Die systematisch erfassten Fahrzeugprüfergebnisse werden somit beispielsweise an eine Internetplattform übertragen, in einem zentralen Datensatz gespeichert und unter Berücksichtigung einer Gesamtheit unterschiedlicher Fahrzeugprüfergebnisse analytisch ausgewertet. Dabei können zum Beispiel Datencluster gebildet werden, bei der die Eigenschaften gleichartige Bauteile fahrzeugmodell-, fahrzeugtyp- und/oder herstellerübergreifend erfasst und analysiert werden. Insbesondere wird es nunmehr möglich, dem Benutzer spezifisch zu seinem Fahrzeug, zu seiner Altersgruppe, zu seiner Berufsgruppe oder zu sonstigen individuellen Merkmalen durch Verknüpfung der Datensätze mit statistisch ermittelten Daten zusätzliche relevante Informationen zu liefern.The diagnostic unit is preferably an Internet platform which is set up to receive, store and analytically evaluate the vehicle test results recorded systematically with the vehicle diagnostic equipment used in time and / or space for a plurality of motor vehicles and a plurality of different types of motor vehicle. The systematically recorded vehicle test results are thus transmitted, for example, to an internet platform, stored in a central data set and analytically evaluated taking into account a totality of different vehicle test results.

Globale Zustandsinformationen können zudem auch über Tests von Kraftfahrzeugen und/oder Kraftfahrzeugteilen erhaltene Informationen über die Verschleißanfälligkeit sein.In addition to the entirety of systematically recorded vehicle test results, statistical information about the type-specific wear behavior of motor vehicles or of motor vehicle parts can also be used as global status information by breakdown statistics.

In einer Diagnoseeinrichtung c) mit mindestens einer zentralen computergestützten Diagnoseeinheit und einer Mehrzahl von Fahrzeugdiagnosemitteln ggf. in Verbindung mit einer optischen Bilderfassung erfolgt dann eine Messung von Eigenschaften des Kraftfahrzeuges, insbesondere eine Erfassung des Zustands der sicherheitsrelevanten, komfortrelevanten und umweltrelevanten Komponenten. Dabei kann der Zustand der Fahrzeugreifen, die Abgaswerte, die Bremsenzustände, die Zustände der Wellen- und/oder Gelenklager, der Zustand der Beleuchtungsanlage etc. erfasst werden. Zudem kann die Motorelektronik untersucht werden, wobei vorzugsweise der mindestens eine Ereignis- und Fehlerspeicher der Fahrzeugsteuerung ausgelesen und ausgewertet wird.In a diagnostic device c) with at least one central computer-assisted diagnostic unit and a plurality of vehicle diagnostic means, if necessary in conjunction with an optical image acquisition is then carried out a measurement of properties of the motor vehicle, in particular a detection of the state of safety-relevant, comfort-relevant and environmentally relevant components. In this case, the state of the vehicle tires, the exhaust gas values, the brake states, the states of the shaft and / or spherical bearings, the state of the lighting system, etc. can be detected. In addition, the engine electronics can be examined, wherein preferably the at least one event and fault memory of the vehicle control is read out and evaluated.
Geprüft werden mit den Fahrzeugdiagnosemitteln sicherheitsrelevante Komponenten, wie z.B. der Aufbau, das Fahrwerk, Bremsen, Reifen, Stoßdämpfer, die Elektronik, Airbag, Elektronische Steuerungen, wie ABS, ESP etc. Weiterhin werden komfortrelevante Komponenten, wie z.B. die Klimaanlage etc. untersucht. Zudem werden umweltrelevante Komponenten, wie z.B. Abgasemissionen geprüft, wobei die Untersuchung im simulierten Fahrbetrieb erfolgen sollte, indem das Fahrzeug mittels angesteuerter Rollenbahnen, auf denen die angetriebenen Räder gelagert werden, realistischen Lastzyklen unterworfen wird. Diese Lastzyklen sollten einen Stadtverkehr, eine Landstraßenfahrt und/oder eine Autobahnfahrt nachbilden.Safety-related components such as body, chassis, brakes, tires, shock absorbers, electronics, airbags, electronic controls such as ABS, ESP, etc. are also tested with the vehicle diagnostic equipment. Furthermore, comfort-relevant components such as the air-conditioning system etc. are examined. In addition, environmentally relevant components, such as exhaust emissions The test should be carried out in simulated driving mode by subjecting the vehicle to realistic load cycles by means of controlled roller conveyors on which the driven wheels are stored. These load cycles should simulate city traffic, highway driving and / or highway driving.
