[0052] In the car's living and dining room mode, since the table takes up a large space, the passenger's activity space and the opening space of the refrigerator are limited, making it inconvenient for passengers to take and put items in the refrigerator, resulting in difficulty in taking items from the car's refrigerator.

[0053] The present invention provides a vehicle control method. The vehicle control method is implemented based on a vehicle, the vehicle comprising: a front row seat, a rear row seat, a vehicle refrigerator, and a drive system, the front row seat can be rotated forward and backward, the vehicle refrigerator can be moved forward and backward, the vehicle refrigerator has a door facing backward, the drive system drives the front row seat to rotate and move forward and backward, drives the vehicle refrigerator to move forward and backward, and drives the rear row seat to move forward and backward.

[0054] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a first embodiment of a vehicle control method of the present invention. The vehicle control method comprises:

[0055] Step S1: After receiving the restaurant mode signal, entering the restaurant mode, in which the front seats are rotated backward and are located in the first position, the rear seats are in the second position, the auxiliary instrument panel is in the third position between the front seats and the rear seats, and the vehicle refrigerator is provided with an unfolded table board;

[0056] Step S2: In the restaurant mode, when a signal to take items from the vehicle refrigerator is received, the driving system is controlled according to the load condition of the front seats to drive the vehicle refrigerator to move forward and backward to adjust the front and rear position of the vehicle refrigerator.

[0057] The technical solution of the present invention is to adjust the distance between the vehicle and the rear seats by adjusting the position of the vehicle refrigerator to expand the activity space of the passengers sitting on the rear seats, and to increase the distance between the vehicle refrigerator and the rear seats, so as to facilitate the smooth opening of the vehicle refrigerator door. The control method of the vehicle refrigerator is based on the following structure and function of the vehicle: the vehicle refrigerator is located between the two front seats, the front seats can be rotated backwards and can be opposite to the rear seats, the vehicle refrigerator can be moved along the rear to between the front seats and the rear seats, and the vehicle refrigerator includes a table board, which can be set to an automatic opening mode or a manual opening mode to form a table top between the front seats and the rear seats. When it is necessary to obtain items from the vehicle refrigerator, according to the riding situation on the front seats, the vehicle refrigerator is moved as much as possible toward the front seats to expand the distance between the vehicle refrigerator and the rear seats, so as to facilitate the retrieval of items.

[0058] Since there is no passenger in the front seat, the space on the front seat is relatively empty, so that the passengers in the back seat have more space to take things. Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a flow chart of a second embodiment of a vehicle control method of the present invention.

[0059] In this embodiment, step S2 includes:

[0060] Step S21: When there are no users on the front seats, the driving system is controlled to drive the vehicle refrigerator to move forward to a fourth position. At the fourth position, a first spacing is reserved between the table top and the backrests of the front table and chairs.

[0061] Since the front seats are fixed and there are no passengers on them, the car refrigerator can be moved forward as much as possible as long as the table top does not collide with the front seats. Therefore, the first spacing is generally set to be small, about 10 mm.

[0062] However, when there are people sitting in the front seats, in order to expand the space for the rear passengers to move around, increase the distance between the refrigerator door and the rear seats, and facilitate opening the door to take out items, and prevent the table from hitting the passengers in the front seats, and leave a certain amount of space for the passengers in the front seats to move around. Figure 3 , Figure 3 It is a flow chart of a third embodiment of a vehicle control method of the present invention.

[0063] In this embodiment, step S2 includes:

[0064] Step S22: When one of the front seats has a user and the other front seat has no user, the driving system is controlled to drive the vehicle refrigerator to move forward to a fifth position. At the fifth position, a second distance is reserved between the table top and the user.

[0065] The length of the second spacing is greater than the first spacing, and is generally set at about 100 mm.

[0066] The above embodiment is only for a single passenger in the front seat, and the adjustment is made with reference to the passenger seat. However, when there are two passengers in the front seat, if the passenger seat near the front is used as a reference, it is possible that when the distance between the table and the passenger near the front is greater than the second distance, the table will hit the passenger near the back. Figure 4 , Figure 4 It is a flow chart of a fourth embodiment of a vehicle control method of the present invention.

[0067] In this embodiment, step S2 includes:

[0068] Step S23: When there are users in both of the two front seats, the driving system is controlled to drive the vehicle refrigerator to move forward to a sixth position. In the sixth position, a second distance is reserved between the table top and one of the users at the rear.

[0069] Make sure there is a certain distance between the table and any front seat passengers to prevent the table from hitting the passengers.

[0070] The above three embodiments are to make corresponding adjustments according to the number of passengers on the front seats, provided that the number of passengers on the front seats is known. Therefore, it is necessary to detect the passengers on the front seats. There are many detection methods, such as the use of photoelectric sensors, gravity sensors, and visual recognition methods, which can meet the requirements. Figure 5 , Figure 5 It is a flowchart diagram of a fifth embodiment of a vehicle control method of the present invention.

[0071] The vehicle also includes a camera device;

[0072] In this embodiment, step S2 includes:

[0073] Step S24: in the restaurant mode, when receiving a signal to take something out of the vehicle refrigerator, determining the load status of the front seats according to the image captured by the camera device;

[0074] Step S25: According to the load condition on the front seats, the driving system is controlled to drive the vehicle refrigerator to move forward and backward to adjust the front and rear position of the vehicle refrigerator.

