Description

Starting Control and Tuning

technical field

The present invention relates to a technique for remote starting of a vehicle engine.

Background technique

A few years ago, when locking and unlocking the doors and starting the engine, a key was inserted into the lock cylinder and turned. And recently is to use remote control key to carry out above-mentioned operation remotely.

The function of the remote control key is gradually improved. For example, a technique for remotely starting an engine of a vehicle using such a key has been developed.

The prior art of remotely starting an engine is disclosed in the following patent documents. In these conventional technologies, a start control device is built into a vehicle, and when the start control device receives an engine start request from an external device through wireless communication, the start control device performs an engine start operation.

Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 11-198761;

Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 11-230013;

Patent Document 3: Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 8-247009;

Patent Document 4: Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 10-211868;

Patent Document 5: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-180249;

Patent Document 6: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-29119.

There are two types of launch controls in the prior art. The first type is to receive an engine start request from a key fob via wireless communication. The second type is to receive an engine start request from a remote controller dedicated to engine start, rather than from a key fob.

The remote control key is mainly used to lock and unlock the doors of the vehicle and to issue an alarm (emergency alarm) to people around the vehicle. In the first type, therefore, a prescribed command for an engine starting operation is required. Such an instruction is transmitted from the fob key by pressing a button or the like that transmits a door lock request three times in succession.

The first type can be provided at low cost since it is not necessary to provide a remote controller and a tuner.

However, the communication distance of the key fob is shorter than that of the remote controller (for example, 5m from the vehicle), causing inconvenience.

It is therefore desirable to improve launch controls.

Contents of the invention

The present invention was developed to eliminate the above-mentioned problems in the prior art and solve the above-mentioned problems, and an object thereof is to provide a starting control device and a tuning device that can control the initial investment and improve functions as required.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems and achieve the purpose, the start control device of the present invention has: a receiving structure that receives an engine start request based on a first signal wirelessly transmitted from a remote key; tuner, the second signal representing an engine start request wirelessly transmitted from the remote control; either upon receipt of an engine start request based on the first signal wirelessly transmitted from the fob, or wirelessly transmitted from the remote control via the tuner connection mechanism When the engine start request indicated by the second signal is executed, the engine start is executed.

In addition, the tuner device of the present invention is externally connected to a start control device mounted on a vehicle, and upon receiving a signal wirelessly transmitted from a remote controller, inputs the engine start request to the start control device to start the engine of the vehicle.

According to the invention, the start control device can connect an external tuner capable of receiving a signal from the remote control with the tuning connection mechanism, either when receiving an engine start request based on a first signal from the remote control key, or when inputting a signal from the remote control. When an engine start request indicated by the second signal is requested, the engine can be started. Therefore, while the remote start can be performed using the remote control key, remote start using the remote control can be performed by connecting an external tuner as needed. In this case, a single start control device can be used for both the remote start using the key fob and the remote start using the remote controller. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a start control device that can improve functions as required while suppressing initial investment.

In addition, according to the present invention, the tuner device can be externally connected to the start control device mounted on the vehicle, and can start the engine of the vehicle by receiving a signal indicating an engine start request from the remote controller and inputting it to the start control device. Therefore, it is possible to provide a tuner device capable of improving the function of the start control device at a relatively low cost in a later incidental manner.

Detailed ways

Next, an in-vehicle system that is a preferred embodiment of the start control device and the two-way tuner of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

Conventionally, there are two types of in-vehicle systems for starting a vehicle engine, mechanical and electronic. In the mechanical type, the engine is started by inserting a key into a lock cylinder and turning the key manually. The electronic type is called the so-called push start (push start) method, and an engine start signal is generated by pressing a button. The present invention is applicable to both mechanical and electronic types. The application of the present invention to the mechanical type will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5 , and the application of the present invention to the electronic type will be described with reference to FIG. 6 .

FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of an in-vehicle system 10 including a start control device according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The in-vehicle system 10 is a mechanical system. As shown in the figure, in the vehicle system 10, a vehicle body ECU (Electrical Control Unit) 12 and an engine control ECU (so-called EFi) 15 are connected to a bus network 11.

Further, a remote key tuner 13 , a door lock motor 14 , and a remote start ECU 20 are connected to the vehicle body ECU 12 , and a vehicle immobilizer 16 is connected to the engine ECU 15 and the remote start ECU 20 .

In addition, a vehicle antitheft device amplifier 17 connected to the vehicle antitheft device 16 is arranged near a key cylinder 18 into which the vehicle key 5 is inserted.

