DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0095] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0096] An embodiment of the present invention provides a car seat control method, which can be applied to a vehicle controller. The method can determine the current state of the occupant based on the first seat state and the first door state collected in real time; then determine the target position corresponding to the car seat based on the to-be-identified data corresponding to the current state of the occupant, so that the target position of the car seat is adapted to the current state of its occupant, and control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism to work according to the target position, so that the armrest height and / or the seat position match the current state of the occupant, meet the actual needs of the occupant, and ensure their comfort and convenience.

[0097] As an example, the vehicle-mounted controller can be an existing controller in the car, or it can be a dedicated controller separately set on the car seat. The dedicated controller can be connected to the existing controller in the car to determine the target position of the car seat based on the first seat state, the first door state and the data to be identified forwarded by the existing controller, thereby controlling the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism of the car seat.

[0098] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle seat control method, such as Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle seat control method includes the following steps performed by the vehicle controller:

[0099] S1: determining a current state of an occupant according to a first seat state and a first door state;

[0100] S2: Obtain the data to be identified corresponding to the current state of the occupant;

[0101] S3: Determine the target position corresponding to the car seat according to the data to be identified, and control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism to operate according to the target position.

[0102] The first seat state is the seat state determined at the current moment. As an example, the first seat state can be any one of an occupied state and an unoccupied state. The occupied state here means that there is a passenger sitting on the car seat at the current moment, specifically sitting on the seat, so that the seat sensor set on the seat can detect a signal of someone sitting; correspondingly, the unoccupied state means that there is no passenger sitting on the car seat at the current moment, so that the seat sensor cannot detect a signal of someone sitting.

[0103] The first door state is a door state determined at the current moment. As an example, the first door state may be any one of an open state and a closed state.

[0104] The current state of the passenger is the state of the passenger at the current moment determined according to the state of the first seat and the state of the first door. As an example, the current state of the passenger can be any one of the state of not getting on the bus, the state of waiting to get on the bus, and the state of having ridden. The state of not getting on the bus refers to the state in which the passenger has not gotten on the bus and is not ready to get on the bus at the current moment. The state of waiting to get on the bus refers to the state in which the passenger has not gotten on the bus at the current moment but is ready to get on the bus. The state of having ridden refers to the state in which the passenger has gotten on the bus and is riding at the current moment.

[0105] As an example, in step S1, the onboard controller can obtain the first seat state and the first door state corresponding to the current moment, and specifically can obtain the first seat state and the first door state through the bus, or obtain the first seat state and the first door state respectively through the sensors connected thereto, and then, based on the combination of the first seat state and the first door state, comprehensively evaluate whether the occupant has boarded the vehicle, and if not, evaluate whether he is ready to board the vehicle, and determine the current state of the occupant. In this example, based on the first seat state and the first door state collected in real time, the objectivity and real-time nature of determining the current state of the occupant is guaranteed.

[0106] The data to be identified refers to the data collected after the current state of the occupant is determined and used to control the operation of the car seat.

[0107] As an example, in step S2, after determining the current state of the occupant, the onboard controller needs to further obtain the data to be identified corresponding to the current state of the occupant. The data to be identified can be understood as the input parameters required to control the operation of the car seat under the current state of the occupant, that is, the data to be collected to determine the target position of the car seat. In this example, the data to be identified corresponding to the current state of the occupant is obtained to ensure the compatibility of the data to be identified with the current state of the occupant, which helps to ensure that the target position corresponding to the car seat determined based on the data to be identified can meet the actual needs of the occupant, so as to improve comfort and convenience.

[0108] The target position of the car seat refers to the position to which the car seat needs to be controlled for adjustment. As an example, the target position of the car seat may include an armrest target position and / or a seat target position. The armrest target position here refers to the position to which the armrest needs to be controlled to move. The seat target position refers to the position to which the seat needs to be controlled to move, specifically the position to which the position adjustment mechanism needs to be controlled to drive the seat to move.

[0109] As an example, in step S3, after the vehicle-mounted controller collects the data to be identified corresponding to the current state of the occupant, it needs to analyze the collected data to be identified in combination with the current state of the occupant, and determine the target position corresponding to the car seat by analysis, which target position is the armrest target position and / or the seat target position; then, the vehicle-mounted controller can control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to work based on the armrest target position, and / or control the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the seat target position.

[0110] In this embodiment, the current state of the occupant is first determined based on the first seat state and the first door state to ensure the objectivity and real-time nature of the determination of the current state of the occupant; the target position corresponding to the car seat is determined according to the data to be identified corresponding to the current state of the occupant, so that the target position of the car seat matches the current state of its occupant; the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to operate according to the target position, so that the target position of the car seat matches the current state of the occupant, thereby meeting the actual needs of the occupant and ensuring their comfort and convenience.

[0111] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle seat control method, such as Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle seat control method includes the following steps performed by the vehicle controller:

[0112] S11: when the first seat state is an unoccupied state and the first door state is a closed state, determining that the current state of the occupant is a non-board state;

[0113] S12: Acquire first distance data and first camera data corresponding to the state of not getting on the vehicle;

[0114] S13: Determine the convenient getting-in position corresponding to the car seat according to the first distance data and the first camera data, and control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism to operate according to the convenient getting-in position.

[0115] Wherein, step S11 is a specific implementation of step S1, step S22 is a specific implementation of step S2, and step S13 is a specific implementation of step S3.

