Detailed Description

To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clear, the technical solutions of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments of the present application and the accompanying drawings. It should be apparent that the described embodiments are only a few embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

In the prior art, the control of the actuators on the vehicle is usually realized by a mechanical control mechanism on the steering wheel, joystick or center console. However, this mechanical control method is less intuitive and flexible.

In view of the above technical problems of the prior art, in some embodiments of the present application, there is provided a vehicle including: a first vehicle operating device, a second vehicle operating device, and a first vehicle actuator.

Wherein the first vehicle operating device may include: a mechanical control member; the second vehicle operation device may include a touch-operable display area. The mechanical control member is a control member that operates depending on a mechanical structure, for example, a device that operates depending on a mechanical structure such as a joystick, a knob, and a button. Typically, the second vehicle operating device has a display screen to facilitate user operation.

The cabin of the vehicle includes a first seat (i.e., a main seat), a second seat (i.e., a passenger seat), and an instrument desk, which are arranged side by side. Wherein, the instrument desk is provided with the windscreen below, and is relative with first seat and second seat. The mechanical operating members of the first vehicle operating device may be distributed at different locations on the instrument panel adjacent to the first seat and positioned for operation by the driver. As will be exemplified below. Wherein, the instrument desk is provided with a steering wheel and an instrument panel positioned behind the steering wheel at a position opposite to the first seat. A plurality of keys (namely mechanical operation and control parts) for controlling the vehicle are distributed on the steering wheel. An operating lever or a shifting lever is also arranged below the steering wheel, and the operating lever can be used as an operating piece for shifting operation, namely the operating lever can be used as a mechanical operating piece); the operating rod can be distributed with rotary buttons or keys (namely mechanical operating parts) so as to meet different operating requirements. In some scenes, mechanical operation and control parts such as a rotary switch, a key switch and the like which are independently distributed are also arranged on the instrument desk. For example, a headlight switch of a part of the vehicle is located on the instrument panel at a position below the left side of the steering wheel for the driver to operate nearby. For another example, in some vehicles, a double flashing light switch button is distributed at a middle position (a center console) on an instrument desk. The double-flashing-light switch key is located in the middle position, is obvious and is convenient for a user to operate.

The second vehicle operation device is mountable on the instrument panel at a position rearward of the steering wheel. In some embodiments, the steering wheel may be a half-round steering wheel or a "U" shaped steering wheel that may reduce the obstruction of the dashboard and the second vehicle operating device, making the driver's view clearer.

In some embodiments, the second vehicle operation device may be implemented as an in-vehicle terminal. The display area of the vehicle-mounted terminal faces the first seat and the second seat in the vehicle cabin, and the plane where the display area of the vehicle-mounted terminal is located is substantially consistent with the extending direction of the plane where the seat backs of the first seat and the second seat are located, and is substantially perpendicular to the direction of the vehicle head. Wherein the display area of the in-vehicle terminal extends at least continuously from the front of the first seat to the front of the second seat. In other words, the extension range of the display area of the in-vehicle terminal may just cover the range corresponding to the front of the first seat and the front of the second seat, or may exceed the range corresponding to the front of the first seat and the front of the second seat, which is not limited in this embodiment. For convenience of description, the occupant of the first seat and the occupant of the second seat are referred to as a first occupant and a second occupant, respectively. When the first occupant and the second occupant are sitting in the seats and are looking at the front of the vehicle or slightly below the front, the intersection of the display area of the in-vehicle terminal and the line of sight of the first occupant is denoted as a first intersection, the intersection of the display area of the in-vehicle terminal and the line of sight of the second occupant is denoted as a second intersection, and the display area of the in-vehicle terminal extends at least continuously from the first intersection to the second intersection, as shown in fig. 1.

In some embodiments, the width of the display device is at least greater than two-thirds of the width of the vehicle to meet the information acquisition needs of the occupants in the primary and secondary seats.

In some alternative embodiments, the relative distance of the first vehicle operating device to the primary seating of the vehicle may be less than the relative distance of the second vehicle operating device to the primary seating. Based on the layout mode, the mechanical control pieces on the first vehicle operation device can be reasonably distributed in the range easy for the main driver to operate, so that the main driver can conveniently control the vehicle through the first vehicle operation device in the driving process, and the safety in the driving process is favorably ensured.

