Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A charging system for charging a battery of an automatic conveyance vehicle configured to automatically convey an article includes a temperature acquisition section configured to acquire a temperature when charging the battery, and a control section configured to control power supply of the automatic conveyance vehicle when charging the battery based on the temperature acquired by the temperature acquisition section.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A charging system for charging a battery of an automatic conveyance vehicle configured to automatically convey an article, the system comprising: a temperature acquisition section configured to acquire a temperature when charging the battery; and a control section configured to control power supply of the automatic conveyance vehicle when charging the battery based on the temperature acquired by the temperature acquisition section. 2 . The charging system according to claim 1 , wherein when the charging of the battery is started, the control section charges the battery in a power-on state without shutting down the automatic conveyance vehicle in a case where the temperature is equal to or lower than a predetermined temperature corresponding to a lower limit of an operating temperature range of the automatic conveyance vehicle, and shuts down the automatic conveyance vehicle in a case where the temperature is higher than the predetermined temperature to charge the battery in a power-off state. 3 . The charging system according to claim 2 , wherein the control section activates the automatic conveyance vehicle in a case where the temperature becomes equal to or lower than the predetermined temperature during charging the battery with the automatic conveyance vehicle in the power-off state, and shuts down the automatic conveyance vehicle in a case where the temperature becomes higher than the predetermined temperature during charging the battery with the automatic conveyance vehicle in the power-on state. 4 . A charging system for charging a battery of an automatic conveyance vehicle configured to automatically convey an article, the system comprising: a temperature acquisition section configured to acquire a temperature when charging the battery; and a control section configured to control power supply of the automatic conveyance vehicle such that the temperature acquired by the temperature acquisition section does not become equal to or lower than a lower limit of an operating temperature range of the automatic conveyance vehicle. 5 . A charging control method of charging a battery of an automatic conveyance vehicle configured to automatically convey an article, the method comprising: (a) a step of acquiring a temperature when charging the battery; and (b) a step of controlling power supply of the automatic conveyance vehicle when charging the battery based on the temperature acquired in the step of (a).
