This application claims priority to Chinese Application No. 201710254201.8 filed Apr. 18, 2017, the contents of all of which as are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
The present invention relates to the field of vehicle control, and in particular, to a vehicle control method, device and system, and a vehicle.
With the development of Internet technology and a shared economic mode, shared travel services to provide users with bicycles and other means of transport, such as shared bicycles have come into being. By means of the shared bicycle services, the user can travel by riding a bicycle rented in a time-sharing rental mode, which is very convenient and greatly enriches the user's travel experience while achieving the purposes of low carbon, environmental friendliness and green travel.
In existing shared travel service control systems, e.g., in a shared bicycle control system, it is common to identify a bicycle desired to be rented in such as way that a user logs in an APP (Application) of a shared bicycle, which has been installed on a smart terminal, by scanning a two-dimensional code in an APP interface, and then operate on the basis of the APP interface to perform communication with a backend server in the shared bicycle control system. The bicycle desired to be rented is controlled by the backend server for renting the bicycle. Therefore, it is necessary to download the shared bicycle APP in advance if the user wants to acquire the shared bicycle service. In addition, each time he/she rents a bicycle, it is necessary to make an interaction with the backend server through APP operations. Therefore, more operations are required and the user experience is affected. Especially for the aged who is not familiar with the use of smart terminals, it is difficult to install and use an APP through the smart terminals to enjoy the shared bicycle service. At the same time, in places with poor coverage of a communication network, it is unable to guarantee a stable communication between the smart terminal and the backend server, thereby failing to achieve the purpose of travel by renting a bicycle on the basis of APP operations. In addition, in the current shared bicycle service, the user can ride the bicycle completely depending on manpower, and it will become a burden in terms of the user's physical strength, and is not appropriate for long distance travels.
Therefore, the inventor believes that it is necessary to improve the problems existing in the above-described prior art.

The vehicle control system 200 illustrated in
In the present embodiment, there is provided a vehicle control method, which is implemented by a vehicle control device and, as shown in
In step S1100, a connection channel is established with a target vehicle.
In the present embodiment, the target vehicle is a transportation vehicle the user desires to use in such ways of sharing service or rental. For example, a bicycle or a vehicle having a function similar to the bicycle is available.
The target vehicle is controlled via a connection channel established between the vehicle control device and the target vehicle.
Specifically, the connection channel is established by forming a physical contact with the target vehicle. For example, by means of correspondingly matched contacts, interfaces or other contact structures respectively arranged on the vehicle control device and the target vehicle, the vehicle control device can physically contact the target vehicle to establish the connection channel.
Of course, it is possible to establish the connection channel by forming a wireless connection between the vehicle control device and the target vehicle based on a public or private protocol having a function of supporting information transmission, electric energy transmission, etc.
In a specific example, the connection channel may include a communication channel and a power supply channel, wherein the communication channel is used for communicating with the target vehicle to execute the following step S1200 as shown in
In this example, the connection channel may be only logically distinguished as the communication channel and the power supply channel. For example, the communication channel and the power supply channel may be two channels that are separated physically, or may be one channel that is separated logically, but integrated physically.
It is very simple and convenient for the user who desires to use the target vehicle to establish the operation for controlling the connection channel of the target vehicle, and the operation does not involve the download of a relevant APP and interface operations.
In addition, differing from the prior art in which an APP for implementing management and control needs to be installed in a smart terminal and an APP interface is operated to establish a communication connection with a backend server and is then in communication connection with the target vehicle via the backend server, in the present embodiment, the connection channel for controlling the target vehicle is established, without the need of realizing a multi-terminal communication model based on the exiting communication network, such that the risk that the target vehicle cannot be controlled owing to instability or poor coverage of the communication network can be avoided. The user experience of controlling the target vehicle can be enhanced.
After establishing the connection channel in the step S1100, it proceeds to a step S1200 in which an unlocking request is sent to the target vehicle via the connection channel, and the target vehicle is triggered to determine whether to open a lock located thereon.
The vehicle control device can send the unlocking request to the target vehicle directly via the connection channel to trigger the target vehicle to determine whether to open the lock located thereon. For users who desire to use the target vehicle, the process of triggering unlocking does not require any additional operation, and is automatic and imperceptible, and therefore the user experience is greatly enhanced. It is particularly suitable for users, such as the aged who are not accustomed to perform cumbersome operations on the APP interface via a smart terminal.
Specifically, the step S1200 may, as shown in
In step S1200-1, the unlocking request is generated according to an identifier acquired in advance, the identifier being used for identifying an identity of the vehicle control device.
