DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The present application provides a vehicle door switch system, a vehicle window assembly, a pillar assembly and a vehicle. The vehicle door switch system, the vehicle window assembly, the pillar assembly and the vehicle of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the features of the following embodiments and implementations can be combined with each other.

[0033] The door switch system 1 is provided in the vehicle. The door switch system 1 is used to control the opening or closing of the vehicle door. The door switch system 1 plays an important role in the vehicle, not only providing the basic function of entering and exiting the vehicle, but also affecting the safety and user experience of the vehicle to a certain extent.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, the door switch system 1 includes a switch module 10 and a control module 20. The control module 20 is electrically connected to the switch module 10 and is used in conjunction with the switch module 10 to control the opening or closing of the vehicle door. In some embodiments, the switch module 10 includes a main operation module 11 and a main light source module 12, and the main operation module 11 includes a main pressure sensor 111 and at least two main capacitance sensors 112. The at least two main capacitance sensors 112 include a first main capacitance sensor 112a and a second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first main capacitance sensor 112a is arranged on the outside of the main pressure sensor 111, and the outer edge of the first main capacitance sensor 112a is spaced from the outer edge of the main pressure sensor 111. It can be understood that the first main capacitance sensor 112a can be arranged without a gap with the main pressure sensor 111, and the first main capacitance sensor 112a is located at the outer edge of the main pressure sensor 111. The second main capacitance sensor 112b is arranged outside the first main capacitance sensor 112a, and the outer edge of the second main capacitance sensor 112b is arranged at a distance from the outer edge of the first main capacitance sensor 112a. It can be understood that the second main capacitance sensor 112b can be arranged without a gap with the first main capacitance sensor 112a, and the second main capacitance sensor 112b is located at the outer edge of the first main capacitance sensor 112a. Among them, the main pressure sensor 111 is used to sense the pressure of the outside world and output a corresponding electrical signal. When the main pressure sensor 111 is subjected to a certain pressure (for example, the pressure reaches a range of 3.5N-30N), the main pressure sensor 111 will output a corresponding electrical signal. The first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b are both used to sense the media of different dielectric constants in the outside world and output corresponding electrical signals. The first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b have the same structure, but are arranged in different positions. When the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b sense different media, the output signals represent different contents. The first main capacitance sensor 112a is arranged inside the second main capacitance sensor 112b, and the first main capacitance sensor 112a can be a control capacitance sensor. When the first main capacitance sensor 112a senses a signal of a change in dielectric constant, it indicates that there is a trigger signal at this time. The second main capacitance sensor 112b is arranged outside the first main capacitance sensor 112a, and the second main capacitance sensor 112b can be an anti-trigger main capacitance sensor 123. When the second main capacitance sensor 112b outputs a signal, it indicates that there is an erroneous triggering action at this time. The main light source module 12 is arranged between the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b.The main light source module 12 can serve as the dividing line between the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b. The area located inside the main light source module 12 is the user-operable area, and the area located outside the main light source module 12 is the user false trigger operation area. That is, when the user touches the area inside the main light source module 12, the output signal is a valid trigger signal, and when the user touches the area outside the main light source module 12, the output signal is a false trigger signal.

[0035] The control module 20 is electrically connected to the main operation module 11 and the main light source module 12. The control module 20 is electrically connected to the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the main light source module 12. The control module 20 is used to control the main light source module 12 to light up when the vehicle is in a stopped state and the vehicle door is in an unlocked state, and when the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b have no signal output, so as to display the operation area of ​​the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a. When the vehicle is in a stopped state and the vehicle door is in an unlocked state, the control switch module 10 can effectively control the opening or closing of the door. The operating state of the vehicle and the unlocking state of the door can be determined by the control module 20, which will not be repeated here. Under normal operating conditions, when the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b have no signals, it means that the main pressure sensor 111 is not subjected to pressure, and the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b are not contacted by any medium, that is, the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b are all in an untriggered state, and no false triggering occurs. At this time, the main light source module 12 is controlled to light up to display the operating area of ​​the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a, that is, the main light source module 12 is used to display the operable area located inside it, and at the same time reminds the user to avoid triggering the false triggering area located outside it. Such a setting makes the reminder effect more obvious and is convenient for user operation, especially in emergency situations, or in low-light conditions, or for the elderly. Users can use the main light source module 12 to display the operating area of ​​the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a located on the inner side thereof, and can quickly and easily identify the operating area, thereby improving the convenience of user operation, thereby enhancing the user experience, avoiding misoperation or mis-triggers, and reducing the error rate.

