[0062] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions from beginning to end. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the embodiments of the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application.

[0063] See also Figure 1 The vehicle speaker control method in the embodiment of the present application is used in a vehicle-mounted system, and the method specifically comprises the following steps:

[0064] 011: In response to an unlocking operation performed by a user on a target speaker, receiving a first signal,

[0065] wherein the unlocking operation is performed on a locking device in a target installation area corresponding to the target speaker, and the first signal is fed back by the locking device;

[0066] 012: according to the first signal, cutting off the electrical connection between the target speaker and the vehicle, so that the target speaker works by being powered by its own power supply;

[0067] 013: Control the target speaker to be separated from the target installation area according to the first signal, so that the target speaker can be used as an independent speaker and completely separated from the vehicle.

[0068] The vehicle speaker control device in the embodiment of the present application can implement the above-mentioned vehicle speaker control method. Specifically, the vehicle speaker control device includes a signal transmission module and an action execution module, wherein the signal transmission module is used to respond to the unlocking operation performed by the user on the target speaker and receive a first signal, and the action execution module is used to cut off the electrical connection between the target speaker and the vehicle according to the first signal, so that the target speaker can work through its own power supply, and is used to control the target speaker to leave the target installation area according to the first signal, so that the target speaker can be used as an independent speaker and completely separated from the vehicle.

[0069] Specifically, the vehicle speaker control method in the implementation mode of the present application is executed by the vehicle's onboard system. The main purpose of the above method is that when a user performs an operation on the vehicle with the intention of separating the target speaker from the vehicle for independent use, the onboard system controls the vehicle to cut off the connection between the vehicle and the target speaker and controls the target speaker to pop up for the user to remove it. Even if the target speaker is currently working, the above method can be used to hot-plug the target speaker.

[0070] In the above embodiment, when the user wants to separate the target speaker from the vehicle for independent use, the user can find a locking device in the vehicle cabin for fixing the target speaker to the target installation area. The above locking device can generally be a locking motor or other electronic components that can achieve similar effects. At the same time, the above locking device is electrically connected to the vehicle. The vehicle can receive feedback signals from the locking device through the vehicle-mounted system, and can also control the operation of the locking device by sending signals, thereby achieving the detachment and locking of the target speaker.

[0071] In order to facilitate the user to hot-plug the target speaker, exemplarily, the user can perform an unlocking operation on the above-mentioned locking device, and the locking device will generate a corresponding first signal in response to the unlocking operation, and send the above-mentioned first signal to the vehicle system. When the target speaker acts as a speaker of the vehicle, considering the convenience of electricity use, it is generally necessary to power the target speaker through the vehicle. Therefore, in order to achieve the hot plugging of the target speaker, exemplarily, in response to the above-mentioned first signal, the vehicle system sends a corresponding control instruction to the target speaker to disconnect the electrical connection between the target speaker and the vehicle system. Generally, electrical connection is divided into two levels: physical connection and circuit disconnection. The disconnection of the above-mentioned electrical connection relationship generally means that the target speaker is disconnected from the vehicle at the level of circuit disconnection, and the disconnection of the physical connection can be achieved by running the locking motor to remove the target speaker from the target installation position. When the target speaker is disconnected from the vehicle, it can use its own battery or other power supply device to achieve self-power supply.

[0072] Furthermore, after receiving the above-mentioned first signal, the vehicle-mounted system learns that the user currently needs to unplug the corresponding target speaker. On this basis, the vehicle-mounted system uses the above-mentioned first signal as a data basis, and based on the connection relationship between the target speaker and the locking device, sends instructions to the target speaker and the locking device to disengage the target speaker from the target installation position. Furthermore, the operation of the locking device can also be used to push the target speaker away from the target installation position, on the one hand, so that the electrical connection between the target speaker and the vehicle is directly disconnected at the physical connection level, and on the other hand, the target speaker is completely separated from the vehicle in space, which is convenient for the user to remove the target speaker.