Specifically, the identifier is a unique identifier for distinguishing the vehicle control device. For example, the identifier may be a device ID of the vehicle control device. Or, the identifier may be a user identifier of a user who is authorized to legally use the target vehicle, the user identifier being a unique identifier, such as a user ID, for distinguishing a user. In a more specific application, the device ID as the identifier may bind to the user ID. For example, the user ID may be bound to the device ID through a network or other physical channel, such as a convenience store. In addition, recharge, update of rental billing records and the like can be implemented based on the user ID so as to realize a further management of the vehicle control device corresponding to the device ID that is bound to the user ID. Furthermore, it is also possible to change the bound device ID or remove binding based on the user ID. Therefore, the control function of the vehicle control device is expanded, and the user experience is enriched.
In the present embodiment, the vehicle control method may further include: acquiring a pre-assigned identifier and storing it locally for generating the unlocking request.
For example, when the identifier is the device ID, the device ID may be assigned to the vehicle management device in advance to achieve a unique distinguishment of any vehicle management device. In addition, it is also possible to bind an initial corresponding user ID to the device ID during preassignment. Or, when the identifier is the user ID, it is possible to acquire the user ID assigned to the user who has been authorized to legally use the target vehicle in advance via a network.
The identifier is stored locally in the vehicle control device for generating the unlocking request. Specifically, for data safety, it is possible to perform encryption during storage by adopting an encryption algorithm, for example, an IC card encryption algorithm. Furthermore, the identifier may be locally stored in the vehicle control device. Other data, such as records of vehicle control by the vehicle control device, more particularly records that the user uses the target vehicle via the vehicle control device, may also be stored locally in the vehicle control device.
In step S1200-2, the target vehicle is triggered, sending the unlocking request to the target vehicle via the connection channel, and triggering the target vehicle to check according to the identifier and open the lock after the checking succeeds.
The unlocking request is generated on the basis of the identifier. The target vehicle is triggered, sending the unlocking request to the target vehicle via the connection channel, and triggering the target vehicle to check according to the identifier to determine whether to open the lock located thereon.
For example, when the identifier is the device ID, the predetermined unlocking condition is that the identifier is a legal device ID. When the target vehicle checks the device ID to determine that it is the legal device ID, the lock located thereon is opened, or the lock is not opened.
When the identifier is the user ID, the predetermined unlocking condition is that the user ID is an authorized legal user ID. When the target vehicle checks the user ID to determine that it is the authorized legal user ID (the user ID has paid a deposit, has no due bills, has a balance or theuser ID is not illegal, etc.), the lock located thereon is opened, or the lock is not opened.
When the identifier is the device ID that is bound to the user ID, the predetermined unlocking condition is that whether the device ID is a legal device ID and the bound user ID is an authorized legal user ID (the user ID has paid a deposit, has no due bills, has a balance or the user ID is not illegal, etc.). When the target vehicle checks that the device ID is the legal device ID and the bound user ID is the authorized legal user ID, the lock located thereon is opened, or the lock is not opened;
Furthermore, in a specific application, the target vehicle may also decide whether to respond to the unlocking request based on the vehicle state state while checking the identifier. For example, when the lock has been in an unlocked state or the lock is abnormal (the lock is low in electric energy, the lock has a fault, etc.), the target vehicle may not respond to the unlocking request to avoid abnormal use of the vehicle.
In step S1300, after the lock is opened, electric energy is output to the target vehicle via the connection channel to provide at least part of power that supports the target vehicle to run.
In the present embodiment, after the lock of the vehicle control device is opened, electric energy can be output to the target vehicle via the connection channel to provide at least part of power that supports the target vehicle to run. Physical strength can be saved for the user who travels using the target vehicle. The range of a travel distance of the target vehicle used by the user is expanded. The travel experience of the user is enriched.
In a specific application, the vehicle control device may also dynamically adjust a value of electric energy output to the target vehicle according to the electric energy that can be supplied by the vehicle control device, to dynamically adjust a range of power that supports the target vehicle to run. For example, in the provision of sufficient electric energy, it is possible to output more electric energy to the target vehicle to provide the target vehicle greater power that supports traveling. When the electric energy that can be supplied by the vehicle control device is insufficient, less electric energy is output to the target vehicle to provide the target vehicle less power that supports traveling, etc.
Furthermore, electric energy transmitted to the target vehicle by the vehicle control device can be used not only to provide at least part of power for supporting the target vehicle to run, but also to charge power consuming devices such as a lock or a vehicle-mounted device on the target vehicle, etc.