The display area of the vehicle-mounted terminal can be dynamically divided into one or more sub-display areas according to the target user. The plurality of sub-display areas are obtained by dynamically dividing pixels in the display area, and are not obtained by physical screen splitting. When the target user is a single user, the display area may be divided into one or more sub-display areas according to the position or interaction requirement of the single target user. When the target user is a plurality of users, full-screen display or division into a plurality of sub-areas adapted to the plurality of users can be performed according to the positions or interaction requirements of the plurality of target users. Based on the region division mode, the vehicle-mounted terminal can flexibly and dynamically display the interactive content, and one screen is multipurpose.

The vehicle actuator refers to a device in a vehicle for executing a user action. Vehicle actuators include, but are not limited to: the present invention is not limited to at least one of a vehicle lamp (a headlight, a fog light, a dome light, a warning light, a signal light, etc.), a wiper, a door, a window, a wheel, a hood, a fuel tank cap, and a charging cap. Wherein the first vehicle actuator refers to any one of the vehicle actuators.

Wherein the vehicle actuator is controllable by the first vehicle operating device and the second vehicle operating device. Here, the "first" and "second" are used to define the operation devices only for distinguishing different operation devices, and are not used to define the installation positions, operation sequences, and the like of the operation devices.

Technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a vehicle provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 1, an electronic device may include a first vehicle operating device 101, a second vehicle operating device 102, and a first vehicle actuator 103.

The first vehicle operating device 101 may include a plurality of mechanical control elements, and the plurality of mechanical control elements are used to control different actuators or different functions of the same actuator. The following embodiments will be exemplified by taking any one of the actuators as an example. For ease of description and distinction, any of the actuators will be described as the first actuator.

In the present embodiment, the user may perform a first operation on the mechanical manipulation member on the first vehicle operation device 101 to control the first vehicle actuator 103. Wherein the mechanical operation control of the first vehicle operation device may include: a key on the steering wheel, a key on the joystick under the steering wheel, or a key on the vehicle center console. The first operation may be a long press, a short press, or a toggle operation, and the embodiment is not limited. For example, a user may initiate an operation on a wiper key on a steering wheel to control the operating state of a wiper blade. For example, a user may initiate an operation on any of the vehicle light keys on the joystick to control the operating state of the vehicle light.

Accordingly, the first vehicle operating device 101 may control the first vehicle actuator 103 into the first operating state in response to the first operation. The first operating state is understood to be an open state of the first vehicle actuator or a state in which the first vehicle actuator is in a specific operating mode after being opened.

For example, in connection with an actual scene, a user may perform a short-press operation on a key K1 on a steering wheel to control a wiper (i.e., the first vehicle actuator 103). The first operating device 101 may control the wiper to enter a wiping state in response to the short-press operation, where the wiping state is a first working state. For another example, the user may rotate the key K2 on the joystick to control the vehicle lamp. The first vehicle operating device 101 can control the headlights to turn on and enter a low beam state in response to the rotating operation, and the low beam state is the first operating state of the headlights.

In this embodiment, the first operation of the user may wake up the electronic control system corresponding to the second vehicle operation device 102, in addition to the control of the first vehicle actuator by the mechanical control system of the first vehicle operation device 101, so as to assist the control of the first vehicle actuator by the electronic control system.

Accordingly, the second vehicle operation device 102 may present at least one control on a display area of the second vehicle operation device 102 in response to the first operation. Wherein the at least one control is for controlling the first vehicle actuator 103.

The second vehicle operating device 102 may control the first vehicle actuator to enter a second operating state corresponding to the target control from the first operating state in response to the triggering operation of the target control of the at least one control.

The second operating state is different from the first operating state, and the second operating state may be a closed state, or an operating state in which the first vehicle actuator is in a specific operating mode. In other words, the user may complete control of the first vehicle actuator 103 by interacting with the at least one control to switch the first vehicle actuator 103 from the first operating state to the second operating state.