[0036] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is used to output a control signal for controlling the opening of the vehicle door when the received signal indicates that the pressure value of the main pressure sensor 111 is within the pressure threshold range and no false triggering occurs. In this embodiment, the vehicle door is also provided with a door lock, which can be an electric control lock and is electrically connected to the control module 20. When the vehicle is in normal working condition, the main pressure sensor 111 receives a valid pressure signal, and the control module 20 outputs a control signal for controlling the opening of the vehicle door to control the opening of the door lock. With such a configuration, when the vehicle is in normal working condition, the valid pressure signal of the main pressure sensor 111 can be received through the control module 20, thereby effectively controlling the opening of the door lock and improving safety.

[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the switch module 10 further includes an auxiliary operation module 13 and an auxiliary light source module 14. The auxiliary operation module 13 includes an auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132. The at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 include a first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and a second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 131a is arranged outside the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, and the outer edge of the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 131a is spaced from the outer edge of the auxiliary pressure sensor 131. It can be understood that the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a can be arranged without a gap with the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a is located at the outer edge of the auxiliary pressure sensor 131. The second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is arranged outside the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the outer edge of the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is spaced from the outer edge of the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 131a. It can be understood that the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b can be arranged without gap with the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is located at the outer edge of the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a. Among them, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 is used to sense the pressure of the outside world and output the corresponding electrical signal. When the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 is subjected to a certain pressure (for example, the pressure reaches the range of 3.5N-30N), the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 will output the corresponding electrical signal. The first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are both used to sense the media with different dielectric constants in the outside world and output the corresponding electrical signals. The first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b have the same structure, but are arranged in different positions. When the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b sense different media, the output signals represent different contents. The first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a is arranged on the inner side of the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b, and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a can be a control capacitance sensor. When the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a senses a signal of a change in dielectric constant, it indicates that there is a trigger signal at this time. The second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is arranged outside the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b can be an anti-trigger main capacitance sensor 123. When the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b outputs a signal, it indicates that there is an erroneous triggering action at this time. The auxiliary light source module 14 is arranged between the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b.The auxiliary light source module 14 can serve as a dividing line between the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b. The area located inside the auxiliary light source module 14 is the user-operable area, and the area located outside the auxiliary light source module 14 is the user false trigger operation area. That is, when the user touches the area inside the auxiliary light source module 14, the output signal is a valid trigger signal, and when the user touches the area outside the auxiliary light source module 14, the output signal is a false trigger signal.

[0038] The control module 20 is electrically connected to the auxiliary operation module 13 and the auxiliary light source module 14. The control module 20 is electrically connected to the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b and the auxiliary light source module 14 respectively. The control module 20 is used to control the main light source module 12 to light up when the vehicle is in a stopped state and the vehicle door is in an unlocked state, and the main pressure sensor 111, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b have no signal output, so as to display the operation area of ​​the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a. Under normal working conditions, when the main pressure sensor 111, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b have no signal output, it means that the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are not subjected to pressure, and the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are not contacted by any medium, that is, the main The pressure sensor 111, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are all in an untriggered state, and no false triggering occurs. At this time, the main light source module 12 is controlled to light up to display the operation area of ​​the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, that is, the main light source module 12 displays the operable area located inside thereof, and at the same time reminds the user to avoid triggering the false triggering area located outside thereof. Such a setting makes the reminder effect more obvious and convenient for user operation, especially in emergency situations, or in low light conditions, or for the elderly, the user can display the operation area of ​​the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a located inside thereof through the main light source module 12, and can quickly and easily identify the operation area, thereby improving the convenience of user operation, thereby improving the user experience, avoiding false operation or false triggering, and reducing the error rate.

[0039] In the above scheme, the door switch system 1 is provided with a main operation module 11, a main light source module 12, an auxiliary operation module 13 and an auxiliary light source module 14 at the same time. Under normal working conditions, when no pressure signal and dielectric constant change signal are received and no error triggering occurs, it can be displayed by the main light source module 12 alone, or by the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 at the same time. It is also possible that when, for example, the main light source module 12 fails, the auxiliary light source module 14 can be used as a backup light source module to display the corresponding operable area alone. Of course, when both the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 can operate normally, the main light source module 12 is controlled to light up first, and the auxiliary light source module 14 does not need to be lit. This arrangement can effectively ensure the normal operation of the display function of the switch module 10, does not affect the user's use, improves the user's convenience of operation, and can reduce power consumption and extend the service life.

