Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of vehicle automatic control, and in particular to a vehicle control method and device. Background Art

[0002] As people's living standards improve, more and more people choose to buy convertible sports cars. Currently, when locking the car, users do not necessarily care whether the convertible is closed. It is very easy for them to forget to close the convertible before leaving or the convertible is not closed properly, thus causing property safety problems for users. Summary of the invention

[0003] The embodiments of the present application provide a vehicle control method and device to achieve the function of closing the vehicle convertible while locking the vehicle, which is beneficial to protecting the property safety of the user.

[0004] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle control method, including:

[0005] A vehicle lock command is detected; in response to the vehicle lock command, the convertible top is controlled to close.

[0006] It can be seen that by controlling the vehicle convertible to close while locking the vehicle in response to a lock command, the function of closing the vehicle convertible while locking the vehicle is achieved, which is beneficial to protecting the user's property safety and improving the user experience.

[0007] In combination with the first aspect, in a possible implementation, controlling the convertible to close includes: obtaining a working state of the convertible; determining a control strategy for the convertible according to the working state of the convertible; and controlling the convertible to close based on the control strategy.

[0008] In combination with the first aspect, in a possible implementation, obtaining the working status of the convertible includes: obtaining the motion state and position information of the convertible; when the motion state is that the convertible is in a stationary state and the position information indicates that the convertible is in a fully closed position, the working status of the convertible is a closed state; when the motion state is an open convertible state, the working status of the convertible is an open execution state; when the motion state is a closed convertible state, the working status of the convertible is a closed execution state.

[0009] By obtaining the motion state and position information of the vehicle, the current working state of the vehicle convertible is determined, which is conducive to subsequently determining the control strategy of the vehicle convertible in the current working state according to the different working states of the vehicle, and is conducive to improving the intelligence level of the vehicle.

[0010] In combination with the first aspect, in a possible implementation manner, the acquired motion state and position information includes: motion state and position information determined according to a rotation speed and a rotation direction of the motor.

[0011] The rotation speed and rotation direction of the motor used for driving are determined based on the signal detected by the Hall sensor set in the motor.

[0012] The position information and motion state determined by the signal detected by the Hall sensor arranged in the motor is conducive to improving the accuracy of the vehicle in obtaining the position information and motion state and avoiding the influence of abnormal values.

[0013] In combination with the first aspect, in a possible implementation, when it is detected that the working state is in an open execution state, the control strategy of the convertible includes: controlling the convertible to stop moving in a second direction, and controlling the convertible to move in a first direction, wherein the second direction is the direction of opening the convertible, and the first direction is the direction of closing the convertible; when it is detected that the working state is in an unclosed state, the control strategy of the convertible includes: controlling the convertible to move in the first direction; when it is detected that the working state is in a closed state or a closed execution state, the control strategy of the convertible includes: controlling the convertible to keep the working state unchanged.

[0014] The current working state of the convertible is determined based on the acquired motion state and position information, and the convertible control strategy is formulated and implemented. On the one hand, the vehicle can accurately obtain the working state of the convertible based on the current motion state and position information of the convertible, and on the other hand, the vehicle can intelligently formulate a control strategy based on the working state of the convertible, thereby realizing the combination of vehicle intelligence and accuracy and improving the user experience.

[0015] In combination with the first aspect, in a possible implementation, if it is detected that there is an obstacle on the path of the convertible moving in the first direction, the convertible is controlled to stop moving in the first direction, and the convertible is controlled to move a target distance in the second direction.

[0016] When an obstacle is detected on the path where the convertible top moves in the first direction, the convertible top is controlled to stop moving in the first direction and open a certain distance, thereby ensuring that the convertible top and the obstacle will not be damaged due to collision, thereby meeting the property safety needs of the user.

[0017] In combination with the first aspect, in a possible implementation, during the process of controlling movement in the first direction, when it is detected that the driving current of the motor exceeds the stall threshold, the motor is controlled to stop running, and then the motor is controlled to reverse.

[0018] When it is detected that the driving current of the motor exceeds the stall threshold, the motor is controlled to stop running, which can ensure that the motor is not damaged; then the motor is controlled to reverse and open a certain distance, so as to facilitate the removal of foreign objects or obstacles when they are clamped.