The description continues with the previous example. The second vehicle operating device 102 may present at least one control of the wiper in response to a user's short-press operation of a key K1 on the steering wheel. Optionally, the at least one control may include: one or more of a left gear shifting control, a right gear shifting control, a switch control, an automatic gear opening control and a gear selection control.

If the user's trigger operation on the switch control is detected, the second vehicle operating device 102 may control the wiper to enter the off state (i.e., the second operating state). If the triggering operation of the user on the gear shifting control (the left gear shifting control or the right gear shifting control) is detected, the second vehicle operating device 102 may control the wiper to switch to the working state corresponding to the corresponding working gear (i.e., the second working state).

For another example, the second vehicle operating device 102 may present at least one control of a vehicle light in response to a user rotating a key K2 on the joystick. Optionally, the at least one control of the vehicle light may comprise: and at least one of an illumination mode switching control and a switch control of the vehicle lamp. For example, control controls for headlights include: the high beam mode switching control, the low beam mode switching control and the opening/closing control. The control of the fog lamp comprises: the front fog lamp switching control, the rear fog lamp switching control and the opening/closing control. The control of the dome lamp comprises: brightness adjustment control, light source selection control, on/off control, color temperature selection control, etc., which are not described in detail.

Taking the headlights as an example, if the triggering operation of the headlight control by the user is detected, the second vehicle operating device 102 may switch the headlights from the low beam state (the first operating state) to the high beam state (the second operating state). If the trigger operation of the fog lamp control by the user is detected, the second vehicle operating device 102 may control the fog lamp to switch from the off state (the first operating state) to the on state (i.e., the second operating state). Are not listed one by one.

In some embodiments, the second vehicle operating device 102 may be triggered to display the control controls corresponding to all the lights for the operation of the key corresponding to any one of the lights, considering the number of lights on the vehicle. For example, when the user turns on the low beam mode of the headlights by rotating the headlight button, the second vehicle operating device 102 may display control controls of the headlights, fog lights, dome lights, warning lights, signal lights, etc. for the user to operate.

In this embodiment, the vehicle actuator may be controlled to enter the first operating state in response to an operation directed to a mechanical control on the first vehicle operating device, and at least one control for controlling the first vehicle actuator may be presented on the display area of the second vehicle operating device in response to the operation. Wherein the first vehicle operating device includes: the mechanical operation control piece and the second vehicle operation device comprise a display area capable of being operated in a touch mode. Vehicles may provide users with a variety of control strategies based on a variety of different types of operating devices. The control in the touch control display area can assist the mechanical control piece, so that the operability of actuator control can be improved based on the intuitiveness and the intelligent characteristics of the display area of the second vehicle operation device, and the control operation of the vehicle is more flexible.

In addition, the actuator of the vehicle is controlled based on the control provided by the second vehicle operation device, so that the vehicle actuator can be completely and accurately controlled while the dependence on the mechanical control in the cab is reduced. On one hand, the loss of the mechanical control piece can be reduced, and the service life of the mechanical control piece is prolonged.

It is also worth mentioning that in some embodiments, the distribution position and the distribution number of the mechanical manipulation members in the conventional vehicle may be simplified based on the second vehicle operation device. For example, when a semicircular steering wheel or a "U" type steering wheel is disposed on a vehicle, it is not necessary to dispose a both-side deflector rod on the semicircular steering wheel or the "U" type steering wheel. The control function corresponding to the shift lever can be replaced by a touch control displayed in the second vehicle operation device.

Alternatively, the conventional key mounted on the stick may be replaced by a touch control shown in the second vehicle operating device. For example, the multiple types of light switching keys on the shift lever can be replaced by one light opening key on the steering wheel and multiple touch control type light switching controls on the vehicle-mounted terminal. When the vehicle runs at night, the user presses the light starting button on the steering wheel, the headlamp can be turned on, and the vehicle-mounted terminal can be triggered to display the light type switching control. The user can switch the light type through the light type switching control displayed by the vehicle-mounted terminal. Furthermore, the touch intelligent surface provided by the second vehicle operation device and the intelligent driving indicator lamp provided by the vehicle realize the control functions corresponding to the traditional shift lever and the keys on the shift lever.

