Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle air conditioning control device.

  As an air conditioner mounted on a vehicle, an air conditioner for vehicle compartment that generates conditioned air and blows it into the passenger compartment is common. In the automatic mode, the passenger compartment air conditioner automatically controls the temperature of the conditioned air, the amount of air, and the outlet of the conditioned air based on the target temperature set by the passenger. In Patent Document 1, the temperature of the air-conditioning wind for the driver's seat is changed and controlled according to the amount of solar radiation at the driver's seat, and the temperature of the air-conditioned air for the passenger seat is changed according to the amount of solar radiation at the passenger's seat. What is controlled is disclosed.

  On the other hand, recently, as shown in Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 3, it is increasing that a seat air conditioner that circulates the air in the passenger compartment is provided in the seat. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. H10-228667 discloses a vehicle in which air in the passenger compartment is circulated in the seat using a blower provided in the seat.

  By the way, the occupant is quite insensitive about the amount of solar radiation, and it is difficult to notice a slight difference in the amount of solar radiation between the driver's seat and the passenger seat. For this reason, when the air conditioning level at the driver's seat and the air conditioning level at the passenger seat are individually changed and controlled according to the amount of solar radiation, the solar radiation amount at the driver's seat and the solar radiation amount at the passenger seat are the same for the passenger. The air conditioning level at the driver's seat and the air conditioning level at the passenger's seat are related to the difference between the solar radiation amount at the driver's seat detected by the sensor and the solar radiation amount at the passenger seat. When one of the above is changed, the passenger is likely to feel uncomfortable. Such a sense of incongruity becomes prominent when the target temperature in the driver seat and the target temperature in the passenger seat are set to be the same.

  In addition to the above, since the occupant is sensitive to sound, it becomes sensitive to changes in the operating level of the air-conditioning blower. For this reason, especially when the air conditioner for seat that circulates the air in the vehicle interior in the seat by the blower arranged in the seat is provided separately for the driver seat and the passenger seat, the blower exists near the passenger. When the operating level of one of the blowers is changed due to a slight difference in the amount of solar radiation between the driver seat and the passenger seat, the above-mentioned uncomfortable feeling is likely to be felt.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to make the passenger feel uncomfortable when individually setting the air conditioning level in driving and the air conditioning level in the passenger seat according to the amount of solar radiation. It is an object to provide a vehicle air-conditioning control apparatus that can prevent or suppress the feeling of the above.

In order to achieve the above object, the following solution is adopted in the present invention. That is, as described in claim 1,
An air conditioner capable of individually changing the air conditioning level at the driver's seat and the air conditioning level at the passenger seat;
A solar radiation amount detecting means for individually detecting the solar radiation amount at the driver's seat and the solar radiation amount at the passenger seat, and controlling the air conditioner according to the solar radiation amount at the driver's seat detected by the solar radiation amount detecting means. Control means for controlling the air conditioning level at the driver's seat and controlling the air conditioning level at the passenger seat according to the amount of solar radiation at the passenger seat detected by the solar radiation amount detecting means;
With
The control means makes the air conditioning level at the driver seat different from the air conditioning level at the passenger seat between the solar radiation amount at the driver seat detected by the solar radiation amount detecting means and the solar radiation amount at the passenger seat. If the difference between the amount of solar radiation in the driver's seat and the amount of solar radiation in the front passenger seat is less than the preset value, the air conditioning level in the driver's seat and the passenger seat Perform equal control to control the air conditioning level to be equal to each other.
It is like that.

  According to the above solution, the amount of solar radiation is usually different depending on the difference between the amount of solar radiation on the driver's seat and the passenger seat, and the air conditioning level on the driver's seat is different from that on the passenger seat. It is possible to obtain an appropriate air conditioning state according to the condition. In addition, when the difference in solar radiation between the driver's seat and the passenger seat is less than the prescribed value, that is, when the difference is in the amount of solar radiation that is difficult for the passenger to notice, the air conditioning level in the driver's seat and the passenger seat By setting the air conditioning level to the same level, it is possible to prevent or suppress the passenger from feeling uncomfortable.

