[0022] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0024] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an embodiment of a method for configuring an instrument in a vehicle is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that shown here.

[0025] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a method for configuring an instrument in a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0026] Step S101, obtaining material information of the vehicle to be manufactured.

[0027] In the technical solution provided in the above step S101 of the present invention, the material information is used to indicate the materials required to manufacture the vehicle to be manufactured, wherein the material information may also be referred to as a bill of materials (BOM). For example, the material information may include but is not limited to: material number, material type, material name, specification model, etc. The vehicle to be manufactured may also be referred to as a vehicle in the following content.

[0028] In this embodiment, the material information of the vehicle to be manufactured is obtained, for example, through a product data management system. This is only an illustrative example and does not limit the specific method of obtaining the material information of the vehicle to be manufactured.

[0029] For example, when building a vehicle data system, the product data management system is used to add classification attributes of the vehicle's fuel type and number of gas cylinders. The fuel type and number of gas cylinders in the classification attributes correspond one-to-one to the configuration item information in the instrument cluster diagnostic protocol; thus, the product data management system is used to obtain material information.

[0030] Optionally, obtaining material information of the vehicle to be manufactured can help formulate a more accurate production plan and ensure that resources are properly allocated at each production stage.

[0031] Step S102: determining energy information of the vehicle to be manufactured based on the material information.

[0032] In the technical solution provided in the above step S102 of the present invention, the energy information is used to indicate the energy required for the vehicle to be manufactured.

[0033] In this embodiment, the energy information of the vehicle to be manufactured is determined according to the material information of the vehicle to be manufactured obtained in step S101. For example, the material information is parsed by a commercial vehicle BOM system to determine the energy information of the vehicle to be manufactured. This is only an example and does not limit the specific method for determining the energy information of the vehicle to be manufactured.

[0034] Optionally, the energy information may include but is not limited to: fuel oil and gas and their specific types and gas cylinder quantity classification attributes, etc.

[0035] For example, the commercial vehicle BOM system receives the whole vehicle data from the product data management system, that is, the material information is parsed to determine the vehicle fuel type and gas cylinder quantity classification attribute information of the vehicle.

[0036] Optionally, by analyzing the material information, the energy information required by the vehicle can be accurately identified, so that the vehicle can be configured with appropriate instruments to ensure that the instruments can correctly display the energy status of the vehicle.

[0037] Step S103: configuring instruments for the vehicle to be manufactured based on the energy information.

[0038] In the technical solution provided in the above step S103 of the present invention, the instrument is used to display energy information, wherein the instrument may also be called a combination instrument.

[0039] In this embodiment, after the energy information of the vehicle to be manufactured is determined in step S102, the instrument is configured for the vehicle to be manufactured according to the energy information. For example, when the production vehicle is off the production line, the parameter information of the configuration item in the instrument is automatically flashed by the off-line flashing system. This is only an example and does not limit the specific method of configuring the instrument for the vehicle to be manufactured.

[0040] For example, after the commercial vehicle BOM system parses the energy information of the whole vehicle, the offline flashing system reads and obtains the energy information. When the whole vehicle is produced and rolled off the line, the commercial vehicle BOM system connects to the offline flashing system to automatically flash the configuration information to the instrument cluster assembly controller, thereby achieving the purpose of configuring the instrument.

[0041] Optionally, by configuring the instrument cluster based on specific energy information, you can ensure that what the instrument cluster displays accurately matches the vehicle's energy needs and usage. This improves the accuracy of the information, helping the driver to better manage the vehicle's energy use.

[0042] Step S104, outputting energy information to the meter.

[0043] In the technical solution provided in the above step S104 of the present invention, after configuring the instrument to be manufactured in the vehicle in step S103, the energy information is output to the instrument.

[0044] In this embodiment, by outputting energy information to the instrument, the instrument cluster can accurately display information related to the fuel of the entire vehicle, so that users can obtain energy information in a timely manner, which can help drivers avoid emergencies such as breakdowns caused by insufficient energy and improve driving safety.

