[0002] In the process from manufacturing to sales, vehicles need to undergo a series of inspections or tests, and the tests experienced at different stages are different. Since different tests have different requirements for vehicle operating conditions, when the vehicle is in a certain stage, the vehicle's operating conditions need to be adjusted to the mode corresponding to that stage. For example, when the vehicle just rolls off the assembly line, the vehicle needs to undergo a qualification test, at which time the vehicle needs to be in an operating mode where all functions are normally turned on; and when the vehicle is in transit, there is no need for testing or inspection of the vehicle, at which time the vehicle can be controlled to be in an operating mode where most functions are turned off and only some basic functions are turned on.

[0003] In the related art, the tester will manually adjust the vehicle's operating mode when the corresponding stage comes. However, manual adjustment may result in omissions or wrong settings. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0027] In the process from manufacturing to sales, vehicles need to undergo a series of inspections or tests, and the tests experienced at different stages are different. Since different tests have different requirements for vehicle operating conditions, when the vehicle is in a certain stage, the vehicle's operating conditions need to be adjusted to the mode corresponding to that stage. For example, when the vehicle just rolls off the assembly line, the vehicle needs to undergo a qualification test, at which time the vehicle needs to be in an operating mode where all functions are normally turned on; and when the vehicle is in transit, there is no need for testing or inspection of the vehicle, at which time the vehicle can be controlled to be in an operating mode where most functions are turned off and only some basic functions are turned on.

[0028] In the related art, the tester will manually adjust the vehicle's operating mode when the corresponding stage comes. However, manual adjustment may result in omissions or wrong settings.

[0029] Based on this, in order to solve the problem of how to avoid omission or wrong setting when setting the working mode of the vehicle, the present application provides a vehicle control method, device and system. Figure 1 An application scenario diagram of a vehicle control method is shown. In the vehicle control method of the present application, the status information of the vehicle can be recorded and updated with the help of a third-party device and a control terminal, so that the vehicle can be controlled by the control terminal to automatically enter a target mode corresponding to the current status information. Specifically, the target mode of the vehicle is determined through the status information of the vehicle, and then the vehicle is controlled to be in a target mode corresponding to the status information. The method described in the present application can automatically control the vehicle to be in a target mode corresponding to the actual stage according to the actual stage of the vehicle in the supply chain management cycle, so that the vehicle can automatically enter the target mode corresponding to the actual stage without the intervention of testers, avoiding the intervention of human factors, and finally avoiding the problem of omission or wrong setting when setting the working mode of the vehicle. The specific method is as follows: The first aspect of the present application proposes an embodiment, such as Figure 2 A vehicle control method step diagram is shown, combined with Figure 1 The application scenario shown is used to illustrate this embodiment. The method is applied to a vehicle, specifically to a central controller of the vehicle, and the main steps include: Step S101, obtaining the status information of the vehicle sent by the control terminal.

[0030] The status information includes at least the actual stage of the vehicle in the vehicle supply chain management cycle.

[0031] The vehicle supply chain management cycle refers to the entire process from vehicle manufacturing to delivery to consumers. According to different classification criteria, the vehicle supply chain management cycle can be divided into different stages. For example, the vehicle supply chain management cycle can be divided into the off-line stage, the waiting to enter the warehouse stage, the warehoused stage, the transportation stage, the dealer inventory stage, and the actual sales stage.

[0032] Among them, the off-line stage refers to the stage when the vehicle completes manufacturing and leaves the assembly line, the waiting-to-warehouse stage refers to the stage when the vehicle has left the assembly line and is waiting to enter the warehouse at the manufacturing location, the warehoused stage refers to the stage when the vehicle is stored in the warehouse at the manufacturing location, the transportation stage refers to the stage when the vehicle is transported from the manufacturing location to the sales location, the dealer inventory stage refers to the stage when the vehicle is stored in the warehouse at the sales location, and the actually sold stage refers to the stage when the vehicle has been sold to consumers.

