Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for operating a vehicle-mounted oxygen generation and intelligent seat temperature control collaborative system. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the automotive industry, consumers' demands for driving and riding experiences are constantly increasing, especially in terms of comfort and health. Currently, heated and ventilated car seats are standard features, while in-vehicle oxygen concentrators further enhance comfort. However, existing technologies often treat these systems as independent modules, leading to improper energy utilization, complex spatial layouts, and low cost-effectiveness. Seat heating systems rely on heating wires, consuming a large amount of electricity, while the high-temperature waste heat generated by the air compressor in in-vehicle oxygen concentrators is usually treated as waste, resulting in energy waste. Furthermore, independent designs lead to redundant placement of system components, increasing vehicle weight and material costs, and wasting valuable installation space and assembly time.

[0003] Therefore, how to provide an innovative integrated solution to break down the barriers between existing functional modules and achieve resource sharing and functional synergy is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a method and apparatus for operating a vehicle-mounted oxygen generation and intelligent seat temperature control collaborative system, which offers an innovative integrated solution to break down the barriers between existing functional modules and achieve the technical effects of resource sharing and functional synergy.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the main technical solutions adopted in this application include:

[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a method for operating a vehicle-mounted oxygen generation and intelligent seat temperature control collaborative system, the method comprising:

[0007] Heat-generating air is obtained through an oil-free air compressor and then split into an oxygen-generating branch and a temperature-control branch. The oxygen-generating branch is configured to convert the air into oxygen through a molecular sieve oxygen generator to supply oxygen to the vehicle interior. The temperature-control branch is configured to regulate the airflow rate by rotating a fan to provide intelligent temperature control for the vehicle seats.

[0008] The ambient temperature inside the vehicle, the surface temperature of the vehicle seats, the air temperature at the outlet of the oil-free air compressor, and the desired temperature set by the user are obtained.

[0009] The temperature control mode is determined based on the comparison between the ambient temperature and the desired temperature.

[0010] Based on the surface temperature of the vehicle seat and the desired temperature, a target fan speed suitable for the temperature control mode is determined, and the airflow rate is adjusted according to the target fan speed to achieve coordinated operation of oxygen supply and intelligent seat temperature control.

[0011] This embodiment provides a method for operating an in-vehicle oxygen generation and intelligent seat temperature control collaborative system. The system calculates a target fan speed based on the vehicle seat surface temperature and the passenger's desired temperature setting to ensure appropriate airflow and heat exchange, thereby improving passenger comfort. Subsequently, this target fan speed is converted into a corresponding analog voltage signal, directly controlling the temperature control fan in the temperature control branch, achieving stepless adjustment. This stepless adjustment allows for smooth transitions between different fan operating states, avoiding the abrupt changes of traditional on / off modes, resulting in more uniform and stable airflow. When environmental conditions or passenger needs change, the system can quickly adjust the voltage signal, changing the fan speed in real time to adapt to new temperature requirements. Through this precise adjustment, not only can the seat surface temperature be stabilized, but the overall in-vehicle climate environment can also be optimized, improving passenger comfort and satisfaction, while also effectively saving energy.

[0012] In one implementation, determining the temperature control mode based on the comparison between the ambient temperature and the desired temperature includes:

[0013] Based on the desired temperature and the preset temperature threshold, the heating temperature boundary and the cooling temperature boundary are determined;

[0014] The ambient temperature is compared with the heating temperature boundary, the cooling temperature boundary, and the preset upper and lower temperature limits, and the temperature control mode is determined based on the comparison results.

[0015] This embodiment adaptively adjusts the temperature boundary based on the desired temperature and a preset temperature threshold to quickly respond to changes in external temperature. By monitoring the ambient temperature and temperature boundary in real time, and comparing preset upper and lower temperature limits, the system intelligently selects the appropriate temperature control mode (heating, cooling, or ventilation). This innovative integrated solution breaks down the barriers between functional modules in traditional air conditioning systems, enabling information sharing and collaborative work, thereby optimizing resource utilization and improving overall system performance. Simultaneously, by dynamically adjusting the operating mode, the system not only improves energy efficiency but also enhances user comfort, propelling temperature control systems towards intelligence and integration.

