[0041] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. To facilitate the understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0042] In order to solve the technical problems of poor control flexibility and low degree of automation of vehicle-mounted inflatable cushions in the prior art, the present application provides an in-vehicle air cushion control method, which can automatically control the inflatable cushions installed at different positions inside the vehicle, thereby greatly improving the flexibility and convenience of using the inflatable cushions.

[0043] Figure 1 A flow chart of a method for controlling an in-vehicle air cushion provided in an embodiment of the present application. This method can be applied to a vehicle (e.g., an intelligent driving vehicle), and the method can be executed by an electronic device (e.g., a controller) on the vehicle, or by other electronic devices (e.g., smart phones, laptops, etc.) connected to the vehicle for communication. In addition, the execution subject of this method can be hardware or software. When the above-mentioned execution subject is hardware, the execution subject can be one or more of the above-mentioned electronic devices. For example, a single electronic device can execute this method, or a plurality of electronic devices can cooperate with each other to execute this method. When the above-mentioned execution subject is software, this method can be implemented as multiple software or software modules, or as a single software or software module. It is not specifically limited here.

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, the method specifically includes:

[0045] Step 101, obtaining an air cushion deployment instruction triggered for at least two air cushions on a vehicle.

[0046] In some embodiments, the user can execute the operation of deploying the air cushion by operating the display screen on the vehicle, or operating an electronic device such as a mobile phone connected to the vehicle, thereby generating an air cushion deployment instruction.

[0047] The vehicle is provided with at least two air cushions, each of which is provided at a different position in the vehicle. For example, an air cushion is installed on the back of each seat in the vehicle, and at least one air cushion can also be installed in the trunk. The user can select the air cushion that he wants to deploy from the various air cushions. For example, the user can select the air cushion at a specific position through the three-dimensional image of the interior of the vehicle on the display screen, and trigger the generation of the air cushion deployment instruction by clicking a button, making a voice, etc.

[0048] Step 102, determining the position of the target air cushion to be deployed according to the air cushion deployment instruction.

[0049] In some embodiments, the target air cushion is the air cushion currently selected to be deployed. The air cushion deployment instruction may include information indicating the position of the target air cushion, such as the air cushion number.

[0050] Step 103, determining whether the area where the target air cushion is located meets the deployment condition.

[0051] In some embodiments, the deployable condition can be set in advance according to the requirements. When the deployable condition is met, it means that the deployment process of the air cushion is not blocked. For example, when the seat is folded, it can be determined that the air cushion located at the seat meets the deployable condition. For another example, if the target air cushion is an air cushion in the trunk, it can be determined that the deployable condition is met when it is detected that there are no obstacles around the target air cushion through image recognition, radar detection, etc.

[0052] Step 104 : If the area meets the deployable condition, the target air cushion is controlled to be transformed from the stored state to the deployed state.

[0053] In some embodiments, each air cushion in the vehicle can be controlled to be unfolded or retracted, and the air cushion can be set in a storage device, and the storage device can include structures such as a motor, a reel, and a protective cover. The electronic device executing this method can send a command to the storage device to enable the storage device to perform an unfolding operation, drive the target air cushion to unfold, and spread it flat in the vehicle interior space.

[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, it shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the air cushion storage device used in the embodiment of the present application. The air cushion storage device includes an air cushion 201, a reel 202, and a protective cover 203. In the stored state, the air cushion is rolled up in the protective cover by the reel. When the unfolding operation is performed, the protective cover can be controlled to open, and the reel can be driven to rotate to unfold the air cushion. Optionally, the protective cover can be provided with electronic locks, electromagnets and other devices, so that the protective cover can be opened in a controlled manner. The reel can rotate under the drive of the motor to drive the air cushion to unfold.

[0055] Optionally, the protective cover may not be driven by electricity, but may be tightened by an elastic member. When performing the air cushion deployment operation, the inflator may be controlled to fill a small amount of gas into the air cushion, the air cushion expands, the protective cover is forced to open, and the air cushion is deployed under the action of the gas pressure.

