Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of vehicle sunshade, and in particular relates to a light-sensing automatic sunshade control method. Background Art

[0002] When passengers are riding in a vehicle on a sunny day and the sun is strong through the window next to them, they often manually pull down the curtains to avoid the strong sunlight. This reliance on manual sunshade operation by passengers results in a poor driving experience. Therefore, finding a way to automatically achieve sunshade without requiring manual operation by passengers, thereby improving the passenger experience, has become a pressing technical challenge facing those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a light-sensing automatic sunshade control method to solve the above-mentioned technical problems in the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] A light-sensing automatic sunshade control method comprises the following steps:

[0006] Step S1: After the vehicle is started, a first light sensor disposed on the left window of the vehicle detects the light intensity on the left window of the vehicle in real time, and a second light sensor disposed on the right window of the vehicle detects the light intensity on the right window of the vehicle in real time;

[0007] Step S2: The first light sensor and the second light sensor respectively transmit the detected light intensity to the vehicle controller in real time;

[0008] Step S3: The vehicle controller compares the received light sensitivity value with a set light sensitivity threshold. If the light sensitivity value is greater than the set light sensitivity threshold, the vehicle controller sends a window closing instruction to the curtain controller of the corresponding window. After receiving the window closing instruction, the curtain controller controls the curtain on the window to automatically close to achieve sunshade. If the light sensitivity value is less than the set light sensitivity threshold, the vehicle controller sends a window opening instruction to the curtain controller of the corresponding window. After receiving the window opening instruction, the curtain controller controls the curtain on the window to automatically open.

[0009] Preferably, after the curtain controller receives the window closing instruction and before controlling the curtain to close automatically, the curtain controller sends a window closing confirmation reminder to the passenger. Only after the passenger confirms to close the window can the curtain controller control the curtain to close automatically.

[0010] Preferably, the window closing confirmation reminder issued by the curtain controller to the passenger is a voice reminder, which is "The current sunlight is strong, do you need to close the curtains?" If the passenger replies "yes", the curtain controller will control the curtains to close automatically; if the passenger replies "no", the curtains will remain open.

[0011] Preferably, after the curtain controller receives the window opening instruction and before controlling the curtains to open automatically, the curtain controller sends a window opening confirmation reminder to the passenger. Only after the passenger confirms the window opening can the curtain controller control the curtains to open automatically.

[0012] Preferably, the window opening confirmation reminder issued by the curtain controller to the passenger is a voice reminder, which is "The current sunlight is not strong, do you need to open the curtains?" If the passenger replies "yes", the curtain controller will control the curtains to open automatically; if the passenger replies "no", the curtains will remain closed.

[0013] Preferably, it also includes: when the vehicle is running, a third light sensor arranged on the front windshield detects the light sensitivity on the front windshield in real time, and transmits the light sensitivity to the vehicle controller in real time. After receiving the light sensitivity signal, the vehicle controller compares the light sensitivity value with the set light sensitivity threshold. If the light sensitivity value is greater than the set light sensitivity threshold, the vehicle controller sends an open soft board instruction to the soft board controller. After receiving the open soft board instruction, the soft board controller controls the retractable soft board located on the co-pilot seat of the vehicle to automatically open, thereby shading the legs of the passenger on the co-pilot seat; if the light sensitivity value is less than the set light sensitivity threshold, the vehicle controller sends a close soft board instruction to the soft board controller. After receiving the close soft board instruction, the soft board controller controls the retractable soft board to automatically close.

[0014] Preferably, when the retractable soft board is in an open state and the soft board controller detects that the retractable soft board is hit, the soft board controller controls the retractable soft board to automatically close.