In the present embodiment, it is disclosed that the connection channel can be established by implementing the method as shown in
<Vehicle Control Device>
In the present embodiment, there is also provided a vehicle control device 2000, which, as shown in
The vehicle control device 2000 includes: the connection unit 2100 used for establishing a connection channel with a target vehicle; the unlocking unit 2200 used for sending an unlocking request to the target vehicle via the connection channel, and triggering the target vehicle to check and determine whether to open a lock located thereon; and the power-assisting unit 2300 used for, after the lock is opened, outputting electric energy to the target vehicle via the connection channel to provide at least part of power that supports the target vehicle to run.
Optionally, the connection unit 2100 is used for establishing the connection channel by forming a physical contact with the target vehicle.
Optionally, the unlocking unit 2200 includes a means used for generating the unlocking request according to an identifier acquired in advance, the identifier being used for identifying an identity of the vehicle control device; and a means used for, sending the unlocking request to the target vehicle via the connection channel, and triggering the target vehicle to check according to the identifier and opening the lock after the checking succeeds.
Optionally, the vehicle control device 2000 further includes a storage unit 2400 used for acquiring a pre-assigned identifier and storing it locally for generating the unlocking request.
Optionally, the connection channel includes a communication channel and a power supply channel. The connection unit 2100 includes a communication interface 2101 used for establishing the communication channel for the unlocking unit to communicate with the target vehicle to execute the step of triggering the target vehicle to unlock; and a power supply interface 2102 used for establishing the power supply channel for the power-assisting unit to output electric energy to the target vehicle to execute the step of providing power.
It should also be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the vehicle control device 2000 may be implemented in various ways. For example, the vehicle control device 2000 may be implemented by configuring the processor through the instructions. For example, the instructions may be stored in an ROM, and when the device is started, the instructions are read from the ROM into a programmable device to implement the vehicle control device 2000. For example, the vehicle control device 2000 may be cured to a dedicated device (e.g., an ASIC). The vehicle control device 2000 can be divided into separate units, or is implemented by integrating these separate units together. The vehicle control device 2000 may be implemented by one of the above-described various implementation ways, or may be implemented by a combination of two or more of the above-described various implementation ways.
In a specific example of the present embodiment, the hardware configuration of the vehicle control device 2000 may be an electronic device 3000 as shown in
In a specific example, the electronic device 3000 may be a portable power supply device or a battery.

The operation is simple and convenient, and the user experience is enhanced. In addition, it is unnecessary to realize a multi-terminal communication model based on the exiting communication network, such that the risk that the target vehicle cannot be controlled owing to instability or poor coverage of the communication network can be avoided. Furthermore, physical strength can be saved for the user who travels using the target vehicle. The range of a travel distance of the target vehicle used by the user is expanded. The travel experience of the user is enriched.
<Method>
In the present embodiment, there is provided a vehicle control method, which, as shown in
In step S4100, a connection channel is established with the vehicle control device under the control of the vehicle control device.
In the present embodiment, the target vehicle is a transportation vehicle the user desires to use in such ways of sharing service or rental. The vehicle control device is the vehicle control device 2000 provided by the first embodiment, which will not be repeated here again.
The connection channel is established with the vehicle control device under the control of the vehicle control device to execute a control operation of the vehicle control device to trigger the target vehicle.
Specifically, the connection channel is established by forming a physical connection with the vehicle control device under the control of the vehicle control device. For example, by means of the correspondingly matched contacts, interfaces and other contact structures respectively arranged on the vehicle control device and the target vehicle, the connection channel is established by forming a physical contact with the vehicle control device under the control of the vehicle control device.
Of course, the connection channel may also be established by forming a physical contact with the vehicle control device under the control of the vehicle control device, based on a public or private protocol having a function of supporting information transmission, electric energy transmission, etc.
In a specific example, the connection channel may include a communication channel and a power supply channel, wherein the communication channel is used for communicating with the vehicle control device to execute the following step S4200 as shown in
It is very simple and convenient for the user who desires to use the target vehicle that the target vehicle is directly controlled by a connection control device to establish the connection channel for controlling the target vehicle, and the operation does not involve the download of a relevant APP and interface operations.
In addition, differing from the prior art in which an APP for implementing management and control needs to be installed in a smart terminal and an APP interface is operated to establish a communication connection with a backend server and is then in communication connection with the target vehicle via the backend server, in the present embodiment, the connection channel for controlling the target vehicle is established, without the need of realizing a multi-terminal communication model based on the exiting communication network, such that the risk that the target vehicle cannot be controlled owing to instability or poor coverage of the communication network can be avoided. The user experience of controlling the target vehicle can be enhanced.
