JP 2006-161491 A

  By the way, in the power slide door device as described above, the inside door handle is fixedly arranged at a position near the front end of the slide door on the vehicle inner side. For this reason, when the slide door is in the fully closed state, the distance from the occupant seated in the seat on the side of the door opening to the inside door handle tends to be long. That is, in the power slide door device as described above, there is a possibility that an occupant seated in a seat on the side of the door opening may have difficulty operating the inside door handle depending on the open / closed state of the slide door.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle operation detection device that facilitates an operation input for an occupant to open and close the slide door regardless of the open / closed state of the slide door, and a slide door device including the vehicle operation detection device. It is.

Hereinafter, means for solving the above-described problems and the effects thereof will be described.
A vehicle operation detection device that solves the above problem is a long vehicle operation detection device that is attached to a slide door, and includes a first detection unit and a second detection unit that detect an operation input, and the first detection unit. Based on the detection result, an opening operation command signal for opening the slide door is output, and on the basis of the detection result of the second detection unit, a closing operation command signal for closing the slide door is output. A control unit, wherein the first detection unit is disposed at a position near a first end in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle operation detection device, and the second detection unit is arranged with the first end in the longitudinal direction. Is disposed at a position near the second end on the opposite side.

  It is assumed that the vehicle operation detection device is attached to the slide door such that the first end and the second end of the vehicle operation detection device are the rear side and the front side of the vehicle, respectively. In this case, if the second detection unit is arranged at a position near the front end of the slide door, the first detection unit is arranged at a position behind the front end of the slide door. That is, when the second detection unit configured to detect an operation input for closing the slide door is arranged at a position near the front end of the slide door, the first detection unit for detecting the operation input for opening the slide door is the slide door. It is arrange | positioned in the back position rather than the front end.

  For this reason, when the slide door is in the fully closed state, the second detection unit is disposed at a position near the front end of the door opening provided on the side surface of the vehicle, and the first detection unit is located behind the second detection unit. Placed in position. Further, when the slide door is in the fully open state, the slide door moves rearward with respect to the door opening, compared to when the slide door is in the fully closed state. For this reason, when the slide door is in the fully open state, the first detection unit and the second detection unit are disposed at a position behind the door opening, compared to when the slide door is in the fully closed state.

  Therefore, the distance from the occupant seated on the side seat of the door opening to the first detection unit when the sliding door is in the fully closed state tends to be short. In addition, the distance from the occupant to the second detection unit when the slide door is in the fully open state tends to be short. In this way, it becomes easier for the occupant to perform an operation input for opening and closing the slide door to the vehicle operation detection device regardless of the open / closed state of the slide door.

  In the vehicle operation detection device, each of the first detection unit and the second detection unit is a capacitance sensor having an electrode whose capacitance increases as the distance from the detection target decreases. Outputs the opening operation command signal according to the capacitance of the electrode of the first detection unit, and outputs the closing operation command signal according to the capacitance of the electrode of the second detection unit. Is preferred.

  According to the said structure, the passenger | crew can perform operation input by making a hand approach the 1st detection part and the 2nd detection part, or making a hand contact. In other words, the occupant can input an operation without pulling or turning the inside door handle, for example. In this way, the burden when performing the operation input of the passenger is reduced.

  In the vehicle operation detection device, the control unit is configured such that when the capacitance of the electrode of the first detection unit is equal to or greater than a determination value set as a lower limit value for determining contact of the detection target, It is preferable to output an opening operation command signal and output the closing operation command signal when the capacitance of the electrode of the second detection unit is equal to or greater than the determination value.

  For example, when the distance between the passenger sitting on the seat and the vehicle operation detection device provided on the slide door is short, the passenger's body may approach the electrodes of the first detection unit and the second detection unit. . In this case, the control unit may output an opening operation command signal and a closing operation command signal based on an operation input not intended by the passenger.

  In this regard, according to the above-described configuration, the controller is configured to provide an opening operation command signal and A closing operation command signal is output. That is, the control unit outputs the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal on condition that the occupant performs an operation input in a state where the hand is in contact with the detection device. As a result, the sliding door is prevented from being opened and closed based on an operation input not intended by the passenger.

  In the vehicle operation detection device, each of the first detection unit and the second detection unit includes a plurality of the electrodes arranged in the longitudinal direction, and the control unit includes the first detection unit. When the electrodes whose capacitance changes in a plurality of electrodes of the unit are switched in a specific order, the opening operation command signal is output, and the capacitances of the plurality of electrodes of the second detection unit are The closing operation command signal is preferably output when the changing electrode is switched in a specific order.

  For example, when an occupant sitting on a seat leans on a slide door, a part of the occupant's body may approach the first detection unit and the second detection unit. In this case, the control unit may output an opening operation command signal and a closing operation command signal based on an operation input not intended by the passenger. However, in this case, the electrostatic capacity of the plurality of electrodes is likely to change simultaneously because a part of the occupant's body simultaneously approaches the plurality of electrodes constituting the first detection unit and the second detection unit.

  Therefore, in the above configuration, the control unit outputs the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal when the electrodes whose capacitance changes in the first detection unit and the second detection unit are switched in a specific order. For this reason, it is further suppressed that the sliding door is opened and closed based on an operation input not intended by the passenger.

