[0049] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0050] In addition, the term "a plurality of" in the embodiments of the present application refers to two or more than two. The terms "first" and "second" in the embodiments of the present application are used to distinguish descriptions and should not be understood to imply relative importance.

[0051] It's important to note that some models are equipped with spoilers to increase downforce, enhancing vehicle performance and improving driving stability. High-end models often feature more expensive electric spoilers. Compared to traditional fixed spoilers, electric spoilers can control the shape and angle of the spoiler via motors, providing a superior driving experience.

[0052] Research has found that when a car encounters adverse conditions (such as extreme weather and poor road conditions), it is often easier to remotely control the rear spoiler using mobile networks or other means. Manual adjustment by the driver can easily lead to a loss of concentration and cause accidents.

[0053] To address the above issues, embodiments of the present application provide a tail control method, system, device, controller, storage medium, computer program product, and vehicle. The tail control device can be integrated into a controller, which can be a server, such as a tail control system, or a terminal, such as one controlled by the tail control system.

[0054] Among them, the server can be an independent physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, network acceleration services (Content Delivery Network, CDN), as well as big data and artificial intelligence platforms.

[0055] The terminal may be a smartphone, tablet computer, laptop computer, desktop computer, smart speaker, smart watch, etc., but is not limited thereto. The terminal and the server may be connected directly or indirectly via wired or wireless communication, and this application does not impose any restrictions thereon.

[0056] See also Figure 1 , taking the tail wing control device integrated into the controller as an example, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an implementation scenario for the tail wing control method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The controller, which can be a terminal device, identifies the target operating condition of the vehicle and, based on the target operating condition, controls the operation of the vehicle's tail wing. By identifying the vehicle's operating condition and adaptively adjusting the vehicle's tail wing based on that condition, safety issues caused by manual tail wing adjustment by the driver are avoided, thereby improving vehicle driving safety.

[0057] It should be noted that Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the implementation environment scenario of the tail control method shown is merely an example. The implementation environment scenario of the tail control method described in the embodiment of this application is intended to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the embodiment of this application and does not constitute a limitation of the technical solution provided by the embodiment of this application. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that with the evolution of data processing and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solution provided in this application is equally applicable to similar technical problems.

[0058] The solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application are specifically described by the following embodiments. It should be noted that the description order of the following embodiments does not limit the preferred order of the embodiments.

[0059] This embodiment will be described from the perspective of a tail control device, which may be integrated into a controller. The controller may be a terminal and / or a server, and this application does not impose any limitation thereto.

[0060] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a tail wing control method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The tail wing control method may include the following steps S101 to S102:

[0061] S101: Identify the target operating condition of the vehicle.

[0062] The target operating condition refers to the operating condition of the vehicle.

[0063] The target operating condition may be one of a plurality of preset operating conditions. For example, there are four preset operating conditions, and a specific operating condition of the vehicle among the four preset operating conditions is identified and used as the target operating condition.

[0064] S102: Based on the target operating condition, control the operation of the rear wing of the vehicle.

[0065] Specifically, the specific content of the operation control of the rear wing of the vehicle can be determined in combination with the target operating condition.

[0066] The specific content of the operation control of the vehicle's tail wing can be adjusted according to actual conditions, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit it.

[0067] The operation control of the tail wing includes controlling the closing of the tail wing of the vehicle.

[0068] It should be noted that controlling the tail wing of the vehicle to close may be that the controller directly closes the tail wing of the vehicle based on the target operating condition, without the driver having to issue a tail wing closing instruction.

[0069] The operation control of the tail wing also includes controlling the tail wing of the vehicle to continue to operate according to the current angle and action.

[0070] Among them, controlling the operation of the tail wing also includes controlling the vehicle's tail wing to reduce the opening angle and the retraction action.

[0071] As can be seen, the rear wing control method provided in the embodiments of the present application identifies the target operating condition of the vehicle and, based on the target operating condition, controls the operation of the vehicle's rear wing. By identifying the vehicle's operating condition and adaptively adjusting the rear wing based on the vehicle's operating condition, safety issues caused by manual rear wing adjustment by the driver are avoided, thereby improving vehicle driving safety.