[0019] In combination with the first aspect, in a possible implementation, the vehicle control method further includes: when a vehicle locking instruction is detected, if the vehicle has not entered an anti-theft locking state, executing an operation of controlling the convertible to close.

[0020] When a vehicle locking command is detected, whether to execute the operation of controlling the convertible to close is determined by judging whether the vehicle has entered an anti-theft locking state. When it is determined that the vehicle has entered an anti-theft locking state, there is no need to execute the operation of controlling the convertible to close. Repeated execution of the operation of controlling the convertible to close can be avoided, which is beneficial to improving the intelligence of the vehicle convertible control and improving the user experience.

[0021] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle control device, the device comprising:

[0022] A detection module, used for detecting a vehicle locking instruction for the vehicle;

[0023] The execution module is used to respond to the vehicle locking command and control the convertible to close.

[0024] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle control device, the device comprising:

[0025] A memory, a processor, and a vehicle control program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the vehicle control program is configured to implement part or all of the steps described in any method in the first aspect.

[0026] In a fourth aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a computer-readable storage medium, on which a vehicle control program is stored. When the vehicle control program is executed by a processor, some or all of the steps described in any method in the first aspect are implemented.

[0027] In a fifth aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a computer program product, wherein the computer program product includes a computer program, and the computer program is operable to cause a computer to execute some or all of the steps described in any method of the first aspect of the embodiment of the present application.

The domain controller first detects a vehicle locking command for the vehicle; then responds to the vehicle locking command to control the convertible to close, thereby realizing the function of closing the vehicle convertible while locking the vehicle, meeting the user's property safety needs, simplifying the manual operation steps, and greatly improving the user experience.

[0041] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 It is a system architecture diagram of a vehicle control method provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0042] Among them, the domain control 101 is installed in the vehicle and interacts with the whole vehicle through the CAN line. It is used to analyze and process the signal request of the locking system and provide power output for the motor group 102 used to open the convertible system. The motor group 102 includes the left / right convertible strut motor 109, the left / right rear window strut motor 110 and the left / right storage box strut motor 111, which are used to receive the command of the domain control 101 and drive the vehicle convertible to open or close; the convertible lock 103 is installed at the junction of the upper soft top and the front window frame, and is used to close the internal switch of the soft top, so that the soft top convertible is in a locked state, and the state is reflected to the domain control 101; the storage cover lock 104 is installed at the junction of the upper storage cover and the rear frame of the car, and the locking state is reflected to the domain control 101; the micro switch 105 is installed on the outside of the door handle, and is used to transmit the switch lock signal, and interacts with the domain control 101 through a hard line; the remote control key 106 is carried by the user and controlled by the whole vehicle The key detection antenna feeds back the key position to the domain control 101; NFC107, installed on the outside of the vehicle body, can receive the switch lock signal and feed back the signal to the domain control 101; the terminal device 108, carried by the user, and sends the automatic switch lock signal to the domain control 101 through the wireless module of the terminal device; optionally, the terminal device 108 is a smart phone, a smart watch, a smart bracelet, a tablet computer or other devices; the wireless module is a WiFi module, a Bluetooth module or other wireless modules; the left / right convertible strut motor 109 is buried in a circle around the front soft top and connected to the convertible cloth; the left / right rear window strut motor 110 is installed on both sides of the rear of the soft top; the left / right storage box strut motor 111 is installed on both sides of the storage cover.

[0043] Based on this, the present application provides a vehicle control method, which is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0044] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a flow chart of a vehicle control method provided by an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0045] S201, the control device detects a vehicle locking instruction for the vehicle;

[0046] S202, the control device responds to the vehicle locking instruction and controls the convertible to close.

[0047] The control device is Figure 1The domain controller 101 or a module in the domain controller 101. The domain controller detects the vehicle locking command in real time, which may be a wireless signal sent by a remote control key carried by the user, a door closing signal detected by a micro switch on the outside of the vehicle door handle, an interactive signal detected by an NFC module installed on the outside of the vehicle body, or a vehicle locking signal sent by a user's mobile phone, wherein the interactive signal refers to a signal detected when the user's terminal device 108 or NFC card is close to the NCF module.

