Description

[0002] In recent years, awareness of mitigating the global greenhouse effect has increased, particularly in order to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from vehicles. This has led to the widespread development of hydrogen-powered vehicles, such as fuel cell vehicles and hydrogen engine vehicles. These vehicles are generally equipped with hydrogen storage modules filled with hydrogen as a hydrogen supply source. Currently, refillable hydrogen storage modules are commonly used; when hydrogen is insufficient, the vehicle is driven to a hydrogen refueling station for refueling. However, if large commercial vehicles with high hydrogen consumption (such as heavy-duty trucks) use refillable hydrogen storage modules, there is a problem of excessively long refueling times, which affects commercial efficiency.

Therefore, the specific structural and functional details claimed herein are not intended to be limiting, but merely serve as the basis and representative basis for the claims to teach those skilled in the art to use this application in a variety of substantially any suitable detailed structures.

[0041] This specification may use the phrases “in one embodiment,” “in another embodiment,” “in yet another embodiment,” or “in other embodiments,” all of which may refer to one or more of the same or different embodiments according to this application.

[0042] An embodiment of this application discloses a management method for exchangeable hydrogen storage modules. When the data of the hydrogen storage modules at the hydrogen storage module exchange station meets the target conditions, the control center sends a full hydrogen storage module request to the first target autonomous driving vehicle, enabling the first target autonomous driving vehicle to replenish the hydrogen storage module at the hydrogen storage module exchange station. This achieves automatic replenishment of the hydrogen storage module at the exchange station, improving the management efficiency and accuracy of the hydrogen storage modules.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, the management method of this exchangeable hydrogen storage module includes the following steps:

[0044] Step S101: In response to acquiring hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, determine whether the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions.

[0045] In this embodiment, hydrogen is supplied to the vehicle via a hydrogen storage module, which includes one or more hydrogen storage tanks. When the available hydrogen in the hydrogen storage module is insufficient, hydrogen is replenished at a hydrogen storage module exchange station by replacing the hydrogen storage module. Specifically, a hydrogen storage module that is about to be refilled is replaced with a hydrogen storage module that has already been filled with hydrogen. A vehicle can have one hydrogen storage module installed, and this module can be replaced during replacement. Alternatively, multiple hydrogen storage modules can be installed, and one or more modules can be replaced during replacement.

[0046] The system acquires hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, and then determines whether the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, which indicate that the hydrogen storage module needs to be replenished to the hydrogen storage module exchange station.

[0047] Step S102: If the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, a full hydrogen storage module request is sent to the first target autonomous vehicle, so that the first target autonomous vehicle can transport its own full hydrogen storage module to the hydrogen storage module exchange station.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first target autonomous vehicle is equipped with a fully loaded hydrogen storage module and can perform autonomous driving. A communication connection is pre-established with the first target autonomous vehicle, which can be one or multiple vehicles. If the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, it indicates that the hydrogen storage module exchange station needs to replenish the fully loaded hydrogen storage module. A request for a fully loaded hydrogen storage module is sent to the first target autonomous vehicle, after which the first target autonomous vehicle can transport its loaded fully loaded hydrogen storage module to the hydrogen storage module exchange station.

[0049] It is understood that the hydrogen storage module exchange station in this embodiment includes empty hydrogen storage modules and full hydrogen storage modules. An empty hydrogen storage module is a module with insufficient usable hydrogen that has been removed from the vehicle, while a full hydrogen storage module is a module that has been filled with hydrogen. Refueling the vehicle is completed by removing the empty hydrogen storage module from the vehicle and installing a full hydrogen storage module. An empty hydrogen storage module can be made into a full hydrogen storage module by filling it with hydrogen at the hydrogen storage module filling station.

[0050] Furthermore, the executing entity in this application embodiment can be a control center that has a communication connection with the hydrogen storage module exchange station. For example, a wired or wireless communication connection is pre-established between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the control center. One control center can correspond to one hydrogen storage module exchange station, or one control center can correspond to multiple hydrogen storage module exchange stations. Figure 2 As shown, in response to receiving hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, the control center determines whether the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions; if the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, the control center sends a full hydrogen storage module request to the first target autonomous vehicle.

[0051] Alternatively, the implementing entity can also be a hydrogen storage module exchange station, specifically, such as... Figure 3 As shown, in response to receiving hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, the hydrogen storage module exchange station determines whether the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions; if the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, the hydrogen storage module exchange station sends a full hydrogen storage module request to the first target autonomous vehicle.

