Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of automobile safety technology, and in particular relates to a vehicle flooding escape system and a vehicle control method. Background Art
[0002] With the popularity of vehicles, accidents involving casualties caused by vehicles falling into water occur from time to time. Since the front part of most vehicles is the engine compartment, which is heavier than other parts, most vehicles will tilt forward when they fall into water. For small passenger cars, because small passenger cars are generally well sealed, the vehicle will float on the water for a period of time after falling into the water. However, if it is not salvaged for a long time, the vehicle will sink to the bottom of the water. Although there are many tutorials to teach people how to escape after the vehicle falls into the water, most drivers cannot effectively implement the escape plan due to the tension and panic after falling into the water, especially when there are too many people in the car, and they cannot effectively escape, resulting in the death of people. Moreover, when the car encounters floods or is parked in an underground garage and encounters rainwater backflow, the car will be submerged in water for a long time, which will cause the electronic components and engine of the vehicle to be scrapped, and the maintenance cost is high, causing great economic losses to the car owner.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0023] The following detailed description is an exemplary description, which is intended to provide further detailed description of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical terms used in the present invention have the same meaning as those generally understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs. The terms used in the present invention are only for describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present invention.
[0024] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of application scenarios of the present application embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle escape system and vehicle control method provided in the embodiment of the present application are applied to a vehicle such as a small car 1. In the embodiment of the present application, a plurality of floating airbags 11 are installed around the bottom of the vehicle, and a plurality of floating airbags 21 are installed around the top of the vehicle. In this way, when the vehicle falls into the water, the floating airbags at the bottom or the top of the vehicle are opened to make the vehicle float on the water, thereby temporarily avoiding danger when falling into the water and obtaining a longer rescue waiting time or escape time.
[0025] For example, Figure 2 As shown, when the vehicle falls into the water with the bottom facing, the floating airbag 11 at the bottom of the vehicle can be opened to make the vehicle float on the water.
[0026] Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the vehicle escape system according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the vehicle escape system 100 of the embodiment of the present application includes a first airbag assembly 101 , a second airbag assembly 102 , a control unit 103 and a switch assembly 104 .
[0027] The first airbag assembly 101 includes a plurality of floating airbags 11 located at the bottom of the vehicle. The number and position of the floating airbags 11 can be reasonably arranged as needed, and are not specifically limited here.
[0028] For example, Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, a plurality of floating airbags 11 are installed on the chassis steel beam 10 at the bottom of the vehicle. For example, three floating airbags 11 are installed at the front of the chassis steel beam 10, respectively located at the left and right sides and the middle position of the front of the chassis steel beam 10. For another example, two floating airbags 11 are installed at the middle of the chassis steel beam 10, respectively located at the left and right sides of the middle of the chassis steel beam 10. For another example, three floating airbags 11 are installed at the rear of the chassis steel beam 10, respectively located at the left and right sides and the middle position of the rear of the bottom steel beam 10. Of course Figure 4 The installation position and number of the floating airbags 11 shown are exemplary. Those skilled in the art can select other suitable positions to install a suitable number of floating airbags 11 as needed. Figure 4 The number of floating airbags 11 shown is small, and it can also be compared Figure 4 The number of flotation airbags 11 shown is greater.
[0029] For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the floating airbag 11 can be installed on a structural member of the vehicle such as the chassis steel beam 10 by means of fasteners such as screws.
[0030] The second airbag assembly 102 includes a plurality of floating airbags 21 located on the top of the vehicle. The number and position of the floating airbags 21 can be reasonably arranged as needed, and are not specifically limited here.
[0031] For example, Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present application, a plurality of floating airbags 21 are installed on the roof steel frame 20 on the top of the vehicle. For example, two floating airbags 21 are installed at the front of the roof steel frame 20, respectively located at the left and right sides of the front of the roof steel frame 20. For another example, two floating airbags 21 are installed at the middle of the roof steel frame 20, respectively located at the left and right sides of the middle of the roof steel frame 20. For another example, two floating airbags 21 are installed at the rear of the roof steel frame 20, respectively located at the left and right sides of the rear of the roof steel frame 20. Of course Figure 5 The installation position and number of the floating airbags 21 shown are exemplary. Those skilled in the art can select other suitable positions to install a suitable number of floating airbags 21 as needed. Figure 5 The number of floating airbags 21 shown is small, and it can also be compared Figure 5 The number of flotation bladders 21 shown is greater.
[0032] For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the floating airbag 21 can be installed on a structural member of the vehicle such as the roof steel frame 20 by means of fasteners such as screws.
