[0022] The 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.

[0023] The following describes the gear limiting device and method of the vehicle of the embodiment of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings. In view of the technical problems that the gear shift lock requires manual operation by the driver, has a low level of intelligence, and has a large potential safety hazard in the related technologies mentioned in the above background technology, the present application provides a gear limiting device for a vehicle, in which the gear shift lock can be used to achieve gear limiting, and the gear shift lock is controlled accordingly by the controller based on the actual state of the door, that is, when any door is open, the controller can control the gear shift lock to lock and prohibit the vehicle from shifting into gear, and when all doors are closed, the controller can control the gear shift lock to unlock and allow the vehicle to shift into gear, thereby realizing the automatic locking or unlocking of the vehicle gear, preventing the vehicle from shifting into gear incorrectly due to the driver forgetting to operate the lock or accidentally touching it, and improving the vehicle's intelligence level while improving the vehicle's driving safety. Thus, the technical problems that the gear shift lock requires manual operation by the driver, has a low level of intelligence, and has a large potential safety hazard in the related technologies are solved.

[0024] Specifically, Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a gear limiting device for a vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the gear limiting device 10 of the vehicle includes: a shift lock 100 , a state detection device 200 and a controller 300 .

[0026] Specifically, the shift lock 100 has a locked state and an unlocked state.

[0027] In the actual implementation process, the embodiment of the present application can limit the gear shifting of the vehicle through the shift lock 100, thereby effectively avoiding problems such as misoperation, preventing starting errors and parking accidents, and ensuring the safety of the driver and the vehicle at an additional safety level.

[0028] The shift lock 100 has a locked state and an unlocked state. The locked state locks the current gear of the vehicle and prohibits the driver from shifting gears; the unlocked state releases the gear shift restriction of the vehicle and allows the driver to shift gears.

[0029] The state detection device 200 is used to detect the actual state of each door of the vehicle.

[0030] As a possible implementation method, the embodiment of the present application can detect the actual state of each door of the vehicle through the state detection device 200 to determine whether each door of the vehicle is closed.

[0031] Among them, the state detection device 200 can reuse the door sensor of the vehicle's own safety system, and determine the actual state of each door based on the door opening or closing signal, thereby saving costs and simplifying the structure; the state detection device 200 can also be set up separately, by obtaining the state signal, door lock signal, etc. of each door, and combining with the image inside the vehicle, it can more accurately judge the actual state of each door.

[0032] The controller 300 is used to control the shift lock 100 to be in a locked state when it detects that the actual state of any vehicle door is an open state, prohibiting the vehicle from shifting into gear, and to control the shift lock 100 to switch to an unlocked state when the actual state of each vehicle door is a closed state, allowing the vehicle to shift into gear.

[0033] In some embodiments, when the actual state of any door is detected to be open, such as when the controller 300 receives a signal that the door is not closed, the embodiment of the present application can control the shift lock 100 to enter a locked state to prohibit the vehicle from shifting into gear.

[0034] For example, when a vehicle is parked on a slope, the vehicle is in the parking gear and the handbrake is not pulled, if a passenger in the vehicle opens the door to get out, and the driver accidentally touches the door during rest or the passenger's belongings collide when getting out of the vehicle, causing the vehicle to shift gears, causing the vehicle to shift from the parking gear to other gears, it is very likely to cause the vehicle to slide, thereby causing a traffic accident. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can limit the vehicle's gear shifting action when any door of the vehicle is opened, avoiding the vehicle's wrong gear shifting caused by human factors such as the flow of people inside and outside the vehicle when getting on and off the vehicle, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle.

[0035] In other embodiments, when the embodiment of the present application detects that the actual state of each door is closed, such as when the controller 300 receives a signal that all doors are closed, the shift lock 100 can be switched to an unlocked state, thereby allowing the driver to perform shift operations so that the driver can drive the vehicle.

[0036] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present application, the gear limiting device 10 of the vehicle further includes: an alarm device and a vehicle speed detection device.

[0037] The vehicle speed detection device is used to collect the actual vehicle speed, so as to control the alarm device to sound an alarm when the controller 300 determines that the shift lock 100 fails according to the actual vehicle speed and the actual state.

