Hereinafter, the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

1, there is shown a flow chart of a method for controlling a vehicle engine according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Step 101: Acquire environmental information where the vehicle is currently located.

In this step, the main control module of the vehicle can obtain the environmental information of the environment where the vehicle is currently located from the parking environment detection module of the vehicle.

Referring to FIG. 2, a simplified architecture diagram of a vehicle engine control system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. The vehicle engine control system may include a main control module 10 and a parking environment detection module 30.

Wherein, the main control module 10 is in communication connection with the engine module 20, the parking environment detection module 30 and the vehicle network module 40 in the vehicle, and can receive the input information of each module in the vehicle, and perform logical judgments and calculations according to The judgment and calculation results control other modules to perform corresponding actions; the parking environment detection module 30 can determine the current environment information of the vehicle through the radar installed around the vehicle body and the on-board map, and can set the environment information according to the preset The time interval is continuously sent to the main control module 10 of the vehicle, that is, the main control module 10 of the vehicle can obtain the environmental information of the current environment of the vehicle from the parking environment detection module 30 of the vehicle, so as to determine whether the vehicle is parked in the preset environmental conditions middle.

Step 102: Acquire current operating state information of the vehicle engine.

In this step, the main control module of the vehicle may obtain the current operating state information of the engine of the vehicle from the engine module 20 of the vehicle.

As shown in FIG. 2, the engine module 20 can detect the current operating state information of the vehicle engine, including information that the vehicle engine is currently in the starting state or the information that the vehicle engine is in the off state, and can record the current operating state information of the vehicle engine. It is continuously sent to the main control module 10 of the vehicle at a preset time interval, that is, the main control module 10 of the vehicle can obtain the current operating state information of the vehicle engine from the engine module 20 of the vehicle.

It should be noted that when the vehicle engine is in the starting state, the engine will produce carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NOx) during the combustion process. Hazardous emissions such as power material (PM), etc., seriously threaten human health and the ecological environment. Among them, when the concentration of CO in the emissions is high, suffocation may even occur.

Step 103: In a case where the current operating state information is the start state and the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions, control the engine of the vehicle to shut down.

In this step, after receiving the environmental information sent by the parking environment detection module of the vehicle and the current operating state information of the vehicle engine sent by the engine module of the vehicle, the main control module of the vehicle can use the current operating state information and the current operating state information. The environmental information controls the operating state of the vehicle engine.

Specifically, the main control module of the vehicle controls the engine of the vehicle to shut down when it is determined that the current operating state information is the start state and the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the main control module of the vehicle determines that the current operating state information of the vehicle engine is in the starting state, it means that the engine of the vehicle is in the starting state at this time, and the engine in the starting state is continuously threatening the user. Emissions from physical health and the ecological environment.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset environmental condition may be a pre-set confined space with a small area, such as a personal garage. The harmful emissions generated by the engine running under the starting state can only be reached when the concentration of harmful emissions reaches After a certain threshold, it will have a greater impact on the health of the user. Therefore, it is necessary to detect the current environmental information of the vehicle. Harmful emissions cannot be diluted by the air in the environment, nor can they be circulated in time under the action of airflow. Only the harmful emissions produced by the vehicle engine may endanger the health and personal safety of users.

Therefore, if the main control module of the vehicle determines that the current operating state information of the vehicle engine is in the starting state, and the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions, it indicates that the vehicle is in the starting state of harmful emissions produced by the engine at this time It may pose a threat to the user's health, and then control the vehicle engine to shut down to avoid excessively high emissions in the preset environment caused by the engine running in the preset environment, and to ensure the personal safety of the user in the preset environment.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the main control module 10 receives the current engine operating state information collected and sent by the engine module 20 of the vehicle, and receives the current environment information of the vehicle collected and sent by the parking environment detection module 30. The current operating state information is the startup state, and if the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions, an engine shutdown instruction is sent to the engine module 20, and the engine module 20 shuts down the engine after receiving the engine shutdown instruction , The engine is turned off.

In summary, the method and device for controlling a vehicle engine provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure include: acquiring information about the environment in which the vehicle is currently located; acquiring information about the current operating state of the vehicle engine; and when the current operating state information is the starting state, When the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions, the vehicle engine is controlled to shut down. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the main control module of the vehicle can continuously obtain information about the current environment of the vehicle and the current operating state information of the vehicle engine, and when it is detected that the vehicle engine is currently in the starting state and the vehicle is in a preset environmental condition The vehicle engine is controlled to be turned off at the time, so as to avoid the excessive concentration of emissions in the preset environment caused by the engine running in the preset environment, and to ensure the personal safety of users in the preset environment.

