JP5678258B2 - CHARGING DEVICE CONTROL METHOD, CONTROL DEVICE, AND ITS PROGRAM - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention relates to a control method, a control device, and a program for a charging device when a charging device for charging a storage battery mounted on the electric vehicle is used in a plurality of electric vehicles.

  Examples of the electric vehicle driven by the electric energy charged in the storage battery include an electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle, an electric bicycle, an electric wheelchair, and an electric farm equipment.

  These operate with the electric energy charged in the storage battery, and when the electric energy is exhausted, it is necessary to recharge the storage battery by connecting to a charging device. Therefore, it is inconvenient if there is no charging device within the range where the electric vehicle is used.

  In consideration of convenience, the charging device can often use an AC 100V or 200V outlet for general household use. For example, an electric vehicle is directly connected to a household outlet and charged, or a charging circuit and an AC-DC converter are separated from the electric vehicle (AC adapter), and this is connected to the electric vehicle and the household outlet. There is a form to insert and connect between.

  Hereinafter, an example of an electric vehicle will be described using an electric vehicle that is directly connected to a household outlet for charging. However, there are various forms as described above, and the present invention is not limited to this embodiment.

  An electric vehicle can travel several tens to hundreds of kilometers with a single full charge (the distance that can be traveled varies depending on the battery capacity of the storage battery). When traveling, it is necessary to find a charging device on the way and charge it.

  As a conventional invention, Patent Document 1 describes a service system capable of searching for a place where a charging device is installed (position where power is sold) via a mobile phone. This is shown in FIG. 12 (FIG. 1 of Patent Document 1).

  Information on the sales position of electric power (table lamp in FIG. 12) is registered in the server by the power seller. The user of the electric vehicle accesses the server from the mobile phone and searches the sales position information of the registered power. Since the search result is displayed on the browser of the mobile phone, the user of the electric vehicle can go to the power sales position and charge.

  Here, as a person who sells electric power, it is described that the electric power generated excessively in homes, stores, and companies that perform in-house power generation using sunlight or wind power is effectively used (Patent Document 1). Paragraphs 0004 and 0006).

  Patent Document 2 describes a charging stand that replaces a storage battery (secondary battery) instead of a charging device for an electric vehicle, but includes detailed desired conditions for the charging stand such as the number and price of storage batteries required for replacement. A search system using an in-vehicle information providing device (navigation device or the like) capable of searching is described. This is shown in FIG. 13 (FIG. 10 of Patent Document 2).

  As one of the purposes, it is described that charging facility information is provided to the user of the electric vehicle reflecting the convenience and request on the side of the charging device, and the satisfaction of the user is improved (Patent Document 2). (See paragraph 0006).

  The conventional invention makes it possible to search for the location of the charging station, business information, etc. using a mobile phone or a navigation device, thereby improving convenience when charging on the go and enabling the electric vehicle to move over a long distance. .

  By the way, as one of the popularization issues of electric vehicles, there is anxiety that if the charging stations are not increased to cover all over Japan, charging will not be possible when the electric vehicles run out of battery on the go. On the other hand, there is a dilemma that if the number of electric vehicles does not increase, the number of users of the charging station will not increase, so the management of the charging station will not be established, and the number of charging stations will not increase.

  The present invention contemplates using one charging device in a plurality of electric vehicles. For example, the charging device installed at home is allowed to be used by another person and the charging device of the other person can be used to use each other. Alternatively, a commercial facility charging device for charging an electric vehicle owned by the commercial facility can be used by a customer when the commercial facility does not use the charging device.

  This solves the dilemma of whether the prevalence of electric vehicles is the first or increasing the number of charging facilities, and if electric vehicles are prevalent, the number of places where charging is possible increases. Anxiety about electric vehicles will decrease if there are more places to charge. That spreads electric vehicles, and the more electric vehicles, the more places you can charge.

  By the way, since it takes a long time to charge an electric vehicle, it is necessary to reserve a charging device. At a conventional gas station, supplying gasoline to an automobile takes only a few minutes, so it is possible to wait even if the preceding vehicle is injecting gasoline when going to the gas station. Compared with this, the charging time of the electric vehicle varies depending on the charging amount and the charging method, but in the case of a quick charger, the charging amount ends from about zero to 80% charging in about 30 minutes. In addition, it takes several hours to several tens of hours for ordinary charging in which charging is performed from a household AC 200V or 100V outlet.

  Therefore, in order to use the charging device with a plurality of electric vehicles, it is inevitable that the charging device is used efficiently by performing schedule management.

  In addition, as described above, it is important to be able to utilize ordinary charging at home in order to increase the number of charging facilities and promote the spread of electric vehicles. For example, when another person uses a charging device installed in a private house, consideration must be given to giving priority to the charging of the electric vehicle of the owner of the charging device. Similarly, when a customer uses a charging device owned by a commercial facility, charging of an electric vehicle (delivery vehicle) owned by the commercial facility may be given priority over the customer depending on the situation.

  Thus, an object of the present invention is to control the charging device by performing efficient scheduling when the charging device is used in a plurality of electric vehicles.

In order to solve the above-described conventional problems, a control method for a charging device according to the present invention is a control method for a charging device for charging a storage battery mounted on an electric vehicle, and the position of the first electric vehicle among the electric vehicles. A step of receiving information about the step, a step of calculating a moving time from the received position to the installation location of the charging device, and a charging device permitting charging of another electric vehicle during the moving time from the time when the position is measured And a method for controlling the charging device.

  Then, using the time required for the first electric vehicle to move from the current position to the installation location of the charging device, the charging device permits charging of another electric vehicle.

  The present invention, when using a charging device in an electric vehicle, receives information related to the position of the first electric vehicle among the electric vehicles and calculates a travel time from the received position to the installation location of the charging device. The charging device can charge another electric vehicle by using the time required for the first electric vehicle to move from the current position to the installation location of the charging device.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.

(Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a communication system including an electric vehicle equipped with a storage battery, a charging device, and a control device for the charging device in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. While permitting the charging device to be used by another person and searching for and using the charging device owned by the other person, the mutual charging device is used between the owners.

  In the embodiment of the present invention, a description will be given of a mode in which a person who permits the use of his / her own charging device by another person rents and borrows the charging device mutually as a person who searches for and uses the charging device of the other person. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a form in which a person who permits use of his or her own charging device by another person and a person who searches for and uses the charging device of another person may be separated.

  For example, if a commercial facility is equipped with a charging device, the use of the charging device gives priority to charging the delivery vehicle (electric vehicle) owned by the commercial facility, but the commercial vehicle is not used when the delivery vehicle is not using the charging device. The charging device is opened to charge the customer's electric vehicle.

  An electric vehicle will be described as an example of an electric vehicle. However, a hybrid vehicle, an electric bicycle, an electric wheelchair, an electric agricultural machine, or the like may be used as long as the vehicle is equipped with a battery and moves by electricity.

  In FIG. 1, the charging device 1 charges the storage battery 3 of the electric vehicle 2, and the owner A of the electric vehicle 2 owns the charging device 1. For example, the charging device 1 is provided in a parking lot at the home of the owner A, and charging is performed when the electric vehicle 2 is parked at home.

  The charging device 1 and the electric vehicle 2 can be charged by connecting with a power cord or in a non-contact manner using electromagnetic induction.

  The installation location of the charging device is not limited to home, but may be any location where an electric vehicle can be stopped, such as a parking lot in a store or commercial facility, an office, or a factory.

  In addition, a communication terminal 4 is connected (or mounted) to the electric vehicle 2, and transmission / reception is performed between the communication terminal 4 and the control device 5.

  The communication terminal 4 is the property of the owner A or the equipment of the electric vehicle 2, and communicates with the control device 5 through a mobile communication network or a data communication network in the form of a navigation device, a mobile phone, a data communication card, or the like. . Further, the communication terminal 4 may take the form of an ETC in-vehicle device and communicate via a communication network (for example, an ETC communication network) installed on the road side.

  Another electric vehicle 6 is an electric vehicle owned by another person B different from the owner A. Just as the electric vehicle 2 is connected (or mounted) to the communication terminal 4, the communication terminal 7 is connected (or mounted) to the electric vehicle 6. This is the property of the other person B or the equipment of the electric vehicle 6.

