CHARGE CONTROL DEVICE
First Claim
1. A charge control device that is mounted in an electric vehicle including a travel battery, which supplies an electric power to a travel driving source, and a battery charger, which executes charging operation for charging the travel battery by using a power supply, the charge control device comprising:
- a communication unit that receives a first instruction for setting a charging wait period, which is a period for waiting the charging operation by the battery charger, and a second instruction for setting a charging period, which is a period for executing the charging operation, the first instruction and the second instruction being transmitted from a mobile device;
a first timing unit that starts first timing operation for calculating a remaining charging wait period, which is a remaining period of the charging wait period, by subtracting an elapsed period from the charging wait period;
a charging start unit that allows the battery charger to start the charging operation when the remaining charging wait period becomes zero;
a second timing unit that starts second timing operation, together with start of the charging operation, for calculating a remaining charging period, which is a remaining period of the charging period, by subtracting an elapsed period from the charging period; and
a charging stop unit that allows the battery charger to stop the charging operation when the remaining charging period becomes zero.
