Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of two-wheeled vehicle control, and in particular to a control method for a two-wheeled vehicle onboard system. Background Art

[0002] As intelligent functions are becoming more and more popular in two-wheeled vehicles, the functions of instruments are increasing, the number of buttons to control the instruments is increasing, and the screens are getting bigger. The entire vehicle requires buttons to control the instruments, or direct control through a touch screen.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN202110943856.2 discloses a motorcycle, including a central control system, which includes a control component and a display screen; the control component can control the display screen to display instrument images and entertainment images in at least two different and switchable display modes; the at least two different and switchable display modes include a first display mode and a second display mode; wherein the number of entertainment images displayed on the display screen in the second display mode is greater than the number of entertainment images displayed on the display screen in the first display mode; the control device also includes a central control component; the control device is also used to control the operation of the central control system based on the central control component; the central control system can receive control instructions based on the central control component, and perform corresponding operations based on the received control instructions. In this way, it is beneficial for users to view relevant information; and the control of the central control system can be realized more conveniently and quickly, ensuring driving safety.

[0004] However, in the actual implementation process, the inventors found that with the increase of intelligent functions of two-wheeled vehicles, the control method similar to the above-mentioned switching and displaying of functions through the control device will lead to the problem of complicated operation process and long time consumption. Since the stability of two-wheeled vehicles is worse than that of cars during driving, especially during low-speed driving, the driver's distracted operation of the instrument will significantly increase the driving risk. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the above problems existing in the prior art, a control method for an on-board system of a two-wheeled vehicle is now provided.

[0006] The specific technical scheme is as follows: A control method for a two-wheeled vehicle on-board system, applicable to a two-wheeled vehicle instrument and control system, the two-wheeled vehicle instrument and control system comprising an instrument and an instrument control button; the instrument control button is installed near the handlebar of the two-wheeled vehicle and is electrically connected to the instrument; the instrument control button comprises an unlock button and a function control button; the control method comprises: at the initial stage, the instrument is in a first state, the instrument in the first state displays a first function interface and only provides a first type of vehicle function; step S1: when the user inputs an unlock signal to the instrument through the unlock button, the instrument receives the speed data of the two-wheeled vehicle and determines whether the speed data is greater than the function lock speed limit; if so, generates a prompt message and returns to the step S1; if not, turns to step S2; step S2: the instrument switches to a second state, and in the second state, responds to the function control signal output by the function control button to display content; step S3: the instrument determines whether the two-wheeled vehicle meets the locking condition, and returns the instrument to the first state when the locking condition is met, and then returns to step S1.

[0007] On the other hand, the unlock button includes a first unlock button and a second unlock button; in the step S1, the instrument receives a first unlock signal output by the first unlock button and a second unlock signal output by the second unlock button, and when the first unlock signal and the second unlock signal are received at the same time, it is considered that the user has output the unlock signal.

[0008] On the other hand, the step S1 includes: step S11: the instrument receives and stores the vehicle speed data from the on-board electronic device; the on-board electronic device is the electronic control unit or speed sensor of the two-wheeled vehicle; step S12: when the unlocking signal is received, extract multiple vehicle speed data and form a historical vehicle speed sequence of a preset length; step S13: determine whether the maximum value of the historical vehicle speed sequence is greater than the function locking speed limit; if so, generate the prompt information and return to the step S1; if not, go to step S2.

[0009] On the other hand, the step S2 includes: step S21: the instrument switches from the first state to the second state and displays an unlock mark; step S22: the instrument receives the function control signal input by the function control button, and controls the vehicle system to perform corresponding operations according to the function control signal to change the display content.

[0010] On the other hand, the instrument includes a primary interface and a secondary interface; the primary interface is used to display vehicle status information, navigation information and shortcut functions; the secondary interface is used to display vehicle function settings, tire pressure information, maintenance information, battery management information, and mobile phone Bluetooth connection information; in step S22, the instrument switches to the secondary interface according to the function control signal.

