- step 608 the user can select whether to continue the lease. If the lease is continued, the flow returns to step 601 and the above steps are repeated. If the lease ends, at step 609, the user returns the battery, pays the fee, and ends the lease.
- steps 603-604 may be further included, the user may select whether to continue the lease after using the battery, and may proceed to step 604 at any time when the user does not need to continue to rent, paying the fee and returning the battery to the end. lease.
- the post-paid mode differs from the pre-paid mode in that it sets the settlement date and settles on the settlement date, while the pre-paid mode requires an advance payment of no less than a certain amount. Both modes can be calculated by counting the number of days the user uses, or the amount of power used by the user and the number of times of charging. The user can select different charging modes according to their own needs and from the perspective of their own cost saving.

下面参考图 3-6具体说明本发明的租赁充电电池并对其控制地供电的 方法。
图 3示出了本发明的充电电池的租赁方法的概图。 在开始租赁之后, 在步骤 301, 设置充电电池的使用模式, 该步骤在根据本发明的充电电池 的模式设定装置 206上进行。 在本发明中, 所述模式可以设置为预付费模 式 302或后付费模式 303,这两种模式将在下文参考图 4-6详细说明,当然, 本发明也可以包括其他适用于其他应用场合的模式。
图 4示出了根据本发明的预付费模式的¾½图。 当在将充电电池的使 用模式设定为预付费模式之后, 在步骤 401 , 用户对其账户进行充值, 同 时对所述租赁的充电电池解锁以提供给用户进行使用。 在步骤 402, 用户 可以对已解锁的电池进行使用, 这里的使用是指使用电池中的电量为车辆 供电。 在步骤 405, 在用户将进行充电时, 启动充电, 这里的启动例如是 将车辆的充电插座插到电源上。 在步骤 406, 在启动充电之后, 首先确定 用户的账户余额是否大于锁定值, 这里用户的账户余额可从充电电池直接 获得或者通过充电电池与租赁系统的远程通信即时获得„ 当确定账户余额 大于锁定值的情况下(即步骤 406为 "是" ) , 在步骤 409, 进行对电池 的充电, 并且在充电之后, 在步骤 410, 对用户的账户进行扣款, 该扣款 可以是离线或在线的扣款。 在离线的情况下, 将账户信息记录在充电电池 上, 在在线的情况下, 通过充电电池上的通信装置 207与租赁系统 212直 接通信扣除用户的账户金额。 在对用户的账户扣款之后, 该流程又回到步 骤 402, 用户可以继续使用电池并重复上述步骤。 当确定账户余额小于等 于锁定值的情况下(即步骤 406为 "否" ) , 在步骤 411通过所述电池的 锁定装置 208锁定所述电池, 从而使得不能继续对电池的充电, 在该情况 下,用户在步骤 412可以选择对账户充值以继续使用电池,即回到步骤 401, 或者, 用户也可以进到步骤 413, 归还电池、 结算费用并结束租货。
这里, "锁定值" 可以由租赁系统根据相应的条件设置, 例如将锁定
值设定为电池押金, 该电池押金用于确保用户归还所述电池。
