Description

  The present invention relates to a power window control device or the like that is mounted on a vehicle such as an automobile and that opens and closes the window of the vehicle by operating a switch.

  Conventionally, in order to operate a window provided in each of a plurality of doors of a vehicle, a switch is provided in the vicinity of a seat in a vehicle interior such as a driver seat, a passenger seat, a rear right seat, a rear left seat, etc. Each of the switches can output a close command and an open command, and a window corresponding to the switch is closed or opened according to an instruction from the switch that outputs either the close command or the open command. For example, the switch on the driver's seat side opens and closes the window (driver's seat window) on the driver's seat side, and the window (other seats) on the side other than the driver's seat (for example, passenger seat, rear left seat, rear right seat, etc.) Window) can be opened and closed. Further, one switch on the other seat side can open and close only one window (other seat window) corresponding to the one switch.

  Furthermore, the switch on the driver's seat side can also lock (invalidate) the switch on the other seat side, and when the switch on the other seat side is locked, even if the switch to be locked is operated, it corresponds to that switch The window on the other seat side cannot be opened or closed. Thereby, unnecessary opening and closing of the window on the other seat side caused by an erroneous operation of the switch on the other seat side by an occupant such as an infant seated in the other seat can be prevented.

  For example, FIG. 2 of Patent Document 1 discloses a driver's seat opening / closing switch 100 as a driver's seat side switch. The driver's seat opening / closing switch 100 includes a switch 100a for opening / closing a driver's seat side window and another seat (an assistant). Switches 100b, 100c, 100d for opening and closing the windows on the seat, rear left seat and rear right seat) side, and a power window lock switch 110 for locking the switches on the other seat side. FIG. 2 of Patent Document 1 discloses an individual opening / closing switch 200 that opens and closes only one window on the rear right seat side, for example.

  Further, FIG. 2 of Patent Document 1 discloses a relay 300. When the command for the rear right seat side window from the driver side switch 100d is different from the command for the rear right seat side window from the rear right seat switch 200, the relay 300 is By giving priority to the opening command from one of the switch 100d and the switch 200 over the closing command from the other of the switch 100d and the switch 200 and outputting the opening command to the motor 400, for example, the rear right seat side window and the sash Prevents a part of the body from being sandwiched between them.

JP-A-60-212582

  However, in the state where the power window lock switch 110 disclosed in FIG. 2 of Patent Document 1 is turned on, the switch 100d on the driver's seat side can operate the window on the rear right seat (other seat) side, for example. On the other hand, the switch 200 on the rear right seat (other seat) side to be locked cannot operate the window on the rear right seat (other seat) side. Therefore, for example, an operation by a passenger sitting in the rear right seat cannot resist an operation by a driver sitting in the driver seat.

  One object of the present invention is to provide a power window control device capable of stopping the operation of the window on the other seat side by the driver against the intention of the occupant seated in the other seat while the lock switch is turned on. That is. Other objects of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art by referring to the aspects and preferred embodiments exemplified below and the accompanying drawings.

  In the following, in order to easily understand the outline of the present invention, embodiments according to the present invention will be exemplified.

A first aspect according to the present invention is a first switch on the side of a seat other than the driver's seat that can output a close command and an open command to a vehicle window;
A second switch on the driver's seat side that can output a closing command and an opening command to the window;
A third switch capable of invalidating the closing command and the opening command to the window from the first switch;
With
When at least one of the closing command and the opening command to the window from the second switch is output, the third switch is configured to output the closing command and the opening command to the window from the first switch. Even if both of the above are invalidated, the first switch may be at least one of the closing command or the opening command to the window from the first switch, and from the second switch. The power window control device is characterized in that the at least one of the closing command and the opening command to the window can be invalidated.

  According to the first aspect, when the lock switch (third switch) is on, the switch on the other seat side (first switch) cannot open or close the window on the other seat (vehicle window). However, when the switch on the driver's seat (second switch) is opening and closing the window (vehicle window) on the other seat, if the switch on the other seat (first switch) is operated, The operation of the (second switch) can be stopped. Therefore, even when the lock switch is turned on, the first switch is operated when the window on the other seat side is operated from the second switch against the intention of the occupant seated in the other seat. Thus, the operation of the window can be stopped by invalidating the second switch.

  Here, while operating the window on the other seat side from the first switch, the window on the other seat side cannot be opened / closed from the first switch due to the restriction of the third switch.

  Thus, according to the first aspect, it is possible to ensure the superiority of the operation of the second switch as long as the operation of the second switch does not contradict the intention of the occupant seated in the other seat. On the other hand, when the operation of the second switch is contrary to the intention of the occupant seated in the other seat, the occupant seated in the other seat operates the first switch, so that the second switch against the intention of the occupant seated in the other seat The operation of the window can be stopped, and the convenience of the first switch can be improved.

