DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] The core of the present application is to provide a gear shifting system and a vehicle, which are used to improve the safety of the gear shifting device and avoid traffic accidents.

[0036] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0037] Figure 1 A structural diagram of a shifting system provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the shifting system includes at least two operating devices 10, a controller 11, and a feedback device 12;

[0038] The operating device 10 generates an operating signal according to the user's operation, and sends the operating signal to the controller 11;

[0039] The controller 11 receives the operation signal, obtains the gear shift signal according to the operation signal, and controls the vehicle to shift gears when the driving state of the vehicle meets the preset gear shift conditions;

[0040] The feedback device 12 is connected to the controller 11 and sends a feedback signal after detecting that the vehicle shifts gears.

[0041] In this embodiment, a shifting device having four gear positions, namely, a parking gear P, a reverse gear R, a neutral gear N, and a forward gear D, is taken as an example to illustrate the shifting system proposed in the present application.

[0042] In a specific implementation, the operating device 10 can be any combination of a shift knob, a touch screen or a shift button, which is not limited here. After the user performs a shift operation, for example, by shifting the shift knob, sliding the gear icon on the touch screen or pressing the shift button, the corresponding sensor or driver sends an operation signal to the controller 11.

[0043] The controller 11 can be a control unit of the shift system, or a control unit of the vehicle control system, so as to reduce costs. The controller 11 receives the shift signal sent by the operating device 10, converts the operating signal into a shift signal, and then controls the vehicle to shift gears.

[0044] It should be noted that the shift system can control the vehicle's shifting only when the vehicle is started and the preset shifting conditions are met. For example, the gear can be switched to the parking gear P only when the vehicle stops.

[0045] The vehicle shifting device also includes a feedback device 12, which is used to feed back a signal of successful shifting to the driver, so that the driver can confirm whether to shift gears and determine the current gear position. The feedback device 12 can be a vibration module and a buzzer to remind the driver of successful shifting; it can also be a touch screen to facilitate the driver to check the current gear position.

[0046] It should be noted that the shifting device also has a fingerprint recognition module for recognizing the user's fingerprint, and the user can start the vehicle with the fingerprint.

[0047] This embodiment provides a shifting system, including at least two operating devices, a controller, and a feedback device; the operating device generates an operating signal according to the user's operation, and sends the operating signal to the controller; when the user operates the vehicle, the operating device can be selected according to personal preference to improve the user's experience. And because the shifting system has multiple operating devices, when a certain operating device fails, the user can use other operating devices to switch gears, avoid traffic accidents, and improve vehicle safety and reliability. The controller receives the operating signal, and obtains the shifting signal according to the operating signal, and determines whether the preset shifting conditions are met. If so, the vehicle is controlled to shift gears; the feedback device is connected to the controller, and when it detects that the vehicle has shifted gears successfully, it sends a feedback signal to remind the user that the gear has been shifted. It can be seen that the shifting system provided by this application can improve the safety of the shifting device and avoid traffic accidents.

[0048] The vehicle's operating devices are usually shift knobs, touch screens, shift buttons, shift knobs or shift levers. In actual operation, it is difficult to switch gears using a shift knob. The driver needs to accurately rotate the knob to the corresponding gear, which distracts the driver's attention. The shift lever takes up a large space in the vehicle, affecting the driver's driving experience. Compared with the shift lever and shift knob, the other three operating devices take up less space in the vehicle and are easier to operate.

[0049] Based on the above embodiments, the vehicle operating device is any combination of a shift knob, a shift button or a touch screen, for example, the vehicle operating device includes: a shift knob and a shift button, or a shift knob and a touch screen, or a shift button and a touch screen, or a shift knob and a shift button and a touch screen. It only needs to meet two or more shift conditions, and the specific combination is not limited here.

[0050] It can be understood that the shift knob includes a knob and a sensor, and the gear is switched when the knob is turned. The shift button includes a button and a button driver, and the gear is switched when the button is pressed. The touch screen can be used to display the current gear and can also be used to detect the user's gear shifting operation.

[0051] In this embodiment, any combination of a shift knob, a shift button or a touch screen is selected as the operating device of the shift system, so that the operating device occupies less space in the vehicle and improves the user experience; and the operation is simple, making driving safer.

[0052] The dial button includes a dial button with a mechanical structure that can be turned and a dial button without a mechanical structure. The dial button without a mechanical structure collects data through a sensor to determine the direction of the dial button, which is more convenient and quicker than the dial button with a mechanical structure, and will not be damaged due to frequent turning of the dial button, thereby extending the service life of the shift device. It should be noted that the operating direction of the dial button is not limited to linear operation, but can also be a rotational operation. This embodiment only takes the dial button with linear operation as an example to illustrate the present application scheme.