[0116] As an example, in step S11, the vehicle-mounted controller can obtain the first seat state and the first door state corresponding to the current moment. When the first seat state is unoccupied and the first door state is closed, it can be determined that the seat in the vehicle is unoccupied and the door is closed at the current moment, indicating that the occupant has not yet boarded the vehicle and is not ready to board the vehicle (such as opening the door). Therefore, it can be determined that the occupant's current state is not in the vehicle.

[0117] The first distance data is the distance data collected after the current state of the occupant is determined, specifically the distance data between the vehicle and the occupant. The first video data is the video data collected after the current state of the occupant is determined, specifically the video data collected by the camera in real time.

[0118] As an example, in step S12, when the on-board controller determines that the occupant's current state is not on the vehicle, it needs to collect first distance data and first camera data for evaluating whether the occupant is ready to get on the vehicle, so as to evaluate whether the occupant is ready to get on the vehicle based on the first distance data and the first camera data, so as to make adaptive adjustments.

[0119] The convenient position for getting on the vehicle refers to a position where the vehicle seat needs to be adjusted to facilitate passengers getting on the vehicle. As an example, the convenient position for getting on the vehicle includes an armrest convenient position and / or a seat convenient position. The armrest convenient position here is a position where the armrest needs to be controlled to move to facilitate getting on and off the vehicle, and the seat convenient position here is a position where the position adjustment mechanism needs to be controlled to drive the seat as a whole to move to facilitate getting on and off the vehicle.

[0120] As an example, in step S13, after the on-board controller collects the first distance data and the first camera data corresponding to the non-boarding state, it needs to evaluate whether the occupant is ready to get on the vehicle based on the first distance data and the first camera data. When analyzing and determining that the occupant is ready to get on the vehicle, it is necessary to further determine the convenient position for getting on the vehicle based on the first distance data and the first camera data, that is, determine the armrest convenience position and / or the seat convenience position; then, the on-board controller can control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to operate based on the armrest convenience position to adjust the armrest height to the armrest convenience position, and / or control the position adjustment mechanism to operate based on the seat convenience position to control the overall movement of the seat to the seat convenience position, thereby facilitating the occupant to get on the vehicle and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the occupant during the boarding process.

[0121] In the present embodiment, when the first seat state is an unoccupied state and the first door state is a closed state, it is determined that the current state of the occupant is a non-boarding state, and a convenient boarding position is determined based on the first distance data and the first camera data corresponding to the non-boarding state. The armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to operate based on the convenient boarding position, so that the armrest height and / or the seat position are convenient for the occupant to board the vehicle, thereby meeting the occupant's boarding needs and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the occupant's boarding process.

[0122] In one embodiment, step S13, determining the convenient boarding position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the first distance data and the first camera data, includes:

[0123] S131: judging whether the boarding preparation condition is met according to the first distance data and the first camera data;

[0124] S132: If the conditions for getting on the vehicle are met, the vehicle seat is controlled to enter a preparation state, and the door opening angle and the current position of the seat are obtained;

[0125] S133: Determine a convenient entry position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the door opening angle and the current position of the seat.

[0126] Among them, the boarding preparation condition is a pre-set condition for evaluating whether the occupant is ready to board the vehicle.

[0127] As an example, in step S131, after collecting the first distance data and the first camera data corresponding to the non-boarding state, the on-board controller needs to determine whether the boarding preparation conditions are met based on the first distance data and the first camera data, so as to evaluate whether the occupants are ready to board the vehicle in order to make adaptive adjustments.

[0128] The door opening angle refers to the angle at which the passenger opens the door, that is, the door opening angle data recognized by the door hinge sensor when the passenger opens the door. The current seat position refers to the current position of the car seat collected by the onboard controller in real time in the current state, which can be specifically the front and rear position of the seat recognized by the onboard controller through the Hall signal number of the front and rear slide motor of the seat.

[0129] As an example, in step S132, if the first distance data and the first camera data corresponding to the state of not getting on the vehicle meet the conditions for the passengers to prepare to get on the vehicle, the onboard controller determines the convenient position for getting on the vehicle based on the first distance data and the first camera data, and the onboard controller controls the car seat to enter the preparation state, and collects the door opening angle and the current position of the seat, so as to subsequently determine the convenient position for getting on the vehicle based on the door opening angle and the current position of the seat.

[0130] As an example, in step S133, after collecting the door opening angle and the current position of the seat, the on-board controller needs to determine the convenient boarding position corresponding to the car seat for the occupant to get on the car based on the door opening angle and the current position of the seat, where the convenient boarding position includes the armrest convenience position and / or the seat convenience position; then, the on-board controller can control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to work based on the armrest convenience position to adjust the armrest height to the armrest convenience position, and / or control the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the seat convenience position to control the overall movement of the seat to the seat convenience position, thereby facilitating the occupant to get on the car and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the boarding process.

[0131] In this embodiment, based on the first distance data and the first camera data, it is determined whether the conditions for preparing to get on the vehicle are met. If the conditions for preparing to get on the vehicle are met, the car seat is controlled to enter a preparatory working state, and the convenient getting-on position corresponding to the car seat is determined by obtaining the door opening angle and the current position of the seat, so that the armrest height and / or seat position corresponding to the convenient getting-on position are convenient for passengers to get on the vehicle, thereby meeting the passengers' needs for getting on the vehicle and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the passengers during the getting-on process.