[0033] The control terminal can be a personal computer, cloud server, mobile phone, tablet, etc. that is independent of the vehicle. A communication connection is established between the control terminal and the vehicle, and the control terminal sends the vehicle status information to the vehicle through the communication connection between the control terminal and the vehicle. In an optional embodiment, the communication connection between the control terminal and the vehicle can be an Internet connection, a Bluetooth connection, or a wireless signal connection.

[0034] The status information sent by the control terminal may be sent to the control terminal by other third-party devices, or may be manually input into the control terminal by the user of the control terminal. In an optional implementation, the status information may include a stage identifier of the actual stage. The stage identifier may be a digital identifier or a text identifier or other identifier that can be recognized by a computer.

[0035] Step S102: determining a target mode of the vehicle from a plurality of operating modes based on the state information.

[0036] Among them, the operating parameters of the vehicle in different operating modes are different.

[0037] The operating parameters of a vehicle refer to parameters used to describe the working conditions of the vehicle. Common operating parameters may include one or more of the vehicle's power consumption, charging efficiency, window position, engine output torque, etc. It is worth noting that the operating parameters in this application include but are not limited to the parameters listed in this embodiment.

[0038] The status information includes the actual stage of the vehicle in the vehicle supply chain management cycle. The different actual stages represent the different operating modes required by the vehicle. Therefore, the target mode required by the vehicle can be determined based on the status information.

[0039] Taking the vehicle supply chain management cycle including the offline stage, the waiting stage, the warehouse stage, the transportation stage, the dealer inventory stage and the actual sales stage, and the multiple operating modes including the transportation mode and the normal mode as an example, step S102 is specifically described. Among them, the power consumption of the vehicle in the transportation mode is lower than the power consumption in the normal mode, and the charging efficiency of the vehicle in the transportation mode is higher than the charging efficiency in the normal mode.

[0040] When the actual stage in the status information is any one of the waiting-for-warehouse stage, the already-warehouse stage, the transportation stage, and the dealer inventory stage, the target mode of the vehicle can be determined as the transportation mode; when the actual stage in the status information is the offline stage or the actually-sold stage, the target mode of the vehicle can be determined as the normal mode.

[0041] Step S103, controlling the vehicle to be in the target mode.

[0042] After determining the target mode, the central controller of the vehicle can send a control signal corresponding to the target mode to the sub-controllers in charge of different assemblies or systems of the vehicle, so that the sub-controllers control the corresponding assemblies or systems to be in a state corresponding to the target mode.

[0043] For example, the central controller determines that the target mode is the transport mode, where the battery charging efficiency in the transport mode is 90%. The central controller can send a control signal to the sub-controller in charge of the battery, so that the sub-controller in charge of the battery controls the battery charging efficiency to 90%.

[0044] The method described in this embodiment determines the target mode of the vehicle through the vehicle's status information, and then controls the vehicle to be in the target mode corresponding to the status information. The method described in this embodiment can automatically control the vehicle to be in the target mode corresponding to the actual stage according to the actual stage of the vehicle in the supply chain management cycle, so that the vehicle can automatically enter the target mode corresponding to the actual stage without the intervention of the tester, avoiding the intervention of human factors, and finally avoiding the problem of omission or wrong setting when setting the vehicle's working mode.

[0045] In some exemplary embodiments, the state information further includes type information of the vehicle, and the type information is used to indicate whether the vehicle is a vehicle for sale. Determining the target mode of the vehicle from a plurality of operating modes based on the state information in step S102 may be specifically implemented in the following manner: In a case where the type information indicates that the vehicle is a vehicle for sale, a target mode of the vehicle is determined from a plurality of operating modes based on the actual stage.

[0046] Vehicles for sale refer to vehicles that are ready for sale but have not yet been purchased. The counterpart of vehicles for sale is vehicles not for sale, which are vehicles that are not for sale. Vehicles not for sale can generally be called test vehicles, which are vehicles used by the OEM for tests such as collision tests or wind tunnel tests. Since vehicles not for sale are not produced for sale, the actual stage of vehicles not for sale cannot characterize the different operating modes required for the vehicle. In other words, when the type information indicates that the vehicle is a vehicle not for sale, the target mode of the vehicle is not determined based on the actual stage.

