Description

本発明は、自動車等の車両のドアの施錠/解錠をキー操作なしで可能にするキーレスエントリシステムに好適であって、車両用ドア、または建築物用ドア等に使用するドア開閉装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a keyless entry system that enables locking / unlocking of a door of a vehicle such as an automobile without a key operation, and relates to a door opening / closing device used for a vehicle door or a building door.

近年、自動車等の車両では、利便性、セキュリティーの向上を目的として、キーレスエントリシステムを搭載したものが増えている。   In recent years, an increasing number of vehicles such as automobiles are equipped with a keyless entry system for the purpose of improving convenience and security.

キーレスエントリシステムは、ドアの施錠/解錠をキー操作なしで可能にするシステムで、運転者が携帯所持する無線通信端末と車載の無線通信端末との間における無線通信によって暗証データ等を照合することで、ドアの施錠/解錠を行う。   The keyless entry system is a system that enables the door to be locked / unlocked without key operation, and collates password data etc. by wireless communication between the wireless communication terminal carried by the driver and the in-vehicle wireless communication terminal. The door is locked / unlocked.

従来、このようなキーレスエントリシステム用として、図8に示す車両としての自動車用ドアハンドルが提案されている。   Conventionally, an automobile door handle as a vehicle shown in FIG. 8 has been proposed for such a keyless entry system.

このドアハンドル1は、自動車のドア2の開口部3に組み付けられてドアの開閉操作時の把持部となるハンドル本体4を中空構造にし、このハンドル本体4内の中空部4aに、ハンドル操作検出センサ5を組み込んだものである。   The door handle 1 has a hollow handle body 4 assembled to an opening 3 of a door 2 of an automobile and serving as a grip when the door is opened and closed, and a handle operation detection is detected in the hollow portion 4a in the handle body 4. The sensor 5 is incorporated.

そして、ハンドル操作検出センサ5は、運転者等がハンドル本体4に手を触れると、その人体との接触でハンドル本体4周囲の静電容量が変動することに着眼して、静電容量の変動からドアの開閉操作の有無を検出し、さらに静電容量の変動を検出するためのセンサ電極6と、このセンサ電極6によって静電容量の一定以上の変動を検出した時に運転者が携帯所持する無線通信端末との間で信号の送受を行うアンテナ7とを備えた構成である(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   The handle operation detection sensor 5 takes into account that when the driver touches the handle body 4 with his / her hand, the capacitance around the handle body 4 varies due to contact with the human body, and the variation in the capacitance occurs. The sensor electrode 6 for detecting the presence / absence of an opening / closing operation of the door and further detecting a change in capacitance, and when the change of the capacitance more than a certain level is detected by the sensor electrode 6, the driver carries the vehicle. It is the structure provided with the antenna 7 which transmits / receives a signal between radio | wireless communication terminals (for example, refer patent document 1).

なお、ハンドル本体4は、矢印(イ)方向に揺動変位可能に、前部から延出したアーム8がドア側に連結されている。また、ハンドル本体4の後側には、ドア2が勝手に開成されないように外側からロックするキーシリンダ9と、ベルクランク体10が装備されている。そして、ベルクランク体10は、図示しないリンク機構と協働してドアロック装置を構成する。   The handle body 4 is connected to the door side with an arm 8 extending from the front part so as to be able to swing and displace in the direction of the arrow (A). Further, a rear side of the handle body 4 is equipped with a key cylinder 9 that locks from the outside so that the door 2 is not opened without permission, and a bell crank body 10. The bell crank body 10 constitutes a door lock device in cooperation with a link mechanism (not shown).

ところが、上記ドアハンドル1は、ハンドル操作検出センサ5の組み込みのためにハンドル本体4内に一定以上の大きさの中空部4aを確保しなければならず、ハンドル本体4の形状や寸法が制限されてしまうという問題があった。   However, the door handle 1 has to secure a hollow portion 4a of a certain size or more in the handle body 4 in order to incorporate the handle operation detection sensor 5, and the shape and dimensions of the handle body 4 are limited. There was a problem that.

また、ハンドル本体4の周囲の静電容量は、例えば、人体以外の器物の接近や接触によっても微小変動する。   Moreover, the electrostatic capacitance around the handle body 4 slightly fluctuates due to, for example, the approach or contact of an instrument other than the human body.

そこで、このような外乱による静電容量の微小変動を誤検出しないように、静電容量式のハンドル操作検出センサ5の検出感度を低めに設定しておくと、ドア2の開閉操作時のハンドル本体4への手指の接触圧が弱い時には、ドア2の開閉操作の有無が検出できず、ハンドル本体4への手指の接触のやり直しが必要になって、操作性の低下を招く虞があった。   Therefore, if the detection sensitivity of the capacitance type handle operation detection sensor 5 is set to be low so as not to erroneously detect such a minute change in capacitance due to disturbance, the handle at the time of opening / closing the door 2 is set. When the contact pressure of the fingers on the main body 4 is weak, it is impossible to detect whether the door 2 is opened or closed, and it is necessary to re-contact the fingers with the handle main body 4, which may cause a decrease in operability. .

一方、ハンドル操作検出センサ5の検出感度を高めれば、ドア2の開閉操作時のハンドル本体4への手指の接触圧が弱い場合でも、確実にドア2の開閉操作の有無を検出できるようになるが、その反面、外乱による静電容量の微小変動でも、ハンドル操作検出センサ5はドア2の開閉操作が有ったと判定して、信号の発信を行うようになり、無為な信号発信が周囲環境へのノイズの放出となる虞があった。   On the other hand, if the detection sensitivity of the handle operation detection sensor 5 is increased, the presence or absence of the opening / closing operation of the door 2 can be reliably detected even when the contact pressure of the finger on the handle body 4 during the opening / closing operation of the door 2 is weak. On the other hand, the handle operation detection sensor 5 determines that the door 2 has been opened / closed even when the capacitance fluctuates slightly due to disturbance, and transmits a signal. There was a risk of noise emission.

また、自動車のドアは図9に示すように走行中にドア2が勝手に開かないように室内側からもドアロック装置(図示せず)をロックするドアロックノブ11が設けられている。従って、停車した車両から降りる時には、先ずドアロックノブ11を解錠操作し、次に内側ドアハンドル12を操作して自動車本体13に設けたU字状受けに着脱自在に係合しているL字状鉤で構成しているドア係合手段(図示せず)を外し(以下、解除という)ながらドア2を外側へ開くのである。   Further, as shown in FIG. 9, the door of the automobile is provided with a door lock knob 11 for locking a door lock device (not shown) from the indoor side so that the door 2 does not open freely during traveling. Therefore, when getting off the parked vehicle, the door lock knob 11 is first unlocked, and then the inner door handle 12 is operated to detachably engage the U-shaped receiver provided on the automobile body 13. The door 2 is opened to the outside while removing (hereinafter referred to as release) the door engaging means (not shown) formed of a hook.

もちろん、外側からドア2を開けて自動車に乗る際も、キーシリンダ(図示せず)にキーを差し込んで回す等の操作でドアロック装置のロックを解錠し、それから外側ドアハンドルを操作してドア係合手段を解除しながらドア2を外側へ開くのである。図中、14は窓ガラス、15は運転用ハンドルである。   Of course, even when opening the door 2 from the outside and getting into the car, the door lock device is unlocked by inserting the key into a key cylinder (not shown) and turning it, and then operating the outer door handle. The door 2 is opened outward while releasing the door engaging means. In the figure, 14 is a window glass and 15 is a driving handle.