  Here, the owner A and the other person B share the charging device 1 at home of the owner A, and the owner B charges the electric vehicle 6 with the charging device 1 while the owner A is out of the electric vehicle 2. The control device 5 and the communication system for controlling the control will be described below.

  1 includes a communication unit 8 that communicates with the communication terminal 4 of the owner A and the communication terminal 7 of the other party B, and a calculation unit 9 that calculates information received by the communication unit 8 and outputs the information to the permission unit. Storing and managing the information calculated by the calculation means 9 and setting permission / non-permission, the permission / non-permission setting result of the permission means 10 via the communication means 8, the communication terminal 4, Answering means 11 for answering 7.

  The charging device 1 includes a communication device 12 and communicates information related to the charging device 1 with the control device 5. Since the charging device 1 is fixedly installed, the communication device 12 of the charging device may communicate with the control device 5 through a high-speed communication network such as an optical fiber line.

  In addition, when charging is performed by connecting the charging device 1 and the electric vehicle 2, wired communication is possible between the communication device 12 and the communication terminal 4 via the power supply line for charging. The communication device 12 of the charging device 1 can communicate with the control device 5 via the communication terminal 4, and the communication terminal 4 can communicate with the control device 5 via the communication device 12 of the charging device.

  Although detailed explanation and illustration are omitted, the other person B also has a charging device at B's home, and the charging device is shared by the control device 5 of the charging device and the communication system, and B is used for charging the electric vehicle. It is possible to use the B charging device to charge the A electric vehicle when there is not.

  In addition, for simplicity of explanation, FIG. 1 will be described by only two persons, owner A and other person B, but another person C is added and three people A, B, and C add each other three charging devices. Can be used together. Thus, as the number of users increases, the number of charging devices that can be used with each other increases.

Next, FIG. 2 illustrates a sequence diagram of the communication system of FIG. In the four parties of the electric vehicle 2, the communication terminals 4 and 7, the communication device 12 of the charging device 1, and the control device 5, the use permission condition for the charging device 1 is transmitted from the communication terminal 4 of the user A, and others The charging device use request is transmitted from the communication terminal 7 of B, and the matching search is performed by the control device 5 using the use permission condition and the use request. As a result, the other person B reserves the charging device 1 and performs charging. .

  First, in the communication terminal 4 of the owner A of the charging device 1, the owner A thinks that the charging device 1 may be permitted to be used by another person (a) The permission conditions are input / set and transmitted (FIG. 2). S1, S2). This may be set by the charging device 1 and transmitted from the communication device 12.

  Here, S1 and S2 are written as one time, but (a) the permission condition may be updated by transmitting from the communication terminal 4 of the owner A at a predetermined interval. A method for setting and transmitting (a) permission conditions according to the situation of the electric vehicle 2 of the owner A will be described in the second embodiment.

  Here, (a) the format of the permission condition includes the following information of the charging device 1 as shown in FIG.

  (A) It is identification information of the charging device 1. This is ID information for identifying charging devices scattered all over Japan, and is set and stored in the charging device 1 in advance. As will be described later, this identification information is related to the information of the owner of the charging device, and the installation location, form, and attribute (whether it is a house, a store, an office, a factory) of the charging device 1 or a contact information (phone number or email) Information such as address and owner's name).

  (I) Information on the location and attributes of the charging device 1. The installation location (longitude / latitude and address) of the charging device 1 and the type of the charging device (rapid charging, normal charging) and the like are shown as attributes of the charging device. Although not shown, information to be considered when using the charging device such as the type, size, and weight of a vehicle that can be parked and charged is included in (i).

  (U) Information regarding the power source of the charging device 1. Electricity charges vary depending on the time zone such as voltage (for example, AC 100V), maximum current or maximum power (for example, 40A, 4kW) contracted at the location where the charging apparatus is installed, night power contract, etc. If it is, the type of electricity and the amount of power generation are included if there is an electricity bill, distributed generators such as solar power generation and fuel cells, and natural energy.

  Even if the chargeable power supply is 40A, adjust the power to be used so that the total current exceeds 40A and the breaker does not shut off when a lot of power is used in other electrical devices of the charging device. There is a need. When priority is given to the use of other electrical equipment, charging is performed while adjusting the power used by the charging device so that the breaker does not shut off. As a result, the charging time becomes longer.

  Further, if there is a distributed power generation device such as a solar power generation device, when surplus power is generated, the surplus power can be used in the charging device. That is, it can be used exceeding 40A.

  That is, (u) the power that can be used by the charging device can be obtained by including information on the power that can be supplied from the power source or the surplus power.

  (E) It is information on the usage permission time (time for charging) of the charging device 1. Although details will be described later, a time zone in which the other person can use the charging device 1 and a time zone in which the charging device 1 cannot be used are shown. When the owner A reserves the use of the charging device 1, the other person is not allowed to use the time zone. Moreover, when the other person B reserves use of the charging device 1, use other than the other person B (including the owner A) is not permitted for the time period.

  (O) Charging information of the charging device 1. The user A sets the electric charge for charging when the other person uses the charging device 1 and the parking charge for the time when the vehicle is parked for charging.

  (Or) This is a request for the attribute of another person who permits use of the charging apparatus 1 by the user A. The utilization system proposed by the embodiment of the present application can respect the intention of the user A who is the owner of the charging device.

  Since you are going to use the charger in the parking lot at home, you may be wondering who the person is. For example, this system uses only the charging device of the other person without permitting the use of the own charging device because of the philosophy that the charging device of the other person is used instead of permitting the use of the charging device to the other person. Suppose that there is an owner who does not want to allow his or her charging device to be used.

  Therefore, it is possible to select a partner that user A may use by including the degree of contribution (or) to the system in the allowable condition of FIG. For example, based on the results of the past year, the results such as the number and time of permission to use the charging device for others and the amount of electric power provided by charging are ranked as contributions. Such records are stored and ranked by the permission means 10 of the control device 5. Here, A, B, and C ranks are assigned from the higher contribution level based on the number of times the charging device is provided to others.

  Of course, in a commercial facility or the like, when the use is permitted to anyone, the contribution included in the permission condition may be set as C rank or higher.

  As will be described later, the permission means 10 of the control device 5 searches for usable charging devices including the degree of contribution, so in order to increase the number of other charging devices that can be used by the user, the use of the own charging device is used. It is necessary to increase the degree of contribution by increasing the number of permits. That is, it is an incentive to permit use of the own charging device.

  Since the information about these (a) to (ka) sets use permission conditions for each charging device, if the owner A possesses a plurality of charging devices, FIG. 3 shows a plurality of charging devices. The permission conditions will be shown.

  The (a) permission condition of the charging device 1 as described above is transmitted from the communication terminal 4 of the owner to the control device 5 (S2 in FIG. 2).

  The control device 5 receives the permission condition by the communication means 8, calculates the usable charging device and its permission condition by the calculation means 9, stores them in the permission means 10 and manages them (S3).

  The permission means 10 centrally manages permission conditions for a plurality of charging devices transmitted from a plurality of communication terminals as in S1 and S2, as shown in FIG.

  Further, the contribution degree information of the owner is stored and managed for each owner as shown in FIG. Includes the following information:

  (Sa) Owner identification information. Although the identification information of a communication terminal or an electric vehicle may be sufficient, in that case, when there are a plurality of communication terminals or electric vehicles, one identification code among them is used as a representative.

(Sh) This is the level of the owner's contribution. The permission means 10 scores and ranks the information of (su) to (ta) described below. Ranking is performed regularly on the last day of every month, for example.

  (Iii) The identification code of the charging device owned by the owner. This is the permission condition of the charging device, which matches the identification code of the charging device in FIG. When the owner owns a plurality of charging devices, their identification codes are described.

  (Se) The total number of times the owner has allowed another person to use his or her own charging device in the past year. The average time per month may be used. When the owner owns a plurality of charging devices, the total time is taken or the average time per vehicle is taken. The time actually used by others is included in the following (so).

  This is the result of the owner allowing the other person to use his or her own charging device and actually charging it. For example, it is the time when the other person actually charged or the average time of one month of the charged electric energy. When a plurality of charging devices are owned, the total time is taken or the average time per vehicle is taken.