[0040] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the switch module 10 also includes an anti-trigger module 15, and the anti-trigger module 15 includes an anti-trigger pressure sensor. The anti-trigger pressure sensor is used to sense the external false trigger pressure and output a corresponding false trigger electrical signal. When the anti-trigger pressure sensor is subjected to a certain pressure (for example, the pressure reaches the range of 3.5N-30N), the anti-trigger pressure sensor will output a corresponding false trigger electrical signal, which means that the switch module 10 is falsely triggered or misoperated. At this time, the control module 20 may not output any signal. The anti-trigger pressure sensor is arranged between the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13, and is spaced apart from the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13 respectively. False triggering can be avoided by arranging the false trigger pressure sensor between the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13.

[0041] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is electrically connected to the anti-trigger pressure sensor. The control module 20 is used to control the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 to light up to display the operation area of ​​the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the operation area of ​​the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a when the vehicle is in a stopped state and the vehicle door is in an unlocked state, and the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b and the anti-trigger pressure sensor have no signal output. Under normal operating conditions, when the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b and the anti-trigger pressure sensor have no signal output, it means that the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are not subjected to pressure, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are not contacted by any medium, and the anti-trigger pressure sensor is not triggered, that is, the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are all in an untriggered state, and no false triggering action occurs. At this time, the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 can be lit to display multiple operation areas. This setting can provide users with a variety of choices and improve convenience of use.

[0042] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is used to output a control signal for controlling the vehicle door opening when the received signal indicates that the pressure values ​​of the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are within the pressure threshold range and the anti-trigger pressure sensor has no output signal. When the vehicle is in normal working conditions, the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are both subjected to effective pressure signals, and the anti-trigger pressure sensor does not output a false trigger signal, the control module 20 outputs a control signal for controlling the vehicle door opening to control the door lock to open. In this way, when the vehicle is in normal working conditions, the effective pressure signals of the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 can be received by the control module 20, thereby effectively controlling the opening of the door lock and improving safety. The pressure threshold range in this embodiment can be 3.5N-30N, and the range within the pressure threshold range is a better pressure range obtained through a large amount of data. The pressure applied by the user is within the pressure threshold range, which ensures that the effective signal can be triggered normally without much effort and will not damage the pressure sensor. The pressure threshold range can also be adjusted according to actual conditions, and is not limited in this embodiment.

[0043] In some embodiments, when the received signal indicates that the anti-trigger pressure sensor has a signal output, the control module 20 indicates that the switch module 10 is falsely triggered. At this time, the control module 20 does not output any control absorption to avoid misoperation or false triggering, thereby improving safety.

[0044] In some other embodiments, the control module 20 is electrically connected to the anti-trigger pressure sensor. The control module 20 is used to control the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 to light up to display the operation area of ​​the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the operation area of ​​the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a when the vehicle is stopped and the door of the vehicle is unlocked, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b all have signal outputs, and the main pressure sensor 111, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the anti-trigger pressure sensor all have no signal outputs. Under abnormal working conditions such as rain or snow, when the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b all have signal outputs, and the main pressure sensor 111, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, and the anti-trigger pressure sensor all have no signal outputs, it means that the main pressure sensor 111, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, and the anti-trigger pressure sensor are not under pressure, and the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are simultaneously When receiving a signal with a change in dielectric constant, it can be determined that the surfaces of the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are all covered with a medium with the same dielectric constant. For example, when the environment where the switch module 10 is located has a medium such as rain or snow, the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 are controlled by the control module 20 to light up at the same time to display the operation area of ​​the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the operation area of ​​the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a. In this way, by setting up multiple main capacitance sensors and multiple auxiliary capacitance sensors to sense changes in the external environment at the same time, it is not necessary to set up a temperature sensor, which reduces costs and has high detection sensitivity. And by providing multiple operation areas, it is easy or quick to identify the two operation areas under abnormal conditions such as rain or snow, which is more conducive to user operation and improves user experience.