[0132] In one embodiment, step S131, judging whether the boarding preparation condition is met according to the first distance data and the first camera data, includes:

[0133] S1311: If the first distance data is less than the first distance threshold, determine the current moving direction of the occupant according to the first camera data;

[0134] S1312: If the current movement direction is from front to back along the front-to-back direction of the vehicle body, determine the current position of the occupant according to the first camera data, and when the current position of the occupant reaches the front door handle position, determine that the boarding preparation condition is met;

[0135] S1313: If the current movement direction is from back to front along the front-rear direction of the vehicle body or from far to near along the direction facing the door, the current face angle of the occupant facing the rear door is determined based on the first camera data. When the current face angle is less than the first preset angle, it is determined that the conditions for preparing to get on the vehicle are met.

[0136] The first distance threshold refers to a preset distance threshold, specifically a distance threshold used to determine whether the passenger is ready to get on the vehicle. The passenger's current moving direction refers to the passenger's moving direction identified based on the first camera data.

[0137] As an example, in step S1311, the vehicle-mounted controller collects the first distance data and the first camera data corresponding to the non-boarding state, and compares the first distance data with the first distance threshold. If the first distance data is less than the first distance threshold, it is determined that the occupant has entered the distance range for preparing to get on the vehicle; then, based on the first camera data collected by the vehicle-mounted controller, the occupant's current movement direction is determined, and the occupant's current movement direction is further evaluated to determine whether the occupant currently meets the conditions for preparing to get on the vehicle, so as to make adaptive adjustments.

[0138] As an example, in step S1312, if the vehicle-mounted controller detects that the occupant's current movement direction is from front to back along the front and back direction of the vehicle body, it is necessary to further determine the occupant's current position based on the first camera data. If the first camera data determines that the occupant's current position is at the front door handle position, it is determined that the occupant is walking from front to back along the front and back direction of the vehicle body to the front door handle position, and it is very likely that the occupant is preparing to get on the vehicle. At this time, it is determined that the conditions for preparing to get on the vehicle are met.

[0139] The first preset angle refers to pre-set angle data, specifically a preset angle of the face facing the rear door.

[0140] As an example, in step S1313, if the on-board controller detects that the occupant's current movement direction is from back to front along the front-rear direction of the vehicle body, or that the occupant's current movement direction is from far to near facing the door, it is necessary to further determine the current facial angle of the occupant's face toward the rear door based on the first camera data, and compare the current facial angle with the first preset angle. If the current facial angle is less than the first preset angle, it is determined that the occupant is walking from back to front along the front-rear direction of the vehicle body or from far to near in the direction facing the door, and when the angle of the face toward the rear door is smaller, it is very likely that the occupant is preparing to get on the vehicle. At this time, it can be determined that the occupant meets the conditions for preparing to get on the vehicle. By determining the current facial angle of the occupant, it can be further judged whether the occupant is ready to get on the vehicle so that adaptive adjustments can be made.

[0141] In this embodiment, when the first distance data is less than the first distance threshold, the current movement direction of the occupant is determined according to the first camera data. If the current movement direction is from front to back along the front and rear direction of the vehicle body and reaches the front door handle position, it is determined that the conditions for getting on the vehicle are met; when the current movement direction is from back to front along the front and rear direction of the vehicle body or from far to near along the direction facing the door, and the current face angle of the occupant facing the rear door is less than the first preset angle, it is determined that the conditions for getting on the vehicle are met. By judging the conditions for getting on the vehicle, the car seat can be better adaptively adjusted to ensure the comfort and convenience of the occupant getting on the vehicle.

[0142] In one embodiment, step S133, determining the convenient entry position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the door opening angle and the current position of the seat, includes:

[0143] S1331: Get the current door type;

[0144] S1332: If the current door type is a sliding door type, determine a convenient boarding position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the current position of the seat;

[0145] S1333: If the current door type is not a sliding door type, determine the convenient getting-in position corresponding to the car seat according to the door opening angle and the current position of the seat.

[0146] The current door type refers to the door type of the vehicle, which may be any one of a sliding door type and a non-sliding door type. The sliding door type refers to a door type that can be opened horizontally to a maximum angle. The non-sliding door type refers to a door type that cannot be opened horizontally to a maximum angle.

[0147] As an example, in step S1331, after the vehicle controller collects the information that the occupant meets the conditions for getting on the vehicle, it needs to obtain the current door type so that it can subsequently determine the convenient getting-in position corresponding to the car seat based on the current door type, combined with the door opening angle and the current position of the seat.

[0148] As an example, in step S1332, when the current door type is a sliding door type, the on-board controller can determine that the door can be opened horizontally to the maximum angle, that is, the opening of the door will not be disturbed by the surrounding environment, that is, the door opening angle will not affect the convenient position for getting on the vehicle. Therefore, the on-board controller can determine the convenient position for getting on the vehicle according to the current position of the seat, that is, determine the armrest convenience position and / or the seat convenience position; then, the on-board controller can control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to operate based on the armrest convenience position to adjust the armrest height to the armrest convenience position, and / or control the position adjustment mechanism to operate based on the seat convenience position to control the overall movement of the seat to the seat convenience position, thereby facilitating the occupants to get on the vehicle and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the occupants during the boarding process.

[0149] As an example, in step S1333, when the current door type is not a sliding door type, the on-board controller can determine that the door opening mode is not a translation mode, and the door opening angle will be affected by the surrounding environment. At this time, the door opening angle will affect the convenient position for getting on the vehicle. Therefore, the on-board controller needs to collect the door opening angle and the current position of the seat, and determine the convenient position for getting on the vehicle according to the door opening angle and the current position of the seat, that is, determine the armrest convenience position and / or the seat convenience position; then, the on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to work based on the armrest convenience position to adjust the armrest height to the armrest convenience position, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the seat convenience position to control the overall movement of the seat to the seat convenience position, thereby facilitating the passengers to get on the vehicle and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the passengers during the boarding process.

