Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle technology, and more particularly to a method for processing a fragrance system, a fragrance system, a vehicle, and a readable storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of modern society, automobiles have become an indispensable means of transportation. People's requirements for cars are no longer limited to drivability, handling, and stability. Currently, people are paying more attention to a healthy and comfortable driving environment, leading to greater demands on the vehicle's interior, including in-car driving environment management. Besides air quality, the smell inside the car is also a major concern. Because the interior space of a car is relatively small, and doors and windows are mostly closed, creating a sealed environment, car air fresheners have become essential for many drivers to regulate the smell inside the vehicle.

[0003] Currently, in-car fragrance systems have become an important auxiliary component of in-car systems. Through in-car fragrance systems, the interior environment can be purified and the air inside the car can be kept clean, playing a certain role in purifying the air and creating a more comfortable in-car atmosphere, thereby enhancing the overall quality and luxury of the vehicle.

[0004] However, most in-car air freshener level detection systems are too expensive, requiring additional sensors for assistance, which means that most vehicles do not support this function. Furthermore, because in-car air fresheners are installed discreetly, people are often unaware of their remaining level, making it difficult to prepare for timely replacements, causing considerable inconvenience for car owners.

[0005] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a new method for processing fragrance systems, fragrance systems, vehicles, and readable storage media to solve or at least alleviate the above-mentioned technical defects. Summary of the Invention

[0024] If the remaining days of use of the fragrance are equal to the third threshold, a third prompt instruction is output, which includes pop-up prompt information and font color information generated based on the third threshold.

[0025] If the remaining days of use for the fragrance are less than the third threshold, a fourth prompt instruction is output. The fourth prompt instruction includes a pop-up message indicating that the fragrance has been used up and the font color information.

[0026] In one embodiment, the step of determining the remaining amount of fragrance based on the calibrated quantity and the fragrance consumption includes:

[0027] Obtain information on the type and concentration of the fragrance currently selected by the user, and obtain the current ambient temperature inside the vehicle;

[0028] The consumption rate of the fragrance is obtained based on the type information and the concentration information; a temperature influence coefficient is determined based on the ambient temperature, the type information, and the concentration information.

[0029] Based on the remaining information, the consumption rate of the fragrance, and the temperature influence coefficient, the remaining usage time of the fragrance is calculated.

[0059] This invention provides a method for processing a fragrance system for use in vehicles; please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart of a first embodiment of a fragrance system processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The fragrance system processing method includes:

[0060] S100, acquire historical parameter information of the fragrance and acquire historical ambient temperature inside the vehicle, wherein the historical parameter information includes fragrance type information, fragrance concentration information, operating status information and calibration quantity;

[0061] Fragrances can include readable electronic information such as scent, net content, production date, expiration date, and manufacturer. After successful installation, the vehicle can access the electronic information of the in-vehicle fragrance to determine its scent type. The fragrance leaves a usage record: historical ambient temperature refers to the ambient temperature inside the vehicle during each usage period; fragrance type information indicates the fragrance type, allowing users to choose different scents according to their preferences; fragrance concentration information indicates the fragrance concentration level—a higher concentration usually has multiple levels available; operating status information includes whether the fragrance is on or off, and the usage time when on; the calibrated quantity can be the full load content set during initial installation or set by the user (usually the former).

[0062] Optionally, the factory net content of the fragrance can be read as the standard quantity of the car fragrance. In this way, when the car fragrance has never been used, the current content can be quickly determined when a signal of successful installation is received.

[0063] The vehicle includes a fragrance system. When the user starts the vehicle, the fragrance system operates. The fragrance system typically has at least one type of fragrance. The fragrance system automatically or manually acquires the historical usage records and parameters of each fragrance in the vehicle.

[0064] S200, obtain the fragrance consumption rate and historical temperature influence coefficient based on the historical ambient temperature and the historical parameter information;

[0065] Fragrance consumption rate refers to the rate at which a particular fragrance is consumed at a specific temperature and concentration. However, when testing fragrance consumption rate, it was found that the consumption rate is not only affected by the concentration (i.e., the opening level during use), but also by different temperatures. In order to more accurately determine the actual consumption rate of each fragrance, it is necessary to determine the temperature influence coefficient, which is related to the concentration, fragrance type, and temperature.

[0066] S300, calculate the amount of fragrance consumed based on the fragrance consumption rate, the historical temperature influence coefficient, and the operating status information;

[0067] After obtaining the actual usage and consumption rate based on the fragrance consumption rate and the historical temperature influence coefficient, the actual consumption amount of the fragrance is obtained by combining the fragrance's operating status information.

