AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the existing technology, the in-vehicle rest mode relies on battery power when the engine is off, which may lead to battery depletion. In addition, the carbon monoxide concentration increases when idling, resulting in poor air quality in the vehicle. Therefore, it is impossible to simultaneously ensure energy saving and fresh air.

Method used

When the vehicle is turned off, if the oxygen concentration is below the threshold, fresh air is supplied through the battery. If the battery charge is below the threshold, the engine is started to charge the air. During engine start-up, air supply is prohibited to dissipate carbon monoxide. This is combined with the air conditioning system to manage the in-vehicle environment.

Benefits of technology

While ensuring a supply of fresh air, it avoids battery depletion and carbon monoxide ingress, providing a safe and comfortable resting environment, suitable for rest mode control of fuel vehicles.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of in-vehicle modes, and in particular to a control method, device, equipment, computer-readable storage medium, and vehicle for a rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] When drivers feel drowsy, they may want to take a short rest in the car before continuing their journey.

[0003] In existing in-vehicle rest mode technology, the car's battery powers a blower to deliver fresh air into the vehicle. However, relying on battery power when the engine is off can lead to battery depletion, making it difficult to start the vehicle. Furthermore, if the vehicle is kept idling while powered on, the combustion of gasoline causes an increase in carbon monoxide concentration around the stationary vehicle. When the blower delivers fresh air, it can easily introduce carbon monoxide into the vehicle, potentially causing fatalities.

[0004] The current control method for the in-vehicle rest mode cannot guarantee that while supplying fresh air, it will not consume too much battery power or introduce carbon monoxide, making it impossible for drivers to rest comfortably in the vehicle. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To overcome the problems existing in the related technologies, this application provides a control method, device, equipment, and computer-readable storage medium for a rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle, which can solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0007] Received command to activate rest mode;

[0008] In response to the activation command, when the vehicle is off: if it is determined that the oxygen concentration inside the vehicle is lower than a preset oxygen concentration threshold, then power is supplied to the blower of the air conditioning system via the vehicle's battery to deliver outside air into the vehicle via the blower; and, if the remaining charge of the battery is lower than...

[0009] If a preset power threshold is set, the blower is turned off and the vehicle's engine is started to charge the battery 5.

[0010] According to a second aspect of the embodiments of this application, a control device for a rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle is provided, comprising:

[0011] The receiving unit is used to receive the command to activate the rest mode;

[0012] A response unit, configured to respond to the activation command, in the event that the vehicle is turned off: if it is determined that the oxygen concentration inside the vehicle is lower than a preset oxygen concentration threshold, then transmits power to the air conditioning system via the vehicle's battery.

[0013] The system is powered by a blower to deliver outside air into the vehicle; and if the remaining charge of the battery is lower than a preset charge threshold, the blower is turned off and the vehicle's engine is started to charge the battery.

[0014] According to a third aspect of the embodiments of this application, an electronic device is provided, including: a processor and a memory;

[0015] The memory is used to store computer programs;

[0016] The processor is configured to execute, by invoking the computer program, the control method for the rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle as described in the first aspect.

[0017] According to a fourth aspect of the embodiments of this application, a computer-readable storage medium is provided, having a computer program stored thereon, which, when executed by a processor, implements the function for a fuel-powered vehicle as described in the first aspect.

[0018] The control method for the vehicle's rest mode.

[0019] According to a fifth aspect of the embodiments of this application, a vehicle is provided, comprising:

[0020] The detection system is used to detect the oxygen concentration inside the vehicle.

[0021] Storage batteries are used to power the blowers of the air conditioning system.

[0022] 5. The blower of the air conditioning system is used when the oxygen concentration inside the vehicle is lower than a preset oxygen concentration threshold.

[0024] The system control module is used to execute the control method for the rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle as described in the first aspect.

[0025] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of this application may include the following beneficial effects:

[0026] The control method for the rest mode of fuel vehicles proposed in this application can turn on the blower to deliver fresh air when the oxygen concentration inside the vehicle is low, even when the vehicle is turned off. When the remaining battery power is low, the blower is turned off and the engine is turned on to charge the battery, thus avoiding the delivery of carbon monoxide generated during the engine charging process into the vehicle. This allows the driver to rest in the vehicle with peace of mind, without worrying about the danger of a dead battery or accidental inhalation of carbon monoxide.

The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application.