[0045] In other embodiments, the vehicle includes an anti-lock braking system, which is electrically connected to the control module 20. The anti-lock braking system (ABS) is used to prevent brake lock and wheel slip when braking is difficult or on a wet or slippery surface, by preventing the vehicle from sliding dangerously and allowing the driver to maintain steering control when trying to stop. It can also be said that when the vehicle obtains an abnormal signal such as a vehicle collision while driving, the anti-lock braking system will be activated. The control module 20 is used to control the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 to light up after the anti-lock braking system is activated and the vehicle is in a stopped state, so as to display the operating area of ​​the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the operating area of ​​the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a. When the vehicle receives an abnormal signal such as a vehicle collision during driving and the anti-lock braking system is activated, that is, the vehicle is in an abnormal collision condition, when the control module 20 receives the abnormal signal, the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 are both lit up at the same time to display the operation area of ​​the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the operation area of ​​the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a. In this way, by providing multiple operation areas, it is easy or quick to identify the two operation areas in abnormal conditions such as vehicle collision, which is more conducive to user operation, and improves the safety system, thereby enhancing the user experience.

[0046] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is used to output a control signal for controlling the vehicle door to open after the vehicle anti-lock braking system is activated. When the vehicle receives an abnormal signal such as a vehicle collision while driving, the anti-lock braking system will be activated. That is, when the vehicle is in an abnormal collision condition, a door unlocking signal is issued to slightly open the door so that an outsider can open the door through the door gap. This arrangement ensures that the vehicle door can be opened in time when it is in an abnormal collision condition, which is conducive to rescue by outsiders, improves safety, and thus improves user experience.

[0047] In the above scheme, the abnormal working condition is described as rain, snow, collision, etc., but is not limited thereto. In some other embodiments, other abnormal working conditions may also be included, which will not be described in detail here.

[0048] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is used to output a control signal for controlling the vehicle door opening when the received signal indicates that the pressure values ​​of the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are within the pressure threshold range and the anti-trigger pressure sensor has no signal output. When the vehicle is in the above two abnormal conditions, the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are both subjected to effective pressure signals. At this time, the control module 20 outputs a control signal for controlling the vehicle door opening to control the door lock to open. In this way, when the vehicle is in an abnormal condition, the effective pressure signals of the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 can be received through the control module 20, thereby effectively controlling the opening of the door lock and improving safety.

[0049] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is used to not output a control signal for controlling the door opening of the vehicle when the received signal indicates that the pressure of the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 is greater than the maximum value of the pressure threshold range or less than the minimum value of the pressure threshold range, or the anti-trigger pressure sensor has a signal output. When in the above two abnormal working conditions, when the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are both subjected to a pressure greater than the maximum value of the pressure threshold range or less than the minimum value of the pressure threshold range, they are both confirmed to be falsely triggered or intentionally damaged, and are both invalid pressure signals. At this time, the control module 20 does not output a control signal to avoid false triggering and improve safety.

[0050] Since the vehicle is exposed to the external environment for a long time, rain, frost, ice, fog, etc. often appear on the surface of the switch module 10. In order to further optimize the ease of use of the switch module 10, the door switch system 1 of this embodiment also includes a heating module 16. The heating module 16 is used to remove or eliminate rain, frost, ice, fog, etc. appearing on the surface of the switch module 10.

[0051] like Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the switch module 10 includes a main operation module 11 and an auxiliary operation module 13, and the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13 are arranged at intervals. The heating module 16 is arranged on the outside of the main operation module 11 and the outside of the auxiliary operation module 13. The control module 20 is electrically connected to the main operation module 11, the auxiliary operation module 13 and the heating module 16. The control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to work so as to heat the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13. In this way, the door switch system 1 of this embodiment is provided by providing the switch module 10, the heating module 16 and the control module 20. The switch module 10 is provided by providing the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13, and the heating module 16 is arranged on the outside of the main operation module 11 and the outside of the auxiliary operation module 13, and the control module 20 is electrically connected to the main operation module 11, the auxiliary operation module 13 and the heating module 16. The control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to heat the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13. When the switch module 10 is in a cold season or region, the control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to heat the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13 to process or remove rain, frost, ice, or fog that may appear on the surface of the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13, so as to ensure the normal use of the switch module 10, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the door switch, improving the convenience of user operation, and thus improving the user experience.

[0052] exist Figure 4 and Figure 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the main operation module 11 includes at least two main capacitance sensors 112, and the outer edges of the at least two main capacitance sensors 112 are arranged at intervals. The auxiliary operation module 13 includes at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132, and the outer edges of the at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 are arranged at intervals. The heating module 16 is arranged on the outer side of the main capacitance sensor 112 located at the outermost side and the outer side of the auxiliary capacitance sensor 132 located at the outermost side. The heating module 16 is arranged on the outer side of the main capacitance sensor 112 located at the outermost side and the outer side of the auxiliary capacitance sensor 132 located at the outermost side to ensure that when the heating module 16 is working, the rain, frost, ice, snow or fog covering the surface of the at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 can be eliminated, so that the elimination is comprehensive.