  (T) Evaluation of the installation location of the charging device that the owner has authorized to use. For example, considering the number (density) of charging devices that are permitted to be used within 5 km, the value of the charging device that is permitted to be used in a place where there are few permitted charging devices is high, so the degree of contribution is high. It is something to evaluate. In addition, since there are high demands in places and times when others often use the charging device, the value of the charging device that is permitted to be used in places such as sightseeing spots or near stations is high. Further, evaluation may be performed by adding a time zone during which use is permitted. When a plurality of charging devices are owned, the average value or the maximum value is used.

  (C) The monthly average value of the amount of electricity used by the owner and the amount of electricity charged by using the other person's charging device. As described above, a person who has a high ratio of using (i.e., using) the other person's charging device with respect to his / her permission to use the charging device and his / her performance (i) has a lower evaluation of the degree of contribution.

  Although not shown in the figure, evaluation information when borrowing the charging device (use of the charging device was good or allowed to use the charging device) may be added to the degree of contribution.

  As described above, the calculation of the control device 5 is performed from the permission conditions received from the communication terminal 4 and the request information and reservation information transmitted from the communication terminal 7, as will be described later. The means 9 extracts / calculates it and stores it in the permission means 10 for each owner. And the permission means 10 calculates | requires the owner's contribution degree (shi) by scoring the information of (se) to (chi).

  Next, when another person B needs to be charged while going out of the electric vehicle 6 and wants to use the charging device 1 of another person, the request information is input and set in the communication terminal 7 (S4 in FIG. 2). ). (B) Request information is transmitted from the communication terminal 7 to the control device 5 (S5).

  An example of the format of (b) request information is shown in FIG.

  (N) The usage request time is a request for the time that the other person B wants to use the charging device. If it is desired to use the charging device immediately, the use request time is the current time. Strictly speaking, the time required to move from the current position of the electric vehicle 6 of the other person B to the installation location of the charging device 1 is considered. Details will be described later.

  (Ii) the current position of the electric vehicle of the other person B and the place (use request place) to be charged. The place may include an address in addition to the latitude and longitude. If it is desired to use the charging device immediately, the charging request location is near the current location. That is, there is a correlation between the use request time and the use request location.

  The current time and current position are obtained from the navigation device provided in the electric vehicle 6 of the other person B, and it is necessary to charge from the current charge amount of the storage battery by calculating what time and where the vehicle is traveling. May be obtained in advance and included in the request information.

  (Nu) This is the amount of electric power (necessary charge amount) required for charging to a predetermined value (for example, 80% charge). The current charge amount is obtained by a charging dynamometer provided in the electric vehicle 6, and the required charge amount is obtained by subtracting the current charge amount from the 80% charge amount. Of course, other methods may be used.

  For example, the charging may be performed by calculating the distance from the charging device of the other person to the charging device (home) of the owner, and the electric vehicle traveling the travel distance. For example, if the current state of charge of an electric vehicle is 10% and arrives at the charging device of the other person, it is predicted that it will decrease to 7%. If the power required for traveling from there to 15% is 15%, The device may be charged for 8%.

  (Ne) It is identification information of a use requester (that is, other person B) who requests the use of the charging device of another person. The identification information is set and stored when the communication terminal 7 is given to the owner B.

  This is linked to the identification information of the owner of the contribution degree information in FIG. 4 (2), and the control device 5 (do) based on the identification information of the use requester (ne) included in the request information. The contribution degree can be retrieved and read by the permission means 10.

  The information on the attribute of the electric vehicle of the use requester is information that should be considered when using the charging device, such as the type, size, and weight of the vehicle. For example, if the vehicle to be charged is a large vehicle, a parking place corresponding to the large vehicle is necessary, so the attribute information (Yes) of the charging device under the permission condition is checked.

  The control device 5 receives the above request information (b) by the communication means 8, calculates the requester requesting use and the request information by the calculation means 9, and stores them in the permission means 10 for management (see FIG. 2). S6). The details of the calculation will be described later.

  Then, the permission unit 10 of the control device 5 performs a matching search between the stored permission condition and the required condition, and obtains a charging apparatus that satisfies the required condition among the use-permitted charging devices (S7). The reply means 11 creates reply information from the search result and sends it back as reply information (c) to the communication terminal 7 that sent the use request (S8). The communication terminal 7 receives this and notifies others B. For example, it is displayed on the navigation device together with the location of the charging device to notify the other person B.

  An example of the format of the response information (c) is shown in FIG.

  This is a list of charging devices that satisfy the request information of FIG. It is generated from the list of permission conditions (FIG. 4 (1)) regarding the charging device that can be used.

  The (ha) charging device identification information to (ho) charging device attributes are the same items, although the order is different from the charging device permission condition information (a) to (o) in FIG. Specifically, the charging device that satisfies the request information is extracted from the information on the charging device that can be used in FIG. In addition to the information included in the permission condition, information that is stored and managed in the permission unit 10 and is useful for using the charging device may be included in the answer information.

In FIG. 5 (2), two charging devices are illustrated, but in some cases, there is no charging device that satisfies the requirements. Further, when there are many usable charging devices, the charging devices may be rearranged in the order of closest charging places or in the order of cheaper charging information. You may rearrange in order with a high contribution degree, attaching importance to the contribution degree of the owner of a charging device. In addition, the connection of people who have been allowed to use a charging device that they own in the past, or the owner of a charging device that has been allowed to use in the past. The history may be prioritized with priority.

  (C) In the communication terminal 7 that has received the answer information, the other person B selects the charging device to be used from the answer information. Then, in order to reserve the selected charging device, (d) reservation information is transmitted to the control device 5 (S9 in FIG. 2).

  Although details of the reservation information are not shown, an identification code of a charging device to be used, a time zone to be used, a necessary charge amount, and the like are transmitted. (D) The details of the reservation content may be included in the reservation information and transmitted from the communication terminal 7 to the control device 5.

  (D) The control device that has received the reservation information refers to (a) permission conditions, (b) request information, (d) reservation information, etc. received so far and confirms the reservation contents. Then, the reservation contents are stored in the permitting means 10 (reserving the charging device), and (e) the communication notification 4 of the owner A who is the owner of the charging device 1 and the communication device 12 of the charging device 1 are used for the reservation notification information. To notify that a reservation has been made. In addition, (e) reservation notification information is also transmitted to the communication terminal of the other person B who uses the charging device 1 to confirm the reservation (S10 in FIG. 2).

  An example of the format of this (e) reservation notification information is shown in FIG.

  This includes the identification information of the (ma) charging device that has been reserved for use and the identification information of the (y) charging device user, ((mi) the reserved time of use, (m) the charging location, (m) the required charging amount, ( In addition to the charging information, the owner A and the other person B, and then the communication device 12 of the charging device are notified.

  At this time, the control device 5 may increase the accuracy by performing the following two detailed calculations for the use reservation time of the charging device, and may include this in the summary notification information (see) and transmit the reservation notification information.

  Detailed calculation (1): The calculation means 9 of the control device 5 acquires the current position of the electric vehicle 6 of the other person B who requests charging and moves from the current position to the reserved charging device installation location. The travel time required for this is calculated, and the time obtained by adding the calculated travel time to the time when the current position is measured is used as the start time of the use reservation.

  That is, the reservation time can be made closer to the actual time by considering the travel time. In particular, when the travel time to the installation location of the charging device is large, the start time of the use reservation can be delayed compared with the case where the travel time is not taken into account, and during that time, the charging device is further connected to another electric vehicle. It can be used with permission.

  Detailed calculation (2): The calculation means 9 of the control device 5 obtains the required charge amount ((N) in FIG. 5 (1)) of the electric vehicle 6 of the other person B who requests charging, and the reserved charging device The time required for charging (required charging time) is calculated from the charging speed. And the time which added the start time which added the movement time to a charging device to the present position which is a result of detailed calculation (1) to this required charging time becomes charging end time. Thus, the use reservation time can be made closer to the actual time by calculating the required charge time in consideration of the charge speed.

  In this way, by receiving the information related to the position of the electric vehicle of the other person B, the control device calculates the arrival time by moving from the current position to the installation location of the charging device, and the charging time of the charging device is calculated by that time. Charging of the electric vehicle of the other person B can be permitted when it is included in the permitted time.

In addition, by receiving information on the position of the electric vehicle of the other person B and the required charge amount (required charge amount), the control device moves from the current position to the installation location of the charging device and arrives and the time required for charging. And the charging of the electric vehicle of the other person B can be permitted when the time is included in the time for charging the charging device.