[0038] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present application, the vehicle speed can also be monitored by a vehicle speed detection device. When the vehicle speed is 0, the vehicle may be in a parking state or a temporarily parked state. At this time, it can be determined that the vehicle is in a safe scenario, and no matter whether the shift lock 100 is in a locked state or not, no alarm will be issued through the alarm device; when the vehicle speed is not 0, the embodiment of the present application can determine the theoretical state of the shift lock 100 at this time according to the actual state of the door, that is, the shift lock 100 should be in a locked state or an unlocked state at this time, and when the actual state of the shift lock 100 is inconsistent with the theoretical state, it is determined that the shift lock 100 has failed, thereby controlling the alarm device to sound an alarm, so that the driver can obtain the fault information of the shift lock 100 in time, avoid the occurrence of traffic accidents caused by the shift lock 100, and thus improve the driving safety of the vehicle.

[0039] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present application, the alarm device includes: at least one acoustic reminder device and / or at least one optical reminder device.

[0040] Therein, at least one acoustic warning device and / or at least one optical warning device provides an acoustic warning and / or a visual warning to the driver.

[0041] In actual implementation, the alarm device of the embodiment of the present application may be at least one acoustic reminder device and / or at least one optical reminder device.

[0042] Among them, the acoustic reminder device can be a speaker or a buzzer. When it is determined that the shift lock 100 fails, the acoustic reminder device of the embodiment of the present application can generate an alarm prompt sound or a voice prompt, and when the acoustic reminder device generates an alarm prompt sound, it can make reminders of different frequencies and volumes according to the current vehicle speed. For example, when the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to 100km / h, the embodiment of the present application can determine that the vehicle is currently traveling on a highway, which is extremely dangerous. At this time, the frequency of the alarm prompt sound is as high as 1s / time, and the volume is the highest, so as to remind the driver to slow down and pull over, and stop in the emergency lane to check the vehicle; when the vehicle speed is less than 100km / h and greater than or equal to 60km / h, it can be determined that the vehicle is currently traveling on an expressway, which is relatively dangerous. At this time, the frequency of the alarm prompt sound can be 3s / time, and the volume is relatively high; when the vehicle speed is less than 60km / h, it can be determined that the vehicle is currently traveling on a city road, which is less dangerous. At this time, the frequency of the alarm prompt sound can be 5s / time, and the volume is relatively low, to ensure that the driver can hear it as the standard.

[0043] The optical reminder device may be a central control screen or instrument panel light or an in-vehicle ambient light, etc. When the shift lock 100 is determined to be ineffective, the optical reminder device of the embodiment of the present application may generate a reminder text to be displayed on the central control screen or to be given a warning through the instrument panel or to be given a reminder through the in-vehicle ambient light. In addition, the optical reminder device may also generate different reminder methods based on different vehicle speeds, such as the light changes from yellow to red as the vehicle speed increases, and the light flashing frequency changes from slow to fast, etc.

[0044] It should be noted that the specific reminder method can be set accordingly by technicians in this field or the driver, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0045] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present application, the gear limiting device 10 of the vehicle further includes: an identity collection device and an identity recognition device.

[0046] Among them, the identity collection device is used to collect the user's identity.

[0047] The identity recognition device is used to identify the user's identity authority based on the identity identification, and when the identity authority does not meet the preset gear shifting conditions and the actual state of any vehicle door is the open state, the controller 300 controls the shift lock 100 to be in a locked state, and when the identity authority does not meet the preset gear shifting conditions and the actual state of any vehicle door is the closed state, the controller 300 controls the shift lock 100 to be in a locked state, and when the identity authority meets the preset gear shifting conditions and the actual state of any vehicle door is the open state, the controller 300 controls the shift lock 100 to be in a locked state, and when the identity authority meets the preset gear shifting conditions and the actual state of any vehicle door is the closed state, the controller 300 controls the shift lock 100 to be in an unlocked state.

[0048] As a possible implementation method, the gear limiting device 10 of the vehicle in the embodiment of the present application may also include an identity collection device and an identity recognition device to prevent users in the vehicle, such as children, from performing gear shifting operations through identity verification, thereby ensuring the driving safety of the vehicle.

[0049] Specifically, the embodiment of the present application can collect the user's identity through an identity collection device. For example, the identity collection device can be an image collection device or a fingerprint recognition device.

