Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of electric vehicle door technology, and in particular to an anti-collision system, anti-collision method and vehicle for an electric opening and closing door. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, electric door sensors use either millimeter-wave or ultrasonic radar. Millimeter-wave radar is not only expensive, but it also cannot penetrate metal, resulting in only one radar per door in electric vehicles, leading to a large blind spot. Some models use ultrasonic radar, but its detection range is smaller than millimeter-wave radar, resulting in an even larger blind spot. Ultrasonic radar also cannot directly penetrate metal. Some models place the ultrasonic radar on the outer door panel of the back of the door by adding a vibration damping plate, but this significantly impacts the door's weight and cost.
[0003] While electric doors increase vehicle convenience, they also bring risks of damage. For example, when opening, the door may collide with obstacles that are difficult to see under the vehicle, such as curbs or concrete blocks. There's even a risk of the rear edge of the door scraping against a passenger's head. Therefore, electric doors need to be equipped with different radar systems to detect potential collisions with surrounding obstacles during opening, thus preventing door damage or personal injury. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This application provides an anti-collision system, anti-collision method, and vehicle for electric opening and closing doors, in order to solve the problem in the related technology that electric doors may collide with obstacles that are not easily visible under the vehicle, such as curbs or concrete blocks, when they are opened, and that passengers' heads may be scraped when the electric doors are opened, resulting in safety risks.
[0005] Firstly, a collision avoidance system for electrically operated vehicle doors is provided, comprising:
[0006] The first radar is installed on the outside door handle;
[0007] A second radar and a third radar are horizontally spaced on the lower anti-scratch strip of the car door; wherein, the first radar is used to detect the upper sharp corner area of the car door, the first radar and the third radar are used to detect the rear edge contour area of the car door; the second radar and the third radar are used to detect the lower edge area of the car door.
[0008] An electric door controller is connected to the first radar, the second radar, and the third radar to control the movement of the door using the detection signals from the first radar, the second radar, and the third radar.
[0009] In some embodiments, the first radar is an ultrasonic radar with an inherent blind zone distance of L0 and a horizontal FOV angle of 2β; in the horizontal direction from the upper corner of the door to the door hinge, the horizontal distance between the first radar and the upper corner of the door is L3, where L3 ≤ L0 * tanβ.
[0010] In some embodiments, the total length of the door is L; the second and third radars are ultrasonic radars; the horizontal distance between the second radar near the door hinge and the side of the door near the door hinge is L1; the horizontal distance between the third radar near the rear edge of the door and the rear edge of the door is L2; the horizontal distance between the second and third radars is L4.
[0011] The L = L1 + L2 + L4.
[0012] In some embodiments, the maximum opening angle of the door is α;
[0013] L1 ≤ L0 / tanα + L0*tanβ; L2 ≤ L0*tanβ; L4 ≤ 2*L0*tanβ.
[0014] In some embodiments, the elevation angle of the second and third radars is γ1, so that the height H between the lower edge of their FOV and the ground is greater than the design height.
[0015] The first radar has an elevation angle of γ2 so that its FOV can cover the height of the upper angle area of the door in the door height direction.
[0016] In some embodiments, γ1 is 10° to 20°, γ2 is 5° to 10°, and H is 195mm to 205mm.
[0017] Secondly, a collision avoidance method for electrically operated vehicle doors is provided, which includes the following steps:
[0018] Before the electric door opens, the second and third radars in the electric door opening and closing collision avoidance system are used to detect the height of road obstacles.
[0019] If the height of the obstacle on the road is greater than the design height, the electric door controller will prevent the electric door from opening; otherwise, it will control the electric door to open, and during the opening process, the first radar in the electric door's anti-collision system will detect whether an obstacle is detected in the upper corner area of the door; if an obstacle is detected, the electric door will pause the opening action; if no obstacle is detected, the electric door will continue to open.
[0020] In some embodiments, during the opening of the electric door, the first radar and the third radar are used to detect the rear edge contour area of the door. When an obstacle is detected, the electric door is controlled to pause the opening action; when no obstacle is detected, the electric door is controlled to continue opening.
[0021] In some embodiments, if an obstacle is detected in at least one of the upper sharp corner area and the rear edge contour area of the electric vehicle door during the opening process, the electric vehicle door is controlled to pause the opening action; otherwise, the electric vehicle door is controlled to continue opening.
[0022] Thirdly, a vehicle is provided, comprising:
[0023] A collision avoidance system for electrically operated doors; each electrically operated door is equipped with a first radar, a second radar, and a third radar.
[0024] The beneficial effects of the technical solution provided in this application include:
[0025] This application provides an anti-collision system, method, and vehicle for an electric door. A first radar is mounted on the outward-opening handle of the door; a second and third radar, horizontally spaced, are mounted on the lower anti-scratch strip of the door. Since the outward-opening handle and the lower anti-scratch strip are made of injection-molded plastic, the radars are easily installed. The first radar detects the upper sharp corner area of the door, while the first and third radars detect the rear edge contour area of the door. The second and third radars detect the lower edge area of the door. This system detects obstacles that are difficult to detect when the electric door is opened, while preventing the rear edge of the door from scraping against the passenger's head, thus avoiding safety risks.

