需要说明的是,在不冲突的情况下,本申请中的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互组合。下面将参考附图并结合实施例来详细说明本申请。
如图1所示,本申请提供了一种确定婴儿车的运动姿态的方法,该方法包括:
步骤S1,测量待测物体在多个方向上的加速度值。其中,所述待测物体优选地为婴儿车。
在该步骤中,本申请通过设置在婴儿车上的一个或多个加速度传感器来检测所述婴儿车的加速度值,优选地,可以通过设置在婴儿车上的多个加速度传感器来分别检测所述婴儿车在多个方向上的加速度值。
在一些实施例中,在每个测量循环中,本申请首先读取婴儿车上的加速度 传感器在x,y,z轴上的测量值并分别存放在存储于寄存器中的队列xQueue、yQueue、zQueue中,每个队列的长度设为n(在一些实例中n取128),每当有一个新的测量值到来,将队列进行移位,最早的测量值从队列尾部移出,新的测量值加到队首,将所述新的测量值作为多个方向上的加速度值。
步骤S2,对所述待测物体在多个方向上的加速度值进行时域-频域数据转换,得到每个方向上的频域数据的幅值。
具体的,在测量出每个方向上的加速的度测量值之后,本申请将分别存放在存储于寄存器中的队列xQueue、yQueue、zQueue中的值进行时域-频域转换处理。
优选地,在一些实施例中,为了便于应用单片机/微处理器进行计算处理,本申请使用离散傅里叶变换(DFT,Discrete Fourier Transform)进行处理,更优选地,在一些实例中,本申请使用快速傅里叶变换处理(FFT,Fast Fourier Transformation)对所述寄存器中的队列xQueue、yQueue、zQueue中的值进行处理。
通过离散傅里叶变换、使用整型算法进行处理,能够将时域的采样信号转化到频域,以便于对信号特征进行分析。
之后,在步骤S3,本申请将每个方向上的频域数据的幅值与预先确定的相应方向上的基准值进行比较,并且根据比较的结果确定待测物体的状态。
具体的,本申请在将经由上述的傅里叶变换结果进行标准化后,对标准化后的数据计算各个频率点的幅值,并且根据计算出的据频域数据的幅值与预先确定基准值进行比较,优选地,可以根据计算出的据频域数据的幅值与相应方向上,例如对应于上面所描述的加速度传感器在x,y,z轴上的方向上的预先确定的基准值进行比较。随后,本申请根据具体的比较结果来确定婴儿车的倾斜姿态和运动状态。
进一步的,在一些实施例中,该运动姿态确定方法中的步骤S3“将每个方向上的频域数据的幅值与预先确定的相应方向上的基准值进行比较,并且根据比较的结果确定待测物体的状态”包括:
将所述每个方向上的频域数据中的直流分量的幅值与预先确定的相应方向上的倾斜判定基准值进行比较,并且根据比较的结果确定待测物体的倾斜状态。
在一些实施例中,经过离散傅里叶变换后得到直流分量(DFT结果中的第一个值,频率为零点处的幅值),该直流分量的值反映出加速度传感器测量值的平均值,该直流分量与对应方向的预先确定的倾斜判定基准值之差即反映待测物体向各个方向的倾斜情况。其中所述倾斜判定基准值是当待测物体处于水平静止状态下测量得到的基准值,后面将结合图2进行详细描述。
在一些实施例中,该运动姿态确定方法中的步骤S3“将每个方向上的频域数据的幅值与预先确定的相应方向上的基准值进行比较,并且根据比较的结果确定待测物体的状态”包括:
计算所述每个方向上的频域数据的幅值总和,将所述幅值总和与预先确定的相应方向上的运动判定阈值进行比较,并且当计算得到的幅值总和大于所述运动判定阈值时确定所述待测物体处于运动状态。
上述幅值总和是在使用离散傅里叶变换进行时域-频域转换的情况下,计算所有频率点的幅值之和所得的数值;另外在使用其他傅里叶变化方法的情况下,该幅值总和可以对应于频率范围内的幅值曲线的积分。
