[0069] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0070] In the embodiments of this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used to distinguish identical or similar items with substantially the same function and effect. Those skilled in the art will understand that the terms "first" and "second" do not limit the quantity or execution order, and that "first" and "second" do not necessarily imply difference. It should be noted that in the embodiments of this application, the words "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate that something is being used as an example, illustration, or description. Any embodiment or design scheme described as "exemplary" or "for example" in this application should not be construed as being better or more advantageous than other embodiments or design schemes. Specifically, the use of "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a concrete manner. In the embodiments of this application, "at least one" refers to one or more, and "more than one" refers to two or more.

[0071] It should be noted that the phrase "at...time" in the embodiments of this application can refer to the instant at which a certain situation occurs, or to a period of time after the occurrence of a certain situation; the embodiments of this application do not specifically limit this. Furthermore, the engine control method provided in the embodiments of this application is merely an example; an engine control method may include more or fewer elements.

[0072] To facilitate a clear description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application, some terms and technologies involved in the embodiments of this application will be briefly introduced below:

[0073] Auto Hold is a driver assistance feature designed to improve driving comfort and safety. When the vehicle comes to a stop, the electronic parking brake (automatically activating the vehicle's braking system) engages, maintaining braking pressure and keeping the vehicle stationary without requiring the driver to continuously press the brake pedal or use the handbrake. Therefore, when Auto Hold is engaged, the vehicle will not move even if the driver releases the brake pedal. This feature is particularly useful when stopped at traffic lights, in traffic jams, or starting on an incline, as it prevents the vehicle from accidentally sliding or moving, thus improving driving safety and convenience. Furthermore, when the vehicle needs to start moving again, the driver simply needs to lightly press the accelerator pedal or press the release button to deactivate Auto Hold (automatically releasing the brakes), allowing the vehicle to move normally and smoothly forward or backward.

[0074] The vehicle's automatic start-stop function is used to automatically shut off the engine when the vehicle is idling or parked, and quickly restart it when needed, in order to save fuel and reduce exhaust emissions, thereby reducing environmental pollution.

[0075] Under current technological conditions, the automatic start-stop function of vehicles is particularly important when vehicles are waiting at traffic lights or encountering traffic jams, because it can automatically shut off the engine when the vehicle stops briefly and quickly restart the engine when the driver is ready to continue driving, thereby effectively avoiding unnecessary idling of the engine and reducing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions when the vehicle is idling.

[0076] However, while the automatic start-stop function can reduce vehicle fuel consumption, the frequent engine restarts in traditional automatic start-stop systems can negatively impact traffic efficiency and reduce driver comfort. For example, when a driver only needs to stop briefly at an intersection or brake temporarily due to a vehicle braking ahead, after the automatic start-stop function shuts off the engine, the driver needs to quickly restart the engine before leaving the area, thus affecting traffic efficiency and driver comfort.

[0077] Based on this, embodiments of this application propose an engine control method, device, equipment, storage medium, and program product, which can be used in the field of vehicle control technology and aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problems of the prior art. By accurately identifying the driver's parking intention and intelligently controlling the engine's stop and start according to this intention, it ensures that the engine only starts and stops at appropriate times, thereby improving the overall traffic efficiency of the vehicle and significantly enhancing the driver's driving experience.

[0078] The technical solution of this application and how the technical solution of this application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0079] Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating an engine control method provided in this application embodiment. Figure 1 .like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0080] S101. Obtain the vehicle start-stop mode and automatic parking function status.

[0081] In this embodiment of the application, the executing entity of an engine control method can be an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in a vehicle. This ECU can be a controller specifically designed for engine control methods, or it can be an existing Power Control Unit (PCU) or Engine Control Unit in the vehicle, etc., without specific limitations. For ease of description later, this embodiment of the application will uniformly describe the executing entity of the engine control method as a controller.

[0082] Specifically, vehicle start-stop modes include at least two basic modes: user-controlled mode and engine automatic start-stop mode. When the vehicle is in user-controlled mode, the controller can control the engine's operating status according to the user's input stop command; when the vehicle is in engine automatic start-stop mode, the controller can control the engine's operating status according to the existing vehicle automatic start-stop function.

[0083] The automatic parking function has two states: on and off. When the automatic parking function is on, the vehicle stops and the electronic parking brake is automatically engaged. When the automatic parking function is off, the vehicle will not automatically engage the parking brake or remain stationary, and the driver usually needs to manually operate the brake pedal or handbrake to keep the vehicle stationary.

[0084] S102. When the vehicle start-stop mode is user-controlled mode and the automatic parking function is enabled, the vehicle's display device displays a stop ready information and enters the autonomous stop state.

[0085] In this embodiment, the user typically refers to the driver of the vehicle. The "engine ready" message is used to notify the user that they can control the engine start / stop independently. The vehicle's display devices can be a multi-function display screen on the instrument panel, a multimedia touchscreen on the center console, multi-function steering wheel button indicator lights, a voice prompt system, dedicated indicator lights, or a head-up display, etc., without specific limitations.

