[0056] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the implementation methods of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0057] In this application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish the same or similar items with substantially the same role and function. It should be understood that there is no logical or temporal dependency between "first", "second", and "nth", nor is there a limitation on the quantity and execution order. It should also be understood that although the following description uses the terms first, second, etc. to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by the terms.
[0058] These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another element. For example, without departing from the scope of various examples, a first element can be referred to as a second element, and similarly, a second element can also be referred to as a first element. Both the first element and the second element can be elements, and in some cases, can be separate and different elements.
[0059] Here, at least one means one or more than one, for example, at least one element can be one element, two elements, three elements, or any other integer greater than or equal to one. And multiple means two or more than two, for example, multiple elements can be two elements, three elements, or any other integer greater than or equal to two.
[0060] The "and / or" mentioned in this article indicates that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.
[0061] It should be noted that the information (including but not limited to user device information, user personal information, etc.), data (including but not limited to data used for analysis, stored data, displayed data, etc.) and signals involved in this application are all authorized by the user or fully authorized by all parties, and the collection, use and processing of relevant data must comply with relevant laws, regulations and standards in the relevant regions.
[0062] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 The vehicle 1 includes a VCU 11 , a BCM 12 , a seat system 13 and a central control system 14 .
[0063] In an embodiment of the present application, VCU11 is used to send a seat weight detection signal to the seat system 13 after the vehicle is powered on. As an example, the seat system 13 includes a seat weight detection module 131 and a calculation module 132. Among them, after receiving the weight detection signal, the seat weight detection module 131 starts to perform seat weight detection, and sends the weight detection result to the calculation module 132 via a CAN (Controller Area Network) signal. The calculation module is used to determine whether there is a target object on the seat based on the received weight detection result, and transmit the judgment result to BCM12 via a CAN signal. BCM12 is responsible for instructing the seat system 13 whether to fold the seat based on the received judgment result. The central control system 14 is used to output the current folding status of the seat, such as outputting an alarm that the seat is prohibited from folding.
[0064] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application also defines the CAN signal as shown in Table 1 below.
[0065] Table 1
[0066]
[0067] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a seat control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to a vehicle, such as a seat system in a vehicle. Figure 2 , the method flow provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:
[0068] 201. After receiving the seat weight detection signal sent by the VCU, the seat system obtains the weight borne by the seat at the target position in the vehicle.
[0069] The target position may vary depending on the vehicle model. For example, in a five-seater vehicle, the seat at the target position refers to the back seat. For example, in a seven-seater vehicle, the seat at the target position may refer to either the middle seat or the back seat, which is not limited in this application.
[0070] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 3 As shown, after the vehicle is powered on, the VCU sends a seat weight detection signal TestSeatWeight to the seat system. As an example, the VCU sends the seat weight detection signal TestSeatWeight to the seat weight detection module of the seat system.
[0071] After receiving the seat weight detection signal TestSeatWeight, the seat weight detection module starts to detect the weight of the seat at the target position, and sends the acquired weight to the calculation module of the seat system through the CAN signal. The calculation module is responsible for determining whether there is a target object (such as a person, animal or object) on the seat at the target position according to the acquired weight, as detailed in the following step 202.
[0072] 202. When the acquired weight is greater than or equal to the weight threshold, the seat system sends a seat overload signal to the BCM; wherein, after receiving the seat overload signal, the BCM is used to feed back a first seat folding signal to the seat system and send an alarm signal to the central control system; the first seat folding signal is used to indicate that the seat is prohibited from folding; the alarm signal is used to instruct the central control system to output a prompt message, and the prompt message is used to indicate that the seat at the target position is currently prohibited from folding.
[0073] The weight threshold can be set as needed, for example, the weight threshold is 5kg (kilograms), which is not limited in this application. Taking the weight threshold value of 5kg as an example, if the obtained weight is greater than or equal to 5kg, it means that there is a target object on the seat at the target position. In this case, Figure 3 As shown, the seat system will send a seat overload signal to the BCM. Referring to Table 1, the seat overload signal in this article refers to the SeatOverLoad=0x1 signal.
