Search (S221), and transmits the information of the searched charging station 120 to the NEV terminal 110 (S223). At this time, the management device 120 is connected to the control center 140 through the HTTP protocol to request the information of a plurality of charging stations and then receive it and transmits to the NEV terminal 110.

Thus, when the NEV user cannot receive the goods due to a specific charging station, the user can receive guidance about other charging stations in close proximity, and afterwards, the NEV receiving request process from the step S201 on the other charging stations is found again. Repeat.

8 is a flowchart illustrating a user registration process according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 8, in the present invention, when charging the charging station 120 or renting and returning the NEV 111 from the charging station 120 in a public facility or the like, the user's information is preferably registered. To this end, in the present invention, when the user wants to rent the NEV 111, the user's identification information is registered in advance in the management device 130 (S301). Thus, the management device 130 stores the user's registration information in the memory unit 134 (S303).

Subsequently, a user who rents the NEV 111 inputs his identification information to the NEV terminal 110. In this case, the NEV terminal 110 determines whether the user's identification information has been input (S305), and if so, transmits the user's identification information to the management device 130 together with the release request of the NEV 111 (S307). As a result, the management device 130 maps the received identification information of the user and the identification information of the NEV to each other (S309).

Subsequently, the NEV terminal 110 determines whether a wear request of the NEV is input (S311), and when the wear request is input, the NEV terminal 110 identifies the identification information of the user to be worn and the NEV 111 to be worn. The information is transmitted to the management device 130 (S313), and the management device 130 compares the two received identification information with previously stored identification information (S315). In this comparison, it is determined whether they match with each other (S317). If there is a match, it is determined that the NEV 111 can be received and the wearable is transmitted to the NEV terminal 110 (S319).

While the invention has been shown and described with reference to certain preferred embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope of the appended claims, The genius will be so self-evident. Accordingly, the true scope of the present invention should be determined by the technical idea of the appended claims.

Electric vehicles are developing as an important means of transportation, and related facilities for electric vehicle users continue to be prepared in accordance with this trend. In particular, the NEV has become a very useful means of transportation in terms of public interest such as saving resources and improving the environment while providing convenience in using a small distance. Accordingly, facilities such as charging stations that can easily and conveniently use NEVs are expanding in many areas.

In view of this aspect, the present invention can easily provide the convenience of using the NEV by parking, renting, returning, storing, and managing the NEV at the charging station, and the status of a plurality of charging stations and NEVs distributed in various regions. It can be managed remotely, which can lead to administrators' time and material savings.

In addition, by using a charging station installed in public facilities, NEV can be charged at a desired time, and rental and return can be freely made.

Therefore, the present invention can be very usefully applied not only in daily life using NEV but also throughout the industry.
