Abstract

A vehicle-mounted charger having voice control function includes: a contact plug, a charging socket, a voice acquisition unit, a recognition control unit, and a first BLUETOOTH unit. The voice acquisition unit collects a voice signal and converts the voice signal to an electrical signal. The recognition control unit includes a conversion module, a first storage module, an operation module, and an executive module. The conversion module converts the electrical signal into a data signal and sends the data signal to the operation module. The operation module compares the data signal with predetermined storage data stored by the first storage module, operates the data signal, and sends control command to the executive module. The executive module sends executive command according to the control command. The first BLUETOOTH unit sends BLUETOOTH signal to the portable device according to the executive command to control the portable device to execute corresponding operation.

Claims

1. A vehicle-mounted charger having voice control function, comprising:

a contact plug inserted into a vehicle-charging base;

a charging socket connected with the contact plug and charging a portable device;

a voice acquisition unit collecting a voice signal and converting the voice signal to an electrical signal;

a recognition control unit comprising a conversion module, a first storage module, an operation module, and an executive module;

wherein the conversion module, the first storage module, the operation module, and the executive module are in communication connection through a bus of the recognition control unit;

the conversion module converts the electrical signal into a data signal and sends the data signal to the operation module;

the operation module compares the data signal with predetermined storage data stored by the first storage module, operates the data signal, and sends control command to the executive module;

the executive module sends executive command according to the control command; and

a first BLUETOOTH unit connected with the recognition control unit, wherein the first BLUETOOTH unit sends BLUETOOTH signal to the portable device according to the executive command, to control the portable device to execute corresponding operation according to the executive command.

2. The vehicle-mounted charger having the voice control function as claimed in claim 1, wherein a number of the storage data is more, and each storage data is in one-to-one correspondence with each control command;

the operation module compares the data signal with the storage data, when the data signal is same to at least one of the storage data or corresponds to the storage data;

the operation module sends the control command corresponding to the storage data to the executive module.

3. The vehicle-mounted charger having the voice control function as claimed in claim 2, wherein the portable device comprises a second BLUETOOTH unit;

the first BLUETOOTH unit is matched with the second BLUETOOTH unit to send the executive module or receive communication data of the portable device.

4. The vehicle-mounted charger having the voice control function as claimed in claim 3, further comprising:

a frequency modulation (FM) unit;

wherein the FM unit is electrically connected with the recognition control unit;

the portable device sends the communication data to the recognition control unit and the communication data is sent to a vehicle-mounted broadcast system through the FM unit.

5. The vehicle-mounted charger having the voice control function as claimed in claim 4, further comprising:

a display unit;

wherein the display unit is connected with the bus of the recognition control unit, and the display unit displays an FM channel.

6. The vehicle-mounted charger having the voice control function as claimed in claim 5, further comprising:

an adjustment key;

wherein the adjustment key is electrically connected with the recognition control unit to adjust frequency modulation of the FM unit.

7. The vehicle-mounted charger having the voice control function as claimed in claim 3, further comprising:

a second storage module;

wherein the second storage module is connected with the bus, and the second storage module stores operational rule of the operation module and/or data converting protocol of the conversion module.

8. The vehicle-mounted charger having the voice control function as claimed in claim 7, further comprising:

a programmable control module;

wherein the programmable control module is connected with the bus to externally connect with a programmer;

the programmer edits operational rule stored in the second storage module and/or data converting protocol of the conversion module through the programmable control module.

9. The vehicle-mounted charger having the voice control function as claimed in claim 8, wherein the conversion module, the first storage module, the operation module, the executive module, the second storage module, and the programmable control module are integrated in a control chip;

model of the control chip is NUVOTON-ISD9160.

10. The vehicle-mounted charger having the voice control function as claimed in claim 1, further comprising:

a power supply unit;

wherein the power supply unit provides power source for the voice acquisition unit, the recognition control unit, and the first BLUETOOTH unit, and/or converts voltage of the contact plug to charging voltage of the portable device to charge the portable device.
