るものである。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automatic lap time measuring mechanism, and more particularly, to a vehicle body such as a vehicle speed (speed), a revolution number (revolution), an accelerator opening (throttle), and a strain of each part of the vehicle body. The present invention relates to an automatic measuring mechanism for measuring a time (lap time) required for a test vehicle performing a running test with a vehicle information measuring device (data logger) for measuring and collecting information (data) to make a round of a revolving course.

た。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a lap time of this kind is measured from a time difference caused by a human being pressing a switch by eye when a test vehicle passes in front of the vehicle, or an infrared light emitting unit is attached to the vehicle side to receive light. The lap time was measured by setting the part on a track course and taking the difference in the light receiving time.

いて周回毎のデータ収集に要した時間が記録されていて
も、ラップ毎に得られる受光時間が記録されていないか
ら、ラップタイムと車両のデータとの同期がずれてしま
うおそれがある。However, in the former method, it is difficult to measure the lap time with high accuracy due to a large measurement error. In the latter method using infrared light, the accuracy of the lap time is improved compared to the former method, and there is no problem. However, since the light emitting unit and the data logger are mounted and there is no input / output relationship, FIG. Thus, in the data logger, the vehicle speed, the number of revolutions, the throttle, and the distortion of each part of the vehicle body are monitored together with the time required for collecting the monitored data for each revolution (for example, 1538 seconds or 1587.3 seconds).
Although it can be obtained, from the obtained data, for example, the vehicle speed near the hairpin (HAIR PIN) on the tenth lap,
When it is desired to investigate the state of the vehicle such as the number of revolutions, it is difficult to determine even the number of laps as the number of laps increases. In short, even if the light emitting unit and the data logger are mounted on the vehicle and the time required for data collection for each lap is recorded, the light receiving time obtained for each lap is not recorded, so the lap time and the vehicle data Synchronization may be lost.