[0047] In the case where the type information indicates that the vehicle is a vehicle for sale, it is shown that the actual stage can characterize the operating mode required by the vehicle, and thus the target mode of the vehicle can be determined based on the actual stage.

[0048] In an optional implementation, the type information may be a digital identifier or a text identifier.

[0049] In an optional implementation, when the type information indicates that the vehicle is not a vehicle for sale, the vehicle may be controlled to be in an operating mode that does not vary with the actual stage.

[0050] The state information in this embodiment includes two types of information: the actual stage of the vehicle and type information. Among them, the difference in type information indicates whether the operating mode required by the vehicle is associated with the actual stage, and the difference in actual stage indicates different operating modes required by the vehicle. In this embodiment, the target mode is determined based on the actual stage when the type information indicates that the vehicle is a vehicle for sale. It can ensure that the target mode is determined based on the actual stage when the required operating mode of the vehicle is associated with the actual stage, thereby ensuring that the target mode is consistent with the actual needs of the vehicle.

[0051] In some exemplary embodiments, before controlling the vehicle to be in the target mode in step S103, the method further includes the following steps: Step S104, obtaining mode control information of the vehicle.

[0052] The mode control information includes a power mode and / or accumulated mileage.

[0053] Step S103, controlling the vehicle to be in the target mode, can be specifically achieved in the following manner: When the mode control information satisfies a corresponding preset condition, the vehicle is controlled to be in the target mode.

[0054] Among them, the preset condition corresponding to the power mode is being in power-on mode, and the preset condition corresponding to the accumulated mileage is less than a preset mileage.

[0055] The mode control information refers to information required when controlling the vehicle to be in a target mode, and may be the power mode of the vehicle, or the accumulated mileage, or the power mode and the accumulated mileage.

[0056] The power mode includes a power-on mode or a power-off mode. When the vehicle is in the power-on mode, all the electronic components of the vehicle operate normally. At this time, if the vehicle is controlled to be in the target mode, all the electronic components can change the operating parameters and switch to the operating parameters corresponding to the target mode, so the vehicle can be controlled to be in the target mode. When the vehicle is in the power-off mode, all the electronic components of the vehicle are in a dormant state. At this time, if the vehicle is controlled to be in the target mode, all the electronic components cannot change the operating parameters, which will cause confusion in the central controller, so the vehicle should not be controlled to be in the target mode.

[0057] Cumulative mileage refers to the total mileage that the vehicle has traveled from the time it rolled off the production line to the current moment. The length of the cumulative mileage, to a certain extent, indicates that the vehicle is in a normal vehicle supply chain management cycle. When the cumulative mileage is greater than or equal to the preset mileage, it indicates that the vehicle has deviated from the normal supply chain management cycle, so the vehicle should not be controlled in target mode; when the cumulative mileage is less than the preset mileage, it indicates that the vehicle is still in a normal supply chain management cycle, so the vehicle can be controlled in target mode.

[0058] In an optional embodiment, when the mode control information includes the power mode and the accumulated mileage, when the power mode is in the power-on mode and the accumulated mileage is less than the preset mileage, the vehicle is controlled to be in the target mode; when the power mode is in the power-off mode or the accumulated mileage is greater than or equal to the preset mileage, the vehicle is not controlled to be in the target mode.

[0059] In an optional implementation, the preset mileage may be 50 km.

[0060] It can be seen that in this embodiment, when the mode control information meets the corresponding preset conditions, the vehicle is controlled to be in the target mode, which can ensure that there will be no negative impact on the vehicle after completing the switch of the target mode, thereby ensuring that the vehicle can still be used normally after being in the target mode.

[0061] In some exemplary embodiments, controlling the vehicle to be in the target mode in step S103 may be implemented in the following manner: A request signal is sent to the control end, so that the control end sends an authorization signal to the vehicle in response to the request signal, and the vehicle is controlled to be in a target mode in response to the authorization signal sent by the control end.

