For being equipped with the vehicle that enters and start system without key, due to vehicle difference, its PEPS controller mainly contains two kinds of mounting meanss: the one, and described PEPS controller is integrated in the vehicle-mounted computer of former vehicle; Another kind is to configure and enter and startup system without key on existing vehicle, and this enters with the PEPS controller 16 that starts system and be connected with vehicle-mounted computer without key.Therefore, in car trunk automatic opening system of the present utility model, described central control module comprises the PEPS controller 16 that concentrates on vehicle-mounted computer, or described central control module comprises vehicle-mounted computer and the PEPS controller 16 being connected with described vehicle-mounted computer.PEPS controller 16 due to what play in fact control action in the utility model, needs for convenience, described central control module can be considered PEPS controller 16, and represents syndeton and the principle of work of the described central control module of explanation in this car trunk automatic opening system with PEPS controller 16 hereinafter.
In the utility model, described authentication module is the Intelligent key 18 that car owner 14 is that carry and described PEPS system matches.
In order to realize the annexation between described PEPS controller 16 and described Intelligent key 18, described PEPS controller 16 is also connected with low-frequency antenna 17 and high frequency antenna (not shown), with low-frequency antenna (not shown) in described Intelligent key 18 and described high frequency antenna (not shown) correspondence establishment communication link to carry out signal transmission.In addition, described authentication module is interpreted as that those skilled in the art can realize flexibly, can carry out two-way communication and differentiate to reach authority with PEPS controller 16 any member of object.
The boot actuator 20 that described boot control module comprises BCM19 and controlled by this BCM19, described BCM19 is connected communication by CAN bus with PEPS controller 16.Certainly, those skilled in the art also can be considered as same member by described BCM19 and boot actuator 20, thereby or directly control described boot actuator 20 by described PEPS controller 16 boot actuator 20 is considered as to boot control module (19,20).That is to say, so-called boot control module, in the utility model, be interpreted as that those skilled in the art can realize flexibly, the electric signal unpacking sign that is derived from PEPS controller 16 is converted to the Electricity and machine conversion building blocks of function that drives described boot lid 15 to carry out mechanical breakdown action.
1 detecting of described control module this to capacitive sensing part by due to external interference source and the capacitance causing changes, in the time that capacitance changes, control module 1 sends command signal to described PEPS controller 16, PEPS controller 16 activates low-frequency antenna 17, described low-frequency antenna 17 is launched low frequency signal and is received to activate car owner 14 Intelligent key 18 with it to the built-in aerial of Intelligent key 18, Intelligent key 18 is with PEPS controller 16 then set up high-frequency signal passage and carry out authentication to complete authentication procedure, after the Intelligent key 18 being activated is successful by PEPS controller 16 authentications, described PEPS controller 16 sends and drives the car body controller 19 of signal to described boot control module according to this command signal, drive boot actuator 20 to open this car tail case lid 15 with the car body controller 19 by this boot control module.
Two capacitive sensing parts (2 in described sensing device 100; 3), utilize micro-capacitance principle, mutually close with it external interference source is made to the variation feedback in capacitance.Capacitive sensing part is installed in the plane or curved surface that automobile tail inner side provides.Mounting structure in conjunction with aforementioned sensing device 100 on rear bumper 13, because rear bumper 13 is generally the installment state perpendicular to ground, so provide interior lateral surface, so two capacitive sensing parts can be arranged on the medial surface that rear bumper provides.Because capacitive sensing part is linear structure, be wire or banded conductor formation, generally adopt flexible wire to realize, there is extensible feature of arranging flexibly, thereby can adapt to the change of shape of rear bumper 13 medial surfaces, fixing with plastic plate button or electrical adhesive tape.
In theory, when described two capacitive sensing parts be arranged in parallel, the detecting effect of sensor device 100 is the most accurate.But the plane providing due to automobile tail inner side or curved surface exist in the installation process that is unfavorable for factor that sensor device 100 is installed or sensor device 100 and have alignment error, cause described two capacitive sensing parts can not strict parallel installation.Therefore, described two capacitive sensing parts almost parallel in the error range of demarcating is installed and is also allowed, and described error range can be demarcated according to the actual service condition of sensor device by those skilled in the art.
As previously mentioned, capacitive sensing part 2 is made up of flexible material conductor, and then two wires are closed up and extend and arrange in the same way, forms the arranged side by side relation that arranges, and this is applied to voltage to conductor, and this form micro-electric capacity to conductor (9,10).In theory, a capacitive sensing part only needs a wire can form over the ground micro-electric capacity, but is combined and obviously can be strengthened the stability of micro-electric capacity by two wires, thereby improves the degree of accuracy detecting.