Furthermore, the hardware structure of the steering wheel is lighter, the operation logic of the entity key can be simplified, and the memory difficulty of the user on the operation logic of the mechanical operation control piece is simplified.

Based on the description of the above embodiment, after the second vehicle operation device 102 displays at least one control on the display area thereof, the user may select any control from the at least one control in the display area as a target control and trigger the at least one control to control the first vehicle actuator 103 to switch the operating state. The second vehicle operation device 102 may provide a variety of control modes based on various human-machine interaction interfaces, which will be described as an example below.

In some optional embodiments, the triggering operation for the target control includes: and performing screen touch operation aiming at the target control. In such an embodiment, the second vehicle operating device 102 may include a screen, which may include a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and a Touch Panel (TP). Based on this, the screen may be implemented as a touch screen to receive an input signal from a user. The touch panel includes one or more touch sensors to sense touch, slide, and gestures on the touch panel. The touch sensor may not only sense the boundary of a touch or slide action, but also detect the duration and pressure associated with the touch or slide operation.

Alternatively, the second vehicle operating device 102 may provide continuous state control operation of the actuator based on a screen touch operation. The description will be continued with the wiper blade as an example.

In some alternative embodiments, the second vehicle operating device 102 may present a left shift control and/or a right shift control corresponding to a wiper in response to operation of a button of the wiper. The second vehicle operation device 102 controls the wiper to enter the second working state corresponding to the target control from the first working state in response to the triggering operation of the target control, and the method can be implemented based on the following steps:

s1, responding to a long press operation on a left gear shifting control or a right gear shifting control, and determining the gear span of the windscreen wiper according to the duration of the long press operation.

And S2, continuously switching the gears of the windscreen wiper according to the gear span of the windscreen wiper.

The second vehicle operation device 102 may preset a corresponding relationship between the length of the screen according to the operation and the gear span, for example, 1s corresponds to the gear span of one gear, 2s corresponds to the gear span of two gears, and 3s corresponds to the gear span of three gears. The second vehicle operating device 102 may determine the shift span of the wiper blade according to the preset correspondence and the length of the long press operation. Furthermore, the gear of the windscreen wiper can be continuously switched according to the gear span of the windscreen wiper. For example, if the left shift control is pressed for a long time and the shift range spans two shift ranges, the second vehicle operating device 102 may continuously switch the shift range of the wiper from the fourth shift range to the second shift range; for another example, if the right shift control is pressed for a long time and the shift range spans two shift ranges, the second vehicle operating device 102 may continuously shift the shift range of the wiper blade from the second shift range to the fourth shift range.

In this way, the user can quickly and continuously switch the respective working states of various actuators on the vehicle.

In other alternative embodiments, the triggering operation for the target control includes: and triggering the operation by voice. In such an embodiment, the second vehicle operating device 102 may include a microphone assembly for capturing voice signals. The microphone assembly may be in a silent acquisition state after the second vehicle operation device 102 is powered on, or may enter an acquisition state after the second vehicle operation device 102 displays the at least one control, which is not limited in this embodiment.

Based on the above embodiment, the user can select any one of the control controls from the at least one control displayed by the second vehicle operation device 102 in a voice form as a target control and trigger the control, and can also select any one of the control controls from the at least one control in a touch form in the display area of the second vehicle operation device 102 as a target control and trigger the control, which is more convenient and flexible.

In some alternative embodiments, the second vehicle operating device 102 may communicate with an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) on the vehicle for controlling the actuator to implement the Control of the actuator.

Optionally, when the second vehicle operation device 102 responds to the trigger operation on the target control and controls the first vehicle actuator to enter the second working state corresponding to the target control from the first working state, the second vehicle operation device may respond to the trigger operation on the target control, generate a control signal according to the type of the target control, and send the control signal to the electronic control unit corresponding to the first vehicle actuator.

And when the target controls are different, the generated control signals are also different. For example, taking a wiper as an example, when the target control is a closing control of a front windshield wiper, a control signal for closing the front windshield wiper may be generated and sent to an ECU for controlling the wiper. For another example, when the target control is a high beam switching control of a vehicle lamp, a low beam turn-off signal and a high beam turn-on signal may be generated and sent to an ECU for controlling the vehicle lamp.

