[0051] In order to make the above object, features and advantages of the present application more apparent, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without any creative effort fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0052] Embodiment one

[0053] The fuel heater is a heating and heat preservation device for heating combustion oil, heavy oil, crude oil and various high viscosity oil products, and is mainly used for heating the interior of a vehicle in winter to improve the comfort of the people in the vehicle.

[0054] At present, the temperature level or air volume of the fuel heater is usually adjusted by a control switch with a heating machine host control box program built-in. However, the number of people in a large vehicle (such as a bus) is usually large, and due to the blocking of seats and human bodies, it is difficult for passengers far away from the fuel heater to adjust the temperature level or air volume of the fuel heater through the control switch, so the control flexibility of the existing fuel heater control mode is poor.

[0055] As an example, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A fuel heater control system is applied to the fuel heater control method of the present application, which comprises a vehicle 100, a fuel heater 200, a temperature sensor 300 and a liquid level detector 400, wherein the fuel heater 200 is used to heat the inside of the vehicle 100, the temperature sensor 300 is used to collect the temperature inside the vehicle 100 and the outlet temperature of the fuel heater 200, and the liquid level detector 400 is used to collect the fuel liquid level of the vehicle 100 to calculate the remaining fuel of the vehicle 100 according to the fuel liquid level. The structure of the fuel heater control system in this example is not limited, and the fuel heater control method mentioned below is also not limited to this fuel heater control system.

[0056] Based on this, the fuel heater control method of the first embodiment of the present application is proposed, which is applied to a target vehicle, the inside of the target vehicle is provided with a fuel heater and a plurality of temperature sensors, each of the temperature sensors is arranged at different positions of the target vehicle, please refer to Figure 2 , the fuel heater control method comprises:

[0057] Step S10, collecting the actual temperature inside the target vehicle based on each temperature sensor, and obtaining the initial working parameter of the fuel heater;

[0058] It should be noted that the temperature sensors can be uniformly arranged in the inside of the target vehicle, for example, a temperature sensor is arranged at every certain distance in the inside of the target vehicle, or the temperature sensors can be arranged at specific positions of the target vehicle, for example, a temperature sensor is arranged beside each seat in the inside of the target vehicle, and the arrangement position of the temperature sensors in the inside of the target vehicle is not limited in this embodiment.

[0059] In addition, it should be noted that the actual temperature inside the vehicle refers to the temperature inside the vehicle at the collection time point, the working parameter refers to the parameter value of the internal component of the fuel heater when it is working, which can include the motor speed and the battery pump frequency, and the initial working parameter refers to the working parameter of the fuel heater when the temperature sensor collects the actual temperature inside the target vehicle. The actual temperature inside the target vehicle can be collected based on each temperature sensor in real time, and the initial working parameter of the fuel heater can be obtained, or the actual temperature inside the target vehicle can be collected based on each temperature sensor periodically, and the initial working parameter of the fuel heater can be obtained, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0060] Step S20, screening out the initial temperature inside the vehicle less than the preset temperature threshold value from each of the actual temperatures inside the vehicle;

[0061] It should be noted that the initial vehicle interior temperature refers to the actual vehicle interior temperature less than the preset temperature threshold. For example, it can be assumed that the preset temperature threshold is 25 DEG C, the actual vehicle interior temperature A is 21 DEG C, and the actual vehicle interior temperature B is 25 DEG C. It can be seen that the actual vehicle interior temperature A is less than the preset temperature threshold, and the actual vehicle interior temperature A is taken as the initial vehicle interior temperature.

[0062] Step S30, according to each of the initial vehicle interior temperature, determine the target vehicle interior temperature, and determine the temperature difference between the target vehicle interior temperature and the preset temperature threshold;

[0063] It should be noted that the target vehicle interior temperature is a reference for controlling the working parameter adjustment of the fuel heater. The target vehicle interior temperature can be the average of each initial vehicle interior temperature, the minimum of each initial vehicle interior temperature, or the maximum of each initial vehicle interior temperature, and the present embodiment does not limit it. The temperature difference refers to the difference between the target vehicle interior temperature and the preset temperature threshold.

[0064] Step S40, according to the initial working parameter and the temperature difference, determine the target working parameter;

[0065] It should be noted that the target working parameter refers to the working parameter that the fuel heater needs to reach.

[0066] Step S50, control the fuel heater to adjust the initial working parameter to the target working parameter.

[0067] It should be noted that the purpose of controlling the fuel heater to adjust the initial working parameter to the target working parameter is to maintain the temperature of each region of the target vehicle interior near the preset temperature threshold, so that the vehicle interior of the target vehicle maintains a constant temperature environment.

[0068] It can be understood that the vehicle interior maintains a constant temperature environment, which is beneficial to the vehicle to adapt to the highland area or the environment with extremely low outdoor temperature, and solves the problem that the engine in the vehicle interior cannot be started due to the thickening of the fuel in the highland area or the environment with extremely low outdoor temperature.

