Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle control technology, and in particular to a method, device, and storage medium for indicating the refueling status of a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] If the fuel nozzle is not removed promptly after refueling, the driver may unknowingly start the vehicle with the nozzle still attached, dragging it along. This could damage the refueling equipment or even cause a fire. Therefore, preventing drivers from starting their vehicles with the fuel nozzle still attached is crucial for ensuring the integrity of the refueling equipment, the safety of the vehicle and gas station, and the safety of people inside and outside the vehicle. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This application provides a method, device, and storage medium for indicating the refueling status of a vehicle, which can be used to ensure the integrity of refueling equipment and the safety of the vehicle and gas station. The technical solution is as follows:

[0004] On one hand, embodiments of this application provide a method for indicating the refueling status of a vehicle, the method comprising:

[0005] The opening and closing status of the vehicle's fuel tank opening is obtained, including the fuel tank opening being open and the fuel tank opening being closed.

[0006] In response to the opening and closing status of the fuel tank opening, the fuel tank opening is opened, and a first detection result and a second detection result are obtained. The first detection result is used to indicate whether the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result is used to indicate whether the vehicle's driving speed is lower than a speed threshold.

[0007] In response to the first detection result indicating that the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result indicating that the vehicle's speed is below the speed threshold, a prompt is made to indicate that the vehicle is in refueling mode, and the vehicle's power is interrupted.

[0008] On the other hand, a vehicle refueling status indicator is provided, the indicator comprising:

[0009] The first acquisition module is used to acquire the opening and closing status of the vehicle's fuel tank opening, which includes the fuel tank opening being open and the fuel tank opening being closed.

[0010] The second acquisition module is used to open the fuel tank opening in response to the opening and closing status of the fuel tank opening, and acquire a first detection result and a second detection result. The first detection result is used to indicate whether the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result is used to indicate whether the vehicle's driving speed is lower than a speed threshold.

[0011] The first prompting module is used to prompt that the vehicle is in refueling mode in response to the first detection result indicating that the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result indicating that the vehicle's driving speed is lower than the speed threshold, and to interrupt the vehicle's power.

[0012] On the other hand, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium is also provided, characterized in that the computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program, which is loaded and executed by a processor to implement any of the above-described methods for indicating the vehicle refueling status.

[0014] The technical solution provided in this application brings at least the following beneficial effects:

[0015] This application, when the fuel tank opening is open, determines whether the vehicle's location is within the range of a gas station and whether the vehicle's speed is below a speed threshold, thereby determining whether the fuel tank opening was accidentally left open or the vehicle is in the process of refueling. When the fuel tank opening is open, the vehicle's location is within the range of a gas station, and the second detection result indicates that the vehicle's speed is below the speed threshold, the application indicates that the vehicle is in refueling mode. At this time, the application prompts the vehicle to be in refueling mode and interrupts the vehicle's power to prevent the driver from starting the vehicle while it is refueling, thus protecting the safety of the vehicle, the gas station, and the people inside and outside the vehicle.

[0020] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a vehicle refueling status indicator provided in an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] This application provides a method for indicating the refueling status of a vehicle. Please refer to [the relevant documentation]. Figure 1 The diagram illustrates an implementation environment for the method provided in this application embodiment. This implementation environment may include: a fuel tank cap position sensor 11, a navigation system 12, a wheel speed sensor 13, an HCU (Hybrid Control Unit) 14, a current transformer 15, a voltage sensor 16, a motor speed sensor 17, a torque sensor 18, an ECU (Electronic Control Unit) 19, a display screen 20, and an audio system 21.

[0023] Optionally, the HCU14 detects whether the fuel tank cap is open via the fuel tank cap position sensor 11. If the fuel tank cap is open, it indicates that the fuel tank opening where the fuel tank cap is located is open. In response to the opening of the fuel tank opening, the HCU14 obtains the vehicle's location and the location of gas stations within a preset range of the vehicle via the navigation system 12 installed on the vehicle; the HCU14 also collects the vehicle's speed via the wheel speed sensor 13.

[0024] For example, if the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station and the vehicle's speed is below the speed threshold, the vehicle is indicated to be in refueling mode, that is, the refueling nozzle is inserted into the vehicle's fuel tank opening. The text indicating that the vehicle is in refueling mode is displayed on the display screen 20, the voice message indicating that the vehicle is in refueling mode is broadcast through the vehicle's internal audio system 21, and the vehicle's power is interrupted.

