[0002] With the progress of society, motor vehicles have become more and more common in people's lives. As the main means of transportation, motor vehicles have changed people's traditional travel lifestyle and brought people faster and more convenient life modules. With the large-scale use of motor vehicles, large parking lots are equipped in public places, office buildings, residential areas and other places for parking vehicles. In large parking lots, car owners often get lost in the parking lot when returning to the parking lot due to the large parking space, similar environment and landmarks, and difficult to distinguish directions. They cannot find their vehicles.

[0003] In view of the above problems, there are car finding devices installed in vehicles to facilitate users to find their own vehicles on the market. However, most of the existing car finding devices use GPS to locate the vehicle in an open area, but the GPS positioning method has a high cost.

[0004] Application number: 2011203352574, Patent name: A vehicle-mounted GPS positioning and vehicle-finding device. This technical method cannot improve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model provides a car-finding system to improve the above-mentioned problem.

[0006] The utility model is implemented as follows: a vehicle finding system, the system comprising:

[0007] A mobile terminal, a communication terminal and a body domain controller provided at the vehicle end, wherein the body domain controller is connected to a light controller, and the light controller is used to control the vehicle lights;

[0008] Among them, the mobile terminal communicates remotely with the communication terminal, the communication terminal is connected to the body domain controller through an API interface, and the body domain controller is connected to the lighting controller through a LIN line.

[0009] In some embodiments of the present invention, after the mobile terminal sends a vehicle search request, the communication terminal activates the vehicle search service of the vehicle body domain controller after receiving the vehicle search request, and the vehicle body domain controller controls the flashing of the vehicle lights based on the vehicle search service.

[0010] In some embodiments of the present invention, the system further comprises:

[0011] The horn is connected to the vehicle body domain controller via a hard wire;

[0012] The body domain controller controls the horn to sound based on the vehicle search service.

[0013] In some embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle light controller controls the taillights or controls the taillights and headlights to flash.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present invention, the mobile terminal is a mobile phone, a tablet or an IPAD.

[0015] In some embodiments of the present invention, the communication terminal is a T-BOX.

[0016] After the vehicle owner sends a request to find the vehicle, the vehicle sends a response in the form of sound and light, which is convenient for the vehicle owner to find the vehicle quickly and the cost of finding the vehicle is low. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0017] Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a vehicle-finding system provided in an embodiment of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The specific implementation methods of the present utility model will be further explained in detail below by describing the optimal embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the structure of the vehicle search system provided by the embodiment of the utility model, for the convenience of description, only shows the part related to the embodiment of the utility model, the system comprises:

[0020] A mobile terminal, a communication terminal and a body domain controller are arranged on the vehicle side. The body domain controller is connected with a light controller and a speaker. The light controller is used to control the vehicle lights.

[0021] Among them, the mobile terminal communicates remotely with the communication terminal, the communication terminal is connected to the body domain controller through an API interface, the body domain controller is connected to the light controller through a LIN line, and is connected to the speaker through a hard line.

[0022] In an embodiment of the utility model, after the mobile terminal sends a vehicle search request, the communication terminal activates the vehicle search service of the body domain controller after receiving the vehicle search request sent by the mobile terminal. The body domain controller controls the flashing of the car lights and the honking of the horn based on the car search service. The car light controller and the horn feedback their own status to the body domain controller. The body domain controller encapsulates the status of the car light controller and the horn into an Event event and reports it to the communication terminal. The communication terminal returns the vehicle status to the mobile terminal.

[0023] In an embodiment of the utility model, the mobile terminal is a mobile phone, a tablet or an IPAD. When it is necessary to find a vehicle, the owner sends a vehicle search request through the mobile terminal. After the vehicle search service is activated, the horn is controlled to honk and / or the lights are controlled to flash so that the owner can quickly find his vehicle.

[0024] In addition, API interfaces are set on the vehicle-side communication terminal and the body domain controller, and communication is carried out through the UDP protocol. The communication terminal is T-BOX. The mobile terminal communicates with the body domain controller through the vehicle-side communication terminal. The mobile terminal sends a vehicle search request. After the vehicle search service of the body domain controller is activated, it controls the horn and / or lights to operate, and then feeds back the current status of the vehicle to the mobile terminal.

[0025] In an embodiment of the utility model, the body domain controller sends a LIN signal to the light controller based on the vehicle search service control. The light controller controls the vehicle taillights to flash or controls both the vehicle taillights and headlights to flash based on the LIN signal, thereby attracting the owner's attention through the flashing of the lights.

[0026] The utility model has been described exemplarily. Obviously, the specific implementation of the utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various non-substantial improvements are made by adopting the method concept and technical solution of the utility model, or the concept and technical solution of the utility model are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the utility model.