[0073] In this way, the present application sets a detachable target speaker that is used in conjunction with the vehicle, and can completely separate the target speaker from the vehicle by triggering the user's operation when the user needs to use the target speaker as an independent speaker. In this way, the target speaker is connected to the vehicle when driving to act as a vehicle speaker, and in the home or camping scenario, the user can disassemble it from the vehicle to become an independent speaker device, making it convenient for the user to use the same set of equipment to listen to audio content in different scenarios.

[0074] In some embodiments, step 011 includes:

[0075] In response to a user pressing an unlock button on the locking device, receiving a first signal,

[0076] The first signal is configured to indicate that the user intends to unplug the target speaker from the vehicle.

[0077] In some embodiments, the signal transmission module is further configured to receive a first signal in response to a user pressing an unlock button on the locking device.

[0078] Specifically, on the basis of the above-mentioned implementation, in order to facilitate the user to perform the unlocking operation, illustratively, an unlocking button is provided at the locking device, and the user can directly perform the unlocking operation in the above-mentioned implementation by pressing the unlocking button at the target installation area. When the user presses the unlocking button, the locking device responds to the above-mentioned pressing action and feeds back the above-mentioned first signal to the vehicle-mounted system. When the vehicle-mounted system receives the above-mentioned first signal, it is informed that the current user needs to separate the target speaker from the vehicle, and thus sends instructions to the locking device and the target speaker based on the first signal, so as to separate the target speaker from the target installation position.

[0079] Thus, the present application provides a specific way for a user to trigger the separation process between a target speaker and a vehicle.

[0080] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, step 013 includes:

[0081] 0131: according to the first signal, cutting off the audio connection between the target speaker and the vehicle system;

[0082] 0132: According to the first signal, the communication connection between the target speaker and the vehicle system is cut off.

[0083] In some embodiments, the action execution module is further used to cut off the audio connection between the target speaker and the vehicle system according to the first signal, and is used to cut off the communication connection between the target speaker and the vehicle system according to the first signal.

[0084] Specifically, based on the above implementation, when the vehicle system receives the first signal and sends a control instruction to the locking device and the target speaker based on the first signal, the connection between the target speaker and the vehicle is cut off, thereby achieving the separation between the target speaker and the vehicle.

[0085] Exemplarily, regarding the disconnection of the above-mentioned connection relationship, first, when the target speaker acts as a speaker of the vehicle, it needs to be realized through the audio connection relationship between the vehicle-mounted system. Therefore, in order to realize the unplugging of the target speaker, exemplarily, the vehicle-mounted system sends a control instruction to the target speaker to disconnect the audio connection relationship between the target speaker and the vehicle-mounted system. Generally, audio connection is divided into two levels: physical connection and software support. The disconnection of the above-mentioned audio connection relationship generally means the disconnection between the target speaker and the vehicle-mounted system at the software support level, and the disconnection of the physical connection can be realized by the operation of the locking motor to push the target speaker away from the target installation position.

[0086] Secondly, when the target speaker acts as a speaker of the vehicle, in some application scenarios, it needs to obtain the audio file that needs to be output currently through the communication connection relationship with the vehicle-mounted system. Therefore, in order to unplug the target speaker, illustratively, the vehicle-mounted system sends a control instruction to the target speaker to disconnect the communication connection relationship between the target speaker and the vehicle-mounted system. Generally, the communication connection is divided into two levels: physical connection and software support. The disconnection of the above-mentioned communication connection relationship generally means the disconnection between the target speaker and the vehicle-mounted system at the software support level, and the disconnection of the physical connection can be achieved by operating the locking motor to push the target speaker away from the target installation position.

[0087] It should be noted that the execution order of steps 0121 and 0122 can be adjusted according to actual conditions. Figure 2 This is just a synopsis of the process.

[0088] In this way, the present application also provides a case where when the user performs a corresponding operation to trigger the separation process between the target speaker and the vehicle, the vehicle-mounted system controls the connection disconnection action that needs to be performed before the target speaker is actually separated from the vehicle, thereby realizing hot unplugging between the target speaker and the vehicle.

[0089] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, step 013 further includes:

[0090] 0133: Control the target speaker to be separated from the vehicle from the corresponding target installation position;

[0091] 0134: Control the indicator light at the unlocking button of the target speaker to operate in a first preset manner to indicate that the target speaker is being removed from the vehicle from the target installation position.