[0045] Optionally, outputting energy information to the instrument cluster not only helps the driver better control the vehicle, but also improves the driving experience and safety, while also contributing to energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0046] It should be noted that the above embodiment can be implemented by a commercial vehicle multi-fuel accurate display system.

[0047] In this embodiment, the material information of the vehicle to be manufactured is obtained, wherein the material information is used to indicate the materials required to manufacture the vehicle to be manufactured; based on the material information, the energy information of the vehicle to be manufactured is determined, wherein the energy information is used to indicate the energy required for the vehicle to be manufactured; based on the energy information, the vehicle to be manufactured is configured with an instrument, wherein the instrument is used to display the energy information; and the energy information is output to the instrument. The present application determines the energy information through the material information of the vehicle to be manufactured, and thus configures the vehicle's instruments according to the energy information, thereby avoiding the situation where the instrument universality is low by simply increasing the instrument models. At the same time, since the present application comprehensively configures the instruments during the vehicle manufacturing process, the purpose of comprehensively configuring the vehicle instruments is achieved, thereby solving the technical problem of low universality of the instruments during the vehicle manufacturing process, and achieving the technical effect of improving the universality of the instruments during the vehicle manufacturing process.

[0048] The above method of this embodiment is further introduced below.

[0049] As an optional implementation method, step S103, configuring instruments for the vehicle to be manufactured based on energy information, includes: determining configuration information of the vehicle to be manufactured based on the energy information, wherein the configuration information is used to indicate parameter information of the instruments configured for the vehicle to be manufactured; and configuring instruments for the vehicle to be manufactured according to the configuration information.

[0050] In this embodiment, the configuration information of the vehicle to be manufactured is determined based on the energy information. For example, the energy information is parsed through a commercial vehicle BOM system to determine the configuration information of the vehicle to be manufactured. This is only an illustrative example and does not limit the specific method for determining the configuration information of the vehicle to be manufactured.

[0051] Optionally, the configuration information includes, but is not limited to: fuel oil and gas and their specific types and gas cylinder quantity configuration parameter information.

[0052] For example, the commercial vehicle BOM system receives material information from the product data management system and parses it to obtain the fuel type and gas cylinder quantity classification attribute values. For example, the fuel type can be divided into: fuel oil (marked as 00), dual-fuel LNG+CNG (marked as 01), LNG (marked as 10), CNG (marked as 11) and reserved, the number of LNG gas cylinders: 0 (marked as 000), 1 (marked as 001), 2 (marked as 010), 3 (marked as 011), 4 (marked as 100) and reserved, the number of CNG gas cylinders: 0 (marked as 00), 1 (marked as 01), 2 (marked as 10), 3 (marked as 11) and reserved, etc.

[0053] Optionally, after the configuration information of the vehicle to be manufactured is determined, instruments are configured for the vehicle to be manufactured according to the configuration information. The specific configuration method is described later.

[0054] Optionally, by configuring the instrument according to the vehicle's energy information (such as fuel type, battery capacity, energy consumption efficiency, etc.), energy efficiency can be better optimized, allowing the driver to understand the vehicle's energy consumption in real time and adopt a more energy-saving driving style.

[0055] As an optional implementation manner, configuring instruments for the vehicle to be manufactured according to the configuration information includes: obtaining the production status of the vehicle to be manufactured; in response to the production status being an offline status, configuring instruments for the vehicle to be manufactured according to the configuration information.

[0056] In this embodiment, the production status of the vehicle to be manufactured is obtained. When the production status of the vehicle to be manufactured is an offline status, it usually means that the vehicle has completed all manufacturing steps on the production line, has been removed from the production line, and is ready for final quality inspection, configuration or delivery. Based on this, instruments are configured for the vehicle to be manufactured according to the configuration information.

[0057] For example, when the vehicle is off the production line, the offline flashing system is connected to automatically flash the configuration information to the instrument cluster assembly controller.