[0074] After receiving the SeatOverLoad=0x1 signal, the BCM will feedback the first seat folding signal to the seat system. See Table 1, the first seat folding signal in this article refers to the SeatForbidFoldSet=0x1 signal. This signal indicates that there is a target object on the seat at the target position. It is unsafe to fold the seat at this time, and the occupants (such as the driver) are prohibited from folding the seat at the target position.
[0075] In addition, after receiving the SeatOverLoad=0x1 signal, the BCM will also send an alarm signal to the central control system. See Table 1, the alarm signal in this article refers to the SeatForbidFoldSetAlarm=0x1 signal. This signal is used to instruct the central control system to report an alarm.
[0076] As an example, the prompt message output by the central control system is in text form, for example, the central control system displays a text such as "seat folding is prohibited" on the screen. In addition, the prompt message output by the central control system can also be in the form of a combination of text and voice, which is not limited in this application.
[0077] 203. After receiving the first seat folding signal, the seat system controls the seat at the target position to remain in an unfolded state.
[0078] For this step, if the BCM indicates that the seat is prohibited from folding through the SeatForbidFoldSet=0x1 signal, the seat system will turn on the seat folding prohibition enable, that is, maintain the unfolded state of the seat at the target position, that is, the seat system will control the seat at the target position to remain in the unfolded state.
[0079] In summary, the seat control method provided in the embodiment of the present application realizes determining whether the seat at the target position in the vehicle is allowed to be folded by monitoring the seat weight, and can perform safe and reliable folding control on the vehicle seat, thereby improving the safety of vehicle use and preventing the seat back from hitting passengers, animals or objects.
[0080] Figure 4 This is a flow chart of a seat control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to a vehicle, taking the interaction between the VCU, BCM, seat system and central control system in the vehicle as an example, see Figure 4 , the method flow provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:
[0081] 401. After the vehicle is powered on, the VCU sends a seat weight detection signal to the seat system.
[0082] In an embodiment of the present application, if the seat system does not receive the seat weight detection signal TestSeatWeight sent by the VCU, the VCU will continue to send the TestSeatWeight signal to the seat system until the seat system receives the TestSeatWeight signal.
[0083] As an example, when the seat system does not receive the TestSeatWeight signal, the VCU may periodically send the TestSeatWeight signal to the seat system, which is not limited in the present application.
[0084] 402. After receiving the seat weight detection signal sent by the VCU, the seat system obtains the weight borne by the seat at the target position in the vehicle.
[0085] This step may refer to the above step 201 and will not be described in detail here.
[0086] 403. When the acquired weight is greater than or equal to the weight threshold, the seat system sends a seat overload signal to the BCM.
[0087] This step may refer to the above step 202 and will not be described again here.
[0088] 404. After receiving the seat overload signal, the BCM feeds back the first seat folding signal to the seat system and sends a warning signal to the central control system.
[0089] This step may refer to the above step 202 and will not be described again here.
[0090] 405. After receiving the first seat folding signal, the seat system controls the seat at the target position to remain in an unfolded state.
[0091] This step may refer to the above step 203 and will not be described in detail here.
[0092] 406. When the acquired weight is less than the weight threshold, the seat system sends a seat no-load signal to the BCM.
[0093] Taking the weight threshold value of 5kg as an example, if the obtained weight is less than 5kg, it means that there is no target object on the seat at the target position. In this case, Figure 3 As shown, the seat system sends a seat no-load signal to the BCM.
[0094] Referring to Table 1, the seat no-load signal in this document refers to the SeatOverLoad=0x0 signal.
[0095] 407. After receiving the seat no-load signal, the BCM feeds back a second seat folding signal to the seat system, wherein the second seat folding signal is used to indicate a foldable seat.