[0056] Step 105, controlling the target air cushion to perform an inflation operation so that the target air cushion reaches an inflated state.

[0057] In some embodiments, the inflation port of the target air cushion can be connected to an inflation device, and the electronic device executing the method sends an inflation instruction to the inflation device, and the inflation device can inflate the target air cushion according to the inflation instruction. When the state of the target air cushion reaches the stop inflation condition, the electronic device controls the inflation device to stop inflation.

[0058] like Figure 3A and Figure 3B As shown, it shows schematic diagrams of the air cushion before it is deployed and after it is deployed and inflated.

[0059] Optionally, in this embodiment, the electronic device can also control the inflated air cushion to return to the stowed state. For example, the user can control the target air cushion to deflate (for example, control the air pump connected to the target air cushion to perform an air pumping operation) by operating the display screen on the vehicle or a mobile phone or other device connected to the vehicle. Then, the control is performed as follows. Figure 2 The motor connected to the reel shown rotates to roll up the target air cushion. Figure 2 The protective cover shown can be tightened and closed under the action of the elastic component, or the electronic device can control the operation of the motor and other components on the protective cover to close the protective cover, thereby restoring it to the storage state.

[0060] The in-vehicle air cushion control method provided in the embodiment of the present application obtains an air cushion deployment command triggered by at least two air cushions on the vehicle, determines the position of the target air cushion to be deployed according to the air cushion deployment command, and controls the target air cushion to be converted from a storage state to a deployment state if the area where the target air cushion is located meets the deployable conditions, and finally controls the target air cushion to perform an inflation operation so that the target air cushion reaches an inflated state. The embodiment of the present application realizes the arrangement of multiple air cushions on the vehicle, each of which corresponds to a different area, so that it is possible to flexibly select which areas can be used as the position of the inflatable bed, effectively utilize the in-vehicle space to configure the inflatable bed, and at the same time, there is no need for the user to manually operate the air cushion, thereby improving the convenience of air cushion control.

[0061] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, step 105 includes:

[0062] Step 1051, displaying the air cushion inflation control interface on a preset display screen.

[0063] The display screen may be a central control screen on the vehicle or a display screen of other electronic devices connected to the vehicle (such as a mobile phone display screen, etc.). The user can use the inflation control interface to select a target air cushion, control the state of the air cushion, and view the inflation state of the air cushion.

[0064] Step 1052, in response to the user using the air cushion inflation control interface to perform an inflation operation, controlling a preset inflation device to inflate the target air cushion.

[0065] The user can use the air cushion control interface to perform inflation operations. For example, the user can click the inflation button on the interface to start the inflation operation, and can also use the interface to perform configuration operations such as setting the inflation volume, and use the interface to perform air cushion folding operations, etc.

[0066] Step 1053: Display the inflation status information of the target air cushion on the air cushion inflation control interface.

[0067] The above-mentioned inflation status information can be used to indicate the current inflation progress, inflation amount, etc. The inflation status information can include various forms of information. For example, the current inflation status can be displayed through three-dimensional animation, two-dimensional icons, numbers, text, etc.

[0068] Step 1054, obtaining the current inflation progress of the target air cushion, and adjusting the inflation status information in real time according to the inflation progress.

[0069] The inflation progress can be determined based on parameters such as air intake and air pressure. For example, the current air pressure is obtained in real time through a barometer, and the ratio of the air pressure to the set target air pressure is used as the inflation progress. According to the inflation progress, the displayed inflation status information can be adjusted. For example, the inflation status information may include a three-dimensional model of the air cushion. According to the inflation progress, the shape of the three-dimensional model is adjusted so that the three-dimensional model simulates the changes in the shape of the real air cushion.

[0070] This embodiment provides an air cushion inflation control interface, uses the interface to control the inflation operation of the air cushion, and displays inflation status information, so that the user can intuitively view the current state of the inflated air cushion, thereby improving the convenience of air cushion control.

