This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18308168 titled 'POWER SUPPLY CONTROL DEVICE, METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a power supply control device for a vehicle that controls the power supply from a battery to a load.

  • The device includes processors that gather information about the vehicle and the charge amount of the battery.
  • It identifies the usage state of the vehicle based on the acquired information.
  • If the charge amount of the battery is below a certain threshold, the device restricts the power supply from the battery to the load.
  • The purpose of this control is to manage the power supply efficiently and prevent the battery from being drained completely.


Original Abstract Submitted

A power supply control device configured to control power supply from a battery to a load in a vehicle, the power supply control device includes one or more processors configured to: acquire information of the vehicle; acquire a charge amount of the battery; identify a usage state of the vehicle corresponding to the acquired information of the vehicle; and restrict the power supply from the battery to the load based on the identified usage state of the vehicle, when the acquired charge amount of the battery is less than a first threshold.
