Die Anzeige erfolgt über ein zentrales Touch-Display.Central "Point of Interaction" (pole) for charging stations, the communication and interaction interface and their controls (processor) in charging stations for charging e-vehicles and the electronic payment process, characterized in that there is only one processor (CPU) for the Control of the displays, the loading processes, the meters that comply with calibration law and electronic payment. The information is displayed on a central touch display.

Description

Konventionelle Ladesäulen zeichnen sich durch mehrere redundante Steuerungssysteme aus. Für den Nutzer bedeutet dies, dass er zum Laden seines Fahrzeugs an verteilten Stellen an der Ladesäule Informationen erhält und zu Handlungen veranlasst wird. So sind die Zählerstände meist hinten und unten in der Säule ablesbar (Sichtfenster). Die Preisanzeige befindet sich auf einem gesonderten Display. Der Zahlvorgang für das geforderte ad-hoc Zahlen findet auf einem spezifischen Bezahlterminal - sog. PINpad (Ladesäulenverordnung; Bundesgesetzblatt 2021 Nr. 77) an noch einer anderen Stelle in der Ladesäule statt.Conventional charging stations are characterized by several redundant control systems. For the user, this means that he receives information about charging his vehicle at various points on the charging station and is prompted to take action. The meter readings can usually be read at the back and bottom of the column (viewing window). The price display is on a separate display. The payment process for the required ad-hoc payment takes place on a specific payment terminal - so-called PINpad (Charging Station Ordinance; Federal Law Gazette 2021 No. 77) at another point in the charging station.

Die Nutzung der Ladesäulen durch den Autofahrer wird damit sehr umständlich, da es keinen zentralen Interaktionspunkt gibt und der Nutzer sich bei unterschiedlichen Typen von Ladesäulen sich ständig neu orientieren muss.The use of the charging stations by the driver is therefore very cumbersome, since there is no central point of interaction and the user has to constantly reorient himself when there are different types of charging stations.

Für den Betreiber der Ladesäule - sprich den Charge-Point-Operator (CPO) ist es sehr aufwendig, die unterschiedlichen Komponenten zu integrieren und zu bewirtschaften, da jede Komponente von einem eigenen Prozessor gesteuert wird und diese mit unterschiedlichen Betriebssystemen und Schnittstellen arbeiten. Die benötigten Komponenten sind ein eichrechtskonformer Energiezähler, ein Ladecontroller für das Lastmanagement, ein hochauflösendes Display sowie ein zertifizierte Bezahlterminal nach PCI 5.x und TA 7.2; DC-POS 2.3 der Deutschen Kreditwirtschaft. Die dadurch entstehenden Einmalkosten sowie die laufenden Kosten sind unverhältnismäßig hoch.For the operator of the charging station - i.e. the charge point operator (CPO) - it is very time-consuming to integrate and manage the different components, since each component is controlled by its own processor and they work with different operating systems and interfaces. The required components are a calibration law-compliant energy meter, a charging controller for load management, a high-resolution display and a certified payment terminal according to PCI 5.x and TA 7.2; DC-POS 2.3 of the German Banking Industry. The resulting one-off costs as well as the running costs are disproportionately high.

Mit der vorliegenden Erfindung soll ein zentraler Punkt für den Nutzer bereitgestellt werden, der dem Nutzer eine einfache und schnelle Nutzung der Ladesäule ermöglicht. Voraussetzung hierfür ist eine zentrale Steuereinheit für die Ladesäule sowie ein zentrales Display (Point of Interaction) vorgesehen. Hierzu muss der Prozessor des Bezahlterminals um weitere Funktionen erweitert werden.The aim of the present invention is to provide the user with a central point that allows the user to use the charging station quickly and easily. The prerequisite for this is a central control unit for the charging station and a central display (point of interaction). To do this, the processor of the payment terminal must be expanded to include additional functions.

Gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung wird eine zentrale Steuerung der Ladesäule bereitgestellt, die folgende Komponenten beinhaltet: ein Touch-Display, ein elektronischen Bezahlterminal, ein Ladecontroller, ein zentrales Display, eichrechtskonforme Zähler.According to the present invention, a central controller for the charging station is provided, which includes the following components: a touch display, an electronic payment terminal, a charging controller, a central display, meters that comply with calibration law.

Zum Nutzer hin befindet sich ein zentrales Touch-Display. Dieses Display zeigt die aktuellen Strompreise an, sowie die eichrechtskonformen Zählerstände vor und nach der Ladung. Des Weiteren wird auch der Zahlvorgang mit Roaming-, Debit- oder Kreditkarte abgewickelt. Der Nutzer wird mittels Anweisungen durch den Zahlvorgang geführt und kann dort über eine Pin-on-Glas Lösung seinen Pin eingeben, soweit gefordert. Der Nutzer bekommt dann auch die Anweisungen zu den einzelnen Schritten. Auf dem Display kann zum Schluss der Lade- und Bezahlvorgangs ein QR-Code angezeigt werden, der die Rechnungsdaten (Quittung) enthält. Hinter dem Display befindet sich eine NFC-Antenne, so dass der Nutzer durch entsprechende Symbole auf dem Display geführt hier seine kontaktlose Bezahlkarte vorhalten kann, um den Bezahlprozess zu starten.There is a central touch display facing the user. This display shows the current electricity prices, as well as meter readings before and after charging that comply with calibration law. Furthermore, the payment process is also processed with roaming, debit or credit cards. The user is guided through the payment process by means of instructions and can enter his pin there via a pin-on-glass solution, if required. The user then also receives the instructions for the individual steps. At the end of the loading and payment process, a QR code containing the billing data (receipt) can be shown on the display. There is an NFC antenna behind the display, so that the user, guided by corresponding symbols on the display, can present their contactless payment card to start the payment process.

Um eine einfache Integration und Bewirtschaftung einer solchen zentralen Informationsschnittstelle (Pol) zu gewährleisten ist es unabdingbar nur eine Steuereinheit in der Ladesäule zu verbauen. Die zentrale CPU muss auf dem Bezahlterminal sitzen, da es die höchsten sicherheitstechnischen Anforderungen beinhaltet (PCI 5.x, EMV 3.0, DK TA7.2 - DC-POS 2.3) Die zentrale CPU wickelt die komplette Steuerung der Lade- und Bezahlvorgänge sowie die Displayanzeigen ab. Die Schützfunktion des Ladecontrollers wird über eine Zusatzplatine auf dem Motherboard des Bezahlterminals gewährleistet. Auf dieser CPU befinden sich auch die dem Eichrecht entsprechenden Messkapseln, die nicht manipuliert werden können, um die eichrechtskonformen Zählerstände auf dem Display anzeigen zu können.In order to ensure simple integration and management of such a central information interface (pole), it is essential to install only one control unit in the charging station. The central CPU must sit on the payment terminal, as it contains the highest security requirements (PCI 5.x, EMV 3.0, DK TA7.2 - DC-POS 2.3) The central CPU handles the complete control of the loading and payment processes as well as the displays away. The charging controller's protective function is ensured by an additional circuit board on the payment terminal's motherboard. This CPU also contains the measuring capsules in accordance with calibration law, which cannot be manipulated in order to be able to show the meter readings in accordance with calibration law on the display.

Vorteile für den Nutzer: Er kann sich leicht orientieren und findet alle relevanten Information zum Laden und Bezahlen an einem zentralen Ort.Advantages for the user: It is easy to orientate yourself and you will find all the relevant information about charging and paying in one central location.

Vorteile für den Betreiber (CPO): Er spart sich durch die Reduktion der erforderlichen CPUs initiale Kosten bei der Integration eines Lade- und Bezahlmanagementsystems sowie auch laufenden Kosten durch reduzierten Pflegeaufwand der unterschiedlichen Betriebssysteme und Schnittstellen.Advantages for the operator (CPO): By reducing the required CPUs, he saves initial costs when integrating a charging and payment management system as well as running costs due to reduced maintenance effort for the different operating systems and interfaces.