[0086] Specifically, when the controller determines that the acquired vehicle start-stop mode is the user-controlled mode and the automatic parking function is enabled, it can display a stop-ready message to the user through the vehicle's display device. The display can be achieved through specific indicator lights, sound or voice prompts, or corresponding symbols or text messages to remind the user that the vehicle will simultaneously enter the automatic stop state.

[0087] S103. In autonomous shutdown mode, receive shutdown command from user.

[0088] In this embodiment of the application, the stop command includes at least one of the following: an operation command for the stop button on the vehicle, or a voice stop command.

[0089] Specifically, in the autonomous shutdown state, users can send a shutdown command to the vehicle by manually controlling the steering wheel, the center console touch screen, or the center console shutdown button, or they can send a shutdown command to the vehicle through the vehicle's voice control system. There are no specific restrictions here, so that the driver can control the engine to enter a shutdown state or continue to run based on road conditions and vehicle status.

[0090] S104. In response to a stop command, the vehicle's current speed is detected in real time, and the engine is started and stopped according to the current speed.

[0091] Specifically, after receiving a stop command from the user, the controller can identify the driver's intention to stop based on the command, and then detect the vehicle's current speed in real time based on the driver's stopping intention. It then controls the engine to either stop or continue running based on the vehicle's current speed.

[0092] This embodiment provides an engine control method, which includes: first, acquiring the vehicle start-stop mode and the status of the automatic parking function; then, when the vehicle start-stop mode is a user-controlled mode and the automatic parking function is enabled, displaying shutdown readiness information on the vehicle's display device and entering an autonomous shutdown state, the shutdown readiness information being used to prompt the user that the engine can be autonomously controlled to start and stop; then, in the autonomous shutdown state, receiving a shutdown command from the user, the shutdown command including at least one of the following: an operation command on the shutdown button on the vehicle, or a voice shutdown command; finally, in response to the shutdown command, detecting the vehicle's current speed in real time, so as to control the start-stop of the vehicle's engine according to the current speed.

[0093] The following technical effects are achieved: By acquiring the vehicle's start-stop mode and automatic parking function status, and when the vehicle's start-stop mode is user-controlled and the automatic parking function is enabled, the system identifies the driver's parking intention based on the user's stop command. Then, based on the driver's parking intention and the current vehicle speed, it controls the engine's stop and start, ensuring that the engine only starts and stops at appropriate times, avoiding frequent engine restarts. This avoids the negative impact of frequent engine restarts on vehicle traffic efficiency, improves traffic efficiency, and eliminates the need for drivers to frequently restart the engine in a short period, thus enhancing the driver's driving experience.

[0094] Figure 2 A flowchart illustrating an engine control method provided in this application embodiment. Figure 2 In one possible example, such as Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment... Figure 1 Based on the embodiments, a detailed explanation is provided on how to control the start-stop of the vehicle's engine according to the current vehicle speed. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0095] S201. Display the interactive interface on the vehicle's display device.

[0096] Specifically, the controller can display an interactive interface for user interaction through the vehicle's display device.

[0097] S202, Receive the first preset duration, the second preset duration, and the vehicle start-stop mode input by the user in the interactive interface.

[0098] Specifically, users can input the corresponding first preset duration, second preset duration, and vehicle start-stop mode to the controller through the interactive interface. The first preset duration refers to the maximum waiting time for the engine to continue running when the vehicle is idling or parked; the second preset duration refers to the necessary time for the engine to start up after it has stopped.

[0099] S203. Obtain the vehicle start-stop mode and automatic parking function status.

[0100] S204. When the vehicle start-stop mode is user-controlled mode and the automatic parking function is enabled, the vehicle's display device displays a stop ready information and enters the autonomous stop state.

[0101] S205. In autonomous shutdown mode, receive shutdown command from user.

[0102] S206. In response to a stop command, the vehicle's current speed is detected in real time.

[0103] S203-S206 are similar to S101-S104, and the same parts will not be described again in this embodiment.

[0104] S207. When the current vehicle speed is less than or equal to the preset vehicle speed, extract the remaining red light duration, the number of waiting vehicles, and the road congestion situation from the information of the road segment ahead.

[0105] Specifically, the preset speed can be set to 0 meters per second, meaning the vehicle is idling or stationary. The controller can estimate the vehicle's waiting time based on road information ahead when the current speed is less than or equal to the preset speed. This includes:

[0106] The controller can acquire real-time road information ahead of the vehicle via a telematics box (TBox), Global Positioning System (GPS), satellite navigation system, or high-precision map. When it detects that the vehicle is idling or stopped, it extracts the remaining red light time, the number of waiting vehicles, and traffic congestion status from the acquired road information ahead.

