본 발명은 전기차의 충전시 사용자 인증을 자동적으로 수행할 수 있기 때문에, 별도의 멤버십 카드 등을 소지하거나 직접 충전기에 회원 번호를 입력시킬 필요가 없다. Since the present invention can automatically perform user authentication when charging an electric vehicle, there is no need to possess a separate membership card or the like or to directly input a membership number into the charger.

본 발명은 각 충전기에 부여된 고유 전화 번호로 전화를 걸어서 사용자 인증이 가능하도록 함으로써 사용자는 간편하게 사용자 인증 절차를 수행할 수 있다. The present invention enables user authentication by calling a unique phone number assigned to each charger, so that the user can conveniently perform a user authentication procedure.

저장부(330)는 인증부(320)가 인증을 수행하는데 필요한 사용자 정보를 저장한다. 여기서, 사용자 정보란 사용자가 별도의 단말기를 통하여 충전 관리 서버(300)에 등록 및 저장시킨 정보로서, 차량 정보(차량 번호 등) 및 사용자 개인 정보(이름, 주민등록번호, 주소 등)가 될 수 있다.The storage unit 330 stores user information required for the authentication unit 320 to perform authentication. Here, the user information is information registered and stored in the charging management server 300 by the user through a separate terminal, and may be vehicle information (vehicle number, etc.) and user personal information (name, resident registration number, address, etc.).

인증부(320)는 수신한 차량 번호판 정보와 저장부(330)에 기 저장된 사용자 정보를 비교하고, 비교 결과에 따라 사용자에 대한 인증을 완료할 수 있다. 이때, 수신한 차량 번호판 정보에 포함된 차량 번호 정보와 사용자 정보에 포함된 차량 번호 정보를 비교하여 차량 번호 정보가 서로 일치하면 사용자에 대한 인증을 완료할 수 있다.The authenticator 320 may compare the received vehicle license plate information with the user information pre-stored in the storage 330, and may complete the authentication for the user according to the comparison result. In this case, when the vehicle number information included in the received vehicle license plate information is compared with the vehicle number information included in the user information, and the vehicle number information matches each other, authentication for the user may be completed.

모니터링부(340)는 충전기(100)의 이용 현황을 실시간으로 모니터링할 수 있다. 충전기(100)의 이용 현황은 예를 들면, 충전기(100)의 잔존 충전 시간 및 충전 종료 시간 등과 같은 정보를 포함할 수 있다.The monitoring unit 340 may monitor the usage status of the charger 100 in real time. The usage status of the charger 100 may include, for example, information such as a remaining charging time and a charging end time of the charger 100 .

또한, 도 4를 참조하면, 본 발명의 사용자 인증 수단은 충전기(100)마다 고유 전화 번호가 부여되어 있고, 해당 전화 번호로 사용자가 전화를 걸면 사용자 전화 번호를 인식하여 자동 인증이 되도록 할 수 있다.In addition, referring to FIG. 4 , the user authentication means of the present invention is provided with a unique phone number for each charger 100, and when a user makes a call to the corresponding phone number, the user's phone number can be recognized and automatic authentication can be performed. .

즉, 충전기(100)에는 사용자의 전화 번호를 저장하는 저장부(105), 저장된 사용자의 전화 번호로 통화 연결시 CID를 충전 관리 서버(300)에 전송하는 호 수신부(106), 충전기(100)의 고유 전화 번호로 사용자가 전화를 걸면, 사용자의 전화 번호가 등록된 전화 번호인지 여부를 판단하고 등록된 전화 번호인 경우 사용자 인증을 승인하는 연산부(107)로 이루어질 수 있다. That is, the charger 100 includes a storage unit 105 that stores the user's phone number, a call receiver 106 that transmits the CID to the charging management server 300 when a call is connected to the stored user's phone number, and the charger 100. When a user makes a call to a unique phone number of , the operation unit 107 determines whether the user's phone number is a registered phone number and, if it is a registered phone number, approves the user authentication.

다른 예로서, 충전 관리 서버(300)에 저장부(105), 호 수신부(106), 연산부(107)를 마련하고, 사용자가 전화를 걸면, 충전 관리 서버(300)에서 수신하고, 인증 여부를 판단하고 충전기(100)에 전송할 수 있다. As another example, the storage unit 105, the call receiving unit 106, and the calculating unit 107 are provided in the charging management server 300, and when the user makes a call, the charging management server 300 receives it, and checks whether authentication It can be determined and transmitted to the charger 100 .

사용자 인증이 완료되면, 통화를 강제 종료하고, 충전 요금을 사용자에게 과금할 수 있다. When user authentication is completed, the call may be forcibly terminated and a charging fee may be charged to the user.

과금 방법은 사용자의 해당 단말기(스마트폰)를 통해 결제를 진행할 수 있다.The billing method may proceed with payment through the user's corresponding terminal (smartphone).

또한, 사용자의 전화 번호가 저장부(105)에 등록되지 않은 경우에는 사용자의 단말기로 충전 요금을 미리 결제하고, 사용자 인증을 승인한 다음 충전 서비스를 제공해줄 수 있다. In addition, if the user's phone number is not registered in the storage unit 105, the user may pay a charging fee in advance to the user's terminal, approve the user authentication, and then provide a charging service.

또한, 본 발명은 인증 수단으로서, 사용자의 전화 번호 대신에 지문을 미리 등록하고 사용자 인증 절차를 상기와 같이 진행할 수 있다. Also, according to the present invention, as an authentication means, a fingerprint may be pre-registered instead of a user's phone number and the user authentication procedure may be performed as described above.