Accordingly, the ECU can control the first vehicle actuator to enter a second working state corresponding to the target control from the first working state according to the received control signal.

In this way, the different types of target controls can be controlled in a targeted manner based on the different control signals corresponding to the different types of target controls.

In some alternative embodiments, the mechanical controls on the first vehicle operating device 101 include a plurality of mechanical controls for controlling different actuators, respectively. When any mechanical control element is triggered, the second vehicle control device 102 may display a control interface corresponding to the mechanical control element, and display the control element on the control interface. The description is continued by taking the first operation of any one of the mechanical operation members of the first vehicle operation device 101 as an example.

Optionally, the second vehicle operation device 102 may be preset with a rendering file of a control interface corresponding to each of the plurality of mechanical control elements on the first vehicle operation device 101.

In response to the first operation, the second vehicle operating device 102 may determine, from rendering files of each of the preset plurality of mechanical manipulation parts, a target rendering file corresponding to the operated mechanical manipulation part. For example, the rendering files of the five keys K1 to K5 preset in the second vehicle operation device are T1 to T5, where the key K5 is an operated key, and the target rendering file is the rendering file T5 of the key K5.

Thereafter, the second vehicle operating device 102 may render the control interface of the first vehicle actuator in the display area of the second vehicle operating device according to the target rendering file. The control interface may include: at least one control for controlling a first vehicle actuator.

The following description will be made with reference to examples. It is assumed that a plurality of vehicle light control keys (e.g., a high beam key, a low beam key, a wide beam key, etc.), a plurality of wiper control keys (e.g., a front windshield wiper key, a rear windshield wiper key, etc.) are included on the joystick. The second vehicle operation device 102 prestores rendering files corresponding to the plurality of vehicle light control keys and rendering files corresponding to the plurality of wiper control keys. The second vehicle operating device 102 may read the rendering file corresponding to the high beam key in response to the operation of the high beam key, and display the control interface corresponding to the high beam. The control interface corresponding to the high beam may include a control for turning on/off the high beam, and may further include a control for switching the type of the car light, which is not limited in this embodiment. The user can carry out the on/off control of high beam through the control interface that the high beam corresponds, perhaps, accessible car light type switching controlling part switches the high beam into passing light.

The second vehicle operating device 102 can read a rendered file corresponding to a windshield wiper key in response to an operation on the windshield wiper key, and display a control interface corresponding to the windshield wiper. The control interface corresponding to the windscreen wiper can comprise an opening/closing control of the windscreen wiper and a windscreen wiper gear switching control.

In this way, the control interface corresponding to the mechanical manipulation member can be rendered in the display area of the second vehicle manipulation device based on the rendering file of the manipulated mechanical manipulation member. Different rendering files can be configured in advance for different mechanical control elements so as to provide differentiated interactive control interfaces for different actuators. Wherein the rendering file can be dynamically updated. The second vehicle operating device 102 may obtain the dynamically updated rendering file from the server, thereby providing a richer way of in-vehicle interaction control to the user.

In some optional embodiments, the second vehicle operation device 102 is further configured to: and displaying the three-dimensional model of the vehicle on a display interface. The three-dimensional model of the vehicle comprises actuator models corresponding to a plurality of vehicle actuators. For example, a car light model, a wiper model, a door model, and the like.

Accordingly, the second vehicle operating device 102 may display a floating window on the same screen as the three-dimensional model of the vehicle when displaying the control interface of the first vehicle actuator on the display area, and display the control interface of the first vehicle actuator in the floating window, as shown in fig. 2. In the illustration of fig. 2, the three-dimensional model is displayed in a sub-display area of the vehicle-mounted terminal, and a floating window is displayed on the same screen as the vehicle-mounted terminal, and the floating window displays a control interface of the wiper, and the control interface may include a left shift control and a right shift control of the wiper.

Based on this, the second vehicle operation device 102 may determine a target actuator model corresponding to the first vehicle actuator from the three-dimensional model of the vehicle in the process of controlling the first vehicle actuator to enter the second operating state, and control the target actuator model to simulate a dynamic effect of switching from the first operating state to the second operating state.