[0071] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the inflation state information includes a virtual air cushion image. The virtual air cushion image may be a three-dimensional image or a two-dimensional image, and the virtual air cushion image may be used to indicate the current inflation state of the target air cushion.

[0072] The above step 1054 may be performed as follows:

[0073] According to the correspondence between the preset inflation progress and the appearance attributes of the virtual air cushion, the appearance attributes of the virtual air cushion image are adjusted in real time.

[0074] The virtual air cushion appearance attributes include color and / or shape.

[0075] Specifically, the correspondence between the inflation progress and the appearance attributes of the virtual air cushion can be preset. Usually, multiple inflation levels can be set, and different levels correspond to different colors and / or shapes. For example, three inflation levels of high, medium, and low can be set. The high level corresponds to green, indicating that the inflation is sufficient, the medium level corresponds to yellow, indicating that the inflation is low or is being inflated; the low level corresponds to red, indicating that the inflation is insufficient or inflation has not started.

[0076] By setting the correspondence between the inflation progress and the appearance attributes of the virtual air cushion, this embodiment can intuitively display the current inflation state through the virtual air cushion image on the air cushion inflation control interface, thereby helping to improve the convenience of controlling the air cushion.

[0077] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, step 103 includes:

[0078] Step 1031, determining the state of the target seat corresponding to the position of the target air cushion, and determining whether the target air cushion includes an air cushion located in the trunk area of ​​the vehicle.

[0079] Specifically, it is possible to determine whether the target seat is in a folded state by using a folding angle sensor on the seat or by taking an image, etc. For example, the folding angle sensor senses the current folding angle of the target seat, which may be the angle between the seat back and the seat surface. If the folding angle is less than a preset angle threshold, it is determined that the target seat is in a folded state.

[0080] Step 1032: If the state of the target seat is the folded state, and the target air cushion does not include the air cushion in the trunk area, it is determined that the area where the target air cushion is located meets the deployable condition.

[0081] Specifically, it is possible to determine whether the target air cushion includes the air cushion in the trunk area according to the mark of the target air cushion selected by the user. If the user does not select the air cushion in the trunk area, if the seat corresponding to the target air cushion is in a folded state, the target air cushion can be unfolded.

[0082] Step 1033, if the state of the target seat is a folded state, and the target air cushion includes the air cushion in the trunk area, determine whether there is an obstacle in the trunk area. If there is no obstacle, determine that the area where the target air cushion is located meets the deployable conditions.

[0083] That is, when the user selects an air cushion in the trunk area, if the seat corresponding to the target air cushion is in a folded state and there is no obstruction in the trunk area, the target air cushion can be deployed. Here, the seat corresponding to the target air cushion may include the seat closest to the trunk area, such as the rear seat in the car. That is, when the rear seat is in a folded state and there is no obstruction in the trunk area, the target air cushion can be deployed.

[0084] There are various methods for determining whether there is an obstacle in the trunk area, for example, image recognition, ultrasonic detection, etc. can be used to determine whether there is an obstacle in the trunk area. Optionally, if an obstacle is detected, a prompt message can be outputted through voice, display, etc.

[0085] This embodiment arranges an air cushion in the trunk area of ​​the vehicle, thereby utilizing more space in the vehicle to lay the air mattress, and automatically controls the air cushion in the trunk area, further improving the flexibility of the vehicle-mounted air cushion configuration.

[0086] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, after step 1031, the method further includes:

[0087] Step 1034: If the state of the target seat is the unfolded state, obtain a preset folding angle.

[0088] The folding angle may be set by the user, for example, by using the air cushion inflation control interface in the above embodiment to set the folding angle. If the user does not set the folding angle, a default folding angle may be obtained as the pre-set folding angle.

[0089] Step 1035 , based on the folding angle, controlling the target seat to perform a folding operation, so that the target seat is converted into a folded state.

