Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of parking and automobile services, and in particular to a vehicle intelligent service system. Background Art

[0002] The National Bureau of Statistics released the 2024 Statistical Communiqué on National Economic and Social Development. It shows that by the end of 2024, China's civilian vehicle ownership will reach 352.68 million (including 6.94 million three-wheeled vehicles and low-speed trucks), an increase of 16.51 million from the end of the previous year. Of this total, private cars will reach 309.89 million, an increase of 15.62 million; new energy vehicles will reach 31.40 million, an increase of 10.99 million. Civilian cars will reach 193.43 million, an increase of 6.75 million, of which private cars will reach 182.04 million, an increase of 6.64 million. Consequently, parking difficulties and car washing difficulties in cities have become prominent.

[0003] Existing car washes are mostly located on the roadside or next to gas stations, accommodating only two or three vehicles at a time. Due to limited space, vehicles queue on the sidewalk or driveway during busy times. Some even occupy the sidewalk or even the motorway to wash their cars. This significantly impacts road traffic and poses significant safety risks. Furthermore, the current car wash model requires drivers to queue up and be washed in order, often manually or using various car wash machines. This results in wastewater flowing everywhere, polluting the environment. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention provides a vehicle intelligent service system that solves the problem of using robots to identify, transport, and dispatch vehicles in residential areas, large and medium-sized supermarkets, airport terminals, and other public areas to achieve a variety of vehicle service functions.

[0012] S12: The control module determines whether the user only needs to park the vehicle. If so, the vehicle is sent to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot; otherwise, the vehicle is sent to the unmanned workshop of the vehicle washing unit;

[0013] S13: After the vehicle is washed in the tunnel car wash machine in the unmanned workshop, the control module determines whether the user has a need for interior washing of the vehicle. If yes, the vehicle is sent to the manual workshop of the vehicle washing unit; otherwise, the vehicle is sent to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot;

[0014] S14: In the manual workshop, the vehicle interior is manually washed, and then the vehicle is beautified, maintained, and repaired according to the scheduled vehicle service items;

[0015] S15: Vehicles that have completed interior washing and do not require other services, as well as vehicles that have completed beauty, maintenance, and repairs, are transported to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot by the transfer robot;

[0016] S16: When the user leaves, the transfer robot delivers the user's vehicle from the long-term service parking area or the electric vehicle charging station in the parking lot to the exit of the parking lot, and the user picks up the vehicle and leaves.

[0017] Furthermore, the step S12 is divided into the following steps:

[0018] S121: The control module determines whether the user only needs to park the vehicle. If so, the vehicle is directly sent to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot without queuing;

[0019] S122: The control module determines whether the user has a car wash request and whether there is a vehicle being washed in the unmanned workshop. If not, the vehicle is sent directly to the unmanned workshop; if so, the vehicle is sent to the waiting area in the parking lot for washing and needs to queue for washing;

[0020] S123: After the vehicle being washed in the unmanned workshop is finished, the transfer robot sends the vehicle in the buffer area to be washed into the unmanned workshop.

[0021] Furthermore, in step S13, the following steps are performed:

[0022] S131: After the vehicle is washed in the tunnel car wash machine in the unmanned workshop, the control module determines whether the user needs to beautify the vehicle;

[0023] S132: When the user has a grooming request, the control module determines whether there is a vacant manual car shop. If so, the vehicle is sent to the manual car shop. When the user does not have a grooming request, the control module uses the transfer robot to send the vehicle to the quick wash parking area of ​​the parking lot, and then to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot.

[0024] S133: When the manual workshop is performing vehicle detailing operations, the control module uses the transfer robot to send the vehicle to the manual interior wash waiting area in the parking lot to queue up;

[0025] S134: After the manual workshop completes the current vehicle beautification, the control module uses the transfer robot to send the next vehicle in the queue from the manual internal washing waiting area to the manual workshop.