[0072] There are many ways to identify the target operating condition of the vehicle, which can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0073] In some embodiments, the process of identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle may include: identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle based on environmental parameters of the environment in which the vehicle is located.

[0074] The environmental parameters are used to indicate relevant information about the environment in which the vehicle is located.

[0075] The specific contents of the environmental parameters can be various and can be adjusted according to actual conditions, and the embodiments of this application do not limit them.

[0076] In some embodiments, the environmental parameter includes at least one of a temperature parameter, a humidity parameter, an air pressure parameter, and a vibration parameter of a vehicle component.

[0077] The temperature parameter refers to the temperature information of the vehicle's environment.

[0078] The humidity parameter refers to the humidity information of the vehicle's environment.

[0079] The air pressure parameter refers to the air pressure information of the vehicle's environment.

[0080] The vibration parameters refer to vibration information of vehicle components of the vehicle.

[0081] It should be noted that the vehicle component includes at least one of a vehicle suspension and a vehicle rear wing.

[0082] Based on this, the vibration parameter includes suspension vibration information of the vehicle and / or tail wing vibration information of the vehicle.

[0083] There are many ways to obtain environmental parameters, which can be adjusted according to actual conditions and specific environmental parameters, and are not limited in the embodiments of the present application. For example, the environmental parameters of the vehicle's environment are obtained through sensors configured on the vehicle (such as humidity sensors collecting humidity parameters of the vehicle's environment). For another example, the environmental parameters of the vehicle's environment are obtained through the Internet of Vehicles or other network technology means, or the environmental parameters of the vehicle's environment (such as obtaining environmental parameters transmitted by other vehicles or service equipment in the Internet of Vehicles).

[0084] Specifically, based on the environmental parameters of the environment in which the vehicle is located, the process of identifying the target operating condition in which the vehicle is located can be specifically analyzed according to the specific content of the environmental parameters.

[0085] Exemplarily, environmental parameters include temperature parameters and air pressure parameters. The vehicle's ambient temperature can be measured in degrees Celsius using a temperature sensor configured on the vehicle. The vehicle's engine intake temperature can be measured in degrees Celsius using an intake air temperature sensor configured on the vehicle. The braking system load can be measured in kPa using an air conditioning pressure sensor configured on the vehicle. If the measured ambient temperature is greater than 45 degrees Celsius, the intake air temperature is greater than 60 degrees Celsius, and the air conditioning pressure is greater than 2000 kPa, the target operating condition of the vehicle is determined to be a high-temperature condition (or a desert condition), i.e., an inclement weather condition.

[0086] In some embodiments, the above process of identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle based on the environmental parameters of the vehicle's environment may also include: identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle based on the vehicle's operating parameters and the environmental parameters of the vehicle's environment.

[0087] The operating parameters are used to indicate parameters related to the vehicle's driving process.

[0088] The operating parameters include but are not limited to the vehicle's acceleration, the vehicle's wheel speed, etc., which can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited in the embodiments of this application.

[0089] Specifically, based on the environmental parameters of the vehicle's environment and the vehicle's operating parameters, the process of identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle can be specifically analyzed according to the specific contents of the environmental parameters and the operating parameters.

[0090] For example, environmental parameters include rainfall parameters and wading depth parameters, and operating parameters include the vehicle's wheel speed. The vehicle's rain sensor can detect the vehicle's ambient rainfall intensity (in mm / h), and the vehicle's wading depth (in mm) can be measured using the vehicle's water sensor. The tire slip rate can be calculated using information measured by the vehicle's wheel speed sensor. If the measured rainfall parameter is greater than 50 mm / h, the tire slip rate is greater than 30%, and the wading depth is greater than 300 mm, the target operating condition for the vehicle is determined to be a rainstorm or flood condition, i.e., an inclement weather condition.