[0092] Furthermore, step 013 also includes:

[0093] 0135: Control the indicator light at the unlocking button of the target speaker to operate in a second preset mode to indicate that the target speaker has been detached from the vehicle from the target installation position.

[0094] In some embodiments, the action execution module is also used to control the target speaker to detach from the vehicle from the corresponding target installation position, and to control the indicator light at the unlock button of the target speaker to operate in a first preset manner to indicate that the target speaker is detaching from the vehicle from the target installation position, and to control the indicator light at the unlock button of the target speaker to operate in a second preset manner to indicate that the target speaker has detached from the vehicle from the target installation position.

[0095] Specifically, based on the above implementation, when the audio, communication and electrical connection between the vehicle and the target speaker are disconnected at the software support or circuit connection level, in order to achieve the detachment of the target speaker, the physical connection between the target speaker and the vehicle also needs to be disconnected.

[0096] Therefore, for example, after the vehicle-mounted system sends a control instruction to the locking device according to the first signal, the locking device starts to work under the control of the control instruction, and pushes the target speaker away from the corresponding target installation position. Since the target speaker and the vehicle are generally connected by plugging, and the physical connection level of the above-mentioned audio connection, communication connection and electrical connection are all realized by the above-mentioned plugging method, after the target speaker is pushed away from the target installation position, the above-mentioned plugging relationship is disconnected due to the change of the position of the target speaker, and then the physical connection level of the above-mentioned audio connection, communication connection and electrical connection is also disconnected.

[0097] Furthermore, in order to provide timely feedback for the user's unlocking operation, illustratively, a status indicator light is provided at the unlock button on the locking device. When the user presses the unlock button and the locking device is controlled by the vehicle-mounted system to push the target speaker away from the target installation position, the status indicator light will work according to a preset method to prompt the user that the action of pushing the target speaker away is currently being performed. For example, in some examples, the above-mentioned status indicator light will flash at a preset frequency when the user presses the unlock button and the locking device is controlled by the vehicle-mounted system to push the target speaker away from the target installation position, so as to prompt the user that the action of pushing the target speaker away is currently being performed.

[0098] Furthermore, when the locking device is controlled by the vehicle-mounted system to push the target speaker away from the target installation position, the status indicator light will work according to a preset method to prompt the user that the action of pushing the target speaker away has been completed. For example, in some examples, when the locking device is controlled by the vehicle-mounted system to push the target speaker away from the target installation position, the above-mentioned status indicator light remains on for a preset time period to prompt the user that the action of pushing the target speaker away has been completed. The above-mentioned preset time period can be adjusted according to actual conditions, and this application does not make specific limitations.

[0099] Thus, the present application also provides a specific process for the vehicle-mounted system to control the actual separation of the target speaker from the vehicle, and can prompt the user through an indicator light that the current target speaker is being separated from the vehicle. In addition, the present application can also prompt the user through an indicator light that the target speaker has been separated from the vehicle, thereby prompting the user to remove the speaker to use it as an independent speaker.

[0100] See also Figure 4 The vehicle speaker control method in the embodiment of the present application is used in a vehicle-mounted system, and the method specifically comprises the following steps:

[0101] 021: In response to an installation operation performed by a user on a target speaker, receiving a second signal,

[0102] The second signal is fed back by a locking device in a target installation area corresponding to the target speaker;

[0103] 022: Control the locking device to connect and lock the target speaker to the vehicle, so that the target speaker becomes one of the speakers of the vehicle.

[0104] The signal transmission module in the implementation manner of the present application is also used to receive a second signal in response to the installation operation performed by the user on the target speaker, and the action execution module is also used to control the locking device to connect and lock the target speaker to the vehicle so that the target speaker becomes one of the speakers of the vehicle.

[0105] Specifically, the vehicle speaker control method in the embodiment of the present application is executed by the vehicle-mounted system of the vehicle. The main purpose of the above method is to control the vehicle-mounted system to re-establish the connection relationship between the vehicle and the target speaker and re-fix the target speaker to the corresponding target installation position when the user installs the currently independently used speaker back to the vehicle. Even if the target speaker is currently working independently, the hot insertion of the target speaker can be achieved through the above method.

