[0049] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0050] Example 1

[0051] like Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a parking lock control method in an embodiment of the present application. The parking lock control method provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to a parking lot control system. The parking lot control system includes a parking lot management system and multiple lane cameras. The method specifically includes the following steps:

[0052] Step S110, the parking lot management system is used to associate the directly locked parking spaces with the lane cameras, and send the directly locked parking spaces to the lane cameras, wherein one lane camera is associated with a plurality of directly locked parking spaces.

[0053] In one embodiment, the parking lot management system may include an operation and maintenance platform and a parking space management platform from the perspective of functional division. The operation and maintenance platform is used to treat parking spaces within a first preset control distance range from the lane camera as directly locked parking spaces associated with the lane camera based on the distance relationship between the lane camera and surrounding parking spaces.

[0054] After finding the directly locked parking space associated with the lane camera through the operation and maintenance platform, the directly locked parking space will be sent to the lane camera to ensure that the lane camera can subsequently perform the corresponding locking operation according to the locking relationship, and the association between the lane camera and its corresponding directly locked parking space will be saved to the parking space management platform, so that the parking space management platform can monitor the lane camera and its corresponding directly locked parking space in real time, and update the parking space status (such as idle, occupied, etc.) in real time through the association relationship, where one lane camera is associated with multiple directly locked parking spaces.

[0055] It should be noted that the lane camera is set to face the direction of the vehicle, and is used to collect vehicle information of the vehicle approaching the lane camera. Figure 2 As shown, lane camera A (lane camera is the location camera in the figure) faces the direction of the vehicle (to the left), A01-A12 and B01-B12 are directly controlled parking spaces, where the control of the parking space lock includes locking control and unlocking control.

[0056] Understandably, the step of establishing the association relationship may include: assigning a unique identifier to each directly controlled parking space, determining the identifier of the lane camera associated with the directly controlled parking space, and binding the identifier of the directly controlled parking space and the identifier of the lane camera corresponding to it. The above-mentioned relationship binding step is shown only as an example, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0057] The above method determines the directly locked parking spaces according to the distance relationship between the lane camera and the surrounding parking spaces through the parking lot management system, which greatly reduces the workload of manual configuration and improves the efficiency of parking space management. Through the association between the lane camera and the directly locked parking spaces, precise control of the parking spaces can be achieved, realizing the intelligent and automated parking space management.

[0058] Step S120, the lane camera identifies the target vehicle information of the moving target vehicle, and determines the target reserved parking space of the target vehicle according to a preset matching rule.

[0059] Understandably, the lane camera will first capture and identify the information of the target vehicle in motion (such as license plate number, vehicle type, etc.), and then determine the target reserved parking space for the target vehicle based on preset matching rules.

[0060] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the method for determining the target reservation information of the target vehicle according to the preset matching rule includes:

[0061] Step S121, the lane camera matches the target reservation information corresponding to the target vehicle from the locally stored reservation parking space information according to the target vehicle information. If the match is successful, the target reservation parking space is in the directly locked parking space.

[0062] Step S122, the lane camera sends the target vehicle information to the parking lot management system, receives the target reservation information fed back by the parking lot management system, and determines whether the vehicle is in a directly locked parking space according to the target reservation information.

[0063] In step S121, the lane camera will search for a reservation record that matches the target vehicle information in the locally stored reservation parking space information. If the match is successful, it means that the target vehicle has reserved a parking space, and the reserved parking space is within the direct lockable parking space range of the lane camera. The reservation information stored in the lane camera is sent in advance by the parking lot management system to the corresponding location camera. This method can improve the matching speed of the location camera for the reserved vehicle information to a certain extent and improve the user experience. Of course, in other embodiments, the location camera may not receive the reservation information sent by the parking lot management system in advance, but directly obtain the reservation result sent by the parking lot management system. Of course, in other embodiments, in order to avoid the location camera's reservation information being updated in time and missing the lockable event, when the location camera does not match the corresponding reservation information locally, it can query the reservation information again through the parking lot management system.