[0016] In one embodiment, the preset temperature threshold includes a preset high temperature threshold and a preset low temperature threshold; determining the heating temperature boundary and the cooling temperature boundary based on the desired temperature and the preset temperature threshold includes:

[0017] The sum between the desired temperature and the preset high temperature threshold is determined as the cooling temperature boundary;

[0018] The difference between the desired temperature and the preset low temperature threshold is determined as the heating temperature boundary.

[0019] This embodiment defines the cooling temperature boundary as the sum of the desired temperature and a preset high-temperature threshold, ensuring that the system can quickly activate the cooling and ventilation mode when the ambient temperature is too high, thus improving user comfort. Simultaneously, the difference between the desired temperature and a preset low-temperature threshold is defined as the heating temperature boundary, ensuring that the system can promptly activate the heating and ventilation mode to maintain a warm interior environment when the temperature drops sharply. Therefore, it enables the sharing of air resources obtained from the oil-free air compressor with the seats for intelligent temperature control, achieving coordinated operation of oxygen production and seat temperature control.

[0020] In one embodiment, comparing the ambient temperature with the heating temperature boundary, the cooling temperature boundary, and preset upper and lower temperature limits, and determining the temperature control mode based on the comparison result, includes:

[0021] If the ambient temperature is greater than the cooling temperature boundary, and / or the ambient temperature is greater than the preset upper limit temperature value, then the temperature control mode is determined to be the cooling ventilation mode.

[0022] If the ambient temperature is less than the heating temperature boundary, and / or the ambient temperature is less than the preset lower limit temperature value, then the temperature control mode is determined to be the heating and ventilation mode.

[0023] If the ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the preset lower temperature limit and the ambient temperature is less than or equal to the preset upper temperature limit, then the temperature control mode is determined to be the basic ventilation mode.

[0024] This embodiment, through intelligent design, achieves dynamic switching between cooling, heating, and basic ventilation modes, automatically adjusting according to real-time changes in ambient temperature to enhance passenger comfort. This integrated solution breaks down the barriers between traditional functional modules, enabling efficient collaboration and resource sharing. For example, within a suitable temperature range, the system can maintain airflow using the basic ventilation mode without activating additional energy-consuming equipment, thus optimizing energy use. Furthermore, this intelligent adjustment not only reduces unnecessary energy consumption but also lowers carbon emissions during vehicle operation, aligning with sustainable development goals.

[0025] In one implementation, determining the target fan speed adapted to the temperature control mode based on the vehicle seat surface temperature and the desired temperature includes:

[0026] When the temperature control mode is cooling and ventilation mode, a first difference between the vehicle seat surface temperature and the desired temperature is determined;

[0027] Obtain the solar radiation intensity inside the vehicle;

[0028] Based on the first difference and the solar radiation intensity, a target fan speed suitable for the cooling and ventilation mode is determined.

[0029] This embodiment intelligently calculates the target fan speed for the appropriate cooling and ventilation mode by monitoring the difference between the surface temperature of the vehicle seats and the passenger's desired temperature in real time, combined with data on the sunlight intensity inside the vehicle. This integrated design breaks down the barriers between traditional functional modules, enabling the coordinated operation of oxygen generation and seat temperature control, which not only improves passenger comfort but also optimizes energy efficiency.

[0030] In one implementation, determining the target fan speed adapted to the temperature control mode based on the vehicle seat surface temperature and the desired temperature includes:

[0031] When the temperature control mode is heating and ventilation mode, a second difference between the desired temperature and the surface temperature of the vehicle seat is determined;

[0032] Based on the second difference, the target fan speed adapted to the heating and ventilation mode is determined.

[0033] This embodiment calculates a second difference between the real-time monitoring of the vehicle seat surface temperature and the passenger's desired temperature, thereby rapidly responding to the passenger's comfort needs in heating and ventilation mode. Based on this difference, the system further determines the target fan speed suitable for the heating mode, ensuring precise control and high efficiency. This integrated design breaks down the barriers between traditional functional modules, enabling coordinated operation of oxygen generation and seat temperature control, which not only improves passenger comfort but also optimizes energy efficiency.

[0034] In one embodiment, adjusting the airflow rate according to the target fan speed includes:

[0035] The target fan speed is converted into an analog voltage signal;

[0036] The fan adjusts its speed according to the voltage signal to regulate the airflow rate.