[0062] The request signal is used to inquire the control end whether the vehicle is allowed to be in the target mode, and the authorization signal is used to instruct the control end to allow the vehicle to be in the target mode.

[0063] After the vehicle determines that the vehicle should be in the target mode based on the status information, a request signal may be sent to the control end. The vehicle asks the control end whether the vehicle is allowed to be in the target mode through the request signal. When the control end believes that the vehicle is allowed to be in the target mode, the control end sends an authorization signal to the vehicle, thereby informing the vehicle that it can be in the target mode through the authorization signal. The vehicle enters the target mode under the instruction of the authorization signal.

[0064] For example, when the target mode of the vehicle is the transport mode, the control end sends an authorization signal to the vehicle to allow the vehicle to be in the transport mode in response to a request signal for inquiring whether the control end is allowed to be in the transport mode, and the vehicle enters the transport mode in response to the authorization signal; when the target mode of the vehicle is the normal mode, the control end sends an authorization signal to the vehicle to allow the vehicle to be in the normal mode in response to a request signal for inquiring whether the control end is allowed to be in the normal mode, and the vehicle enters the normal mode in response to the authorization signal.

[0065] In an optional implementation, after receiving the request signal, if the controller believes that the vehicle cannot be in the target mode, it may also send a rejection signal to the vehicle to inform the vehicle that it is prohibited to be in the target mode, or not send any signal to the vehicle.

[0066] Before controlling the vehicle to enter the target mode, this embodiment first inquires the control end through an authorization signal whether it can be in the target mode, and enters the target mode only after the control end authorizes it, so that the vehicle can switch the target mode under the control of the control end, thereby improving the controllability of the vehicle.

[0067] In some exemplary embodiments, sending the request signal to the control end in the previous embodiment can be implemented in the following ways: Acquire a power mode of the vehicle, where the power mode includes a power-on mode or a power-off mode; When the power mode of the vehicle is the power-on mode, a request signal is sent to the control end.

[0068] Signals are transmitted between the vehicle and the control end through a communication transmission connection. When the vehicle's power mode is the power-off mode, the vehicle's onboard communication device is in a dormant state, and the vehicle cannot transmit signals to the control end. When the vehicle's power mode is the power-on mode, the onboard communication device is in an awake state, and the vehicle can transmit signals to the control end. Therefore, a request signal should be sent to the control end when the vehicle's power mode is the power-on mode.

[0069] In this embodiment, the request signal is sent to the control end only when the power mode of the vehicle is the power-on mode, which can ensure the successful sending of the request signal, thereby avoiding the situation where the control end cannot receive the request signal.

[0070] In some exemplary embodiments, reference Figure 3 A method step diagram of controlling a vehicle based on new state information is shown. After controlling the vehicle to be in the target mode in step S103, the method further includes the following steps: Step S105, upon receiving the new status information of the vehicle sent by the control end, determining the updated target mode of the vehicle from the plurality of operating modes based on the new status information.

[0071] Step S106 , when the updated target mode is different from the target mode before updating, controlling the vehicle to switch to the updated target mode.

[0072] After the vehicle is controlled to be in the target mode, if new status information sent by the control end is received, the target mode of the vehicle should also be updated. When the vehicle receives new status information, the target mode in step S103 becomes the target mode of the vehicle before the status information is updated, referred to as the target mode before the update. The target mode determined by the vehicle based on the new status information is the updated target mode.

[0073] When the updated target mode is the same as the target mode before the update, the vehicle can be controlled to remain in the target mode before the update. When the updated target mode is different from the target mode before the update, the vehicle can be controlled to switch to the updated target mode.

[0074] In an optional implementation, when the updated target mode is different from the target mode before the update, the vehicle can send a request signal to the control end, asking the control end whether to allow the vehicle to enter the updated target mode through the request signal. If the control end responds to the request signal and sends an authorization signal to the vehicle indicating that the control end allows the vehicle to enter the updated target mode, the vehicle switches to the updated target mode. When the updated target mode is the same as the target mode before the update, the vehicle does not need to send a request signal to the control end.

