Title:
METHOD FOR CHARGING A BATTERY OF A MOTOR VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/110261
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
It should be convenient for the driver of a motor vehicle to end the process of charging the battery (14) of a motor vehicle (100) having an electric drive (10). For this purpose, during charging the motor vehicle continuously or repeatedly detects whether a predetermined object is located in the vicinity of the motor vehicle, and if this is the case, the charging process is ended and latching which is present in this case is lifted. In particular a "keyless entry" function, which exists anyhow in the motor vehicle, can be used; the predetermined object is then an element having a transponder which is recognised by the motor vehicle as soon as the driver of the motor vehicle carrying said element comes close to the motor vehicle.