[0068] S400, determine the remaining amount of fragrance based on the calibrated quantity and the fragrance consumption amount;

[0069] The remaining quantity of each fragrance is calculated by subtracting the total historical usage of each fragrance from the standard quantity of each fragrance.

[0070] Optionally, the remaining information is displayed as a percentage: Ln remaining = (Ln calibration - Ln consumption) / Ln calibration, where Ln remaining represents the percentage remaining, Ln calibration represents the calibration amount, Ln consumption represents the amount of fragrance consumed, and n represents the fragrance category code.

[0071] S500, output the remaining information.

[0072] The remaining information can be output to the vehicle's multimedia control system, which includes a display screen. Users can interact with the multimedia control system through one or more methods, such as touch, buttons, Bluetooth control via mobile phone, voice broadcast, or voice input. The multimedia control system displays or provides voice prompts to the user about the remaining amount of each fragrance, allowing the user to intuitively understand the remaining amount of each fragrance. It can also send the remaining amount information of each fragrance to the display screen to show the current percentage of each fragrance remaining in real time. If the remaining amount is insufficient, the system will prompt the user to purchase more fragrance in time to avoid a situation where no fragrance is available.

[0073] In the above embodiments, by executing the processing method of the fragrance system, the fragrance system can obtain historical parameter information and historical ambient temperature based on the usage records left during the use of each fragrance, thereby calculating the consumption rate and the influence coefficient of the vehicle interior temperature for each fragrance. Then, it calculates the fragrance consumption amount through an algorithm, compares it with a standardized quantity to obtain the remaining amount information for each fragrance, and finally outputs the remaining amount information, allowing users to know the remaining amount of each fragrance in a timely and accurate manner. Specifically, the fragrance system can display the remaining amount information of each fragrance in real time through the display interface of the multimedia control system or provide voice prompts, enabling users to know the remaining amount of fragrance in a timely and accurate manner, thus improving the intelligence of the vehicle. Furthermore, during real-time use of the fragrance, the fragrance system accumulates and calculates the fragrance usage based on the usage records of various fragrances, and updates the remaining amount information of each fragrance in real time based on the parameter information and ambient temperature recorded during use. This embodiment uses an algorithm to calculate the remaining amount of fragrance, which has the advantages of lower implementation cost and higher accuracy compared to traditional methods such as using sensors to detect the remaining amount of fragrance.

[0074] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a second embodiment of the fragrance system processing method of the present invention; the operating status information includes historical usage time, and step S300 includes:

[0075] S310, calculate the instantaneous consumption rate of the fragrance based on the fragrance consumption rate and the historical temperature influence coefficient, and obtain the historical usage time of the fragrance;

[0076] The "fragrance consumption rate" and "temperature influence coefficient" are defined as follows:

[0077] Fragrance consumption rate (Vn_m): The consumption rate of each fragrance at various concentrations under a base temperature (which can be set to 20℃ or other temperatures). (n represents the fragrance code, m represents the concentration code). Assuming the total amount of new fragrance is L, the consumption rate of each fragrance at different concentrations is determined experimentally.

[0078] Take a new fragrance type 1 and continuously consume it at a concentration level of 1 and a temperature of 20°C until the fragrance is completely consumed. Record the time T required. Then determine the consumption rate of fragrance type 1 at a concentration level of 1, V1_1 = L / T.

[0079] By switching fragrance types and concentrations in sequence, the above experimental operation was repeated to determine the consumption rate Vn_m of each fragrance type at each concentration.

[0080] Temperature Influence Coefficient (λn_T): For different fragrance types, temperature affects their consumption rate differently. The temperature influence coefficient is defined as λn_T (where n represents the fragrance code and T represents the temperature code). During vehicle use, the interior temperature will not be too high or too low for extended periods. The interior temperature range is defined as 10℃~35℃. The consumption rate of each fragrance type at different temperatures can be determined through experiments.

[0081] Take fragrance type 1 and continuously consume it at concentration level 1 and temperature of 10℃ until the fragrance is completely consumed. Record the time required T1. Then determine the consumption rate of fragrance type 1 at 10℃: V1_1_10℃ = L / T1, and the temperature influence coefficient at 10℃: λ1_10℃ = V1_1_10℃ / V1_1.

[0082] With a step size of 1℃, repeat the above experimental operation in the temperature range of 10℃~35℃ (the temperature influence coefficient of 20℃ is 1) to determine the temperature influence coefficient λn_11~λn_35 in the temperature range of 10℃~35℃.