In step S4200, in response to an unlocking request sent by the vehicle control device via the connection channel, whether to open a lock located on the target vehicle is determined.
The vehicle control device may directly send the unlocking request to the target vehicle via the connection channel, and the target vehicle determines whether to open the lock located thereon in response to triggering the unlocking request. For users who desire to use the target vehicle, the process of triggering unlocking does not require any additional operation, and is automatic and imperceptible, and therefore the user experience is greatly enhanced. It is particularly suitable for users, such as the aged who are not accustomed to perform cumbersome operations on the APP interface via a smart terminal.
Specifically, the step S4200, as shown in
In step S4200-1, in response to an unlocking request sent by the vehicle control device via the connection channel, checking is performed according to the identifier included in the unlocking request, the identifier being used for identifying an identity of the vehicle control device.
Specifically, the identifier is a unique identifier for distinguishing the vehicle control device. For example, the identifier may be a device ID of the vehicle control device. Or, the identifier may be a user identifier of a user who is authorized to legally use the target vehicle, the user identifier being a unique identifier, such as a user ID, for distinguishing a user. In a specific application, the device ID as the identifier may bind to the user ID. More specific examples about the identifier have been described in the first embodiment and will not be repeated here again.
Whether the identifier meets a predetermined unlocking condition is determined by checking the identifier by the target vehicle. The predetermined unlocking condition corresponds to the identifier. For example, when the identifier is a device ID, the predetermined unlocking condition is that the identifier is a legal device ID; when the identifier is a user ID, the predetermined unlocking condition is that the identifier is an authorized legal user ID (the user ID has paid a deposit, has no due bills, has a balance or the user ID is not illegal, etc.); when the identifier is a user ID and binds to the user ID, the predetermined unlocking condition is that the identifier is a legal device ID and the corresponding bound user ID is an authorized legal user (the user ID has paid a deposit, has no due bills, has a balance or the user ID is not illegal, etc.).
In step S4200-2, the lock is opened after confirming that the identifier meets a predetermined unlocking condition upon checking.
After the identifier meets the predetermined unlocking condition upon checking, the target vehicle will trigger opening of the lock located thereon, or the lock will be not opened.
Furthermore, in a specific application, the target vehicle may also decide whether to respond to the unlocking request based on the vehicle state while checking the identifier. For example, when the lock has been in an unlocked state or the lock is abnormal (the lock is low in electric energy, the lock has a fault, etc.), the target vehicle may not respond to the unlocking request to avoid abnormal use of the vehicle.
In another example, the step of checking the identifier in step S4200 may be implemented by the server and, as shown in
In step S4200-1, in response to the unlocking request sent by the vehicle control device via the connection channel, the unlocking request is forwarded to a server, for the server to check according to the identifier included in the unlocking request to determine whether to send an unlocking instruction to the target vehicle, the identifier being used for identifying an identity of the vehicle control device.
In this example, a specific example of the identifier has been described in detail in the example as shown in
The identifier in the unlocking request forwarded by the target vehicle is verified by triggering the server to determine whether the identifier meets the predetermined unlocking condition. The predetermined unlocking condition corresponds to the identifier, and the specific example has been described in detail in the example as shown in
In step S4200-2, the lock is opened in response to the received unlocking instruction.
The server will send an unlocking instruction to the target vehicle when determining that the identifier meets the predetermined unlocking condition upon checking; otherwise, it will not send the unlocking instruction. The target vehicle will open the lock located thereon in response to the received unlocking instruction.
Furthermore, in a specific application, the target vehicle may also decide whether to execute the unlocking instruction based on the vehicle state after receiving the unlocking instruction. For example, when the lock has been in an unlocked state or the lock is abnormal (the lock is low in electric energy, the lock has a fault, etc.), the target vehicle may not execute the unlocking instruction to avoid abnormal use of the vehicle.
In step S4300, after the lock is opened, the electric energy come from the vehicle control device is received via the connection channel to convert the electric energy into at least part of power that supports the target vehicle to run.
In the present embodiment, after the lock is opened, the target vehicle may receive electric energy come from the vehicle control unit via the connection channel to supply at least part of power that supports the target vehicle to run. Physical strength can be saved for the user who travels using the target vehicle. The range of a travel distance of the target vehicle used by the user is expanded. The travel experience of the user is enriched.
In the present embodiment, it is disclosed that the connection channel can be established by implementing the method as shown in