[0038] The terminology used in this application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. The singular forms “a,” “the,” and “the” used in this application and the appended claims are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term “and / or” as used herein refers to and includes any or all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0039] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc., may be used in this application to describe various information, such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of this application, first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, second information may also be referred to as first information. Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "when," "when," or "in response to determination."

[0040] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a control method for a rest mode in fuel-powered vehicles. Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a control method for a rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle according to an embodiment of this application, the method comprising:

[0041] S101: Received command to activate rest mode;

[0042] S102: In response to the start command, when the vehicle is turned off: if it is determined that the oxygen concentration inside the vehicle is lower than a preset oxygen concentration threshold, then power is supplied to the blower of the air conditioning system through the vehicle's battery to deliver outside air into the vehicle through the blower; and if the remaining charge of the battery is lower than a preset charge threshold, then the blower is turned off and the vehicle's engine is started to charge the battery.

[0043] In one embodiment, the preset oxygen concentration threshold can be no less than 19.5%. When the oxygen concentration is below 19.5%, the occupants of the vehicle can clearly perceive the decline in air quality and begin to feel uncomfortable. Therefore, the preset oxygen concentration threshold should be higher than or equal to 19.5% to avoid giving the occupants of the vehicle a bad resting experience.

[0044] In one embodiment, the preset power threshold should be at least as high as the minimum normal starting power, which should be sufficient to start the vehicle engine and charge the battery. The rest mode of this application can prevent the battery from running out of power due to low remaining power, thus preventing the vehicle from starting normally.

[0045] In one embodiment, the preset power threshold can be 50% to leave sufficient remaining power for emergency use.

[0046] In one embodiment, when the vehicle is stationary, starting the engine will maintain an idling mode. In this mode, the exhaust gas emitted by the vehicle may contain carbon monoxide. Therefore, it is necessary to turn off the blower to prevent the blower from bringing toxic carbon monoxide gas into the vehicle while bringing in fresh air from outside, thus creating a safer environment for the occupants to rest.

[0047] In one embodiment, if the rest mode is activated but the vehicle is still running, and the vehicle is stationary at this time, the driver can be reminded to park and turn off the engine to avoid the generation of a large amount of carbon monoxide due to the engine not being turned off during rest, which could then enter the vehicle through various factors and threaten the safety of the occupants.

[0048] The control method for the rest mode of fuel vehicles proposed in this application can promptly deliver fresh air into the vehicle when the engine is off, and prevent the battery from being depleted due to prolonged use. It can automatically start the engine to charge the battery when the battery charge is low, while preventing carbon monoxide from being delivered into the vehicle during the charging process, so that the occupants can rest safely and comfortably for a long time in this rest mode.

[0049] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a control method for a rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle according to an embodiment of this application, the method further comprising:

[0050] S201: When the engine start-up time is a first duration, the blower is prohibited from being turned on for a second duration after the engine is turned off; wherein the carbon monoxide generated by the engine during the first duration can dissipate during the second duration.

[0051] In one embodiment, if the engine start-up time is a first duration, the blower can be turned on to deliver fresh air into the vehicle only after at least a second duration. This is because when the engine starts to charge the battery, exhaust gases are emitted into the air around the vehicle, and these exhaust gases may contain toxic carbon monoxide. Since the vehicle is stationary, to avoid sending air containing carbon monoxide into the vehicle when the blower is started, the blower can be kept off and prohibited from being turned on during the second duration, so that the carbon monoxide around the vehicle can be effectively dissipated.

[0052] In one embodiment, the first duration and the second duration can be preset, or the vehicle can determine the first duration and the second duration by estimating the dissipation rate of carbon monoxide gas around the vehicle body based on the environment, so that the vehicle can have different first duration and second duration in different environments, avoiding the situation where the vehicle is in a low-lying, windless place and the carbon monoxide gas dissipates very slowly, and the blower is turned on to send air into the vehicle before the carbon monoxide gas has completely dissipated.

[0053] In one embodiment, the actual second waiting time of the vehicle in rest mode can be greater than the preset or vehicle-determined second waiting time. That is, the vehicle can wait for a longer time than the theoretically designed second waiting time to ensure that carbon monoxide gas is fully dissipated and that carbon monoxide residue is not caused by environmental factors and thus sent into the vehicle.