以上のように自動車は、外側と内側の両方からドアを開くので、ドアロック装置がドアをロックしている時は解錠操作して、それから内側ドアハンドルまたは外側ドアハンドルを操作して通常、自動車本体に係合しているドア係合手段を解除しながらドアを開いている。従って、内側ドアハンドルまたは外側ドアハンドルでドア係合手段を解除する操作が終わるまでには、少なくともドアロック装置の解錠が完了しているタイミングがドア開成操作の点で最適になる。   As mentioned above, the car opens the door from both the outside and inside, so when the door lock device locks the door, unlock it, then operate the inside door handle or outside door handle, The door is opened while releasing the door engaging means engaged with the automobile body. Accordingly, at least the timing when the unlocking of the door lock device is completed is optimal in terms of the door opening operation until the operation of releasing the door engaging means with the inner door handle or the outer door handle is completed.

このような自動車のドア開閉操作の観点から上記従来技術では、車室側からのドア開閉操作時におけるハンドル操作検出センサに係る技術については何ら開示されていないとともに、仮に車室側からのドア開閉操作を検出するとすれば、外側のハンドル本体に設けた構成と同じように内側ドアハンドル内にハンドル操作検出センサを設けることが考えられるが、内側ドアハンドルが大きくなり、その設置スペースを多く必要とする等、種々の設計上の制約を受けることが考えられる。   From the viewpoint of such door opening / closing operation of an automobile, the above prior art does not disclose any technology related to a handle operation detection sensor at the time of door opening / closing operation from the passenger compartment side, and tentatively opens and closes the door from the passenger compartment side. If an operation is detected, it is conceivable to provide a handle operation detection sensor in the inner door handle in the same manner as the configuration provided on the outer handle body. However, the inner door handle becomes larger and requires a lot of installation space. It is conceivable that various design constraints are imposed.

また、上記したようにハンドル操作検出センサ5は、ハンドル本体4の握り方でドア開成操作の検出にバラツキが起こる虞があると、ハンドル本体の開成操作によるドア係合手段の解除操作に拘わらず、ドアロック装置のロックの解錠操作が遅れてしまうことが考えられるとともに、この時にはタイミングをずらして再びハンドル本体4によるドア開成操作をしなければならなく、操作性の低下を招くことが考えられる。   Further, as described above, if there is a possibility that the handle opening detection sensor 5 may vary in the detection of the door opening operation depending on how the handle body 4 is gripped, the handle operation detecting sensor 5 is independent of the door engaging means releasing operation by the opening operation of the handle body. In addition, it is considered that the unlocking operation of the lock of the door lock device may be delayed, and at this time, the door opening operation by the handle body 4 must be performed again at a different timing, which may cause a decrease in operability. It is done.

さらに、図9で説明したようにドアの開成には、ドアロックを解錠操作し、その後にドアハンドルの操作でドア係合手段を解除しなければならなく、2段階の操作となり、ドア開閉の操作が煩雑である。
特開2003−194959号公報
Furthermore, as described with reference to FIG. 9, in order to open the door, the door lock must be unlocked, and then the door engaging means must be released by operating the door handle. The operation is complicated.

To do.

ドア係合手段25は、例えば本体20に固着したU字状受け29と、一端部の枢軸30を中心に上下方向に回転し、ある回転位置を過ぎると急に回転してU字状受け29に係合および係合を解除するL字状鉤31で構成し、ドア21を開閉するため外側ドアハンドル23による外側、または内側ドアハンドル24による内側からの操作に連動して解除および係合する。   The door engaging means 25, for example, rotates up and down around a pivot 30 at one end and a U-shaped receiver 29 fixed to the main body 20, and suddenly rotates after a certain rotational position, to form a U-shaped receiver 29. It is composed of an L-shaped rod 31 that engages and disengages, and is released and engaged in conjunction with an operation from the outside by the outer door handle 23 or from the inside by the inner door handle 24 to open and close the door 21. .

また、ドア係合手段25は、外側または内側からのドア開閉の操作に連動するため例えば、外側ドアハンドル23および内側ドアハンドル24と一端部を連結した外側ワイヤー32、内側33と、外側ワイヤー32、内側ワイヤー33の他端部に連結し、かつ枢軸30を境にしてL字状鉤31の他端部に一体に設けたレバー34と、L字状鉤31に相対向して一体に設けたカム35等で構成し、ドア21の内部に設けたドア係合解除・ドア係合作動手段26を介して外側ドアハンドル23および内側ドアハンドル24と連結している。   Further, the door engaging means 25 is interlocked with the door opening / closing operation from the outside or the inside, for example, the outside wire 32, the inside 33, and the outside wire 32 connected to the outside door handle 23 and the inside door handle 24 at one end. A lever 34 connected to the other end of the inner wire 33 and integrally provided at the other end of the L-shaped rod 31 with the pivot 30 as a boundary, and provided integrally with the L-shaped rod 31 opposite to each other. The cam 35 is connected to the outer door handle 23 and the inner door handle 24 through a door engagement release / door engagement operation means 26 provided inside the door 21.

すなわち、ドア係合手段25は図2(a)に示すようにドア21が本体20を閉じてU字状受け29にL字状鉤31が係合している状態において、外側ドアハンドル23を把持して引っ張り回転させると外側ワイヤー32を介してレバー34が枢軸30を中心に上方へ引かれてL字状鉤31が矢印で示す下方へ作動し、U字状受け29から外れて解除され、図3(a)に示すようにドア21を開成できる構成にしている。   That is, as shown in FIG. 2 (a), the door engaging means 25 is configured so that the door 21 closes the main body 20 and the U-shaped receiver 29 is engaged with the L-shaped rod 31 so that the outer door handle 23 is moved. When grasped and pulled and rotated, the lever 34 is pulled upward about the pivot 30 via the outer wire 32, the L-shaped rod 31 operates downward as indicated by the arrow, and is released from the U-shaped receiver 29 and released. The door 21 can be opened as shown in FIG.

また、ドア係合手段25は前記と同じように、図2(a)に示すようにドア21が本体20を閉じてU字状受け29にL字状鉤31が係合している状態において、内側ドアハンドル24を把持して引っ張り回転させると内側ワイヤー33を介してレバー34が枢軸30を中心に上方へ引かれてL字状鉤31が矢印で示す下方へ作動し、U字状受け29から外れて解除され、図3(a)に示すようにドア21を開成できる構成にしている。なお、外側ワイヤー32、内側ワイヤー33は一方が作動する時に、他方は前記作動に影響を与えないように構成している。   Similarly to the above, the door engaging means 25 is in a state where the door 21 closes the main body 20 and the L-shaped hook 31 is engaged with the U-shaped receiver 29 as shown in FIG. When the inner door handle 24 is gripped and pulled and rotated, the lever 34 is pulled upward about the pivot 30 via the inner wire 33, and the L-shaped rod 31 operates downward as indicated by the arrow, and the U-shaped receiver 29, the door 21 can be opened as shown in FIG. It should be noted that when one of the outer wire 32 and the inner wire 33 operates, the other does not affect the operation.