[0011] On the other hand, after executing step S21, the instrument also creates an operation timer and starts timing; in step S22, when the instrument receives the function control signal, the operation timer is reset; then in step S3, it is determined whether the operation timer has reached the automatic locking time, and if so, it is considered that the locking condition is met.

[0012] On the other hand, during the execution of step S3, when the user triggers the unlocking signal again, it is considered that the locking condition is satisfied.

[0013] On the other hand, the function control button is a three-end rocker button; the overall downward end of the function control button corresponds to the first shortcut of the instrument; the first end of the function control button corresponds to turning pages up and long pressing to return; the second end of the function control button corresponds to turning pages down and long pressing to confirm.

[0014] On the other hand, the unlock button is a three-end rocker button; the first unlock button and the second unlock button are two ends of the three-end rocker button.

[0015] On the other hand, before executing the step S1, it also includes: step S01: when the two-wheeled vehicle is powered on, the post-lock electricity is transmitted to the instrument, and the instrument enters the first state.

[0016] The above technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects: In view of the problem that the operation method of two-wheeled vehicles in the prior art is complicated and prone to accidents, in this solution, the first state and the second state associated with the vehicle speed and unlocking action are introduced to the instrument system. In the first state, only basic driving display functions are displayed and allowed to be used, and other relatively complex functions are opened in the second state. When in use, the user's unlocking action and current vehicle speed are judged at the same time. When the conditions are not met, the corresponding function is not opened, thereby avoiding accidents that may be caused by the user's distraction when operating relatively complex instrument functions when driving at high speed.

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0025] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0026] The present invention comprises: a control method of a two-wheeled vehicle onboard system, which is applicable to a two-wheeled vehicle instrument and control system, wherein the two-wheeled vehicle instrument and control system comprises an instrument 1 and an instrument control button; Figure 2 As shown, the instrument control button is installed near the handlebar of the two-wheeled vehicle and is electrically connected to the instrument; the instrument control button includes a left button 2 and a right button 3, which are used as an unlocking button and a function control button.

[0027] Among them, the left button 2 is located near the left handlebar, and the right button 3 is located near the right handlebar. Both are three-end seesaw buttons, which include a seesaw-like button body, which is mounted on a multi-link structure. Normally, the button body is arranged in the up and down direction and tilted at both ends, similar to a straight or obtuse shape with a snout. Pressing either end will trigger a corresponding electrical signal and reset. When the middle part is pressed, another electrical signal will be triggered. Based on the combination of the above signals, a corresponding operation instruction can be formed and input into the instrument 1.

[0028] The unlock button and function control button are abstract concepts based on the control button or panel, that is, "the button for unlocking" and "the button for controlling the function". They are not necessarily in a one-to-one correspondence with the physical buttons, and may be a single button, multiple buttons or a combination, and may also change with the switching of states.

[0029] For example, pressing the lower half of the left button 2 and the right button 3 at the same time can be understood as a triggering action for the unlock button. However, according to other embodiments, pressing a specific part of one of the buttons alone can also be used as a triggering action for the unlock button.

[0030] The instrument 1 is a computer device configured with a specific computer program to realize corresponding functions, especially the intelligent functions of the vehicle. It can usually be understood as a collection of processors, displays, and communication modules, which can be used to run specific vehicle systems and multi-function programs. In some embodiments, it can also be considered as a collection of separate instrument components and vehicle system modules. The instrument 1 is connected to various modules such as the vehicle's battery, electronic control module, sensors, and the above-mentioned left button 2 and right button 3 through a bus system.

[0031] Based on the above-mentioned two-wheeled vehicle instrument and control system, the control method includes: at the initial stage, the instrument is in the first state, the instrument in the first state displays the first function interface and only provides the first type of vehicle function; step S1: when the user inputs an unlock signal to the instrument through the unlock button, the instrument receives the speed data of the two-wheeled vehicle, and determines whether the speed data is greater than the function lock speed limit; if so, generate a prompt message and return to step S1; if not, turn to step S2; step S2: the instrument switches to the second state, and in the second state responds to the function control signal output by the function control button to display the content; step S3: the instrument determines whether the two-wheeled vehicle meets the locking conditions, and returns the instrument to the first state when the locking conditions are met, and then returns to step S1.

