A charge box including a battery and including a portable charger for charging the IT device, a storage unit for storing the portable charger, and a charging module for supplying external power to the charging unit, An operation module, and a deposit processing module for receiving and refunding the deposit to increase the return rate of the portable charger.
Description
The present invention relates to a portable charger unmanned rental apparatus,
More particularly, the present invention relates to an unmanned rental device for storing a portable charger including a battery and charging the user's own IT equipment using the portable charger stored therein, .
Nowadays, IT devices require more battery power and require frequent charging, and therefore need a secondary battery or a power supply that can be charged for this reason. Although there are some devices that individuals carry around, it is an excellent service in terms of customer satisfaction to provide chargers to customers at large stores such as libraries, cafes, restaurants and public places.
In particular, smartphones are more battery-intensive than general mobile phones, and it is difficult to receive charging services at most convenience stores. In particular, 2.6 million iPhone users, one of the most popular among smartphones, can not be charged at convenience stores at all because they are battery-integrated. The inconvenience caused by battery shortage, which is a common problem of all smartphones, will increase day by day.
Since all the mobile phones currently used are smart phones, they are consuming a lot of power in spite of the development of battery technology because they are equipped with high specifications. In addition, other IT devices are equipped with high specification, Is still in existence.
As a related art related to the rental of such an IT equipment charger (battery), there is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-2013-0021584 (Mar. 06, 2013) (Rental service apparatus and method and system of auxiliary battery) However, in the related art, a technique of confirming whether or not to return the information by using the information of the rental person and the identification number of the bar code is suggested.
However, there is a possibility that inconvenience may arise in relation to the failure of barcode recognition, and since the charger can be rented by the administrator in order to recognize the barcode, the efficiency is deteriorated due to maintenance cost (labor cost, etc.) .
In order to solve this problem, there is a need for an unmanned charger for a charger which can be installed in a designated space and can be managed unattended even when an administrator does not reside.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems,
If the user wants to charge his / her IT equipment by storing the portable charger including the battery, the user can charge the IT equipment using the portable charger stored therein and return it after charging. However, It is aimed to enable unmanned management without residence.
In addition, it is possible to separately manage the charger and the cable so as to prevent a failure or electric power loss due to a short circuit, and to prevent the loss of the portable charger or the cable during operation,
In addition, if the return is not made so that the designated time has elapsed, an alarm is sent via text transmission, and a function of transmitting a character to the manager in case of non-return is added so that there is no fear of theft, And,
In addition, it is intended to check the life of the battery and charge capacity of the battery itself, and report the failure to a manager through text transmission to enable immediate maintenance.
According to the present invention,
A portable charger including a battery and including a portable charger for charging an IT device, a charging box including a charging module for supplying the portable charger to a storage portion for storing the portable charger, an operation module for performing an operation for opening and closing the charging box, And a deposit processing module for receiving and refunding the deposit to increase the return rate.
The portable electronic device further includes a cable for connecting the IT device and the boost unit of the portable charger. The storage unit further includes a cable storage unit for storing the cable, and the portable charger and the cable are stored in the storage unit and the cable storage unit, And returns the deposit after the payment.
A number storage unit for storing the user's mobile phone number input through the operation module, a return notification unit for transmitting a return alarm character to the mobile phone number after a predetermined time elapses, If not, a final notification character is transmitted to the user when the return notification is not made until the additional time set after the transmission of the return prompt character, and the administrator notifies the administrator of the notice number And a character transmission module including a final notification unit for transmitting the character string.
A voltage detector for detecting whether the remaining capacity of the portable charger satisfies a required charge when the charge voltage of the battery reaches a reference voltage; And a charge monitoring unit including a full-charge detecting unit for detecting whether the capacity meets a required charge amount.
The present invention having the above-
It is possible to manage without unattended installation even if the administrator is not installed in the designated space,
In addition, it is possible to manage the charger and the cable separately, thereby preventing the failure or electric power loss due to the short circuit, preventing the loss of the portable charger or the cable during operation,
In addition, with the aim of making it possible to manage without unauthorized access,
Further, it can check the service life of the battery and the charge capacity of the battery and report the failure to the manager through text transmission, so that the maintenance can be performed immediately.