[0052] The management method for exchangeable hydrogen storage modules in this application embodiment responds to the acquisition of hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, and determines whether the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions. If the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, a full hydrogen storage module request is sent to a first target autonomous driving vehicle, so that the first target autonomous driving vehicle transports its own loaded full hydrogen storage module to the hydrogen storage module exchange station, thereby realizing the automatic replenishment of full hydrogen storage modules to the hydrogen storage module exchange station, improving the management efficiency and accuracy of hydrogen storage modules. Furthermore, since autonomous driving vehicles are used, accidents caused by human factors such as fatigue driving, speeding, and human error can be reduced, thereby improving the safety and intelligence of transporting full hydrogen storage modules.

[0053] In some embodiments of this application, the hydrogen storage module data includes at least one of the following: the number of empty hydrogen storage modules, the growth rate of empty hydrogen storage modules, the number of full hydrogen storage modules, and the decline rate of full hydrogen storage modules. The target condition includes at least one of the following:

[0054] The number of the empty hydrogen storage modules reaches a first quantity;

[0055] The growth rate of the empty hydrogen storage module reaches the first rate;

[0056] The number of fully charged hydrogen storage modules is reduced to the second number;

[0057] The rate of descent of the full hydrogen storage module reaches the second rate.

[0058] In this embodiment, the hydrogen storage module data includes at least one of the following: the number of empty hydrogen storage modules, the growth rate of empty hydrogen storage modules, the number of full hydrogen storage modules, and the decline rate of full hydrogen storage modules. The total number of hydrogen storage modules that can be stored in a hydrogen storage module exchange station is generally fixed. If the number of empty hydrogen storage modules reaches a first quantity or the number of full hydrogen storage modules drops to a second quantity, it indicates that there are too many empty hydrogen storage modules and too few full hydrogen storage modules, requiring timely replenishment. If the growth rate of empty hydrogen storage modules reaches a first rate or the decline rate of full hydrogen storage modules reaches a second rate, it indicates that there are many vehicles in the hydrogen storage module exchange station that need to replace their hydrogen storage modules, requiring timely replenishment to meet the replacement needs of subsequent vehicles. Optionally, the first rate can be the same as or different from the second rate.

[0059] For example, if the initial quantity is 100 and the initial rate is 20 modules / hour, a request to fill hydrogen storage modules can be sent to the first target autonomous vehicle when the number of empty hydrogen storage modules reaches 100; alternatively, a request can be sent when the initial rate is 20 modules / hour; and also, a request can be sent when the number of empty hydrogen storage modules reaches 100 and the initial rate is 20 modules / hour. Similarly, the decision to send a request to fill hydrogen storage modules can also be based on the number of full hydrogen storage modules and / or their rate of decrease.

[0060] In some embodiments of this application, before sending a request for a full hydrogen storage module to the first target autonomous vehicle, such as Figure 4 As shown, it also includes the following steps:

[0061] Step S103: Identify multiple first autonomous vehicles within a preset range corresponding to the hydrogen storage module exchange station, wherein each first autonomous vehicle is equipped with a full hydrogen storage module.

[0062] In this embodiment, before sending a request for a full hydrogen storage module to the first target autonomous vehicle, the first target autonomous vehicle is first identified. Specifically, each first autonomous vehicle is equipped with a positioning module, which can determine each first autonomous vehicle within a preset range corresponding to the hydrogen storage module exchange station. Each first autonomous vehicle is equipped with a full hydrogen storage module. The preset range can be a regular-shaped preset range centered on the hydrogen storage module exchange station, such as a circle or rectangle, or an irregular-shaped preset range including the hydrogen storage module exchange station.

[0063] Step S104: Determine the first target autonomous driving vehicle from each of the first autonomous driving vehicles according to the first strategy.

[0064] A first strategy is pre-set. After determining each first autonomous vehicle, a first target autonomous vehicle is determined from each first autonomous vehicle according to the first strategy.

[0065] In some embodiments of this application, the first target autonomous vehicle is also used to transfer the empty hydrogen storage modules from the hydrogen storage module exchange station to the hydrogen storage module filling station after transporting the loaded full hydrogen storage modules to the hydrogen storage module exchange station, thereby ensuring that the carrying capacity of the first target autonomous vehicle is fully utilized while filling the empty hydrogen storage modules in a timely manner.

[0066] By identifying a first target autonomous vehicle among the first autonomous vehicles within a preset range corresponding to the hydrogen storage module exchange station, the first target autonomous vehicle can promptly transport the loaded full hydrogen storage module to the hydrogen storage module exchange station, thereby achieving more efficient replenishment of the hydrogen storage module exchange station to full hydrogen storage modules.

