[0023] The present disclosure will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present disclosure, but not to limit the present disclosure. In addition, it should be noted that, for the purpose of description, only the parts related to the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, rather than all the structures.

[0024] Embodiment one

[0025] Figure 1 The flowchart of the prompting method applied in the vehicle provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can be applicable to the case that the working states of the calipers in the parking system are acquired, and correct prompting information is displayed for the user through the indicator light according to the working states of the calipers. The method can be executed by the prompting device applied in the vehicle in the embodiments of the present disclosure. The system can be realized in the software and / or hardware mode, and optionally, realized through the electronic device, which can be a mobile terminal, a PC terminal, etc. The device can be configured in the computing device, and also can be configured in the vehicle-mounted computer of the vehicle. The prompting method applied in the vehicle provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure specifically includes the following steps:

[0026] S110, when receiving the parking or starting instruction, determining the working states corresponding to the left caliper and the right caliper.

[0027] The parking instruction can be an instruction sent by the user through triggering the parking button arranged on the vehicle. The parking instruction can be used to instruct the vehicle to park. It can be understood that the electronic parking brake system (EPB) arranged in the vehicle can provide the parking button for the user to control the parking system. When the user needs to park, the parking instruction can be sent by pressing the parking button. The starting instruction can be understood as an instruction triggered by the user when starting. The starting instruction can be used to instruct the vehicle to enter the starting state. The left caliper can be used to slow down, stop or keep the left wheel in the stopped state. Correspondingly, the right caliper can be used to slow down, stop or keep the right wheel in the stopped state. The working state can be understood as the state of the caliper at this time.

[0028] Specifically, when the user needs to park or start the vehicle, the corresponding parking or starting instruction can be sent by triggering the device arranged on the vehicle. When the vehicle receives the parking or starting instruction, the working states corresponding to the left caliper and the right caliper of the vehicle are determined. For example, when the user needs to make the vehicle in the parking state, the corresponding parking instruction can be sent by triggering the parking button. After receiving the parking instruction, the vehicle acquires the working states of the left caliper and the right caliper in real time.

[0029] On the basis of the technical scheme, the receiving parking or starting instruction comprises: when the target vehicle is in a working state, detecting that the brake pad is in a working state, and detecting that the target parking control is triggered, determining that the parking instruction is received; when the target vehicle is in a static state, detecting that the brake pad is in a working state, and detecting that the target parking control is triggered, determining that the starting instruction is received.

[0030] The target vehicle can be understood as a vehicle being driven by the user. The brake pad can be a part for providing a brake function. The target parking control can be a parking button arranged in the vehicle, or a virtual parking button arranged on the vehicle-mounted central control screen, etc. The static state can be understood as a state in which the vehicle is stationary, and can also be understood as a state in which the vehicle is parked or the vehicle is not started.

[0031] Specifically, when the target vehicle is in a working state, i.e., the target vehicle is in a normal driving process, when it is detected that the brake pad in the vehicle is in a working state, i.e., the user steps on the brake pedal of the vehicle at this time, the vehicle is in a deceleration driving state, and when the user triggers the target parking control, it can be determined that the user issues a corresponding parking instruction. When the vehicle is in a static state, when it is detected that the brake pad is in a working state, and the user triggers the target parking control, it can be determined that the user needs to start the vehicle, and it is determined that the starting instruction is received.

[0032] The technical scheme of the embodiment of the present disclosure judges whether the user issues a corresponding parking or starting instruction by comprehensively considering the state of the vehicle and the working state of the brake pad, ensures the correctness of the judgment of the user's intention, and improves the efficiency of receiving the instruction.

[0033] On the basis of the technical scheme, the determination of the working state corresponding to the left side caliper and the right side caliper comprises: when the parking or starting instruction is received, the instruction is transmitted to the main controller and based on the main controller to the auxiliary controller; based on the main controller sending a control instruction to the left side caliper, and based on the auxiliary controller sending a control instruction to the right side caliper, the left side working state of the left side caliper and the right side working state of the right side caliper are determined based on the corresponding control instruction.

[0034] The main controller can be a main controller for controlling the electronic parking brake system. It can be understood that the main controller can directly accept the parking or starting instruction. The auxiliary controller can be understood as a controller for assisting in controlling the electronic parking brake system. It can be understood that the auxiliary controller accepts the parking or starting instruction forwarded by the main control, i.e., the auxiliary controller is connected with the main controller. The control instruction can be understood as an instruction for controlling the caliper to complete the tightening or sending.

