TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of automobiles, and particularly relates to a horizontal position self-adaptive adjusting system and adjusting method for automobile safety belts. BACKGROUND
[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present application and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

At present, the wearing position of a safety belt is affected by the position of a retractor, a buckle and a lower fixing point. Usually, after the positions of these arrangement points are determined, the position of the safety belt relative to the shoulder of a human body is fixed. This will result in the fact that different body types of personnel may have the situation of shoulder slipping or neck squeezing when they ride, which seriously affects the riding comfort and even the safety protection performance.
[0004] In view of the above problems, an adaptive adjusting type safety belt is proposed in the prior art.

[0025] It should be noted that the following detailed description is exemplary only, is only for describing the specific embodiments, and is intended to provide further description of the application, and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the application. Unless otherwise indicated, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as generally understood by those skilled in the art to which the application belongs. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in the specification, they indicate the presence of a feature, step, operation, device, component and / or their combination.
[0026] Embodiment One To solve the problems of existing adaptive adjustment type seat belt system, such as body type recognition deviation and adjustment response lag, the embodiment provides a car seat belt transverse position adaptive adjustment system, which can accurately identify the body type of the occupant, determine the shoulder position of the occupant, automatically adjust the position of the seat belt on the shoulder, and predict the posture of the occupant at the next moment according to the posture of the occupant and the driving state of the vehicle, so as to respond to the adjustment of the position of the seat belt in advance, and ensure the comfort and safety of the occupant.
[0027] The car seat belt transverse position adaptive adjustment system provided by the embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , specifically includes a transverse position adjustment mechanism, a multi-modal sensing module and a controller.
[0028] The transverse position adjustment mechanism includes a slide rail 3 arranged on the seat back and an adjustment execution mechanism 2 moving along the slide rail, and the seat belt webbing is fixed on the open guide ring 7 arranged on the adjustment execution mechanism. Under normal circumstances, the seat belt 1 is installed on the set position in the body by bolts, the seat belt 1 webbing is fixed on the seat back 4 through the open guide ring 7 on the adjustment execution mechanism 2, the slide rail 3 is installed on the seat back 4 by bolts, the adjustment execution mechanism is connected with the slide rail 3 through a screw / turbine, the adjustment execution mechanism 2 is internally provided with a controller and a driving motor, the operation of the driving motor is controlled by the controller, the adjustment execution mechanism is driven by the driving motor to move transversely along the slide rail 3, and the transverse movement of the occupant's shoulder seat belt position is driven.
[0029] Through the design of the above transverse position adjustment mechanism, a stable and controllable hardware foundation can be provided for the transverse movement of the seat belt, which breaks through the limitation of the fixed position of the traditional seat belt and realizes the active adjustment of the transverse position of the seat belt.
[0030] Further, the multi-modal sensing module is used to collect multi-modal body shape data and dynamic posture data of the occupant, and the multi-modal sensing module includes an image acquisition unit, a pressure sensing array, and a millimeter wave radar. The image acquisition unit adopts a high-frequency RGB camera 6, which is mounted in the rearview mirror area of the vehicle through bolts, and can collect video frame time sequence images of the seated occupant on all seats, so as to ensure real-time capture of dynamic posture data (such as slight shoulder deviation) of the occupant, and avoid missing of posture information caused by low-frequency acquisition. The pressure sensing array includes a plurality of pressure sensors 5, which are distributed and mounted on the key stress areas of the seat cushion and the seat back through adhesion, and can collect multi-dimensional pressure data of the seated occupant, so as to obtain data such as body weight distribution and sitting posture (such as whether to lean forward), and make up for the defects of only focusing on the appearance shape, especially for more accurate adaptation to special sitting postures of the occupant such as pregnant women. The millimeter wave radar is mounted in the rearview mirror area of the vehicle through bolts, and can obtain three-dimensional contour point cloud data of the shoulder of the seated occupant. The data can fully reflect three-dimensional features such as shoulder thickness and shoulder curvature, solve the problem that the two-dimensional image cannot reflect the three-dimensional shape of the shoulder, and significantly reduce the recognition error of special body types such as obese and narrow-shouldered types, thereby providing key three-dimensional feature support for subsequent static optimal position calculation.
