[0002] With the rapid development of intelligent and connected technologies for electric vehicles, users' demand for convenient vehicle operation is increasing day by day. People's requirements for convenient operation of the front hood are gradually rising, and the traditional mechanical opening method of the front hood is difficult to meet this demand. The traditional front hood opening method requires in-vehicle operation and is based on a mechanical structure to achieve opening by pulling a handle installed under or on the side of the cockpit trim panel. Currently, the electrified front hood opening method is to add or reuse software and hardware on the basis of the traditional mechanical structure to achieve automated opening, which increases the user's vehicle use cost.

[0003] Therefore, how to provide a control method for an electric front hood to improve the convenience of using the vehicle front hood without increasing costs has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present application provides a control method, device, system and storage medium for an electric front hood to improve the convenience of using the vehicle front hood without increasing costs.

[0005] The present application provides a control method for an electric front hood, including:

[0006] When receiving a front hood opening request signal sent by a mobile device through an existing signal receiving device, detecting the opening and closing state of the front hood;

[0007] When the front hood is in the closed state, determining whether the current front hood opening condition is satisfied;

[0008] When the current front hood opening condition is satisfied, controlling the front hood to open.

[0009] The beneficial effect of the present application is as follows: When receiving a front hood opening request signal sent by a mobile device through an existing signal receiving device, detecting the opening and closing state of the front hood; when the front hood is in the closed state, determining whether the current front hood opening condition is satisfied; when the current front hood opening condition is satisfied, controlling the front hood to open. Since the signal of the mobile device is received through the existing signal receiving device of the vehicle, the cost of the vehicle will not be increased. At the same time, different from the traditional in-vehicle mechanical operation, controlling the opening of the front hood through the mobile device improves the convenience of using the vehicle front hood.

Alternatively, the operation of opening the front hood is continued, and it is indicated that the opening action will stop when the distance from the obstacle reaches a preset distance, enabling the front hood to open partially.

[0031] When the temperature of the front hood lock is lower than the preset temperature, temperature control adjustment is triggered to raise the temperature of the front hood lock to be greater than the preset temperature, where the preset temperature is the critical temperature causing mechanical jamming.

[0069] The following describes the preferred embodiments of the present application with reference to the drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0070] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a control method for an electric front cover in an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 1 shown, the method can be implemented as the following steps S101 - S103:

[0071] In step S101, when a front cover opening request signal sent by a mobile device is received through an existing signal receiving device, the opening and closing state of the front cover is detected;

[0072] In step S102, when the current cover is in the closed state, it is judged whether the current front cover opening condition is satisfied;

[0073] In step S103, when the current front cover opening condition is satisfied, control the front cover to open.

[0074] When receiving the front cover opening request signal sent by the mobile device through the existing signal receiving device, detect the opening and closing state of the front cover. Figure 2 This is a flowchart of the control method for opening the electric front cover in an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 2 shown, in the present application, the opening and closing instructions of the electric front cover can be issued by the vehicle owner through the mobile device. The vehicle owner issues an opening instruction through the original mobile device (such as shortcut keys like tapping the screen, double-clicking the volume keys, etc.). After the mobile device receives the instruction, it issues an instruction through the vehicle control software and transmits the signal to the vehicle. Thus, the vehicle receives the front cover opening request signal sent by the mobile device through the existing signal receiving device. After the vehicle receives the opening request signal by multiplexing the original hardware, it detects the opening and closing state of the front cover, that is, judges whether the state of the front cover lock is the open state to further determine whether the opening and closing conditions are met.

[0075] When the front cover is in the open state, display a prompt message indicating that the front cover is open in the vehicle, and synchronously send the prompt message to the mobile device.

