DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] The switch arranged on the hidden handle is relatively concealed, and in an emergency or in insufficient light, or for the elderly, the switch cannot be easily identified by the user. This can cause the user to be unable to find the switch or to use it inconveniently, reducing the ease of use and user experience of the vehicle.
[0035] Therefore, the present application provides a door opening and closing system, a window assembly, a pillar assembly and a vehicle that improve the convenience of user operation. The door opening and closing system, the window assembly, the pillar assembly and the vehicle of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings. The features in the following embodiments and implementation manners can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0036] The door opening and closing system 1 is arranged on the vehicle. The door opening and closing system 1 is used to control the opening or closing of the door of the vehicle. The door opening and closing system 1 has an important function 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 some extent.
[0037] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 6, the door switch system 1 comprises a switch module 10 and a control module 20. The control module 20 is electrically connected with the switch module 10 and cooperates with the switch module 10 to control the opening or closing of the door of the vehicle. In some embodiments, the switch module 10 comprises a main operation module 11 and a main light source module 12. The main operation module 11 comprises a main pressure sensor 111 and at least two main capacitive sensors 112. The at least two main capacitive sensors 112 comprise a first main capacitive sensor 112a and a second main capacitive sensor 112b. The first main capacitive sensor 112a is arranged outside the main pressure sensor 111 and the outer edge of the first main capacitive sensor 112a is spaced apart from the outer edge of the main pressure sensor 111. This can be understood as that the first main capacitive sensor 112a can be arranged with a gap from the main pressure sensor 111, or the first main capacitive sensor 112a can be arranged without a gap from the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitive sensor 112a is located at the outer edge of the main pressure sensor 111. The second main capacitive sensor 112b is arranged outside the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the outer edge of the second main capacitive sensor 112b is spaced apart from the outer edge of the first main capacitive sensor 112a. This can be understood as that the second main capacitive sensor 112b can be arranged with a gap from the first main capacitive sensor 112a, or the second main capacitive sensor 112b can be arranged without a gap from the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b is located at the outer edge of the first main capacitive sensor 112a. 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 is in the range of 3.5N to 30N), the main pressure sensor 111 will output a corresponding electrical signal. The first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b are both used to sense media with different dielectric constants in the outside world and output corresponding electrical signals. The first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b have the same structure but different arrangement positions. When the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b sense different media, the contents represented by the output electrical signals are different. The first main capacitive sensor 112a is arranged inside the second main capacitive sensor 112b and can be a control main capacitive sensor. When the first main capacitive sensor 112a senses a signal with a change in dielectric constant, it indicates that there is a trigger signal at this time. The second main capacitive sensor 112b is arranged outside the first main capacitive sensor 112a and can be a false trigger prevention main capacitive sensor. When the second main capacitive sensor 112b outputs a signal, it indicates that there is a false trigger action at this time. The main light source module 12 is arranged between the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b.The main light source module 12 can serve as a boundary line of the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b. The area inside the main light source module 12 is a user operable area, and the area outside the main light source module 12 is a user mis-trigger area. That is, when the user contacts the area inside the main light source module 12, the output signal is a valid trigger signal, and when the user contacts the area outside the main light source module 12, the output signal is a mis-trigger signal.
[0038] The control module 20 is electrically connected with the main operation module 11 and the main light source module 12. That is, the control module 20 is electrically connected with the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, and the main light source module 12. The control module 20 is configured to control the main light source module 12 to light up the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitive sensor 112a when the vehicle is in a stop state, the door of the vehicle is in an unlocked state, and the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, and the second main capacitive sensor 112b all have no signal output. When the vehicle is in a stop state and the door of the vehicle is in an unlocked state, the control switch module 10 can effectively control the opening or closing of the door. The running state of the vehicle and the unlocking state of the door can be determined by the control module 20, which will not be described here. Under normal working conditions, when the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, and the second main capacitive sensor 112b all have no signal output, it indicates that the main pressure sensor 111 is not subjected to pressure, and the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b are not contacted by any medium, that is, the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, and the second main capacitive sensor 112b are all in an untriggered state, and no mis-triggering action occurs. At this time, the control module 20 controls the main light source module 12 to light up the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitive sensor 112a, that is, the main light source module 12 lights up the operable area inside the main light source module 12, while reminding the user to avoid triggering the mis-trigger area outside the main light source module 12. In this way, the reminding effect of the control switch module 10 is more obvious, which is convenient for the user to operate, especially in an emergency or in a low light condition, or for the elderly. By lighting up the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitive sensor 112a inside the main light source module 12 through the main light source module 12, the user can quickly and easily identify the operation area, improve the convenience of user operation, thereby improving the user experience, avoiding misoperation or mis-triggering, and reducing the error rate.