[0037] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide an operating device for a vehicle-mounted oxygen generation and intelligent seat temperature control collaborative system, the operating device comprising:

[0038] An air distribution unit is used to obtain heated air through an oil-free air compressor, and the air is distributed to an oxygen generation branch and a temperature control branch; wherein, the oxygen generation branch is configured to convert the air into oxygen through a molecular sieve oxygen generator to supply oxygen to the vehicle interior; the temperature control branch is configured to regulate the airflow rate through the rotation of a fan to perform intelligent temperature control on the vehicle seats.

[0039] The temperature acquisition unit is used to acquire the ambient temperature inside the vehicle, the surface temperature of the vehicle seats, the air temperature at the outlet of the oil-free air compressor, and the desired temperature set by the user.

[0040] The mode determination unit is used to determine the temperature control mode based on the comparison between the ambient temperature and the desired temperature.

[0041] The collaborative operation unit is used to determine the target fan speed adapted to the temperature control mode based on the surface temperature of the vehicle seat and the desired temperature, and to adjust the airflow rate according to the target fan speed, so as to achieve collaborative operation of oxygen supply and intelligent seat temperature control.

[0056] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0057] As the automotive industry continues to develop, consumers' demands for driving and riding experiences are also increasing, especially in terms of comfort and health. Currently, heated and ventilated car seats have become basic features, while emerging in-vehicle oxygen generator technology further enhances the comfort and health of drivers and passengers. However, existing technological solutions often design these systems as independent functional modules, leading to a series of problems related to energy utilization, space layout, and cost-effectiveness.

[0058] First, from an energy utilization perspective, seat heating systems typically rely on heating wires, a process that consumes a significant amount of electricity. Furthermore, the core component of an onboard oxygen concentrator—the air compressor—generates high-temperature waste heat during operation. Under current designs, this heat is usually considered waste and must be expelled from the vehicle through a cooling system, resulting in energy waste. Simultaneously, to provide seat heating comfort, the vehicle must additionally rely on heating wires to generate heat, thus repeatedly consuming the vehicle's limited electrical resources and significantly reducing the overall system's energy efficiency.

[0059] Secondly, the independent nature of the system structure leads to several problems. Because the onboard oxygen generation system, seat ventilation system, and seat heating system each have their own independent components, wiring harnesses, and pipes, this not only increases the complexity and weight of the vehicle's interior but also occupies valuable installation space. This redundant layout increases overall material costs and assembly time, resulting in unnecessary resource waste.

[0060] Therefore, how to provide an innovative integrated solution to break down the barriers between existing functional modules and achieve resource sharing and functional synergy is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved.

[0061] According to an embodiment of this application, an embodiment of the operation method of a vehicle-mounted oxygen generation and seat intelligent temperature control collaborative system is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Furthermore, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.

[0062] This embodiment provides a method for operating a vehicle-mounted oxygen generation and intelligent seat temperature control collaborative system. Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating the operation method of an in-vehicle oxygen generation and intelligent seat temperature control collaborative system provided in this application embodiment is shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the process includes the following steps:

[0063] Step S1: Heat-containing air is obtained through an oil-free air compressor and the air is split into an oxygen generation branch and a temperature control branch. The oxygen generation branch is configured to convert air into oxygen through a molecular sieve oxygen generator to supply oxygen to the vehicle interior. The temperature control branch is configured to regulate the airflow rate through the rotation of a fan to perform intelligent temperature control on the vehicle seats.

[0064] Specifically, oil-free air compressors are used to extract and pressurize air from the environment. This method avoids the oil contamination that can occur with traditional air compressors, ensuring air cleanliness and making it suitable for oxygen supply and temperature control inside vehicles. The air obtained through the oil-free air compressor is effectively split into two branches: an oxygen generation branch and a temperature control branch. This design helps to simultaneously meet the breathing needs and comfort requirements of vehicle occupants, achieving multi-functional integration. A molecular sieve oxygen generator converts air into oxygen, ensuring a continuous oxygen supply inside the vehicle. This is particularly important for occupants on long journeys or in enclosed environments, effectively preventing hypoxia and improving safety and comfort. The temperature control branch uses a fan to regulate airflow, thereby achieving intelligent temperature control for the vehicle seats. This process not only provides a personalized comfort experience but also adapts to different temperature requirements by adjusting airflow.