[0015] Preferably, after the soft board controller receives the command to open the soft board, before controlling the retractable soft board to automatically open, the soft board controller sends a panel opening confirmation reminder to the passenger. Only after the passenger confirms to open the retractable soft board can the soft board controller control the retractable soft board to automatically open; after the soft board controller receives the command to close the soft board, before controlling the retractable soft board to automatically close, the soft board controller sends a panel closing confirmation reminder to the passenger. Only after the passenger confirms to close the retractable soft board can the soft board controller control the retractable soft board to automatically close.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0017] The light-sensing automatic sunshade control method of the present invention, when in use, the first light sensor and the second light sensor respectively detect the light sensitivity on the left and right windows of the vehicle and transmit them to the vehicle controller, the vehicle controller compares the received light sensitivity value with the set light sensitivity threshold, and then sends a window closing or window opening instruction to the curtain controller of the corresponding window based on the comparison result, so that the curtain on the window is automatically opened or closed, thereby realizing automatic sunshade without the need for passengers to manually perform sunshade, thereby better improving the passengers' car-using experience, and also effectively improving the intelligence level of the vehicle. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] In order to more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the present application or the technical solutions in the prior art, the following will briefly introduce the drawings required for use in the embodiments, and further describe the specific embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0019] Figure 1 This is a control flow diagram of the light-sensing automatic sunshade control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the solution will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a light-sensing automatic sunshade control method, which includes the following steps:

[0022] Step S1: After the vehicle is started, a first light sensor disposed on the left window of the vehicle detects the light intensity on the left window of the vehicle in real time, and a second light sensor disposed on the right window of the vehicle detects the light intensity on the right window of the vehicle in real time;

[0023] Step S2: The first light sensor and the second light sensor respectively transmit the detected light intensity to the vehicle controller in real time;

[0024] Step S3: The vehicle controller compares the received light sensitivity value with a set light sensitivity threshold. If the light sensitivity value is greater than the set light sensitivity threshold, the vehicle controller sends a window closing instruction to the curtain controller of the corresponding window. After receiving the window closing instruction, the curtain controller controls the curtain on the window to automatically close to achieve sunshade. If the light sensitivity value is less than the set light sensitivity threshold, the vehicle controller sends a window opening instruction to the curtain controller of the corresponding window. After receiving the window opening instruction, the curtain controller controls the curtain on the window to automatically open.

[0025] The light-sensing automatic sunshade control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, when in use, the first light sensor and the second light sensor respectively detect the light sensitivity on the left window and the right window of the vehicle and transmit them to the vehicle controller, and the vehicle controller compares the received light sensitivity value with the set light sensitivity threshold, and then sends a window closing or window opening instruction to the curtain controller of the corresponding window based on the comparison result, so that the curtain on the window is automatically opened or closed, thereby realizing automatic sunshade without the need for passengers to manually shade the window, thereby better improving the passengers' car experience, and also effectively improving the intelligence level of the vehicle.

[0026] It is understood that under normal circumstances, the curtains are in the open state after the vehicle is parked. When the vehicle is just started and the outside sunlight is not strong, the curtain controller will receive a window opening command. At this time, the curtain controller detects that the curtains are already in the open state and will no longer control the curtain movement. Since a car or bus has more than one left window and right window, it is preferred that the first light sensor is set on any left window, rather than on every left window. The second light sensor is set on any right window. The curtain controller corresponding to the curtain on the left window can control the curtain on each left window separately, and the curtain controller corresponding to the curtain on the right window can control the curtain on each right window separately.

[0027] Furthermore, after the curtain controller receives the window closing instruction and before controlling the curtain to close automatically, the curtain controller sends a window closing confirmation reminder to the passenger. Only after the passenger confirms to close the window can the curtain controller control the curtain to close automatically.

[0028] Preferably, the curtain controller can provide a voice prompt to the passenger to confirm window closing, such as "The sun is strong now, do you want to close the curtains?" If the passenger replies "Yes," the curtain controller will automatically close the curtains; if the passenger replies "No," the curtains remain open. This solution takes into account the passenger's own perception of light and can decide whether to close the curtains based on the passenger's wishes, thereby better meeting the needs of different passengers and further improving the vehicle experience for different passengers.

[0029] Furthermore, after the curtain controller receives the window opening instruction, before controlling the curtain to open automatically, the curtain controller sends a window opening confirmation reminder to the passenger. Only after the passenger confirms the window opening can the curtain controller control the curtain to open automatically.

[0030] Preferably, the curtain controller sends a voice reminder to the passenger to confirm whether to open the window, which is "The sunlight is not strong at the moment. Do you need to open the curtains?" If the passenger replies "Yes," the curtain controller will control the curtains to open automatically; if the passenger replies "No," the curtains will remain closed. This solution takes into account the passenger's own perception of light and can decide whether to open the curtains based on the passenger's wishes, thereby better meeting the needs of different passengers and further improving the car-using experience of different passengers. It is understandable that after the passenger replies "No," the curtain controller can send a confirmation reminder to the passenger again at a certain interval, so as to promptly meet the passenger's needs and close or open the curtains in a timely manner.