[0067] In some embodiments of this application, determining the first target autonomous vehicle from each of the first autonomous vehicles according to a first strategy includes at least one of the following:

[0068] Determine the distance between each of the first autonomous vehicles and the hydrogen storage module exchange station, and determine the first target autonomous vehicle based on the first autonomous vehicle corresponding to the minimum distance;

[0069] Determine the driving route between each of the first autonomous vehicles and the hydrogen storage module exchange station, determine the optimal driving route based on the current road conditions and length of each driving route, and determine the first target autonomous vehicle based on the first autonomous vehicle corresponding to the optimal driving route.

[0070] Determine the number of fully loaded hydrogen storage modules carried by each of the first autonomous vehicles, and determine multiple first target autonomous vehicles from each of the first autonomous vehicles according to the target number of fully loaded hydrogen storage modules, wherein the sum of the number of fully loaded hydrogen storage modules carried by each of the first target autonomous vehicles is not less than the target number.

[0071] The remaining driving range of each of the first autonomous vehicles is determined, and at least one of the first autonomous vehicles with a remaining driving range not less than the target mileage is selected as the first target autonomous vehicle. The target mileage is determined by the distance between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the hydrogen storage module filling station.

[0072] In this embodiment, as a determination method, the distance between each first autonomous driving vehicle and the hydrogen storage module exchange station is first determined. The first target autonomous driving vehicle is then determined based on the first autonomous driving vehicle corresponding to the minimum distance. If there is only one first autonomous driving vehicle corresponding to the minimum distance, that vehicle is designated as the first target autonomous driving vehicle. If there are multiple first autonomous driving vehicles corresponding to the minimum distance, all of them can be designated as the first target autonomous driving vehicle, or one of them can be designated as the first target autonomous driving vehicle. Because the first target autonomous driving vehicle corresponds to the minimum distance, it allows the first target autonomous driving vehicle to more efficiently transport fully loaded hydrogen storage modules to the hydrogen storage module exchange station.

[0073] As another method, the travel routes between each first autonomous vehicle and the hydrogen storage module exchange station are first determined. Then, the optimal travel route is determined based on the current road conditions and length of each route. For example, the current road condition score can be determined, and the score and length can be weighted and summed to determine the route score. The route with the highest score is determined as the optimal travel route. Then, the first target autonomous vehicle is determined based on the first autonomous vehicle corresponding to the optimal travel route, thus ensuring that the first target autonomous vehicle reaches the hydrogen storage module exchange station efficiently. Optionally, if there is only one first autonomous vehicle corresponding to the optimal travel route, that first autonomous vehicle is designated as the first target autonomous vehicle. If there are multiple first autonomous vehicles corresponding to the optimal travel route, all of them can be designated as the first target autonomous vehicle, or one of them can be designated as the first target autonomous vehicle.

[0074] As another method of determination, the number of fully loaded hydrogen modules carried by each first autonomous vehicle is first determined. Then, multiple first target autonomous vehicles are selected from among the first autonomous vehicles according to the target number of fully loaded hydrogen modules. The sum of the number of fully loaded hydrogen modules carried by each first target autonomous vehicle is not less than the target number, thereby achieving the delivery of the target number of fully loaded hydrogen modules to the hydrogen module exchange station. For example, if the target number is 30, and there are 4 first autonomous vehicles, where vehicle A carries 15 fully loaded hydrogen modules, vehicle B carries 10, vehicle C carries 5, and vehicle D carries 20, then vehicles A, B, and C can be identified as first target autonomous vehicles; vehicles B and D can also be identified as first target autonomous vehicles; and vehicles A and D can also be identified as first target autonomous vehicles.

[0075] As another method of determination, the remaining driving range of each first autonomous vehicle is first determined. Then, at least one of the first autonomous vehicles with a remaining driving range not less than the target driving range is selected as the first target autonomous vehicle, thereby ensuring that the first target autonomous vehicle has sufficient remaining driving range to transport the hydrogen storage modules to full capacity. The target driving range is determined by the distance between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the hydrogen storage module filling station. For example, the target driving range is not less than twice the distance between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the hydrogen storage module filling station, thus ensuring that the first target autonomous vehicle can travel back and forth between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the hydrogen storage module filling station.