[0069] The embodiment of the present application provides a fuel heater control method, the embodiment of the present application first collects the actual vehicle temperature of the target vehicle through temperature sensors arranged at different positions in the interior of the target vehicle, and obtains the initial working parameter of the fuel heater arranged in the interior of the target vehicle; then the initial vehicle temperature less than the preset temperature threshold is selected from each collected actual vehicle temperature, then the target vehicle temperature is determined according to each initial vehicle temperature, and the temperature difference between the target vehicle temperature and the preset temperature threshold is determined, then the target working parameter is determined according to the initial working parameter and the temperature difference, and finally the fuel heater is controlled to adjust the initial working parameter to the target working parameter. The embodiment of the present application determines the working parameter required by the fuel heater by monitoring the vehicle temperature, so as to realize automatic and flexible adjustment of the working parameter of the fuel heater, thereby the temperature range or air volume of the fuel heater can be adjusted by the vehicle personnel through the control switch, the working parameter of the fuel heater can be adaptively adjusted according to the vehicle temperature, the technical problem of poor control flexibility of the fuel heater control mode in the prior art is solved, and the control flexibility of the fuel heater is improved.

[0070] In a possible implementation manner, the step of determining the target working parameter according to the initial working parameter and the temperature difference comprises:

[0071] In step S41, it is verified whether the initial working parameter is less than a preset working parameter.

[0072] It should be noted that the preset working parameter refers to the minimum working parameter required by the fuel heater when the vehicle temperature in each region of the vehicle meets the preset temperature threshold, for example, the motor speed of the fuel heater needs to reach 5100, and the electromagnetic pump frequency needs to reach 50.

[0073] In step S42, if yes, the preset working parameter is taken as the target working parameter.

[0074] It can be understood that if the initial working parameter is less than the preset working parameter, that is, the working parameter of the fuel heater has not been adjusted to the minimum working parameter required by the fuel heater when the vehicle temperature in each region of the vehicle meets the preset temperature threshold, the preset working parameter needs to be taken as the working parameter required by the fuel heater to be adjusted, that is, the preset working parameter is taken as the target working parameter.

[0075] In step S43, if no, the working parameter adjustment value corresponding to the temperature difference is searched in the preset working parameter adjustment value configuration table.

[0076] It should be noted that the preset working parameter adjustment value configuration table records the mapping relationship between the temperature difference and the working parameter adjustment value, and the working parameter adjustment value refers to the numerical value that the working parameter of the fuel heater needs to increase. When setting the preset working parameter adjustment value configuration table, the fuel heater can be started first to maintain the temperature in the vehicle at the preset temperature threshold, and then the working parameter of the fuel heater at this time is taken as the preset working parameter. Then, the working parameter of the fuel heater is increased in turn, and the current working parameter of the fuel heater is recorded each time the temperature in the vehicle rises by 0.1 degrees Celsius. The difference between the current working parameter and the preset working parameter is calculated to obtain the working parameter adjustment value. The temperature rise (i.e. the temperature difference from the preset temperature threshold) and the working parameter adjustment value are associated, and the setting of the preset working parameter adjustment value configuration table is realized in turn.

[0077] In step S44, the sum of the working parameter adjustment value and the initial working parameter is calculated to obtain the target working parameter.

[0078] It can be understood that if there is still a region in the target vehicle that is less than the preset temperature threshold when the initial working parameter is greater than or equal to the preset working parameter, it may be because the external environment temperature is too low, causing the heat dissipation speed in the vehicle to be too fast, or because the fuel heater is aging, affecting the air volume of the air outlet, etc., thereby causing the temperature in the target vehicle to be less than the preset temperature threshold. At this time, the temperature difference corresponding working parameter adjustment value needs to be found in the preset working parameter adjustment value configuration table to further increase the working parameter of the fuel heater, eliminate the influence of other factors on the heating effect of the fuel heater, and maintain the stability of the temperature in the vehicle.

[0079] In a possible implementation manner, the air outlet of the fuel heater is provided with a temperature sensor, and the working parameter includes the motor speed and the electromagnetic pump frequency. The step of controlling the fuel heater to adjust the initial working parameter to the target working parameter includes:

[0080] In step S51, the temperature of the air outlet of the fuel heater is collected based on the temperature sensor arranged at the air outlet of the fuel heater.

[0081] It should be noted that the number of temperature sensors arranged at the air outlet of the fuel heater can be one or more. If the number is more, the average value of the collected temperatures can be taken as the temperature of the air outlet.

[0082] The temperature of the air outlet of the fuel heater can be collected in real time based on the temperature sensor arranged at the air outlet of the fuel heater, or the temperature of the air outlet of the fuel heater can be collected periodically based on the temperature sensor arranged at the air outlet of the fuel heater. The present embodiment does not make any limitation in this regard.

