The charging method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is further described below, and as shown in fig. 2, the method may specifically include the following steps:

step 210, obtaining identification information of a vehicle and a payment account bound by an OBU of the vehicle;

further, the acquiring the identification information of the vehicle includes:

and acquiring first identification information from the vehicle-mounted unit according to a microwave reading antenna installed on the charging pile, and taking the first identification information as the identification information of the vehicle.

Exemplarily; fill electric pile can be electric automobile and be used for the replenishing device of input electric energy, can install in charging field, public building (market, public parking area etc.) and resident's parking area, can be according to different vehicle types for all kinds of vehicles charge. When the charging pile is installed in a charging field, the information acquisition equipment and the microwave reading antenna can be installed in the charging field or on the charging pile; when charging pile is installed in public building or resident's parking area, information acquisition equipment and microwave read antenna can only be installed on charging pile. The microwave reading antenna can receive or transmit signals of a preset waveband, and can receive information in a non-contact manner within a certain distance by transmitting through space waves. The first identification information may be identification information of a bound vehicle of the on-board unit, which is obtained from the on-board unit by a microwave reading antenna installed on the charging pile.

In a specific example, the microwave reading antenna installed on the charging pile acquires first identification information of a vehicle bound by the vehicle-mounted unit from information stored in the vehicle-mounted unit as identification information of the vehicle, and the first identification information is used for identity verification of the vehicle on which the vehicle-mounted unit is installed and the vehicle on which the vehicle-mounted unit is bound, so that the situation that the identification information stored in the vehicle-mounted unit is not consistent with the identification information of the installed vehicle is avoided, and when the vehicle-mounted unit is installed in an error, the fee deduction device deducts the error fee.

Further, the acquiring the identification information of the vehicle includes:

acquiring a first identification image of the vehicle according to a camera in the charging station;

and identifying the first identification image to obtain second identification information, and taking the second identification information as the identification information of the vehicle.

For example, the first identification image may be an image shot by a camera in the charging station and containing identification information of the vehicle, and the second identification information may be identification information of a fixed position of the first identification image of the vehicle at a preset position acquired in real time by the information acquisition device. The second identification information is identification information which is acquired in real time and recognized by a first identification image fixed position of the vehicle at a preset position, and the first identification information is information which is pre-stored and read by the microwave reading antenna in the vehicle-mounted unit.

In a specific example, the camera in the charging station may be a camera installed on the charging pile, or a camera installed in the charging field; when the vehicle enters the camera shooting position, the camera shoots the vehicle on the camera shooting position to obtain a first identification image, the first table identification image is identified to obtain identification information on a fixed position, the identification information on the fixed position in the first identification image is used as second identification information, and the vehicle used for installing the vehicle-mounted unit and the vehicle used for binding the vehicle-mounted unit with information are used for identity verification, so that the phenomenon that the vehicle-mounted unit mistakenly deducts a payment account when the identification information stored in the vehicle-mounted unit is not consistent with the identification information of the installed vehicle and the vehicle-mounted unit is installed in a wrong way is avoided.

Step 220, determining whether the first identification information is consistent with the second identification information;

in a specific implementation, the second identification information is identification information which is acquired in real time and recognized by a fixed position of a first identification image of the vehicle at a preset position, and the first identification information is information which is pre-stored and read by the microwave reading antenna in the vehicle-mounted unit. Comparing the first identification information with the second identification information to determine whether the first identification information is consistent with the second identification information, if so, indicating that the identification information stored in the vehicle-mounted unit is consistent with the identification information of the vehicle, and the vehicle-mounted unit on the vehicle is not in problem and cannot generate the phenomenon of deducting a wrong payment account; if the first identification information is inconsistent with the second identification information, the charging payment cannot be carried out by using the payment account bound by the On Board Unit (OBU), and other payment modes corresponding to the vehicle are required for payment, such as: cash payments, etc.

And 230, when the first identification information is consistent with the second identification information, triggering and controlling the charging pile to charge the vehicle.

In the specific example, the first identification information is compared with the second identification information, whether the first identification information is consistent with the second identification information is determined, if the first identification information is consistent with the second identification information, the identification information stored in the vehicle-mounted unit is consistent with the identification information of the vehicle, the vehicle-mounted unit on the vehicle is not installed, a fee deduction device can not be used for deducting a wrong payment account, the payment account bound by the vehicle-mounted unit OBU can be used for paying the charging fee of the vehicle, the charging information platform is triggered to control the charging pile to charge the vehicle, and the charging fee of the charging pile is calculated according to the charging duration of the charging pile for charging the vehicle and the charging unit price of the charging pile after the charging is completed. And recording the charging cost of the current charging on the charging information platform according to the identification information of the vehicle.

