CHARGING APPARATUS AND VEHICLE
First Claim
1. A charging apparatus that charges a first vehicle including first identification information and a second vehicle including second identification information, the charging apparatus comprising:
- a first communication line that is connected to the first vehicle;
a second communication line that is connected to the second vehicle;
a voltage detection section that detects a first voltage pattern corresponding to the first identification information via the first communication line and that detects a second voltage pattern corresponding to the second identification information via the second communication line; and
a communication section that communicates with the first vehicle using the first identification information and that communicates with the second vehicle using the second identification information.

Abstract
Disclosed is a charging apparatus whereby charging can be suitably performed even in the cases where a plurality of electric vehicles are connected to a charging station. The charging apparatus has: a charging cable (4), which is configured of a power supply line (6) that charges an electric vehicle (2) and a pilot line (8) that detects connection of the electric vehicle (2); a power supply unit (10), which supplies power to the charging cable (4); a voltage detecting unit (11), which detects, via a pilot line (8), a voltage pattern that corresponds to identifying information of the electric vehicle (2); and a power line communication unit (12), which performs, with the electric vehicle (2), data communication in the state wherein the identifying information of the electric vehicle (2) is added, said identifying information having been acquired by means of the voltage detecting unit (11).
