AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing anti-pinch control methods for car windows have anti-pinch functions within the height range specified in the regulations. However, when the distance between the top of the window glass and the sealing strip is less than the minimum value of the preset distance range, the anti-pinch function is easily lost, posing a risk of limb injury. In addition, the anti-pinch force is fixed, which can easily injure children or affect the user experience.

Method used

The system uses a visual perception unit to collect image information inside and outside the vehicle. The cockpit domain controller and body domain controller identify the type of obstacle and the position of the window, and dynamically adjust the working mode of the window lifting actuator, including low-sensitivity anti-pinch, high-sensitivity anti-pinch, emergency mode and anti-lock mode. The anti-pinch strategy is adjusted according to the type of obstacle and the height of the window.

Benefits of technology

It ensures that the car window does not lose its anti-pinch function at any height, preventing injury to children's limbs, improving the user experience, and dynamically adjusting the anti-pinch force and speed to avoid problems caused by excessive or insufficient anti-pinch force.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of vehicle safety, and particularly relates to a vehicle window anti-pinch control method and system fusing visual perception. BACKGROUND

[0002] The anti-pinch of the vehicle window is an important part of the humanization of the vehicle, and its main function is to recognize that the vehicle window is in a pinched state when the vehicle window is pinched to an obstacle after being lifted, and to make the vehicle window retreat to release the pinched object, so as to prevent the motor from being burned due to long-time blockage and prevent the vehicle occupant from being pinched.

[0003] The existing anti-pinch control method of the vehicle window usually realizes the anti-pinch function of the vehicle window by detecting the motor current through a current sensor or detecting the motor speed through a Hall sensor. Specifically, when the electronic control unit drives the motor to rotate, the electronic control unit receives real-time current information from the current sensor or real-time speed information from the Hall sensor. When the current value in the real-time current information reaches the anti-pinch current value, the electronic control unit drives the motor to reverse, or when the speed of the motor in the real-time speed information changes, the electronic control unit controls the motor to stop rotating (so that the vehicle window stops rising) or to reverse (so that the vehicle window descends), thereby realizing the anti-pinch function of the vehicle window.

[0004] However, the existing anti-pinch control method of the vehicle window mostly only has the anti-pinch function within the specified height range (i.e., the distance between the top end of the vehicle window glass and the sealing strip above it is within the preset distance range), so that when the distance between the top end of the vehicle window glass and the sealing strip above it is less than the minimum value of the preset distance range, the vehicle window usually loses the anti-pinch function, causing a high risk of pinching the limbs in the area above the vehicle window glass close to the sealing strip. In addition, since the anti-pinch force of the vehicle window in the existing anti-pinch control method of the vehicle window is usually a fixed value within the specification range, it is easy to cause the limbs of children to be pinched due to the too large anti-pinch force, or the anti-pinch action of the vehicle window to be too sensitive due to the too small anti-pinch force, thereby affecting the use experience. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to solve the defects of the prior art, the present application provides a vehicle window anti-pinch control method and system that fuses visual perception to solve the technical problems that the existing vehicle window anti-pinch control method mostly only has an anti-pinch function within a specified height range (i.e., when the distance between the top end of the window glass and the sealing strip above it is within a preset distance range), so that when the distance between the top end of the window glass and the sealing strip above it is less than the minimum value of the preset distance range, the window usually loses the anti-pinch function, causing a greater risk of pinching limbs above the window glass near the sealing strip area; and because the anti-pinch force of the window in the existing vehicle window anti-pinch control method is usually calibrated to a fixed value within the specification range, it is easy to cause the technical problems that the anti-pinch force is too large and easily pinches the limbs of children, or the anti-pinch force is too small and causes the window anti-pinch action to be too sensitive and affect the use experience.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme of the present application is as follows:

[0007] A vehicle window anti-pinch control method that fuses visual perception, comprising:

[0008] The visual perception unit collects vehicle interior image information and vehicle exterior image information, and sends the vehicle interior image information and the vehicle exterior image information to the cabin domain controller in real time;

[0009] After the cabin domain controller receives the window lifting information of any window, the cabin domain controller identifies the obstacles at the corresponding window according to the received vehicle interior image information and vehicle exterior image information, and sends the obstacle-free information or obstacle type information of the corresponding window to the body domain controller according to the identification result;

[0010] The body domain controller selects the working mode of the glass lifting execution mechanism of the corresponding window according to the received obstacle-free information or obstacle type information of the corresponding window and the collected window position information of the corresponding window, and controls the glass lifting execution mechanism of the corresponding window to execute the function of the selected working mode.