[0031] As shown in Figure 3 , the pressure sensor 5, the in-vehicle camera 6, and the millimeter wave radar are signal acquisition elements, the adjustment actuator 2 is a controller and an actuator, the slide rail 3 is an actuator, and the safety belt 1 and the seat 4 are carriers. The controller built in the adjustment actuator 2 is electrically connected with the multi-modal sensing module, the transverse position adjustment mechanism, and the vehicle controller. The controller determines the static optimal transverse position of the safety belt according to the multi-modal body shape data of the occupant, predicts the posture of the occupant according to the dynamic posture data and the driving state of the vehicle to optimize the transverse position, generates a dynamic adjustment instruction based on the transverse position, and drives the adjustment actuator to move transversely along the slide rail.
[0032] Specifically, after the occupant is seated on the seat 4 and buckles up the safety belt 1, the controller collects multi-modal body shape data and dynamic posture data of the occupant through the multi-modal sensing module, first analyzes the body shape of the occupant to determine the static optimal transverse position.
[0033] Considering that the traditional method of roughly judging two types of body shapes through pressure and two-dimensional images has the problems of large differences in shoulder features of special body types, deviation of unified adjustment logic, and nonlinear mapping relationship between body shape parameters and optimal positions of the safety belt, which is difficult to be covered by traditional rules, the embodiment further refines the body shape classification, accurately identifies different body shapes through multi-dimensional data, and determines accurate shoulder positions for different body shapes to solve the above problems. Specifically, the body shape analysis and transverse position determination step includes: S1.1, preprocessing the collected occupant multi-modal body shape data. Among them, the multi-modal body shape data includes video frame time sequence image, multi-dimensional pressure data and shoulder three-dimensional contour point cloud data: for the video frame time sequence image collected by the in-vehicle camera, Gaussian filtering is used to remove noise, and Canny edge detection operator is used to extract shoulder contour image; for multi-dimensional pressure data, normalization processing is performed, that is, the pressure value detected by the i-th pressure sensor is mapped to the interval [0, 1], and the formula is: ; for the shoulder three-dimensional contour point cloud data, the RANSAC algorithm is used to remove environmental noise points and retain the effective points of the shoulder. Through the above preprocessing steps, the noise in the multi-modal data can be filtered, the accuracy of subsequent feature extraction can be ensured, and the body shape recognition deviation caused by noise can be avoided.
[0034] S1.2, input the preprocessed multi-modal body shape data into the body shape classification model, the body shape classification model includes a feature extraction module, a feature fusion module and a body shape classification module, the image feature, the pressure feature and the point cloud feature are extracted through the feature extraction module, the multiple features are input into the feature fusion module, the fusion feature is obtained through the feature fusion and attention mechanism, and finally the classification result of the occupant body shape is output through the body shape classification module according to the fusion feature.
[0035] Among them, based on the feature extraction module, the 256-dimensional feature vector of the shoulder contour image is extracted through the ResNet-18 network , and the image feature contains shoulder width, shoulder peak distance and other information; the normalized pressure data is processed through the fully connected network, and the 64-dimensional feature vector is output, which reflects the weight distribution and sitting posture; the shoulder effective point cloud data is processed through the PointNet++ network, and the 128-dimensional feature vector is output, which contains shoulder thickness, shoulder curvature and other three-dimensional feature information.
[0036] Further, based on the feature fusion module, the above three types of features are spliced into a 448-dimensional vector , and then input into the attention mechanism module to automatically assign weights to obtain the fusion feature , wherein, , k represents the category.
[0037] Finally, in the body shape classification module, the body shape is divided into 5 categories: children, slim type, standard type, obese type and pregnant women by using softmax regression, and the classification probability is output.
[0038] S1.3, taking the fusion feature as input, outputting the static optimal transverse position of the safety belt through the gradient boosting tree model trained corresponding to the recognized body shape type.
[0039] Specifically, for each type of body shape, a separate gradient boosting tree (GBDT) model is trained to extract the static optimal lateral position of the seat belt. The formula is: ; In the above formula, is the weight coefficient, is the mth decision tree, and M is the total number of inputs, is the fusion feature vector.
[0040] By matching the corresponding trained gradient boosting tree model for the identified body type, rather than a single model covering all body types, the physiological characteristics of different body types (such as narrow shoulders in children and shoulder force deviation in pregnant women) can be fully adapted, ensuring the calculation accuracy of the static optimal lateral position, and avoiding shoulder slipping and neck compression when initially wearing.
[0041] Finally, after determining the static optimal lateral position, a dynamic adjustment instruction is generated based on the difference between the current position of the seat belt and the optimal lateral position, driving the adjustment actuator to move laterally along the slide rail to the optimal position to improve comfort. As shown in Figure 4 , for passengers of different body types, the embodiment can adjust the lateral position of the seat belt. Compared with traditional methods, the embodiment can further improve the accuracy of body type classification and effectively reduce the deviation of the seat belt position for special body types (such as pregnant women), achieving more accurate adjustment of the seat belt lateral position according to the passenger's body type.
