Definitions

  • the present invention relates to electric controls for closing a sliding window mounted in a door. It applies in particular to vehicles with doors without upper frame as in vehicles of the cabriolet type.
  • a door window of a motor vehicle is slidably mounted between raised and lowered positions, through a substantially longitudinal slot of the door separating an inner panel to the passenger compartment and a panel external to the passenger compartment of the door.
  • the window can be raised or lowered by means of a window lift system comprising a mechanism, an engine and in the case of modern vehicles, an electronic engine control system.
  • the window In the case of a door without frame, the window is guided by two carriages integral with the sliding window in two respective substantially vertical rails arranged inside the door.
  • the raised window When the door is closed and the vehicle is traveling at high speed, the raised window is subject to significant aerodynamic forces tending to push the window towards the outside of the cabin.
  • a frame of the integral window of the door it is known to maintain firmly the raised window by housing the upper edge thereof in a groove rail secured to the roof of the vehicle or in a joint secured to the door. rigid frame of the hood, in the case of a convertible.
  • the engagement value of the window in this rail or joint may be for example between 5 and 10 mm depending on the models. Under these conditions, the door can only be operated if the window is at least partially lowered. As a result, many coupe-cabriolet-type vehicles are equipped with the so-called short-drop function whereby, as soon as the user begins to handle the handle of the vehicle, the window is lowered about one centimeter to release the seal, and automatically reassembled as soon as the door is closed.
  • the battery voltage and the external conditions of use act directly on the torque of the control motor of the window regulator. Because the engine torque is lower, the window lifters will no longer mechanical stop on their respective stops. The glass plate is no longer correct and the glass is not correctly positioned according to the predefined engagement dimension.
  • the electric current of a vehicle is produced by an alternator that recharges a battery delivering a voltage of 12 volts.
  • the stabilized voltage of the network is higher, for example of the order of 14 to 16 volts.
  • the engine torque of the window regulator is lower with a stopped engine.
  • this difference in torque is of no consequence.
  • the lack of closure of the window is not necessarily perceptible by the driver, especially as he drives at moderate speed.
  • the forces generated on the door system, in particular on all the joints are increased, especially as the aerodynamic forces urge the window towards the outside of the passenger compartment. In the long run, this can lead to leakage of the vehicle.
  • a known solution to this problem is to opt to equip the vehicle with more powerful window motors motors and / or to provide greater power by adding a second battery.
  • the authors of the present invention propose to automatically control the ascent of the window as soon as the engine of the vehicle is started.
  • the electronic circuit which controls the electric motor associated with the control mechanism of the movement of the window can control this recovery after any start.
  • this command is actuated only if the last maneuver of the glass was performed with a motor stopped.
  • this variant of the invention amounts to actuate the raising of the window on the side of the driver at each restart of the engine and for the other doors, only if a passenger or the driver has maneuvered .
  • the invention thus relates to a window lifter for a vehicle door comprising an electric motor associated with a mechanism for controlling the movement of the window, said electric motor being connected by an electrical network to an electric circuit powered by a battery recharged by an alternator when the engine of the vehicle is running and said electric motor being driven by an electronic circuit characterized in that said electronic circuit comprises means for actuating the automatic ascent of the window as soon as the engine is restarted.
  • this command is actuated only if the last maneuver of the glass was performed with a motor stopped.
  • this variant of the invention amounts to actuate the raising of the window on the side of the driver at each restart of the engine and for the other doors, only if a passenger or the driver has maneuvered .
  • FIG. 1 a window 1 of a vehicle mounted in a conventional sliding manner in a door (not shown). In the raised position, the window 1 is engaged in a joint.
  • this seal 2 is for example arranged in a rail forming an inverted U-shaped groove mounted on the roof of the habitable.
  • the engagement value h of the window in the roof joint is set to a rating approaching, for example, about 10 mm.
  • the invention proposes to associate a new functionality to the logic control circuit of the electric motor of the window lifter to control the ascent of the window as soon as the engine of the vehicle is running - either systematically or only if the window has been operated while the vehicle engine is stationary.
  • FIG. 2 This can be obtained with a logic control circuit conforming, for example, to the block diagram of FIG. 2.
  • the reference generally refers to the whole of the electronic circuit schematized by a gray rectangle whose functions will be detailed. the main ones, the electric motor and the glass.
  • the circuit 10 includes 3 interfaces with the outside: the control button 13, the "frameless door” block 14 and the interface with the computer tools 15.
  • the control button 13 is placed in the habitable at the disposal of an occupant of the vehicle and comprises at least two positions to allow the transmission of orders for raising, lowering or stopping one or more panes. These orders are acquired by the box 16 of the circuit.
  • the "door without frame” block 14 detects the opening orders of the door associated with the window, either by an action on the lock 17 via an open door contactor (CPO), or by an intelligent system integrated into the control panel. outer opening 18 (COE). This block only exists on vehicles requiring a partial descent of the window to clear the door.
  • CPO open door contactor
  • COE outer opening 18
  • the request to open the door is transmitted to the block 19 for acquiring requests for micro-descent of the window.
  • the interface 15 corresponds to the diagnostic tools that a technician can come to connect to the diagnostic socket 20 of the vehicle for repairs, for example.
  • the management of the link between the commands of the user and the electronic dialogue of the system is made in the dialogue box 21 with the vehicle network, which operates via on-board electronics on the vehicle, associated with the engine of the vehicle. window lifter or relocated in the vehicle according to its architecture.
  • the box 22 makes it possible to manage the priorities between the commands coming from the different interfaces, for example by preventing the rise of the window following a clearance if the user controls the descent of the window - or on the contrary by forcing the micro-descent if the user simultaneously controls the raising of the window and the opening of the door.
  • the motor control is managed by the block 23.
  • This control is also controlled by an anti-pinch logic circuit, not shown here, to process the obstacle detection routine .
  • This routine is implemented when the window V encounters an obstacle during its rise.
  • the electronic circuit 10 furthermore comprises a block 24 for acquiring the position of the window which stores the position of the window and the state of the engine of the vehicle during the last control of the window, and which memorizes if the electric circuit was fed via the battery of the vehicle schematized by the block 25 during this last ascent.
  • the block 24 having detected an ascent of the stopped engine glass indicates this position to the driving group 23 of the geared motor and as soon as the engine is running, a refueling of the geared motor 11 of the power window is controlled to ensure a positioning of the glass according to the preset engagement value.
  • the invention has been described with reference to cabriolet-type vehicles having doors without frame in the upper part; the invention is not limited not to this embodiment and can be applied to any vehicle door whose sliding window engages at the top in a joint - knowing that similar problems can be seen if the closing order of the windows is actuated engine to the 'stop, even if the absence of short-drop function greatly limits the frequency of the problem.
