Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the automotive field, and in particular to a vehicle lock control method, system, computer storage medium and automobile. Background Art

[0002] In the automotive industry, whether it is a traditional gasoline car or a new energy car, the battery is the core component of the vehicle's operation and function realization. It plays an irreplaceable key role in the overall performance and daily use of the car. For example, the low-voltage power consumption of most gasoline cars or new energy cars is provided by low-voltage batteries, which maintain the normal operation of some functions of the vehicle during parking or driving, such as door switches, trunk opening, and dashboard power supply. The electric car in the new energy vehicle also includes a high-voltage battery, which can not only drive the vehicle to drive normally, but also replenish the low-voltage battery when the low-voltage battery is exhausted. In some cases, when the low-voltage battery and / or the high-voltage battery of the vehicle are exhausted, the vehicle will have a problem of power shortage. In other cases, when the vehicle battery is in extreme or abnormal conditions, such as a violent collision during driving that causes the vehicle battery line to be disconnected, the vehicle will also have a problem of power shortage. When the vehicle is low in power, due to insufficient power, the normal operation of the vehicle cannot be guaranteed. For example, when the vehicle is low in power, the vehicle may not be able to unlock the vehicle by electronic starting.

[0003] The prior art proposes an emergency jump-start unlocking solution. In the current market, when the vehicle is out of power or the vehicle battery is abnormal and cannot work normally, in the absence of a mechanical key, the solution can set the vehicle to a state that allows it to receive external emergency power supply. After detecting the external emergency power supply signal, the vehicle can be unlocked by the electronic key. However, in the above technical solution, the emphasis is on the macro-functional implementation technical framework of the emergency unlocking function, and no attention is paid to the problems in the implementation of the above technical solution, nor is there a more detailed description of the technical solution.

[0025] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the present application belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0026] The term "and / or" in this article is merely a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone.

[0027] The terms "first" and "second" in the description and claims of the embodiments of the present application are used to distinguish different objects rather than to describe a specific order of objects. For example, a first target object and a second target object are used to distinguish different target objects rather than to describe a specific order of target objects.

[0028] In the embodiments of the present application, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of the present application should not be interpreted as being more preferred or more advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a specific way.

[0029] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0030] In the automotive industry, whether it is a traditional gasoline car or a new energy car, the battery is the core component of the vehicle's operation and function realization. It plays an irreplaceable key role in the overall performance and daily use of the car. For example, the low-voltage electricity of most gasoline cars or new energy cars is provided by low-voltage batteries (which provide power for the small electrical systems and auxiliary equipment of electric vehicles, which can be referred to as "small batteries"). Low-voltage batteries play a very important role in the normal operation of vehicles. For example, in gasoline cars, low-voltage batteries can be used to start the vehicle engine, or when the car engine is not working, they can supply power to other modules that need electricity, such as door switches, trunk opening, and dashboard power supply. Electric vehicles in new energy vehicles can not only drive the vehicle through the high-voltage battery that comes with the car (which provides power for the electric car motor, also known as "big battery" or "power battery"), but also get rid of the strong dependence of traditional gasoline cars on small batteries, and replenish the low-voltage battery in time to ensure that the low voltage voltage can support the normal operation of electric vehicles.

[0031] Whether it is a traditional gasoline car or a new energy vehicle that has made great progress in recent years, when unlocking the vehicle, in addition to using the traditional mechanical key, the vehicle can also be unlocked by electronic start using the car electronic key, and the electronic unlocking process requires a low-voltage battery to provide power support for the relevant system. For example, the vehicle may include an electronic key start system, which is connected to the electronic key start system using the car electronic key, and the vehicle is remotely unlocked and started. When the mechanical key is used to unlock the vehicle, the mechanical key can open the vehicle through the mechanical structure of the vehicle; when the car electronic key is used to unlock the vehicle, the electronic key start system can communicate with the car electronic key and receive relevant operation commands of the car electronic key, such as opening the door lock, opening the trunk, etc. The car electronic key can be a bracelet key, a Bluetooth key, a cloud service key, a near-field communication (NFC) card key, etc., and the car electronic key can also be called an electronic key.