  The position information of the electric vehicle of the other person B and the information of the time when the position information is measured are measured by a navigation device or a GPS signal receiver provided in the electric vehicle 6 of the other person B, and are controlled from the communication terminal 7. Sent to. These pieces of information are transmitted by being included in (b) request information.

  In calculating the above detailed calculations (1) and (2), the control device 5 acquires the latest information on the current position and the required charge amount of the electric vehicle 6 of the other person B from the communication terminal 7 of the other person B. If it calculates, accuracy will increase. The usage request time and the usage reservation time are updated, and when the usage permission time of the charging device being reserved does not match, the flow returns to S7 to search for the charging device again.

  In FIG. 2, (b) request information of communication terminal B is written only in S5, but thereafter (b) request information is periodically transmitted from the communication terminal B to the control device, and (b) the request information is updated. Then, the above-mentioned detailed calculations (1) and (2) are performed to update the use request time and use reservation time. Further, when the parking of a predetermined time or longer is detected by turning on / off the power of the electric vehicle 6 or starting / stopping the engine, it is transmitted to the control device 5 to update the current position, the destination, and the state of charge. be able to.

  The travel time is calculated by calculating the distance required for travel from the current position information received from the communication terminal and the information on the reserved installation location of the charging device. The distance may be a straight distance, but in actuality, since it moves along the road, a road route from the current position to the destination is obtained, and the distance of the road route is calculated. If the distance is divided by the average traveling speed of the electric vehicle or a predetermined speed, the time required for movement can be calculated.

  Further, the calculation of the required charging time is obtained by referring to (ii) the attribute of the charging device and (iii) the power supply capability or surplus power of FIG. The calculation means 9 includes a list of charging speeds according to the form of the charging device and the power supply capability. For example, the charging speed is obtained by referring to a table in which the charging device is normally charged and the power supply capability is 100 V and 40 A.

  Although not shown in the figure, the control device 5 includes (e) an authentication code that only the owner A and the other person B know in the reservation notification information, and seeks to match the authentication code when using the following charging device or during billing processing. May be.

  As described above, the search and the reservation of the charging device permitted to be used are performed. Next, a description will be given of a case where the user B goes to the installation location of the charging apparatus permitted to be used (for example, the home of the owner A) and the other person B charges.

  2, (f) identification information is transmitted from the communication terminal 7 of the other person B to the communication device 12 of the charging device 1. The communication device 12 receives it and confirms that it is the other party that has reserved. For authentication, (e) (a) charging device identification information and (or) user identification information in the reservation notification information are used. Further, as described above, (e) an authentication code known only to the owner A and the other person B included in the reservation notification information is used.

  If the authentication result is correct, the charging device 1 starts supplying power to the electric vehicle (S12). At this time, the electric vehicle and the charging device are connected by a power supply line, or the electric vehicle is parked at a position where non-contact charging is performed so that the electric vehicle can be charged.

If the authentication of S11 is not obtained, there is a possibility of an illegal intruder different from the reservation person, so the communication device 12 of the charging device 1 notifies the communication terminal A of the authorized user or the security company.

  After charging is completed or while charging, the communication device 12 of the charging device 1 is charging (g) charging information with the control device 5, the communication terminal 4 of the owner A who is permitted to use the charging device 1, and the like. To the communication terminal 7 of the person B (S13). Assuming that the other person B is away from the electric vehicle 6 during charging, it may be transferred to a communication means such as a mobile phone of the other person B.

  An example of the format of this (g) billing information is shown in FIG.

  (R) The charging device identification information and (RO) user identification information are the same as (a) and (ya) in FIG. 5 (3) reservation notification information. (Ri) Usage time and (Ru) charge amount are not the values at the time of reservation but the actual used values. The result is reflected in the billing charge (charged electricity charge and parking charge between them).

  The control device 5 receives this (g) billing information and stores it in the permission means 10. The communication terminals 4 and 7 store it as a history (S14 in FIG. 2). The communication device 12 of the charging device 1 stores it as a history.

  The payment and collection of the billing fee is settled by using a credit card, electronic money or account deduction along with the usage fee (or brokerage fee) of the control device 5. Alternatively, it is settled by credit card, electronic money or account debit along with the communication fee of the communication terminal. In addition, it is possible to use the points operated by the members of the communication system instead of the charging fee.

  And a control apparatus 5 updates the contribution degree information of the permission means 10 about the owner A who permitted use of the charging device 1, and the other person B who used it. That is, for the owner A, (s) the number of permitted use in FIG. 4 (2), (se) the record of the permitted use is additionally recorded, and the other person B is additionally recorded about the usage of the charging device of the other person. To do.

  In addition, although not shown in the figure, the other person B evaluates the owner A with respect to the maintenance status of the charging device 1 and the impression used, etc., and inputs this to the communication terminal 7 and transmits it to the control device 5 to contribute to the owner A. You may make it include in the parameter | index of a degree. Conversely, the owner A evaluates the other person B with respect to the usage status of the charging device 1 and the presence or absence of an overdue time, etc., and inputs this to the communication terminal 4 and transmits it to the control device 5 to contribute to the owner B. You may make it consider to the parameter | index of a degree.

  When the owner A of the charging device 1 charges using his / her own charging device 1, the time zone may be set to non-permitted. Alternatively, the request information may be transmitted and reserved by permitting use of the time period. In that case, the request information by the owner of the charging device has priority over the request information by others. As for the charging information for charging in S11 to S14 in FIG. 2, the charging when the owner of the charging device 1 charges by the reception / authentication of the identification information in S11 may be different from the charging when the other person charges. Good (S13).

  As described above, according to the first embodiment, by allowing the use of each other's own charging device with another person, the number of places where the electric vehicle can be charged increases. At that time, by comparing the request condition with the permission condition, it is possible to respect the intention of each owner who provides his / her own charging device to the other person in the permission condition.

The control device 5 is a server device connected to the communication system. The calculating means 9, the permitting means 10, and the answering means 11 can be realized in various forms such as being distributed to a plurality of server devices, or a part of the means being distributed to a communication terminal, a charging device, or the communication device.

(Embodiment 2)
In realizing the first embodiment, the use permission time shown in FIG.

  The other person B sends a request condition when he / she wants to search for a charging device (S4 and S5 in FIG. 2), whereas the owner A who permits the use of his own charging device changes the usage permission condition. The use permission condition is input / set to the message and transmitted (S1, S2).

  For example, when the owner A's electric vehicle 2 goes out, the charging device in the parking lot can be used by others, so the use permission is set. The use permission time is until the time when the electric vehicle is scheduled to return home.

  However, it is troublesome for the owner A to set the use permission time each time he goes out, but the other person cannot use the charging device of the owner A unless the use permission time is set accurately. For example, when the time of returning home is earlier than the scheduled time (usage permission time), it may happen that the other person's electric vehicle is being charged and there is no space for parking. This is inconvenient.

  Therefore, in the second embodiment, the position, destination, and arrival time of the owner's electric vehicle are linked with the navigation device and the ETC in-vehicle device mounted on the electric vehicle, and the use permission time of the charging device is set in the following three situations. Set and update.

  Use permission condition (1): The control device obtains the current position of the owner's electric vehicle and calculates the travel time required to move from the current position to the installation location of the charging device that is permitted to use (for example, home). Allow use.

  Thereby, assuming that the current position of the electric vehicle of the owner of the charging device is returned to the home, the charging device can be permitted to be used by another person using the travel time. If the owner's electric vehicle returns to the home from the current position, the time to return to the home will be longer, so the time to allow the charging device to be used by another person may be lengthened. it can.

  For this purpose, the current position of the owner's electric vehicle is periodically acquired to calculate and update the travel time.

  Usage permission condition (2): The control device obtains the destination of the owner's electric vehicle and calculates the time required to move the distance from the destination to the installation location of the charging device that is permitted to use (for example, home) And use it.

  As a result, it is possible to permit the use of the charging device to others using the travel time as it returns to the home via the destination from the time when the owner of the electric vehicle of the charging device is acquired. it can. If the owner's electric vehicle takes a long time to go to the destination, or if you stop by another place on the way from the destination to the home, the time to return to the home will be longer, so the charging device will be The time allowed for use can be lengthened.

