[0028] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] The embodiments of the present application mainly start from automation and reducing the frequency of personnel inspection, and improve the deficiencies of the existing vehicle inspection method by designing a new inspection device and method.

[0030] The embodiments of the present application provide a vehicle trunk inspection device, which comprises a trunk detection module, a vehicle cabin visual camera and a system processor. The trunk detection module and the vehicle cabin visual camera are in communication connection with the system processor.

[0031] The trunk detection module comprises a trunk opening detection sub-module, a wireless sub-module and a processor, and the wireless module is in communication connection with the system processor. The trunk opening detection sub-module can detect whether the trunk cover of the vehicle has ever been opened, and the wireless module can transmit the opening detection result to the system processor.

[0032] The system processor can activate the trunk opening detection sub-module to start and stop working through the wireless module, for example, the trunk opening detection sub-module starts working when the vehicle enters a factory area or a parking lot, the system processor can wake up the trunk detection module to obtain the opening detection result when the vehicle drives to an exit, and the trunk opening detection sub-module stops working.

[0033] Optionally, the trunk detection module is arranged on the trunk cover of the vehicle, and is used for detecting and recording whether the trunk of the vehicle is opened. If it is recorded that the trunk of the vehicle is not opened, the trunk does not need to be manually opened for inspection, and the vehicle inspection passing efficiency is improved.

[0034] The compartment visual camera identifies whether there is a violation in the vehicle compartment, and transmits the identification result to the system processor. The compartment visual camera can intelligently identify whether there is a violation in the vehicle compartment, instead of manual visual inspection, thereby improving the vehicle inspection and passing efficiency.

[0035] Optionally, the compartment visual camera is arranged at the inspection point, which is usually the exit of the factory area or parking lot, and an automatic identification license plate access control system can be arranged at the exit.

[0036] The system processor receives the opening detection result and the identification result, and outputs a release instruction or a manual detection instruction. Specifically, if the opening detection result is that the vehicle compartment is not opened and the identification result is that there is no violation, the release instruction is output; if the opening detection result is that the vehicle compartment is opened and / or the identification result is that there is a violation, the manual detection instruction is output. The release instruction can be sent to the access control system, which can transmit a signal to the electric barrier door to automatically release; the manual detection instruction can be sent to the access control system, the intelligent terminal or the information output device to play or display the manual detection instruction to the detection personnel, and the detection personnel can manually check.

[0037] The vehicle trunk inspection device provided by the embodiment of the application detects whether the trunk cover of the vehicle is opened through the trunk opening detection sub-module, identifies whether there is a violation in the vehicle compartment through the compartment visual camera, and determines the release instruction or the manual detection based on the opening detection result and the identification result, thereby realizing automatic vehicle inspection, effectively improving the vehicle inspection and passing efficiency, reducing the involvement of manual work, reducing the burden of security personnel, and reducing the time required for exit inspection.

[0038] As a feasible way, the trunk opening detection sub-module includes a magnetic detection head and a magnetic sticker, and the magnetic detection head and the magnetic sticker are arranged on the trunk cover and the trunk base respectively. If the trunk cover is opened, the distance between the magnetic detection head and the magnetic sticker increases, so that the magnetic detection head cannot detect the magnetic sticker, and thus it is determined that the trunk cover is opened when the magnetic detection is not detected.

[0039] As another feasible way, the trunk opening detection sub-module includes a light emitting probe and a reflective sticker, and the light emitting probe and the reflective sticker are arranged on the trunk cover and the trunk base respectively. If the trunk cover is opened, the positional relationship between the light emitting probe and the reflective sticker changes, the return light state change can be recorded, and thus it is determined that the trunk cover is opened.

[0040] As another possible implementation, the trunk opening detection sub-module includes a position detection element, which is arranged on the trunk cover. The position detection element can detect and analyze the position / acceleration characteristics thereof, so as to determine whether there is similar data as opening the trunk, and determine whether the trunk cover is opened.

[0041] As another possible implementation, the trunk opening detection sub-module includes an ultrasonic ranging unit, which is arranged on the trunk cover, and the emission direction of the ultrasonic ranging unit is directed to the trunk base. The ultrasonic ranging unit can measure the distance between the trunk cover and the trunk base, and if the distance exceeds a threshold value, it can be determined that the trunk cover is opened.

[0042] Optionally, the vehicle trunk inspection device can further include a license plate camera, which is in communication connection with the system processor, can identify the license plate information of the vehicle, and record the entering and leaving time of the vehicle.

[0043] Optionally, the vehicle trunk inspection device can further include an electric barrier door, which is in communication connection with the system processor. The system processor can output a release instruction to the electric barrier door to automatically release the vehicle.

