Description
Technical Field

[0002] With the development of technology, the electric vehicle industry is constantly innovating and upgrading. Among the many functions of electric vehicles, charging is undoubtedly the most frequently used. During the charging process, to indicate whether charging is successful, a charging indicator light is usually provided at the charging port, making it easy to determine whether charging has been successful.
[0003] In related technologies, once the charging port is successfully connected to the charging device and charging begins, the charging indicator light on the charging port will light up and display a green light effect to indicate that the electric vehicle is successfully charging.
[0004] However, the charging indicator lights on the charging ports in related technologies are rather simple, making it difficult for users to accurately determine the charging status. This may lead users to disconnect the charging connection too early or too late. Disconnecting the charging connection too early results in incomplete charging, requiring more frequent charging; while disconnecting the charging connection too late causes power to continue flowing ineffectively after the battery is fully charged, thus wasting electrical resources. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0030] In this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used to distinguish between identical or similar items that have essentially the same function. It should be understood that there is no logical or temporal dependency between "first" and "second", nor is there any limitation on the quantity or execution order.
[0031] It should be noted that all information (including but not limited to the charging status of the target vehicle), data (including but not limited to data used for analysis, stored data, and displayed data), and signals involved in this application have been authorized by the user or by all parties in full, and the collection, use, and processing of related data must comply with the relevant laws, regulations, and standards of the relevant countries and regions. For example, the framework data involved in this application was obtained with full authorization.
[0032] Figure 1 A structural block diagram of a computer system 100 provided in an exemplary embodiment of this application is shown. The computer system 100 can implement a system architecture that serves as a control method for a charging indicator light. The computer system 100 includes a vehicle 110.
[0033] Vehicle 110 includes at least one of the following types of vehicles that require charging: pure electric vehicle, hybrid electric vehicle, plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, fuel cell vehicle, range-extended electric vehicle, etc. This application embodiment does not limit this type.
[0034] The vehicle 110 is equipped with a charging indicator light, which indicates the indicator light installed at the charging port of the target vehicle. The charging indicator light can be a light device with multiple colors and flashing modes, and the number of indicator lights in the charging indicator light can be one or more, which is not limited in this embodiment.
[0035] In some embodiments, the computer system 110 described above also includes a terminal 120.
[0036] Terminal 120 includes, but is not limited to, in-vehicle terminals, mobile phones, computers, intelligent voice interaction devices, smart home appliances, and aircraft. In some embodiments, terminal 120 is implemented as a mobile control terminal for vehicle 110. Terminal 120 can control vehicle 110 to perform target operations (e.g., light control, parking, closing windows, starting, etc.). Illustratively, a client application with a target application is installed and running on terminal 120. This target application includes at least one of vehicle control applications, instant messaging applications, navigation applications (e.g., map applications), etc., which have vehicle control functions. This application does not limit the specific form of the target application. Furthermore, this application does not limit the form of the target application, including but not limited to Apps (Applications), mini-programs, etc., installed on terminal 120, and can also be in web page form.
[0037] Optionally, the vehicle 110 and the terminal 120 communicate via a wireless network (such as 4G / 5G, Wi-Fi, etc.) or a wired connection (such as USB, Bluetooth, etc.).
[0038] In some embodiments, the computer system 100 further includes a server 130, which may be an independent physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server providing cloud computing services. Optionally, the server 130 may also be implemented as a node in a blockchain system.
[0039] In illustrative terms, if server 130 is implemented as a cloud server, the vehicle 110 and server 130 communicate via a wireless network, and the terminal 120 and server 130 communicate via a wireless network.
[0040] Optionally, the charging indicator control method provided in this application embodiment can be executed by vehicle 110, terminal 120, or server 130; or, it can be executed interactively by any two devices among vehicle 110, terminal 120, and server 130; or, it can be executed interactively by vehicle 110, terminal 120, and server 130. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0041] This explanation uses the method of controlling the charging indicator light on vehicle 110 as an example; it is illustrative and for reference only. Figure 2 It shows a schematic diagram of a vehicle system that implements a control method for a charging indicator light, such as Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle includes a Battery Management System (BMS) 201, a Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) 202, and a Body Control Module (BCM) 203.