[0032] Specifically, in response to the problem that the operation methods of two-wheeled vehicles in the prior art are complicated and prone to accidents, in this embodiment, a first state and a second state associated with the vehicle speed and unlocking action are introduced to the instrument system. In the first state, only basic driving display functions are displayed and allowed to be used, and other relatively complex functions are opened in the second state.

[0033] When in use, the user's unlocking action and the current vehicle speed are judged at the same time. Only when the user actively performs the unlocking action and inputs the unlocking signal at low speed or stop, the instrument will be switched to the second state to provide more functions and respond to the control instructions of the function control button.

[0034] When in the second state, the instrument also continuously monitors various data of the two-wheeled vehicle, such as vehicle speed, user's movements, etc. When certain conditions meet the locking conditions, the instrument will be switched back to the first state, and the display content of the instrument will be changed, prohibiting the user from accessing specific functions, etc., thereby avoiding accidents that may be caused by the user being distracted by operating relatively complex instrument functions while driving at high speed.

[0035] To realize the above switching process, before executing step S1, it also includes: step S01: when the two-wheeled vehicle is powered on, the post-lock electricity is transmitted to the instrument, and the instrument enters the first state.

[0036] Specifically, when the two-wheeled vehicle is unlocked, the electric door lock is usually released. The electric door lock is configured in a specific electronic control module, which is used to control functions such as motor drive. When the electric door lock is released, a lock signal is generated. When the instrument is turned on, it determines that the vehicle is unlocked and the vehicle system can be started according to the lock signal, and then enters the first state.

[0037] Furthermore, in some outdoor scenes of rainy and snowy weather, when the vehicle is stationary or just powered on, there is often water or snow accumulation on the instrument touch screen and touch buttons, which may cause the screen or button to be triggered by mistake, causing the instrument screen to jump. Therefore, when the electronic control module is initially powered on and the post-lock power is generated, directly switching the instrument to the first state can avoid false touches in this situation.

[0038] In one embodiment, the unlock button includes a first unlock button and a second unlock button; in step S1, the instrument receives a first unlock signal output by the first unlock button and a second unlock signal output by the second unlock button, and considers that the user has output an unlock signal when the first unlock signal and the second unlock signal are received at the same time.

[0039] Specifically, to avoid misunderstanding the lock, in this embodiment, two unlocking buttons are set. In step S1, the meter considers that the user has output an unlocking signal only when the first unlocking signal and the second unlocking signal are received at the same time. Corresponding to the above-mentioned left and right button embodiments, the first unlocking button can be set as the lower half of the left button, and the second unlocking button can be set as the lower half of the right button.

[0040] In one embodiment, step S1 includes: step S11: the instrument receives and stores vehicle speed data from the on-board electronic device; the on-board electronic device is an electronic control unit or a speed sensor of a two-wheeled vehicle; step S12: when an unlocking signal is received, extract multiple vehicle speed data and form a historical vehicle speed sequence of a preset length; step S13: determine whether the maximum value of the historical vehicle speed sequence is greater than the function locking speed limit; if so, generate a prompt message and return to step S1; if not, go to step S2.

[0041] Specifically, in order to achieve better driving safety, in this embodiment, it is determined that the vehicle can only be switched to the second state when it is prohibited or driving at a low speed, such as below 5 km / h. To implement this judgment process, the electronic control unit (ECU) or speed sensor of the two-wheeled vehicle transmits a vehicle speed signal to the instrument. The instrument receives the vehicle speed data and stores it in order. When the unlocking signal is received, multiple vehicle speed data are extracted and composed into a historical vehicle speed sequence of a preset length. The preset length is determined according to the sampling interval of the vehicle-mounted electronic equipment for the speed and the pre-calibrated judgment time.

[0042] Then, multiple values ​​in the historical vehicle speed sequence are compared with the function lock speed limit to determine whether the speed with the largest value is greater than the function lock speed limit. If so, a prompt message indicating that the unlocking is impossible is generated, and the instrument is controlled to maintain the first state. The above setting process ensures that more complex functions can be enabled only when the vehicle is stopped or driving at a low speed.