[0065] Step S3: Obtain the ambient temperature inside the vehicle, the surface temperature of the vehicle seats, the air temperature at the outlet of the oil-free air compressor, and the desired temperature set by the user.

[0066] Specifically, the system acquires multiple key temperature data points through various sensors, including the ambient temperature inside the vehicle, the surface temperature of the vehicle seats, the air temperature at the outlet of the oil-free air compressor, and the user-set desired temperature. These parameters allow the system to comprehensively assess the current environmental conditions inside the vehicle.

[0067] Step S5: Determine the temperature control mode based on the comparison between ambient temperature and desired temperature.

[0068] Specifically, intelligent temperature control enables dynamic switching between cooling, heating, and basic ventilation modes to enhance passenger comfort. When the ambient temperature exceeds the set cooling temperature boundary (the sum of the desired temperature and the preset high-temperature threshold), the system activates the cooling ventilation mode; when the temperature falls below the heating temperature boundary (the difference between the desired temperature and the preset low-temperature threshold), the system switches to the heating ventilation mode. When the ambient temperature is between the preset lower and upper temperature limits, the system maintains the basic ventilation mode. This integrated design not only optimizes energy efficiency and reduces unnecessary energy consumption and carbon emissions but also achieves efficient collaboration between various functional modules.

[0069] Step S7: Based on the vehicle seat surface temperature and desired temperature, determine the target fan speed suitable for the temperature control mode, and adjust the airflow rate according to the target fan speed to achieve coordinated operation of oxygen supply and intelligent seat temperature control.

[0070] Specifically, based on the surface temperature of the vehicle seats and the passenger's desired temperature setting, the system intelligently determines the target fan speed suitable for the current temperature control mode. By monitoring seat temperature changes in real time, the system first calculates the required fan speed to ensure that airflow matches the passenger's comfort needs. For example, when the seat surface temperature is higher than the desired temperature, the system increases the fan speed to increase airflow and promote heat dissipation, thereby achieving effective cooling; conversely, if the seat temperature is lower than the desired value, the fan speed decreases to reduce the inflow of cold air and enhance warmth. This intelligent adjustment mechanism based on temperature feedback not only ensures a comfortable experience for passengers under different climatic conditions but also achieves coordinated operation of oxygen supply and seat temperature control, optimizing in-vehicle air quality and improving energy efficiency.

[0071] In one implementation, the target fan speed is converted into an analog voltage signal; the fan adjusts its speed according to the voltage signal to regulate the airflow.

[0072] Specifically, once the target fan speed is determined, the system converts it into a corresponding analog voltage signal. The amplitude of this signal directly corresponds to the fan speed—the higher the voltage, the faster the fan speed, and the greater the airflow. By outputting this analog voltage signal to the fan in the temperature control branch, the system can achieve stepless control of the fan speed. The advantage of this stepless control is that the fan can smoothly transition between different operating states, rather than relying solely on on / off modes (such as low, medium, and high speeds), resulting in more uniform and stable airflow, thereby enhancing the temperature control effect on the seat surface. This analog signal control also brings greater flexibility and responsiveness. When environmental conditions or passenger needs change, the system can quickly adjust the fan speed and adjust the airflow in real time to adapt to new temperature requirements. For example, in hot weather, when the seat surface temperature rises, the system can quickly increase the voltage signal to increase the fan speed and help cool down quickly; while in cold weather, the system will decrease the voltage signal to reduce the fan speed and maintain warmth.

[0073] This embodiment provides a method for operating an in-vehicle oxygen generation and intelligent seat temperature control collaborative system. The system calculates a target fan speed based on the vehicle seat surface temperature and the passenger's desired temperature setting to ensure appropriate airflow and heat exchange, thereby improving passenger comfort. Subsequently, this target fan speed is converted into a corresponding analog voltage signal, directly controlling the temperature control fan in the temperature control branch, achieving stepless adjustment. This stepless adjustment allows for smooth transitions between different fan operating states, avoiding the abrupt changes of traditional on / off modes, resulting in more uniform and stable airflow. When environmental conditions or passenger needs change, the system can quickly adjust the voltage signal, changing the fan speed in real time to adapt to new temperature requirements. Through this precise adjustment, not only can the seat surface temperature be stabilized, but the overall in-vehicle climate environment can also be optimized, improving passenger comfort and satisfaction, while also effectively saving energy.