[0150] In this embodiment, when the current door type is a sliding door type, the convenient boarding position corresponding to the car seat can be determined according to the current position of the seat; when the current door type is not a sliding door type, the convenient boarding position corresponding to the car seat is determined according to the door opening angle and the current position of the seat. In this example, the convenient boarding position corresponding to the car seat of different door types can be determined, and then the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism can be controlled to work, so that the armrest height and / or the seat position match the different door types, meet the boarding needs of the passengers, and ensure the comfort and convenience of the passengers in the boarding process.

[0151] In one embodiment, step 1332, determining a convenient entry position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the current position of the seat, includes:

[0152] S13321: If the current seat position is before the first seat calibration position, determine the lowest position of the armrest and / or the second seat calibration position as the convenient boarding position corresponding to the vehicle seat;

[0153] S13322: If the current seat position is after the first seat calibration position, determine the current seat position as a convenient boarding position corresponding to the vehicle seat;

[0154] The second seat calibration position is a position after the first seat calibration position.

[0155] The first seat calibration position refers to the first pre-set front and rear position of the seat, and the specific position can be obtained according to data simulation or calibrated according to the vehicle model. The second seat calibration position is the second pre-set front and rear position of the seat, specifically, a position set after the first seat calibration position along the front and rear direction of the vehicle body.

[0156] As an example, in step S13321, when the on-board controller recognizes that the current position of the seat is before the first seat calibration position, it determines that the current position of the seat will affect the occupants getting on the vehicle. At this time, the lowest position of the armrest and / or the second seat calibration position can be determined as the convenient getting-in position corresponding to the car seat. According to the determined convenient getting-in position, the on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to operate based on the armrest convenience position to adjust the armrest height to the lowest position of the armrest, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to operate based on the seat convenience position to move the car seat as a whole to the second seat calibration position, thereby facilitating the occupants getting on the vehicle and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the getting-in process.

[0157] As an example, in step S13322, if the on-board controller recognizes that the current position of the seat is after the first seat calibration position, it means that the current position of the seat will not affect the passengers getting on the vehicle, and the current position of the seat is determined to be the convenient position for getting on the vehicle corresponding to the car seat. According to the determined convenient position for getting on the vehicle, the armrest is controlled to keep the current position of the armrest unchanged, and the overall position of the seat is controlled to keep the current position of the seat unchanged, that is, there is no need to operate the armrest and / or position adjustment mechanism, thereby facilitating the passengers getting on the vehicle and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the getting on vehicle process.

[0158] In this embodiment, if the current position of the seat is before the first seat calibration position, the lowest position of the armrest and / or the second seat calibration position are determined as the convenient getting-in position corresponding to the car seat; if the current position of the seat is after the first seat calibration position, the current position of the seat is determined as the convenient getting-in position corresponding to the car seat, and the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled according to the corresponding convenient getting-in position, so that the armrest height and / or seat position meet the needs of passengers preparing to get on a sliding door type vehicle, thereby ensuring the comfort and convenience of the passengers during the getting-in process.

[0159] In one embodiment, step S1333, determining the convenient entry position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the door opening angle and the current position of the seat, includes:

[0160] S13331: Perform obstacle detection on a preset range of the vehicle and obtain obstacle detection results;

[0161] S13332: If the obstacle detection result is that there is no obstacle, and the current seat position is before the first seat calibration position, the lowest position of the armrest and / or the second seat calibration position are determined as the convenient boarding position corresponding to the car seat;

[0162] S13333: If the obstacle detection result is that there is an obstacle and the door opening angle is less than the second preset angle, the lowest position of the armrest and the rearmost position of the seat are determined as the convenient boarding position corresponding to the car seat;

[0163] S13334: If the obstacle detection result is that there is an obstacle, the door opening angle is not less than the second preset angle, and the current seat position is before the first seat calibration position, the lowest position of the armrest and / or the second seat calibration position is determined as the convenient boarding position corresponding to the car seat;

[0164] S13335: If the obstacle detection result shows that there is an obstacle, the door opening angle is not less than the second preset angle, and the current position of the seat is after the first seat calibration position, the current position of the armrest and the current position of the seat are determined as the convenient getting-in position corresponding to the car seat.

[0165] The vehicle preset range is a preset range determined with the vehicle as the center, especially with the vehicle door as the center.

[0166] As an example, in step S13331, after the vehicle controller detects that the current door type is a non-sliding door type, it needs to perform obstacle detection on the preset range of the vehicle to obtain the obstacle detection result of whether there is an obstacle within the preset range of the vehicle, so as to dynamically adjust its convenient boarding position based on the obstacle detection result.

[0167] The lowest position of the armrest refers to the lowest point of the armrest when it is raised or lowered. The last position of the seat refers to the last position of the seat when it is moved forward or backward.

[0168] As an example, in step S13332, when the obstacle detection result is that there is no obstacle, and the current position of the seat is collected before the first seat calibration position, the on-board controller can determine that the current position of the armrest and the current position of the seat will affect the passengers getting on the car and the degree of influence is small. Therefore, the lowest position of the armrest and / or the second seat calibration position can be determined as the convenient position for getting on the car corresponding to the car seat. According to the determined convenient position for getting on the car. Then, the on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to work based on the convenient position of the armrest to adjust the armrest height to the lowest position of the armrest, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the convenient position of the seat to control the overall movement of the car seat to the second seat calibration position, so as to facilitate the passengers to get on the car and ensure the comfort and convenience of the passengers in the process of getting on the car.

