically opening a charging port cover provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 3, the method for automatically opening a charging port cover includes:

S301, when using a mobile terminal to connect to a commercial charging pile for charging, obtain the user type logged in to the charging pile and the usage status of the charging pile.