  In the above-described vehicle operation detection device, the control unit is configured to switch among the plurality of electrodes of the first detection unit when the electrode whose capacitance changes in a direction from the second end toward the first end. The opening operation command signal is output, and the plurality of electrodes of the second detection unit are closed when the electrode whose capacitance changes in the direction from the first end toward the second end is switched. It is preferable to output an operation command signal.

  According to the above configuration, when the sliding door is opened, an operation input that traces the plurality of electrodes of the first detection unit is required in the moving direction of the sliding door that opens. Further, when the sliding door is closed, an operation input that traces the plurality of electrodes of the second detection unit in the moving direction of the sliding door that performs the closing operation is required. For this reason, opening / closing operation | movement of a slide door by the operation input which a passenger | crew does not intend is suppressed, suppressing complication of operation input.

  In the vehicle operation detection device, when a side on which the first detection unit and the second detection unit are provided is an inner side, a third detection unit that detects the operation input is provided on an outer side opposite to the inner side. The third detection unit is an electrostatic capacitance sensor having an electrode whose capacitance increases as the distance to the detection target decreases, and the control unit includes an electrostatic capacitance of the electrode of the third detection unit. It is preferable to output the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal according to the capacity.

  Assume that the vehicle operation detection device is attached to the slide door so that the inside of the vehicle operation detection device is the inside of the vehicle and the outside of the vehicle operation detection device is the outside of the vehicle. According to this, the operation input from the inside of the vehicle can be detected by the first detection unit and the second detection unit, and the operation input from the outside of the vehicle can be detected by the third detection unit. That is, the sliding door can be opened and closed based on an operation input from inside and outside the vehicle.

  In the vehicle operation detection device, the control unit outputs the opening operation command signal when the capacitance of the electrode of the first detection unit is equal to or higher than a first determination value set in advance, and the second operation command signal is output. When the capacitance of the electrode of the detection unit is greater than or equal to the first determination value, the closing operation command signal is output, and the capacitance of the electrode of the third detection unit is smaller than the first determination value. It is preferable that the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal are output when two or more determination values are exceeded.

  When the occupant is seated on the side seat of the slide door, the capacitance of the electrodes of the first detection unit and the second detection unit is due to the presence of the occupant in the vicinity of the first detection unit and the second detection unit. There are many opportunities that can be high. That is, the first detection unit and the second detection unit can easily detect an operation input not intended by the occupant as compared with the third detection unit.

  Therefore, in the above configuration, the first determination value used for the determination when outputting the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal according to the capacitances of the electrodes of the first detection unit and the second detection unit is the third determination value. In accordance with the capacitance of the electrode of the detection unit, the second determination value used for determination when outputting the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal is made larger. For this reason, it can suppress that a sliding door is opened and closed based on the operation input which the passenger | crew does not intend from the inner side of a vehicle.

  A sliding door device that solves the above problem includes the above-described vehicle operation detection device and the slide door, and the vehicle operation detection device has the first end behind the vehicle rather than the second end. And is attached to the sliding door such that the longitudinal direction is the moving direction of the sliding door, and the distance between the first detection unit and the second detection unit in the longitudinal direction is This is a distance corresponding to the amount of movement when the sliding door moves between the fully open state and the fully closed state.

  According to the slide door device configured as described above, the position of the first detection unit when the slide door is in the fully closed state and the position of the second detection unit when the slide door is in the fully open state are set to the same position. Can be placed. For this reason, it becomes easier for the occupant to perform an operation input for opening and closing the slide door with respect to the vehicle operation detection device.

  According to the above-described vehicle operation detection device, it becomes easy for an occupant to perform an operation input for opening and closing the slide door regardless of the open / closed state of the slide door.

Hereinafter, a vehicle including a vehicle operation detection device (hereinafter also referred to as “detection device”) and a slide door device according to an embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, a door opening 2 a is formed on the side of the body 2 of the vehicle 1. A slide door 3 that opens and closes the door opening 2 a as the vehicle 1 moves in the front-rear direction is mounted on the side of the body 2. The sliding door 3 is moved to the rear of the vehicle 1 to be fully opened to open the door opening 2a, and is moved to the front of the vehicle 1 to be fully closed to close the door opening 2a.

  The slide door 3 has a substantially bag-like door panel 4 constituting the lower portion thereof, and a window glass 5 that advances and retreats in the vertical direction from the door panel 4. The door panel 4 is provided with a door lock 6 for locking and unlocking the slide door 3 in the closed state.

  For example, the door drive unit 11 is installed in the slide door 3 in the door panel 4. The door drive unit 11 is mainly configured by an electric drive source such as an electric motor, and opens and closes the slide door 3 by being mechanically linked to the body 2 through an appropriate door drive mechanism. Thus, in this embodiment, an example of a so-called power slide door device is configured including the door drive unit 11.

  Moreover, the door lock drive part 12 is installed in the slide door 3 adjacent to the door lock 6, for example. The door lock drive unit 12 is mainly configured by an electric drive source such as an electric motor, and is mechanically linked to the door lock 6 through an appropriate lock drive mechanism to drive the door lock 6 to be unlocked / unlocked. To do.