A preferred mode based on the above solution is as described in claim 2 and the following. That is,
It further comprises target temperature setting means for individually setting the target temperature in the driver seat and the target temperature in the passenger seat,
The control means performs the equalization control on condition that the target temperature in the driver's seat set by the target temperature setting means and the target temperature in the passenger seat are the same.
(Corresponding to claim 2). In this case, when the target temperature is the same on the driver's side and the passenger's side, the occupant tends to feel uncomfortable with the difference in the air conditioning level between the driver's side and the passenger's side. The equalization control is sometimes performed, and the effect corresponding to claim 1 can be sufficiently obtained.

The air conditioner is disposed in the driver's seat and circulates the passenger's seat air in the driver's seat, and the driver's seat blower is disposed in the passenger's seat and supplies the passenger's seat air in the passenger seat. With a passenger seat blower to circulate,
The control means is configured to individually control operation levels of the driver seat blower and the passenger seat blower, and when performing the equalization control, the driver seat blower, the passenger seat blower, Control the operating levels of the two to be equal to each other,
(Corresponding to claim 3). In this case, since the occupant is sensitive to sound and because the blower is close to the occupant and it is easy to worry about the operation sound of the blower, the operation level of the driver and front passenger blowers is controlled by equal control. By making them equal, it is possible to sufficiently prevent or suppress a sense of incongruity.

  The control means controls the operating level of the driver seat blower and the passenger seat blower to be higher as the amount of solar radiation increases during cooling. The operation level of the vehicle blower is controlled to be equal to the operation level of the passenger seat blower (corresponding to claim 4). In this case, it is possible to prevent or suppress the passenger's uncomfortable feeling during cooling.

The air conditioner includes a driver seat heater disposed in the driver seat, and a passenger seat heater disposed in the passenger seat,
The control means controls the operating level of the driver seat heater and the passenger seat heater so that the operating level of the driver seat heater and the passenger seat heater decreases as the amount of solar radiation increases during heating. Control so that the operating level of the driver seat heater is equal to the operating level of the passenger seat heater;
(Corresponding to claim 5). In this case, it is possible to prevent or suppress the occupant's uncomfortable feeling during heating.

  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, when setting the air conditioning level in a driving | operation and the air conditioning level in a passenger seat separately according to the amount of solar radiation, it can prevent or suppress that a passenger | crew feels uncomfortable.

  In FIG. 1, P is an air conditioning operation panel. The air conditioning operation panel P is provided, for example, at a substantially intermediate portion in the vehicle width direction of the instrument panel, and can be operated by a driver seat passenger and a passenger seat passenger.

  The air conditioning operation panel P is provided with various switches and display units, which will be described below. First, reference numeral 1 denotes a main switch. By operating a push-push type switch unit 1a at the center of the main switch, a passenger compartment air conditioner S11 (see FIG. 5) and a seat air conditioner 20 (see FIG. 2). Switch between on and off. In the state immediately after the main switch 1 is turned on, the passenger compartment air conditioner S11 and the seat air conditioner 20 are basically operated in the automatic mode. In FIG. 5, in order to distinguish the seat air conditioner 20 for the driver's seat and the passenger's seat, the seat air-conditioner 20 is identified using the symbols S12 and S13.

  The switch 1 is also used for air volume setting, and the air volume is manually set by rotating the rotary operation unit 1b set around the switch 1.

  In the air conditioner S11 for the passenger compartment, the air conditioning control can be individually performed for the driver seat and the passenger seat in the embodiment. That is, the switch 2 is for setting a target temperature for the driver's seat, and the set target temperature is displayed on the display unit 3. The switch 4 is for setting a target temperature for the passenger seat, and the set target temperature is displayed on the display unit 5.

  In the automatic mode, the vehicle interior air conditioner S11 adjusts the temperature and air volume of the conditioned air according to the difference between the actual temperature in the vehicle interior and the set target temperature, and adjusts the conditioned air flow. However, the air is blown out from the predetermined air outlet into the vehicle interior. When the air volume is manually set by the switch unit 1b, the control items other than the air volume are controlled in the automatic mode.