[0026] The vehicle washing unit of the vehicle management unit is provided with a sewage treatment module to treat and reuse the vehicle washing wastewater, including the following steps:

[0027] S21: Car wash wastewater is coarsely filtered through a mechanical screen;

[0028] S22: The wastewater after coarse filtration is finely filtered through the oil-separating grit chamber;

[0029] S23: The finely filtered wastewater enters the regulating tank, which is used to regulate the water volume;

[0030] S24: The wastewater from the regulating tank enters the aeration tank for aeration treatment and oxygen consumption reaction of microorganisms;

[0031] S25: The wastewater from the aeration tank is filtered again through a coagulation and grit chamber or a sand filter, and then enters a clean water tank for disinfection to form disinfected clean water.

[0032] S26: The clean water after disinfection can be reused.

[0033] The long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot adopts an intelligent parking garage, and the transfer unit of the vehicle management unit is used to process the storage and access of vehicles; the intelligent parking garage adopts a parking space lifting and horizontal movement stereo garage, which can quickly complete the storage and access of vehicles by combining lifting and horizontal movement.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle intelligent service system includes an intelligent reservation service client, a vehicle identification unit, a dispatching control unit and a vehicle management unit. The front end of the vehicle management unit is provided with a vehicle identification unit, and the vehicle management unit is provided with a transfer unit, a vehicle cleaning unit and a wifi positioning module connected to the dispatching control unit. The user selects the vehicle service item for reservation through the intelligent reservation service client, and the dispatching control unit reserves the parking space and the car wash space of the vehicle management unit in advance according to the vehicle service item for reservation. The vehicle identification unit transmits the vehicle information after reservation to the dispatching control unit, and the dispatching control unit provides service to the vehicle in combination with the transfer unit and the vehicle cleaning unit, and tracks the service of the vehicle through the wifi positioning module. The user checks the service progress and waiting time through the client. The following is a detailed description:

[0046] 1. Intelligent appointment service client;

[0047] The intelligent reservation service client is installed on electronic devices such as mobile phones, enabling users to check and reserve vehicle service items through the mobile client. The scheduling control unit reserves parking spaces, car wash spaces, etc. in advance according to the reserved vehicle service items to reduce user waiting time and avoid queuing.

[0048] Before the user makes an appointment in the client, the following steps are included:

[0049] S1: Real-name authentication and registration are required. The license plate number must be linked to the system account, and the client will perform verification. This client accesses vehicle management office data and extracts information such as the vehicle's size and weight based on the license plate to determine whether the vehicle is allowed to enter. This prevents vehicles from exceeding the maximum length, width, height, and load limits allowed by the "Vehicle Intelligent Service System" internal mechanisms and equipment, potentially causing damage to the equipment and mechanisms. If the client fails verification, the vehicle cannot be used in the Vehicle Intelligent Service System.

[0050] S2: After verification, the user can select the corresponding service item and reserved time in the client to make an appointment. The reserved time is subject to the default limit of the vehicle intelligent service system. After receiving the user's request, the vehicle intelligent service system will automatically reserve the corresponding parking space, car wash space, etc.

[0051] 2. Vehicle identification unit;

[0052] The vehicle identification unit is equipped with an electric door, a weighing device, and an image acquisition and recognition device. The image acquisition and recognition device is responsible for identifying license plate information, size, and model, the weighing device is used to measure vehicle weight, and the electric door is responsible for vehicle access. When a user's vehicle enters the site, the image acquisition and recognition device identifies the license plate number, retrieves the vehicle reservation information from the vehicle intelligent service system, and transmits it to the dispatch control unit for the next service step, providing data support for vehicle transfer. After confirming the service information is correct, the user only needs to wait in the waiting area to pick up the vehicle, and can check the service progress and waiting time through the client.

[0053] The image acquisition and recognition device can identify the vehicle position, which is used by the dispatch control unit to determine and formulate a transfer plan. The dispatch control unit traverses the spatial position coordinates of the available AGVs and dispatches the AGV closest to the position identified by the image acquisition and recognition device to the dispatch location.

[0054] 3. Dispatching Control Unit

[0055] The dispatch control unit includes a transfer robot, a transfer robot charging device, an electric vehicle charging station, and a control module. The control module is used to comprehensively dispatch vehicles in each service area (including vehicle management units and parking lots), quickly and efficiently guide vehicles, and transfer them to designated areas. The dispatch control unit includes functions such as geographic information query, basic information query, real-time data monitoring query, inspection system task management and control, historical operation information query, and real-time alarm information. These functions are the basic function set of this system and can provide the necessary data support for subsequent process optimization and improved user experience.