[0042] Among them, the main function of the battery management system 201 is to intelligently manage and maintain each battery cell in the vehicle. The battery management system 201 can monitor the status of the battery in real time; the vehicle controller 202 is the core electronic control unit that realizes the vehicle control decision; the body control module 203 is responsible for managing the vehicle's body functions, such as doors, windows, and lights.
[0043] Indicatively, the battery management system 201 sends the current charging status and battery status to the body control module 203, and the vehicle controller 202 sends the current vehicle gear (e.g., P gear, N gear, etc.) to the body control module 203. The body control module 203 analyzes the charging status, vehicle gear, and other information to determine the indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency. After determination, the body control module 203 generates a corresponding first control signal and drives the charging breathing light 204 installed in the vehicle to display the indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency through the first control signal.
[0044] With the development of technology, the electric vehicle industry is constantly innovating and upgrading. Among the many functions of electric vehicles, charging is undoubtedly the most frequently used. During the charging process, to indicate whether charging is successful, the charging port is usually equipped with a charging indicator light, making it easy to determine whether charging has been successful. In related technologies, when the charging port is successfully connected to the charging device and charging begins, the charging indicator light on the charging port will light up and display a green light effect to indicate that the electric vehicle is charging successfully. However, the display of the charging indicator light on the charging port in related technologies is relatively simple, and users cannot accurately judge the charging status, which may lead users to disconnect the charging connection too early or too late. Disconnecting the charging connection too early will result in incomplete charging, requiring more frequent charging; while disconnecting the charging connection too late will cause power to continue to flow ineffectively after the battery is fully charged, thus wasting electrical resources.
[0045] Based on this, this application provides a method for controlling a charging indicator light. By acquiring the vehicle's charging status, a first control signal is determined for the charging indicator light. Based on the first control signal, the charging indicator light is driven to display with a specific color and breathing frequency. Through the intuitive display of the charging indicator light, users can quickly understand the vehicle's charging status, helping them to promptly identify problems during the charging process, such as poor charging connections or charging malfunctions, and thus take timely measures to improve the safety of the vehicle charging process. Furthermore, when the vehicle battery is charging, the breathing frequency of the charging indicator light matches the battery's charge level; that is, the charging indicator light can reflect the battery's charging progress in real time, allowing users to clearly know when charging is complete. This enables more precise control of charging time, avoiding overcharging or ineffective charging, thereby reducing the waste of electrical resources.
[0046] The following describes the control method for the charging indicator light provided in the embodiments of this application.
[0047] Based on the above introduction, Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a charging indicator light according to an embodiment of this application, which is applied to, for example... Figure 1 Taking vehicle 110 as an example, the method is described in steps 310 to 340 below.
[0048] Step 310: Obtain the charging status of the target vehicle.
[0049] The charging status is used to indicate the charging status of the battery in the target vehicle.
[0050] Optionally, the charging state includes at least one of the following states:
[0051] 1. Not connected state: The not connected state indicates that the battery and the charging device have not established a connection, and charging cannot be performed under this condition.
[0052] 2. Charging ready status: The charging ready status indicates that the battery and charging equipment are connected and the battery is waiting to be charged. It is an indication that the vehicle is performing necessary preparatory work, such as safety checks, equipment compatibility checks, and starting the charging station.
[0053] 3. Charging heating state: The charging heating state indicates that the battery is in the process of heating up. It is illustrative. In cold environments, the battery may need to be preheated to achieve optimal charging efficiency.
[0054] 4. Charging Fault Status: This status indicates a malfunction in the battery's charging process. When problems occur during charging, such as unstable current or abnormal voltage, the battery will enter this status.
