[0069] <Vehicle Control Method>

[0070] The present disclosure provides a vehicle control method, which can be implemented by a vehicle.

[0071] FIG1 is a flowchart of a vehicle control method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0072] As shown in FIG1 , the vehicle control method may include steps S1100 to S1400 as follows:

[0073] Step S1100: In response to a first instruction to start the vehicle refrigerator through the cloud service, a first temperature of the passenger compartment of the vehicle is obtained.

[0074] In this embodiment, the first instruction may be triggered by a mobile terminal connected to the vehicle through a cloud service.

[0075] In one embodiment, the mobile terminal may establish a connection with the vehicle via a cellular network, WiFi, Bluetooth, etc. Alternatively, the mobile terminal may log in using the same account as the vehicle, so that a connection is established between the mobile terminal and the vehicle that are logged in with the same account.

[0076] Furthermore, the mobile terminal may provide a first button for triggering the first instruction. In response to a click on the first button, the mobile terminal sends the first instruction to start the vehicle refrigerator via the cloud service to the vehicle. Alternatively, the mobile terminal may send the first instruction to start the vehicle refrigerator via the cloud service upon receiving a voice instruction from the user to start the vehicle refrigerator.

[0077] Furthermore, the mobile terminal can be an electronic product such as a mobile phone, a smart watch, a smart bracelet, smart glasses, headphones, a computer, or a car key.

[0078] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, obtaining a first temperature of a passenger compartment of a vehicle may include: obtaining temperature data collected by a temperature sensor of the vehicle within a first set time; and determining an average value of the temperature of the passenger compartment within the first set time based on the temperature data as the first temperature.

[0079] In this embodiment, the temperature sensor may be disposed in the passenger compartment to detect the temperature of the passenger compartment.

[0080] Furthermore, the first set time period may be a period before obtaining the first temperature of the vehicle's passenger compartment. The duration of the first set time period may be pre-set based on an application scenario or specific needs. For example, the first set time period may be within three minutes before obtaining the first temperature of the vehicle's passenger compartment.

[0081] In this embodiment, the average temperature of the passenger compartment within the first set time is determined based on the temperature data collected by the temperature sensor within the first set time, and used as the first temperature. This can make the obtained first temperature more accurate, and make the subsequent control of the vehicle refrigerator and / or vehicle air conditioner more accurate.

[0082] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, obtaining a first temperature of a passenger compartment of a vehicle may include: obtaining the first temperature based on temperature data most recently collected by a temperature sensor of the vehicle.

[0083] In this embodiment, the first temperature represents the temperature of the passenger compartment that is most recently detected when the vehicle executes step S1100 .

[0084] Step S1200: Determine whether the first temperature is within the operating temperature range of the vehicle refrigerator.

[0085] In this embodiment, the operating temperature range of the vehicle refrigerator may be pre-set according to application scenarios or specific requirements.

[0086] For example, the operating temperature range of a car refrigerator may be [-10°C, 60°C]. Then, when the first temperature is less than -10°C or greater than 60°C, it can be determined that the first temperature is outside the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator. When the first temperature is greater than or equal to -10°C or less than or equal to 60°C, it is determined that the first temperature is within the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator.

[0087] For another example, the operating temperature range of a car refrigerator may be [-10°C, 60°C). Then, when the first temperature is less than -10°C or greater than or equal to 60°C, it can be determined that the first temperature is outside the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator. When the first temperature is greater than or equal to -10°C and less than 60°C, it can be determined that the first temperature is within the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator.

[0088] In step S1300, when the first temperature is outside the operating temperature range, the vehicle air conditioner is controlled to turn on to adjust the temperature of the passenger compartment to within the operating temperature range.

[0089] In this embodiment, during the operation of the vehicle air conditioner, the first temperature of the vehicle's passenger compartment can be continuously obtained according to the set temperature acquisition frequency, and it can be determined whether the first temperature is within the operating temperature range of the vehicle refrigerator. Until the first temperature is within the operating temperature range, step S1400 is executed.

[0090] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the first temperature is outside the operating temperature range, controlling the vehicle air conditioner to turn on may include: when the first temperature is greater than or equal to the upper limit value of the operating temperature range, controlling the vehicle air conditioner to operate in a cooling mode; when the first temperature is less than or equal to the lower limit value of the operating temperature range, controlling the vehicle air conditioner to operate in a heating mode.