[0050] Furthermore, the embodiments of the present application can utilize an identity recognition device to identify the user's identity authority, that is, whether the user is a driver, after collecting the user's identity identification. For example, when the identity collection device is an image collection device, the facial images of all users in the vehicle can be captured by an in-vehicle camera to identify whether the user currently operating the gear shift is the driver; when the identity collection device is a fingerprint recognition device, the fingerprint recognition device can be installed in the vehicle's gear shift handle to identify fingerprint or palm print information when a user touches it to determine whether the user's identity is the driver.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present application, when the identity authority does not meet the preset gear shifting condition, that is, when the user is not a driver and the actual state of any door is open, the controller 300 controls the gear shift lock 100 to be in a locked state to prevent other users from accidentally touching or maliciously shifting gears, thereby ensuring driving safety;

[0052] When the identity authority does not meet the preset gear shifting condition, that is, the user is not a driver and the actual state of any door is closed, the controller 300 controls the shift lock 100 to be in a locked state to prevent other users from accidentally touching or maliciously shifting gears, thereby ensuring driving safety;

[0053] When the identity authority reaches the preset gear shifting condition, that is, the user is a driver and the actual state of any door is open, the controller 300 controls the shift lock 100 to be in a locked state;

[0054] When the identity authority reaches the preset gear shifting condition, that is, when the user is a driver and the actual state of any door is closed, the controller 300 controls the shift lock 100 to be in the unlocked state.

[0055] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present application, the identity identifier is the user's facial information or location.

[0056] In some embodiments, the identity identifier may be the user's facial information or location, so as to determine whether the gear shifting operation is performed by the driver himself by analyzing the facial features or the location of the person performing the gear shifting operation.

[0057] For example, an embodiment of the present application can capture images of all users in the vehicle, that is, the facial features of each user and the seat distribution of each user, when the vehicle is powered on, and when performing identity recognition, compare the image inside the vehicle captured at the current moment with the image inside the vehicle at the power-on moment to perform identity recognition.

[0058] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present application, the gear limiting device 10 of the vehicle further includes: a locking reminder device.

[0059] The locking reminder device is used to provide a locking reminder when the shift lock 100 is in a locked state.

[0060] As a possible implementation method, the embodiment of the present application may also include a lock reminder device to provide a lock reminder when the shift lock 100 is in the locked state, informing the driver that the shift operation is currently prohibited. On the one hand, it can remind the driver of the door status when the door is not fully closed, and on the other hand, it can prevent the driver from forcibly shifting gears and causing wear of corresponding components.

[0061] Optionally, in one embodiment of the present application, the locking reminder device is further used to match the best reminder content and the best reminder method of the locking reminder according to the locked state and the door in the open state.

[0062] During the actual implementation process, the lock reminder device in the embodiment of the present application can match the optimal reminder content and the optimal reminder method of the lock reminder according to the locked state and the door in the open state. For example, when the shift lock 100 is in the locked state and the door is open, the optimal reminder content of the embodiment of the present application can be "The door is not closed and shifting is prohibited." and the reminder can be given through voice broadcast and / or display on the central control screen.

[0063] Among them, the reminder content and reminder method can be set by multiple schemes by technical personnel in this field based on the vehicle configuration, and the user such as the driver can choose the best reminder content and the best reminder method by himself, and no specific restrictions are made here.

[0064] Combination Figure 2 As shown, the working principle of the gear limiting device 10 of the vehicle according to the embodiment of the present application is described in detail by taking an embodiment as an example.

[0065] like Figure 2 , which is a schematic diagram of the principle of a gear limiting device 10 of a vehicle, the embodiment of the present application may include: a shift lock 100, a state detection device 200, a controller 300 and an alarm device 400.

[0066] The shift lock 100 can receive a signal from the controller 300, and allow the vehicle to shift into gear by powering on the solenoid valve, and prohibit the vehicle from shifting into gear by powering off the solenoid valve, thereby limiting the shifting of the vehicle gear, thereby effectively avoiding misoperation, preventing starting errors and parking accidents, and ensuring the safety of the driver and the vehicle at an additional safety level. The shift lock 100 has a locked state and an unlocked state. The locked state locks the current gear of the vehicle and prohibits the driver from shifting gears; the unlocked state releases the vehicle's shifting restriction and allows the driver to shift gears.

[0067] The state detecting device 200 detects the actual state of each door of the vehicle to determine whether each door of the vehicle is closed.

[0068] Among them, the state detection device 200 can reuse the door sensor of the vehicle's own safety system, and determine the actual state of each door based on the door opening or closing signal, thereby saving costs and simplifying the structure; the state detection device 200 can also be set up separately, by obtaining the state signal, door lock signal, etc. of each door, and combining with the image inside the vehicle, it can more accurately judge the actual state of each door.

