[0033] The following will describe the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for illustrating the present invention, not for limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0034] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic illustrations of the basic concept of the present invention, and thus the drawings only show components related to the present invention rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component may be changed arbitrarily, and the component layout may also be more complicated.
[0035] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for dynamically switching the lever function, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method for dynamically switching the lever function includes the following steps:
[0036] In step S101, it is determined whether a shift lever function switching request is received;
[0037] Among them, the shift lever function switching demand refers to the user's need to switch the functions of the left lever and the right lever under the steering wheel.
[0038] It is understandable that the shift lever function switching requirement is triggered by the user touching a corresponding button on the display screen, for example, the user generates the shift lever function switching requirement through a related switching program on the display screen.
[0039] In step S102, if a shift lever function switching requirement is received, the shift lever to be switched and the target lever function of the shift lever to be switched are determined according to the shift lever function switching requirement;
[0040] The shift lever to be switched is the shift lever that the user hopes to achieve the required function, and the target shift lever function is the function that the user expects the shift lever to achieve. In some embodiments, the target shift lever function is a gear function, a turn signal function, or a wiper function.
[0041] Specifically, after receiving the shift lever function switching request, the embodiment of the present application can determine the user's actual demand by analyzing the shift lever function switching demand. For example, the user's shift lever function switching demand is that the function of the left lever is the shift function, that is, it is determined that the shift lever to be switched is the left lever, and the target lever function is the shift function.
[0042] In step S103, the shift lever function of the shift lever to be switched is switched to the target shift lever function, and a switching completion reminder is given after the switching is completed.
[0043] Among them, the reminder information to the user can be broadcasted through voice in the car, or can be displayed accordingly on the display screen.
[0044] For example, after determining in step S102 that the shift lever to be switched is the left lever and the target lever function is the shift function, the embodiment of the present application can switch the function of the left lever to the shift function, and after determining that the switching is completed, can control the shift lever to be switched to display the target lever function. In other words, the functions currently provided by the left lever and the right lever can be displayed to the user through the display screen (such as Figure 2 It should be noted that the display content in the lever display screen 201 can be displayed according to the actual function of the lever. For example, if the current lever state is the hand-gear function, the lever display screen 201 displays the gear information-P / N. For another example, if the current lever state is the turn signal turn signal, the lever display screen 201 displays the turn signal state-Auto / Off. For another example, if the current lever state is the wiper function, the lever display screen 201 displays the wiper state.
[0045] The following further describes how to switch the shift lever function of the shift lever to be switched to the target shift lever function.
[0046] Specifically, when the user needs to switch the gear lever, the relevant switching program starts to execute by touching the corresponding button on the display screen. At this time, the Android side sends a signal to the signal forwarding program through the native program. After receiving the signal, the signal forwarding program controls the Ethernet signal to be sent to some control units, such as TCU and BCM, to implement the function of switching the gear lever, and save the switching status at the same time. The Android side returns a signal of success or failure to the left and right lever instrument program side. The instrument side re-updates the information, displays the current information of the left and right levers, and prompts the user whether the current switch is successful or failed.
[0047] Among them, the control unit mainly includes BCM and TCU. BCM is an indispensable core component in modern cars, mainly used to control and manage various electrical systems and functions of the vehicle. TCU is the core component in the automatic transmission system of modern cars, mainly responsible for realizing automatic speed control, making the driving process simpler.
[0048] In order to enable relevant technical personnel in the field to better understand the method of dynamically switching the lever function of the present invention, the following will be combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 The embodiments are described in detail. Figure 3 It is a structural schematic diagram of the method for dynamically switching the lever function of the present invention. Figure 4 The figure is a specific flow chart of the method for dynamically switching the lever function of the present invention.
[0049] like Figure 3 As shown, the method for dynamically switching the lever function mainly includes an Android program, a signal forwarding program, a BCM and a TCU. Specifically, the Android program is mainly used to display the UI effect of the interface switching, and the user sends signals to the signal forwarding program by touching the buttons. The intermediate program controls the Ethernet signal to be sent specifically to the control units, such as the BCM and TCU, to control the switching of the left and right gear lever functions and the information synchronization of the BCM and TCU. When the signal forwarding program receives the Android test signal, it needs to return a signal to the Android test to indicate whether the setting is successful to prompt the user and update the instrument display program of the lever.
[0050] Further, if Figure 4 As shown, the method for dynamically switching the lever function of this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0051] In step S401, the user clicks on the screen interface to switch the left and right lever functions.
[0052] In step S402, the Android device sends a signal to the signal forwarding program through the native program. The signal forwarding program saves the switching state and controls the signals of the left and right levers to be sent to the corresponding control units to realize the dynamic switching function.
[0053] In step S403, after the signal forwarding program successfully saves the status, it needs to return a signal of switching success or failure to the left and right lever instrument program test. The instrument test needs to re-update the information to display the current left function of the lever (such as gear information-P / N or turn signal status-Auto / Off) and the right function (such as gear information-P / N or turn signal status-Auto / Off).