[0076] When the front cover is in the closed state, judge whether the current front cover opening condition is satisfied. Since the opening operation of the vehicle front cover is closely related to the overall operating state of the vehicle, in order to ensure the safety and compliance of the operation, the system needs to accurately obtain the key operating parameters of the vehicle. Therefore, obtain the vehicle driving speed and the engine state. Judge whether the current front cover opening condition is satisfied according to the vehicle driving speed and the engine state. Among them, when the vehicle driving speed is greater than the preset speed and the engine is in the running state, the vehicle does not meet the front cover opening condition; otherwise, it is determined that the front cover has the opening condition. Since when the vehicle driving speed exceeds the preset safety speed threshold and the engine is in the running state, the system will determine that the vehicle does not meet the front cover opening condition. This is because opening the front cover in this state may not only interfere with the normal driving of the vehicle but also pose a safety risk to the operator. On the contrary, if the vehicle driving speed does not exceed the preset speed threshold, or the engine is in the non-running state, the system determines that the front cover has the opening condition.

[0077] In addition, to prevent accidents caused by items piled on the vehicle, the system also adds a pressure detection mechanism. When the pressure sensor on the vehicle front cover detects that the pressure value exceeds the preset pressure threshold, the system will immediately determine that the vehicle does not meet the front cover opening condition and prevent the front cover opening operation to avoid potential safety hazards caused by item piling.

[0078] When the front cover opening condition is currently met, control the front cover to open, and at the same time, display a prompt message indicating that the front cover has been opened through the vehicle and the mobile device.

[0079] In one embodiment, when controlling the front cover to open, scan for obstacles (such as branches, cables) on the opening path through the radar array of the vehicle front cover. When there are obstacles on the opening path, send a prompt message indicating that there are obstacles and the front cover cannot be opened, and prompt the location of the obstacles. Or continue to execute the operation of opening the front cover. The system can continue to execute the operation of opening the front cover, but when the distance between the front cover and the obstacle reaches the preset safe distance, the opening action will automatically stop, enabling the front hood to open partially, so as to meet the user's usage requirements as much as possible while ensuring safety.

[0080] In response to the possible mechanical jamming problem under extreme weather conditions, the system also adds a temperature control adjustment mechanism. When the temperature of the front cover lock is lower than the preset temperature, trigger the temperature control adjustment to raise the temperature of the front cover lock to be greater than the preset temperature, where the preset temperature is the critical temperature causing mechanical jamming. Solve the mechanical jamming problem under extreme weather in this way.

[0081] When the front cover opening condition is not currently met, a prompt message indicating that the front cover cannot be opened is generated, such as "The front cover cannot be opened. Please ensure driving safety"; display the prompt message indicating that the front cover cannot be opened in the vehicle and synchronously send the prompt message to the mobile device.

[0082] To ensure driving safety, the vehicle needs to keep the front cover closed during driving to prevent potential safety hazards such as aerodynamic interference, line of sight obstruction, or component detachment caused by the accidental opening of the front cover.

[0083] Figure 3 This is a flowchart of the control method for closing the electric front cover in an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 3 shown, the vehicle continuously determines whether the state of the front cover is the closed state. When the front cover is not in the closed state, determine whether the front cover opening condition is currently met. The specific determination process is the same as described above, mainly based on comprehensive factors such as the vehicle driving speed, engine state, and data of the pressure sensor on the front cover for determination, which will not be elaborated here.

[0084] When the front cover opening condition is not met, the vehicle issues an instruction to close the front cover. To perform the closing operation properly, the present application monitors for obstructions in real time during the process of closing the front cover. In an embodiment of the present application, during the process of closing the front cover, it is determined whether there are problems that obstruct the closing of the front cover, such as foreign objects being stuck or mechanical component failures. If there are no problems that obstruct the closing of the front cover, the front cover is closed, and a prompt message indicating that the front cover has been closed is sent after the front cover is closed; if there are problems that obstruct the closing of the front cover, the front cover anti-pinch function is triggered, and a prompt message for closing the front cover is sent. At this time, the closing immediately stops to prevent pinching of potential obstacles or the human body due to the closing action. In addition, when the front cover anti-pinch function is triggered, the hazard lights are turned on to remind surrounding vehicles and pedestrians to pay attention and avoid, and a control instruction to limit the vehicle from accelerating further is issued to ensure that the vehicle is processed in a safe state.

