Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a pedal detection device, control method and related products. Background Technology

[0002] A pedal testing device is a type of device used to test the durability of a brake pedal by repeatedly pressing it. Taking a vehicle as an example, a pedal testing device is typically installed in front of the brake pedal. By repeatedly pressing the brake pedal using this device, the durability of the brake pedal is verified. However, tests based on existing pedal testing devices are relatively inefficient.

[0003] Therefore, a feasible solution is urgently needed to improve the efficiency of testing based on pedal detection devices. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a pedal detection device, control method, and related products, which can improve the efficiency of testing based on the pedal detection device.

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a pedal detection device, which is applied to a vehicle. The pedal detection device includes: The system comprises a housing, a first drive unit, and a power supply. The first drive unit includes a body portion and a drive portion; at least a portion of the body portion is located within the housing, and at least a portion of the drive portion is located outside the housing. The body portion is connected to the housing, the drive portion is connected to the body portion, and the power supply is fixed within the housing. The power supply is electrically connected to the first drive unit to supply power to it. The drive portion is used to drive the pedal movement of the vehicle.

[0006] In this embodiment, by integrating a power supply within the housing, and with a portion of the first drive component located within the housing, the integration level of the pedal detection device can be improved. When testing with the pedal detection device, the power supply can power the first drive component, driving its drive unit to move, thereby moving the vehicle's pedal. The elimination of the need for an external power supply allows the pedal detection device to operate stably, enabling plug-and-play functionality. This reduces the time required for testers to deploy the test environment and improves the efficiency of testing based on this pedal detection device.

[0007] In some possible implementations, the main body and the power supply are arranged along a first direction; the first direction is the height direction of the housing.

[0008] The above implementation method can make full use of the space of the shell, increase the integration of the pedal detection device, reduce the size of the pedal detection device, and improve the portability and mobility of the pedal detection device.

[0009] In some possible implementations, the pedal detection device also includes a limiting frame, which is fixed inside the housing, and the power supply is fixed to the limiting frame.

[0010] In the above implementation, by setting a limiting frame and then fixing the power supply to the limiting frame, the power supply can be prevented from shaking inside the housing. Furthermore, the power supply can be fixed to the limiting frame first, and then the limiting frame and power supply can be installed together into the housing, increasing assembly convenience.

[0011] In some possible implementations, the pedal detection device also includes a control board; the control board is fixed inside the housing; the control board is electrically connected to the first drive element, and the control board is used to control the first drive element.

[0012] Optionally, the control board and power supply are arranged along a second direction, which is the width direction of the housing.

[0013] In the above implementation, by integrating a control board into the pedal detection device, the movement of the first driving component can be controlled by the control board, thereby improving the integration of the pedal detection device and increasing the efficiency of testing based on the pedal detection device.

[0014] In some possible implementations, the control board uses a first control signal to control the movement of the drive unit. The first control signal is determined based on first information, which includes vehicle information and / or test information for testing the vehicle.

[0015] In the above implementation, the movement of the first driving component is controlled based on information from different sources, thereby improving the efficiency of detecting the vehicle's pedals.

[0016] In some possible implementations, the first control signal is determined based on the motion state of the pedal detection device, the motion state being determined based on the first information, the motion state being used to indicate the range of distances in which the drive unit drives the pedal of the vehicle to move, and the first control signal including controlling the distance of movement of the drive unit.

[0017] In the above implementation, the first control signal determined based on the motion state of the pedal detection device includes the distance of the control drive unit's movement. This distance is used to control the movement of the drive unit, ensuring that the distance the drive unit moves the pedal falls within the range corresponding to the motion state. Therefore, when the pedal detection device is in different motion states, the range of the pedal movement distance differs, resulting in different pedal movement distances. This achieves precise control over the distance of the vehicle's pedal movement, enabling the pedal detection device to meet the needs of different testing scenarios and improving its versatility.

[0018] In some possible implementations, the drive unit includes an output shaft and a push rod; the output shaft is connected to the main body, the push rod is connected to the output shaft, the output shaft drives the push rod to move, and the push rod drives the vehicle's pedals to move.

[0019] In the above implementation, by setting a push rod, the length of the drive unit can be increased, avoiding interference between the housing and the pedal due to the drive unit being too short, and ensuring that the pedal detection device can operate smoothly.

[0020] In some possible implementations, the pedal detection device also includes a control board; the control board is used to control the movement of the output shaft.

[0021] In the above implementation, the control board is used to control the movement of the output shaft, thereby driving the push rod to move, which in turn drives the vehicle's pedal to move, thus achieving automated testing of the vehicle's pedal.

[0022] In some possible implementations, the pedal detection device also includes a slider and a slide rail; the slide rail is fixed to the main body, the slider is fixed to the push rod, and the slider is slidably connected to the slide rail; when the output shaft drives the push rod to move, the slider slides along the slide rail.

[0023] In the above implementation method, by setting sliders and slide rails, the stability of the push rod operation can be increased, avoiding deviations in the detection results due to unstable push rod operation, and improving the accuracy of the detection results.

[0024] In some possible implementations, the main body is rotatably connected to the housing so that the angle between the first drive member and the horizontal direction can be changed.

[0025] In the above implementation, the main body is rotatably connected to the housing, which changes the angle between the first driving member and the horizontal direction, thereby changing the height of the end of the driving member facing the pedal, so that the pedal detection device can be applied to different models of vehicles.

[0026] In some possible implementations, the pedal detection device also includes a support frame with a perforation, a housing with an opening, the support frame being detachably connected to the opening, and the main body or drive unit being able to extend out of the housing through the perforation, the inner wall of the perforation being used to support the first drive unit.

[0027] In the above implementation, the support frame and housing are detachably connected, allowing for easy replacement of the support frame. This means that testers can prepare multiple support frames, each with a different perforation position along the first direction. When the pedal testing device is used on different types of vehicles, after the first drive component rotates to the appropriate position, a suitable support frame can be selected to support the first drive component, ensuring it remains stable in the chosen position.

[0028] In some possible implementations, the contact portion of the push rod is used to contact the pedal, and the contact portion has a convex arc-shaped surface.

[0029] In the above implementation method, using a convex arc surface to contact the vehicle's pedal can prevent the pedal and push rod from jamming, thus ensuring a smooth testing process and increasing the accuracy of the testing results.

[0030] In some possible implementations, the pedal detection device further includes a base and a position adjustment mechanism, the position adjustment mechanism being connected to the base and the housing being connected to the position adjustment mechanism; the position adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the position of the housing in at least one direction to change the position of the drive unit in at least one direction.

[0031] In the above implementation, the position adjustment mechanism can adjust the position of the housing in at least one direction, thereby changing the position of the drive unit in at least one direction, so that the pedal detection device can be applied to more different types of vehicles.

[0032] Among some possible implementations, the position adjustment mechanism includes at least one of the following: a fixed plate, a guide rail, or a slide.

