20200226852
The present application relates to the field of automobile diagnosis technologies, and in particular, to a remote automobile diagnostic method and apparatus, a mobile terminal, an electronic device and a server.
Automobile diagnosis technologies have existed since the birth of automobiles, but with the rapid development of automobile technologies and increasing complexity of high-end automobile configurations, higher professional technical requirements are imposed on automobile maintenance and fault diagnosis technicians. Therefore, automobile diagnostic instruments are more complex and specialized. This not only requires high maintenance funds, but also requires more and more professional qualifications of employees. High-standard 4S shops, chain repair shops, and high-class vehicle clubs cannot be densely popularized, and small repair shops with uneven quality are not enough to provide high-quality and high-level maintenance and repair. An effective way to resolve this dilemma is to carry out remote automobile diagnosis and to remotely resort to technical experts in the industry to diagnose and deal with indefinite fault sites.
At present, most of interfaces and action control in remote automobile diagnosis are based on a predefined set of protocol data. This technology is disadvantageous in the following aspects: If a new function is added, after an interface is developed, protocol data needs to be redefined and a meaning of each field needs to be defined. Both a controlling end and a controlled end need to reprocess received and sent data, reparse the data, and run corresponding logic. As a result, a diagnosis function in remote automobile diagnosis is single because only simple synchronization and control can be performed, and all actions cannot be synchronized from the controlling end to the controlled end, which has poor scalability.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide a remote automobile diagnostic method and apparatus, a mobile terminal, an electronic device and a server, which have favorable scalability.

In addition, the technical features provided in the embodiments of the present invention to be described below may be combined with each other as long as no conflict occurs.
Embodiments of the present invention provide a remote automobile diagnostic method and apparatus, a mobile terminal and an electronic device. According to the remote automobile diagnostic method and apparatus, the mobile terminal and the electronic device, a local diagnosis function can be added to a controlling end, so that a remote diagnosis function is implemented accordingly, which has favorable scalability. Examples are taken below to illustrate an application environment of the foregoing method.
The controlled end 20 includes device application software, a diagnostic protocol package and a lower computer module. The lower computer module is an intermediate device connected to the to-be-diagnosed device 10 such as a vehicle communication interface device (VCI device), and is configured to read data from the to-be-diagnosed device 10 and diagnose the to-be-diagnosed device 10. The diagnostic protocol package is a set of control commands for parsing the read fault information, generating data that can be identified by the device application software, and generating protocol data according to the identifiable data. The device application software of the controlled end displays a diagnosis data interface, sends data to the controlling end 40, and responds to an action of the controlling end 40.
1. The controlled end 20 sends a connection request, arid the controlling end 40 establishes a remote connection between the controlled end 20 and the controlling end 40 in response to the connection request. A process of establishing the remote connection may specifically include: The controlled end 20 sends a remote diagnosis request, the remote diagnosis request being sent to the controlling end 40 through forwarding of the remote diagnosis server 30; and the controlling end 40 sends remote diagnosis response data according to the remote diagnosis request, the remote diagnosis response data being sent to the controlled end 20 through forwarding of the remote diagnosis server 30. Therefore, the controlled end 20 and the controlling end 40 are remotely connected.
2. The controlled end 20 reads a fault code in the to-be-diagnosed device 10, and generates identifiable data. Specifically, the lower computer module of the controlled end 20 receives diagnosis request data sent by the to-be-diagnosed device 10. The lower computer module sends a fault code reading instruction to the to-be-diagnosed device 10 according to the diagnosis request data, reads the fault code, and sends the read fault code to a diagnostic software protocol package of the controlled end 20. The diagnostic software protocol package parses the fault code, and generates the identifiable data. The fault code is a code defined for each fault in an electronic control unit (ECU) of an automobile. The identifiable data is data that can be identified by upper-layer software (such as the device application software). The sending of the fault code reading instruction and the reading of the fault code can be implemented through communication between the lower computer module and an on-board diagnostic (OBD) system interface. In addition, the lower computer module and the diagnostic software protocol package are connected and communicated through wired communication or wireless communication, such as a USB connection or a Bluetooth connection.
