Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric vehicle locks, and in particular to a vehicle lock system, an electric vehicle and a control method for the vehicle lock system. Background Art

[0002] The steering lock and the seat lock are two important locks on electric vehicles and have been installed on most electric vehicles. At present, the control mechanisms of the steering lock and the seat lock are relatively independent. Although the two locks can be controlled by a mechanical key, when in use, it is also necessary to press down the lock hole to switch the separation and engagement state of the driving force of the two sets of locks by key rotation.

[0003] With the development of smart electric vehicles, electronic keys are gradually replacing mechanical keys, and the electronic control of various functional components of electric vehicles, including locks, has become a major trend. The relatively independent structures of the above two locks obviously make it difficult to achieve unified electronic control through the same electric drive system. Therefore, the current electronic faucet locks and electronic seat locks are relatively independent and are individually electronically controlled through their respective electric drive systems. However, since the weak current control part of the electric vehicle instrument and other parts is mainly concentrated in the front of the vehicle, if the seat lock is individually electronically controlled, a motor, control panel, etc. must be set at the seat lock, which will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of wiring, adaptation, design, assembly, etc. of the electric vehicle and increase the cost of the electric vehicle.

[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, the faucet lock motion assembly 100 may further include a lock pin mounting portion 140, which is fixed to one end of the motion block 110. The lock pin mounting portion 140 is used to install the faucet lock lock pin 400. The motion rod 120 is fixed to the other end of the motion block 110. The other end of the motion block 110 is also provided with a spring groove, and one end of the faucet lock reset spring 130 is arranged in the spring groove.

[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, the seat lock pulling assembly 200 may also include a mounting rod 240, which is fixed at the middle position of the pulling rod 210 and is perpendicular to the pulling rod 210. One end of the cable mounting block 220 can be installed on the mounting rod 240 by a screw. The other end of the cable mounting block 220 is provided with a cable mounting groove, which is used to install one end of the seat lock unlocking cable 500. One end of the seat lock reset spring 230 is fixed to one end of the cable mounting block 220.

[0035] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the pull rod 210 may be located on one side of the first toggle column 320, and the movement rod 120 may be located on the other side of the first toggle column 320. The first toggle column 320 and the second toggle column 330 are located on the same side of the pull rod 210, and the angle difference between the positions of the first toggle column 320 and the second toggle column 330 is 90°.

[0036] Based on the above structure, if the faucet lock needs to be unlocked, the rotating disk 310 can be controlled to rotate a preset angle along the first direction (the first direction in the illustrated structure is clockwise) to drive the faucet lock movement assembly 100 to move by the first toggle column 320 to toggle the straight section of the movement rod 120, so as to unlock the faucet lock; if the faucet lock needs to be locked, the rotating disk 310 can be controlled to rotate a preset angle along the second direction (the first direction in the illustrated structure is counterclockwise) to push the movement block 110 by the faucet lock reset spring 130 to drive the faucet lock movement assembly 100 to move, so as to lock the faucet lock, wherein the second direction is the opposite direction of the first direction.

[0037] When the steering lock is in the locked state, if the seat lock needs to be unlocked, the rotating disk 310 can be controlled to rotate a preset angle along the second direction, so as to toggle the pulling rod 210 through the first toggle column 320, drive the seat lock pulling assembly 200 to pull the seat lock unlocking cable 500, so as to unlock the seat lock; then, the rotating disk 310 can be controlled to rotate a preset angle along the first direction, so as to push the cable mounting block 220 through the seat lock reset spring 230, drive the seat lock pulling assembly 200 to release the seat lock unlocking cable 500 to reset the seat lock unlocking cable 500, so as to facilitate manual locking of the seat lock, such as manual pressing to lock.

[0038] When the steering lock is in the unlocked state, if the seat lock needs to be unlocked, the rotating disk 310 can be controlled to rotate a preset angle in the first direction, so as to toggle the pulling rod 210 through the second toggle column 330, drive the seat lock pulling assembly 200 to pull the seat lock unlocking cable 500 to unlock the seat lock. At the same time, the first toggle column 320 slides along the arc section of the motion rod 120 to keep the position of the steering lock motion assembly 100 unchanged, that is, the state of the steering lock will not be affected when the seat lock is unlocked; then, the rotating disk 310 is controlled to rotate a preset angle in the second direction, so as to push the cable mounting block 220 through the seat lock reset spring 230, drive the seat lock pulling assembly 200 to release the seat lock unlocking cable 500 to reset the seat lock unlocking cable 500, so as to facilitate manual locking of the seat lock.

[0039] The above-mentioned preset angles can be the same or different, and need to be set according to the positional matching relationship between the pull rod 210, the motion rod 120 and the two toggle posts, and the angle difference between the positions of the two toggle posts, so that the corresponding unlocking and locking purposes can be achieved after the rotation of the rotating disk 310. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned preset angles can all be 90°. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the arc segment of the motion rod 120 can be a 90° arc.