The engine control ECU 15 is a control device that controls the overall operation of the engine (not shown). Specifically, the engine control ECU 15 starts operation corresponding to the connection with the ignition line (IG), and when it detects that the starting engine (not shown) starts to rotate corresponding to the connection with the starting line (ST), it performs fuel injection to the engine. Injection and ignition control to start and run the engine. Also, when the ignition line (IG) is disconnected, fuel injection is terminated to stop the engine.

Here, the engine control ECU 15 obtains information on the state of the engine, such as the engine speed, and uses it for engine control. Also, the engine control ECU 15 communicates with the vehicle body ECU 12 and the like via the bus network 11 , receives output information from the vehicle body ECU 12 , and transmits information to the vehicle body ECU 12 via the bus network 11 .

The vehicle anti-theft device 16 is a device for preventing the vehicle from being stolen. That is, the key 5 has a key code for authentication, and when the key 5 is inserted into the key cylinder 18, the vehicle anti-theft device 16 performs authentication using the key code. When the authentication fails, the vehicle anti-theft device 16 prohibits the starting of the engine, and releases the prohibition of starting only when the authentication succeeds.

The sequence when using the vehicle anti-theft device 16 to release the prohibition of starting the engine is as follows: first, the lock cylinder 18 detects the insertion of the key 5 and notifies the vehicle anti-theft device 16 (sequence 1). The vehicle anti-theft device 16 that has received the notification executes a key code transmission request to the vehicle anti-theft device amplifier 17 (procedure 2). Then, the vehicle anti-theft device amplifier 17 communicates wirelessly with the key 5, and the transponder (not shown) built in the key 5 reads the stored key code and sends it to the vehicle anti-theft device 16 (sequence 3). The vehicle anti-theft device 16 judges the consistency between the key code received from the vehicle anti-theft device amplifier 17 and its own pre-stored key code, and when it is determined that they match, the engine control ECU 15 is given permission to start the engine control ECU 15 as the authentication is successful, thereby canceling the start of the engine. Prohibited (order 4).

Therefore, when the user inserts the authenticated key 5 into the lock cylinder 18, the vehicle anti-theft device 16 automatically removes the prohibition of starting the engine. The auxiliary circuit (ACC) that manages the power supply of the engine is driven to start the engine, whereby the engine control ECU 15 performs fuel control and ignition control to start the engine. On the other hand, when an incorrect key is inserted into the lock cylinder 18, since the key code stored in the vehicle anti-theft device 16 cannot be obtained, the engine control ECU 15 is in a start prohibition state. Even when the engine is driven and started, the engine control ECU 15 does not operate, so that the engine does not start.

The vehicle body ECU 12 is a control device that controls the state of the vehicle body, and particularly performs locking and unlocking of doors (not shown) based on the operation control of the door lock motor 14 . Also, the vehicle body ECU 12 is connected to the key fob tuner 13 and the bus network 11 , outputs input information to the bus network 11 , and communicates with the engine control ECU 15 via the bus network 11 .

The key fob tuner 13 communicates with the key fob 1 via an antenna. The key fob 1 is a remote operation terminal held by a user, and transmits a request to lock and unlock a vehicle door to the vehicle-mounted system 10 and a request to output an alarm to people around the vehicle. The key 5 and the remote control key 1 can be two different keys, or can be integrated into one key.

When the vehicle body ECU 12 receives various vehicle control requests (door lock request, door open request, alarm request) from the key fob tuner 13, it performs control (door lock, door open, alarm request) based on the received control request, and at the same time, The received control request is sent to the remote start ECU 20 as it is.

The remote start ECU 20 performs processing to start the engine when the key 5 is not inserted into the key cylinder 18 , that is, when the user is outside the vehicle. At this time, in order to cancel the prohibition of starting the engine by the vehicle anti-theft device 16, the remote start ECU 20 stores authentication information having the same function as the key code held by the key 5 as the vehicle anti-theft code.

The remote start ECU 20 includes a command recognition unit 21 , a tuner connection unit 22 , and a main control unit 23 . The main control unit 23 further includes a door lock control unit 24 , a notification processing unit 25 , and a start control unit 26 .

The command recognition unit 21 performs a process of recognizing whether or not the control request received from the vehicle body ECU 12 constitutes a command. For example, when three door lock requests are made in succession (the first, the second short, and the third long), the instruction will recognize a series of requests as engine start requests, thus, by considering the combination of vehicle start requests as Command, then can use the remote control key 1 that originally only has the function of requesting the locking and unlocking of the door and sending an alarm to the surroundings of the vehicle to perform other controls (here, engine starting). In addition, the command shown here is just an example, and it can be changed suitably, and it is also possible to form the command which requests control other than engine start.