[0039] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is configured to output a control signal for controlling the opening of the vehicle door when the received signal indicates that the value of the pressure sensed by the main pressure sensor 111 is within the pressure threshold range and no false triggering occurs. In this embodiment, the vehicle door is further provided with a door lock, which can be an electrically controlled lock and is electrically connected to the control module 20. When the vehicle is in a normal working condition and the main pressure sensor 111 receives a valid pressure signal, the control module 20 outputs a control signal for controlling the opening of the vehicle door to control the opening of the door lock. In this way, when the vehicle is in a normal working condition, the valid pressure signal of the main pressure sensor 111 can be received by the control module 20, thereby effectively controlling the opening of the door lock and improving the safety of the vehicle.
[0040] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 6, in some embodiments, the switch module 10 further comprises an auxiliary operation module 13 and an auxiliary light source module 14. The auxiliary operation module 13 comprises an auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132. The at least two auxiliary capacitance sensors 132 comprise a first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and a second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b. The first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a is arranged outside the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the outer edge of the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a is spaced apart from the outer edge of the auxiliary pressure sensor 131. This can be understood as that the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a can be arranged with a gap from the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, or the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a can be arranged without a gap from 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 apart from the outer edge of the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a. This can be understood as that the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b can be arranged with a gap from the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, or the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b can be arranged without a gap from 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. The auxiliary pressure sensor 131 is used to sense the pressure of the outside world and output corresponding electrical signals. When the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 is subjected to a certain pressure (for example, the pressure is in the range of 3.5N to 30N), the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 will output corresponding electrical signals. The first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b are both used to sense media with different dielectric constants in the outside world and output corresponding electrical signals. The first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b have the same structure but different arrangement positions. When the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b sense different media, the contents represented by the output electrical signals are different. The first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a is arranged inside the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a can be a control auxiliary capacitance sensor. When the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a senses a signal of dielectric constant change, 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 a false trigger prevention auxiliary capacitance sensor. When the second auxiliary capacitance sensor 132b outputs a signal, it indicates that there is a false trigger 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 boundary line of the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b. The area inside the auxiliary light source module 14 is a user operable area, and the area outside the auxiliary light source module 14 is a user false trigger area. That is, when the user contacts the area inside the auxiliary light source module 14, the output signal is a valid trigger signal, and when the user contacts the area outside the auxiliary light source module 14, the output signal is a false trigger signal.
[0041] The control module 20 is electrically connected with the auxiliary operation module 13 and the auxiliary light source module 14. That is, the control module 20 is electrically connected with 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 the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a when the vehicle is in a stop state, the door of the vehicle 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 all have no signal output. 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 all have no signal output, it indicates 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 subjected to contact with any medium, that is, 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 are all in a non-triggered state, and no false triggering action occurs, at this time, the control module 20 controls the main light source module 12 to light the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a, that is, the main light source module 12 lights the operable area inside the main light source module 12, and at the same time reminds the user to avoid triggering the false triggering area outside the main light source module 12. In this way, the reminding effect of the switch module 10 is more obvious, which is convenient for the user to operate, especially in an emergency, or in a case of insufficient light, or for the elderly, the user can quickly and easily identify the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a inside the main light source module 12 by lighting the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitance sensor 112a inside the main light source module 12, which improves the convenience of user operation, thereby improving the user experience, avoiding misoperation or false triggering, and reducing the error rate. In another embodiment, when the main light source module 12 fails, for example, the control module 20 can also control the auxiliary light source module 14 to light the operation area of the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitance sensor 132a, that is, the auxiliary light source module 14 lights the operable area inside the auxiliary light source module 14, and at the same time reminds the user to avoid triggering the false triggering area outside the auxiliary light source module 14.