In a second aspect according to the present invention, in the first aspect,

  According to the fifth aspect, the fourth switch can be provided on the predetermined current path, and the operation of the second switch can be interrupted. Here, the predetermined current path is only the drive of the motor in the drive unit that can move the first current path or the window due to at least one of the closing command and the opening command to the window from the second switch. It can be set to either one of the induced second current paths. In addition, by operating the fourth switch provided on either the first current path or the second current path in conjunction with the first switch, the fourth switch can be operated by one operation on the first switch. Can do. Thereby, the operation of the window on the other seat side can be stopped from the second switch against the intention of the occupant seated in the other seat by blocking the operation of the second switch.

In a sixth aspect according to the present invention, in the fifth aspect,
The fourth switch may be provided on the first current path.

  According to the sixth aspect, the fourth switch is provided on the first current path resulting from at least one of the closing command and the opening command to the window from the second switch. Therefore, the fourth switch can avoid driving the second switch, and can suppress power consumption caused by driving the second switch. In other words, when the fourth switch is provided not on the first current path but on the second current path, the second switch can be driven.

The vehicle door includes, for example, a right front door 130 on the driver's seat side, a left front door 118 on the passenger seat side, and a rear right The seat includes a right rear door 121 on the seat side and a left rear door 119 on the rear left seat side. In the example of FIG. 1, the directions (not shown) in which the automobile 110 moves forward and backward represent “front” and “rear”, respectively, and the driver seat and the passenger seat side represent “right” and “left”, respectively. Represent.

  In the example of FIG. 1, the automobile 110 has a right handle (not shown). However, if the automobile 110 has a left handle (not shown), the driver seat and the passenger seat side are “left And the left front window 142 and the left front door 118 are the left front window 142 and the left front door 118 on the driver's seat side, for example.

  FIG. 2 shows a configuration example of the right front door 130 of FIG. In the example of FIG. 2, the right front door 130 is shown with a hole seal, an upper lining, a door lining, etc. removed. In the example of FIG. 2, the right front window 140 of the right front door 130 is closed by the door glass 145, but the right front window 140 can be opened by lowering the door glass 145.

  In the example of FIG. 2, the door glass 145 rises to the maximum. At this time, the front side 161, the upper side 162, and the rear side 163 of the door glass 145 are in contact with the run channel (run rubber) 144. A part (attachment portion) of the lower side 164 of the door glass 145 is attached to a regulator (drive mechanism) 146a. For example, the regulator 146 a includes a rail 174, a slide member 175 slidably attached to the rail 174, and a feed cable 176 and a return cable 177 connected to the slide member 175. The drive unit 178a can drive the feed cable 176 and the return cable 177, and the slide member 175 of the regulator 146a can be moved up and down by the drive unit 178a.

  In the example of FIG. 2, the rail 174 is fixed to the door lower portion 133 of the right front door 130 with brackets 179 and 179. The front sash 147 and the center sash 148 support the front part and the rear part of the run channel 144, respectively.

  In the example of FIG. 2, the drive unit 178a is configured by, for example, a motor 180a, and the motor 180a or the drive unit 178a is controlled by the switch unit 182a or the controller 181a on the driver's seat side. Note that each of the left front door 118, the right rear door 121, and the left rear door 119 in FIG. 1 also includes a window 142, 141, a window 143, or a regulator that can open and close the glass. In other words, a vehicle such as the automobile 110 in FIG. 1 includes a power window system capable of independently controlling each of the four windows 140, 142, 141, and 143, for example. In the example of FIG. 2, the regulator 146a is a cable (wire) type, but the regulator employed in the power window system may be, for example, an arm type.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of a block diagram of a power window system comprising a power window control device according to the present invention. In the example of FIG. 3, the power window control device includes, for example, a controller 181a on the driver's seat side, a controller 181b on the passenger seat side, a controller 181c on the rear right seat side, and a controller 181d on the rear left seat side. However, the power window control device may be configured by only the switch section 182a on the driver seat side and at least one switch section on the other seat side other than the driver seat (for example, the switch section 182b on the passenger seat side). Alternatively, the power window control device may further include, for example, motors 180a, 180b, 180c, and 180d on the driver's seat, front passenger seat, rear right seat, and rear left seat side.

  In the example of FIG. 3, the switch unit 182a on the driver's seat side can output a close command and an open command to the window 140 on the driver's seat side, and at least one window on the other seat side (preferably all the windows) A close command and an open command can also be output to the windows 142, 141, 143) on the other seat side. In the example of FIG. 3, each of the switch units 182b, 182c, and 182d on the other seat side can output a close command and an open command to the corresponding one of the windows 142, 141, and 143.

