Refueling facility, refueling device, and refueling method
First Claim
1. A refueling device for a moving object, the moving object having a fuel tank for storing fuel, a first battery for supplying power to a motor for generating a driving force of the moving object, a power consuming device which operates when the fuel tank is refueled, a second battery for supplying power to the power consuming device, and a power converter which is provided between the first battery and the second battery, the refueling device comprising:
- a refueling connector for refueling the fuel tank from an outside facility;
a power supply connector for supplying power to at least the first battery from the outside facility; and
control means for controlling the power supply from the outside facility to the fuel tank and the power supply from the first battery to the second battery via the power converter,wherein the control means is programmed to be capable of performing the refueling of the fuel tank simultaneously with the power supply to the first battery and the power supply from the first battery to the second battery via the power converter.

Abstract
A refueling facility (200) according to the present invention comprises a refueling source (210) for refueling a fuel cell vehicle with fuel, a power supply source (220) for supplying power to the fuel cell vehicle, and a controller (230) for controlling refueling and power supply from the refueling facility (200) to the fuel cell vehicle. The forward end of a refueling path (211) and that of a power supply path (221) are integrated into a supply connector (240). The refueling and the power supply are achieved by connecting the supply connector (240) to a fuel receptacle (110) of the fuel cell vehicle.