[0054] In one embodiment, the first duration and the second duration can be the sum of multiple durations, but it must be ensured that the carbon monoxide concentration in the air around the vehicle body meets the regulations after the second duration. For example, if the preset first duration is 15 minutes and the preset second duration is 25 minutes, then within the 40-minute interval between two blower starts, the vehicle can first start the engine for 10 minutes, then turn off the engine, wait for 10 minutes for the second duration to allow the carbon monoxide to dissipate, then start the engine for 5 minutes, then turn off the engine and wait for 15 minutes for the second duration to allow all the generated carbon monoxide to dissipate fully. By segmenting the first duration and the second duration, in some cases it is beneficial for the vehicle to adjust the first duration and / or the second duration according to the detected carbon monoxide concentration around the vehicle body, while avoiding the noise of the engine starting for too long, which would disturb the resting people in the vehicle, so as to better achieve the comfortable and safe rest of the people in the vehicle.

[0055] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a control method for a rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle according to an embodiment of this application, the method further comprising:

[0056] S301: The third duration is determined based on the number of people in the vehicle and the vehicle's volume; wherein, in a closed vehicle environment, the duration required for the oxygen concentration inside the vehicle to decrease from the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere to the preset oxygen concentration threshold is the third duration.

[0057] S302: Determine the first duration and the second duration based on the environment in which the vehicle is located and the third duration, and the sum of the first duration and the second duration shall not exceed the third duration.

[0058] In one embodiment, the third duration can be determined based on the number of people in the vehicle, the volume of the vehicle, etc. For example, the volume of the interior of a typical family car is about 3.375 cubic meters, the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere is about 21%, and the oxygen in the car is maintained at a preset oxygen concentration threshold of 19.5% or higher. If there is only one adult in the car at this time, and the adult consumes about 800-1200 ml of oxygen per minute, then the third duration can be calculated and determined. After the car is filled with fresh air, it can maintain good air quality for about 40 minutes.

[0059] In one embodiment, since the fresh air inside the vehicle is maintained for a maximum of a third duration, the total time for turning off the blower to start the engine to charge the battery and waiting for the generated carbon monoxide to dissipate should not exceed the third duration. Generally, to avoid the oxygen concentration inside the vehicle not reaching the oxygen concentration in the fresh air when the engine is started to charge the battery, the sum of the first duration and the second duration should be smaller.

[0060] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a control method for a rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle according to an embodiment of this application, the method further comprising:

[0061] S401: If the interior temperature is determined to be outside the preset temperature range, the air conditioning system is activated using power supplied by the battery; or...

[0062] S402: If it is determined that the interior temperature is not within the preset temperature range, turn off the blower and start the engine to turn on the air conditioning system.

[0063] In essence, depending on the vehicle model, the air conditioning system can be turned on either by battery power alone or after the engine is started. When the air conditioning system is turned on by battery power, it does not produce carbon monoxide, so it can operate in conjunction with the blower, supplying fresh air while running. However, when the air conditioning system is turned on by the engine, the engine will inevitably emit exhaust gases that produce carbon monoxide. Therefore, when using the air conditioning system in this case, it is essential to prevent the blower from bringing outside air into the cabin; the air conditioning system should use the recirculation mode to avoid carbon monoxide entering the vehicle.

[0064] In one embodiment, when the air conditioning system is turned on by starting the engine, if the interior temperature is not within the preset temperature range, the air conditioning system is turned on. When the interior temperature returns to the preset temperature range through the air conditioning system, the vehicle is turned off and the engine is shut off to prevent the continued generation of carbon monoxide gas.

[0065] In one embodiment, the blower can be turned off when the oxygen concentration inside the vehicle is determined to be equal to the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere, in order to reduce the power consumption of the battery and avoid battery depletion.

[0066] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a control method for a rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle according to an embodiment of this application, the method further comprising:

[0067] S501: If it is determined that the carbon monoxide concentration inside the vehicle is higher than the first preset carbon monoxide concentration threshold, an alarm will be issued to remind the occupants of the vehicle.

[0068] S502: When it is determined that the carbon monoxide concentration inside the vehicle is higher than the first preset carbon monoxide concentration threshold and the carbon monoxide concentration outside the vehicle is lower than the second preset carbon monoxide concentration threshold, the blower is turned on to send outside air into the vehicle.

[0069] In one embodiment, the carbon monoxide concentration inside the vehicle may exceed the first preset carbon monoxide concentration threshold due to reasons such as carbon monoxide leaking into the vehicle or the carbon monoxide not completely dissipating in a short second period. In this case, an alarm is issued to the occupants of the vehicle to alert them to the abnormality and prompt them to check the abnormal increase in carbon monoxide.