Referring to FIG. 3, there is shown a flow chart of another method for controlling a vehicle engine according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Step 201: Acquire environmental information where the vehicle is currently located.

For details of this step, refer to step 101 above, which will not be repeated here.

Step 202: Acquire current operating state information of the vehicle engine.

For details of this step, reference may be made to step 102 above, which will not be repeated here.

Step 203: Acquire the current driving speed of the vehicle.

In this step, the main control module of the vehicle can obtain the current driving speed of the vehicle through the speed sensor of the vehicle.

Step 204: In the case that the current operating state information is the startup state, the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions, and the current driving speed of the vehicle is zero, generate shutdown request information, and combine all The closing request information is sent to the mobile terminal.

In this step, the main control module of the vehicle receives the environmental information sent by the parking environment detection module of the vehicle, the current operating state information of the vehicle engine sent by the engine module of the vehicle, and the current driving speed of the vehicle sent by the speed sensor of the vehicle. After that, the operating state of the engine of the vehicle may be controlled according to the current operating state information, the environmental information, and the current driving speed of the vehicle.

Specifically, the main control module of the vehicle generates shutdown request information when it determines that the current operating state information is the startup state, the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions, and the current driving speed of the vehicle is zero , And send the closing request information to the mobile terminal.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset environmental condition may be a small confined space, such as a personal garage. The harmful emissions generated by the engine running under the starting state can only be reached when the concentration of harmful emissions reaches a certain threshold. After that, it will have a greater impact on the health of the user. Therefore, it is necessary to detect the current environmental information of the vehicle. Only when it is judged that the current environment of the vehicle is a small enclosed environment, the harmful emissions produced by the vehicle engine It cannot be diluted by the air in the environment, nor can it be circulated in time under the action of airflow. The harmful emissions produced by the vehicle engine may endanger the health and personal safety of users.

Further, it is also necessary to detect the current driving speed of the vehicle. If the current driving speed of the vehicle is not zero, it means that the vehicle is in a driving state at this time, and the user is driving the vehicle at the current driving speed. On the one hand, this If the engine of the vehicle is controlled to be turned off at the time, it will affect the normal driving of the user. On the other hand, the vehicle is in a driving state at this time, the air circulation is good, and the harmful emissions generated by the vehicle engine can circulate in time under the action of the airflow. , So as not to pose a threat to the user’s personal safety.

Optionally, the environmental information includes: the distance between obstacles around the vehicle and the vehicle, and the type of geographic location where the vehicle is currently located.

Correspondingly, the step of judging that the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions specifically includes:

In sub-step 2041, the distance between the obstacles around the vehicle and the vehicle is less than or equal to a preset distance, and the type of geographic location where the vehicle is currently located matches the preset geographic location type.

In this step, since the main control module of the vehicle needs to determine whether the environmental information of the vehicle meets the preset environmental condition, the preset environmental condition may be a small confined space, that is, it is judged whether the vehicle is currently in a relatively large area. In a small confined environment.

Specifically, judging whether the vehicle is currently in a closed environment with a small area can be based on the distance between the obstacles around the vehicle and the vehicle in the vehicle environment information, and the current location of the vehicle. The type of geographic location is judged.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the radar installed around the vehicle body can detect the obstacles around the vehicle and the distance between the obstacle and the vehicle. If the distance between them is less than or equal to the preset distance, it indicates that the vehicle is in a small space, where the preset distance may be 3 meters.

It should be noted that objects within a certain distance from the periphery of the vehicle can be defined as obstacles. For example, objects within 10 meters from the periphery of the vehicle are defined as obstacles. The radar installed around the vehicle body is used to detect obstacles within 10 meters of the vehicle. The object performs distance detection. If obstacles are detected within the preset distance in the four directions of the front, rear, left, and right of the vehicle, it means that the vehicle is in a small space at this time.

Further, the type of the current geographic location of the vehicle can be determined according to the global positioning system (Global Positioning System, GPS) of the vehicle and the on-board map in the vehicle. Specifically, the current geographic location of the vehicle can be determined according to the global positioning system of the vehicle. The location coordinates, combined with the on-board map in the vehicle, determine the type of geographic location corresponding to the geographic location coordinates, that is, the type of geographic location where the vehicle is currently located.

Since it is determined that the distance between the obstacles around the vehicle and the vehicle is less than or equal to the preset distance, indicating that the vehicle is in a small space, it is also necessary to determine that the small space is a closed space. Therefore, The preset geographic location type may be a building type, including non-open-air geographic location types such as residential type and office building type. If it is determined that the type of geographic location where the vehicle is currently located matches the preset geographic location type, It can be said that the vehicle is currently in a confined space with poor air circulation. At this time, the harmful emissions produced by the vehicle engine may endanger the health and personal safety of the user.