[0055] 5. Charging in progress: This status indicates that the battery is being charged, and the battery capacity is continuously increasing.
[0056] 6. Charging complete status: Charging in progress status indicates that the battery has reached the preset charge level (e.g., 100%).
[0057] 7. Charging Reservation Waiting State: This state indicates that the battery is waiting to start charging before the preset time has elapsed. For example, when the user presets a charging time, and the current time has not yet reached the preset time, the battery will be in this state, waiting for the instruction to start charging.
[0058] It should be noted that the above examples of charging states are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0059] Optionally, the vehicle includes a battery management system to obtain the charging status of the target vehicle.
[0060] To illustrate, a battery management system (BMS) is an intelligent electronic system in a vehicle used to monitor, control, and protect the vehicle's battery. The BMS monitors various battery parameters, such as voltage, current, temperature, and state. By monitoring these parameters in real time, the BMS can understand the battery's operating status. The BMS is typically equipped with communication interfaces for communicating with the vehicle's control system, charging system, and other external devices. Through these interfaces, the BMS can send battery status information, such as the charging status mentioned above, to external systems.
[0061] Step 320: Determine the indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency based on the charging status.
[0062] Specifically, when the charging status indicates that the battery is charging, the indicator light's breathing frequency matches the battery's charge level.
[0063] Indicator light color refers to the color of the light, and indicator light colors include, but are not limited to, red, green, yellow, blue, and white. Indicator light breathing frequency describes the change in the indicator light's brightness. Illustratively, the indicator light breathing frequency indicates the speed at which the indicator light's brightness switches between a first brightness level and a second brightness level. Assuming the first brightness level is 0 and the second brightness level is 50, a breathing frequency of 60 times per minute means that the light brightness repeats this process 60 times within one minute, from 0 to 50 and back to 0.
[0064] Different charging states correspond to different indicator light colors and breathing frequencies. Optionally, the indicator light colors and breathing frequencies for different charging states are explained below.
[0065] 1. Not connected.
[0066] Optionally, when the charging port cover of the target vehicle is open and the charging status is not connected, the light color corresponding to the not connected status is determined as the indicator light color, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the not connected status is determined as the indicator light breathing frequency.
[0067] For illustrative purposes, the light color corresponding to the unconnected state can be blue, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the unconnected state can be 0. When the breathing frequency is 0, the charging indicator light will be constantly on.
[0068] In other embodiments, when the target vehicle's battery is in a discharging state, the light color corresponding to the disconnected state is determined as the indicator light color, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the disconnected state is determined as the indicator light breathing frequency.
[0069] It should be noted that the prerequisites for determining the light color corresponding to the disconnected state as the indicator light color and the breathing frequency corresponding to the disconnected state as the indicator light breathing frequency also include: the charging indicator light is enabled and the target vehicle is in N (neutral) or P (reverse).
[0070] 2. Charging ready status.
[0071] Optionally, when the target vehicle is in a charging preparation state, the light color corresponding to the charging preparation state is determined as the indicator light color, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the charging preparation state is determined as the indicator light breathing frequency.
[0072] For illustrative purposes, the light color corresponding to the charging ready state can be blue, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the charging ready state can be 60 times / minute.
[0073] 3. Target charging state: The target charging state is either the charging heating state or the charging reservation waiting state.
[0074] The charging indicator includes multiple indicator lights.
[0075] When the target vehicle is in the target charging state, determine the indicator colors of multiple indicator lights according to a preset color ratio; and determine the breathing frequency corresponding to the target charging state as the indicator light breathing frequency.
[0076] Indicatively, the charging indicator light is implemented as a light group composed of multiple indicator lights. The preset color ratio can be set to a red to green ratio, such as 76:85. That is to say, if the charging indicator light is a light group composed of 161 indicator lights, then 76 of the indicator lights will be red and 85 of the indicator lights will be green.
[0077] The preset color ratios for the charging / heating state and the charging / pre-scheduling state can be the same or different; the breathing rates for the charging / heating state and the charging / pre-scheduling state can be the same or different.