[0035] Specifically, after receiving the parking or starting instruction, the target vehicle directly transmits the received instruction to the main controller, and the main controller forwards the instruction to the auxiliary controller. It should be noted that the instruction can be transmitted through the CAN bus arranged on the target vehicle, or can be transmitted based on the pre-set wireless communication module, and then the main controller can send the control instruction to the left caliper, and the auxiliary controller can send the control instruction to the right caliper, and then the working states of the left caliper and the right caliper are obtained according to the corresponding control instructions.

[0036] It should be noted that, as shown in Figure 2 The traditional electronic parking brake system often uses one controller to control the left and right calipers, and the light only has two states of lighting and not lighting (effective and invalid), and the instrument does not need to make a decision according to the invalid combination of the main controller and the auxiliary controller. The redundant electronic parking brake system adopted in the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 3 , uses two controllers (or chips) to control one side caliper respectively, one main controller and one auxiliary controller, and the two controllers monitor each other's state. When the main control is valid, the main controller coordinates the state and instruction of the two calipers, that is, the main control recognizes the EPB switch state and determines that the vehicle meets the parking condition at this time, and the main controller sends a parking request to the left caliper and the auxiliary control at this time, and the two calipers are clamped; when the main control is invalid, the auxiliary control can still control the right caliper to ensure the parking effect.

[0037] S120, based on the working state, control the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light arranged on the instrument panel, to prompt the user of the target vehicle based on the prompt information.

[0038] The instrument panel can be a device for reflecting the working state of each system of the vehicle. It can be understood that the instrument panel can be provided with various indicating devices, such as fuel indicating light, cleaning fluid indicating light, front and rear fog light indicating light, alarm light, etc. Therefore, the parking or starting indicator light can be understood as an indicating light arranged in the instrument panel for indicating the working state of the electronic parking brake system. The prompt information can be light information for prompting the working state of the electronic parking brake system.

[0039] Specifically, according to the working states of the left caliper and the right caliper, the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light arranged on the instrument panel is controlled, so that the user can obtain the correct working state of the electronic parking brake system according to the prompt information.

[0040] On the basis of the technical scheme, the control of the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light on the instrument panel based on the working states comprises: control of the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light on the instrument panel based on the left working state and the right working state.

[0041] The left working state is used to indicate the working state of the left caliper, and the right working state is used to indicate the working state of the right caliper.

[0042] Specifically, the working states of the left caliper and the right caliper are acquired according to the main controller and the auxiliary controller, and then the prompt information to be displayed on the instrument panel is determined according to the working states of the left caliper and the right caliper, that is, the light information of the parking or starting indicator light is controlled.

[0043] For example, when the left caliper and the right caliper are both in the clamping state, the parking indicator light can be lit to prompt the user that the electronic parking brake system is in the working state at this time, and when the left caliper and the right caliper are both in the relaxed state, the starting indicator light can be lit to prompt the user that the electronic parking brake system is not working at this time, and the vehicle can be normally started.

[0044] On the basis of the technical scheme, the control of the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light on the instrument panel based on the working states comprises: in the parking or starting stage, if the left working state and the right working state are both in the first state, the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light on the instrument panel is controlled to be the first prompt light; in the parking or starting stage, if the left working state and the right working state are one in the first state and the other in the second state, the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light on the instrument panel is controlled to be the second prompt light; in the parking or starting stage, if the left working state and the right working state are both in the second state, the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light on the instrument panel is controlled to be the third prompt light.

[0045] The first state and the second state are at least one of the clamping state, the clamping state, the releasing state, and the releasing state, and the light includes at least one of flashing, parking light on, parking light off, starting light on, and starting light off. The first prompt light can be understood as the parking indicator light being in the parking light on state and the starting light being in the starting light off state. The second prompt light can be the parking light being in the flashing state and the starting light being in the starting light off state. The third prompt light can be the parking light being in the off state and the starting light being in the starting light on state.

