Electric charging system and electric charger
First Claim
1. An electric charging system in which an electric charger and an electric vehicle are connected by a charging cable, and an electric storage device installed on the electric vehicle is charged, the electric charging system comprising:
- a first reference setting unit for setting a reference point for supplied voltage data calculated by subjecting a supplied voltage at the electric charger side to predetermined filter processing, the reference point being set on the basis of a variation rate of the supplied voltage data;
a second reference setting unit for setting a reference point for received voltage data calculated by subjecting a received voltage at the electric vehicle side to predetermined filter processing, the reference point being set on the basis of a variation rate of the received voltage data;
a data synchronization unit for synchronizing the supplied voltage data and the received voltage data on the basis of the reference points of the supplied voltage data and the received voltage data;
a voltage difference calculation unit for comparing the synchronized supplied voltage data and received voltage data and calculates a voltage difference between the supplied voltage and the received voltage;
a resistance calculation unit for calculating a power supply resistance of the charging cable on the basis of the voltage difference between the supplied voltage and the received voltage;
a drop amount calculation unit for calculating a voltage drop amount in the charging cable on the basis of the power supply resistance of the charging cable and a supplied current on the electric charger side or a received current on the electric vehicle side; and
a charging determination unit for comparing a determination voltage updated on the basis of the voltage drop amount with the supplied voltage on the electric charger side and determines a state of charge of the electric storage device.

Abstract
There is provided an electric charging system in which an electric charger and an electric vehicle are connected by a charging cable. The electric charger calculates a voltage drop amount in the charging cable on the basis of a supplied current at the electric charger side and an electric resistance of the charging cable. The electric charger also compares a determination voltage with a supplied voltage at the electric charger side and determines that a battery has been charged to a fully charged state when the supplied voltage reaches the determination voltage. The determination voltage used for such full charge determination is updated by adding the voltage drop amount to a basic determination voltage that is set in advance.
