Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for adaptively adjusting driving comfort of a commercial vehicle, and belongs to the technical field of vehicle control. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of automotive electronic technology and the improvement of consumers' demand for quality of life, consumers' requirements for vehicles are gradually increasing, especially in the field of commercial vehicles. Due to frequent long-term driving, drivers' demands for comfort, safety and intelligence are gradually increasing.
[0003] However, the seats in commercial vehicle cabs are mainly adjusted manually. The driver adjusts the seat position according to his or her height and personal preferences. The adjusted seat posture is not a reference posture suitable for long-term riding, which can easily cause driver fatigue. In addition, if the seat is adjusted manually during driving, there are also great safety hazards. Commercial vehicle rearview mirrors now have manual adjustment and electric adjustment functions, but even electric adjustment requires the driver to manually adjust it, and the adjusted rearview mirror position may not meet the field of vision requirements, and if it is adjusted again during driving, it will affect driving safety. Commercial vehicle steering wheels now have mechanical or pneumatic adjustment functions, but both adjustment methods require manual operation, and the manually adjusted position may block the dashboard or make arm operation uncomfortable. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for adaptively adjusting driving comfort of commercial vehicles, which can put the driver in the most comfortable driving position by adaptively adjusting the seat position, rearview mirror angle, and steering wheel position, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that the driver needs to manually adjust the optimal driving position, reducing the driver's manual operation frequency, reducing fatigue during long-distance driving, and effectively improving the comfort and safety of commercial vehicle drivers.