[0042] In the above embodiment, the vehicle door switch system 1 is provided with the main operation module 11, the main light source module 12, the auxiliary operation module 13 and the auxiliary light source module 14. In normal working conditions, when no pressure signal and dielectric constant change signal are received and no false triggering occurs, the corresponding operation area can be illuminated by the main light source module 12. When the main light source module 12 fails, for example, the auxiliary light source module 14 can be used as a backup light source module to illuminate the corresponding operation area. Of course, when the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 can normally operate, the main light source module 12 is preferentially controlled to illuminate the corresponding operation area, and the auxiliary light source module 14 can not illuminate the corresponding operation area. In this way, the display function of the switch module 10 can be effectively ensured to normally operate, the user's use is not affected, the user's operation convenience is improved, and the power consumption is reduced and the service life is prolonged.
[0043] As shown in FIGS. 3 and 6, in some embodiments, the switch module 10 further includes a false triggering prevention module 15, and the false triggering prevention module 15 includes a false triggering prevention pressure sensor. The false triggering prevention pressure sensor is used to sense the false triggering pressure of the outside world and output a corresponding false triggering electric signal. When the false triggering prevention pressure sensor is subjected to a certain pressure (for example, the pressure is in the range of 3.5N to 30N), the false triggering prevention pressure sensor outputs a corresponding false triggering electric signal, at this time, it indicates that the switch module 10 is falsely triggered or falsely operated, and the control module 20 can not output any signal. The false triggering prevention pressure sensor is arranged between the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13, and is arranged separately from the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13. By arranging the false triggering prevention pressure sensor between the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13, false triggering can be avoided.
[0044] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is electrically connected with the false trigger prevention pressure sensor. The control module 20 is configured to control the main light source module 12 to illuminate the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitive sensor 112a, and control the auxiliary light source module 14 to illuminate the operation area of the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, when the vehicle is in a stop state, the door of the vehicle is in an unlocked state, and the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b, and the false trigger prevention pressure sensor all have no signal output. In a normal working condition, when the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b, and the false trigger prevention pressure sensor all have no signal output, it indicates that the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are not subjected to pressure, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b are not subjected to contact of any medium, and the false trigger prevention pressure sensor is not triggered, i.e., the main pressure sensor 111, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b are all in a non-triggered state, and no false trigger action occurs, at this time, the plurality of operation areas can be illuminated by the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14. In this way, the user can have multiple choices, and the use convenience is improved.
[0045] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is configured to output a control signal for controlling the opening of the vehicle door when the received signals indicate that the values of the pressures sensed by the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are both within a pressure threshold range, and the anti-misoperation pressure sensor has no signal output. When the vehicle is in a normal working condition, the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 both receive valid pressure signals, and the anti-misoperation pressure sensor has no misoperation signal output. The control module 20 outputs a control signal for controlling the opening of the vehicle door to control the opening of the door lock. In this way, when the vehicle is in a normal working condition, the control module 20 can receive valid pressure signals from the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, thereby effectively controlling the opening of the door lock and improving the safety of the vehicle. The pressure threshold range in the present embodiment can be 3.5N to 30N, which is a preferred pressure range obtained through a large amount of data. When the user applies a pressure within the pressure threshold range, the normal trigger valid signal can be ensured, and the pressure sensor will not be damaged. The pressure threshold range can also be adjusted according to actual conditions, which is not limited in the present embodiment.
[0046] In some embodiments, when the control module 20 receives a signal indicating that the anti-misoperation pressure sensor has a signal output, it indicates that the switch module 10 is misfired. At this time, the control module 20 does not output any control signal to avoid misoperation or misfiring, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle.