さらに、ドア係合手段25は図3(a)に示すようにドア21が本体20を開いてU字状受け29からL字状鉤31が外れている状態において、外側ドアハンドル23を把持してドア21を本体20へ向って押して閉じていくと、カム35がU字状受け29に当たり枢軸30を中心に矢印で示す上方へ押し上げられ、これに呼応してL字状鉤31も上方へ回転しながらU字状受け29に係合して図2(a)に示すようにドア21が本体20を閉成する構成にしている。もちろん、ドア係合手段25は内側ドアハンドル24を把持して開いているドア21を本体20に引き寄せて閉じる時も、前記したと同様の動作となり、そして外側および内側からのドアを閉じる操作時にあって、外側ワイヤー32、内側ワイヤー33の作動には影響を与えないように構成している。   Further, as shown in FIG. 3A, the door engaging means 25 holds the outer door handle 23 in a state where the door 21 opens the main body 20 and the L-shaped hook 31 is detached from the U-shaped receiver 29. When the door 21 is pushed toward the main body 20 and closed, the cam 35 hits the U-shaped receiver 29 and is pushed upward about the pivot 30 as indicated by the arrow. In response to this, the L-shaped rod 31 also moves upward. The door 21 closes the main body 20 as shown in FIG. 2A by engaging with the U-shaped receiver 29 while rotating. Of course, when the door engaging means 25 holds the inner door handle 24 and closes the opened door 21 by pulling it toward the main body 20, the door engaging means 25 operates in the same manner as described above, and during the operation of closing the door from the outside and inside. Therefore, the operation of the outer wire 32 and the inner wire 33 is not affected.

ドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27は、外側と内側からのドア開閉の操作を高感度で検出するため、1個のケーブル状の圧電素子材36を使用し、かつ外側ハンドル23と内側ドアハンドル24の操作によりドア係合手段25を解除および係合させるドア係合解除・ドア係合作動手段26の作動により加速度を受けるようにドア21の内部に設けている。   The door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 uses a single cable-shaped piezoelectric element material 36 and detects the door opening / closing operation from outside and inside with high sensitivity. The door 21 is provided inside the door 21 so as to receive acceleration by the operation of the door engagement release / door engagement operation means 26 for releasing and engaging the door engagement means 25 by operating the inner door handle 24.

すなわち、ドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27は、ドア係合手段25を解除させる途中過程の位置を含んだドア係合解除の位置(図3(b)に示す位置)と、同じくドア係合手段25を係合させる途中過程の位置を含んだドア係合の位置(図2(b)に示す位置)との2箇所で、外側または内側からのドア開閉の操作にそれぞれ連動する共通部位であるドア係合解除・ドア係合作動手段26を構成するレバー34により変形を受けて電気信号を発生するように配置している。   That is, the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 is the same as the door engagement release position (position shown in FIG. 3B) including the position in the middle of releasing the door engagement means 25. The door engagement means 25 is interlocked with the door opening / closing operation from the outside or the inside at two positions including the position of the door engagement including the position in the middle of the engagement (the position shown in FIG. 2B). They are arranged so as to generate an electrical signal by being deformed by a lever 34 constituting a door engagement release / door engagement operation means 26 which is a common part.

そして、ドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27は、ドア係合手段25の解除と係合の検出感度を、さらに高めるため圧電素子材36に予め張力が加わった複数の屈曲部36aを設け、それぞれの屈曲部36aをドア係合手段25の作動する解除途中を含むドア係合解除の位置(図3(b)に示す位置)と、ドア係合手段25の作動する係合途中を含むドア係合の位置(図2(b)に示す位置)とに配置してレバー34により変形を受けるように配置している。受け部37は、圧電素子材36を受止めてレバー34による変形を確実に受けるようにしている。   The door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 includes a plurality of bent portions 36a in which tension is previously applied to the piezoelectric element material 36 in order to further increase the detection sensitivity of the release and engagement of the door engagement means 25. Provided, each of the bent portions 36a includes a door engagement release position (position shown in FIG. 3 (b)) including the door engagement means 25 being operated and a door engagement means 25 being engaged. It arrange | positions at the position (position shown in FIG.2 (b)) of the door engagement including, and arrange | positions so that a deformation | transformation may be received by the lever 34. The receiving portion 37 receives the piezoelectric element material 36 and reliably receives deformation due to the lever 34.

ドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27は、図4に示すように、所定長のケーブル状の圧電素子材36と、この圧電素子材36の一端に接続された断線検出用抵抗体38と、圧電素子材36の他端に接続されたドア解除・係合判定手段39と、ドア解除・係合判定手段39に接続されたケーブル40と、このケーブル40の先端に接続されたコネクタ41とでユニットを構成している。   As shown in FIG. 4, the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 includes a cable-shaped piezoelectric element material 36 having a predetermined length and a disconnection detection resistor 38 connected to one end of the piezoelectric element material 36. A door release / engagement determination means 39 connected to the other end of the piezoelectric element member 36, a cable 40 connected to the door release / engagement determination means 39, and a connector 41 connected to the tip of the cable 40. And constitutes a unit.

ドア解除・係合判定手段39に接続されたケーブル40は、電源供給用と検出信号の出力用で、その先端に装備されたコネクタ41を介して、電源や、通信用端末に接続される。   The cable 40 connected to the door release / engagement determining means 39 is for supplying power and outputting a detection signal, and is connected to a power source and a communication terminal via a connector 41 provided at the tip thereof.

ドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27に使用されているケーブル状の圧電素子材36は、図5に示す構造のもので、軸方向中心に配設した中心電極42と、この中心電極45の周囲を被膜した圧電セラミックスであるピエゾ素子材料43と、ピエゾ素子材料43の周囲に配設した外側電極44と、最外周を被覆する塩化ビニル樹脂の被覆層45とから構成される。   The cable-shaped piezoelectric element material 36 used in the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 has the structure shown in FIG. 5 and includes a center electrode 42 disposed at the center in the axial direction and the center electrode. The piezoelectric element material 43 which is a piezoelectric ceramic coated around 45, an outer electrode 44 disposed around the piezoelectric element material 43, and a vinyl chloride resin coating layer 45 covering the outermost periphery.

このケーブル状の圧電素子材33は、優れた可撓性を有し、変形時の変形加速度に応じた出力信号を発生する。ピエゾ素子材料43である圧電セラミックスとしては、例えば、チタン酸鉛、またはチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛の燒結粉体やニオブ酸ナトリウム等の非鉛系圧電セラミック燒結粉体を用いる。   The cable-shaped piezoelectric element material 33 has excellent flexibility and generates an output signal corresponding to the deformation acceleration during deformation. For example, lead titanate or lead zirconate titanate sintered powder or lead-free piezoelectric ceramic sintered powder such as sodium niobate is used as the piezoelectric ceramic that is the piezo element material 43.