[0078] For illustrative purposes, the breathing rate corresponding to the charging and heating state can be 0, and the breathing rate corresponding to the charging reservation waiting state can be 60 breaths / minute.
[0079] 4. Charging failure status.
[0080] Optionally, if the target vehicle is in a charging fault state, the light color corresponding to the charging fault state is determined as the indicator light color, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the charging fault state is determined as the indicator light breathing frequency.
[0081] For illustrative purposes, the light color corresponding to a charging fault state can be red, and the breathing frequency corresponding to a charging fault state can be 0.
[0082] In some embodiments, when the target vehicle is in a charging fault state, the target vehicle's security state is either armed or partially armed. When the target vehicle's security state changes from other states (such as armed state or unarmed state) to disarmed state, the indicator light color is determined by the light color corresponding to the disconnected state, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the disconnected state is determined by the indicator light breathing frequency. The security state is used to characterize the activation state of the security system in the target vehicle.
[0083] 5. Charging in progress.
[0084] Optionally, if the target vehicle is in the charging state, the current battery level is obtained; the indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency are determined based on the current battery level.
[0085] As an illustration, when the battery is charging, the indicator light color and breathing frequency can be determined based on the battery's current charge level. There is a negative correlation between the current battery charge and the indicator light breathing frequency; that is, the higher the current charge level, the lower the breathing frequency. The indicator light colors for different charge levels can be the same or different. If the indicator light colors are the same for different charge levels, it means the target vehicle is charging in progress, and the indicator light color will not change. The light color corresponding to the charging in progress state will be determined as the indicator light color, which can be green.
[0086] Optionally, the current battery charge level range is determined; the light color corresponding to the charge level range is determined as the indicator light color, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the charge level range is determined as the indicator light breathing frequency.
[0087] As an illustration, a color map can be set based on the current battery level. For example, when the battery level is in the first range (e.g., <20%), the indicator light is red; when the battery level is in the second range (e.g., 20% ≤ < 80%), the indicator light is yellow; and when the battery level is in the third range (e.g., ≥ 80%), the indicator light is green.
[0088] As an illustration, a breathing frequency mapping table for the indicator light can be set based on the current battery level. For example, when the battery level is in the third range (e.g., <20%), the indicator light breathing frequency is 20 times / minute; when the battery level is in the fourth range (e.g., 20% ≤ <80%), the indicator light breathing frequency is 15 times / minute; when the battery level is in the fifth range (e.g., 80% ≤ < 95%), the indicator light breathing frequency is 12 times / minute; and when the battery level is in the sixth range (e.g., ≥95%), the indicator light breathing frequency is 0.
[0089] In some embodiments, the charging indicator light includes multiple indicator lights.
[0090] Optionally, the illumination ratio of multiple indicator lights can be determined based on the current battery level. The current battery level is positively correlated with the illumination ratio of the multiple indicator lights.
[0091] In some embodiments, the current battery level is used as the illumination ratio for multiple indicator lights. For example, if the battery level is 50%, half of the indicator lights may be lit; if the battery level is 100%, all indicator lights will be lit.
[0092] Optionally, the charging indicator light consists of multiple small LEDs or other light-emitting elements surrounding the charging port. These indicator lights can be evenly distributed around the charging port to form a ring-shaped light strip. The proportion of the above-mentioned power level is reflected by the proportion of the indicator lights lit in the ring-shaped light strip.
[0093] In other embodiments, the charging indicator light consists of multiple small LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) or other light-emitting elements distributed at the rear of the vehicle. These indicator lights can be evenly distributed at the rear of the vehicle to form a linear light strip. The proportion of the indicator lights lit in the linear light strip reflects the aforementioned power level.
[0094] In the above embodiments, users can quickly understand the remaining battery power by observing the illumination of the indicator light. This intuitive display method is straightforward and easy to understand.
[0095] 6. Charging complete.