[0064] In step S122, if the lane camera does not find a reservation record matching the target vehicle information locally, or the lane camera does not have the ability to store reservation information locally, the lane camera will send the target vehicle information to the parking lot management system. The parking space management platform of the parking lot management system stores vehicle information of different vehicles and corresponding parking space reservation information in its database. The parking space management platform receives the target vehicle information sent by the lane camera, searches for target reservation information matching the target vehicle information in its database, and feeds this target reservation information back to the lane camera. The lane camera determines whether the target reserved parking space of the target vehicle is in the directly locked parking space based on the received target reservation information.

[0065] The above method directly identifies the target vehicle through the lane camera and matches the reserved parking space information, which can quickly determine whether the vehicle has reserved a parking space, thereby speeding up the process of vehicles entering the parking lot and reducing waiting time. The linkage between the lane camera and the parking lot management system makes parking space management more intelligent, reduces manual intervention, and improves overall management efficiency. In addition, the above method provides three optional implementation methods (local matching, parking lot management system matching, and local matching + parking lot management system matching) to meet the needs of parking lots of different sizes and configurations. For small or medium-sized parking lots, lane cameras can be matched locally, reducing dependence on the parking lot management system; for large or complex parking lots, global matching can be performed through the parking lot management system to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information.

[0066] Step S130: If the target reserved parking space is in a directly locked parking space, the lane camera controls the parking space lock on the target reserved parking space to perform a locking operation.

[0067] Understandably, when the target reserved parking space is in the parking space directly controlled by the lane camera, the lane camera sends a locking control signal to the parking lock on the target reserved parking space. This control signal is usually transmitted via a wireless network (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc.) or a wired network (such as Ethernet, RS-485, etc.).

[0068] After receiving the control signal from the lane camera, the parking lock will execute the locking operation. The internal mechanism of the parking lock (such as the motor, transmission mechanism, etc.) will be activated to make the parking lock drop to the locked position, thereby controlling the parking lock to lock in advance. When the owner is ready to park, he no longer needs to wait and confirm whether the parking lock is locked normally, and can know the locking status of the parking lock in advance.

[0069] The linkage control of the lane camera and the parking space lock in the above method can ensure the exclusivity of the reserved parking space and prevent other unreserved vehicles from occupying the parking space. Through automated control, the need for manual management of parking spaces is reduced, labor costs are reduced, and the possibility of human errors is also reduced.

[0070] Preferably, the parking lot locking system further comprises at least one locking device, which is arranged behind the lane camera relative to the vehicle's driving direction. Figure 4 As shown, the parking lock control method of this embodiment also includes:

[0071] Step S140: The parking lot management system is further used to associate the indirect locking parking spaces of the locking control device and send the indirect locking parking spaces to the locking control device.

[0072] Step S150: If the target reserved parking space is not in the directly locked parking space, the lane camera determines the target locking device corresponding to the target reserved parking space from the parking lot management system, and notifies the target locking device to control the parking space lock on the target reserved parking space to perform the locking operation.

[0073] It should be noted that due to unstable communication caused by long distance or signal interference, some indirect control parking spaces cannot be directly controlled by lane cameras and need to be controlled by control devices. The control device in this embodiment can be a device with visual ability or a device without visual ability, but both have wireless control capability.

[0074] Understandably, the operation and maintenance platform in the parking lot management system is also used to use the parking spaces within the second preset control distance range from the locking device as indirect locking parking spaces associated with the locking device based on the distance relationship between the locking device and the surrounding parking spaces. The second preset control distance range is greater than the first preset control distance range, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown.

[0075] After finding the indirect locking parking space associated with the lane camera through the operation and maintenance platform, the indirect locking control parking space will be sent to the corresponding locking device to ensure that the locking device can subsequently perform the corresponding locking operation according to the locking relationship, and the association between the locking device and its corresponding indirect locking parking space will be saved to the parking space management platform, so that the parking space management platform can monitor the locking device and its corresponding indirect locking parking space in real time, and update the parking space status (such as idle, occupied, etc.) in real time through the association relationship. Among them, one locking device can correspond to multiple indirect locking parking spaces.

[0076] If the lane camera recognizes the target vehicle and finds that the target reserved parking space is not in the directly locked parking space, the lane camera will send the target vehicle information to the parking lot management system, and receive the locking device information returned by the parking lot management system, determine the target locking device corresponding to the target reserved parking space, and then notify the target locking device to control the parking lock on the target reserved parking space to perform the locking operation.

