Fig. 1 is the structure chart for indicating motorcycle tilting detection device.The engine 2 of motorcycle 1 is that such as capacity is 50cc Four-cycle, single-cylinder petrol engine is the traveling power source of motorcycle.Hereinafter, motorcycle 1 is also referred to as vehicle 1, vehicle 1 The such expression of vehicle body is suitably used in the related statement at inclination angle when toppling over.
The dumping detecting device 4 of vehicle 1 is by the acceleration that the ECU of control engine 26 at (control unit) and is arranged in ECU6 Sensor 8 etc. is spent to constitute.ECU6 has processor, is executed by processor and topples over the journey for determining to control for realizing aftermentioned Sequence plays the role of judging unit.Acceleration transducer 8 is used for the tiltangleθ i in dumping detecting device 4 based on vehicle body To determine whether vehicle 1 topples over.Specifically, ECU6 topples over judgement control by the way that execution is aftermentioned, it is based on acceleration transducer 8 Each acceleration A cc detected determines whether vehicle 1 inclines based on the calculated tiltangleθ i to calculate tiltangleθ i .
Fig. 2 is the concept map for indicating the detection axis and detection direction of acceleration transducer 8.It is not inclined that Fig. 2 shows vehicle bodies The case where when under upright state from the forward observation acceleration transducer 8 of vehicle 1.Bodywork height direction Dh and vertical direction Y phase Together, vehicle-body width direction Dw is identical as horizontal direction X.Acceleration transducer 8 has 2 detection axises 10A, 10B.Each detection axis 10A, 10B are greater than 0 ° less than 90 ° with angle of cut θ c of acute angle, in other words with vertical direction Y under the not inclined upright state of vehicle body The angle of cut θ c intersection.
In the case where Fig. 2, angle of cut θ c is 45 °.Then, acceleration transducer 8 is when vehicle body is in upright state, along Each detection axis 10A, 10B and towards vehicle-body width direction Dh left and right lower section detection direction on detect vehicle body acceleration Acc respectively. That is, each detection axis 10A, 10B direction indicated by an arrow in Fig. 2 is detection direction, lower section is that acceleration A cc increases to the left and right The direction of (+), top is the direction that acceleration A cc reduces (-) to the left and right.
Fig. 3 is the figure for indicating the gas type acceleration transducer 8A for embodying an example of acceleration transducer 8.Fig. 3 table From the gas of the forward observation present embodiment of vehicle 1 under the not inclined upright state of vehicle body in the same manner as showing with Fig. 2 the case where The case where when formula acceleration transducer 8A.Bodywork height direction Dh is identical as vertical direction Y, vehicle-body width direction Dw and level side It is identical to X.In addition, illustrating to be limited to present embodiment to it since gas type acceleration transducer 8A is well-known technique Explanation needed in range, and omit the detailed description to principle etc..
Gas type acceleration transducer 8A has rectangular housing 12 when from the forward observation of vehicle 1, has 4 angles Portion 12a.Rectangular space 14 is formed in shell 12, mobile gas can be carried out based on body sway angle θ i by being inside filled with G.4 corner 14a are formed in rectangular space 14.The center of rectangular space 14 is configured with the heater heated to gas G 16.Each corner 14a of rectangular space 14 is each configured with the temperature sensing of the temperature of the gas G after detection is heated by heater 16 Device 18.
Gas type acceleration transducer 8A detects the heat of the gas G after being heated by heater 16 using each temperature sensor 18 Transmitting, and then detect Temperature Distribution, so that it is determined that in rectangular space 14 gas G position and movement speed, and detect vehicle body and incline Along each acceleration A cc of the vehicle body of each detection axis 10A, 10B when tiltedly.
Here, as shown in figure 3, in gas type acceleration transducer 8A, under the not inclined upright state of vehicle body, the phase of shell 12 To a pair of of corner 12a be located at vertical direction Y, that is, bodywork height direction Dh.
In other words, the gas type acceleration transducer 8A of present embodiment is distributed in 14 bottom of rectangular space with gas G The gradient of corner 14a be configured at vehicle body.To even if a little laterally rolling occurs for vehicle body in the case where vehicle body is in upright state Dynamic, gas G will not be moved exceedingly on X in the horizontal direction, but steadily stay in corner 14a, and then accelerate gas type The output (detected value) for spending each acceleration A cc of sensor 8A is stablized.
On the other hand, existing gas type acceleration transducer is usually under the not inclined upright state of vehicle body with Fig. 3 In the gas type acceleration transducer 8A that sees turn over 45 ° of gradient and be configured at vehicle body.In this case, shell 12 is adjacent Corner 12a is located at horizontal direction X, that is, vehicle-body width direction Dw, gas G be distributed in 14 lower part of rectangular space adjacent corner 14a it Between.
