[0053] With reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0054] With the development of automobile intelligence, in order to adapt to the demand of users for riding comfort, more and more vehicles are equipped with table board assemblies that can be automatically unfolded and folded for users to place articles. However, in the related art, since the article placing surface of the table board or the area between the table board and the chair back may have articles placed therein, the table board has a risk of causing the articles to be squeezed or overturned during automatic folding, which causes a safety hazard of the table board during use.

[0055] To solve the problem of how to eliminate the safety hazard of the table board assembly during use, the present application provides a table board assembly control method, system, storage medium and vehicle. In response to triggering of a vehicle door opening signal, the state of each table board assembly and occupant use information are collected, and based on the state and the occupant use information, a target table board assembly in an unfolded state and to be folded is determined. Then, obstacle information of the target table board assembly is collected, and based on the obstacle information, it is determined whether to perform a folding action on the target table board assembly. If not, warning information for the target table board assembly is output to prompt the user to remove the obstacle. Before controlling the table board assembly to be automatically folded, the obstacle that hinders the folding of the target table board assembly is identified based on the obstacle information, and then the user is prompted to remove the obstacle through the warning information, so that the table board will not cause the articles to be overturned or squeezed during automatic folding, and the safety hazard of the table board during use is eliminated. The specific method is as follows:

[0056] The first aspect of the present application proposes an embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 As shown in a table board assembly control method step diagram, the method is applied to a vehicle, specifically to a vehicle-mounted controller, the vehicle includes a plurality of table board assemblies, the state of the table board assembly includes an unfolded state and a folded state, in the unfolded state the table board assembly is unfolded on one side of the chair back, in the folded state the table board assembly is stored on one side of the chair back. The main steps include:

[0057] Step S101, in response to triggering of a vehicle door opening signal, the state of each table board assembly and occupant use information are collected. The occupant use information is used to indicate whether the table board assembly needs to be used by the occupant after the current time.

[0058] The table board assembly refers to an assembly with a storage function on a vehicle, at least including a table board. The table board assembly is arranged on a chair back and includes two states of an unfolded state and a folded state. In the unfolded state, the table board assembly is unfolded on one side of the chair back; in the folded state, the table board assembly is stored on the one side of the chair back.

[0059] The door opening signal can be collected by a door sensor arranged at the door. The door sensor is a sensor for detecting the position of the door and is connected with the vehicle controller. When the door sensor detects that the position of the door is at a preset position corresponding to the opening of the door, the door opening signal is sent to the vehicle controller, so that the vehicle controller collects the state of each table board assembly and the passenger use information in response to the door opening signal.

[0060] In step S102, based on the state of the table board assembly and the passenger use information, the target table board assembly in the unfolded state and to be folded is determined.

[0061] The passenger use information is used to indicate whether the table board assembly needs to be used by the passenger after the current time. When the passenger use information indicates that the table board assembly does not need to be used by the passenger after the current time, the table board assembly is determined to be the table board assembly to be folded. When the passenger use information indicates that the table board assembly needs to be used by the passenger after the current time, the table board assembly is determined to be the table board assembly not to be folded.

[0062] The target table board assembly is the table board assembly in the unfolded state and to be folded. In order to avoid the target table board assembly hindering the action of the passenger when the passenger gets on the vehicle, when the target table board assembly is in the unfolded state and to be folded, it is indicated that the target table board assembly should be controlled to be automatically folded, so that the target table board assembly is in the folded state after the user gets off the vehicle. At this time, in order to avoid safety hazards of the target table board assembly, it should be further determined whether there is a risk of squeezing or overturning articles in the process of folding the target table board assembly.

[0063] In step S103, the obstacle information of the target table board assembly is collected.

[0064] The obstacle information is used to determine whether there is an obstacle hindering the folding of the target table board assembly. The obstacle information can be obtained in various ways, for example, by installing a camera in the cab to collect the environmental image around the target table board, and analyzing the collected environmental image to determine whether there is an obstacle hindering the folding of the target table board. Alternatively, infrared emitters and infrared receivers are installed on both sides of the table board, and whether there is an obstacle hindering the folding of the target table board assembly is determined by judging whether the infrared receivers receive the infrared emitted by the infrared emitters.

[0065] In step S104, based on the obstacle information, it is determined whether to perform a folding action on the target table board assembly.

[0066] When there is an obstacle blocking the target table board assembly from being stowed, it indicates that there is a risk of crushing or overturning the object during the automatic stowing of the table board assembly, so the stowing action is not performed on the target table board. When there is no obstacle blocking the stowing of the table board assembly, it indicates that there is no risk of crushing or overturning the object during the automatic stowing of the table board assembly, so the stowing action is performed on the target table board.

[0067] When the stowing action is performed on the target table board, go to step S105; when the stowing action is not performed on the target table board, go to step S106.

[0068] Step S105, if yes, control the target table board assembly to be in the stowed state.

[0069] If the stowing action is performed on the target table board assembly, control the target table board assembly to be in the stowed state. In an optional embodiment, the stowing action can be performed by sending a control signal to the motor driving the target table board assembly to move towards the direction of the chair back, and then the target table board assembly is in the stowed state.

