[0002] With the development of the new energy industry and intelligent driving technology, automatic charging of vehicles will be a relatively common charging method for future electric vehicles. However, the identification range of the charging device in the charging system, such as an automatic charging robot, is limited and cannot cover the entire parking space of the vehicle. Moreover, due to the too high uncertainty of manual parking, it is impossible to ensure that the vehicle stops within the plug-in range of the automatic charging robot, making it difficult to achieve automatic charging of the vehicle and affecting the user experience.

[0003] Currently, when there are parking space lines, the vehicle can be assisted in positioning with reference to the parking space lines. When there are no parking space lines or the parking space lines are unclear at the place where the automatic charging robot is installed, it is impossible to control the charging robot to charge the vehicle, resulting in difficulty in achieving automatic charging of the vehicle. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To this end, the first object of the present invention is to propose a charging positioning control method. In this method, at least two positioning modules are arranged on a moving slide rail. When the vehicle communicates with the charging system, the vehicle receives the position information sent by the positioning modules, integrates the positioning information to obtain the center line of the moving slide rail, and receives the maximum distance and minimum distance between the retractable charging plug-in assembly of the charging device and the center line in the width direction of the moving slide rail sent by the communication module. According to the maximum distance and minimum distance, the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail is determined. Thus, in the case of no parking space lines or easily damaged parking space lines, the vehicle is assisted in positioning, so that when the vehicle is in the charging plug-in area, the charging device can automatically charge the vehicle.

[0029] Figure 5 is a block diagram of a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0030] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below.

[0031] First, the charging system of an embodiment of the present invention will be described. As Figure 1 shown, it is a schematic diagram of charging a vehicle using a charging system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The charging system includes a movable slide rail 10, a center line 13, at least two positioning modules 11 provided on the movable slide rail, and a charging device 12 that can move along the length direction of the slide rail on the movable slide rail. The charging system communicates with the vehicle to provide position information for the vehicle through the positioning modules 11 when charging the vehicle.

[0032] Specifically, the plugging range of the charging device 12 in the vehicle width direction is approximately ±120 mm. Generally, the width of a small vehicle parking space is 2.5 m, and the width of a vehicle is generally about 1.8 m. The plugging range of the charging plugging component of the charging device 12 in the vehicle width direction cannot cover the entire width of the parking space, resulting in the situation where the driver repeatedly moves the vehicle in order to charge the vehicle with the charging plugging component of the charging device.

[0033] In places with parking space lines, the parking range can be indicated on the reverse image according to the parking space lines. In places without parking space lines or where the parking space lines are damaged, since the charging device is equipped with a moving slide rail in the vehicle length direction, the charging device can cover the charging port provided at the head or tail of the vehicle in the vehicle length direction through the moving slide rail. By installing multiple high-precision positioning modules on the moving slide rail and sending positioning information to the vehicle end, the vehicle end can integrate the information sent by the positioning modules on the moving slide rail into a center line. Based on this line, according to the center line, the dimension of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail, and the telescopic length of the plugging component of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail, the vehicle parking area is determined to prevent the vehicle parking area from affecting the operation of the charging device.

[0034] Based on the above charging system, the charging positioning control method of the embodiments of the present invention will be exemplified below.

[0035] The following combines Figure 2 and Figure 3 to describe the charging positioning control method of the embodiments of the present invention. As Figure 2 shown, the charging positioning control method of the embodiments of the present invention at least includes steps S1 - step S5.

[0036] Step S1, receive the position information sent by at least two positioning modules.

[0037] Among them, the positioning modules are arranged on the moving slide rail. By installing at least two high-precision positioning modules on the moving slide rail, when the vehicle communicates with the charging system, the positioning modules send positioning information to the vehicle end.

[0038] It can be understood that there are at least two positioning modules arranged on the moving slide rail. For example, the number of positioning modules can be two, three, or four. By setting multiple positioning modules to send multiple position information, the integration of multiple position information can be achieved.

[0039] Step S2, determine the center line of the moving slide rail according to the position information.

[0040] In an embodiment, after the vehicle receives the position information sent by at least two positioning modules, the above-mentioned position information is integrated. Since the moving slide rail is a straight line, therefore, by sorting out the positioning information sent by at least two positioning modules, a straight line can be obtained, that is, the center line of the moving slide rail. By determining the center line of the moving slide rail, a reference basis is provided for determining the area where the vehicle parks.