3. The controlled end 20 generates a user interface and protocol data according to the identifiable data, and forwards the protocol data to the controlling end 40 through the remote diagnosis server 30. The protocol data may be JavaScript object notation (JSON) protocol data. JSON is a data format based on Internet transmission. JSON is a lightweight data interchange format. JSON is based on a subset of ECMAScript (a JS specification stipulated by w3c) and uses a text format that is completely independent of a programming language to store and represent data. Because JSON has a concise and clear hierarchy, JSON becomes an ideal data exchange language. JSON is easy for people to read and write, and is also easy for machines to parse and generate, thereby effectively improving network transmission efficiency. A specific process of generating the user interface and the JSON protocol data is: the diagnostic protocol package generates the user interface according to the identifiable data, which is convenient and intuitive for a user to display; and automatically generates a JSON software framework to generate the JSON protocol data. In addition, the controlled end 20 sends the JSON protocol data to the remote diagnosis server 30 by establishing a TCP/IP connection to the remote diagnosis server 30.
4. The remote diagnosis server 30 receives the JSON protocol data sent by the controlled end 20, and sends the JSON protocol data to the controlling end 40. For a data backup, the remote diagnosis server 30 may store the JSON protocol data. The remote diagnosis server 30 may be developed for C++, and has a fast response, a strong service processing capability and functions such as data storage and forwarding and device management. The remote diagnosis server 30 sends the JSON protocol data to the controlling end 40 by establishing a TCP/IP connection to the controlling end 40.
5. The controlling end 40 receives and parses the protocol data, and generates an interface associated with a user interface of the controlled end. Specifically, after receiving the JSON protocol data, the controlling end 40 automatically parses the JSON protocol data through the JSON software framework, and generates, through a reflection technology, a synchronization interface associated with the user interface of the controlled end. The reflection technology is a technology in a programming language in which corresponding logic can be run by knowing file and function names. Therefore, the synchronization interface can be produced through the reflection technology.
6. The controlling end 40 receives an interface operation instruction, generates action data according to the interface operation instruction, and sends the action data to the controlled end 20. In particular, when a user operates an interface of the controlling end 40, the controlling end 40 receives the interface operation instruction, generates JSON action data according to the interface operation instruction, and sends the generated JSON action data to the controlled end through the remote diagnosis server 30.
7. The controlled end 20 receives the action data, sends a diagnosis command to the to-be-diagnosed device 10 according to the action data, and executes a diagnosis action corresponding to the action data on the user interface of the controlled end 20, to diagnose the to-be-diagnosed device 10. Specifically, after receiving the JSON action data, the controlled end 20 executes a corresponding file, a corresponding function, and executes the corresponding diagnosis action according to the diagnosis command to diagnose the to-be-diagnosed device 10. In this way, a synchronous operation of the diagnosis action of the controlling end 40 on the controlled end 20 is implemented. The diagnosis action includes a selection action of a diagnosis parameter and an execution action of a diagnosis event; when the diagnosis action is the selection action of the diagnosis parameter, a corresponding diagnosis parameter or option is selected on the user interface; and when the diagnosis action is the execution action of the diagnosis event, a diagnosis instruction corresponding to the execution action of the diagnosis event is sent to the to-be-diagnosed device.
8. The controlled end 20 receives diagnosis result information returned by the to-be-diagnosed device 10 according to the diagnosis instruction, and displays the diagnosis result information on the user interface, to intuitively display a diagnosis result.
In this embodiment of the present invention, after receiving the JSON protocol data, the controlling end 40 automatically parses the JSON protocol data through the JSON software framework, and generates the corresponding synchronization interface through the reflection technology. When receiving the interface operation instruction, the controlling end 40 generates the JSON action data according to the interface operation instruction, and sends the generated JSON action data to the controlled end 20 through the remote diagnosis server 30. After receiving the JSON action data, the controlled end 20 executes the corresponding file and the corresponding function through the reflection technology. Therefore, interface synchronization and action synchronization can be stably implemented. In addition, the reflection technology is used to improve scalability. The following provides detailed description through a flowchart of command synchronization.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the present invention, the to-be-diagnosed device 10 may be an automobile such as a passenger vehicle or a commercial vehicle. The controlled end 20 includes a diagnosis host and a lower computer module. The lower computer may be an independent apparatus or integrated with the diagnosis host. The diagnosis host may be a variety of mobile terminals, such as an automobile diagnostic instrument, a laptop computer, a tablet computer or a smart phone. The lower computer may be a vehicle communication interface device such as J2534 ECU, an OBD connector or a vehicle Bluetooth connection box. The remote diagnosis server 30 may be a traditional server, a cloud server or the like. The controlling end 40 may be an electronic device such as an automobile diagnostic instrument, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a tablet computer or a smart phone.