当待测物体处于静止状态时,加速度传感器本身具有测量噪声,DFT变换后各个频率点都有较小的幅值,幅值总和较小,而当待测物体(例如背景技术中提到的手推婴儿车)运动时,由于路面不平、颠簸等造成各个频率点的幅值总和增大。在一些实施例中可以将在静止状态下获得的频域数据的幅值总和的均值用作上述运动判定阈值,并存储在存储器中。当实时获得的频域数据幅值总和大于该运动判定阈值时,即可判定待测物体处于运动状态,并且还能够反映出路面不平整等情况。
在一些实施例中,该运动姿态确定方法还包括:
计算所述每个方向上的频域数据中的低频分量与所述幅值总和的比值,将所述比值与预先确定的相应方向上的加速判定阈值进行比较,并且当计算得到 的比值大于所述加速判定阈值时确定所述待测物体处于加速或减速状态。
计算每个方向上的频域数据中的低频分量与上述幅值总和之比,可以获得频域幅值中的低频占比,该低频占比能够反映出低频占比反映出待测物体的加速度缓慢变化情况,其中低频占比较高的情况表明待测物体处于加速或减速状态。上述加速判定阈值为根据实际情况测量得到的低频占比数值,当实时获得的低频占比高于该阈值时即可判定待测物体处于加速或减速状态,换句话说,当低频占比高于阈值时可以确定待测物体具有值得警惕的加速度。
在一些实施例中,根据该运动姿态确定方法,在所述测量待测物体在多个方向上的加速度值的步骤之前,该方法还包括:
在所述待测物体处于水平状态时测量多个方向上的加速度值,计算每个方向上的加速度值的平均值并将所述平均值用作相应方向上的倾斜判定基准值。
由于在将运动姿态确定装置安装到待测物体上时存在一定的安装误差,每一次安装时,加速度传感器各个坐标轴的方向都存在差异,因此需要在安装完成后将待测物体放置于水平的平台上对其进行校准,确定加速度传感器的初始状态。具体校准流程如图2所示,描述如下:
(1)校准按键触发校准开始;
(2)读取加速度传感器x、y、z轴的测量值,分别存放于缓存中,例如X轴的缓存BuffX[n]、Y轴的缓存BuffY[n]、Z轴的缓存BuffZ[n]中,其中n为校准所需读取的传感器测量值数量,在一些实例中可以取1024;
(3)判断读取是否结束,如果未结束,重复(2)进行读取,否则进行下一步;
(4)分别计算x、y、z轴测量值的最大值与最小值之差,例如,X轴的差xDiff、Y轴的差yDiff、Z轴的差zDiff
(5)分别将xDiff、yDiff、zDiff与预先设定好的最大变化阈值T进行比较,如果有一个差值超过T则校准失败,重新执行步骤(2)。其中最大变化阈值T为根据加速度传感器测量噪声设定的一个值,取测量噪声的2倍,如果xDiff、yDiff、zDiff中的至少一个超过该值,则表明当前待测物体处于不稳定 状态,应该重新放置水平并校准;
(6)计算x、y、z轴测量值的平均值,例如,X轴的平均值xAvg、Y轴的平均值yAvg、Z轴的平均值zAvg;
(7)将xAvg、yAvg、zAvg作为倾斜判定基准值保存起来,用于在测量时将实时获得的加速度值与对应方向的倾斜判定基准值进行比较以确定待测物体的倾斜姿态;
(8)校准结束。

所述接近感测单元120构造为用于检测用户的手握状态。具体的,所述接近感测单元120包括接近感应传感器,例如电容式接近感应传感器,并且所述 接近感测单元12可以安装在婴儿车的把手或其他任意适合手握的位置(如图5所示)。该接近感测单元120用于检测是否有物体(例如人手)手握或者接近婴儿车,并将指示该手握或接近状态的手握状态信号发送至刹车控制装置。该接近感测单元120可以包括无线传输模块,以用于将手握状态信号通过无线传输的方式发送至刹车控制装置。

