It can be provided to servers or terminals, etc.

Figure 3 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an outdoor terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, the outdoor terminal 100 may include an input unit 110, a display unit 120, a payment processing unit 130, an operation status information providing unit 140, and a waiting vehicle information collection unit 150. You can.

The input unit 110 is configured to allow charging station staff or vehicle drivers to input information. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the input unit 110 is illustrated as a touch screen-type input means, but the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and various input methods such as a keyboard input method and a separate button input method are used. Includes.

The display unit 120 is configured to display various information such as charging station operation status information, payment information, waiting vehicle information, and equipment alarm information.

The payment processing unit 130 is configured to process payments for charging costs. The payment processing unit 130 may calculate the payment amount according to the amount of charged hydrogen injected into the vehicle by the hydrogen charger and the gas unit price, and display the calculated payment amount and the gas unit price through the display unit 120. Charging station staff or drivers can pay the displayed amount using a credit card, etc. When payment is made using a credit card, etc., the payment processing unit 130 may transmit payment information to the credit card company server and add the payment amount to the charging station sales amount.

The operating status information providing unit 140 may monitor the charging station operating status and provide charging station operating status information indicating the charging station operating status through the display unit 120.

In one embodiment, the charging station operating status information may include state of charge information related to the state of charge of the hydrogen charger. For example, charging status information may include information such as bank pressure, heat exchanger temperature, N2 pressure, TT pressure, total flow rate, FCEV pressure, FCEV temperature, and number of waiting vehicles.

When a hydrogen vehicle performs hydrogen charging, the pressure in the hydrogen storage tank decreases, and if this pressure falls below a certain standard, hydrogen charging is not possible. When the pressure in the tank falls below a certain standard, hydrogen gas can be injected into the tank and compressed to increase the gas pressure in the tank. This process takes time, and the charging station staff can easily confirm from the charging status information displayed directly on the outdoor terminal 100 that the gas pressure in the tank is low and that charging is being prepared.

In one embodiment, the charging station operation status information may include facility alarm information indicating whether there is an abnormality in the hydrogen charging station facility. For example, facility alarm information may include alarm data such as cooling water circulation pump failure detection data, chiller failure detection data, and gas pressure data. Charging station staff can check facility alarm information in real time through an outdoor terminal near the hydrogen charger without checking it from the central management system installed in the office.

Charging station operation status information may be received from the charging station equipment controller (PLC central management system or site controller). The charging station equipment controller may control the charging equipment of the hydrogen charging station and collect charging station operation information, including the operating status of the charging equipment, equipment alarms, and sales information regarding the sale of charged hydrogen, from the charging equipment of the hydrogen charging station.

When the operation status of the charging station is in a suspended state, the operation status information provider 140 changes the operation status of the charging station to a normal operation state when payment processing is performed by the payment processing unit 130, and integrates monitoring connected through the network. Changed operating status information can be transmitted to servers or servers or terminals of external organizations or external companies (KOGAS, automobile companies).

When the hydrogen tank pressure drops and the charging station staff is preparing for charging, the charging station staff can proceed with charging when the hydrogen tank pressure reaches the standard pressure. When the charging station staff performs hydrogen charging work and payment processing is completed by the driver, the hydrogen charger is in a normal operating state. Therefore, the operation status information provider 140 automatically settles the charging station operation status when payment processing is performed. It can be changed to operating state. According to this configuration, the charging station operation status can be automatically reflected in real time without the need for additional manipulation by the charging station staff.

The waiting vehicle information collection unit 150 may collect waiting vehicle information including the number of vehicles waiting for hydrogen charging. The waiting vehicle information collection unit 150 collects the waiting vehicle information input through the input unit 110 and sends it to an integrated monitoring server connected through a network, or to a server or terminal of an external organization or external company (KOGAS, an automobile company). Collected waiting vehicle information can be transmitted.

Currently, the number of hydrogen charging stations and hydrogen chargers installed across the country is insufficient compared to the number of hydrogen vehicles, and drivers of hydrogen vehicles visit the hydrogen charging station closest to their location when the vehicle runs out of hydrogen fuel. However, if there are many vehicles waiting at the hydrogen charging station you visit, you must wait or go to another distant hydrogen charging station.

In the case of hydrogen charging stations, unlike gasoline gas pumps that can continuously refuel one vehicle and then refuel the next vehicle, a tank pressure higher than a certain pressure is required (the tank pressure decreases after charging one vehicle), so the tank pressure is lower than the specified pressure. If the pressure drops, time is needed for the tank pressure to recover. Therefore, in cases where there are many waiting vehicles, unlike gasoline gas pumps, hydrogen chargers require more waiting time. According to the present invention, information on vehicles waiting for the corresponding hydrogen charging station and hydrogen charger is collected from the outdoor terminal 100 and provided to an integrated monitoring server, or a server or terminal of an external organization or external company (KOGAS, automobile company), etc., so that the user After checking the waiting vehicle information provided through the terminal (mobile phone, WEB, car navigation, etc.), you can visit a nearby hydrogen charging station where there are no waiting vehicles.

The waiting vehicle information collection unit 150 may provide an input menu for entering the number of waiting vehicles through the display unit during charging processing of a hydrogen charger or payment processing. The waiting vehicle information collection unit 150 prevents the charging station staff from proceeding to the next step unless the charging station staff enters the number of waiting vehicles during charging or payment processing, thereby ensuring that the number of waiting vehicles is necessarily entered and collected.

The outdoor terminal 100 is connected to an integrated monitoring server or a server or terminal of an external organization or an external company (KOGAS, an automobile company) through a network, and reports the charging station operation status to the operation status provider 140 and the payment processing unit 130. Information, waiting vehicle information, and sales information can be provided.

The outdoor terminal 100 can display charging equipment status information such as bank pressure, heat exchanger temperature, N2 pressure, TT pressure, total flow rate, FCEV pressure, FCEV temperature, and number of waiting vehicles on the screen. Charging station staff can check charging equipment status information in real time through the screen of the outdoor terminal 100 installed near the charger. Accordingly, there is no need for charging station staff to go to the charging station office where the central management system is installed to check charging equipment status information.

Figure 8 shows a method of integrated sales management using an outdoor terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The outdoor terminal 100 may be connected to the site controller through a wired or wireless network, and the site controller may be connected to the FOS terminal through a wired or wireless network. When payment processing is performed in the outdoor terminal 100, payment information and sales information are transmitted to the site controller in real time, and the transmitted payment information and sales information may be transmitted to the FOS terminal in real time. Payment information and sales information can be transmitted to the integrated monitoring server through a wired or wireless network, and payment information and sales information can be confirmed through an integrated sales management system connected to the integrated monitoring server.

According to this integrated sales management method, real-time sales information is transmitted from the site controller (POS) of each charging station to the integrated monitoring server and stored and managed in a database, making it easy to analyze and manage real-time sales status for each charging station. In addition, various sales analysis and reports can be provided, and menus can be configured according to login ID permissions.