また、圧電素子材36は、使用温度が120℃程度まで可能な出願人独自開発の耐熱性を有する樹脂系材料をピエゾ素子材料43として用いており、従来の代表的な高分子ピエゾ素子材料(一軸延伸ポリ弗化ビニリデン)やピエゾ素子材料(クロロプレンと圧電セラミックス粉末のピエゾ素子材料)の最高使用温度である90℃より高い温度域(120℃以下)で使用できる。そして、ピエゾ素子材料43が可撓性を有する樹脂と圧電セラミックスとから構成され、また、コイル状金属の中心電極42およびフィルム状の外側電極44からなる可撓性電極を用いて構成されることで、通常のビニールコード並みの可撓性を有している。   In addition, the piezoelectric element material 36 uses a resin-based material having a heat resistance that can be used up to about 120 ° C. and has been developed by the applicant as the piezo element material 43, and a conventional typical polymer piezo element material ( It can be used in a temperature range (120 ° C. or lower) higher than 90 ° C., which is the maximum use temperature of uniaxially stretched polyvinylidene fluoride) and piezoelectric element materials (piezo element materials of chloroprene and piezoelectric ceramic powder). The piezoelectric element material 43 is composed of a flexible resin and piezoelectric ceramics, and is composed of a flexible electrode composed of a coiled metal center electrode 42 and a film-shaped outer electrode 44. Therefore, it has the same flexibility as a normal vinyl cord.

ピエゾ素子材料43は、樹脂系材料と、10μm以下の圧電性セラミックス粉末の複合体とから構成され、振動検出特性はセラミックスにより、また可撓性は樹脂によりそれぞれ実現している。出願人独自開発のピエゾ素子材料43は樹脂系材料として塩素系ポリエチレンを用い、高耐熱性(120℃)と容易に形成できる柔軟性を実現するとともに架橋する必要のない簡素な製造工程を可能とするものである。   The piezo element material 43 is composed of a resin-based material and a composite of piezoelectric ceramic powder of 10 μm or less, and vibration detection characteristics are realized by ceramics, and flexibility is realized by resin. The piezo element material 43 originally developed by the applicant uses chlorinated polyethylene as a resin-based material, realizes high heat resistance (120 ° C) and flexibility that can be easily formed, and enables a simple manufacturing process that does not require crosslinking. To do.

このようにして得られたケーブル状の圧電素子材36は、ピエゾ素子材料43を成形したままでは、圧電性能を有しないので、ピエゾ素子材料43に数KV/mmの直流高電圧を印加することにより、ピエゾ素子材料43に圧電性能を付与する処理(分極処理)を行うことが必要となる。   The cable-like piezoelectric element material 36 obtained in this way does not have piezoelectric performance when the piezo element material 43 is molded, so that a DC high voltage of several KV / mm is applied to the piezo element material 43. Therefore, it is necessary to perform a process for imparting piezoelectric performance to the piezo element material 43 (polarization process).

ピエゾ素子材料43にクラックなどの微少な欠陥が内在する場合、その欠陥部で放電して両電極間が短絡し易くなるので、充分な分極電圧が印加できなくなるが、本発明では一定長さのピエゾ素子材料43に密着できる補助電極を用いた独自の分極工程を確立することにより、欠陥を検出・回避して分極を安定化でき、これにより、数10m以上の長尺化も可能になる。   When a minute defect such as a crack is inherent in the piezo element material 43, it becomes easy to short-circuit between the two electrodes by discharging at the defective part, so that a sufficient polarization voltage cannot be applied. By establishing a unique polarization process using an auxiliary electrode that can be in close contact with the piezo element material 43, it is possible to detect and avoid defects and stabilize the polarization, thereby enabling a length of several tens of meters or more.

また、圧電素子材36においては、中心電極42にコイル状金属中心電極を、外側電極44にフィルム状電極(アルミニウム−ポリエチレンテレフタレート−アルミニウムからなる三層ラミネートフィルム)を用い、これにより、ピエゾ素子材料43と電極の密着性を確保するとととに、外部リード線の接続が容易にでき、可撓なケーブル状の実装構成が可能になる。   In the piezoelectric element material 36, a coil-shaped metal center electrode is used for the center electrode 42, and a film-like electrode (a three-layer laminate film made of aluminum-polyethylene terephthalate-aluminum) is used for the outer electrode 44, whereby a piezo element material is obtained. As well as ensuring the adhesion between the electrode 43 and the electrode, the external lead wire can be easily connected, and a flexible cable-like mounting configuration becomes possible.

中心電極42は銅−銀合金コイル、外側電極44はアルミニウム−ポリエチレンテレフタレート−アルミニウムからなる三層ラミネートフィルム、ピエゾ素子材料43はポリエチレン系樹脂+圧電性セラミックス粉末、被覆層45は熱可塑性プラスチック、これにより比誘電率は55、電荷発生量は10〜13C(クーロン)/gf、最高使用温度は120℃となる。   The center electrode 42 is a copper-silver alloy coil, the outer electrode 44 is a three-layer laminate film made of aluminum-polyethylene terephthalate-aluminum, the piezo element material 43 is a polyethylene resin + piezoelectric ceramic powder, the coating layer 45 is a thermoplastic plastic, Therefore, the relative dielectric constant is 55, the charge generation amount is 10 to 13 C (coulomb) / gf, and the maximum use temperature is 120 ° C.

以上の圧電素子材36は、一例として以下の工程により製造される。最初に塩素系ポリエチレンシートと40〜70体積%の圧電セラミックス(ここでは、チタン酸ジルコン酸鉛)粉末がロール法によりシート状に均一に混合される。このシートを細かくペレット状に切断した後、これらのペレットは中心電極42とともに、連続的に押し出されてピエゾ素子材料43を形成する。そして、補助電極をピエゾ素子材料43の外周に接触させて前記補助電極と中心電極42との間に高電圧を印加させて分極処理を行う。それから、外側電極44がピエゾ素子材料43の周囲に巻き付けられる。外側電極44を取り巻いて被覆層45も連続的に押し出される。   The above piezoelectric element material 36 is manufactured by the following processes as an example. First, a chlorine-based polyethylene sheet and 40 to 70% by volume of piezoelectric ceramics (here, lead zirconate titanate) powder are uniformly mixed into a sheet by a roll method. After the sheet is finely cut into pellets, these pellets are continuously extruded together with the center electrode 42 to form a piezo element material 43. Then, the auxiliary electrode is brought into contact with the outer periphery of the piezo element material 43 and a high voltage is applied between the auxiliary electrode and the center electrode 42 to perform polarization treatment. Then, the outer electrode 44 is wound around the piezo element material 43. The coating layer 45 is also continuously extruded around the outer electrode 44.

上記塩素化ポリエチレンに圧電セラミックス粉体を添加するとき、前もって圧電セラミックス粉体をチタン・カップリング剤の溶液に浸漬・乾燥することが好ましい。この処理により、圧電セラミックス粉体表面が、チタン・カップリング剤に含まれる親水基と疎水基で覆われる。   When adding the piezoelectric ceramic powder to the chlorinated polyethylene, it is preferable to immerse and dry the piezoelectric ceramic powder in a titanium / coupling agent solution in advance. By this treatment, the surface of the piezoelectric ceramic powder is covered with a hydrophilic group and a hydrophobic group contained in the titanium coupling agent.