[0074] Figure 2 The flowchart for step S5 provided in the embodiments of this application may include the following steps:

[0075] Step S51: Determine the heating temperature boundary and the cooling temperature boundary based on the desired temperature and the preset temperature threshold.

[0076] Specifically, the desired temperature is the ideal temperature value set by the user or the system, i.e., the temperature that is desired to be achieved inside the vehicle. Preset temperature thresholds are pre-set temperature limits, including high-temperature and low-temperature thresholds, used in temperature control to determine when cooling or heating is needed. Based on the user-set desired temperature and preset temperature thresholds, appropriate heating and cooling temperature boundaries are calculated. These boundary values ​​provide the basis for subsequent temperature control decisions.

[0077] Step S53: Compare the ambient temperature with the heating temperature boundary, the cooling temperature boundary, and the preset upper and lower temperature limits, and determine the temperature control mode based on the comparison results.

[0078] Specifically, the preset upper limit temperature value is the highest temperature limit set in the system. When this temperature is exceeded, cooling measures need to be taken. The preset lower limit temperature value is the lowest temperature limit set in the system. When this temperature is below this, heating measures need to be taken. The operating mode is determined based on the comparison between the ambient temperature and the temperature boundary, as well as the upper and lower limit temperature values. This includes temperature control modes such as cooling ventilation mode, heating ventilation mode, or basic ventilation mode.

[0079] This embodiment adaptively adjusts the temperature boundary based on the desired temperature and a preset temperature threshold to quickly respond to changes in external temperature. By monitoring the ambient temperature and temperature boundary in real time, and comparing preset upper and lower temperature limits, the system intelligently selects the appropriate temperature control mode (heating, cooling, or ventilation). This innovative integrated solution breaks down the barriers between functional modules in traditional air conditioning systems, enabling information sharing and collaborative work, thereby optimizing resource utilization and improving overall system performance. Simultaneously, by dynamically adjusting the operating mode, the system not only improves energy efficiency but also enhances user comfort, propelling temperature control systems towards intelligence and integration.

[0080] Figure 3 The flowchart for step S51 provided in this application embodiment shows that the preset temperature threshold includes a preset high temperature threshold and a preset low temperature threshold; the process may include the following steps:

[0081] Step S511: The sum between the desired temperature and the preset high temperature threshold is determined as the cooling temperature boundary.

[0082] Specifically, the sum of the desired temperature and the preset high-temperature threshold (i.e., desired temperature + preset high-temperature threshold) is defined as the cooling temperature boundary. When the ambient temperature exceeds this cooling temperature boundary, the system will activate cooling mode to lower the ambient temperature. For example, if the desired temperature is set to 22°C and the preset high-temperature threshold is 25°C, then the cooling temperature boundary is 47°C (22 + 25). This mechanism allows the system to quickly identify changes in ambient temperature and take timely cooling measures. Especially when the external environment suddenly heats up, the system can react rapidly, thus avoiding discomfort caused by excessively high indoor temperatures.

[0083] Step S513: The difference between the desired temperature and the preset low temperature threshold is determined as the heating temperature boundary.

[0084] Specifically, the difference between the desired temperature and the preset low-temperature threshold (i.e., desired temperature - preset low-temperature threshold) is defined as the heating temperature boundary. That is, when the ambient temperature is below this heating temperature boundary, the system will activate the heating mode to raise the ambient temperature. For example, if the desired temperature is 22°C and the preset low-temperature threshold is 20°C, then the heating temperature boundary is 2°C (22-20). This means that when the ambient temperature is below 2°C, the system will activate heating to keep the vehicle interior warm.