[0169] The second preset angle refers to pre-set angle data, specifically a preset angle value when the door is opened.

[0170] As an example, in step S13333, when the obstacle detection result is that there is an obstacle and the door opening angle is less than the second preset angle, the onboard controller can determine that the current position of the armrest and the current position of the seat will affect the passengers' boarding and the degree of influence is relatively large. Therefore, the lowest position of the armrest and the last position of the seat can be determined as the convenient boarding position corresponding to the car seat. According to the determined convenient boarding position. Then, the onboard controller can control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to work based on the convenient position of the armrest to adjust the armrest height to the lowest position of the armrest, and / or control the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the convenient position of the seat to control the overall movement of the car seat to the last position, so as to facilitate the passengers to board the car and ensure the comfort and convenience of the boarding process.

[0171] As an example, in step S13334, when the obstacle detection result is that there is an obstacle, the door opening angle is not less than the second preset angle, and the current position of the seat is before the first seat calibration position, the on-board controller can determine that the current position of the armrest and the current position of the seat will affect the passengers getting on the vehicle and the degree of influence is small. Therefore, the lowest position of the armrest and / or the second seat calibration position can be determined as the convenient position for getting on the vehicle corresponding to the car seat. The on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to work based on the convenient position of the armrest to adjust the armrest height to the lowest position of the armrest, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the convenient position of the seat to control the overall movement of the car seat to the second seat calibration position, so as to facilitate the passengers to get on the vehicle and ensure the comfort and convenience of the passengers in the process of getting on the vehicle. The second seat calibration position here refers to the position between the first seat calibration position and the last position of the seat.

[0172] As an example, in step S13335, when the obstacle detection result is that there is an obstacle, the door opening angle is not less than the second preset angle, and the current position of the seat is after the first seat calibration position, the on-board controller can determine that the current position of the armrest and the current position of the seat will not affect the occupants getting on the vehicle. At this time, the current position of the armrest and the current position of the seat are determined as the convenient getting-on position corresponding to the car seat. The on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to operate based on the convenient position of the armrest to keep the current position of the armrest unchanged, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to operate based on the convenient position of the seat to keep the current position of the seat unchanged, thereby facilitating the occupants getting on the vehicle and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the occupants getting on the vehicle.

[0173] In this embodiment, based on the obstacle detection results, the door opening angle and the current position of the seat, a comprehensive assessment is made as to whether there are objective conditions that affect the passengers' boarding. If so, it is necessary to determine the corresponding armrest target position and / or seat target position according to different situations, and control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism to make the armrest height and / or seat position meet the passengers' boarding needs, thereby ensuring the comfort and convenience of the passengers' boarding process.

[0174] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle seat control method, such as Figure 3 As shown, the vehicle seat control method includes the following steps performed by the vehicle controller:

[0175] S21: when the first seat state is an unoccupied state and the first door state is an open state, determining that the current state of the occupant is a waiting-to-get-on state;

[0176] S22: Acquire a second seat state corresponding to the waiting-to-get-in state;

[0177] S23: If the second seat state is an occupied state, a corresponding comfortable sitting position of the vehicle seat is determined according to the occupant identification data, and based on the comfortable sitting position, the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism is controlled to operate;

[0178] S24: If the second seat state is unoccupied, determine the convenient object-taking position corresponding to the car seat according to the door control command and the current vehicle speed, and control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism to operate based on the convenient object-taking position.

[0179] Among them, step S21 is a specific implementation of step S1, step S22 is a specific implementation of step S2, and step S23 and step S24 are specific implementations of step S3.

[0180] As an example, in step S21, the vehicle-mounted controller can obtain the first seat state and the first door state corresponding to the current moment. When the first seat state is unoccupied and the first door state is open, it can be determined that the seat in the vehicle is unoccupied and the door is open at the current moment, indicating that the occupant is ready to get on the vehicle. Therefore, it can be determined that the occupant's current state is waiting to get on the vehicle.

[0181] The second seat state refers to the seat state determined at the current moment. As an example, the second seat state can be either an occupied state or an unoccupied state. The occupied state here means that there is a passenger sitting on the car seat at the current moment, specifically sitting on the seat, so that the seat sensor set on the seat can detect the corresponding signal; correspondingly, the unoccupied state means that there is no passenger sitting on the car seat at the current moment, so that the seat sensor cannot detect the corresponding signal.

[0182] As an example, in step S22, when the onboard controller determines that the occupant's current state is the waiting-to-get-on state, it needs to collect the second seat state corresponding to the waiting-to-get-on state, so as to evaluate whether the occupant is ready to get on based on the second seat state, so as to make adaptive adjustments.

[0183] As an example, in step S23, the on-board controller determines that someone is currently sitting in the car seat after detecting that the second seat state is occupied, and collects occupant identification data through the in-car detection equipment. For example, the occupant video data can be collected through the in-car camera, and the occupant video data is determined as the occupant identification data; then, the occupant identification data is identified. For example, the occupant identification data can be identified by but not limited to face recognition technology to obtain the occupant identity information; then, the system database is queried according to the identified occupant identity information to obtain the sitting comfort position corresponding to the occupant identity information; then, the on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to work based on the matched sitting comfort position to adjust the armrest height to a comfortable position suitable for the occupant to sit, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the matched sitting comfort position to control the overall movement of the car seat to a comfortable position suitable for the occupant to sit, thereby ensuring the comfort and convenience of the occupant to sit.

[0184] The door control instruction refers to the door state instruction determined at the current moment. As an example, the door control instruction can be any one of an open door instruction and a close door instruction. The current vehicle speed refers to the vehicle speed determined at the current moment. As an example, the current vehicle speed can be any one of the current vehicle speed being zero and the current vehicle speed being non-zero.

