Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a tire monitoring method, device, vehicle and storage medium. Background Art
[0002] Tires are important power transmission components of automobiles, which directly affect the safety of automobile driving. If a tire bursts during driving, it will directly affect the operational stability of the vehicle and may endanger the personal safety of the driver and passengers. The load capacity and compressive strength of abnormal tires (such as tires with excessive wear and low air pressure) are much lower than those of normal tires. In addition, due to factors such as high temperature, speeding and bumpy roads, abnormal tires are prone to bursting during driving, causing traffic accidents, which may endanger lives in serious cases.
[0003] Based on the above problems, it is necessary to monitor the vehicle tires so that the driver can be reminded in time when there is a safety hazard in the tires. The relevant tire monitoring method monitors the tire pressure of each tire through an active tire pressure monitor, and then displays the monitored real-time tire pressure on the vehicle display screen so that the driver can understand the tire pressure of the vehicle tire, so as to remind the driver in time when the tire pressure is abnormal.
[0004] It can be seen that the tire monitoring method in the related art is only implemented by monitoring the tire pressure through an active tire pressure monitor, and the active tire pressure monitor only monitors the tire pressure. The driver cannot judge whether there is a safety hazard (such as a tire blowout) based on the tire pressure. Summary of the invention

[0033] In the following description, specific details such as specific system structures, technologies, etc. are provided for the purpose of illustration rather than limitation, so as to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the present application. However, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that the present application may also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, devices, circuits, and methods are omitted to prevent unnecessary details from obstructing the description of the present application.
[0034] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, specific embodiments will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0035] Figure 1 This is an application scenario diagram of the tire monitoring method provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, as the vehicle mileage increases, the tire will wear to a certain extent, resulting in a decrease in the depth of the tire pattern. When the vehicle is driving on the road, the tire pressure and temperature will also increase, and the higher the speed, the higher the tire pressure and temperature. When the degree of tire wear, tire pressure and temperature reach a certain range, there is a risk of tire blowout.
[0036] In this embodiment, when the vehicle's driving conditions meet certain conditions, the tire tread depth, tire pressure and / or temperature can be obtained, and whether each tire has a risk of a tire blowout can be determined based on the tire tread depth, tire pressure and / or temperature. Afterwards, the tire blowout risk warning can be issued to the driver through the instrument in front of the vehicle's driving seat. In addition, the above tire blowout risk warning can also be sent to a user terminal bound to the vehicle.
[0037] See also Figure 2 , which shows a flowchart of the implementation of the tire monitoring method provided in the embodiment of the present application, which is described in detail as follows:
[0038] In step 201, a first parameter of each tire of the vehicle under a first driving condition is determined, the first parameter including a current depth of the tire tread.
[0039] Among them, the depth of the tire pattern can reflect the degree of tire wear. When the degree of tire wear is more serious, the risk of tire blowout will increase accordingly. Therefore, the depth of the tire pattern can be used as one of the factors to judge the risk of tire blowout.
[0040] In the embodiment of the present application, in step 201, the current depth of each tire tread can be determined by a variety of methods.
[0041] In some embodiments, the current depth of each tire pattern can be determined based on the rolling radius, initial radius and initial depth of the pattern of each tire under the first driving condition. Generally, after driving, the tire will be worn to a certain extent, which will cause the depth of the pattern to decrease, and the rolling radius of the tire will decrease accordingly. Therefore, based on the rolling radius, initial radius and initial depth of the pattern of the tire, the current depth of each tire pattern can be calculated.
[0042] In some other embodiments, the current depth of each tire pattern can be determined by a tire pattern depth measurement device. For example, under the first driving condition, images of each tire are collected, and the tire pattern is reconstructed in three dimensions to obtain the three-dimensional point coordinates of multiple points on the tire tread and the bottom of the pattern groove. Then, the distance from the tread to the bottom of the pattern groove is calculated based on the above three-dimensional point coordinates to obtain the current depth of the tire pattern.
[0043] In some other embodiments, the current depth of each tire tread can be determined by a neural network model. For example, in a first driving condition, images of each tire are collected, and then the images of each tire are input into a trained neural network model, and the current depth of the tire tread is output.
[0044] The first driving condition may be a factory-set driving condition or a driving condition set by a user according to actual needs. For example, the user sets a driving condition that is more suitable for the user's vehicle based on the actual driving conditions of the vehicle and the driving condition setting suggestions given by the manufacturer. It is understandable that the driving condition set by the user when driving on national highways may be different from the driving condition set when driving on expressways.