[0091] For example, the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator may be [-10°C, 60°C]. Then, the upper limit value of the operating temperature range may be 60°C, and the lower limit value of the operating temperature range may be -10°C.

[0092] When the first temperature is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range, it indicates that the temperature of the passenger compartment is too high and needs to be lowered. Therefore, the vehicle air conditioner may be controlled to operate in cooling mode.

[0093] When the first temperature is less than or equal to the lower limit of the operating temperature range, it indicates that the temperature of the passenger compartment is too low and needs to be increased. Therefore, the vehicle air conditioner may be controlled to operate in heating mode.

[0094] Through this embodiment, the temperature of the passenger compartment can be adjusted to within the operating temperature range.

[0095] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, controlling the vehicle air conditioner to turn on when the first temperature is outside the operating temperature range may further include: determining a temperature difference between the first temperature and the operating temperature range when the first temperature is outside the operating temperature range; determining a first target value for a first operating parameter of the vehicle air conditioner based on the temperature difference; and controlling the vehicle air conditioner to operate based on the first target value of the first operating parameter. The first operating parameter includes at least one of an operating mode, a wind speed, and an operating temperature.

[0096] In this embodiment, determining the temperature difference between the first temperature and the operating temperature range may be determining the temperature difference between the first temperature and an upper limit or a lower limit of the operating temperature range.

[0097] Specifically, when the first temperature is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range, the temperature difference between the first temperature and the upper limit of the operating temperature range is determined; when the first temperature is less than or equal to the lower limit of the operating temperature range, the temperature difference between the first temperature and the lower limit of the operating temperature range is determined.

[0098] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, first mapping data reflecting the mapping relationship between the temperature difference and the wind speed of the vehicle air conditioner in the heating mode, second mapping data reflecting the mapping relationship between the temperature difference and the operating temperature of the vehicle air conditioner in the heating mode, third mapping data reflecting the mapping relationship between the temperature difference and the wind speed of the vehicle air conditioner in the cooling mode, and fourth mapping data reflecting the mapping relationship between the temperature difference and the operating temperature of the vehicle air conditioner in the cooling mode may be pre-established.

[0099] In this embodiment, the first mapping data may be a first mapping function, or a first comparison table, etc., which is not limited here.

[0100] For the first mapping function, the dependent variable of the first mapping function is wind speed, and the independent variable is temperature difference. In this way, by substituting the temperature difference between the first temperature and the operating temperature range into the first mapping function, the wind speed value corresponding to the temperature difference can be obtained as the first target value of the wind speed.

[0101] For the first lookup table, the wind speed value corresponding to the temperature difference can be searched in the first lookup table and used as the first target wind speed value. If the temperature difference cannot be directly found in the first lookup table, two values ​​adjacent to the temperature difference can be searched and, based on these two values ​​and the wind speed values ​​corresponding to these two values, the wind speed value corresponding to the temperature difference can be obtained by interpolation as the first target wind speed value.

[0102] In this embodiment, the second mapping data may be a second mapping function, or a second comparison table, etc., which is not limited here.

[0103] For the second mapping function, the dependent variable of the second mapping function is the operating temperature, and the independent variable is the temperature difference. In this way, by substituting the temperature difference between the second temperature and the operating temperature range into the second mapping function, the operating temperature value corresponding to the temperature difference can be obtained as the first target value of the operating temperature.

[0104] The second lookup table can be used to find the operating temperature value corresponding to the temperature difference and use it as the first target operating temperature value. If the temperature difference cannot be directly found in the second lookup table, two values ​​adjacent to the temperature difference can be found. Based on these two values ​​and the operating temperature values ​​corresponding to these two values, an operating temperature value corresponding to the temperature difference can be obtained by interpolation and used as the first target operating temperature value.

[0105] In this embodiment, the third mapping data may be a third mapping function, or a third comparison table, etc., which is not limited here.

[0106] For the third mapping function, the dependent variable of the third mapping function is wind speed, and the independent variable is temperature difference. In this way, by substituting the temperature difference between the third temperature and the operating temperature range into the third mapping function, the wind speed value corresponding to the temperature difference can be obtained as the first target value of the wind speed.