在一些实施例中,该时域-频域转换电路包括数字信号处理器(DSP),该DSP构造为能够执行离散傅里叶变换(DFT)处理或者执行快速傅里叶变换(FFT)处理。或者可替代的,任何能够执行连续傅里叶变换处理的电路构造 均适用于用作上述时域-频域转换电路。
在一些实施例中,上述比较器电路能够将时域-频域转换电路的输出数据与预先存储的基准值进行比较,并输出指示待测物体的倾斜姿态或运动状态的信号。

所述刹车控制装置140构造为基于所述手握状态和所述运动姿态的检测结果,控制所述刹车机构执行自动刹车。如果检测出用户未对所述婴儿车处于手握的状态,例如,用户的手离开婴儿车,或者离开婴儿车的预设手握位置,且婴儿车处于运动的姿态,则说明婴儿车处于不安全的运动状态,此时,通过刹车控制装置控制刹车机构执行自动刹车。
进一步的,所述刹车控制装置140构造为基于所述手握状态和所述运动姿态的检测结果以及用户设定的刹车模式,来控制所述刹车机构执行自动刹车。具体的,所述用户设定的刹车模式可以包括但不限于:关闭自动刹车的第一刹车模式、根据所述手握状态执行自动刹车的第二刹车模式、以及根据所述手握状态和所述运动姿态的检测结果来执行自动刹车的第三刹车模式。
上述刹车模式包括关闭自动刹车的第一刹车模式,仅根据所述手握状态执行自动刹车的第二刹车模式,以及根据所述手握状态和所述运动姿态的检测结果来执行自动刹车的第三刹车模式。
刹车模式可以由用户切换,总共有三种刹车模式。其中在第一刹车模式下,电子刹车功能关闭,没有自动刹车的功能,主要适用于不习惯使用自动刹车的人群,例如老人,因此可以关闭自动刹车,仍使用婴儿车自身的手动刹车功能。 第二刹车模式为自动刹车模式,在第二刹车模式下,仅判断婴儿车是否处于手握状态,当检测到手放置到婴儿车把手或者其他适当位置上时,刹车解刹,当检测到手离开手把,刹车刹住;第三刹车模式为智能防护模式,在这种模式下,如果判断周围环境不安全会自动刹车,正常使用时不会自动刹车,这样可以提升用户的体验。
针对第三刹车模式,具体的,本申请将检测如下异常情况(不安全的情况):斜坡检测,如果手离开手把,并且婴儿车处于斜坡的情况下,则判定婴儿车处于倾斜状态,此时刹车控制装置140控制执行刹车(防止溜坡,以及自动扶梯上出现下滑等情况);运动检测,在平地上,如果手松开,且车体还在运动,则判定婴儿车处于运动状态,例如高铁或地铁的急刹车、快速推行时突然的松手都会产生这种情况,此时刹车控制装置140控制执行刹车。
在婴儿车的日常应用场景中,刹车控制装置140根据用户所设定的刹车模式、当前是否处于手握把手状态、婴儿车车体是否处于倾斜状态、是否处于运动状态、运动速度是否过快等来确定相应的刹车动作。
上述三种刹车模式的两种示例切换方式如下:
(1)用户通过设置在婴儿车车体上的按钮切换;
(2)用户通过智能设备(例如手机,IPAD等)上的APP连接刹车控制装置140,并在该智能设备上通过APP切换刹车模式。
如图6和图7所示,在一个实施例中在婴儿车把手上设置了刹车模式切换按钮,通过按下右侧的按键“刹车模式”就可以切换刹车模式,按键旁边有4个LED灯,分别为“APP”、“关闭”、“自动”、“智能”。其中“APP”LED灯亮表示当前有手机APP连接刹车控制装置140,可以在APP中设置刹车模式,“关闭”LED灯亮表示当前处于电子刹车关闭模式(即前述第一刹车模式),“自动”LED灯亮表明当前处于自动刹车模式(即前述第二刹车模式),“智能”LED灯亮表明当前处于智能防护模式(即前述第三刹车模式)。
下面对一些实施例中的电子刹车关闭模式、自动刹车模式、智能防护模式的工作过程进行说明。
电子刹车关闭模式:此模式下电子刹车功能关闭,可以使用传统推车的手动刹车功能;进一步地,还可以使得运动速度检测功能开启,如果运动速度过快会产生报警(语音提示和警示灯)。