  The switch 6 is, for example, a push-push type, and is for turning on and off a seat air conditioner 20 (corresponding to reference sign S12 in FIG. 5) equipped for a driver's seat. When the switch 6 is turned on, the seat air conditioner 20 is forcibly operated even in the automatic mode. When the switch 6 is turned off, the operation of the seat air conditioner 20 is forcibly stopped even in the automatic mode. By rotating the switch 7, the air volume of the seat air conditioner 20 is manually set in preference to the air volume set in the automatic mode.

  The switch 8 is for turning on and off the seat air conditioner 20 (corresponding to S13 in FIG. 5) equipped for the passenger seat, and the switch 9 is for manually setting the air volume in the seat air conditioner 20. Since the switch 8 corresponds to the switch 6 and the switch 9 corresponds to the switch 7, the duplicate description thereof is omitted.

  The air conditioning operation panel P is further provided with a switch for switching between outside air intake and inside air circulation, a switch for operating the defroster, a switch for changing the outlet of the conditioned air, and the like. It is omitted because it is not directly related to.

  FIG. 2 shows an example of the seat air conditioner 20, which has substantially the same structure for the driver seat and the passenger seat. First, reference numeral 10 denotes a seat back frame. The frame 10 includes an upper frame 11 made of a pipe material and a lower frame 12 made of a press material. A lower portion of the lower frame 12 is swingably connected to the seat cushion frame.

  A pair of left and right pipe-shaped attachment portions 13 are fixed to the upper portion of the upper frame 11, and the attachment leg portions 14 a of the headrest 14 are inserted and held in the attachment portions 13.

  A vehicle compartment air conditioner 20 is attached to the upper frame 11 via a bracket 30. Specifically, the seat air conditioner 20 is formed at a blower 21 fixed to the bracket 30, a connecting cylinder part 22 extending downward from the blower 21, and a lower end part of the connecting cylinder part 22, and opening forward. The intake / exhaust port 23 is provided. In the embodiment, the vehicle interior air is sucked by the blower 21, and the sucked vehicle interior air is discharged from the intake / exhaust port 23.

  The seat air conditioner 20 is entirely covered with a cushion material for seat back, but at least a portion covering the suction port and the suction / exhaust port 23 of the blower 21 is set to have air permeability. . By operating the blower 21, seat air conditioning is performed in which the passenger compartment air is circulated in the seat. Note that the blower 21 may be a discharge type instead of suction.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of air volume setting in the seat air conditioner 20. The air volume is set with Δθ that is a value obtained by subtracting the target temperature from the actual temperature in the passenger compartment as a parameter, and the air volume increases as Δθ increases. Note that FIG. 3 is based on the assumption of cooling. The air volume can be changed in a plurality of stages (in the embodiment, five stages).

  4 and 5 show examples in which the air volume in the seat air conditioner 20 is corrected in accordance with the amount of solar radiation. FIG. 4 shows the driver seat and FIG. 5 shows the passenger seat. 4 and 5, the correction amount corresponding to the amount of solar radiation is set to be the same, and as the amount of solar radiation increases (increases), the air volume is increased in stages (in the embodiment, three levels). correction). A sensor for detecting the amount of solar radiation at the driver's seat is indicated by reference numeral S6 in FIG. A sensor for detecting the amount of solar radiation at the passenger seat is indicated by reference numeral S7 in the figure. For example, the sensors S6 and S7 are installed as one sensor and are disposed at a substantially central portion in the vehicle width direction on the upper surface of the instrument panel, or are installed at a high place in the substantially central portion in the vehicle width direction. It can be arranged in front of the rearview mirror.

  In FIG. 4 for the driver's seat, the current solar radiation amount detected by the sensor S6 is indicated by L1, and the correction level (increase level) of the air volume at this time has two stages (the basic level set in FIG. 3). Correction to increase the air flow level by two levels). On the other hand, in FIG. 5 for the passenger seat, the current solar radiation amount detected by the sensor S7 is indicated by R1, and the correction level (increase level) of the air volume at this time has three stages (set in FIG. 3). Correction to increase the basic air flow level by 3 levels).

