SERVER APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND OPERATING METHOD OF SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18457649 titled 'SERVER APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND OPERATING METHOD OF SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application abstract describes a server apparatus that stores information about the travel history of a vehicle running on a fuel cell and its state of deterioration. The controller of the server receives information about the travel history of another vehicle running on a fuel cell and provides a notification about the fuel cell based on this information.

  • The server apparatus includes a communication interface, memory, and controller.
  • The memory stores correspondence information linking a vehicle's travel history with the state of deterioration of its fuel cell.
  • The controller receives information on the travel history of another vehicle running on a fuel cell and outputs a notification about the fuel cell based on this information and the stored correspondence information.
      1. Potential Applications
  • Fleet management systems for vehicles running on fuel cells.
  • Predictive maintenance for fuel cell-powered vehicles.
      1. Problems Solved
  • Lack of real-time monitoring of fuel cell deterioration.
  • Inefficient maintenance scheduling for fuel cell-powered vehicles.
      1. Benefits
  • Improved fuel cell maintenance efficiency.
  • Increased lifespan of fuel cell-powered vehicles.
  • Cost savings on maintenance and repairs.


Original Abstract Submitted

A server apparatus includes a communication interface, a memory, and a controller. The memory stores correspondence information associating a travel history of a first vehicle configured to run on a fuel cell as a power source with a state of deterioration of the fuel cell. The controller receives, via the communication interface, information on a travel history from a second vehicle configured to run on a fuel cell as a power source, and outputs a notification about the fuel cell of the second vehicle based on the information on the travel history and the correspondence information.