[0076] In some embodiments of this application, after sending a request to the first target autonomous vehicle for a full hydrogen storage module, as follows: Figure 5 As shown, it also includes the following steps:

[0077] Step S105: If the first target autonomous vehicle meets the vehicle abnormality conditions, a new first target autonomous vehicle is determined from other first autonomous vehicles besides the first target autonomous vehicle according to the first strategy, and the request for the full hydrogen storage module is sent to the new first target autonomous vehicle.

[0078] In this embodiment, if the first target autonomous vehicle meets the vehicle abnormality conditions, it means that the first target autonomous vehicle cannot continue to transport the full hydrogen storage module to the hydrogen storage module exchange station. Then, according to the first strategy, a new first target autonomous vehicle is determined from the other first autonomous vehicles besides the first target autonomous vehicle, and a request is made to the full hydrogen storage module of the new first target autonomous vehicle so that the new first target autonomous vehicle can transport the full hydrogen storage module it is carrying to the hydrogen storage module exchange station, thereby ensuring reliable delivery of the full hydrogen storage module to the hydrogen storage module exchange station.

[0079] Step S106: Issue a notification message indicating that the first target autonomous vehicle is malfunctioning.

[0080] The system issues a warning message indicating an anomaly in the primary target autonomous vehicle, allowing the user to promptly inspect it.

[0081] Optionally, the prompt message can take the form of one or more of the following: voice, text, image, video, etc.

[0082] In some embodiments of this application, the abnormal vehicle conditions corresponding to the first target autonomous driving vehicle include at least one of the following:

[0083] The first target autonomous vehicle did not start within the first time period;

[0084] The first target autonomous vehicle did not arrive at the hydrogen storage module exchange station within the second time period, and the second time period was longer than the first time period;

[0085] The full hydrogen storage module request includes a first driving route with the hydrogen storage module exchange station as the destination, the first target autonomous vehicle deviates from the first driving route and does not return to the first driving route within a third time period;

[0086] The first target autonomous vehicle travels at a speed less than a preset speed within a preset distance;

[0087] The first target autonomous vehicle issues a warning message indicating that a specified anomaly exists.

[0088] In this embodiment, if the first target autonomous vehicle fails to start within the first time period, it indicates that the first target autonomous vehicle cannot start normally; if the first target autonomous vehicle fails to reach the hydrogen storage module exchange station within the second time period, it indicates that the first target autonomous vehicle is too slow, has malfunctioned en route, or is experiencing traffic congestion on its route; the request for a full hydrogen storage module includes a first travel route with the hydrogen storage module exchange station as its destination. After receiving the request, the first target autonomous vehicle can determine the first travel route. If the first target autonomous vehicle deviates from the first travel route and fails to return to the first travel route within the third time period, it indicates that the first target autonomous vehicle cannot travel according to the first travel route; if the first target autonomous vehicle's speed within a preset distance is less than a preset speed, it indicates that the first target autonomous vehicle's speed is too slow; if the first target autonomous vehicle issues a warning message indicating a specified anomaly, it indicates that the first target autonomous vehicle cannot continue to drive automatically. For example, specified anomalies include tire blowouts, power system failures, and driving camera malfunctions. In this way, through multiple methods, it is possible to accurately determine whether the first target autonomous vehicle meets the vehicle anomaly conditions.

[0089] This application also proposes a management method for exchangeable hydrogen storage modules. When the hydrogen storage module data at the hydrogen storage module exchange station meets the target conditions, a full hydrogen storage module request is sent to the hydrogen storage module filling station. When the number of full hydrogen storage modules exceeds the threshold, a full hydrogen storage module transport request is sent to a second target autonomous vehicle. This allows the second target autonomous vehicle to load full hydrogen storage modules at the hydrogen storage module filling station and then transport the loaded full hydrogen storage modules to the hydrogen storage module exchange station. This achieves automatic loading of full hydrogen storage modules from the hydrogen storage module filling station and replenishment of full hydrogen storage modules at the hydrogen storage module exchange station, improving the management efficiency and accuracy of hydrogen storage modules.

[0090] like Figure 6 As shown, the management method of this exchangeable hydrogen storage module includes the following steps:

[0091] Step S201: In response to acquiring hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, determine whether the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions.

[0092] In this embodiment, hydrogen is supplied to the vehicle via a hydrogen storage module, which includes one or more hydrogen storage tanks. When the available hydrogen in the hydrogen storage module is insufficient, hydrogen is replenished at a hydrogen storage module exchange station by replacing the hydrogen storage module. Specifically, a hydrogen storage module that is about to be refilled is replaced with a hydrogen storage module that has already been filled with hydrogen. A vehicle can have one hydrogen storage module installed, and this module can be replaced during replacement. Alternatively, multiple hydrogen storage modules can be installed, and one or more modules can be replaced during replacement.

