本実施形態の車輌用遠隔始動システムのブロック図である。It is a block diagram of the remote start system for vehicles of this embodiment.

以下、本発明を図に示した実施形態を用いて詳細に説明する。但し、この実施形態に記載される構成要素、種類、組み合わせ、形状、その相対配置などは特定的な記載がない限り、この発明の範囲をそれのみに限定する主旨ではなく単なる説明例に過ぎない。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings. However, the components, types, combinations, shapes, relative arrangements, and the like described in this embodiment are merely illustrative examples and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention only unless otherwise specified. .

図１に、本実施形態の車輌用遠隔始動システムのブロック図を示す。図１に示すように、車輌用遠隔始動システム１０は、携帯端末１２と、リモコン２４（操作装置）を用い、車輌３６に取り付けられた車載装置３８との間で様々な情報の送受信を行うものである。   FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a vehicle remote start system according to this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the vehicle remote start system 10 transmits and receives various information between the mobile terminal 12 and an in-vehicle device 38 attached to the vehicle 36 by using a remote controller 24 (operation device). It is.

携帯端末１２は、車輌３６を保有するドライバーが所持するものであり、高機能携帯（スマートフォン（登録商標））等である。また携帯端末１２はタッチパネル等の表示装置１４（表示部及び外部入力部）を有するとともに、アプリケーションを動作させるＣＰＵ装置１６、無線通信（近距離無線（例えばＢｌｕｅｔｏｏｔｈ（登録商標）：２．４ＧＨｚ帯））による送受信を行う近距離無線装置２２を有する。また携帯端末１２には、制御部１８、演算部２０がアプリケーションとしてインストールされている。   The portable terminal 12 is possessed by a driver who owns the vehicle 36, and is a high-function portable (smart phone (registered trademark)) or the like. The mobile terminal 12 includes a display device 14 (display unit and external input unit) such as a touch panel, a CPU device 16 that operates an application, and wireless communication (short-range wireless (for example, Bluetooth (registered trademark): 2.4 GHz band). ) Has a short-range wireless device 22 for transmitting and receiving. Moreover, the control part 18 and the calculating part 20 are installed in the portable terminal 12 as an application.

制御部１８は、ＣＰＵ装置１６を介して様々な制御を行うとともに、表示装置１４、演算部２０、近距離無線装置２２に接続されている。制御部１８は、ドライバーの手動操作により表示装置１４（外部入力部）から指令信号を受けた場合、また後述のように、予定送信日時になったときにおいて表示装置１４（外部入力部）から返答信号（Ｙｅｓ）を受けた場合に、遠隔始動信号を、近距離無線装置２２を介して送信するものである。   The control unit 18 performs various controls via the CPU device 16 and is connected to the display device 14, the calculation unit 20, and the short-range wireless device 22. The control unit 18 responds from the display device 14 (external input unit) when a command signal is received from the display device 14 (external input unit) by manual operation of the driver, or when a scheduled transmission date and time is reached, as will be described later. When receiving the signal (Yes), the remote start signal is transmitted via the short-range wireless device 22.

演算部２０は、ＣＰＵ装置１６を介して動作するものであり、制御部１８が遠隔始動信号を送信した日時（曜日）を携帯端末１２に付属する記憶領域（不図示）に履歴情報として記憶するとともに、履歴情報から遠隔始動信号を送信した日時（曜日）の周期性等に基づいて次の遠隔始動信号の予定送信日時の情報を演算して制御部１８に出力するものである。   The computing unit 20 operates via the CPU device 16 and stores the date and time (day of week) when the control unit 18 transmits the remote start signal as history information in a storage area (not shown) attached to the mobile terminal 12. At the same time, information on the scheduled transmission date and time of the next remote start signal is calculated based on the periodicity of the date and time (day of the week) when the remote start signal is transmitted from the history information, and is output to the control unit 18.