  Both the door drive unit 11 and the door lock drive unit 12 are electrically connected to a door ECU 10 made of, for example, a microcomputer, and are individually driven and controlled by the door ECU 10. The door ECU 10 drives the door driving unit 11 to open the slide door 3 when an opening operation command signal is input from an electronic key (portable machine) and a detection device 20 described later. Further, when a closing operation command signal is input from the electronic key (portable device) and the detection device 20, the door ECU 10 drives the door driving unit 11 to close the slide door 3.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a draining belt molding 8 is attached to the upper end of the door panel 4 so as to be in sliding contact with the outer surface of the window glass 5 that advances and retreats in the vertical direction. A detection device 20 that detects a user's operation input from inside and outside the vehicle 1 is installed above the door panel 4 and inside the vehicle 1 with respect to the window glass 5.

  In the present embodiment, an example of the slide door device 50 is configured including the slide door 3, the door lock 6, the door ECU 10, the door drive unit 11, the door lock drive unit 12, and the detection device 20.

  Next, the detection device 20 will be described with reference to FIGS. In the present embodiment, the operation input to be detected by the detection device 20 includes an operation input performed by a user (occupant) inside the vehicle 1 and an operation input performed by a user outside the vehicle 1.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the detection device 20 includes a first detection unit 21 having a first electrode 31, a second electrode 32, and a first detection circuit 41, a third electrode 33, a fourth electrode 34, and a first electrode. A second detection unit 22 having a second detection circuit 42; and a third detection unit 23 having a fifth electrode 35, a sixth electrode 36, a seventh electrode 37, and a third detection circuit 43. The detection device 20 includes a control circuit 24 connected to the first detection circuit 41, the second detection circuit 42, and the third detection circuit 43, and a housing 26 that houses components of the detection device 20. Yes.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the detection device 20 (housing 26) has a long and substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape. As shown in FIG. 1, the length in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20 (housing 26) is shorter than the length in the front-rear direction of the window glass 5 of the slide door 3. In the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20, the distance between the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 is the amount of movement when the slide door 3 moves between the fully closed state and the fully open state. The distance is according. Specifically, in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20, the distance between the center of the first detection unit 21 and the center of the second detection unit 22 is set between the fully closed state and the fully open state of the slide door 3. What is necessary is just to set it as the movement amount when moving. In the following description, one end of the detection device 20 is referred to as a “first end X1”, and the other end opposite to the first end X1 is referred to as a “second end X2”.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the first detection unit 21 is disposed in the vicinity of the first end X1 in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20, and the second detection unit 22 is the second end X2 in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20. Located in the vicinity. In other words, the first detection unit 21 is arranged at a position closer to the first end X1 than the second end X2 in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20, and the second detection unit 22 is arranged in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20. It is arranged at a position closer to the second end X2 than to the first end X1. The third detection unit 23 is disposed at the center in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20. The first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 are disposed inside the detection device 20, and the third detection unit is disposed outside the detection device 20. In the present embodiment, the first detection unit 21, the second detection unit 22, and the third detection unit 23 constitute a capacitance sensor.

  In the first detection unit 21, the second detection unit 22, and the third detection unit 23, the electrodes 31 to 37 have a substantially rectangular plate shape. The electrodes 31 to 37 are preferably formed in a size according to the user's hand. The first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32 of the first detection unit 21, the third electrode 33 and the fourth electrode 34 of the second detection unit 22, and the fifth electrode 35, the sixth electrode 36 and the seventh of the third detection unit 23. The electrodes 37 are arranged so as to be aligned in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20. The first electrode 31, the second electrode 32, the third electrode 33, and the fourth electrode 34 face the inside of the detection device 20 (the lower side in FIG. 3), and the fifth electrode 35, the sixth electrode 36, and the seventh electrode 37 are It faces the outside of the detection device 20 (upper side in FIG. 3).

  The electrodes 31 to 37 have a higher capacitance as the distance from the detection target is shorter. For example, in the case where the detection target is brought close to the part where the electrodes 31 to 37 of the detection device 20 are provided and the case where the detection target is brought into contact with the same part, the latter case is more effective than the former case. The distance between .about.37 and the detection target is shortened. Therefore, the capacitance of the electrodes 31 to 37 is higher when the detection target is brought into contact with the part where the detection target is brought closer to the part where the electrodes 31 to 37 of the detection device 20 are provided. Become. In the present embodiment, the approach means a state in which the distance between the objects is relatively short but the objects are not in contact with each other.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the first detection circuit 41 outputs an oscillation signal to the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32, thereby generating a signal corresponding to the capacitance of the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32. Output. The second detection circuit 42 outputs an oscillation signal to the third electrode 33 and the fourth electrode 34, thereby outputting a signal corresponding to the capacitance of the third electrode 33 and the fourth electrode 34. The third detection circuit 43 outputs an oscillation signal to the fifth electrode 35, the sixth electrode 36, and the seventh electrode 37, so that the third detection circuit 43 corresponds to the capacitance of the fifth electrode 35, the sixth electrode 36, and the seventh electrode 37. Output the signal. Then, the first detection circuit 41, the second detection circuit 42, and the third detection circuit 43 each output a signal obtained by A / D (analog / digital) conversion of the signal output from the electrodes 31 to 37 to the control circuit 24. .

  The control circuit 24 executes various arithmetic processes based on signals output from the first detection circuit 41, the second detection circuit 42, and the third detection circuit 43, and outputs a control signal corresponding to the result of the arithmetic process to the door ECU 10. Output to. Specifically, the control circuit 24 outputs an opening operation command signal to the door ECU 10 based on the capacitances of the electrodes 31 to 37 of the first detection unit 21, the second detection unit 22, and the third detection unit 23, A closing operation command signal is output to the door ECU 10. In the present embodiment, the control circuit 24 corresponds to an example of a “control unit”.