[0075] Another purpose of using image capture and visual recognition to make judgments is to detect the distance between the table and the front table and chairs, the distance between the table and the passengers in the front seats, and to determine which passenger is further back and select the reference passenger.

[0076] When taking out the items, the vehicle refrigerator moves forward, resulting in a smaller space between the front seat and the vehicle refrigerator. Therefore, after taking out the items, the range of movement of the passengers on the front seat needs to be expanded. Figure 6 , Figure 6 It is a flow chart of a sixth embodiment of a vehicle control method of the present invention.

[0077] In this embodiment, after step S2, the following steps are further included:

[0078] Step S3: In the restaurant mode, when a signal indicating that taking out items from the vehicle refrigerator is completed is received, the driving system is controlled to drive the vehicle refrigerator to move to the third position.

[0079] In this way, the vehicle refrigerator is moved to the third position after taking out the items, so that the movement range of passengers on the rear seats and the front seats is equivalent, and both have a more comfortable movement range.

[0080] When the vehicle enters the restaurant mode, since the front seats are on one side with the door and pillars, and on the other side with the refrigerator, the passengers sitting on the front seats cannot turn their legs to the rear position. Figure 7 , Figure 7 It is a flow chart of a seventh embodiment of a vehicle control method of the present invention.

[0081] The vehicle has a driving mode, in which the front seats are located at a first initial position, the rear seats are located at a second initial position, and the auxiliary instrument panel is located at a third initial position between the two front seats;

[0082] In this embodiment, the steps of step S1 include:

[0083] Step S11: controlling the driving system to drive the rear seat to move backward from the second initial position to the second position;

[0084] Step S12: controlling the driving system to drive the vehicle refrigerator to move backward from the third initial position to the third position;

[0085] Step S13: Control the driving system to drive the front seat to rotate backward from the first initial position to the first position, wherein the rotation direction is toward one side of the other front seat.

[0086] First, after entering the restaurant mode, based on the comfort level and the requirements for taking items, the space between the front seat and the rear seat needs to be large enough, so the rear seat moves backward to the second position to create a larger gap between the front and rear seats. When the car refrigerator moves backward to the third position, an aisle is created between the two front seats. The front seat is then rotated to the first position, and the direction of rotation is toward one side of the other front seat (even during rotation, people's legs can pass through the aisle).

[0087] When entering the driving mode from the restaurant mode, the passengers in the front seats can smoothly turn to the forward position. Figure 8 , Figure 8 It is a flow chart of an eighth embodiment of a vehicle control method of the present invention.

[0088] The vehicle has a driving mode, in which the front seats are located at a first initial position, the rear seats are located at a second initial position, and the auxiliary instrument panel is located at a third initial position between the two front seats;

[0089] The vehicle control method comprises:

[0090] Step S4: After receiving the driving mode signal, enter the driving mode, control the driving system, and sequentially drive the front seat, the vehicle refrigerator, and the rear seat to move to the first initial position, the third initial position, and the second initial position, respectively. The rotation direction of the front seat is toward one side of the other front seat.

[0091] First, the front seat is rotated forward from the first position to the first initial position, and the rotation direction is to rotate toward the side of the other front seat (even if the legs of the person pass through the aisle during the rotation). Then the position of the vehicle refrigerator is restored to the third initial position (located between the two front seats), and finally the rear seat position is restored (adjusted forward to the second initial position).

[0092] The present invention also proposes a vehicle, which includes a control device, the control device includes: a memory, a processor and a vehicle control program stored in the memory and can be run on the processor, and the vehicle control program is configured as the steps of the vehicle control method. The specific steps of the vehicle control method refer to the above embodiment. Since the vehicle control method adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here. Among them, the vehicle includes: a front seat, a car refrigerator, a rear seat, a drive system, a detection device, and a control device; the front seat is arranged with two left and right intervals and can be rotated forward and backward; the car refrigerator is arranged in the area between the two front seats and can be moved forward and backward, and the car refrigerator has a box door arranged backward; the rear seat is arranged on the rear side of the front seat and is slidable in the front and rear direction; the drive system drives the front seat to rotate and move forward and backward, drives the car refrigerator to move forward and backward, and drives the rear seat to move forward and backward; the detection device is used to detect the load on the front seat; the control device is electrically connected to the drive system and the detection device. The auxiliary instrument panel and refrigerator in the prior art are integrated to form a car refrigerator. In driving mode, the car refrigerator is located between the two front seats, providing the function of a auxiliary instrument panel for the driver and the function of a refrigerator for the rear passengers. In dining mode, the car refrigerator is located between the front seats and the rear seats, and the table top on the car refrigerator is unfolded to form a dining table. Since the car refrigerator opens backwards, it provides the function of a refrigerator for the rear passengers.

[0093] In one embodiment, the detection device includes a camera, and the camera range of the camera covers the front seats. The image capture and visual recognition method is selected for determination, and another purpose is to detect the distance between the table and the front table and chair, the distance between the table and the passengers on the front seats, and to determine which passenger is further back and select a reference passenger. In other embodiments, multiple sensors of different types need to be set for detection, which will complicate the detection system.