自动刹车模式:接近感测单元检测到有人手握把手,将检测结果通过无线传输的方式发送给刹车控制装置140,刹车控制装置140控制刹车机构110执行解刹,此时推车可以正常推行。同时,如果运动速度过快会产生报警(语音提示和警示灯)。当接近感测单元检测到人手离开后,将检测结果通过无线传输的方式发送给刹车控制装置140,刹车控制装置140控制刹车机构110执行刹车,将婴儿车刹住。
智能防护模式:接近感测单元检测到有人手握把手时,与自动刹车模式一致,婴儿车可以直接推行。当接近感测单元检测到人手离开后,刹车控制装置140控制刹车机构110保持解刹状态,并检测当前婴儿车是否处于斜坡以及是否有运动,如果处于斜坡或者婴儿车仍然在运动这两个条件满足至少一个就会执行刹车操作,将婴儿车刹住,如果任一条件均不符合则不会执行刹车。此模式可以避免推行过程中由于用户松手导致频繁刹车和解刹,能够提供更好的用户体验。
在如图7所示的实施例中,左侧按键是电源键,长按关机、短按开机。左侧的4个LED起到电量显示作用,其旁边的数字含义为电池当前剩余电量百分比。

下面结合具体实施例详细描述上述步骤S21至步骤S23。
在步骤S21中,通过接近感测单元检测用户的手握状态,也就是说,本申请通过感测单元检测用户的手是否位于婴儿车的预设位置,例如,检测手握状态可以是检测用户的手是否握在婴儿车的预设位置上,优选地,检测用户的手 是否握在婴儿车的手把(扶手)上,进一步地,检测用户的手是否握在婴儿车的手把上的预设位置。进一步的,所述接近感测单元包括电容式接近感应传感器,并且所述电容式接近感应传感器可以安装在婴儿车的把手或其他任意适合手握的位置。该电容式接近感应传感器可以检测是否有物体(例如人手)手握或者接近婴儿车,当用户的手握在婴儿车的手把(扶手)上时,所述电容式接近感应传感器感测到婴儿车的手把(扶手)被手把持,并且将该手握状态信号发送至控制器,以进行进一步的处理。
在步骤S22中,本申请通过运动姿态确定装置确定婴儿车当前的运动姿态,所述婴儿车的当前运动姿态可以由下面的实施例来确定:
作为本申请的一个实施例,可以确定婴儿车当前是否处于加速运动的姿态,进而确定婴儿车当前是否处于运动的姿态。进一步的,本申请通过设置在婴儿车上的一个或多个加速度传感器来检测所述婴儿车的加速度值,从而根据所述加速度值来确定婴儿车当前是否处于加速运动的姿态。更进一步的,本申请可以通过设置在婴儿车上的多个加速度传感器来分别检测所述婴儿车在多个方向上的加速度值,从而根据所述多个加速度值来确定婴儿车当前是否处于加速运动的姿态。
作为本申请的又一实施例,所述婴儿车当前的运动姿态可以通过本申请上面所描述的运动姿态确定装置10来进行确定,例如,利用上面所描述的加速度测量装置20来测量如婴儿车在多个方向上的加速度值、利用上面所描述的时域-频域转换装置30对所述婴儿车在多个方向上的加速度值进行时域-频域数据转换以得到每个方向上的频域数据的幅值,以及利用上面所描述的比较判定装置40将每个方向上的频域数据的幅值与预先确定的相应方向上的基准值进行比较,并且根据比较的结果来确定所述婴儿车的运动状态。
作为本申请的另一实施例,可以通过本申请上面所描述的运动姿态确定方法来确定婴儿车的当前运动姿态,例如,图1所示的确定婴儿车的运动姿态的方法,具体的,所述确定婴儿车的运动姿态的方法可以包括:步骤S1,测量待测物体,例如婴儿车在多个方向上的加速度值;步骤S2,对所述婴儿车在 多个方向上的加速度值进行时域-频域数据转换,得到每个方向上的频域数据的幅值。以及步骤S3,将每个方向上的频域数据的幅值与预先确定的相应方向上的基准值进行比较,并且根据比较的结果确定所述婴儿车的运动状态。
在确定了婴儿车当前的运动姿态之后,本申请继续执行步骤S23:基于手握状态和运动姿态的检测结果,通过刹车控制装置控制刹车机构执行自动刹车。