[0083] Based on the above values ​​of λn_10 to λn_35, temperature influence curves are plotted to obtain the temperature influence coefficient λn_T at each temperature;

[0084] The product of the temperature influence coefficient and the fragrance consumption rate, λn_T*Vn_m, is the instantaneous consumption rate.

[0085] S320, the instantaneous consumption rate is integrally divided by the historical usage time to obtain the fragrance consumption amount.

[0086] When the fragrance is working, according to the parameters determined above, the instantaneous consumption rate of each fragrance at different concentrations is λn_T*Vn_m. The differential integral of this rate with respect to the historical usage time t gives the consumption amount of each fragrance, thus obtaining the consumption amount (i.e., historical usage amount) of each fragrance: Ln consumption = ∫λn_T*Vn_m*dt.

[0087] This embodiment determines the temperature influence coefficient of each fragrance at different temperatures through experiments. During manufacturing, the vehicle manufacturer can calculate the consumption rate of each fragrance at different fragrance concentrations and the influence coefficient of different temperatures on fragrance consumption, and use this as the initial setting of the fragrance system. Thus, the fragrance system can quickly calculate the usage amount of each fragrance based on the usage time at each fragrance concentration and the influence coefficient of fragrance consumption at that temperature through calculus. Finally, the remaining amount of each fragrance is obtained by subtracting the usage amount of each fragrance from the total amount of fragrance. This method has the advantages of accurate calculation and low implementation cost.

[0088] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic flowchart of a third embodiment of the fragrance system processing method of the present invention; the steps after S400 further include:

[0089] S410, calculate the daily usage of the fragrance within a preset time period;

[0090] The preset time period refers to a preset time cycle, such as the previous 7 days (previous week) or the previous 2 weeks, which can be set adaptively according to the actual situation and vehicle usage frequency; then the fragrance consumption within the preset time period is divided by the preset time period to obtain the average daily usage of each fragrance within the preset time period.

[0091] S420, divide the remaining amount of the fragrance by the daily usage to obtain the remaining number of days of use for the fragrance;

[0092] Once you have the daily usage amount of the fragrance within the preset time period, you can quickly calculate the remaining usage days of that type of fragrance by dividing the remaining amount by the daily usage amount.

[0093] S430, output the remaining number of days to use the fragrance.

[0094] In addition to displaying the remaining amount of fragrance, the human-computer interaction module can also display or indicate the remaining days of use, so that users can understand the fragrance's usage status more intuitively and clearly, and prepare to purchase spare parts in advance.

[0095] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating the fourth embodiment of the fragrance system processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the notification method for when the remaining usage days of a fragrance system reach a threshold, according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 Due to space limitations, the steps before S430' have been omitted; the steps after S420 include:

[0096] S430', compare and analyze the remaining days of use of the fragrance with a preset threshold, wherein the preset threshold includes a first threshold, a second threshold and a third threshold that decrease sequentially;

[0097] The remaining usage days are compared to see if a corresponding threshold is reached. If so, a corresponding program instruction is triggered. The first threshold can be 7 days, the second threshold can be 3 days, and the third threshold can be 1 day. The first, second, third, and fourth prompt instructions are all different; see details below. Figure 5 When the remaining usage time is still relatively long, the need for prompts is low, and prompts can be omitted. However, as the remaining usage time decreases and the corresponding threshold is triggered, prompts will become more frequent to attract the user's attention and prevent them from missing out. Specifically, if the fragrance has more than 7 days of remaining usage time, its content is still sufficient, and there is no need to prompt the user to purchase it.

[0098] Optionally, the number representing the remaining amount of fragrance on the display screen of the multimedia control system can be green, white, blue, or other colors.

[0099] S432', if the remaining days of use of the fragrance are equal to the first threshold, output a first prompt instruction, the first prompt instruction including pop-up prompt information and font color information generated according to the first threshold;

[0100] When the remaining usage days of the fragrance reach the threshold of 7 days, the multimedia control system will display a pop-up message on the screen: "Fragrance xx can still be used for 7 more days. Please prepare to replace the fragrance in time." The color of the remaining fragrance quantity will change to yellow. Here, "xx" refers to the fragrance category, and the same applies below.

[0101] S433', if the remaining days of use of the fragrance are equal to the second threshold, output a second prompt instruction, the second prompt instruction including pop-up prompt information and font color information generated according to the second threshold;

[0102] When the remaining usage days of the fragrance reach the threshold of 3 days, the multimedia control system can display a pop-up message on the screen: "The xx fragrance can still be used for 3 more days. Please prepare to replace the fragrance in time." The color of the remaining fragrance display number will change to orange.

