Abstract

The method involves having a control element to release a window with a driving motor for moving the windowpane. The movement of the driving motor is stopped for the determination of the windowpane position. The windowpane, before reaching the last position is stopped with a soft stop position and which over-drives to a number given in advance of operation of the control element within a time element, so that the window is then moved to a new position. The number of manipulations of the control element concerns three manipulation per second within a time element.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Steuern eines Fensters mit einem elektrischen Scheibenheber für ein Kraftfahrzeug, wie es bereits aus der DE 44 12 028 Al bekannt ist.The invention relates to a method for controlling a window with an electric Power window for a motor vehicle, as already known from DE 44 12 028 Al is.

Bei diesem bekannten Verfahren zum Steuern einer Fensterscheibe mit elektrischem Scheibenheberantrieb für ein Kraftfahrzeug ist ein sogenannter Einklemmschutz realisiert, so dass bei einem Schließen der Fensterscheibe ein Hindernis ein Stoppen der Bewegung der Fensterscheibe und ggf. ein Zurückbewegen der Fensterscheibe bewirkt. Damit kommt es nicht zu einem versehentlichen Einklemmen. Um bei diesem bekannten Verfahren die Position der Fensterscheibe zu bestimmen, werden die Impulse eines Gleichstromantriebsmotors, der die Fensterscheibe bewegt, beim Drehen des Motors erfasst und aufgrund der gezählten Impulse die aktuelle Fensterscheibenposition ermittelt. Wenn die Fensterscheibe bis zum oberen Rand des Fensters angehoben ist oder bis zum unteren Rand des Fensters abgesenkt ist, also in ihren Endanschlag fährt, dann wird diese von einem Mikroschalter erfasst und der Impulszähler wird automatisch auf 0 oder auf einen vorher definierten Wert gesetzt.In this known method for controlling a window pane with electrical Power window drive for a motor vehicle is realized a so-called anti-trap, so when closing the windowpane an obstacle stopping the movement the window and possibly a retraction of the window causes. In order to it does not come to an accidental pinching. To be familiar with this Procedure to determine the position of the window pane will be the impulses of a DC drive motor that moves the window when turning the motor and, based on the counted pulses, the current window pane position determined. When the window is raised to the top of the window or lowered to the lower edge of the window, that is in its end stop moves, then this is detected by a microswitch and the pulse counter becomes automatic set to 0 or to a previously defined value.

Bei der Ansteuerung von Fensterscheiben mit einem Einklemmschutz ist sicherstellen, dass einerseits die Bewegung der Fensterscheibe bei einem Hindernis gestoppt wird, aber andererseits bei einer Schwergängigkeit der Scheibe, z.B. bei Kälte oder Verformung der Scheibendichtung nicht fälschlicherweise ein Hindernis erkannt und die Bewegung der Fensterscheibe gestoppt und/oder umgekehrt wird. Bei einer Schwergängigkeit soll die Fensterscheibe mit einer entsprechenden Antriebskraft über diese schwergängige Stelle hinweg fahren. Diese Antriebskraft bewirkt, dass die Fensterscheibe ihre Endpositionen "Scheibe geschlossen" oder "Scheibe offen" hart anfährt. When controlling window panes with anti-trap protection, make sure that that, on the one hand, the movement of the window pane is stopped in the event of an obstacle, but on the other hand with a stiffness of the disc, e.g. in the cold or Deformation of the disc seal does not mistakenly detect an obstacle and the Movement of the window is stopped and / or reversed. At a Bindability is said to overpower the windowpane with a corresponding driving force drive this difficult place away. This driving force causes the Window pane their end positions "disc closed" or "disc open" hard starts up.