[0041] Step S3, receive the maximum distance and the minimum distance between the retractable charging plug-in component of the charging device and the center line in the width direction of the moving slide rail sent by the communication module.

[0042] Among them, the maximum distance is the distance between the maximum retractable length of the retractable charging plug-in component and the center line, that is, Figure 1 the distance between the center line and the right edge of the vehicle in the width direction; the minimum distance is the distance between the minimum retractable length of the retractable charging plug-in component and the center line.

[0043] In an embodiment, after determining the center line, the maximum distance is determined according to the center line and the maximum retractable length of the retractable charging plug-in component in the width direction of the moving slide rail; the minimum distance is determined according to the center line and the minimum retractable length of the retractable charging plug-in component in the width direction of the moving slide rail.

[0044] Step S4, determine the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail according to the maximum distance and the minimum distance.

[0045] Among them, the charging plug-in area is Figure 1 the area shown. When the charging interface of the vehicle is in the charging plug-in area, the automatic charging device can be used to charge the vehicle.

[0046] In an embodiment, after determining the maximum distance and the minimum distance, the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail can be determined according to the maximum distance and the minimum distance. By determining the charging plug-in area of the vehicle, the vehicle can be assisted in positioning in the case of no parking space lines or easy damage to the parking space lines, so as to realize the charging positioning of the vehicle.

[0047] Step S5, when the charging interface of the vehicle is in the charging plug-in area, send the information satisfying the charging position condition to the vehicle controller.

[0048] In an embodiment, after determining the charging plug-in area of the vehicle, it is judged whether the charging interface of the vehicle is within the charging plug-in area. When the charging interface of the vehicle is in the charging plug-in area, the information satisfying the charging position condition is sent to the vehicle controller so that the charging device, such as an automatic charging machine, can automatically charge the vehicle.

[0049] According to the charging positioning control method of an embodiment of the present invention, by setting at least two positioning modules on a moving slide rail, when a vehicle communicates with a charging system, the vehicle receives the position information sent by the positioning modules, integrates the positioning information to obtain the center line of the moving slide rail, and receives the maximum distance and the minimum distance between the retractable charging plug-in assembly of the charging device and the center line in the width direction of the moving slide rail sent by a communication module. According to the maximum distance and the minimum distance, a charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail is determined. Thus, in the case where there is no parking space line or the parking space line is easily damaged, the vehicle is assisted in positioning, so that when the vehicle is in the charging plug-in area, the charging device can automatically charge the vehicle.

[0050] In some embodiments, receiving the maximum distance and the minimum distance between the retractable charging plug-in assembly of the charging device and the center line in the width direction of the moving slide rail sent by the communication module includes: determining the size of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail, the maximum retractable length of the retractable charging plug-in assembly of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail, and the minimum retractable length of the retractable charging plug-in assembly of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail; dividing the size of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail according to the center line to determine a first size of the charging device above the center line position and a second size of the charging device below the center line position; taking the sum of the second size and the maximum retractable length as the maximum distance; taking the sum of the second size and the minimum retractable length as the minimum distance.

[0051] In an embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the size of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail is the length of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail. After the charging device, such as a charging robot, is installed, the size of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail, the maximum retractable length of the retractable charging plug-in assembly of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail, the minimum retractable length, and the position information of the charging device are input into the background end of the vehicle, so that when the vehicle communicates with the charging system, the above data can be called.

[0052] For example, when the vehicle communicates with the charging system, the vehicle receives the size of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail, the maximum retractable length and the minimum retractable length of the retractable charging plug-in assembly of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail sent by the charging system, and performs data processing according to the received size of the charging device and the retractable length of the retractable charging plug-in assembly of the charging device to determine the parking area of the vehicle.

[0053] Specifically, in an embodiment, as Figure 1As shown in the figure, after determining the size of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail, with the center line as the reference, the size of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail is divided to obtain a first size and a second size. It can be understood that the first size is above the center line and the second size is below the center line, and the size of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail is divided by the center line. After determining the second size, the sum of the second size and the maximum telescopic length of the telescopic charging plug-in component in the width direction of the moving slide rail is used as the maximum distance, and the sum of the second size and the minimum telescopic size of the telescopic charging plug-in component in the width direction of the moving slide rail is used as the determined minimum distance.