[0032] When the vehicle is parked, since some devices are still in standby mode, the power in the low-voltage battery is still consumed. If the vehicle is parked for too long, the power in the low-voltage battery that provides energy for the electronic key starting system will be completely exhausted. If the vehicle is a gasoline car, the power is not enough to support the start of the engine at this time, so the low-voltage battery cannot be charged by the engine; if the vehicle is an electric car, if the battery capacity of the high-voltage battery is also limited at this time, the high-voltage battery cannot replenish the power of the low-voltage battery. Therefore, when the power of the vehicle's low-voltage battery is exhausted, the vehicle will be in a state of power loss, and thus cannot support the normal operation of the vehicle. For example, when the vehicle is in a state of power loss, the low-voltage battery at this time cannot provide the minimum working power required for electronic starting, so the vehicle cannot be unlocked by the car electronic key, and can only be unlocked by the mechanical key. However, with the development of technology, the development trend of the automotive industry is also to hope to use car electronic keys to replace traditional mechanical keys, and gradually eliminate the use of mechanical keys. However, when the vehicle is low on power, the vehicle cannot be opened without a mechanical key and can only be opened through forced operations such as prying open the door lock, but such operations will bring great risks and inconvenience to the user.

[0033] In the prior art, a solution for emergency jump-start unlocking is proposed. Figure 1 Vehicle shown is in low battery condition. Figure 1 The emergency unlocking solution shown may include steps S110 to S130.

[0034] Step S110, when the vehicle is in a low-power state, the vehicle can be set to a state allowing it to receive power from an external emergency power source.

[0035] Step S120, when the vehicle receives the external emergency power supply signal, it can communicate with the electronic key to receive the control signal of the electronic key.

[0036] Step S130: When the vehicle receives an unlocking signal from the electronic key, the door locks may be controlled to unlock.

[0037] In some cases, when the vehicle battery malfunctions and cannot work normally, such as when the battery line is disconnected due to a collision, the vehicle can also be set to a state that allows it to receive power from an external emergency power supply.

[0038] based on Figure 1The emergency unlocking scheme shown in the figure is understandable that, in the current market, when the vehicle is low on power or the vehicle battery is abnormal and cannot work normally, in the absence of a mechanical key, the vehicle can be set to a state that allows the vehicle to receive external emergency power supply. After detecting the external emergency power supply signal, the vehicle can be unlocked by the car electronic key. However, in the above technical scheme, the emphasis is on the macro-functional implementation technical framework of the emergency unlocking function, and no attention is paid to the problems in the implementation of the above technical scheme, and no more description of the details of the technical scheme is given.

[0039] For example, when unlocking the car door through the emergency power supply mode, if the car electronic key switch lock function is located on the same button, it is impossible to send an unlock command through the car electronic key to unlock other functions of the car. For example, for the overall aesthetics of the vehicle, some gasoline cars and most electric cars use hidden door handles. When the vehicle has unlocked the door through the emergency power supply mode, you want to unlock the vehicle through the car electronic key to trigger the electrical release of the door handle at the same time. If the unlocking function of the car electronic key is located on the same button at this time, the car electronic key may not be able to send an unlocking command normally, so that the vehicle cannot be unlocked normally, and then the electrical release cannot be achieved to open the door handle. The unlocking function of the car electronic key is located on the same button, which can be understood as the car electronic key can use the same physical button to realize the unlocking function, and the implementation method can be: press the physical button for the first time to send an unlocking command, and press the second time to send a locking command, and the same physical button of the car electronic key is pressed cyclically to realize the cyclic sending of the unlocking and locking commands. Alternatively, the car electronic key can be a car electronic key with a screen, and the unlocking function can be controlled by different icons located at the same icon position. Taking the mobile phone as the electronic key of the car as an example, the vehicle manufacturer's application can be installed on the mobile phone to realize the command control of the vehicle through the mobile phone. In order to pursue a simple style, in the interface of the mobile phone application, only one icon position is used to control the unlocking and locking functions by clicking on different icons (unlock icon and lock icon).