[0025] In one possible implementation, before interrupting the vehicle's power, the HCU14 measures the current intensity inside the motor via a current transformer 15 mounted on the motor, measures the AC voltage inside the motor via a voltage sensor 16 mounted on the motor, measures the motor speed via a motor speed sensor 17 mounted on the motor, and measures the motor torque via a torque sensor 18 mounted on the motor. The HCU14 then reads the operating status of the internal combustion engine via the ECU19 to determine the vehicle's drive mode and cuts off the power source corresponding to the vehicle's drive mode.

[0026] Optionally, the fuel tank cap position sensor 11, navigation system 12, wheel speed sensor 13, HCU 14, current transformer 15, voltage sensor 16, motor speed sensor 17, torque sensor 18, ECU 19, display screen 20, and audio system 21 establish a communication connection via wired or wireless network.

[0027] Based on the above Figure 1 The implementation environment shown in this application embodiment provides a method for indicating the refueling status of a vehicle. Figure 2 As shown, taking the application of this method to HCU as an example, the method includes steps 201-203.

[0028] In step 201, the HCU obtains the opening and closing status of the vehicle's fuel tank opening, which includes the fuel tank opening being open and the fuel tank opening being closed.

[0029] In one possible implementation, obtaining the opening / closing status of the vehicle's fuel tank opening includes: the HCU can detect whether the fuel tank cap is open using a fuel tank cap position sensor, thereby determining the opening / closing status of the fuel tank opening where the fuel tank cap is located. When the fuel tank cap position sensor detects that the fuel tank cap is open, it indicates that the fuel tank opening is open; when the fuel tank cap position sensor detects that the fuel tank cap is closed, it indicates that the fuel tank opening is closed. The fuel tank cap position sensor is located near the fuel tank opening, and the opening / closing status of the fuel tank opening includes both open and closed states.

[0030] In step 202, in response to the opening and closing of the fuel tank opening (i.e., the fuel tank opening is open), the HCU acquires a first detection result and a second detection result. The first detection result is used to indicate whether the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result is used to indicate whether the vehicle's driving speed is lower than the speed threshold.

[0031] Optionally, after determining that the fuel tank opening is open, the HCU acquires a first detection result and a second detection result. The first detection result indicates whether the vehicle's location is within the range of a gas station, and the second detection result indicates whether the vehicle's speed is below a speed threshold. For example, acquiring the first detection result includes: acquiring the vehicle's location; comparing the vehicle's location with the location of a gas station within a preset range of the vehicle; and, in response to the vehicle's location being within the location of at least one gas station within the preset range of the vehicle, the first detection result indicates that the vehicle's location is within the range of the gas station.

[0032] In one possible implementation, the vehicle's location and the location of gas stations within a preset range can be obtained through a navigation system installed on the vehicle. The preset range can be set to an administrative region, such as a district, county, or city, or it can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0033] For example, the HCU obtains the second detection result by: the HCU can collect the vehicle's driving speed through the wheel speed sensor installed on the vehicle; after the wheel speed sensor collects the vehicle's driving speed, it converts the vehicle's driving speed into a corresponding electrical signal and sends it to the HCU; after the HCU receives the electrical signal, it converts the electrical signal into the corresponding wheel rotation speed, and then determines the vehicle's driving speed based on the vehicle's rotation speed.

[0034] Optionally, after determining the vehicle's speed, the vehicle's speed is compared with a speed threshold. If the vehicle's speed is greater than or equal to the speed threshold, the second detection result indicates that the vehicle's speed is greater than or equal to the speed threshold; if the vehicle's speed is less than the speed threshold, the second detection result indicates that the vehicle's speed is less than the speed threshold.

[0035] In step 203, in response to the first detection result indicating that the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result indicating that the vehicle's driving speed is below the speed threshold, the HCU prompts that the vehicle is in refueling mode and interrupts the vehicle's power.

[0036] In one possible implementation, if the first detection result indicates that the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result indicates that the vehicle's driving speed is below a speed threshold, the HCU will prompt that the vehicle is in refueling mode, including: displaying the refueling mode via text and broadcasting the refueling mode via voice.

[0037] For example, if the first detection result indicates that the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result indicates that the vehicle's driving speed is below a speed threshold, indicating that the vehicle is in a refueling state, that is, the refueling nozzle is inserted into the vehicle's fuel tank opening, the HCU will prompt that the vehicle is in a refueling state, including: the HCU displays the text "the vehicle is in a refueling state" on the display screen of the vehicle's central control, and broadcasts the voice "the vehicle is in a refueling state" through the vehicle's internal audio system.