[0011] The visual perception unit is used to collect the image information inside and outside the vehicle, and then the cabin domain controller identifies the obstacles at the corresponding window according to the received image information inside and outside the vehicle, to identify whether there are obstacles blocking the window glass from rising at the corresponding window, and further identify the type of the obstacles when there are obstacles; and then the identification result is sent to the vehicle body domain controller, so that the vehicle body domain controller can select the working mode of the glass lifting execution mechanism of the corresponding window according to the identification result and the collected window position information of the corresponding window, and control the glass lifting execution mechanism of the corresponding window to execute the selected working mode function; so that the automobile window anti-pinch control method provided by the application can comprehensively judge the working mode of the glass lifting execution mechanism of the corresponding window according to the different heights of the window (i.e. the different distances between the top end of the window glass and the sealing strip above it) and the different types of obstacles blocking the window from rising, execute different anti-pinch strategies, so that the window will not lose the anti-pinch function at any height, and the anti-pinch strategy can be adjusted (the size of the anti-pinch force is adjusted, the rising speed of the window glass is adjusted) according to the type of the obstacle, which can effectively avoid the technical problems that children's limbs are easily pinched due to the too large anti-pinch force, or the window anti-pinch action is too sensitive due to the too small anti-pinch force, affecting the use experience.

[0012] Further, after the cabin domain controller receives the window rising information of any window, the cabin domain controller preliminarily identifies the obstacles at the corresponding window according to the received image information inside and outside the vehicle;

[0013] If the preliminary identification result is that there is no obstacle at the corresponding window, the cabin domain controller sends the no-obstacle information of the corresponding window to the vehicle body domain controller; if the preliminary identification result is that there is an obstacle at the corresponding window, the cabin domain controller identifies the type of the obstacle at the corresponding window according to the received image information inside and outside the vehicle, and sends the obstacle type information of the corresponding window to the vehicle body domain controller according to the type identification result;

[0014] The obstacle type information includes the type identification result, and the identification result includes one of adult limbs, child limbs and other obstacles.

[0015] The cabin domain controller identifies the type of the obstacle as an adult limb, a child limb or other obstacles, so that the vehicle body domain controller can determine the working mode of the glass lifting execution mechanism of the corresponding window according to the identification result and the different heights of the window (i.e. the different distances between the top of the window glass and the sealing strip above it), and execute the corresponding anti-pinch strategy when the obstacle is an adult limb, a child limb or other obstacles.

[0016] Further, the method for the cabin domain controller to identify the type of the obstacle at the corresponding window according to the received vehicle interior image information and vehicle exterior image information comprises the following steps:

[0017] Step 1: The cabin domain controller determines whether the obstacle at the corresponding window is a human limb according to the received vehicle interior image information and vehicle exterior image information. If yes, go to Step 2; otherwise, determine that the type identification result is other obstacles.

[0018] Step 2: The cabin domain controller determines whether the obstacle at the corresponding window is a child limb according to the received vehicle interior image information and vehicle exterior image information. If yes, determine that the type identification result is a child limb; otherwise, determine that the type identification result is an adult limb.

[0019] Further, the working mode of the glass lifting execution mechanism includes a low-sensitivity anti-pinch mode, a high-sensitivity anti-pinch mode, an emergency mode and an anti-stall mode.

[0020] The method for the vehicle body domain controller to control any glass lifting execution mechanism to execute the low-sensitivity anti-pinch mode comprises: the vehicle body domain controller controls the glass lifting execution mechanism of the window to drive the window glass of the window to rise at a first speed, and at the same time, the vehicle body domain controller sets the anti-pinch force of the glass lifting execution mechanism of the window at a first anti-pinch force value.

