[0047] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a steering wheel heating control method provided by an embodiment of the present application;

[0048] Figure 3 This is a flow chart of a steering wheel heating control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the implementation methods of the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a heating control system for a steering wheel, which includes a steering wheel module 110, a gateway 120, an air-conditioning module 130 and a central control screen 140.

[0051] The steering wheel module 110 includes a steering wheel, a heater, a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor. Among them, the steering wheel is provided with a hand grip area, which is the area where the driver's hands are placed when driving, usually located on the left and right sides of the steering wheel. By heating the hand grip area, the driver's driving experience can be improved and the driving comfort can be improved. The heater is used to heat the hand grip area in the steering wheel, the temperature sensor is used to collect the temperature of the hand grip area in the steering wheel in real time, and the humidity sensor is used to collect the humidity of the hand grip area in the steering wheel in real time. The steering wheel module 110 can determine whether to stop heating the steering wheel based on the collected temperature and humidity.

[0052] The gateway 120 is used to forward data between the steering wheel module 110, the air conditioning module 130 and the central control screen 140. The gateway 120 and the steering wheel module 110 and the central control screen 140 are connected via a first controller area network (CAN) bus (i.e. Figure 1 The gateway 120 communicates with the air conditioning module 130 through the second CAN bus (i.e. Figure 1 CAN2) communication in .

[0053] The air conditioning module 130 is used to blow air to the steering wheel to dry the driver's hand sweat when the driver's hand sweats due to the heating of the steering wheel.

[0054] The central control screen 140 is used to configure the turning on and off of the steering wheel heating function, and is also used to configure the blowing function of the air conditioning module 130 .

[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, it shows a method flow chart of a heating control method for a steering wheel provided by an embodiment of the present application. The heating control method for a steering wheel can be applied to Figure 1 The heating control system shown in the figure. The heating control method of the steering wheel may include:

[0056] Step 201: The gateway obtains configuration information of the steering wheel and determines whether to turn on the steering wheel heating function according to the configuration information.

[0057] The steering wheel heating function heats the hand-gripping area of ​​the steering wheel so that the driver does not feel cold when holding the steering wheel, thereby improving driving comfort.

[0058] The vehicle is equipped with an operation button for the steering wheel heating function, which can be a physical button or a virtual button on the central control screen. When the user clicks the operation button, the gateway can obtain the configuration information generated according to the click behavior, and determine whether to turn on or off the steering wheel heating function according to the value of the configuration information. For example, 0 indicates turning on the steering wheel heating function, and 1 indicates turning off the steering wheel heating function. If the value of the configuration information obtained by the gateway is 0, the steering wheel heating function is determined to be turned on; if the value of the configuration information obtained by the gateway is 1, the steering wheel heating function is determined to be turned off.

[0059] Of course, in addition to the manual method, the steering wheel heating function can also be turned on or off by voice, gestures, etc. The configuration method is not limited in this embodiment.

[0060] Step 202: If it is determined to turn on the steering wheel heating function, the gateway sends a heating instruction to the steering wheel module, and the heating instruction includes at least a target temperature and a first target humidity.

[0061] In this embodiment, there are two trigger conditions for stopping heating of the steering wheel. The first trigger condition is that the surface temperature of the hand holding area of ​​the steering wheel reaches the target temperature. The second trigger condition is that the surface temperature of the hand holding area of ​​the steering wheel does not reach the target temperature, but the surface humidity reaches the first target humidity. The humidity here is measured after the driver's hand sweat wets the steering wheel.

[0062] The configuration information obtained by the gateway includes the target temperature and the first target humidity, and the gateway can generate a heating instruction carrying the target temperature and the first target humidity. The target temperature and the first target humidity can be default or set according to the personalized needs of the driver, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0063] In step 203, the steering wheel module controls the heater to heat the steering wheel according to the heating instruction, controls the temperature sensor to collect the current temperature of the hand holding area in the steering wheel in real time, and controls the humidity sensor to collect the current humidity of the hand holding area in the steering wheel in real time. The current humidity is the humidity collected when the driver's hand sweat wets the steering wheel after the steering wheel is heated.

[0064] The steering wheel module obtains the current temperature and humidity collected in real time by the temperature sensor and the humidity sensor, reads the target temperature and the first target humidity from the heating instruction, and determines whether the trigger condition for stopping heating is met based on the current temperature, current humidity, target temperature and the first target humidity.

[0065] Specifically, the steering wheel module compares the current temperature with the target temperature, and compares the current humidity with the first target humidity. If the current temperature does not reach the target temperature and the current humidity does not reach the first target humidity, heating continues; if the current temperature does not reach the target temperature, but the current humidity reaches the first target humidity, heating is stopped, that is, step 204 is executed; if the current temperature reaches the target temperature, heating is stopped regardless of whether the current humidity reaches the first target humidity.

