First Claim
Patent Images
1. A charging control device, comprising:
- a current detecting means that is configured to detect current supplied to a vehicle individually via one or a plurality of charging paths;
a determining means that is configured to determine individually whether the charging path and the vehicle are in a connected state or non-connected state based on a current value detected by the current detecting means; and
a control means that is configured to control opening/closing of the charging path individually according to a determination result by the determining means.

Abstract
In a charging control device, a determining unit individually determines whether a charging path and a vehicle are in a connected state or non-connected state based on a current value detected by a current detecting means. The state of connection with the vehicle is detected not by an exclusive sensor as it is done in the prior art but by using a current detection result by the current detecting means. Hence the cost for detecting the state of connection with the vehicle can be reduced.