[0021] The method for the vehicle body domain controller to control any glass lifting execution mechanism to execute the high-sensitivity anti-pinch mode comprises: the vehicle body domain controller controls the glass lifting execution mechanism of the window to drive the window glass of the window to rise at a second speed, and at the same time, the vehicle body domain controller sets the anti-pinch force of the glass lifting execution mechanism of the window at a second anti-pinch force value.

[0022] The method for the vehicle body domain controller to control any glass lifting execution mechanism to execute the emergency mode comprises: the vehicle body domain controller controls the glass lifting execution mechanism of the window to drive the window glass of the window to descend.

[0023] The method for controlling any glass lifting actuator to execute the anti-stall mode by the body domain controller comprises: the body domain controller controls the glass lifting actuator of the vehicle window to drive the vehicle window glass of the vehicle window to rise at a third speed, and simultaneously, the body domain controller detects the running current value of the motor of the glass lifting actuator of the vehicle window, and if the running current value is detected to be not less than the stall current value, the body domain controller controls the glass lifting actuator of the vehicle window to drive the vehicle window glass of the vehicle window to descend.

[0024] The first speed is greater than the second speed, and the first anti-pinch force value is greater than the second anti-pinch force value.

[0025] Further, the method for selecting the working mode of the glass lifting actuator of the corresponding vehicle window comprises:

[0029] Further, when the body domain controller collects the vehicle window position information of a certain vehicle window, the distance between the top of the vehicle window glass of the vehicle window and the vehicle window sealing strip above the vehicle window glass is within the preset distance range.

[0030] If the body domain controller receives the result of type identification in the obstacle type information of the vehicle window as other obstacles, the body domain controller selects the working mode of the glass lifting actuator of the vehicle window as the low-sensitivity anti-pinch mode.

[0031] If the type recognition result in the obstacle type information of the window received by the vehicle body domain controller is an adult limb or a child limb, the vehicle body domain controller selects the operation mode of the glass lifting actuator of the window as the high-sensitivity anti-pinch mode.

[0032] Further, when the window position information of a certain window collected by the vehicle body domain controller is that the distance between the top of the window glass of the window and the window sealing strip above it is less than the minimum value of the preset distance range;

[0033] If the type recognition result in the obstacle type information of the window received by the vehicle body domain controller is other obstacles, the vehicle body domain controller selects the operation mode of the glass lifting actuator of the window as the low-sensitivity anti-pinch mode.

[0034] If the type recognition result in the obstacle type information of the window received by the vehicle body domain controller is an adult limb, the vehicle body domain controller selects the operation mode of the glass lifting actuator of the window as the high-sensitivity anti-pinch mode.

The fusion visual perception automobile window anti-pinch control method provided by the application can comprehensively judge the working mode of the glass lifting execution mechanism of the corresponding window according to the different heights of the window (i.e. the different distances between the top of the window glass and the sealing strip above it) and the different types of obstacles blocking the window from rising, execute different anti-pinch strategies, make the window not lose the anti-pinch function at any height, and adjust the anti-pinch strategy (adjust the size of the anti-pinch force, adjust the rising speed of the window glass) according to the type of the obstacle, which can effectively avoid the technical problems of easily pinching the child's limbs due to the too large anti-pinch force, or the too sensitive window anti-pinch action due to the too small anti-pinch force affecting the use experience.

[0056] The cabin domain controller receives the window lifting information of any window, and identifies the obstacle at the corresponding window according to the received interior image information and exterior image information, and sends the obstacle-free information or obstacle type information of the corresponding window to the body domain controller according to the identification result;

[0058] The obstacle type information includes a type identification result, and the identification result includes one of an adult limb, a child limb, and other obstacles.

[0059] By identifying the type of the obstacle as an adult limb, a child limb, or other obstacles by the cabin domain controller, the vehicle body domain controller can determine the working mode of the glass lifting execution mechanism of the corresponding window according to the identification result and in combination with the different heights of the window (i.e., the different distances between the top end of the window glass and the sealing strip above the window glass), to execute the corresponding anti-pinch strategy when the obstacle is an adult limb, a child limb, or other obstacles.
