Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a pinching load during a tilt-closing motion of a roof opening/closing body by changing torque during the tilt-closing motion, without the use of an oscillation device for oscillating a voltage input into a motor part. <P>SOLUTION: A sunroof opening/closing control unit 10 brings about the tilt-closing motion of a roof opening/closing body 86 by the switching and rotational drive of the first and second motor parts 20 and 22 different in output torque from each other. Thus, the torque during the tilt-closing motion of the roof opening/closing body 86 can be changed without the use of the oscillation device for oscillating the voltage input into the first and second motor parts 20 and 22. Additionally, the first motor part 20 with low output torque makes the tilt-closing motion of the roof opening/closing body 86, until a traveling speed of a vehicle 80 reaches a predetermined speed (100 km/h). This enables a reduction in the pinching load during the tilt-closing motion of the roof opening/closing body 86. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

The connection of the two contacts 62a and 62b is switched to 70b.

  The control unit 56 is configured by an ECU (Electronic Control Unit), and based on output signals from the vehicle speed sensor 12, the operation switch 14, and the rotation detection sensor 52, the drive relays 58 and 60 of the drive unit 54. 62, the first clutch 46, and the second clutch 48 are controlled. The operation of the control unit 56 will be described in detail below.

  Next, the operation of the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 4 shows a flowchart showing the tilt opening operation of the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 5 shows the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention. A flowchart showing the tilt closing operation is shown.

  When the operator performs a tilt opening operation on the operation switch 14, an operation signal corresponding to the tilt opening operation is output from the operation switch 14 to the control unit 56 of the motor unit 16. When the control unit 56 detects an operation signal corresponding to the tilt opening operation output from the operation switch 14, the control unit 56 starts the program processing shown in the flowchart of FIG.

  When starting the program processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 4, the control unit 56 first disconnects the first clutch 46 and connects the second clutch 48 (step S1). Subsequently, the control unit 56 operates the second motor unit 22 in a direction in which the roof opening / closing body 86 performs a tilt opening operation (step S2). That is, the control unit 56 switches the movable terminal 60c of the drive relay 60 and connects it to the contact 60b while keeping the movable terminal 62c of the drive relay 62 connected to the contact 62a. As a result, the second motor unit 22 enters a state in which one power supply terminal 70a is connected to the battery drive power supply + B and the other power supply terminal 70b is connected to the ground GND, and the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-opened. Operate in the direction.

  In this way, when the second motor unit 22 is operated in a direction to open the roof opening / closing body 86 in a state where the first clutch 46 is disconnected and the second clutch 48 is connected, the worm shaft 36 rotates. Then, the output shaft 40 rotates together with the helical gear 38. As a result, an operation mechanism (not shown) connected to the roof opening / closing body 86 is operated, and the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-opened. At this time, the rotation detection signal is output from the rotation detection sensor 52 to the control unit 56 by rotating the sensor magnet 50 together with the worm shaft 36.

  Then, the control unit 56 detects the amount of operation of the roof opening / closing body 86 in the tilt opening direction based on the rotation detection signal output from the rotation detection sensor 52 (step S3), and based on the detection result, the roof opening / closing body. It is determined whether or not 86 has reached the fully tilted position (step S4). At this time, if the control unit 56 determines that the roof opening / closing body 86 has not reached the tilt fully open position (step S4: NO), the control unit 56 returns to the process of step S3.

  On the other hand, when the control unit 56 determines that the roof opening / closing body 86 has reached the tilt fully open position (step S4: YES), the control unit 56 stops the second motor unit 22 (step S5). That is, the control unit 56 controls the switching of the movable terminal 60c of the drive relay 60 and connects it to the contact 60a. As a result, the second motor unit 22 stops with one power supply terminal 70a and the other power supply terminal 70b connected to the ground GND. Further, when the second motor unit 22 is stopped, the roof opening / closing body 86 is stopped in a state in which the roof opening / closing body 86 has reached the fully opened position.

  In the present embodiment, when the operator opens / closes the operation switch 14, the first clutch 46 is disengaged and the second clutch is opened in the same manner as when the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-opened. When the movable terminal 60c of the drive relay 60 and the movable terminal 62c of the drive relay 62 are controlled to be switched while the 48 is connected, the second motor unit 22 is rotated in both directions. In this way, the roof opening / closing body 86 is slidably opened / closed by rotating the second motor unit 22 bidirectionally.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, when the operator performs the tilt closing operation of the operation switch 14, the control unit 56 operates as follows. That is, when the operator performs a tilt closing operation on the operation switch 14, an operation signal corresponding to the tilt closing operation is output from the operation switch 14 to the control unit 56 of the motor unit 16. When the control unit 56 detects an operation signal corresponding to the tilt closing operation output from the operation switch 14, the control unit 56 starts the program processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 5.

  When starting the program processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 5, the control unit 56 first detects the speed of the vehicle 80 based on the speed detection signal output from the vehicle speed sensor 12 (step S11), and based on the detection result. Then, it is determined whether or not the speed of the vehicle 80 is high (for example, 100 km / h or more) (step S12).

  When determining that the speed of the vehicle 80 is not high (step S12: NO), the control unit 56 connects the first clutch 46 and disconnects the second clutch 48 (step S13). Subsequently, the control unit 56 operates the first motor unit 20 in a direction in which the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-closed (step S14). That is, the control unit 56 switches and controls the movable terminal 58c of the drive relay 58 and connects it to the contact 58b. As a result, the first motor unit 20 enters a state in which one power supply terminal 68a is connected to the drive power supply + B of the battery and the other power supply terminal 68b is connected to the ground GND, and the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-closed. Operate in the direction.