[0185] As an example, in step S24, the on-board controller detects that the second seat state is unoccupied and determines that the car seat is currently unoccupied. It can determine the convenient position for picking up items corresponding to the car seat based on the door control command received at the current moment and the current vehicle speed; then, the on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to adjust the armrest height to a convenient position suitable for passengers to pick up items, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the convenient position for picking up items, so as to control the overall movement of the car seat to a convenient position suitable for passengers to pick up items, thereby making it convenient for passengers to pick up items and ensuring the comfort and convenience of passengers.

[0186] In this embodiment, when the first seat state is unoccupied and the first door state is open, the current state of the occupant is determined to be the waiting state, and the second seat state corresponding to the waiting state is the occupied state, then the corresponding comfortable sitting position of the car seat is determined according to the occupant identification data, and the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism is controlled to work; if the second seat state is unoccupied, the corresponding convenient position for picking up items is determined according to the door control command and the current vehicle speed. According to the comfortable sitting position or the convenient position for picking up items, the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism is controlled to work, so that the armrest height and / or the seat position match the waiting state, meet the occupant's boarding needs, and ensure the comfort and convenience of the occupant's boarding process.

[0187] In one embodiment, step S24, determining a convenient location for picking up items corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the door control command and the current vehicle speed, includes:

[0188] S241: If the current vehicle speed is zero, the current position of the armrest and the current position of the seat are determined as the convenient position for picking up items corresponding to the vehicle seat;

[0189] S242: If the current vehicle speed is not zero, and the door control command is a door closing command, the last best use position of the armrest is determined as the convenient position for picking up objects corresponding to the car seat.

[0190] Among them, the door control command and the current vehicle speed are used to determine the convenient picking position corresponding to the car seat in different picking situations.

[0191] As an example, in step S241, if the current vehicle speed is zero, it can be determined that the occupant is most likely still picking up objects at the current moment, and the current position of the armrest and the current position of the seat can be determined as convenient positions for picking up objects corresponding to the car seat; then, the on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to work based on the convenient position for picking up objects, controls the armrest to maintain the current position unchanged, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the convenient position for picking up objects, controls the seat to maintain the current position unchanged, so that the occupant can pick up objects conveniently, thereby ensuring the comfort and convenience of the occupant in picking up objects.

[0192] As an example, in step S242, if the on-board controller detects that the current door control instruction is a door closing instruction, and the current vehicle speed is not zero, it can be determined that the occupant has most likely finished taking the object at the current moment, and the vehicle is restarted. At this time, the armrest's last best use position can be set as the convenient position for taking objects corresponding to the car seat; then, the on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to operate based on the convenient position for taking objects, and controls the armrest to reset to the last best use position, so as to facilitate the occupant to take objects next time, and ensure the comfort and convenience of the occupant in taking objects.

[0193] In this embodiment, if the current vehicle speed is zero, the current position of the armrest and the current position of the seat are determined as the convenient position for picking up items corresponding to the car seat; if the door control command is a door closing command and the current vehicle speed is not zero, the last best use position of the armrest is determined as the convenient position for picking up items corresponding to the car seat. The armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to work according to the convenient position for picking up items corresponding to the car seat to meet the passenger's picking up needs and ensure the comfort and convenience of the passenger in the process of picking up items.

[0194] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle seat control method, such as Figure 4 As shown, the vehicle seat control method includes the following steps performed by the vehicle controller:

[0195] S31: when the first seat state is an occupied state and the first door state is a closed state, determining that the current state of the occupant is an occupied state;

[0196] S32: Obtaining a target control signal corresponding to the riding state;

[0197] S33: If the target control signal is an exit control signal, the convenient exit position corresponding to the vehicle seat is determined according to the occupant identification data, and based on the convenient exit position, the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to operate.

[0198] Among them, step S31 is a specific implementation of step S1, step S32 is a specific implementation of step S2, and step S33 is a specific implementation of step S3.

[0199] As an example, in step S31, the vehicle-mounted controller can obtain the first seat state and the first door state corresponding to the current moment. When the first seat state is the sitting state and the first door state is the closed state, it can be determined that the seat in the vehicle is currently occupied and the door is closed, indicating that the occupant is already seated at this moment. Therefore, it can be determined that the occupant's current state is the seated state.

[0200] The target control signal refers to a signal sent by the passenger at the current moment when the passenger is already in the seat. As an example, the target control signal can be a signal for adjusting the seat armrest or seat position of the car, or a signal for getting off the car. The target control signal is used to evaluate whether the passenger is ready to adjust the car seat or get off the car when already in the seat.

[0201] As an example, in step S32, if the on-board controller recognizes that the target control signal is an getting-off signal, the occupant identification data is collected through the in-vehicle detection equipment. For example, the occupant video data can be collected through the in-vehicle camera, and the occupant video data is determined as the occupant identification data; then, the occupant identification data is identified. For example, the occupant identification data can be identified by but not limited to face recognition technology to determine the occupant identity information; then, the system database is queried according to the identified occupant identity information, and matched to the convenient getting-off position corresponding to the occupant in the system database; then, the on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to adjust the armrest height to a convenient position suitable for the occupant to get off the vehicle based on the matched convenient getting-off position, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to control the overall movement of the car seat to a convenient position suitable for the occupant to get off the vehicle based on the matched convenient getting-off position, thereby making it convenient for the occupant to get off the vehicle and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the occupant to get off the vehicle.

