  The locking motor 32 is disposed in each slide door body of the vehicle and other doors other than the slide doors, and is electrically connected to the body ECU 31 via a drive circuit (not shown). Therefore, when the locking motor 32 is driven, all the doors of the vehicle including the front door and the slide door body provided on the vehicle are locked (locked) or unlocked (unlocked) by the lock mechanism 34. . Thus, the body ECU 31 controls the locking motor 32. The body ECU 31 corresponds to control means and output means.

The locking motor 32 and the warning device 33 correspond to door lock means.
Further, the smart ECU 11, the power slide door ECU 21, and the body ECU 31 are connected to a communication cable capable of bidirectional communication and can cooperate with each other.

(Function)
Now, the operation of the locking device for the power slide door configured as described above will be described.
1. When the door lock is normally performed When the open / close operation switch 28 of the slide door body is closed by the user in a state where one of the slide door bodies (not shown) is located at the fully open position, the power slide door ECU 21 Based on the operation, the slide door motor M is operated via the motor drive circuit 22 to close the slide door body. The power slide door ECU 21 sends a door state signal to the body ECU 31 based on the phase of the pulses generated by the first door position sensor 26 and the second door position sensor 27 while the slide door body is closed. A door closing operation signal indicating that the door is being closed is output. The body ECU 31 sets the operation flag to “1” based on the door closing operation signal.

  On the other hand, during the closing operation of the slide door body, the user turns on the lock switch 13 provided on the front door for the reservation of the lock. Alternatively, the user operates the operation button of the remote operation key 14 during the closing operation of the slide door body, and transmits a lock operation signal to the transceiver 12.

  When the smart ECU 11 receives a lock operation signal input from the lock switch 13 or a lock operation signal via the transmitter / receiver 12, the smart ECU 11 moves the power slide door ECU 21 to the sliding door body that is being closed. A door lock reservation signal indicating that a door lock reservation has been made is output. When the body ECU 31 inputs this door lock reservation signal, the door lock reservation flag is set in a RAM (not shown).

  After this, the sliding door body that has been closed reaches the fully closed position by the operation of a door closer (not shown), and when the closed state is reached, the closing position switch 24 of the closer has reached the fully closed position. While detecting by turning on, the courtesy switch 23 is turned off. Further, the pulse input to the power slide door ECU 21 of the first door position sensor 26 and the second door position sensor 27 is stopped.

  On the basis of the closing position switch 24 being turned on, the courtesy switch 23 being turned off, and the pulse input of the first door position sensor 26 and the second door position sensor 27 being stopped, the power slide door ECU 21 performs the closing operation. The sliding door body outputs a closing completion signal indicating that the sliding door body has been closed to the body ECU 31.

  The body ECU 31 resets the operation flag from “1” to “0” when the closing completion signal is input. The body ECU 31 operates the locking motor 32 based on the fact that the operation flag has been reset from “1” to “0” and the door lock reservation flag is set in the RAM, and the lock mechanism 34 All doors of the vehicle including the provided front door and sliding door body are locked (locked).

2. When the door lock is not normally performed Since the same operation is performed until the door lock reservation flag of “1. When the door lock is normally performed” is set, the description is omitted.

  The case where the door lock is not normally performed is a case where the sliding door body during the closing operation is not closed for some reason. Such a state includes a case where the slide door body which has been closed is reversed to an opening operation, a case where the slide door is stopped, or a case where a sensor abnormality occurs.

(When the sliding door body is reversed)
When an overload is applied to the sliding door main body during the closing operation, such as when an object is caught in the door opening, the power slide door ECU 21 receives the power from the first door position sensor 26 and the second door position sensor 27. Overload detection is performed using the fact that the pulse interval becomes long.

  When the pulse interval is equal to or greater than the threshold value, the power sliding door ECU 21 determines that it is in an overload state, that is, determines that it is in an abnormal state, and reverses (opens) the sliding door motor M. Further, the power slide door ECU 21 indicates to the body ECU 31 that the door is being closed as a door state signal based on the phase of the pulses generated by the first door position sensor 26 and the second door position sensor 27. Outputs operating signal. Further, the power slide door ECU 21 outputs a warning signal to the body ECU 31 based on the overload state.

  Then, the body ECU 31 outputs an abnormality notification signal to the warning device 33 based on the states of both the operation flag “0” and the abnormality flag “1”, and activates the warning. Specifically, a sound signal as an abnormality notification signal is output to the horn, and a flashing signal as an abnormality notification signal is output and flashed to the headlamp and the vehicle width lamp.

(When the sliding door stops)
Also, if for some reason, for example, the power slide door ECU 21 that has been closed does not receive an off signal from the courtesy switch 23 and no rotation command is issued to the motor drive circuit 22, the power slide door ECU21 determines with it being in an abnormal state. Based on this determination, the power slide door ECU 21 outputs a door stop signal and a warning signal as a door state signal to the body ECU 31.

  When the door ECU 31 receives the door stop signal, the body ECU 31 resets the operation flag from “1” to “0” and sets the abnormality flag from “0” to “1” based on the warning signal.

