[0039] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present application, and should not be construed as limiting the present application.
[0040] The following describes the vehicle seat adjustment method, device and vehicle of the embodiment of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings. In response to the problems mentioned in the above background technology, the present application provides a vehicle seat adjustment method, in which the optimal seat layout parameters in the current usage scenario are determined in combination with human body characteristic parameters, which not only effectively reduces muscle fatigue and injury risks caused by long-term driving, but also better adapts to the comfort needs of each user in different scenarios, ensuring that the user enjoys a comfortable riding experience immediately after entering the vehicle. Thereby, the problem of low seat adjustment accuracy in the related technology, which affects the user experience and comfort, and the problem of not taking into account the physical damage caused by maintaining the posture for a long time, is solved.
[0041] Specifically, Figure 1 A schematic flow chart of a vehicle seat adjustment method provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle seat adjustment method comprises the following steps:
[0043] In step S101, the current usage scenario of the vehicle and the user's body characteristic parameters are obtained.
[0044] In the embodiment of the present application, the current usage scenario may include the first to fourth usage scenarios, wherein the first scenario may be a boarding welcoming mode, the second scenario may be a static driving mode, the third scenario may be a dynamic driving mode, and the fourth scenario may be a zero gravity mode. Human body characteristic parameters are key data for personalized adjustment of seats, including but not limited to the following items: gender, age, height, weight, BMI (Body Mass Index), seat height / height ratio, key joint measurement data (such as the height from the seat surface to the cervical vertebrae, the height from the seat surface to the eyes, the thickness of the thigh part, etc.) and body pressure distribution data (such as the maximum pressure of the cushion, the overall contact area of the cushion area, the side wing support area of the cushion area, and the average pressure of the side wing of the cushion area). In the actual implementation process, the embodiment of the present application can be collected through in-vehicle cameras, sensors and other equipment, and processed in combination with cloud databases or models to obtain human body characteristic parameters.
[0045] In step S102, target arrangement parameters of the target seat are determined according to the current usage scenario and human body characteristic parameters.
[0046] In one embodiment of the present application, target layout parameters of a target seat are determined based on a current usage scenario and human body characteristic parameters, including: determining a target model based on the current usage scenario; inputting the human body characteristic parameters into the target model, and the target model outputting the target layout parameters of the target seat.
[0047] The target arrangement parameters may include seat height, backrest angle, headrest position, lumbar support strength, etc. The embodiment of the present application can provide the user with the most suitable seat posture in different usage scenarios, thereby comprehensively improving the comfort and safety of the ride.
[0048] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 As shown, the target model includes the first to fourth models, and the first to fourth usage scenarios correspond one-to-one to the first to fourth models, wherein the second model includes: a first bone-muscle sub-model and a first body pressure sub-model, and the fourth model includes: a second bone-muscle sub-model and a second body pressure sub-model.
[0049] Specifically, if Figure 3As shown, the first model can be a seat posture riding risk proxy model, which is suitable for the first usage scenario (boarding welcome mode). It collects human characteristic parameters through the visual recognition technology of the external camera, considers the differences in the seat layout space requirements of users with different physical signs, and inputs the human characteristic parameters into the seat posture riding risk proxy model in the cloud through the Internet of Vehicles; calculates the target layout parameters of the user's sitting process through the seat posture riding risk proxy model; activates the seat welcome function when the door is opened, and adjusts the seat back, seat cushion, headrest and other components to the set position.
[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, the second model is suitable for the second usage scenario (static driving mode), and may include a first bone muscle sub-model and a first body pressure sub-model, wherein the first bone muscle sub-model may be a driving posture seat bone muscle comfort proxy model for analyzing the comfort of the user's skeletal muscle system, and the first body pressure sub-model may be a driving posture seat body pressure comfort proxy model for analyzing the pressure distribution of the seat on the human body. In the embodiment of the present application, the identified human body feature parameters may be input into the driving posture seat bone muscle comfort proxy model and the driving posture seat body pressure comfort proxy model in the cloud through the Internet of Vehicles. The seat layout parameters with the highest subjective score for driving posture comfort are calculated through the proxy model. The seat control module automatically adjusts the seat to the most comfortable position for the posture.
[0051] The third model can be a multi-body dynamic comfort proxy model of the driving posture seat, which takes into account the dynamic changes of the vehicle during driving and is suitable for the third use scenario (dynamic driving mode). In the embodiment of the present application, the recognized human body feature parameters can be input into the multi-body dynamic comfort proxy model of the driving posture seat in the cloud through the Internet of Vehicles, and the seat layout parameters with the highest subjective score of driving posture comfort can be calculated through the proxy model, and the seat control module can automatically adjust the seat to the most comfortable position.