[0058] Optionally, configuring the instrumentation as the vehicle rolls off the production line allows for better quality control, ensuring that the instrumentation functionality and display meet specifications and standards.

[0059] As an optional implementation method, the method for configuring the instrument in the vehicle also includes: obtaining the fault status of the instrument; in response to the fault status of the instrument being an abnormal state, obtaining the manufacturing status of the vehicle to be manufactured; in response to the manufacturing status being a manufacturing completion state, obtaining the replaced new instrument and configuration information; and configuring the new instrument for the vehicle to be manufactured according to the configuration information.

[0060] In this embodiment, the fault status of the instrument is obtained. When the fault status of the instrument is an abnormal state, it means that the instrument is faulty at this time. Based on this, the manufacturing status of the vehicle to be manufactured is obtained, and further processing methods are determined according to the manufacturing status of the vehicle to be manufactured.

[0061] Optionally, when the manufacturing status of the vehicle to be manufactured is the manufacturing completion status, it means that the vehicle has left the factory. When an instrument fails, it needs to be replaced with a new instrument. Based on this, the replaced new instrument and configuration information are obtained; thus, the new instrument is configured for the vehicle to be manufactured according to the configuration information.

[0062] For example, if the instrument fails during subsequent use of the vehicle and needs to be repaired or replaced, the service station can use the diagnostic instrument to refresh the configuration information of the instrument to ensure that the instrument can accurately display the fuel-related information of the entire vehicle.

[0063] Optionally, when the manufacturing status of the vehicle to be manufactured is the manufacturing completion status, the replaced new instrument and configuration information are obtained; thereby, the new instrument is configured for the vehicle to be manufactured according to the configuration information. The present application utilizes the existing design and production system and instrument cluster to realize the accurate display of the fuel information of the whole vehicle, without the need for additional development of configuration flashing tools, thus bringing benefits to users and reducing development costs.

[0064] As an optional embodiment, the method for configuring an instrument in a vehicle further includes: in response to the manufacturing status being an unfinished manufacturing status, determining and outputting fault information, wherein the fault information is used to indicate a fault that has occurred in the instrument.

[0065] In this embodiment, when the manufacturing status of the vehicle to be manufactured is an unfinished manufacturing state, it means that the vehicle is in a manufacturing state. At this time, the instrument may have problems such as unqualified quality. Based on this, the fault information of the instrument is determined and the determined fault information is output.

[0066] Optionally, by identifying and resolving instrument failures early, problems can be corrected promptly during production, thereby improving the overall production quality of the vehicle.

[0067] As an optional implementation method, step S102, based on the material information, determines the energy information of the vehicle to be manufactured, including: parsing the material information to obtain at least one of the following energy information: fuel, gas and gas cylinder quantity.

[0068] In this embodiment, the material information is parsed to obtain energy information. For example, energy information is extracted from vehicle material information using natural language processing technology through a commercial vehicle BOM system. This is only an illustrative example and does not limit the specific method of obtaining the energy information.

[0069] Optionally, by parsing the material information and determining the energy information, the instrument is configured according to the energy information, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the accuracy of the instrument configuration.

[0070] It should be noted that the above embodiment can be implemented by a commercial vehicle multi-fuel accurate display system.

[0071] The method for configuring instruments in a vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application obtains material information of the vehicle to be manufactured, wherein the material information is used to indicate the materials required to manufacture the vehicle to be manufactured; based on the material information, determines the energy information of the vehicle to be manufactured, wherein the energy information is used to indicate the energy required for the vehicle to be manufactured; based on the energy information, configures instruments for the vehicle to be manufactured, wherein the instruments are used to display the energy information; and outputs the energy information to the instruments. The present application determines energy information through the material information of the vehicle to be manufactured, thereby configuring the vehicle's instruments according to the energy information, thereby avoiding the situation where the instrument universality is low by simply increasing the instrument models. At the same time, since the present application comprehensively configures the instruments during the vehicle manufacturing process, the purpose of comprehensively configuring the vehicle's instruments is achieved, thereby solving the technical problem of low universality of instruments during the vehicle manufacturing process, and achieving the technical effect of improving the universality of instruments during the vehicle manufacturing process.