[0045] In one scenario, the first driving condition may include: the vehicle speed is within a first preset range, and no manual operation such as ESC (body stability control) action signal, brake pedal signal, accelerator pedal signal, steering wheel input signal, gear shift signal, or ADAS (Advanced Driving Assistance System) braking signal or acceleration signal is detected.
[0046] In another scenario, the first driving condition may include: the vehicle speed is within a first preset range, the steering wheel angle is less than a first threshold, the first direction acceleration is within a second preset range, the second direction acceleration is within a third preset range, and the slope of the current driving road is less than a second threshold. The first direction may be the vehicle driving direction, which is consistent with the road direction. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, for example, when the steering wheel is turned, the vehicle will have acceleration in the second direction.
[0047] In a possible implementation, a correction parameter may be determined according to the first driving condition and the standard driving condition, and the first parameter of each tire may be corrected based on the correction parameter. In a subsequent step, whether the tire has a risk of tire blowout may be determined according to the second parameter and the corrected first parameter.
[0048] It has been verified through experiments that it is more accurate to determine the risk of tire blowout based on the first parameter determined under the standard driving condition. However, it is difficult to ensure long-term driving under the standard driving condition during actual vehicle driving. Therefore, the first parameter can be determined under the first driving condition that is closer to the standard driving condition, and then a correction parameter can be determined based on the first driving condition and the standard driving condition, and the first parameter can be corrected by the correction parameter.
[0049] Exemplarily, the above-mentioned determination of correction parameters based on the first driving condition and the standard driving condition may include: obtaining the influence weight of each parameter in the driving condition on the first parameter; calculating the ratio of each parameter in the first driving condition to that in the standard driving condition; calculating the product of each ratio and the corresponding influence weight to obtain the correction parameter.
[0050] For example, the influence weight of the vehicle speed is x1, the influence weight of the steering wheel angle is x2, the influence weight of the acceleration is x3, the influence weight of the slope of the current driving road is x4, and x1+x2+x3+x4=1. The vehicle speed in the first driving condition is v 11 , the steering wheel angle is ω 11 , the acceleration is a 11 , the slope of the current road is θ 11 ; The vehicle speed in the standard driving condition is v 12 , the steering wheel angle is ω 12 , the acceleration is a 12 , the slope of the current road is θ 12 Then, the correction parameter α can be
[0051] Exemplarily, the correcting the first parameter of each tire based on the correction parameter may include: multiplying the first parameter by the correction parameter to obtain a corrected first parameter.
[0052] In step 202, a second parameter of each tire of the vehicle under a first driving condition is obtained, where the second parameter includes tire pressure and / or temperature.
[0053] Among them, the tire pressure and temperature can reflect the safety of the tire. If the tire pressure and temperature of the tire exceed the safe range, the tire will also be at risk of blowout. Among them, when the tire pressure is low, it is easy to cause the local temperature of the edge point inside the tire to rise too quickly, which may cause the rubber to separate from the tire cord, resulting in a tire blowout. In addition, during the driving process of the vehicle, as the speed increases, the tire pressure and temperature will also increase accordingly, which may also cause a tire blowout. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application uses the tire pressure and / or temperature as one of the factors for judging the risk of tire blowout.
[0054] Exemplarily, the tire pressure and temperature of the tire may be obtained through a tire pressure monitoring unit. For example, the tire pressure monitoring unit may be an active tire pressure detector. The active tire pressure detector may include a tire pressure sensor and a temperature sensor, and the tire pressure is obtained through the tire pressure sensor, and the temperature of the tire is obtained through the temperature sensor.
[0055] After detecting that the current driving condition of the vehicle satisfies the first driving condition and the time since the last tire blowout risk determination exceeds the preset time, the steps of the tire monitoring method can be executed. Alternatively, after detecting that the current driving condition of the vehicle satisfies the first driving condition and the driving distance since the last tire blowout risk determination exceeds the preset distance, the steps of the tire monitoring method can be executed.
[0056] For example, step 201 and step 202 may be performed simultaneously under the first driving condition. Alternatively, step 201 may be performed first and then step 202 under the first driving condition. Alternatively, step 202 may be performed first and then step 201 under the first driving condition. Generally, in a tire blowout risk determination process, the execution time of step 201 and the execution time of step 202 should not be too long apart, otherwise the tire blowout risk determination result may be inaccurate.
[0057] In step 203, it is determined whether each tire has a risk of tire blowout based on the first parameter and the second parameter of each tire.