Further, before the controlling the charging pile charges the vehicle, the method further includes:

determining whether the identification information of the vehicle is present in a blacklist of charging information platforms;

and when the identification information of the vehicle exists in the blacklist of the charging information platform, prompting the vehicle to exit the charging field or sending alarm information.

Exemplarily; the blacklist of the charging information platform can be an identification information set corresponding to the identification information, wherein the unpaid charging fee exceeds a preset amount, or an identification information set corresponding to the identification information, wherein the identification information set is used for damaging facilities and charging piles in a charging field after a vehicle is charged, or an identification information set corresponding to the identification information, wherein the vehicle is a scrapped vehicle; when the blacklist of the charging information platform is an identification information set of which the unpaid charging cost exceeds a preset arrearage amount, the identification information on the blacklist can be eliminated in a subsidy mode; when the blacklist of the charging information platform is an identification information set, corresponding to the identification information, of damaged facilities and charging piles in the charging field after the vehicle is charged, the identification information on the blacklist can be eliminated in a compensation mode; when the blacklist of the charging information platform is an identification information set of which the vehicle corresponding to the identification information is a scrapped vehicle, the identification information on the blacklist can be eliminated through the scrapped identification information acquired in real time.

In specific implementation, after identification information of a vehicle is acquired, the identification information of the vehicle is searched in a blacklist of a charging information platform according to the identification information, if the identification information of the vehicle is searched in the blacklist of the charging information platform, the identification information of the vehicle is shown to be present in the blacklist of the charging information platform, the vehicle cannot be charged according to the identification information, the vehicle is prompted to exit a charging field or alarm information is sent, if the vehicle needs to be charged, the identification information of the vehicle needs to be eliminated from the charging information platform firstly, and the vehicle is charged according to the identification information; and if the identification information of the vehicle is not found in the blacklist of the charging information platform, triggering and controlling the charging pile to charge the vehicle.

In a specific embodiment, the alarm notification may be sent to an alarm device to notify the alarm device to perform an alarm prompt, where the alarm device may be, for example, a speaker, a loudspeaker, a display screen, and the alarm prompt may be in the form of voice, text, and the like, and is not limited herein.

Further, before the payment of the charging fee by using the payment account, the method further includes:

acquiring a second identification image of the vehicle according to a camera in the charging station;

identifying the second identification image to obtain third identification information;

determining whether the first identification information and the third identification information are consistent;

and when the first identification information is consistent with the third identification information, triggering the step of paying the charging fee by using the payment account.

Exemplarily; the second identification image may be an image which is shot by a camera in the charging station after the vehicle is charged and contains identification information of the vehicle, and the third identification information may be identification information which is recognized by the second identification image of the vehicle at a preset position and is collected in real time by the information collection device.

In a specific example, comparing the first identification information with the third identification information to determine whether the first identification information is consistent with the third identification information, if so, indicating that the identification information stored in the vehicle-mounted unit is consistent with the identification information of the vehicle at the shooting position of the camera in the charging station, and triggering a payment account to pay the charging fee of the vehicle according to the identification information, wherein the charging pile charging vehicle is a vehicle corresponding to the identification information stored in the vehicle-mounted unit; if the first identification information is inconsistent with the third identification information, it is indicated that the charging pile charging vehicle is not a vehicle corresponding to the identification information stored in the vehicle-mounted unit, the payment account cannot be triggered to pay the charging fee of the vehicle according to the identification information, and the charging fee of the vehicle for charging at this time needs to be paid according to other payment methods.

Further, after the acquiring the payment account bound by the On Board Unit (OBU) of the vehicle, the method further includes:

determining a type of the payment account;

when the type of the payment account is a savings type, determining whether the balance of the payment account is greater than a preset savings amount;

and when the balance of the payment account is larger than the preset savings amount, triggering and controlling a charging pile to charge the vehicle.