In addition, each detection axis 10A, 10B is arranged respectively along horizontal direction X, vertical direction Y.Therefore, in the prior art In the case where, when vehicle body is in, and a little transverse shakiness occurs under upright state, gas G is easy, gas mobile to horizontal direction X The output of each acceleration A cc of formula acceleration transducer 8A, which can become, increases the unstable of noise because of vehicle body transverse shakiness Value.
Fig. 4 is indicated the figure of the static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B of another materialization of acceleration transducer 8.Figure 4 indicate with Fig. 2, Fig. 3 the case where in the same manner as under the not inclined upright state of vehicle body from the forward observation present embodiment of vehicle 1 Static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B when the case where.Bodywork height direction Dh is identical as vertical direction Y, vehicle-body width direction Dw It is identical as horizontal direction X.In addition, illustrating to be limited to it since static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B is well-known technique In range needed for description of the present embodiment, and omit the detailed description to principle etc..
Static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B has substrate 20, fixed fixation electrode 22 on the base plate 20 and can Mobile movable electrode 24 is carried out based on body sway angle θ i.Movable electrode 24 is located at the center of substrate 20, from movable electrode 24 Periphery radially protrude multiple movable plate 24a.Each movable plate 24a prolongs with being parallel to each detection axis 10A, 10B Stretch setting.
In addition, movable electrode 24 is fixed on the base plate 20 by 4 spring portion 24c.Each spring portion 24c configuration is in movable electricity The left and right of the upper and lower and horizontal direction X of the vertical direction Y of pole 24, to allow movable electrode 24 in prescribed limit up and down Interior movement.On the other hand, fixed electrode 22 has fixed multiple fixed polar plate 22a on the base plate 20.Fixed polar plate 22a with can Movable plate electrode 24a opposite configuration respectively, and be extended with being parallel to each detection axis 10A, 20B.
Also, static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B passes through detection the distance between fixed polar plate 22a and movable plate 24a Variation, come each acceleration A cc when detecting body sway along the vehicle body of each detection axis 10A, 10B.Present embodiment as a result, Static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B is with fixed substrate 22a and movable plate 24a under the not inclined upright state of vehicle body along each The gradient of detection axis 10A, 10B is configured at vehicle body.
Configure fixed polar plate 22a and movable plate 24a in this way, the gravity of movable electrode 24 and can for resisting The elastic force of the spring portion 24c of the gravity of moving electrode 24 works all along vertical direction Y.Thus, vertical is in vehicle body Even if a little lateral wobble occurs under state, movable plate 24a will not be excessively mobile on X in the horizontal direction, and position is stablized, in turn Stablize the output of each acceleration A cc of static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B.
On the other hand, existing static capacitive acceleration transducer is usually under the not inclined upright state of vehicle body to scheme The gradient that the static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B seen in 4 turns over 45 ° is configured at vehicle body.In this case, movable electrode 24 gravity to the lower section of vertical direction Y act on, and the elastic force of spring portion 24c to vertical direction Y and horizontal direction X at The direction effect of 45 ° of intersections.
In addition, each detection axis 10A, 10B is arranged respectively along horizontal direction X, vertical direction Y.Therefore, in the prior art In the case where, when vehicle body is in, and a little transverse shakiness occurs under upright state, movable electrode 24 and movable plate 24a are easy Mobile to horizontal direction X, the output of each acceleration A cc of static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B can become because of vehicle body transverse shakiness And increase the unstable value of noise.
In addition, the output of each acceleration A cc travels on the very poor road of road conditions or shock by step etc. in vehicle 1 In the case of, it is also possible to become to increase the unstable value of noise because vehicle body longitudinally rocks.And in the present embodiment, lead to Aftermentioned limitation processing (step S1, S3 of Fig. 5) and weighted average processing are crossed, can reduce the noise.
In the following, being illustrated referring to Fig. 5 to the flow chart for toppling over judgement control that ECU6 is executed.This topple over judgement control In system, premised on the respective angle of cut θ c of each detection axis 10A, 10B is 45 °, detected based on acceleration transducer 8 at this time Each acceleration A cc calculates tiltangleθ i, therefore, it is determined that whether vehicle 1 topples over.
Specifically, first in step sl, determining each detection that acceleration transducer 8 detects after this control starts Whether each acceleration A cc of axis 10A, 10B are all being greater than in regulation acceleration range of the 0mG less than 1500mG.Step S1's sentences It surely is to exclude to exist vehicle 1 by the sharply increase and decrease of acceleration A cc caused by the vibration that is subject to whens the step etc. on road surface Toppling over except determine object for vehicle 1 and carry out.In addition, above-mentioned regulation acceleration range is based on each detection axis 10A, 10B Respective angle of cut θ c is 45 ° of this case to determine.