[0077] The above method enables more parking spaces in the parking lot to be effectively managed and controlled by setting up locking devices and associating them with indirect locking parking spaces, even if these parking spaces are outside the direct locking range of the lane camera. The coordinated work of the locking devices and lane cameras enables the system to flexibly adjust the locking strategy according to the distribution of parking spaces and vehicle flow, thus improving the adaptability and flexibility of the system.

[0078] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 7 As shown, step S150 also includes:

[0079] Step S151, determining whether the target locking device is a locking device associated with the lane camera.

[0080] Step S152: If yes, a notification is sent to the target locking device.

[0081] Understandably, after determining the target locking device, it is necessary to further determine whether the target locking device is the locking device associated with the lane camera. If so, the lane camera constructs a locking notification (for example, it may include information such as the locking device identification and locking action), and sends the locking notification to the target locking device through an appropriate communication method (such as a wireless signal). After receiving and parsing the notification, the target locking device will control the parking lock on the target reserved parking space to perform the corresponding locking operation.

[0082] By verifying whether the target locking device is the device associated with the lane camera, it can ensure that the locking notification is sent to the correct recipient, avoiding erroneous instructions caused by misoperation or communication interference. It can also effectively increase the security of the system, prevent unauthorized devices from receiving and executing locking operations, and protect the normal operation of parking locks and safe parking of vehicles in the parking lot. By directly communicating with the target locking device, the interference and delay in the intermediate links are reduced, and the system response speed and execution efficiency are improved. At the same time, by reasonably configuring the number of lane cameras and the locking devices associated with each zone camera in different areas of the parking lot, the range and distance of the direct and indirect locking of the lane camera can be adjusted to avoid the problem of the zone camera indirectly controlling the locking of the distant parking lock, causing the parking space to be occupied by unreserved vehicles.

[0083] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the lane camera can directly send the lock notification to the target lock control device. At this time, the lane camera directly sends the lock notification to the target lock control device C; Figure 6 As shown, it can also be forwarded to the target locking device through the intermediate locking device. At this time, the lane camera first sends the locking notification to the locking device C. At this time, the locking device C serves as the intermediate locking device, responsible for receiving the locking notification from the lane camera and forwarding it to the target locking device D.

[0084] It should be noted that Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The parking spaces shown are spaced a certain distance apart, but in actual application, the parking spaces may be continuous or discontinuous.

[0085] It should be noted that, although in the above example, the lock control notification is transmitted through the path of lane camera A → lock control device C → lock control device D, in some cases, this path can be adjusted as needed. For example, more intermediate devices can be added, or the transmission order of the instructions can be changed to ensure that the instructions can smoothly reach the lock control device belonging to the service parking space.

[0086] In the system, lane camera A can control 0-N lock control devices, which means that the system can add or delete lock control devices according to actual needs without making a lot of modifications to lane camera A, which has high scalability and flexibility. In addition, the indirect lock control method allows lock control instructions to be transmitted through multiple paths, thereby improving the fault tolerance of the system. Even if a path fails, the lane camera can still send lock control instructions through other paths.

[0087] It is understandable that after the locking device completes the locking operation, a real-time monitoring mechanism will be activated. This mechanism continuously monitors the parking lock status of the service parking space through sensors or other detection means to ensure that the parking lock on the service parking space has been correctly locked. The locking device sends the monitored parking lock status (for example, locked or unlocked) to the lane camera. After the lane camera receives the parking lock status sent by the locking device, it will parse and judge. If the parking lock status is still in the unlocked state (that is, unlocked state), it means that the locking operation may have failed or there is a fault in the parking lock. At this time, it is necessary to resend a locking command to the locking device. After receiving the resent locking command, the locking device will try to perform the locking operation again and continue to monitor the status of the parking lock.

[0088] It should be noted that if the lane camera sends a locking command to the locking control device more than a certain number of times and the parking space lock is still in the unlocked state, the lane camera can generate a fault alarm prompt message and send it to the relevant personnel of the parking lot for further manual intervention or troubleshooting.

[0089] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 8 As shown, after the lane camera or the target lock control device controls the parking lock on the target reserved parking space to perform the locking operation, it also includes:

[0090] Step S160, adjusting the parking space status of the target reserved parking space of the target vehicle to a parking status.