[0048] Among them, the car locking command has two functions: locking the car and closing the convertible. When responding to the car locking command, the control device performs the car locking operation and the convertible closing operation.

[0049] Among them, the control device performs the convertible closing operation, specifically controls the motor group to control the vehicle convertible to close. Specifically, the control device first controls the left / right rear window support rod motor to operate to make room for the left / right storage box support rod motor, then controls the left / right storage box support rod motor to operate to support the storage cover of the convertible at the rear of the vehicle to open, and finally controls the left / right convertible support rod motor and the left / right rear window support rod motor to operate synchronously to close the convertible, wherein the left / right convertible support rod motor is used to control the front of the vehicle convertible to close and present a Z shape, and the left / right rear window support rod motor is used to control the rear of the vehicle convertible to close and fit with the storage cover.

[0050] It can be seen that in this example, by locking the vehicle in response to a locking command and controlling the vehicle convertible to close at the same time, the function of closing the vehicle convertible while locking the vehicle is achieved, which is beneficial to protecting the user's property safety and improving the user experience.

[0051] In a possible implementation, controlling the convertible to close includes the following steps:

[0052] The control device obtains the working state of the convertible, and determines a control strategy of the convertible based on the working state of the convertible. The control device controls the convertible to close based on the control strategy.

[0053] The control device may determine the current working state of the convertible through the current position information of the convertible and the current movement state of the convertible.

[0054] Specifically, the control device obtains the motion state and position information of the convertible, wherein the motion state includes an open convertible state, a closed convertible state or a convertible stationary state, and the position information is used to indicate whether the convertible is in a partially closed position or a fully closed position; and determines the working state of the convertible based on the motion state and the position information.

[0055] Among them, the movement state of the convertible is used to characterize the current movement of the convertible. For example, when the movement state of the convertible is the open convertible state, it means that the vehicle convertible is opening. For another example, when the movement state of the convertible is the closed convertible state, it means that the vehicle convertible is closing. For another example, when the movement state of the convertible is the convertible stationary state, it means that the vehicle convertible is not moving.

[0056] When the convertible position information indicates that the convertible is in a not completely closed position, it means that the convertible is in a completely open position or an intermediate position.

[0057] It can be seen that in this example, the motion state and position information of the convertible are obtained to determine the control strategy of the convertible to close the convertible. Different control strategies can be formulated to complete the convertible closing operation when the convertible is in different working states, which is conducive to realizing the function of closing the vehicle convertible while locking the vehicle, and is conducive to improving the intelligent experience of the vehicle.

[0058] In a possible implementation, obtaining the motion state and position information of the convertible includes: the control device determines the motion state and position information of the convertible according to the rotation speed and rotation direction of the motor.

[0059] Among them, the motor is used to drive the movement of the convertible. One or more Hall sensors are provided in the motor. By acquiring the Hall signal of the Hall sensor within a fixed time, the Hall signal can characterize the rotation speed and direction of the motor. Specifically, the Hall signal is manifested as a high-low level flip jump. For example, the Hall signal flips once when the motor rotates one circle. The rotation speed and direction of the motor within a period of time can be obtained through the speed and direction of the Hall signal level flip.

[0060] Specifically, the control device determines whether the motor is rotating by the rotation speed of the motor. For example, when the rotation speed of the motor is 0, the control device determines that the convertible is not moving, and the motion state of the convertible is the convertible static state. When the rotation speed of the motor is not 0, the control device determines the motion direction of the convertible based on the rotation direction of the motor, and then determines the current motion state of the convertible. For example, when the motor rotates forward, the motion state of the convertible is the open state; when the motor rotates reversely, the motion state of the convertible is the closed state.

[0061] The control device obtains the position information of the convertible based on the rotation speed, rotation direction and motor movement time of the motor. For example, when the motor is working, the control device obtains the position change information of the convertible based on the rotation speed, rotation direction and rotation time of the motor, and then determines the position information of the convertible. Of course, the position information of the convertible can also be obtained by other means, such as through a convertible position sensor.

[0062] It can be seen that in this example, the control device uses the Hall sensor set in the motor to detect the position information and movement state of the convertible, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the vehicle in obtaining the position information and movement state of the convertible and avoiding the influence of abnormal values. At the same time, the Hall sensor is small in size and can measure and collect the current and voltage of any waveform. It has a good linear working environment, which is conducive to achieving the combination of vehicle convenience and accuracy.