  The difference between the solar radiation amounts L1 and R1 is slight (difference in which the absolute value of the difference between L1 and R1 is less than a predetermined value set in advance). It will be in the state which recognizes that the amount of solar radiation in a seat is the same. Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, when the target temperature in the driver's seat and the target temperature in the front passenger seat are set to be equal to each other (the target temperature is 24.0 ° C. in FIG. 1), the air conditioning is performed. In a state where the control is stable, if the correction level of the airflow level corresponding to the difference between the solar radiation amounts L1 and R1 is different between the driver seat and the passenger seat, the passenger feels uncomfortable.

In order to prevent or suppress the above uncomfortable feeling, in the present invention, when the difference between the amount of solar radiation in the driver's seat and the amount of solar radiation in the front passenger seat is less than a predetermined value set in advance, the correction level according to the amount of solar radiation However, the same control is performed in the driver seat and the passenger seat. 4 and 5, the predetermined value is set to a value smaller than the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the amount of solar radiation within the range where the same correction stage is set. For example, when the maximum value of the amount of solar radiation when performing the correction in the first stage is α and the minimum value is β, the predetermined value is set to a value smaller than the value of “α−β”.

  In the case of the above equalization control, the driver seat priority can be performed by matching the correction level at the passenger seat with the correction level at the driver seat. Conversely, the passenger seat priority can also be set by matching the correction level at the driver seat with the correction level at the passenger seat. Further, as a compromise method, the correction level between the driver's seat and the passenger seat can be determined using the average value of the solar radiation sensors L and R.

  FIG. 6 shows an example of a control system of the present invention. In the figure, U is a controller (control unit) configured using a microcomputer. Signals from various switches or sensors S1 to S7 are input to the controller U. That is, the sensors S1 and S2 detect a set temperature (target indoor temperature) on the driver's seat side and the passenger seat side. In the embodiment, S1 detects an operation state of the switch 2, and S2 The operation status of the switch 4 is detected.

  Further, a signal from the temperature sensor S3 that detects the passenger compartment temperature on the driver's seat side and a signal from the temperature sensor S4 that detects the passenger compartment temperature on the passenger seat side are input. These temperature sensors S3 and S4 are appropriately provided, for example, on the left and right sides of the console box, or by detecting the temperature at the predetermined position on the driver's seat and the temperature at the predetermined position on the passenger's seat with an infrared sensor. You can choose. Further, at least a signal from the seat belt sensor S5 on the passenger seat side is input to the controller U (detection of whether there is an occupant in the passenger seat). As described above, the sensors S6 and S7 are solar radiation amount sensors that individually detect the solar radiation amounts on the driver seat side and the passenger seat side.

  The controller U controls the cabin air conditioner S11 and the seat air conditioner 20 (in FIG. 6, the driver seat is shown as S12 and the passenger seat is shown as S13). Further, the controller U controls the seat heater S14 for the driver's seat and the seat heater S15 for the passenger seat for control during heating. Each seat heater S14, S15 can be constituted by, for example, an electric heating element disposed in at least one of a seat cushion and a seat back.

  Next, the control contents of the controller U will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. FIG. 6 shows a control example in an automatic mode during cooling (at least an automatic mode in which air volume control in the seat air conditioner 20 is automatically controlled), and the seat heaters S14 and S15 are not operated. Yes. In the following description, Q indicates a step.

  First, in Q1, signals from various sensors S1 to S7 are input. Thereafter, in Q2, it is determined whether or not the current vehicle interior temperature is greater than the set target temperature (determination of whether Δθ in FIG. 3 is greater than 0). If the determination in Q2 is NO, it is assumed that cooling (especially the operation of the seat air conditioner 20) is unnecessary, and the process returns as it is.

  If the determination in Q2 is YES, in Q3, Δθ, which is the difference between the room temperature and the target temperature, is collated with the map shown in FIG. 3, and the basic operating level of the seat air conditioner 20 (in the blower 21) ( Primary operating level) is set.