Die ermittelten Eigenschaften des Kraftfahrzeuges werden durch Vernetzung der Fahrzeugdiagnosemittel mit der computergestützten Diagnoseeinheit automatisch an die Diagnoseeinheit übertragen und fahrzeug- und halterbezogen abgespeichert.The determined properties of the motor vehicle are automatically transmitted to the diagnostic unit by networking the vehicle diagnostic means with the computer-assisted diagnostic unit and stored in a vehicle-related and holder-related manner.
Die gemessenen Daten über die Eigenschaften des Kraftfahrzeuges werden in einer Korrelationseinheit d) mit globalen Informationen aus Datenbanken e) korreliert. Die globalen Informationen sind für eine Gruppe gleichartiger Fahrzeuge und/oder Fahrzeugteile ermittelte Daten und können fahrzeugspezifische oder komponentenspezifische Qualitätsdaten aus einer Pannenstatistik oder aus Komponententests, wie beispielsweise Reifentests sein. Solche globalen Informationen können auch anderweitig zusammengestellte statistische Daten sowie Informationen zur Fahrzeugausstattung bezogen auf eine Fahrzeugidentifikationsnummer sein.The measured data on the properties of the motor vehicle are correlated in a correlation unit d) with global information from databases e). The global information is data obtained for a group of similar vehicles and / or vehicle parts, and may be vehicle-specific or component-specific quality data from a breakdown statistics or from component tests such as tire tests. Such global information may also be statistical data collected elsewhere, as well as vehicle equipment information relative to a vehicle identification number.
So ist es vorteilhaft, beispielsweise die aus dem Fahrzeugschein eingelesene Fahrzeug-Identifikations-Nummer FIN mit einer Datenbank zu korrelieren, die für jede Fahrzeug-Identifikations-Nummer die im Fahrzeug vorhandene Ausstattung erhält und von den Automobilherstellern oder Dritten zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Derartige globale Informationen werden beispielsweise von der Deutsche Automobil Treuhand DAT zur Verfügung gestellt.Thus, it is advantageous, for example, to correlate the vehicle identification number FIN read from the vehicle registration with a database which receives the equipment available in the vehicle for each vehicle identification number and is provided by the automobile manufacturers or third parties. Such global information is provided, for example, by the German Automobile Trust DAT.
Aus den durch Messung mit den Fahrzeugdiagnosemitteln ermittelten Eigenschaften des Kraftfahrzeuges, d.h. im Ist-Zustand, und den globalen Informationen für eine Gruppe gleichartiger Fahrzeuge und/oder Fahrzeugteile können dann über die gemessenen Eigenschaften hinausgehende Zustandsinformationen als Diagnoseergebnis über das Fahrzeug abgeleitet werden. Hierzu werden die gemessenen Eigenschaften und geeignete globale Informationen miteinander korreliert. Damit werden Informationen über den aktuellen Zustand des Fahrzeugs gewonnen, die nicht direkt gemessen wurden.From the determined by measurement with the vehicle diagnostic means properties of the motor vehicle, ie in the actual state, and the global information for a group of similar vehicles and / or vehicle parts can then state information beyond the measured properties are derived as a diagnostic result on the vehicle. For this purpose the measured properties and suitable global information are correlated with each other. This will provide information about the current state of the vehicle that has not been measured directly.