[0093] The system acquires hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, and then determines whether the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, which indicate that the hydrogen storage module needs to be replenished to the hydrogen storage module exchange station.

[0094] Step S202: If the data of the hydrogen storage module meets the target conditions, send a request to the hydrogen storage module filling station to fill the hydrogen storage module.

[0095] In this embodiment, when the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, it indicates that the hydrogen storage module exchange station needs to replenish the hydrogen storage modules to full and sends a full hydrogen storage module request to the hydrogen storage module filling station. After receiving the full hydrogen storage module request, the hydrogen storage module filling station will determine the number of full hydrogen storage modules in the hydrogen storage module filling station.

[0096] Step S203: In response to obtaining the number of full hydrogen storage modules in the hydrogen storage module filling station, determine whether the number of full hydrogen storage modules is greater than the threshold number of full hydrogen storage modules.

[0097] In this embodiment, the threshold for the number of full hydrogen storage modules can be determined based on the maximum number of hydrogen storage modules that the hydrogen storage module filling station can store. Specifically, the threshold for the number of full hydrogen storage modules can be determined by multiplying the maximum number of hydrogen storage modules by a preset ratio (such as 50%). Those skilled in the art can flexibly set the corresponding threshold for the number of full hydrogen storage modules based on different maximum numbers of hydrogen storage modules. For example, if the maximum number of hydrogen storage modules is large, a larger threshold for the number of full hydrogen storage modules can be used; if the maximum number of hydrogen storage modules is small, a smaller threshold for the number of full hydrogen storage modules can be used.

[0098] In addition, the threshold for the number of full hydrogen storage modules can be determined based on the filling efficiency of the hydrogen storage modules. For example, a smaller threshold can be used when the filling efficiency is high, and a larger threshold can be used when the filling efficiency is low. Alternatively, the threshold can be determined based on the maximum number of hydrogen storage modules and the filling efficiency of the full hydrogen storage modules.

[0099] Determine whether the number of fully loaded hydrogen storage modules in the hydrogen storage module filling station is greater than the threshold for the number of fully loaded hydrogen storage modules. If it is greater than the threshold, it means that the hydrogen storage module filling station has enough fully loaded hydrogen storage modules.

[0100] Step S204: If the number of full hydrogen storage modules is greater than the threshold number of full hydrogen storage modules, a full hydrogen storage module delivery request is sent to the second target autonomous vehicle, so that the second target autonomous vehicle, after loading full hydrogen storage modules at the hydrogen storage module filling station, transports the loaded full hydrogen storage modules to the hydrogen storage module exchange station.

[0101] In this embodiment, a second target autonomous driving vehicle transports fully loaded hydrogen storage modules to a hydrogen storage module exchange station, while the first target autonomous driving vehicle can operate autonomously. A communication connection is pre-established between the first and second target autonomous driving vehicles, which can be one or more. If the number of fully loaded hydrogen storage modules exceeds a threshold, it indicates that the hydrogen storage module filling station has sufficient modules. The first target autonomous driving vehicle can then load fully loaded modules from the filling station and transport them to the exchange station. A request for transporting fully loaded hydrogen storage modules is then sent to the second target autonomous driving vehicle, which, after loading fully loaded modules at the filling station, transports them to the exchange station.

[0102] Furthermore, the implementing entity in this application embodiment can be a control center that has communication connections with the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the hydrogen storage module filling station. For example, wired or wireless communication connections are pre-established between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the control center, and between the hydrogen storage module filling station and the control center. One control center can correspond to one hydrogen storage module exchange station and one hydrogen storage module filling station, and one control center can also correspond to multiple hydrogen storage module exchange stations and multiple hydrogen storage module filling stations. Figure 7 As shown, in response to acquiring hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, the control center determines whether the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions. If the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, the control center sends a full hydrogen storage module request to the hydrogen storage module filling station, causing the hydrogen storage module filling station to return the number of full hydrogen storage modules to the control center. In response to acquiring the number of full hydrogen storage modules at the hydrogen storage module filling station, the control center determines whether the number of full hydrogen storage modules is greater than the threshold number of full hydrogen storage modules. If the number of full hydrogen storage modules is greater than the threshold number of full hydrogen storage modules, the control center sends a full hydrogen storage module delivery request to the second target autonomous driving vehicle.