[0107] The third lookup table can be used to find the wind speed value corresponding to the temperature difference and use it as the first target wind speed value. If the temperature difference cannot be directly found in the third lookup table, two values ​​adjacent to the temperature difference can be found. Based on these two values ​​and the wind speed values ​​corresponding to these two values, the wind speed value corresponding to the temperature difference can be obtained by interpolation and used as the first target wind speed value.

[0108] In this embodiment, the fourth mapping data may be a fourth mapping function, or a fourth comparison table, etc., which is not limited here.

[0109] For the fourth mapping function, the dependent variable of the fourth mapping function is the operating temperature, and the independent variable is the temperature difference. In this way, by substituting the temperature difference between the fourth temperature and the operating temperature range into the fourth mapping function, the operating temperature value corresponding to the temperature difference can be obtained as the first target value of the operating temperature.

[0110] The fourth lookup table can be used to find the operating temperature value corresponding to the temperature difference and use it as the first target operating temperature value. If the temperature difference cannot be directly found in the fourth lookup table, two values ​​adjacent to the temperature difference can be found. Based on these two values ​​and the operating temperature values ​​corresponding to these two values, an operating temperature value corresponding to the temperature difference can be obtained by interpolation to use as the first target operating temperature value.

[0111] Furthermore, in the heating mode, the greater the temperature difference, the greater the wind speed of the corresponding vehicle air conditioner, and the lower the operating temperature of the corresponding vehicle air conditioner. In the cooling mode, the greater the temperature difference, the greater the wind speed of the corresponding vehicle air conditioner, and the higher the operating temperature of the corresponding vehicle air conditioner.

[0112] Furthermore, when the temperature difference between the first temperature and the operating temperature range is obtained, when the temperature difference is positive, the wind speed of the vehicle air conditioner is obtained based on the temperature difference and the third mapping data, and the operating temperature of the vehicle air conditioner is obtained based on the temperature difference and the fourth mapping data; when the temperature difference is negative, the wind speed of the vehicle air conditioner is obtained based on the temperature difference and the first mapping data, and the operating temperature of the vehicle air conditioner is obtained based on the temperature difference and the second mapping data.

[0113] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, controlling the operation of the vehicle air conditioner according to the first target value of the first operating parameter may be to adjust the first operating parameter of the vehicle air conditioner to the corresponding first target value so that the vehicle air conditioner operates when the first operating parameter is the corresponding first target value.

[0114] Step S1400: When the first temperature is within the operating temperature range, the vehicle refrigerator is controlled to turn on.

[0115] In this embodiment, when the vehicle refrigerator is controlled to be turned on, the compressor of the vehicle refrigerator starts to run to achieve the corresponding refrigeration function.

[0116] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when a vehicle receives a first instruction to start the car refrigerator through a cloud service, and the first temperature of the vehicle's passenger compartment is outside the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator, the vehicle air conditioner can be controlled to turn on to adjust the temperature of the passenger compartment to within the operating temperature range, and then the car refrigerator can be controlled to start. This can prevent the refrigerator compressor from starting or running under harsh working conditions, protect the car refrigerator compressor, prevent the car refrigerator compressor from overheating and damage, and extend the service life of the car refrigerator.

[0117] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the vehicle refrigerator is turned on, the method may further include: detecting whether there is anyone in the passenger compartment; determining a second target value for a second operating parameter of the vehicle refrigerator based on the detection result; and controlling the operation of the vehicle refrigerator based on the second target value of the second operating parameter. The second operating parameter may include compressor speed and / or fan speed.

[0118] Furthermore, detecting whether there is anyone in the passenger compartment may be detecting whether there is anyone sitting in each seat in the passenger compartment.

[0119] In one example, a pressure sensor may be provided on a seat in the passenger compartment. When the pressure detected by the pressure sensor on a seat is greater than or equal to a set pressure threshold, it is determined that there is someone on the seat; otherwise, it is determined that there is no one on the seat.

[0120] In another example, distance sensors may be provided on seats in the passenger compartment. When the distance detected by the distance sensor on a seat is greater than or equal to a set distance threshold, it is determined that there is someone on the seat; otherwise, it is determined that there is no one on the seat.

