Detailed description of the invention
To roll away from from parking stall exemplarily to further describe with vehicle and handle according to assistance of the present invention.
At this, just when lay-by or sudden stop band roll away from, apparatus of the present invention are offered help in this point to chaufeur, and first this device is born when vehicle advances or move backward and turned to task (" auto-steering function "); In addition, considering in vehicle location and deflection angle situation, when " next step " can leave parking stall (" helping to determine function "), illustrating to chaufeur give a signal in the schedule time.Still apply to control to vehicle by acceleration and abrupt deceleration vehicle at this chaufeur, finally determine whether rolled away from from parking stall by vehicle by chaufeur.
What the first vivid explanation of accompanying drawing 1a to 1d was assisted by apparatus of the present invention rolls parking stall process away from.According to Fig. 1 a, in an initial condition, vehicle 10 is located in the parking stall 15 vehicle forward direction is between the vehicle 20 at rear and the vehicle 30 being in front in vehicle forward direction, and adjacent with track 40.
Simultaneously according to Fig. 1 a, what chaufeur made apparatus of the present invention determine expectation by operation turnicator driving lever rolls direction away from.Then when being linked into D Drive, by assisting the device handled to realize towards the direction auto-steering (see Fig. 1 b) in selected track 40, otherwise, when being linked into reverse gear automatically towards the directional steering (see Fig. 1 c) away from selected track 40.
Finally shown in Fig. 1 d usually in the situation that several times advance and occur after reversing, in this case, current vehicle location can when keeping realizing rolling away from from parking stall 15 at " next step " when safe enough distance with front vehicles 30.After the change MLP preferably in the end implemented (namely in this example from reverse gear is finally converted to D Drive after), illustrate this situation to chaufeur give a signal at once.The signal element herein adopted such as can be designed to send visual signal (such as notifying accordingly by generating over the display, lighting control lamp etc.) or also can send audible signal.For assisting the device handled also to bear the task of auto-steering during " last rolls step away from " and chaufeur accelerating vehicle 10, and at chaufeur from after parking stall 15 is left and when entering wagon flow, this device stops the automatic control to turning to again.
Owing to freeing from the task that active operation turns on the one hand rolling in the process of parking stall chaufeur away from, also to go difficulty to estimate under noting be used in the situation of parking that sometimes can't see panorama on the other hand: " whether will worry when vehicle is rolled away from from parking stall to bump against with Adjacent vehicles ", so chaufeur can roll away from by the pedestrian that its attention is all used for wagon flow and may occurs in the process of parking stall, while making the driver comfort of chaufeur be maximized, significantly improving traffic safety thus.
Below, composition graphs 2 to Fig. 5 for the aforementioned exemplary rolling parking stall process away from describe according to an embodiment, the method applied by apparatus of the present invention, the method is being rolled the position of object to be seen in the process of parking stall or obstacle (in this example: front vehicles 30) away from for estimating and predicted is rolling the vehicle route in the process of parking stall away from for determining.
Combine at this object model first further described to estimate in the position rolling object to be seen or obstacle (in this example: front vehicles 30) in the process of parking stall away from.
For this reason Fig. 2 with schematic diagram illustrate detected by the sensor 11 (normally ultrasonic transduter) be arranged on vehicle 10 and be simplified the sensors field 50 illustrated, the object to be seen " O " (in this example: front vehicles 30) equally only schematically shown or obstacle are positioned within sensors field 50.According to the distance value only determined one-dimensionally by sensor 11, sensor 11 self also cannot infer (two dimension) position of object " O " or obstacle.
But according to the present invention, carry out parallel parsing according to Fig. 3 multiple (in this example four) sensors field 51-54 to sensor (such as ultrasonic transduter) 11-14.At this, each distance value of sensor 11,12,13 or 14 is assigned to some P1, P2, P3 or P4 on the axis of respective sensor field 51,52,53 or 54.
Point P1, P2, P3 or P4 of belonging to adjacent sensors field 51-54 are connected to each other respectively by straight line, determine the respective two-dimensional equation of straight line (Geradengleichung) of straight line shown in broken lines in figure 3 here.These equation of straight line are based on the range signal of sensor 11-14 and consider the position of sensor 11-14 on vehicle 10.Combined the curve obtained to identify with " G " by multiple linear portion.
When estimating position or the distance of object to be seen (front vehicles 30) in the foregoing manner in conjunction with object model, rear axle uses wheel steering angle sensor to calculate the relative position of vehicle 10, thus calculate object to be seen or obstacle (such as front vehicles 30) in the system of axes can fixed in space and can suppose that it is constant.
In the next step, determine predicted rolling the vehicle route in the process of parking stall away from conjunction with single-track model (Einspurmodell) based on wheelbase, vehicle dimension and current deflection angle.In order to determine that deflection angle can use steering angle sensor.
As schematically shown in Fig. 4, such as, calculate the center of turn " C " of vehicle 10 in conjunction with Ackermann steering geom (Ackermann-Lenkgeometrie), and predict the external envelope curve " E " of vehicle 10 based on current steering angle with this.
Finally, based on shown in Fig. 3 by connect straight line formed curve " G " and Fig. 4 shown in prediction external envelope curve " E " between comparison, decision vehicle 10 whether can leave parking stall 15 at " next step ".
By inquiry " whether curve G and external envelope curve E has one or more point of contact or point of crossing ", whether can leave the judgement on parking stall 15 as decision vehicle 10.If curve " G " and external envelope curve " E " do not have point of contact or point of crossing, then illustrate this situation by means of signal element to chaufeur give a signal, thus chaufeur himself can determine from parking stall 15 outgoing vehicles 10.In this case, for assisting the device handled preferably in " last rolls step away from " or the task of also bearing auto-steering during chaufeur accelerating vehicle 10, and at chaufeur from after parking stall 15 is left and when entering wagon flow, this device stops the automatic control to turning to again.