[0053] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is electrically connected to at least two main capacitance sensors 112, at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132, and the heating module 16. The control module 20 is used to control the heating module 16 to work so as to heat the at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors when the at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 have signal outputs. When at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 have signal outputs, it means that at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 are simultaneously subjected to signals with dielectric constant changes. It can be determined that at this time, the surfaces of at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 are covered with media with the same dielectric constant. For example, media such as rain, frost, ice, or snow appear in the environment where the switch module 10 is located. The control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to work so as to heat the surfaces of at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors, thereby eliminating the rain, frost, ice, snow, or other media covering the surfaces of the at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors. With such a configuration, when the switch module is in a cold season or region, when both the main capacitance sensor 112 and the auxiliary capacitance sensor 132 have signals, the heating module 16 is controlled to heat the main capacitance sensor 112 and the auxiliary capacitance sensor 132 to process or remove media such as rain, frost, ice or snow that may appear on the surface of the main capacitance sensor 112 and the auxiliary capacitance sensor 132, thereby ensuring the normal use of the switch module 10, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the door switch, improving the convenience of user operation, and thus improving the user experience.

[0054] In some embodiments, when the control module 20 does not receive at least one signal from at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132, it indicates that the surfaces of at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 are not all covered with the medium with the same dielectric constant, and at this time, the control module 20 does not output any heating signal. For at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 in the same external environment, the dielectric constants of the mediums received are consistent, that is, when the signals output by at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 represent the medium with the same dielectric constant, the control module 20 outputs an effective control signal for controlling the operation of the heating module 16, and does not output in other cases.

[0055] For media with different dielectric constants, the control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to have different heating durations and heating temperatures, which can be set according to actual conditions and will not be described in detail here.

[0056] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is used to control the heating module 16 to heat for at least 15 minutes. Such a configuration can ensure that the rain, frost, ice, snow and other media on the surface of at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 can be mostly or completely eliminated without affecting user operation. In some embodiments, the control module 20 is used to control the heating temperature of the heating module 16 to not exceed 70°. For example, the heating temperature of the heating module 16 is controlled at 50°. When the rain, frost, ice or snow can be eliminated, the heating temperature of the heating module 16 is low, which prolongs the service life of the heating module 16, the main capacitance sensor 112 and the auxiliary capacitance sensor 132.

[0057] like Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b are both ring structures, the second main capacitance sensor 112b is arranged outside the first main capacitance sensor 112a, and the outer edge of the second main capacitance sensor 112b is spaced apart from the outer edge of the first main capacitance sensor 112a. The first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b are physical ring structures formed by coils surrounding (for example, one circle around one circle). The second main capacitance sensor 112b is arranged at the bottom of the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the area of ​​the second main capacitance sensor 112b is larger than the area of ​​the first main capacitance sensor 112a, and the first main capacitance sensor 112a is completely covered on the surface of the second main capacitance sensor 112b. Similarly, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are both ring structures, the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is arranged outside the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the outer edge of the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is spaced apart from the outer edge of the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a. The first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are a solid ring structure formed by a coil winding (for example, one circle around one circle). The second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is arranged at the bottom of the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, the area of ​​the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is larger than the area of ​​the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a is completely covered on the surface of the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b. The heating module 16 is arranged on the outside of the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the outside of the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b. The outer edge of the heating module 16 is spaced from the outer edge of the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the outer edge of the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b. The heating module 16 can be arranged at the bottom of the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b, and the area of ​​the heating module 16 is larger than the area of ​​the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the area of ​​the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b.

[0058] The control module 20 is electrically connected to the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b. The control module 20 is used to control the heating module 16 to work when the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b all have signal outputs, so as to heat at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors. When the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b all have signal outputs, it means that the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are simultaneously subjected to signals with a change in dielectric constant, and it can be determined that at this time, the surfaces of the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are all When a medium covered with the same dielectric constant, such as rain, frost, ice, snow, etc., appears in the environment where the switch module 10 is located, the control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to operate so as to heat the surfaces of the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b, thereby eliminating the rain, frost, ice, snow, etc. covering the surfaces of the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b. With such a configuration, when the switch module 10 is in a cold season or region, when the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b all have signals, the heating module 16 is controlled to heat the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b to process or remove media such as rain, frost, ice or snow that may appear on the surfaces of the main capacitance sensor 112 and the auxiliary capacitance sensor 132, to ensure the normal use of the switch module 10, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the door switch, improving the convenience of user operation, and thus improving the user experience.

