Antitheft system of charger for electric vehicle
First Claim
1. An antitheft system of a charger for an electric vehicle that performs charge by coupling a charger connected to an exterior power source to a connector provided at the electric vehicle, comprising:
- a first signal generating portion provided at the charger, the first signal generating portion configured to receive a decoupling will of the charger, and generate a decoupling signal;
a second signal generating portion configured to generate a position signal, so that anyone who is allowed to handle the electric vehicle possess the second signal generating portion;
a control portion configured to generate an operating signal when both the decoupling signal of the first signal generating portion and the position signal of the second signal generating portion are received from by the control portion; and
an actuator decoupling the charger from the connector in response to receiving the operating signal from the control portion.

Abstract
An antitheft system of a charger for an electric vehicle that prevents theft of a charger during charging a battery of the electric vehicle is disclosed.
More specifically, a first signal generating portion is provided at the charger, receives a decoupling will of the charger, and generates a decoupling signal. A second signal generating portion generates a position signal, so that anyone who is allowed to handle the electric vehicle possesses the second signal generating portion. A control portion generates an operating signal when both the decoupling signal of the first signal generating portion and the position signal of the second signal generating portion are received by the control portion. Once received, an actuator decouples the charger from the connector once the operating signal from the control portion is received.

10. A method for preventing theft of a charger for an electric vehicle, comprising:
-
receiving, by a first signal generating portion provided at the charger, a decoupling will of the charger; in response to receiving the decoupling will, generating, by the first signal generating portion, a decoupling signal; generating, by a second signal generating portion, a position signal, so that anyone who is allowed to handle the electric vehicle possess the second signal generating portion; in response to both the decoupling signal of the first signal generating portion and the position signal of the second signal generating portion being received from by a control portion, generating an operating signal; and in response to receiving the operating signal from the control portion, decoupling the charger from the connector by an actuator. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