Hieraus werden in der Korrelationseinheit Therapieergebnisse abgeleitet, um sofortige und langfristige Maßnahmen auf der Basis des Diagnoseergebnisses zu empfehlen. Derartige Maßnahmen können das Wechseln von Reifen, Austausch von Scheibenwischern, die Wartung der Klimaanlage, das Wechseln von Öl etc. sein.From this, the correlation unit derives therapy results in order to recommend immediate and long-term measures on the basis of the diagnosis result. Such measures may include changing tires, replacing windshield wipers, maintaining the air conditioning system, changing oil, etc.
Mit Hilfe der globalen Informationen lassen sich auch neben den Einzelmaßnahmen Gruppentherapien ableiten und bewerten, um nicht nur die Wartung einer als problematische Komponente zu empfehlen, sondern einer Gruppe von Komponenten.In addition to the individual measures, global information can be used to derive and evaluate group therapies so that not only the maintenance of a problematic component is recommended, but also a group of components.
Weiterhin können aus der durch Korrelation gewonnenen Diagnoseergebnisse Präsentationsmaßnahmen fahrzeugindividuell vorgeschlagen werden.Furthermore, presentation measures can be proposed on a vehicle-specific basis from the diagnostic results obtained by correlation.
Diese Diagnoseergebnisse, umfassend die Zustandsinformationen und die vorgeschlagenen Therapie- und Präsentationsmaßnahmen, werden dann über eine Ausgabeschnittstelle f) an den Nutzer ausgegeben. Hierzu ist eine Ausgabeeinheit g) vorgesehen, die als Internetplattform, als Schnittstelle zu einem Telefonnetzwerk zur Übertragung des Diagnoseergebnisses in Form einer automatisch generierten Sprach- und/oder Textnachricht (SMS) und/oder als Druckerschnittstelle zum Ausdruck des Diagnoseergebnisses als ausgedrucktes Protokoll etc. ausgeführt sein kann.These diagnostic results, including the status information and the proposed therapy and presentation measures, are then output to the user via an output interface f). For this purpose, an output unit g) is provided which as an Internet platform, as an interface to a telephone network for transmitting the diagnosis result in the form of an automatically generated voice and / or text message (SMS) and / or as a printer interface for printing the diagnosis result as a printed log etc. executed can be.
Das Diagnoseergebnis ist ein über die ermittelten Eigenschaften hinausgehender "virtueller Fahrzeugschein", der Angaben wie digitale Prüfprotokolle, bei der Prüfung aufgenommene Bild- und Toninformationen, tägliche Gebrauchtwagenwerte bezogen auf den Kraftfahrzeugtyp und die Ausstattung, fahrzeugspezifische Bauteiletests, wie z.B. Reifentests, sowie Sammlungen weiterer automatisch benutzer- und fahrzeugabhängig extrahierter Informationen aus Fachpublikationen enthält. Dieser virtuelle Fahrzeugschein kann das Fahrzeug über seine gesamte Nutzungsdauer von der Bestellung zur Erstauslieferung über einen Verkauf bis zur Verschrottung durch den letzten Halter begleiten.The diagnostic result is a "virtual vehicle registration certificate" which goes beyond the determined characteristics and provides information such as digital test protocols, in which Inspection recorded image and sound information, daily used car values related to the vehicle type and equipment, vehicle-specific component tests, such as tire tests, as well as collections of other automatically user- and vehicle-dependent extracted information from specialist publications contains. This virtual vehicle registration can accompany the vehicle over its entire useful life from the order for the first delivery over a sale to the scrapping by the last holder.
Durch den "virtuellen Fahrzeugschein" wird auch eine Informationsplattform bereitgestellt, die eine Auswertung der individuellen Informationen für zielgerichtete Präsentation von Zusatzinformationen, wie Verbraucherschutzinformationen, Umweltinformationen, Produktinformationen einschließlich Werbung an den jeweiligen Nutzer erlaubt. Dabei wird das Profil des jeweiligen Nutzers ermittelt und es werden abgestimmt auf das Profil aus einer Informationsdatenbank passende Zusatzinformationen extrahiert.The "virtual vehicle registration document" also provides an information platform which allows an evaluation of the individual information for targeted presentation of additional information, such as consumer protection information, environmental information, product information including advertising to the respective user. In this case, the profile of the respective user is determined and it is matched to the profile from an information database appropriate additional information extracted.