  For this purpose, the destination of the owner's electric vehicle is periodically acquired, and the travel time is calculated and updated.

  Use permission condition (3): The control device acquires the current position and the destination of the owner's electric vehicle, and moves from the current position to the installation location (eg home) of the charging device that is permitted to use via the destination. The travel time required to do this is calculated and used.

  This allows the owner of the charging device to return to his / her home via the destination from the time when the current position or destination of the electric vehicle was acquired, and permits the use of the charging device to others using the travel time can do. If the owner's electric vehicle is on the way to the destination or on the way from the destination to the home, it may take a long time to return to the home, so the charging device can be used by others. The time can be lengthened.

  For this purpose, the current position and destination of the owner's electric vehicle are periodically acquired, and the travel time is calculated and updated.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the owner's electric vehicle reserves the charging device of the other person on the go, the location and time can be grasped by the control device. At the time of setting the use permission time of the owner's charging device. Of course, you may combine the said use permission conditions (1)-(3) with this in cooperation with a navigation apparatus or an ETC vehicle equipment.

  Use permission condition (4): When the owner's electric vehicle charges on the go using the charging device of the other person, the control device acquires the installation location of the charging device of the other person and moves the distance to the home It is possible to calculate the time required for the charging, and to allow the other person to use the charging device by using the time until the user returns to the home from the charging device of the other person.

  Use permission condition (5): When the owner's electric vehicle is charged on the go using the charging device of the other person, the control device acquires the installation location and the charging time of the other person's charging device, Calculate the travel time from the charging device to the home and the charging time at the charging device, and use the time between charging with the charging device of the other person and returning to the home to use the charging device. Can be used for permission.

  Note that in (4) and (5) above, the current position of the electric vehicle of the owner of the charging device may be acquired, and the travel time from the current position to the charging device of the other person may be added.

  The configuration of the communication terminal and the control device that realize the use permission conditions (1) to (5) will be described with reference to FIG.

  The communication terminal 4 and the control device 5 of the owner A in FIG. 1 of the first embodiment will be described by replacing the communication terminal 41 and the control device 51 in FIG. Other communication terminals 7, the charging device 1, and the communication device 12 of the other person B are the same as those in the first embodiment, and thus the description thereof is omitted.

  In order to facilitate understanding, the owner A will be described as having one electric vehicle, one parking place, and one charging device. Even in the case of having a plurality of electric vehicles and charging devices in the kitchen, and in the case of having a plurality of charging devices in a plurality of places, the following may be performed for each charging device.

  First, the communication terminal 41 that communicates with the control device 51 will be described.

  Communication terminal 41 is communication means 25, permission condition transmission means 26, current position measurement means 27, destination setting means 28 in communication terminal 4 of owner A of charging device 1 in Embodiment 1 (FIG. 1), A charging state detection unit 29 and a reservation information transmission unit 30 are provided.

Although the operation of each means will be described later, the communication terminal 41 searches for permission condition transmitting means 26 for transmitting permission to use the charging device owned by itself (S2 in FIG. 2), and charging device owned by another person. A reservation information transmitting unit 30 for transmitting a reservation (S5 and S9 in FIG. 2) is provided.

  Next, the control device 51 will be described.

  The control device 51 includes, in the control device 5 in the first embodiment (FIG. 1), in addition to the communication unit 8, the calculation unit 9, the permission unit 10, and the answer unit 11, the travel time / movement distance calculation unit 21, Time / arrival time calculation means 22, arrival charge state calculation means / charge time calculation means 23, and permission condition setting means 24 are provided.

  FIG. 7 shows an operation flow for realizing the use permission conditions (1) to (6). Here, S1 to S3 in FIG. 2 will be described in detail by adding the following steps. Since S4 and subsequent steps are the same as those shown in FIG.

  After inputting permission conditions in S1 of the communication terminal 41, the present situation of the electric vehicle in the next S21 to S23 is measured.

  In S21, the current position of the electric vehicle 2 and its measurement time (current time) are measured by the current position measuring means 27.

  The current position measuring means 27 acquires the current position of the electric vehicle. For example, the current position measuring means 27 may be a GPS signal receiving device, or may acquire the current position and the current time in cooperation with the navigation device.

  Alternatively, for example, information on the location and time of traveling on an interchange on an expressway may be input to the control device 5 via the ETC communication network together with information for identifying a traveling vehicle by an ETC in-vehicle device. It may be position information of a place where a specific ETC signal is received (for example, a place when paying by ETC in an interchange on a toll road or a parking lot of a commercial facility).

  In addition, a method of acquiring the current position by communicating with a base station by radio waves, such as a mobile phone or a mobile communication device, can be used because the mobile phone or mobile communication device exists within the communication area of the base station. .

  In S22, the destination of the electric vehicle 2 is set by the destination setting means 28. Measure the time when the destination was set.

  For example, the destination setting means 28 may be a point set by the driver of the electric vehicle in cooperation with the navigation device, or may set the installation location when the charging device is reserved by communicating with the control device 51. May be. If the destination is not set by the destination setting means, the destination is unknown.

  In S 23, the current state of charge of the storage battery 1 of the electric vehicle 2 is detected by the state of charge detection means 29. Measure the time when the state of charge is detected.

  The charge state detection means 29 detects the charge state of the storage battery of the current electric vehicle. For example, the charging state is acquired in cooperation with a charging force meter provided in the electric vehicle. Alternatively, the state of charge is calculated from the output voltage / current of the storage battery.

In S <b> 2, the current status acquired in S <b> 21 to S <b> 23 is transmitted from the communication terminal 41 to the control device 51.

  In addition, since the current statuses S21 to S23 change with time, in addition to being included in the transmission of the permission condition of S2, if the current location, destination, and charging state are updated by periodically transmitting to the control device 51, Even if the scheduled time changes due to traffic jams etc., it can respond.

  Further, when the destination is changed by the destination setting means 28 in the communication terminal 41, it is transmitted to the control device 51, or parking for a predetermined time or more is detected by turning on / off the electric vehicle or starting / stopping the engine. If it is transmitted to the control device 51 and the current position, destination, and state of charge are updated, the accuracy can be improved.

  The time interval for updating may be shortened as the distance between the current position or destination and the charging device (for example, home) becomes smaller.

  The control device 51 receives this, calculates the distance between the own charging device (for example, home) and the electric vehicle and the time required for movement, and permits others to use the charging device at home.

  In S24, from the current position obtained in S21, the destination obtained in S22, and the time when it was measured, the travel distance and travel time from the current position to the destination, and the travel distance and travel time from the destination to the home. And If the current position cannot be obtained, the travel distance and travel time from the destination to the home are calculated. If the destination cannot be acquired, the destination is assumed to be home, and the travel distance and travel time from the current position to the home are calculated.

  The movement time / movement distance calculation means 21 calculates the distance and time required for movement from the current position information and destination information received from the communication terminal 41. The distance may be a straight distance, but in actuality, since it moves along the road, a road route from the current position to the destination is obtained, and the distance of the road route is calculated. If the distance is divided by the average traveling speed of the electric vehicle (obtained from the time displacement of the current position) or a predetermined speed (30 km / h for the city, 80 km / h for the highway), the time required for movement can be calculated.

  In S25, the destination arrival time is calculated from the time required to move to the destination obtained in S24.

  The current time / arrival time calculating means 22 calculates the home arrival time by adding the time required for moving to the destination and the time required for moving to the home to the time when the current position is measured by the communication terminal 41. When the current position cannot be obtained, the arrival time at the home is calculated by adding the time required to move from the destination to the home to the time when the destination is received at the communication terminal 41. If the destination cannot be obtained, the destination is temporarily set as home, and the arrival time is calculated by adding the travel time from the current position to the home to the time when the current position is measured.

  In addition to the above method, a method generally used in a navigation device or the like may be used as the above calculation method of the movement time / movement distance, current time / arrival time.

  At S26, the on-arrival charge state calculation means / charge time calculation means 23 calculates the charge state of the storage battery when it arrives at the destination and the time required to charge the storage battery to a predetermined level.

  The state of charge on arrival is calculated based on the current state of charge received from the communication terminal 41, the distance traveled to return to the home via the destination, and the amount of power required to travel the unit distance (current It can be calculated by (charging state) − (movement distance) × (required electric energy per unit distance).