[0121] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the first value of the second operating parameter of the vehicle refrigerator when there is someone in the passenger compartment and the second value of the second operating parameter of the vehicle refrigerator when there is no one in the passenger compartment may be pre-set.

[0122] Furthermore, the first value of the compressor speed of the car refrigerator when there is someone in the passenger compartment may be less than or equal to the second value of the compressor speed of the car refrigerator when there is no one in the passenger compartment, and the first value of the fan speed of the car refrigerator when there is someone in the passenger compartment may be less than or equal to the second value of the fan speed of the car refrigerator when there is no one in the passenger compartment.

[0123] When there is someone in the passenger compartment, the first value of the second operating parameter of the vehicle refrigerator when there is someone in the passenger compartment can be determined as the second target value; when there is no one in the passenger compartment, the second value of the second operating parameter of the vehicle refrigerator when there is no one in the passenger compartment can be determined as the second target value.

[0124] In this embodiment, the operation of the vehicle refrigerator is controlled according to the second target value of the second operating parameter, which can be to adjust the second operating parameter of the vehicle refrigerator to the corresponding second target value so that the vehicle refrigerator operates when the second operating parameter is the corresponding second target value.

[0125] Through this embodiment, when there are people in the passenger compartment, the loud operating noise of the car refrigerator can be avoided from disturbing the people in the passenger compartment. When there are no people in the passenger compartment, the car refrigerator can quickly achieve the preset cooling effect.

[0126] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the method may further include steps S2100 to S2300 as shown in FIG2 :

[0127] Step S2100, when the vehicle refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode and the second temperature of the passenger compartment is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range of the vehicle refrigerator, control the vehicle air conditioner to turn on to lower the temperature of the passenger compartment.

[0128] In this embodiment, before executing step S2100, it may be determined whether the vehicle refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode, and whether the second temperature of the passenger compartment is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range of the vehicle refrigerator.

[0129] On this basis, it is possible to first determine whether the car refrigerator has entered the delayed power-off mode, and if it is determined that the car refrigerator has entered the delayed power-off mode, determine whether the second temperature of the passenger compartment is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator; it is also possible to first determine whether the second temperature of the passenger compartment is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator, and if it is determined that the second temperature is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator, then determine whether the car refrigerator has entered the delayed power-off mode; it is also possible to simultaneously determine whether the car refrigerator has entered the delayed power-off mode and whether the second temperature of the passenger compartment is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator.

[0130] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the vehicle refrigerator may enter the delayed power-off mode when the vehicle is turned off.

[0131] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the vehicle may control the vehicle refrigerator to enter the delayed power-off mode in response to a second instruction via a cloud service. Specifically, a second button for triggering the second instruction may be provided on a mobile terminal connected to the vehicle. In response to a user triggering the second button, the mobile terminal may send the second instruction to the vehicle via the cloud service. Alternatively, the mobile terminal may send the second instruction to the vehicle via the cloud service upon receiving a user voice instruction to control the vehicle refrigerator to enter the delayed power-off mode.

[0132] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, before determining whether the second temperature of the passenger compartment is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range of the vehicle refrigerator, the method may further include the step of obtaining the second temperature of the passenger compartment of the vehicle, which may specifically include: obtaining temperature data collected by the vehicle's temperature sensor within a second set time; determining the average value of the temperature of the passenger compartment within the second set time based on the temperature data as the second temperature.

[0133] In this embodiment, the temperature sensor may be disposed in the passenger compartment to detect the temperature of the passenger compartment.

[0134] Furthermore, the second set time period may be a period before obtaining the second temperature of the vehicle's passenger compartment. The duration of the second set time period may be pre-set based on an application scenario or specific needs. For example, the second set time period may be within three minutes before obtaining the second temperature of the vehicle's passenger compartment.

[0135] In this embodiment, the average temperature of the passenger compartment within the second set time is determined based on the temperature data collected by the temperature sensor within the second set time, and used as the second temperature. This can make the obtained second temperature more accurate, and make the subsequent control of the vehicle refrigerator and / or vehicle air conditioner more accurate.

