VEHICLE MANAGEMENT METHOD AND SERVER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240212036 titled 'VEHICLE MANAGEMENT METHOD AND SERVER
A vehicle management method for managing a power storage device included in a vehicle involves determining fees based on the degradation of the power storage device over evaluation periods using different methods.
- Determine a first fee based on the degradation of the power storage device evaluated in an evaluation period using a first method.
- Determine a second fee based on the degradation of the power storage device evaluated in the evaluation period using a second method with higher accuracy.
- If the second fee is lower than the first fee, set it as a lease fee for a lease period.
- If the second degree of degradation is not obtained before the evaluation period, set the first fee as a lease fee for the lease period.
Potential Applications: - Fleet management systems - Electric vehicle battery management - Energy storage systems
Problems Solved: - Efficient management of power storage devices in vehicles - Accurate assessment of degradation levels - Cost-effective lease fee determination
Benefits: - Cost savings for vehicle owners - Improved maintenance scheduling - Enhanced performance of power storage devices
Commercial Applications: Title: Vehicle Fleet Management System with Advanced Battery Monitoring This technology can be utilized by companies with large vehicle fleets to optimize the management of power storage devices and reduce operational costs.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve the efficiency of managing power storage devices in vehicles? - This method allows for accurate assessment of degradation levels, leading to cost-effective lease fee determinations.
2. What are the potential cost savings for vehicle owners using this technology? - Vehicle owners can save money by accurately determining lease fees based on the degradation levels of power storage devices.
Original Abstract Submitted
a vehicle management method for managing a power storage device included in a vehicle includes: determining a first fee commensurate with a first degree of degradation of the power storage device evaluated in an evaluation period by a first method; determining a second fee commensurate with a second degree of evaluation, when obtaining the second degree of degradation of the power storage device evaluated in the evaluation period by a second method with a higher measurement accuracy than the first method; determining the second fee as a lease fee for a lease period, when the second fee is lower than the first fee; and determining the first fee as a lease fee for the lease period, when the second degree of degradation evaluated in and before the evaluation period is not obtained.