[0033] In the above implementation method, designers can adjust the mechanism to a suitable position according to actual needs, which can increase the flexibility of the position adjustment mechanism design.

[0034] In some possible implementations, the position adjustment mechanism includes a fixed plate and a first fastener. The fixed plate is provided with a plurality of first adjustment holes, which are arranged sequentially at intervals along a first direction. The first direction is the height direction of the housing. The housing is provided with a second adjustment hole, which can be opposite to and communicate with any one of the first adjustment holes to adjust the position of the housing along the first direction. The first fastener passes through the second adjustment hole and the first adjustment hole to fix the housing to the fixed plate.

[0035] In the above implementation, by setting a plurality of first adjustment holes arranged at intervals along the first direction on the fixed plate, the position of the housing along the first direction can be adjusted, thereby changing the position of the drive unit along the first direction, so that the pedal detection device can be used to detect more different types of vehicles.

[0036] In some possible implementations, the position adjustment mechanism further includes: a second fastener; a fixing plate having multiple third adjustment holes arranged at intervals along a second direction, the second direction being the width direction of the housing; a base having a fourth adjustment hole, the fourth adjustment hole being able to be opposite to and communicate with any one of the fourth adjustment holes to adjust the position of the housing along the second direction; and a second fastener passing through the third and fourth adjustment holes to fix the fixing plate to the base.

[0037] In the above implementation, by providing multiple third adjustment holes arranged sequentially at intervals along the second direction on the fixed plate, the position of the housing along the second direction can be adjusted, thereby changing the position of the drive unit along the second direction, so that the pedal detection device can be applied to detect more different types of vehicles.

[0038] In some possible implementations, the position adjustment mechanism further includes: a second fastener; a fixing plate having a third adjustment hole; a base having multiple fourth adjustment holes arranged at intervals along a third direction, the third direction being the length direction of the housing; the third adjustment hole being able to be opposite to and connected to any one of the fourth adjustment holes to adjust the position of the housing along the direction; and the second fastener passing through the third and fourth adjustment holes to fix the fixing plate to the base.

[0039] In the above implementation, multiple fourth adjustment holes are arranged at intervals along a third direction on the base to adjust the position of the housing along the third direction, thereby changing the position of the drive unit along the third direction, so that the pedal detection device can be used to detect more different types of vehicles.

[0040] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a control method applied to a pedal detection circuit as described in the first aspect or any possible implementation of the first aspect; the control method includes: First information is acquired, including vehicle information and / or test information for testing the vehicle. Based on the first information, a first control signal is generated, which is used to control the movement of the drive unit to drive the vehicle's pedals.

[0041] In this embodiment, the control device can generate a first control signal to control the movement of the first driving component using the first information, and then use the first control signal to control the driving part in the first driving component to drive the vehicle's pedal movement. Since the first information can be information provided by the vehicle or information input by the user, the movement of the first driving component can be controlled based on information from different sources, thereby improving the efficiency of testing the vehicle's pedals.

[0042] Among some possible implementations, the first control signal is generated based on the first information, including: Based on the first information, the motion state of the pedal detection device is determined, and the motion state indicates the range of distance the drive unit moves by driving the vehicle's pedal. A first control signal is determined based on the motion state of the pedal detection device, and the first control signal includes controlling the distance the drive unit moves.

[0043] In the above implementation, the first control signal determined by the control device based on the motion state of the pedal detection device includes the distance of the control drive unit's movement, and uses this distance to ensure that the distance the drive unit moves the pedal is within the range corresponding to the motion state, thereby achieving precise control over the distance of the vehicle's pedal movement, meeting the needs of pedal detection in different test scenarios, and improving the versatility of pedal detection.

[0044] Optionally, the motion state of the pedal detection device includes a first motion state and a second motion state. When the motion state of the pedal detection device is the first motion state, the first control signal controls the drive unit to move a distance of a first distance. The first motion state is used to indicate that the distance the drive unit moves the pedal is within a first interval. When the distance the drive unit moves is the first distance, the distance the drive unit moves the pedal is within the first interval.

[0045] When the pedal detection device is in the second motion state, the first control signal controls the push rod to move a distance of the second distance. The first distance is different from the second distance. The second motion state is used to indicate that the distance the push rod moves the vehicle's pedal is within the second interval. When the distance the push rod moves is the second distance, the distance the push rod moves the pedal is within the second interval. The second interval does not overlap with the first interval.

[0046] Thirdly, embodiments of this application provide a control device that includes units for performing the method as described in any of the second aspects.

In summary, the use of prefixes to distinguish descriptive objects in this application does not constitute a limitation on the described objects. The description of the described objects is given in the claims or the context of the embodiments, and the use of such prefixes should not constitute unnecessary restrictions.

[0072] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the pedal 200 testing device provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 2 This is a structural schematic diagram of the pedal 200 testing device provided in an embodiment of this application from another perspective.

[0073] This application provides a pedal detection device 1000, which is applied to a vehicle. Here, "vehicle" is used in a broad sense, including transportation vehicles (such as commercial vehicles, passenger cars, motorcycles, flying cars, trains, etc.), industrial vehicles (such as forklifts, trailers, tractors, etc.), engineering vehicles (such as excavators, bulldozers, cranes, etc.), agricultural equipment (such as lawnmowers, harvesters, etc.). Furthermore, the robot can be an automated guided vehicle (AGV), a walking conversational robot, or a service robot.

[0074] The pedal detection device 1000 includes a housing 10, a first drive member 20, and a power supply 30. The first drive member 20 includes a body portion 21 and a drive portion 22; at least a portion of the body portion 21 is located inside the housing 10, and at least a portion of the drive portion 22 is located outside the housing 10. The first drive member 20 can be a motor or a cylinder. The motor body portion 21 includes a housing and brushes, etc., and the motor drive portion 22 can include an output shaft 23. The cylinder body portion 21 includes a cylinder block, and the cylinder drive portion 22 can include an output shaft 23 (also called a connecting rod).

[0075] The main body 21 is connected to the housing 10, the drive unit 22 is connected to the main body 21, and the power supply 30 is fixed inside the housing 10. The power supply 30 is electrically connected to the first drive member 20 to supply power to the first drive member 20. The drive unit 22 is used to drive the pedal 200 of the vehicle to move.

[0076] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to test the vehicle's pedal 200, the pedal detection device 1000 can be placed in the driver's seat of the vehicle, so that the drive part 22 of the first drive member 20 is opposite to the pedal 200. Then, the first drive member 20 is started, so that the drive part 22 of the first drive member 20 drives the pedal 200 to move.

[0077] In this embodiment, by integrating the power supply 30 within the housing 10, and with a portion of the first drive member 20 located within the housing 10, the integration level of the pedal detection device 1000 can be improved. When testing using the pedal detection device 1000, the power supply 30 can power the first drive member 20 to drive the drive section 22 of the first drive member 20, thereby driving the vehicle's pedal 200. The pedal detection device 1000 can operate stably without an external power supply 30; for example, the power supply 30 can power the pedal detection device 1000 continuously for eight hours. It is plug-and-play, reducing the time required for testers to deploy the test environment and improving the efficiency of testing based on the pedal detection device 1000.