另外,在该流程中还可以包括图中如 403和 407所示的两个可选步骤。 在步骤 403,用户可以选择继续租赁从而进入步骤 405,或者也可以选择归 还电池、 结算费用并结束租赁, 即进入步骤 404。 在步骤 407, 可以设定一 个通知步骤, 即, 当判断用户余额小于通知值时, 在步骤 408, 对用户和 系统进行通知, 从而及时提醒用户账户情况, 并在需要时进行充值。
这里, "通知值" 同样由租货系统设定, 其例如可以为略大于 "锁定 值" 的值。
图 5示出了根据本发明的备用模式的流程图。 备用模式是预付费模式 中的一种, 在该模式中, 将车辆自带电池用作主电池, 将租赁的充电电池 用作辅电池。 在图 5的备用模式中, 除了以步骤 501-503替换图 4中的步 骤 402之外, 其他步骤都与图 4中相同, 在此省略对其的具体描述。 在步 骤 501, 判断主电池电量是否大于设定值, 当大于时, 即步骤 501为是, 在步骤 502, 仅使用主动力电池供电, 当小于时, 即步骤 501为否, 在步 骤 503, 使用所述辅电池以进行混合供电。
备用模式主要用于电动汽车普及率较低的时期或地区, 此时供应商租 赁网点和用户都很少, 如果采用普通的租赁方式, 用户需要时往往找不到 网点, 而网点的电池则租不出去, 效益 4艮差。
为了解决这一矛盾, 本发明提出了备用模式租赁, 在该模式中, 供应 商将电池租赁给用户长期使用; 电池和供电系统控制车辆优先使用自带电 池, 只有在自带电池荷电量下降到一定程度时才使用租赁的电池。 原则上 按照实际使用收费 ,根据辅电池每次充电或放电深度按照累进费率方式和 / 或基本费方式计算费用。 其中累进费率类似于所得税的累进税率制度, 根 据每次充放电深度不同设置不同的费率, 可以 ^额累进或者全额累进。 用户总费用为累进费用, 也可以加上按时间计算的很低的基本费用, 这样 当用户没有实际使用时不收费或者按照时间收 艮低的^ ^费。
例如, 在所述备用模式下, 当辅电池每次充电或放电深度为其总电量 的 80%以上时按标准费率收费, 40-80%时费率为半价, 20-40%时费率为
1/4价, 低于 20%时免费, 此外每日基本收费仅为一次 50%放电费用的
10%。
这种方式实质上相当于为用户提供了一个费用很低的流动供电站, 有 如下好处: 解决了用户的应急需求, 只要随车携带所述租赁的电池, 就可 以随时随地得到供电; 没有给用户增加太多费用, 用户只要尽量减少租赁 电池的实际使用, 就可以使租赁费用降得很低; 供应商可以少建网点, 免 除相应的运营费用, 但提供给用户的服务却比网点租赁更好; 当电动汽车 数量增加后, 供应商可以增建租赁网点, 将流动租赁的电池收回改成定点 租赁, 就可以转变为普通租赁方式。
图 6示出了根据本发明的后付费模式供电的¾½图。 当将充电电池的 使用模式设置为后付费模式之后, 在步骤 601 , 设定用户结算日, 对所述 租赁的充电电池解锁以提供给用户进行使用。 在步骤 602, 用户可对电池 进行使用, 这里的 "使用" 包括对电池进行放电或充电。 在步骤 605, 在 结算日判断用户是否已进行结算并交费。 在用户已交费的情况下, 即步骤
605为是, 流程回到步骤 602, 即, 用户可继续使用该充电电池。 在用户未 交费的情况下, 即步骤 605为否, 流程进到步骤 606, 通过充电电池的锁 定装置 208对电池进行锁定, 使得该电池既不能放电也不能充电。 在步骤 607, 用户在电池锁定之后, 去往租赁系统进行交费。 在步骤 608, 用户可 以选择是否继续租赁,如果继续租赁, 流程回到步骤 601并重复上述步骤, 如果结束租赁, 在步骤 609, 用户归还电池、 交纳费用并结束租赁。
此外, 在图 6所示的流程中,还可以包括步骤 603-604, 用户在使用电 池之后可以选择是否继续租赁, 当用户不需要继续租赁时可随时进入步骤 604, 进行交费并归还电池结束租赁。
后付费模式不同于预付费模式之处在于, 其通过设定结算日并在结算 日进行结算, 而预付费模式则需要预先支付不低于某一数额的费用。 这两 种模式都可以通过计算用户的使用天数进行计费, 也可以计算用户具体使 用的电量以及充电次数等, 用户可以根据自己的需要以及从自身的节省成 本的角度选择不同的收费模式。
虽然在以上详细描述中给出了至少一个示例性实施例, 但应理解, 存 在大量变型例。 还应理解, 一个或多个示例性实施例仅仅是实例, 其决不 旨在限制所述实施例的范围、 适用性或配置。 应理解, 在不脱离在所附权 利要求中所阐述的范围及其等同物的情况下, 可在功能上和要素的设置上 进行各种改变。
