Connection module for connecting a charging device with an electric vehicle, vehicle with the connection module and method for charging the vehicle using the connection module

摘要

Electric vehicles must be charged next to the self-supply by generators to power the batteries at charging stations. In many cases, the charging stations have cables with suitable plugs, which can be plugged directly into the electric vehicle. However, there are no conclusive, uniform regulations, in particular to use the same sockets / plugs across countries. In order to be able to travel cross-border with the electric vehicle, it is therefore necessary that appropriate adapters are carried. Such adapters are now being offered commercially. A connection module 3 for connecting a charging device 4 to an electric vehicle 1 is proposed, having a vehicle interface 8 for connection to the vehicle 1, with a charging interface 9 for connection to the charging device 4, with a control device 12 for controlling the connection module 3, and with an energy store 11 and an energy management device 13, wherein the control device 12 is designed to control the energy management device 13 in such a way that a recharging process for the vehicle 1 using the energy store 11 is performed via the charge interface 9.