[0078] In addition, the pedal detection device 1000 provided in this embodiment has a relatively simple structure and a light total weight, which can reduce the cost of mass deployment and make it easy to carry and move.

[0079] For example, the housing 10 is cuboid in shape. For ease of description, the length direction of the housing 10 is defined as the X-axis, the width direction as the Y-axis, and the thickness direction as the Z-axis. The X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis are mutually perpendicular. In this embodiment, setting the housing 10 to a cuboid shape can improve the structural compactness of the pedal detection device 1000. Alternatively, the housing 10 can also be other regular shapes such as a cube, cylinder, or trapezoid, or it can be an irregular shape.

[0080] It should be noted that the directional terms such as "top," "upper," "bottom," "lower," "left," "right," "front," and "rear" used in the description of the housing 10 in this application are mainly based on the location of the housing 10 in the attached... Figure 1 The orientation of the display is described in terms of the positive direction of the Z-axis as "top" or "up", the negative direction of the Z-axis as "bottom" or "down", the positive direction of the Y-axis as "right", the negative direction of the Y-axis as "left", the negative direction of the X-axis as "back", and the positive direction of the X-axis as "front". This does not constitute a limitation on the orientation of the shell 10 in the actual application scenario.

[0081] For example, when the housing 10 is cuboid in shape, it includes a top plate 11, a bottom plate 12, a front plate 13, a rear plate 14, a left side plate 15, and a right side plate 16. The top plate 11 and the bottom plate 12 are opposite each other along the Z-axis, the front plate 13 and the rear plate 14 are opposite each other along the X-axis, and the left side plate 15 and the right side plate 16 are opposite each other along the Y-axis. The top plate 11, the bottom plate 12, the front plate 13, the rear plate 14, the left side plate 15, and the right side plate 16 form a receiving cavity 10a. The housing 10 can be manufactured using sheet metal bending technology to reduce costs.

[0082] At least a portion of the body portion 21 is located within the housing 10, and at least a portion of the drive portion 22 is located outside the housing 10. This means that at least a portion of the body portion 21 is located within the receiving cavity 10a, and at least a portion of the drive portion 22 is located outside the receiving cavity 10a. Exemplarily, the entire body portion 21 is located within the receiving cavity 10a, a portion of the drive portion 22 is located within the receiving cavity 10a, and another portion of the drive portion 22 is located outside the receiving cavity 10a. One end of the body portion 21 away from the drive portion 22 is connected to the housing 10, and the other end of the drive portion 22 away from the body portion 21 extends outside the housing 10. Optionally, one end of the body portion 21 away from the drive portion 22 is connected to the rear plate 14 of the housing 10, and the other end of the drive portion 22 away from the body portion 21 extends outside the housing 10 from the front plate 13.

[0083] Alternatively, a portion of the body part 21 is located inside the receiving cavity 10a, another portion of the body part 21 is located inside the receiving cavity 10a, and the entire drive part 22 is located outside the receiving cavity 10a.

[0084] Optionally, the housing 10 also includes a first handle 17, which is fixed to the top of the housing 10. For example, the first handle 17 is fixed to the outer surface of the top plate 11 of the housing 10, and the first handle 17 can facilitate the tester to grasp it, thereby increasing the portability of the housing 10.

[0085] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 The main body 21 and the power supply 30 are arranged along a first direction; the first direction is the height direction (Z-axis direction) of the housing 10. In this embodiment, the space of the housing 10 can be fully utilized to increase the integration of the pedal detection device 1000, reduce the volume of the pedal detection device 1000, and improve the portability and mobility of the pedal detection device 1000.

[0086] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 The pedal detection device 1000 also includes a limiting frame 40, which is fixed inside the housing 10, and the power supply 30 is fixed to the limiting frame 40.

[0087] For example, the limiting frame 40 is L-shaped and includes a first limiting plate 41 and a second limiting plate 42. The bottom surface of the first limiting plate 41 contacts the bottom plate 12 of the housing 10, and the second limiting plate 42 is fixed to the top surface of the first limiting plate 41 and perpendicular to the first limiting plate 41. The first limiting plate 41 and the second limiting plate 42 enclose a limiting space, and the power supply 30 is fixed within this limiting space. The bottom surface of the power supply 30 contacts the top surface of the first limiting plate 41, and one side of the power supply 30 contacts the second limiting plate 42. The limiting frame 40 and the housing 10 can be connected by fasteners or by a snap-fit ​​and slot structure.

[0088] By setting a limiting frame 40 and then fixing the power supply 30 to the limiting frame 40, the power supply 30 can be prevented from shaking inside the housing 10. Furthermore, the power supply 30 can be fixed to the limiting frame 40 first, and then the limiting frame 40 and the power supply 30 can be installed together into the housing 10, which can increase the ease of assembly.

[0089] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 The pedal detection device 1000 also includes a control board 50; the control board 50 is fixed inside the housing 10. The control board 50 is electrically connected to the first drive member 20, and the control board 50 is used to control the first drive member 20.

[0090] For example, a switch button 10b, an indicator light 10c, and a display screen 10d may be provided on the exterior of the housing 10. The switch button 10b, indicator light 10c, and display screen 10d are all electrically connected to the control board 50. The tester can control the start or stop of the first drive unit 20 via the switch button 10b. The indicator light 10c can indicate the status of the pedal detection device 1000, including working status, standby status, or fault status. The display screen 10d can display the status of the pedal detection device 1000, such as operating time and temperature.

[0091] The control board 50 can be a printed circuit board. The control board 50 controls the movement of the first driving member 20, causing one end of the driving part of the first driving member 20, away from the body part 21, to extend out of the housing 10 from the front plate 13, thereby driving the pedal 200. In this embodiment, by integrating the control board 50 into the pedal detection device 1000, the movement of the first driving member 20 is controlled by the control board 50, improving the integration level of the pedal detection device 1000 and increasing the efficiency of testing based on the pedal detection device 1000.

[0092] In one possible implementation, refer to Figure 2 The power supply 30 and the control board 50 are arranged along the second direction, which is the width direction (Y-axis direction) of the housing 10.

[0093] In another possible implementation, the power supply 30 and the control board 50 are arranged along a first direction, with the control board 50 fixed to the power supply 30.

[0094] In this embodiment, based on the arrangement of the power supply 30 and the control board 50, the integration of the pedal detection device 1000 can be increased, the size of the pedal detection device 1000 can be reduced, and the portability and mobility of the pedal detection device 1000 can be improved.

[0095] In one possible implementation, the control board 50 outputs a high or low level. When the first drive unit 20 receives a high level, the drive unit 22 moves toward the pedal 200 to drive the pedal 200. When the first drive unit 20 receives a low level, the drive unit 22 moves away from the pedal 200 to return to the initial position of the first drive unit 20.