如果检测出用户未对所述婴儿车处于手握的状态,例如,用户的手离开婴儿车,或者离开婴儿车的预设手握位置,且婴儿车处于运动的姿态,则说明婴儿车处于不安全的运动状态,此时,通过刹车控制装置控制刹车机构执行自动刹车。
可选地,以上,当检测出用户未对所述婴儿车处于手握的状态,且婴儿车处于预设的运动姿态,或者,婴儿车的运动姿态满足预设条件,则自动控制婴儿车执行刹车的模式可以是用户可设置的,即,用户可以预先设置该种情况(当检测出用户未对所述婴儿车处于手握的状态,且婴儿车处于预设的运动姿态,或者,婴儿车的运动姿态满足预设条件)下,是否需要执行自动刹车。此时,基于手握状态和运动姿态的检测结果,通过刹车控制装置控制刹车机构执行自动刹车包括:基于手握状态和运动姿态的检测结果以及用户设定的刹车模式,通过刹车控制装置控制刹车机构执行自动刹车,也即,如果用户预先设置了在检测出用户未对所述婴儿车处于手握的状态,且婴儿车处于预设的运动姿态,或者,婴儿车的运动姿态满足预设条件的情况下需要执行自动刹车,则在这样的情况下控制婴儿车自动刹车,如果用户预先设置了在检测出用户未对所述婴儿车处于手握的状态,且婴儿车处于预设的运动姿态,或者,婴儿车的运动姿态满足预设条件的情况下不需要执行自动刹车,则在该种情况下不控制婴儿车执行自动刹车。
在一些实施例中,通过接近感测单元检测用户的手握状态的步骤S21进一步包括:本申请获得所述接近感测单元处的温度。具体的,本申请可以利用温度获取装置,例如温度计或者温度传感器来获取接近感测单元处的温度。此外,本申请根据所获得的温度对所述接近感测单元的测量值进行温度补偿。具体的, 本申请可以利用上面所描述的补偿电路根据所获得的温度对接近感测单元的测量值进行温度补偿。最后,本申请基于所述接近感测单元的温度补偿后的测量值确定手握状态。具体的,本申请可以利用上面所描述的检测电路基于接近感测单元的温度补偿后的测量值确定手握状态。
在一些实施例中,通过运动姿态确定装置确定所述婴儿车当前的运动姿态的步骤S22进一步包括:测量所述婴儿车在多个方向上的加速度值;对所述婴儿车在多个方向上的加速度值进行时域-频域数据转换,得到每个方向上的频域数据的幅值;以及将每个方向上的频域数据的幅值与预先确定的相应方向上的基准值进行比较,并且根据比较的结果确定婴儿车当前的运动姿态。

此外,在所述第二无线通讯装置中还包括双模蓝牙通讯模块,其与外设装置4(例如,用户的手机等移动设备或者台式机或服务器等台式设备)进行通讯连接。
本申请采用BLE主从方案,可以是一主多从,构成星型网络,当婴儿车中增加其他传感器模块,可以对网络进行扩展(例如将先用的一主二从扩展到一主三从等);当婴儿车功能较简单(例如,只用智能刹车功能),也可以是一主一从的方式,形成点对点的传输方式。
此外,本申请的组网方案不仅限于使用BLE,使用2.4G的私有协议也可以实现该方案(例如使用NORDIC公司的2.4G芯片nRF24L01)。当精简为一对一的连接时,可以使用433M,SUB1G等方式来实现。不采用BLE时,配对时使用的MAC地址由芯片的唯一标识码替代。
以各个无线通讯装置为BLE,并采用主BLE-从BLE的组网方式为例。
手把模块位于婴儿车的手把上,实现推行检测、环境检测和系统人机交互的功能。手把模块上有:BLE(主),作为Master(主模式)与其他模块之间建立连接,进行数据传输;接近传感器,用于检测是否有人握住把手,即推行检测;温/湿度传感器,用于检测环境温湿度;空气质量传感器,用于检测环境空气质量;按键/LED灯,用于实现对婴儿车各模块的控制和状态显示,即 系统人机交互。
