Detailed Implementation

[0023] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0024] Before describing the solutions of the embodiments of this application, the relevant technologies of the switching device will be described first to help understand the solutions of this application.

[0025] In related technologies, physical switching components mainly adopt a "power + signal" multi-wire connection method. For example, a car window switch panel needs 4 buttons, and its switching components need to be configured with "2 power lines + 4 signal feedback lines" or "2 power lines + 2 CAN / LIN communication lines". However, this hardware connection method will result in the mounting base having to be designed with a dedicated slot according to the number of wiring harnesses, which will lead to high complexity of vehicle wiring, difficulty in after-sales maintenance, and the need to test each wiring harness for troubleshooting.

[0026] Therefore, in order to save on wiring harnesses, some related technologies have adopted a completely wireless switch solution. However, the following problems still exist: they mostly use non-standard communication protocols such as RF433, which have poor compatibility with mobile phones and vehicle systems; they require additional button batteries for power supply, resulting in maintenance costs for battery replacement; their functional support is relatively fixed and limited, and they cannot redefine device control commands.

[0027] Therefore, embodiments of this application provide a vehicle control system and a vehicle to solve at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0028] Specifically, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a vehicle control system provided for the implementation of this application.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle control system 10 includes: a switching device 11, a vehicle controller 12, and an actuator 13.

[0030] The switching device 11 includes a device body, at least one switching component, a communication component, and a power supply port contained within the device body. The power supply port is connected to an external power supply line, which supplies power to the switching component and the communication component. The communication component is connected to the switching component and generates control commands based on the action signals of the switching component. The vehicle controller 12 is connected to the actuator 13. After receiving the control command, the vehicle controller 12 controls the actuator 13 to perform the target action according to the control command.

[0031] It is understood that the embodiments of this application construct a vehicle control system 10, including a switching device 11, a vehicle controller 12, and an actuator 13. The switching device 11 includes a device body, a switching component, a communication component, and a power supply port. The communication component generates control commands based on the action signals of the switching component. The power supply port is connected to an external power supply circuit, and the switching component and communication component of the switching device are powered through the external power supply circuit. Power supply and communication of the switch can be realized through the external power supply circuit, without the need for additional batteries and wiring harnesses, thus saving the maintenance cost of the switching device. At the same time, after the vehicle controller 12 receives the control command, it controls the actuator 13 to perform the target action according to the control command. Through the conversion of action signals and commands, the control of the vehicle can be simplified to a certain extent.

[0032] The structure of the switchgear 11 in this application is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, it includes a device body, at least one switching component, a communication component, and a power supply port contained within the device body.

[0033] The actuator 13 in this embodiment is a component that receives control commands from the vehicle controller 12 and performs specific actions, such as a window motor, sunroof motor, air conditioning compressor, etc.; the target action can be opening the window, opening the sunroof, closing the window, closing the sunroof, etc.

[0034] The external power supply line in this embodiment is a two-wire power supply harness. For example, if a car window switch panel has four switch buttons, related technologies require two power lines and four signal feedback lines, while this embodiment only requires two external power supply lines, thus saving harness costs.

[0035] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the communication component communicates with the target terminal, the target terminal communicates with the vehicle controller 12, the communication component sends control commands to the target terminal, and the target terminal sends control commands to the vehicle controller 12.

[0036] The target terminal can be an in-vehicle terminal or a mobile terminal.

[0037] It is understood that in this embodiment of the application, the communication component communicates with the target terminal, the target terminal communicates with the vehicle controller 12, the communication component sends control commands to the target terminal, and the target terminal sends control commands to the vehicle controller 12 so that the vehicle controller 12 can specifically control the vehicle's actuators.

[0038] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the switch assembly includes an operation panel and at least one switch body, wherein one end of the switch body is connected to the operation panel and the other end of the switch body is connected to a communication component.

[0039] The switch body can be understood as the physical button of the switch; the operation panel is the external interactive interface of the switch component, used to support the switch body.

[0040] It is understood that the switch assembly in this application embodiment includes an operation panel and at least one switch body. One end of the switch body is disposed on the operation panel for user operation, and the other end of the switch body is connected to a communication component to generate control commands based on the user's operation signal of the switch body and send the control commands to the target terminal.