[0072] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention is illustrated below in conjunction with preferred implementation modes.

[0073] At present, with the continuous development of technology and users' close attention to fuel costs, there are more and more types of fuel for commercial vehicles, including diesel, liquefied natural gas, compressed natural gas, dual fuel, etc. Natural gas fuel involves single gas cylinders and multiple gas cylinders, and the instrument display methods for different fuel forms and gas cylinder quantities are different. The relevant information of the whole vehicle fuel or gas is important information that users are very concerned about, and it must be displayed accurately. Once the display is wrong or cannot be displayed, it will not only affect the user's driving safety but also cause user complaints.

[0074] In the related art, the problem of inaccurate display of vehicle instruments is usually solved by increasing the instrument models. However, as the number of fuel types and gas cylinders gradually increases, if the instrument models continue to be increased to match, management and technical development will require continuous investment, and the cost of the whole vehicle will continue to increase. At the same time, since the problem of inaccurate display of vehicle instruments is solved only by increasing the instrument models, the universality of the instruments shipped from the vehicle is low. Therefore, there is a technical problem of low universality of instruments in the vehicle manufacturing process.

[0075] With regard to the technical problem of low universality of instruments in the vehicle manufacturing process in the related technology, no effective solution has been proposed so far.

[0076] However, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a method for accurate display of multi-fuel type instruments for commercial vehicles. Starting from the initial configuration of the whole vehicle, when the vehicle product data management system builds the vehicle model configuration, the fuel type and the number of gas cylinders are passed to the commercial vehicle BOM system as product classification attributes, and the accurate fuel type and gas cylinder number configuration is written by the whole vehicle offline. The instrument matches the accurate display according to the written fuel type and gas cylinder number. This achieves the purpose of configuring the vehicle's instrument during the manufacturing process, thereby solving the technical problem of low universality of instruments during vehicle manufacturing and achieving the technical effect of improving the universality of instruments during vehicle manufacturing.

[0077] The embodiments of the present invention are further described below.

[0078] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a commercial vehicle multi-fuel accurate display system provided according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the commercial vehicle multi-fuel accurate display system 200 includes: a product data management system 201, a commercial vehicle BOM system 202, an offline flashing system 203, a combination instrument assembly 204 and a diagnostic instrument 205.

[0079] The product data management system 201 is used to mark vehicle parts.

[0080] Optionally, due to the fuel and gas engines and corresponding sensors, this information can be marked on the component products according to the product classification attributes through the product data management system 201, and the classification attributes can be transmitted to the commercial vehicle BOM system 202.

[0081] The commercial vehicle BOM system 202 is used to parse the vehicle BOM.

[0082] Optionally, the commercial vehicle BOM system 202 can parse out fuel vehicles and gas vehicles based on the vehicle model code and vehicle classification attributes, and can parse out the fuel and gas of the vehicle model and its specific type and configuration information of the number of gas cylinders based on the classification attributes.

[0083] The offline flashing system 203 is used to automatically flash the configuration items of each controller of the vehicle.

[0084] Optionally, after obtaining the BOM information of the whole vehicle, when the whole vehicle is offline, the offline flashing system 203 automatically flashes the configuration items of each controller of the whole vehicle.

[0085] The instrument cluster assembly 204 is used to display vehicle and fuel related information.

[0086] Optionally, the instrument cluster assembly 204 is developed through modularization of the instrument cluster program, and program modules for different fuel types and numbers of gas cylinders can be matched accordingly according to the configuration item information. The instrument cluster assembly 204 can accurately display the fuel type, number of gas cylinders, remaining fuel and corresponding fault information of the entire vehicle.

[0087] Diagnostic instrument 205 is used to flash the configuration instrument.