On the other hand, the tuner connection unit 22 is a connection device externally connected to the two-way tuner 3 . The tuner connection unit 22 includes a connector to which a transmission cable can be connected and a transmission circuit (not shown) that transmits signals. The bidirectional tuner 3 and the remote start ECU 20 are physically connected by a transmission cable (not shown) such as in-vehicle wiring, so that bidirectional communication is possible. This transmission cable is coupled to the connector of the tuner connection part 22 . The signal from the two-way tuner 3 is input to the tuner connection part 22 via this connector, and then transmitted to the main control part 23 through the transmission circuit of the tuner connection part 22 . As a transmission circuit, what is necessary is just to have the function of correctly transmitting a signal between a connector and the main controller 23. Therefore, the tuner connection part 22 can be designed with a relatively simple structure. That is, the tuner connection part 22 can be realized at low cost, and even if the remote start ECU20 has this tuner connection part 22, the cost of the remote start ECU20 will not increase significantly.

The two-way tuner 3 communicates with the two-way remote controller 2 through wireless communication. The communication distance of the two-way remote controller 2 is longer than that of the remote control key 1 . When the two-way tuner 3 receives a control request such as engine start from the two-way remote controller 2 , it inputs the received control request to the tuner connection unit 22 . In this way, the control request input to the tuner connection unit 22 is further input to the main control unit 23 through the tuner connection unit 22 . The two-way tuner 3 further receives a transmission request from the remote start ECU 20 through the tuner connection unit 22 , and transmits information such as vehicle status to the two-way remote controller 2 .

The two-way remote control 2 is different from the remote control key 1 in that it is a remote operation terminal assumed to perform remote control of the engine. Therefore, a dedicated operation button for sending the engine start request can be provided, and a control signal specially assigned to the engine start request can be sent .

Therefore, the remote start ECU 20 performs engine start control by the start control unit 26 both when the vehicle control request transmitted from the remote key 1 is an engine start command and when an engine start request is received from the two-way remote controller 2 . That is, the start control unit 26 can be used in both the remote start using the key fob and the remote start using the two-way remote controller 2 . Both the request signal from the key fob 1 and the request from the two-way remote controller 2 can be input to the start control unit 26 . In order to reliably input both signals, it is desirable to set the communication protocol for the request signal from the remote key 1 and the communication protocol for the request signal from the two-way remote controller 2 to different communication protocols.

Here, the procedure at the time of starting the engine by the start control unit 26 will be described. First, it is recognized that the engine start is requested from the remote control key 1 or the two-way remote control 2 (procedure 1). Next, the start request is received and the release request is executed in the vehicle antitheft device 16 (sequence 2). The vehicle anti-theft device 16 receives the release request and authenticates the remote start ECU 20. If the authentication is successful, the engine control ECU 15 is given permission to start, and at the same time, the remote start ECU 20 is notified to cancel the start prohibition (sequence 3). Thereafter, the remote start ECU 20 controls the start of the engine by operating the auxiliary circuit, the ignition circuit, and the starting circuit and outputting analog signals respectively (sequence 4).

Not only an engine start control request but also an arbitrary vehicle control request (door lock request, door open request, alarm request, etc.) may be sent from the two-way remote controller 2 . For example, when the two-way remote controller 2 transmits a door lock request and an unlock request, the door lock control unit 24 receives the control request and requests the vehicle body ECU 12 to lock and unlock the door. Similarly, when the two-way remote controller 2 transmits an alarm request, the main control unit 23 receives the control request, and requests the vehicle body ECU 12 to issue an alarm.

When the vehicle control request is received from the remote start ECU 20 , the body ECU 12 performs control (for example, operation control of the door lock motor 14 ) in the same manner as when receiving the vehicle control request from the key fob tuner 13 . Also, although the vehicle control request received from the key fob tuner 13 is notified from the vehicle body ECU 12 to the remote start ECU 20 , it is desirable not to notify the remote start ECU 20 of the vehicle control request received from the remote start ECU 20 .

In addition, information may be notified from the remote start ECU 20 to the two-way remote controller 2 . The notification of this information is carried out through the following process: the notification processing part 25 sends a signal representing the information to be notified to the two-way tuner 3 via the tuner connection part 22 and the transmission cable, and then the two-way tuner 3 transmits a signal to the two-way remote control through wireless communication. Device 2 sends this signal. As the contents of the notification, the control results of the start control unit 26 and the door lock control unit 24 , or arbitrary information about the vehicle such as the vehicle state and diagnostic information may be notified.