Therefore, if it is detected that the current operating state information is in the starting state, the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions, and the current driving speed of the vehicle is zero, it means that the vehicle is currently at a standstill in a small volume In a confined space with the engine turned on, it continuously produces emissions that threaten the safety of the user’s life. In order to ensure the user’s personal safety, further, generate a shutdown request message and send the shutdown request information to the mobile terminal for the user Obtain the current status of the vehicle through the mobile terminal.

Optionally, the step of generating closing request information includes:

Sub-step 2042, generating alarm information according to the environmental information and the current operating state information.

In this step, the main control module of the vehicle may generate alarm information according to the environmental information and the current operating state information.

As shown in Figure 2, when the main control module 10 of the vehicle detects that the current operating state information of the vehicle engine is in the starting state, and the environmental information meets the preset environmental conditions, it indicates that the vehicle is currently parked in a small enclosed area. In the space, and the engine is on, it continuously produces emissions that threaten the safety of the user’s life. To ensure the user’s personal safety, further alarm information can be generated and sent to the mobile terminal 50 for the user to move through The terminal obtains the current status of the vehicle.

Sub-step 2043: Send the alarm information to the mobile terminal.

In this step, as shown in FIG. 2, after generating alarm information, the main control module 10 of the vehicle sends the alarm information to the mobile terminal 50 through the vehicle networking module 40 in the vehicle.

4, there is shown a schematic diagram of an alarm information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. After receiving the alarm information, the mobile terminal displays it on the display screen of the mobile terminal. The alarm information may be "detected The car’s engine is emitting harmful emissions in a confined space, so that users can obtain the current status of the vehicle through a mobile terminal.

In sub-step 2044, in the case that a second ignore instruction returned by the mobile terminal for the alarm information is not received within a second preset time range, the shutdown request information is generated.

In this step, if the main control module of the vehicle does not receive the second ignore instruction returned by the mobile terminal for the alarm information within the second preset time range, further generate the shutdown request information, and execute step 205 .

If the main control module of the vehicle receives the second ignore instruction returned by the mobile terminal for the alarm information within the second preset time range, it means that the user has received the alarm information and chooses to ignore the alarm information. At this time, the control of the vehicle engine may be ended, or after a certain time interval, the control method of the vehicle engine in the present disclosure may be repeatedly executed.

4, while the mobile terminal displays the alarm information, the display interface of the mobile terminal may also include a "ignore this warning" button, if the mobile terminal detects a user input for the "ignore this warning" button Click the operation, it means that the user has received the warning message and chooses to ignore the warning message, therefore, the second ignore instruction is generated.

Step 205: The first ignore instruction returned by the mobile terminal for the shutdown request information is not received within the first preset time range, and the current operating state of the vehicle engine within the first preset time range When the information is still in the activated state, the vehicle engine is controlled to shut down.

In this step, if the main control module of the vehicle does not receive the first ignore instruction returned by the mobile terminal for the shutdown request information within the first preset time range, and the vehicle engine is within the first preset time range If the current operating status information is still in the activated state, it means that the user has not learned the current state of the vehicle through the mobile terminal receiving the shutdown request information, and shuts down the vehicle engine according to the shutdown request information. At this time, to ensure the user’s personal life Safe, the main control module of the vehicle can control the vehicle engine to shut down through the engine module.

5, there is shown a schematic diagram of a shutdown request information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The shutdown request information may be "It is detected that the engine of the vehicle is emitting harmful emissions in a confined space. Please turn off within 1 minute. Engine, otherwise the vehicle will automatically turn off the engine" so that the user can obtain the current status of the vehicle through the mobile terminal.

It should be noted that the vehicle main control module can send the warning information first, and then send the shutdown request information, through double confirmation operations, to avoid the vehicle master control module from shutting down the vehicle engine under certain circumstances only based on the user’s feedback on the shutdown request information , Thereby reducing the misjudgment operation to a certain extent.

Step 206: If the first ignore instruction is received within the first preset time range, control the vehicle engine to continue to be in the start state.

In this step, if the main control module of the vehicle receives the first ignore instruction returned by the mobile terminal for the closing request information within the first preset time range, it means that the user has received the closing request information. And choose to ignore the shutdown request information, at this time, the control of the vehicle engine can be ended, or after a certain interval of time, the control method of the vehicle engine in the present disclosure can be repeatedly executed.

5, while the mobile terminal displays the shutdown request information, the display interface of the mobile terminal may also include a "ignore this prompt" button, if the mobile terminal detects that the user input is directed to the "ignore this prompt" button Clicking operation means that the user has received the closing request message and chose to ignore the warning message, and therefore, the first ignore instruction is generated.