[0047] In some other embodiments, when the vehicle is in the stop state and the door of the vehicle is in the unlocked state, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b all have signal outputs, and the main pressure sensor 111, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, and the false trigger prevention pressure sensor all have no signal outputs, the control module 20 controls the main light source module 12 to light up the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitive sensor 112a, and controls the auxiliary light source module 14 to light up the operation area of the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a. In abnormal working conditions such as rain or snow, when the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b all have signal outputs, and the main pressure sensor 111, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, and the false trigger prevention pressure sensor all have no signal outputs, it indicates that the main pressure sensor 111, the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, and the false trigger prevention pressure sensor are not subjected to pressure, while the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b simultaneously receive signals of dielectric constant change. That is, it can be determined that the surfaces of the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b are all covered with a medium with the same dielectric constant, for example, rain or snow appears in the environment where the switch module 10 is located. At this time, the control module 20 controls the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 to light up the operation area of the main pressure sensor 111 and the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the operation area of the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a at the same time. In this way, by setting multiple main capacitive sensors and multiple auxiliary capacitive sensors to simultaneously sense changes in the external environment, a temperature sensor does not need to be set, thereby reducing costs and improving detection sensitivity. Moreover, by providing multiple operation areas, for example, two operation areas, even in abnormal working conditions such as rain or snow, the two operation areas can be easily or quickly identified, which is more conducive to user operation and improves user experience.
[0048] In some embodiments, the vehicle comprises an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) electrically connected with the control module 20. The Anti-lock Braking System is used to prevent the brake from locking and the wheel from slipping when braking is difficult or on a wet or slippery surface, prevent the vehicle from dangerous sliding and allow 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 vehicle collision during driving, the Anti-lock Braking System is started. The control module 20 is used to control the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 to light 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 at the same time when the Anti-lock Braking System is started and the vehicle is in a stopped state. When the vehicle obtains an abnormal signal such as vehicle collision during driving, the Anti-lock Braking System is started, that is, the vehicle is in a collision abnormal working condition, and the control module 20 receives the abnormal signal, the control module 20 controls the main light source module 12 and the auxiliary light source module 14 to light 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 at the same time. In this way, by providing multiple operation areas, for example, two operation areas, even in the abnormal working condition of vehicle collision, the two operation areas can be easily or quickly identified, which is more conducive to user operation and improves the safety of the vehicle, thereby improving the user experience.
[0049] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is used to output a control signal for controlling the opening of the door of the vehicle after the Anti-lock Braking System is started. When the vehicle obtains an abnormal signal such as vehicle collision during driving, the Anti-lock Braking System is started. That is, when the vehicle is in a collision abnormal working condition, a door unlocking signal is sent to slightly open the door, so that external personnel can pull open the door through the gap. In this way, the door can be opened in time when the vehicle is in a collision abnormal working condition, which is conducive to the rescue of external personnel and improves the safety guarantee, thereby improving the user experience.
[0050] In the above embodiments, the abnormal working conditions are taken by rain or snow, collision as examples, but are not limited thereto. In other embodiments, other abnormal working conditions can also be included, which will not be described here.
[0051] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is configured to output a control signal for controlling the opening of the vehicle door when the received signals indicate that the values of the pressures sensed by the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 are within the pressure threshold range, and the pressure sensor is not triggered by mistake. When the vehicle is in the above two abnormal working conditions (rain or snow, collision), and the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131 both receive valid pressure signals, the control module 20 outputs a control signal for controlling the opening of the vehicle door to control the opening of the door lock. In this way, when the vehicle is in an abnormal working condition, the control module 20 can receive valid pressure signals from the main pressure sensor 111 and the auxiliary pressure sensor 131, thereby effectively controlling the opening of the door lock and improving the safety of the vehicle.
[0052] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is configured to not output a control signal for controlling the opening of the vehicle door when the received signals indicate that the pressure sensed by the main pressure sensor 111 and / or 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 pressure sensor is triggered by mistake. When the vehicle is in the above two abnormal working conditions, and the pressure sensed by the main pressure sensor 111 and / or 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, it is determined that the pressure sensor is triggered by mistake or intentionally damaged, and the pressure signal is invalid. In this case, the control module 20 does not output a control signal, thereby avoiding triggering by mistake and improving the safety of the vehicle.