[0103] Alternatively, the implementing entities can also be a control center and a hydrogen storage module filling station, with the control center and the hydrogen storage module filling station working together to manage the exchangeable hydrogen storage modules. Specifically, for example... Figure 8 As shown, in response to acquiring hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, the control center determines whether the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions. If the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, the control center sends a full hydrogen storage module request to the hydrogen storage module filling station, enabling the hydrogen storage module filling station to determine the number of full hydrogen storage modules in the station based on the full hydrogen storage module request. In response to acquiring the number of full hydrogen storage modules at the hydrogen storage module filling station, the hydrogen storage module filling station determines whether the number of full hydrogen storage modules is greater than the full hydrogen storage module quantity threshold. If the number of full hydrogen storage modules is greater than the full hydrogen storage module quantity threshold, the hydrogen storage module filling station sends a full hydrogen storage module delivery request to the second target autonomous driving vehicle.

[0104] The management method for exchangeable hydrogen storage modules in this embodiment, in response to acquiring hydrogen storage module data sent by the hydrogen storage module exchange station, determines whether the hydrogen storage module data meets target conditions; if the hydrogen storage module data meets the target conditions, a full hydrogen storage module request is sent to the hydrogen storage module filling station; in response to acquiring the number of full hydrogen storage modules at the hydrogen storage module filling station, it determines whether the number of full hydrogen storage modules is greater than a full hydrogen storage module quantity threshold; if the number of full hydrogen storage modules is greater than the full hydrogen storage module quantity threshold, a full hydrogen storage module transport request is sent to a second target autonomous driving vehicle, so that the second target autonomous driving vehicle, after loading full hydrogen storage modules at the hydrogen storage module filling station, transports the loaded full hydrogen storage modules to the hydrogen storage module exchange station. This achieves automatic loading of full hydrogen storage modules from the hydrogen storage module filling station and replenishment of full hydrogen storage modules at the hydrogen storage module exchange station, improving the management efficiency and accuracy of hydrogen storage modules. Furthermore, since autonomous driving vehicles are used, accidents caused by human factors such as fatigue driving, speeding, and human error can be reduced, thereby improving the safety and intelligence of transporting full hydrogen storage modules.

[0105] In some embodiments of this application, the hydrogen storage module data includes at least one of the following: the number of empty hydrogen storage modules, the growth rate of empty hydrogen storage modules, the number of full hydrogen storage modules, and the decline rate of full hydrogen storage modules. The target condition includes at least one of the following:

[0106] The number of the empty hydrogen storage modules reaches a first quantity;

[0107] The growth rate of the empty hydrogen storage module reaches the first rate;

[0108] The number of fully charged hydrogen storage modules is reduced to the second number;

[0109] The rate of decrease of the full hydrogen storage module reaches the first rate.

[0110] In this embodiment, the hydrogen storage module data includes at least one of the following: the number of empty hydrogen storage modules, the growth rate of empty hydrogen storage modules, the number of full hydrogen storage modules, and the decline rate of full hydrogen storage modules. The total number of hydrogen storage modules that can be stored in a hydrogen storage module exchange station is generally fixed. If the number of empty hydrogen storage modules reaches a first quantity or the number of full hydrogen storage modules drops to a second quantity, it indicates that there are too many empty hydrogen storage modules and too few full hydrogen storage modules, requiring timely replenishment. If the growth rate of empty hydrogen storage modules reaches a first rate or the decline rate of full hydrogen storage modules reaches a second rate, it indicates that there are many vehicles in the hydrogen storage module exchange station that need to replace their hydrogen storage modules, requiring timely replenishment to meet the replacement needs of subsequent vehicles. Optionally, the first rate can be the same as or different from the second rate.

[0111] In some embodiments of this application, before sending a request to deliver a full hydrogen storage module to the second target autonomous vehicle, such as Figure 9 As shown, it also includes the following steps:

[0112] Step S205: Identify multiple second autonomous vehicles within a preset range corresponding to the hydrogen storage module filling station.

[0113] In this embodiment, before sending a request to the second target autonomous vehicle to fill the hydrogen storage module, the second target autonomous vehicle is first determined. Specifically, the second autonomous vehicle is equipped with a positioning module. The control center can determine each second autonomous vehicle within a preset range corresponding to the hydrogen storage module filling station based on the positioning module. The second autonomous vehicle is used to load the hydrogen storage module. The preset range can be a regular-shaped preset range centered on the hydrogen storage module filling station, such as a circle or rectangle, or it can be an irregular-shaped preset range including the hydrogen storage module filling station.

[0114] Step S206: Determine the second target autonomous driving vehicle from each of the second autonomous driving vehicles according to the second strategy.