[0053] Figure 2 A structural diagram of an operating device provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, based on the above embodiment, when the operating device of the shift system is a shift paddle and a shift key, or a shift paddle and a touch screen, or a shift paddle and a touch screen and a shift key, the shift paddle includes:

[0054] A dial button 20, a capacitive sensor 21 and a pressure sensor 22;

[0055] The capacitive sensor 21 and the pressure sensor 22 are disposed at the dial button 20, and are used to detect the deformation of the dial button 20 and the pressure applied to the dial button 20 respectively;

[0056] The capacitance sensor 21 and the pressure sensor 22 are connected to the controller to send capacitance signals and pressure signals to the controller so that the controller can obtain corresponding shift signals according to the capacitance signals and pressure signals.

[0057] In a specific implementation, a capacitive sensor 21 can be set in front of and behind the button 20. When the button 20 is deformed by pressure, the capacitance values ​​in front and behind will change. The capacitance signal collected by the capacitive sensor 21 is sent to the controller to determine the deformation direction of the button 20 and generate a shift signal.

[0058] It should be noted that the pressure sensor 22 can be arranged on the side of the dial button 20 or below the dial button 20. In this embodiment, in order to facilitate sampling and calculation, the pressure sensor 22 is arranged below the dial button 20. After receiving the capacitance signal, the controller determines whether the pressure on the dial button 20 is greater than the threshold pressure through the pressure sensor 22. If it is greater than the threshold pressure, the corresponding shift signal is obtained according to the deformation direction of the shift dial button 20.

[0059] It can be understood that when switching gears by means of the shift knob, different gears can be switched according to the different deformations of the shift button caused by different shifting forces. For example, when the shifting force reaches 5N, the current gear is switched forward or backward by 1 gear in the order of parking gear P, reverse gear R, neutral gear N, and forward gear D. When the shifting force reaches 8N, the current gear is switched forward or backward by 2 gears, wherein when the knob 20 is deformed forward, the gear is switched forward, and when the knob 20 is deformed backward, the gear is switched backward. It can also be set to be independent of the shifting force and the shifting time, and one gear is switched each time the shift knob is turned.

[0060] In this embodiment, the gear switching is controlled by the shift paddles and other operating devices to prevent the gear shifting system from malfunctioning due to a malfunction of a certain operating device, thereby improving the safety and stability of the vehicle. At the same time, the shift paddles are easy to operate, occupy less space inside the car, and are convenient for users to switch gears, thereby improving the user experience.

[0061] When the touch screen is used to switch gears, multiple shifting methods can be built in, or the driver can set the shifting method himself. The touch screen can also display the current gear in real time, which is more convenient and quicker than other operating devices.

[0062] On the basis of the above embodiments, when the operating device of the gear shift system is a touch screen and a gear shift button, or a touch screen and a gear shift dial, or a gear shift dial, a touch screen and a gear shift button, the touch screen is connected to the controller, and when a gear shift operation of the user is detected, a gear shift command corresponding to the gear shift operation is sent to the controller, so that the controller obtains a corresponding gear shift signal according to the gear shift operation;

[0063] The touch screen is also used to display the current gear.

[0064] In specific implementations, the touch screen has a variety of gear shifting options, which can be selected by the driver according to his or her own operating habits. For example:

[0065] As shown in Fig. 3(a), the first gear position icon 31 corresponding to all gear positions is displayed on the touch screen, and the first gear shift icon 30 on the screen is dragged to move the first gear shift icon 30 to the target gear position. When the first gear shift icon 30 stays at the target gear position for a certain period of time, the touch screen sends a signal to the controller. For example, if the vehicle is currently in the parking gear P, the gear shift icon is also in the P gear. When the driver wants to switch the gear to the reverse gear R, he needs to drag the first gear shift icon 30 from the gear icon corresponding to the P gear to the gear icon corresponding to the R gear, and make the first gear shift icon 30 stay at the R gear for a period of time. After the touch screen detects that the first gear shift icon 30 stays at the R gear for more than the preset stay time, it will send the user's operation signal to the controller; similarly, when the gear is switched from the P gear to the N gear, When the gear is switched from P gear to D gear, from R gear to P gear, from R gear to N gear, from R gear to D gear, from N gear to P gear, from N gear to R gear, from N gear to D gear, from D gear to P gear, from D gear to R gear, from D gear to N gear, the driver needs to drag the first gear shift icon 30 from the current gear to the target gear and stay for a certain time. It can be understood that the preset stay time can be a time set by the user or a time automatically set by the system.