[0044] Optionally, the trunk detection module can further include a solar cell panel and a battery, and the battery is in electrical connection with the trunk opening detection sub-module, the wireless sub-module and the processor.

[0048] The detection head 5.3 can be a position module, a magnetic probe or a light-emitting probe, etc. If the detection head is a position detection module, the magnetic sticker or the reflective sticker can not be arranged. The magnetic sticker or the reflective sticker is fixed to the trunk base.

[0049] The vehicle trunk inspection device is innovatively designed from the aspects of reducing the inspection frequency of personnel and automation.

[0050] 1. The rear trunk detection module 5 and the carriage visual camera 6 are added to the traditional automatic identification license plate access control system.

[0051] 2. The rear trunk detection module 5 is used to record whether the trunk is opened after the vehicle enters the site, and transmit the signal to the system processor.

[0052] 3. The carriage visual camera 6 is used to identify whether there are large or illegal items in the carriage, and the system processor is used to replace the personnel for intelligent identification and transmit the result to the system processor.

[0053] The carriage visual camera and the system processor can be multiple, respectively arranged at multiple exits, or multiple lanes arranged with the same exit, so as to realize vehicle distribution, few manual inspection, high efficiency and automation.

[0054] Figure 3 A schematic flowchart of a vehicle trunk inspection method in the embodiment of the application is shown, the method is applied to the vehicle trunk inspection device, and includes the following steps:

[0055] S302, the rear trunk detection module detects whether the trunk of the vehicle is opened, and transmits the opening detection result to the system processor.

[0056] The vehicle can be installed with the rear trunk detection module in advance, which can be pasted or screwed, and if it is lost after installation, it is invalid, and manual inspection is replaced.

[0057] When the vehicle enters, the license plate camera records the entering time, and feeds back to the rear trunk detection module through wireless connection, and the rear trunk detection module starts to work and records whether the trunk cover and the trunk base are separated.

[0058] Exemplarily, the method for detecting whether the trunk cover is opened is as follows: if a position module is used, the position / acceleration characteristics can be intelligently analyzed to determine whether there is similar data of opening / closing the trunk; if a magnetic sticker is used, when the magnetic probe cannot detect the magnet, it is determined that the door is opened; if a light probe is used, when the return light state changes, it is determined whether the door is opened.

[0059] When the vehicle exits, the license plate camera recognizes again, records the current time, and the system processor wakes up the wireless module of the trunk detection module to receive the following information: whether the trunk cover has been opened.

[0060] S304, the vehicle cabin visual camera identifies the illegal items in the vehicle cabin, and transmits the identification result to the system processor.

[0061] The system processor wakes up the vehicle cabin visual camera and receives the detection result fed back by the vehicle cabin visual camera.

[0062] S306, the system processor receives the opening detection result and the identification result, and outputs a release instruction if the opening detection result is not opened and the identification result is no illegal items.

[0063] The system processor summarizes the above information, and if the passing conditions are met, the signal is transmitted to the electric barrier door to automatically release; if the passing conditions are not met, the manual inspection is notified through the sound. The passing conditions can be set as: the trunk has not been opened + the vehicle cabin visual camera has not found abnormal items. If combined with the license plate information, the passing conditions can be set as: the trunk has not been opened + the license plate allows passing + the vehicle cabin visual camera has not found abnormal items.

[0064] S308, if the opening detection result is opened and / or the identification result is illegal items, an artificial detection instruction is output.

[0065] The vehicle trunk inspection method provided by the embodiment of the application detects whether the trunk cover of the vehicle is opened through the trunk opening detection sub-module, and identifies whether there are illegal items in the vehicle cabin through the vehicle cabin visual camera, so as to realize automatic inspection of the vehicle, improve efficiency, and reduce manual work.

[0066] In the case that the vehicle trunk inspection device further includes a license plate camera, the trunk opening detection can be started or stopped in combination with the recognized license plate information. The method can further include:

[0067] The license plate camera recognizes the license plate information of the vehicle, and sends the license plate information to the system processor. If the system processor determines that the vehicle enters according to the license plate information, a start instruction is sent to the trunk detection module of the vehicle, and the trunk detection module starts to detect and record whether the trunk is opened; if the system processor determines that the vehicle leaves according to the license plate information, a wake-up instruction is sent to the trunk detection module of the vehicle, and the trunk detection module feeds back the opening detection result to the system processor.

[0068] The trunk opening detection function is started when the vehicle enters, and the opening detection result obtained is fed back to the system processor and then the function is stopped when the vehicle leaves, so that the trunk opening detection function is more energy-saving and efficient.

[0069] The above method of the embodiment can effectively improve the efficiency of vehicle inspection and passing, reduce manual participation, reduce the burden of security personnel, and reduce the time required for exit inspection.
