[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0043] In view of the problem that multiple operation buttons are provided on the smart seat, occupying the use space of the smart seat, resulting in a poor use experience of the smart seat, and multiple operation buttons are distributed in different positions, resulting in inconvenient operation, the embodiment of the utility model independently arranges the control box outside the smart seat, which can simplify the structure of the smart seat, free up the use space of the smart seat, and improve the use comfort of the smart seat. In addition, multiple function controls on the smart seat can be realized through the control box, which is convenient to operate.

[0044] Combine the following Figures 1 to 5 , describing an embodiment of the utility model.

[0045] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, on the one hand, as Figures 1 to 3As shown, a control box is provided. The control box is applied to a smart seat and is independently arranged outside the smart seat. The control box mainly includes: a box body 1, an operation module 2 and a control module 3. The operation module 2 is arranged in the box body 1 and is used to send operation instructions. The control module 3 is arranged in the box body 1 and is electrically connected to the operation module 2, and is used to receive and process the operation instructions and send the processed operation instructions to the function module 11 of the smart seat to control the corresponding function module 11 to perform corresponding operations.

[0046] The control box provided in the embodiment of the utility model is independently arranged outside the smart seat, and the operation module 2 on the control box can control at least some functions on the smart seat, thereby reducing the setting of the operation module 2 such as the operation button on the smart seat, thereby simplifying the structure of the smart seat, freeing up the use space of the smart seat, improving the use comfort of the smart seat, and facilitating the processing, manufacturing and assembly of the smart seat. In addition, the use and installation of the control box are not restricted by the smart seat, and multiple functions on the smart seat can be controlled through the control box, which is easy to operate and improves flexibility.

[0047] Specifically, the box body 1 can be formed by combining two half shells to form a half-open structure. The two half shells are detachably fixedly connected to each other and have a cavity inside. The operating module 2 is arranged on the outer surface of one of the half shells, and the control module 3 is arranged in the cavity.

[0048] It should be noted that the embodiment of the utility model does not limit the operating module 2. As long as the operating module 2 can send an operating instruction, it will be sufficient.

[0049] In addition, the control module 3 can select any existing controller as needed. As long as the control module 3 can receive and process the operation instructions and send the processed operation instructions to the functional module 11 of the smart seat. For example, the control module 3 can select an existing controller such as a microcontroller unit (MCU), a central processing unit, an electronic controller unit (ECU), etc. Of course, other conventional controllers can also be selected as needed. This is not limited in the embodiment of the utility model.

[0050] In one embodiment, the operation module 2 includes at least one of a physical key 201, a touch key and a voice recognition module, which is flexible to use and widely applicable. The specific settings can be selected according to actual needs.

[0051] For example, Figure 4 As shown, the operation module 2 can select multiple physical keys 201, such as physical buttons, physical switches, etc. By pressing the physical keys 201, the function module 11 for controlling the smart seat can be operated accordingly. Compared with touch keys, the physical keys 201 can intuitively feedback the operation results, which is conducive to improving the accuracy and efficiency of the operation.

[0052] In addition, the operation module 2 can also select multiple touch buttons, which has high variability and customizability, and a simple operation interface, which is conducive to promotion and use.

[0053] In addition, the operation module 2 can also select a voice recognition module. The voice recognition module can be set alone or used in combination with the physical key 201 or the touch key. By pressing the voice recognition module, voice input instructions can be made, which is flexible and convenient to use.

[0054] In one embodiment, the combination of multiple operation modules 2 can also perform corresponding operations on other functional modules 11 of the smart seat. For example, the operation module 2 is provided with two physical buttons, one of which is used to control the start and stop heating module of the smart seat, and the other is used to control the start and stop ventilation module of the smart seat. Pressing the two physical buttons at the same time can control the start and stop playback module of the smart seat, thereby reducing the number of operation modules 2 and simplifying the structure of the box body 1.

[0055] In one embodiment, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the box body 1 is provided with a data interface 4. The data interface 4 is used to be electrically connected to the communication interface 6 of the smart seat. The control module 3 is used to send the processed operation instructions to the smart seat through the data interface 4. The data interface 4 can complete the data transmission and interaction between the control module 3 and the smart seat, and is convenient for transmitting the operation instructions processed by the control module 3 to the smart seat, so as to control the functional module 11 of the smart seat to perform corresponding operations. The data interface 4 can be a USB interface.

[0056] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the data interface 4 on the box body 1 is electrically connected to the communication interface 6 of the smart seat through the data line 5, and the signal transmission is more stable and has a strong anti-interference ability. In addition, while transmitting data through the data line 5, the functional module 11 of the smart seat can also be powered, thereby eliminating the need to set a power supply in the smart seat and further simplifying the structure of the smart seat.

[0057] In some other embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the data interface 4 can also be electrically connected to the communication interface 6 of the smart seat through a wireless signal. The wireless signal is not limited by the layout space, which can improve the flexibility of the control box.