[0107] S208. Determine the passage time for a single vehicle based on road congestion conditions.

[0108] Specifically, the controller can determine the time it takes for a single vehicle to leave a congested section of road based on the traffic congestion information extracted from the road conditions ahead.

[0109] S209. Calculate the congestion waiting time based on the number of waiting vehicles and the passage time of a single vehicle.

[0110] Specifically, the controller can use the product of the number of vehicles waiting ahead and the time it takes for a single vehicle to pass as the congestion waiting time.

[0111] S210. The sum of the congestion waiting time and the remaining red light time shall be determined as the vehicle waiting time.

[0112] Specifically, the controller can further sum the congestion waiting time and the remaining red light time to obtain the vehicle waiting time.

[0113] S211. When the vehicle waiting time is greater than or equal to a first preset time, obtain the vehicle's battery power.

[0114] In this embodiment of the application, the controller can control the engine to stop running when the vehicle waiting time is greater than or equal to a first preset time, specifically including:

[0115] When the vehicle's waiting time is greater than or equal to a first preset time, the controller can obtain the vehicle's battery charge (State of Charge, SOC) from the Battery Management System (BMS) through the vehicle's internal communication network.

[0116] S212. When the battery level is greater than or equal to the preset battery level, control the engine to stop running.

[0117] In this embodiment, the preset battery level can refer to the battery level required to restart the engine, such as 30% or 40%, etc., without specific limitations. The specific preset battery level can be set comprehensively based on factors such as engine type, displacement, number of cylinders, starter efficiency, battery condition (such as age, charging status, capacity, etc.) and starting conditions (such as cold start or hot start, normal temperature start or ultra-low temperature start).

[0118] Specifically, the controller can stop the engine when the vehicle's battery charge is greater than or equal to a preset charge level, thereby saving fuel and reducing emissions when the vehicle is idling or parked and the waiting time is greater than or equal to a first preset time.

[0119] S213. When the battery level is lower than the preset battery level, control the engine to continue running.

[0120] Specifically, the controller can also keep the engine running when the vehicle's battery charge is lower than a preset charge level, so as to charge the battery by continuously running the engine, thereby maintaining the vehicle's power needs and ensuring that the vehicle has enough power to meet driving requirements.

[0121] S214. When the current vehicle speed is greater than the preset vehicle speed and / or the vehicle waiting time is less than the first preset time, control the engine to continue running.

[0122] Specifically, when the controller detects that the vehicle is not idling or parked, and / or the vehicle waiting time is less than a first preset time, the controller can determine that the vehicle is in normal driving condition and / or the vehicle is only temporarily parked. In this case, the controller can control the engine to continue running, thereby avoiding the impact of frequent engine start-stop on the vehicle's traffic efficiency and the driver's driving experience, and avoiding wear and tear on the engine and starting system caused by frequent engine start-stop.

[0123] S215. The difference between the vehicle waiting time and the second preset time is determined as the engine start time.

[0124] Specifically, the second preset duration is a time margin for starting the engine in advance. In other words, the controller can stop the engine when the vehicle is idling or parked, the vehicle's waiting time is greater than or equal to the first preset duration, and the battery charge is greater than or equal to a preset charge level. Furthermore, it can determine the engine start time after the engine has stopped running. Specifically, the engine start time can be the difference between the vehicle's waiting time and the second preset duration (the necessary time for the engine start-up process).

[0125] S216. When the engine start time is reached, control the vehicle's engine to start.

[0126] Specifically, after the engine stops running, when the engine start time arrives, the controller can control the vehicle's engine to start in a timely manner, avoiding the impact of engine delay caused by starting the engine after the vehicle has been waiting for a certain period of time, which would affect the vehicle's traffic efficiency, thereby further improving the vehicle's traffic efficiency.

[0127] This application provides an engine control method that displays an interactive interface on the vehicle's display device, allowing the user to set a first preset duration, a second preset duration, and a vehicle start-stop mode. When the vehicle's battery charge is lower than a preset level, the engine continues to run, charging the battery and maintaining the vehicle's power requirements, ensuring sufficient power for driving. By controlling the engine to continue running during normal driving and / or when the vehicle is only briefly stopped, frequent engine start-stop operations avoid impacting vehicle traffic efficiency and driver experience, and prevent wear and tear on the engine and starting system. Furthermore, by controlling the engine to start promptly after it stops running, the method avoids delayed engine start caused by waiting time, thus improving overall vehicle traffic efficiency.

[0128] In this embodiment of the invention, electronic devices or main control devices can be divided into functional modules according to the above method examples. For example, each function can be divided into its own functional modules, or two or more functions can be integrated into one processing unit. The integrated unit can be implemented in hardware or as a software functional module. It should be noted that the module division in this embodiment of the invention is illustrative and only represents one logical functional division; other division methods may be used in actual implementation.