リモコン２４は、携帯端末１２と車載装置３８との間の信号（情報）の送受信の中継を行うものである。リモコン２４は、携帯端末１２から送信された遠隔始動信号を受信することにより、無線通信よりも通信の到達距離（通信距離）の長い第２の無線通信（例えば、９２０ＭＨｚ帯や４２９ＭＨｚ帯、到達距離は１００〜１０００ｍ程度）を介して遠隔始動信号を車輌３６に送信することができる。このリモコン２４は、ドライバーが保持するか、携帯端末１２からの近距離無線通信が到達する範囲（１ｍ〜１０ｍ程度）に配置する。   The remote controller 24 relays transmission / reception of signals (information) between the mobile terminal 12 and the in-vehicle device 38. The remote controller 24 receives the remote start signal transmitted from the mobile terminal 12, thereby allowing the second wireless communication (for example, the 920 MHz band, the 429 MHz band, the reaching distance) to be longer than the wireless communication. The remote start signal can be transmitted to the vehicle 36 via a 100 to 1000 m. The remote controller 24 is held by the driver or disposed within a range (about 1 m to 10 m) where short-range wireless communication from the mobile terminal 12 can reach.

リモコン２４は、無線通信により携帯端末１２との間で情報の送受信を行う近距離無線装置２６、第２の無線通信により車載装置３８との間で情報の送受信を行う長距離無線装置２８を有する。またリモコン２４は、表示装置３０、ＣＰＵ装置３２、スイッチ３４を有する。近距離無線通信装置２６は、携帯端末１２（近距離無線装置２２）から送信された遠隔始動信号を受信してこれを長距離無線装置２８に出力し、長距離無線装置２８から出力された車載装置３８から送信された情報（後述の始動検知信号、動作検知信号、温度情報）を携帯端末１２（近距離無線装置２２）に送信するものである。また、長距離無線装置２８は、近距離無線装置２６から入力された遠隔始動信号を車載装置３８に送信し、車載装置３８から送信された情報を近距離無線装置２６に出力するものである。   The remote control 24 includes a short-range wireless device 26 that transmits and receives information to and from the portable terminal 12 by wireless communication, and a long-range wireless device 28 that transmits and receives information to and from the in-vehicle device 38 by second wireless communication. . The remote controller 24 includes a display device 30, a CPU device 32, and a switch 34. The short-range wireless communication device 26 receives a remote start signal transmitted from the mobile terminal 12 (short-range wireless device 22), outputs the remote start signal to the long-range wireless device 28, and is output from the long-range wireless device 28. Information (start detection signal, operation detection signal, temperature information described later) transmitted from the device 38 is transmitted to the mobile terminal 12 (short-range wireless device 22). Further, the long-range wireless device 28 transmits a remote start signal input from the short-range wireless device 26 to the in-vehicle device 38 and outputs information transmitted from the in-vehicle device 38 to the short-range wireless device 26.

ＣＰＵ装置３２は、リモコン２４全体の動作を制御するものであるが、ドライバーによるスイッチ３４の手動操作により入力された信号によって、長距離無線装置２８を介して遠隔始動信号（制御部１８が出力する遠隔始動信号と同一のもの）を車載装置３８に出力することができる。表示装置３０は、ＣＰＵ装置３２による制御を介して、後述の温度情報など様々な情報を表示するものである。   The CPU device 32 controls the overall operation of the remote controller 24. A remote start signal (output from the control unit 18) is output via the long-range wireless device 28 by a signal input by manual operation of the switch 34 by the driver. The same remote start signal) can be output to the in-vehicle device 38. The display device 30 displays various information such as temperature information described below through control by the CPU device 32.

一方、遠隔始動を行う車輌３６に取り付けられている車載装置３８は、車輌３６全体の動作を制御する車輌制御装置４０（ＥＣＵ：Ｅｎｇｉｎｅ Ｃｏｎｔｒｏｌ Ｕｎｉｔ）に接続され、リモコン２４から送信された遠隔始動信号を受信すると車輌制御装置４０にエンジン始動に係るＥＣＵ信号を出力する。   On the other hand, the in-vehicle device 38 attached to the vehicle 36 that performs remote start is connected to a vehicle control device 40 (ECU: Engine Control Unit) that controls the operation of the entire vehicle 36, and a remote start signal transmitted from the remote control 24. Is received, the ECU control signal for starting the engine is output to the vehicle control device 40.