[0103] S434', if the remaining days of use of the fragrance are equal to the third threshold, output a third prompt instruction, the third prompt instruction including pop-up prompt information and font color information generated according to the third threshold;

[0104] When the remaining days of use of the fragrance reach the threshold of 1 day, the multimedia control system can display a pop-up message on the screen: "The xx fragrance can still be used for 1 more day. Please prepare to replace the fragrance in time." The color of the remaining fragrance display number will change to red.

[0105] S435', if the remaining days of use of the fragrance are less than the third threshold, output a fourth prompt instruction, the fourth prompt instruction including a pop-up prompt message that the fragrance has been used up and font color information;

[0106] When the remaining days of use for the fragrance are less than 1 day, the multimedia control system can display a pop-up message on the screen saying "The fragrance has run out. Please prepare a replacement fragrance." The color of the remaining fragrance display number will change to brown.

[0107] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, different prompts will appear when the remaining usage days of the fragrance reach the corresponding threshold. When executing this program, only one of the above steps S431' to S435' can be run. The calculation of the remaining usage days can be a fuzzy value, that is, it can have a certain degree of tolerance. For example, 7.5 days to 6.5 days can all be regarded as 7 days. The corresponding pop-up prompt can only be executed once before the reset. Of course, more detailed steps can be set according to actual needs, such as dividing the time into 7 days, 5 days, 3 days, 2 days, 1 day, etc. Additional prompts can be given between 7 days and 3 days, and additional prompts can be given between 3 days and 1 day, including but not limited to pop-up prompts, changing the color of the remaining percentage number, and changing the background color of the card for the corresponding fragrance category.

[0108] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a flowchart illustrating the fifth embodiment of the fragrance system processing method of the present invention. Due to space limitations, Figure 6 The steps preceding step S400 are omitted; the steps following step S400 include:

[0109] S500', obtain the type and concentration information of the fragrance currently selected by the user, and obtain the current ambient temperature inside the vehicle;

[0110] The temperature influence coefficient is defined as λ, the margin information is defined as L, the remaining usage time is defined as T, and the consumption rate is defined as V. When in real-time use, the user opens the fragrance system and selects a fragrance and the desired concentration. The fragrance system obtains the fragrance type and concentration information selected by the user, and at the same time obtains the current ambient temperature information to determine the temperature influence coefficient.

[0111] S600': Obtain the consumption rate of the fragrance based on the type information and the concentration information; determine the temperature influence coefficient based on the ambient temperature, the type information, and the concentration information;

[0112] Based on the fragrance type and concentration information, the fragrance system can obtain the system-preset fragrance consumption rate and confirm the temperature influence coefficient under this parameter, thereby obtaining the real-time fragrance consumption rate λV.

[0113] S700', calculate the remaining usage time of the fragrance based on the remaining information, the consumption rate of the fragrance, and the temperature influence coefficient;

[0114] The remaining usage time of the fragrance can be calculated using the formula: T=L / (λV);

[0115] S800' outputs the remaining usage time of the fragrance.

[0116] Similarly, the remaining usage time of the fragrance is output to the multimedia control system. The steps in this embodiment can be run simultaneously with step S500, without any order. The difference between remaining usage time and remaining usage days is that the time can be displayed as: available for X hours and X minutes. This is combined with the remaining usage days to provide a reminder, reducing the cognitive bias caused by the user not using this type of fragrance much in the near future. Users can understand the remaining status of the fragrance from multiple perspectives.

[0117] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a flowchart illustrating the sixth embodiment of the fragrance system processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Due to space limitations, Figure 7 The steps preceding step S400 are omitted; the fragrance system includes a balance reset unit, and the fragrance system is equipped with a fragrance addition reset command. The steps following S500 include:

[0118] S600, determine whether the fragrance addition reset command has been triggered;

[0119] S700, if so, transmit a fragrance addition reset request to the remaining quantity reset unit, wherein the remaining quantity reset unit resets the remaining quantity information of the fragrance.

[0120] When any fragrance is used up, if the user adds a fragrance and confirms the addition through the fragrance addition interface, the fragrance addition reset command is triggered. The remaining amount of the corresponding fragrance is reset to the standard amount, and the remaining amount is recalculated. The remaining amount of the fragrance is displayed as 100% and the normal color display is restored.

[0121] Furthermore, the present invention also provides a fragrance system, comprising a driving system, a remaining quantity calculation system, and a prompting system. The fragrance system is used to execute the steps of the above-described fragrance system processing method. The driving system is used to switch fragrance types and control fragrance concentration levels.