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0033] While electric doors increase vehicle convenience, they also bring risks of damage. For example, when opening, the door may collide with obstacles that are difficult to see under the vehicle, such as curbs or concrete blocks. There's even a risk of the rear edge of the door scraping against a passenger's head. Therefore, electric doors need to be equipped with different radar systems to detect potential collisions with surrounding obstacles during opening, thus preventing door damage or personal injury.
[0034] For details, please refer to... Figure 1 The situation shown is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the left-hand diagram, during the opening of an electric door, at the same opening angle, the further away the door area is from the hinge axis, the greater the distance it travels, and the greater the risk of encountering obstacles when opening. Figure 1 As shown in the right-hand image, the lower part of the car door presents the most obstacles during the actual opening process, such as curbs, concrete blocks, and traffic cones. Therefore, identifying the key collision avoidance area of the electric door is crucial. Secondly, the sharp corners of the door may scrape a person's head during opening, making these areas also important to identify. In summary, the three key collision avoidance areas for electric doors are: A) the rear edge contour area of the door; B) the lower edge area of the door; and C) the upper sharp corner area of the door.
[0035] Furthermore, considering that millimeter-wave radar is not only expensive but also cannot penetrate metal, and that only one radar is installed on each electric vehicle door, resulting in a large blind zone, the radar installation needs to meet ease of installation requirements.
[0036] Therefore, the solution of this application analyzes the operating conditions of electric doors, analyzes the layout of the ultrasonic radar detection envelope (FOV), and utilizes the material characteristics of the lower anti-scratch strip and the outward opening handle of the door, which are both plastic injection molded parts, to finally provide an anti-collision system for electric doors. The special ultrasonic radar layout structure can improve the detection capability of electric doors.
[0037] The following is a detailed explanation:
[0038] Firstly, reference Figure 2 As shown, a collision avoidance system for electrically operated vehicle doors is provided, comprising:
[0039] The first radar 1 is installed on the door handle outside the vehicle;
[0040] A second radar 2 and a third radar 3 are horizontally spaced on the lower anti-scratch strip of the car door; wherein, the first radar 1 is used to detect the upper sharp corner area of the car door, the first radar 1 and the third radar 3 are used to detect the rear edge contour area of the car door; the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 are used to detect the lower edge area of the car door.
[0041] The electric door controller is connected to the first radar 1, the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 to control the movement of the door through the detection signals of the first radar 1, the second radar 2 and the third radar 3; the first radar 1, the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 are bidirectionally connected to the electric door controller, and the output of the electric door controller is connected to the LIN or CAN network, thereby connecting to the vehicle controller and the on-board chip.
[0042] With the above configuration, since the door handle and the lower door anti-scratch strip are made of plastic injection molding, it is easy to install radar without drilling holes in the door sheet metal, resulting in a more harmonious and perfect appearance. The first radar 1 and the third radar 3 are used to detect the rear edge contour area of the door; the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 are used to detect the lower edge area of the door. This enables the detection of obstacles that are not easily detected at the bottom when the electric door is opened, while avoiding the safety risk of the rear edge area of the door scraping against the passenger's head when the electric door is opened.
[0043] In some preferred embodiments, to enhance the detection capabilities of the lower edge region of the door, the upper sharp corner region of the door, and the rear edge contour region of the door, the arrangement and form of the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 are designed as follows:
[0044] The total length of the car door is L; the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 are ultrasonic radars; the horizontal distance between the second radar 2 and the side of the car door near the door hinge is L1; the horizontal distance between the third radar 3 and the rear edge of the car door is L2; the horizontal distance between the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 is L4.
[0045] L = L1 + L2 + L4. The maximum opening angle of the car door is α; L1 ≤ L0 / tanα + L0*tanβ; L2 ≤ L0*tanβ; L4 ≤ 2*L0*tanβ.
[0046] The first radar 1 is an ultrasonic radar with an inherent blind zone distance of L0 and a horizontal FOV angle of 2β. In the horizontal direction from the upper corner of the door to the door hinge, the horizontal distance between the first radar 1 and the upper corner of the door is L3, where L3 ≤ L0 * tanβ.
[0047] The above can be used as a reference. Figure 3 and Figure 2 As shown, to meet the requirements of key area detection, the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 are positioned such that L1 > L2. L0 is the inherent blind zone distance of the radar. For example, the inherent blind zone L0 of existing ultrasonic radar is 15mm to 30mm. The maximum opening angle of the car door is α, the total length of the car door is L, and the horizontal FOV angle of the ultrasonic radar is 2β, typically with a value of 55° to 65°. The second radar 2 is positioned close to the front of the car door, with L1 ≤ L0 / tanα + L0*tanβ. In practice, L1 can be slightly smaller than the calculated value. The third radar 3 is positioned close to the rear area of the car door, and its distance L2 from the edge of the car door satisfies L2 ≤ L0*tanβ. Similarly, to ensure that the ultrasonic radar can detect the rear edge area of the car door, the first radar 1 is positioned with an X-axis dimension L3 ≤ L0*tanβ. The X-axis is the horizontal direction from the upper corner area of the door to the door hinge; in order to avoid a detection blind spot between the second radar 2 and the third radar 3, the distance L4 between the ultrasonic radar second radar 2 and the third radar 3 is ≤ 2*L0*tanβ.