Um zu vermeiden, dass die Fensterscheibe vorzugsweise beim Absenken nicht unnötig hart gegen einen Endanschlag fährt, wird eine Soft-Stopp-Position definiert. Die Bewegung des Fensters wird durch das Abschalten des Fensterhebermotors beim Absenken der Scheibe bevor der Endanschlag erreicht ist, der sogenannten Soft-Stopp-Position, gestoppt. Damit kann die Scheibe geräuschlos gestoppt werden und es kommt zu einer geringeren mechanischen Belastung. Des Weiteren wird durch das Vorsehen einer Überfahrlogik der Vorteil erreicht, dass die Scheibenposition in ihren Endlagen jeweils neu eingelernt werden kann, um so beispielsweise bei einer fehlerhaften Übertragungen von Hall-Impulsen oder einem Fehler der Hard- und/oder Software entgegenwirken zu können. Die Überfahrlogik kann dabei vorteilhafterweise vom Fahrer selbst durch ein mehrmaliges Betätigen des Bedienschalters für die Fensterscheibe generiert werden.In order to avoid that the window pane is not unnecessary when lowering hard against a limit stop, a soft-stop position is defined. The Movement of the window is by turning off the window motor when Lowering the disc before the end stop is reached, the so-called Soft stop position, stopped. Thus, the disc can be stopped silently and it comes to a lower mechanical load. Furthermore, by the Providing a rollover logic achieves the advantage that the disc position in their End positions can each be re-taught, so for example in case of a faulty Transmissions of Hall pulses or a fault of the hardware and / or software to be able to counteract. The Überfahrlogik can advantageously by the driver even by repeatedly pressing the operating switch for the window pane to be generated.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ist in der Figur dargestellt und in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung näher erläutert.The inventive method is shown in the figure and in the following Description explained in more detail.

Die einzige Figur zeigt das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren in einer Prinzipübersicht.The single figure shows the inventive method in a schematic overview.

Wie in der Figur dargestellt, erfolgt in einem ersten Arbeitsschritt 10 eine Bedienung des Fensterheberschalters. Die Ansteuerung der Bewegung der Fensterscheibe, kann hier sowohl durch den Bedienknopf im Cockpit des Fahrzeuges als auch beispielsweise durch eine Fernbedienung am Zündschlüssel erfolgen. Zur Verdeutlichung ist deshalb in Arbeitsschritt 10 das Bedienelement mit "FH-allgemein" angegeben. Nach der Bedienung des Fensterhebers im Arbeitsschritt 10 wird in einer Abfrage 11 geprüft, ob die Position der Fensterscheibe bekannt ist, also ob die Position der Scheibe gelernt ist. Ist die Scheibenposition bekannt, so wird in einem nachfolgenden Schritt 12 geprüft, ob die Scheibe sich in ihrer Soft-Stopp-Position befindet. Nach dieser softwareseitigen Überprüfung der Position der Fensterscheibe und dem Erkennen der Soft-Stopp-Position wird der Fensterheberschalter (FH - Schalter) im Fahrzeug auf mögliche Betätigung überwacht. Nach dem Absenken der Scheibe im Schritt 13A überwacht das Steuergerät, ob der Fensterheberschalter (FH - Schalter) noch weitere Male innerhalb einer vorgebbaren Zeit betätigt wird. So kann der Fahrer beispielsweise, wenn er feststellt, dass die Fensterscheibe nicht vollkommen abgesenkt wurde, durch eine Mehrfachbetätigung des Fensterheberschalters (FH - Schalter) ein Überfahren der Soft-Stopp-Funktion der Scheibe bewirken. Hierzu wird im Verfahrensschritt 13B überwacht ob der Fensterheberschalter z.B. mindestens 3 mal in einer Sekunde betätigt wurde. Ist dies der Fall so fährt die Fensterscheibe im Arbeitsschritt 14 über die Soft-Stopp-Position hinweg bis an einen unteren mechanischen Anschlag.
Damit hat die Fensterscheibe in dem Arbeitsschritt 15 eine definierte Position eingenommen und die im Steuergerät vorliegende bekannte Position der Fensterscheibe kann verworfen werden. Aufgrund der durch den mechanischen Anschlag definierten Position der Fensterscheibe wird die nun eingenommene Position im Steuergerät neu gesetzt. Der interne Zähler für die Erkennung der Position der Fensterheberscheibe wird beispielsweise zurückgesetzt. Im Arbeitsschritt 16 erfolgt letztendlich wieder eine erneute Betätigung des Bedienelementes (FH allgemein), womit das Verfahren an den Anfang zurückspringt.
Im Verfahren ist der Nein Ausgang der Abfrage 11, ob die Fensterscheibenposition im Steuergerät bekannt ist, und der Abrage 12, ob die Fensterscheibe sich in der Soft-Stopp-Position befindet, an das Ende der Verfahrens geführt, in welcher der Fahrer die Scheibe mit dem Bedienelement (FH allgemein) für eine Bewegung der Fensterscheibe ansteuert.
Der Nein - Ausgang der Abfrage 13B, welcher zurückgeführt ist an den Schritt 13A, bewirkt, dass der Fensterheberschalter während der Soft-Stopp-Position der Fensterscheibe auf eine vorgebbare Anzahl von Betätigungen in einer vorgebbaren Zeit überwacht wird. Damit ist es möglich, eine bereits seit längerer Zeit geöffnete Scheibe ganz gezielt in einen definierte Position zu fahren.
As shown in the figure, an operation of the power window switch takes place in a first step 10. The control of the movement of the window, can be done here both by the control knob in the cockpit of the vehicle as well as for example by a remote control on the ignition key. For clarification, therefore, the operating element is indicated in step 10 with "FH-general". After operation of the window lifter in step 10 is checked in a query 11, whether the position of the window is known, so whether the position of the disc is learned. If the disc position is known, it is checked in a subsequent step 12 whether the disc is in its soft-stop position. After this software check of the position of the window pane and the recognition of the soft stop position, the window regulator switch (FH switch) in the vehicle is monitored for possible actuation. After lowering the window in step 13A, the control unit monitors whether the window regulator switch (FH switch) is actuated a further number of times within a predefinable time. For example, if the driver determines that the windowpane has not been completely lowered, the driver can override the soft stop function of the window by a multiple operation of the power window switch (FH switch). For this purpose, in method step 13B it is monitored whether the window regulator switch has been actuated, for example, at least 3 times in one second. If this is the case, the window pane moves in step 14 over the soft-stop position to a lower mechanical stop.
Thus, the window pane has assumed a defined position in the working step 15 and the known position of the window pane present in the control unit can be discarded. Due to the position of the window pane defined by the mechanical stop, the position now assumed in the control unit is reset. The internal counter for detecting the position of the window lifter disc is reset, for example. In step 16, a re-actuation of the operating element (FH generally) takes place, with which the method jumps back to the beginning.
In the method, the No output of query 11, whether the windowpane position in the controller is known, and the Abrag 12, whether the window pane is in the soft-stop position, led to the end of the process in which the driver with the disc the control element (FH generally) controls for a movement of the window pane.
The no output of query 13B, which is returned to step 13A, causes the power window switch to be monitored for a predetermined number of times in a predetermined amount of time during the soft stop position of the windowpane. This makes it possible to drive a disc that has been open for a long time in a defined position.