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, taking the mobile phone as an electronic key as an example, in the APP interface of the mobile phone controlling the vehicle, the icon of the car lock switch can be switched in the same icon position, such as Figure 2 The car lock icon in the upper middle picture is a closed lock icon. Figure 2 The car lock icon in the middle and lower picture is the unlock icon. Figure 3In the flowchart shown, when the icon position of the car lock is displayed as a lock icon, clicking on the icon position indicates the sending of the unlock command, and the icon position is switched to the unlock icon. Correspondingly, when the icon position is displayed as an unlock icon, clicking on the icon position indicates the sending of the lock command, and the icon position is switched to the lock icon. When the vehicle is in a low-power state and the door is unlocked, when the mobile phone is connected to the vehicle, since the vehicle is unlocked at this time, the mobile phone interface displays the unlock icon. At this time, the user can only send a lock command to the vehicle by clicking on the icon, and cannot normally send an unlock command to the vehicle. Only after the user sends a lock command to the vehicle first, can it continue to send an unlock command to the vehicle. In some cases, such as when the vehicle uses a hidden door handle, although the vehicle is unlocked at this time, the door handle cannot be triggered due to the low-power state of the vehicle. The electric release, the vehicle needs to be unlocked twice to open the door. However, in some cases, the external emergency power supply connected to the vehicle is limited in power, and cannot support multiple communications between the vehicle and the electronic key and the execution of control commands, resulting in the vehicle being unable to unlock normally. In the related art, no corresponding solution is proposed for similar detailed problems.

[0041] Based on the above problems, this application proposes a vehicle lock control method. Figure 4 , the method is explained.

[0042] Figure 4 It is a schematic flow chart of a vehicle lock control method provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 The method shown can be performed by the gasoline vehicle described above, or a new energy vehicle, which can include an electric vehicle. In the vehicle, a lock control system can be included.

[0043] Figure 4 It includes steps S410 to S430.

[0044] Step S410, determining whether the vehicle is in an emergency power supply mode.

[0045] In some embodiments, when the vehicle is powered by an emergency power source, the vehicle may be considered to be in emergency power mode.

[0046] In some embodiments, when the battery power of the vehicle is normal, the vehicle can be supported to operate normally. However, when the battery power of the vehicle is exhausted or the battery of the vehicle cannot supply power normally, the vehicle can be considered to be in a low-power state, and an emergency power supply can be connected to supply power to the vehicle.

[0047] In some embodiments, it can be determined whether the vehicle is in the emergency power supply mode based on the first condition. It can also be understood that it can be determined whether the vehicle needs to be connected to the emergency power supply based on the first condition.

[0048] In some embodiments, the first condition may include that the power supply voltage of the vehicle is lower than a first threshold. Optionally, when the power supply voltage is lower than the first threshold, the vehicle is powered by an emergency power supply, and the vehicle is in an emergency power supply mode. Optionally, when the power supply voltage is greater than, or equal to, the first threshold, the vehicle can use the vehicle battery normally, and the vehicle is in normal mode. In some embodiments, the first threshold may be a value greater than or equal to 12V. Optionally, the power supply voltage may be a 12V low-voltage battery.

[0049] In some embodiments, the emergency power supply may be a power module built into the vehicle or a power module external to the vehicle.

[0050] Optionally, the emergency power supply can be the wireless power receiving module mentioned in the above-mentioned related technology. The vehicle in the embodiment of the present application can include the wireless power receiving module, so that when the vehicle is out of power, the wireless power receiving module can be reverse charged through an external control device, thereby supporting the vehicle to normally receive commands from the car electronic key in the emergency power supply mode and unlock the vehicle.

[0051] Optionally, the emergency power supply may also be the external emergency power supply mentioned in the above related technology, and the external emergency power supply may be a low-voltage power supply outside the vehicle, such as a jump-start power bank, a low-voltage battery, and other forms of power carriers.

[0052] Optionally, the emergency power supply may also be a backup low-voltage power supply built into the vehicle, and the specific form is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0053] Step S420: receiving a vehicle control command sent by the vehicle electronic key.

[0054] In some embodiments, the vehicle may receive a vehicle control command sent by the electronic key of the vehicle. For example, the vehicle may establish a connection with the electronic key of the vehicle and then communicate, and may receive a vehicle control command sent by the electronic key of the vehicle. Optionally, the vehicle control command may include an unlock command and a lock command of the vehicle, so that the unlock command control and the lock command control of the vehicle may be implemented by the electronic key of the vehicle.

[0055] In some embodiments, the electronic car key may include the aforementioned bracelet key, Bluetooth key, cloud service key, NFC card key or mobile phone, etc. Optionally, when the electronic car key includes a Bluetooth module, the electronic car key and the vehicle may be connected via Bluetooth; Optionally, when the electronic car key is an NFC card key, the electronic car key and the vehicle may be connected via NFC; Optionally, with the popularity of mobile phones, the electronic car key may be a mobile phone, and may be connected to the vehicle via Bluetooth or ultra-wide band (UWB).

