<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate troublesomeness in charging operation by automating battery charge of an electric automobile. <P>SOLUTION: When a vehicle is parked at the regular position in a parking space for charging and authenticated, chargeability, estimated travelable distance, charging schedule, and the like, are operated (S25). If the vehicle is chargeable, estimated travelable distance, residual capacity of battery, and charging end time are notified to a user (S27). When charging start is designated and the time elapsing before designation of charging start is shorter than a threshold value, charging is started by transmitting a charging start signal to a charging station (S29). When charging end or charging stop is designated subsequently, estimation values of travelable distance after charging, residual capacity of battery, and the like, are operated and notified to the user (S31, S32), and a charging stop signal is transmitted to the charging station (S33). Consequently, charging or charging opportunity is prevented from being missed by eliminating troublesomeness in charging operation, and an electric automobile is kept in comfortable use conditions at all times. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
