Abstract: A charging cable locking device locks or unlocks a charging cable in association with the locking and unlocking of a vehicle door. In the charging cable locking device, a power supply plug of the charging cable is joined to an inlet provided in a power supply opening, and the charging cable is locked when a state in which a battery is being charged by power supplied from the charging cable continues for a predetermined time.

Abstract: An electronic key registration system includes a controller arranged in a communication subject communicable with an electronic key. A registration tool is in wired or wireless connection with the communication subject. The registration tool registers the electronic key to the controller when receiving a registration permission signal. An information center is connected to a network. The registration tool includes an operator ID acquisition unit that acquires an operator ID from a key registration operator. A communication unit sends the operator ID to the information center through the network. The information center includes an operator ID verification unit that verifies the operator ID received from the registration tool. A permission information notification unit sends, when the operator ID is verified, a registration permission signal to the registration tool through the network to permit the registration tool to perform the registration process.

Abstract: An onboard system includes a switch arranged on a vehicle at a location allowing for a user to operate the switch from outside the vehicle. A control unit allows for a vehicle power supply to be switched OFF if an operation performed on the switch is detected when a power supply plug is connected to a charge inlet.

Abstract: A plug lock device that allows for a power plug fitted to an inlet to be switched between a lock state and an unlock state. The plug lock device includes a communication unit capable of communicating with the power plug and a control unit configured to identify the power plug fitted to the inlet based on the communication performed by the communication unit. The control unit is operable based on the identification of the power plug in a lock restriction mode that restricts switching of the power plug to the lock state.

Abstract: A lock device locks a locking subject to a power port. The lock device is provided with a lock mechanism including a lock member that is movable between a lock position and an unlock position. The lock mechanism moves the lock member to the lock position to lock the locking subject and moves the lock member to the unlock position to unlock the locking subject. A location registration unit registers, as a registered location, a location where switching of the locking subject between a lock state and an unlock state is prohibited or permitted. A location acquisition unit acquires a present location of the lock device. A switching control unit compares the present location with the registered location and controls the lock mechanism based on the comparison to switch the locking subject between the lock state and the unlock state.

Abstract: A lock device locks a locking subject to restrict removal of a charge cable from a power port of a vehicle or restrict access of the charge cable to the power port). The lock device includes a verification request unit that requests for wireless communication verification including vehicle interior verification to be executed on an electronic key when detecting an event that initiates the wireless communication verification. A control unit controls at least one of locking and unlocking of the locking subject based on a result of the wireless communication verification.

Abstract: A lock system includes a lock device arranged in at least a vehicle. The lock device includes a lock member movable between a lock position and an unlock position. The lock device locks a lock subject to the vehicle when the lock member is located at the lock position and unlocks the lock subject when the lock member is located at the unlock position. A controller, which performs power line communication, includes a request output unit that transmits an operation request to the lock device by performing the power line communication to switch the lock subject between a locked state and an unlocked state. The lock device includes a lock control unit that receives the operation request from the controller and controls movement of the lock member based on the operation request.