上記構成による車輌用遠隔始動システム１０の動作について説明する。まず、演算部２０が次の予定送信日時を演算する。予定送信日時の演算は、例えば、以下のように行う。演算部２０は、携帯端末１２の記憶領域に記憶された遠隔始動信号の送信の履歴情報を読み出し、履歴情報から遠隔始動信号の周期性を読み取る。すなわち、同じ曜日の同じ時間帯（例えば、時間幅を１時間とし、朝の７時代、朝の８時代というように区分けする）における遠隔始動信号を送信した時刻を抽出して、その平均値を算出し、その平均値を予定送信日時にすることができる。また、同じ曜日の同じ時間帯の分布密度を算出し、その分布密度がピークとなるところを予定送信日時とすることもできる。なお、予定送信日時の他の演算方法として、ファジー理論等を用いてもよい。また、遠隔始動信号の周期性については、曜日、時間のみならず月（季節）ごとの周期性を考慮してもよい。   The operation of the vehicle remote start system 10 having the above configuration will be described. First, the calculation unit 20 calculates the next scheduled transmission date and time. The calculation of the scheduled transmission date is performed as follows, for example. The arithmetic unit 20 reads out the remote start signal transmission history information stored in the storage area of the mobile terminal 12 and reads the periodicity of the remote start signal from the history information. That is, the time at which the remote start signal is transmitted in the same time zone on the same day of the week (for example, the time width is set to 1 hour and the morning 7 era and the morning 8 era are divided) is extracted, and the average value is extracted. It is possible to calculate and use the average value as the scheduled transmission date and time. Further, the distribution density of the same time zone on the same day of the week can be calculated, and the place where the distribution density peaks can be set as the scheduled transmission date and time. Note that fuzzy theory or the like may be used as another calculation method for the scheduled transmission date and time. As for the periodicity of the remote start signal, not only the day of the week and time but also the periodicity of each month (season) may be considered.

また、履歴情報において、例えば同じ曜日の各時間帯について最近の数週間分もしくは数か月分の遠隔始動信号の送信回数（エンジンの始動回数）を積算し、最も頻度（回数）が多い時間帯（午前の時間帯、午後の時間帯）を選択してもよい。この場合、予定送信日時はドライバーが設定した任意の時間（例えば、選択された時間帯が朝の７時代であれば朝の７時２０分）でもよいし、上述の方法で算出してもよい。   Also, in the history information, for example, for each time zone on the same day of the week, the number of remote start signal transmissions (engine start times) for the last several weeks or months is integrated, and the time zone with the highest frequency (number of times) (Morning time zone, afternoon time zone) may be selected. In this case, the scheduled transmission date and time may be any time set by the driver (for example, 7:20 in the morning if the selected time zone is the 7th morning), or may be calculated by the method described above. .

一方、制御部１８は、予定送信日時の情報が演算部２０から入力され、実際の予定送信日時になったときに遠隔始動を行うか否かの判断を促す催促情報を携帯端末１２の表示装置１４に出力する。   On the other hand, the control unit 18 receives information on the scheduled transmission date and time from the calculation unit 20 and displays prompt information that prompts the user to determine whether or not to perform remote start when the actual scheduled transmission date and time is reached. 14 for output.

ドライバーは、表示装置１４（表示部）に表示された催促情報（例えば、「エンジン始動しますか？ Ｙｅｓ Ｎｏ」と表示する）を確認し、エンジン始動する場合には「Ｙｅｓ」と表示された部分をタッチ（タップ）し、始動しない場合は「Ｎｏ」と表示された部分をタッチする。このタッチ操作により表示装置１４（外部入力部）から返答信号（Ｙｅｓ）、または返答信号（Ｎｏ）が出力され、いずれかの返答信号が制御部１８に入力される。   The driver confirms the prompt information displayed on the display device 14 (display unit) (for example, “Do you want to start the engine? Yes No”), and when the engine starts, “Yes” is displayed. Touch (tap) the part, and if it does not start, touch the part displayed as “No”. By this touch operation, a response signal (Yes) or a response signal (No) is output from the display device 14 (external input unit), and one of the response signals is input to the control unit 18.