[0054] In some embodiments, determining the center line of the moving slide rail according to the position information includes: determining the position points of at least two positioning modules on the moving slide rail according to the position information; connecting the position points to determine the center line of the moving slide rail.

[0055] In an embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, when the vehicle communicates with the charging system, the vehicle receives the positioning information sent by the positioning module. After receiving the positioning information, the positioning information is integrated to determine the position points of the positioning modules on the moving slide rail. Since the moving slide rail is a straight line, the position points of the positioning modules arranged on the moving slide rail are also located on a straight line. Connect the position points of the moving slide rail to determine the center line of the moving slide rail. By determining the center line of the moving slide rail, it provides a basis for determining the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail.

[0056] In some embodiments, determining the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail according to the maximum distance and the minimum distance includes: calculating the difference between the maximum distance and the minimum distance; using the difference as the width of the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail, and using the length of the parking position where the vehicle is located as the length of the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the length direction of the moving slide rail.

[0057] In an embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, after determining the maximum distance and the minimum distance, calculate the difference between the maximum distance and the minimum distance, and use the difference as the width of the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail. It can be understood that by calculating the difference and using the difference as the width of the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail, it is possible to avoid the vehicle's docking from contacting the automatic charging device, which affects the normal movement of the charging device on the moving slide rail and thus affects the automatic charging of the vehicle, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the charging device.

[0058] In some embodiments, before receiving the position information of the moving slide rail sent by at least two positioning modules, it further includes: when the vehicle starts parking, determining the charging system corresponding to the vehicle, and controlling the vehicle to send a charging request instruction to the charging system to establish communication with the charging system.

[0059] In an embodiment, when the vehicle starts parking, the vehicle is positioned according to the background data, the charging system corresponding to the vehicle at the current position of the vehicle is identified, and the corresponding data under the system is called. For example, the telescopic length of the charging plug-in component of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail and the dimension information of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail, and the vehicle is controlled to send a charging request instruction to the charging system to establish communication between the vehicle and the charging system.

[0060] In some embodiments, after determining the parking area of the vehicle in the width direction along the moving slide rail, it further includes: displaying the charging plug-in area on the reverse camera.

[0061] For example, as Figure 1 shown, after determining the parking area of the vehicle in the width direction along the moving slide rail, the charging plug-in area is displayed on the reverse camera to provide a charging reference for the driver.

[0062] Next, with reference to Figure 3 an example of the charging positioning control method according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described. As Figure 3 shown, it is a flowchart of the charging positioning control method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0063] Step S11, receiving the dimension of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail and the telescopic length of the charging plug-in component of the charging device in the width direction of the moving slide rail sent by the charging system.

[0064] Step S12, the vehicle starts parking.

[0065] Step S13, the vehicle determines the corresponding charging system.

[0066] Step S14, calling the data in the charging system and sending a charging request.

[0067] Step S15, when the charging system receives the charging request, controlling the positioning module to send positioning information.

[0068] Step S16, the vehicle receives the positioning information, and determines the charging plug-in area according to the positioning information and the above data.

[0069] Step S17, displaying the charging plug-in area on the reverse camera.

[0070] Step S18, when the vehicle is in the charging plug-in area, controlling the charging device to charge the vehicle.

[0071] According to the charging positioning control method of an embodiment of the present invention, by arranging at least two positioning modules on a moving slide rail, when the vehicle communicates with the charging system, the vehicle receives the position information sent by the positioning modules, integrates the positioning information to obtain the center line of the moving slide rail, and receives the maximum distance and the minimum distance between the retractable charging plug-in component of the charging device and the center line in the width direction of the moving slide rail sent by the communication module, and determines the charging plug-in area of the vehicle in the width direction of the moving slide rail according to the maximum distance and the minimum distance. Thus, when there is no parking space line or the parking space line is easily damaged, the vehicle is assisted in positioning, so that when the vehicle is in the charging plug-in area, the charging device can automatically charge the vehicle.