  Then, the body ECU 31 causes the warning device 33 to perform a warning operation based on the states of both the operation flag “0” and the abnormality flag “1”. Specifically, the horn is sounded and the headlamp and the vehicle width lamp are blinked.

  Further, for example, when the slide door body stops due to a mechanical cause without inputting the off signal from the courtesy switch 23 from the power slide door ECU 21 that has been closed, the first door position Based on the signals from the sensor 26 and the second door position sensor 27, the power slide door ECU 21 determines that the slide door body is stopped. That is, the power slide door ECU 21 determines that the state is abnormal. Based on this determination, the power slide door ECU 21 outputs a door stop signal and a warning signal as a door state signal to the body ECU 31.

Then, the body ECU 31 causes the warning device 33 to perform a warning operation in the same manner as described above, based on the states of both the operation flag “0” and the abnormality flag “1”.
(Sensor abnormality)
Further, the power slide door ECU 21 detects whether or not the various sensors connected to the power slide door ECU 21 are in an abnormal state while the slide door main body is in the closing operation. For example, when only one of the first door position sensor 26 and the second door position sensor 27 is input, it is determined that the sensor is abnormal. That is, the power slide door ECU 21 determines that the state is abnormal. The sensor abnormality may be determined by a known method. When the sensor abnormality is detected in this way, the power slide door ECU 21 outputs a sensor abnormality signal and a warning signal to the body ECU 31. Then, the body ECU 31 activates the warning device 33 in the same manner as described above based on the input sensor abnormality signal and the states of both flags of the abnormality flag “1”.

According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.

For this reason, even when the user who owns the mobile phone 40 moves away from the vehicle, for example, to a place where the vehicle such as a building cannot be seen, there is an advantage that the user can be notified that the slide door body cannot be locked. .

In addition, you may change this embodiment as follows.
In the above embodiment, the locking device for the power slide door is embodied in a one-box car provided with the power slide door, but may be embodied in a vehicle such as a sedan having a power slide door.

In each of the above embodiments, the closer, the closed position switch 24, and the open position switch 25 are provided, but may be omitted.
In each of the above embodiments, the smart ECU 11 is used as a locking reservation receiving unit, but the body ECU 31 may be used as a locking reservation receiving unit. In this case, it is assumed that connection is made so that the body ECU 31 inputs an operation signal for locking the locking switch 13.

  In the embodiment, a horn, a headlamp, and a vehicle width lamp are used as the warning device. However, only the horn, only the headlamp, only the vehicle width light may be used, or a combination of a horn and a vehicle width light may be used. Alternatively, a combination of a headlamp and a horn may be used.

  In each of the above embodiments, the first door position sensor 26 and the second door position sensor 27 constitute the operation direction detection means, but may be changed to other known means for detecting the rotation direction of the motor.

  -In addition to the structure of 1st Embodiment, you may make it provide the timer 21a as a timer means in power slide door ECU21 (refer FIG. 1). When the opening / closing operation switch 28 is closed by the user, the timer 21a causes the power slide door ECU 21 to count the time from the start of the closing operation of the slide door body by the timer 21a.

  And power slide door ECU21 determines with an abnormal state, when the count value of the timer 21a exceeds the predetermined time exceeding the time required until it will be in a closed state from the maximum start position of the open state of a slide door main body. Here, the maximum starting position in the open state of the slide door body is a fully open position where the slide door body fully opens a door opening (not shown). In a normal state, a time set longer than the closing time required to reach the fully closed position (closed state) from the fully open position is set as the predetermined time.

  When the power slide door ECU 21 determines that the state is abnormal as described above, the power slide door ECU 21 reverses (opens) the slide door motor M and based on the phase of the pulses generated by the first door position sensor 26 and the second door position sensor 27. A door opening operation signal indicating that the door is being closed is output as a door state signal to the ECU 31. Further, the power slide door ECU 21 outputs a warning signal to the body ECU 31 based on the overload state.

  Then, the body ECU 31 outputs a warning signal as an abnormality notification signal to the warning device 33 based on the states of both the operation flag “0” and the abnormality flag “1”, and activates the warning.

  If comprised in this way, power slide door ECU21 will be in an abnormal state when the count value of the timer 21a exceeds the predetermined time exceeding the time required until it will be in a closed state from the maximum starting position of the open state of a power slide door. Therefore, it can be notified that the power slide door could not be locked. That is, since the slide door body closes with an abnormally slow operation, it cannot be locked and can be determined to be abnormal.

In the embodiment, the remote operation key 14 is a so-called smart key, but may be a remote control operation key such as a wireless key.
-In 2nd Embodiment, you may equip the remote operation key 14 with displays, such as a liquid crystal display device, as a display means instead of a vibrator. In this case, when receiving the abnormality notification signal, the CPU of the remote operation key 14 displays on the display that the slide door main body is closed with an abnormally slow operation and cannot be locked.

  -In 2nd Embodiment, you may make it equip the remote operation key 14 with the speaker as a sound generation means instead of a vibrator.