Die Soft-Stopp Funktion der Bewegung einer Fensterscheibe in einem Kraftfahrzeug betrifft im vorliegenden Beispiel lediglich das Senken, um so frühzeitig den Fensterhebermotor abzuschalten und die Bewegung der Scheibe bis an den unteren Anschlag zu verhindern.
Die Möglichkeit des Überfahrens der Soft-Stopp Position, welche vom Benutzer selbst initiiert wird, hat den Vorteil, dass die Position der Scheibe, die durch die unteren mechanischen Endanschläge definiert ist, z.B. für Montagezwecke an Türdichtungen angefahren werden kann.
Des Weiteren kann die Scheibenposition aufgrund des Einnehmens einer definierten Position neu gelernt werden, wenn beispielsweise eine Hard- oder Softwareausfall dazu führt, dass die Scheibenposition falsch erkannt wird. In diesem Fall könnte beispielsweise eine Scheibe als geöffnet gelten, obwohl sie noch geschlossen ist. Der Fahrer hat nun die Möglichkeit, durch das Initiieren der Überfahrlogik die Scheibe in ihre Endposition zu fahren und so eine neues Einlernen der Position der Fensterscheibe zu ermöglichen.
The soft-stop function of the movement of a window pane in a motor vehicle in the present example relates only to lowering, so as to switch off the window regulator motor early and to prevent the movement of the pane up to the lower stop.
The possibility of moving over the soft-stop position initiated by the user himself has the advantage that the position of the disc, which is defined by the lower mechanical limit stops, can be approached, for example, for mounting purposes on door seals.
Furthermore, the disc position may be re-learned due to taking a defined position, for example, if a hardware or software failure causes the disc position to be misrecognized. In this case, for example, a disc could be considered opened even though it is still closed. The driver now has the opportunity to drive the disc into its final position by initiating the drive-over logic and thus to enable a new learning of the position of the window pane.