親水基は、圧電セラミックス粉体同士の凝集を防止し、また、疎水基は塩素化ポリエチレンと圧電セラミックス粉体との濡れ性を増加する。この結果、圧電セラミックス粉体は、塩素化ポリエチレン中に均一に、最大70体積%までに多量に添加することができる。上記チタン・カップリング剤溶液中の浸漬に代えて、塩素化ポリエチレンと圧電セラミックス粉体のロール時にチタン・カップリング剤を添加することにより、上記と同じ効果を得られることが見出された。この処理は、特別にチタン・カップリング剤溶液中の浸漬処理を必要としない点で優れている。このように、塩素化ポリエチレンは、圧電セラミックス粉体を混合する際のバインダー樹脂としての役割を担っている。   The hydrophilic group prevents aggregation between the piezoelectric ceramic powders, and the hydrophobic group increases wettability between the chlorinated polyethylene and the piezoelectric ceramic powder. As a result, the piezoelectric ceramic powder can be uniformly added to the chlorinated polyethylene in a large amount up to 70% by volume. It has been found that the same effect as described above can be obtained by adding a titanium coupling agent at the time of rolling chlorinated polyethylene and piezoelectric ceramic powder instead of dipping in the titanium coupling agent solution. This treatment is excellent in that it does not require a special immersion treatment in a titanium / coupling agent solution. Thus, the chlorinated polyethylene plays a role as a binder resin when the piezoelectric ceramic powder is mixed.

本実施の形態の場合、中心電極42には、銅系金属による単線導線を使用している。また、外側電極47には、高分子層の上にアルミ金属膜の接着された帯状電極を用い、これをピエゾ素子材料43の周囲に巻き付けた構成としている。そして、高分子層としては、ポリエチレン・テレフタレート(PET)を用い、この上にアルミ薄膜を接着した電極は、商業的にも量産されて安価であるので、外側電極44として好ましい。この電極をドア解除・係合判定手段39に接続する際には、例えば、加締めや、ハトメにより接続することができる。   In the case of the present embodiment, a single wire conducting wire made of a copper-based metal is used for the center electrode 42. Further, as the outer electrode 47, a belt-like electrode in which an aluminum metal film is bonded on a polymer layer is used, and this is wound around the piezo element material 43. An electrode in which polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is used as the polymer layer and an aluminum thin film is bonded thereon is mass-produced commercially and is inexpensive, and thus is preferable as the outer electrode 44. When this electrode is connected to the door release / engagement determining means 39, for example, it can be connected by caulking or eyelet.

また、外側電極44のアルミ薄膜の周りに金属単線コイルや金属編線をドア解除・係合判定手段39の接続用に半田付けする構成としてもよく、半田付けが可能となるので、作業の効率化が図れる。   Also, a metal single wire coil or a metal braided wire may be soldered around the aluminum thin film of the outer electrode 44 for the connection of the door release / engagement determination means 39, and soldering is possible. Can be achieved.

なお、圧電素子材36を外部環境の電気的雑音からシールドするために、外側電極44は部分的に重なるようにしてピエゾ素子材料43の周囲に巻き付けることが好ましい。被覆層45としては、前述の塩化ビニル樹脂よりも断熱性および防水性に優れたゴム材料を使用することもできる。このゴム材料とは、接触する物品の押圧力でピエゾ素子材料43が変形し易いように、ピエゾ素子材料43よりも柔軟性および可撓性の高いものが良い。車載部品として耐熱性、耐寒性を考慮して選定し、具体的には、−30℃〜85℃で可撓性の低下が少ないものを選定することが好ましい。このようなゴム材料として、例えば、エチレンプロピレンゴム(EPDM)、クロロプレンゴム(CR)、ブチルゴム(IIR)、シリコンゴム(Si)、熱可塑性エストラマー等を用いればよい。以上のような構成により、圧電素子材33の最小曲率は、半径5mmまで可能になり、また、従来塩化ビニールと比較して、更に優れた断熱性および防水性を確保することができる。   In order to shield the piezoelectric element material 36 from electrical noise in the external environment, the outer electrode 44 is preferably wound around the piezo element material 43 so as to partially overlap. As the covering layer 45, a rubber material having better heat insulation and waterproofness than the above-described vinyl chloride resin can be used. The rubber material is preferably a material having higher flexibility and flexibility than the piezo element material 43 so that the piezo element material 43 is easily deformed by the pressing force of the article to be contacted. It is preferable to select a vehicle-mounted component in consideration of heat resistance and cold resistance. Specifically, it is preferable to select an in-vehicle component that has a small decrease in flexibility at -30 ° C to 85 ° C. As such a rubber material, for example, ethylene propylene rubber (EPDM), chloroprene rubber (CR), butyl rubber (IIR), silicon rubber (Si), thermoplastic elastomer or the like may be used. With the configuration as described above, the minimum curvature of the piezoelectric element material 33 can be up to a radius of 5 mm, and more excellent heat insulation and waterproofing can be ensured as compared with conventional vinyl chloride.

上記のように、圧電素子材36のピエゾ素子材料43が塩素化ポリエチレンの有する可撓性と圧電セラミックスの有する高温耐久性とを併せ持つので、圧電体としてポリフッ化ビニリデンを用いた従来の圧電素子材のような高温での感度低下がなく、高温耐久性がよい上、EPDMのように成形時に加硫工程が不要なので生産効率がよいという利点が得られる。   As described above, the piezoelectric element material 43 of the piezoelectric element material 36 has both the flexibility of the chlorinated polyethylene and the high temperature durability of the piezoelectric ceramic. Therefore, the conventional piezoelectric element material using polyvinylidene fluoride as the piezoelectric body. As described above, there is an advantage that the production efficiency is good because there is no reduction in sensitivity at a high temperature and the high temperature durability is good and a vulcanization step is unnecessary at the time of molding as in EPDM.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 6, the body side control means 28 detects the release and engagement of the door engagement means 25 by a door engagement release / door engagement operation means 26 that is interlocked with the opening / closing operation of the door 21. The piezoelectric element material 36, which is a door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means, and the door lock means 22 are connected.

そして、本体側制御手段28は、正規のドア開閉操作者がドア21を開閉操作することによるドア係合手段25の解除および係合を圧電素子材36によって監視して、この変化値が所定値以上になると動作し、リレーボックス(図示せず)を介してバッテリーから本体送受信手段46へ電源が供給される。キーシリンダ66は、図1に示すように自動車のエンジンを始動するキー(図示せず)を差し込んで回転させロック手段22を解錠および施錠するもので、ドア21の外側ドアハンドル23の近傍に設けてある。   Then, the main body side control means 28 monitors the release and engagement of the door engaging means 25 caused by a normal door opening / closing operator opening and closing the door 21 with the piezoelectric element material 36, and this change value is a predetermined value. The operation is performed as described above, and power is supplied from the battery to the main body transmission / reception means 46 via a relay box (not shown). As shown in FIG. 1, the key cylinder 66 is inserted into a key (not shown) for starting an automobile engine and rotated to unlock and lock the lock means 22. The key cylinder 66 is located near the outer door handle 23 of the door 21. It is provided.

上記構成のドア開閉装置において、その動作と作用を説明する。図2(a)、図2(b)に示すように、本体20を閉じているドア21を開くため外側ドアハンドル23または内側ドアハンドル24を把持し引っ張り回転させると、外側ワイヤー32または内側ワイヤー33を介してレバー34が枢軸30を中心に上方へ引かれてL字状鉤31が矢印で示すように下方へ作動し、U字状受け29から外れてドア係合手段25が解除され、図3(a)に示すようにドア21を開成する。   The operation and action of the door opening and closing device having the above configuration will be described. As shown in FIGS. 2 (a) and 2 (b), when the outer door handle 23 or the inner door handle 24 is gripped and rotated to open the door 21 that closes the main body 20, the outer wire 32 or the inner wire The lever 34 is pulled upward about the pivot 30 through 33, and the L-shaped rod 31 operates downward as indicated by the arrow, is released from the U-shaped receiver 29, and the door engaging means 25 is released. The door 21 is opened as shown in FIG.