[0136] Furthermore, the method for obtaining the second temperature may be the same as or different from the method for obtaining the first temperature, which is not limited here.

[0137] When the car refrigerator is in the delayed power-off mode and the second temperature is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator, it means that the temperature in the passenger compartment is too high, which may affect the performance of the compressor of the car refrigerator. Therefore, the car air conditioner can be controlled to operate in cooling mode to lower the temperature of the passenger compartment, and then the compressor of the running car refrigerator is cooled to protect it, so as to avoid the compressor from operating under harsh high-temperature conditions.

[0138] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the vehicle refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode and the second temperature is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range, the vehicle air conditioner is directly controlled to turn on.

[0139] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, when the vehicle refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode and the second temperature is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range, the vehicle air conditioner is controlled to turn on, including: when the vehicle refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode and the second temperature is greater than or equal to the upper limit of the operating temperature range, sending a first request to turn on the vehicle air conditioner to a mobile terminal connected to the vehicle through a cloud service; when a first response returned by the mobile terminal is received within a third set time after sending the first request, the vehicle air conditioner is controlled to turn on, the first response indicating consent to turn on the vehicle air conditioner; when a second response returned by the mobile terminal is received within the third set time after sending the first request, or when no response returned by the mobile terminal is received within the third set time after sending the first request, the vehicle refrigerator is controlled to turn off.

[0140] The third set time may be pre-set according to an application scenario or specific requirements. For example, the third set time may be 10 seconds or 30 seconds.

[0141] In this embodiment, when the mobile terminal receives the first request, it displays the first prompt information corresponding to the first request, and the first prompt information is information prompting the user whether to turn on the vehicle air conditioner.

[0142] When the user receives the first prompt message and agrees to turn on the air conditioner, the user can click a third button provided on the mobile terminal or input a voice command to agree to turn on the air conditioner, thereby triggering the mobile terminal to return a first response to the vehicle. When the user receives the first prompt message and disagrees to turn on the air conditioner, the user can click a fourth button provided on the mobile terminal or input a voice command to disagree to turn on the air conditioner, thereby triggering the mobile terminal to return a second response to the vehicle.

[0143] If the vehicle receives a first response returned by the mobile terminal within the third set time after sending the first request, the vehicle air conditioner is controlled to turn on; if the vehicle receives a second response returned by the mobile terminal within the third set time after sending the first request, the vehicle refrigerator is controlled to turn off; if the vehicle does not receive the first response or the second response returned by the mobile terminal within the third set time after sending the first request, the vehicle refrigerator is controlled to turn off.

[0144] When a first response is received within the third set time after the vehicle sends the first request, the vehicle air conditioner is controlled to turn on to lower the temperature of the passenger compartment; when a second response is received within the third set time after the vehicle sends the first request, or when no response is received from the mobile terminal, the vehicle refrigerator can be controlled to turn off directly without executing subsequent steps S2200 and S2300. This can avoid the impact of harsh working conditions on the compressor of the vehicle refrigerator, protect the compressor of the vehicle refrigerator, avoid overheating and damage to the compressor of the vehicle refrigerator, and extend the service life of the vehicle refrigerator.

[0145] Step S2200, determining whether the time for the vehicle refrigerator to enter the delayed power-off mode reaches the set delayed power-off time.

[0146] In this embodiment, the power-off delay time can be pre-set based on the application scenario or specific needs. For example, the power-off delay time can be 10 minutes or half an hour. The power-off delay time can be fixed or set by the user through the central control screen or mobile terminal.

[0147] Furthermore, the timing may be started from when the vehicle-mounted refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode, and the timing time represents the time when the vehicle-mounted refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode.

[0148] Furthermore, when the time when the car refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode is less than the delayed power-off time, it can be determined that the time when the car refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode has not reached the delayed power-off time; when the time when the car refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode is greater than or equal to the delayed power-off time, it can be determined that the time when the car refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode has reached the delayed power-off time.

[0149] Step S2300: When the time for the vehicle refrigerator to enter the delayed power-off mode reaches the delayed power-off time, the vehicle refrigerator is controlled to be turned off.