[0096] In another possible implementation, the control board 50 sends a first control signal to the first drive member 20, the first control signal being used to control the movement of the drive unit 22. After receiving the first control signal, the drive unit 22 moves toward the pedal 200 to drive the pedal 200 to move, wherein the first control signal is determined based on first information, the first information including vehicle information and / or test information for testing the vehicle.

[0097] Optionally, vehicle information may include, but is not limited to, vehicle speed, acceleration, and other information.

[0098] Optionally, the test information for testing the vehicle may include, but is not limited to, the number of times the pedal needs to be moved, the movement distance of the first drive component 20, and other information.

[0099] Based on the first information, the control board 50 determines the first control signal and sends the first control signal to the first drive member 20 to control the movement of the drive unit 22.

[0100] For example, the first information includes the vehicle speed, and if the speed is greater than a first threshold, the control board 50 determines that the vehicle pedal 200 needs to be moved to reduce the vehicle speed based on the vehicle speed. Based on this, the control board 50 generates a first control signal based on the first information and sends the first control signal to the first drive unit 20 to control the drive unit 22 to move, thereby driving the vehicle pedal 200 to move, so as to reduce the vehicle speed below the first threshold.

[0101] For example, the first information includes the number of times the pedal is expected to move. When the number of times the pedal is expected to move is greater than 0, the control board 50 determines that the vehicle's pedal 200 needs to be moved. Based on this, the control board 50 generates a first control signal based on the first information and sends the first control signal to the first drive member 20 to control the drive unit 22 to move, thereby driving the vehicle's pedal 200 to move until the number of times the pedal is expected to move drops to 0.

[0102] In this embodiment, the control board 50 can generate a first control signal to control the movement of the first driving member 20 using the first information, and use the first control signal to control the driving part 22 in the first driving member 20 to drive the vehicle's pedal 200 to move. Since the first information can be vehicle information or test information input by the user, the movement of the first driving member 20 can be controlled based on information from different sources, thereby improving the efficiency of testing based on the pedal detection device 1000.

[0103] In some possible embodiments, the first control signal is determined based on the motion state of the pedal detection device 1000, the motion state is determined based on first information, the motion state is used to indicate the range of the distance the drive unit 22 drives the pedal 200 of the vehicle to move, and the first control signal includes controlling the distance the drive unit 22 moves.

[0104] Optionally, the motion state of the pedal detection device 1000 includes a first motion state and a second motion state. The first motion state indicates that the distance traveled by the drive unit 22 to drive the pedal 200 of the vehicle is within a first range, and the second motion state indicates that the distance traveled by the drive unit 22 to drive the pedal 200 of the vehicle is within a second range.

[0105] Optionally, when the pedal detection device 1000 is in a first motion state, the first control signal controls the drive unit 22 to move a distance of a first distance, and the drive unit 22 drives the pedal 200 to move a distance within a first range. When the pedal detection device 1000 is in a second motion state, the first control signal controls the drive unit 22 to move a distance of a second distance, and the drive unit 22 drives the pedal 200 to move a distance within a second range.

[0106] In one possible implementation scenario, when the distance traveled by pedal 200 is within a first range, the amplitude of pedal 200 movement is small. When the distance traveled by pedal 200 is within a second range, the amplitude of pedal 200 movement is large. Braking tests are performed using the pedal detection device 1000. When the vehicle speed exceeds a first threshold, a first control signal controls the drive unit 22 to move a second distance, so that the distance traveled by pedal 200 is within the second range and the amplitude of pedal 200 movement is large, thereby achieving emergency braking of the test vehicle. When the vehicle speed is below the first threshold, the first control signal controls the drive unit 22 to move a first distance, so that the distance traveled by pedal 200 is within the first range and the amplitude of pedal 200 movement is small, thereby achieving slow braking of the test vehicle.

[0107] Optionally, the first distance and the second distance mentioned above are not fixed values ​​and can be adjusted according to different scenarios to improve the accuracy of pedal detection. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0108] In one possible implementation, the first control signal includes a first field, which indicates the distance the drive unit 22 moves. When the first field is 0, the first control signal controls the drive unit 22 to move a first distance. When the first field is 1, the first control signal controls the drive unit 22 to move a second distance.

[0109] In another possible implementation, the first control signal includes either a first distance or a second distance. When the first control signal includes a first distance, the distance by which the drive unit 22 moves under the control of the first control signal is the first distance. When the first control signal includes a second distance, the distance by which the drive unit 22 moves under the control of the first control signal is the second distance.

[0110] In this embodiment, the first control signal determined based on the motion state of the pedal detection device 1000 includes the distance the drive unit 22 moves. This distance is used to control the drive unit 22 to move, so that the distance the drive unit 22 drives the pedal 200 to move is within the range corresponding to the motion state. Therefore, when the pedal detection device 1000 is in different motion states, the range of the pedal 200's movement is different, and the pedal 200's movement distance is different, thereby achieving precise control over the movement distance of the vehicle's pedal 200. This allows the pedal detection device 1000 to meet the needs of different testing scenarios and improves its versatility.

[0111] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 The drive unit 22 also includes a push rod 24; the output shaft 23 is connected to the main body 21, the push rod 24 is connected to the output shaft 23, the output shaft 23 drives the push rod 24 to move, and the push rod 24 drives the vehicle's pedal 200 to move.

[0112] In this embodiment, by setting the push rod 24, the length of the drive unit 22 can be increased, avoiding interference between the housing 10 and the pedal 200 due to the drive unit 22 being too short, and ensuring that the pedal detection device 1000 can operate smoothly.

[0113] In some possible embodiments, the drive unit 22 includes an output shaft 23 and a push rod 24, and the pedal detection device 1000 also includes a control board 50.

[0114] In this embodiment, the control board 50 is used to control the movement of the output shaft 23, thereby causing the output shaft 23 to drive the push rod 24 to move, which in turn enables the push rod 24 to drive the vehicle's pedal 200 to move, ensuring the automated operation of the pedal detection device 1000.

[0115] In some possible embodiments, the control board 50 determines a first control signal based on the first information and sends the first control signal to the first drive 20 to control the movement of the output shaft 23.

[0116] In this embodiment, the control board 50 can generate a first control signal to control the movement of the first driving member 20 using the first information, and use the first control signal to control the movement of the output shaft 23 in the first driving member 20, thereby driving the push rod 24 to move using the output shaft 23, and then driving the vehicle's pedal 200 to move using the push rod 24. Since the first information can be vehicle information or test information input by the user, the movement of the output shaft 23 can be controlled based on information from different sources, improving the efficiency of testing based on the pedal detection device 1000.

[0117] In some possible embodiments, the first control signal is determined based on the motion state of the pedal detection device 1000, which is determined based on first information. The motion state is used to indicate the range of distances in which the output shaft 23 drives the pedal 200 of the vehicle to move. The first control signal includes controlling the distance the output shaft 23 moves.