[0052] like Figure 5 As shown, the fourth model is applicable to the fourth usage scenario (zero gravity mode) and may include: a second bone muscle sub-model and a second body pressure sub-model. Among them, the second bone muscle sub-model is a zero-gravity posture seat bone muscle comfort proxy model, which is used to analyze the comfort of the user's skeletal muscle system in a zero-gravity state. The second body pressure sub-model is a zero-gravity posture seat body pressure comfort proxy model, which is used to analyze the pressure distribution of the seat on the human body in a zero-gravity state. In the embodiment of the present application, the identified human body feature parameters can be input into the zero-gravity posture seat bone muscle comfort proxy model and the zero-gravity posture seat body pressure comfort proxy model in the cloud through the Internet of Vehicles, and the seat layout parameters with the highest subjective score of driving posture comfort are calculated through the proxy model, and the seat control module automatically adjusts the seat to the most comfortable position for the posture.
[0053] In summary, the embodiment of the present application obtains human body shape data and calculates the matching seat posture parameters through the database / model in the cloud, thereby improving riding comfort. On this basis, the embodiment further subdivides the control process into boarding and welcoming mode, driving and riding mode (static), driving and riding mode (dynamic), and zero gravity mode according to the user's usage scenario. In the boarding and welcoming mode, a seat posture riding risk proxy model is established based on the rapid full-body assessment tool to obtain the riding path that causes the least damage to the user; in the static driving and riding mode and zero gravity mode, the seat bone muscle comfort proxy model and the seat body pressure comfort proxy model are used to obtain the most comfortable seat parameters for users in static environments; in the dynamic driving and riding mode, the seat multi-body dynamic comfort proxy model is used to obtain the most comfortable seat parameters for users in dynamic environments such as vehicle bumps. This case controls the characteristics of each scenario separately, and comprehensively improves the seat posture comfort of all scenarios.
[0054] It should be noted that after automatically adjusting the seat to the most comfortable position based on one of the above models, the embodiment of the present application can detect whether the user manually adjusts the seat parameters. If so, the adjusted seat parameters and human body characteristic parameters are output to the cloud, thereby optimizing the corresponding model, improving the accuracy of prediction and adjustment, and providing better services to users.
[0055] In one embodiment of the present application, before inputting the human body characteristic parameters into the target model, it also includes: acquiring the human body characteristic parameters in all usage scenarios; calibrating the target layout parameters of the seats corresponding to each human body characteristic parameter; and establishing the target model based on the human body characteristic parameters in all usage scenarios and the target layout parameters of the seats corresponding to each human body characteristic parameter.
[0056] It is understandable that the embodiments of the present application can calibrate each human characteristic parameter through experiments and data analysis to determine the corresponding optimal seat layout parameters. For example: for different heights, calibrate the optimal seat height and backrest angle. For different weights, calibrate the optimal seat support strength and pressure distribution. For different BMIs, calibrate the optimal seat width and side support angle. The calibration process can be completed through laboratory testing, simulation calculations, and biomechanical analysis to ensure that each parameter can correspond to an optimized seat layout solution.
[0057] Furthermore, the embodiment of the present application can input the human body characteristic parameters and their corresponding seat layout parameters in all usage scenarios into the modeling system. Using machine learning algorithms or other statistical methods, a target model that can predict the optimal seat layout parameters in different usage scenarios is established. The details are as follows:
[0058] 1. If the target model is the first model, then the target model is established according to the human body characteristic parameters in all usage scenarios and the target parameters of the seat corresponding to each human body characteristic parameter, including: identifying multiple joint control points in the human body characteristic parameters; calculating the first risk value and the second risk value of the multiple joint control points under different target layout parameters; and establishing the first model according to different target layout parameters, the first risk value and the second risk value.
[0059] Specifically, the embodiment of the present application first uses REBA (Rapid Entire Body Assessment) to score the joints of the trunk, neck and legs (Group A) and upper arms, forearms and wrists (Group B) according to the angle; then the force scores are scored for Group A and Group B, and the joint scores and force scores are added to obtain the scores of Group A and Group B respectively; the score of Group C can be obtained according to the scores of Group A / B; finally, the human body movements are scored and added to the C score to obtain the final score of the whole body.

According to the three basic bone muscle models of 5%, 50%, and 95%, the output results under different sitting posture human signs are obtained by intermediate interpolation.
[0111] Furthermore, the embodiment of the present application can establish a target model based on Latin square sampling, with human body characteristic parameters and seat layout parameters as input and subjective evaluation scores, muscle activity and spinal joint force as output, and calculate the optimal solution of the target layout parameters with the minimum subjective evaluation score, muscle activity and spinal joint force using the NSGA-II optimization algorithm based on the user's physical sign parameters collected by the in-vehicle camera. The seat controller controls the seat posture according to the optimal solution of the target layout parameters.
[0112] In addition, the embodiments of the present application can also generate a corresponding human body geometry model based on specified human body sign indicators; obtain body pressure parameters related to the vehicle seat output by the human body geometry model under different target layout parameters; and establish a body pressure sub-model based on different target layout parameters, body pressure parameters related to the vehicle seat and a pre-established subjective evaluation table.
[0113] Specifically, the embodiment of the present application can specify corresponding human body sign indicators (5 / 50 / 95 percentile adult males under the national standard), including gender, age, BMI, height and sitting height / height ratio, and use the specified human body sign indicators and the corresponding human body sign database to generate the corresponding specified body sign human body geometric model. Based on the generated human body sign geometric model, the human body finite element model mesh transformation technology is used to transform the human body finite element model into a human body finite element model of the specified body sign.
[0114] By conducting static seat stiffness tests and human-seat static body pressure distribution tests, the human-seat body pressure finite element models with different postures and different signs are calibrated. According to the human-seat body pressure model, the influence of seat foam thickness, density, suspension spring stiffness and other parameters on body pressure analysis is analyzed. Body pressure parameters include maximum cushion pressure, overall cushion area contact area, cushion area side wing support area, cushion area side wing average pressure, maximum thigh front support pressure, average thigh front support pressure, shoulder support contact area, shoulder support average pressure, lumbar support contact area, and lumbar support maximum pressure.
[0115] Furthermore, the embodiment of the present application can establish a target model based on Latin square sampling, with human body characteristic parameters and seat layout parameters as input and subjective evaluation scores and body pressure parameters as output. According to the user's physical sign parameters collected by the in-car camera, the NSGA-II optimization algorithm is used to calculate the optimal solution of the subjective evaluation score and body pressure parameters, and the seat controller controls the seat posture according to the optimal solution of the seat parameters.
[0116] In one embodiment of the present application, if the target model is the third model, the target model is established based on the human body characteristic parameters in all usage scenarios and the target parameters of the seat corresponding to each human body characteristic parameter, including: identifying the dynamic response dynamic force and vibration excitation acceleration in the human body characteristic parameters; calculating the effective amplitude transfer rate of the seat based on the dynamic response dynamic force and vibration excitation acceleration under different target layout parameters; and establishing the third model based on different target layout parameters and the effective amplitude transfer rate of the seat.
[0117] Specifically, the embodiment of the present application can select 5%, 50%, and 95% of test personnel for human vibration response testing, and use a three-dimensional force plate (Kistler) and a seat accelerometer (Sit-pad) to obtain the dynamic force of human vibration response and vibration excitation acceleration. In the test, it is necessary to use a three-dimensional seat accelerometer (Sit-pad) to measure the vibration acceleration response of the vibration table, seat cushion, and backrest, and use a three-dimensional PCB accelerometer to test the vibration response of positions such as seat rails and headrests. In matlab, the modeling program of the 5% and 50% two-sign human explicit mass prediction model under front-back, lateral and vertical vibration excitation is completed, and parameter identification is performed based on relevant data. The human-seat modeling program is written, and after obtaining the calibrated human body model, the transfer function prediction modeling of the human-seat coupling system can be carried out.
[0118] Furthermore, the embodiment of the present application can perform correlation analysis based on the human body-seat coupling model and the subjective evaluation results. The effective amplitude transfer rate of the seat can be used as a more intuitive and simple method to characterize and evaluate the dynamic objective comfort and vibration isolation effect of the seat. The calculation method is as follows:
[0119]
[0120] Among them, G oo and G ii are the autopower spectral densities of the seat, seat cushion or backrest vibration output and floor vibration input, respectively, W i (f) is the frequency weighting factor for the seat's position and direction of interest, and the numerator and denominator are the same. The seat effective amplitude transmissibility value can be considered as the weighted RMS value of the acceleration at the seat's position and direction divided by the weighted RMS value of the acceleration in the same direction on the floor, and the frequency weighting factor at the floor needs to be consistent with the seat's position and direction of interest.
[0121] Since the frequency weighting coefficient is used in the calculation of the effective amplitude transfer rate value of the seat, it can be used to evaluate the subjective vibration isolation effect of the seat. When the effective amplitude transfer rate value of the seat is 100%, from the perspective of acceleration vibration transfer rate, the seat amplifies vibration at low frequencies and attenuates vibration at high frequencies, but overall the seat does not improve or deteriorate in riding comfort. This means that when the effective amplitude transfer rate value of the seat is greater than 100%, the seat amplifies the discomfort of the vibration, and vice versa. The effective amplitude transfer rate value of the seat depends not only on the spectral characteristics of the vibration input and the vibration transfer characteristics of the seat, but also on the sensitivity of the human body to different vibration frequencies and amplitudes.
[0122] Furthermore, the embodiment of the present application can establish a target model based on Latin square sampling, with human body feature parameters and seat layout parameters as input and subjective evaluation scores and seat effective amplitude transfer rate as output. The subjective evaluation score and the optimal solution of the seat effective amplitude transfer rate parameters are calculated using the NSGA-II optimization algorithm based on the user's vital sign parameters collected by the in-vehicle camera, and the seat controller controls the seat posture according to the optimal solution of the seat parameters.
[0123] In step S103 , the current parameters of the target seat are controlled to be adjusted to the target arrangement parameters.
[0124] According to the vehicle seat adjustment method proposed in the embodiment of the present application, the optimal seat arrangement parameters in the current use scenario are determined in combination with human characteristic parameters, which not only effectively reduces muscle fatigue and injury risks caused by long-term driving, but also better adapts to the comfort needs of each user in different scenarios, ensuring that the user enjoys a comfortable riding experience immediately after entering the vehicle. In this way, the problem of low seat adjustment accuracy in the related art, which affects the user experience and comfort, and the problem of not considering the physical damage caused by maintaining the posture for a long time, is solved.