  And the detection apparatus 20 is arrange | positioned at the slide door 3 so that the inner side of the detection apparatus 20 may become the inner side of the vehicle 1, and the outer side of a detection apparatus may become an outer side. The detection device 20 is disposed on the slide door 3 such that the first end X1 is positioned behind the vehicle 1 relative to the second end X2, and the longitudinal direction X is the moving direction of the slide door 3. In detail, as shown in FIG. 1, the detection apparatus 20 is arrange | positioned at the slide door 3 so that the 2nd end X2 may fit the front end of a window glass. For this reason, in the detection device 20, the first detection unit 21 is disposed at a position near the center of the slide door 3 in the front-rear direction of the vehicle 1, and the second detection unit 22 is disposed at a position near the front end of the slide door 3. Is done.

Next, information detected by the detection device 20 and details of determination based on the information will be described in detail.
As described above, in the detection device 20, the first detection unit 21, the second detection unit 22, and the third detection unit 23 detect an operation input from the user. Thereafter, in the detection device 20, the control circuit 24 determines whether or not there is an opening operation input for opening the slide door 3 based on the detection results of the first detection unit 21 and the third detection unit 23, and the second Based on the detection results of the detection unit 22 and the third detection unit 23, the presence / absence of a closing operation input for closing the slide door 3 is determined. That is, in the present embodiment, the first detection unit 21 is a configuration for detecting an opening operation input, the second detection unit 22 is a configuration for detecting a closing operation input, and the third detection unit 23. Is a configuration for detecting an opening operation input and a closing operation input. In the detection device 20, when the control circuit 24 determines that the opening operation input has been performed, the control circuit 24 outputs an opening operation command signal to the door ECU 10, and when it determines that the closing operation input has been performed, A signal is output to the door ECU 10.

Hereinafter, the opening operation input, the closing operation input, and the determination method of each input will be described in detail.
As indicated by a solid line arrow in FIG. 3, in the first detection unit 21, the opening operation input is performed from the first electrode 31 to the second electrode in a state where the user approaches or contacts the first detection unit 21. This is an operation of moving the hand toward 32. Further, in the third detection unit 23, the opening operation input moves the hand from the fifth electrode 35 toward the seventh electrode 37 in a state where the user approaches or contacts the third detection unit 23. Is the action. The opening operation input is an operation in which the user swipes the hand toward the rear of the vehicle 1 with respect to the first detection unit 21 and the third detection unit 23 (hereinafter also referred to as “rear swipe”). In the present embodiment, the user's hand may be a part of a hand such as a fingertip, a palm, or the back of the hand, or the entire hand.

  Further, as indicated by a broken line arrow in FIG. 3, in the second detection unit 22, the closing operation input is performed from the fourth electrode 34 to the second detection unit 22 with the hand approaching or contacting the second detection unit 22. In this operation, the hand is moved toward the three electrodes 33. Further, in the third detection unit 23, the closing operation input moves the hand from the seventh electrode 37 toward the fifth electrode 35 in a state where the hand is brought close to or in contact with the third detection unit 23. Is the action. The closing operation input is an operation in which the user swipes the hand toward the front of the vehicle 1 with respect to the second detection unit 22 and the third detection unit 23 (hereinafter also referred to as “front swipe”).

  For example, as shown in FIG. 5A, when the user performs a post-swipe on the first detection unit 21, the capacitances C1 and C2 of the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32 increase or decrease in order. That is, at the second time t12 after the first time t11 when the capacitance C1 of the first electrode 31 is equal to or higher than a first determination value Cth1 set in advance, the capacitance C2 of the second electrode 32 is The first determination value Cth1 or more.

  Therefore, the control circuit 24 determines whether the first detection unit 21 has performed a post-swipe on the first detection unit 21 based on the order of the electrodes 31 and 32 whose capacitance is equal to or greater than the first determination value Cth1. Determine whether or not. Specifically, in the first detection unit 21, the control circuit 24 determines that the capacitance of the second electrode 32 is equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 after the capacitance of the first electrode 31 is equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1. When it becomes, it determines with the back swipe having been performed with respect to the 1st detection part 21. FIG.

  Similarly, in the second detection unit 22, the control circuit 24 performs a pre-swipe on the second detection unit 22 based on the order of the electrodes 33 and 34 in which the capacitance is equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1. It is determined whether or not. Specifically, in the second detection unit 22, the control circuit 24 determines that the capacitance of the third electrode 33 is equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 after the capacitance of the fourth electrode 34 is equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1. When it becomes, it determines with the front swipe having been performed with respect to the 2nd detection part 22. FIG.

  The first determination value Cth1 is a determination value set as a lower limit value for determining contact with the detection device 20 (housing 26) of the user's hand as a detection target. For this reason, when an operation input is made to the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 with the user's hand in contact with the detection device 20 (housing 26), the front swipe and the rear swipe are performed. Can be determined. In other words, when an operation input is made to the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 with the user's hand approaching the casing 26, it is not determined that the front swipe and the rear swipe have been performed. It has become.