It should be further noted that, in some other embodiments, the diagnostic software protocol package may be on the controlling end 40, and the controlled end 20 may have no diagnostic protocol package. The fault code read by the controlled end 20 from the to-be-diagnosed device 10 is directly transmitted to the controlling end 40, and the controlling end 40 processes the fault code.
In this embodiment of the present invention, the controlled end 20 may automatically generate the protocol data and send the protocol data to the controlling end 40; and the controlling end 40 may parse the protocol data, generate the interface associated with the user interface of the controlled end 20, then receive the interface operation instruction, and generate the action data according to the interface operation instruction and send the action data to the controlled end 20. In this way, a local diagnosis function is added to the controlling end 40, and a remote diagnosis function is implemented accordingly, which can implement interface synchronization and action synchronization and has favorable scalability.

The identifiable data is data that can be identified by upper-layer software. From a software development perspective, software may include upper-layer software and lower-layer software. The upper-layer software (an interface, an application, or the like) mainly provides human-computer interaction and technical support, and the lower-layer software (embedded software, a driver, or the like) mainly provides an execution function and a feedback function. The to-be-diagnosed device may be an automobile or the like. The information about the to-be-diagnosed device includes a vehicle model, a vehicle series, a vehicle identification number (VIN) and the like, and further includes diagnosis request data and diagnosis result data sent by the to-be-diagnosed device. The information about the to-be-diagnosed device may be sent by the to-be-diagnosed device to the controlled end, or may be information manually entered by a user of the controlled end, such as a vehicle series and a vehicle model.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the controlled end generates the user interface and the protocol data according to the identifiable data, and sends the protocol data to the controlling end. A protocol is an abbreviation of a network protocol. The network protocol is a set of conventions that two communication computers need to comply with, for example, how to establish a connection and how to identify each other. The computers can communicate with each other by complying with this convention. To enable data to reach a destination end from a source end on a network, participants in network communication need to comply with same rules. This set of rules is referred to as a protocol, and is ultimately manifested as a format of a data packet transmitted on the network, that is, protocol data. The protocol data may be JSON protocol data. JSON is a lightweight data format for Internet transmission, and is easy for people to read and write and is also easy for machines to parse and generate, thereby improving network transmission efficiency. A specific process of generating the user interface and the JSON protocol data is: the controlled end generates the user interface according to the identifiable data, which is convenient and intuitive for a user to display; and automatically generates a JSON software framework to generate the JSON protocol data. The JSON protocol data is sent to the controlling end through forwarding of a remote diagnosis server.

The reflection technology is a technology in a programming language in which corresponding logic can be run by knowing file and function names. Through the reflection technology, interfaces and actions of the controlled end and the controlling end can be synchronized. For example, the controlling end executes a “Check” action, the controlled end also executes a “Check” action, the controlling end clicks “Read a fault code”, and the controlled end also clicks “Read a fault code” and sends a “Read a fault code command to the to-be-diagnosed device.
It should be noted that, for technical details not described in detail in steps 401 to 405 in this embodiment of the present invention, refer to the specific description of the foregoing embodiment.
The remote automobile diagnostic method provided in this embodiment of the present invention is applied to the controlled end. The controlled end may automatically generate the protocol data and send the protocol data to the controlling end. If a new function is added, after the interface is developed, there is no need to redefine the protocol data or define a meaning of each field. The controlled end can implement interface synchronization and action synchronization without reprocessing sent and received data and reparsing the data, which has favorable scalability.