[0053] Since the vehicle is exposed to the external environment for a long time, the surface of the switch module 10 often appears rainwater, frost, ice, or fog, etc. To further optimize the convenience of using the switch module 10, the vehicle door switch system 1 of the embodiments of the present application further comprises a heating module 16 for removing or eliminating rainwater, frost, ice, or fog, etc. on the surface of the switch module 10.
[0054] As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 6, in some embodiments, the switch module 10 comprises a main operation module 11 and an auxiliary operation module 13, which are arranged at intervals. The heating module 16 is arranged outside the main operation module 11 and outside the auxiliary operation module 13. The control module 20 is electrically connected with 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 vehicle door switch system 1 of the present embodiment comprises the switch module 10, the heating module 16 and the control module 20. The switch module 10 comprises the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13, the heating module 16 is arranged outside the main operation module 11 and outside the auxiliary operation module 13, and the control module 20 is electrically connected with 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. 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, so as to deal with or remove the rainwater, frost, ice or fog that may appear on the surface of the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13, ensure the normal use of the switch module 10, ensure the normal operation of the vehicle door switch system, improve the convenience of user operation, and thus improve the user experience.
[0055] In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 6, the main operation module 11 comprises at least two main capacitive sensors 112, and the outer edges of the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 are arranged at intervals. The auxiliary operation module 13 comprises at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132, and the outer edges of the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 are arranged at intervals. The heating module 16 is arranged outside the outermost main capacitive sensor 112 and outside the outermost auxiliary capacitive sensor 132. The heating module 16 is arranged outside the outermost main capacitive sensor 112 and outside the outermost auxiliary capacitive sensor 132, so as to ensure that the rainwater, frost, ice, snow or fog covering the surfaces of the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 can be fully removed when the heating module 16 works.
[0056] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is electrically connected with the at least two main capacitive sensors 112, the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132, and the heating module 16. When the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 both output signals, the control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to work to heat the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132. When the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 both output signals, it indicates that the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 simultaneously receive signals of dielectric constant change. That is, it can be determined that the surfaces of the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 are both covered with the same dielectric constant medium, for example, the environment where the switch module 10 is located appears rain, frost, ice, snow, fog, or other medium. At this time, the control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to work to heat the surfaces of the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132, so as to eliminate the rain, frost, ice, snow, fog, or other medium covered on the surfaces of the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132. In this way, when the switch module 10 is in a cold season or region, and the main capacitive sensors 112 and the auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 both output signals, the heating module 16 is controlled to heat the main capacitive sensors 112 and the auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 to process or remove the rain, frost, ice, snow, fog, or other medium that may appear on the surfaces of the main capacitive sensors 112 and the auxiliary capacitive sensors 132, so as to ensure the normal use of the switch module 10, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the door switch system, improving the convenience of user operation, and thus improving the user experience.
[0057] In some embodiments, when at least one of the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 does not output a signal, it indicates that the surfaces of the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 are not both covered with the same dielectric constant medium. At this time, the control module 20 does not output any heating signal. When the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 are in the same external environment, the dielectric constant of the medium sensed is consistent. Therefore, when the signals output by the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 indicate the same dielectric constant medium, the control module 20 outputs an effective control signal to control the heating module 16 to work, and does not output in other cases.
[0058] For different dielectric constant media, the control module 20 controls the heating duration and heating temperature of the heating module 16, which can be set according to actual conditions, and will not be described here.
[0059] In some embodiments, the control module 20 is configured to control the heating module 16 to heat for at least 15 minutes. In this way, it is ensured that the surface of the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 can be substantially or completely free of rain, frost, ice, snow, fog or the like, so as not to affect the user's operation. In some embodiments, the control module 20 is configured to control the heating module 16 to heat at a temperature of not more than 70°C, for example, to control the heating module 16 to heat at a temperature of 50°C. In the case of being able to eliminate rain, frost, ice, snow or fog, the heating temperature of the heating module 16 is low, which can prolong the service life of the heating module 16, the main capacitive sensor 112 and the auxiliary capacitive sensor 132.
