[0043] The trunk cover provided in this application embodiment includes a cover, a rocker arm, and a drive component. The rocker arm includes an abutment section and a drive section. In use, the trunk cover provided in this application embodiment is installed inside the vehicle to separate the spare tire and storage space. The cover can bear pressure. When the vehicle is parked, and the user needs to raise the cover, such as for picnics or other scenarios where the user needs to lift objects through the cover, the drive component can be activated. The drive component can drive the rocker arm to swing, thereby moving the cover. As the drive section of the rocker arm swings, the drive section of the rocker arm will be in a vertical position.

[0054] To better understand the above technical solutions, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments of this application and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, rather than limitations on the technical solutions of this application. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of this application and the technical features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0055] like Figure 1 As shown, where Figure 1The trunk cover with the solid line in the middle is in the retracted state, and the trunk cover with the dashed line is in the raised state. According to the first aspect of the embodiments of this application, a trunk cover is provided, including: a cover plate 110; a rocker arm 120, one end of which is hinged to the cover plate 110; and a drive member 130, which is connected to the rocker arm 120 and is used to drive the rocker arm 120 to swing. The rocker arm 120 includes an abutment section 121 and a drive section 122. When the drive section 122 is in a vertical state, at least a portion of the cover plate 110 abuts against the abutment section 121.

[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, the trunk cover provided in this embodiment includes a cover 110, a rocker arm 120, and a drive member 130. The rocker arm 120 includes an abutment section 121 and a drive section 122. In use, the trunk cover provided in this embodiment is used to separate the vehicle's spare tire and storage space. The cover 110 can bear pressure.

[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, with the trunk cover provided in this embodiment, when the vehicle is parked and the user needs the cover 110 to be raised, such as for picnics or other scenarios where the user needs to lift objects through the cover 110, the drive unit 130 can be activated. The drive unit 130 can drive the rocker arm 120 to swing, which in turn moves the cover 110. As the drive section 122 of the rocker arm 120 swings, the drive section 122 of the rocker arm 120 will be in a vertical state. In this case, the cover 110 can abut against the abutment section 121. The verticality of the drive section 122 can support the cover 110 and increase its height. The abutment section 121 allows the cover 110 to be securely fixed on the abutment section 121, so that the side of the cover 110 away from the rocker arm 120 can be used by the user to place items.

[0058] When the user needs to store the trunk cover 110, the drive component 130 can be reversed. The drive component 130 can drive the drive section 122 to rotate, so that the drive section 122 is in a horizontal or nearly horizontal state. Based on this, the cover 110 will also move with the rocker arm 120. The cover 110 can be detached from the abutment section 121 and laid in the trunk of the vehicle under the limiting effect of the trunk.

[0059] The trunk cover provided in this application embodiment can have at least two working states. It can be raised to lift items, which can improve the user experience. At the same time, it will not occupy the storage space of the vehicle trunk. Only a rocker arm 120 and a drive component 130 are needed to move the cover 110, which is conducive to avoiding the vehicle's spare tire and to the assembly and use of the trunk cover.

[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, in one feasible embodiment, the rocker arm 120 has an L-shaped cross section along the thickness direction of the cover plate 110, one folded edge of the rocker arm 120 is an abutment section 121, and the other folded edge is a drive section 122.

[0061] In this technical solution, the rocker arm 120 is further provided. The cross-section of the rocker arm 120 along the thickness direction of the cover plate 110 is L-shaped. One folded edge of the rocker arm 120 is the abutment section 121, and the other folded edge is the drive section 122. Based on this, when the user needs the cover plate 110 to be raised, such as when the user needs to have a picnic or other use scenarios where the user needs to lift objects through the cover plate 110, the drive component 130 can be activated. The drive component 130 can drive the rocker arm 120 to swing, thereby causing the cover plate 110 to move. As the rocker arm 120 moves, the rocker arm 120 can be driven to move. When the moving section 122 swings, the driving section 122 of the rocker arm 120 will be in a vertical state. In this case, one of the folded edges of the L-shaped rocker arm 120 that is not connected to the cover plate 110 will be in a vertical state. This folded edge is the driving end. This folded edge can support the cover plate 110 and increase the height of the cover plate 110. The other folded edge of the L-shape is the abutting section 121. The abutting section 121 will be in a horizontal state, so that the cover plate 110 can be firmly fixed on the abutting section 121. Then, the cover plate 110 can be placed on the side away from the rocker arm 120 for the user to put items.