主控模块位于婴儿车的两个后轮之间,用于实现推车斜坡检测,异常运动检测,手机APP交互,音乐播放,智能刹车等功能。主控模块上有:BLE(从),作为Slave(从模式)与手把模块进行连接,进行数据传输;双模蓝牙模块,用于和手机进行连接,接收手机的控制信号以及音频数据。音频模块(图中未示出),对接收到的音频数据进行处理并进行播放音频;速度传感器,用于检测婴儿车的推行速度;六轴传感器,用于检测推车当前是否处于斜坡上以及是否有异常运动;刹车装置,根据手把模块检测到的是否有人手握手把的信息以及六轴传感器检测结果,决定是否执行刹车,如果无人手握住手把,且推车处于斜坡上或者有异常的运动就会执行刹车,否则取消刹车,此为智能刹车功能。
前轮控制模块位于婴儿车的两个前轮之间,用于实现警示灯和前照灯的控制以及前轮智能定向。前轮控制模块上有:BLE(从),作为Slave与手把模块进行连接,进行数据传输;安全灯,安装于推车前轮处,夜间推行时打开安全灯可以提高安全性;前轮定向装置,用于实现前轮在定向与万向之间切换,实现智能定向功能。警示灯开关和前轮定向控制开关均处于把手模块中,通过操作把手模块中的按键,再通过BLE(从)进行传输,可以实现两者的开和关。
如图10所示,该图示出了婴儿车系统的组网配对步骤。
通常,一个婴儿车的手把模块、主控模块、前轮控制模块之间需要进行组网配对,否则两台婴儿车(A、B)在附近时,容易产生类似于A的手把模块连接到B的主控模块的情况。配对在出厂时进行,无需用户操作,配对流程为:
Step1:主控模块上通过按钮触发,BLE(主)发起配对请求,向外广播配对请求信息。
Step2:手把模块上的BLE(从)扫描到正在请求配对的BLE(主),根据BLE(主)的广播信息将其标识为BLE(主),并将其MAC地址和标识一起保存在flash中,以便后续的连接。(其中,BLE的MAC地址为唯一的,可以作为配对信息进行保存,以便后续连接的识别。)
Step3:手把模块上的BLE(从)发送配对确认信息给BLE(主),BLE(主)保存BLE(从)的MAC地址到flash中,以便后续的连接。
Step4:前轮控制模块上通过按钮触发,BLE(从)发起配对请求,重复step1~3。如果还有其他模块,重复上述步骤,完成配对组网。
配对完成后,一台婴儿车各个模块之间可建立正常连接,与各个BLE的flash中保存的配对信息不符合的设备将被拒绝连接。
所述婴儿车内部组网内的信息传输方式以及实现的功能:
本申请将手把模块上的BLE(主)为Master,其他模块上的BLE作为从Slave,所有从与主之间连接构成星型网络。主与从之间的信息传输可以直接进行,从与从之间信息传输是由BLE(从)传给BLE(主),再由BLE(主)转发给另一个BLE(从)。基于这一点,婴儿推车的信息传输如下:
智能刹车:手握把手时,把手模块检测到,BLE(主)将结果发送给主控模块的BLE(从),执行解刹;手离开把手时,把手模块将检测结果通过BLE(主)发送给主控模块的BLE(从),此后主控模块根据六轴检测结果,判断推车是否处于斜坡或者有异常运动,如果有则执行刹车,并将刹车执行结果返回给BLE(主)。
安全灯和智能定向:通过把手上的功能键控制,通过BLE(主)将控制信息传输给前轮控制模块的BLE(从)。
智能刹车开关:通过把手上的模式切换键控制,通过BLE(主)将控制信息传输给主控模块上的BLE(从),实现智能刹车的开关。智能刹车关闭以后,可以使用传统脚刹。
系统开关机:
当前系统处于开机状态时,长按电源键,手把通过BLE(主)发送关机指令给主控模块上的BLE(从)和前轮控制模块上的BLE(从),将其关机,此后主控模块和前轮控制模块只有BLE部分处于慢速广播状态(实际取每500ms向外广播一次),使得两者的功耗极低,此后BLE连接断开,手把模块关机。当前系统处于关机状态时,长按手把模块上的电源键,手把模块开机, 此后手把BLE(主)开始扫描,当扫描到主控模块的BLE(从)和前轮控制模块的BLE(从)时,分别与之建立连接,此后主控模块和前轮控制模块开机,系统开机完成。