  The charging time is calculated from the amount of electric power required to reach a predetermined level (for example, 80% charge amount) from the state of charge upon arrival and the charging characteristics of the charging device. Alternatively, when using another person's charging device, the required minimum charge is determined from the distance traveled to return home from the other person's charging device, regardless of the current state of charge It may be an amount.

  Thereafter, the permission condition setting means 24 determines the use permission conditions (1) to (6) and generates a permission condition.

  In S27, determination is made from the current position of the electric vehicle as in the use permission condition (1).

  The permission condition setting unit 24 determines whether or not the current position of the electric vehicle is away from the installation location (for example, home) of the charging device for a predetermined time or more. For example, the predetermined time is 30 minutes as the minimum time required for charging.

  For example, if the current position of the authorized person's electric vehicle is two hours away from home, it takes two hours even if the electric vehicle returns home from there. Since the electric vehicle using the charging device is going out for at least two hours, the charging device can be permitted to others for two hours from the time when the current position of the electric vehicle is measured (S33).

  Of course, instead of 2 hours (time required for movement), it may be determined based on a distance that can be traveled in 2 hours (for example, average speed 40 km × 2 hours = about 80 km).

  Next, in S28, it judges from the destination of an electric vehicle like the said use permission conditions (2). If the destination is not set, it is not possible to determine, so S28 is skipped.

  In S28, it is determined whether or not the destination of the electric vehicle is away from the installation location (for example, home) of the charging device for a predetermined time or more.

  For example, if the destination of the licensed user's electric vehicle is two hours away from home, the electric vehicle that uses the charging device will be out for at least two hours before returning to the home from the destination. The charging device can be permitted to others for 2 hours from the time of receiving the destination (S33).

  Next, in S29, determination is made from the current position and the destination of the electric vehicle as in the use permission condition (3). Since it can be determined from the current position and the destination of the electric vehicle, this method is more accurate than the use permission conditions (1) and (2). If the destination is not set, it cannot be determined, so S29 is skipped.

  In S29, it is determined whether or not the destination of the electric vehicle is away from the installation location (for example, home) of the charging device for a predetermined time or more.

  For example, if it is assumed that the distance from the current position of the licensee's electric vehicle to the destination is 1 hour and the distance from the destination to the home is 2 hours, the charging device is used for at least 3 hours before returning to the home. Since the electric vehicle to be operated is going out, it is possible to permit the use of the charging device to others for 3 hours from the time when the current position of the electric vehicle is measured (S33).

  Further, when the destination of the electric vehicle is the installation location (for example, home) of the charging device, the same calculation as S27 is performed.

  Next, in S <b> 30, the use permission condition (4) is determined for a case where the electric vehicle is charged by using another person's charging device on the go. S30 is skipped when the other person's charging device is not used on the go.

  The control device 51 knows the charging device to be used and its location from the reservation information (d) and the reservation notification (e) for using the charging device of another person. Even if the user does not set the destination, the control device 51 can set the destination.

  For example, the position of the charging device of the other person used by the licensed user's electric vehicle can be determined by position information that may be a point two hours ahead from the installation location (eg, home) of the charging device of the authorized user. Therefore, it takes about 2 hours even if the authorized person returns to the owner's home immediately after the end of charging. Therefore, since the electric vehicle is going out for at least two hours, it is possible to permit the other person to use the charging device for two hours after the electric vehicle reserves the charging device of the other person (S33).

  Furthermore, if the current position of the electric vehicle of the authorized person is known, the time required from the current position to the location of the charging device of the other person (for example, 1 hour) is calculated and combined with the above two hours, the electric It takes more than 3 hours for the vehicle to return home immediately after arriving at the other person's charger. Therefore, since the electric vehicle is going out for at least these three hours, the charging device can be permitted to others for three hours after receiving the current position of the electric vehicle (S33).

  Finally, in S31, the above-mentioned use permission condition (5) is determined for the charging time when the electric vehicle is charged by using another person's charging device on the go. S31 is skipped when the other person's charging device is not used on the go.

  The control device 51 knows the charging device to be used and its location from the reservation information (d) and the reservation notification (e) for using the charging device of another person. Even if the user does not set the destination, the control device 51 can set the destination.

  For example, when a licensee's electric vehicle uses another person's charging device to charge for 2 hours from 14:00, the control device 51 uses the reservation information to transmit the 2 Time can be calculated. Since the electric vehicle is going out for 2 hours from 14:00, it is possible to permit the use of the charging device to others during the time when charging is reserved (S33).

  Further, in accordance with the use permission condition (4), the charging is performed for 2 hours from 14:00, and then 2 hours from the place of the other person's charging device to return to the home is added. Since the electric vehicle is out during the time, the use of the charging device can be permitted to others (S33).

  The permission condition setting unit 24 sets a permission condition as to whether or not to permit use of the charging device at home by another person based on the determination results of S27 to S31. In any of S27 to S31, if there is a condition for permitting another person to use the charging device, the use permission is added to the permission condition in S33. If there is no condition for permitting the use of the charging device by another person, the use disapproval is added to the permission condition in S32.

  If there are a plurality of conditions permitting use in one charging device, the one with higher accuracy is adopted.

  FIG. 8 shows an example in which the use permission conditions (1) to (5) are calculated for each electric vehicle of the owner of the charging device as described above.

  (A) The vehicle of the owner of the charging device 1 shows the case of the use permission condition (1).

  As a result of receiving the current position (b) of the owner's electric vehicle, the distance to the charging device (home) was 80 km, and the speed was 40 km / h, and the time required for movement was 2 hours (c). If the destination (d) is unknown but the shortest arrival time is calculated on the assumption that you are heading to your home, the shortest arrival time at your home will be 14:00 if it is 12:00 (ku). Therefore, the time during which the use of the charging device at home can be permitted to others is from the current time (12:00) to 14:00 (a).

  (B) The vehicle of the owner of the charging device 2 shows the case of the use permission condition (2).

  The destination (d) of the owner's electric vehicle was received, the distance between the destination and the charging device (home) was 40 km, and the travel time was 1 hour (e).

  Since the current position (c) is unknown, the travel time from the current position to the destination is unknown, but assuming that the current position is close to the destination, the shortest arrival time from the destination to the home is 13:00. The time during which the charging device at home can be used by another person is from the current time (12:00) to 13:00 (a).

  (C) The vehicle of the owner of the charging device 3 shows the case of the use permission condition (3).

  As a result of receiving and calculating the current position (b) and destination (d) of the owner's electric vehicle, the destination is 40 km for 1 hour (c) and the arrival time is 13:00 (f). The time of departure from the destination and the next destination are unknown, but if the shortest arrival time is calculated on the assumption that the destination immediately departs and returns home, the distance between the home and the destination is 1 at 40 km. Because it is time (e), the estimated arrival time at home is 14:00. Therefore, the time during which the use of the charging device at home can be permitted to others is from the current time (12:00) to 14:00 (a).

  (D) The car of the owner of the charging device 4 shows the case of the use permission condition (4).

  When the owner's electric vehicle is charged by using the charging device of another person on the go, the location of the charging device is known by the control device 51. The distance between the other person's charger and his home was 240 km, and the time required for the movement was 3 hours (e). The speed was set to 80 km / h because it was traveling on a highway.

  As a result of receiving the current position (A) of the owner's electric vehicle, it takes 1 hour to arrive at a distance of 80 km from the charging device of the other person (c), and the estimated arrival time is 13:00 (f). The charging time of the other person's charging device is unknown, but if the shortest arrival time is calculated on the assumption that the charging time is short and heading home after completion of charging, the distance to the home is 240 km and it takes 3 hours (e) The shortest arrival time at home is 16:00. Accordingly, the time during which the use of the charging device at home can be permitted to others is from the current time (12:00) to 16:00 (a).

  (E) The car of the owner of the charging device 5 shows the case of the use permission condition (5).

  When the owner's electric vehicle is charged using another person's charging device on the go, the location and charging time of the charging device can be known by the control device 51. The distance between the other person's charger and his home was 240 km, and the time required for the movement was 3 hours (e).

As a result of receiving the current position (A) of the owner's electric vehicle, it takes 1 hour to arrive at a distance of 80 km from the charging device of the other person (c), and the estimated arrival time is 13:00 (f). Therefore, charging for 1 hour (ki) and calculating the shortest arrival time on the assumption that it will head to the home after the end of charging, the distance from the home is 240 km, it takes 3 hours (e) The shortest arrival time to the home is It will be 17:00. Therefore, the time during which the use of the charging device at home can be permitted to others is from the current time (12:00) to 17:00 (a).