When determining result for "Yes", i.e., each acceleration A cc of each detection axis 10A, 10B meets 0mG < Acc < When 1500mG, each acceleration A cc that acceleration transducer 8 detects becomes the gravity direction generated when vehicle 1 is toppled over i.e. Each detection axis 10A, 10B shown in Fig. 2+direction on vector, then move to step S2.
On the other hand, when determining result for "No", i.e., at least one in each acceleration A cc of each detection axis 10A, 10B When a acceleration is unsatisfactory for 0mG < Acc < 1500mG, determine that each acceleration A cc detected becomes what vehicle 1 generated when toppling over Vector on the opposite direction in gravity direction, that is, each detection axis 10A, 10B shown in Fig. 2-direction, then moves to step S3.In this case, it is contemplated that be vehicle 1 at a slant or temporarily by road surface step etc. situation.
In step S2, body sway angle θ i is calculated using aftermentioned method, then moves to step S4.
In step S3, determine whether the time t1 of state of each acceleration A cc except regulation acceleration range continue for being 0.5 The the more than stipulated time of second.
When determining result for "Yes", step S2 is moved to, after calculating body sway angle θ i, moves to step S4.It is another Aspect determines that vehicle 1 is interim inclination or temporarily by road surface step, again returns to step when determining result for "No" Whether S1 determines each acceleration A cc in regulation acceleration range.
In step S4, whether calculated body sway angle θ i is at 65 ° of defined upper limit threshold or more in determination step S2. When determining result for "Yes", step S5 is moved to.On the other hand, when determining result for "No", sentenced according to tiltangleθ i It is disconnected, and determine that vehicle 1 is not toppled over, step S1 is again returned to, determines each acceleration A cc whether in regulation acceleration range.
In step S5, whether the judgement result of determination step S4 continue for preset time (example for the case where "Yes" Such as 3 seconds) more than.When determining result for "Yes", determine that vehicle body 1 is toppled over, this control terminates.After being determined as that vehicle body 1 is toppled over, ECU6 carries out stopping the processing such as engine 2, so that driver or contactant are involved in wheel etc. when preventing vehicle 1 from toppling over, to ensure Safety.On the other hand, when determining result for "No", determine that vehicle 1 is not toppled over, again return to step S1, determine each acceleration Acc is spent whether in regulation acceleration range.
Fig. 6 is the explanatory diagram of the body sway angle θ i calculation method in step S2.Fig. 6 is shown when vehicle 1 is toppled over from vehicle 1 Forward observation acceleration transducer 8 when the case where.Bodywork height direction Dh intersects with vertical direction Y, vehicle-body width direction Dw Intersect with horizontal direction X.In the case of fig. 6, acceleration transducer 8 detects the+vector A in direction on detection axis 10A Acceleration A cc detects-the acceleration A cc, vector A, B of these acceleration As cc of the vector B in direction on detection axis 10B Synthesis can be expressed as towards the vector C below vertical direction Y.
Then, ECU6 calculates vector C, in other words using the arctan function for each acceleration A cc for forming vector A, B It is the angle of cut of vertical direction Y and detection axis 10A as calculating angle Δ θ i.Calculating angle Δ θ i is 20 ° in the case where such as Fig. 6. Then, ECU6 calculates the sum of angle of cut θ c (45 °) of calculating angle Δ θ i (20 °) and detection axis 10A and bodywork height direction Dh and makees For tiltangleθ i (65 °).The upper limit threshold of the step S4 for the toppling over judgement control tiltangleθ i calculated at this time shown in Fig. 5 More than (65 °), therefore, it is determined that toppling over for vehicle 1.
In addition, determining in control toppling over, the correction process that angle of cut θ c is also carried out in the initial setting before starting is controlled.Tool For body, the vector of each acceleration A cc of each detection axis 10A, 10B when ECU6 is based on placing that ECU6 is horizontal are calculated each at this time The angle of cut θ c of detection axis 10A, 10B is as measured value.The measured value of angle of cut θ c is counted by the study processing executed by ECU6 It calculates.
Then, it is determined that the measured value of calculated angle of cut θ c with as angle of cut θ c expected value and scheduled angle (45 °) Difference acceleration is passed as the deviation of the angle of cut θ c of each detection axis 10A, 10B and based on the deviation of identified angle of cut θ c Each acceleration A cc that sensor 8 detects, which is corrected to angle of cut θ c, does not have each acceleration A cc that should be detected in the case where deviation. That is, the vector for each acceleration A cc that acceleration transducer 8 detects is decomposed according to the angle of the deviation of angle of cut θ c, from And calculating angle of cut θ c does not have each acceleration A cc that should be detected in the case where deviation.Then, by each acceleration after the correction Acc is used to topple over the calculating of the judgement for the step S1 for determining control and the body sway angle θ i of step S2.