[0056] In some embodiments, the unlocking function of the electronic car key can be located on the same button. It is understandable that the electronic car key can use the same button to send an unlocking command and a locking command to the vehicle. For example, the electronic car key can be the one mentioned above that can use the same physical button to send an unlocking command and a locking command. The electronic car key can also be the one mentioned above with a screen, and the unlocking function can be controlled by different icons located at the same icon position. Such as a mobile phone, a watch, a bracelet with a screen, etc.

[0057] In step S430, the vehicle lock control system may identify the vehicle control command as an unlocking command and unlock the vehicle.

[0058] In some embodiments, the vehicle's lock control system may receive a vehicle control command. When the vehicle is in the emergency power supply mode, the vehicle control system may identify the vehicle control command as an unlocking command and unlock the vehicle.

[0059] It is understandable that when the vehicle enters the emergency power supply mode, the vehicle's lock control system can identify any vehicle control command sent by the car electronic key as an unlock command and unlock the vehicle. For example, when the unlock function of the car electronic key is located on the same button, when the vehicle enters the emergency power supply mode, whether it is an unlock command or a lock command sent by the car electronic key through the button, the vehicle's lock control system can identify it as an unlock command, thereby avoiding the problem that the car electronic key cannot send an unlock command normally when unlocking in the emergency power supply mode, resulting in the vehicle being unable to unlock.

[0060] In some embodiments, the vehicle may include two doors, or four doors, and some models may also include electric doors. When the power of the emergency power supply is relatively limited, it may not be enough to support all the doors of the vehicle to be unlocked, resulting in failure to unlock the vehicle. Therefore, in order to improve the success rate of unlocking the vehicle under limited power conditions, in some embodiments, only the left front door lock of the vehicle may be unlocked. Optionally, only the left front door lock motor of the vehicle may be unlocked. Compared with unlocking all the doors of the vehicle, only unlocking the left front door lock of the vehicle greatly improves the success rate of unlocking the vehicle under limited power conditions of the emergency power supply.

[0061] In some embodiments, only one door lock of the vehicle may be unlocked, for example, the right front door of the vehicle.

[0062] In some examples, the vehicle's lock control system may also execute step S410 and step S420, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0063] pass Figure 4The vehicle lock control method shown can, when the vehicle door is unlocked in the emergency power supply mode, if the unlocking function of the vehicle electronic key is located on the same button, the command sent by the button can be identified as an unlocking command to unlock the vehicle, and other functions of the vehicle can be unlocked, thereby avoiding the problem that the unlocking command cannot be sent normally to unlock the vehicle through the vehicle electronic key when the vehicle door is unlocked in the emergency power supply mode, so that users can solve the problem of unlocking the vehicle in the emergency power supply mode more conveniently and seamlessly.

[0064] With the continuous development of communication technology, communication security is becoming more and more important in the communication field. Therefore, the communication security between the car electronic key and the vehicle is also crucial to protect the vehicle from illegal access and ensure data security.

[0065] In some embodiments, when a vehicle receives a vehicle control command sent by a car electronic key, the vehicle needs to authenticate the car electronic key before establishing a connection with the car electronic key, so as to avoid security issues caused by any car electronic key being able to send control commands to the vehicle. It can also be considered that the car electronic key can only send a vehicle control command to the vehicle when it is a legitimate key belonging to the vehicle.

[0066] Optionally, when a user wants to use the car electronic key to send a vehicle control command to the vehicle, the car electronic key can first send a legal authentication application to the vehicle. For example, the application can include a pre-agreed key. After receiving the application, the vehicle determines whether the car electronic key is legal through the application information, and sends the authentication success information to the car electronic key to establish a connection between the vehicle and the car electronic key, so that the vehicle can receive the vehicle control command sent by the car electronic key.

[0067] Optionally, the vehicle can actively initiate an application for legal authentication of the automobile electronic key, and the automobile electronic key can send its own relevant information to the vehicle based on the application of the vehicle. The vehicle can confirm whether the automobile electronic key is legal based on the relevant information, and send the information of successful authentication to the automobile electronic key, establish a connection between the vehicle and the automobile electronic key, so that the vehicle can receive the vehicle control command sent by the automobile electronic key. In some embodiments, the automobile electronic key can include a Bluetooth module. When the vehicle is in the emergency power supply mode, the vehicle can actively search for the automobile electronic key through Bluetooth, and initiate an application for legal authentication to the automobile electronic key with the Bluetooth module searched, so as to determine whether the automobile electronic key is a legal automobile electronic key of the vehicle. Such a design can enable the vehicle to actively search for the automobile electronic key and complete the process of legal authentication between the vehicle and the automobile electronic key when entering the emergency power supply mode, so that in the emergency power supply mode, the user's operation time is reduced, and the automobile electronic key can be used more conveniently to send commands to the vehicle to unlock the vehicle. Optionally, when the power of the emergency power supply is limited, the automobile electronic key can be legally authenticated immediately when the vehicle is connected to the emergency power supply in the shortest possible time, so as to improve the success rate of the user unlocking the vehicle in the emergency power supply mode.