[0083] Step S52, if the outlet temperature is greater than or equal to the preset temperature threshold, the fuel heater is controlled to adjust the initial motor speed to the target motor speed, and keep the electromagnetic pump frequency of the fuel heater as the initial electromagnetic pump frequency;

[0084] It can be understood that if the outlet temperature is greater than or equal to the preset temperature threshold, it means that the temperature provided by the fuel heater has reached the standard temperature (the above-mentioned preset temperature threshold), and only because the air outlet amount of the air outlet is small, there is an area in the vehicle interior that is less than the standard temperature. At this time, the motor speed of the fuel heater is adjusted from the initial motor speed to the target motor speed to increase the air outlet amount of the air outlet by increasing the motor speed, and the electromagnetic pump frequency of the fuel heater is kept as the initial electromagnetic pump frequency, that is, the electromagnetic pump frequency of the fuel heater is not adjusted, thereby reducing the consumption of fuel to a certain extent.

[0085] Step S53, if the outlet temperature is less than the preset temperature threshold, the fuel heater is controlled to adjust the initial motor speed to the target motor speed, and adjust the initial electromagnetic pump frequency to the target electromagnetic pump frequency.

[0086] It can be understood that if the outlet temperature is less than the preset temperature threshold, it means that the temperature provided by the fuel heater has not reached the standard temperature. At this time, the motor speed of the fuel heater is adjusted from the initial motor speed to the target motor speed, and at the same time, the electromagnetic pump frequency of the fuel heater is adjusted from the initial electromagnetic pump frequency to the target electromagnetic pump frequency, so as to increase the heating speed inside the fuel heater by increasing the motor speed and the pump flow, and increase the air outlet amount of the air outlet of the fuel heater, thereby not only increasing the air outlet temperature of the air outlet of the fuel heater, but also increasing the air outlet amount of the air outlet of the fuel heater, thereby improving the heating speed of the fuel heater to the vehicle interior.

[0087] In a possible implementation manner, the step of determining the target vehicle interior temperature according to each initial vehicle interior temperature comprises:

[0088] Step S31, by comparing each initial vehicle interior temperature, the minimum initial vehicle interior temperature is obtained, and the minimum initial vehicle interior temperature is taken as the target vehicle interior temperature.

[0089] It should be noted that the minimum initial vehicle interior temperature refers to the minimum value of each initial vehicle interior temperature.

[0090] Step S32, or, by calculating the average value of each initial vehicle interior temperature, the target vehicle interior temperature is obtained.

[0091] If the difference between the maximum and minimum of the initial temperatures in the vehicle is small, i.e. the difference between the maximum and minimum is within a certain preset range, the average of the initial temperatures in the vehicle is selected as the target temperature in the vehicle; if the difference between the maximum and minimum of the initial temperatures in the vehicle is large, the minimum of the initial temperatures in the vehicle is selected as the target temperature in the vehicle.

[0092] Embodiment Two

[0093] Based on the first embodiment of the present application, in another embodiment of the present application, the same or similar contents as the above-mentioned embodiment one can refer to the above introduction, and the subsequent will not be described in detail. On this basis, please refer to Figure 3 , before the step of controlling the fuel heater to adjust the initial working parameter to the target working parameter, the fuel heater control method further comprises:

[0094] Step A10, obtaining the remaining fuel amount of the target vehicle, and verifying whether the remaining fuel amount is greater than a first preset fuel amount threshold;

[0095] It should be noted that the first preset fuel amount threshold is used to determine whether increasing the working parameter of the fuel heater has a risk of affecting the normal operation of the target vehicle.

[0096] When obtaining the remaining fuel amount of the target vehicle, a liquid level detector can be arranged in the interior of the target vehicle, so as to obtain the fuel liquid level height of the target vehicle based on the liquid level detector, and then the remaining fuel amount of the target vehicle is calculated according to the fuel liquid level height, the fuel bottle height and the fuel bottle capacity. A hydraulic sensor can also be arranged in the interior of the target vehicle, so as to obtain the remaining fuel amount of the target vehicle based on the hydraulic sensor. The present embodiment does not limit the obtaining method of the remaining fuel amount of the target vehicle.

[0097] Step A20, if yes, the step of controlling the fuel heater to adjust the initial working parameter to the target working parameter is executed.

[0098] In the present embodiment, since the fuel consumption of the target vehicle per unit time will increase after the fuel heater is increased and maintained at the target working parameter, in order to avoid the fuel heater consuming too much fuel amount and affecting the normal operation of the target vehicle, it is necessary to verify whether the remaining fuel amount of the target vehicle is greater than the first preset fuel amount threshold. If the remaining fuel amount of the target vehicle is greater than the first preset fuel amount threshold, it indicates that increasing the working parameter of the fuel heater will not affect the normal operation of the target vehicle. Then the operation of controlling the fuel heater to adjust the initial working parameter to the target working parameter is normally executed, so as to improve the control flexibility of the fuel heater while ensuring the normal operation of the target vehicle.