[0062] In this technical solution, when the user needs to store the cover plate 110, the drive component 130 can be reversed. The drive component 130 can drive the drive section 122 to rotate, so that the drive section 122 is in a horizontal or nearly horizontal state. The L-shaped rocker arm 120 will be in a horizontal state, and the drive section 122 of the L-shaped rocker arm 120 will be in a horizontal state. The rocker arm 120 can then be stored at the bottom of the cover plate 110. In this state, the abutment section 121 connected to the cover plate 110 will be in a vertical state, which can support the cover plate 110 and improve the load-bearing capacity of the cover plate 110. During the movement of the L-shaped rocker arm 120, the cover plate 110 will also move with the rocker arm 120. Through the hinge with the abutment section 121, and under the limiting effect of the vehicle's trunk, the cover plate 110 can be detached from the abutment section 121 and laid in the vehicle's trunk. Based on this, the trunk cover provided by the embodiments of this application can have at least two working states. It can be raised to lift items, which can improve the user experience. At the same time, it will not occupy the storage space of the vehicle's trunk. Only a rocker arm 120 and a drive component 130 are needed to move the cover 110, which is conducive to avoiding the vehicle's spare tire and to the assembly and use of the trunk cover.

[0063] like Figure 1 As shown, in one possible embodiment, the abutment section 121 is hinged to the cover plate 110 via a driven pivot 160.

[0064] In this technical solution, a connection method for the abutment section 121 is further provided. The abutment section 121 is hinged to the cover plate 110 through the driven rotating shaft 160, which makes the rotation of the cover plate 110 relative to the abutment section 121 more flexible, facilitates the storage of the cover plate 110, and also facilitates the cover plate 110 abutting against the abutment section 121, making the use of the trunk cover more convenient and the maintenance simpler.

[0065] like Figure 1 As shown, in one feasible embodiment, the drive unit 130 includes: a motor 131; a power shaft 132, the output end of the motor 131 is connected to the power shaft 132, and the power shaft 132 is connected to the drive section 122.

[0066] In this technical solution, the structural composition of the drive component 130 is further provided. The drive component 130 may include a motor 131 and a power shaft 132. The motor 131 can drive the power shaft 132 to rotate. The rotation of the power shaft 132 can drive the drive section 122 to swing, which makes it easy to switch the drive section 122 between vertical and horizontal states. This facilitates the storage and lifting of the cover 110, making the use of the trunk cover more convenient and the maintenance simpler.

[0067] like Figure 1As shown, in one feasible embodiment, the trunk cover further includes a buckle 140 and a latch 150, one of which is disposed on the cover 110 and the other is disposed on the abutment section 121.

[0068] In this technical solution, the trunk lid may also include a latch 150 and a buckle 140. During use, when the vehicle is parked and the user needs the lid 110 to be raised, such as for picnics or other scenarios where the user needs to lift objects through the lid 110, the drive component 130 can be activated. The drive component 130 can drive the rocker arm 120 to swing, thereby moving the lid 110. As the drive section 122 of the rocker arm 120 swings... When the drive section 122 of the rocker arm 120 is in a vertical position, the cover plate 110 can abut against the abutment section 121. When the cover plate 110 abuts against the abutment section 121, the buckle 140 can be locked within the latch 150, making the abutment between the cover plate 110 and the abutment section 121 more reliable. Based on this, the cover plate 110 can bear heavier items. The verticality of the drive section 122 can support the cover plate 110 and increase its height.

[0069] When the user needs to store the trunk cover 110, the drive component 130 can be reversed. The drive component 130 can drive the drive section 122 to rotate, so that the drive section 122 is in a horizontal or nearly horizontal state. Based on this, the cover 110 will also move with the rocker arm 120. The cover 110 can be disengaged from the abutment section 121 through the hinge with the abutment section 121, and under the limiting action of the trunk of the vehicle, the cover 110 can be disengaged from the abutment section 121, and the buckle 140 can be disengaged from the buckle 140. The cover 110 can then be laid in the trunk of the vehicle.

[0070] The trunk cover provided by this application embodiment can have at least two working states. When the drive section 122 is in a vertical state, the cover 110 can abut against the abutment section 121. At the same time, the cover 110 can be fixed by the buckle 140 and the latch 150, making the fixation of the cover 110 more reliable. It can be raised to support items, which can improve the user experience. At the same time, it will not occupy the storage space of the vehicle's trunk. Only the rocker arm 120 and the drive component 130 are needed to move the cover 110, which is conducive to avoiding the vehicle's spare tire and is convenient for the assembly and use of the trunk cover.

[0071] like Figure 1 As shown, in some examples, in order to facilitate the processing of cover plate 110 and rocker arm 120, bayonet 150 can be formed on cover plate 110 and buckle 140 can be formed on rocker arm 120.