[0068] Optionally, the electronic key and the vehicle can also perform two-way identity authentication. In some embodiments, when the user wants to use the electronic key to send a vehicle control command to the vehicle, the electronic key can first send a legal authentication application to the vehicle. After receiving the application, the vehicle determines whether the electronic key is legal through the application information, and sends the authentication success information to the electronic key. When the electronic key receives the authentication success information from the vehicle, it can determine whether the vehicle is legal. When the electronic key determines that the vehicle is legal, it will establish a connection between the vehicle and the electronic key, so that the vehicle can receive the vehicle control command sent by the electronic key. In some embodiments, the vehicle can actively initiate a legal authentication application for the electronic key when it is in the emergency power supply mode. The electronic key can determine whether the vehicle is legal based on the authentication application of the vehicle. After determining that the vehicle is legal, the electronic key sends its own relevant information to the vehicle. The vehicle can confirm whether the electronic key is legal based on the relevant information. When the vehicle determines that the electronic key is legal, it can send the authentication success information to the electronic key to establish a connection between the vehicle and the electronic key, so that the vehicle can receive the vehicle control command sent by the electronic key.

[0069] In some embodiments, if the legal authentication between the vehicle and the car electronic key fails, the vehicle cannot establish a connection with the car electronic key, that is, the vehicle cannot receive the vehicle control command sent by the car electronic key at this time, thereby ensuring the communication security of the vehicle.

[0070] Most traditional gasoline cars use mechanical door handles, which rely on physical operations to open and close the doors. However, a small number of gasoline cars and most electric cars currently use hidden door handles for the overall aesthetics of the vehicle. Existing hidden door handles can be opened in a variety of ways. For example, the door handle can be opened by sensing the signal of the car's electronic key, triggering the electrical release of the door handle and popping it out. Alternatively, the vehicle can also receive an unlock command from the car's electronic key, thereby triggering the electrical release of the door handle and popping it out.

[0071] In some embodiments, a vehicle with a hidden door handle may fail to open the door handle by electrically releasing the door handle due to insufficient power even when the vehicle is unlocked. Optionally, the vehicle can simultaneously unlock the door lock and electrically release the door handle upon receiving an unlock command, so that when the vehicle is out of power, the user can unlock the vehicle and electrically release the door handle at the same time by issuing an unlock command, thereby opening the door.

[0072] Optionally, in order to ensure that the user can open the door in time after sending the vehicle control command through the car electronic key, the time for electrically releasing the door handle can be continued for more than 5 seconds.

[0073] In some embodiments, some automobile electronic keys may include other functional buttons in addition to the unlocking function button, such as the functions of opening the trunk and finding the car. However, when the power in the emergency power supply mode is limited, in order to ensure that the user can successfully unlock the vehicle using the automobile electronic key, the vehicle will only be recognized as an unlocking command when it receives the locking command of the vehicle, and then the vehicle will be unlocked. It can also be understood that in the emergency power supply mode, the vehicle will only be unlocked when it receives the unlocking command or locking command of the vehicle. For example, if the vehicle is in the emergency power supply mode and receives a car finding command or a trunk opening command, the vehicle control system may not respond and will not perform related operations on these commands.

[0074] Below Figure 5 Take the embodiment of the present application as an example to describe in detail.

[0075] Figure 5 It is a schematic flow chart of a vehicle lock control method provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 5The method shown may be performed by the gasoline vehicle described above, or a new energy vehicle, which may include an electric vehicle. Figure 5 The emergency power supply may be a low-voltage power supply outside the vehicle, a wireless power receiving module built into the vehicle, or an emergency power supply built into the vehicle. Figure 5 The automobile electronic key can be the electronic key mentioned above, or a mobile phone installed with the corresponding key application software of the vehicle manufacturer. Figure 5 The vehicle in may include a lock control system for the vehicle.