Vorteilhaft ist es auch, wenn die Arbeit an Komponenten, insbesondere an sicherheitsrelevanten Komponenten dokumentiert wird. Durch Abgleich mit weiteren Informationen durch das Diagnosesystem - ohne Einflussmöglichkeit des Benutzers - kann die korrekte Erledigung der Arbeiten überprüft und dokumentiert werden. Hierzu kann z.B. ein Abgleich mit an das Diagnosesystem übermittelten Rechnungen erfolgen, die hinsichtlich der für die Arbeiten in Rechnung gestellten Beträge automatisch ausgewertet werden. Erst wenn die Beträge im Rahmen des für die Arbeiten und Ersatzteile üblichen liegen, wird die Arbeit als korrekt erledigt vermerkt. Ansonsten bleibt das Fahrzeug in dem "virtuellen Fahrzeugschein" als fehlerhaft vermerkt.It is also advantageous if work on components, in particular on safety-relevant components, is documented. By comparison with other information through the diagnostic system - without influence of the user - the correct completion of the work can be checked and documented. For this, e.g. a comparison is made with invoices transmitted to the diagnostic system, which are automatically evaluated with regard to the amounts invoiced for the work. Only when the amounts are within the usual for the work and spare parts, the work is noted as correctly done. Otherwise, the vehicle remains noted in the "virtual vehicle license" as faulty.
Durch Reihenuntersuchungen an einer Vielzahl von Fahrzeugen, Fahrzeugtypen, Fahrzeugklassen und einer Vielzahl von Fahrzeugen unterschiedlicher Hersteller, die oftmals gleichartige Komponenten gleicher Zulieferer einbauen, wird es möglich, Informationen zur Produktverbesserung, zur Gefahrenanalyse, zum Umweltschutz etc. zu erhalten. Dabei kann auch z.B. eine Analyse der Auswirkungen von gleichartigen Komponenten unterschiedlicher Hersteller auf eine Fahrzeugsmarke bzw. eine Analyse der Auswirkungen gleicher Komponenten eines Herstellers auf unterschiedliche Fahrzeugmarken vorgenommen werden, um den Energieverbrauch, die Umweltbelastung o.ä. von Komfortgeräten feststellen zu können. Beispielsweise kann durch Einschalten einer Klimaanlage bei der Fahrzeuguntersuchung deren Auswirkungen auf den Energieverbrauch, das Lastverhalten des Motors, die Schadstoffemission erfasst und ausgewertet werden. Durch Zusammenführung dieser Messungen bezogen auf gleiche Komponenten an unterschiedlichen Fahrzeugen und Fahrzeugtypen kann eine Aussage über die Eignung der Komponente für verschiedene technische Umgebungen abgeleitet werden. Zudem ist es möglich, durch Ein- / Ausschalten oder Regulieren der Komponente aus der ermittelten Fahrzeugreaktion eine Aussage über den Zustand der Komponente abzuleiten. Im Falle einer Klimaanlage kann z.B. aus dem Maß des festgestellten Lasteinbruchs durch Einschalten der Klimaanlage auf die Notwendigkeit des Kühlmittelaustauschs geschlossen werden. Der Zusammenhang zwischen Komponente und Fahrzeugverhalten ist aber nicht notwendigerweise eindeutig bekannt. Durch die Zusammenführung systematisch erfasster Fahrzeugprüfergebnisse gelingt es aber, einen Zusammenhang abzuleiten und diesen bei der Korrelation zu berücksichtigen.By screening a large number of vehicles, vehicle types, vehicle categories and a variety of vehicles from different manufacturers, often incorporating similar components from the same suppliers, it becomes possible to provide product improvement information, hazard analysis, to preserve the environment, etc. In this case, for example, an analysis of the effects of similar components of different manufacturers on a vehicle brand or an analysis of the effects of the same components of a manufacturer to different vehicle brands can be made to the energy consumption, the environment or the like. to be able to detect comfort devices. For example, by switching on an air-conditioning system during the vehicle inspection, its effects on the energy consumption, the load behavior of the engine and the pollutant emissions can be recorded and evaluated. By combining these measurements based on the same components on different vehicles and vehicle types, a statement about the suitability of the component for different technical environments can be derived. In addition, it is possible to deduce a statement about the state of the component by switching on / off or regulating the component from the determined vehicle reaction. In the case of an air conditioner, for example, it can be concluded from the extent of the determined load drop by switching on the air conditioning on the need for coolant exchange. However, the relationship between component and vehicle behavior is not necessarily clearly known. By combining systematically recorded vehicle test results, it is possible to deduce a connection and to take this into account in the correlation.