[0096] After receiving the SeatOverLoad=0x0 signal, the BCM will feedback the second seat folding signal to the seat system. See Table 1, the second seat folding signal in this article refers to the SeatForbidFoldSet=0x0 signal. This signal indicates that there is no target object on the seat at the target position, and it is safe to fold the seat at this time, allowing the occupant (such as the driver) to fold the seat at the target position.
[0097] 408. After receiving the second seat folding signal, in response to detecting a folding operation of the seat at the target position, the seat system controls the seat at the target position to fold.
[0098] In some embodiments, a switch button for folding the seat at the target position is provided in the vehicle; in response to a trigger operation of the switch button by a person in the vehicle (such as a driver), it is determined that a folding operation of the seat at the target position is detected, and the seat system controls the folding of the seat at the target position. As an example, the switch button can be a physical button or a virtual button displayed on the central control screen, which is not limited in this application.
[0099] In other embodiments, the seat system controls the folding of the seat at the target position, including but not limited to the following manner: controlling the folding of the seat at the target position according to the folding requirement of the user.
[0100] It should be noted that the user's folding requirements are determined based on the seat folding options displayed by the central control system, wherein different seat folding options correspond to different folding angles of the seat back, or different seat folding options correspond to different numbers of seats that can be folded.
[0101] As an example, multiple seat folding options are displayed. Through these seat folding options, the occupant of the vehicle (such as the driver) can choose the number of seats to fold, such as one, two or three seats in the rear row, etc. This application does not limit this.
[0102] As another example, multiple seat folding options are displayed. Through these seat folding options, the occupant of the vehicle (such as the driver) can select the folding angle of the seat back, such as choosing to fold the seat completely (i.e., the seat is laid flat), which is not limited in this application.
[0103] In some other embodiments, when the acquired weight is less than the weight threshold, the seat system sends a seat no-load signal to the BCM, including:
[0104] When the acquired weight is less than the weight threshold, the seat system receives the image recognition result sent by the BCM; wherein, the image recognition result is obtained by the BCM after acquiring the image of the seat at the target position by performing image recognition on the acquired image; the seat system sends a seat no-load signal to the BCM only when the image recognition result indicates that there is no specific object on the seat at the target position.
[0105] In other embodiments, when the image recognition result indicates that a specific object is present on the seat at the target position, the seat system sends a seat overload signal to the BCM.
[0106] Based on the above description, it can be seen that in addition to weight, the embodiments of the present application can also combine other factors to make a more accurate judgment on whether there is a target object on the seat. This method of determining the seat load condition through multi-dimensional data can safely and reliably control the folding of the vehicle seat, further improving the safety of the vehicle.
[0107] In other embodiments, the above-mentioned specific items include any of the following:
[0108] 1. Items whose size is greater than a size threshold; for example, items whose height is greater than a height threshold, items whose width is greater than a width threshold, and items whose length is greater than a length threshold. This application does not limit this.
[0109] 2. Fragile items, such as glass items.
[0110] 3. Items that are easily soiled, such as clothes or food.
[0111] In other embodiments, when the acquired weight is less than the weight threshold, the BCM is also used to send a cancellation alarm signal to the central control system after receiving the seat unloaded signal, wherein the cancellation alarm signal is used to instruct the central control system to clear the prompt message. Referring to Table 1, the cancellation alarm signal in this article refers to the SeatForbidFoldSetAlarm=0x0 signal, which is used to instruct the central control system to cancel the alarm, such as clearing the text "Seat Forbid Folding" displayed on the central control display screen. It should be noted that if the BCM has not reported the alarm to the central control system before, it will not be processed.
[0112] In summary, the seat control method provided in the embodiment of the present application realizes determining whether the seat at the target position in the vehicle is allowed to be folded by monitoring the seat weight, and can perform safe and reliable folding control on the vehicle seat, thereby improving the safety of vehicle use and preventing the seat back from hitting passengers, animals or objects.