[0033] The control unit 103 is connected to the first airbag assembly 101 and the second airbag assembly 102 in communication, and is used to control the opening of the first airbag assembly 101 and the second airbag assembly 102. The control unit 103 can be implemented as a processor and a control program running on the processor. Exemplarily, the control unit 103 is connected to the control unit 103 via a CAN bus, that is, each floating airbag (floating airbag 11 and floating airbag 21) is connected to the control unit 103 via a CAN bus. In this way, the control unit 103 can send an opening instruction to the corresponding floating airbag via the CAN bus, thereby opening the corresponding floating airbag.
[0034] The switch assembly 104 is connected to the control unit, and is used to receive the user's operation and transmit the user's operation to the control unit 103, so that the control unit 103 opens the corresponding floating airbag according to the user's operation.
[0035] For example, in one embodiment of the present application, the switch assembly 104 can be implemented as a hard switch, such as an airbag control button arranged in the cockpit, and the corresponding floating airbag can be opened by operating the airbag control button.
[0036] For example, in one embodiment of the present application, the switch component 104 can be implemented as a soft switch, such as a switch unit set on the floating airbag control interface of the central control screen inside the vehicle. The corresponding floating airbag can be opened by operating the switch unit on the floating airbag control interface.
[0037] The control process of the floating airbag or the working principle of the escape system in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: When the vehicle falls into the water accidentally, it will not sink to the bottom of the water in a short time because of its good airtightness. During the floating period, the driver or passenger can use the switch component 104, such as the switch unit on the floating airbag control interface of the central control host, to choose to open the corresponding floating airbag to make the vehicle float on the water.
[0038] For example, in an application scenario of the present application, the vehicle is loaded forward into the water, and only the engine compartment enters the water. The occupants of the vehicle can choose to open the three front floating airbags 11 (e.g. Figure 4 After the vehicle is balanced, the remaining floating air bags 11 at the bottom of the vehicle are opened, so that the vehicle can float steadily on the water.
[0039] For example, in an application scenario of the present application, a vehicle rolls over into water, with the driver's side facing downward and the passenger side facing upward. The occupants of the vehicle can first open the three floating airbags on the top of the driver's side of the vehicle (for example, Figure 5 The three floating airbags 21 on the left side of the middle), when the bottom of the vehicle is facing downward, the bottom floating airbag on the driver's side (for example Figure 4 The vehicle gradually reaches balance by opening the three floating air bags 11 at the top, and finally all the remaining floating air bags at the bottom are opened.
[0040] For example, in an application scenario of the present application, the vehicle rolls over into the water, and the passenger side enters the water. The occupants can first open the three floating airbags on the top of the passenger side (for example, Figure 5 After the vehicle bottom is facing downward, the three floating airbags on the passenger side bottom (e.g. Figure 4 The vehicle gradually reaches balance by opening the three floating air bags 11 at the top, and finally all the remaining floating air bags at the bottom are opened, and finally the vehicle will float steadily on the water.
[0041] For example, in an application scenario of the present application, a vehicle overturns and falls into water, and the occupants of the vehicle can try to open the top floating airbag on the lower side (for example, Figure 5 After the vehicle is turned over, with the bottom facing down and the top facing up, the three floating airbags at the bottom of the vehicle (for example, Figure 4 After the vehicle body reaches a balanced state, the three floating air bags 11 at the top are opened, and finally the vehicle will float steadily on the water.
[0042] It should be understood that the above-mentioned order of opening the floating airbags is only exemplary, and any order can be used as long as it can ultimately make the vehicle float stably on the water. Those skilled in the art can make reasonable settings based on tests and actual conditions.
[0043] In addition, it should be understood that the opening sequence of the floating airbags can enable the corresponding airbags to be opened in sequence according to the corresponding airbag switch units in the case of a person falling into the water. Alternatively, the switch units can be set according to different water-falling scenarios, and the airbags in the scenarios can be opened in sequence by one key through the switch units corresponding to the different scenarios. For example, in the scenario where the vehicle is loaded forward into the water and only the engine compartment enters the water, the airbags can be opened in sequence according to the three floating airbags 11 (for example, the front three floating airbags 11 at the bottom of the vehicle) at the bottom of the vehicle ... Figure 4 The three floating airbags 11 at the top of the vehicle are opened in sequence, and the remaining floating airbags 11 at the bottom of the rear vehicle are opened in sequence.
[0044] Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a vehicle escape system according to another embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 As shown, the vehicle escape system 200 of the embodiment of the present application includes a first airbag assembly 201, a second airbag assembly 202, a control unit 203, a switch assembly 204 and a sensor assembly 205. The first airbag assembly 201, the second airbag assembly 202, the control unit 203 and the switch assembly 204 are similar to the first airbag assembly 101, the second airbag assembly 102, the control unit 103 and the switch assembly 104 described above, and are not described in detail here.