制御部１８は、返答信号（Ｙｅｓ）が入力された場合は、遠隔始動信号を出力し、返答信号（Ｎｏ）が入力された場合には遠隔始動信号を出力しない制御を行う。携帯端末１２から遠隔始動信号が送信されるとリモコン２４がこれを受信して車載装置３８に送信する。そして、遠隔始動信号を受信した車載装置３８がエンジン始動に係るＥＣＵ信号を車輌制御装置４０に出力することにより、車輌制御装置４０がエンジンを始動させ、これにより車輌３６の遠隔始動の動作が完了する。   The control unit 18 outputs a remote start signal when a response signal (Yes) is input, and performs a control not to output a remote start signal when a response signal (No) is input. When a remote start signal is transmitted from the portable terminal 12, the remote controller 24 receives it and transmits it to the in-vehicle device 38. Then, the in-vehicle device 38 that has received the remote start signal outputs an ECU signal related to engine start to the vehicle control device 40, whereby the vehicle control device 40 starts the engine, thereby completing the operation of remote start of the vehicle 36. To do.

本実施形態の車輌用遠隔始動システム１０は、上述のように、予定送信日時に遠隔始動信号の送信の催促を行い、返答信号（Ｙｅｓ）を受けて遠隔始動信号を送信するが、ドライバーの表示装置１４（外部入力部）の手動操作、及びリモコン２４のスイッチ３４の手動操作によっても遠隔始動信号を送信することができる。   As described above, the vehicle remote start system 10 according to the present embodiment prompts transmission of a remote start signal at the scheduled transmission date and time, and transmits a remote start signal in response to a response signal (Yes). The remote start signal can also be transmitted by manual operation of the device 14 (external input unit) and manual operation of the switch 34 of the remote controller 24.

ところで、本実施形態の車輌用遠隔始動システム１０が未使用である場合は、履歴情報は存在しない。また、使用し始める最初の週においては、ドライバーによる表示装置１４（外部入力部）の操作により表示装置１４（外部入力部）から指令信号を受けた制御部１８が遠隔始動信号を出力することにより履歴情報を得る。しかし、この履歴情報では同じ曜日で同じ時間帯に遠隔始動信号を送信した回数がまだ１回であるので、前述の時間帯の選択、平均値または分布密度の算出できない。よって、第２週においては、履歴情報をそのまま予定送信日時として用いることになるが、第３週以降は前述の時間帯の選択、平均値または分布密度の算出が可能となる。   By the way, when the vehicle remote start system 10 of this embodiment is not used, there is no history information. In the first week to start using, the control unit 18 that receives a command signal from the display device 14 (external input unit) by operating the display device 14 (external input unit) by the driver outputs a remote start signal. Get history information. However, in this history information, the remote start signal is transmitted once in the same time zone on the same day of the week, so it is not possible to select the above time zone and calculate the average value or distribution density. Thus, in the second week, the history information is used as it is as the scheduled transmission date and time, but from the third week onward, it is possible to select the above-mentioned time zone and calculate the average value or distribution density.

また、例えば、前述の平均値等により算出した予定送信日時に催促情報を出力して、ドライバーが返答信号（Ｎｏ）を出力し、その後ドライバーが表示装置１４（外部入力部）を用いて制御部１８に遠隔始動信号を出力させた場合、制御部１８（または演算部２０）は、算出された予定送信日時と実際に遠隔始動信号を出力した時間の差分を算出し、次の予定送信日時に補正値として加算して予定送信日時の算出精度を高めるようにしてもよい。   Further, for example, the reminder information is output at the scheduled transmission date and time calculated by the average value described above, the driver outputs a response signal (No), and then the driver uses the display device 14 (external input unit) to control the control unit. When the remote start signal is output to the control unit 18, the control unit 18 (or the calculation unit 20) calculates the difference between the calculated scheduled transmission date and time when the remote start signal is actually output, and sets the next scheduled transmission date and time. It may be added as a correction value to increase the calculation accuracy of the scheduled transmission date and time.