  After Q3, at Q4, it is determined whether or not the absolute value of the difference between the solar radiation amount L at the driver's seat and the solar radiation amount R at the passenger seat is smaller than a predetermined value. If the determination in Q4 is NO, the blower 21 for the driver's seat and the blower 21 for the passenger seat are individually controlled in Q5. That is, on the driver's seat side, the corrected operation level selected according to the solar radiation amount L at the driver's seat is added to the basic operation level set in Q3. Similarly, on the passenger seat side, the corrected operation level selected according to the amount of solar radiation R at the passenger seat is added to the basic operation level set in Q3.

  As described above, in the processing in Q5, the correction level on the driver's seat side and the correction level on the passenger seat side according to the amount of solar radiation are different. Since it is recognized that the amount of solar radiation is greatly different, there is no sense of incongruity about the difference in the correction level (the difference in the operating sound of the blower 21 between the driver seat and the passenger seat).

  If YES in Q4, it is determined in FIG. 6 whether the target temperature set for the driver's seat and the target temperature set for the passenger's seat are the same. If the determination in Q6 is NO, it is determined that the passenger does not feel a sense of discomfort even if the driver seat side and the passenger seat side have different operation levels, and the process proceeds to Q5.

  If the determination in Q6 is YES, the process proceeds to Q7 and equal control is executed. That is, when the operation level of the blower 21 is corrected according to the amount of solar radiation, control is performed so that the correction level is the same on the driver seat side and the passenger seat side. In this embodiment, in the embodiment, the driver seat priority and the passenger seat side common correction are performed with the correction level corresponding to the solar radiation amount L in the driver seat as the driver seat priority.

  8 to 10 show a second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the premise that the seat heaters S14 and S15 are individually controlled during heating. First, FIG. 8 shows an example in which the basic value of the operation level of the seat heaters S14 and S15 is set. FIG. 8 corresponds to FIG. 3, and the greater the value Δθ2 obtained by subtracting the actual vehicle interior temperature from the set target temperature, the more the operation levels (heating levels) of the seat heaters S14 and S15 are multiple times. It is enlarged by.

  FIG. 9 shows a setting example of correction values for correcting the operation levels of the seat heaters S14 and S15 according to the amount of solar radiation, and corresponds to FIG. 4 or FIG. Since the passenger feels warmer as the amount of solar radiation increases, the operating level of the seat heaters S14 and S15 is set to decrease (minus). That is, the greater the amount of solar radiation, the more the correction is made so that the operating level of the seat heaters S14 and S15 decreases. The basic operation level shown in FIG. 8 and the correction level shown in FIG. 9 are individually controlled by the seat heater S14 for the driver seat and the seat heater S15 for the passenger seat.

  FIG. 10 shows an example of control during heating, and the seat air conditioner 20 (S12, S13) is suspended. Since FIG. 10 corresponds to FIG. 7, only portions different from FIG. 7 will be described. Further, the control example in FIG. 10 is based on the case of an automatic mode in which the seat heaters S14 and S15 are automatically controlled. In order to manually operate the seat heaters S14 and S15, a separate operation switch is provided on the air conditioning operation panel P, and the seat heaters S14 and S15 are individually turned on and off, or the operation levels thereof are individually set manually. (When set manually, the control is given priority over the automatic mode).

  First, in Q12 (corresponding to Q2 in FIG. 7), since it is during heating, it is determined whether or not the room temperature is lower than the target temperature.

  In Q13, the operation levels of the seat heaters S14 and S15 are individually set according to the map of FIG. In Q15 and Q17, the correction direction of the operation level of the seat heaters S14 and S15 according to the amount of solar radiation is a negative direction.

  The seat air conditioner 20 (S12, S13) can also be operated during heating. In this case, for example, for the driver's seat, the operating level of the seat air conditioner 20 (S12) can be set to be the same as the operating level of the driver's seat heater S14. Similarly, for the passenger seat, the operating level of the seat air conditioner 20 (S13) can be set to be the same as the operating level of the passenger seat seat heater S15. By operating the seat air conditioner 20 even during heating, the heat generation effect of the seat heaters S14 and S15 is widely distributed over the entire seat, which is preferable in warming the seat as a whole.