[0041] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the switch assembly further includes at least one indicator light, which is connected to the communication assembly.

[0042] The indicator light can be used to indicate the status of the switch components, typically for use at night when driving, or for users to indicate the working status of the switch components.

[0043] It is understood that the switch assembly in this application embodiment also includes at least one indicator light. The indicator light is connected to the communication assembly, which allows for intuitive observation of the working status of the switch assembly and also provides illumination for the user, preventing the user from not being able to find the switch at night.

[0044] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the communication component includes a circuit board, a switch controller and a communication module included on the circuit board, the switch controller being connected to the communication module and the switch component respectively, and the communication module communicating with the target terminal.

[0045] The communication module includes a wireless communication module and a wired communication module, with a preferred wireless communication module, specifically a Bluetooth module, which can use the Bluetooth GATT (Generic Attribute Profile) protocol, a standardized communication protocol; the switch controller can also be called a microcontroller.

[0046] It is understood that, in the embodiments of this application, the switch controller and the communication module can be integrated on a circuit board, and the signal interaction between the two can be realized through the circuit board lines.

[0047] If a wireless communication module is used, wireless communication can replace signal lines, and the use of standardized communication protocols can improve the compatibility of switching equipment with mobile terminals and vehicle terminals. In addition, compared with wired communication modules, wiring harnesses can be further saved.

[0048] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the vehicle control system 10 of this application embodiment further includes: a power management module contained within the device body, the power management module being connected to a power supply port, a switch controller, and a communication module respectively.

[0049] The power management module is used to regulate and filter the electrical energy input from the external power supply line.

[0050] It is understood that the switching device in this application embodiment also includes a power management module. The power management module is connected to the power supply port, the switch controller and the communication module respectively, and provides suitable voltage and current to the switch controller and the communication module to ensure the stable operation of the switching device and improve the reliability of the switching device.

[0051] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the vehicle control system 10 of this application embodiment further includes: a connector connected to the device body, the connector including a first port and a second port, wherein the first port is connected to an external power supply line and the second port is connected to a power supply port.

[0052] It is understood that the switchgear in this embodiment is also connected to a connector, the first port of which is adapted to the interface specification of the external power supply line, and the second port is matched with the power supply port of the device body. The switchgear can be quickly connected or disconnected from the external power supply line by plugging and unplugging the connector. Since the switchgear in this embodiment is an external power supply line, the connector can be universalized, thereby reducing the mold cost of the switchgear, making the mounting base of the switchgear platform-based, and improving the installation convenience of the switchgear.

[0053] Furthermore, it should be noted that the switching device 11 in this embodiment can also be equipped with a pressure sensor to enhance the effective recognition of action signals, reduce the false touch rate of the switch, and improve the user experience. Specifically, pressure intensity sensing detection can be added to the switch assembly, and the effective pressing time can be calculated in combination with the duration of the switch body being pressed and the pressure magnitude. This can reduce false touches. For example, if the pressing time is less than 50ms and the pressure magnitude changes from heavy pressure to light pressure without conforming to the normal pressing curve, it is considered an invalid operation.

[0054] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the vehicle control system 10 of this application embodiment further includes: a storage module included in the device body, the storage module being connected to a communication component, the storage module storing an instruction table of control instructions and action signals, and the communication component determining the control instruction corresponding to the action signal based on the instruction table.

[0055] The instruction table contains a mapping table of action signals and control commands pre-set by the user.

[0056] It is understood that the switching device 11 in this embodiment of the application also includes a storage module. The storage module stores an instruction table of control instructions and action signals. The communication component determines the control instruction corresponding to the action signal based on the instruction table to ensure the accuracy of the control instruction generation.