[0150] Through this embodiment, the delayed power-off function of the car refrigerator can be realized. At the same time, when the car refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode, the compressor of the car refrigerator can be protected to avoid the impact of harsh working conditions on the compressor of the car refrigerator, and to avoid overheating and damage of the compressor of the car refrigerator, so as to extend the service life of the car refrigerator.

[0151] Furthermore, when the time when the car refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode has not reached the delayed power-off time, the car air conditioner may be kept running in the cooling mode until the time when the car refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode reaches the delayed power-off time.

[0152] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the vehicle refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode and the second temperature is less than or equal to the lower limit of the operating temperature range of the vehicle refrigerator, the vehicle refrigerator is controlled to be turned off.

[0153] When the car refrigerator is in the delayed power-off mode, if the temperature in the passenger compartment drops too quickly, causing the car refrigerator to enter the delayed power-off mode before reaching the set delayed power-off time, and the second temperature is less than or equal to the lower limit of the operating temperature range of the car refrigerator, the car refrigerator can be controlled to shut down to reduce the power consumption of the car refrigerator.

[0154] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the vehicle refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode and the second temperature is less than or equal to the lower limit of the operating temperature range of the vehicle refrigerator, the vehicle directly controls the vehicle refrigerator to shut down.

[0155] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, when the vehicle refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode and the second temperature is less than or equal to the lower limit of the operating temperature range, controlling the vehicle refrigerator to shut down may include: when the second temperature is less than or equal to the lower limit of the operating temperature range, sending a second request to shut down the vehicle refrigerator to the mobile terminal through the cloud service; when a third response returned by the mobile terminal is received within a fourth set time after sending the second request, controlling the vehicle refrigerator to shut down, the third response indicating agreement to shut down the vehicle refrigerator.

[0156] Furthermore, the method may further include: if a fourth response is received within a fourth set time after sending the second request, or if no response is received from the mobile terminal within the fourth set time after sending the second request, controlling the vehicle air conditioner to turn on, and continuing to execute steps S2200 and S2300. The fourth response indicates that the vehicle refrigerator is not approved to be turned off.

[0157] The fourth set time may be pre-set according to an application scenario or specific requirements. For example, the fourth set time may be 10 seconds or 30 seconds.

[0158] In this embodiment, when the mobile terminal receives the second request, it displays the second prompt information corresponding to the second request, and the second prompt information is information prompting the user whether to turn off the car refrigerator.

[0159] If the user receives the second prompt message and agrees to close the refrigerator, the user can click a third button provided on the mobile terminal or input a voice command to agree to close the refrigerator, thereby triggering the mobile terminal to return a third response to the vehicle. If the user receives the second prompt message and disagrees to close the refrigerator, the user can click a fourth button provided on the mobile terminal or input a voice command to disagree to close the refrigerator, thereby triggering the mobile terminal to return a fourth response to the vehicle.

[0160] If the vehicle receives the third response returned by the mobile terminal within the fourth set time after sending the second request, the vehicle controls the vehicle refrigerator to turn off; if the vehicle receives the fourth response returned by the mobile terminal within the fourth set time after sending the second request, the vehicle controls the vehicle refrigerator to turn off; if the vehicle does not receive the third response or the fourth response returned by the mobile terminal within the fourth set time after sending the second request, step S2200 is executed at the set frequency until the time when the vehicle refrigerator enters the delayed power-off mode reaches the delayed power-off time and then step S2300 is executed.

[0161] If the vehicle receives a third response within a fourth set time after sending the second request, the vehicle refrigerator may be controlled to shut down to reduce the vehicle refrigerator's power consumption. If the vehicle receives a fourth response within the fourth set time after sending the second request, or if no response is received from the mobile terminal, the vehicle air conditioner may be controlled to turn on to increase the temperature in the passenger compartment to prevent the compressor from operating in harsh, low-temperature conditions, thereby protecting the vehicle refrigerator's compressor. Furthermore, if the vehicle receives a fourth response within the fourth set time after sending the second request, or if no response is received from the mobile terminal, the vehicle further executes step S2200 at a set frequency until the vehicle refrigerator enters delayed power-off mode for the delayed power-off time, and then executes step S2300, thereby implementing the delayed power-off function of the vehicle refrigerator.