[0096] Optionally, when the charging status of the target vehicle changes from charging in progress to charging complete, the light color corresponding to the charging complete state is determined as the indicator light color, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the charging complete state is determined as the indicator light breathing frequency.
[0097] For illustrative purposes, the light color corresponding to the charging completion status can be green, and the breathing frequency corresponding to the charging completion status can be 0.
[0098] In other embodiments, the saturation of the indicator light color and the range of light intensity changes indicated by the indicator light breathing frequency can be determined according to the ambient light of the current environment, so as to dynamically adjust the saturation and light intensity of the indicator light to adapt to the ambient light.
[0099] The indicator light breathing frequency is used to determine the speed at which the indicator light intensity switches between a first brightness level and a second brightness level. Optionally, the ambient light intensity of the target vehicle's environment is collected; the first brightness level and the second brightness level are determined based on the ambient light intensity; and the saturation level corresponding to the indicator light color is determined based on the ambient light intensity.
[0100] This illustration demonstrates how a photosensor installed on a target vehicle detects the ambient light intensity. Optionally, the detected light intensity can be categorized into different levels, such as low, medium, and high.
[0101] In low-light environments, to improve the visibility of indicator lights, you can choose to use indicator light colors with higher saturation, such as those with a saturation of 80% or higher. High-saturation colors are more noticeable in dark environments. At the same time, you can set the first and second brightness levels to lower values, such as setting the first brightness to 0 and the second brightness to 50.
[0102] In medium lighting environments, you can choose an indicator light color with moderate saturation, such as an indicator light color with a saturation of less than 80% and greater than 50%. You can also set the first and second brightness levels to moderate levels, such as setting the first brightness to 30 and the second brightness to 80.
[0103] In brightly lit environments, you can choose an indicator light color with lower saturation, such as using an indicator light color with a saturation of less than or equal to 50%. At the same time, you can set the first and second brightness levels to higher levels, such as setting the first brightness to 50 and the second brightness to 100.
[0104] In other embodiments, the depth of the indicator light color can also be determined based on the current charging power.
[0105] Optionally, the current charging power of the target vehicle's battery can be obtained; the depth of the indicator light color can be determined based on the charging power.
[0106] To illustrate, there is a positive correlation between charging power and the depth of the indicator light color. For example, if the charging power is low, the indicator light color is light green; if the charging power is high, the indicator light color is dark green.
[0107] Step 330: Based on the indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency, determine the first control signal for the charging indicator light in the target vehicle.
[0108] The charging indicator light is used to indicate the indicator light installed at the charging port of the target vehicle.
[0109] Indicatively, once the indicator light color and breathing frequency are determined, the first control signal can be generated based on the indicator light color and breathing frequency.
[0110] In some embodiments, when the illumination ratio of multiple indicator lights is determined based on the current battery charge, the first control signal further includes illumination ratio information.
[0111] Optionally, a first control signal for multiple indicator lights is determined based on the illumination ratio, indicator light color, and indicator light breathing frequency; wherein the first control signal is used to illuminate multiple indicator lights according to the illumination ratio, and to control the illuminated indicator lights among the multiple indicator lights to display with indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency.
[0112] Indicatively, after generating the first control signal, it is sent to the driver circuit of the charging indicator light. Upon receiving the first control signal, the driver circuit illuminates a corresponding proportion of indicator lights according to the instructions in the first control signal, and controls these illuminated indicator lights to display with a specified color and breathing frequency. As the battery level changes, the first control signal needs to be updated in real time according to the battery level. For example, if the battery is fully charged, all indicator lights are lit; if the battery level is low, only some indicator lights are lit.
[0113] Step 340: Control the charging indicator light to display the indicator light color and breathing frequency through the first control signal.
[0114] Indicatively, a first control signal is sent to the driving circuit of the charging indicator light, thereby driving the charging indicator light to display with indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency.