[0088] Optionally, when a user's meter has a problem and needs to be repaired or replaced, the diagnostic instrument can be used to rewrite the meter with configuration information of fuel and gas, their specific types, and the number of gas cylinders, to ensure that the meter accurately displays the fuel-related information of the entire vehicle.

[0089] Alternatively, a BOM is a detailed list of the components of a product, including all parts, assemblies, and raw materials. For automobile manufacturing, the BOM lists all the parts required for the vehicle, from large body components to small screws and nuts. This list is critical for production planning, purchasing, and inventory management because it helps ensure that all necessary parts are available at the right time and place.

[0090] Alternatively, the vehicle combination instrument is also called a dashboard or instrument panel, which is a control panel facing the driver in the front of the car, and displays various information about the vehicle's operating status. This information usually includes: a speedometer, a tachometer, etc.

[0091] For example, the speedometer is used to display the vehicle's driving speed; the tachometer is used to display the engine's speed; the fuel gauge is used to display the remaining fuel in the tank; the thermometer is used to display the temperature of the engine coolant; the odometer is used to record the total mileage of the vehicle, and sometimes also includes a short-distance mileage recorder; warning lights are used to include various warning signs, such as the engine fault light, oil pressure warning light, ABS warning light, seat belt unfastened indicator light, etc.; other information used in the dashboard of some modern cars can also display such as navigation information, on-board computer information, driving mode, tire pressure monitoring, etc.

[0092] Figure 3 is a flow chart of a method for accurately displaying a multi-fuel type instrument for a commercial vehicle provided in accordance with an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3As shown, the method for accurate display of multi-fuel type instrument for commercial vehicles includes the following steps:

[0093] Step S301, adding fuel type and gas cylinder quantity classification attributes.

[0094] In this embodiment, the vehicle has fuel type and gas cylinder quantity classification attributes added through the product data management system.

[0095] Optionally, when building the data system for the whole vehicle, classification attributes of the fuel type and the number of gas cylinders of the whole vehicle are added to the product data management system, and the fuel type and the number of gas cylinders in the classification attributes correspond one-to-one to the configuration item information in the combination instrument diagnostic protocol.

[0096] Optionally, the fuel and gas type refers to the specific type of fuel or gas used by the product. For example, fuel can include diesel, gasoline, etc., and gas can include natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), etc. Adding this attribute helps identify and classify products, manage and optimize them according to the required fuel type.

[0097] Optionally, the attribute of gas cylinder quantity classification is usually used to describe the number of gas cylinders involved in the product during use or storage.

[0098] Step S302: parsing the classification attribute value corresponding to the classification attribute.

[0099] In this embodiment, the commercial vehicle BOM system parses the classification attribute value corresponding to the classification attribute.

[0100] Optionally, the commercial vehicle BOM system receives the whole vehicle data from the product data management system for parsing, and the classification attribute information of the fuel type and the number of gas cylinders can be parsed out one by one. Table 1 is a schematic table of the correspondence between the classification attributes, production analysis and configuration item information. As shown in Table 1, the classification attribute is parsed to obtain the classification attribute value, and the number in the bracket is the specific value of the configuration item of the corresponding instrument diagnostic protocol.

[0101] Table 1 Schematic table of the correspondence between classification attributes, production analysis and configuration item information

[0102]

[0103] Optionally, as shown in Table 1, the fuel types are divided into: fuel oil (00), dual-fuel LNG+CNG (01), LNG (10), CNG (11) and reserved, the number of LNG cylinders: 0 (000), 1 (001), 2 (010), 3 (011), 4 (100) and reserved, the number of CNG cylinders: 0 (00), 1 (01), 2 (10), 3 (11) and reserved, and the specific configuration information can be queried in the vehicle production BOM.

[0104] Step S303, automatically rewriting configuration information to the instrument.

[0105] In this embodiment, the offline flashing system reads the BOM information of the whole vehicle and automatically flashes the configuration information of the instrument, or flashes the configuration information of the instrument using a diagnostic instrument.