[0060] As shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, in some embodiments, the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b are both ring body structures, and the second main capacitive sensor 112b is arranged outside the first main capacitive sensor 112a. The outer edge of the second main capacitive sensor 112b is arranged in a spaced manner with the outer edge of the first main capacitive sensor 112a. The first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b are solid ring body structures formed by winding a coil (for example, one turn around one turn). The second main capacitive sensor 112b is arranged at the bottom of the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the area of the second main capacitive sensor 112b is greater than the area of the first main capacitive sensor 112a, and the first main capacitive sensor 112a is arranged inside the second main capacitive sensor 112b. Similarly, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b are both ring body structures, and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b is arranged outside the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a. The outer edge of the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b is arranged in a spaced manner with the outer edge of the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a. The first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b are solid ring body structures formed by winding a coil (for example, one turn around one turn). The second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b is arranged at the bottom of the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, the area of the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b is greater than the area of the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a is arranged inside the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b. The heating module 16 is arranged outside the second main capacitive sensor 112b and outside the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b. The outer edge of the heating module 16 is arranged in a spaced manner with the outer edge of the second main capacitive sensor 112b and the outer edge of the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b, respectively. The heating module 16 can be arranged at the bottom of the second main capacitive sensor 112b and at the bottom of the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b, and the area of the heating module 16 is greater than the area of the second main capacitive sensor 112b and the area of the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b.
[0061] The control module 20 is electrically connected with 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 configured 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 output. 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 output, it indicates 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 simultaneously receive signals of dielectric constant change. That is, 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 the same dielectric constant medium, for example, the environment where the switch module 10 is located appears rainwater or frost or ice or snow or fog and the like. At this time, the control module 20 controls the heating module 16 to work 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, so as to eliminate the rainwater or frost or ice or snow or fog and the like medium covered on 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. In this way, when the switch module 10 is in a cold season or region, 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 all have signal output, 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 the rainwater or frost or ice or snow or fog and the like medium that may appear on 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, so as to ensure the normal use of the switch module 10, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the door switch system, improving the convenience of user operation, and thus improving the user experience.
[0062] Similarly, when at least one of the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b does not output a signal, it indicates that the surface of the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b is not covered by the same dielectric constant medium, at this time the control module 20 does not output any heating signal. When the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b are in the same external environment, the dielectric constant of the medium sensed is consistent. Therefore, when the signals output by the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b represent the same dielectric constant medium, the control module 20 outputs an effective control signal to control the operation of the heating module 16, and in other cases, no output.
[0063] For different dielectric constant media, the control module 20 controls the heating time and heating temperature of the heating module 16 to be different. For the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the second main capacitive sensor 112b, and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b, the heating time and / or heating temperature can also be independently set, which can be set according to actual conditions, and will not be described here.
[0064] As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, for the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the vehicle door opening and closing system 1 further comprises 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 refer to the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, and will not be described here.
[0065] As shown in FIG. 6, in some embodiments, the vehicle door switch system 1 further comprises a temperature sensor 17 electrically connected to the control module 20. The temperature sensor 17 is configured to obtain the ambient temperature of the environment where the vehicle is currently located, and output a corresponding temperature electrical signal. The control module 20 is configured to control the heating module 16 to work to heat the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13 when the temperature electrical signal output by the temperature sensor 17 indicates that the ambient temperature of the environment where the vehicle is currently located is lower than a temperature threshold. Specifically, the control module 20 is configured to control the heating module 16 to work to heat the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 when the temperature electrical signal output by the temperature sensor 17 indicates that the ambient temperature of the environment where the vehicle is currently located is lower than the temperature threshold. In other embodiments, the temperature sensor 17 can also be used to detect the external temperature, and compare the external temperature with the set temperature threshold to determine whether it is necessary to control the heating module 16. In this way, it can be ensured that the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 can be heated by the heating module 16 when the switch module 10 is in a cold season or region, so as to ensure the normal work of the switch module 10 and improve the user experience. The temperature threshold in the present embodiment can be configured according to the actual cold season or region, and is not specifically limited.