[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned unlocking and locking of the faucet lock and unlocking of the seat lock can be achieved by providing another mechanical matching structure, such as a mechanism that drives the turntable by rotating a key and manually controlling the rotating disk 310.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned unlocking and locking of the faucet lock and unlocking of the seat lock can be achieved by electronic control. Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the vehicle lock system may further include a switch board 600, a motor 700 and a main control board 800. The switch board 600 is provided with a steering lock unlocking state switch 610, a steering lock locking state switch 620, a cushion lock unlocking state switch 630, and a cushion lock locking state switch 640. The steering lock movement assembly 100 may further include a first triggering unit 150, which is provided corresponding to the steering lock unlocking state switch 610 and the steering lock locking state switch 620, so as to trigger the steering lock unlocking state switch 610 when the steering lock is in an unlocking state, and trigger the steering lock locking state switch 620 when the steering lock is in a locked state. The seat lock pulling assembly 200 may further include a second triggering unit 250, which is arranged corresponding to the seat lock unlocking state switch 630 and the seat lock locking state switch 640, so as to trigger the seat lock unlocking state switch 630 when the seat lock is in the unlocking state, and trigger the seat lock locking state switch 640 when the seat lock is in the locked state. The rotating disk 310 is mounted on the output shaft of the motor 700. The main control board 800 is used to obtain the triggering conditions of the faucet lock unlocking state switch 610, the faucet lock locking state switch 620, the seat lock unlocking state switch 630 and the seat lock locking state switch 640, and is used to control the motor 700.

[0042] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the steering lock unlocking state switch 610, the steering lock locking state switch 620, the seat lock unlocking state switch 630, and the seat lock locking state switch 640 are all micro switches.

[0043] The electronic control process is described in detail below with reference to a specific embodiment.

[0044] First of all, it should be noted that, as is known, after the seat lock completes the action, in order to facilitate the user to manually lock it, it is in a reset state, so when controlling the unlocking and locking of the faucet lock, the seat lock has only one state. When controlling the unlocking of the seat lock, the faucet lock has two states, which may be an unlocked state or a locked state.

[0045] The unlocking and locking process of the faucet lock is as follows:

[0046] The main control board 800 sends a faucet lock unlocking command to the motor 700. The motor 700 drives the rotating disk 310 to rotate 90° clockwise according to the faucet lock unlocking command. The first toggle column 320 on the rotating disk 310 toggles the straight section of the motion rod 120, so that the faucet lock motion assembly 100 moves a distance (e.g., 8mm, to ensure that the faucet lock pin 400 is pulled out to unlock) in the direction of withdrawing the faucet lock pin 400 (i.e., the direction of compressing the faucet lock reset spring 130), so that the faucet lock is unlocked. At this time, the first trigger unit 150 switches from pressing the faucet lock locked state switch 620 to pressing the faucet lock unlocked state switch 610. The main control board 800 can know that the faucet lock is switched from the locked state to the unlocked state according to the switch states of the faucet lock locked state switch 620 and the faucet lock unlocked state switch 610.

[0047] The main control board 800 sends a faucet lock locking command to the motor 700. The motor 700 drives the rotating disk 310 to rotate 90° counterclockwise according to the faucet lock locking command. The first toggle column 320 on the rotating disk 310 releases the force acting on the motion rod 120, so that the faucet lock motion assembly 100 moves a distance in the direction of the faucet lock pin 400 insertion under the push of the faucet lock reset spring 130, so that the faucet lock is locked. At this time, the first trigger unit 150 switches from pressing the faucet lock unlocking state switch 610 to pressing the faucet lock locking state switch 620. The main control board 800 can know that the faucet lock is switched from the unlocking state to the locking state according to the switch states of the faucet lock unlocking state switch 610 and the faucet lock locking state switch 620.

[0048] The unlocking process of the control cushion lock is as follows:

[0049] 1. The faucet lock is in the locked state:

[0050] The main control board 800 sends a seat lock unlocking command to the motor 700. The motor 700 drives the rotating disk 310 to rotate 90° counterclockwise according to the seat lock unlocking command. The first toggle column 320 on the rotating disk 310 toggles the pulling rod 210, so that the seat lock pulling assembly 200 moves a certain distance in the direction of pulling the seat lock unlocking cable 500 (i.e., the direction of compressing the seat lock reset spring 230), so that the seat lock is unlocked. At this time, the second triggering part 250 switches from pressing the seat lock locked state switch 640 to pressing the seat lock unlocked state switch 630. The main control board 800 can know that the seat lock is switched from the locked state to the unlocked state according to the switch states of the seat lock locked state switch 640 and the seat lock unlocked state switch 630. After the seat lock is unlocked, that is, the seat lock is switched to the unlocked state, the motor 700 can drive the rotating disk 310 to rotate 90° clockwise, and the first toggle column 320 on the rotating disk 310 releases the force on the pulling rod 210, so that the seat lock pulling assembly 200 moves a distance in the direction of releasing the seat lock unlocking cable 500 under the push of the seat lock reset spring 230, so that the seat lock unlocking cable 500 is reset, which is convenient for the user to manually lock the seat lock. At this time, the second trigger part 250 switches from pressing the seat lock unlocking state switch 630 to pressing the seat lock locking state switch 640, and the main control board 800 can know that the seat lock is switched from the unlocked state to the locked state according to the switch states of the seat lock unlocking state switch 630 and the seat lock locking state switch 640.

[0051] 2. The faucet lock is in unlocked state:

[0052] The main control board 800 sends a seat lock unlocking command to the motor 700. The motor 700 drives the rotating disk 310 to rotate 90° clockwise according to the seat lock unlocking command. The second toggle column 330 on the rotating disk 310 toggles the pulling rod 210, so that the seat lock pulling assembly 200 moves a distance in the direction of pulling the seat lock unlocking cable 500, so that the seat lock is unlocked. At the same time, the first toggle column 320 on the rotating disk 310 slides along the arc section of the moving rod 120, and does not move the faucet lock moving assembly 100, that is, the state of the faucet lock is not affected when the seat lock is unlocked. At this time, the second triggering part 250 switches from pressing the seat lock locking state switch 640 to pressing the seat lock unlocking state switch 630. The main control board 800 can know that the seat lock is switched from the locked state to the unlocked state according to the switch states of the seat lock locking state switch 640 and the seat lock unlocking state switch 630. After the seat lock is unlocked, that is, the seat lock is switched to the unlocked state, the motor 700 can drive the rotating disk 310 to rotate 90° counterclockwise, and the second toggle column 330 on the rotating disk 310 releases the force on the pulling rod 210, so that the seat lock pulling assembly 200, under the push of the seat lock reset spring 230, moves a certain distance in the direction of releasing the seat lock unlocking cable 500, so that the seat lock unlocking cable 500 is reset, which is convenient for the user to manually lock the seat lock. Similarly, at the same time, the first toggle column 320 on the rotating disk 310 slides along the arc section of the motion rod 120, which will not cause the faucet lock motion assembly 100 to move, that is, the state of the faucet lock will not be affected when the seat lock is reset. At this time, the second trigger unit 250 switches from the seat cushion lock unlocking state switch 630 to the seat cushion lock locking state switch 640, and the main control board 800 can know that the seat cushion lock is switched from the unlocking state to the locking state according to the switch states of the seat cushion lock unlocking state switch 630 and the seat cushion lock locking state switch 640.

[0053] In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to realize the electronic control of unlocking and locking, the manual control function of the faucet lock is retained, such as Figures 3 to 7 As shown, the faucet lock movement assembly 100 may also be provided with a manual unlocking pull rod installation portion 160, and the manual unlocking pull rod installation portion 160 is used to install the faucet lock manual unlocking pull rod 900. By manually operating the faucet lock manual unlocking pull rod 900, the faucet lock movement assembly 100 may also be pulled to move a certain distance in the direction of the faucet lock pin 400 being pulled out, so that the faucet lock is unlocked.

[0054] Furthermore, if Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the vehicle lock system of the embodiment of the present invention may further include a mounting frame 1000, a housing 1100 and a seat lock 1200. The steering lock movement assembly 100, the seat lock pulling assembly 200 and the rotary toggle assembly 300 are all mounted on the mounting frame 1000; the steering lock movement assembly 100, the seat lock pulling assembly 200, the rotary toggle assembly 300 and the mounting frame 1000 are all arranged in the housing 1100; the seat lock 1200 is connected to the other end of the seat lock unlocking cable 500.

[0055] According to the vehicle lock system of the embodiment of the present invention, two toggle columns of different heights are arranged on the rotating disk, combined with the arc design of the motion rod and the double-layer design of the motion rod and the pulling rod. Therefore, the steering lock and the seat lock can be uniformly controlled by adjusting the rotation direction of the rotating disk through the same mechanism, and the control of the two locks does not interfere with each other. Not only can the steering lock and the seat lock be conveniently controlled, but also the steering lock and the seat lock can be easily controlled. The seat lock can be given an electronic control function without changing the current mechanical structure of the seat lock, thereby reducing the cost of the electric vehicle.

[0056] Based on the vehicle lock system of the above embodiment, the present invention further provides an electric vehicle.

[0057] The electric vehicle according to the embodiment of the present invention comprises the vehicle lock system according to any one of the above embodiments of the present invention.