[0075] When new status information is received, this embodiment determines an updated target mode based on the new status information, and when the updated target mode is different from the target mode before the update, controls the vehicle to be in the updated target mode, so that the vehicle's target mode can be updated as the status information is updated, thereby enhancing the timeliness of vehicle control.

[0076] Based on the same inventive concept, Figure 4 Another method step diagram of a vehicle control method is shown. The present application also proposes a vehicle control method applied to a control end, which mainly includes: Step S201, obtaining vehicle status information.

[0077] The status information includes at least the actual stage of the vehicle in the vehicle supply chain management cycle.

[0078] Step S202, sending the status information of the vehicle to the vehicle, so that the vehicle determines the target mode of the vehicle from a plurality of operating modes based on the status information, and then controls the vehicle to be in the target mode.

[0079] The operating parameters of the vehicle in different operating modes are different.

[0080] The status information of the control terminal can be obtained through a third-party device, such as a barcode scanner, a personal computer, a handheld mobile terminal, etc. connected to the control terminal.

[0081] When the third-party device is a barcode scanner, the vehicle should have a barcode or QR code storing the status information. The barcode scanner obtains the status information by parsing the barcode or QR code. In an optional implementation, the third-party device and the control terminal can be connected via Bluetooth or radio.

[0082] The user inputs the status information of the vehicle through a third-party device, so that the control end obtains the status information from the third-party device.

[0083] After the control end obtains the status information, when the vehicle switches to the power-on state and establishes a communication connection with the control end, the control end sends the status information to the vehicle through the communication connection established between the control end and the vehicle, so that the vehicle determines the corresponding target mode based on the status information and controls the vehicle to be in the target mode. Each time the vehicle establishes a communication connection with the control end, the control end can send at least one sequence of status information to the vehicle.

[0084] In an optional implementation, after acquiring the status information, the control end may first detect whether the vehicle is in the power-on mode, and send the status information to the vehicle when it is detected that the vehicle is in the power-on mode.

[0085] The method described in this embodiment determines the target mode of the vehicle through the vehicle's status information, and then controls the vehicle to be in the target mode corresponding to the status information. The method described in this embodiment can automatically control the vehicle to be in the target mode corresponding to the actual stage according to the actual stage of the vehicle in the supply chain management cycle, so that the vehicle can automatically enter the target mode corresponding to the actual stage without the intervention of the tester, avoiding the intervention of human factors, and finally avoiding the problem of omission or wrong setting when setting the vehicle's working mode.

[0086] In some exemplary embodiments, the method further comprises: When new status information of the vehicle is acquired, the new status information is sent to the vehicle so that the vehicle determines an updated target mode of the vehicle from the multiple operating modes based on the new status information, and when the updated target mode is different from the target mode before the update, the vehicle is controlled to switch to the updated target mode.

[0087] In some exemplary embodiments, the method further comprises: In the case of receiving a request signal sent by the vehicle, in response to the request signal of the vehicle, sending an authorization signal to the vehicle, so that the vehicle responds to the authorization signal sent by the control end and controls the vehicle to be in the target mode. The request signal is used to inquire the control end whether to allow the vehicle to be in the target mode, and the authorization signal is used to instruct the control end to allow the vehicle to be in the target mode.

[0088] Based on the above embodiments, reference Figure 5 A flow chart of a vehicle control method is shown, and the vehicle control method described in this application will be exemplarily described below: The vehicle control method described in this application specifically includes the following steps: First, the control end obtains the vehicle status information from the third-party device and sends the status information to the vehicle. The status information includes the actual stage of the vehicle in the vehicle supply chain management cycle and the type information of the vehicle. The type information is used to indicate whether the vehicle is a vehicle for sale. The actual stage is any one of the offline stage, the waiting stage, the warehouse stage, the transportation stage, the dealer inventory stage and the actual sales stage.