そして、ドア係合手段25が解除される迄のレバー34の作動で図3(b)に示すように圧電素子材36は、変形を受けてドア開成の操作に連動するドア係合手段25の解除を検出して電気信号を発生する。この圧電素子材36の電気信号を取り込んだ本体側制御手段28は、ドア解除・係合判定手段39によりドア開成の操作によるドア係合手段25の解除が検出され、暗証信号要求手段57から暗証要求信号が送信される。   The operation of the lever 34 until the door engaging means 25 is released causes the piezoelectric element material 36 to be deformed and receive the deformation of the door engaging means 25 interlocked with the door opening operation as shown in FIG. An electrical signal is generated by detecting the release. The main body side control means 28 that has taken in the electrical signal of the piezoelectric element material 36 detects the release of the door engaging means 25 by the door opening / engagement determining means 39 and the password signal requesting means 57 detects the password. A request signal is transmitted.

ドア開閉操作者携帯制御手段56は、暗証要求信号を受信すると、暗証信号を携帯送受信手段58から送信する。、本体側制御手段28は、暗証信号を受信すると解読手段59によって暗証信号の解読を行った後、暗証信号判定手段61によって暗証信号の判定を行い、暗証信号がメモリ60に格納された暗証信号と一致すると、ロック解除・施錠制御手段48によってロック解除・施錠駆動手段62に信号を送出する。一方、暗証信号が不一致であり、かつ不一致の暗証信号が所定回数以上判定されると警報が発報される。   When the door opening / closing operator portable control means 56 receives the password request signal, it transmits the password signal from the portable transmission / reception means 58. Upon receiving the password signal, the main body side control means 28 decodes the password signal by the decoding means 59, then determines the password signal by the password signal determination means 61, and the password signal in which the password signal is stored in the memory 60. Is coincident with the lock release / lock control means 48, a signal is sent to the lock release / lock drive means 62. On the other hand, an alarm is issued when the password signals are inconsistent and the mismatched password signals are determined a predetermined number of times or more.

このように本体側制御手段28はドア開閉の操作が正規の操作者であるか否かを判定し、正規の操作者である時にドア解錠・施錠駆動手段46の動作を制御してドアロック手段22を解錠する。   Thus, the main body side control means 28 determines whether or not the door opening / closing operation is an authorized operator, and controls the operation of the door unlocking / locking driving means 46 when the authorized operator is operating. The means 22 is unlocked.

また、図3(a)に示すように本体20を開いているドア21を閉じるため外側ドアハンドル23を把持してドア21を本体20に向って押して閉じていくと、または内側ドアハンドル24を把持してドア21を本体20に引き寄せて閉じていくと、カム35がU字状受け29に当たり枢軸30を中心に矢印で示す上方へ押し上げられ、これに呼応してL字状鉤31も上方へ回転しながらU字状受け29に係合してドア係合手段25が係合され図2(a)に示すようにドア21が本体20を閉成する。   Further, as shown in FIG. 3A, when the door 21 that opens the main body 20 is closed, the outer door handle 23 is gripped and the door 21 is pushed toward the main body 20 to close it, or the inner door handle 24 is moved. When the door 21 is gripped and pulled close to the main body 20, the cam 35 hits the U-shaped receiver 29 and is pushed upward about the pivot 30 as indicated by the arrow. As shown in FIG. 2A, the door 21 closes the main body 20 by engaging with the U-shaped receiver 29 while rotating in the direction of engagement.

そして、ドア係合手段25が係合されるとレバー34の作動で図2(b)に示すように圧電素子材36は、変形を受けてドア閉成の操作に連動するドア係合手段25の係合を検出して電気信号を発生する。この圧電素子材36の電気信号を取り込んだ本体側制御手段28のドア解除・係合判定手段39はドア閉成を判定し、この判定信号を受けたドア開閉操作者判定手段47が上記したドア開成の操作時と同じようにしてドア閉成の操作が正規の操作者であるか否かを判定し、正規の操作者である時にロック解錠・施錠制御手段48がロック解錠・施錠駆動手段62の動作を制御してドアロック手段22を施錠する。   When the door engaging means 25 is engaged, the operation of the lever 34 causes the piezoelectric element material 36 to be deformed and interlocked with the door closing operation as shown in FIG. Is detected to generate an electrical signal. The door release / engagement determination means 39 of the main body side control means 28 that takes in the electric signal of the piezoelectric element material 36 determines the door closing, and the door opening / closing operator determination means 47 that receives this determination signal determines the door described above. In the same manner as the opening operation, it is determined whether or not the door closing operation is an authorized operator. When the door closing operation is the authorized operator, the lock unlocking / locking control means 48 is locked / unlocked / locked. The door lock means 22 is locked by controlling the operation of the means 62.

図7(a)、図7(b)はドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27である圧電素子材36に加わる荷重と信号出力特性を示す線図である。出願人が圧電素子材36の荷重と信号出力の関係を実験した結果、圧電素子材36に図7(a)のような曲げ荷重を印加したとき、信号出力が図7(b)のような変動を呈するようになる。
(1)時刻t0で圧電素子材36に荷重が加わっていないときは、信号出力は電圧Vaを示している。
(2)時刻t1で圧電素子材36に一定方向に曲げ荷重が加わると、加わった瞬間から信号出力はVbに増加した後、直ぐに反転して0(V)になり、その後再びVaに戻る。
(3)その後、曲げたままにしていても信号出力はVaを示したままである。
(4)時刻t3で、圧電素子材36をもとの状態に戻すと、その瞬間からセンサ出力はVcに減少したあと、直ぐに反転してVdになり、その後再びVaに戻る。
FIGS. 7A and 7B are diagrams showing the load applied to the piezoelectric element material 36 which is the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 and the signal output characteristics. As a result of the experiment conducted by the applicant on the relationship between the load of the piezoelectric element material 36 and the signal output, when a bending load as shown in FIG. 7A is applied to the piezoelectric element material 36, the signal output is as shown in FIG. It will show fluctuations.
(1) When no load is applied to the piezoelectric element material 36 at time t0, the signal output indicates the voltage Va.
(2) When a bending load is applied to the piezoelectric element material 36 in a certain direction at time t1, the signal output increases to Vb from the moment it is applied, then immediately reverses to 0 (V), and then returns to Va again.
(3) After that, the signal output remains Va even if it is kept bent.
(4) When the piezoelectric element material 36 is returned to the original state at the time t3, the sensor output decreases to Vc from that moment, then immediately reverses to Vd, and then returns to Va again.