[0070] Step S106, if no, output the alarm information for the target table board assembly, the alarm information is used to prompt to remove the obstacle.

[0071] If the stowing action is not performed on the target table board assembly, output the alarm information for the target table board assembly to prompt to remove the obstacle. Specifically, the vehicle-mounted controller should send the alarm information for the target table board assembly to the user, prompting the user that there is currently an obstacle blocking the stowing of the target table board assembly, and prompting the user to remove the obstacle as soon as possible.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, the alarm information can be sent in the form of voice, image or warning light. For example, the vehicle-mounted controller controls the speaker to send a voice prompting the user that the current table board assembly cannot be stowed. Or install warning lights around the table board assembly, when there is an obstacle blocking the stowing of the target table board assembly, the color of the warning light closest to the target table board assembly is switched to red.

[0073] In response to the triggering of the door opening signal, the present application collects the status of each table panel assembly and the passenger usage information, and determines the target table panel assembly that is in the unfolded state and to be folded based on the status and the passenger usage information. Subsequently, the obstacle information of the target table panel assembly is collected, and based on the obstacle information, it is determined whether to perform the folding action on the target table panel assembly. If not, an alarm message for the target table panel assembly is output to prompt the user to remove the obstacle. Before controlling the automatic folding of the table panel assembly, the present application first identifies the obstacle that hinders the folding of the target table panel assembly based on the obstacle information, and then prompts the user to remove the obstacle through an alarm message, thereby ensuring that the table panel will not overturn or squeeze the objects during the automatic folding process, eliminating the safety hazards of the table panel during use.

[0074] In another embodiment of the present application, in addition to the steps in the above-mentioned embodiment, the following steps are further included:

[0075] Optionally, refer to Figure 2 Another tabletop assembly control method step diagram is shown. In addition to steps 101 to 106 described in the first embodiment, after step S106, the method further includes:

[0076] Step S107, cyclically collecting obstacle information of the target table top assembly.

[0077] After the warning information is issued, obstacle information is cyclically collected for the target table top component that is currently in the unfolded state, so as to determine whether the obstacle that prevents the target table top component from being folded has been removed by the user.

[0078] Step S108: When the currently collected obstacle information indicates that there is no obstacle that prevents the target table top assembly from being folded, control the target table top assembly to be in the folded state.

[0079] If the currently collected obstacles indicate that there are no obstacles that would prevent the target table assembly from being retracted, it indicates that the obstacle that would prevent the target table assembly from being retracted has been removed by the user, and the safety hazard posed by the target table assembly has been eliminated. At this point, the target table assembly can be controlled to be in the retracted state, thereby ensuring that the target table assembly is in the retracted state after the passenger exits the vehicle or before the passenger enters the vehicle.

[0080] Optionally, the table panel assembly includes a table panel and a screen, and when both the table panel and the screen are in the retracted state, the screen is located between the table panel and the seat back. The passenger usage information includes passenger seating information, and the passenger seating information is used to indicate whether a seat corresponding to the table panel assembly is occupied by a passenger, wherein the seat corresponding to the table panel assembly is the seat belonging to the seating space occupied by the table panel assembly.

[0081] refer toFigure 3 A method for determining a target table board assembly is shown. Step S102 includes:

[0082] Step S1021, determine whether the state of the table board assembly and the passenger usage information meet a preset condition. The preset condition includes that the screen is in the stowed state, the table board is in the unfolded state, and the passenger seating information indicates that the seat corresponding to the table board assembly is not occupied by a passenger.

[0083] Reference Figure 4 A first structure diagram of a screen and a table board is shown, Figure 5 A second structure diagram of a screen and a table board is shown, Figure 6 A third structure diagram of a screen and a table board is shown, Figure 4 The screen and the table board in the above are in the stowed state, Figure 5 The screen in the above is in the stowed state, and the table board is in the unfolded state, Figure 6 The screen and the table board in the above are in the unfolded state.

[0084] The seat corresponding to the table board assembly refers to the seat to which the part of the seating space occupied by the table and chair assembly belongs. For example, in a left-hand five-seater passenger car, the table board assembly arranged on the back of the co-pilot seat corresponds to the seat in the rear seat close to the right side door, and the table board assembly arranged on the back of the driver's seat corresponds to the seat in the rear seat close to the left side door.

[0085] In an optional embodiment, the state of the screen can be determined by a position sensor arranged on the screen. When the position sensor detects that the screen is in a preset position corresponding to the stowed state, it is determined that the screen is in the stowed state; when the position sensor detects that the screen is in a preset position corresponding to the unfolded state, it is determined that the screen is in the unfolded state.

[0086] Since the screen is usually more prone to damage, in order to reduce the probability of screen damage, the screen is located between the table board and the seat back when the screen and the table board are in the stowed state. Based on this, in order to effectively protect the screen, the table board assembly should be determined as the target table board assembly when the screen is in the stowed state, the table board is in the unfolded state, and the passenger seating information indicates that the seat corresponding to the table board assembly is not occupied by a passenger.