  In this way, when the first motor unit 20 operates in a direction in which the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-closed in a state where the first clutch 46 is connected and the second clutch 48 is disconnected, the roof is opened together with the speed reduction unit 24. An operating mechanism (not shown) connected to the opening / closing body 86 is operated, and the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-closed. Then, the control unit 56 detects the amount of operation of the roof opening / closing body 86 in the tilt closing direction based on the rotation detection signal output from the rotation detection sensor 52 (step S15), and based on the detection result, the roof opening / closing body. It is determined whether 86 has reached the fully closed tilt position (step S16). At this time, when the control unit 56 determines that the roof opening / closing body 86 has not reached the tilt fully closed position (step S16: NO), the control unit 56 returns to the process of step S11.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the roof opening / closing body 86 has reached the tilt fully closed position (step S16: YES), the control unit 56 stops the first motor unit 20 (step S17). That is, the control unit 56 switches and controls the movable terminal 58c of the drive relay 58 to connect to the contact 58a. As a result, the first motor unit 20 stops with one power supply terminal 68a and the other power supply terminal 68b connected to the ground GND. In addition, when the first motor unit 20 is stopped, the roof opening / closing body 86 is stopped in a state where it reaches the fully closed tilt position.

  On the other hand, when the control unit 56 determines that the speed of the vehicle 80 is high in the process of step S12 described above (step S12: YES), the control unit 56 disconnects the first clutch 46 and the second clutch. 48 is connected (step S18). Subsequently, the control unit 56 stops the first motor unit 20 and operates the second motor unit 22 in a direction in which the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-closed (step S19).

  That is, the control unit 56 performs switching control of the movable terminal 58c of the drive relay 58 and connects it to the contact 58a, and switches the movable terminal 62c of the drive relay 62 while keeping the movable terminal 60c of the drive relay 60 connected to the contact 60a. Control to connect to the contact 62b. As a result, the first motor unit 20 stops with one power supply terminal 68a and the other power supply terminal 68b connected to the ground GND. The second motor unit 22 is in a state in which one power supply terminal 70a is connected to the ground GND and the other power supply terminal 70b is connected to the driving power source + B of the battery, and the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-closed. Operates on.

  In this way, when the second motor unit 22 is operated in a direction for tilting and closing the roof opening / closing body 86 with the first clutch 46 disconnected and the second clutch 48 connected, the speed reduction unit 24 is operated. At the same time, an operation mechanism (not shown) connected to the roof opening / closing body 86 is operated, and the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilt-closed. On the other hand, when the control unit 58 determines that the roof opening / closing body 86 has reached the fully-tilted position of the tilt (step S16: YES), the second motor unit 22 is stopped (step S17). The body 86 stops when it reaches the fully closed tilt position.

  Next, the operation of the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described.

  According to the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention, as described above, the roof opening / closing body 86 is switched by rotating and driving the first motor unit 20 and the second motor unit 22 having different output torques. Can be tilted closed. Therefore, it is possible to change the torque during the tilt closing operation of the roof opening / closing body 86 without using an oscillation device for oscillating the input voltage to the first motor unit 20 and the second motor unit 22. This eliminates the need for heat dissipation measures and noise measures that are required when the oscillation device is provided, so that the entire device can be simplified and the cost can be reduced.

  Moreover, according to the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the control unit 56 performs switching control of the drive relays 58, 60, 62 based on the speed detection signal output from the vehicle speed sensor 12. The torque at the time of the tilt closing operation of the roof opening / closing body 86 can be changed according to the traveling speed of the vehicle 80.

  Further, in the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the roof opening / closing operation is performed until the traveling speed of the vehicle 80 reaches a predetermined speed (in this embodiment, 100 km / h as an example). The tilt closing operation of the body 86 is performed by the first motor unit 20 having a small output torque. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the sandwiching load when the roof opening / closing body 86 is tilted and closed.

  Further, in the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention, after the traveling speed of the vehicle 80 reaches a predetermined speed (in this embodiment, 100 km / h as an example), the roof opening / closing is performed. The tilt closing operation of the body 86 is performed by the second motor unit 22 having a large output torque. Therefore, it is possible to secure a closing load of the roof opening / closing body 86 during high-speed traveling.

  Further, in the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the tilt opening operation and the slide opening / closing operation of the roof opening / closing body 86 are performed by the second motor unit 22 regardless of the traveling speed of the vehicle 80. Therefore, it is possible to perform the tilt opening operation and the slide opening / closing operation of the roof opening / closing body 86 with high torque by the second motor unit 22.

  In the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention, the first motor unit 20 and the second motor unit 22 are arranged coaxially. Therefore, the motor unit 16 for opening and closing the roof opening / closing body 86 can be downsized in the radial direction. In addition, in the sunroof opening / closing control device 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention, the speed reduction unit 24 that reduces the rotational force of the first motor unit 20 and the second motor unit 22 and transmits it to the roof opening / closing body 86 side is provided. The motor unit 20 and the second motor unit 22 have a common configuration. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the size of the motor unit 16 by reducing the number of the speed reduction units 24.

Therefore, as described above, even if the speed reduction unit 24 is configured to be common to the first motor unit 20 and the second motor unit 22, the first clutch 46 and the second clutch 48 can be switched to switch the first clutch 46 and the second clutch 48. By switching between the motor unit 20 and the second motor unit 22, these rotational forces can be transmitted to the roof opening / closing body 86 side via the speed reduction unit 24.

  Next, a modification of one embodiment of the present invention will be described.