このように圧電素子材36は、加速度に反応した出力を高感度に検出できるため、微小な振動を精度良く検出して出力することができる。なお、荷重印加タイミングの検出には、例えば図示した電圧Vaを中心とした所定電圧幅ΔVの判定閾値を設け、この判定閾値を越えた場合に荷重変化があったと判定すれば良い。   Thus, since the piezoelectric element material 36 can detect the output in response to the acceleration with high sensitivity, it can detect and output a minute vibration with high accuracy. For detection of the load application timing, for example, a determination threshold value of a predetermined voltage width ΔV centered on the illustrated voltage Va is provided, and it may be determined that the load has changed when the determination threshold value is exceeded.

特に本実施の形態のドア開閉装置では、ドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27が外側と内側からのいずれのドア21の開閉操作にも連動するドア係合解除・ドア係合作動手段26の作動を受けて信号を発生し、この信号を受けた本体側制御手段28がドアロック手段22の解錠および施錠を制御するので、外側と内側からのいずれのドア開閉の操作と併せてドアロックの解錠および施錠もでき、外側と内側からのいずれのドア開閉の操作も従来に比べ煩雑さがなくなり操作が楽になる。   In particular, in the door opening and closing device of the present embodiment, the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 is interlocked with the opening / closing operation of any door 21 from the outside and the inside. The main body side control means 28 that receives this signal controls the unlocking and locking of the door lock means 22, so that the door opening / closing operation from either the outside or the inside can be performed. The door lock can be unlocked and locked, and the operation of opening and closing the door from the outside and the inside is less complicated and easier to operate.

また、本実施の形態ではドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27を、一つで以って外側と内側からの両方のドア開閉の操作を検出する構成にしているので、外側と内側からのいずれのドア開閉の操作にも連動するドア係合解除・ドア係合作動手段の作動を受けて信号を発生する。従って、外側と内側の両方からのドア開閉の操作検出にも共用できて構成を簡単にできるとともに、ドア開閉の操作の検出にもバラツキがなくなり、安定したドア開閉の操作ができる。   Further, in the present embodiment, the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 is configured to detect both door opening / closing operations from the outside and the inside by a single unit. A signal is generated in response to the operation of the door engagement release / door engagement operation means that is linked to any door opening / closing operation. Therefore, it is possible to share the detection of the door opening / closing operation from both the outside and the inside, simplifying the configuration, and detecting the opening / closing operation of the door is not varied, and a stable door opening / closing operation can be performed.

また、本実施の形態ではドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27を、外側または内側からのドア開閉の操作にそれぞれ連動する共通部位であるレバー34の作動により信号を発生する位置に設けているので、外側または内側からのドア開閉の操作に呼応してドア係合手段25の解除および係合を検出するにも拘わらず1箇所に設けられ、設置が簡単になる。   Further, in the present embodiment, the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 is provided at a position where a signal is generated by the operation of the lever 34 which is a common part that is interlocked with the door opening / closing operation from the outside or the inside. Therefore, it is provided at one place regardless of the detection of the release and engagement of the door engaging means 25 in response to the door opening / closing operation from the outside or the inside, and the installation becomes simple.

また、本実施の形態ではドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27を、ドア21の内部に設けているので、ドア開閉時に把持する内外のそれぞれのドアハンドルの内部に比較して広くなり設置上におけるスペースの制約が軽減され、ドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27の設置が容易になる。   Further, in this embodiment, the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 is provided inside the door 21, so that it is wider than the inside and outside door handles gripped when the door is opened and closed. Space restrictions on installation are reduced, and installation of the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 is facilitated.

そして、ドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27をドアハンドル内に組み込む必要がないので、ドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27を組み込む所定の大きさの中空部をドアハンドルに設ける必要がなくなり、ドアハンドルは操作時に把持性や外観デザイン等を重視して任意に形状や寸法を設計可能になり、ドアハンドルの形状や寸法に対する設計自由度が高くなる。   Further, since it is not necessary to incorporate the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 in the door handle, a hollow portion of a predetermined size incorporating the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 is used as the door handle. There is no need to provide the door handle, and it becomes possible to design the shape and dimensions arbitrarily with emphasis on gripping and appearance design during operation, and the degree of freedom in designing the shape and dimensions of the door handle is increased.

また、本実施の形態ではドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27を、圧電素子材36で構成し、圧電素子材36はドア係合解除・ドア係合作動手段26の作動により変形を受けて電気信号を出力するように配置したので、外側と内側からのいずれのドア開閉の操作の検出感度も良くなり、外側ドアハンドル23および内側ドアハンドル24によるドア係合手段25の解除および係合とドアロック手段22の解錠および施錠のそれぞれのタイミングを適切にすることが容易で、ドア開閉の操作性を向上できる。   In this embodiment, the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 is constituted by the piezoelectric element material 36, and the piezoelectric element material 36 is deformed by the operation of the door engagement release / door engagement operation means 26. Since it is arranged to receive and output an electrical signal, the detection sensitivity of any door opening / closing operation from the outside or the inside is improved, and the door engaging means 25 is released and engaged by the outside door handle 23 and the inside door handle 24. It is easy to properly set the timing of unlocking and locking the door lock means 22, and the operability of opening and closing the door can be improved.

そして、静電容量式の従来のハンドル操作検出センサと比較して、ドアの開閉操作に無関係な器物の接近等を誤検出する虞がない。従って、検出感度を高く設定して、ドア係合手段25と一体に変位するレバー34の僅かな変位によって、鋭敏にドア開閉の操作の有無を検出させることが可能で、ドア21の開閉操作時における外側ドアハンドル23および内側ドアハンドル24の把持が弱い場合でも確実にドアの開閉操作の有無を検出することができる。   And compared with the conventional capacitance type handle operation detection sensor, there is no possibility of erroneously detecting the approach of an object unrelated to the door opening / closing operation. Therefore, the detection sensitivity can be set high, and the presence or absence of the door opening / closing operation can be detected sensitively by the slight displacement of the lever 34 that is displaced integrally with the door engaging means 25. Even when the gripping of the outer door handle 23 and the inner door handle 24 is weak, it is possible to reliably detect whether the door is opened or closed.

また、ドア係合手段25と一体に変位するレバー34の変位挙動によって圧電素子材36のピエゾ素子材43が変形しない限り、検出信号を出力しないため、無為な信号発信による周囲環境へのノイズの放出を防止することもできる。   Further, since the detection signal is not output unless the piezo element material 43 of the piezoelectric element material 36 is deformed by the displacement behavior of the lever 34 that is integrally displaced with the door engaging means 25, noise to the surrounding environment due to ineffective signal transmission is not generated. Release can also be prevented.

また、圧電素子材36を使用したドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27は、1mA以下の消費電流で安定動作させることができるため、静電容量式の従来のハンドル操作検出センサと比較すると、消費電流の低減によって車載バッテリーへの負担を軽減することができる。   Further, the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 using the piezoelectric element material 36 can be stably operated with a current consumption of 1 mA or less, so that it is compared with a conventional capacitance type handle operation detection sensor. Then, the burden on the vehicle-mounted battery can be reduced by reducing the current consumption.

また、圧電素子材36に変形を生じさせるための圧電素子材36とレバー34との係合形態も、上記実施の形態に限らない。   Also, the form of engagement between the piezoelectric element material 36 and the lever 34 for causing deformation of the piezoelectric element material 36 is not limited to the above embodiment.

