[0002] During the ride, the comfort of the car's interior temperature has an important impact on the passengers' travel experience. With the continuous development of vehicle intelligence and networking, passengers' demand for vehicle intelligence has gradually expanded to all aspects, and the traditional integrated in-car temperature control can no longer meet the personalized needs of passengers.

[0003] In order to improve the comfort of passengers and provide them with a more personalized riding experience, a method of zoned temperature control is disclosed in the related art, which provides a separate temperature adjustment device for each seat, so that each passenger can adjust the temperature in the car according to their own needs.

[0004] However, due to the limited adjustment capacity and accuracy of the vehicle interior space and the vehicle air conditioning system for zone temperature control, it is impossible to substantially meet the temperature requirements of all passengers at the same time.

[0032] 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.

[0033] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the present application. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0034] The zoned temperature control in the vehicle refers to the independent control of the temperature in different areas of the vehicle. In order to meet the personalized needs of passengers for the temperature in the vehicle, some manufacturers choose to provide a separate temperature control device for each seat, allowing each passenger to adjust the temperature in the vehicle according to their own needs.

[0035] However, due to the limited space inside the vehicle and the limited computing resources allocated to the vehicle's air-conditioning system, the vehicle is unable to complete very sophisticated zone temperature control operations. Therefore, in the above-mentioned method that allows each passenger to adjust the temperature in the car according to their own needs, some invalid zone temperature control requests will be generated, that is, the passenger has implemented the action of adjusting the temperature, but the passenger's personalized temperature demand cannot be met or the deviation between the temperature adjusted by the zone temperature control operation and the passenger's personalized temperature demand is still large. Invalid temperature control requests not only fail to substantially meet the passengers' personalized temperature needs, but also reduce the effectiveness and economy of zone temperature control.

[0036] In view of this, the present application discloses a control method for a vehicle air-conditioning system, which can determine whether the received zone temperature control request is valid when receiving the zone temperature control request, and refuse to execute invalid requests in the zone temperature control request, so as to take into account the personalized temperature requirements of passengers and the economy and effectiveness of the zone temperature control request.

[0037] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of an implementation scenario provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 The implementation scenario provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a vehicle control system 11 and a vehicle air conditioning system 12.

[0038] The vehicle-mounted control system 11 and the vehicle-mounted air-conditioning system 12 may be connected via a wired or wireless manner, so that the vehicle-mounted air-conditioning system 12 may adjust the temperature inside the vehicle under the control of the vehicle-mounted control system 11 .

[0039] Optionally, the vehicle-mounted control system 11 may be a vehicle-mounted controller, a vehicle-mounted control terminal, or a control system mounted in a vehicle, etc., and this application does not impose any limitation on this.

[0040] The vehicle air conditioning system 12 may include a central air conditioner and a plurality of zoned temperature control devices disposed at different locations inside the vehicle. The central air conditioner may adjust the temperature inside the vehicle to the set temperature of the central air conditioner through a plurality of air outlets disposed at different locations inside the vehicle under the control of the vehicle control system 11; the zoned temperature control devices disposed at different locations inside the vehicle may adjust the temperature of different areas in the vehicle respectively under the control of the vehicle control system 11.

[0041] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above-mentioned vehicle control system 11 and vehicle air-conditioning system 12 are only examples, and other existing or future vehicle control systems or vehicle air-conditioning systems, if applicable to the present application, should also be included in the protection scope of the present application and are included here by reference.

[0042] Figure 2is a flow chart of a control method for a vehicle air conditioning system provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method may be executed by a control system installed in a vehicle, for example. The present application does not impose any limitation in this regard. Figure 2 The control method of the vehicle air conditioning system provided in the embodiment of the present application may include the following steps:

[0043] Step S210, receiving a zone temperature control request, where the zone temperature control request is used to request the vehicle air conditioning system to adjust the temperatures of different zones in the vehicle to different desired temperatures.

[0044] Optionally, the zone temperature control request can be used to enable the vehicle air conditioning system to adjust the temperature of different areas in the vehicle to different desired temperatures. The desired temperature can be used to indicate the personalized temperature requirement of the passenger corresponding to the zone temperature control request. The zone temperature control request can be received, for example, by the passenger sending the zone temperature control request to the vehicle according to his or her personalized temperature requirement through one or more interactive methods such as a touch screen, voice recognition module, and buttons provided by the vehicle. The vehicle receives the zone temperature control request sent by the passenger through one or more interactive methods such as a touch screen, voice recognition module, and buttons.