[0058] In some embodiments, a tire blowout risk range may be pre-set. If the first parameter and the second parameter are within the tire blowout risk range, it is determined that the tire has a tire blowout risk. If the first parameter and the second parameter are not within the tire blowout risk range, it is not determined that the tire has a tire blowout risk.
[0059] In one possible implementation, the above tire blowout risk range may include a tire tread depth range, a tire pressure range, and a tire temperature range. The tire tread depth range, the tire pressure range, and the tire temperature range all represent parameter ranges where the tire has a risk of a blowout.
[0060] In one scenario, if the current depth of the tire tread is within the above tire tread depth range, the tire pressure is within the above tire pressure range, and the tire temperature is within the above tire temperature range, then it is determined that the tire has a risk of puncture. If the current depth of the tire tread is not within the above tire tread depth range, or the tire pressure is not within the above tire pressure range, or the tire temperature is not within the above tire temperature range, then it is not determined that the tire has a risk of puncture.
[0061] In another scenario, if two of the current depth of the tire tread, the tire pressure, and the tire temperature are within corresponding ranges, it can be determined that the tire has a risk of blowout.
[0062] Exemplarily, the tire tread depth range may be 2.5 mm (millimeter) to 1 mm (millimeter), the tire temperature range may be 60° to 90°, and the tire pressure range may be less than 2.3 bar (bar) or greater than 2.5 bar (bar).
[0063] It should be noted that the tire tread depth range, tire pressure range, and tire temperature range given in the above examples are only exemplary, and those skilled in the art may adjust them according to actual conditions. For example, for tires of different manufacturers or models, the above tire tread depth range, tire pressure range, and tire temperature range may be adjusted.
[0064] In some embodiments, the tire blowout risk level of each tire can be determined based on the first parameter and the second parameter of each tire and the preset tire blowout risk range. For example, the tire blowout risk level can be divided into a high risk level, a medium risk level and a low risk level.
[0065] In one scenario, if the current depth of the tire pattern is within the above tire pattern depth range, the tire pressure is within the above tire pressure range, and the tire temperature is within the above tire temperature range, the tire blowout risk level is determined to be a high risk level. If two of the current depth of the tire pattern, the tire pressure, and the tire temperature are within the corresponding range, the tire blowout risk level is determined to be a medium risk level. If one of the current depth of the tire pattern, the tire pressure, and the tire temperature is within the corresponding range, the tire blowout risk level is determined to be a low risk level.
[0066] Different tire blowout risk warning methods can be adopted for different risk levels. For example, for low risk levels, the risk of tire blowout can be displayed once in the vehicle instrument at a first interval (e.g., 60 seconds), and the tire blowout risk information can be sent to the user terminal. For medium risk levels, the risk of tire blowout can be displayed once in the vehicle instrument at a second interval, and the tire blowout risk information can be sent to the user terminal, and the second time (e.g., 30 seconds) is less than the first time (e.g., 60 seconds). For high risk levels, the risk of tire blowout can be displayed once in the vehicle instrument at a third interval, and the tire blowout risk information can be sent to the user terminal, and the third time (e.g., 15 seconds) is less than the second time (e.g., 30 seconds).
[0067] In some embodiments, sound signals can be used as one of the tire blowout risk warning methods. For example, when it is determined that there is a tire blowout risk, a tire blowout risk warning can be issued to the driver by playing a specific audio message, or a tire blowout risk warning can be issued to the driver through the vehicle instrument and the specific audio message at the same time.
[0068] In one implementation, in a tire blowout risk determination process, multiple first parameters may be determined in step 201, and multiple second parameters may be obtained in step 202. Correspondingly, step 203 may include: fitting the multiple first parameters to obtain fitted first parameters; fitting the multiple second parameters to obtain fitted second parameters; and determining whether each tire has a tire blowout risk based on the fitted first parameters and the fitted second parameters. By fitting the multiple first parameters and the multiple second parameters, the accuracy of tire blowout risk determination can be further improved.
[0069] The embodiment of the present application determines whether each tire has a risk of tire blowout through the current depth of each tire tread and the tire pressure and / or temperature of each tire. Compared with the method of monitoring tire pressure only through an active tire pressure monitor in the related art, the embodiment of the present application determines the risk of tire blowout based on the tire pressure and / or temperature of each tire combined with the current depth of each tire tread, and can provide the driver with a more accurate tire blowout risk warning, thereby better ensuring the safety of people and vehicles.