[0046] Specifically, the prompt information displayed by the current indicator light is determined according to the working states of the left and right calipers in the vehicle. When the working states of the left and right calipers are the first working state, the parking or starting light can be placed in the first prompt light, that is, the parking light is on and the starting light is off. When the working states of the left and right calipers are inconsistent, the parking or starting indicator light can be placed in the second prompt light, that is, the parking light is flashing and the starting light is off. When the working states of the left and right calipers are both in the second state, the light information of the parking or starting indicator light on the instrument panel can be placed in the third prompt light, that is, the parking light is off and the starting light is on.

[0047] For example, when the user issues a parking instruction, the working states of the left and right calipers are clamped, and the prompt information displayed for the user is that the parking light is on and the starting light is off. When the user issues a parking instruction, the working state of one of the left and right calipers is clamped, and the working state of the other is any one of the clamping state, the releasing state, the releasing state, and the releasing state, and the prompt information displayed for the user is that the parking light is flashing and the starting light is off. When the user issues a parking instruction, the working states of the left and right calipers are not in the clamped state, and the prompt information displayed for the user is that the parking light is flashing and the starting light is off. When the user issues a starting instruction, only when the working states of the left and right calipers are both in the releasing state, the user will be displayed that the parking light is off and the starting light is on, that is, when the user needs to start the vehicle, only when the left and right calipers are both released, the user will be prompted that the vehicle can be started at this time, and the working states of other calipers are all displayed to the user that the parking light is flashing and the starting light is off.

[0048] It should be noted that when the vehicle is in the parking state, only when the working states of the left and right calipers are both in the clamped state, it is judged that the vehicle has completed parking, and the parking light is turned on for the user, and in other states, it can be considered that the parking is not completed, and the user is displayed the flashing parking light to indicate that the electronic parking brake system is in the parking process. When the vehicle is in the starting process, only when the working states of the left and right calipers are both in the releasing state, it is judged that the starting condition is met, the starting light is turned on for the user, and the parking light is turned off, and in any other case, the starting condition is not met, and the parking light is in the flashing state, indicating that the electronic parking brake system is in the working process.

[0049] The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure comprehensively judges the prompt information that should be displayed for the user according to the current parking or starting state of the vehicle and the working states of the left and right calipers, so that the user can know the correct working state of the electronic parking brake system according to the parking or starting indicator light on the instrument panel.

[0050] On the basis of the above technical solutions, the control of the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light located on the instrument panel based on the left side working state and the right side working state comprises: in the parking or starting stage, if the left side working state and the right side working state are one first state and the other second state, then the control of the parking or starting indicator light on the instrument panel is one fourth prompt light and the other fifth prompt light.

[0051] Wherein, the fourth prompt light corresponds to the first state, and the fifth prompt light corresponds to the second state.

[0052] Specifically, when the vehicle is in the starting or parking state, if one of the left side calipers is in the clamping state and the other is in the releasing state or is in the releasing state, then the parking light is in the parking light bright state, and the starting light is in the starting light bright state. It can be understood that since the user only needs the vehicle to be in the starting or parking state, in order to ensure that the electronic parking brake system is in a normal working state, the final state of the left and right side calipers will be kept in the same state as much as possible, for example, when the user needs to park, the left side caliper is in the clamping state, and the right side caliper is in the clamping state. The final working state of the left and right calipers must be convergent. Therefore, when the final working state of the left and right side calipers is completely opposite, it indicates that the electronic parking brake system has failed, and therefore the parking or starting indicator light of the vehicle is lit for the user, prompting that the electronic parking brake system has failed.

[0053] It can be understood that, in order to improve the utilization rate of the instrument panel, the parking or starting indicator light can be set under the same light module, the parking light is set as a red light, and the starting light is set as a green light. Therefore, when the electronic parking brake system is working, the parking or starting indicator light shows red light or red light flashing, when the starting condition is met, the parking or starting indicator light shows green light, and when there is a fault, the parking or starting indicator light shows yellow light.

[0054] The technical scheme of the embodiment determines the working state of the left side caliper and the right side caliper corresponding to the parking or starting instruction, and then controls the prompt information of the parking or starting indicator light located on the instrument panel according to the working state of the left side caliper and the right side caliper corresponding to the parking or starting instruction. The technical scheme realizes the control of the prompt information of the indicator light in combination with the states of the left side and right side calipers, so that the user can know the correct working state of the parking system according to the indicator light, the needs of the user are met, and the use experience of the user is improved.