[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, the control module's scheduling operation for the vehicle includes the following steps:

[0057] S11: After the vehicle enters the site, the dispatch control unit assigns a transfer robot to the vehicle. The control module is responsible for issuing instructions based on the user's reserved vehicle service items;

[0058] S12: The control module determines whether the user only needs to park the vehicle. If so, the vehicle is sent to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot; otherwise, the vehicle is sent to the unmanned workshop of the vehicle washing unit;

[0059] Specifically, it is divided into the following steps:

[0060] S121: The control module determines whether the user only needs to park the vehicle. If so, the vehicle is directly sent to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot without queuing;

[0061] S122: The control module determines whether the user has a car wash request and whether there is a vehicle being washed in the unmanned workshop. If not, the vehicle is sent directly to the unmanned workshop; if so, the vehicle is sent to the waiting area in the parking lot for washing and needs to queue for washing;

[0062] S123: After the vehicle being washed in the unmanned workshop is finished, the transfer robot sends the vehicle in the buffer area to be washed into the unmanned workshop.

[0063] Among them, the unmanned workshop is equipped with a fully automatic contactless car washing machine, which washes the vehicle through a high-pressure spray arm without the need for traditional roller cloth scrubbing. At the same time, a distance measurement sensor is installed next to the spray arm to ensure that the spray arm can fit the surface shape of the vehicle as much as possible during movement, achieving a better spraying effect.

[0064] S13: After the vehicle is washed in the tunnel car wash machine in the unmanned workshop, the control module determines whether the user has a need for interior washing of the vehicle. If yes, the vehicle is sent to the manual workshop of the vehicle washing unit; otherwise, the vehicle is sent to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot;

[0065] Specifically, it is divided into the following steps:

[0066] S131: After the vehicle is washed in the tunnel car wash machine in the unmanned workshop, the control module determines whether the user needs to beautify the vehicle;

[0067] S132: When the user has a grooming request, the control module determines whether there is a vacant manual car shop. If so, the vehicle is sent to the manual car shop. When the user does not have a grooming request, the control module uses the transfer robot to send the vehicle to the quick wash parking area of ​​the parking lot, and then to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot.

[0068] S133: When the manual workshop is performing vehicle detailing operations, the control module uses the transfer robot to send the vehicle to the manual interior wash waiting area in the parking lot to queue up;

[0069] S134: After the manual workshop completes the current vehicle beautification, the control module uses the transfer robot to send the next vehicle in the queue from the manual internal washing waiting area to the manual workshop.

[0070] S14: In the manual workshop, the vehicle interior is manually washed, and then the vehicle is beautified, maintained, and repaired according to the scheduled vehicle service items;

[0071] S15: Vehicles that have completed interior washing and do not require other services, as well as vehicles that have completed beauty, maintenance, and repairs, are transported to the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot by the transfer robot;

[0072] S16: When the user leaves, the transfer robot delivers the user's vehicle from the long-term service parking area or the electric vehicle charging station in the parking lot to the exit of the parking lot, and the user picks up the vehicle and leaves.

[0073] In summary, the control module dispatches vehicles according to different needs such as parking and car washing, and guides vehicles into specific service areas. The transfer robots are responsible for executing instructions and transferring vehicles to designated areas. The control module uses efficient algorithms to support the intensive dispatch of dozens or even hundreds of transfer robots.

[0074] like Figure 3 As shown, the control module dispatches vehicles. For example, for storage reservations, the transfer robot transfers the vehicle to the parking area. For cleaning reservations, if the control module determines that the tunnel car wash in the unmanned workshop is idle, the vehicle is directly transferred to the tunnel car wash for cleaning. After cleaning, the vehicle is transferred to the long-term service parking area or the manual service workshop. If the control module determines that the car wash is working, the vehicle is transferred to the waiting buffer area for washing. The various operations subsequent to the control module's dispatch of vehicles involve numerous devices, such as the image acquisition and recognition device of the vehicle identification unit using a camera for image acquisition, the control module using local terminals and cloud data, the long-term service parking area of ​​the parking lot equipped with a transfer unit of the vehicle management unit, and the vehicle cleaning unit equipped with a sewage treatment module.