[0091] For another example, environmental parameters include vibration parameters and road condition parameters, and operating parameters include vehicle acceleration. The vehicle's vibration sensor can detect the vehicle's suspension body height (in mm), the vehicle's acceleration sensor can detect the vehicle's vibration frequency (in Hz), and the vehicle's detection equipment (such as radar and cameras) can detect road obstacles. If the vehicle's body height is measured to be greater than 50 mm, the vibration frequency is greater than 10 Hz, and the road obstacle density is greater than 5 per meter, the target operating condition of the vehicle is determined to be a gravel road condition or a pothole road condition, i.e., a severe road condition.

[0092] In this way, the target operating condition of the vehicle can be identified through the environmental parameters of the vehicle's environment and / or the operating parameters of the vehicle's environment, so that the vehicle's tail wing can be adaptively controlled based on the target operating condition, thereby avoiding safety problems caused by the driver manually adjusting the tail wing and improving the vehicle's driving safety.

[0093] In some embodiments, the process of identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle may further include: identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle when a tail wing self-protection mode of the vehicle is turned on.

[0094] Among them, the tail wing self-protection mode is an automated control strategy that aims to automatically adjust or close the tail wing by detecting the specific operating conditions of the vehicle to protect it from damage or optimize vehicle performance.

[0095] The rear wing self-protection mode can automatically adjust the rear wing according to the actual operating conditions of the vehicle without the need for driver intervention, thereby improving the safety and performance of the vehicle.

[0096] There are many ways to turn on the vehicle's tail wing self-protection mode, which can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited in the embodiments of this application.

[0097] In some embodiments, the method for activating the tail wing self-protection mode of the vehicle may include: activating the tail wing self-protection mode of the vehicle when the tail wing of the vehicle is activated.

[0098] Specifically, the tail self-protection mode may be enabled by default. When the tail self-protection mode is enabled by default, the driver directly enters the tail self-protection mode after enabling the tail.

[0099] It should be noted that it is necessary to identify whether the tail wing is open. There are many ways to identify whether the tail wing is open, and the specific methods can be adjusted according to actual conditions, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0100] For example, a Hall sensor (detecting lifting stroke), a rotary encoder (measuring tilt angle), or a micro switch (limit position feedback) can be used to identify whether the driver has opened the tail wing or whether other programs have automatically opened the tail wing.

[0101] In some embodiments, the method for activating the tail wing self-protection mode of the above-mentioned vehicle may include: when the tail wing of the vehicle is started, outputting a confirmation prompt message for activating the tail wing self-protection mode; and activating the tail wing self-protection mode of the vehicle in response to a confirmation operation on the activation confirmation prompt message.

[0102] Among them, the confirmation prompt information can be turned on to remind the driver to confirm through an application or voice or other methods. The specific reminder method can be adjusted according to actual conditions and is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0103] Among them, the confirmation operation refers to the operation of the driver confirming the activation confirmation prompt information through voice, touch operation, or other methods. The specific operation can be adjusted according to actual conditions and is not limited in the embodiment of this application.

[0104] Specifically, the method of turning on the confirmation prompt message belongs to the tail self-protection mode of inquiry activation. In the case of the tail self-protection mode of inquiry activation, each time the driver turns on the tail, the background or tail control system will ask the driver to confirm whether to turn on the tail self-protection mode. After receiving the driver's confirmation operation, the tail self-protection mode will be turned on.

[0105] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned process of identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle when the vehicle's tail wing self-protection mode is turned on may include: identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle when the vehicle's tail wing self-protection mode is turned on and the tail wing is in a normal state.

[0106] Based on this, before identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle, it is necessary to identify whether the tail wing is in a normal state.

[0107] There are multiple ways to identify whether the tail is in a normal state, and the specific methods can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0108] For example, the normal state of the tail wing can be determined by detecting whether the Hall sensor signal of the tail wing is lost or exceeds the range, detecting whether the Hall sensor signal of the tail wing is lost or exceeds the range, whether the peak current of the tail wing motor is greater than the calibration value, whether the tail wing control system responds, or detecting whether the tail wing performs an action under non-permitted conditions (such as suddenly opening the tail wing when the vehicle is traveling at a low speed). It should be noted that when the tail wing is in a normal state, the Hall sensor signal of the tail wing will not be lost or exceed the range. Other conditions are similar and will not be repeated here.