[0072] like Figure 1 As shown, in one feasible embodiment, the hinge point between the rocker arm 120 and the cover plate 110 is offset from the center of the cover plate 110, so that when the rocker arm 120 is in a vertical state, the cover plate 110 can rotate under the action of gravity and abut against the abutment section 121.

[0073] In this technical solution, the connection position relationship between the rocker arm 120 and the cover plate 110 is further provided. The hinge point between the rocker arm 120 and the cover plate 110 is offset from the center of the cover plate 110. Based on this, when the driving member 130 drives the rocker arm 120 to be in a vertical state, the cover plate 110 can rotate relative to the abutment section 121 under the action of gravity. The cover plate 110 can then abut against the abutment plate, which makes the fixation of the cover plate 110 more reliable, provides more stable support, and enables the cover plate 110 to stably support items, thereby further improving the user experience.

[0074] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a vehicle is provided according to a second aspect of the embodiments of this application, including: a vehicle body 210; a trunk cover as described in any of the above technical solutions, the trunk cover being disposed in the trunk of the vehicle body 210, and the cover 110 being used to cover the trunk of the vehicle body.

[0075] The vehicle provided in this application embodiment includes a trunk cover as described above, and therefore possesses all the beneficial effects of the trunk cover described above.

[0076] The trunk cover of the vehicle provided in this application embodiment includes a cover plate 110, a rocker arm 120, and a drive component 130. The rocker arm 120 includes an abutment section 121 and a drive section 122. In use, the trunk cover provided in this application embodiment is used to separate the vehicle's spare tire and storage space. The cover plate 110 can play a role in bearing pressure.

[0077] In the vehicle provided by this application embodiment, when the vehicle is parked, if the user needs the cover 110 to be raised, such as when the user needs to picnic or use the cover 110 to lift objects, the drive component 130 can be activated. The drive component 130 can drive the rocker arm 120 to swing, and the rocker arm 120 can swing, thereby moving the cover 110. As the drive section 122 of the rocker arm 120 swings, the drive section 122 of the rocker arm 120 will be in a vertical state. In this case, the cover 110 can abut against the abutment section 121. The verticality of the drive section 122 can support the cover 110 and increase the height of the cover 110. The abutment section 121 can be set to make the cover 110 firmly fixed on the abutment section 121, so that the side of the cover 110 away from the rocker arm 120 can be used by the user to hold items.

[0078] When the user needs to store the cover plate 110, the vehicle provided in this application embodiment can control the drive component 130 to reverse. The drive component 130 can drive the drive section 122 to rotate, so that the drive section 122 is in a horizontal or nearly horizontal state. Based on this, the cover plate 110 will also move with the rocker arm 120. The cover plate 110 can be detached from the abutment section 121 and laid in the trunk of the vehicle by the hinge with the abutment section 121 and the limiting effect of the trunk of the vehicle.

[0079] The vehicle provided by the embodiments of this application can have at least two working states. It can lift and support items, which can improve the user experience. At the same time, it will not occupy the storage space of the vehicle's trunk. Only a rocker arm 120 and a drive component 130 are needed to move the cover 110, which is conducive to avoiding the vehicle's spare tire and to the assembly and use of the trunk cover.

[0080] like Figure 3 As shown, a control method is proposed according to a third aspect of the embodiments of this application for controlling a vehicle as described above. The control method includes:

[0081] Step 301: Obtain the opening angle of the vehicle's tailgate. It is understandable that the opening angle of the vehicle's tailgate can be obtained through the vehicle controller.

[0082] Step 302: When the opening angle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, respond to the cover flip command and activate the drive unit to make the rocker arm vertical. It can be understood that if the tailgate opening angle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, it means the tailgate is open. In this case, the cover being lifted by the rocker arm will not interfere with the tailgate. Therefore, upon receiving the cover flip command, the drive unit can be activated to make the rocker arm vertical, and the cover can be lifted by the rocker arm.

[0083] Step 303: If the opening angle is less than the first threshold, stop responding to the cover flip command. It is understood that if the tailgate opening angle is less than the first threshold, it means the tailgate opening angle is small. In this case, if the cover is lifted by the drive unit and rocker arm, the cover may interfere with the tailgate. Therefore, even if a flip command is received under these circumstances, no response will be made to improve vehicle operating safety.

[0084] It is understood that the control method provided in this application embodiment is used to control the vehicle of the above-described technical solution, and therefore the control method has all the beneficial effects of the vehicle of the above-described technical solution.

[0085] The control method provided by the embodiments of this application further clarifies the actual response to the flipping command, making the operation of the vehicle safer.