[0042] Further, considering the real-time changes in passenger posture, existing methods only adjust passively after the body posture changes, which will cause the body to quickly deviate due to inertia during sudden acceleration / turning, and the adjustment lag will easily cause shoulder slipping or neck compression. Moreover, the dynamic interaction between the seat belt and the body is not considered during the adjustment process, which may result in excessive or insufficient adjustment and cause shoulder slipping or neck compression. To address this issue, in the embodiment, the passenger's posture can be predicted based on dynamic posture data and vehicle driving state, and then a PID closed-loop control is performed to optimize the lateral position of the seat belt, thereby avoiding adjustment lag and over-adjustment. The adjustment method specifically includes: S2.1, acquire the video frame time sequence image of the passenger according to the set acquisition frequency, and extract the real-time coordinates of the passenger's shoulder key points in each image , ); simultaneously, the tension of the seat belt fabric , the acceleration , and the steering angle of the vehicle are collected in real time.
[0043] In this embodiment, the posture image of the upper body of the occupant is collected at 60 frames per second, and the real-time coordinates of the shoulder key points are extracted by MediaPipe. At the same time, a tension sensor is installed in the safety belt, and the real-time tension is collected by the tension sensor to reflect the binding force between the safety belt and the human body.
[0044] S2.2, according to the real-time coordinates of the shoulder key points of the occupant, and combining the optimal position of the shoulder key points adapted to the body type, the shoulder offset is obtained, and the shoulder offset sequence is constructed.
[0045] Wherein, after determining the body type by the above-mentioned manner, the corresponding optimal position of the shoulder key points can be determined according to the body type; or according to the determined optimal static transverse position of the safety belt, moving a set distance along the safety belt, the corresponding optimal position of the shoulder key points can be determined. Further, the shoulder offset at different times can be calculated, which is: In the above formula, represents the shoulder offset, , represents the shoulder key point coordinates, , and the optimal position of the shoulder key points adapted to the body type.
[0046] S2.3, taking the shoulder offset sequence of a set time length before the current time and the vehicle driving state sequence as input, the shoulder offset prediction value of the next time period is output by the prediction model based on bidirectional LSTM.
[0047] Specifically, the offset sequence of a set time length (such as 1 second before) before the current time , and the acceleration and the steering angle of the vehicle driving are input into the prediction model based on bidirectional LSTM, the historical trend is captured by the forward LSTM, the future dependence is captured by the backward LSTM, and finally the offset sequence in the future 0.5 seconds is output by the linear activation. , which can be represented as: , ; Wherein, 、 is a coefficient.
[0048] S2.4, according to the shoulder offset prediction value and the real-time tension, the movement of the adjusting actuator is calculated by PID closed-loop control, and the transverse position of the safety belt is adjusted.
[0049] In this embodiment, the movement amount of the adjustment mechanism is calculated according to the predicted offset and the real-time pulling force, so as to ensure that the offset is within the set range, to avoid shoulder slipping or neck tightening, and to ensure that the pulling force is within the comfortable range, to ensure the comfort of the passengers. The calculation process is as follows: Firstly, based on the shoulder offset prediction value and the real-time pulling force , the comprehensive error is calculated as follows: ; Secondly, based on the comprehensive error, the movement amount of the adjustment actuator is calculated through PID closed-loop control as follows: ; In the above formula, , represent the weights, , represent the minimum and maximum values of the pulling force, , , are the PID coefficients.
[0050] By using the above LSTM time series prediction and force feedback PID control method, the passive response is improved to active prediction control, which can realize the closed-loop control of "prediction-adjustment-feedback", and solve the problems of lag and over-regulation. Moreover, the PID closed-loop control combines the offset prediction value and the real-time pulling force, so as to dynamically adjust the movement amount of the adjustment actuator according to the error, to avoid the sudden tightening or small shoulder slipping caused by the excessive adjustment range, and to ensure that the seat belt always fits the shoulder during the dynamic process, and to balance safety and comfort.
[0051] The above system proposed in this embodiment can not only determine the static optimal transverse position through multi-modal body shape data, to solve the position deviation problem of the initial wearing of passengers of different body shapes, such as small and thin type neck tightening and obese type shoulder slipping, but also can predict the passenger posture by combining the dynamic posture and vehicle state, to generate dynamic adjustment instructions, to avoid the hysteresis of the existing passive adjustment, and to fundamentally balance safety and comfort.