[0085] When the front cover opening condition is met, the vehicle owner can be allowed to actively send a closing instruction through a mobile device. In an embodiment, during the process of closing the electric front cover, when a closing request signal for the electric front cover sent by the mobile device is received through an existing signal receiving device, the opening and closing state of the front cover is judged; when the front cover is not in the closed state, it is judged whether there are problems that obstruct the closing of the front cover; if there are problems that obstruct the closing of the front cover, the front cover anti-pinch function is triggered, and a prompt message for checking whether there are foreign objects is sent.

[0086] When the vehicle is in the closed state, although the front cover is already closed at this time, it may be due to a user's incorrect operation or confirmation of the front cover state. After the vehicle receives the closing request signal sent by the mobile device through an existing signal receiving device, it prompts that the front cover has been closed.

[0087] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: when a front cover opening request signal sent by a mobile device is received through an existing signal receiving device, the opening and closing state of the front cover is detected; when the front cover is in the closed state, it is judged whether the current front cover opening condition is met; when the current front cover opening condition is met, the front cover is controlled to open. Since the signal of the mobile device is received through the existing signal receiving device of the vehicle, the cost of the vehicle will not be increased. At the same time, different from the traditional in-vehicle mechanical operation, controlling the opening of the front cover through a mobile device improves the convenience of using the vehicle front cover.

[0088] In one embodiment, the method can also be implemented as the following steps A1 - A2:

[0089] In step A1, when the current front cover opening condition is not met, a prompt message indicating that the front cover cannot be opened is generated;

[0090] In step A2, the prompt message indicating that the front cover cannot be opened is displayed in the vehicle and the prompt message is synchronously sent to the mobile device.

[0091] In one embodiment, the method may also be implemented as the following steps B1 - B3:

[0092] In step B1, determine in real time whether the state of the front cover is the closed state;

[0093] In step B2, when the front cover is not in the closed state, determine whether the front cover opening condition is currently met;

[0094] In step B3, when the requirement for keeping the front cover open is not met, close the front cover.

[0095] In one embodiment, the method may also be implemented as the following steps C1 - C3:

[0096] In step C1, determine whether there is a problem preventing the front cover from closing during the process of closing the front cover;

[0097] In step C2, if there is no problem preventing the front cover from closing, close the front cover and send a prompt message indicating that the front cover has been closed after the front cover is closed;

[0098] In step C3, if there is a problem preventing the front cover from closing, trigger the front cover anti - pinch function and send a prompt message for closing the front cover.

[0099] In one embodiment, the method may also be implemented as the following steps:

[0100] While triggering the front cover anti - pinch function, turn on the hazard lights and send a control command to restrict the vehicle from accelerating further.

[0101] In one embodiment, the method may also be implemented as the following steps D1 - D3:

[0102] In step D1, when receiving an electric front cover closing request signal sent by a mobile device through an existing signal receiving device, determine the opening and closing state of the front cover;

[0103] In step D2, when the front cover is not in the closed state, determine whether there is a problem preventing the front cover from closing;

[0104] In step D3, if there is a problem preventing the front cover from closing, trigger the front cover anti - pinch function and send a prompt message to check whether there is a foreign object.

[0105] In one embodiment, the determination of whether the front cover opening condition is currently met in step S102 or step B2 above may be implemented as the following steps E1 - E2:

[0106] In step E1, obtain the vehicle driving speed and the engine state;

[0107] In step E2, it is determined whether the current hood opening condition is satisfied according to the vehicle driving speed and the engine state. Among them, when the vehicle driving speed is greater than the preset speed and the engine is in the running state, the vehicle does not satisfy the hood opening condition.