[0043] In some embodiments, the vehicle speed may also be compared in real time to determine the driving status.

[0044] In one embodiment, step S2 includes: step S21: the instrument switches from the first state to the second state and displays an unlock mark; step S22: the instrument receives a function control signal input by a function control button, and controls the vehicle system to perform corresponding operations according to the function control signal to change the display content.

[0045] Specifically, in order to achieve a better control process, in this embodiment, after determining that the unlocking condition is met, it switches to the second state and opens the corresponding function, and then displays the unlocking mark on the instrument. Then, the instrument receives the function control signal input by the function control button, and controls the vehicle system to perform the corresponding operation according to the function control signal to change the display content, for example, when the user operates a specific function, the corresponding interface is switched.

[0046] In one embodiment, after executing step S21, the instrument also creates an operation timer and starts timing; in step S22, when the instrument receives a function control signal, the operation timer is reset; then in step S3, it is determined whether the operation timer has reached the automatic locking time, and if so, it is considered that the locking condition is met.

[0047] Accordingly, in order to determine the locking status, in this embodiment, after executing step S21, an operation timer is also triggered, and the operation timer has a preset trigger time length, such as 20 seconds. At the same time, the operation timer will be reset by a valid function control signal, so as to count again. When the operation timer reaches the automatic locking time, it indicates that the user has not operated the function control button during this period of time, and the instrument is re-locked and returned to the first state to avoid subsequent malfunctions.

[0048] In one embodiment, during the execution of step S3, when the vehicle speed data reaches the function locking speed limit, it is considered that the locking condition is met.

[0049] Similarly, to avoid dangerous problems caused by the user operating the instrument after accelerating to a higher speed after unlocking, during the execution of step S3, the instrument also judges the real-time vehicle speed data. When the vehicle speed data reaches the function locking speed limit, it is considered that the locking condition is met and the vehicle is relocked.

[0050] In one embodiment, the instrument includes a primary interface and a secondary interface; the primary interface is used to display vehicle status information, navigation information and shortcut functions; the secondary interface is used to display vehicle function settings, tire pressure information, maintenance information, battery management information, and mobile phone Bluetooth connection information; in step S22, the instrument switches to the secondary interface according to the function control signal.

[0051] Specifically, to achieve better safety, in this embodiment, the display interface of the instrument is divided into a primary interface and a secondary interface according to the first state and the second state.

[0052] In the first state, the instrument will only display the first-level interface. The first-level interface is mainly used to display vehicle status information, navigation information and shortcut functions, etc., mainly related to the driving process, including vehicle speed, fuel level, fault information, body status information, etc.

[0053] At this time, the left and right buttons will be used to control functions directly related to driving, such as pressing the first end of the left button to trigger one-click rescue, pressing the second end of the left button to trigger voice interaction, the first end of the right button to turn on and off the projection navigation, the second end to make and receive calls, and turning Bluetooth on and off by long pressing.

[0054] In other embodiments, in the first state, the instrument will only respond to the shortcut button. In one embodiment, the shortcut button is bound to the central pressing area of ​​the left and right buttons to trigger a specific shortcut, such as switching the driving mode of the two-wheeled vehicle, answering or closing a call, etc.

[0055] In the second state, the instrument can switch to the secondary interface according to the function control signal to display additional information, such as tire pressure, maintenance, battery management, mobile phone Bluetooth connection, etc., and make additional setting options. In the second state, the instrument can respond to the remaining button combinations. For example, the left button is used as a function control button. At this time, the first end of the function control button corresponds to turning the page up and long pressing to return; the second end of the function control button corresponds to turning the page down and long pressing to confirm. Correspondingly, the right button can also be used as a function control button. For example, the first end jumps to the projection navigation setting interface, and the second end jumps to the instrument Bluetooth setting interface.

[0056] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods and protection scope of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should be aware that all solutions obtained by equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made using the description and illustrations of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
