Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of automotive manufacturing technology and relates to a shift control method, system, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] A gear shifter is a device in automobiles or other mechanical equipment used to change the gear ratio of the drive shaft. The gear shifter is one of the core components of an automobile's powertrain. Its function is to adapt the engine's output torque and speed to various driving conditions based on vehicle speed and load, and to transmit power to the wheels. The working process of a gear shifter can be divided into three stages: the starting stage, the shifting stage, and the gear locking stage.

[0003] Currently, vehicle gear shifters can be either lever shifters or electronic shifters. Electronic shifters can perform gear shifting by recognizing user pressure. However, pressure-based shifting cannot determine whether the shift is caused by pressure from other body parts or objects, leading to accidental touches. Additionally, new drivers are prone to shifting into the wrong gear. All of these factors can cause abnormal vehicle operation, significantly impacting driving safety and road safety. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problems described in the background section, this invention provides a control method, system, and storage medium for electronic gear shifting in motor vehicles.

[0005] The method of the present invention includes the following steps: S1. After receiving the user's shift request electrical signal, the vehicle's electronic shifter analyzes the vehicle's surrounding environment to obtain the user's actual driving needs and forms a shift control signal. S2. After receiving the shift control signal, the vehicle's control module analyzes the pressing method of the electronic shifter's gear position switch to determine whether the input shift control signal meets the user's actual shifting needs: If the input shift control signal meets the user's actual shifting needs, it is treated as a valid signal and the corresponding shifting command is executed. If the input shift control signal does not meet the user's actual shifting needs, it is treated as an invalid signal, the corresponding shifting command is ignored, and a reminder message is issued to remind the user to input a shifting command that meets the actual shifting needs.

[0006] Furthermore, in S1, the method for analyzing the vehicle's surrounding environment is as follows: First, acquire the first image information of the front of the vehicle and the second image information of the rear of the vehicle. Based on the first and second image information, determine whether there are obstacles in front of the vehicle and behind the vehicle. When there is an obstacle on one side and no obstacle on the other side, the side without an obstacle is taken as the target driving direction, which is the user's actual driving needs. When there are obstacles on both sides, the distance from each obstacle to the vehicle is determined, and the one with the larger distance from the vehicle is taken as the target driving direction. The target driving direction is the user's actual driving needs. When there are no obstacles on either side, the system retrieves a vehicle scenario database that includes at least multiple sets of first image information, second image information, and vehicle scenarios corresponding to the first and second image information, to obtain the vehicle scenario that matches the first and second image information and to acquire the user's actual driving needs.

[0007] Furthermore, in step S1, the method for generating the shift control signal is as follows: If there is an obstacle in front of the vehicle and no obstacle behind the vehicle, it means that the user's current actual driving need is to drive in reverse. When the shift demand signal is D, it means that the shift demand signal does not meet the user's actual driving needs. The final shift control signal should be "press R". If there is an obstacle behind the vehicle and no obstacle in front of the vehicle, it means that the user's current actual driving need is to drive forward. If the shift demand signal received at this time is R, it means that the shift demand signal does not meet the user's actual driving needs. The final shift control signal should be "press D".

[0008] Furthermore, the vehicle usage scenario database is established through image data transmitted to the cloud by a large number of networked users. For example, when a user parallel parks at a certain location, the user marks the location and takes images of the front and rear of the vehicle. The marked location and images are then transmitted to the cloud. Through continuous marking by a large number of users, the vehicle usage scenario database can be obtained.

[0009] The vehicle usage scenario database includes at least the following scenarios: waiting at a red light, parallel parking, and parking while refueling.

[0010] Furthermore, the method for determining the shift control signal corresponding to the aforementioned vehicle usage scenario is as follows: When the current driving scenario is determined to be a red light waiting scenario, the shift control signal judgment mode under the red light waiting scenario is entered. Specifically, the waiting time of the traffic light is obtained. When the waiting time is less than or equal to a certain value, the D gear is used as the shift control signal. All other signals except the D gear are regarded as invalid signals and ignored. When the current driving scenario is determined to be a parallel parking scenario, the shift control signal judgment mode under the parallel parking scenario is entered. Specifically, when it is determined that there are other vehicles on one side of the vehicle, the reverse gear is used as the shift control signal, and all other signals except the reverse gear are considered invalid signals and ignored. When the current driving scenario is determined to be a refueling and parking scenario, the shift control signal judgment mode under the refueling and parking scenario is entered. Specifically, when it is determined that the vehicle is in the refueling area and the remaining fuel is less than or equal to a certain value, the P gear is used as the shift control signal, and all other signals other than the P gear are considered invalid signals and ignored.

[0011] Furthermore, in S2, the method for analyzing the pressing mode of the electronic shifter's gear switch includes: starting the timer from the moment the switch is pressed, if the duration of the press exceeds a first preset duration, the shift control signal is taken as the user's actual shifting request; if the duration of the press does not exceed the first preset duration, it is assumed to be a user accidental touch, and the shift control signal is not taken as the user's actual shifting request; the first preset duration can be set according to actual needs.