  In the example of FIG. 3, the switch section 182a on the driver's seat side includes at least one other seat side switch to at least one other seat side window (preferably, all other seat side windows 142, 141, 143). The closing command and the opening command from the switch unit (preferably all the switch units 182b, 182c, 182d on the other seat side) can be invalidated. Even when the switch section 182a on the driver's seat invalidates the operation of all the switch sections 182b, 182c, and 182d on the other seat side, for example, to the window 142 on the passenger seat side from the switch section 182a on the driver's seat side. When at least one of the close command and the open command (for example, either the close command or the open command) is output, for example, the switch unit 182b on the passenger seat side is the assistant from the switch unit 182a on the driver seat side. The operation on the seat-side window 142 (for example, either the closing command or the opening command) can be invalidated.

  FIG. 4 shows an example of a circuit of a power window control device according to the present invention. In the example of FIG. 4, the circuit or power window control device includes, for example, switches 11 and 13 (first switch) on the other seat side for opening and closing a window 142 on the passenger seat side as at least one other seat side window, The switches 22 and 24 (second switch) on the driver's seat side, the lock switch 30 (third switch) that can lock (invalidate) the switches 11 and 13 on the other seat side, and the switches 11, 13, 22, and 24 are controlled. Motor 180b and the like. However, the circuit or power window control device may be configured by only the first switches 11 and 13, the second switches 22 and 24, and the third switch 30.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the circuit corresponds to, for example, the controller 181a having the driver side switch unit 182a, the controller 181b having the passenger side switch unit 182b, and the passenger side motor 180b of FIG. Can do.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the first switch is a switch 11 on the other seat side that can output an opening command to the window 142 (window on the other seat side) and a switch on the other seat side that can output a closing command to the window 142. The second switch has a driver side switch 22 that can output an opening command to the window 142 and a driver side switch 24 that can output a closing command to the window 142. . Here, for example, when a closing command to the window 142 is output from the switch 24 (second switch) on the driver's seat side, the first switch 11 (opening command switch) is connected to the first switch 11 via the interlocking unit 16, for example. 2 The closing command to the window 142 from the switch 24 can be invalidated. Specifically, the interlocking unit 16 interlocks the first switch 11 with a shutoff switch 15 (fourth switch) that can shut off a closing command to the window 142 from the switch 24 (second switch) on the driver's seat side. Yes.

  However, by changing the example of FIG. 4, for example, when a closing command to the window 142 is output from the switch 24 (second switch) on the driver's seat side, instead of the first switch 11 (opening command switch). For example, the first switch 13 (closing command switch) may be able to invalidate the opening command from the second switch 22 to the window 142. Similarly, for example, when an opening command to the window 142 is output from the switch 22 (second switch) on the driver's seat side, the first switch 11 (open command switch) and the first switch 13 (close command switch) At least one may be able to invalidate the opening command to the window 142 from the second switch 22.

  According to the power window control device or circuit according to the present invention, when the switches 24, 22 (second switch) on the driver's seat side open and close the window 142 (vehicle window) on the other seat side, the switch on the other seat side By operating 11, 13 (first switch), the operation of the switches 24, 22 (second switch) on the driver's seat side can be stopped. Accordingly, when one of the second switches 24 and 22 is operated against the intention of the occupant seated in the other seat and the window 142 on the other seat side is operated, one of the first switches 11 and 13 is operated. Thus, the operation of the window 142 can be stopped by disabling the second switches 24 and 22.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the cutoff switch 15 (fourth switch) is constituted by a normally closed switch, for example. The cutoff switch 15 is closed unless the cutoff switch 15 is operated. In other words, the cutoff switch 15 can be opened only when the cutoff switch 15 is operated. Here, since the interlocking unit 16 interlocks the cutoff switch 15 (fourth switch) with the first switch 11 (open command switch), the cutoff switch 15 closes when the first switch 11 is not operated, while the first switch When the switch 11 is operated, the cutoff switch 15 is opened.

  The interlocking part 16 can be composed of mechanical or electrical components, for example, an operation knob. Specifically, each of the first switch 11 and the fourth switch 15 is constituted by, for example, a push button switch, and the operation knob of the first switch 11 is also used as the operation knob of the fourth switch 15. When the operation knob (interlocking portion 16) is not operated, the first switch 11 (open command switch) is opened, and the fourth switch 15 (cutoff switch) is closed. On the other hand, when the operation knob (interlocking portion 16) is operated, the push button of the first switch 11 (open command switch) is turned on with the operation knob, the first switch 11 is closed, and the fourth switch is operated with the operation knob. The push button 15 (cut-off switch) is also turned on and the fourth switch 15 is opened.

