MOBILITY CHARGING DEVICE AND CHARGING METHOD USING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240136843 titled 'MOBILITY CHARGING DEVICE AND CHARGING METHOD USING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a mobility charging device that can measure the voltage of a battery in a mobility device, determine the charging mode based on the battery voltage, and provide the appropriate charging voltage to the mobility device.

  • Measurement unit measures battery voltage
  • Determination unit decides charging mode based on battery voltage
  • Charging unit sets cut-off voltages for different charging modes and provides corresponding charging voltage to the mobility device

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in electric scooters, wheelchairs, and other mobility devices that require efficient and safe charging systems.

Problems Solved

1. Ensures optimal charging of the battery in mobility devices 2. Prevents overcharging or undercharging, which can damage the battery

Benefits

1. Prolongs battery life 2. Improves safety during charging process 3. Enhances overall performance of the mobility device

Potential Commercial Applications

"Smart Charging Technology for Mobility Devices: Enhancing Battery Life and Performance"

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be traditional charging systems for mobility devices that do not have the capability to adjust charging modes based on battery voltage.

Unanswered Questions

How does the device communicate with the mobility device to adjust the charging voltage?

The abstract does not provide details on the communication protocol or interface used to adjust the charging voltage based on the determined charging mode.

Are there any safety features incorporated into the device to prevent overheating or short circuits?

The abstract does not mention any specific safety features that may be included in the device to ensure safe charging of the battery in the mobility device.


Original Abstract Submitted

a mobility charging device comprises a measurement unit configured to measure a voltage of a battery of a mobility device when the mobility device is electrically connected to an input/output interface, a determination unit configured to receive the voltage of the battery from the measurement unit, and determine a charging mode among a plurality of charging modes according to the voltage of the battery, and a charging unit configured to differently set cut-off voltages correspondingly to the plurality of charging modes, and provide charging voltage corresponding to a cut-off voltage set correspondingly to the charging mode to the mobility device through the input/output interface.