  As shown in FIG. 5B, when the user performs a post-swipe on the third detection unit 23, the capacitances C5, C6 of the fifth electrode 35, the sixth electrode 36, and the seventh electrode 37 are obtained. C7 increases or decreases in order. That is, at the first time t21, the capacitance C5 of the fifth electrode 35 becomes equal to or higher than the second determination value Cth2 set in advance. Thereafter, at a second time t22 after the first time t21, the capacitance C6 of the sixth electrode 36 becomes equal to or higher than the second determination value Cth2. Then, at a third time t23 after the second time t22, the capacitance C7 of the seventh electrode 37 becomes equal to or higher than the second determination value Cth2.

  Therefore, the control circuit 24 determines whether the third detector 23 has performed a post-swipe on the third detector 23 based on the order of the electrodes 35 to 37 in which the capacitance is equal to or greater than the second determination value Cth2. Determine whether or not. Specifically, in the third detection unit 23, the control circuit 24 switches the electrodes 35 to 37 whose capacitance is equal to or greater than the second determination value Cth2 in the order of the fifth electrode 35, the sixth electrode 36, and the seventh electrode 37. Then, it is determined that the post-swipe is performed on the third detection unit 23. Similarly, in the third detection unit 23, the control circuit 24 switches the electrodes 35 to 37 whose capacitance is equal to or higher than the second determination value Cth2 in the order of the seventh electrode 37, the sixth electrode 36, and the fifth electrode 35. It is determined that the previous swipe is performed on the third detection unit 23.

  The second determination value Cth2 is set to be less than a predetermined determination value as a lower limit value for determining contact with the detection device 20 (housing 26) of the user's hand. That is, the second determination value Cth2 is set to a value smaller than the first determination value Cth1. For this reason, in the third detection unit 23, not only when a user's hand is in contact with the housing 26, but also when an operation input is made to the third detection unit 23, the user's hand is brought close to the housing 26. Even when an operation input is made to the third detection unit 23 in the state, it can be determined that the front swipe and the rear swipe have been performed.

  By the way, in the detection apparatus 20, the 1st detection part 21 and the 2nd detection part 22 are provided in the position near from the user who seats on the seat of the side of the door opening part 2a. In this regard, the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 are easier than the third detection unit 23 to detect an operation input not intended by the user. Specifically, the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 detect an operation input accompanying an erroneous operation of a user sitting on a seat on the side of the door opening 2a, or accompany a user leaning on the slide door 3. Operation input may be detected. In this case, it is preferable that the detection device 20 does not determine that the rear swipe and the front swipe have been performed so as not to output the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal.

  For example, when the user inputs an operation to the first detection unit 21 with the intention of opening the slide door 3, the capacitance of the first electrode 31 is set to the first determination value Cth1 during a certain period. After the above, the capacitance of the second electrode 32 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1. In other words, the period from when the capacitance of the first electrode 31 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 to when the capacitance of the second electrode 32 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 is extremely short. When the period is extremely long, there is a high possibility that the first detection unit 21 has detected an operation input not intended by the user.

  Therefore, in the first detection unit 21, the control circuit 24 performs the first determination period (hereinafter also referred to as “first determination period Tth1”) after the capacitance of the first electrode 31 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1. If the capacitance of the second electrode 32 is equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 before the time elapses, it is not determined that the pre-swipe has been performed. Similarly, in the second detection unit 22, the control circuit 24 detects the third electrode 33 before the first determination period Tth <b> 1 elapses after the capacitance of the fourth electrode 34 exceeds the first determination value Cth <b> 1. When the capacitance is equal to or greater than the first determination value Cth1, it is not determined that the previous swipe has been performed.

  The control circuit 24 is also referred to as a second determination period (hereinafter referred to as “second determination period Tth2”) after the capacitance of the first electrode 31 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 in the first detection unit 21. ), It is not determined that the post-swipe has been performed even if the capacitance of the second electrode 32 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1. Similarly, in the second detection unit 22, after the electrostatic capacity of the fourth electrode 34 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1, the control circuit 24 sets the third electrode 33 after the second determination period Tth2 has elapsed. Even if the capacitance is equal to or greater than the first determination value Cth1, it is not determined that the previous swipe has been performed.

  As shown in FIG. 6, in the detection device 20 attached to the slide door 3, the first detection unit 21 for detecting a rear swipe for opening the slide door 3 from the inside of the vehicle 1 includes a slide It is located behind the front end of the door 3. On the other hand, the second detection unit 22 for detecting a front swipe for closing the slide door 3 from the inside of the vehicle 1 is located closer to the front end of the slide door 3.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6 (a), when the slide door 3 is in the fully closed state, the first detection unit 21 is positioned at the approximate center in the front-rear direction of the door opening 2a, and FIG. As shown, when the slide door 3 is in the fully open state, the second detection unit 22 is positioned at the approximate center in the front-rear direction of the door opening 2a.

  As a result, as shown in FIG. 6A, when the slide door 3 is in a fully closed state, the user inputs an operation to the first detection unit 21 to open the slide door 3 (rear swipe). When it is necessary to perform the first detection unit 21, the first detection unit 21 is disposed at a position that can be reached by a passenger who sits on the side seat of the door opening 2a. Further, as shown in FIG. 6B, this is a case where the slide door 3 is in a fully open state, and the user needs to input an operation (pre-swipe) to the second detection unit 22 in order to close the slide door 3. When there is, the 2nd detection part 22 is arrange | positioned in the position where the passenger | crew who sits in the seat of the side of the door opening part 2a reaches.

