[0056] This embodiment provides a schematic diagram of a vehicle taillight diagnostic circuit. Figure 1 As shown, the taillight detection circuit may include: a headlight controller, a diagnostic circuit, multiple taillights and multiple constant current chips; the multiple constant current chips are respectively connected to the multiple taillights one by one, for receiving headlight control instructions, controlling the on and off states of the multiple taillights according to the headlight control instructions, and obtaining working signals of the multiple taillights when they are in the on and off states; the headlight controller is connected to the multiple constant current chips, for obtaining multiple working signals, and aggregating the multiple working signals to generate pulse signals; the diagnostic circuit is connected to the headlight controller, for identifying the pulse signal, and outputting the detection result signal, and the number of the first output channels occupied by the pulse signal is less than the number of the second output channels occupied by the multiple taillights.

[0057] like Figure 1 In the circuit shown, after the vehicle light control instruction is filtered and processed by the step-down constant voltage module chip, the constant current chip is controlled to control the on and off state of multiple tail lights respectively. Among them, exemplarily, the vehicle light control instruction is for controlling the on and off state of at least one of the clearance lights, turn lights, fog lights, reversing lights and automatic auxiliary driving lights. At the same time, while controlling the on and off of multiple tail lights, the constant current chip obtains the working signals of the multiple tail lights and transmits the working signals to the vehicle light controller MCU. The vehicle light controller aggregates the working signals, generates pulse signals, and sends the pulse signals to the diagnostic circuit for diagnosis. The diagnostic circuit provides diagnostic feedback on the recognition results of the corresponding pulse signals. The circuit of this embodiment is used to aggregate the working signals so that the working signals of the multiple tail lights can occupy less resources and reduce the design cost of the lamps.

[0058] In one possible embodiment, the diagnostic circuit, such as Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 A structural diagram of a diagnostic circuit provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, including: a first NMOS tube Q, a first capacitor C, a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2 and a third resistor Rn; the input end of the diagnostic circuit is used to obtain a working signal from the I / O port of the vehicle light controller MCU, the first end of the first resistor R1 serves as the input end of the diagnostic circuit, the second end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the first end of the first capacitor C, the second end of the first capacitor C is connected to the first end of the second resistor R2, the second end of the first capacitor C is grounded, the second end of the second resistor R2 is connected to the source of the first NMOS tube Q, the second end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the gate of the first NMOS tube Q, the drain of the first NMOS tube Q passes through the third resistor Rn as the output end of the diagnostic circuit, and outputs a diagnostic signal.

[0059] In a possible embodiment, the multi-way taillights include at least one of: a clearance light, a turn signal light, a fog light, a reversing light, and an automatic auxiliary driving light.

[0060] In a possible embodiment, the first output channel includes: a first feedback channel, a second feedback channel and a third feedback channel;

[0061] The first feedback channel is used to output a first pulse signal representing a turn signal;

[0062] The second feedback channel is used to output a second pulse signal of the clearance light signal and the fog light signal;

[0063] The third feedback channel is used to output a third pulse signal of the reversing light signal and the automatic auxiliary driving light signal set.

[0064] This embodiment provides a vehicle taillight detection method, such as Figure 3 As shown, a flow chart of a vehicle taillight diagnosis method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown, including:

[0065] Step 301, in response to a vehicle light control instruction, controlling the on / off state of multiple tail lights according to the vehicle light control instruction, and obtaining working signals of the multiple tail lights when they are in the on / off state;

[0066] Step 302, performing signal aggregation on multiple working signals to generate a pulse signal;

[0067] Step 303, controlling the diagnosis circuit to identify the pulse signal and outputting a detection result signal, wherein the number of first output channels occupied by the pulse signal is smaller than the number of second output channels occupied by the multiple tail lights.

[0068] In the content of this embodiment, before the pulse signal is identified, the content of this embodiment further explains the relevant instructions for signal aggregation of multiple working signals, that is, the pulse signal generated by the multiple working signals after the signal aggregation is transmitted through a transmission path less than the number of taillights of the multiple taillights, and the subsequent signal identification is also to perform corresponding signal diagnosis based on the pulse signal in the transmission path, so as to confirm the detection result of the taillight. The technical solution proposed in this embodiment can effectively reduce the transmission channel of the working signal, reduce resource occupation, and reduce the design cost of the vehicle taillight detection circuit under the premise of realizing the judgment of the working state of the taillight.

[0069] In a possible embodiment, performing signal aggregation on multiple working signals to generate a pulse signal includes:

[0070] The turn signal diagnostic signal is used as the first pulse signal; the position light signal and the fog light signal are aggregated to generate the second pulse signal; the reversing light signal and the automatic assisted driving ADAS light signal are aggregated to generate the third pulse signal.

[0071] In this embodiment, the process of signal collection is further described. When the vehicle taillights include clearance lights, turn signals, fog lights, reversing lights and automatic auxiliary driving lights, the working signals of the taillights are respectively collected. Among them, the clearance light signals and fog light signals are collected, the reversing light signals and automatic auxiliary driving ADAS light signals are collected, and the turn signal diagnosis signal is taken as a single signal. This embodiment further proposes a specific process for further collecting the working signals of the taillights, that is, the signals are transmitted through one signal and one transmission path respectively, and subsequent signal diagnosis is performed. The technical solution of this embodiment can effectively perform effective signal integration based on the number of vehicle taillights, and reduce the number of channels occupied by signal transmission. Furthermore, the signal collection targeted by the technical solution of this embodiment is a signal collection based on the voltage working signal. At the same time, on the basis of the two-by-two collection of the working signals, the allocation of the two-by-two collections can be further adjusted according to the signal collection method proposed in this embodiment. For example, the turn signal and the fog light are further collected. Other distribution and collection methods of the working signals of the vehicle taillights are also within the protection scope of the technical solution of this embodiment.