[0066] Step 204: If the current temperature does not reach the target temperature and the current humidity reaches the first target humidity, the steering wheel module controls the heater to stop heating the steering wheel.

[0067] To sum up, the steering wheel heating control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, during the process that the steering wheel module controls the heater to heat the steering wheel according to the heating instruction, controls the temperature sensor to collect the current temperature of the hand holding area in the steering wheel in real time, and controls the humidity sensor to collect the current humidity of the hand holding area in the steering wheel in real time. If the current temperature does not reach the target temperature, but the current humidity reaches the first target humidity, it means that the driver's hand sweat has wet the steering wheel. At this time, holding the steering wheel will no longer feel cold, and there is no need to continue heating the steering wheel. In this way, resources can be saved, safety accidents can be avoided, and driving safety can be improved.

[0068] like Figure 3 As shown, it shows a flow chart of a heating control method for a steering wheel provided by an embodiment of the present application. The heating control method for a steering wheel can be applied to Figure 1 The heating control system shown in the figure. The heating control method of the steering wheel may include:

[0069] Step 301: The gateway obtains configuration information of the steering wheel and determines whether to turn on the steering wheel heating function according to the configuration information.

[0070] The steering wheel heating function heats the hand-gripping area of ​​the steering wheel so that the driver does not feel cold when holding the steering wheel, thereby improving driving comfort.

[0071] The vehicle is provided with an operation button for the steering wheel heating function, which can be a physical button or a virtual button on the central control screen.

[0072] Taking the steering wheel heating function item on the central control screen as an example, the central control screen receives the driver's operation to turn on the steering wheel heating function item, generates configuration information for instructing to turn on the steering wheel heating function according to the turn-on operation, and sends the configuration information to the gateway; the gateway receives the configuration information sent by the central control screen.

[0073] For example, 0 represents turning on the steering wheel heating function, and 1 represents turning off the steering wheel heating function. When the driver triggers the turning on operation of the steering wheel heating function, the central control screen generates configuration information with a value of 0, and sends the configuration information to the gateway through the first CAN bus. The gateway receives the configuration information through the first CAN bus.

[0074] Step 302: If it is determined to turn on the steering wheel heating function, the gateway sends a heating instruction to the steering wheel module, and the heating instruction includes at least a target temperature and a first target humidity.

[0075] If the value of the configuration information obtained by the gateway is 0, it is determined that the steering wheel heating function is turned on.

[0076] In this embodiment, there are two trigger conditions for stopping heating of the steering wheel. The first trigger condition is that the surface temperature of the hand holding area of ​​the steering wheel reaches the target temperature. The second trigger condition is that the surface temperature of the hand holding area of ​​the steering wheel does not reach the target temperature, but the surface humidity reaches the first target humidity. The humidity here is measured after the driver's hand sweat wets the steering wheel.

[0077] The configuration information obtained by the gateway includes the target temperature and the first target humidity. The gateway can generate a heating instruction carrying the target temperature and the first target humidity, and send the heating instruction to the steering wheel module through the first CAN bus. The target temperature and the first target humidity can be default or set according to the personalized needs of the driver, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0078] In step 303, the steering wheel module controls the heater to heat the steering wheel according to the heating instruction, controls the temperature sensor to collect the current temperature of the hand holding area in the steering wheel in real time, and controls the humidity sensor to collect the current humidity of the hand holding area in the steering wheel in real time. The current humidity is the humidity collected when the driver's hand sweat wets the steering wheel after the steering wheel is heated.

[0079] The steering wheel module obtains the current temperature and humidity collected in real time by the temperature sensor and the humidity sensor, reads the target temperature and the first target humidity from the heating instruction, and determines whether the trigger condition for stopping heating is met based on the current temperature, current humidity, target temperature and the first target humidity.

[0080] Specifically, the steering wheel module compares the current temperature with the target temperature, and compares the current humidity with the first target humidity. If the current temperature does not reach the target temperature and the current humidity does not reach the first target humidity, heating continues; if the current temperature does not reach the target temperature, but the current humidity reaches the first target humidity, heating is stopped, that is, step 304 is executed; if the current temperature reaches the target temperature, heating is stopped regardless of whether the current humidity reaches the first target humidity, that is, step 312 is executed.

[0081] Step 304: If the current temperature does not reach the target temperature and the current humidity reaches the first target humidity, the steering wheel module controls the heater to stop heating the steering wheel.

[0082] Since the driver's hand sweat has wet the steering wheel, and the hand sweat may cause the driver's hands to slip and thus cause a safety accident, after finding that the current humidity has reached the first target humidity, it is necessary to control the air conditioning module to blow air toward the steering wheel to dry the driver's hand sweat, that is, execute steps 305-307.

[0083] Step 305: The steering wheel module sends a blowing request to the gateway.