[0086] The control method provided in this application embodiment allows the user to issue a flip command when the vehicle is parked and the user needs the cover to be raised, such as when the user needs to picnic or use the cover to lift objects. If the tailgate opening angle meets the requirements, the flip command can be responded to and the drive component can be activated. The drive component can drive the rocker arm to swing, which in turn moves the cover. As the drive section of the rocker arm swings, the drive section of the rocker arm will be in a vertical state. In this case, the cover can abut against the abutment section. The verticality of the drive section can support the cover and increase its height. The abutment section allows the cover to be firmly fixed on the abutment section, so that the user can place items on the side of the cover away from the rocker arm.

[0087] When the user needs to store the cover plate in the vehicle provided in this application embodiment, the user can issue a cover plate storage command. In response to the cover plate storage command, the drive component can be reversed. The drive component can drive the drive section to rotate, so that the drive section is in a horizontal or nearly horizontal state. Based on this, the cover plate will also move with the rocker arm. The cover plate can be detached from the abutment section and laid in the trunk of the vehicle under the limiting action of the abutment section through the hinge with the abutment section.

[0088] The vehicle provided by the embodiments of this application can have at least two working states. It can lift and support items, which can improve the user experience. At the same time, it will not occupy the storage space of the vehicle's trunk. Only a rocker arm and a drive component are needed to move the cover, which is conducive to avoiding the vehicle's spare tire and to the assembly and use of the trunk cover.

[0089] In some examples, the first threshold is greater than or equal to 30°.

[0090] In one feasible implementation, the control method further includes: acquiring angle information between the drive section and the chassis of the vehicle body; responding to a tailgate closing command when the angle information is less than or equal to a second threshold; and stopping responding to the tailgate closing command and generating a cover plate storage prompt when the angle information is greater than the second threshold.

[0091] In this technical solution, the control method may further include acquiring angle information between the drive section and the chassis of the vehicle body. If the angle information is greater than a second threshold, the tailgate may interfere with the cover of the trunk lid if it is closed. Therefore, if the angle information is greater than the second threshold, the tailgate will not be closed even if a tailgate closing command is received. Conversely, if the angle information is less than or equal to the second threshold, it indicates that the tailgate can be closed normally. Based on this, the closing of the vehicle tailgate is safer and smoother.

[0092] In some examples, the second threshold is less than or equal to 30°.

[0093] In one feasible implementation, the control method further includes: acquiring the load-bearing information of the cover plate; when the load-bearing information is less than or equal to a third threshold, responding to the cover plate flipping command and activating the drive unit to make the rocker arm in a vertical state; when the load-bearing information is greater than the third threshold, stopping the response to the cover plate flipping command.

[0094] In this technical solution, the control method may further include acquiring the load-bearing information of the cover plate. If the load-bearing information is greater than a third threshold, it indicates that there are too many or too heavy items stored on the cover plate. In this case, even if a cover plate flipping command is received, no response will be made. Conversely, if the load-bearing information is less than or equal to the third threshold, it indicates that there are not too many or too heavy items stored on the cover plate. Therefore, the cover plate can be flipped and lifted, which makes the lifting of the cover plate safer, reduces the probability of items falling off the cover plate, and further improves the user experience.

[0095] In some examples, the third threshold is less than or equal to 1 kg.

[0096] like Figure 4 As shown, according to a fourth aspect of the embodiments of this application, a computer-readable storage medium 401 is provided, which stores a computer program 402 to implement the control method of any of the above technical solutions.

[0097] The computer-readable storage medium 401 provided in this application embodiment implements the control method of any of the above-described technical solutions, and therefore possesses all the beneficial effects of the control method of the above-described technical solutions.

[0098] The computer-readable storage medium 401 provided in the embodiments of this application further clarifies the actual ability to respond to a flipping command, making the operation of the vehicle safer.

[0099] Based on this understanding, the technical solution of this application can be embodied in the form of a software product. The software product can be stored in a non-volatile storage medium (such as a CD-ROM, USB flash drive, or portable hard drive), and includes several instructions to cause a computer device (such as a personal computer, server, or network device) to execute the methods described in the various implementation scenarios of this application.

[0100] like Figure 5 As shown, a control device is proposed according to a fifth aspect of the embodiments of this application, comprising: a memory 501 storing a computer program; and a processor 502 executing the computer program; wherein, when executing the computer program, the processor 502 implements the control method of any of the above-described technical solutions.

[0101] The control device provided in this application embodiment implements the control method of any of the above-described technical solutions, and therefore possesses all the beneficial effects of the control method of the above-described technical solutions.