[0012] Furthermore, in S2, the method for analyzing the pressing mode of the gear shift switch of the electronic gear shifter also includes: determining whether it is a mis-touch by the capacitance or pressure value of the gear shift switch pressed by the electronic gear shifter; firstly, obtaining multiple sets of preset capacitance or preset pressure values ​​generated by multiple users mis-touching the gear shift switch in various postures or parts through test data; and then obtaining a reference capacitance or reference pressure value by averaging these sets of preset capacitance or preset voltage values. When the gear switch is pressed, the real-time capacitance or pressure value of the pressed gear switch is obtained. When the real-time capacitance or pressure value is less than the reference capacitance or pressure value, the gear shift control signal is taken as the user's actual gear shifting request. Otherwise, it is assumed that the user has accidentally pressed the switch and the gear shift control signal is not taken as the user's actual gear shifting request.

[0013] Furthermore, in S2, during vehicle operation, the following determination is made regarding whether the electronic gear shifter's gear position switch has been accidentally activated: If the vehicle fails to respond to the switch signal for neutral or reverse gear, a condition of 0 km / h speed should be added to eliminate accidental activation signals for neutral or reverse gear while the vehicle is in motion. When three or two switches are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is N > D > R: When three switches are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is N; when D and N are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is N; when D and R are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is D; when N and R are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is N.

[0014] The system of the present invention includes a shift control signal generation module and a real shift demand determination module.

[0015] The shift control signal generation module is used to obtain the user's actual driving needs based on the shift request electrical signal received by the vehicle's electronic shifter, through analysis of the vehicle's surrounding environment, and to generate a shift control signal.

[0016] The actual shift demand judgment module is used to determine whether the input shift control signal meets the user's actual shift demand based on the shift control signal received by the vehicle's control module and by analyzing the pressing method of the electronic shift switch. If it meets the user's actual shift demand, the input shift control signal is treated as a valid signal and the corresponding shift command is executed. If it does not meet the user's actual shift demand, the input shift control signal is treated as an invalid signal, the corresponding shift command is ignored, and a reminder message is issued to remind the user to input a shift command that meets the actual shift demand.

[0017] The present invention also provides a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program that, when executed by a processor, implements the above-described control method for electronic gear shifting in a motor vehicle.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, this invention analyzes the vehicle's surrounding environment to obtain the user's actual driving needs. Based on this, it judges the shift request electrical signals received by the electronic gear shifter, generates a shift control signal, and then analyzes the way the gear shift switch is pressed to further determine whether the input shift control signal meets the user's actual shift needs before executing the corresponding shift command. Through this operation, this invention avoids accidental activation of the electronic gear shifter by the user and also avoids the possibility of new users shifting into the wrong gear, thus preventing abnormal vehicle operation. It not only meets the user's intelligent vehicle usage needs but also improves vehicle safety, achieving the goal of protecting driving safety and user safety. Attached Figure Description

[0019] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of the method of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects to be solved by this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0021] This invention provides a control method for electronic gear shifting in motor vehicles, the flowchart of which is shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the details are as follows.

[0022] S1. After receiving the user's shift request electrical signal, the vehicle's electronic shifter analyzes the vehicle's surrounding environment to obtain the user's actual driving needs and generates a shift control signal.

[0023] Specifically, the analysis method for the vehicle's surrounding environment is as follows: First, acquire the first image information of the front of the vehicle and the second image information of the rear of the vehicle. Based on the first and second image information, determine whether there are obstacles in front of the vehicle and behind the vehicle. When there is an obstacle on one side and no obstacle on the other side, the side without an obstacle is taken as the target driving direction, which is the user's actual driving needs. When there are obstacles on both sides, the distance from each obstacle to the vehicle is determined, and the one with the larger distance from the vehicle is taken as the target driving direction. The target driving direction is the user's actual driving needs. When there are no obstacles on either side, the system retrieves a vehicle scenario database that includes at least multiple sets of first image information, second image information, and vehicle scenarios corresponding to the first and second image information, to obtain the vehicle scenario that matches the first and second image information and to acquire the user's actual driving needs.

[0024] The vehicle usage scenario database is built using image data transmitted to the cloud by a large number of connected users. For example, when a user parallel parks at a certain location, they mark that location and take images of the front and rear of the car. Both the marked location and the images are transmitted to the cloud. Through continuous marking by a large number of users, the vehicle usage scenario database can be obtained. The vehicle usage scenarios in the database include at least: waiting at a red light, parallel parking, and parking while refueling.

[0025] The method for generating the shift control signal is as follows: If there is an obstacle in front of the vehicle and no obstacle behind the vehicle, it means that the user's current actual driving need is to drive in reverse. When the shift demand signal is D, it means that the shift demand signal does not meet the user's actual driving needs. The final shift control signal should be "press R". If there is an obstacle behind the vehicle and no obstacle in front of the vehicle, it means that the user's current actual driving need is to drive forward. If the shift demand signal received at this time is R, it means that the shift demand signal does not meet the user's actual driving needs. The final shift control signal should be "press D".