主控模块上有一个BT模块,该模块是一个蓝牙双模模块,包含音频蓝牙和BLE,其中音频蓝牙用于与手机连接,接收手机传输过来的音频信息,并播放。BLE可以与手机进行连接,用于接收手机的控制信号,返回推车信息给手机,通过手机的连接,可以将推车网络连接到互联网。手机与该网络之间的信息传递如下:
安全灯和智能定向:通过手机APP控制,手机通过BT模块连接推车,将控制信息传输给主控模块,主控模块通过BLE(从)将控制信息传输给手把模块上的BLE(主),手把模块再将信息转发给前轮控制模块上的BLE(从)。
智能刹车开关:通过手机APP控制,手机通过BT模块连接推车,将控制信息传输给主控模块,实现智能刹车的开关。
推车状态显示与联网保存:通过手机APP控制,手机通过BT模块连接推车,所有推车数据,包括温湿度、空气质量、推行里程、实时推车速度等均可以经过该网络传输给主控模块,最终由主控模块上的BT模块传输给手机进行显示,并经过手机联网传到云端做数据统计与分析。
本申请使用无线组网的方式,将婴儿车电子模块通过无线网络连接起来,实现各个电子模块之间的信息传输,省去繁杂的连线(包括但不限于BLE,文中描述的2.4G私有协议也可以实现该组网方式,当电子功能较简单只需要点对点连接时,可以使用433M,SUB1G技术)。
此外,本申请的蓝牙组网方式不限于主从配对方式,各个模块上的BLE之间可以通过蓝牙MESH的方式组成网络,实现信息传输。
相比于在其他需要对物体的运动姿态和/或倾斜程度进行测量的应用场景中,通常使用倾角传感器等器件执行精确测量。以及,相比于一些倾角传感器把MCU、加速度计、模数转换电路、通讯单元全都集成在尺寸非常小的电路板上,能够获得静态条件或者准静态条件下的重力垂直轴与加速度传感器灵敏 轴之间的夹角(即倾斜角),然而在不引入陀螺仪器件的情况下,这类倾角传感器对于动态条件下的物体倾斜状态无法做出准确测量。本发明实施例可以实现更准确的测量。
由于在检测模块中引入陀螺仪会导致较高的成本,不适用于不需要精确获取物体当前的倾斜角度、仅需要对倾斜状态做出动态判定的情况。本发明实施例可以解决由此带来的问题,有利于降低成本。
另外,婴儿车一般包括车体以及设置于车体底部前后的车轮,后轮处一般会设置刹车机构,从而在需要婴儿车停下来不动的时候,进行刹车操作。
相比于一些能够执行自动刹车操作的产品,本发明实施例的方案可以更好的区分用户的使用偏好、以及婴儿车所处地面环境的具体特征,提供令人满意的使用体验。
本发明实施例相比于传统结构的婴儿车,有效的克服了功能单一的问题。同时有效的克服了以下问题:少部分婴儿车加入了一些电子功能,例如温湿度检测,报警装置等,各个电子部件分布于婴儿车的不同位置,通过导线连接进行供电和数据传输,给装配带来了极大的困难,不利于成本的改善。另外,由于各个模块以有线方式直接地连接,这就给整个带来了不可靠性,比如在婴儿车折叠或展开时,容易将数据线折断,造成了用户的使用不便。
此外,由于婴儿车结构较为复杂,需要具有折叠,可拆卸等各种活动连接功能,本发明实施例有效的克服了在婴儿车中加入电子部件后,各个部件之间通过导线连接使得婴儿车的结构设计更加复杂,装配与售后维修更加困难,极大地降低了生产效率,提高维护成本的问题。
以上所述仅为本申请的优选实施例而已,并不用于限制本申请,对于本领域的技术人员来说,本申请可以有各种更改和变化。凡在本申请的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本申请的保护范围之内。