[0109] In some embodiments, the process of controlling the operation of the rear wing of the vehicle based on the target operating condition may include: controlling the operation of the rear wing of the vehicle based on a preset operating condition to which the target operating condition belongs.

[0110] The preset working condition refers to a preset working condition.

[0111] There can be many specific contents of the preset working conditions, which can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited in the embodiments of this application.

[0112] In some embodiments, the preset operating condition includes at least one of a preset weather condition, a preset road condition, and a preset tail condition.

[0113] The preset weather conditions are used to indicate the preset conditions under the weather dimension. The preset weather conditions include, but are not limited to, rainstorm conditions, snowstorm conditions, high temperature conditions, strong wind conditions, and clear weather conditions. The specific conditions can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited in the present embodiment.

[0114] The preset road conditions are used to indicate preset conditions under the road dimension. The preset road conditions include, but are not limited to, muddy road conditions, pothole-prone gravel road conditions, and smooth road conditions. The specific conditions can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited in the present embodiment.

[0115] The preset tail operating conditions are used to indicate the preset operating conditions under the tail dimensions. The preset tail operating conditions include, but are not limited to, tail motor high temperature operating conditions, tail motor failure operating conditions, and tail normal operating conditions. The specific conditions can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited in the present embodiment.

[0116] It should be noted that different preset working conditions correspond to different working control methods, which can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited in the embodiments of this application.

[0117] For example, when the preset weather condition is a clear weather condition, the tail wing operation control may be to maintain the tail wing's current operating state. When the preset weather condition is an inclement weather condition such as a rainstorm, a snowstorm, a high temperature condition, or a strong wind condition, the tail wing operation control may be to control the tail wing to be closed.

[0118] In some embodiments, the preset operating conditions include operating condition levels, and the operating condition levels include a first operating condition level and a second operating condition level, and the severity of the first operating condition level is greater than the severity of the second operating condition level.

[0119] The first operating condition level refers to a higher level of severity among the preset operating conditions, and the second operating condition level refers to a lower level of severity among the preset operating conditions.

[0120] For example, in the weather dimension, there are heavy rain conditions and sunny conditions, among which the sunny condition belongs to the second condition level, and the heavy rain condition belongs to the first condition level.

[0121] For another example, in the road dimension, there are pothole-gravel road conditions and smooth road conditions. Among them, the pothole-gravel road condition belongs to the first working condition level, and the smooth road condition belongs to the second working condition level.

[0122] Based on this, the above process of controlling the operation of the vehicle's tail wing may include: when the operating condition level belongs to the first operating condition level, controlling the vehicle's tail wing to close; when the operating condition level belongs to the second operating condition level, controlling the vehicle's tail wing to close or continue to work.

[0123] To facilitate better implementation of the tail control method provided in the embodiments of the present application, the embodiments of the present application also provide a tail control system, which can be used to implement the tail control method. The meanings of the terms herein are the same as those in the tail control method, and the specific implementation details can be referred to the description in the method embodiment.

[0124] Specifically, the tail wing control system provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to a vehicle equipped with a tail wing, and the tail wing control system includes a control unit, wherein the control unit is used to identify the target operating condition of the vehicle and control the operation of the vehicle's tail wing based on the target operating condition.

[0125] The control unit refers to a unit on the tail wing control system that is used to identify the target working condition of the vehicle and control the tail wing of the vehicle.

[0126] Specifically, the control unit includes a first control subunit and a second control subunit, wherein:

[0127] The first control subunit is configured to identify a target operating condition of the vehicle based on environmental parameters of the vehicle's environment, and send a control instruction to the second control subunit when the target operating condition is a preset operating condition;

[0128] The second control subunit is configured to control the operation of the tail wing of the vehicle upon receiving a control instruction from the first control subunit.

[0129] The control instructions include a closing instruction for closing the rear wing of the vehicle.

[0130] The above-mentioned tail wing includes a tail wing motor, a transmission module and a tail wing plate.