[0059] Similarly, when the control module 20 is not subjected to at least one signal from the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b, it means that at least the surfaces of the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are not all covered with the medium with the same dielectric constant, and the control module 20 does not output any heating signal at this time. For the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b in the same external environment, the dielectric constant of the medium to which they are subjected is consistent, that is, when the signals output by the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b represent the medium with the same dielectric constant, the control module 20 outputs the effective control signal for controlling the operation of the heating module 16, and does not output in other cases.

[0060] For media with different dielectric constants, the control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to have different heating durations and heating temperatures. The heating time or heating temperature can also be independently set for the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b, and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b, which can be set according to actual conditions and will not be described in detail here.

[0061] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, for Figure 4 In the embodiment shown, the door switch system 1 further includes a main pressure sensor 111, a main light source module 12, an auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and an auxiliary light source module 14. The connection relationship and setting position of the main pressure sensor 111, the main light source module 12, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the auxiliary light source module 14 can be referred to above. Figures 1 to 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the details are not described again.

[0062] like Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the door switch system 1 further includes a temperature sensor 17, which is electrically connected to the control module 20. The temperature sensor 17 is used to obtain the ambient temperature of the current environment of the vehicle and output a corresponding temperature electrical signal. When the temperature electrical signal output by the temperature sensor 17 indicates that the ambient temperature of the current environment is lower than the temperature threshold, the control module 20 controls the heating module to work to heat the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13. Specifically, when the temperature electrical signal output by the temperature sensor 17 indicates that the ambient temperature of the current environment is lower than the temperature threshold, the control module 20 controls the heating module to work to heat at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132. In some other embodiments, the temperature sensor 17 can also be used to detect the external temperature, and the external temperature can be compared with the temperature threshold to see whether it is necessary to control the heating module 16. Such a setting can ensure that when the switch module 10 is in a cold season or region, the heating module 16 can also be used to heat at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132, so as to ensure the normal operation of the switch module 10 and improve the user experience. The temperature threshold in this embodiment can be configured according to the actual cold season or region, and is not limited.

[0063] like Figure 6 As shown, in some other embodiments, the door switch system 1 further includes a fog detection sensor 19, which is electrically connected to the control module 20. The fog detection sensor 19 is used to obtain the fog concentration of the current environment of the vehicle and output a corresponding fog electrical signal. When the fog electrical signal indicates that the fog concentration of the current environment is lower than the concentration threshold, the control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to work to heat the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13. Specifically, when the fog electrical signal indicates that the fog concentration of the current environment is lower than the concentration threshold, the control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to work to heat at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132. Such a setting can ensure that when the switch module 10 is in a season or region with a relatively low fog concentration or a relatively high fog concentration, the heating module 16 can also be used to heat at least two main capacitance sensors 112 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132, so as to ensure the normal operation of the switch module 10 and improve the user experience. The concentration threshold in this embodiment can be configured according to the actual season or region, without limitation.

[0064] In the above scheme, in some embodiments, the main capacitance sensor 112 and the auxiliary capacitance sensor 132 are contact capacitance sensors. In some embodiments, the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are contact capacitance sensors. An electrode grid is provided on the top layer of the contact capacitance sensor, surrounded by a ground layer. When the contact capacitance sensor senses the touch of a human finger, the contact capacitance sensor generates an electrical signal corresponding to the dielectric constant of the medium of the human finger. Therefore, in this embodiment, the maximum size of the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a is set to not exceed the size of the average fingertip. For example, the maximum size of the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a is between 8mm-20mm. The maximum size of the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a should not be set too large or too small. If it is set too large, the contact capacitance sensor is too sensitive, which may cause it to be triggered when it is close to the hand or arm. If the setting is too small, the contact capacitive sensor may not be able to sense human fingers, which may cause insensitive triggering.