[0115] In some embodiments, the charging indicator light refers to a light that can change color. Illustratively, if the indicator light is green, driving the charging indicator light to display that color means driving the charging indicator light to illuminate green; if the indicator light is red, driving the charging indicator light to display that color means driving the charging indicator light to illuminate red.
[0116] In other embodiments, the charging indicator light includes multiple indicator lights, each corresponding to a specific light color. For example, if an indicator light is green, the green indicator light in the charging indicator light will illuminate; if an indicator light is red, the red indicator light in the charging indicator light will illuminate.
[0117] In some embodiments, the charging indicator light will turn off when the target light-off conditions are met.
[0118] Optionally, the target light-off conditions include at least one of the following:
[0119] 1. When the target vehicle's power supply is off and the charging port has been open for a duration greater than or equal to the preset duration, turn off the charging indicator light.
[0120] The preset duration can be set to 15 seconds, which means that the charging indicator light will turn off when the vehicle's power is in the OFF position and the charging port is continuously open for 15 seconds.
[0121] 2. The charging port cover of the target vehicle will switch from open to closed, turning off the charging indicator light.
[0122] 3. When the charging status of the target vehicle changes to another status, turn off the charging indicator light.
[0123] Other states refer to states other than the above-mentioned states of not connected, charging preparation, charging heating, charging failure, charging in progress, charging completed, and charging reservation waiting.
[0124] 4. If the target vehicle's battery changes from charging to another value (e.g., discharging), turn off the charging indicator light.
[0125] 5. With the target vehicle in D (drive) or R (reverse) gear, turn off the charging indicator light.

[0128] 8. If the charging status of the target vehicle changes to another status after charging is complete, turn off the charging indicator light.
[0129] Indicatively, when charging is complete, the green charging indicator light will remain on. If the charging status of the target vehicle suddenly changes to another status, the charging indicator light will turn off.
[0130] In some embodiments, the charging indicator light can also be implemented as a projection light, in which case the projection of the charging indicator light can be determined according to the charging status.
[0131] Optionally, a projection pattern is determined based on the charging status of the target vehicle, and the projection pattern includes indication information indicating the charging status.
[0132] Indicatively, a first control signal is determined for the charging indicator light in the target vehicle based on the projection pattern; the charging indicator light is controlled to project the projection pattern using the first control signal.
[0133] The charging status indication information included in the projected pattern can be text information, such as "Charging, 50% charge" or "Fully charged"; or, the charging status indication information included in the projected pattern can be image information, such as a battery bar pattern or a battery pattern; or, the charging status indication information included in the projected pattern can be a combination of image information and text information, and this application embodiment does not limit this.
[0134] In other embodiments, the indicator light may also be a display unit in an indicator screen. Optionally, the display shape of the indicator light in the indicator screen is determined based on the charging status of the target vehicle, and the display shape is used to indicate the charging status.
[0135] The indicator screen can be the target vehicle's dashboard, central control screen, external LED screen, or any other suitable display. The display shape can be various graphics, icons, or animations, such as a battery icon, battery level bar, lightning bolt symbol, etc. Different charging states (such as charging, fully charged, low battery, etc.) can correspond to different display shapes.
[0136] In summary, the charging indicator control method provided in this application determines a first control signal for the vehicle's charging indicator by acquiring the vehicle's charging status. Based on this first control signal, the charging indicator is driven to display with a specific color and breathing frequency. Through the intuitive display of the charging indicator, users can quickly understand the vehicle's charging status, helping them to promptly identify problems during the charging process, such as poor charging connections or charging malfunctions, and thus take timely measures to improve the safety of the vehicle charging process. Furthermore, when the vehicle battery is charging, the breathing frequency of the charging indicator matches the battery's charge level; that is, the charging indicator can reflect the battery's charging progress in real time, allowing users to clearly know when charging is complete. This enables more precise control of charging time, avoiding overcharging or ineffective charging, thereby reducing the waste of electrical resources.
