US Patent 11787300 Vehicle and charging system

The vehicle includes an inlet configured to be connected to a charging connector provided in a charging station, a lock device configured to switch between a locked state where the charging connector is locked to the inlet and an unlocked state where the charging connector is removable from the inlet, a power storage device configured to be charged with an electric power supplied through the charging connector, and a control device configured to control charging of the power storage device. In a state where the charging connector is connected to the inlet and the power storage device is being charged, the control device stops charging when the lock device is in the unlocked state.