[0070] Furthermore, if the concentration of carbon monoxide outside the vehicle is detected to be lower than the second preset carbon monoxide concentration threshold, that is, the amount of carbon monoxide outside the vehicle is low and the air quality is good, then the blower is turned on to send fresh air from outside into the vehicle in order to reduce the concentration of carbon monoxide gas inside the vehicle.

[0071] In one embodiment, during the rest mode, the occupants of the vehicle may be reminded every fourth hour to prevent the driver from resting in the vehicle for too long and causing an accident.

[0072] Corresponding to the method embodiments of this application, this application also provides corresponding embodiments of a control device for a rest mode of a fuel-powered vehicle.

[0102] For the device embodiments, since they basically correspond to the method embodiments, the relevant descriptions can be found in the descriptions of the method embodiments. The device embodiments described above are merely illustrative. The units described as separate components may or may not be physically separate, and the components shown as units may or may not be physical units; that is, they may be located in one place or distributed across multiple network units. Some or all of the modules can be selected to achieve the purpose of this application according to actual needs. Those skilled in the art can understand and implement this without any creative effort.

[0103] In the 1990s, improvements to a technology could be clearly distinguished as either hardware improvements (e.g., improvements to the circuit structure of diodes, transistors, switches, etc.) or software improvements (improvements to the methodology). However, with technological advancements, many improvements to the methodology today can be considered direct improvements to the hardware circuit structure. Designers almost always obtain the corresponding hardware circuit structure by programming the improved methodology into the hardware circuit. Therefore, it cannot be said that an improvement to the methodology cannot be implemented using a hardware entity module. Those skilled in the art should also understand that by simply performing some logic programming on the methodology using the aforementioned hardware description languages ​​and programming it into an integrated circuit, it is easy to obtain the hardware circuit that implements the logical methodology.

[0104] The controller can be implemented in any suitable manner. Those skilled in the art will recognize that, besides implementing the controller as purely computer-readable program code, the same functionality can be achieved by logically programming the method steps, making the controller function as logic gates, switches, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and embedded microcontrollers. Therefore, such a controller can be considered a hardware component, and the devices included within it for implementing various functions can also be considered structures within that hardware component. Alternatively, the devices for implementing various functions can be considered both software modules implementing the method and structures within a hardware component.

[0105] The systems, devices, modules, or units described in the above embodiments can be implemented by computer chips or physical entities, or by products with certain functions. A typical implementation device is a server system. Of course, this application does not exclude the possibility that, with the future development of computer technology, the computer implementing the functions of the above embodiments can be, for example, a personal computer, a laptop computer, an in-vehicle human-machine interaction device, a cellular phone, a camera phone, a smartphone, a personal digital assistant, a media player, a navigation device, an email device, a game console, a tablet computer, a wearable device, or any combination of these devices.

[0106] While one or more embodiments of this application provide the method operation steps as described in the embodiments or flowcharts, more or fewer operation steps may be included based on conventional or non-inventive means. The order of steps listed in the embodiments is merely one possible order of execution among many steps and does not represent the only possible order. In actual device or end product execution, the methods shown in the embodiments or drawings may be executed sequentially or in parallel (e.g., in a parallel processor or multi-threaded processing environment, or even a distributed data processing environment). The terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, product, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, product, or apparatus. Without further limitations, the presence of other identical or equivalent elements in the process, method, product, or apparatus that includes said elements is not excluded. For example, the use of terms such as "first," "second," etc., is used to denote names and does not indicate any particular order.

[0107] For ease of description, the above devices are described in terms of function, divided into various modules. Of course, when implementing one or more of this application, the functions of each module can be implemented in one or more software and / or hardware, or a module that performs the same function can be implemented by a combination of multiple sub-modules or sub-units. The device embodiments described above are merely illustrative. For example, the division of units is only a logical functional division; in actual implementation, there may be other division methods. For example, multiple units or components may be combined or integrated into another system, or some features may be ignored or not executed. Furthermore, the displayed or discussed mutual couplings, direct couplings, or communication connections may be through some interfaces; indirect couplings or communication connections between devices or units may be electrical, mechanical, or other forms.

It will be understood that each block of the flowchart illustrations and / or block diagrams, and combinations of blocks in the flowchart illustrations and / or block diagrams, can be implemented by computer program instructions. These computer program instructions can be provided to a processor of a general-purpose computer, special-purpose computer, embedded processor, or other programmable data processing apparatus to produce a machine, such that the instructions, which execute via the processor of the computer or other programmable data processing apparatus, generate instructions for implementing the flowchart...