[0048] With the above setup, the two ultrasonic radars on the lower door anti-scratch strip are combined. Based on the L1, L2, L3, and L4 dimensions of the radar FOV arrangement and combined with the characteristics of the electric rotating door opening, the detection capability of the lower edge area of the door, the upper sharp corner area of the door, and the rear edge contour area of the door can be enhanced, which can ensure the key protection and detection of the rear edge contour area of the door.
[0049] In some preferred embodiments, to effectively enable smooth door opening for low obstacles and door detection stopping for higher obstacles, and to prevent the electric door from scraping passengers' heads when opening, without requiring special design algorithms, the following settings are provided:
[0050] Reference Appendix Figure 4 The elevation angle of the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 is γ1, so that the height H between the lower edge of the FOV and the ground is greater than the design height.
[0051] The first radar 1 has an elevation angle of γ2, so that its FOV can cover the height of the upper angle area of the door in the direction of door height.
[0052] γ1 is 10°~20°, γ2 is 5°~10°; H is 195mm-205mm.
[0053] The ultrasonic radar is positioned at a height H greater than the design height, with the lower edge of its field of view (FOV) above the ground. This is placed on the lower door rub strip. To ensure that the ultrasonic radar has different detection capabilities for different curbs during door opening, the radar is positioned at a height H1, ensuring the height H of the lower edge of the ultrasonic radar's FOV is around 200mm. For example, if the judgment height H0 = 200mm, when the curb is higher than 200mm, the radar needs to detect it and send a signal to prevent the electric door from opening. When the curb is lower than 200mm, the radar does not need to detect it, and the door can open smoothly. Therefore, the radar is positioned at a height H1, with the lower edge of its FOV above the ground greater than the design height. An upward tilt angle γ1 needs to be designed on the radar mounting surface on the lower door rub strip so that the lower edge height H of the ultrasonic radar's FOV is around 200mm. Simultaneously, the first radar 1 is positioned at an upward tilt angle γ2 so that the FOV of the ultrasonic radar 3 and the first radar 1 can cover the upper angled area of the door in the Z-axis direction. Typically, the design value for γ1 is between 10° and 20°, and the design upward angle for γ2 is between 5° and 10°.
[0054] By designing an upward angle γ1 at the mounting surface of the door radar anti-scratch strip, the door can be effectively opened smoothly when encountering low obstacles and detected and stopped when encountering higher obstacles. By designing an upward angle for the first radar 1 at the door's outward opening handle, the upper angle area of the door can be detected, preventing the electric door from scraping the passenger's head when it opens.
[0055] All the above solutions utilize ultrasonic radar, which significantly reduces the cost of door radar compared to millimeter-wave radar. This solution integrates all door radar components onto plastic parts, eliminating the need for drilling holes in the door sheet metal, resulting in a more harmonious and aesthetically pleasing design.
[0056] Secondly, to improve the detection capability of electric doors and enhance the collision avoidance system of electric doors, a special ultrasonic radar arrangement structure can be improved to a certain extent. However, in order to further improve the safety of electric doors, a collision avoidance method for electric doors is also proposed.
[0057] A collision avoidance method for electrically operated vehicle doors, comprising the following steps:
[0058] Step 100: Before the electric door opens, use the second radar 2 and the third radar 3 in the collision avoidance system of the electric door to detect the height of road obstacles.
[0059] Step 101: If the height of the road obstacle is greater than the design height, the electric vehicle door controller will prevent the electric vehicle door from opening.
[0060] Step 102: Otherwise, control the electric door to open, and at the same time, use the first radar 1 of the electric door's anti-collision system to detect whether an obstacle is detected in the upper corner area of the door during the opening process; if an obstacle is detected, control the electric door to pause the opening action; if no obstacle is detected, control the electric door to continue opening.
[0061] The above features enable the electric vehicle door to detect obstacles that are not easily visible under the vehicle, such as curbs and concrete blocks, when it is opened; and can prevent the safety risks caused by the passenger's head being scratched during the opening process.
[0062] Furthermore, step 103 is included, during the opening of the electric door, the first radar 1 and the third radar 3 are used to detect the rear edge contour area of the door. When an obstacle is detected, the electric door is controlled to pause the opening action; when no obstacle is detected, the electric door is controlled to continue opening.
[0063] Furthermore, step 104 is included: if an obstacle is detected in at least one of the upper corner area and the rear edge contour area of the electric vehicle door during the opening process, the electric vehicle door is controlled to pause the opening action; otherwise, the electric vehicle door is controlled to continue opening.
[0064] The above provides a clear explanation of how to control the electric door after detecting obstacles in both the upper sharp corner area and the rear edge contour area of the door.
[0065] Thirdly, a vehicle is provided, comprising:
