[0054] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0055] The vehicle hardware installation method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the application environment shown in FIG1 . The terminal 102 communicates with the server 104 via a network. The data storage system can store data that the server 104 needs to process. The data storage system can be integrated on the server 104, or placed on the cloud or other network servers.

[0056] When the server 104 completes the offline hardware installation of the vehicle based on the hardware installation work order, it obtains the vehicle identification code; obtains the update prompt information of the vehicle hardware according to the vehicle identification code; updates the configuration features in the vehicle file online according to the update prompt information of the vehicle hardware, and activates the corresponding hardware functions; and transmits back the configuration features in the updated vehicle file.

[0057] Among them, the terminal 102 can be but is not limited to various personal computers, laptops, smart phones, tablets, Internet of Things devices and portable wearable devices, and the server 104 can be an independent physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides cloud computing services.

[0058] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG2 , a vehicle hardware installation method is provided, which is described by taking the method applied to the server in FIG1 as an example, and includes the following steps S202 to S208 . Among them:

[0059] Step S202, when the hardware installation of the vehicle is completed offline based on the hardware installation work order, a vehicle identification code is obtained.

[0060] Specifically, first, according to the customer's installation requirements, the after-sales service department will create an installation work order in the business management system and install the corresponding hardware according to the installation work order. In the work order, the vehicle identification code is the unique identifier for each vehicle. The vehicle identification code will be used throughout the offline installation process to ensure that all operations are performed on the correct vehicle. The vehicle identification code (VIN) is the unique identification code of the vehicle, which contains key data such as the vehicle's manufacturing information, model, and production year. Through the VIN, each vehicle can be accurately identified.

[0061] Step S204, obtaining update prompt information of the vehicle hardware according to the vehicle identification code.

[0062] Specifically, in vehicle maintenance or upgrade services, it is first necessary to obtain the current hardware configuration information of the vehicle through the VIN. This usually involves querying the vehicle data platform (VDP) or vehicle information platform to understand the original configuration of the vehicle and possible hardware limitations. Based on the vehicle hardware information queried by the VIN, the system can provide corresponding update prompt information. This information may include: supported hardware upgrade options; recommended or required hardware updates to meet safety standards or performance improvements; hardware items that are incompatible with the current configuration of the vehicle. When providing update prompt information, the system will perform a compatibility check to ensure that the recommended hardware update is compatible with the existing configuration of the vehicle to avoid problems caused by installing incompatible hardware.

[0063] Step S206, based on the update prompt information of the vehicle hardware, the configuration features in the vehicle file are updated online, and the corresponding hardware functions are activated.

[0064] Specifically, according to the hardware update prompt information, the configuration features need to be updated in the electronic file of the vehicle. This is usually done through a business management system or a vehicle data platform. The updated content includes but is not limited to: hardware model and specifications; hardware installation date and conditions; hardware-related functional descriptions.

[0065] And after the hardware is updated, the corresponding hardware functions need to be activated. This involves: connecting to the vehicle through the vehicle diagnostic instrument client software to perform hardware detection and functional testing. According to the hardware update prompt information, use the vehicle diagnostic instrument client software to activate new hardware functions or update existing functions. In some cases, the activation of hardware functions may require software flashing. This includes: updating the vehicle's firmware or software to support new hardware components. Ensure that the software is compatible with the new hardware for optimal performance. After the hardware function is activated, verification and testing are required to ensure that all updates have been implemented correctly and the hardware functions work as expected.

[0066] Step S208, returning the configuration features in the updated vehicle file.

[0067] Specifically, after the vehicle hardware or software is updated, it is necessary to record the details of all changes, including updated parts, software versions, update dates, etc. These update records are entered into the vehicle's electronic file, which is usually done through systems such as business management systems, vehicle data platforms, or vehicle information platforms. The purpose of updating vehicle files is to ensure that vehicle information in all relevant systems and databases remains consistent and to avoid outdated or erroneous information. The updated vehicle configuration features need to be synchronized in different systems, such as business management systems, vehicle data platforms, or vehicle information platforms, to ensure that all relevant personnel and systems have access to the latest vehicle information.

[0068] After returning the configuration features in the updated vehicle file, it also includes:

[0069] When the hardware installation work order is in the quality inspection state, the hardware installation function is inspected; after the inspection and settlement phase is completed, the settlement contract viewing entrance is displayed.

[0070] Specifically, after the hardware is installed, the work order will enter a specific quality inspection state. This state means that the installed hardware needs to go through a series of quality inspection processes to ensure that all installed parts meet the manufacturer's standards and customer expectations. In the quality inspection state, the technician will perform a functional inspection on the installed hardware. This step includes:

[0071] Check whether the newly installed hardware is installed correctly without missing any steps or parts; verify whether the hardware functions properly and ensure that they work as designed; may include some tests on the hardware, such as performance testing, compatibility testing, etc.

[0072] After the functional inspection is completed, the inspection and settlement phase begins. This phase involves: final inspection and confirmation of the installed hardware and work performed; ensuring that all work has been completed and meets the expected quality standards. After the inspection and settlement phase is completed, the system will provide a settlement contract viewing portal. This portal allows customers or service personnel to: view the details of the settlement contract, including installed hardware, work performed, cost details, etc. Confirm all costs and work content to ensure that there are no omissions or errors.

[0073] After checking and confirming that the settlement contract is correct, the customer will make the payment. This step is an important part of the entire hardware installation process and ensures a closed loop of services. After the customer completes the payment, the vehicle file will be updated again to record the final result and settlement information of this installation to ensure the integrity and accuracy of the vehicle file.

[0074] In the above-mentioned vehicle hardware installation method, the manual identification and operation links are reduced through the automated online update process, and the risk of flashing errors or inconsistent software versions is reduced. The systematic update process makes the maintenance of vehicle configuration more convenient and facilitates the tracking and management of the vehicle's software status. When the vehicle needs further hardware or software upgrades, the upgrade process can be smoother due to the accurate recording of vehicle files and configuration information. Accurate vehicle configuration information helps to quickly diagnose problems and improve maintenance efficiency. It reduces system instability problems caused by incorrect flashing or inconsistent configurations, and improves the overall stability of the vehicle. In general, this method improves the accuracy and efficiency of vehicle hardware installation through an online automated process, while ensuring the maintainability and upgradeability of the software, thereby improving the user experience and vehicle reliability.

[0075] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG3 , when hardware is installed offline on a vehicle based on a hardware installation work order, before obtaining the vehicle identification code, the following steps are further included:

[0076] Step S302, obtaining a request for creating a hardware installation work order;

[0077] Step S304, in response to the creation request, verifying the vehicle file version;

[0078] Step S306, when the verification is passed, the process of creating the hardware installation work order is completed.

[0079] Specifically, first, a customer or service personnel needs to make a request for hardware installation. This request may be based on customer needs or due to the vehicle manufacturer's upgrade plan. After receiving the creation request, the system or service personnel needs to respond to this request and prepare to create a hardware installation work order. Before creating a work order, the vehicle's file needs to be verified to ensure that the vehicle's file information is up to date and matches the actual configuration of the vehicle. This includes: confirming the vehicle's model, year, configuration and other information; checking whether the vehicle file has records or recall notices to be updated; if the verification result of the vehicle file shows that the vehicle information is accurate and up to date, then you can proceed to the next step; if the verification passes, the service personnel or system will create a hardware installation work order based on the customer's needs and the vehicle's configuration. The work order will include: the hardware components or functions that need to be installed. The estimated time, cost and materials required for the installation. The expected installation results and customer expectations. After the work order is created and the VIN is assigned, the service personnel can start preparing the tools, materials and personnel required for the hardware installation.

[0080] In this embodiment, through this process, it can be ensured that the creation of the hardware installation work order is based on accurate and up-to-date vehicle information, thereby improving the quality and efficiency of the installation work.

[0081] In an exemplary embodiment, after verifying the vehicle file version according to the creation request, the following is further included:

[0082] If the verification fails, the vehicle file version will be updated;

[0083] Re-check the updated vehicle file version.

[0084] Specifically, before creating a hardware installation work order, when verifying the vehicle file version, if the file information is found to be inaccurate or outdated, the verification will fail. Failure to pass the verification means that the vehicle file needs to be updated. This may include: updating the vehicle's configuration information, such as engine model, transmission type, etc. Correcting the vehicle identification number (VIN) or other identification information. Synchronizing the latest vehicle recall information or technical updates. File updates are performed by authorized service personnel or systems to ensure that all changes are accurate and verified. After the update is completed, the vehicle file needs to be re-verified to ensure that all information is now accurate and up-to-date. The purpose of re-verification is to ensure that the vehicle file is compatible with the hardware installation to be performed, to avoid installation failures or vehicle failures due to file errors.

[0085] If the file still fails after re-verification, further investigation and update may be required, and this process may be repeated until the file verification passes. All update operations should be recorded in detail, including the content, date and execution personnel of the update, for easy tracking and review. During the process of updating the vehicle file, the customer should be notified of the relevant update information, especially if these updates affect the customer's vehicle use or installation plans. Once the vehicle file verification passes, you can proceed with the creation of the hardware installation work order and subsequent installation work.

[0086] In this embodiment, through this process, the accuracy and completeness of the vehicle files can be ensured, providing a solid data foundation for hardware installation, reducing errors and risks, and improving service quality and customer satisfaction.

[0087] In an exemplary embodiment, before obtaining a request to create a hardware installation work order, the process further includes:

[0088] determining a configuration feature set for vehicle hardware additions;

[0089] Determine the hardware function set of the on-board computer according to the configuration feature set;

[0090] The configuration feature set and the hardware function set are published in the hardware function warehouse of the vehicle information platform.

[0091] Specifically, first, it is necessary to determine the configuration feature set for vehicle hardware installation. This includes: determining which hardware components or modules need to be installed or updated. Defining the specifications, models and compatibility requirements of these hardware components. Determine the hardware feature set: Based on the configuration feature set, determine the hardware feature set of the on-board computer. This involves: identifying which software functions need to work with the new hardware. Determine how these functions are integrated with the vehicle's existing hardware and software systems.

[0092] Publish the configuration feature set and hardware feature set in the hardware feature store in the vehicle information platform. This includes: creating and updating records of the hardware feature store in the vehicle information platform. Ensure that all relevant configuration and feature information is up to date and accessible to service personnel. Information published to the hardware feature store needs to be shared with all relevant departments, including R&D, IT, after-sales service, etc., to ensure that the entire organization is aware of the latest hardware installation options.

[0093] In this embodiment, through this process, it can be ensured that all necessary configurations and functions have been fully prepared and verified before creating a hardware installation work order, laying a solid foundation for subsequent installation work.

[0094] In an exemplary embodiment, according to the update prompt information of the vehicle hardware, the configuration features in the vehicle file are updated online, and the corresponding hardware functions are activated, including:

[0095] Connect to the vehicle diagnostic instrument client, and display the vehicle hardware update prompt information and hardware installation options through the vehicle diagnostic instrument client;

[0096] According to the update prompt information, a click operation request based on the hardware installation option is obtained, the configuration features in the vehicle file are updated online, and the corresponding hardware functions of the vehicle computer are activated.

[0097] Specifically, first, you need to use the vehicle diagnostic instrument client to connect to the vehicle. This step usually requires hardware connection, such as the OBD-II interface, and corresponding software support. After the connection, the vehicle diagnostic instrument client will display the update prompt information of the vehicle hardware based on the current status of the vehicle and the data provided by the manufacturer. This information may include recommended hardware updates, software upgrades, or other installation options. The client will also display hardware installation options, which are based on the vehicle's configuration feature set and hardware function set, as well as the information published in the hardware function warehouse of the vehicle information platform. Personnel or customers can make selections through the client interface based on these prompt information and installation options and initiate click operation requests. These requests indicate the required hardware update or installation service.

[0098] Once the click-to-action request is confirmed, the vehicle diagnostics client communicates with the vehicle information platform to perform an online update of the configuration features in the vehicle profile. This may include changing the vehicle's hardware configuration record to reflect the new hardware status. After updating the vehicle profile, the vehicle diagnostics client activates the corresponding hardware functions of the vehicle computer according to the update prompt information. This may involve: flashing new firmware or software to the vehicle computer; configuring the vehicle computer to enable the functions of the new hardware.

[0099] After the hardware function is activated, verification and testing are required to ensure that all updates and activations have been implemented correctly and that the hardware functions work as expected. After the update and activation are completed, the changes are synchronized to all related systems to ensure the consistency and real-time update of vehicle information. All update and activation operations should be recorded in detail and documents should be generated when necessary for future maintenance and reference.

[0100] In this embodiment, through this process, it can be ensured that the update of vehicle hardware and function activation are both accurate and efficient, while providing customers with better service experience and vehicle performance.

[0101] In an exemplary embodiment, after updating the configuration features in the vehicle file online according to the update prompt information of the vehicle hardware and activating the corresponding hardware functions, the method further includes:

[0102] When the vehicle system version needs to be updated, the vehicle system version can be updated OTA through the vehicle diagnostic instrument client or over-the-air download.

[0103] Specifically, by connecting to the vehicle diagnostic instrument client, such as the OBD-II interface, using professional diagnostic software to obtain the update package and update the system version. This method usually requires professional technicians to ensure the accuracy and security of the update process.

[0104] OTA (Over-The-Air) update: This is a wireless download technology that allows the vehicle to download update packages directly from the cloud through its built-in communication module (such as 4G / 5G), and then install the update. OTA updates can be differential updates, downloading only the changed parts to save bandwidth and time, or full updates, downloading the complete system image. OTA updates support silent upgrades, which are automatically performed when the vehicle is stopped, without user intervention. During the upgrade process, the vehicle can automatically manage power to ensure that the upgrade does not damage the battery.

[0105] The OTA update process usually includes functions such as upgrade package management, vehicle management, and OTA release in the cloud management system, as well as functions such as downloading, flashing, differential restoration, and security and integrity verification of the vehicle-side OTA master control. The method for updating vehicle configuration information can be decoupled from the OTA system to achieve real-time online updates of configuration information, so that the vehicle can be updated immediately without restarting the vehicle OTA system. When performing OTA updates, the system will perform a series of checks, including file format and data format checks, to ensure the security and correctness of the update package. If the vehicle OTA system service is performing other tasks, such as OTA upgrade tasks or other high-priority tasks, the system will wait for these tasks to be completed before updating the configuration information.

[0106] In this embodiment, the vehicle system version can be updated through the vehicle diagnostic instrument client or OTA. OTA update is gradually becoming the mainstream method of vehicle update due to its convenience, efficiency and automation.

[0107] In one of the most detailed embodiments of the present application, taking the installation of a trailer hook of a vehicle as an example:

[0108] 1. Vehicle information platform function is launched:

[0109] First, determine the range of VDN (configuration features) that can be installed on the vehicle, for example, AT01 represents a vehicle without a trailer hook. AA31 is the vehicle model, MD02 is the sales area of ​​the vehicle model, and LF01 / LF02 is whether it has a kick function. Then, define the ECU (electronic control unit) and VDN (configuration features) that need to be modified. Due to vehicle layout issues, the kick and trailer hook cannot be equipped at the same time, so a trailer hook electronic control unit is added, and the VDN (configuration feature) without a trailer hook is modified to a VDN (configuration feature) with a trailer hook, and the VDN (configuration feature) with a kick is modified to a VDN (configuration feature) without a kick, and finally the modified configuration is updated to the vehicle body domain controller. After completing the above steps, the function is put on the shelf and can be queried in the hardware function warehouse of the vehicle information platform.

[0110] After-sales service personnel add trailer hook configuration through the business management system, and request the vehicle information platform through VDP (vehicle data platform) to query whether the current vehicle VDN (configuration feature) meets the installation conditions. If yes, click Save and Submit. After signing the work order contract, the corresponding function installation item will be generated for the vehicle with this VIN code, the hardware task of the vehicle information platform will take effect, and the "activation type" status of the purchased item in the saleable file will be changed to purchased synchronously.

[0111] 2. Flash the configuration and software of the diagnostic instrument:

[0112] Connect to the vehicle diagnostics client, and after identifying the vehicle VIN, the option to install a trailer hook will automatically pop up. After clicking the option to install, the relevant VDN (configuration feature) will be automatically modified and the corresponding ECU (electronic control unit) software will be updated. After the flashing is completed, the vehicle information platform will prompt that the installation is complete. If it prompts that the vehicle version still needs to be upgraded, update the vehicle system version through the vehicle diagnostics client or over-the-air download.

[0113] When the work order status is in the quality inspection status, perform the installation function inspection. If there is no problem, click the settlement button to enter the settlement operation. After filling in the mileage of the installed vehicle, the installed equipment and the working hours, return to the maintenance settlement query page. At this time, the work order status changes from the quality inspection status to the cleared status, and the settlement contract signing entrance is displayed. Download it for the customer to sign. After the signature is returned to the system, the maintenance settlement link is completed, and the settlement contract viewing entrance is displayed.

[0114] It should be understood that, although the various steps in the flowcharts involved in the above-mentioned embodiments are displayed in sequence according to the indication of the arrows, these steps are not necessarily executed in sequence according to the order indicated by the arrows.