[0058] In one embodiment, the control box further comprises a power module 7, which is electrically connected to the control module 3. It should be noted that the power module 7 of the embodiment of the utility model can be selectively arranged in the box body 1 as required, or arranged outside the box body 1 as an external power source.

[0059] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the power module 7 is selectively arranged in the box body 1 as a built-in power source so that the control box can be used at any time. The power module 7 can use a dry cell, which is convenient to use and easy to disassemble. The power module 7 can also use a rechargeable battery, which can be reused and is more environmentally friendly.

[0060] Furthermore, in one embodiment, if Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, when the power module 7 is selected to be arranged in the box body 1 and a rechargeable battery is used, the box body 1 is also provided with a power interface 8. The power interface 8 is used to connect an external power source to charge the power module 7, so that the power module 7 can be reused and the use cost can be reduced.

[0061] Specifically, the power interface 8 and the data interface 4 can be installed on the side walls of the box body 1 on opposite sides for easy use. Of course, the power interface 8 and the data interface 4 can also be installed at other positions of the box body 1 as needed, and the embodiment of the utility model does not impose too many restrictions on this.

[0062] In one embodiment, the power module 7 is arranged outside the box body 1. The power module 7 is an external power source, which can simplify the structure of the box body 1. The external power source can be a mobile power source. When the smart seat is used in a car, the power module 7 can also use the car power supply system. The control box can be powered by only electrically connecting the power interface 8 of the box body 1 to the car power supply system.

[0063] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the control box also includes a status display module 9. The status display module 9 is electrically connected to the control module 3 and is used to display the working status of each functional module 11 and each interface module 12 on the smart seat. The status display module 9 is convenient for real-time display of the working status of each functional module 11 and each interface module 12 on the smart seat, so that the user can intuitively observe the opening and closing of each functional module 11 and the installation status of each interface module 12. The working status may include start, stop, fault, installed in place, not installed in place, etc.

[0064] According to the embodiment of the utility model, the status display module 9 can have various forms. And the status display module 9 can also be used in conjunction with the operating module 2 to improve the user experience.

[0065] Form 1:

[0066] In one embodiment, Figure 4As shown, the operation module 2 is a physical button 201. The status display module 9 includes a plurality of status display lights 901 arranged on the box body 1. Each status display light 901 corresponds to displaying the working status of a functional module 11 or an interface module 12. The physical button 201 and the status display light 901 cooperate with each other, and the functional module 11 of the smart seat is controlled by the physical button 201 to perform corresponding actions, and the working status of each functional module 11 and each interface module 12 is displayed by the status display light 901, which can intuitively display the working status of the functional module 11 and the interface module 12, and the use cost is low.

[0067] Specifically, the status display light 901 can be selected to be on or off to correspond to the working status of the display function module 11 or the interface module 12. Take the case where the function module 11 of the smart seat is a heating module. The heating module heats the smart seat through a resistance wire. Press the corresponding physical button 201, and the control module 3 controls the resistance wire to be energized and generate heat. After the resistance wire is energized, a feedback signal is sent to the control module 3, and the control module 3 controls the status display light 901 to light up to remind the user that the heating function of the smart seat has been turned on. After the resistance wire is powered off, the status display light 901 goes out to remind the user that the heating function of the smart seat has been turned off.

[0068] In addition, the status display light 901 can also select different colors to display the working status of the functional module 11 or the interface module 12. Take the interface module 12 of the smart seat as an example, which is a seat belt buckle. When the seat belt buckle is not locked, the status display light 901 is red. After the seat belt buckle is locked, the status display light 901 switches to green to remind the user whether to lock the seat belt buckle.

[0069] Form 2:

[0070] In one embodiment, the operation module 2 is a touch button, and a display screen is provided on the box body 1. The status display module 9 includes a plurality of status display lights 901 provided on the display screen, and the status display lights 901 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the functional modules 11 and the interface modules 12 on the smart seat. A plurality of status display lights 901 are provided on the box body 1, and the status display lights 901 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the functional modules 11 and the interface modules 12 on the smart seat, so that the user can quickly know the working status of each functional module 11 and each interface module 12. The status display lights 901 are provided on the display screen of the box body 1, so that the working status of the functional modules 11 and the interface modules 12 can be clearly displayed.

[0071] Form three:

[0072] In one embodiment, the operation module 2 is a touch button, and a display screen is provided on the box body 1. The status display light 901 on the display screen corresponds to the touch button one by one and is integrated. When the user presses the touch button, the touch button lights up, which not only displays intuitively but also saves the occupied area of ​​the display screen.