[0137] In some embodiments, the target vehicle also includes wheel arch lights, which are warning lights installed on the front / rear fenders (or wheel arches) of the target vehicle and clearly visible from both sides of the vehicle. In addition to indicating the vehicle's charging status via charging indicator lights, the wheel arch lights can also indicate the vehicle's charging status. (Illustratively, the above...) Figure 3 The illustrated embodiments can also be implemented as follows: Figure 4 Steps 410 to 442 are shown.
[0138] Step 410: Obtain the charging status of the target vehicle.
[0139] The charging status is used to indicate the charging status of the battery in the target vehicle.
[0140] Optionally, the charging status includes at least one of the following: charging preparation status, charging heating status, charging fault status, charging in progress status, charging completed status, and charging reservation waiting status.
[0141] Step 421: Determine the indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency based on the charging status.
[0142] The indicator light's breathing frequency is used to describe changes in its brightness. When the charging status indicates the battery is charging, the breathing frequency matches the battery's charge level. The indicator light color is used to describe the light's color. The indicator light's breathing frequency is used to describe changes in its brightness. Illustratively, the indicator light's breathing frequency is used to describe the speed at which the indicator light's brightness switches between a first brightness level and a second brightness level.
[0143] Different charging states correspond to different indicator light colors and breathing frequencies. For details on the indicator light colors and breathing frequencies for different charging states, please refer to step 320; they will not be repeated here.
[0144] Step 422: Determine the breathing frequency of the wheel arch lights based on the charging status.
[0145] The wheel arch light breathing frequency is used to indicate the change in the brightness of the wheel arch light. When the charging status indicates that the battery is charging, the wheel arch light breathing frequency matches the battery level.
[0146] Optionally, the breathing frequency of the wheel arch lights under different charging states will be explained below.
[0147] 1. Not connected.
[0148] Optionally, when the charging port cover of the target vehicle is open and the charging status is not connected, the target breathing frequency corresponding to the not connected status is determined as the wheel arch light breathing frequency.
[0149] For illustrative purposes, the target respiratory rate for the unconnected state could be 60 breaths per minute.
[0150] In other embodiments, when the target vehicle's battery is in a discharging state, the light color corresponding to the disconnected state is determined as the indicator light color, and the target breathing frequency corresponding to the disconnected state is determined as the wheel arch light breathing frequency.
[0151] It should be noted that the prerequisite for determining the target breathing frequency corresponding to the disconnected state as the wheel arch light breathing frequency also includes: the charging indicator light is enabled and the target vehicle is in N (neutral) or P (reverse).
[0152] In some embodiments, the number of breaths of the wheel arch lights in the vehicle can also be determined based on the charging status. When the charging port cover of the target vehicle is open and the charging status is disconnected, the target breathing frequency corresponding to the disconnected status is determined as the wheel arch light breathing frequency, and the target number of breaths corresponding to the disconnected status is determined as the wheel arch light breathing number. For example, the target breathing frequency can be 60 breaths / minute, and the target number of breaths can be 3, indicating that the wheel arch lights breathe 3 times at a frequency of 60 breaths / minute.
[0153] 2. Charging in progress.
[0154] Optionally, if the target vehicle is in the charging state, the current battery level is obtained; and the wheel arch light breathing frequency is determined based on the current battery level.
[0155] To illustrate, the current battery charge is negatively correlated with the breathing frequency of the wheel arch lights; that is, the higher the current battery charge, the lower the breathing frequency of the indicator lights.
[0156] Optionally, the current battery charge level range is determined; the target breathing frequency corresponding to the charge level range is determined as the indicator light breathing frequency.
[0157] As an illustration, a wheel arch light breathing frequency mapping table can be set based on the current battery level. For example, when the battery level is in the third range (e.g., <20%), the wheel arch light breathing frequency is 20 times / minute; when the battery level is in the fourth range (e.g., 20% ≤ <80%), the wheel arch light breathing frequency is 15 times / minute; when the battery level is in the fifth range (e.g., 80% ≤ < <95%), the wheel arch light breathing frequency is 12 times / minute; and when the battery level is in the sixth range (e.g., ≥95%), the wheel arch light breathing frequency is 0.