[0038] Optionally, before interrupting the vehicle's power, the vehicle's driving mode is obtained, including: detecting the operating status of the electric motor and the internal combustion engine, wherein the operating status of the electric motor includes whether the electric motor is working or not working, and the operating status of the internal combustion engine includes whether the internal combustion engine is working or not working.

[0039] In one possible implementation, the HCU detects the operating state of the motor by: measuring the current intensity inside the motor through a current transformer installed on the motor, measuring the AC voltage inside the motor through a voltage sensor installed on the motor, measuring the motor speed through a motor speed sensor installed on the motor, and measuring the motor torque through a torque sensor installed on the motor.

[0040] For example, after determining the internal current intensity, internal AC voltage, motor speed, and motor torque of the motor, it is then determined whether the internal current intensity, internal AC voltage, motor speed, and motor torque are within the parameter range when the motor is operating. If the internal current intensity, internal AC voltage, motor speed, and motor torque are all within the parameter range when the motor is operating, it indicates that the motor is working. The parameter range when the motor is operating can be pre-calibrated experimentally.

[0041] Optionally, the HCU detects the operating status of the internal combustion engine, including: the HCU reads the operating status of the internal combustion engine from the ECU via a bus, wherein the bus can be a CAN (Controller Area Network) bus.

[0042] For example, after determining the operating states of the electric motor and the internal combustion engine, the HCU interrupts the vehicle's power, including: cutting off the power source corresponding to the vehicle's drive mode. If the electric motor is operating and the internal combustion engine is not operating, the electric motor is controlled to stop operating; if the electric motor is not operating and the internal combustion engine is operating, the internal combustion engine is controlled to stop operating; if both the electric motor and the internal combustion engine are operating, both the electric motor and the internal combustion engine are controlled to stop operating.

[0043] In one possible implementation, after the HCU interrupts the vehicle's power, it switches to a closed position in response to the opening and closing status of the vehicle's fuel tank opening, stops prompting the vehicle to be in refueling mode, and restores the vehicle's power.

[0044] For example, after the vehicle's power is interrupted, the HCU continuously monitors the opening and closing status of the vehicle's fuel tank opening. If the fuel tank opening is detected to be closed, it indicates that the fuel nozzle is no longer inserted into the vehicle's fuel tank. The HCU stops the display screen and audio from indicating that the vehicle is in refueling mode and restores the power source corresponding to the drive mode before the vehicle's power source was cut off.

[0045] Optionally, if the fuel tank opening is open, in response to a first detection result indicating that the vehicle's location information is not within the range of the gas station, and a second detection result indicating that the vehicle's driving speed is not lower than at least one of the speed thresholds, a prompt is made indicating that the vehicle's fuel tank opening is not closed.

[0046] In one possible implementation, the first detection result indicates that the vehicle's location information is not within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result indicates that the vehicle's driving speed is not lower than at least one of the speed thresholds, indicating that the vehicle is not in the refueling state but the fuel tank cap is not closed, that is, the fuel nozzle is not in the state of being inserted into the vehicle's fuel tank opening but the fuel tank opening is open, for example, forgetting to close the fuel tank cap after refueling and removing the fuel nozzle.

[0047] Optionally, a notification may be provided indicating that the vehicle's fuel tank opening is not closed, including: the HCU displaying the text "The vehicle's fuel tank opening is not closed" on the vehicle's central control screen and broadcasting a voice message "The vehicle's fuel tank opening is not closed" through the vehicle's internal audio system.

[0048] For example, in response to the opening and closing of the fuel tank opening, if the fuel tank opening is open but the HCU cannot obtain the first detection result (e.g., if at least one of the vehicle's location obtained through the navigation system or the location of the gas station is inaccurate), the vehicle can broadcast its license plate number and a predetermined communication channel via a public address system, and inquire about the vehicle's refueling status. When the gas station receives the broadcast, it searches the gas station's video feed to see if the broadcasting vehicle is present. If image recognition technology identifies the broadcasting vehicle in the video feed and shows a fuel nozzle inserted into it, the station replies to the broadcasting vehicle via the predetermined channel, indicating that the vehicle is refueling. Upon receiving the gas station's notification, the HCU alerts the vehicle to the refueling status and interrupts the vehicle's power to prevent the driver from starting the vehicle while it is refueling, thus avoiding potential danger.