[0065] Similarly, in this embodiment, the maximum size of the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is larger than the maximum size of the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a. The maximum size of the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b should not be set too large or too small. If it is set too large, the size or volume of the switch module 10 will be increased, making the structure of the switch module 10 less flexible. If it is set too small, it will overlap with the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a set inside, or the interval distance will be too small. When the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a set inside are touched by a human finger, it is easy to cause false triggering or false operation. For example, the maximum size of the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b is between 25mm and 30mm. Under the condition that the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are not falsely triggered, the size and volume of the switch module 10 can be reduced, making the structure more compact and beautiful.

[0066] Accordingly, in some embodiments, the maximum size of the heating module 16 is greater than the maximum size of the main operation module 11 or greater than the maximum size of the auxiliary operation module 3. Specifically, the maximum size of the heating module 16 is greater than the maximum size of the main capacitance sensor 112 located at the outermost side or greater than the maximum size of the auxiliary capacitance sensor 132 located at the outermost side. For example, the maximum size of the heating module 16 is at least set to be greater than 30 mm, so as to ensure that the heating module 16 can completely cover the area of ​​the second main capacitance sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b, and can heat the entire area. At the same time, the size and volume of the switch module 10 are not increased, making the structure more compact and beautiful.

[0067] In the above scheme, the dimensions between the first main capacitance sensor 112a, the second main capacitance sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b and the heating module 16 can refer to the relative size relationship between them, but the actual setting dimensions can be designed according to actual needs and are not limited in this application.

[0068] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the door switch system 1 includes a circuit board 18, and the circuit board 18 is a flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board is made of a flexible substrate, usually a polyester film or polyimide, etc., and has good flexibility, bendability, and lightness. It has good vibration and impact resistance, can adapt to various bending, folding or curved surface installation applications, and can more effectively utilize the interior space of the vehicle, making the structure more compact and lighter. In some embodiments, the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13 are integrated into the same flexible circuit board. Integrating the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13 into the same circuit board 18 has a high degree of integration, which can make the structural layout compact and the layout space small.

[0069] In some embodiments, the circuit board 18 includes at least a main operating area 181. The main operating module 11 is arranged in the main operating area 181. That is, the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b are integrated in the main operating area 181. In this way, the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b are integrated into one, with high integration and compact structural layout. In some embodiments, the circuit board 18 also includes a main light-transmitting area 182, which is formed between the first main capacitance sensor 112a and the second main capacitance sensor 112b. The main light source module 12 of this embodiment can be a light strip or a plurality of lamp beads arranged at intervals, without limitation. The main light source module 12 is located in the main light-transmitting area 182. The structure of the main light-transmitting area 182 is compatible with the structure of the main light source module 12. In this embodiment, the main light-transmitting area 182 is in a ring structure, and the main light source module 12 is located in the ring structure, forming a ring-shaped light ring effect, which has a good display effect and a simple and beautiful appearance.

[0070] In some other embodiments, the circuit board 18 further includes an auxiliary operation area 183. The auxiliary operation area 183 is spaced apart from the main operation area 181. The auxiliary operation module 13 is provided in the auxiliary operation area 183. That is, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are integrated in the auxiliary operation area 183. In this way, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are integrated into one, with high integration and compact structural layout. In some embodiments, the circuit board 18 further includes an auxiliary light-transmitting area 184, which is formed between the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b. The auxiliary light source module 14 of this embodiment can be a light strip or a plurality of lamp beads spaced apart, without limitation. The auxiliary light source module 14 is located in the auxiliary light-transmitting area 184. The structure of the auxiliary light-transmitting area 184 is compatible with the structure of the auxiliary light source module 14. In this embodiment, the auxiliary light-transmitting area 184 is in a ring structure, and the auxiliary light source module 14 is located in the ring structure, forming a ring-shaped light ring effect, which has a good display effect and a simple and beautiful appearance.

[0071] In other embodiments, the anti-trigger module 15 is disposed between the main operation area 181 and the auxiliary operation area 183, and is spaced from the main operation area 181 and the auxiliary operation area 183. The main operation area 181 and the auxiliary operation area 183 can also be used as a dividing line, which is conducive to guiding the user to operate the operation area located inside the main operation area 181 and the auxiliary operation area 183, preventing the user from misoperating or mis-triggering, avoiding or reducing or lowering the potential risk of mis-triggering or misoperation, and making the operation more convenient and stable.

[0072] exist Figures 1 to 6 In the illustrated embodiment, in some embodiments, the control module 20 may be a vehicle-mounted controller of the vehicle, which is disposed in the vehicle body.