[0089] In the case where the type information indicates that the vehicle is not a vehicle for sale, the method of the present application ends.

[0090] When the type information indicates that the vehicle is a vehicle for sale, the target mode of the vehicle is determined from a plurality of transport modes and normal modes based on the actual stage. Specifically, when the actual stage is any one of the stage to be put into storage, the stage already put into storage, the transport stage, and the dealer inventory stage, the target mode of the vehicle is determined to be the transport mode; when the actual stage is the stage already off the production line or the stage already sold, the target mode of the vehicle is determined to be the normal mode.

[0091] Afterwards, the vehicle obtains the mode control information of the vehicle. If the mode control information satisfies the corresponding preset condition, a request signal is sent to the control end when the power mode of the vehicle is the power-on mode. If the mode control information does not satisfy the corresponding preset condition, the method of the present application is terminated. The mode control information includes at least one of the power mode and the accumulated mileage. The preset condition corresponding to the power mode is that it is in the power-on mode, and the preset condition corresponding to the accumulated mileage is that it is less than the preset mileage.

[0092] After the control end receives the request signal, the control end sends an authorization signal to the vehicle in response to the request signal. The vehicle controls the vehicle to be in the target mode in response to the authorization signal. The request signal is used to inquire the control end whether to allow the vehicle to be in the target mode, and the authorization signal is used to instruct the control end to allow the vehicle to be in the target mode.

[0093] In addition, when the control end receives new control information, the control end will also send new control information to the vehicle. After receiving the new control information, the vehicle determines the updated target mode of the vehicle from multiple operating modes based on the new state information. When the updated target mode is different from the target mode before the update, the vehicle is controlled to switch to the updated target mode. When the updated target mode is the same as the target mode before the update, the vehicle is controlled to remain unchanged in the target mode before the update.

[0094] Based on the above embodiments, the following takes a specific application scenario as an example to specifically illustrate the vehicle control method described in the present application. In this example, the control end is a cloud server, the multiple operating modes include a transportation mode and a normal mode, and the vehicle supply chain management cycle includes the offline stage, the waiting stage, the warehouse stage, the transportation stage, the dealer inventory stage, and the actual sales stage: First, after the vehicle establishes a communication connection with the cloud server, the cloud server sends the actual stage of the vehicle in the vehicle supply chain management cycle and the type information of the vehicle to the vehicle. After receiving the actual stage and type information, if the vehicle determines that the current working mode of the vehicle is not the transportation mode, and the actual stage is any one of the waiting to enter the warehouse stage, the entered warehouse stage, and the transportation stage, and the type information indicates that the vehicle is a vehicle for sale, then when the vehicle is in the power-on mode, a request signal is sent to the cloud server to inquire whether the cloud server allows the vehicle to be in the transportation mode.

[0095] After receiving the actual stage and type information, if the vehicle determines that the current operating mode of the vehicle is the transportation mode and the actual stage is the sold stage, and the type information indicates that the vehicle is a vehicle for sale, then when the vehicle is in the power-on mode, a request signal is sent to the cloud server to inquire whether the cloud server allows the vehicle to be in normal mode.

[0096] After receiving the actual stage and type information, if the vehicle determines that the type information indicates that the vehicle is not a vehicle for sale, or determines that the actual stage of the vehicle is the offline stage or the dealer inventory stage and the type information indicates that the vehicle is a vehicle for sale, then when the vehicle is in power-on mode, a signal without inquiry information is sent to the cloud server.

[0097] When the cloud server receives a request signal asking the cloud server whether to allow the vehicle to be in transport mode, it sends an authorization signal to the vehicle indicating that the cloud server allows the vehicle to be in transport mode. When the cloud server receives a request signal asking the cloud server whether to allow the vehicle to be in normal mode, it sends an authorization signal to the vehicle indicating that the cloud server allows the vehicle to be in normal mode. When the cloud server receives a signal without inquiry information, it does not send an authorization signal to the vehicle.
