As shown in
In S10, when a touch signal of a first touch area is collected, vehicle state information and key position information are acquired.
In this embodiment of the present disclosure, dual capacitors may be arranged to unlock each vehicle door. As shown in
Referring to
It is to be understood that, the first capacitor 2 and the second capacitor 3 may be fixedly arranged in a door handle cavity through buckles, the door handle cavity is then filled with adhesive by adopting an adhesive filling technology to achieve the fixation and waterproof sealing performance of the first capacitor 2 and the second capacitor 3. Generally, the first touch area is arranged on a rear side of the door handle.
In S20, when it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is valid and is a guard mode off request signal according to the vehicle state information and the key position information, the vehicle is controlled to turn off a guard mode and door handles of the vehicle are driven to stretch out.
In some embodiments, after the vehicle state information and the key position information are acquired, it can be determined whether the touch signal of the first touch area is valid according to the information. If it is valid, it can be further determined whether the touch signal of the first touch area is the guard mode off request signal.
In some embodiments, the determining that the touch signal of the first touch area is valid and is a guard mode off request signal according to the vehicle state information and the key position information includes the following step: when it is determined that the vehicle is in a guard mode on state and the vehicle is in an OFF gear state according to the vehicle state information and it is determined that a key is outside the vehicle according to the key position information, it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is valid and is the guard mode off request signal.
In some embodiments, after the touch signal of the first touch area is collected, the domain controller acquires the vehicle state information and the key position information through CAN bus signals and other means. When it is determined that the vehicle is in a guard mode on state, the vehicle is in an OFF gear state and the key is outside the vehicle, the touch signal of the first touch area is valid and is the guard mode off request signal.
It is to be understood that, when it is determined that the vehicle is not in a guard mode on state, there is no need to turn off the guard mode, so the current touch signal of the first touch area is not the guard mode off request signal; when it is determined that the vehicle is not in an OFF gear state, which indicates that the current user possibly does not plan to park, there is no need to turn off the guard mode, so the touch signal is not the guard mode off request signal; and when it is determined that the key of the vehicle is inside the vehicle, for example, the key of the vehicle is inserted into a keyhole, which may also indicate that the current user does not plan to park, there is need to turn off the guard mode, and the touch signal is not the guard mode off request signal.
After it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is valid and is the guard mode off request signal, the vehicle can be controlled to perform a guard mode off operation and the door handles of the vehicle can be driven to stretch out.
It is to be understood that, the guard mode off operation of the vehicle in this embodiment aims at turning off the guard mode of the vehicle door, that is, before the vehicle door is opened, the guard mode off operation needs to be performed. If not, the vehicle door cannot be opened normally. After the guard mode off operation is completed, the door handle of the vehicle can be controlled by a door handle motor to stretch out to expose the touch area corresponding to the second capacitor, i.e., a capacitor-controlled unlocking area illustrated in
In S30, after the door handles stretch out, when a touch signal of a second touch area corresponding to any door handle is collected, the touch signal of the second touch area is determined to be valid according to the vehicle state information, and the vehicle door corresponding to the door handle is controlled to unlock.
In some embodiments, after the door handles of the vehicle stretch out, the second touch area can be exposed, and the user can touch the second touch area of any door handle. After the domain controller collects the touch signal of the second touch area, the vehicle state information can be further acquired, and then it is determined whether the touch signal of the second touch area is valid according to the vehicle state information.
In some embodiments, when it is determined that the vehicle door corresponding to the door handle is in a locked state and a guard mode off state according to the vehicle state information, it is determined that the touch signal of the second touch area is valid.
In some embodiments, after the vehicle state information is acquired, it can be determined whether the vehicle doors of the vehicle are in a locked state and whether the vehicle is in a guard mode off state according to the vehicle state information. When the vehicle doors of the vehicle are in a locked state and the vehicle is in a guard mode off state, it indicates that the guard mode off operation of the vehicle has been completed after the user touches the first touch area. When it is detected that the doors of the current vehicle are not in a locked state, there is no need to unlock them again, so the touch signal of the second touch area is invalid.
When it is determined that the touch signal of the second touch area is valid, an electric unlocking motor may be driven to control the corresponding vehicle door to unlock. Specifically, the electric unlocking motor may be controlled to drive for 300 ms to unlock the corresponding vehicle door, so that the user no longer needs to pull the door handle to a certain distance to unlock the vehicle door, thus improving the user experience.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, after the vehicle state information and the key position information are acquired, the method further includes the following step: when it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is valid and is the guard mode on request signal according to the vehicle state information and the key position information, the vehicle is controlled to turn on the guard mode and the door handles of the vehicle are driven to get back.
In some embodiments, after the vehicle state information and the key position information are acquired, when it is determined that the vehicle is in a guard mode off state, the vehicle doors are in a locked state, the vehicle is in an OFF gear state and the key is outside the vehicle according to the vehicle state information and the key position information, it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is valid and the touch signal is the guard mode on request signal.
It is to be understood that, the guard mode on request signal may correspond to an operation of closing the vehicle door, while the guard mode off request signal may correspond to an operation of opening the vehicle door.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, after the vehicle state information and the key position information are acquired, the method further includes the following step: when it is determined that the vehicle is in a guard mode off state and the vehicle doors are in an unlocked state according to the vehicle state information, it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is invalid; or when it is determined that the vehicle is in a guard mode off state, the vehicle doors are in a locked state and the vehicle is not in an OFF gear state according to the vehicle state information, it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is invalid; or when it is determined that the vehicle is in a guard mode off state, the vehicle doors are in a locked state and the vehicle is in an OFF gear state according to the vehicle state information and it is determined that the key is not outside the vehicle according to the key position information, it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is invalid; or when it is determined that the vehicle is in a guard mode on state and the vehicle is not in an OFF gear state according to the vehicle state information, it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is invalid; or when it is determined that the vehicle is in a guard mode on state and the vehicle is in an OFF gear state according to the vehicle state information and it is determined that the key is not outside the vehicle according to the key position information, it is determined that the touch signal of the first touch area is invalid.
In some embodiments, it is to be understood that, when whether the touch signal of the first touch area is valid is determined according to the vehicle state information and the key position information, a reference may be made to the above embodiment for determining the guard mode off signal and the guard mode on signal; when the touch signal does not satisfy the guard mode off signal and the guard mode on signal, it can be determined that the touch signal is an invalid signal.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, after the vehicle is controlled to turn off the guard mode or turn on the guard mode and before the door handles of the vehicle are driven to stretch out or get back, the method further includes the following step: it is determined that door handle motors of the vehicle are not in a thermal protection state.
In some embodiments, in order to prevent children or some users from frequently opening and closing the doors, which may cause the motors to burn out, door handle motor thermal protection may be set up. The door handle motors are used for driving the door handles to stretch out and get back. When the door handle motors are in a thermal protection state, the vehicle can be controlled to turn off the guard mode or turn on the guard mode, but the door handles will not stretch out or get back. Specifically, it can be determined whether the motor is in a thermal protection state by the temperature of the motor or operating frequency of the motor. For example, if the motor repetitively runs more than 15 times within five minutes, it can be determined that the motor is in a thermal protection state. After it is determined that the motor is in the thermal protection state, the touch signal of the first touch area may be collected again after 30 s.