[0063] In one possible implementation, when the motion state is the convertible stationary state and the position information indicates that the convertible is in a not fully closed position, the working state of the convertible is determined to be an unclosed state; when the motion state is the convertible stationary state and the position information indicates that the convertible is in a fully closed position, the working state of the convertible is determined to be a closed state; when the motion state is the convertible opening state, the working state of the convertible is determined to be an open execution state; when the motion state is the convertible closing state, the working state of the convertible is determined to be a closed execution state.

[0064] Among them, when it is detected that the working state is in the open execution state, the control strategy of the convertible includes: controlling the convertible to stop moving in the second direction, and controlling the convertible to move in the first direction after a target time interval, wherein the second direction is the direction of opening the convertible, and the first direction is the direction of closing the convertible; when it is detected that the working state is in the unclosed state, the control strategy of the convertible includes: controlling the convertible to move in the first direction; when it is detected that the working state is in the closed state or the closed execution state, the control strategy of the convertible includes: controlling the convertible to keep the working state unchanged.

[0065] The target time may be 300ms, 500ms or 1s, and there is no restriction on the target time.

[0066] It can be seen that in this example, the current working state of the vehicle convertible is determined by obtaining the vehicle's motion state and position information, which is conducive to subsequently determining the control strategy of the vehicle convertible in the current working state according to the different working states of the vehicle, which is conducive to improving the intelligence level of the vehicle and improving the user experience.

[0067] In a possible implementation, the vehicle control method further includes:

[0068] When the control device is controlling the convertible to move in the first direction, if it detects that the working state is in the closed state, the control device controls the convertible to maintain the working state unchanged; when the control device detects that the working state is not in the closed state, the control device continues to control the convertible to move in the first direction until the convertible is in the closed state. When controlling the convertible to move in the first direction, the control device can adjust the closing angle and closing speed of the convertible.

[0069] In one example, the domain controller obtains information of a convertible lock provided on the outside of the vehicle, and determines whether the convertible is completely closed based on the information.

[0070] It can be seen that in this example, by detecting the real-time movement state of the convertible and controlling the convertible movement to complete the closing operation, the user experience can be improved and the user's property safety needs can be met.

[0071] In a possible implementation, when closing the convertible, there may be a situation where the convertible is caught by foreign objects or obstacles. To prevent this situation, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 is a flow chart of the implementation method of the anti-pinch function provided in the embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 4 As shown, the vehicle control method also includes:

[0072] S2031, the control device detects the driving current of the motor during the process of controlling the convertible to move in the first direction;

[0073] S2032, when the control device detects that the driving current of the motor exceeds the stall threshold, it controls the motor to stop running and controls the motor to reverse.

[0074] S2033, the control device controls the vehicle to issue a warning message to remind the user that the convertible top of the vehicle is not closed.

[0075] The stall threshold is a current value preset by the domain controller. The stall threshold is used to determine whether an obstacle is encountered during the process of closing the convertible. For example, when an obstacle is encountered during the process of closing the convertible, the resistance to closing the convertible becomes larger, the load torque of the motor increases, and the drive current becomes larger. When the drive current exceeds the stall threshold, the control device controls the motor to stop running, and then controls the motor to reverse the target angle to control the convertible to open a certain distance. The target angle is a small angle, which can be 5 degrees or 10 degrees, and there is no limit on the target angle.

[0076] Among them, the warning information can be the lighting information of the vehicle display terminal, the lighting information of the vehicle's outer lighting, the voice information played by the vehicle's voice module, the whistle sound emitted by the vehicle's horn and / or the information sent to the mobile device held by the user. By issuing the warning information, it is easier for the user to notice that foreign objects are clamped in the convertible.

[0077] It can be seen that in this example, by setting the stall threshold and comparing it with the driving current of the motor, the convertible can have an anti-pinch function during the closing process to protect the user's personal safety. At the same time, when it is detected that the driving current of the motor exceeds the stall threshold, the motor is controlled to stop running to ensure that the motor is not damaged; then the motor is controlled to reverse, so that the convertible opens a certain distance, and then foreign objects are easily removed when the convertible clamps them.