  Next, processing executed by the control circuit 24 to output an opening operation command signal based on a detection result of the first detection unit 21 will be described with reference to a flowchart shown in FIG. In addition, this process is a process performed for every predetermined | prescribed control cycle, for example, when the vehicle 1 has stopped.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the control circuit 24 determines whether or not the capacitance C1 of the first electrode 31 of the first detection unit 21 is equal to or greater than the first determination value Cth1 (step S11). When the capacitance C1 of the first electrode 31 is less than the first determination value Cth1 (step S11: NO), the control circuit 24 once ends this process. On the other hand, when the capacitance C1 of the first electrode 31 is equal to or greater than the first determination value Cth1 (step S11: YES), the control circuit 24 has passed the second determination period Tth2 since the determination of step S11 is affirmative. It is determined whether or not (step S12). When the second determination period Tth2 or more has elapsed (step S12: YES), the control circuit 24 once ends this process. In other words, in this case, the electrostatic capacity C2 of the second electrode 32 is less than the first determination value Cth1 and the electrostatic capacity C2 of the second electrode 32 has passed for a while. This is a case where the first determination value Cth1 is not exceeded. For this reason, the control circuit 24 determines that the user has made an unintended operation input to the first detection unit 21.

  In the previous step S12, when the second determination period Tth2 has not elapsed (step S12: NO), the control circuit 24 determines that the capacitance C2 of the second electrode 32 of the first detection unit 21 is the first determination value Cth1. It is determined whether or not this is the case (step S13). When the capacitance C2 of the second electrode 32 is less than the first determination value Cth1 (step S13: NO), the control circuit 24 proceeds to the previous step S12. In this case, the control circuit 24 continues to determine whether or not the capacitance C2 of the second electrode 32 is equal to or greater than the first determination value Cth1 until the second determination period Tth2 elapses.

  When the electrostatic capacitance C2 of the second electrode 32 is greater than or equal to the first determination value Cth1 (step S13: YES), the control circuit 24 waits until the process of step S13 is positively determined after the process of step S11 is positively determined. Next, it is determined whether or not the first determination period Tth1 has elapsed (step S14). When the first determination period Tth1 has not elapsed (step S14: NO), the control circuit 24 once ends this process. That is, in this case, the period from when the capacitance C1 of the first electrode 31 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 to when the capacitance C2 of the second electrode 32 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 is very long. It is a short case. For this reason, the control circuit 24 determines that the user has made an unintended operation input to the first detection unit 21.

  On the other hand, in the previous step S14, when the first determination period Tth1 has elapsed (step S14: YES), the control circuit 24 outputs an opening operation command signal to the door ECU 10 (step S15). This case is also a case where the control circuit 24 determines that the post-swipe is performed on the first detection unit 21. Thereafter, the control circuit 24 once ends this process.

  Next, processing executed by the control circuit 24 to output a closing operation command signal based on the detection result of the second detection unit 22 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. In addition, this process is performed for every predetermined | prescribed control cycle, for example, when the vehicle 1 has stopped.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the control circuit 24 determines whether or not the capacitance C4 of the fourth electrode 34 of the second detection unit 22 is equal to or greater than the first determination value Cth1 (step S21). When the electrostatic capacitance C4 of the fourth electrode 34 is less than the first determination value Cth1 (step S21: NO), the control circuit 24 once ends this process. On the other hand, when the electrostatic capacitance C4 of the fourth electrode 34 is greater than or equal to the first determination value Cth1 (step S21: YES), the control circuit 24 has passed the second determination period Tth2 since the determination of step S21 was affirmative. It is determined whether or not (step S22). When the second determination period Tth2 or more has elapsed (step S22: YES), the control circuit 24 once ends this process. In other words, in this case, the electrostatic capacity C3 of the third electrode 33 is less than the first determination value Cth1 and the electrostatic capacity C3 of the third electrode 33 has passed for a while. This is a case where the first determination value Cth1 is not exceeded. For this reason, the control circuit 24 determines that the user has input an unintended operation to the second detection unit 22.

  In the previous step S22, when the second determination period Tth2 has not elapsed (step S22: NO), the control circuit 24 determines that the capacitance C3 of the third electrode 33 of the second detection unit 22 is the first determination value Cth1. It is determined whether or not this is the case (step S23). When the capacitance C3 of the third electrode 33 is less than the first determination value Cth1 (step S23: NO), the control circuit 24 proceeds to the previous step S22. In this case, the control circuit 24 continues to determine whether or not the capacitance C3 of the third electrode 33 is equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 until the second determination period Tth2 elapses.

  When the capacitance C3 of the third electrode 33 is greater than or equal to the first determination value Cth1 (step S23: YES), the control circuit 24 waits until the process of step S23 is positively determined after the process of step S21 is positively determined. Next, it is determined whether or not the first determination period Tth1 has elapsed (step S24). If the first determination period Tth1 has not elapsed (step S24: NO), the control circuit 24 once ends this process. That is, in this case, the period from when the capacitance C4 of the fourth electrode 34 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 to when the capacitance C3 of the third electrode 33 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 is very long. It is a short case. For this reason, the control circuit 24 determines that the user has input an unintended operation to the second detection unit 22.