[0066] As shown in FIG3(b), the second gear position icon 32 corresponding to all gear positions is displayed on the touch screen, and a certain area of ​​the touch screen is set as a gear shift area 33, wherein the gear position icon is an integral icon, including P gear, R gear, N gear and D gear. When the gear position icon 32 is dragged, the gear position icon 32 will move as a whole. After the second gear position icon 32 is dragged to the first gear shift area 33 and stays there for a certain period of time, the touch screen sends a signal to the controller, and the gear position icon returns to its original position after the gear shift is completed; for example, the current vehicle is in the parking gear P gear, that is, the P gear icon in the second gear position icon 32 is located in the gear shift area. When the driver wants to switch the gear to the reverse gear R gear, the second gear position icon 32 needs to be dragged to move the P gear icon in the second gear position icon 32 out of the first gear shift area 33, and the R gear icon in the second gear position icon 32 enters the first gear shift area 33, and the R gear icon stays in the gear shift area for a period of time. The touch screen detects that the R gear icon in the second gear position icon 32 stays in the first gear shift area 33 for more than the preset time. After the stay time, the user's operation signal will be sent to the controller; similarly, when the gear is switched from P gear to N gear, when the gear is switched from P gear to D gear, when the gear is switched from R gear to P gear, when the gear is switched from R gear to D gear, when the gear is switched from R gear to N gear, when the gear is switched from N gear to P gear, when the gear is switched from N gear to R gear, when the gear is switched from N gear to D gear, when the gear is switched from D gear to P gear, when the gear is switched from D gear to R gear, when the gear is switched from D gear to N gear, the driver needs to drag the second gear icon 32 to move the icon corresponding to the current gear out of the gear shift area 33, and make the gear icon corresponding to the target gear enter the first gear shift area 33 and stay for a certain time. It can be understood that the preset stay time can be the time set by the user or the time automatically set by the system. After the gear shift is completed, the second gear icon 32 can return to the original position or stay in the gear shift area.

[0067] As shown in Fig. 3(c), the third gear icon 35 corresponding to all gears is displayed on the touch screen, and a gear shift area 34 is set on the touch screen. The second gear shift area 34 is located at a certain position on the screen and does not overlap with the third gear icon 35. It can be a fixed position box. The position of the second gear shift area 34 on the screen and the shape and size of the second gear shift area 34 are not limited here. When switching gears, drag the gear icon to move the target gear to the gear shift icon and stay for a certain time. The touch screen sends a signal to the controller, and the gear icon returns to the original position after the gear shift is completed; for example, if the current vehicle is in the parking gear P gear, the driver wants to switch the gear to N gear, and needs to drag the gear icon corresponding to N gear to the second gear shift area 34, and make the gear icon stay in the second gear shift area 34 for a period of time. The touch screen detects When the gear icon stays in the second gear shift area 34 for more than the preset stay time, the user's operation signal will be sent to the controller; similarly, when the gear is switched from P gear to N gear, when the gear is switched from P gear to D gear, when the gear is switched from R gear to P gear, when the gear is switched from R gear to D gear, when the gear is switched from R gear to N gear, when the gear is switched from N gear to P gear, when the gear is switched from N gear to R gear, when the gear is switched from N gear to D gear, when the gear is switched from D gear to P gear, when the gear is switched from D gear to R gear, when the gear is switched from D gear to N gear, the driver needs to drag the icon corresponding to the target gear to the second gear shift area 34 and stay there for a certain time. It can be understood that the preset stay time can be a time set by the user or a time automatically set by the system. After the gear shift is successful, the current gear can be displayed in the second gear shift area 34.

[0068] As shown in FIG3(d), the fourth gear position icon 37 corresponding to all gear positions is displayed on the touch screen, and a second gear shift icon 36 is set. The second gear shift icon 36 and the fourth gear position icon 37 are located on the touch screen. The specific positions of the second gear shift icon 36 and the fourth gear position icon 37 are not limited here, but the second gear shift icon 36 and the fourth gear position icon 37 are no longer in the same area. When switching gears, after dragging the gear shift icon to the target gear position and staying there for a certain period of time, the touch screen sends a signal to the controller, and the gear icon returns to its original position after the gear shift is completed. For example, the current vehicle is in the parking gear P gear, when the driver wants to switch the gear to the reverse gear R gear, it is necessary to drag the second gear shift icon 36 to the gear icon corresponding to the R gear, and make the second gear shift icon 36 stay at the R gear icon for a period of time. After the touch screen detects that the second gear shift icon 36 stays at the R gear icon for more than the preset stay time, it will send the user's operation signal to the controller; similarly, when switching the gear from P gear to N gear, switching the gear from P gear to D gear, switching the gear from R gear to N gear, switching the gear from R gear to P gear, switching the gear from R gear to D gear, switching the gear from N gear to P gear, switching the gear from N gear to R gear, switching the gear from N gear to D gear, switching the gear from D gear to P gear, switching the gear from D gear to R gear, and switching the gear from D gear to N gear, the driver needs to drag the second gear shift icon 36 to the target gear icon and stay there for a certain period of time. It is understandable that the preset dwell time can be a time set by the user or a time automatically set by the system. When the gear shift is successful, the second gear shift icon 36 returns to the original position.