[0045] As mentioned above, the vehicle air conditioning system may include, for example, a plurality of zoned temperature control devices disposed at different locations inside the vehicle for adjusting the temperature of different areas in the vehicle. In some embodiments, one or more interaction methods such as a touch screen, a voice recognition module, and buttons provided by the vehicle may be disposed on the zoned temperature control device, so that passengers may adjust the temperature of different areas in the vehicle to different desired temperatures according to the interaction methods disposed on the zoned temperature control device.

[0046] Step S220, determining whether the zone temperature control request is valid according to the environmental information inside the vehicle and / or the status information of the vehicle air conditioning system.

[0047] Illustratively, the environmental information inside the vehicle may include, for example, any information related to passengers, objects, air, etc. that constitute the internal environment of the vehicle; the status information of the vehicle air-conditioning system may include, for example, any information used to indicate the operating status of the vehicle air-conditioning system, and the present application does not impose any restrictions in this regard. As mentioned above, due to various factors such as limited internal space in the vehicle and limited hardware conditions of the vehicle air-conditioning system, the degree of refinement of the zoned temperature control capabilities of the vehicle air-conditioning is also limited, resulting in some invalid requests in the received zoned temperature control requests. In view of this, the embodiments of the present application can identify the zoned temperature control request based on the environmental information inside the vehicle and / or the status information of the vehicle air-conditioning system to determine the validity of the received zoned temperature control request, thereby improving the effectiveness and economy of the zoned temperature control operation of the vehicle air-conditioning system.

[0048] Since the overall temperature inside the vehicle is usually determined by the central air conditioner of the vehicle air conditioning system, considering that when the expected temperature corresponding to the zone temperature control request is greatly different from the set temperature of the central air conditioner, the zone temperature control operation performed by the vehicle air conditioning system according to the zone temperature control request may not achieve the expected effect. In view of this, the zone temperature control request can be identified according to the set temperature of the central air conditioner to determine the validity of the zone temperature control request. In some embodiments, the vehicle air conditioning system may include a central air conditioner, and the status information may include the set temperature of the central air conditioner. Whether the zone temperature control request is valid is determined based on the environmental information inside the vehicle and / or the status information of the vehicle air conditioning system. For example, it may include: if the difference between the expected temperature corresponding to the zone temperature control request and the set temperature is greater than the first temperature difference threshold, then the zone temperature control request is determined to be invalid. Among them, the value of the first temperature difference threshold can be adjusted according to the application scenario, for example, and the present application is not limited in this regard. The embodiment of the present application determines the zone temperature control request corresponding to the expected temperature whose temperature difference with the set temperature of the central air conditioner is greater than the first temperature difference threshold as an invalid request, which can avoid the invalid occupation of the vehicle air-conditioning system caused by the expected temperature corresponding to the zone temperature control request exceeding the adjustment range of the zone temperature control of the vehicle air-conditioning system, thereby improving the effectiveness of the zone temperature control operation.

[0049] It is also considered that when the vehicle air conditioning system performs the zone temperature control operation, it is impossible to maintain a large temperature difference between two adjacent areas in the vehicle. In view of this, the zone temperature control request can be identified according to the temperature of the adjacent area of ​​the area in the vehicle corresponding to the zone temperature control request to determine the validity of the zone temperature control request. In some embodiments, the environmental information may include, for example, first zone temperature information indicating the temperature in the adjacent area of ​​the area corresponding to the zone temperature control request in the vehicle; determining whether the zone temperature control request is valid according to the environmental information inside the vehicle and / or the state information of the vehicle air conditioning system, for example, may include: if the difference between the expected temperature corresponding to the zone temperature control request and the temperature corresponding to the first zone temperature information is greater than the second temperature difference threshold, then determining that the zone temperature control request is invalid. Among them, the value of the second temperature difference threshold can be adjusted according to the application scenario, for example, and the present application is not limited in this regard. The embodiment of the present application determines the zone temperature control request corresponding to the expected temperature whose temperature difference between adjacent areas exceeds the second temperature difference threshold as an invalid request, which can avoid the invalid occupation of the vehicle air conditioning system caused by the expected temperature corresponding to the zone temperature control request exceeding the refinement level of the zone temperature control operation of the vehicle air conditioning system, and improve the validity of the zone temperature control operation.

[0050] Step S231: If the zone temperature control request is valid, the vehicle air conditioning system is controlled to adjust the temperature in the area of ​​the vehicle corresponding to the zone temperature control request to the desired temperature.