[0085] This embodiment defines the cooling temperature boundary as the sum of the desired temperature and a preset high-temperature threshold, ensuring that the system can quickly activate the cooling and ventilation mode when the ambient temperature is too high, thus improving user comfort. Simultaneously, the difference between the desired temperature and a preset low-temperature threshold is defined as the heating temperature boundary, ensuring that the system can promptly activate the heating and ventilation mode to maintain a warm interior environment when the temperature drops sharply. Therefore, it enables the sharing of air resources obtained from the oil-free air compressor with the seats for intelligent temperature control, achieving coordinated operation of oxygen production and seat temperature control.

[0086] Figure 4 The flowchart for step S53 provided in the embodiments of this application may include the following steps:

[0087] Step S531: If the ambient temperature is greater than the cooling temperature boundary and / or the ambient temperature is greater than the preset upper limit temperature value, then the temperature control mode is determined to be the cooling ventilation mode.

[0088] Specifically, if the ambient temperature exceeds the cooling temperature boundary and / or exceeds the preset upper limit temperature value (e.g., 26°C), then it is confirmed that the cooling and ventilation mode needs to be activated. That is, under high temperature conditions, the seat temperature is controlled to reduce it to a comfortable level, thereby improving the passenger experience.

[0089] Step S533: If the ambient temperature is lower than the heating temperature boundary and / or the ambient temperature is lower than the preset lower limit temperature value, then the temperature control mode is determined to be the heating and ventilation mode.

[0090] Specifically, if the ambient temperature is below the heating temperature threshold and / or below the preset lower limit temperature (e.g., 22°C), then it is confirmed that the heating and ventilation mode needs to be activated. In low-temperature conditions, the seat temperature is controlled to ensure that passengers remain warm and avoid discomfort.

[0091] Step S535: If the ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the preset lower limit temperature value and the ambient temperature is less than or equal to the preset upper limit temperature value, then the temperature control mode is determined to be the basic ventilation mode.

[0092] Specifically, when the ambient temperature is within the comfortable range, that is, when the ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the preset lower limit temperature value and less than or equal to the preset upper limit temperature value (22℃≤ambient temperature≤26℃), energy consumption is reduced within the comfortable temperature range.

[0093] This embodiment, through intelligent design, achieves dynamic switching between cooling, heating, and basic ventilation modes, automatically adjusting according to real-time changes in ambient temperature to enhance passenger comfort. This integrated solution breaks down the barriers between traditional functional modules, enabling efficient collaboration and resource sharing. For example, within a suitable temperature range, the system can maintain airflow using the basic ventilation mode without activating additional energy-consuming equipment, thus optimizing energy use. Furthermore, this intelligent adjustment not only reduces unnecessary energy consumption but also lowers carbon emissions during vehicle operation, aligning with sustainable development goals.

[0094] Figure 5 The flowchart of step S7 provided in the embodiments of this application, when the temperature control mode is cooling and ventilation mode, may include the following steps:

[0095] Step S711: When the temperature control mode is set to cooling and ventilation mode, determine the first difference between the vehicle seat surface temperature and the desired temperature.

[0096] Specifically, the first difference (ΔT1) between the vehicle seat surface temperature and the desired temperature is calculated. This first difference reflects the deviation between the vehicle seat surface temperature and the passenger's desired temperature, and is calculated using the following formula: ΔT1 = T seat –T set , among which, T seat T represents the surface temperature of the vehicle seat. set ΔT1 represents the desired temperature. If ΔT1 is positive, it means the vehicle seat surface temperature is higher than the desired temperature, which means that the cooling effect needs to be increased to cool the seat. If ΔT1 is negative, it means the vehicle seat surface temperature is lower than the desired temperature, in which case forced cooling may not be necessary, and even the fan speed can be reduced.

[0097] Step S713: Obtain the solar intensity inside the vehicle.

[0098] Specifically, sensors are used to obtain the solar irradiance (Srad) inside the vehicle. Changes in solar irradiance directly affect the interior temperature, especially under strong sunlight, where the temperature rises rapidly, causing discomfort to passengers. Therefore, obtaining accurate solar irradiance is crucial for subsequent adjustment of fan speed.

[0099] Step S715: Based on the first difference and the solar radiation intensity, determine the target fan speed that is suitable for the cooling and ventilation mode.