[0069] When the controller 300 detects that the actual state of any door is open, it can control the shift lock 100 to be in a locked state to prohibit the vehicle from shifting gears, and when the actual state of each door is closed, it can control the shift lock 100 to switch to an unlocked state to allow the vehicle to shift gears.

[0070] The operation logic of the controller 300 may be as follows:

[0071] When the controller 300 receives a door closed signal, the solenoid valve is powered on to control the shift lock 100 to unlock, allowing the vehicle to shift into gear.

[0072] When the controller 300 receives a signal that the door is not closed, the solenoid valve is powered off to control the shift lock 100 to lock, and the vehicle gear shifting operation is prohibited at this time;

[0073] When the controller 300 receives that the vehicle speed is 0, no matter whether it receives a signal indicating that the vehicle door is closed or not, the alarm device 400 is controlled not to sound an alarm;

[0074] When the controller 300 receives a signal that the vehicle speed is not 0 and the door is not closed, the controller 300 controls the alarm device 400 to sound an alarm.

[0075] The alarm device 400 may be at least one acoustic alarm device and / or at least one optical alarm device.

[0076] Among them, the acoustic reminder device can be a speaker or a buzzer. When the shift lock 100 is determined to be failed, the acoustic reminder device of the embodiment of the present application can generate an alarm prompt sound or a voice prompt, and when the acoustic reminder device generates an alarm prompt sound, it can provide reminders of different frequencies and volumes according to the current vehicle speed.

[0077] The optical reminder device may be a central control screen or instrument panel light or an in-vehicle ambient light, etc. When the shift lock 100 is determined to be ineffective, the optical reminder device of the embodiment of the present application may generate a reminder text to be displayed on the central control screen or to be given a warning through the instrument panel or to be given a reminder through the in-vehicle ambient light. In addition, the optical reminder device may also generate different reminder methods based on different vehicle speeds, such as the light changes from yellow to red as the vehicle speed increases, and the light flashing frequency changes from slow to fast, etc.

[0078] It should be noted that the specific reminder method can be set accordingly by technicians in this field or the driver, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0079] According to the gear limiting device for a vehicle proposed in the embodiment of the present application, the gear limiting can be realized by using the gear shift lock, and the gear shift lock can be controlled accordingly by the controller based on the actual state of the vehicle door, that is, when any vehicle door is open, the controller can control the gear shift lock to lock and prohibit the vehicle from shifting into gear. When all vehicle doors are closed, the controller can control the gear shift lock to unlock and allow the vehicle to shift into gear, thereby realizing automatic locking or unlocking of the vehicle gear, preventing the vehicle from shifting into gear incorrectly due to the driver forgetting to operate the lock or accidentally touching it, and improving the vehicle's intelligence level while improving the vehicle's driving safety. Thus, the technical problem that the gear shift lock requires manual operation by the driver, has a low intelligence level, and has a large safety hazard in the related technology is solved.

[0080] Next, the gear limiting method for a vehicle proposed in an embodiment of the present application will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0081] Figure 3 It is a flow chart of the gear limiting method of a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0082] like Figure 3 As shown, the gear limiting method of the vehicle includes the following steps:

[0083] In step S301 , the actual state of each door of the vehicle is detected.

[0084] In step S302, when it is detected that the actual state of any door is open, the shift lock is controlled to be in a locked state to prohibit the vehicle from shifting into gear, and when the actual state of each door is closed, the shift lock is controlled to be switched to an unlocked state to allow the vehicle to shift into gear. It should be noted that the above explanation of the embodiment of the gear limiting device for a vehicle is also applicable to the gear limiting method for a vehicle in this embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0085] According to the vehicle gear limiting method proposed in the embodiment of the present application, the gear limiting can be achieved by using the gear shift lock, and the gear shift lock can be controlled accordingly by the controller based on the actual state of the door, that is, when any door is open, the controller can control the gear shift lock to lock and prohibit the vehicle from shifting into gear. When all doors are closed, the controller can control the gear shift lock to unlock and allow the vehicle to shift into gear, thereby realizing the automatic locking or unlocking of the vehicle gear, preventing the vehicle from shifting into gear incorrectly due to the driver forgetting to operate the lock or accidentally touching it, and improving the vehicle's intelligence level while improving the vehicle's driving safety. As a result, the technical problems in the related art that the gear shift lock requires manual operation by the driver, has a low intelligence level, and has a large safety hazard are solved.
