Abstract
The present invention relates to a pedal operation safety device for an autonomous vehicle, and in the autonomous mode of a vehicle, a pedal guide (10) covers the pedal (1) So that it is possible to prevent the driver from erroneously operating the pedal 1.
Description
The present invention relates to a pedal operation safety device for an autonomous vehicle, and more particularly, to a pedal operation safety device for an autonomous vehicle that can prevent a driver from erroneously operating the pedal in an autonomous running situation.
A self-propelled vehicle refers to a smart car that incorporates self-propelled technology applied to aircraft and ships, such as a car that travels to its destination without requiring the driver to operate the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake.
In order to realize the autonomous driving of the vehicle, it is necessary to use a highway driving assist (HDA) technology, a lane departure warning system (LDWS), a lane keeping assistance system (LKAS) In addition to vehicle technologies such as Blind Spot Detection (BSD), Advanced Smart Cruise Control (ASCC), and Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), communications technologies between vehicles and base stations, communications between vehicles and satellites And various other advanced technologies are needed.
On the other hand, in the autonomous driving situation, the driver does not operate the pedal (accelerator pedal or brake pedal) of the vehicle. If the driver operates the pedal during autonomous driving, the vehicle controller ends the autonomous driving of the driver, It is determined that the operation is desired and the control for the autonomous running is terminated.
However, since the pedal of the vehicle is installed so as to be exposed in the lower space of the driver's seat, there is a possibility that the driver unconsciously operates the pedal in the autonomous driving situation (the pedal is erroneously operated) There is a possibility of occurrence.
Therefore, it is required to develop a technique that can prevent the pedal misoperation by the driver in the autonomous driving situation.
It should be understood that the foregoing description of the background art is merely for the purpose of promoting an understanding of the background of the present invention and is not to be construed as an admission that the prior art is known to those skilled in the art.
The present invention makes it possible to operate the pedal by the driver in a situation in which the driver directly drives the pedal, and to prevent the pedal from being erroneously operated by the driver in the autonomous driving situation. Further, in the autonomous driving situation, And it is an object of the present invention to provide a pedal operation safety device for an autonomous driving vehicle that can be mounted comfortably.
In order to accomplish the above object, the present invention provides a pedal operation safety device for a self-propelled vehicle, which is installed facing a pedal of a vehicle located in a lower space of a driver's seat, and covers a pedal of the vehicle so that a pedal can not be operated by a driver A pedal guide that operates so as to be capable of releasing the cover of the pedal so that the driver can operate the pedal in a manual driving situation; And an actuator connected to the pedal guide to operate the pedal guide.
A vehicle controller for controlling an operation of the actuator; And a traveling mode switch for generating and transmitting an autonomous traveling signal or a manual traveling signal to the vehicle controller by an operation of the driver.
A base cover is fixedly mounted on a vehicle body panel or a cowl crossbar forming the driver's seat lower space; An upper end of the pedal guide is installed on the base cover so as to be rotatable about the hinge axis in the longitudinal direction, and the actuator is fixed.
The pedal guide is formed with a plurality of guide holes to prevent interference with the pedal when the pedal guide is operated.
The actuator is a linear motor in which the mover moves in a straight line; And the mover of the linear motor and the upper end of the pedal guide are connected through the motor rod.
When the lower end of the pedal guide rotates to the rear with the driver, the pedal guide is located at the same height as the maximum protruding surface of the pedal or further protrudes rearward to cover the pedal; When the lower end of the pedal guide rotates forward, the pedal passes through the guide hole and is exposed to the driver, and at the same time, the covering by the pedal guide is released.
The lower end of the pedal guide is curved so as to protrude toward the front side of the pedal from the upper end with respect to the base cover so that the foot space of the driver can be secured while minimizing the infiltration of the driver's seat lower space by the pedal guide .
A rod hole through which the motor rod passes is formed at the upper end of the pedal guide; And the rod hole is formed as a slot hole extending vertically so as to absorb a linear movement locus of the motor rod.
The pedal guide is the same as the maximum protruding surface of the pedal or further protrudes rearward so that the pedal as a reference when the pedal is covered is a brake pedal.

According to the present invention, the pedal guide covers the pedal in the autonomous mode of the vehicle, thereby preventing the driver from erroneously operating the pedal. As a result, the running safety of the vehicle is further improved, There is an effect that can be prevented.
Further, according to the present invention, a driver can rest on a pedal guide covering a pedal in an autonomous driving mode, thereby resting comfortably.