[0118] Optionally, the motion state of the pedal detection device 1000 includes a first motion state and a second motion state. The first motion state indicates that the distance the push rod 24 drives the vehicle's pedal 200 to move is within a first range, and the second motion state indicates that the distance the push rod 24 drives the vehicle's pedal 200 to move is within a second range.

[0119] Optionally, when the pedal detection device 1000 is in the first motion state, the first control signal controls the output shaft 23 to move a first distance, the output shaft 23 drives the push rod 24 to move a first distance, and the push rod 24 drives the pedal 200 to move a distance within a first range. When the pedal detection device 1000 is in the second motion state, the first control signal controls the output shaft 23 to move a second distance, the output shaft 23 drives the push rod 24 to move a second distance, and the push rod 24 drives the pedal 200 to move a distance within a second range.

[0120] In this embodiment, when the pedal detection device 1000 is in different motion states, the first control signal controls the output shaft 23 to move different distances, causing the output shaft 23 to drive the push rod 24 to move different distances. This, in turn, causes the push rod 24 to drive the pedal 200 to move within different ranges, resulting in different distances of push rod movement. By allowing the pedal 200 to move different distances, the pedal detection device 1000 can meet the needs of different testing scenarios, improving its versatility.

[0121] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 This is a partial structural diagram of the pedal 200 testing device provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 4This is another partial structural diagram of the pedal 200 testing device provided in this application embodiment. The pedal testing device 1000 also includes a slider 60 and a slide rail 61. The slide rail 61 is fixed on the main body 21, and the slider 60 is fixed on the push rod 24. The slider 60 is slidably connected to the slide rail 61. When the output shaft 23 drives the push rod 24 to move, the slider 60 slides along the slide rail 61.

[0122] For example, a portion of the slide rail 61 is located inside the housing 10 and is fixedly connected to the body portion 21, while another portion of the slide rail 61 is located outside the housing 10 and is connected to the push rod 24.

[0123] In this embodiment, by setting the slider 60 and the slide rail 61, the stability of the push rod 24 can be increased, avoiding deviations in the detection results due to the unstable operation of the push rod 24, and improving the accuracy of the detection results.

[0124] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 The main body 21 is rotatably connected to the housing 10 so that the angle between the first driving member 20 and the horizontal direction can be changed. The angle between the first driving member 20 and the horizontal direction refers to the angle between the axial direction of the first driving member 20 and the horizontal direction, where the horizontal direction can be the X-axis direction.

[0125] For example, the housing 10 is provided with a first connecting part 19, which is fixed to the rear plate 14 of the housing 10. The body part 21 of the first driving member 20 is provided with a second connecting part 27 at the end away from the driving part 22. The first connecting part 19 and the second connecting part 27 are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft 28 to realize the rotatable connection between the body part 21 and the housing 10.

[0126] The height of the pedal 200 from the floor of the vehicle varies for different vehicle models. In this embodiment, the main body 21 is rotatably connected to the housing 10, so that the angle between the first drive member 20 and the horizontal direction changes, thereby changing the height of the end of the drive member 22 facing the pedal 200, so that the pedal detection device 1000 can be applied to different vehicle models.

[0127] Assuming the initial state, the first drive member 20 is parallel to the horizontal direction. For example, when the pedal 200 of a certain model is at a high height above the vehicle floor, the main body 21 can be rotated to gradually increase the angle between the first drive member 20 and the horizontal direction. At this time, the drive unit 22 gradually tilts upward, and the distance between the end of the drive unit 22 facing the pedal 200 and the floor gradually increases, ensuring that the drive unit 22 can smoothly contact the vehicle's pedal 200 after the first drive member 20 is activated. When the pedal 200 of a certain model is at a low height above the vehicle floor, the main body 21 can be rotated to gradually increase the angle between the first drive member 20 and the horizontal direction. At this time, the drive unit 22 gradually tilts downward, and the distance between the end of the drive unit 22 facing the pedal 200 and the floor gradually decreases, ensuring that the drive unit 22 can smoothly contact the vehicle's pedal 200 after the first drive member 20 is activated.

[0128] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pedal detection device 1000 also includes a support frame 70, which has a through hole 71. The housing 10 has an opening, and the support frame 70 is detachably connected to the opening. The main body 21 or the drive part 22 can extend out of the housing 10 through the through hole 71. The inner wall surface of the through hole 71 is used to support the first drive member 20.

[0129] For example, the support frame 70 and the housing 10 can be detachably connected by fasteners or snap-fit ​​structures.

[0130] For example, the support frame 70 may include a support plate 72 and a surrounding plate 73. The support plate 72 has a first hole extending through it in the thickness direction. The surrounding plate 73 is fixed to the support plate 72 and surrounds the first hole. The surrounding plate 73 forms a second hole, and the first hole and the second hole communicate to form a through hole 71.

[0131] In this embodiment, the support frame 70 and the housing 10 are detachably connected, allowing for easy replacement of the support frame 70. That is, the tester can prepare multiple support frames 70, each with a different position of the through hole 71 along the first direction (Z-axis). When the pedal 200 testing device is used for different types of vehicles, after the first drive member 20 rotates to a suitable position, a suitable support frame 70 can be selected to support the first drive member 20, ensuring that the first drive member 20 is stably positioned in the chosen location.

[0132] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figures 1 to 4 The contact portion 25 of the push rod 24 is used to contact the pedal 200, and the contact portion 25 is provided with a convex arc-shaped surface.

[0133] For example, the contact portion 25 may include a roller 26, which is rotatably connected to the push rod 24 via a pivot. The axial direction of the roller 26 is parallel to the Y-axis, and there may be two rollers 26. The outer peripheral surface of the roller 26 is a convex arc-shaped surface. When the pedal detection device 1000 performs detection, the outer peripheral surface of the roller 26 contacts the pedal 200 of the vehicle. Alternatively, the contact portion 25 may include a spherical or hemispherical component, the outer surface of which is a convex arc-shaped surface. When the pedal detection device 1000 performs detection, the spherical or hemispherical component can contact the pedal 200.

[0134] Compared to solutions that use clips or connecting plates to contact the pedal 200, this embodiment uses a convex arc surface to contact the vehicle's pedal 200, which can prevent the pedal 200 and push rod 24 from jamming, ensuring a smooth testing process and increasing the accuracy of the testing results.

[0135] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pedal detection device 1000 may further include a protective housing 91, which is fitted onto the first drive member 20. The entire body portion 21, the entire output shaft 23, and a portion of the push rod 24 of the first drive member 20 are located inside the protective housing 91, while the portion of the push rod 24 connected to the contact portion 25 is located outside the protective housing 91. The aforementioned slide rail 61 and slider 60 are also located inside the protective housing 91. The second connecting portion 27 extends beyond the protective housing 91 to facilitate connection between the second connecting portion 27 and the first connecting portion 19.

[0136] In this embodiment, the protective shell 91 can protect the first driving component 20, the slider 60 and the slide rail 61, and can also prevent test personnel from coming into contact with the slider 60 and the slide rail 61 and causing danger.