[0057] The instruction table in this application embodiment can be generated based on user customization. Users can customize the functions of the switching devices, that is, operating the switching devices can control certain functions of the vehicle. The user's process for customizing the functions of the switching devices is as follows: 1. Users can scan the power switch device via the terminal APP or vehicle APP (based on Bluetooth broadcast beacon, UUID is a custom 128-bit identifier). 2. After entering the configuration interface, select the switch operation mode (e.g., press and hold the button for 5 seconds to trigger function editing). 3. Select the target controlled device from the device list, i.e., the vehicle's actuator (supports automatic discovery of smart home devices or vehicle ECUs (Electronic Control Units) within the local area network). 4. Configure control commands (e.g., map "single click" to "raise window", "double click" to "open sunroof", etc.); 5. After receiving the configuration command from the vehicle system or mobile phone via Bluetooth, the microcontroller parses the current switch device ID, command code, and check code, and saves the new configuration information to the microcontroller's built-in storage. The command code is the command code for controlling the switch, which is generally a custom command defined by the car manufacturer. For example, 01 represents controlling the door lock, and 02 represents controlling the window. The check code is also custom defined by the car manufacturer, and the common check algorithm is CRC32.

[0058] Therefore, users can operate the switching device. When the microcontroller (i.e., the switch controller) detects the switch operation event, it generates a corresponding control command frame based on the current configuration information and sends it to (mobile phone or vehicle terminal) via the Bluetooth GATT service protocol. After receiving the control command frame, the target terminal forwards it to the vehicle controller. The vehicle controller then controls the actuator to perform the target action, such as opening the window or adjusting the sunroof.

[0059] The functional configuration of the switching device in this embodiment can improve the user experience, specifically including: 1. Personalized configuration: It supports up to 16 customizable combinations of functions, and users can redefine functions within minutes via mobile APP or vehicle system; 2. Cross-system compatibility: Supports Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and multiple home entertainment platforms; 3. Plug and play: The device is automatically discovered using the Bluetooth A2DP protocol, and the first pairing time is less than 15 seconds.

[0060] The switching device of this application embodiment is described below through a specific example. The hardware of the switching device of this application embodiment is as follows: Figure 3As shown, the device comprises a universal two-wire power supply port (i.e., power supply port), a power management module, a microcontroller (i.e., controller), a Bluetooth module (i.e., wireless communication module), an operation panel assembly (i.e., operation panel), a switch body, and status indicator lights (i.e., indicator lights). The specific circuit of the switching device is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, this application uses wireless communication technology to design a universal two-wire power supply port, realizing a set of switching equipment that can save wiring harnesses and simplify after-sales service.

[0061] The switching device in this application embodiment includes: 1. Power supply method: Two-wire DC power supply (6~18V) can be used, which can reduce the number of wires by 60%-80%; 2. Communication protocol: It can use Bluetooth 4.0 or higher, ensuring high communication compatibility; 3. The mounting base and universal two-wire power supply port reduce the mold cost of switchgear by more than 40%; 4. Standby power consumption is less than 500μA, requiring no external battery.

[0062] Specifically, the switching device of this application embodiment adopts a standardized two-wire power supply design combined with wireless communication technology, which further saves on wiring harness and mold costs compared to the switching devices of related technologies with 2 power lines + 4 signal feedback lines. A comparison between the switching device implemented in this application and the switching devices of related technologies is provided below. Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 The left side shows a switching device with 2 power lines and 4 signal feedback lines from related technologies, while the right side shows a switching device implemented in this application.

[0063] The switching device of this application embodiment adopts a standardized two-wire power supply design combined with wireless communication technology. Compared with wireless Bluetooth switching devices in related technologies, the switching device of this application embodiment does not require frequent battery replacement, reducing maintenance costs. A comparison between the switching device implemented in this application and switching devices in related technologies is provided below. Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 The left side shows a button battery-powered wireless Bluetooth switching device of related technology, and the right side shows a switching device implemented in this application.

[0064] The switching device of this application embodiment can optimize manufacturing costs, specifically including: 1. Platform-based installation base: The universal base mold can be adapted to more than 80% of switch models, and the mold cost per vehicle model is expected to be reduced from 750,000 yuan to 450,000 yuan; 2. Reduced wiring harness costs: Taking a vehicle model with a production volume of 100,000 units as an example, 8-12 signal wiring harnesses can be reduced per vehicle, saving 35 yuan per vehicle, for a total saving of 3.5 million yuan; 3. Improved production efficiency: Assembly time is expected to be reduced from 120 seconds / piece in the traditional solution to 45 seconds / piece, increasing production line capacity by 62.5%.