[0115] The control center has a pre-set second strategy. After identifying each second autonomous vehicle, the second target autonomous vehicle is determined from among the second autonomous vehicles according to the second strategy.

[0116] In some embodiments of this application, the second target autonomous vehicle is also used to transfer empty hydrogen storage modules from the hydrogen storage module exchange station to the hydrogen storage module filling station after transporting the loaded full hydrogen storage modules to the hydrogen storage module exchange station, thereby ensuring that the carrying capacity of the second target autonomous vehicle is fully utilized while filling the empty hydrogen storage modules in a timely manner.

[0117] By identifying a second target autonomous vehicle among the second autonomous vehicles within a preset range corresponding to the hydrogen storage module filling station, the second target autonomous vehicle can arrive at the hydrogen storage module filling station in a timely manner, thereby achieving more efficient replenishment of the hydrogen storage module exchange station to full hydrogen storage modules.

[0118] In some embodiments of this application, determining the second target autonomous vehicle from each of the second autonomous vehicles according to a second strategy includes at least one of the following:

[0119] Determine the distance between each of the second autonomous vehicles and the hydrogen storage module filling station, and determine the second target autonomous vehicle based on the second autonomous vehicle corresponding to the minimum distance;

[0120] Determine the driving route between each of the second autonomous vehicles and the hydrogen storage module filling station, determine the optimal driving route based on the current road conditions and length of each driving route, and determine the second target autonomous vehicle based on the second autonomous vehicle corresponding to the optimal driving route.

[0121] Determine the number of fully loaded hydrogen storage modules that each second autonomous vehicle can carry, and determine multiple second target autonomous vehicles from each second autonomous vehicle according to the target number of fully loaded hydrogen storage modules, wherein the sum of the number of fully loaded hydrogen storage modules that each second target autonomous vehicle can carry is not less than the target number.

[0122] The remaining driving range of each of the second autonomous vehicles is determined, and at least one of the second autonomous vehicles with a remaining driving range not less than the target mileage is selected as the second target autonomous vehicle. The target mileage is determined by the distance between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the hydrogen storage module filling station.

[0123] In this embodiment, as a determination method, the distance between each second autonomous vehicle and the hydrogen storage module filling station is first determined. The second target autonomous vehicle is then determined based on the second autonomous vehicle corresponding to the minimum distance. If there is only one second autonomous vehicle corresponding to the minimum distance, that vehicle is selected as the second target autonomous vehicle. If there are multiple second autonomous vehicles corresponding to the minimum distance, all of them can be selected as the second target autonomous vehicle, or one of them can be selected as the second target autonomous vehicle. Because the second target autonomous vehicle corresponds to the minimum distance, it allows the second target autonomous vehicle to reach the hydrogen storage module filling station more quickly.

[0124] As another method, the routes between each second autonomous vehicle and the hydrogen storage module filling station are first determined. Then, the optimal route is determined based on the current road conditions and length of each route. For example, the current road condition score can be determined, and a weighted sum of the current road condition score and length can be calculated to determine the route score. The route with the highest score is then determined as the optimal route. Next, the second target autonomous vehicle is determined based on the second autonomous vehicle corresponding to the optimal route, thus ensuring that the second target autonomous vehicle efficiently reaches the hydrogen storage module filling station. Optionally, if there is only one second autonomous vehicle corresponding to the optimal route, that second autonomous vehicle is used as the second target autonomous vehicle. If there are multiple first autonomous vehicles corresponding to the optimal route, all of the multiple second autonomous vehicles can be used as the second target autonomous vehicle, or one of the multiple second autonomous vehicles can be used as the second target autonomous vehicle.

[0125] As another method, the number of fully loaded hydrogen modules that each second autonomous vehicle can carry is first determined. Then, multiple target autonomous vehicles are selected from among the second autonomous vehicles according to the target number of fully loaded hydrogen modules. The sum of the number of fully loaded hydrogen modules that each target autonomous vehicle can carry is not less than the target number, thus enabling the delivery of the target number of fully loaded hydrogen modules to the hydrogen module exchange station. For example, if the target number is 30, and there are 4 second autonomous vehicles, each capable of carrying 10 fully loaded hydrogen modules, then 3 of the 4 second autonomous vehicles can be selected as the target autonomous vehicles.