[0106] Optionally, the vehicle information parsed by the commercial vehicle BOM system can be read and obtained by the offline flashing system. When the vehicle is produced and rolled off the production line, the offline flashing system can be connected to automatically flash the configuration information to the instrument cluster assembly controller.

[0107] Optionally, if the instrument fails to function properly during subsequent use of the vehicle and needs to be repaired or replaced, the service station can use a diagnostic instrument to rewrite the configuration information of the instrument to ensure that the instrument can accurately display fuel-related information for the entire vehicle.

[0108] Step S304, accurately displaying the vehicle fuel information according to the configuration information.

[0109] In this embodiment, the instrument panel accurately displays the fuel information of the entire vehicle according to the configuration information.

[0110] Optionally, the instrument cluster assembly has previously developed a program module corresponding to the fuel type and number of gas cylinders based on the configuration information of the diagnostic protocol. When the instrument is automatically flashed with the configuration information by the offline flashing system, the instrument cluster can accurately display the fuel-related information of the whole vehicle, and the whole vehicle can be put into storage normally after passing the inspection.

[0111] Optionally, during the entire vehicle use process, the instrument can ensure accurate display of vehicle fuel-related information to ensure safe driving for users.

[0112] Alternatively, as the number of fuel types and cylinders increases, the general solution is to design a dedicated instrument model for a specific vehicle configuration and fuel type. This ensures that the instrument can accurately reflect the parameters and status of a specific vehicle, such as fuel level, speed, engine speed, etc.

[0113] Alternatively, although this approach can solve the problem, the disadvantage is that different instrument models need to be developed and produced for each configuration, resulting in increased R&D and production costs. In addition, as the number of vehicle types and fuel types continues to increase, managing and maintaining these different models of instruments becomes more complicated.

[0114] In this embodiment, when the BOM of the whole vehicle is assembled, the present application adds fuel and gas and their specific types and the classification attributes of the number of gas cylinders through the product data management system; then the commercial vehicle BOM system parses the vehicle model production BOM list to display the configuration parameter information of fuel and gas and their specific types and the number of gas cylinders; finally, when the production vehicle is off the assembly line, the configuration item parameter information is automatically flashed through the offline flashing system; the instrument accurately displays the fuel-related information of the whole vehicle according to the configuration information, and through the whole vehicle inspection, it is ensured that the vehicle can accurately display the fuel-related information of the whole vehicle when it leaves the factory. If the vehicle instrument is replaced or other problems arise in the future, the diagnostic instrument configuration developed simultaneously can directly flash the fuel information of the whole vehicle to the instrument. Therefore, the present application does not require the instrument to be powered on to identify information such as the fuel type and the number of gas cylinders of the whole vehicle, and it is guaranteed from the production design end that the instrument can accurately display the fuel-related information of the whole vehicle.

[0115] Optionally, the present application not only utilizes the existing design and production system and instrument cluster to realize the accurate display of the fuel information of the whole vehicle, but also does not require the additional development and configuration of flashing tools, thus bringing benefits to users.

[0116] Optionally, the present application performs top-level design from the production design system end to ensure that the vehicle's factory instrumentation can accurately display fuel-related information without increasing the cost of the vehicle and improving the display accuracy of the vehicle's fuel information.

[0117] In this embodiment, starting from the initial configuration of the vehicle, when the vehicle product data management system builds the vehicle model configuration, the fuel type and the number of gas cylinders are passed to the commercial vehicle BOM system as product classification attributes, and the accurate fuel type and gas cylinder number configuration is written by the vehicle offline, and the instrument matches the accurate display according to the written fuel type and gas cylinder number. In this way, the purpose of configuring the vehicle instrument during the manufacturing process is achieved, thereby solving the technical problem of low universality of instruments in the vehicle manufacturing process and achieving the technical effect of improving the universality of instruments in the vehicle manufacturing process.