[0065] The vehicle control system proposed in this application includes a switching device, a vehicle controller, and an actuator. The switching device includes a device body, a switching component, a communication component, and a power supply port. The communication component generates control commands based on the action signals of the switching component. The power supply port is connected to an external power supply circuit, and the switching component and communication component of the switching device are powered through the external power supply circuit. Power supply and communication of the switch can be realized through the external power supply circuit, without the need for additional batteries and wiring harnesses, thus saving the maintenance cost of the switching device. At the same time, after receiving the control commands, the vehicle controller controls the actuator to perform the target action according to the control commands. Through the conversion of action signals and commands, the control of the vehicle can be simplified to a certain extent.

[0066] Embodiments of this application also provide a vehicle equipped with the vehicle control system described above.

[0067] The vehicle control system and control method of this application are described below through a specific embodiment, which can realize wireless communication and user customization of the switching equipment functions. The hardware of the overall switching equipment operation configuration system in the vehicle control system is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, it includes: a universal two-wire power supply port, a power management module, a microcontroller, a Bluetooth module, an operation panel assembly, a switch body, a mobile phone or vehicle terminal, and status indicator lights, and is divided into a configuration phase and an execution phase.

[0068] The configuration phase process is as follows: 1. Users can scan the switch device via the terminal APP or vehicle APP (based on Bluetooth broadcast beacon, UUID is a custom 128-bit identifier); 2. After entering the configuration interface, select the switch operation mode (e.g., press and hold the button for 5 seconds to trigger function editing). 3. Select the target controlled device from the device list (supports automatic discovery of smart home devices or vehicle ECUs within the local area network). 4. Configure control commands (e.g., map "single click" to "window rise", "double click" to "sunroof open", etc.); 5. After receiving the Bluetooth communication configuration command from the vehicle or mobile phone, the microcontroller parses the current switch device ID, command code, and check code, and saves the new configuration information (i.e., the command table) to the microcontroller's built-in storage.

[0069] The execution phases are as follows: After configuration, the user can operate the main switch. When the microcontroller detects a switch operation event, it generates a corresponding control command frame based on the current configuration information and sends it to the mobile phone or vehicle terminal via the Bluetooth GATT service protocol. After receiving the control command frame, the mobile phone or vehicle terminal forwards or controls the target device function (i.e., the action of the actuator), such as opening the window or sunroof.

[0070] For example, if a user has configured a short press to represent a control command, say a short press to switch driving modes (economy, comfort, sport), then once a short press is made, the switch will transmit data through the microcontroller. A single switch operation event is generally transmitted in TLV format, where T represents the switch operation event, 01 represents a short press, 02 represents a long press for 3 seconds, 03 represents a long press for 8 seconds, L represents the data length, and V represents the event details. Here, the default is 00 for no operation and 01 for an operation.

[0071] When a short press operation event occurs, the microcontroller remembers the configuration information. Upon receiving a 010101 (TLV) signal, it triggers a driving mode switch. It maps the driving mode switch to a control command 050101 (also in TLV format, where T=05 represents driving mode switch, L=01 represents data length, and V=01 represents a mode switch trigger). Then, it sends the control command out via Bluetooth.

[0072] Specifically, the specific means, parameters and advantages of the switching device and the corresponding operation configuration system of the embodiments of this application are shown in Table 1.

[0073] Table 1

[0074] Furthermore, it should be noted that the switching device in this application embodiment also supports OTA (Over-The-Air) function iteration via Bluetooth OTA technology, including: switch firmware upgrade; remote push of switch configuration information (e.g., vehicle manufacturers can push new function configuration information through the cloud); and fault diagnosis data feedback (supports real-time collection of switch operation logs for after-sales analysis).

[0075] The switching device in this application embodiment also has an offline mode function. In scenarios with multiple switching modules, if one of the Bluetooth devices is disconnected, multiple Bluetooth devices can be linked together to execute local control according to the last configuration. At the same time, it can also support multi-switch combination operation (such as pressing two switches at the same time to trigger the away mode).
