US 2022/0029183 A1 · POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM OF FUEL CELL USING USER AUTHENTICATION AND METHOD THEREOF

Abstract

A power supply system of a fuel cell using user authentication includes: a tagging device that receives user information of a user terminal; an identity authentication unit, which compares the user information inputted through the tagging device with previously stored authentication information and outputs a use authority signal when the user information matches the authentication information; a power module complete that produces electric power by a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen; a battery that receives and is charged with electric power produced by the power module complete; an output terminal that is connected to the battery to output electric power stored in the battery; and an integrated body control unit that controls electric power to be outputted through the output terminal when the identity authentication unit outputs the use authority signal.

Dependent claims

A power supply system of a fuel cell using user authentication, the power supply system comprising:

a tagging device configured to receive user information of a user terminal;
an identity authentication unit configured to compare the user information inputted through the tagging device with previously stored authentication information, and output a use authority signal when the user information matches the authentication information;
a power module complete configured to produce electric power by a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen;
a battery configured to receive and be charged with electric power produced by the power module complete;
an output terminal connected to the battery to output electric power stored in the battery;
and
an integrated body control unit configured to control electric power to be outputted through the output terminal when the identity authentication unit outputs the use authority signal.

4 more elements

A method of controlling a power supply system of a fuel cell using user authentication, the power supply method comprising:

receiving, by an integrated body control unit of the power supply system, a power providing request from a vehicle requiring electric power;
receiving, by a tagging device of the power supply system, user information of a user terminal;
comparing, by an identity authentication unit, the user information inputted through the tagging device with previously stored authentication information;
upon determining that the user information inputted through the tagging device matches the previously stored authentication information, outputting a use authority signal;
and
in response to receiving the use authority signal from the identity authentication unit, outputting electric power stored in a battery through an output terminal, which is connected to the battery charged with electric power produced by a power module complete, to the vehicle requiring electric power.