[0031] Furthermore, the light-sensitive automatic sunshade control method also includes: when the vehicle is running, a third light sensor arranged on the front windshield detects the light sensitivity on the front windshield in real time, and transmits the light sensitivity to the vehicle controller in real time. After receiving the light sensitivity signal, the vehicle controller compares the light sensitivity value with the set light sensitivity threshold. If the light sensitivity value is greater than the set light sensitivity threshold, the vehicle controller sends an open soft board instruction to the soft board controller. After receiving the open soft board instruction, the soft board controller controls the retractable soft board located on the co-pilot seat of the vehicle to automatically open, thereby shading the legs of the passenger on the co-pilot seat; if the light sensitivity value is less than the set light sensitivity threshold, the vehicle controller sends a close soft board instruction to the soft board controller. After receiving the close soft board instruction, the soft board controller controls the retractable soft board to automatically close.

[0032] When a passenger is sitting in the front passenger seat, sunlight will shine on the passenger's legs through the front windshield, especially in the summer, even if the air conditioner in the car is turned on or the passenger's sitting posture is adjusted, the sunlight will still shine on the passenger's legs. To avoid strong light exposure, the passenger in the front passenger seat needs to use clothes or other things to block the light to prevent the strong light from damaging the skin of the passenger in the front passenger seat, especially women. With the above solution, the third light sensor detects the light intensity on the front windshield of the vehicle and transmits it to the vehicle controller. The vehicle controller compares the received light intensity value with the set light intensity threshold, and then sends an open or close soft board instruction to the soft board controller, so that the retractable soft board located at the front passenger seat automatically opens or closes, thereby realizing automatic sunshade for the passenger's legs in the front passenger seat without the passenger having to manually take off clothes for sunshade, thereby improving the passenger's car experience and effectively improving the vehicle's intelligence level.

[0033] It can be understood that the light sensitivity threshold value set in the vehicle controller for comparison with the light sensitivity value transmitted by the third light sensor can be the same as or different from the light sensitivity threshold value in the above step S3; the light sensitivity threshold value can be obtained through experiments; the retractable soft board can be installed on the front panel in front of the co-pilot seat or on the right front door; this solution is particularly suitable for the co-pilot seat of a car.

[0034] Furthermore, when the retractable soft board is in the open state and the soft board controller detects that the retractable soft board is hit, the soft board controller will control the retractable soft board to automatically close, thereby better preventing the retractable soft board from causing harm to members.

[0035] Specifically, after the soft board controller receives the command to open the soft board, before controlling the retractable soft board to automatically open, the soft board controller sends a panel opening confirmation reminder to the passenger. Only after the passenger confirms to open the retractable soft board can the soft board controller control the retractable soft board to automatically open; after the soft board controller receives the command to close the soft board, before controlling the retractable soft board to automatically close, the soft board controller sends a panel closing confirmation reminder to the passenger. Only after the passenger confirms to close the retractable soft board can the soft board controller control the retractable soft board to automatically close.

[0036] Preferably, the soft panel controller issues a voice reminder to the passenger to confirm opening the panel, which may be something like "The sunlight is currently strong. Do you need to open the soft panel?" If the passenger replies "Yes," the soft panel controller will control the retractable soft panel to automatically open, i.e., extend the panel; if the passenger replies "No," the retractable soft panel will remain unchanged. The soft panel controller issues a voice reminder to the passenger to confirm closing the panel, which may be something like "The sunlight is currently weak. Do you need to close the soft panel?" If the passenger replies "Yes," the soft panel controller will control the retractable soft panel to automatically close, i.e., retract the panel; if the passenger replies "No," the retractable soft panel will remain opened. This solution takes into account the passenger's own perception of light and can decide whether to open or close the retractable soft panel based on the passenger's wishes, thereby better meeting the needs of different passengers and further improving the vehicle-using experience of different passengers.

[0037] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention. Moreover, after reading the contents of the present invention, relevant technical personnel in this field can make various changes or modifications to the present invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the claims attached to this application.