[0051] Exemplarily, the zone temperature control request being valid can be used to indicate that the zone temperature control operation performed by the vehicle air conditioning system according to the received zone temperature control request can meet the personalized temperature requirements of the passengers or the deviation from the personalized temperature requirements of the passengers is small, that is, the vehicle air conditioning system performs the zone temperature control operation according to the received zone temperature control request, and the temperature of the area in the vehicle corresponding to the zone temperature control request after adjustment is consistent with the expected temperature or the temperature difference between the area and the expected temperature is less than the third temperature difference threshold. Among them, the value of the third temperature difference threshold can be adjusted according to the application scenario, for example, and this application does not limit this aspect.

[0052] Step S232: If the zone temperature control request is invalid, reject the zone temperature control request.

[0053] Similarly, the invalid zone temperature control request can be used to indicate that the zone temperature control operation performed by the vehicle air-conditioning system according to the received zone temperature control request cannot meet the personalized temperature requirements of the passengers or the deviation from the personalized temperature requirements of the passengers is large, that is, the temperature of the area corresponding to the zone temperature control request in the vehicle after the vehicle air-conditioning system performs the zone temperature control operation according to the received zone temperature control request is inconsistent with the expected temperature or the temperature difference with the expected temperature is greater than the third temperature difference threshold. Before executing the zone temperature control operation, the embodiment of the present application determines the validity of the zone temperature control request received by the vehicle air-conditioning system, which can not only meet the personalized temperature requirements of the passengers through the valid requests in the zone temperature control request, but also ensure the validity of the zone temperature control operation of the vehicle air-conditioning system by rejecting the invalid requests in the zone temperature control request, which greatly improves the intelligence and economy of the vehicle's internal temperature control.

[0054] Considering that it is impossible to send a zone temperature control request to the vehicle in a timely or accurate manner according to personalized temperature requirements due to unfamiliarity with the operation of the zone temperature control or other reasons, or when the sent zone temperature control request is rejected, there may still be personalized passenger requirements for the temperature inside the vehicle. In view of this, the personalized temperature requirements that may exist for passengers inside the vehicle can be automatically identified through the environmental information inside the vehicle. In some implementation scenarios, the method disclosed in the embodiment of the present application may also include: when the zone temperature control request is not received or the zone temperature control request is rejected, controlling the vehicle air-conditioning system according to the environmental information. Among them, the environmental information inside the vehicle, as described above, may include, for example, any information related to the passengers inside the vehicle, which can be used to intelligently identify the personalized temperature requirements of passengers inside the vehicle, so as to provide intelligent air-conditioning services for the passengers.

[0055] In some embodiments, the environmental information inside the vehicle may include, for example, passenger position information indicating the position of the passenger, and controlling the vehicle air conditioning system according to the environmental information inside the vehicle may include, for example, controlling the vehicle air conditioning system according to the passenger position information to start the vehicle air conditioning system in the area of ​​the vehicle corresponding to the passenger position information. The passenger position information may be obtained by any means such as, but not limited to, an in-vehicle camera, a heat source sensor, a radar, etc., and the present application does not impose any restrictions in this regard.

[0056] As mentioned above, the vehicle air conditioning system may include a central air conditioner, for example, which may adjust the temperature inside the vehicle to the set temperature of the central air conditioner through multiple air outlets arranged at different positions inside the vehicle. In some embodiments, the vehicle air conditioning system is controlled according to the passenger position information to start the vehicle air conditioning system in the area corresponding to the passenger position information in the vehicle, for example, by opening the air outlet of the central air conditioner in the area corresponding to the passenger position information in the vehicle, so that when the vehicle receives a zone temperature control request, it can intelligently identify whether the multiple air outlets arranged at different positions inside the vehicle are in need of use according to the passenger position information, and then provide air conditioning service to the passengers.

[0057] In some embodiments, the environmental information inside the vehicle may include, for example, passenger temperature information indicating the passenger's body surface temperature. Controlling the vehicle's air-conditioning system based on the environmental information inside the vehicle may, for example, include: controlling the vehicle's air-conditioning system based on the passenger temperature information to adjust the temperature in the area of ​​the vehicle corresponding to the passenger temperature information.

[0058] As mentioned above, the vehicle air conditioning system may include multiple zoned temperature control devices arranged at different locations inside the vehicle for adjusting the temperature of different areas in the vehicle. In some embodiments, the vehicle air conditioning system is controlled according to the passenger temperature information to adjust the temperature in the area corresponding to the passenger temperature information in the vehicle, for example, it may include: multiple zoned temperature control devices adjust the temperature in the area corresponding to the passenger temperature information in the vehicle according to the passenger temperature information, so that when the vehicle receives a zoned temperature control request, it can provide intelligent air conditioning services to the passenger according to the passenger's body surface temperature.

