The vehicle connected to a building according to the present invention may include: a door 110 that, when connected to a doorway 310 of a building 300 in an opened state, allows an indoor space of the vehicle 100 and an indoor space of the building 300 to be connected to each other as one space; a vehicle energy storage unit 120 for supplying driving energy to the vehicle; a vehicle power connection part 130 electrically connected to the power supply part 320 of the building so that the building and the vehicle power storage part 120 exchange power with each other; a data connection part 140 connected to the communication part 340 of the building to transmit and receive data with the building; and a vehicle control part 150 controlling the door 110 according to an access level with the building to perform one or more of a connection mode in which connection with an entrance of the building is performed, an energy mode in which energy is exchanged between the building and the vehicle energy storage part 120 through the vehicle energy connection part 130, and a data mode in which data is transmitted and received between the building and the data connection part 140.

The vehicle control portion 150 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may be implemented by a nonvolatile memory (not shown) configured to store an algorithm for controlling operations of various components of the vehicle or data related to a software command reproducing the algorithm, and a processor (not shown) configured to perform the operations explained below using the data stored in the memory. Wherein the memory and the processor may also be implemented by separate chips. Alternatively, the memory and the processor may also be implemented by a single chip integrated with each other, and the processor may also take the form of more than one processor.

As shown in fig. 1, the vehicle of the present invention may be physically connected with a building to share respective spaces with each other. According to the concept of the present invention, a concept of expanding an indoor space of a vehicle into a building, particularly a residential space, to form an additional room is proposed.

In addition, in the case where the vehicle is an electric vehicle, power can be shared with the building, and therefore, when the vehicle is parked in its own house, there is an advantage in that charging of the vehicle can be performed while expanding the space. Further, control of a vehicle or a building such as air conditioning or indoor lighting or audio can be uniformly managed, and charging while parking another vehicle in its own house can be allowed, so that it can be a platform providing a new personal business model.

Specifically, in order to configure such a platform, the vehicle of the present invention includes a door 110, a vehicle energy storage portion 120, a vehicle energy connection portion 130, a data connection portion 140, and a vehicle control portion 150. When the door 110 is connected to the doorway 310 of the building in a state where the door 110 is opened, the indoor space of the vehicle and the indoor space of the building are connected to each other as one space. The door 110 may be disposed in various manners such as a sliding manner or a gull-wing door manner, and is not limited as long as an indoor space of the vehicle can be connected to the doorway 310 of the building.

Also, the vehicle includes a vehicle energy storage portion 120 for supplying driving energy of the vehicle. In the case where the vehicle is an electric vehicle, the vehicle energy storage portion 120 may be a high-voltage battery, and in the case where the vehicle is a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, the vehicle energy storage portion 120 may be a hydrogen tank or the like. That is, the vehicle energy storage portion 120 may be a high-voltage battery module mounted in the vehicle.

In addition, an energy supply part 320 for supplying electricity, hydrogen, or the like is also provided in the building, but the vehicle energy connection part 130 of the vehicle may be electrically connected to the energy supply part 320 of the building to perform a role of exchanging energy between the building and the vehicle energy storage part with each other. To this end, the vehicle power source connection part 130 may be a power connector 131 or a wireless power transmission and reception module 132. The vehicle power connection part 130 may be in the form of a physical connector or a wireless power transmission and reception module of a wirelessly chargeable plate (pad) or the like when the power source is electric power, and the vehicle power connection part 130 may be in the form of a hydrogen exchangeable connector when the power source is hydrogen.

In addition, a data connection portion 140 is provided in the vehicle, and the data connection portion 140 is connected to the communication portion 340 of the building to transmit and receive data with the building. The vehicle control section and the building control section are connected through the data connection section 140 to perform mutual control. In addition, the temperature or audio frequency, door, etc. of the vehicle or building can be controlled uniformly through the above.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the vehicle power source connection part 130 may be a power connector 131, the power connector 131 being disposed at a side of the vehicle facing the building and fastened with a connector module 331 of the building. In addition, as shown in fig. 1, the vehicle power source connection part 130 may also be a wireless power transmission and reception module that is provided on the bottom surface of the vehicle or the side surface of the vehicle facing the building or the roof of the vehicle.

On the other hand, the data connection portion 140 of the vehicle may be connected to the vehicle control portion 150, or may be provided integrally with the vehicle control portion 150 as shown in the figure. The data connection part may be in the form of the data connector 132 when the data connection part is provided separately from the vehicle control part, and the data connection part 140 may be a wireless communication module when the data connection part and the vehicle control part are integrally provided. The data connection 140 may be a data connector 132, the data connector 132 being disposed on a side of the vehicle facing the building and secured to a connector module 332 of the building. As shown, when the data connection part 140 is in the form of a connector, the data connection part 140 may also be in a form integrally formed with the power connector 131.

On the other hand, the vehicle control part 150 may control the door according to the access level with the building to perform one or more of a connection mode in which connection is made with an entrance of the building, an energy mode in which energy is exchanged between the building and the vehicle energy storage part through the vehicle energy connection part, and a data mode in which data is transmitted and received between the building and the vehicle energy storage part through the data connection part.

That is, when the vehicle approaches the building, the vehicle control portion 150 and the building control portion 350 read the access level of the vehicle by communicating with each other. When the access level is read, the level of the executable pattern may be determined based on the read access level.

Fig. 2 is a diagram for explaining control of a vehicle connected to a building and a connection system of the vehicle and the building according to an embodiment of the present invention, and the vehicle control portion may execute a connection mode, an energy mode, and a data mode when an access level is level 1, and may give a control authority of the vehicle to the building when the vehicle control portion executes the data mode. In the case of the level 1 connection mode, the door of the vehicle and the doorway (Hatch) of the building are both opened and connected, so that it is possible to share (Docking) a space and connect power and data.