[0070] Figure 3 The following is a flowchart of the tire monitoring method according to an embodiment of the present application, which is described in detail as follows:
[0071] In step 301, when the time condition or the distance condition meets the requirement, the current driving condition of the vehicle is obtained.
[0072] The time condition is satisfied when the time between the current time and the last tire blowout risk determination exceeds a preset time, and the distance condition is satisfied when the driving distance after the last tire blowout risk determination exceeds a preset distance. That is, when the time condition or the distance condition is satisfied, it is necessary to perform tire blowout risk determination for each tire in turn.
[0073] In step 302, it is determined whether the current driving condition meets the first driving condition.
[0074] If the current driving condition meets the first driving condition, step 303 is executed; if the current driving condition does not meet the first driving condition, prepare for the next tire blowout risk determination.
[0075] In step 303, the driving speed of the vehicle under the first driving condition, the angular velocity, tire pressure and temperature of each tire are obtained.
[0076] Exemplarily, the driving speed may be acquired through a GPS unit of a vehicle, or the speed may be acquired through a GPS unit of a user device, without limitation.
[0077] For example, the angular velocity ω of each tire can be calculated by the pulse signal output by the wheel speed sensor. The wheel speed sensor may include a probe and a gear ring synchronized with the wheel, so the pulse signal output by the wheel speed sensor can be collected, and the angular velocity ω of the tire under the first driving condition can be calculated by the formula ω=N*2π / (n*T), where N is the number of pulses, n is a constant related to the gear ring, and T is the time consumed to collect N pulses.
[0078] In addition, for the method of obtaining the tire pressure and temperature of the tire, please refer to the relevant content in step 202, which will not be repeated here.
[0079] In step 304, the rolling radius of each tire is calculated according to the driving speed and the angular velocity of each tire.
[0080] The rolling radius is the actual radius of each tire under the first driving condition. For example, the rolling radius of each tire can be calculated by the formula R=v / ω, where R is the rolling radius, v is the driving speed, and ω is the angular velocity of the tire.
[0081] In some embodiments, during a tire blowout risk determination process, multiple sets of data need to be collected, each set of data including a driving speed and an angular velocity of each tire. A rolling radius is calculated from each set of data, and then the calculated multiple rolling radii are subjected to fitting, weighted summation, and other processing to obtain a processed rolling radius, and each tire corresponds to a processed rolling radius. In this step, multiple rolling radii of each tire are subjected to fitting, weighted summation, and other processing to obtain a more accurate rolling radius, thereby improving the accuracy of tire blowout risk determination in subsequent steps.
[0082] In step 305, the current depth of each tire tread is determined according to the rolling radius of each tire.
[0083] Exemplarily, the current depth of the first tire pattern may be calculated according to the rolling radius and the initial radius of the first tire. The first tire is any tire of the vehicle, and the initial radius is the radius of the first tire when it is not worn under the first driving condition.
[0084] For example, calculate the difference between the rolling radius and the initial radius of the first tire, such as ΔR=R'-R, ΔR is the above difference, R is the rolling radius, and R' is the initial radius. Then, calculate the current depth of the first tire tread based on the above difference, the initial depth, and the safety wear mark depth. For example, D2=D1-TWI-ΔR, D1 is the initial depth of the first tire tread, D2 is the current depth of the first tire tread, and TWI is the safety wear mark depth. Among them, the initial depth is the depth of the pattern when the first tire is not worn, and the safety wear mark depth is the depth corresponding to the safety wear mark protruding from the bottom of the first tire tread.
[0085] In some embodiments, the current depth of each tire tread may be sent to the user terminal to remind the user to replace the tire in time. For example, the user terminal may determine whether the tire needs to be replaced based on the current depth of each tire tread and the model of each tire, and send a tire replacement reminder message to the user when the tire needs to be replaced.
[0086] The initial radius can be obtained through experiments. The initial radius is related to factors such as the vehicle's driving speed and the number of passengers in the vehicle. Therefore, multiple initial radii corresponding to factors such as the vehicle's driving speed and the number of passengers in the vehicle can be set. Exemplarily, an initial radius value table (as shown in Table 1) can be established, and the initial radius value table includes multiple groups of data, each group of data includes the corresponding driving speed, the number of passengers and the initial radius.