  On the other hand, when the first determination period Tth1 has elapsed in the previous step S24 (step S24: YES), the control circuit 24 outputs a closing operation command signal to the door ECU 10 (step S25). This case is also a case where the control circuit 24 determines that a post-swipe has been performed on the second detection unit 22. Thereafter, the control circuit 24 once ends this process.

  Next, processing executed by the control circuit 24 to determine whether or not the user has performed a pre-swipe and a post-swipe via the third detection unit 23 will be described. In addition, since this process has many parts which overlap with the process mentioned above, illustration of a flowchart is simplified and description is simplified.

  The control circuit 24 outputs an opening operation command signal to the door ECU 10 when the electrostatic capacitance is equal to or higher than the second determination value Cth2 in the order of the fifth electrode 35, the sixth electrode 36, and the seventh electrode 37. Moreover, the control circuit 24 outputs a closing operation command signal to the door ECU 10 when the capacitance becomes equal to or greater than the second determination value Cth2 in the order of the seventh electrode 37, the sixth electrode 36, and the fifth electrode 35. On the other hand, in other cases, the control circuit 24 does not output the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal to the door ECU 10.

Next, the effect | action of this embodiment is demonstrated with an effect.
(1) A first detection unit 21 for detecting an opening operation input (rear swipe) is disposed at a position near the first end X1 in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20, and a second in the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20 A second detection unit 22 for detecting a closing operation input (front swipe) is disposed at a position near the end X2. For this reason, the detection device 20 is attached to the slide door 3 so that the first end X1 and the second end X2 of the detection device 20 are on the rear side and the front side of the vehicle 1, respectively. Thus, the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 are arranged as follows.

  That is, as shown in FIG. 6A, when the slide door 3 is in the fully closed state, the first detection unit 21 is disposed at a position behind the front end of the door opening 2a. As shown in FIG. 6B, when the slide door 3 is in a fully open state, the second detection unit 22 is disposed at a position behind the front end of the door opening 2a. Therefore, the distance from the user seated on the side seat of the door opening 2a to the first detection unit 21 when the slide door 3 is in the fully closed state, and when the slide door 3 is in the fully open state from the user. Both the distance to the second detection unit 22 tend to be short. That is, the 1st detection part 21 and the 2nd detection part 22 are arrange | positioned in the position where the passenger | crew seated in the seat of the side of the door opening part 2a is easy to operate. In this way, the user can easily perform an operation for opening and closing the slide door 3 with respect to the detection device 20 regardless of the open / closed state of the slide door 3.

  (2) The first detector 21 and the second detector 22 are capacitive sensors. For this reason, the user can input an operation by bringing a hand close to the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 or bringing a hand into contact with the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22. it can. In other words, the user can input an operation without pulling or turning the inside door handle, for example. In this way, it is possible to reduce a burden when the user performs an operation input.

  (3) For example, when the distance between the user sitting on the seat and the detection device 20 provided on the slide door 3 is short, the body of the user is the electrodes 31 to 34 of the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22. There is a possibility of approaching. In this case, the control circuit 24 may output an opening operation command signal and a closing operation command signal based on an operation input not intended by the user.

  In this regard, according to the above-described embodiment, on the condition that the capacitance of the electrodes 31 to 34 is equal to or greater than the lower limit (first determination value Cth1) for determining contact with the detection device 20 of the user's hand. The control circuit 24 outputs an opening operation command signal and a closing operation command signal. In other words, the control circuit 24 outputs the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal on condition that the user performs an operation input with the hand in contact with the detection device 20. As a result, the sliding door 3 is prevented from being opened and closed based on an operation input not intended by the user.

  (4) For example, when a user sitting on a seat leans on the slide door 3, a part of the user's body may approach the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22. In this case, the control circuit 24 may output an opening operation command signal and a closing operation command signal based on an operation input not intended by the user. However, in this case, a part of the user's body approaches the plurality of electrodes 31 to 34 constituting the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 at the same time. Capacity tends to increase at the same time.

  Therefore, in the above-described embodiment, when the electrodes 31 to 34 whose capacitance is increased are switched in a specific order in the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22, the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal are output. Is done. For this reason, it is further suppressed that the slide door 3 is opened and closed based on an operation input not intended by the user.

  (5) The control circuit 24 outputs an opening operation command signal to the door ECU 10 when the rear swipe is performed on the first detection unit 21, and the front swipe is performed on the second detection unit 22. Sometimes, a closing operation command signal is output to the door ECU 10. For this reason, opening / closing operation | movement of the slide door 3 by the operation input which a user does not intend is suppressed, suppressing complication of operation input.

  (6) The detection device 20 includes a first detection unit 21 and a second detection unit 22 that detect an operation input from the inside of the vehicle 1, a third detection unit 23 that detects an operation input from the outside of the vehicle 1, Is provided. For this reason, the slide door 3 can be opened and closed by one detection device 20 based on operation inputs from the inside and outside of the vehicle 1.

  (7) When the user is seated on the side seat of the slide door 3, the user is present in the vicinity of the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22. There are many opportunities to increase the capacitance of the electrodes 31 to 34 of the portion 22. That is, the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 are easier to detect an operation input not intended by the user than the third detection unit 23.

  Therefore, in the above embodiment, whether or not the control circuit 24 outputs the opening operation command signal and the closing operation command signal based on the detection results of the first detection unit 21, the second detection unit 22, and the third detection unit 23. A difference is made in the judgment value used for the determination. Specifically, the first determination value Cth1 is set larger than the second determination value Cth2. For this reason, it can suppress that the opening / closing operation | movement of the sliding door 3 is performed based on the operation input which the user does not intend from the inside of the vehicle 1. FIG.