[0084] The steering wheel module can send a blowing request to the gateway via the first CAN bus.

[0085] Step 306: The gateway sends a blowing instruction to the air conditioning module according to the blowing request.

[0086] After receiving the blowing request through the first CAN bus, the gateway generates a blowing instruction and sends the blowing instruction to the air conditioning module through the second CAN bus.

[0087] When generating a blowing instruction, the gateway can obtain the preset blowing angle, wind force level and cooling temperature, and generate a blowing instruction carrying the blowing angle, wind force level and cooling temperature; or, the gateway can generate a corresponding blowing instruction according to a preset blowing mode, in which the blowing angle, wind force level and cooling temperature are set. Among them, the blowing angle is used to instruct the air conditioning module to blow air to the position where the steering wheel is located, and the wind force level is used to indicate the wind force of the air conditioning module; the cooling temperature is used to indicate the cooling temperature of the air conditioning module, and the cooling temperature is usually lower than the target temperature to achieve the purpose of cooling.

[0088] Step 307: The air conditioning module blows air toward the hand grip area of ​​the steering wheel according to the blowing instruction.

[0089] Specifically, the air conditioning module blows air to the hand grip area of ​​the steering wheel according to the blowing instruction, which may include:

[0090] (1) When the blowing instruction includes a blowing angle, a wind force level, and a cooling temperature, the air conditioning module blows air toward the hand grip area of ​​the steering wheel according to the blowing angle, the wind force level, and the cooling temperature.

[0091] (2) The air conditioning module determines a blowing mode corresponding to the blowing instruction, obtains a preset blowing angle, wind force level, and cooling temperature from the blowing mode, and blows air toward the hand grip area of ​​the steering wheel according to the blowing angle, wind force level, and cooling temperature.

[0092] For example, if the cooling temperature is 21° and the wind force level is level 3, the air conditioning module will blow 21° level 3 wind to the hand grip area in the steering wheel.

[0093] The air conditioning module can start timing when the air blowing starts, and stop blowing when the timing reaches a preset time; or, the air conditioning module can monitor the humidity of the hand holding area of ​​the steering wheel through the steering wheel module, and determine whether to stop blowing according to the humidity, that is, execute steps 308-311.

[0094] Step 308: The steering wheel module controls the humidity sensor to collect the current humidity of the hand grip area of ​​the steering wheel in real time.

[0095] The steering wheel module can collect the current humidity in real time and compare the current humidity with the second target humidity; if the current humidity reaches the second target humidity, the air conditioning module is triggered to stop blowing, that is, step 309 is executed; if the current humidity does not reach the second target humidity, the current humidity continues to be monitored.

[0096] Step 309: If the current humidity reaches the second target humidity, the steering wheel module sends a request to stop blowing to the gateway, and the second target humidity is less than the first target humidity.

[0097] The steering wheel module sends a request to stop blowing air to the gateway through the first CAN bus.

[0098] Step 310: the gateway sends a stop blowing instruction to the air conditioning module according to the stop blowing request.

[0099] After receiving the stop blowing request through the first CAN bus, the gateway generates a stop blowing instruction and sends the stop blowing instruction to the air conditioning module through the second CAN bus.

[0100] Step 311: The air conditioning module stops blowing air to the hand grip area of ​​the steering wheel according to the stop blowing instruction.

[0101] After receiving the stop blowing command through the second CAN bus, the air conditioning module stops blowing air to the hand holding area in the steering wheel.

[0102] Optionally, if the air conditioning module is in a working state before the steering wheel is heated, the air conditioning module returns to its original working state after stopping blowing air to the hand grip area of ​​the steering wheel.

[0103] Step 312: If the current temperature reaches the target temperature, the steering wheel module controls the heater to stop heating the steering wheel.

[0104] To sum up, the steering wheel heating control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, during the process that the steering wheel module controls the heater to heat the steering wheel according to the heating instruction, controls the temperature sensor to collect the current temperature of the hand holding area in the steering wheel in real time, and controls the humidity sensor to collect the current humidity of the hand holding area in the steering wheel in real time. If the current temperature does not reach the target temperature, but the current humidity reaches the first target humidity, it means that the driver's hand sweat has wet the steering wheel. At this time, holding the steering wheel will no longer feel cold, and there is no need to continue heating the steering wheel. In this way, resources can be saved, safety accidents can be avoided, and driving safety can be improved.

[0105] When the current humidity reaches the first target humidity, the air conditioning module is controlled to blow air toward the steering wheel to dry the driver's hand sweat and improve driving safety.

[0106] If the current humidity has not reached the first target humidity, heating will continue until the current temperature reaches the target temperature and then the steering wheel heating will be stopped to ensure that the driver does not feel cold when holding the steering wheel, thereby improving driving comfort.