[0137] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of another pedal 200 testing device provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 6 This is a partial structural schematic diagram of another pedal 200 testing device provided in an embodiment of this application. The pedal testing device 1000 also includes a base 80 and a position adjustment mechanism 100. The position adjustment mechanism 100 is connected to the base 80, and the housing 10 is connected to the position adjustment mechanism 100. The position adjustment mechanism 100 is used to adjust the position of the housing 10 along at least one direction to change the position of the drive unit 22 along at least one direction.

[0138] For example, the position adjustment mechanism 100 can adjust the position of the housing 10 along at least one of the first direction, the second direction, or the third direction to change the position of the drive unit 22 along at least one of the first direction, the second direction, or the third direction.

[0139] In this embodiment, the base 80 can be plate-shaped and can be used to support the position adjustment mechanism 100 and the housing 10. When it is necessary to carry or move the pedal detection device 1000, the entire pedal detection device 1000 can be moved by moving the base 80, which increases the portability of the pedal detection device 1000. For example, the base plate 12 can be connected to a second handle 81. There can be two second handles 81, which are arranged at intervals along a second direction. The second handles 81 can facilitate the tester to grasp the device, thereby increasing the portability of the pedal detection device 1000.

[0140] In this embodiment, the position adjustment mechanism 100 can adjust the position of the housing 10 in at least one direction, thereby changing the position of the drive unit 22 in at least one direction, so that the pedal detection device 1000 can be applied to more different types of vehicles.

[0141] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 6 The pedal detection device 1000 also includes a mounting frame 90 for placing a weight, which can be a counterweight. The mounting frame 90 and the housing 10 are arranged along a second direction. The mounting frame 90 can be fixed to the upper surface of the base 80. In this embodiment, by setting the mounting frame 90 and placing the weight inside the mounting frame 90, the weight presses the base 80 firmly, preventing the pedal detection device 1000 from shaking.

[0142] Alternatively, the base 80 can be attached to the floor of the driver's seat in the vehicle using Velcro. Alternatively, the base 80 may include a mounting bracket at its base for connection to a seat rail in the vehicle, allowing the base 80 to be positioned within the vehicle.

[0143] In some possible embodiments, the position adjustment mechanism 100 includes at least one of the following: a fixed plate 110, a guide rail, and a slide. In this embodiment, the designer can choose a suitable position adjustment mechanism 100 according to actual needs, which can increase the design flexibility of the position adjustment mechanism 100.

[0144] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The position adjustment mechanism 100 includes a fixing plate 110 and a first fastener (not shown). The fixing plate 110 is provided with a plurality of first adjustment holes 111, which are arranged at intervals along a first direction; the first direction is the height direction of the housing 10. (Reference) Figure 1 The housing 10 is provided with a second adjustment hole 18, which can be opposite to and communicate with any one of the first adjustment holes 111 to adjust the position of the housing 10 along the first direction; the first fastener passes through the second adjustment hole 18 and the first adjustment hole 111 to fix the housing 10 to the fixing plate 110.

[0145] For example, there may be five first adjustment holes. Alternatively, there may be two, three, four, or six first adjustment holes 111, etc. When the pedal 200 is at a high height, the uppermost first adjustment hole 111 and second adjustment hole 18 can be aligned, for example, the first first adjustment hole 111 and second adjustment hole 18 from top to bottom can be aligned. When the pedal 200 is at a low height, the lowermost first adjustment hole 111 and second adjustment hole 18 can be aligned, for example, the fifth first adjustment hole 111 and second adjustment hole 18 from top to bottom can be aligned, so that the pedal detection device 1000 can be adapted to pedals 200 of various heights.

[0146] For example, refer to Figure 6 The fixing plate 110 includes a first plate 112 and a second plate 113, which are L-shaped and fixedly connected. A first adjustment hole 111 is provided in the first plate 112, penetrating the first plate 112 along its thickness direction. The second plate 113 is used for fixed connection with the base 80, and the second plate 113 and the base 80 are in surface contact, which can increase the reliability of the connection between the base 80 and the fixing plate 110. Optionally, the second plate 113 and the base 80 can be fixed by welding, fastener connection, or snap-fit ​​connection, etc.

[0147] For example, there can be two fixing plates 110, which are respectively disposed on the front and rear sides of the housing 10. Both the front plate 13 and the rear plate 14 of the housing 10 are provided with second adjustment holes 18. The second adjustment holes 18 on the front plate 13 can cooperate with the front fixing plate 110, and the second adjustment holes 18 on the rear plate 14 can cooperate with the rear fixing plate 110 to increase the stability of the housing 10. Each fixing plate 110 can be provided with two sets of first adjustment holes 111, which are arranged at intervals along a second direction. For example, each set of first adjustment holes 111 contains five holes.

[0148] For example, both the first adjustment hole 111 and the second adjustment hole 18 can be threaded holes, and the first fastener can be a bolt. The bolt is threadedly connected to the first adjustment hole 111 and the second adjustment hole 18 so that the housing 10 is fixed to the fixing plate 110.

[0149] In this embodiment, by providing a plurality of first adjustment holes 111 arranged sequentially at intervals along the first direction on the fixing plate 110, the position of the housing 10 along the first direction can be adjusted, thereby changing the position of the drive unit 22 along the first direction, so that the pedal detection device 1000 can be applied to detect more different types of vehicles.

[0150] In some possible embodiments, reference is made to Figure 6The position adjustment mechanism 100 also includes a second fastener (not shown). The fixing plate 110 is provided with a plurality of third adjustment holes 114, which are arranged sequentially at intervals along the second direction. The base 80 is provided with a fourth adjustment hole 82, which can be opposite to and communicate with any one of the fourth adjustment holes 82 to adjust the position of the housing 10 along the second direction. The second fastener passes through the third adjustment holes 114 and the fourth adjustment holes 82 to fix the fixing plate 110 to the base 80.

[0151] For example, there can be three third adjustment holes. The third adjustment hole 114 can be disposed on the second plate 113, and the third adjustment hole 114 penetrates the second plate 113 along its thickness direction. Alternatively, there can be two, four, five, or six third adjustment holes 114, etc. Taking the driver's seat on the left side of the vehicle as an example, the left side of the pedal 200 is the left door of the vehicle, and the right side of the pedal 200 is the partition between the driver's and passenger's seats. When the pedal 200 is closer to its left door, the left-hand third adjustment hole 114 and the fourth adjustment hole 82 can be selected to be opposite each other. For example, the first third adjustment hole 114 and the fourth adjustment hole 82 from left to right can be selected to be opposite each other. When the pedal 200 is closer to its right partition, the right-hand third adjustment hole 114 and the fourth adjustment hole 82 can be selected to be opposite each other. For example, the third third adjustment hole 114 and the fourth adjustment hole 82 from left to right can be selected to be opposite each other, so that the pedal detection device 1000 can be adapted to pedals 200 with different positions in the second direction.