[0100] Specifically, based on the first difference (ΔT1) and the solar irradiance (Srad), the system calculates the target fan speed (Fan) suitable for the cooling and ventilation mode using a formula. speed The specific calculation formula is as follows: Fanspeed =f(ΔT1,Srad). The function f can be calculated using a PID controller, which dynamically adjusts the fan speed based on real-time feedback from ΔT1 and Srad. Proportional control (P) directly adjusts the fan speed based on the current ΔT1 and Srad; the larger the difference or the greater the solar radiation intensity, the higher the fan speed, to quickly respond to temperature changes. Integral control (I) accumulates past temperature errors and solar radiation intensity to prevent the system from deviating from the desired temperature for extended periods. When a deviation persists for a long time, the fan speed is increased to improve system responsiveness. Derivative control (D) predicts future temperature change trends and adjusts the fan speed based on the current rate of temperature change, thus avoiding overshoot.

[0101] This embodiment intelligently calculates the target fan speed for the appropriate cooling and ventilation mode by monitoring the difference between the surface temperature of the vehicle seats and the passenger's desired temperature in real time, combined with data on the sunlight intensity inside the vehicle. This integrated design breaks down the barriers between traditional functional modules, enabling the coordinated operation of oxygen generation and seat temperature control, which not only improves passenger comfort but also optimizes energy efficiency.

[0102] Figure 6 The flowchart of step S7 provided in the embodiments of this application, when the temperature control mode is heating and ventilation mode, may include the following steps:

[0103] Step S731: When the temperature control mode is heating and ventilation mode, determine the second difference between the desired temperature and the surface temperature of the vehicle seat.

[0104] Specifically, a second difference (ΔT2) is calculated between the vehicle seat surface temperature and the desired temperature. This second difference reflects the deviation between the vehicle seat surface temperature and the passenger's desired temperature, and is calculated using the following formula: ΔT2 = T set -T seat , among which, T seat T represents the surface temperature of the vehicle seat. set The desired temperature.

[0105] Step S733: Based on the second difference, determine the target fan speed adapted to the heating and ventilation mode.

[0106] Specifically, based on the second difference (ΔT2), the system calculates the target fan speed (Fan speed) suitable for the cooling and ventilation mode using a formula. speed The specific calculation formula is as follows: Fan speed =g(ΔT2). The function g can be calculated using a PID controller, that is, the PID controller dynamically adjusts the fan speed based on the real-time feedback of ΔT2.

[0107] This embodiment calculates a second difference between the real-time monitoring of the vehicle seat surface temperature and the passenger's desired temperature, thereby rapidly responding to the passenger's comfort needs in heating and ventilation mode. Based on this difference, the system further determines the target fan speed suitable for the heating mode, ensuring precise control and high efficiency. This integrated design breaks down the barriers between traditional functional modules, enabling coordinated operation of oxygen generation and seat temperature control, which not only improves passenger comfort but also optimizes energy efficiency.

Temperature control collaboration is achieved through the following steps in this embodiment:

[0109] Step 1001: Heat-generating air is obtained through an oil-free air compressor and then split into an oxygen generation branch and a temperature control branch.

The temperature control branch is configured to regulate the airflow rate through the rotation of a fan to achieve intelligent temperature control of the vehicle seats.

[0110] Step 1002: Obtain the current environmental status: Collect the current ambient temperature inside the vehicle (T). env ), read the surface temperature of each passenger's vehicle seat (T) seat ), measure the solar radiation intensity (Srad) through the car window, and obtain the air temperature (T) at the outlet of the oil-free air compressor. comp ), receives the user-defined desired temperature (T) set ).

[0113] Condition: If the ambient temperature T env Desired temperature T set +Preset high temperature threshold ΔT1, and / or ambient temperature T env >26℃.

[0114] Determine whether to enter heating and ventilation mode:

[0115] Condition: If the ambient temperature T env <Desired temperature T> set- Preset low temperature threshold ΔT2, and / or ambient temperature T env <22℃.

[0116] If within the comfort zone (22℃ ≤ ambient temperature T) env If the temperature is ≤26℃, then the basic ventilation mode will be activated.

[0117] Step 1004: Perform different calculations based on the currently selected temperature control mode to obtain the target fan speed.

[0118] Cooling and ventilation modes:

[0119] Calculate ΔT1 = vehicle seat surface temperature T seat -Desired temperature T set