[0076] Figure 5 It includes steps S510 to S530.

[0077] Step S510, determining whether the current vehicle is low on power or whether the battery of the vehicle is abnormal.

[0078] If the current vehicle battery can work normally, the method ends; if the current vehicle is low on power or the vehicle battery is abnormal, the vehicle can receive emergency power supply and the vehicle is in emergency power supply mode.

[0079] Step S520, when the vehicle is in the emergency power supply mode, before the vehicle is connected to the vehicle electronic key, the vehicle can authenticate the legality of the vehicle electronic key. If the authentication fails, the method ends; if the authentication succeeds, the vehicle can receive the vehicle control command sent by the vehicle electronic key.

[0080] Step S530, when the vehicle electronic key is in the emergency power supply mode, if the vehicle electronic key sends a non-unlocking command to the vehicle, such as a trunk opening command, the vehicle lock control system does not respond after identifying the command; if the vehicle electronic key sends an unlocking command to the vehicle, the vehicle control system can identify the unlocking command as an unlocking command when receiving the unlocking command, and unlock the left front door lock of the vehicle, and electrically release the left front door handle of the vehicle, and the method ends.

[0081] In some embodiments, when the mobile phone is an electronic car key, the mobile phone application interface can use an icon position to switch different icons by clicking to realize the control of the unlocking function, such as Figure 2 As shown in the figure above, you can unlock the vehicle by turning on the motorcycle lock icon. After the vehicle is unlocked, the mobile app will display the following Figure 2As shown in the figure below, the icon switches to the unlocked state. When the user needs to continue to unlock the vehicle with the car electronic key, he can continue to click the car lock icon. Since the vehicle is already in a low-power state, when the vehicle key recognition module receives the vehicle control command sent by the car electronic key, it can identify the command as an unlock command and send the unlock command to the vehicle left front door module to unlock the vehicle.

[0082] Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart of another vehicle lock control method in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 The method shown may be performed by the gasoline vehicle described above, or a new energy vehicle, which may include an electric vehicle. Figure 6 In the case of low power of the vehicle, a 12V emergency unlocking power supply is used as the emergency power supply. Figure 6 The vehicle in the embodiment may include a lock control system of the vehicle, and the lock control system of the vehicle may be Figure 6 The vehicle left front door module may be used to receive an unlock command from the vehicle key identification module and unlock the door lock.

[0083] When the vehicle is low on power, a 12V emergency unlocking power supply can be connected to power the vehicle key identification module and the vehicle left front door module.

[0084] After the vehicle key identification module establishes a connection with the mobile phone, the vehicle key identification module receives the vehicle control command sent by the mobile phone.

[0085] When the vehicle key identification module determines that the vehicle is powered by the emergency power supply, the vehicle control command sent by the mobile phone can be identified as an unlocking command and sent to the vehicle left front door module via the LIN line.

[0086] In response to the unlock command, the vehicle left front door module unlocks the door lock, thereby unlocking the vehicle.

[0087] In some embodiments, the vehicle key identification module can be used to authenticate the vehicle electronic key. Optionally, when the emergency power supply is connected to the vehicle, the vehicle key identification module can actively search for the vehicle key through Bluetooth. Figure 6 The method ends when the vehicle key recognition module detects that the mobile phone key is legal. If the vehicle key recognition module detects that the mobile phone key is legal, the mobile phone can send a vehicle control command to the vehicle.

[0088] In some embodiments, after the vehicle key identification module determines that the vehicle electronic key is legitimate and that it is powered by an emergency power supply, it can identify the unlock command received from the vehicle electronic key as an unlock command, and send the command to the vehicle left front door module via the LIN line. The vehicle left front door module can unlock the vehicle in response to the unlock command. Optionally, when the vehicle left front door module unlocks the vehicle, it can include unlocking the drive left front door lock and electrically releasing the door handle.

[0089] A vehicle lock control method proposed in an embodiment of the present application can, when the vehicle door is unlocked in emergency power supply mode, if the unlocking function of the vehicle electronic key is located on the same button, the command sent by the button can be identified as an unlocking command to unlock the vehicle, and other functions of the vehicle can be unlocked, thereby avoiding the problem that the unlocking command cannot be sent normally to unlock the vehicle through the vehicle electronic key when the vehicle door is unlocked in emergency power supply mode, so that users can solve the problem of unlocking the vehicle in emergency power supply mode more conveniently and unconsciously.