For example, the type of the payment account may be a payment account payment property type, and the type of the payment account may be a savings type or a credit type; when the payment account is of a savings type, the account cannot overdraw the amount, and consumption cost is directly drawn from the payment account after consumption is finished, and the amount of money needs to be stored in the payment account in advance; when the payment account is credit type, the overdraft limit can be obtained according to the asset credit of the registered user of the payment account, and the consumption cost can be drawn from the overdraft limit of the payment account after the consumption is finished. And determining the minimum balance of the savings type payment account as a preset savings amount according to actual requirements and experimental data, and when the balance of the savings type payment account is smaller than the preset savings amount, not using the payment account bound by the On Board Unit (OBU) to pay the charging fee of the vehicle.

In a specific example, after a payment account bound by an on-board unit (OBU) of a vehicle is acquired, when the type of the payment account is determined to be a savings type, whether the balance of the payment account is larger than a preset storage amount or not is determined, if the balance of the payment account is larger than the preset storage amount, the payment account bound by the on-board unit (OBU) of the vehicle can be used for paying the charging cost of the vehicle at this time, and a charging information platform is triggered to control a charging pile to charge the vehicle; if the balance of the payment account is smaller than or equal to the preset storage amount, the payment account bound by the OBU cannot be used for paying the charging fee of the vehicle, the charging information platform cannot be triggered to control the charging pile to charge the vehicle, and the phenomenon that the accumulated amount of the arrearage amount is huge is avoided.

Step 240, controlling a charging pile to charge the vehicle, and recording the charging cost of the vehicle according to the identification information after the charging is finished;

and step 250, paying the charging fee by using the payment account.

According to the embodiment of the invention, the identification information of the vehicle and the payment account bound by the OBU of the vehicle can be obtained; controlling a charging pile to charge the vehicle, and recording the charging cost of the vehicle according to the identification information after the charging is finished; and paying the charging fee by using the payment account. The embodiment of the invention provides a solution for the non-contact charging fee payment of the vehicle provided with the vehicle-mounted unit OBU, the charging fee of the vehicle can be recorded according to the identification information of the vehicle, and an efficient and quick charging payment mode is provided for a user by utilizing the charging fee of the vehicle which is subjected to the non-contact payment of the payment account bound by the vehicle-mounted unit OBU, so that the operation of the user for paying the charging fee is simplified, the charging time of the vehicle is shortened, the operation efficiency of a charging field is improved, and convenience is provided for the user who cannot perform APP registration operation.

In these cases, each drive may be connected to bus 18 by one or more data media interfaces. Memory 28 may include at least one program product having a set (e.g., at least one) of program modules that are configured to carry out the functions of embodiments of the invention.

A program/utility 40 having a set (at least one) of program modules 42 may be stored, for example, in memory 28, such program modules 42 including, but not limited to, an operating system, one or more application programs, other program modules, and program data, each of which examples or some combination thereof may comprise an implementation of a network environment. Program modules 42 generally carry out the functions and/or methodologies of the described embodiments of the invention.

Electronic device 12 may also communicate with one or more external devices 14 (e.g., keyboard, pointing device, display 24, etc.), with one or more devices that enable a user to interact with electronic device 12, and/or with any devices (e.g., network card, modem, etc.) that enable electronic device 12 to communicate with one or more other computing devices. Such communication may be through an input/output (I/O) interface 22. Also, the electronic device 12 may communicate with one or more networks (e.g., a Local Area Network (LAN), a Wide Area Network (WAN), and/or a public network, such as the Internet) via the network adapter 20. As shown, the network adapter 20 communicates with other modules of the electronic device 12 via the bus 18. It should be appreciated that although not shown in FIG. 4, other hardware and/or software modules may be used in conjunction with electronic device 12, including but not limited to: microcode, device drivers, redundant processing units, external disk drive arrays, RAID systems, tape drives, and data backup storage systems, among others.

The processing unit 16 executes various functional applications and data processing by executing programs stored in the system memory 28, for example, implementing a charging method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the method including:

acquiring identification information of a vehicle and a payment account bound by an OBU of the vehicle;

controlling a charging pile to charge the vehicle, and recording the charging cost of the vehicle according to the identification information after the charging is finished;

and paying the charging fee by using the payment account.

An embodiment of the present invention further provides a computer-readable storage medium, on which a computer program is stored, where the computer program, when executed by a processor, implements the charging method, and the method includes:

acquiring identification information of a vehicle and a payment account bound by an OBU of the vehicle;