[0072] In a possible embodiment, the first output channel includes a first feedback channel, a second feedback channel, and a third feedback channel;

[0073] Before the control diagnosis circuit identifies the pulse signal working signal and outputs the diagnosis result signal, the method further includes:

[0074] The first pulse signal is transmitted in the first feedback channel; the second pulse signal is transmitted in the second feedback channel; and the third pulse signal is transmitted in the third feedback channel;

[0075] Controlling the diagnosis circuit to identify the pulse signal and output the detection result signal includes: controlling the diagnosis circuit to identify multiple pulse signals and output the detection result signal.

[0076] In the technical solution of this embodiment, for the output channel, the design is further divided into a corresponding number of feedback channels according to the division of the pulse signal, and the pulse signal and the feedback channel are correspondingly allocated, so that the preset pulse signal can be transmitted in the preset feedback channel, and in the subsequent process of identifying the pulse signal, the multiple pulse signals are identified separately, so as to accurately realize the identification and correspondence of multiple taillight signals.

[0077] In a possible embodiment, controlling the diagnosis circuit to identify the multiple pulse signals and outputting a detection result signal includes:

[0078] Confirm the feedback path corresponding to the pulse signal, the feedback path is at least one of the first feedback channel, the second feedback channel and the third feedback channel; control the diagnostic circuit to identify the working pulse of the pulse signal in the feedback path; if the voltage value of the working pulse does not exceed the preset voltage value, output the detection result as a normal detection result signal.

[0079] In the present embodiment, the detection process of the pulse signal is further described, that is, the voltage value of the pulse signal is judged to confirm whether the taillight corresponding to the pulse signal is abnormal. For example, the taillights corresponding to the current pulse signal are the outline lights and fog lights. When the two are working normally, the output voltage value is 0-1.5, so the preset voltage value is set to 1.5V, and when it is judged that the voltage value of the working pulse is 1.2V, it does not exceed the preset voltage value, and it can be confirmed that the outline lights and fog lights are in normal working state. Therefore, the detection results for the two are normal.

[0080] The technical solution of this embodiment is established to achieve rapid judgment of the pulse signal. The pulse signal contains working signals corresponding to at least two types of taillights. Therefore, the technical solution of this embodiment can achieve rapid judgment based on the working characteristics of the two when both are in normal working state, further shorten the diagnosis process and save diagnosis time. Compared with the design scheme in which each taillight corresponds to a detection feedback line, the solution of this embodiment can eliminate the need to detect each taillight separately when the taillight is in normal working state, reduce the detection process and save detection resources.

[0081] In a possible embodiment, after the control diagnosis circuit identifies the working pulse of the pulse signal, the method further includes:

[0082] If the voltage value of the working pulse exceeds the preset voltage value, it is confirmed that the taillight corresponding to the feedback path is working abnormally; the control diagnosis circuit identifies the duty cycle and voltage period of the working pulse in the feedback path as the voltage identification result; and the type of taillight that is working abnormally is confirmed based on the voltage identification result.

[0083] In the content of this embodiment, when the voltage value of the working pulse exceeds the preset voltage value, it can be confirmed that at least one taillight corresponding to the working pulse has an abnormal operation. For example, when the voltage value of the first pulse signal corresponding to the turn signal is greater than the preset voltage value of 1.5V, it can be confirmed that the turn signal fails. At this time, the working pulse is further identified to confirm the type of taillight with abnormal operation. In the technical solution of this embodiment, the process of further identifying the working pulse is to identify the duty cycle and voltage cycle of the working pulse. The abnormal duty cycle and voltage cycle reflected by the abnormal working pulse can correspond to the corresponding type of abnormal taillight. In other words, the type of taillight with abnormal operation can be confirmed based on the duty cycle and voltage cycle of the working pulse, and abnormal feedback of the taillight can be performed. Exemplarily, when it is confirmed that the voltage value of the second pulse signal transmitted in the second feedback channel exceeds the preset voltage value, the duty cycle of the second pulse signal is 50%, the period is 100ms-500ms, the fog lamp is disabled, and the outline lamp is normal; the duty cycle is 100%, the period is 100ms-500ms, the fog lamp is normal, and the outline lamp is disabled. When it is confirmed that the voltage value of the third pulse signal transmitted in the third feedback channel exceeds the preset voltage value, the duty cycle of the third pulse signal is 50%, the period is 100ms-500ms, the ADAS lamp is disabled, and the reversing lamp is normal; the duty cycle is 100%, the period is 100ms-500ms, the ADAS lamp is normal, and the reversing lamp is disabled.

[0084] At the same time, in a further embodiment, for confirmation and feedback of abnormal taillights, when both lights represented by the same pulse signal fail, the diagnosis result signal is confirmed and output in a preset order. For example, when both fog lights and outline lights fail, confirmation and output of outline light abnormality is prioritized; when both ADAS lights and reverse lights fail, confirmation and output of reverse light abnormality is prioritized. The technical solution of this embodiment can generate and feedback the diagnosis results quickly and orderly when abnormalities occur simultaneously, ensuring the effectiveness of abnormal judgment of taillights.

[0085] The method of the embodiment of the present application further implements the diagnosis of the brake light. The working status of the brake light is confirmed by identifying the working current of the brake light. At the same time, the brake light satisfies N-1=0, that is, if any LED light of the brake light is abnormal, the entire brake light will be extinguished. Therefore, the failure of the brake light can be judged based on the working current range of the brake light.