[0091] It is understandable that the lane camera or the target locking device has performed a locking operation on the parking lock of the target reserved parking space, which means that the parking space has been reserved or locked for a specific target vehicle. After the parking lock is locked, the system needs to adjust the parking state of the target reserved parking space of the target vehicle to the parking state, which means that the system believes that the target vehicle has been parked in the target reserved parking space, or at least the target reserved parking space has been reserved for the target vehicle and is ready to park.

[0092] This state adjustment is crucial to the overall operation of the parking management system because it involves the allocation, monitoring and scheduling of parking resources. Logically speaking, the locking operation of the parking lock is the beginning of the parking reservation, and the adjustment of the parking state to "in-place state" is the continuation and confirmation of this process. This operation logic ensures that the parking management system can accurately track and record the use of each parking space.

[0093] like Fig. 9 As shown, when the lane camera recognizes the target vehicle information of the target vehicle, and the parking space status of the target reserved parking space corresponding to the target vehicle information is in the parking space status, it also includes:

[0094] Step S170, controlling the lane camera or target lock control device corresponding to the target reserved parking space to perform a locking operation on the parking space lock on the target reserved parking space.

[0095] Understandably, when the parking space status of the target reserved parking space corresponding to the target vehicle information is in the occupied state, it means that the system has reserved the parking space and is now confirming whether the target vehicle has actually been parked.

[0096] It should be noted that the "in-place status" here is not directly equivalent to the target vehicle being actually parked, but means that the parking space has been reserved or deemed to be occupied or the parking lock corresponding to the parking space has been locked. At this time, it is usually considered that the vehicle has been parked in the corresponding reserved parking space. After the target vehicle leaves the parking space, it is necessary to perform a locking operation on the parking lock on the target reserved parking space. The locking operation means that the target vehicle has completed the parking process. At this time, when the lane camera in the parking lot recognizes the target vehicle information again, and the reserved parking space corresponding to the target vehicle information is in the "in-place status", it is considered that the vehicle has completed the parking preparation position. At this time, it is necessary to control the parking lock of the reserved parking space corresponding to the target vehicle information to lock.

[0097] Through the automated locking operation, the above method allows the system to track the usage of parking spaces in real time, release vacant parking spaces in a timely manner, and improve the turnover rate and utilization rate of parking spaces.

[0098] The parking lock control method provided in the embodiment of the present application associates the direct lock parking spaces of the lane camera through the parking lot management system, and sends the direct lock control parking spaces to the lane camera, wherein one lane camera is associated with multiple direct lock parking spaces; the lane camera identifies the target vehicle information of the target vehicle in motion, and determines the target reserved parking space of the target vehicle according to the preset matching rules; if the target reserved parking space is in the direct lock parking space, the lane camera controls the parking lock on the target reserved parking space to perform the lock operation. The present application associates multiple lane cameras and their corresponding direct lock parking spaces through the parking lot management system, thereby realizing the centralized control of multiple parking locks, which significantly improves the parking space management efficiency of the parking lot, reduces the parking waiting time and observation time of the car owner, and improves the convenience and comfort of parking.

[0099] Example 2

[0100] like Fig.10 , which is a schematic diagram of the structure of a parking lot locking system 1000 in an embodiment of the present application, wherein the system includes a parking lot management system 1010 and a plurality of lane cameras 1020;

[0101] The parking lot management system 1010 is used to associate the directly locked parking spaces of the lane cameras 1020 and send the directly locked parking spaces to the lane cameras 1020, wherein one lane camera 1020 is associated with a plurality of directly locked parking spaces;

[0102] Lane camera 1020, used to identify target vehicle information of a moving target vehicle and determine a target reserved parking space of the target vehicle according to a preset matching rule;

[0103] If the target reserved parking space is in a directly locked parking space, the lane camera 1020 is also used to control the parking space lock on the target reserved parking space to perform a locking operation.

[0104] The parking lot lock control system provided in the embodiment of the present application realizes centralized control of multiple parking space locks by associating multiple lane cameras and their corresponding directly locked parking spaces through the parking lot management system. This significantly improves the parking space management efficiency of the parking lot, reduces the parking waiting time and observation time of car owners, and improves the convenience and comfort of parking.

[0105] Example 3

[0106] The present application also provides a computer device. Fig.11 , Fig.11 This is a basic structural block diagram of the computer device in this embodiment.