[0090] Specifically, a folding instruction including a folding angle may be sent to a motor for driving the seat to fold, so that the target seat performs a folding operation. Usually, through detection by an angle sensor on the seat, the electronic device executing the method may obtain the current folding angle from the angle sensor in real time, and when the set folding angle is reached, the target seat is controlled to stop folding.

[0091] In an application scenario, the user can control the folding of the target seat and the inflation of the target air cushion by using the display screen described in the above embodiment. When the user controls the inflation of the target air cushion, if the user pre-controls the target seat to perform a folding operation, the above steps 1032-1033 can be executed. If the target seat is not folded, steps 1034-1035 can be automatically executed to make the target seat meet the expandable conditions of the air cushion, thereby realizing one-button control of seat folding and air cushion expansion and inflation.

[0092] This embodiment further improves the automation level of air cushion control by automatically controlling the folding of the target seat when the target seat is not folded before the air cushion is deployed, so that the state of the seat meets the deployment conditions of the air cushion, which is more conducive to improving the convenience of air cushion control.

[0093] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, step 105 includes:

[0094] Step 1055, determining the folding angle of the target seat and / or the number of target air cushions.

[0095] The folding angle can be detected by an angle sensor on the seat. The number of air cushions currently can be obtained by counting the air cushions selected by the user.

[0096] Step 1056, based on the correspondence between the preset folding angle and the inflation amount, and / or the correspondence between the preset number of air cushions and the inflation amount, control the target air cushion to perform an inflation operation so that the target air cushion reaches the target inflation amount.

[0097] Specifically, multiple folding angle intervals may be pre-set, and each folding angle interval corresponds to an inflation amount. For example, two folding angle intervals may be set, and when the folding angle is less than or equal to the dividing point between the two folding angle intervals, a higher inflation amount is determined; when the folding angle is greater than the dividing point, a lower inflation amount is determined, so that the air cushion can have a certain tilt angle.

[0098] The corresponding relationship between the number of air cushions and the inflation volume can also be preset. The target number of air cushions can indicate the size of the air mattress. Generally, the larger the air mattress is, the higher the inflation volume can be set, so that the inflated air mattress has better support. For example, when the target number of air cushions is less than or equal to 2, it means that the air mattress is used as a single bed, and a smaller inflation volume can be set at this time; when the target number of air cushions is greater than 2, it means that the air mattress is used as a double bed, and a higher inflation volume can be set at this time to make the air mattress more supportive.

[0099] It should be noted that if only the corresponding relationship between the folding angle and the inflation amount is used, or only the corresponding relationship between the number of air cushions and the inflation amount is used, the inflation amount corresponding to the folding angle or the inflation amount corresponding to the number of air cushions can be used as the target inflation amount. If the above-mentioned corresponding relationship between the folding angle and the inflation amount and the corresponding relationship between the number of air cushions and the inflation amount are used at the same time, the inflation amount corresponding to the folding angle and the inflation amount corresponding to the number of air cushions can be calculated (for example, taking the average, or taking the maximum value, minimum value, etc.) to obtain the target inflation amount.

[0100] This embodiment sets the corresponding relationship between the folding angle of the seat and the inflation amount, and / or the corresponding relationship between the number of air cushions and the inflation amount, so that when the target air cushion is inflated, the inflation amount is more closely matched to the state of the interior of the vehicle, thereby helping to improve the adaptability and comfort of the inflated air cushion.

[0101] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, step 102 includes:

[0102] Step 1021, determining the bed size mode selected by the user according to the air cushion deployment instruction.

[0103] Among them, the bed size mode may include multiple types, and different bed size modes correspond to different numbers of air cushions. For example: it may include at least two of the following: single mode, double mode, and multi-person mode. Specifically, the user can use the display screen described in the above embodiment to select the bed size mode. For example, the user can click the single bed mode or double bed mode button to select the bed size mode.