Durch die Reihenuntersuchungen kann auf diese Weise der zunehmenden Bedeutung von Zulieferern bei der Automobilherstellung und der zunehmenden Komplexität des technischen Systems "Auto" Rechnung getragen werden, indem beispielsweise die Auswirkungen technischer Komponenten auf unterschiedliche Fahrzeugmarken, d.h. auf unterschiedliche Einbindung in das Gesamtsystem untersucht wird.In this way, it is possible to take into account the growing importance of suppliers in the manufacture of automobiles and the increasing complexity of the "car" technical system, for example by assessing the effects of technical components on different vehicle brands, i. is examined for different integration into the overall system.
Es werden durch die systematische Reihenanalyse zudem gesellschaftsrelevante fahrzeug- und fahrzeugtypübergreifende Analysen möglich, wie z.B.The systematic series analysis also enables socially relevant vehicle and vehicle type-spanning analyzes, such as eg
Auswertungen in Hinblick auf Status und Funktion des Benutzers / Halters, sowie ethnologische und demoskopische Schlussfolgerungen.Evaluations regarding the status and function of the user / owner, as well as ethnological and demographic conclusions.
Die Erfassung der Eigenschaften des Kraftfahrzeuges kann stationär unter Simulation von realitätsnahen Fahrzyklen unter Ein- und Ausschaltung Energie verbrauchender Hilfs- und Nebenaggregate erfolgen. Dies gilt insbesondere für die Abgasuntersuchung. Dabei sollten die angetriebenen Räder auf Bremsrollen gelagert werden, die zur Simulation von Lastzyklen angetrieben werden. Der Lasteinfluss der Hilfs- und Nebenaggregate ermöglicht einen Rückschluss auf deren Zustand. Anhand der Gesamtheit räumlich verteilt durchgeführter Untersuchungen an einer Vielzahl von Fahrzeugen kann zudem das Verhalten, wie z.B. der Kraftstoffverbrauch, unter Berücksichtigung unterschiedlicher realer Lasteinflüsse sowie unterschiedlicher geographischer Einflüsse bewertet werden. Zudem wird eine Plausibilitätsprüfung der Analyseergebnisse durch Vergleich mit bei anderen Untersuchungen gewonnenen Ergebnissen insbesondere für umweltrelevante Komponenten möglich.The detection of the properties of the motor vehicle can be done stationary under simulation of realistic driving cycles under switching on and off energy consuming auxiliary and auxiliary units. This applies in particular to the exhaust emission test. The driven wheels should be mounted on brake rollers, which are driven to simulate load cycles. The load influence of the auxiliary and ancillary units allows a conclusion on their condition. On the basis of the totality of spatially distributed examinations on a large number of vehicles, the behavior, such as, for example, the fuel consumption, taking into account different real load effects and different geographic influences. In addition, a plausibility check of the analysis results is possible by comparison with results obtained in other investigations, in particular for environmentally relevant components.