[0131] Among them, there can be multiple types of transmission modules, which can be adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0132] For example, the transmission module could be a four-bar hinge. Specifically, a four-bar hinge consists of four rigid links articulated into a parallelogram frame. When the motor drives the links to rotate, the tail wing synchronously raises and lowers, tilting, and tilting. Geometric constraints ensure motion stability and wind resistance. Another example is a rack-and-pinion mechanism. A motor-driven gear meshes with a linear rack, converting rotational motion into precise vertical lift. Optimized gear module and low backlash design ensure jitter-free extension and retraction. Another example is a hydraulic / pneumatic actuator. Using high-pressure oil or compressed air to drive a piston, it delivers high explosive force and fast response, making it suitable for heavy loads or rapid maneuvers. Another example is a ball-and-socket hinge system. Using a multi-degree-of-freedom ball-and-socket joint as its base, multiple servo motors independently control pitch and yaw angles, enabling real-time pneumatic fine-tuning. Another example is a combined hinge that integrates a rack-and-pinion and a four-bar linkage, enabling vertical lift followed by angle-of-attack adjustment. This coordinated control allows for complex operating conditions.

[0133] Based on this, the second control subunit is further configured to provide a closing signal output to the tail motor, so that the tail motor drives the transmission module to drive the tail panel, thereby controlling the tail of the vehicle to close.

[0134] The tail wing control system of the embodiment of the present application is explained below with reference to a specific embodiment.

[0135] Specifically, see Figure 3 , Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the structure of the tail control system of the embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the tail control system includes sensors for acquiring environmental parameters, an electronic control unit, a tail controller, a tail motor, a transmission hinge, a tail panel, and a human-machine interface. The electronic control unit is the first control subunit mentioned in the embodiments of this application, and the tail controller is the second control subunit mentioned in the embodiments of this application.

[0136] A sensor for acquiring environmental parameters is typically installed on the vehicle or tail wing. It can detect various environmental parameters, such as temperature, humidity, air pressure, and vibration. The detected environmental parameters are transmitted to B, the electronic control unit. Sensors include but are not limited to temperature sensors, humidity sensors, air pressure sensors, vibration sensors, inertial sensors, and gyroscopes.

[0137] Electronic control unit B is a control unit that receives environmental parameters input from sensors A that acquire environmental parameters and analyzes and processes these parameters to determine whether the vehicle is in adverse operating conditions (such as extreme weather and poor road conditions). Electronic control units include, but are not limited to, the vehicle's electronic control module (ECM) and the central electronic control unit (ECU). If electronic control unit B determines that the vehicle or rear wing is in adverse operating conditions, it immediately issues a shutdown command to the rear wing controller C and communicates the adverse operating conditions to the driver through the human-machine interface G, indicating that the rear wing has been closed.

[0138] The C tail controller is connected to the B electronic control unit, and can receive and convert the action instructions issued by the B electronic control unit, and provide corresponding action signal output to the D tail motor to realize the transformation of the tail action posture and deployment angle.

[0139] The D tail motor is used to drive the E transmission hinge of the electric tail, and provides corresponding motor action (forward and reverse or speed) according to the signal output provided by the C tail controller.

[0140] The E transmission hinge connects and drives the F tail wing panel to move. Different transmission hinges can achieve different movements of the F tail wing panel.

[0141] The F rear wing panel is a component that can realize the function of a rear wing. It can provide downforce for the vehicle when driving at high speeds and increase vehicle stability.

[0142] G human-machine interaction interface is connected to B electronic control unit and can convey the information output by B electronic control unit to the driver. In this application, it can display various adverse working conditions determined by B electronic control unit, including but not limited to touch screen, display, warning light, voice broadcast, etc.

[0143] Based on the above tail control system, the above tail control method can be implemented.

[0144] Specifically, the specific process of the tail wing control method can be referred to Figure 4 As shown. Figure 4 As shown, the specific process of the tail wing control method may include:

[0145] Identify whether the driver has opened the tail wing or whether other programs have automatically opened the tail wing. If the driver has opened the tail wing or other programs have automatically opened the tail wing, proceed to the next step; otherwise, terminate the determination.