[0059] Considering that when the expected temperatures corresponding to the zone temperature control requests sent by most passengers inside the vehicle tend to one direction, it indicates that the overall expectation of the passengers inside the vehicle for the temperature inside the vehicle may not match the current temperature inside the vehicle, and the temperature inside the vehicle needs to be adjusted. As mentioned above, the central air conditioner of the vehicle air conditioning system can adjust the temperature inside the vehicle to the set temperature of the central air conditioner through multiple air outlets arranged at different positions inside the vehicle.

[0060] In view of this, when multiple zone temperature control requests are received from passengers inside the vehicle, the set temperature of the central air conditioner can be adjusted according to the expected temperatures corresponding to the multiple zone temperature control requests to meet the overall expectations of the passengers inside the vehicle for the temperature inside the vehicle. In some embodiments, the vehicle air conditioning system may include a central air conditioner, the status information inside the vehicle may include the set temperature of the central air conditioner, the zone temperature control request received by the vehicle may include multiple, and the expected temperature corresponding to the zone temperature control request received by the vehicle may also include multiple. The control method of the vehicle air conditioning system disclosed in the embodiment of the present application may also include: if the number of expected temperatures greater than the set temperature of the central air conditioner among the multiple expected temperatures corresponding to the multiple zone temperature control requests received by the vehicle exceeds a first quantity threshold, the set temperature of the central air conditioner is increased according to the expected temperature greater than the set temperature. If the number of expected temperatures less than the set temperature of the central air conditioner among the multiple expected temperatures corresponding to the multiple zone temperature control instructions received by the vehicle exceeds a second quantity threshold, the set temperature of the central air conditioner is lowered according to the expected temperature less than the set temperature.

[0061] It is also considered that the passengers in the vehicle may include people who are not suitable for air conditioning, such as the elderly, children, etc. In view of this, in some embodiments, the control method of the vehicle air conditioning system disclosed in the embodiment of the present application may include: when the passengers of the vehicle include the elderly and / or children, generating prompt information for prompting whether to start the vehicle air conditioning system in the area corresponding to the elderly and / or children in the vehicle; controlling the vehicle air conditioning system according to the feedback information of the prompt information. Among them, the prompt information can be used to prompt the driver of the vehicle that the passengers inside the vehicle include the elderly and / or children, and ask whether to start the vehicle air conditioning system in the area corresponding to the elderly and / or children in the vehicle; the feedback information can be used to control the vehicle to start or not start the vehicle air conditioning system in the area corresponding to the elderly and / or children, so as to provide more humane air conditioning services for the elderly and / or children in the vehicle.

[0062] The present application can determine whether the received zone temperature control request is valid through the environmental information inside the vehicle and / or the status information of the vehicle air conditioning system. When the zone temperature control request is valid, the vehicle air conditioning system can be controlled by the zone temperature control request to adjust the temperature of different areas in the vehicle respectively to meet the personalized needs of passengers for the temperature inside the vehicle; when the zone temperature control request is invalid, the vehicle air conditioning system can reject the request, which reduces the time taken by the vehicle air conditioning system to process invalid requests, reduces the load of the vehicle air conditioning system and improves the effectiveness of zone temperature control.

[0063] In some other possible implementations, the present application also provides a control device for a vehicle air-conditioning system.

[0066] The third execution module 330 is used to control the vehicle air conditioning system to adjust the temperature in the area corresponding to the zone temperature control request in the vehicle to the desired temperature if the zone temperature control request is valid.

[0067] The third execution module 330 is further configured to reject the zone temperature control request if the zone temperature control request is invalid.

[0068] In some embodiments, the vehicle air-conditioning system includes a central air-conditioning, the status information includes the set temperature of the central air-conditioning, and the second execution module 320 is also used to determine that the zone temperature control request is invalid if the difference between the expected temperature corresponding to the zone temperature control request and the set temperature is greater than the first temperature difference threshold.

[0071] In some embodiments, the environmental information includes passenger position information indicating the position of the passenger, and the fourth execution module is also used to control the vehicle air-conditioning system according to the passenger position information to start the vehicle air-conditioning system in an area of ​​the vehicle corresponding to the passenger position information.

If the number of expected temperatures less than the set temperature among the multiple expected temperatures exceeds a second quantity threshold, the set temperature of the central air conditioner is lowered according to the expected temperature less than the set temperature.