[0087] Step S1022, when the state of the table board assembly and the passenger usage information meet the preset condition, determine that the table board assembly is the target table board assembly.

[0088] When the table board assembly meets the preset condition, it indicates that the table board is in the unfolded state, and the folding action can be performed objectively. At the same time, the table board assembly is currently not occupied by the passenger, that is, the table board assembly will not be used by the passenger after the current time, and the folding condition is satisfied subjectively. Further, the screen is in the folded state, and the screen can be protected after the table board is folded.

[0089] In summary, when the state of the table board assembly and the passenger use information meet the preset condition, the table board assembly should be determined as the target table board assembly, and then based on the obstacle information of the target table board assembly, it is determined whether to perform the folding action on the table board.

[0090] Optionally, referring to Figure 7 The method steps of obtaining information based on the vehicle door opening signal are shown. In step S101, in response to the triggering of the vehicle door opening signal, the state of each table board assembly and the passenger use information are collected, including:

[0091] In step S1011, based on the vehicle door opening signal, the target vehicle door corresponding to the vehicle door opening signal is determined.

[0092] In order to reduce the energy consumption of the vehicle for collecting passenger occupancy information and improve the energy use efficiency of the vehicle, the most likely automatically folded table board assembly can be determined through the vehicle door opening signal, and information collection can be performed on the most likely automatically folded table board assembly.

[0093] When the vehicle door sensor detects that the vehicle door is opened, the vehicle controller can determine the target vehicle door that is opened through the vehicle door opening signal transmitted by the vehicle door sensor. Generally, when the passenger gets off the vehicle, the passenger will open the vehicle door closest to the passenger and get off from the vehicle door closest to the passenger. Therefore, it can be deduced that the passenger closest to the target vehicle door that is opened is most likely to get off the vehicle, that is, the table board assembly closest to the target vehicle door is most likely not to be used by the passenger after the current time. Therefore, in order to reduce the energy consumption of the vehicle, the target vehicle door corresponding to the vehicle door opening signal should be determined based on the vehicle door opening signal.

[0094] In step S1012, the state of the table board assembly close to the target vehicle door and the passenger use information are collected.

[0095] From the analysis in step S1011, it can be known that the table board assembly closest to the target vehicle door is most likely not to be used by the passenger after the current time, and therefore the passenger use information and the state of the table board assembly close to the target vehicle door should be collected.

[0096] Optionally, referring to Figure 8 The method steps of obtaining obstacle information are shown. In step S103, the obstacle information of the target table board assembly is collected, including:

[0097] Step S11, obtaining image information of the target table board assembly. The image information includes an image of the object placement surface of the target table board assembly and an image of the target table board assembly in the stowing path.

[0098] The image information of the target table board assembly can be collected by a camera arranged on the roof of the cab. The image information should at least include an image of the object placement surface of the target table board assembly and an image of the target table board assembly in the stowing path. Based on the image of the object placement surface of the target table board assembly, it can be determined whether there is a risk of overturning the object, and based on the image of the target table board assembly in the stowing path, it can be determined whether there is a risk of crushing the object, so as to fully identify the potential safety hazards of the target table board assembly.

[0099] Step S12, identifying obstacle information in the image information.

[0100] The identification of the obstacle information in the image information can be realized by an image recognition algorithm. Specifically, RCNN (Region-based Convolutional Neural Networks) and SSD (Sum of Squared Differences) algorithm can be used.

[0101] Step S13, generating obstacle information of the target table board assembly according to the identification result.

[0102] According to the identification result of the obstacle information in the image information, the obstacle information of the target table board assembly is generated.

[0103] Alternatively, referring to Figure 9 Another method for obtaining obstacle information is shown in the step diagram. The collection of the obstacle information of the target table board assembly in step S103 includes:

[0104] Step S21, obtaining pressure information borne by the object placement surface of the target table board assembly.

[0105] In order to reduce the operation amount of the vehicle-mounted controller and improve the reaction speed of the vehicle-mounted controller, it can be determined whether there is an obstacle blocking the stowing of the target table board assembly by the pressure information borne by the object placement surface of the target table board assembly. Specifically, the pressure sensor can be arranged at the connection between the table board assembly and the chair back, or below the object placement surface of the table board assembly.

[0106] Step S22, determining the obstacle information of the target table board assembly based on the pressure information.

[0107] When it is determined, based on the collected pressure information, that the pressure borne by the object placing surface of the target table board assembly is greater than the preset pressure, it is determined that there is an obstacle that hinders the folding of the target table board assembly; when the pressure borne by the object placing surface of the target table board assembly is less than or equal to the preset pressure, it is determined that there is no obstacle that hinders the folding of the target table board assembly.

[0108] The third aspect of the present application proposes an embodiment, which refers to Figure 10 A flowchart of a table board assembly control method is shown, and the method is applied to a vehicle. The vehicle includes a plurality of table board assemblies, and each table board assembly includes a table board and a screen. The state of each table board assembly includes an unfolded state and a folded state.