[0069] It is understandable that the size and shape of the gear icon, the size and shape of the shift icon, and the size and location of the shift area may be system defaults or may be set by the user, and are not limited here.

[0070] The touch screen can be a touch screen set separately on the gear shift system, or the touch screen of the vehicle control system can be used. When the touch screen of the vehicle control system is used, the conditions for starting the touch screen can be set, for example: when the brake is pressed, when the conditions for starting the touch screen are met, the gear icon is displayed on the touch screen, and when the conditions are not met, the gear icon disappears, so that the touch screen is maximized; the current gear can also be always displayed, and when the gear shift conditions are not met, the gear icon turns gray, so that the driver cannot operate the touch screen.

[0071] It should be noted that the arrangement and order of the shift icons can be set by the user. Depending on the vehicle model, the number of shift icons can be increased or decreased, and there is no limit on the number of shift icons. There is no limit on the way to drag the shift icons, which can be dragged at will or set by the user. The gear will only be switched when the gear icon passes through a fixed path, for example: when switching gears, it must pass through the N gear.

[0072] In this embodiment, when the operating device includes a touch screen, multiple shifting methods can be set for the user to choose, thereby improving the user experience. The operating device uses a dragging icon method, which is safer than touching or pressing the screen or sliding the screen. At the same time, the touch screen can also be used to display the current gear position, so that the driver can understand the current gear position more intuitively, further improving safety and user experience.

[0073] During driving, the driver can also switch gears by using the shift button. The controller will switch to the corresponding gear when it detects that the shift button has been pressed. Compared with other operating devices, the shift button is more intuitive. The driver can switch gears by pressing the corresponding button to prevent accidental touch.

[0074] On the basis of the above embodiment, when the operating device of the shift system is a touch screen and a shift button, or a shift button and a shift paddle, or a shift paddle, a touch screen and a shift button, the shift button includes a button and a button drive;

[0075] When the key driver detects that the key is pressed, it sends a potential signal corresponding to the key to the controller, so that the controller can obtain a corresponding shift signal according to the potential signal.

[0076] In this embodiment, the gear switching is controlled by the shift button and other operating devices to prevent the gear shifting system from malfunctioning due to a malfunction of a certain operating device, thereby improving the safety and stability of the vehicle. At the same time, the shift button is easy to operate, occupies less space inside the car, and is convenient for users to switch gears, thereby improving the user experience.

[0077] In a specific implementation, after the controller obtains a gear shifting signal based on a signal sent by the operating device, the driving state of the vehicle may not be suitable for switching gears. For example, the vehicle is driving at high speed, and the controller controls the vehicle to switch to R gear. This may cause damage to the vehicle and lead to a traffic accident. Therefore, the vehicle can only be controlled to switch gears when the gear shifting conditions are met.

[0078] Based on the above embodiment, the gear shifting condition includes: the vehicle brake is pressed and the vehicle speed is lower than the speed limit of the vehicle control system and the vehicle is not in a reverse state higher than the speed limit of the vehicle control system.

[0079] It is understandable that when the brake is pressed and the vehicle body is lower than the speed limit of the vehicle control system, the vehicle can switch from the parking gear P gear to the reverse gear R gear, the neutral gear N gear, and the forward gear D gear, or from the reverse gear R gear to the parking gear P gear, the forward gear D gear, and the neutral gear N gear, or from the neutral gear N gear to the parking gear P gear and the reverse gear R gear, or from the forward gear D gear to the parking gear P gear, the reverse gear R gear, and the neutral gear N gear. When the vehicle is not in a reverse state higher than the speed limit of the vehicle control system, the vehicle can switch from the neutral gear N gear to the forward gear D gear, or from the reverse gear R gear to the neutral gear N gear, or from the reverse gear R gear to the neutral gear N gear. For the safety of the vehicle, the controller does not issue a shift command when the shifting conditions are not met.

[0080] In this embodiment, when the gear shifting conditions are met, the controller controls the vehicle to switch gears to avoid vehicle damage or loss of control caused by gear switching, thereby preventing traffic accidents.