Control module 1 in described sensor device, as previously mentioned, mainly play the external interference source whether detection exists the capacitance of interference capacitors induction pieces to change, and the character of external interference source is made a determination, to determine whether to exist the unpacking action instruction of human body, thereby external unit is provided and characterizes the signal that has this instruction.This control module 1 comprises power module, signal processing module, Logic control module and adjustment of sensitivity module.
Refer to Fig. 2, described electric power source pair of module input voltage carries out lowering and stabilizing blood pressure processing, for the work of whole sensor device 100 provides power support.Preferably, control module 1 is provided with positive source input end VDD and power cathode input end GND, described positive source input end VDD connects by wire 4 positive source that PEPS controller 16 provides, and the power cathode input end GND of control module 1 connects by wire 5 power cathode that PEPS controller 16 provides.Based on being accustomed to car of general car owner 14, car owner 14 is generally comparatively comfortable at skirt within the scope of rear bumper 30cm, also in order to make car owner 14 skirt action more accurately detected, described adjustment of sensitivity module can make the detection distance of sensor device adjustable in the scope of 0cm-30cm.The capacitance variations signal that described signal processing module detects the first capacitive sensing part 2 and the second capacitive sensing part 3 carries out the baseband signal processing such as filtering, amplification, and simulating signal after treatment can be used by logic controller or the identification of rear class control system.Described Logic control module carries out logic judgement to signal processing module signal after treatment, and the result of logic judgement is outputed to PEPS controller 16.
In addition, refer to Fig. 4, in present embodiment, because control module 1 is arranged on the position of tailstock side, and the installed surface with a certain distance from capacitive sensing part also has, each capacitive sensing part can not normal induction tailstock near middle near the part at itself and described control module 1 link position place the interference of external interference source, but the capacitance of this part also can change, the capacitance variation of this part has formed a kind of noise signal.In order to eliminate the impact of above-mentioned noise signal, each capacitive sensing part (2; 3) near itself and the position that described control module 1 is connected, be arranged with shielding part (not shown) to shield the interference of external interference source to this part.Certainly, above-mentioned shielding part is optional, and those skilled in the art can also shield the interference of external interference source to this part by software processing method.
Refer to Fig. 4, in present embodiment, described sensor device 100 comprises the first capacitive sensing part 2, the second capacitive sensing part 3 and control module 1.Whether described the first capacitive sensing part 2 and the second capacitive sensing part 3 there is undesired signal for detection of outside, and described control module 1 is for judging whether undesired signal derives from the skirt action of human body.
Refer to Fig. 5, in general skirt situation, the foot areas that people's physical efficiency enters in described sensor device 100 induction ranges is below mid calf, is commonly considered as sole and ankle position, therefore the distance of adjacent two capacitive sensing parts should be in sole length range, in the scope of 5cm-20cm.
When car owner 14 is in the scope from rear bumper 30cm when skirt, from car owner 14 sole and ankle near the induction range of described capacitive sensing part to leaving the process of its induction range, first the first capacitive sensing part 2 detects undesired signal, its capacitance starts to rise, then the second capacitive sensing part 3 detects this undesired signal, and its capacitance also rises.In the time that sole and ankle enter the induction range of capacitive sensing part completely, the capacitance of described capacitive sensing part reaches maximal value; In the time that sole and ankle leave the induction range of capacitive sensing part gradually, the capacitance of described capacitive sensing part is also along with sole and leaving of ankle and be reduced to minimum.
The rule of utilizing in theory the change procedure of above-mentioned capacitance to fall after rising, can determine external interference source, that is can realize the purpose of this utility model.But the utility model can provide more excellent improvement.Particularly, because described sensor device 100 is to utilize small capacitance to detect principle to carry out input, described capacitive sensing part is equivalent to the positive electrode of capacity plate antenna, the external conditions such as earth conductor such as people, animal, the rainwater of close capacitive sensing part are equivalent to the negative electrode of capacity plate antenna, if external condition Change Example as animal pass by the bottom of car or rainwater through the tailstock, two capacitive sensing parts (2; 3) can sense external interference signals, two capacitive sensing parts (2; 3) capacitance all can change, and this car trunk automatic opening system just exists the hidden danger of being opened by false triggering.