Die Fahrzeuguntersuchung kann durch Bild- und/oder Tonaufnahmen begleitet werden, die den technischen Zustand des Fahrzeugs dokumentieren und zusammen mit den Messergebnissen als Datensatz an die Diagnoseeinheit weitergeleitet werden. Die Bild- und/oder Tondaten können zudem mittels Software ausgewertet werden. So ist es denkbar, dass nicht sichtbare Bereiche mit einem Endoskop fotographisch aufgenommen und dokumentiert sowie mittels digitaler Mustererkennung analysiert werden. Auf diese Weise können zum Beispiel Rostverläufe an Karosserie und Verschleißteilen erkannt und analysiert werden. Denkbar ist auch, mit einer Multispektralkamera den Unterboden des Fahrzeuges aufzunehmen und z.B. Ölverteilungen zu erkennen und aus der Ausbreitungsfläche Rückschlüsse über den Motor- und Dichtungszustand zu machen. Durch Bildaufnahmen mit einer Infrarotkamera lassen sich Materialermüdungen detektieren.The vehicle inspection can be accompanied by image and / or sound recordings that document the technical condition of the vehicle and forwarded together with the measurement results as a data set to the diagnostic unit. The image and / or sound data can also be evaluated by means of software. Thus, it is conceivable that non-visible areas can be photographically recorded and documented with an endoscope and analyzed by means of digital pattern recognition. In this way, for example, rust patterns on body and wear parts can be detected and analyzed. It is also conceivable to record the underbody of the vehicle with a multispectral camera and to recognize, for example, oil distributions and to make conclusions about the engine and sealing conditions from the propagation surface. By taking pictures with an infrared camera, material fatigue can be detected.
Vorteilhaft ist es, den mit einer Kamera aufgenommen Fahrzeugzustand mit einer CAD-Einzelteilaufbauzeichnung des Fahrzeuges zu vergleichen. Der Zugriff auf die CAD-Einzelteilaufbauzeichnung gelingt mit Hilfe der Fahrzeugidentifikationsnummer des Fahrzeugscheins, aus der die Fahrzeugausstattung abgeleitet werden kann und die mit den CAD-Daten verknüpft ist. Auf diese Weise ist eine optische Güteprüfung möglich.It is advantageous to compare the vehicle condition recorded with a camera with a CAD component drawing of the vehicle. Access to the CAD component parts drawing is achieved using the vehicle identification number of the vehicle registration certificate, from which the vehicle equipment can be derived and which is linked to the CAD data. In this way, an optical quality inspection is possible.
In vergleichbarer Weise ist auch eine akustische Güteprüfung realisierbar. Vergleichstondaten können vom Hersteller oder insbesondere auch aus den systematisch erfassten Tondaten erhalten werden.In a comparable way, an acoustic quality check can be realized. Comparison data can be obtained from the manufacturer or, in particular, from the systematically recorded sound data.
Durch langfristige Untersuchungen an einer großen herstellerübergreifenden Gesamtheit von Fahrzeugen und Zusammenführung der Daten in der zentralen Diagnoseeinheit wird ein statistischer Vergleich sowie eine Früherkennung von technischen Problemen möglich. Zudem lässt sich das Sicherheitsrisiko bezogen auf das untersuchte Fahrzeug und insbesondere das Gesamtrisiko und das von Fahrzeugen und ihren Komponenten ausgehende Gefahrenpotential bewerten. Das Gesamtrisiko ist aus der Korrelation der statistischen praktischen Fahrzeuguntersuchungen und in Tests gewonnenen wissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen ableitbar.Long-term investigations into a large manufacturer-independent totality of vehicles and consolidation of the data in the central diagnostic unit make statistical comparison and early detection of technical problems possible. In addition, the safety risk relative to the vehicle under investigation and, in particular, the overall risk and the danger potential emanating from vehicles and their components can be assessed. The overall risk can be derived from the correlation of the statistical practical vehicle investigations and scientific studies obtained in tests.