Moreover, determining in control toppling over, the filtering processing of acceleration A cc is also carried out.Specifically, to acceleration sensing Multiple acceleration A cc that device 8 detects are weighted and averaged respectively, and each acceleration A cc after weighted average is used to topple over and is sentenced Surely the calculating of the body sway angle θ i of the judgement and step S2 of the step S1 controlled.Determine to use in control specifically, toppling over Each acceleration A cc be acceleration A cc (n) by detecting this multiplied by the value obtained after regulation weight WGT with it is previous Value that the secondary acceleration A cc (n-1) detected is obtained after the value multiplied by (1- weight WGT) is added and calculated.Weight WGT quilt It provides in the range of being greater than 0 less than 1, such as is applicable in 0.5 value.
As described above, in the dumping detecting device 4 of the vehicle 1 of present embodiment, acceleration transducer 8 have vehicle body not 2 detection axises 10A, 10B intersected under inclined upright state with vertical direction Y with the angle of cut θ c of acute angle.Also, acceleration passes Sensor 8 is along each detection axis 10A, 10B and towards detecting vehicle respectively in the detection direction below the left and right of vehicle-body width direction Dh Body acceleration A cc.Each detection axis 10A, 10B when vehicle body upright state is not Y and horizontal direction along vertical direction as a result, X setting, but be arranged with intersecting with vertical direction Y and horizontal direction X, so as to which acceleration transducer 8 is steady with its output Fixed posture is arranged 1 on vehicle, even if a little lateral wobble occurs when vehicle body upright state, the output of acceleration transducer 8 It is also stable, it is not easy to be influenced by the noise generated by vehicle body lateral wobble.
Specifically, when vehicle body upright state, in the case where gas type acceleration transducer 8A shown in Fig. 3, gas G Distribution stablize, in the case where static capacitive acceleration transducer 8B shown in Fig. 4, the position of movable plate 24a is stablized, into And it is able to suppress each acceleration A cc and excessive variation occurs.Thus, in present embodiment, acceleration transducer 8 can be reduced The noise of output itself, therefore can be improved the judgement precision toppled over and determine control.
Determine in control in addition, toppling over, each detection axis 10A, 10B that acceleration transducer 9 detects in step sl In the case that each acceleration A cc is judged as in regulation acceleration range, body sway angle θ i is calculated in step s 2, then Determine that vehicle body 1 is toppled in the case that tiltangleθ i is upper limit threshold or more in step S4 later.In present embodiment, pass through Using the determination step in above-mentioned two stage, vehicle 1 can be toppled over temporarily by road surface step etc. other than the case where definitely It forecloses, therefore the judgement precision toppled over and determine control can be further increased.
Determine in control in addition, toppling over, each detection axis 10A, 10B that acceleration transducer 8 detects in step sl At least one acceleration is judged as except regulation acceleration range, only in step in each acceleration A cc State of at least one acceleration except regulation acceleration range in S3 in each acceleration A cc continue for the stipulated time or more In the case where, body sway angle θ i is just calculated in step s 2, and tiltangleθ i is upper limit threshold in step S4, S5 later In the case that above state continue for the stipulated time, it is determined as that vehicle body 1 is toppled over.
Thus, for example causing each acceleration A cc to become-direction but this shape by road surface step despite vehicle 1 In the case that state continues the stipulated time, it can be determined as that vehicle 1 is toppled over according to tiltangleθ i.To, for example, will not exclude vehicle 1 with The situation etc. toppled over after complicated posture left-right rotation, can detect toppling over for vehicle 1 under a wide range of situation.
Determine in control in addition, toppling over, is carried out by using to angle of cut θ c each acceleration A cc that is corrected that treated Determine, topples over the judgement precision for determining control so as to further increase.
Determine in control in addition, toppling over, it is each after such filtering processing by using being weighted and averaged to each acceleration A cc Acceleration A cc is determined, is temporarily increased caused by vibration when so as to prevent vehicle 1 through road surface step Acceleration A cc error detection is that vehicle 1 is toppled over.
An embodiment of the invention is illustrated above, but the present invention is not limited thereto, is not departing from this hair In the range of bright technical concept, various modifications may be made.
As long as example, the angle of cut θ c acute angle of detection axis 10A, 10B and vertical direction Y, however it is not limited to 45 °.In addition, toppling over Determine the acceleration range of acceleration A cc used in control, calculates angle Δ θ i, the upper limit threshold of tiltangleθ i, stipulated time The value of t1 etc. can carry out various changes according to the specification of acceleration transducer 8 or dumping detecting device 4.In addition, acceleration The type of sensor 8 is not limited to the gas type acceleration transducer 8A enumerated as concrete example and static capacitive acceleration passes Sensor 8B.