[0099] In a possible implementation, after the step of verifying whether the remaining fuel quantity is greater than the first preset fuel quantity threshold, the fuel heater control method further includes:

[0100] Step A11, if it is verified that the remaining fuel quantity is not greater than the first preset fuel quantity threshold, verifying whether the remaining fuel quantity is greater than a second preset fuel quantity threshold, where the second preset fuel quantity threshold is less than the first preset fuel quantity threshold.

[0101] It should be noted that the second preset fuel quantity threshold is used to determine whether the working parameter of the fuel heater can be automatically adjusted to be increased.

[0102] Step A12, if it is verified that the remaining fuel quantity is greater than the second preset fuel quantity threshold, controlling the fuel heater to adjust the initial working parameter to the target working parameter.

[0103] Step A13, acquiring a working duration of the fuel heater at the target working parameter.

[0104] Step A14, if the working duration is greater than a preset duration threshold, controlling the fuel heater to adjust the target working parameter to the initial working parameter.

[0105] It should be noted that the preset duration threshold is used to limit the maximum duration of maintaining the working parameter of the fuel heater at the target working parameter when the remaining fuel quantity of the target vehicle is greater than the second preset fuel quantity threshold and less than the first preset fuel quantity threshold.

[0106] In this embodiment, if the remaining fuel quantity of the target vehicle is not greater than the first preset fuel quantity threshold, it indicates that increasing the working parameter of the fuel heater has a risk of affecting the normal operation of the target vehicle, but it does not mean that the working parameter of the fuel heater cannot be increased at this time. It is necessary to further verify whether the remaining fuel quantity of the target vehicle is greater than the second preset fuel quantity threshold. If the remaining fuel quantity of the target vehicle is greater than the second preset fuel quantity threshold, it indicates that the working parameter of the fuel heater can be increased at this time. However, in order to avoid the working duration of the fuel heater at the target working parameter being too long, accelerating the consumption of the fuel quantity of the target vehicle which already has a small amount of remaining fuel, and further affecting the normal operation of the target vehicle, it is necessary to adjust the fuel heater back to the initial working parameter when the working duration of the fuel heater at the target working parameter is greater than the preset duration threshold, so as to stabilize the operation of the vehicle.

[0107] In a possible implementation, after the step of verifying whether the remaining fuel quantity is greater than the second preset fuel quantity threshold, the fuel heater control method further includes:

[0108] Step A112, if the remaining fuel quantity is not greater than the second preset fuel quantity threshold, the target vehicle outputs a fuel quantity warning signal, and displays the information of the refueling service station on the center console screen of the target vehicle by calling the positioning data of the target vehicle.

[0109] It should be noted that the fuel quantity warning signal is used to remind the vehicle personnel that the remaining fuel quantity of the vehicle is too small and needs to be supplemented. The fuel quantity warning signal can be an audible and visual alarm signal, a voice alarm signal, or a text alarm signal, and the embodiment is not limited thereto. The positioning data refers to the geographical position data of the target vehicle, which can be called from the vehicle-mounted cloud or from the target vehicle connected to the positionable device (such as a mobile phone). The embodiment is not limited thereto. The information of the refueling service station can include the location, service time, and service personnel of the refueling service station.

[0110] Before calling the positioning data of the target vehicle, the positioning data needs to be obtained. The GPS (Global Positioning System) positioning device can be set inside the target vehicle to locate the position information of the target vehicle based on the GPS positioning device and obtain the road condition information and building information near the position information. The position information, road condition information, and building information can be packaged to obtain the positioning data of the target vehicle.

[0111] It can be understood that if the remaining fuel quantity of the target vehicle is too low, the working parameters of the fuel heater cannot be automatically adjusted to increase. At this time, if the working parameters of the fuel heater need to be increased, the vehicle personnel needs to adjust the working parameters of the fuel heater through the control switch.

[0112] In the embodiment, if the remaining fuel quantity of the target vehicle is less than the second preset fuel quantity threshold, it means that the remaining fuel quantity of the target vehicle is too low at this time. At this time, the target vehicle needs to output a fuel quantity warning signal to remind the vehicle personnel that the remaining fuel quantity of the vehicle is too small, and timely remind the driver to supplement the fuel quantity. At the same time, in order to facilitate the driver to supplement the fuel quantity, the positioning data of the target vehicle needs to be called to display the information of the refueling service station on the center console screen of the target vehicle, so as to avoid the situation that the driver cannot normally operate the vehicle due to timely refueling.