[0081] During driving, the driver needs to concentrate on observing the road conditions. If the information of successful gear shifting is not fed back to the driver in time, the driver cannot confirm whether the gear shift is successful or which gear is switched to in time after switching gears, which will cause inconvenience to the driver; if the driver is distracted by looking at the gear, dangerous situations may occur.

[0082] Based on the above embodiment, the feedback device includes a vibration module and a buzzer.

[0083] It is understood that the feedback device is connected to the controller, and when receiving the signal of successful gear shifting sent by the controller, it controls the vibration module to vibrate and the buzzer to sound. The specific reminder method is not limited here. It can be vibrated and sounded after each gear shift; it can also be vibrated after the gear shift, and the buzzer plays the current gear.

[0084] It should be noted that when the operating device includes a touch screen, the touch screen can also be regarded as a part of the feedback device. When the gear is switched, the touch screen will display the current gear for the driver to check.

[0085] In this embodiment, a buzzer and a vibration module are used to remind the driver that the gear shift is successful and to help the driver confirm the current gear position. Compared with other reminder methods, the buzzer alarm and the vibration of the vibration module are more intuitive and not easily ignored, which can improve the safety of the gear shift system and prevent traffic accidents.

[0086] In a specific implementation, the above-mentioned shift system further includes a start button;

[0087] The start button includes a fingerprint detection module and a pressure sensor; it is used to control the vehicle to start when the preset conditions are met, so that the processor can control the vehicle to shift gears;

[0088] The preset conditions are: the pressure applied to the start button is greater than the threshold pressure and the fingerprint information is correct.

[0089] It can be understood that the fingerprint detection module and the pressure sensor are connected to the controller. When the start button is pressed and the pressure received by the start button is greater than the threshold pressure, the fingerprint detection module obtains the fingerprint and compares the obtained fingerprint with the fingerprint stored in the database. If the obtained fingerprint is a fingerprint existing in the database, it is considered to be recognized successfully and the vehicle is controlled to start; if the number of recognition failures exceeds five times, the alarm system is triggered. The alarm system can send information about abnormal vehicle status to the owner through the controller.

[0090] The fingerprint detection module may be an ultrasonic detection module, an optical fingerprint recognition module, or a semiconductor fingerprint recognition module. It should be noted that in order to further improve the safety of the vehicle and prevent theft, the fingerprint recognition module must also have a liveness detection function.

[0091] In this embodiment, a start button is added to the shift system, and the vehicle is started by fingerprint. An alarm is issued after multiple attempts to identify the fingerprint, which is more convenient and faster than the traditional method of starting the vehicle with a key, improving the user experience. The shift operation can only be performed after the vehicle is started, preventing the vehicle from being stolen and further improving the safety of the vehicle.

[0092] In specific implementation, different drivers have different driving modes and prefer different in-car environments, such as air-conditioning temperature, seat posture, music catalog, etc. The vehicle needs to be adjusted every time the vehicle is driven, which brings great inconvenience to the driver.

[0093] On the basis of the above embodiment, the fingerprint detection module detects the user's fingerprint information and sends the fingerprint information to the vehicle control system so that the vehicle control system can provide services for the user according to the fingerprint information.

[0094] It is understandable that the vehicle control system will record the preference information of each user, and when the detected fingerprint information matches the fingerprint in the fingerprint information library, the vehicle will be adjusted according to the user's preferences.

[0095] In this embodiment, the fingerprint detection module detects the user's fingerprint information and sends the fingerprint information to the vehicle control system. The vehicle control system provides services to the user according to the fingerprint information to improve the user's experience.

[0096] The present application also provides a vehicle, including the above-mentioned shifting system. Since each component has been described in detail above, it will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0097] The present embodiment provides a vehicle, including a shifting system, the shifting system including at least two operating devices, a controller, and a feedback device; the operating device generates an operating signal according to the user's operation, and sends the operating signal to the controller; when the user operates the vehicle, the operating device can be selected according to personal preference to improve the user's experience. And because the shifting system has multiple operating devices, when a certain operating device fails, the user can use other operating devices to switch gears, avoid traffic accidents, and improve vehicle safety and reliability. The controller receives the operating signal, and obtains the shifting signal according to the operating signal, and determines whether the preset shifting conditions are met. If so, the vehicle is controlled to shift gears; the feedback device is connected to the controller, and when it detects that the vehicle has successfully shifted gears, it sends a feedback signal to remind the user that the gear has been shifted. It can be seen that the shifting system provided by the present application can improve the safety of the shifting device and avoid traffic accidents.