[0106] In the above embodiment, when the user wants to reinstall the target speaker on the vehicle for use, the user can find a locking device in the vehicle cabin for fixing the target speaker to the target installation area. The above locking device can generally be a locking motor or other electronic components that can achieve similar effects. At the same time, the above locking device is electrically connected to the vehicle. The vehicle can receive feedback signals from the locking device through the vehicle-mounted system, and can also control the operation of the locking device by sending signals, thereby achieving the disengagement and locking of the target speaker.

[0107] In order to facilitate the user to hot-plug the target speaker, illustratively, the user can install the target speaker in the corresponding target installation area. Since there will be a slight position interference between the target speaker and the locking device, and the user can also perform a predetermined operation on the locking device, the locking device will generate a corresponding second signal based on the above situation and send the second signal to the vehicle-mounted system. After receiving the second signal, the vehicle-mounted system is informed that the user currently needs to reinstall the target speaker on the vehicle. On this basis, the vehicle-mounted system uses the second signal as the data basis and sends instructions to the locking device based on the connection relationship with the locking device to lock the target speaker installation to the target installation position, and then re-establish the connection relationship between the vehicle and the target speaker, thereby achieving reconnection between the target speaker and the vehicle.

[0108] In this way, the present application sets a detachable target speaker that is used in conjunction with the vehicle, and when the user needs to use the target speaker as a vehicle speaker, the target speaker can be installed in the corresponding target installation position on the vehicle as a trigger to achieve the re-integration between the target speaker and the vehicle. In this way, the target speaker is connected to the vehicle when driving to act as a vehicle speaker, and in the home or camping scenario, the user can disassemble it from the vehicle to become an independent speaker device, making it convenient for the user to use the same set of equipment to listen to audio content in different scenarios.

[0109] In some embodiments, step 021 includes:

[0110] In response to an operation of a user installing the target speaker into the target installation area and pressing a locking button on the locking device, a second signal is received.

[0111] In addition, step 021 also includes:

[0112] In response to the user installing the target speaker into the target installation area to trigger the micro switch on the locking device, a second signal is received.

[0113] In certain embodiments, the signal transmission module is also used to receive a second signal in response to the user installing the target speaker into the target installation area and pressing a locking button on the locking device, and is used to receive a second signal in response to the user installing the target speaker into the target installation area to trigger a micro switch on the locking device.

[0114] Specifically, based on the above implementation, for the triggering method of the second signal, in some examples, a locking button is provided at the locking device, and the user can perform the installation operation in the above implementation by pressing the locking button after placing the target speaker in the target installation area. When the user presses the locking button, the locking device responds to the pressing action and feeds back the second signal to the vehicle-mounted system. When the vehicle-mounted system receives the second signal, it is informed that the current user needs to reinstall the target speaker on the vehicle, and thus sends an instruction to the locking device based on the second signal to drive the locking device to fix the target speaker in the target installation area to complete the installation action.

[0115] In addition, in some examples, a micro switch is provided on the locking device. When the user installs the target speaker in the target installation area, the slight position interference between the target speaker and the locking device will trigger the micro switch. When the micro switch is triggered, the locking device responds to the triggering and feeds back the second signal to the vehicle system. When the vehicle system receives the second signal, it is informed that the current user needs to reinstall the target speaker on the vehicle, and sends instructions to the locking device based on the second signal to drive the locking device to fix the target speaker in the target installation area to complete the installation action. The use of a micro switch can simplify user operations. The user only needs to place the target speaker in the target installation area without manually pressing the locking button.

[0116] Thus, the present application provides a specific method for a user to trigger the re-combination process between a target speaker and a vehicle. In addition, the present application also provides a specific method for triggering the re-combination process between a target speaker and a vehicle when a micro switch is provided in the target installation area.

[0117] See also Figure 5 In some embodiments, step 022 includes:

[0118] 0221: Control the target speaker to be locked at the corresponding target installation position.