上記構成では、履歴情報は、制御部１８から送信される遠隔始動信号に基づいて生成していた。しかし、車輌３６に搭載された車輛制御装置４０が出力するイグニッション信号（エンジンを始動させるための信号）を車載装置３８が検知し、車載装置３８がこのイグニッション信号を検知したことを示す始動検知信号を、リモコン２４を介して携帯端末１２に送信し、制御部１８（または演算部２０）が始動検知信号を受信した時刻により履歴情報を生成してもよい。これにより、ドライバーがリモコン２４や専用キーを用いて車輌３６のエンジン始動を行った場合にも履歴情報を更新することができる。   In the above configuration, the history information is generated based on the remote start signal transmitted from the control unit 18. However, the in-vehicle device 38 detects an ignition signal (signal for starting the engine) output from the vehicle control device 40 mounted on the vehicle 36, and a start detection signal indicating that the in-vehicle device 38 has detected this ignition signal. May be transmitted to the portable terminal 12 via the remote controller 24, and the history information may be generated based on the time when the control unit 18 (or the calculation unit 20) receives the start detection signal. Thus, the history information can be updated even when the driver starts the engine of the vehicle 36 using the remote controller 24 or the dedicated key.

また、予定送信日時にエンジンがすでに動作している場合は、例えば車輌制御装置４０が出力している点火機構、燃料系統、吸排気系統、動弁機構等を制御するための制御信号を車載装置３８が検知することができる。この場合、車載装置３８は、その制御信号を検知したことを示す動作検知信号を、リモコン２４を介して携帯端末１２に送信する。そして制御部１８は、動作検知信号を受信している間は、催促情報及び遠隔始動信号を出力しないように制御すればよい。また、制御部１８（または演算部２０）は、この場合においても、前述の始動検知信号を受信した時刻と予定送信日時の差分を算出し、次の予定送信日時の補正値として加算（減算）して予定送信日時の算出精度を高めるようにしてもよい。   Further, when the engine is already operating at the scheduled transmission date and time, for example, a control signal for controlling an ignition mechanism, a fuel system, an intake / exhaust system, a valve mechanism, and the like output from the vehicle control device 40 is transmitted to the in-vehicle device. 38 can be detected. In this case, the in-vehicle device 38 transmits an operation detection signal indicating that the control signal has been detected to the mobile terminal 12 via the remote controller 24. And the control part 18 should just control not to output prompting information and a remote start signal, while receiving the operation | movement detection signal. In this case as well, the control unit 18 (or the calculation unit 20) calculates the difference between the time when the start detection signal is received and the scheduled transmission date and time, and adds (subtracts) it as a correction value for the next scheduled transmission date and time. Thus, the calculation accuracy of the scheduled transmission date and time may be improved.

なお、制御部１８は、予定送信日時になると催促情報を出力する旨説明したが、催促情報を出さずに直ちに遠隔始動信号を出力するようにしてもよい。また、携帯端末１２が遠隔始動信号を送信する構成としたが、携帯端末１２が遠隔始動信号の代わりに指令信号をリモコン２４に送信し、リモコン２４が当該指令信号を受信することによりＣＰＵ装置３２が遠隔始動信号を送信する構成としてもよい。また、外部入力部は表示装置３０（タッチパネル）の一部としていたが、マイク等の音声を取り込む手段と、取り込んだ音声を制御部１８等が識別できるテキストデータ等に変換するデータ変換手段により構築してもよい。   Although the control unit 18 has been described to output the prompting information when the scheduled transmission date / time is reached, the remote start signal may be output immediately without outputting the prompting information. Further, the mobile terminal 12 transmits the remote start signal, but the mobile terminal 12 transmits a command signal to the remote controller 24 instead of the remote start signal, and the remote controller 24 receives the command signal, whereby the CPU device 32 is transmitted. May be configured to transmit a remote start signal. The external input unit is a part of the display device 30 (touch panel). However, the external input unit is constructed by means for capturing sound such as a microphone and data conversion means for converting the captured sound into text data that can be identified by the control unit 18 or the like. May be.

予定送信日時の設定のための動作を予め行うことなく、予定送信日時において車輌の遠隔始動が可能な車輌用遠隔始動システムとして利用できる。   The present invention can be used as a vehicle remote start system capable of remotely starting a vehicle at a scheduled transmission date and time without previously performing an operation for setting the scheduled transmission date and time.