Regarding the notification of the control result, when an engine start request is received from the two-way remote controller 2 and start control is performed, the two-way remote controller 2 is notified of the control result. However, the remote key 1 does not have a function of receiving information when an engine start request command is received from the remote key 1 to perform start control. At this time, although the notification of the control result may not be performed, the two-way remote controller 2 may be notified of the result of the control by receiving the instruction from the remote key 1 .

Next, the processing operation according to the control request from the remote control key 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 2 . As shown in the figure, at first, the remote control key tuner 13 receives the signal sent by the remote control key 1 (step S101), the vehicle body ECU12 controls the door lock motor 14 according to the received signal, and at the same time, transmits the received signal to the remote start ECU20 (step S101). S102).

The command recognition unit 21 in the remote start ECU 20 judges whether the received signal constitutes a command (step S103 ), and if the command is not established (step S104 , No), the process ends as it is.

And if instruction is established (step S104, when), then start control part 26 executes start control (step S105) according to the instruction established, and notification processing part 25 notifies control result to two-way remote controller 2 (step S106), finishes processing. The locking and unlocking operations of the door can also be performed in the same manner.

Next, the processing operation in response to the control request from the two-way remote controller 2 will be described with reference to FIG. 3 . As shown in the figure, first, the two-way remote control tuner 3 receives the signal sent by the two-way remote control 2 (step S201), and the two-way tuner 3 verifies whether the signal is sent from a regular two-way remote control (step S202). This authentication is performed based on whether or not the authentication code included in the signal transmitted from the two-way remote controller 2 matches the authentication code stored in advance in the two-way tuner 3 .

When this authentication fails (when it cannot be confirmed that the signal is sent from a legitimate controller) (step S203, No), this process is terminated as it is.

And when the authentication is successful (when it can be confirmed that it is a signal sent from a regular controller) (step S203, Yes), the two-way tuner 3 transmits the received signal to the remote start ECU 20 via the tuner connection part 22 (step S204).

The start control unit 26 of the remote start ECU 20 executes start control based on the received signal (step S205), the notification processing unit 2 notifies the two-way remote controller 2 of the control result (step S206), and ends the process. The locking and unlocking operations of the door can also be performed in the same manner.

The two-way tuner 3 and the two-way remote controller 2 may be built into the in-vehicle system 10 instead of being provided outside the in-vehicle system 10 . In addition, the two-way tuner 3 is not limited to always being connected to the tuner connection part 22 .

In the state where the two-way tuner 3 is not connected, the engine can be remotely started by the remote control key 1, and if the two-way tuner 3 is connected, the two-way remote control 2 can be used for remote start.

In this way, the engine start control can be performed regardless of whether the two-way tuner 3 is connected, and the processing operation of the remote start ECU 20 is the same regardless of whether the two-way tuner 3 is connected.

Therefore, the cost of the in-vehicle system 10 can be suppressed by not connecting the bidirectional tuner 3 in the initial state. That is, the user can easily connect the two-way tuner 3 to the tuner connection part 22 at a later stage as needed.

Here, although the two-way remote controller 2 is authenticated at the two-way tuner 3 , this authentication may be performed at the remote start ECU 20 .

When the two-way tuner 3 is connected, in addition to extending the distance that can be started remotely, information can also be provided to the user, which is also an aspect of function improvement. As information provided to the user, in addition to the control results of the remote control, there are also the status of the vehicle at that time, specifically, the operating status of the engine, the opening and closing status of the doors and windows, the room temperature, whether there is an abnormality, etc. announcement of. In addition, diagnostic information such as abnormal stop history of the engine may be notified.

FIG. 4 shows a specific example of diagnostic information indicating the cause of engine stop. As shown in the figure, when the engine is started by remote operation, the check engine indicator lamp lights up when the door is opened, when the door is unlocked, when the engine room cover is opened, when the shift lever is other than P, and when the brake is operated. When the rotation speed of the engine is abnormal, or when the vehicle speed is abnormal, the engine is not started, and if the engine is in operation, it is stopped.

The engine stop history is stored inside the remote start ECU 20 , and can be sent in response to a request from the two-way remote controller 2 .

Here, the diagnostic information managed by the remote start ECU 20 has been described as an example. However, diagnostic information other than the remote start managed by another ECU may be acquired and transmitted to the two-way remote controller 2 .

Next, a specific structural example of the two-way tuner will be described with reference to FIG. 5 . In the configuration example shown in the figure, the two-way tuner 3 includes a control microcomputer 31 , a communication interface 32 , an EEP-ROM 33 , a receiver 34 a , a transmitter 34 b and a switch 35 .