[0054] In step S404, after the signal forwarding program successfully saves the status, it needs to synchronously return a signal of switching success or failure to the Android side to prompt the user whether the current switching is successful or failed.
[0055] Furthermore, after receiving the shift lever function switching requirement, the method further includes: obtaining the current lever function of the shift lever to be switched and the target shift lever currently executing the target lever function; and switching the lever function of the target shift lever to the current lever function.
[0056] As a possible implementation method, for example, the current left lever is the shift lever to be switched, and the functions that can be realized are the turn signal and the lighting lamp, and the right lever is the target lever, and the functions that can be realized are the shift and the wiper. After receiving the shift lever function switching requirement, the embodiment of the present application can determine the user's actual requirement by parsing the shift lever function switching requirement. For example, the user's shift lever function switching requirement is that the functions of the left lever are the shift and the wiper function, that is, it is determined that the shift lever to be switched is the left lever, and the target lever function is the shift and the wiper function.
[0057] Furthermore, after the shift lever function of the shift lever to be switched is switched to the target shift lever function, it also includes: judging whether a first completion signal sent by the transmission control unit based on the shift lever function switching requirement and a second completion signal sent by the body control unit based on the shift lever function switching requirement are received; if the first completion signal and the second completion signal are received, it is determined that the switching is completed.
[0058] It should be understood that the transmission and overall vehicle body control are the key to vehicle driving safety. If the transmission does not receive the gear lever function switching command, it may cause vehicle power damage, transmission damage and endanger life. If the body controller does not receive the gear lever function switching command, it may cause the vehicle driving direction to lose control, which may also cause loss of life and property. Therefore, it is necessary to double confirm whether the transmission and body controller receive the first signal and the second signal. Only when the transmission and the overall vehicle body controller jointly receive the signal of the gear lever function switching request can the switching be determined to be complete.
[0059] The method for dynamically switching the function of the lever provided in an embodiment of the present invention can cater to the user's living habits. The user touches the display screen and sends a signal to the control unit through a signal forwarding program. The function of the lever is determined according to personal needs, thereby realizing dynamic control of switching the function of the left and right levers under the steering wheel. This solves the problem that the current lever is fixedly placed and cannot be dynamically adjusted to meet the usage habits of all users, thereby improving the user's driving experience.
[0060] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a device for dynamically switching the lever function. Figure 5 FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a device for dynamically switching the lever function of the present invention. Figure 5 As shown, the device 10 for dynamically switching the lever function includes: a judgment module 100 , a checking module 200 and a control module 300 .
[0061] The judging module 100 is used to judge whether a shift lever function switching requirement is received. The checking module 200 is used to determine the shift lever to be switched and the target lever function of the shift lever to be switched according to the shift lever function switching requirement after receiving the shift lever function switching requirement. The control module 300 is used to switch the lever function of the shift lever to be switched to the target lever function, and to issue a switching completion reminder after the switching is completed.
[0062] In this embodiment, after receiving the shift lever function switching request, the checking module 200 is further used to: obtain the current lever function of the shift lever to be switched and the target shift lever currently executing the target lever function; and switch the lever function of the target shift lever to the current lever function.
[0063] In this embodiment, after the shift lever function of the shift lever to be switched is switched to the target shift lever function, the judgment module 100 is also used to: judge whether a first completion signal sent by the transmission control unit based on the shift lever function switching requirement and a second completion signal sent by the body control unit based on the shift lever function switching requirement are received; if the first completion signal and the second completion signal are received, it is determined that the switching is completed.
[0064] In this embodiment, after determining that the switching is completed, the control module 300 is further used to: control the shift lever to be switched to display the target lever function.
[0065] In this embodiment, the device for dynamically switching the lever function further includes: the target lever function is a gear function or a turn signal function or a wiper function.
[0066] It should be noted that the above explanation of the embodiment of the method for dynamically switching the lever function is also applicable to the device for dynamically switching the lever function of this embodiment, which will not be described in detail here.
[0067] The device for dynamically switching the function of the lever provided in an embodiment of the present invention can cater to the user's living habits. The user touches the display screen and sends a signal to the control unit through a signal forwarding program. The function of the lever is determined according to personal needs, thereby realizing dynamic control of switching the function of the left and right levers under the steering wheel. This solves the problem that the current lever is fixedly placed and cannot be dynamically adjusted to meet the usage habits of all users, thereby improving the user's driving experience.

[0070] When the processor 602 executes the program, the method for dynamically switching the lever function provided in the above embodiment is implemented.
[0071] Furthermore, the vehicle further includes: a communication interface 603, which is used for communication between the memory 601 and the processor 602.

The memory 601 may include a high-speed RAM memory, and may also include a non-volatile memory (non-volatile memory), such as at least one disk memory.
[0072] If the memory 601, the processor 602 and the communication interface 603 are implemented independently, the communication interface 603, the memory 601 and the processor 602 can be connected to each other through a bus and communicate with each other.

The bus can be divided into an address bus, a data bus, a control bus, etc. For ease of representation, Figure 6 Only one thick line is used in the diagram, but this does not mean that there is only one bus or only one type of bus.