[0146] When the tail is turned on, the driver will be requested to turn on the tail self-protection mode. The way to turn on the tail self-protection mode can be selected to ask each time or turn on the mode by default. For example, in the case of the ask each time mode, the driver will be asked whether to turn on the tail self-protection mode each time the tail is turned on. For another example, in the case of the default on mode, the driver will directly enter the tail self-protection mode after turning on the tail. When the default on mode is turned off, you can choose not to remind or ask each time. If you no longer remind whether to turn on the tail self-protection mode, the driver will not be asked to turn on the tail self-protection mode the next time the tail is turned on. In the ask each time mode, the driver will still be asked to turn on the tail self-protection mode the next time the tail is turned on; the judgment ends after the tail self-protection mode is turned off.

[0147] When the rear spoiler self-protection mode is enabled, the electronic control unit performs a self-test of the electric rear spoiler. If the test result indicates that the rear spoiler is in good condition, the system proceeds to the next step. If the test result indicates that the rear spoiler is faulty, the system concludes the test after the human-machine interface displays the fault and the cause of the fault.

[0148] The vehicle's surrounding environment parameters and those surrounding the rear wing are continuously acquired through corresponding environmental sensors and transmitted to the electronic control unit. These sensors include, but are not limited to, temperature sensors, humidity sensors, air pressure sensors, vibration sensors, inertial sensors, and gyroscopes; environmental parameters include temperature, humidity, air pressure, vibration, and other environmental parameters.

[0149] The electronic control unit continuously processes the parameters input by the environmental sensors and determines whether the vehicle or the rear wing is in a severe operating condition. If it determines that the vehicle or the rear wing is in a severe operating condition, it proceeds to the next step. If it determines that the vehicle or the rear wing is not in a severe operating condition, it returns to the previous step.

[0150] When the vehicle or tail wing is in a bad working condition, the electronic control unit sends a closing command to the tail wing controller. After receiving the closing command, the tail wing controller provides a closing signal output to the tail wing motor. The tail wing motor drives the transmission hinge to drive the tail wing panel to realize the automatic closing of the electric tail wing.

[0151] When the rear wing is automatically closed, the electronic control unit displays the current severe working condition of the vehicle or rear wing through the human-computer interaction interface and ends the judgment.

[0152] In this way, the electric tail wing can be self-protected, which can protect the electric tail wing and extend its service life, help the driver judge adverse working conditions (such as extreme weather and bad road conditions, etc.) and avoid dangerous driving; the tail wing can be automatically closed in adverse working conditions without the need for manual control by the driver, avoiding distracting the driver's attention.

[0153] To facilitate better implementation of the tail control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the embodiment of the present application also provides a device based on the tail control method. The meanings of the terms herein are the same as those in the tail control method, and the specific implementation details can be referred to the description in the method embodiment.

[0168] In some embodiments, when the tail wing self-protection mode of the vehicle is enabled, identifying the target operating condition of the vehicle includes:

[0169] When the vehicle's tail wing self-protection mode is turned on and the tail wing is in a normal state, the target operating condition of the vehicle is identified.

[0170] In some embodiments, the control module 202 includes:

[0172] In some embodiments, the preset operating conditions include at least one of preset weather conditions, preset road conditions, and preset tail conditions.

[0173] In some embodiments, the preset operating conditions include operating condition levels, and the operating condition levels include a first operating condition level and a second operating condition level, and the severity of the first operating condition level is greater than the severity of the second operating condition level.

[0174] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned operation control of the rear wing of the vehicle includes:

[0175] When the operating condition level belongs to the first operating condition level, controlling the tail wing of the vehicle to close;

[0176] When the operating condition level belongs to the second operating condition level, the tail wing of the vehicle is controlled to close or continue to work.

[0177] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned control of the operation of the vehicle's tail wing includes: controlling the vehicle's tail wing to close.

[0178] As can be seen, the tail wing control device provided in the embodiment of the present application uses the operating condition recognition module 201 to identify the target operating condition of the vehicle, and the control module 202 controls the operation of the vehicle's tail wing based on the target operating condition.