The microcomputer 31 for control is a control part which controls the two-way tuner 3 as a whole, and has an authentication function which authenticates the two-way remote controller 2 which is a transmission source of a signal. In addition, the communication interface 32 is an interface for transmitting and receiving data with the remote start ECU 20 . The communication interface 32 is physically externally connected to the tuner connection unit 22 of the remote start ECU 20 via a transmission cable, so that the two-way tuner 3 and the remote start ECU 20 can communicate bidirectionally. Specifically, a signal indicating a vehicle control request such as an engine start control request is transmitted from the bidirectional tuner 3 to the remote start ECU 20 via a transmission cable. On the other hand, a control result based on a vehicle control request or a signal indicating other vehicle-related information is transmitted from the remote start ECU 20 to the bidirectional tuner 3 via a transmission cable. In this way, the transmission cable can be applied to two-way communication, however, the transmission path may consist of one path or a plurality of paths. In addition, EEP-ROM 33 is a storage area for storing authentication codes and the like.

The receiver 34 a and the transmitter 34 b are specifically composed of an IC 34 . The receiver 34 a performs reception processing of information from the two-way remote controller 2 , and the transmitter 34 b performs transmission processing to the remote controller 2 .

In addition, the transmission process and the reception process are switched by the switch 35, and switching of the switch 35 is performed by the control signal from the microcomputer 31 for control.

Fig. 6 is a schematic configuration diagram of an in-vehicle system 10a having a start control device according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The in-vehicle system 10a is an electronic system. In the mechanism shown in the figure, the vehicle-mounted system 10 a is connected to a bus network 11 with a vehicle body ECU 12 , an engine control ECU 15 , a check ECU 41 , and a power supply ECU 42 .

Further, a door lock motor 14 and a remote start ECU 20 are connected to the vehicle body ECU 12 , and a key fob tuner 13 is connected to a verification ECU 41 .

A plurality of antennas (only one is shown in FIG. 6 for convenience) respectively arranged inside and outside the vehicle are connected to the remote key tuner 13 for communicating with the remote key 1 and outputting received signals from the remote key 1 , and information indicating which antenna was used for reception.

The checking ECU 41 is an ECU with the function of the vehicle anti-theft device 16 in FIG. Engine start inhibit/release. In addition, the checking ECU 41 electronically confirms whether the remote control key 1 is an authentic key by checking the key code held by the remote control key 1 .

The power supply ECU 42 is a control device in charge of starting control of the engine control ECU 15. It is connected to the push switch 43 instead of the key-based engine start operation, and is connected to the engine control ECU to perform auxiliary circuit (ACC), ignition circuit (IG), Control of the start line (ST).

The procedure for starting the engine by the operation of the push switch 43 will be described. First, the key fob tuner 13 communicates with the key fob 1, and when the verification ECU 41 detects that the key fob 1 is in the vehicle, authentication of the key fob 1 is performed ( order 1). If the authentication is successful, permission to start is given to the engine control ECU 15 , thereby canceling the prohibition of starting the engine (procedure 2). Then, when the user operates the push switch 43, the power supply ECU 42 controls the auxiliary circuit (ACC), the ignition circuit (IG), and the starter circuit (ST) to start the engine (sequence 3).

Also in this in-vehicle system 10a, the configuration of the remote start ECU 20 is the same as that of the in-vehicle system 10 shown in FIG. 1, and performs the same operation. Therefore, the cost of the in-vehicle system 10a can be suppressed by not connecting the bidirectional tuner 3 in the initial state. Further, the remote control key 1 can be used for remote starting. The user can easily connect the two-way tuner 3 to the tuner connection part 22 at a later stage as needed, thereby improving the in-vehicle system 10a.

As described above, in the in-vehicle system of this embodiment, it is possible to provide a start control device and a tuner device, which are provided with the command recognition unit 21 and the tuner connection unit 22 in the remote start ECU 20, even when the remote control key 1 receives In the case of an engine start request as a combination of engine start requests, start control can be performed in the same manner as when the engine control request is received from the two-way remote controller 2, and at the same time, the two-way tuner 3 can be easily attached , which not only controls the initial investment, but also improves the function according to the needs. In addition, in the above-described embodiment, the two-way remote controller 2 and the tuner 3 may be configured for two-way communication, but they may also be configured for one-way communication from the two-way remote controller 2 to the tuner 3 .

As described above, the start control device of the present invention can be effectively applied to the start control of a vehicle, and is also suitable for cost reduction and function improvement in the onboard remote start function.