[0152] There are two fixing plates 110, and each fixing plate 110 is provided with two sets of third adjustment holes 114. The two sets of third adjustment holes 114 are arranged at intervals along the second direction.

[0153] For example, both the third adjustment hole 114 and the fourth adjustment hole 82 can be threaded holes, and the second fastener can be a bolt. The bolt is threaded into the third adjustment hole 114 and the fourth adjustment hole 82 so that the fixing plate 110 is fixed to the base 80.

[0154] In this embodiment, by providing a plurality of third adjustment holes 114 arranged sequentially at intervals along the second direction on the fixed plate 110, the position of the housing 10 along the second direction can be adjusted, thereby changing the position of the drive unit 22 along the second direction, so that the pedal detection device 1000 can be applied to detect more different types of vehicles.

[0155] In some possible embodiments, the base 80 is provided with a plurality of fourth adjustment holes 82, which are arranged sequentially at intervals along a third direction, the third direction being the length direction (X-axis direction) of the housing 10; the third adjustment hole 114 can be opposite to and communicate with any one of the fourth adjustment holes 82 to adjust the position of the housing 10 along the direction; the second fastener passes through the third adjustment hole 114 and the fourth adjustment hole 82 to fix the fixing plate 110 to the base 80.

[0156] For example, there can be ten fourth adjustment holes 82, which extend through the base 80 along its thickness direction. Alternatively, there can be four, six, eight, twelve, or fourteen fourth adjustment holes 82. When the pedal 200 is positioned relatively forward, the forward fourth adjustment hole 82 can be aligned with the third adjustment hole 114, for example, the second fourth adjustment hole 82 from the front can be aligned with the third adjustment hole 114. When the pedal 200 is positioned relatively backward, the backward fourth adjustment hole 82 can be aligned with the third adjustment hole 114, for example, the eighth fourth adjustment hole 82 from the front can be aligned with the third adjustment hole 114.

[0157] For example, the base 80 may be provided with four sets of fourth adjustment holes 82, wherein two sets of fourth adjustment holes 82 correspond to one of the fixing plates 110, and the other two sets of fourth adjustment holes 82 correspond to another fixing plate 110.

[0158] In this embodiment, by providing a plurality of fourth adjustment holes 82 arranged sequentially at intervals along the third direction on the base 80, the position of the housing 10 along the third direction can be adjusted, thereby changing the position of the drive unit 22 along the third direction, so that the pedal detection device 1000 can be used to detect more different types of vehicles.

[0159] In other embodiments, reference is made to Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is another partial structural diagram of a different pedal 200 testing device provided in an embodiment of this application. The position adjustment mechanism 100 may include guide rails. Exemplarily, the position adjustment mechanism 100 may include a first guide rail 130, a second guide rail 140, and a third guide rail 150. The first guide rail 130 extends along a first direction, the second guide rail 140 extends along a second direction, and the third guide rail 150 extends along a third direction. The third guide rail 150 is connected to the base 80, and the first guide rail 130 is slidably connected to the third guide rail 150; the second guide rail 140 is slidably connected to the first guide rail 130, and the housing 10 is slidably connected to the second guide rail 140.

[0160] The housing 10 can slide along the second guide rail 140 in a second direction to change the position of the drive unit 22 in the second direction. The second guide rail 140 can slide along the first guide rail 130 in a first direction to move the housing 10 in the first direction, thereby changing the position of the drive unit 22 in the first direction. The first guide rail 130 can slide along the third guide rail 150 in a third direction to move the second guide rail 140 and the housing 10 in the third direction, thereby changing the position of the drive unit 22 in the third direction. The positions of the drive unit 22 in the first, second, and third directions can all be adjusted, making the pedal detection device 1000 suitable for detecting more different types of vehicles.

[0161] Alternatively, the position adjustment mechanism 100 may also include only one or two of the first guide rail 130, the second guide rail 140, and the third guide rail 150. For example, the position adjustment mechanism 100 may include only the first guide rail 130, or only the second guide rail 140, or only the third guide rail 150, or include both the first guide rail 130 and the second guide rail 140, or include both the first guide rail 130 and the third guide rail 150, or include both the second guide rail 140 and the third guide rail 150.

[0162] For example, the position adjustment mechanism 100 may further include a second drive member 160, a third drive member 170, and a fourth drive member 180. The second drive member 160 is used to drive the second guide rail 140 to slide on the first guide rail 130, the third drive member 170 is used to drive the housing 10 to slide on the second guide rail 140, and the fourth drive member 180 is used to drive the first guide rail 130 to slide on the third guide rail 150, which can increase the automation level of the pedal detection device 1000.

[0163] In other embodiments, the position adjustment mechanism may include a slide groove. For example, a guide slide is provided on the base, and a slide groove is provided on the guide slide. A slider is provided on the bottom of the housing, and the slider is slidably connected to the slide groove. The slider can slide along the slide groove to move the housing, thereby changing the position of the drive unit. The number and extension direction of the guide slide can refer to the number and extension direction of the guide rails described above.

[0164] Please see Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a flowchart illustrating a control method provided in an embodiment of this application. This control method is applied in the field of vehicle technology, such as the control method for a pedal detection device installed in a vehicle.

[0165] Optionally, this control method is applied to a vehicle pedal detection device, which includes a housing and a first drive member. The first drive member includes a body portion and a drive portion. At least a portion of the body portion is located inside the housing, and at least a portion of the drive portion is located outside the housing; wherein the body portion is connected to the housing, and the drive portion is connected to the body portion. Optionally, the pedal detection device can be specifically described above. Figures 1 to 7 The schematic diagram of the pedal detection device shown is not repeated in this embodiment.

[0166] Further optionally, the pedal detection device used in this control method also includes a power supply, wherein the power supply is electrically connected to the first drive element to supply power to the first drive element.

[0167] Specifically, the control method includes, but is not limited to, the following steps: S801: The control device acquires the first information.

[0168] S802: The control device generates a first control signal based on the first information.

[0169] It is understood that the control device in the embodiments of this application may be a device equipped with a processor / chip that can execute computer execution instructions, or it may be a processor / chip that can execute computer execution instructions. Optionally, the control device may be an electronic device, or it may be a processor / chip within an electronic device. Optionally, the control device may specifically be a computing device in a pedal detection device, or it may be a software tool and / or hardware module in a computing device that can be used for drive control. Exemplarily, the control device may be a controller in a pedal detection device, used to execute the control method in the embodiments of this application, which can meet the needs of pedal detection in different scenarios.

[0170] The first information includes vehicle information and / or test information for testing the vehicle. The first control signal is used to control the movement of the drive unit so that the drive unit drives the vehicle's pedals.

[0171] Optionally, vehicle information may include, but is not limited to, vehicle speed, acceleration, and other information.

[0172] Alternatively, the vehicle information can be obtained from the vehicle itself or from a host computer. After the host computer collects the vehicle information, it transmits it to the control device.