[0119] Furthermore, step 022 also includes:

[0120] 0222: Establishing an audio connection between the target speaker and the vehicle system according to the second signal;

[0121] 0223: Establishing a communication connection between the target speaker and the vehicle system according to the second signal;

[0122] 0224: According to the second signal, an electrical connection is established between the target speaker and the vehicle system, so that the target speaker is powered by the power supply of the vehicle.

[0123] In some embodiments, the action execution module is also used to control the target speaker to be locked at the corresponding target installation position, and to establish an audio connection between the target speaker and the vehicle-mounted system according to the second signal, and to establish a communication connection between the target speaker and the vehicle-mounted system according to the second signal, and to establish an electrical connection between the target speaker and the vehicle-mounted system according to the second signal, so that the target speaker can operate through the power supply of the vehicle.

[0124] Specifically, based on the above-mentioned implementation, exemplarily, when the locking device receives the control instruction of the vehicle-mounted system in response to the feedback of the second signal, the locking device is controlled to operate, thereby fastening and locking the target speaker at the target installation position. Since the target speaker and the vehicle are generally connected by plugging, and the physical connection level of the audio connection, communication connection and electrical connection between the target speaker and the vehicle are all realized by the above-mentioned plugging, then when the target speaker is fastened and locked at the target installation position, the above-mentioned plugging relationship is re-established due to the change in the position relationship of the target speaker, and thus the above-mentioned physical connection level of the audio connection, communication connection and electrical connection is also re-established.

[0125] Then, when the above-mentioned audio connection, communication connection and electrical connection are re-established at the physical connection level, in order to achieve the reinstallation between the target speaker and the vehicle, it is also necessary to re-establish the above-mentioned audio connection, communication connection and electrical connection at the software support or circuit disconnection level. In order to achieve the insertion of the target speaker, illustratively, the vehicle-mounted system sends a control instruction to the target speaker, establishes an audio connection relationship and a communication connection relationship between the target speaker and the vehicle-mounted system at the software support level, and also establishes an electrical connection relationship between the target speaker and the vehicle-mounted system at the circuit disconnection level. In this way, the target speaker restores the audio connection relationship with the vehicle, and can obtain the audio file that currently needs to be output through the communication connection relationship with the vehicle-mounted system in some application scenarios, and the vehicle resumes supplying power to the target speaker.

[0126] It should be noted that the execution order of steps 0222, 0223, and 0224 can be adjusted according to actual conditions. Figure 5 This is just a synopsis of the process.

[0127] In this way, the present application also provides a case where when the user performs a corresponding operation to trigger the re-integration process between the target speaker and the vehicle, the vehicle-mounted system controls the connection establishment action that needs to be performed before the target speaker and the vehicle are re-integrated, thereby realizing hot insertion between the target speaker and the vehicle.

[0135] The power amplifier component is the main functional component of the speaker. Whether it acts as a vehicle speaker or an independent speaker, the power amplifier component is used to directly output audio content to the outside.

[0136] The function of the plug assembly is to establish a physical connection between the speaker and the vehicle, thereby providing a basis for audio connection, communication connection and electrical connection. In order to ensure the stability of the connection between the speaker and the vehicle, and at the same time be able to accommodate multiple connection lines such as audio connection, communication connection and electrical connection, illustratively, the above-mentioned plug assembly adopts an aviation plug. The specific specifications of the aviation plug can be selected according to actual conditions, and this application does not make specific restrictions. Correspondingly, an aviation socket for use with the above-mentioned aviation plug is correspondingly provided in the target installation area on the vehicle. When the speaker is fastened and locked in the target installation area, the above-mentioned aviation plug is fastened and plugged into the above-mentioned aviation socket, thereby establishing a physical connection between the speaker and the vehicle.

[0137] In some embodiments, the speaker further includes a communication component configured to obtain current audio to be output when the speaker is detached from the vehicle.

[0138] Specifically, when the above-mentioned speaker is separated from the vehicle and acts as an independent speaker, in order to output different audio content in accordance with the needs of the user, the speaker is exemplarily provided with a communication component for obtaining the audio content to be output from an external device.