[0087] Table 1 Initial radius value table
[0088] Travel speed Number of passengers Initial Radius <![CDATA[v1]]> <![CDATA[l1]]> <![CDATA[R1′]]> <![CDATA[v2]]> <![CDATA[l2]]> <![CDATA[R2′]]> … … … <![CDATA[v m ]]> <![CDATA[l m ]]> <![CDATA[R m ′]]>
[0089] For example, if the vehicle's speed is v1 and the number of passengers is l1, then the corresponding initial radius is R1′; if the vehicle's speed is v m , the number of passengers is l m , then the corresponding initial radius is R m The number of passengers can be determined by sensors installed on the vehicle seats.
[0090] In step 306, it is determined whether each tire has a risk of tire blowout based on the current depth of the tire tread, tire pressure, and temperature of each tire.
[0091] Please refer to the relevant content in step 203, which will not be repeated here.
[0092] In step 307, a tire blowout risk warning is issued to the user via the vehicle instrument and / or the user terminal.
[0093] In the embodiment of the present application, the vehicle's driving speed, the angular velocity of each tire, the tire pressure and the temperature are obtained under the first driving condition. Afterwards, the rolling radius of each tire is calculated based on the driving speed and the angular velocity of each tire, and the rolling radius is compared with the initial radius of the tire to determine the current depth of the tire pattern (also called the remaining depth).

[0096] Figure 4 The structure diagram of the tire monitoring device 400 provided in the embodiment of the present application is shown. For the convenience of description, only the parts related to the embodiment of the present application are shown, which are described in detail as follows:
[0097] like Figure 4 As shown, the tire monitoring device 400 includes a first parameter determination module 401 , a second parameter acquisition module 402 and a tire blowout risk determination module 403 .
[0098] The first parameter determination module 401 is used to determine the first parameter of each tire of the vehicle under the first driving condition, and the first parameter includes the current depth of the tire pattern. The second parameter acquisition module 402 is used to acquire the second parameter of each tire of the vehicle under the first driving condition, and the second parameter includes tire pressure and / or temperature. The tire blowout risk determination module 403 is used to determine whether each tire has a tire blowout risk based on the first parameter and the second parameter of each tire.
[0099] Compared with the method of monitoring tire pressure only by active tire pressure monitor in related art, in the embodiment of the present application, whether there is a risk of tire blowout for each tire is determined according to the current depth of each tire tread and the tire pressure and / or temperature of each tire. Since the risk of tire blowout is determined based on the tire pressure and / or temperature of each tire combined with the current depth of each tire tread, the above tire monitoring method can provide the driver with a more accurate tire blowout risk warning, thereby better ensuring the safety of people and vehicles.
[0100] In a possible implementation, the first parameter determination module 401 may include an acquisition unit, a calculation unit, and a determination unit. The acquisition unit is used to acquire the driving speed of the vehicle and the angular velocity of each tire under the first driving condition; the calculation unit is used to calculate the rolling radius of each tire according to the driving speed and the angular velocity of each tire; and the determination unit is used to determine the current depth of each tire pattern according to the rolling radius of each tire.
[0101] Exemplarily, the above-mentioned determination unit is specifically used to calculate the current depth of the first tire pattern based on the rolling radius and initial radius of the first tire, the first tire is any tire of the vehicle, the rolling radius is the actual radius of the first tire under the first driving condition, and the initial radius is the radius of the first tire when there is no wear under the first driving condition.
[0102] For example, the above-mentioned determination unit is specifically used to: calculate the difference between the rolling radius and the initial radius of the first tire; calculate the current depth of the first tire pattern based on the above-mentioned difference, the initial depth and the safety wear mark depth, the initial depth is the depth of the pattern when the first tire is not worn, and the safety wear mark depth is the depth corresponding to the safety wear mark protruding at the bottom of the first tire pattern.
[0103] In a possible implementation, the tire blowout risk determination module 403 is specifically configured to determine the tire blowout risk level of each tire according to the first parameter, the second parameter and a preset risk parameter range of each tire.
[0104] In a possible implementation, the tire monitoring device 400 may further include a correction module ( Figure 4 The correction module is used to determine the correction parameter according to the first driving condition and the standard driving condition, and to correct the first parameter of each tire based on the correction parameter. The above-mentioned tire blowout risk determination module 403 is specifically used to determine whether each tire has a tire blowout risk according to the second parameter of each tire and the corrected first parameter.
[0105] In a possible implementation, during a tire blowout risk determination process, multiple first parameters are determined and multiple second parameters are obtained. The tire blowout risk determination module 403 is specifically used to determine whether each tire has a tire blowout risk according to the multiple first parameters and multiple second parameters of each tire.