[0073] Specifically, the display interface of the display screen designs the touch buttons as corresponding patterns according to the specific functions of the functional module 11 of the smart seat, so as to facilitate the user to understand and use the touch buttons. For example, when the functional module 11 of the smart seat is a ventilation module, the touch buttons for controlling the ventilation module are designed as fan patterns. By pressing the corresponding fan pattern, the control module 3 controls the fan to turn on, realizing the ventilation of the smart seat, and at the same time, the touch buttons light up or switch colors to indicate that the ventilation module is turned on.

[0074] In addition, for the interface module 12 that does not need to be started or stopped by the operation module 2, the display screen can be provided with a status display light 901 to display the working status of the corresponding interface module 12. For example, when the interface module 12 is a seat belt buckle, if the seat belt buckle is locked, the status display light 901 is on. If the seat belt buckle is unlocked, the status display light 901 is off. The status display light 901 can be designed as a seat belt buckle pattern or other conventional shapes.

[0075] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, on the other hand, a smart seat is also provided, which mainly includes: a seat body 10 and a control box. The seat body 10 is provided with at least one functional module 11. The control box is independently arranged outside the seat body 10, and the control module 3 is electrically connected to the functional module 11 to control the corresponding functional module 11 to perform corresponding operations.

[0076] The smart seat provided by the embodiment of the utility model can control at least some functions of the smart seat by using the operating module 2 on the control box, thereby reducing the setting of the operating module 2 such as the operating button on the smart seat, thereby simplifying the structure of the smart seat, freeing up the use space of the smart seat, improving the use comfort of the smart seat, and facilitating the processing, manufacturing and assembly of the smart seat. In addition, the use and installation of the control box are not limited by the seat body 10, and multiple functions of the smart seat can be controlled by the control box, which is easy to operate and improves flexibility.

[0077] In one embodiment, the functional module 11 includes at least one of a ventilation module, a heating module, a playing module, and an angle adjustment module. Through the multiple functional modules 11, ventilation function, heating function, music playing function, and seat angle adjustment function can be provided respectively, so as to realize the multifunctionality of the smart seat, meet the various needs of users, and improve the comfort of use.

[0078] It is understandable that the function module 11 can also be configured with other conventional functions as required.

[0079] Specifically, the control module 3 is electrically connected to the communication interface 6 of the smart seat through the data interface 4. The function module 11 is used to receive the operation instruction processed by the control module 3 so that the corresponding function module 11 performs the corresponding operation. It can be understood that how the function module 11 receives the electrical signal of the control module 3 belongs to the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0080] Taking the functional module 11 as a heating module as an example, the user presses the heating button, and the heating button sends a heating instruction to the control module 3. The control module 3 receives and processes the heating instruction and sends it to the heating module, triggering the resistor to energize and heat up to realize the heating function.

[0081] In one embodiment, the seat body 10 may be provided with operation buttons corresponding to some functional modules 11. The seat body 10 may retain basic operation buttons, such as front and rear angle adjustment buttons, and the user may directly manually operate the operation buttons on the seat body 10 to control the corresponding functional modules 11. Furthermore, the operation buttons may also be electrically connected to the control module 3. The combination of the operation buttons may also control other functional modules 11 to perform corresponding operations.

[0082] In some other embodiments, the seat body 10 may not be provided with operation buttons corresponding to the functional module 11, and all operation buttons are provided on the control box, which can further simplify the structure of the seat body 10, facilitate the use of operation buttons, and facilitate the processing, manufacturing and assembly of the seat body 10.

[0083] It should be noted that the smart seat provided in the embodiment of the utility model can be used alone or installed on other devices for use.

[0084] In one embodiment, the smart seat is a car safety seat, and the smart seat is provided with an interface module 12, which includes at least a seat belt buckle and a standard interface. Since the control box and the seat body 10 are independent of the car, the smart seat provided by the embodiment of the utility model is not limited by the car model, can be used on different types of cars, and has a wide range of applications. The control box can also be linked with the car control system, so that the user can indirectly control the smart seat through the car control system.

[0085] Exemplarily, the standard interface is a child seat fixing device (ISOFIX, International Standards Organization FIX), which is used to be fixedly connected to the car seat. The user can control at least part of the functional modules 11 on the car safety seat through the control box to perform corresponding operations, and it is also convenient for the user to check the working status of each functional module 11 and each interface module 12 of the car safety seat at any time. It is particularly suitable for the scenario where the user is in the driving position and the car safety seat is installed in the back row of the car. Compared with the traditional car safety seat, the embodiment of the utility model can also prevent children from accidentally touching the operation module 2, thereby improving safety.

[0086] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the smart seat further includes a detection unit 13. The detection unit 13 is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the functional module 11 and / or the interface module 12, and is used to detect the working state of the functional module 11 and / or the interface module 12, and transmit the detection signal to the control module 3.

[0087] Taking the seat belt buckle as an example, the detection unit 13 can connect the circuit after the seat belt buckle is locked, and feed back the detection signal to the control module 3, and the control module 3 controls the corresponding status display light 901 to light up, reminding the user that the seat belt buckle has been locked.