[0126] As another method of determination, the remaining driving range of each second autonomous vehicle is first determined. Then, at least one of the second autonomous vehicles with a remaining driving range not less than the target mileage is selected as the second target autonomous vehicle. This ensures that the second target autonomous vehicle has sufficient remaining range to transport the hydrogen storage modules to full capacity. The target mileage is determined by the distance between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the hydrogen storage module filling station. For example, the target mileage is not less than twice the distance between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the hydrogen storage module filling station, thus ensuring that the second target autonomous vehicle can travel between the hydrogen storage module exchange station and the hydrogen storage module filling station.

[0127] In some embodiments of this application, after sending a request to the second target autonomous vehicle to deliver a full hydrogen storage module, as follows: Figure 10 As shown, it also includes the following steps:

[0128] Step S207: If the second target autonomous vehicle meets the vehicle abnormality conditions, a new second target autonomous vehicle is determined from other second autonomous vehicles besides the second target autonomous vehicle according to the second strategy, and the full hydrogen storage module delivery request is sent to the new second target autonomous vehicle.

[0129] In this embodiment, if the second target autonomous vehicle meets the vehicle abnormality conditions, it means that the second target autonomous vehicle cannot transport the full hydrogen storage module. Then, according to the second strategy, a new second target autonomous vehicle is determined from the other second autonomous vehicles besides the second target autonomous vehicle, and a request to transport the full hydrogen storage module is sent to the new second target autonomous vehicle. The new second target autonomous vehicle then goes to the hydrogen storage module filling station, loads the full hydrogen storage module, and then goes to the hydrogen storage module exchange station, thereby ensuring reliable transportation of the full hydrogen storage module to the hydrogen storage module exchange station.

[0130] In step S208, a prompt message is issued indicating that the second target autonomous vehicle has an anomaly.

[0131] The system issues a warning message indicating an anomaly in the second target autonomous vehicle, allowing the user to promptly inspect it.

[0132] Optionally, the prompt message can take the form of one or more of the following: voice, text, image, video, etc.

[0133] In some embodiments of this application, the abnormal vehicle conditions corresponding to the second target autonomous driving vehicle include at least one of the following:

[0134] The second target autonomous vehicle did not start within the first time period;

[0135] The second target autonomous vehicle did not arrive at the hydrogen storage module exchange station within the second time period, which was longer than the first time period.

[0136] The request to transport a full hydrogen storage module includes a second driving path from the hydrogen storage module filling station to the hydrogen storage module exchange station. The second target autonomous vehicle deviates from the second driving path and fails to return to the second driving path within a third time period.

[0137] The second target autonomous vehicle travels at a speed less than a preset speed within a preset distance;

[0138] The second target autonomous vehicle issues a warning message indicating that a specified anomaly exists.

[0139] In this embodiment, if the second target autonomous vehicle fails to start within the first time period, it indicates that the second target autonomous vehicle cannot start normally; if the second target autonomous vehicle fails to reach the hydrogen storage module exchange station within the second time period, it indicates that the second target autonomous vehicle is too slow, has malfunctioned en route, or is experiencing traffic congestion on its travel path; the request for a full hydrogen storage module includes a second travel path from the hydrogen storage module filling station to the hydrogen storage module exchange station. After receiving the request for a full hydrogen storage module, the second target autonomous vehicle can determine the second travel path. If the second target autonomous vehicle deviates from the second travel path and fails to return to the second travel path within the third time period, it indicates that the second target autonomous vehicle cannot travel according to the second travel path; if the second target autonomous vehicle's speed within a preset distance is less than a preset speed, it indicates that the second target autonomous vehicle's speed is too slow; if the second target autonomous vehicle issues a warning message indicating a specified anomaly, it indicates that the second target autonomous vehicle cannot continue to drive automatically. For example, specified anomalies include tire blowouts, power system failures, and driving camera failures. In this way, through multiple methods, it is possible to accurately determine whether the second target autonomous vehicle meets the vehicle anomaly conditions.

[0140] In some embodiments of this application, it also includes:

[0141] If the number of full hydrogen storage modules is not greater than the threshold number of full hydrogen storage modules, a hydrogen charging operation is performed to increase the number of full hydrogen storage modules.

[0142] In this embodiment, if the number of full hydrogen storage modules in the hydrogen storage module filling station is not greater than the threshold number of full hydrogen storage modules, it indicates that there are not enough full hydrogen storage modules in the corresponding station. In this case, a hydrogen filling operation is performed to increase the number of full hydrogen storage modules in the hydrogen storage module filling station, thereby ensuring that the hydrogen storage module filling station has a sufficient number of full hydrogen storage modules, and thus ensuring the reliable delivery of full hydrogen storage modules to the hydrogen storage module exchange station.