  In FIG. 7, for the convenience of explanation, S27 to S31 are determined in the order of the use permission conditions (1) to (5). However, the order is not limited to this, and in (1) to (5) The one with the highest accuracy should be adopted. For example, priority is given to the use permission time in the order of (3), (2), (1), and priority is given to the use permission time in the order of (5), (4) when using the charging device of another person.

  As described above, the permission condition setting unit 24 sets the time (a) for setting the use permission at the use permission time (e) in the permission conditions of FIG. The set permission condition is included in (a) the permission condition of the first embodiment and stored in the control device 51 (S3 in FIG. 2 of the first embodiment), and a matching search is performed with the request information from the communication terminal of the other party. .

  If use is not permitted in S32, the search for a charging device that satisfies the requirements from others is excluded and not included (S7 in FIG. 2). In addition, even if the use is permitted in S33 in time, if the use is not permitted under other conditions at the owner's intention, it will be excluded from the search for charging devices that satisfy the requirements from others. Absent.

  As described above, in the second embodiment, the control device relates to the current position or destination of the electric vehicle belonging to the owner in the permission condition that is a condition for permitting the other person to use his or her own charging device. Consider the time it takes to get the information and get to the location of the charging device that the electric vehicle is allowed to use.

  Thereby, since the time when the electric vehicle of the owner of the charging device returns to the installation location of the charging device can be known, the charging device can be permitted to be used by others during that time.

  As described above, the second embodiment has the following effects.

  (1) The information about the position of the first electric vehicle is received, the movement time from the received position to the installation location of the charging device is calculated, and the time from the time when the position of the first electric vehicle is measured Since the charging device permits charging of the other electric vehicle, the charging device can charge the other electric vehicle until the first electric vehicle moves from the current position to the installation location of the charging device.

  (2) The information regarding the destination of the first electric vehicle is received, the travel time from the received destination to the installation location of the charging device is calculated, and during the travel time from the time when the destination is received, the charging device Since charging of the other electric vehicle is permitted, it is possible to charge the other electric vehicle with the charging device until the first electric vehicle moves from the destination to the installation location of the charging device.

  (3) Receive information on the position and destination of the first electric vehicle, and calculate the total travel time of the travel time from the received position to the destination and the travel time from the destination to the installation location of the charging device Since the charging device permits charging of the other electric vehicle from the time when the position is measured, the first electric vehicle moves from the current position to the installation location of the charging device via the destination. The other electric vehicle can be charged with the charging device until it moves.

  (4) The first electric vehicle receives information related to the use location when the other person's charging device is used, calculates the travel time from the received use location to the installation location of the own charging device, and relates to the use location During the travel time from the time when the information is received, charging of another electric vehicle is permitted with the own charging device, so that the first electric vehicle moves from the charging location of the other person to the installation location of the own charging device. In the meantime, another electric vehicle can be charged by the charging device.

  (5) The first electric vehicle receives information on the usage location and usage time of the location where the other person's charging device is used, and the travel time and usage time from the received usage location to the installation location of the own charging device. The charging time of the first electric vehicle is charged at the charging place of the other person because the charging device permits the charging of the other electric vehicle with the own charging device during the total time from the time when the information on the usage time is received. Then, it is possible to charge another electric vehicle with the charging device before moving to the place where the own charging device is installed.

(Embodiment 3)
By the way, in Embodiment 2, as shown in FIG. 8, the current position (A) and the destination (E) of the electric vehicle of the owner of the charging device are included in the permission conditions and transmitted from the communication terminal 41 to the control device 51. In some cases, the behavior of the owner is acquired and accumulated in the control device 51 and privacy is a concern.

  Therefore, a method is conceivable in which distance and time are calculated on the communication terminal side and only the calculation result is transmitted to the control device. This will be described below.

  FIG. 9 is a configuration diagram of the communication terminal 42 and the control device 52.

  FIG. 9 is compared with FIG. 6 of the second embodiment, which is on the control device 51 side in FIG. 6, travel time / movement distance calculation means 21, current time / arrival time calculation means 22, arrival charge state calculation means Bring the same function as the charging time calculation means 23 to the communication terminal 42 side. This is the movement time / movement distance calculation means 31, the current time / arrival time calculation means 32, and the arrival charge state calculation means / charge time calculation means 33.

  Since these means can also be used as a navigation device or a charging wattmeter mounted on an electric vehicle, there is an advantage that a communication terminal can be manufactured at low cost.

  A flowchart is shown in FIG.

  10, compared with FIG. 7 of Embodiment 2, S24-S26 which were processed by the control apparatus 51 side is performed by the communication terminal 42 (S44-S46).

  Then, as a result of the calculation, the movement distance between the vehicle and its own charging device, the movement distance between the vehicle and the destination and the movement time (c in FIG. 8), the distance required to move to the destination and the movement time. (E) The arrival time at the destination (f) and the usage time (g) when using the charging device of the other person are included in the permission conditions and transmitted from the communication terminal 42 to the control device 52. Therefore, the current position (b) and destination (d) of the authorized person's electric vehicle are not transmitted to the control device side.

  Although not shown, S27 to S29, S30 to S31, S32, and S33 performed after S46 in FIG. 10 are also performed by the permission condition transmitting unit 26 on the communication terminal 42 side, and the results of S32 and S33 are included in the permission conditions. You may transmit to the control apparatus 52 from the communication terminal 42 in S2. In this way, neither the destination nor the travel time is transmitted to the control device 52.

  As described above, the third embodiment has the following effects.

(1) A communication terminal belonging to a licensed user of the charging device includes the distance from the current position of the licensed user's electric vehicle to the installation location of the charging device permitted to be used, or the time required for movement, in the control device. Since the transmission is performed, it is possible to charge another electric vehicle with the charging device until the first electric vehicle moves from the current position to the installation location of the charging device, as in the second embodiment (1). In addition, since the current position of the electric vehicle is not transmitted to the control device, the privacy of the authorized person is protected.

  (2) A communication terminal belonging to a licensed user of the charging device includes the distance from the destination of the licensed user's electric vehicle to the installation location of the charging device permitted to be used or the time required for movement, in the control device. Since transmission is performed, as in the second embodiment (2), another electric vehicle can be charged by the charging device until the first electric vehicle moves from the destination to the installation location of the charging device. In addition, since the destination of the electric vehicle is not transmitted to the control device, the privacy of the authorized person can be protected.

  (3) The communication terminal belonging to the licensee of the charging device uses a time when the electric vehicle arrives at the charging device installation location when the destination of the licensed user's electric vehicle is the installation location of the own charging device. Since it is included in the permission condition and transmitted to the control device, in the same manner as in the second embodiment (3), the first electric vehicle moves from the current position to the installation location of the charging device via the destination. Other electric vehicles can be charged with the charging device. In addition, since the destination of the electric vehicle is not transmitted to the control device, the privacy of the authorized person can be protected.

  (4) The communication terminal belonging to the authorized person using the charging device receives information on the place of use when the authorized person's electric vehicle uses the other person's charging device, and from the place where the other person's charging device is used. Since the permitter uses the distance to the location where the charging device is installed or the time required for movement is included in the permission condition and transmitted to the control device, the first electric vehicle is similar to the second embodiment (4). It is possible to charge another electric vehicle with the charging device while moving from the charging location of the other person to the installation location of the own charging device. In addition, since the place of use of the charging device for the electric vehicle is not transmitted to the control device, the privacy of the authorized person can be protected.

  (5) The communication terminal belonging to the authorized person using the charging device receives information on the usage time when the authorized vehicle of the authorized user uses the other person's charging device, and determines the usage time of the other person's charging device. Since it is included in the permission condition and transmitted to the control device, the first electric vehicle is charged at the charging location of the other person and moved to the installation location of its own charging device, as in the second embodiment (5). Meanwhile, other electric vehicles can be charged with the charging device. In addition, since the location of use of the charging device for the electric vehicle is not transmitted to the control device, the privacy of the authorized person can be protected.