[0158] 3. Charging complete.
[0159] Optionally, when the charging state of the target vehicle changes from charging in progress to charging complete, the target breathing frequency corresponding to the charging complete state is determined as the wheel arch light breathing frequency.
[0160] Indicatively, the breathing frequency of the wheel arch lights can be 0 when the charging is complete, meaning the wheel arch lights are constantly on.
[0161] It should be noted that the wheel arch lights will not be activated, i.e., will not be lit, during the charging preparation, charging heating, charging fault, and charging reservation waiting states.
[0162] In other embodiments, when the target vehicle's speed is less than or equal to a preset speed (e.g., the preset speed is 0) and the target vehicle's charging port cover changes from an open state to a closed state, the target breathing frequency is determined as the wheel arch light breathing frequency, and the target breathing count is determined as the wheel arch light breathing count. For example, the target breathing frequency can be 60 times / minute, and the target breathing count can be 3 times, indicating that the wheel arch light breathes 3 times at a frequency of 60 times / minute.
[0163] Step 431: Based on the indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency, determine the first control signal for the charging indicator light in the target vehicle.
[0164] The charging indicator light is used to indicate the indicator light installed at the charging port of the target vehicle.
[0165] Step 432: Determine the second control signal for the wheel arch lights based on the breathing frequency of the wheel arch lights.
[0166] Indicatively, once the breathing frequency of the wheel arch lights is determined, a first control signal can be generated based on the breathing frequency of the wheel arch lights. Optionally, the wheel arch lights have preset light colors, such as yellow, red, etc.
[0167] Step 441: Control the charging indicator light to display the indicator light color and breathing frequency through the first control signal.
[0168] Indicatively, a first control signal is sent to the driving circuit of the charging indicator light, thereby driving the charging indicator light to display with indicator light color and indicator light breathing frequency.
[0169] Step 442: Control the wheel arch lights to display at the wheel arch light breathing frequency via the second control signal.
[0170] Indicatively, a second control signal is sent to the wheel arch light drive circuit, thereby driving the wheel arch light to display at the wheel arch light breathing frequency.
[0171] In some embodiments, when the number of wheel arch light breathing cycles is determined, a second control signal for the wheel arch light is determined based on the wheel arch light breathing frequency and the number of wheel arch light breathing cycles.
[0172] In some embodiments, the wheel arch lights will be turned off when the conditions for turning them off are met.
[0173] Optionally, the wheel arch lights can be turned off under at least one of the following conditions:
[0174] 1. When the charging is complete, if the wheel arch lights are illuminated for a duration greater than or equal to the preset duration (e.g., 5 minutes), turn off the wheel arch lights.
[0175] 2. If the charging status of the target vehicle changes to another status after charging is complete, turn off the wheel arch lights.
[0176] 3. When the target vehicle's speed is greater than the preset speed (e.g., the preset speed is 0) and the target vehicle's charging port cover is open, turn off the wheel arch lights.
[0177] In summary, the charging indicator control method provided in this application, on the one hand, determines a first control signal for the vehicle's charging indicator by acquiring the vehicle's charging status. Based on the first control signal, the charging indicator is driven to display with a specific color and breathing frequency. The charging indicator can reflect the battery's charging progress in real time, allowing the user to clearly know when charging is complete, thereby more accurately controlling charging time, avoiding overcharging or ineffective charging, and reducing waste of electrical resources. On the other hand, it determines a second control signal for the vehicle's wheel arch lights by acquiring the vehicle's charging status. Based on the second control signal, the wheel arch lights display with a characteristic breathing frequency. Additionally, the vehicle's external wheel arch lights reflect the charging status, serving to remind other road users, especially at night or in low-visibility environments, allowing other road users to more quickly identify that the vehicle is charging, thereby avoiding potential collision risks.