When the access level is level 2, the vehicle control portion executes the connection mode and the energy mode to perform docking, but performs only charging without transmitting and receiving data. In addition, when the access level is level 3, the vehicle control portion performs only the connection mode and performs only the docking, and when the access level is level 4, the vehicle control portion performs only the energy mode and performs only the charging. When the connection mode is executed, all may be opened for connection, and only half may also be opened for connection to a small extent.

The access level explained above may be defined as various cases. For example, level 1 may be defined as the case of the actual occupant of the building and the actual owner or all of their vehicles, level 2 may be defined as the case of a person or vehicle that is permitted by the occupant, level 3 may be defined as the case of a person or vehicle that temporarily requires access to be permitted, level 4 may be defined as the case of a third person or vehicle that requires only charging and is not permitted access to the building, and so on.

On the other hand, when the vehicle control portion is in the energy mode, the vehicle energy storage portion may charge the energy from the building energy supply portion through the vehicle energy connection portion. That is, the electric vehicle can be charged.

In particular, when the vehicle control portion is in the energy mode, the available amount of the building energy supply portion is equal to or less than a predetermined reference, and the stored amount of the vehicle energy storage portion is equal to or more than a predetermined reference, the vehicle energy storage portion may supply energy to the building energy supply portion through the vehicle energy connection portion. That is, in this case, when the power supply of the building is blocked due to occurrence of a disaster or the like, the electric energy charged in the vehicle energy storage portion may be supplied to the building so that the building can operate. Preferably, in this case, it is possible to use the condition that the available amount of the building energy supply portion is equal to or less than the predetermined reference and the stored amount of the vehicle energy storage portion is equal to or more than the predetermined reference. So that the vehicle and the building can be stably operated.

In addition, when the vehicle control portion is in the energy mode, the available amount of the building energy supply portion is equal to or less than a predetermined reference, the amount of energy consumption of the building is equal to or less than a predetermined reference, and the stored amount of the vehicle energy storage portion is equal to or more than a predetermined reference, the vehicle energy storage portion may supply energy to the building energy supply portion through the vehicle energy connection portion. That is, it is preferable that the electric power of the vehicle is supplied only when the energy consumption amount of the building is a predetermined reference or less, so that only the electric power in an emergency is supplied.

Further, the vehicle-to-building connection system of the present invention includes: a doorway 310 of a building, which is provided in the building and, when connected to a door of a vehicle in an opened state, allows an indoor space of the vehicle and an indoor space of the building to be connected to each other as one space; a building energy connection portion 330 provided in the building and connected to the vehicle energy connection portion to exchange energy with the vehicle energy storage portion; a communication part 340 of the building, provided in the building and connected to the vehicle data connection part to transmit and receive data with the vehicle; and a building control part 350 controlling the entrance according to the access level of the vehicle to perform one or more of a connection mode in which a door of the vehicle is connected, an energy mode in which energy is exchanged between the building and the vehicle energy storage part through the building energy connection part, and a data mode in which data is transmitted and received between the vehicle and the communication part of the building.

Also, the connection system of the vehicle and the building may further include a parking space 360 provided at a side of the building and as a space in which parking is possible. In addition, the building energy source connection part 330 is a wireless power transmission and reception module, which may be disposed at a side of the building facing the vehicle or at a bottom surface of the parking space, or may be disposed above the parking space to face a top of the vehicle.

Fig. 3 is a diagram showing a vehicle connected to a building and a connection system of the vehicle and the building according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention. In this case, two vehicles 100, 100 'including another vehicle 100' are shown connected to the building 300. In this case, one side vehicle power source connection portion 130 of the vehicle 100 is connected to a building and charging is performed. And, the other side vehicle power source connection part 130 of the vehicle is connected to the vehicle power source connection part 130 'of another vehicle, so that the vehicle 100 and the another vehicle 100' of the present invention can be connected together in series with the building. In this case, the other vehicle 100' may indirectly exchange electric energy with the energy supply portion 320 of the building through the vehicle 100 of the invention.

In addition, two vehicles may be continuously connected to share a physical space with the building, or it is also possible to have only vehicles near the building spatially connected to the building.

Fig. 4 to 6 are diagrams showing a charging method of the vehicle and the connection system of the vehicle and the building of fig. 3, and show a charging method in the case of connection as shown in fig. 3. Fig. 4 shows a case where the vehicle energy connection portions 130 and 130' of the respective vehicles are connected in parallel with the building energy connection portion 330. For such parallel connection, each vehicle may be connected to the building in the manner shown in fig. 6. Fig. 6 shows a state in which the respective vehicles 100, 100 'are parked side by side at the side of the building 300, and the respective vehicles 100, 100' are connected to the building 300 by wireless charging, thereby being connected in parallel with the building 300.

Further, fig. 5 is a case of series connection, showing a case where the vehicle and vehicle power source connection portions 130, 130' are connected to each other and to the building power source connection portion 330 in series.

For such complicated various connections, preferably, wireless power transmitting and receiving modules may be provided at the sides of the vehicle and the building, and data may be exchanged with each other through the wireless communication module. This is because this is very effective in terms of connectivity in which two or more vehicles or buildings are all connected together.

According to the vehicle connected to the building and the connection system of the vehicle and the building of the present invention, the vehicle and the building are physically/electrically connected to each other, so that energy, shared space, and information can be exchanged.

While the specific embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the drawings, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the technical idea of the present invention as set forth in the claims.