[0202] In this embodiment, when the first seat state is an occupied state and the first door state is a closed state, it is determined that the occupant's current state is a seated state. If the acquired target control signal is an getting-off control signal, the convenient getting-off position corresponding to the car seat is determined based on the occupant identification data. Based on the convenient getting-off position, the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to operate so that the armrest height and / or the seat position match the seated state, thereby meeting the occupant's riding needs and ensuring the occupant's comfort and convenience when riding.

[0203] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle seat control method, such as Figure 5 As shown, the vehicle seat control method includes the following steps performed by the vehicle controller:

[0204] S41: when the first seat state is an occupied state and the first door state is a closed state, determining that the current state of the occupant is an occupied state;

[0205] S42: Acquire a second seat state corresponding to the occupied state;

[0206] S43: If the second seat state is an unoccupied state, the convenient getting-off position corresponding to the car seat is determined according to the occupant identification data, and based on the convenient getting-off position, the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to operate.

[0207] Among them, step S41 is a specific implementation of step S1, step S42 is a specific implementation of step S2, and step S43 is a specific implementation of step S3.

[0208] As an example, step S41 is the same as the above step S31, and to avoid repetition, they are not described here one by one.

[0209] The second seat state is used to evaluate whether the occupant is ready to get off the vehicle at the current moment.

[0210] As an example, in step S42, when the onboard controller determines that the occupant's current state is a seated state, it needs to collect the second seat state corresponding to the seated state, so as to evaluate whether the occupant is ready to get off the vehicle based on the second seat state, so as to make adaptive adjustments.

[0211] As an example, in step S43, the on-board controller, upon detecting that the second seat is unoccupied, determines that the occupant is ready to get off the vehicle at the current moment, and collects occupant identification data through the in-vehicle detection equipment. For example, the occupant video data can be collected through the in-vehicle camera, and the occupant video data is determined as the occupant identification data; then, the occupant identification data is identified. For example, the occupant identification data can be identified by but not limited to face recognition technology to obtain occupant identification information; then, the system database is queried based on the identified occupant identity information to determine the convenient getting off position corresponding to the car seat; then, the on-board controller controls the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 to adjust the armrest height to a convenient position suitable for the occupant to get off the vehicle based on the convenient getting off position, and / or controls the position adjustment mechanism to work based on the convenient getting off position to control the overall movement of the car seat to a convenient position suitable for the occupant to get off the vehicle, thereby making it convenient for the occupant to get off the vehicle and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the occupant to get off the vehicle.

[0212] In this embodiment, when the first seat state is occupied and the first door state is closed, it is determined that the current state of the occupant is occupied. If the second seat state is unoccupied, the convenient position for getting off the vehicle corresponding to the vehicle seat is determined based on the occupant identification data, and based on the convenient position for getting off, the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to work, so that the armrest height and / or the seat position match the current moment, meet the occupant's needs for getting off, and ensure the comfort and convenience of the occupant's getting off process.

[0213] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle seat control method, such as Figure 6 As shown, the vehicle seat control method includes the following steps performed by the vehicle controller:

[0214] S51: when the first seat state is an occupied state and the first door state is a closed state, determining that the current state of the occupant is an occupied state;

[0215] S52: Acquiring passenger identification data corresponding to the seated state;

[0216] S53: Determine the posture comfort position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the occupant identification data, and control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism to operate based on the posture comfort position.

[0217] Among them, step S51 is a specific implementation of step S1, step S52 is a specific implementation of step S2, and step S53 is a specific implementation of step S3.

[0218] As an example, step S51 is the same as the above step S31, and to avoid repetition, they are not described here one by one.

[0219] As an example, in step S52, when the onboard controller determines that the current state of the occupant is the seated state, the in-vehicle detection device identifies the occupant and identifies the occupant identity information. In this example, the onboard controller collects occupant identification data through the in-vehicle detection device, for example, the occupant camera data can be collected through the in-vehicle camera, and the occupant camera data is determined as the occupant identification data; then, the occupant identification data is identified, for example, the occupant identification data can be identified by but not limited to face recognition technology to obtain occupant identification information.

[0220] As an example, in step S53, the vehicle controller queries the system database based on the identified occupant identity information, matches the posture comfort position corresponding to the occupant at the current moment in the system database, thereby determining the posture comfort position corresponding to the car seat, and subsequently determines the posture comfort position based on the collected occupant body information.

[0221] In the present embodiment, when the first seat state is an occupied state and the first door state is a closed state, it is determined that the current state of the occupant is a seated state, and the posture comfort position corresponding to the car seat is determined based on the occupant identification data corresponding to the seated state. Based on the posture comfort position, the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to work so that the armrest height and / or the seat position match the seated state, satisfying the occupant's riding needs and ensuring the comfort and convenience of the occupant when riding.

[0222] In one embodiment, step S53, determining the posture comfort position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the occupant identification data, includes:

[0223] S531: determining a first armrest comfort position according to a headrest height change value of the occupant's headrest before and after the backrest is adjusted;

[0224] S532: determining a comfortable position of the second armrest according to a change value of the eye position of the occupant before and after the seat is adjusted;

[0225] S533: Determine a posture comfort position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the first armrest comfort position and / or the second armrest comfort position.

[0226] The first armrest comfort position refers to the comfortable position suitable for the occupant's posture determined based on the change in the height of the occupant's headrest as the backrest angle is adjusted when the vehicle is currently in a sitting state.

[0227] The second armrest comfort position refers to the comfortable position suitable for the occupant's posture determined based on the change in the occupant's eye position as the seat angle is adjusted when the occupant is currently in the sitting state.