また、本実施の形態では、圧電素子材36に張力が加わった屈曲部36aを設け、屈曲部36aをドア係合解除・ドア係合作動手段26の作動による変形を受けるように配置しているので、圧電素子材36は張力が加わり検出感度が高まっている屈曲部36aにドア係合解除・ドア係合作動手段26の作動による変形を受け、外側と内側からのいずれのドア開閉操作の検出感度も、さらに高まり、外側ドアハンドルまたは内側ドアハンドルによるドア係合手段の解除および係合とドアロック手段の解錠および施錠のそれぞれのタイミングを適切にすることが容易で、ドア開閉の操作性をさらに向上できる。   In the present embodiment, the piezoelectric element material 36 is provided with a bent portion 36a in which a tension is applied, and the bent portion 36a is arranged to be subjected to deformation due to the operation of the door engagement release / door engagement operation means 26. Therefore, the piezoelectric element material 36 is subjected to deformation caused by the operation of the door engagement release / door engagement operation means 26 at the bent portion 36a, where the tension is applied and the detection sensitivity is increased, and detection of any door opening / closing operation from the outside or the inside is detected. Sensitivity is further increased, and it is easy to properly set the timing of releasing and engaging the door engaging means by the outer door handle or the inner door handle, and unlocking and locking the door locking means, and the door opening / closing operability. Can be further improved.

また、本実施の形態のキーレスエントリー装置によれば、高感度な検出が可能で、電極の表出による外乱を受けにくく、設置場所の制約条件が少ないドアが主要な構成部材として備えられ、外側ドアハンドル23および内側ドアハンドル24のみの操作でドア開閉装置が動作され、また、接点接合のストロークが存在しないため、ドア開閉の操作をした瞬間からドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段が動作するまでの時間差がない。従って、ドア開閉の操作をしてから、本体側制御手段のロック解除・施錠制御手段48がドアロック手段22へ解錠および施錠をするまでの時間を、大幅に短縮でき、急峻なドアの開閉に対応した、ロック手段22の解除および施錠が可能となる。   Further, according to the keyless entry device of the present embodiment, a door that is capable of high-sensitivity detection, is less susceptible to disturbance due to the exposure of the electrode, and has few installation site restrictions, is provided as a main constituent member. The door opening / closing device is operated only by the operation of the door handle 23 and the inner door handle 24, and since there is no contact joining stroke, the door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means is provided from the moment when the door opening / closing operation is performed. There is no time difference until operation. Therefore, the time from the door opening / closing operation until the unlocking / locking control means 48 of the main body side control means unlocks and locks the door locking means 22 can be greatly shortened, and the door is opened and closed sharply. It is possible to release and lock the locking means 22 corresponding to the above.

なお、本実施の形態では圧電素子材36を変形させる共通部位としてレバー30を使用したが、カム35またはL字状鉤31を使用しても良く、本実施の形態と同等の作用効果を期待できる。   In the present embodiment, the lever 30 is used as a common part for deforming the piezoelectric element material 36. However, the cam 35 or the L-shaped rod 31 may be used, and the same effect as the present embodiment is expected. it can.

また、本実施の形態のドア開閉装置では、外側または内側からのドアの開閉の操作でドア係合手段25の解除および係合と同時にドアロック手段22の解錠および施錠する形態について説明したが、外側と内側からのドアを開く操作でドア係合手段の解除と同時にドアロック手段の解錠のみのドア開閉装置であっても良く、そして斯かるドア開閉装置にあっては、本実施の形態のドア係合解除・ドア係合作動手段26をドア係合解除作動手段に、そしてドア係合解除・ドア係合信号検出手段27をドア係合解除信号検出手段に、ドア解除・係合判定手段39をドア解除判定手段に、ドア開閉操作者判定手段47をドア開成操作者判定手段に、それぞれ置き換えて構成するものである。   In the door opening and closing device of the present embodiment, the form in which the door locking means 22 is unlocked and locked simultaneously with the release and engagement of the door engaging means 25 by the operation of opening and closing the door from the outside or the inside has been described. The door opening / closing device may be a door opening / closing device that only unlocks the door locking means simultaneously with the release of the door engaging means by opening the doors from the outside and the inside, and in such a door opening / closing device, Type door engagement release / door engagement operation means 26 as door engagement release operation means, and door engagement release / door engagement signal detection means 27 as door engagement release signal detection means. The determination means 39 is replaced with a door release determination means, and the door opening / closing operator determination means 47 is replaced with a door opening operator determination means.

そして、ドア係合解除信号検出手段は外側と内側からのいずれのドア開成の操作にも連動するドア係合解除作動手段の作動を受けて信号を発生し、この信号を受けた本体側制御手段がドアロック手段のロックを解錠するので、外側と内側からのいずれのドア開成と併せてドアロックも解錠でき、外側と内側からのいずれのドア開成も従来に比べ煩雑さがなくなり操作が楽にできるとともに、ドア開成の操作時における本実施の形態と同等の作用効果を期待できる。   The door engagement release signal detection means generates a signal in response to the operation of the door engagement release operation means interlocked with the door opening operation from either the outside or the inside, and the body side control means that receives this signal Unlocks the lock of the door lock means, so that the door lock can be unlocked together with the opening of the door from the outside and inside, and the opening of the door from the outside and inside is less complicated than before. In addition to being easy, it is possible to expect the same effect as the present embodiment at the time of opening the door.

また、本実施の形態のドア開閉装置は自動車に搭載した形態を以て説明したが、外側と内側からドアを開閉して出入する建物である住宅、倉庫、業務用冷蔵庫、船舶、飛行機等、または外側からのみドアを開閉する金庫等のドア開閉装置に使用しても良いものである。   Moreover, although the door opening and closing device of the present embodiment has been described as being mounted on an automobile, it is a building that opens and closes the door from the outside and inside, such as a house, warehouse, commercial refrigerator, ship, airplane, etc. It may be used for door opening and closing devices such as safes that open and close the door only from the door.

また、本実施の形態のドア開閉装置ではドア21を開閉するため外側ドアハンドル23および内側ドアハンドル24の操作に連動する共通部位であるレバー30またはカム35またはL字状鉤31により圧電素子材36を変形させて加速度を得る構成にしたが、外側ドアハンドル23および内側ドアハンドル24を引っ張る、または押す、またはタッチする操作により伝播する振動を受けた共通部位であるレバー30またはカム35またはL字状鉤31を介して圧電素子材36が検出する構成であっても良い。   Further, in the door opening and closing device of the present embodiment, the piezoelectric element material is provided by the lever 30 or the cam 35 or the L-shaped rod 31 which is a common part interlocked with the operation of the outer door handle 23 and the inner door handle 24 to open and close the door 21. 36 is deformed to obtain acceleration, but the lever 30 or the cam 35 or L, which is a common part subjected to vibrations propagated by pulling, pushing, or touching the outer door handle 23 and the inner door handle 24. The structure which the piezoelectric element material 36 detects via the character-shaped collar 31 may be sufficient.

以上のように、本発明にかかるドア開閉装置は、外側と内側からのいずれのドア開成またはドア開閉の操作でも、併せてドアロックも解錠または解錠および施錠でき、使用者にとってドア開閉の操作が容易で、自動車、住宅、倉庫、業務用冷蔵庫、船舶、飛行機、金庫等のドアに適用できる。   As described above, the door opening and closing device according to the present invention can unlock or unlock and lock the door lock in any door opening or door opening operation from the outside or inside.