[0066] As shown in FIG. 6, in other embodiments, the vehicle door switch system 1 further comprises a fog detection sensor 19 electrically connected to the control module 20. The fog detection sensor 19 is configured to obtain the fog concentration of the environment where the vehicle is currently located, and output a corresponding fog electrical signal. The control module 20 is configured to control the heating module 16 to work to heat the main operation module 11 and the auxiliary operation module 13 when the fog electrical signal indicates that the fog concentration of the environment where the vehicle is currently located is higher than a concentration threshold. Specifically, the control module 20 is configured to control the heating module 16 to work to heat the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 when the fog electrical signal indicates that the fog concentration of the environment where the vehicle is currently located is higher than the concentration threshold. In this way, it can be ensured that the at least two main capacitive sensors 112 and the at least two auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 can be heated by the heating module 16 when the switch module 10 is in a season or region with relatively high fog concentration or a lot of fog, so as to ensure the normal work of the switch module 10 and improve the user experience. The concentration threshold in the present embodiment can be configured according to the actual season or region, and is not specifically limited.
[0067] In some embodiments, the main capacitive sensors 112 and the auxiliary capacitive sensors 132 are contact capacitive sensors. In some embodiments, the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b are contact capacitive sensors. A contact capacitive sensor has an electrode grid on the top layer and a ground layer surrounding the electrode grid. When the contact capacitive sensor senses a human finger touching, the contact capacitive sensor generates an electrical signal corresponding to the dielectric constant of the medium of the human finger. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the maximum size of the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a is set to be no more than the size of an average human finger. For example, the maximum size of the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a is between 8 mm and 20 mm. The maximum size of the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a should not be set too large or too small. If it is set too large, the contact capacitive sensor is too sensitive, which can cause the switch module 10 to be triggered by a hand or an arm approaching. If it is set too small, the contact capacitive sensor can not be able to sense a human finger, which can cause the switch module 10 to be triggered to be insensitive.
[0068] Similarly, in the present embodiment, the maximum size of the second main capacitive sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b is set to be larger than the maximum size of the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, respectively. The maximum size of the second main capacitive sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitive 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 is increased, and the structure of the switch module 10 is not agile enough. If it is set too small, the second main capacitive sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b can overlap with the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a arranged on the inner side, or the arrangement interval distance is too small, and when a human finger touches the first main capacitive sensor 112a and the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a arranged on the inner side, false triggering or false operation can easily occur. For example, the maximum size of the second main capacitive sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b is between 25 mm and 30 mm, which can reduce the size and volume of the switch module 10, and make the structure of the switch module 10 more compact and beautiful, while ensuring that the second main capacitive sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b are not falsely triggered.
[0069] Correspondingly, in some embodiments, the maximum size of the heating module 16 is greater than the maximum size of the main operation module 11 or the maximum size of the auxiliary operation module 13. Specifically, the maximum size of the heating module 16 is greater than the maximum size of the outermost main capacitive sensor 112 or the maximum size of the outermost auxiliary capacitive sensor 132. For example, the maximum size of the heating module 16 is at least greater than 30 mm, so as to ensure that the heating module 16 can completely cover the second main capacitive sensor 112b and the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b, and the heating is more comprehensive. At the same time, the size and volume of the switch module 10 are not increased, and the structure of the switch module 10 is smaller and more beautiful.
[0070] In the above embodiments, the sizes between the first main capacitive sensor 112a, the second main capacitive sensor 112b, the first auxiliary capacitive sensor 132a, the second auxiliary capacitive sensor 132b and the heating module 16 can refer to the relative size relationship therebetween, but the actual sizes can be designed according to actual needs, which are not limited in the present application.
[0071] As shown in FIGS. 1-5, in some embodiments, the vehicle door switch system 1 comprises a circuit board 18, which is a flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board is made of a flexible substrate, usually polyester film or polyimide, etc., has good flexibility, bending and lightness, has good anti-vibration and anti-impact performance, can adapt to various bending, folding or curved surface installation applications, and can more effectively utilize the internal space of the vehicle, making the structure more compact and lighter.