[0173] Optionally, the test information for testing the vehicle may include, but is not limited to, the number of times the pedal needs to be moved, the distance the first drive component moves, and other information.

[0174] Alternatively, the test information may be determined by test software in the host computer.

[0175] Optionally, the control device includes a communication interface conforming to the recommended standard (RS)-485, based on which first information is obtained.

[0176] Understandably, the control device determines, based on first information, that the vehicle's pedal needs to be moved to detect the vehicle's pedal and then generates a first control signal. For example, the first information includes the vehicle's speed, and if the speed is greater than a first threshold, the control device determines, based on the vehicle speed, that the vehicle's brake pedal needs to be moved to reduce the vehicle's speed. Based on this, the control device generates a first control signal based on the first information and sends the first control signal to a first drive unit to control the movement of the drive unit, thereby driving the vehicle's brake pedal to reduce the vehicle's speed below the first threshold.

[0177] For example, the first information includes the number of times the pedal is expected to move. When the number of times the pedal is expected to move is greater than 0, the control device determines that the vehicle's pedal needs to be moved. Based on this, the control device generates a first control signal based on the first information and sends the first control signal to a first drive member to control the movement of the drive unit, thereby driving the vehicle's brake pedal to move until the number of times the pedal is expected to move drops to 0.

[0178] For example, the first information includes the vehicle's power-on / off signal. When the vehicle's power-on / off signal is 0, the control device determines that the vehicle's pedal needs to be moved. Based on this, the control device generates a first control signal based on the first information and sends the first control signal to a first drive member to control the movement of the drive unit, thereby driving the vehicle's brake pedal until the power-on / off signal is 1.

[0179] In this embodiment, the control device can generate a first control signal to control the movement of the first driving component using the first information, and then use the first control signal to control the driving part in the first driving component to drive the vehicle's pedal movement. Since the first information can be information provided by the vehicle or information input by the user, the movement of the first driving component can be controlled based on information from different sources, thereby improving the efficiency of testing the vehicle's pedals.

[0180] In some possible embodiments, step S802 described above can be implemented in ways including but not limited to the following: Based on the first information, the motion state of the pedal detection device is determined.

[0181] The first control signal is determined based on the motion state of the pedal detection device.

[0182] Understandably, the motion state is a range used to indicate the distance the pedal travels when the drive unit moves the vehicle. The smaller the distance between this range and 0, the smaller the distance the pedal travels. The larger the distance between the range and 0, the larger the distance the pedal travels.

[0183] The control device determines the required distance the vehicle's pedal needs to move based on first information, thereby defining a range of pedal movement distances and ultimately determining the motion state of the pedal detection device. For example, if the vehicle speed is greater than a first threshold, or if the test information includes emergency braking of the test vehicle, the control device determines that the required distance the vehicle's pedal needs to move is relatively large. In this case, the range corresponding to the motion state determined by the control device is significantly closer to zero. Conversely, if the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the first threshold, or if the test information includes slow braking of the test vehicle, the control device determines that the required distance the vehicle's pedal needs to move is relatively small. In this case, the range corresponding to the motion state determined by the control device is significantly closer to zero.

[0184] Optionally, the motion state of the pedal detection device includes a first motion state and a second motion state. The first interval corresponding to the first motion state and the second interval corresponding to the second motion state are different. The control device determines whether the pedal detection device is in the first motion state or the second motion state based on the first information.

[0185] When the pedal detection device is in the first motion state, the control device controls the drive unit to move a first distance, so that the distance that the drive unit drives the vehicle's pedal to move is within the first range.

[0186] When the pedal detection device is in the second motion state, the control device controls the drive unit to move a second distance so that the distance by which the drive unit drives the vehicle's pedal to move is within the second range.

[0187] When the first and second intervals do not overlap, the control device controls the drive unit to move different distances (the first distance and the second distance are different), so that the distance the drive unit moves the vehicle's pedal falls within either the first or second interval. For example, the first interval is [1cm, 2cm], the second interval is [3cm, 4cm], and the contact surface distance between the drive unit and the pedal in the pedal detection device is 10cm. When the pedal detection device is in the first motion state, the control device needs to control the drive unit to move a first distance so that the distance the drive unit moves the pedal falls within the first interval, and the first distance the drive unit moves can be between 11cm and 12cm. When the pedal detection device is in the second motion state, the control device needs to control the drive unit to move a second distance so that the distance the drive unit moves the pedal falls within the second interval, and the second distance the drive unit moves can be between 13cm and 14cm.

[0188] In this embodiment, the control device controls the distance of the drive unit's movement based on the first control signal determined by the motion state of the pedal detection device, and uses this distance to ensure that the distance the drive unit moves the pedal is within the range corresponding to the motion state, thereby achieving precise control over the distance of the vehicle's pedal movement, meeting the needs of pedal detection in different test scenarios, and improving the versatility of pedal detection.

[0189] It should be understood that the movement state of the pedal detection device is not limited to the first and second movement states. Specifically, the movement state of the pedal detection device may also include a third movement state, where the pedal movement distance corresponding to the third movement state is the maximum distance. When the pedal detection device is in the third movement state, the first control signal controls the drive unit to move a third distance, so that the drive unit drives the vehicle's pedal to move a maximum distance. For example, the maximum pedal movement distance is 6cm. When the pedal detection device is in the third movement state, the first control signal controls the drive unit to move a third distance, so that the drive unit drives the vehicle's pedal to move a distance of 6cm. When the pedal is a brake pedal, this ensures that the vehicle's braking force is at its maximum.

[0190] Optionally, the first distance, the second distance, and the third distance are not fixed values ​​and can be adjusted according to the installation position of different pedal detection devices in the vehicle. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0191] In one possible implementation scenario, after the control device controls the drive unit to move based on the first control signal, it determines whether the vehicle's pedal has moved to the interval corresponding to the movement state of the pedal detection device based on the vehicle's vehicle information. If the distance of pedal movement reflected in the vehicle information does not match the interval corresponding to the movement state of the pedal detection device, the control device continues to output the first control signal to the drive unit to control the drive unit to continue moving until the vehicle information matches the pedal movement state corresponding to the interval. For example, if the vehicle information includes acceleration, a reference distance for the vehicle's pedal movement is derived based on the current vehicle acceleration. If the reference distance is not within the interval corresponding to the movement state of the pedal detection device, the control device continues to output the first control signal to the drive unit to control the drive unit to continue moving.

[0192] Please see Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is a flowchart illustrating a control method provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0193] After the host computer collects the vehicle information and the test information generated by the test software to test the vehicle, it integrates them to obtain the first information and transmits the first information to the communication interface of the control device. Based on the first information, the control device generates the first control signal and transmits the first control signal to the input / output module in the control device. The input / output module then transmits the first control signal to the drive unit of the pedal detection device, thereby controlling the movement of the drive unit and driving the movement of the vehicle's pedal to realize the detection and testing of the vehicle's pedal.
