POWER FEEDING PLUG LOCKING DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power feeding plug locking device for improving the durability of components.

SOLUTION: The power feeding plug locking device 40 prevents a power feeding plug 10 connected to an inlet 5 from being pulled out from the inlet 5 by setting a locking mechanism 41 in a locked state to fix the power feeding plug 10 to the inlet 5, and by setting the locking mechanism 41 in an unlocked state to make the power feeding plug 10 removable from the inlet 5. The power feeding plug locking device 40 includes: an unlocking switch 31 which is operated when switching the operational state of the locking mechanism 41; a door lock state acquisition part 77a which checks whether the door lock of a vehicle 1 in which the inlet 5 is mounted is locked or unlocked; and a locking mechanism control part 77b which controls the operation of the locking mechanism 41 on the basis of the operation of the unlocking switch 31 in addition to whether the door lock is locked or unlocked.