[0228] As an example, in step S531, when the pressure value recognized by the armrest pressure sensor at the current moment is not within the system preset range, and the on-board controller recognizes that the occupant uses the backrest adjustment, the on-board controller collects the number of Hall signals of the backrest drive motor before and after the backrest adjustment, and then queries the system database based on the occupant identity information and the headrest height change value determined by the occupant identification data collected by the in-vehicle camera or radar, and determines the armrest comfort position in the system database that matches the occupant identity information and the headrest height change value as the first armrest comfort position.

[0229] As an example, in step S532, when the pressure value recognized by the armrest pressure sensor at the current moment is not within the system preset range and the on-board controller recognizes that the occupant uses the seat adjustment, the on-board controller collects the number of Hall signals of the seat drive motor before and after the seat adjustment, and then queries the system database based on the occupant identity information and the eye position change value determined by the occupant identification data collected by the in-vehicle camera or radar, and determines the armrest comfort position in the system database that matches the occupant identity information and the eye position change value as the second armrest comfort position.

[0230] As an example, in step S533, the pressure value recognized by the armrest pressure sensor at the current moment is not within the system preset range. When the on-board controller recognizes that the occupant uses the backrest to adjust, the first armrest comfort position can be determined as the posture comfort position corresponding to the car seat; when the on-board controller recognizes that the occupant uses the seat to adjust, the second armrest comfort position can be determined as the posture comfort position corresponding to the car seat; when it is recognized that the occupant uses the backrest and seat to adjust at the same time, the posture comfort position corresponding to the car seat can be determined based on the first armrest comfort position and the second armrest comfort position. For example, the first armrest comfort position and the second armrest comfort position can be averaged, and the average of the two can be determined as the armrest height that requires armrest adjustment, and it can be determined as the posture comfort position corresponding to the car seat, so that the occupant can ride comfortably and ensure the comfort and convenience of the occupant.

[0231] In this embodiment, according to the change value of the headrest height of the occupant before and after the backrest is adjusted, or according to the change value of the eye position of the occupant before and after the seat is adjusted, the system database is matched to determine the posture comfort position as the first armrest comfort position and / or the second armrest comfort position. Based on the posture comfort position, the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to work so that the armrest height and / or the seat position match the current state, meet the occupant's riding needs, and ensure the comfort and convenience of the occupant when riding.

[0232] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle seat control method, such as Figure 7 As shown, the vehicle seat control method includes the following steps performed by the vehicle controller:

[0233] S61: when the first seat state is an occupied state and the first door state is a closed state, determining that the current state of the occupant is an occupied state;

[0234] S62: Acquire a posture adjustment signal corresponding to the sitting state;

[0235] S63: Determine the posture comfort position corresponding to the vehicle seat according to the posture adjustment signal, and control the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism to operate based on the posture comfort position.

[0236] Among them, step S61 is a specific implementation of step S1, step S62 is a specific implementation of step S2, and step S63 is a specific implementation of step S3.

[0237] As an example, step S61 is the same as the above step S31, and will not be described here one by one to avoid repetition.

[0238] As an example, in step S62, when the vehicle controller determines that the current state of the occupant is the seated state, it collects the posture adjustment signal to evaluate whether the car seat has reached a comfortable posture position according to the posture adjustment signal so as to make adaptive adjustments.

[0239] As an example, in step S63, the vehicle controller matches the posture comfort position corresponding to the current occupant in the system database according to the received posture adjustment signal, thereby determining the posture comfort position corresponding to the car seat, so as to subsequently determine its posture comfort position according to the posture adjustment signal.

[0240] In this embodiment, when the first seat state is a state where someone is sitting and the first door state is a closed state, it is determined that the current state of the occupant is a state where the occupant has sat, and the posture comfort position corresponding to the vehicle seat is determined according to the posture adjustment signal corresponding to the state where the occupant has sat, and based on the posture comfort position, the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism are controlled to work, so that the armrest height and / or the seat position match the state where the occupant has sat, and the occupant's riding needs are met, and the comfort and convenience of the occupant when riding is ensured.

[0241] In one embodiment, the data to be identified includes occupant identification data;

[0242] like Figure 8 As shown, step S3, i.e., determining the target position corresponding to the car seat according to the data to be identified, includes:

[0243] S71: Obtaining passenger identity information according to passenger identification data;

[0244] S72: querying the system database according to the occupant identity information, obtaining the target position corresponding to the occupant identity information, and determining it as the target position corresponding to the car seat.

[0245] The passenger identity information refers to the passenger identity information recognized by the vehicle controller at the current moment.

[0246] As an example, in step S71, the vehicle-mounted controller collects occupant identification data through the in-vehicle detection equipment. For example, the occupant video data can be collected through the in-vehicle camera, and the occupant video data is determined as the occupant identification data; then, the occupant identification data is identified. For example, the occupant identification data can be identified by but not limited to face recognition technology to obtain occupant identification information.

[0247] As an example, in step S72, the vehicle controller queries the system database based on the collected occupant identity information to obtain the armrest comfort position and / or seat comfort position corresponding to the occupant identity information, and then determines the target position corresponding to the car seat based on the collected occupant identity information.

[0248] In this embodiment, the occupant identity information is obtained based on the occupant identification data, and the system database is queried based on the occupant identity information to obtain the armrest comfort position and / or seat comfort position corresponding to the occupant identity information, thereby controlling the operation of the armrest adjustment mechanism 2 and / or the position adjustment mechanism to ensure the comfort and convenience of the occupant when riding or getting off the vehicle.