[0026] The method for determining the shift control signal corresponding to the vehicle usage scenario is as follows: When the current driving scenario is determined to be a red light waiting scenario, the shift control signal judgment mode under the red light waiting scenario is entered. Specifically, the waiting time of the traffic light is obtained. When the waiting time is less than or equal to a certain value, the D gear is used as the shift control signal. All other signals except the D gear are regarded as invalid signals and ignored. When the current driving scenario is determined to be a parallel parking scenario, the shift control signal judgment mode under the parallel parking scenario is entered. Specifically, when it is determined that there are other vehicles on one side of the vehicle, the reverse gear is used as the shift control signal, and all other signals except the reverse gear are considered invalid signals and ignored. When the current driving scenario is determined to be a refueling and parking scenario, the shift control signal judgment mode under the refueling and parking scenario is entered. Specifically, when it is determined that the vehicle is in the refueling area and the remaining fuel is less than or equal to a certain value, the P gear is used as the shift control signal, and all other signals other than the P gear are considered invalid signals and ignored.

[0027] S2. After receiving the shift control signal, the vehicle's control module analyzes the pressing method of the electronic shifter's gear position switch to determine whether the input shift control signal meets the user's actual shifting needs: If the input shift control signal meets the user's actual shifting needs, it is treated as a valid signal and the corresponding shifting command is executed. If the input shift control signal does not meet the user's actual shifting needs, it is treated as an invalid signal, the corresponding shifting command is ignored, and a reminder message is issued to remind the user to input a shifting command that meets the actual shifting needs.

[0028] Specifically, the analysis methods for the pressing method of the gear shift switch in an electronic gear shifter include: 1. Timing starts from the moment the button is pressed. When the duration of the press exceeds the first preset duration, the shift control signal is taken as the user's actual shift request. When the duration of the press does not exceed the first preset duration, it is assumed to be a user accidental touch, and the shift control signal is not taken as the user's actual shift request.

[0029] The first preset duration can be set according to actual needs, such as 50ms. From the perspective of press duration, short-term signals of accidental touch can be eliminated.

[0030] Second, to determine whether an electronic gear shifter's gear position switch has been accidentally pressed, the capacitance or pressure value is used. First, multiple sets of preset capacitance or pressure values ​​are obtained from test data of various users accidentally pressing the gear position switch in different postures or locations. Then, the average of these preset capacitance or pressure values ​​is calculated to obtain a reference capacitance or pressure value. When the gear position switch is pressed, the real-time capacitance or pressure value is obtained. If the real-time capacitance or pressure value is less than the reference capacitance or pressure value, the shift control signal is considered the user's actual shift request; otherwise, it is considered an accidental press, and the shift control signal is not considered the user's actual shift request.

[0031] This is because when a user accidentally presses the electronic shifter, the area and pressure of the pressed area are smaller compared to when it is pressed normally. Therefore, the capacitance or pressure value of the pressed area can be used to determine whether it is an accidental press.

[0032] The above operations are all based on the vehicle being in a state of preparation for starting. The method of pressing the gear shift switch of the electronic gear shifter is used to determine whether the shift control signal meets the user's actual shift needs. Pressing signals that do not meet the requirements are ignored as invalid signals. However, there is also the possibility of accidental touch during vehicle operation.

[0033] Therefore, during vehicle operation, the following checks are performed to determine whether the electronic gear shifter's gear position switch has been accidentally activated: If the vehicle fails to respond to the switch signal for neutral or reverse gear, a condition of 0 km / h speed should be added to eliminate accidental activation signals for neutral or reverse gear while the vehicle is in motion. When three or two switches are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is N > D > R: When three switches are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is N; when D and N are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is N; when D and R are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is D; when N and R are triggered simultaneously, the switch signal priority is N.

[0034] The present invention also provides a control system for electronic gear shifting in motor vehicles, which consists of a gear shifting control signal generation module and a real gear shifting demand judgment module.

[0035] The shift control signal generation module is used to obtain the user's actual driving needs based on the shift request electrical signal received from the vehicle's electronic shifter, through analysis of the vehicle's surrounding environment, and to generate a shift control signal.

[0036] The actual shift demand judgment module is used to determine whether the shift control signal received by the vehicle's control module meets the user's actual shift demand by analyzing the pressing method of the electronic shifter's gear switch. If it meets the user's actual shift demand, the input shift control signal is treated as a valid signal and the corresponding shift command is executed; if it does not meet the user's actual shift demand, the input shift control signal is treated as an invalid signal, the corresponding shift command is ignored, and a reminder message is issued to remind the user to input a shift command that meets the actual shift demand.

[0037] The specific implementation methods of each module in the system of the present invention are described in the above method, and will not be repeated here.