  (8) In the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20, the distance between the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 is the amount of movement when the slide door 3 moves between the fully closed state and the fully open state. The distance was about the same. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, the second detection unit 22 when the sliding door 3 is in the fully open state and the slide, with reference to a user sitting on the side of the door opening 2a. The first detector 21 when the door 3 is in the fully closed state can be disposed at substantially the same position. As a result, it becomes easier for the occupant to perform an operation input for opening and closing the slide door 3 with respect to the detection device 20.

  (9) The period from when the capacitance of the first electrode 31 of the first detection unit 21 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 to when the capacitance of the second electrode 32 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 is extremely long. The control circuit 24 does not output an opening operation command signal when the period is too short or when the period of synchronization is extremely long. Similarly, the period from when the capacitance of the fourth electrode 34 of the second detection unit 22 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 to when the capacitance of the third electrode 33 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1 is extremely long. If it is short or extremely long, the control circuit 24 does not output an opening operation command signal. For this reason, it can further suppress that the opening / closing operation | movement of the slide door 3 is performed based on the operation input which the user does not intend from the inside of the vehicle 1. FIG.

In addition, you may change the said embodiment as shown below.
The control circuit 24 may output a closing operation command signal to the door ECU 10 when it is determined that the front swipe is performed on the first detection unit 21. The control circuit 24 may output an opening operation command signal to the door ECU 10 when it is determined that the rear swipe is performed on the second detection unit 22.

  -The number of the electrodes which comprise the 1st detection part 21 and the 2nd detection part 22 may be one. In this case, the control circuit 24, when the capacitance of one electrode constituting the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 becomes equal to or higher than the first determination value Cth1, It is preferable to output an operation command signal to the door ECU 10.

  The number of electrodes constituting the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 may be three or more. In this case, it is preferable that the control circuit 24 outputs an opening operation command signal and a closing operation command signal to the door ECU 10 when an operation input is performed to trace the electrodes in a specific order.

The first determination value Cth1 and the second determination value Cth2 may be changed as appropriate. For example, the first determination value Cth1 may be equal to the second determination value Cth2.
The control circuit 24 performs a pre-swipe and a post-swipe based on the order of the times when the capacitances of the electrodes 31 to 37 of the first detection unit 21, the second detection unit 22, and the third detection unit 23 reach the peak values. It may be determined whether or not has been performed. In addition, the control circuit 24 determines that the capacitances of the electrodes 31 to 37 of the first detector 21, the second detector 22, and the third detector 23 are less than a predetermined determination value (for example, the first determination value Cth1). Based on the order of the times, it may be determined whether a pre-swipe and a post-swipe have been performed. As described above, the control circuit 24 performs the front swipe and the rear swipe based on the order in which the capacitances of the electrodes 31 to 37 of the first detector 21, the second detector 22, and the third detector 23 change. It may be determined whether or not it has been broken.

When the door lock 6 is locked, the door ECU 10 does not need to open the slide door 3 even when the opening operation command signal is input from the control circuit 24.
The door ECU 10 may unlock the door lock 6 before the opening operation of the slide door 3 based on the opening operation command signal from the control circuit 24. Further, the door ECU 10 may lock the door lock 6 after the sliding door 3 is closed based on the closing operation command signal from the control circuit 24.

  When a specific operation input is made to the first detection unit 21, the second detection unit 22, and the third detection unit 23 during the opening / closing operation of the slide door 3, the control circuit 24 stops the slide door 3. You may let them. The specific operation input may be an operation in which the user brings his / her hand close to any of the electrodes 31 to 37 of the first detection unit 21, the second detection unit 22, and the third detection unit 23.

  The detection device 20 may further include a fourth detection unit that detects an operation input for stopping the slide door 3 during the opening / closing operation of the slide door 3. In this case, the fourth detection unit is preferably arranged between the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22.

  The first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 may be so-called push switches, or may be optical sensors, ultrasonic sensors, thermal sensors, and the like. Even in this case, the effect (1) of the above embodiment can be obtained.

The detection device 20 may not include the third detection unit 23.
-The attachment position with respect to the slide door 3 of the detection apparatus 20 may be on the door trim which forms the design of a vehicle interior, and the window frame which supports the window glass 5 may be sufficient as it.

  In the longitudinal direction X of the detection device 20, the distance between the first detection unit 21 and the second detection unit 22 depends on the amount of movement when the slide door 3 moves between the fully closed state and the fully open state. And may be changed as appropriate within a range not greatly deviating from the amount of movement. However, in this case, the position of the first detector 21 when the slide door 3 is in the fully closed state and the position of the second detector 22 when the slide door 3 is in the fully open state are the same as those of the slide door 3. It is preferable that the occupant seated in the side seat is within a range where operation input can be performed without changing the posture.

  -The detection apparatus 20 does not need to be provided with the housing | casing 26 which accommodates the structural member of the detection apparatus 20. FIG. In this case, the first determination value Cth1 is based on the first detection unit 21 (first electrode 31 and second electrode 32) and the second detection unit 22 (third electrode 34 and fourth electrode 34) as a detection target. It is preferable to set a determination value that is set in advance as a lower limit value for determining contact with respect to the contact.
