发明名称 Emergency vehicle climate apparatus and method
摘要 At least one environmental parameter is received from at least one environmental sensor located in or at a vehicle. Based upon the at least one environmental parameter, a determination is made as to whether an abnormal condition exists within or at a vehicle. When the abnormal condition exists, at least one vehicle component is actuated until the abnormal condition no longer exists within the vehicle.

主权项 1. A method, the method comprising: receiving at least one temperature parameter from at least one temperature sensor and at least one air quality parameter from at least one air quality sensor located in or at an electric or hybrid vehicle; determining whether the driver is in the electric or hybrid vehicle; determining whether a child or other passenger is in the electric or hybrid vehicle; based upon the at least one temperature parameter, determining whether an abnormal temperature condition exists within or at the electric or hybrid vehicle; based upon the at least one air quality parameter, determining whether an abnormal air quality condition exists within or at the electric or hybrid vehicle; when one or more of the abnormal temperature condition or the abnormal air quality condition exist, when the driver is not in the electric or hybrid vehicle, and when a child or other passenger is in the electric or hybrid vehicle, reaching a preliminary determination at a processing unit that a potential actionable abnormal condition exists at or within the electric or hybrid vehicle; confirming at the processing unit that the potential actionable abnormal condition is an actual abnormal condition, the confirming based upon an evaluation of multiple sensor readings from the at least one temperature sensor and the at least one air quality sensor, at least two sensor readings being required to confirm that the actual abnormal condition exists; when the actual abnormal condition is confirmed, at the processing unit enabling at least one vehicle component until one or more of the abnormal temperature condition and the abnormal air quality condition no longer exist within the vehicle; at the processing unit, measuring the time since the driver has left the vehicle; from the processing unit, sending an alert message to a party that is not the driver when the measured time exceeds a threshold.