The first strengthens that to detect the means of effect be mainly by realizing with the mode that empirical data compares detecting data: the sole moving taking skirt and ankle are from the induction region that enters capacitive sensing part to the induction region that leaves capacitive sensing part as a time cycle, this time cycle can be taken the circumstances into consideration to pre-determine by those skilled in the art, thus, cycle is interior by control module 1 examinations at one time, if amplitude and the time of the variation of the capacitance of the first capacitive sensing part 2 and/or the second capacitive sensing part 3 are consistent with predetermined set in given accuracy rating, control module 1 judges that this undesired signal derives from the action of human body skirt, and export a command signal to PEPS control module 16.The amplitude of described capacitance variation and the relation between the time, can be characterized or be interpreted as that by those skilled in the art skirt moves to capacitive sensing part (2; 3) the capacitance change curve that impact causes, and described predetermined set can be demarcated according to the actual service condition of sensor device 100, particularly, those skilled in the art by experiment, determine that common skirt action is from starting the length to the time cycle finishing, and common skirt is moved to caused capacitance change and be characterized by capacitance change curve according to aforementioned manner, and for the default error range allowing of follow-up testing process, be also the more given accuracy rating between follow-up and predetermined capacitance change curve.Based on this, when detection, if in this periodic regime predetermined time, two capacitive sensing part (or any one capacitive sensing parts, can be selected flexibly by those skilled in the art) successively present capacitance and change, and change by it curve characterizing and be close with original predetermined capacitance change curve, approaching degree is in described given accuracy rating, can think that so in this case both are consistent, can confirm to detect skirt action.Please note, alleged capacitance change curve herein, be use numerical value concept image know-why is described, and those skilled in the art are to understanding of the present utility model, do not should be understood to tangible curve, being interpreted as can be for the representation of any other form of curve construction relation.Lower same.Described the first capacitive sensing part 2 and the second capacitive sensing part 3 jointly cooperative detection to meet the external interference signals of above-mentioned resolution principle, also but any one is separately for this judgement, when in cycle all there is variation in the capacitance of the first capacitive sensing part 2 and/or the second capacitive sensing part 3 at one time, described control module 1 can send command signal to described PEPS controller 16, to inform that control module 1 has skirt action to produce.
For fear of misinterpretation, the means of the second enhancing detection effect are mainly that the mode by the capacitance delta data (curve) of two capacitive sensing parts is compared realizes:
Within cycle at the same time, when variation has all occurred the capacitance of the first capacitive sensing part 2 and the second capacitive sensing part 3, and the capacitance change curve of capacitive sensing part is consistent with predetermined set respectively in given accuracy rating, when the capacitance change curve of two capacitive sensing parts is mutually consistent in given accuracy rating simultaneously, described control module 1 sends described command signal to described PEPS controller 16 just now, thereby reach the object of the undesired signal of getting rid of non-human skirt action generation, and then avoid this car trunk automatic opening system by the possibility of false triggering, improve security.Here alleged given accuracy rating, with reference to aforementioned, can be determined by the default error range of those skilled in the art.
Influence error scope that the above given accuracy rating can not complete parallel installation be caused by the error range of the comprehensive capacitive sensing part of those skilled in the art, two capacitive sensing parts etc. quantizes, and described predetermined set is that those skilled in the art demarcate according to the actual service condition of sensor device 100.
Two kinds of above enhancements, both can select separately an application, also can jointly apply, and can be determined flexibly by those skilled in the art.
Refer to Fig. 2, thus, described control module 1 is provided with at least one signal output part, described signal output part can be digital signal output end D_SIGNAL or analog signal output A_SIGNAL, and described at least one signal output part connects respectively the corresponding input input end of PEPS controller 16 by digital signal output line 7 and/or analog signal output line 6, send a command signal to PEPS controller 16.
Refer to Fig. 1, from above announcement, by two capacitive sensing parts (2 of sensor device 100; 3) human action is detected, can determine whether and have skirt action by its control module 1, exist after skirt action definite, provide command signal to described PEPS controller 16, by PEPS controller 16 according to this command signal, and after to the successful authentication validated user of Intelligent key 18, send and drive signal to boot control module, drive car tail case lid 15 to open.
In addition, in car trunk automatic opening system of the present utility model, described sensor device 100 is except being arranged on automobile insulation material rear bumper medial surface, can also be by those skilled in the art as required also through many experiments, be arranged at flexibly other positions of automobile tail, so that particularly skirt or sweep foot-propelled and do to open boot lid and be as the criterion of the limb action of the human body that this car trunk automatic opening system senses according to its sensor device 100.
It is pointed out that sensor device of the present utility model can be used alone, for judging human body limb action, as for the utilization of the follow-up other side of the testing result to its control module 1, belong to the category that those skilled in the art can bring into play flexibly.