[0075] Furthermore, the control module controls the transfer robot to charge at the transfer robot charging platform to ensure smooth operation of the transfer robot.

[0076] Furthermore, the parking lot is also provided with electric vehicle charging piles. If a vehicle needs to be charged, the vehicle can be directly sent to the electric vehicle charging pile for charging instead of being stored in the long-term service parking area.

[0077] 4. Vehicle management unit;

[0078] like Figure 4 As shown, the vehicle washing unit of the vehicle management unit is equipped with a sewage treatment module to treat the car wash wastewater for reuse. The treatment process includes the following steps:

[0079] S21: Car wash wastewater is coarsely filtered through a mechanical screen;

[0080] S22: The wastewater after coarse filtration is finely filtered through the oil-separating grit chamber;

[0081] S23: The finely filtered wastewater enters the regulating tank, which is used to regulate the water volume;

[0082] S24: The wastewater from the regulating tank enters the aeration tank for aeration treatment and oxygen consumption reaction of microorganisms;

[0083] S25: The wastewater from the aeration tank is filtered again through a coagulation and grit chamber or a sand filter, and then enters a clean water tank for disinfection to form disinfected clean water.

[0084] S26: The clean water after disinfection can be reused.

[0085] In one embodiment, car wash wastewater is pre-treated, with a mechanical screen used to trap larger suspended solids, such as fibers and fruit peels. The wastewater then enters a grit trap, which uses gravity to separate the oil and other suspended impurities contained in the wastewater from the relative density difference between the oil and other suspended impurities and the water. The grit trap is primarily used to remove particles larger than 0.2 mm and with a density greater than 2.65 × 103 kg / m3 in the wastewater. 3 The wastewater is then separated from the water and removed to protect pipes, valves and other facilities from wear and blockage. It then enters the regulating tank, which is mainly used to regulate the water volume to avoid discontinuous water use for car washing and affect subsequent treatment. The pretreated sewage enters the secondary treatment, where the oxygen-consuming reaction of microorganisms takes place in the aeration tank (flotation tank), degrading and removing most of the organic matter. At the same time, N, P and residual grease can also be effectively removed. The effluent from the aeration tank (flotation tank) enters the sand filter tank, and after coarse and fine filtration to remove sand and gravel, it enters the clear water tank for storage, and can be reused after disinfection. The sludge generated by wastewater treatment is discharged to the sludge storage tank for temporary storage, and is equipped with sludge dewatering equipment for mechanical dehydration before being transported out for landfill.

[0086] like Figure 5 As shown, the long-term parking area of ​​the parking lot uses a smart parking garage, and the transfer unit of the vehicle management unit handles vehicle storage and access. The transfer unit is embedded in the smart reservation service client and on-site operation terminal, and is used to cache vehicles and allow owners to pick up their vehicles by themselves.

[0087] Smart parking garage uses Figure 8 The illustrated parking garage with lift and transverse movement allows for quick access to vehicles through a combination of lift and transverse movement, improving service efficiency. It can also be modularly designed to suit project space, with multiple unit combinations for efficient use of limited space.

[0088] Combine Figure 6 As shown, the intelligent parking garage is also provided with a car wash room and a central control room. The part of the stereo garage above the car wash room can be used as Figure 7 The car wash and beauty temporary storage area shown is a comprehensive area that realizes a buffer area for washing, a parking area for quick washing completion, and a waiting area for manual internal washing.

[0089] The central control room is used as a monitoring room and a local terminal of the vehicle intelligent service system.

[0090] 5. Transfer robot;

[0091] The transfer robot plays a significant role in the smooth operation of the vehicle intelligent service system. The transfer robot can be equipped with a variety of accessories, including but not limited to a lighting module or infrared night vision device, a video and audio acquisition module, a sound amplification module, a visual recognition module, a Wi-Fi positioning module, and a sensor recognition module. The transfer robot is connected to the dispatch control unit via the Wi-Fi positioning module and is typically located on the transfer robot's charging platform on standby. It can operate automatically according to the program set by the vehicle intelligent service system or can be manually controlled remotely.

[0092] The positioning technology of the transfer robot includes but is not limited to WiFi positioning navigation, laser navigation, visual navigation, and magnetic navigation.