[0078] In a possible implementation, the vehicle control method further includes: if the control device detects that there is an obstacle on the path of the convertible moving in the first direction, controlling the convertible to stop moving in the first direction and controlling the convertible to move a target distance in the second direction.

[0079] The target distance may be 10 cm, 15 cm or 20 cm, and there is no restriction on the target distance.

[0080] Specifically, the control device can obtain sensor information through a sensor installed on the convertible of the vehicle, and determine whether there is an obstacle on the path of the convertible of the vehicle moving in the first direction based on the sensor information; when the control device detects the presence of an obstacle, it controls the motor to stop running and controls the motor to reverse to a target angle.

[0081] The sensor may be an infrared sensor or a pressure sensor, and the sensor is not limited here.

[0082] Among them, the sensor information obtained by the infrared sensor is the time when the infrared sensor sends and receives the same reflected infrared ray. Specifically, the propagation time of the infrared ray is determined by the sending time and receiving time of the same infrared ray, and then the distance between the current position of the convertible and the fully closed position is obtained based on the product of the propagation time of the infrared ray and the propagation speed of the infrared ray. When the distance decreases at a uniform speed, it indicates that there is no obstacle. When the distance suddenly decreases significantly, it indicates that there is an obstacle.

[0083] Among them, the sensor information obtained by the pressure sensor is the magnitude of the force applied during the convertible closing process. Specifically, when the force applied during the convertible closing process is less than the pressure threshold, it indicates that there is no obstacle. When the force applied during the convertible closing process is greater than or equal to the pressure threshold, it indicates that there is an obstacle.

[0084] Among them, one or more infrared sensors can be provided, and the infrared sensor can be provided at a position that can send and receive reflected infrared rays during the process of closing the convertible top of the vehicle.

[0085] The infrared sensor may also be replaced with other sensors that can also detect whether there is an obstacle during the convertible closing process, such as an ultrasonic sensor or a sensor using the photoelectric sensing principle.

[0086] It can be seen that in this example, the sensor installed on the convertible determines whether there is an obstacle on the path of closing the convertible. If it is determined that there is an obstacle, the anti-pinch function is achieved by opening the convertible for a certain distance, while preventing damage caused by collision between the convertible and the obstacle, thereby meeting the user's property safety needs.

[0087] In a possible implementation, the vehicle control method further includes:

[0088] When the control device detects the vehicle locking command, it determines whether the vehicle has entered the anti-theft locking state; if the vehicle has not entered the anti-theft locking state, it executes the operation of controlling the convertible to close.

[0089] It should be pointed out that in the scheme of the present application, when the vehicle has entered the anti-theft locking state, the vehicle has been locked and the convertible has been closed; before executing the control of closing the convertible, the convertible is determined whether it has been closed by judging whether the vehicle has entered the anti-theft locking state, thereby avoiding repeated execution of the operation of controlling the convertible to close.

[0090] It should be understood that whether the vehicle enters the anti-theft locking state is determined by whether the vehicle lock detects the vehicle lock signal. When the vehicle lock signal is detected, the vehicle enters the anti-theft locking state. At this time, the control device locks the vehicle and drives the motor to control the vehicle convertible to close.

[0091] It can be seen that in this example, by detecting the vehicle lock command and the vehicle lock signal through the domain controller to determine whether the vehicle needs to enter the locked state, repeated convertible operations can be avoided, which is beneficial to improving the intelligence of vehicle convertible control and improving user experience.

[0092] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a flow chart of another vehicle control method provided by an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 3 As shown, the process of the method includes:

[0093] S301, the control device continuously monitors the vehicle locking instruction.

[0094] The control device is Figure 1 The domain controller 101 or a module in the domain controller 101. The domain controller detects the vehicle locking command in real time, which may be a wireless signal sent by a remote control key carried by the user, a door closing signal detected by a micro switch on the outside of the vehicle door handle, an interactive signal detected by an NFC module installed on the outside of the vehicle body, or a vehicle locking signal sent by a user's mobile phone, wherein the interactive signal refers to a signal detected when the user's terminal device 108 or NFC card is close to the NCF module.

[0095] S302, the control device determines whether a vehicle locking instruction is detected.