[0045] The sensor assembly 205 is communicatively connected with the control unit 203 for detecting whether the vehicle falls into water, the posture of the vehicle falling into water, etc., and sending the detection result to the control unit 203, so that the control unit 203 controls the opening of the floating airbag according to the detection signal, so that the vehicle floats on the water in a balanced manner.
[0046] In one embodiment of the present application, the sensor assembly 205 includes a liquid level sensor, which can detect whether the vehicle falls into water. When the vehicle falls into water, a signal is transmitted to the control unit 203 to notify the control unit 203 that the vehicle falls into water. Then, when the control unit 203 receives the vehicle falling into water signal, it opens the floating airbag in a preset order, and finally makes the vehicle float on the water in a balanced manner. The opening order of the floating airbag can be set differently according to different falling into water scenes, and refer to the above description for details.
[0047] In one embodiment of the present application, the sensor assembly 205 includes a posture sensor, such as a gyroscope sensor, an acceleration sensor, etc. The posture of the vehicle can be detected by the posture sensor, so that when the vehicle falls into the water, the posture of the vehicle falling into the water can be determined by the posture sensor, and then the control unit 203 opens the floating airbag according to the order of the vehicle falling into the water, and finally makes the vehicle float on the water in a balanced manner. The opening order of the floating airbag can be set differently according to different falling into the water postures, and refer to the above description for details.
[0048] It should be understood that the number and installation positions of the sensors in the sensor 205 are not specifically limited here, and those skilled in the art can arrange them reasonably according to the above requirements, such as arranging liquid level sensors and posture sensors at the front wheel position of the vehicle.
[0049] It should also be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the vehicle escape system 200 may not include the switch assembly 204 , that is, the opening of the floating airbag is automatically controlled by the control unit 203 according to the detection result of the sensor assembly 205 .
[0050] Of course, in other embodiments, in order to avoid the floating airbag being opened due to false detection of the sensor component 205, the control unit 203 can add a user confirmation step before opening the floating airbag. The user confirmation step can be completed through a confirmation button on the central control interface, or through voice notification and response. (In this case, the escape system can also include an audio component, which can reuse the audio component of the vehicle without being set separately).
[0051] Figure 7 A schematic flowchart of a vehicle control method according to an embodiment of the present application.
[0052] like Figure 7 As shown, the vehicle control method of the embodiment of the present application includes: Step S101, receiving a first input from a user, where the first input is used to activate a floating airbag of a vehicle; Step S102, according to the first input of the user, the floating airbags of the vehicle are opened in sequence.
[0053] In step S101, the first input is used for the floating airbag of the vehicle. Exemplarily, the first input may be an input generated by the user operating a physical control button of the floating airbag, or may be an input generated by the user operating a virtual control button of the floating airbag.
[0054] Exemplarily, the first input may include input generated by a single key operation by the user, or may include input generated by multiple key operations by the user.
[0055] In step S102, after receiving the first input from the user, the flotation airbags of the vehicle are sequentially opened according to the first input. In other words, the first input includes information on the opening sequence of the flotation airbags. That is, in different water-falling scenarios, the opening sequence of the flotation airbags corresponding to the first input is different. For the specific sequence, please refer to the above description.

[0057] like Figure 8 As shown, a vehicle control method according to another embodiment of the present application includes: Step S201, obtaining a vehicle falling into water signal; Step S202, obtaining a vehicle posture signal; Step S203, determining the vehicle falling into water posture according to the vehicle posture signal, and sequentially opening the vehicle's floating airbags according to the vehicle falling into water posture.
[0058] In step S201, a vehicle falling into water signal is obtained, for example, by detecting whether the vehicle falls into water through a liquid level sensor, and obtaining a vehicle falling into water signal when the vehicle falls into water. The vehicle falling into water signal may be a signal indicating that the water level reaches a certain position of the vehicle.
[0059] In step S202, after the vehicle falling into water signal is obtained, the vehicle posture signal is obtained through the liquid level sensor and / or the posture sensor. The vehicle posture signal includes information such as the tilt angle of the vehicle and the location where the vehicle falls into water.
[0060] In step S203, the vehicle's water-falling posture is determined according to the vehicle posture signal, and the vehicle's floating airbags are sequentially opened according to the vehicle's water-falling posture. That is, the order of opening the floating airbags corresponding to different water-falling postures is different, and the specific order can be referred to the above description.