[0093] The transfer robot automatically avoids obstacles during operation. It uses sensing devices such as lidar and ultrasonic sensors to detect the location and distance of surrounding obstacles in real time. Based on this information, it then uses a path planning algorithm to avoid obstacles and ensure safe operation.

[0094] When the transfer robot passes through the transfer robot lifting channel and crosses the floor, fire wall and other partition walls of the intelligent storage garage, the transfer robot lifting channel is provided with a robot electric door; the dimensions of the robot electric door and the transfer robot lifting channel meet the requirements of the maximum transfer robot and transported items; the robot electric door is automatically opened and closed by the transfer robot's sensing and recognition equipment, and can also be controlled remotely or on-site; the robot electric door set at the fire separation meets the fire protection and sealing requirements; the lifting equipment is set in the transfer robot lifting channel to meet the load requirements during maximum transfer.

[0095] 6. Wi-Fi positioning module;

[0096] The wifi positioning module is mainly used for device positioning and data transmission, and can also be replaced or used in combination with other systems with the same functions, including but not limited to Bluetooth technology, star flash technology, satellite communication, mobile communication and other wireless and wired communication technologies.

[0097] Each device in the vehicle intelligent service system is equipped with a Wi-Fi positioning module to achieve Wi-Fi signal coverage. The transfer robot, electric doors and transfer elevators, car washers, on-site operation terminals and display devices, and the positioning tags carried by personnel entering the module are all connected to the dispatch control unit through the Wi-Fi positioning module for management.

[0098] Example 1:

[0099] In Example 1, the car owner makes an appointment for the vehicle service through the mobile client, enters the parking lot at the agreed time, parks in the designated area, gets out of the car, and the vehicle identification unit identifies the vehicle to determine whether it is overweight, overheight, or oversized. The transfer robot then loads the vehicle and transports it to the smart parking garage in the parking lot.

[0100] The smart storage garage stores vehicles through transfer equipment. There is a lifting wheel block above the transfer equipment. When the vehicle stops at the designated position, the block starts to sweep from the edge of the transfer equipment and stops sweeping after searching for resistance from the wheel. At this time, the block is locked to achieve the purpose of fixing the wheel, facilitating the next step of transfer.

[0101] The dispatch control unit uses the scheduled vehicle service items and relevant information transmitted by the vehicle identification unit to dispatch and guide the transfer equipment or transfer robot. If there is an idle car wash, the transfer equipment or transfer robot transports the vehicle to the front of the car wash and places the vehicle on the car wash conveyor system for washing.

[0102] If all washers are currently cleaning vehicles, the transfer device or transfer robot will place the vehicle in the waiting area. Once the exterior of the vehicle is cleaned, if the owner requires no further service, the transfer device or transfer robot will place the vehicle in the parking area. The vehicle identification unit will then send a notification to the owner's client. Upon receiving the notification, the owner can choose to pick up the vehicle or park it. The transfer device or transfer robot will then place the vehicle in the pickup space or parking lot based on the response.

[0103] If the vehicle owner has selected other services, such as interior cleaning, detailing, maintenance, repairs, or annual inspections, the transfer equipment or transfer robot will either deliver the vehicle to a manual service station or place it in the manual service buffer area, depending on the availability of the service station. Once all services are completed, the subsequent process follows the same process as after the exterior wash. The parking area is equipped with charging stations for both the vehicle and the transfer robot. Vehicles are marked for their scheduled service items upon arrival. After each completed service, the system identifies and compares the vehicle to determine whether to proceed to the next service item or end the service item. The dispatch system then dispatches the transfer vehicle to the appropriate parking space.

[0104] The embodiments listed above are intended only for understanding the present invention and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described herein. Persons skilled in the relevant art may make various modifications or variations based on the technical solutions described in the claims, such as employing an embracing, traction-type, comb-type, or platform-type transfer robot as the vehicle transfer execution structure; or employing a brush-type car washer to provide car washing services. All equivalent modifications or variations are intended to be within the scope of protection of the claims.

[0105] The present invention can be applied to parking and car services in residential areas, large and medium-sized supermarkets, airport terminals and other public areas, realizing a system that integrates parking, car washing, vehicle beauty, vehicle inspection and other functions. The present invention can realize intelligent management and scheduling, improve efficiency, and avoid queuing and congestion.
