Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive intelligent cockpit environmental control technology, specifically to an intelligent cockpit environmental pollution prevention and control system. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most vehicle intelligent cockpit environmental control systems (such as Tesla's "Bio Mode") employ a single-parameter triggering mechanism. They primarily rely on PM2.5 sensors to determine when to activate the air conditioning filtration system, and use a crude "maximum power activation" control strategy. This technology has significant limitations and three major drawbacks: 1. The perception dimension is limited, making it unable to effectively detect colorless and odorless but highly hazardous harmful gases such as carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), resulting in safety blind spots; 2. Crude control strategy: It only operates in "on / off" mode, responding with a fixed maximum power regardless of pollutant concentration. This results in extremely low energy efficiency on moderately polluted roads, severely wasting the driving range of electric vehicles. Furthermore, the maximum airflow generates tremendous noise, affecting driving comfort. 3. Lack of systematic optimization: Long-term closed operation will lead to the accumulation of carbon dioxide concentration in the vehicle, causing fatigue and drowsiness of passengers. Without considering the synergistic integration with functions such as oxygen generation and pressurization, it is unable to cope with complex and ever-changing driving environments.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an intelligent system that can achieve comprehensive protection against multiple pollutants, optimize energy consumption, and maintain a stable cabin environment. Summary of the Invention

Simultaneously, based on calibration and pre-calculation of the optimal execution commands corresponding to possible environmental states, its optimization objective comprehensively balances indoor air quality, total system energy consumption, and equipment operating costs. During online operation, the system matches the real-time collected environmental vector with the calibration results, and calculates a set of optimal five-dimensional execution commands using a multi-dimensional linear interpolation algorithm. This precisely and smoothly controls the damper opening, oxygen generator power, air conditioning power, booster pump power, and air purifier power, thereby achieving precise and efficient mapping from environmental perception to execution control.

The concentrations detected by each sensor form a comprehensive graph. This graph is then correlated with graphs showing the opening of the damper, the power of the oxygen generation system, the power of the air conditioning system, the power of the pressurization system, and the power of the air purification system, achieving dynamic adjustment. No matter how the external environment changes, there is always a most efficient and energy-saving treatment method.
[0028] This invention relates to an intelligent cockpit environmental pollution prevention and control system. Energy consumption is dynamically matched to the pollution level. It operates at low power during periods of mild pollution, significantly saving energy and extending driving range. It only operates at full power in extreme conditions, maximizing energy efficiency. Dynamic balance is achieved through the collaborative work of multiple actuators to maintain O2 / CO2 balance and prevent occupant drowsiness. Smooth and precise operation is ensured by the gradual and seamless movement of all actuators, resulting in stable changes in in-vehicle environmental parameters. This guarantees the continuity and smoothness of control output, achieving stepless adjustment and optimizing both energy consumption and user experience.