[0096] When a vehicle locking instruction is detected, S303 is executed; when no vehicle locking instruction is detected, the process returns to S301 for execution.

[0097] S303, the control device determines whether to enter the anti-theft locking state.

[0098] When the vehicle has entered the anti-theft locking state, the process returns to S301 ; when the vehicle has not entered the anti-theft locking state, the process returns to S304 .

[0099] Among them, after the control device collects the vehicle locking command, it will determine whether the vehicle has entered the anti-theft locking state based on the vehicle lock signal. When it is detected that the vehicle has entered the anti-theft locking state, the control device will not perform the vehicle locking operation and convertible closing operation.

[0100] S304, the control device determines whether the convertible is completely closed.

[0101] When it is detected that the convertible is completely closed, the control device does not perform the convertible closing operation; when it is detected that the convertible is not completely closed, S305 is executed.

[0102] S305, the control device determines whether the convertible is in a hovering state or a fully opened state.

[0103] When it is detected that the convertible is in a hovering state or a fully opened state, the drive motor controls the convertible to close; when it is detected that the convertible is not in a hovering state, but in a closed state, step S306 is executed.

[0104] The working state of the convertible is determined by the motion state and position information of the convertible.

[0105] Specifically, when the motion state of the convertible is a stationary state and the position information is an intermediate position, the convertible is in a hovering state; when the motion state of the convertible is a stationary state and the position information is an open position, the convertible is in a fully open state.

[0106] S306, the control device determines whether the convertible is in an open convertible state.

[0107] When it is detected that the working state of the convertible is in the open convertible state, S307 is executed; when it is detected that the convertible is not in the open convertible state, the convertible closing operation is not executed, and the control device drives the motor to continue to execute the current action until the convertible is in the closed state, and then S309 is executed;

[0108] S307, the control device drives the motor to stop the current operation, and reverses after the target time to execute the convertible closing action.

[0109] The motion state of the convertible is used to characterize the current motion state of the convertible. For example, if the motion state of the convertible is an open convertible state, it means that the convertible of the vehicle is opening. For another example, if the motion state of the convertible is a closed convertible state, it means that the convertible of the vehicle is closing. For another example, if the motion state of the convertible is a static convertible state, it means that the convertible of the vehicle is not moving. Specifically, the motion state of the convertible is that the convertible moves in the second direction in the open convertible state, and the motion state of the convertible is that the convertible moves in the first direction in the closed convertible state.

[0110] S308, the control device determines whether the stall threshold is reached during the shutdown process.

[0111] When it is detected that the driving current exceeds the stall threshold value during the convertible closing process, the control device controls the convertible to stop the current action and drives the motor to reverse a small angle to open the convertible for a certain distance, and at the same time controls the vehicle to issue a warning message to remind the user that the convertible of the vehicle is not closed;

[0112] Among them, the warning information can be the lighting information of the vehicle display terminal, the lighting information of the vehicle's outer lighting, the voice information played by the vehicle's voice module, the whistle sound emitted by the vehicle's horn and / or the information sent to the mobile device held by the user. By issuing the warning information, it is easier for the user to notice that foreign objects are clamped in the convertible.

[0113] When it is detected that the driving current does not exceed the stall threshold value during the convertible closing process, S309 is executed;

[0114] Among them, the stall threshold is a current value preset by the domain controller. The stall threshold is used to determine whether an obstacle is encountered during the convertible closing process. When the current value exceeds the stall threshold, it indicates that an obstacle is encountered during the convertible closing process. When the current value does not exceed the stall threshold, it indicates that no obstacle is encountered during the convertible closing process.

[0115] The small reverse angle of the motor is a preset angle value, which may be 5 degrees or 10 degrees, and is not limited here.

[0116] S309, the control device determines whether it is detected that the convertible is completely closed.

[0117] When it is detected that the convertible is completely closed, S310 is executed; when it is detected that the convertible is not completely closed, the control device drives the motor to control the convertible to close.

[0118] S310, the control device drives the motor group to execute the convertible closing action.

[0119] It can be seen that in this example, by implementing this method, the function of closing the vehicle convertible while locking the vehicle is achieved, which meets the user's property safety needs, simplifies the manual operation steps, and greatly improves the user experience.
