[0031] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that in the drawings or descriptions of the specification, similar or identical parts use the same figure numbers, and the implementation methods not shown or described in the drawings are forms known to ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field. In addition, the directional terms mentioned in the embodiments, such as "upper", "lower", "top", "bottom", "left", "right", "front", "back", etc., are only referenced to the directions of the drawings and are not used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, a passenger temperature zone automatic control method of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0034] S101. Identify whether there are special passengers in the vehicle, including elderly passengers, child passengers and resting passengers.

[0035] The method of identifying special passengers can adopt the relatively mature scene recognition technology in the prior art. In addition, when identifying the type of special passengers, priority is given to identifying resting passengers, that is, passengers of any age group who are in a resting state are defined as resting passengers. The resting state can be when the passenger closes his eyes for a period of time, or when the passenger remains quiet for a period of time, and then the passenger is judged as being in a resting state.

[0036] When no resting passengers are identified, elderly passengers or child passengers are identified. Elderly passengers and child passengers can be defined by age range, and whether the passenger is an elderly passenger or a child passenger can be determined by identifying the age of the passenger. For example, passengers aged 55 or above are defined as elderly passengers, and passengers aged less than 15 are defined as elderly passengers.

[0037] S102: When a special passenger is identified in the vehicle, the automatic air circulation function and the air purification function in the vehicle are turned on.

[0038] It is understandable that after turning on the automatic air circulation function and air purification function in the car, the air environment in the car can be greatly improved, whether it is for elderly passengers, child passengers, or resting passengers, it can improve the comfort level of the passengers themselves.

[0039] S103: Identify the temperature zone where the special passenger is located, and use the temperature zone where the special passenger is located as the target temperature zone, where the temperature zone includes the passenger seat temperature zone and the rear seat temperature zone.

[0040] Similar to the method of identifying whether there is a special passenger in the car in S101, the method of identifying the temperature zone where the special passenger is located in this step can also use scene recognition technology. It can be understood that the passenger mainly refers to the members in the car other than the driver, so the passengers are mainly located in the front passenger seat and the back seat. Therefore, the temperature zone in this embodiment includes the front passenger temperature zone and the back seat temperature zone.

[0041] S104, obtaining the air conditioner working state of the target temperature zone, the air conditioner working state includes cooling state, off state and heating state, and each air conditioner working state corresponds to a preset control strategy.

[0042] The three working states of the air conditioner are adjusted according to the driver's own perception of the ambient temperature. It is understandable that under normal circumstances, when the driver adjusts the air conditioner to the cooling state, it indicates that the ambient temperature is high; when the driver adjusts the air conditioner to the off state, it indicates that the ambient temperature is moderate; when the driver adjusts the air conditioner to the heating state, it indicates that the ambient temperature is low.

[0043] The above control strategies are scripts pre-arranged by the staff, and each air-conditioning working state corresponds to a control strategy.

[0044] When the air conditioner is in cooling state, the control strategy is: adjust the air conditioner temperature of the target temperature zone to the first preset temperature, adjust the air conditioner outlet mode of the target temperature zone to the face blowing mode, adjust the air conditioner outlet mode of the target temperature zone to the avoid blowing mode, and adjust the air conditioner air volume of the target temperature zone to the first preset gear. Among them, the setting range of the first preset temperature is 26℃~28℃, and the preferred embodiment is 26℃; the first preset gear is 2nd gear or 3rd gear, and the preferred embodiment is 3rd gear. Through such settings, the air conditioner can create an environment that is most suitable for special passengers in the cooling state.

[0045] When the air conditioner is in the off state, it is determined whether the special passenger is a resting passenger based on the recognition result in S101. If the special passenger is a resting passenger, the control strategy is: open the window on the sleeping side of the special passenger to the first preset position, and open the sunroof to the second preset position. Among them, the first preset position is preferably the window opened one-third of the way, and the second preset position is the sunroof opened one-third of the way. Through such an arrangement, the air conditioner can create an environment that is most suitable for resting passengers in the cooling state. If the special passenger is not a resting passenger, no control strategy is executed, and only the automatic air circulation function and air purification function in the car are turned on, which has improved the comfort of elderly passengers or child passengers.

[0046] When the air conditioner is in the heating state, the control strategy is: adjust the air conditioner temperature of the standard temperature zone to the second preset temperature, adjust the air conditioner outlet mode of the target temperature zone to the face blowing mode, adjust the air conditioner outlet mode of the target temperature zone to the avoid blowing mode, and adjust the air conditioner air volume of the target temperature zone to the second preset gear. Among them, the setting range of the second preset temperature is 20℃~24℃, and the preferred embodiment is 22℃; the second preset gear is 2nd gear or 3rd gear, and the preferred embodiment is 3rd gear. Through such settings, the air conditioner can create an environment that is most suitable for special passengers in the heating state.

[0047] S105. Execute a control strategy corresponding to the air-conditioning working state according to the air-conditioning working state, so that the target temperature zone is adjusted to an environment suitable for special passengers.

[0048] S106. Inform the special passenger through voice prompt that the target temperature zone has been adjusted to a suitable environment.

[0049] The content of the voice prompt can be set as: Identify that there are people resting in the car / Identify that there are children in the car / Identify that there are elderly people in the car, and adjust the environment to be comfortable for you. By setting this up, the passengers' car experience is improved.

[0050] Embodiment 2

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, a passenger temperature zone automatic control system is provided. The system applies the passenger temperature zone automatic control method in the first embodiment. The system includes a scene recognition module 201, a scene execution module 202 and a voice broadcast module 203.

[0052] The scene recognition module 201 mainly uses the existing scene recognition technology to identify whether there are special passengers in the car. Special passengers include elderly passengers, child passengers and resting passengers. When identifying the types of special passengers, resting passengers are identified first, that is, passengers of any age group who are in a resting state are defined as resting passengers. Among them, the resting state can be that the passenger closes his eyes for a period of time, or the passenger remains quiet for a period of time, and the passenger is judged to be in a resting state. When the resting passenger is not identified, the elderly passenger or the child passenger is identified. The elderly passenger and the child passenger can be defined by age range, and the passenger is judged to be an elderly passenger or a child passenger by identifying the age of the passenger. For example, passengers aged 55 years or more are defined as elderly passengers, and passengers aged less than 15 years are defined as elderly passengers.

[0053] The scene recognition module 201 is also used to identify the temperature zone where the special passenger is located, and use the temperature zone where the special passenger is located as the target temperature zone, which includes the passenger temperature zone and the rear temperature zone.

[0054] The scene execution module 202 is used to obtain the air conditioning working state of the target temperature zone, the air conditioning working state includes cooling state, off state and heating state, and each air conditioning working state corresponds to a preset control strategy; it is also used to turn on the automatic air circulation function and air purification function in the car when a special passenger is identified in the car; it is also used to execute the control strategy corresponding to the air conditioning working state according to the air conditioning working state, so that the target temperature zone is adjusted to an environment suitable for the special passenger.

[0055] The voice announcement module 203 is used to inform the special passenger that the target temperature zone has been adjusted to a suitable environment.

[0056] The above is a detailed introduction to a passenger temperature zone automatic control method and control system provided by the present invention. The description of the specific embodiment is only used to help understand the method and its core idea of ​​the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and modifications can be made to the present invention, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