[0049] Optionally, when the fuel tank opening status changes from open to closed, indicating that the fuel nozzle is no longer inserted into the vehicle's fuel tank, the HCU stops indicating that the vehicle is in refueling mode and restores the vehicle's power source.

[0050] In one possible implementation, if the vehicle being driven is a gasoline-powered vehicle, the ECU can be used as the execution entity to collect data on the opening and closing of the fuel tank opening, the vehicle's speed, the vehicle's location, and the location of the gas station, similar to that used in hybrid vehicles. The ECU then analyzes the acquired data to determine whether it is necessary to prompt the vehicle to refuel or to interrupt the vehicle's power. In this case, the power for a pure gasoline vehicle is provided by an internal combustion engine.

[0051] Combining the above methods and processes, with Figure 3 The schematic diagram of a vehicle refueling status notification provided in this application is used as an example for illustration. The execution entity can be an HCU (Hydraulic Control Unit). The HCU obtains the opening and closing status of the fuel tank opening, the vehicle's speed, the vehicle's location, and the location of the gas station via the CAN bus. It then analyzes the acquired data to determine whether it is necessary to notify the vehicle that it is refueling and whether to interrupt the vehicle's power supply.

[0052] In this embodiment, when the fuel tank opening is open, the system determines whether the vehicle's location is within the gas station's range and whether the vehicle's speed is below a speed threshold to determine whether the fuel tank opening was accidentally left open or the vehicle is in the process of refueling. When the fuel tank opening is open, the vehicle's location is within the gas station's range, and the second detection result indicates that the vehicle's speed is below the speed threshold, the system indicates that the vehicle is in refueling mode. At this time, the system alerts the driver to the refueling mode and interrupts the vehicle's power to prevent the driver from starting the vehicle while it is refueling, thus protecting the safety of the vehicle, the gas station, and the people inside and outside the vehicle.

[0053] See Figure 4 This application provides a vehicle refueling status indicator, which includes:

[0054] The first acquisition module 401 is used to acquire the opening and closing status of the vehicle's fuel tank opening, which includes the fuel tank opening being open and the fuel tank opening being closed.

[0055] The second acquisition module 402 is used to acquire a first detection result and a second detection result in response to the opening and closing of the fuel tank opening, i.e. the fuel tank opening is open. The first detection result is used to indicate whether the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station, and the second detection result is used to indicate whether the vehicle's driving speed is lower than the speed threshold.

[0056] The first prompt module 403 is used to prompt that the vehicle is in refueling mode in response to the first detection result indicating that the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station and the second detection result indicating that the vehicle's driving speed is lower than the speed threshold, and to interrupt the vehicle's power.

[0057] In one possible implementation, the device further includes: a second prompting module, configured to, when the fuel tank opening is open, prompt the user that the fuel tank opening is not closed in response to a first detection result indicating that the vehicle's location information is not within the range of the gas station, and a second detection result indicating that the vehicle's driving speed is not lower than at least one of the speed thresholds.

[0058] In one possible implementation, the third acquisition module is used to acquire the vehicle's location; compare the vehicle's location with the location of gas stations within a preset range of the vehicle; and in response to the vehicle's location being within the location of at least one gas station within the preset range of the vehicle, the first detection result indicates that the vehicle's location information is within the range of the gas station.

[0059] In one possible implementation, the first prompt module 403 is used to display the vehicle being refueled via text and to announce the vehicle being refueled via voice.

[0060] In one possible implementation, the first prompt module 403 is further configured to switch to a closed state when the fuel tank opening of the vehicle is switched to a closed state, stop prompting that the vehicle is in refueling mode, and restore the vehicle's power.

[0061] In one possible implementation, the first prompting module 403 is also used to obtain the driving mode of the vehicle.

[0062] In one possible implementation, the first prompting module 403 is used to cut off the power source corresponding to the vehicle's driving mode.

[0063] When the fuel tank opening is open, this device determines whether the vehicle's location is within the gas station's range and whether the vehicle's speed is below a speed threshold, thus determining whether the fuel tank opening was accidentally left open or the vehicle is in the process of refueling. When the fuel tank opening is open, the vehicle's location is within the gas station's range, and the second detection result indicates that the vehicle's speed is below the speed threshold, the device indicates that the vehicle is in refueling mode. At this time, the device alerts the driver to the refueling status and interrupts the vehicle's power supply to prevent the driver from starting the vehicle while it is refueling, thereby protecting the safety of the vehicle, the gas station, and the people inside and outside the vehicle.