(Embodiment 4)
By the way, in Embodiment 1, the power supply capability or surplus power of the charging device is included in (a) (U) of the use permission condition. For example, 100V power supply or 200V power supply, power that can be supplied to the power supply of the charging device (contracted power with the power company, power that is interrupted by the breaker), solar power generation or wind power generation, etc. It is.

  When the suppliable power of the charging device is small, it is necessary to charge while adjusting the power used by the charging device and other electric devices so that the breaker does not shut off. For example, if the contract power of the home where the charging device is installed is 40 A with a 100 V power supply, the charging device and the electric device are adjusted so that the entire home is 40 A or less.

  If a household electrical device is prioritized over a charging device charged by others, when the electrical device uses 30A, the charging device can use only 10A. In other words, the power that can be supplied to the power supply of the charging device is the remaining power obtained by subtracting the power used by the electrical equipment from the contract power with the power company.

In addition, when the household is equipped with a power generation device such as solar power generation or fuel cell to generate power, surplus power that can be supplied to the power supply of the charging device is the addition of the generated power to the contract power with the electric power company. It is the remaining power that is obtained by subtracting the power used by the electrical equipment. That is, when power is generated by the power generation device, the power that can be supplied to the power source of the charging device increases.

  In this way, the power supply capability or surplus power of the charging device varies depending on the usage status of the electrical equipment and the power generation status of the power generation device, so the power usage for measuring the power usage of the house or store where the charging device is installed Electric power used by the charging device and the electrical equipment so as to prevent the breaker from shutting off so as not to exceed the contracted power in cooperation with the charging device when the power consumption exceeds a predetermined value (for example, 80% of the contracted power). Reduce the adjustment. In addition, when adjusting the power in the charging device, this is communicated from the communication device of the charging device to the control device.

  Moreover, the power generation amount measuring means for measuring the power generated by the solar power generation or the fuel cell is provided. And when generated electric power increases and surplus electric power generate | occur | produces a predetermined value (for example, 1 kW or more), this is notified to a control apparatus from the communication apparatus of a charging device.

  When the control device searches for a charging device that satisfies the request information, the control device preferentially searches for a charging device in which surplus power is generated, and uses the surplus power for charging. Conversely, a charging device that requires power adjustment has a lower priority than other charging devices so that charging is not performed where power is insufficient.

  Further, when the control device receives a notification that the power adjustment is necessary from a charging device that has already been reserved, it searches again for a charging device different from the charging device.

  This is illustrated.

  First, the flow of the sequence diagram of FIG. 2 is confirmed. The communication terminal A transmits (a) permission conditions to the control device, and the communication terminal B transmits (b) request information to the control device, and the control device performs a matching search with the permission conditions and the request conditions (S7). . Then, (c) reply information as a result thereof is transmitted to the communication terminal B, the reservation of the charging device is decided by the communication terminal B, and (d) the reservation information is returned to the control device. The control device transmits the reserved content to the corresponding communication terminal A, the communication device of the charging device, and the communication terminal B as (e) reservation notification information.

  Next, FIG. 11 will be described with reference to FIG. 2 showing a sequence diagram after (e) reservation notification information is transmitted.

  After the reservation notification information at S10, if the charging device 12 detects the necessity of power adjustment or the generation of surplus power by the used power measuring means or surplus power measuring means (S51), the communication device 12 of the charging device ( h) It transmits to the control apparatus 5 as electric power information (S52).

  This (h) power information includes (a) the identification information of the charging device in the use permission condition (FIG. 3), (u) the power supply capability or surplus power of charging, and information on the detection time.

  The control device (S53) that has received the power information receives the information on the charging device that requires power adjustment and the charging device in which surplus power is generated, and in the use permission condition (c) in FIG. This is written, stored, and reflected in the permission conditions of the usable charging device (S54).

  Then, the permission unit checks whether or not the charging device requiring power adjustment has been reserved and has not been charged. If this is the case, the following operation is performed to create a new charging device. Search and make a reservation.

First, the communication terminal B that has reserved a charging device that requires power adjustment is requested to (i) update the request information (S55), and the latest current position and required charge amount are acquired. (J) The control device that has received the updated request information calculates and stores the request information (same as in FIG. 2 but omits illustration here), and then re-searches for a charging device that satisfies the updated request information. Perform (S57).

  When searching for a charging device that satisfies the required conditions, the permission means refers to the use permission condition (b) and searches for a charging device in which surplus power is generated preferentially.

  Then, (c) the search result is transmitted to the communication terminal B using the answer information (S58). At this time, (e) in FIG. 5B includes information on a charging device that requires power adjustment and a charging device in which surplus power is generated. It is displayed on the communication terminal B and notified to the other person B together with the circumstances of the re-search.

  The communication terminal B acknowledges this (d) transmits the reservation information to the control device (S59), and the control device displays the reserved content as (e) the communication terminal A corresponding to the reservation notification information, the communication device of the charging device, It transmits to the communication terminal B (S60).

  As described above, the control device receives information on the suppliable power (whether power adjustment is required) or surplus power of the power source that supplies power to the charging device, and the permission means including this information is the charging device. Allow charging of electric vehicles.

  In addition, the information on the charging device that requires power adjustment or the charging device that generates surplus power may be transmitted from the communication terminal of the charging device or acquired by the control device in units of installed regions. For example, information on a district where power adjustment is necessary (a district where power is insufficient) is acquired via the Internet, and information on a district where surplus power is generated by the solar power generation device is acquired based on a weather forecast.

  In this embodiment, the installation location of the charging device has been described as home. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and any location where an electric vehicle can be stopped such as a parking lot, an office, or a factory in a store or commercial facility may be used. The more such places, the greater the effect of this embodiment. For example, the present invention is effective in a case where a charging device of a commercial facility such as a supermarket is opened to a store visitor, or in a case where a plurality of charging devices such as a charging stand are provided to charge a large number of electric vehicles. is there.

  In the present embodiment, the electric vehicle has been described as an electric vehicle. However, the electric vehicle is not limited to this, and a hybrid vehicle, an electric bicycle, an electric wheelchair, and an electric farm equipment can be used as long as the vehicle is equipped with a battery and moves electrically. Etc.

  The communication terminal is connected to a mobile phone network or a data communication network such as a navigation device, a mobile phone or a data communication card, or a communication network (for example, an ETC communication network) installed on the road side such as an ETC in-vehicle device. Various communication terminals such as those to be connected can be used. Moreover, the form may be personal or corporate property, rental, or lease. The communication device of the charging device may also be personal, corporate property, rental, or lease.

  In addition, for the sake of simplicity, it has been described that the owner of the charging device is an authorized person. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the charging device lease / rental contractor or the commercial facility where the charging device is installed. Any person who uses the charging device on a daily basis, such as an employee in the office or an office employee, or a person who has the right to use it preferentially over others. For example, an electric car dealer or rental company uses a charging device between chain stores to give priority to charging the electric car of the store, and charge the electric car of another store when the charging device is available. I can have you.

As described above, according to the present invention, instead of permitting the use of the charging device of one's own electric vehicle to another person, the charging device owned by the other person can be used so that the charging device can be used mutually. it can.

  In addition to the members who have contracted the use of the charging device with others, the present invention may be implemented in a narrow range such as acquaintances, relatives, brothers, etc. If you participate in the use system, the effect will increase. For example, employees of the same company, owners of electric vehicles of the same manufacturer / model, etc.

  If it is normal to rent a charging device on the go according to the present invention, it is necessary to always carry a storage battery larger than necessary in an electric vehicle in preparation for long-distance movement that is only several times a year Disappears. That is, it is possible to reduce resources and energy for producing a storage battery, and energy that is always mounted and moved by the storage battery.

  In addition, even if it is difficult to install a charging device in a parking lot, for example, if the home is an apartment house according to the present invention, an electric vehicle can be obtained by searching for a charging device that lives near the home. Can own and charge. In other words, more people can use electric vehicles, including those who have restrictions on the installation of the charging device.

  In addition, when searching for a parking lot that also serves as a charging place at the destination, if another person's parking lot is available, it can be used. In other words, the present invention also has the aspect of a system for sharing a parking lot, and can effectively use land in places with few existing parking lots such as sightseeing spots and urban areas.

  And in a charging station that expands the range of others and charges anyone's electric vehicle, it is effective to reserve and schedule charging time as in the present invention in order to reduce charging waiting time. .