  The operation of the circuit of FIG. 4 for opening and closing the passenger seat side window 142 will be described below. In the example of FIG. 4, when the ignition switch 41 is turned on, a current flows through the coil constituting the electromagnet in the relay 42, the switch in the relay 42 is closed, and the motor 180 b can be driven. Specifically, for example, both the contact point b in the relay 12 and the contact point b in the relay 14 are connected to a power supply line + B having a positive potential from the power supply device 40 configured by a vehicle battery. Here, for example, when the second switch 22 (open command switch) is turned on, the transistor switch 23 is energized, a current flows through the coil constituting the electromagnet in the relay 12, and the changeover switch in the relay 12 The switch contact is switched from contact a to contact b. Thereby, the electric power from the power supply line + B is supplied to one of both ends of the motor 180b, and the window 142 can be opened.

  When the second switch 24 (close command switch) is turned on instead of the second switch 22 (open command switch), the transistor switch 25 is energized, and a current flows through the coil that constitutes the electromagnet in the relay 14. The changeover switch switches the switch contact in the relay 14 from the contact a to the contact b. As a result, the power from the power supply line + B is supplied to the other end of the motor 180b, and the window 142 can be closed.

  By the way, when the third switch 30 (lock switch) is turned off, the window 142 can be opened by turning on the first switch 11 (open command switch) instead of the second switches 22 and 24. Specifically, the transistor switches 21 and 10 can be energized when the third switch 30 is turned off. When the first switch 11 (open command switch) is turned on, the transistor switch 21 is energized, and further the transistor switch 10 Is also energized, the relay 12 is operated through the first switch 11 (open command switch), and the switch contact in the relay 12 is switched from the contact a to the contact b. As a result, power from the power supply line + B is supplied to one of both ends of the motor 180b, and the motor 180b can drive the window 142 to open.

  When the third switch 30 (lock switch) is turned off, the transistor switch 21 is energized when the first switch 13 (close command switch) is turned on instead of the second switches 22, 24 and the first switch 11. The transistor switch 10 is also energized, the relay 14 is operated through the first switch 13 (close command switch), and the switch contact in the relay 14 is switched from the contact a to the contact b. As a result, power from the power supply line + B is supplied to the other end of the motor 180b, and the motor 180b can drive the window 142 to close.

  On the other hand, when the third switch 30 (lock switch) is turned on and neither of the second switches 22 and 24 is operated, the transistor 21 is not energized. Regardless of whether one of the switches 11 and 13 is turned on, the motor 180b is not driven.

  However, even when the third switch 30 (lock switch) is turned on, for example, when the second switch 22 (open command switch) is turned on, the motor 180b drives the window 142 to open. Similarly, for example, when the second switch 24 (close command switch) is turned on, the motor 180b drives the window 142 to close.

  However, such an operation of the second switch 24 (close command switch) may be an operation of the window 142 on the other seat side by the driver contrary to the intention of the passenger sitting in the other seat. Even in such a case, when the first switch 11 (open command switch) is turned on, the motor 180b is directly driven by the operation of the first switch 11, and the operation of the third switch 30 (lock switch). Although the fourth switch 15 (cutoff switch) is opened in conjunction with the operation of the first switch 11, the current flowing through the coil in the relay 14 is cut off, and the switch contact in the relay 14 becomes the contact b. The contact point a is returned to and the closing drive of the window 142 by the motor 180b can be stopped.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the fourth switch 15 (cutoff switch) is interlocked with the first switch 11 (open command switch). However, the interlocking portion 16 of FIG. The cutoff switch) may be interlocked with the first switch 13 (close command switch). In this case, when the closing command to the window 142 is output from the second switch 24, the first switch 13 (closing command switch) can invalidate the closing command from the second switch 24. Alternatively, in the example of FIG. 4, the fourth switch 15 (cutoff switch) is provided between the ground point g13 on the first switch 13 side and one of both ends of the coil in the relay 14. By modifying the fourth switch 15, the fourth switch 15 may be provided between the ground point g 11 on the first switch 11 side and one of both ends of the coil in the relay 12. In this case, the first switch 11 (open command switch) can invalidate the open command from the second switch 22 when the open command to the window 142 is output from the second switch 22. Alternatively, the interlocking unit 16 and the fourth switch 15 in FIG. 4 are modified so that the fourth switch 15 (cutoff switch) is interlocked with the first switch 13 (close command switch) and the fourth switch 15 is the first switch. It may be provided between the ground point g11 on the switch 11 side and one of both ends of the coil in the relay 12. In this case, when the opening command from the second switch 22 to the window 142 is output, the first switch 13 (closing command switch) can invalidate the opening command from the second switch 22.

  Thus, even when the switch on the other seat (first switch 11, 13) cannot open and close the window 142 on the other seat side with the lock switch 30 (third switch) turned on, Contrary to the intention of the occupant seated in the other seat, when the switch on the driver's seat side (second switch 22, 24) is opening or closing the window 142 on the other seat side, for example, the switch on the other seat side (first switch 11). , 13), the operation of the driver side switches (second switches 22, 24) can be stopped.

  In particular, when either the closing command or the opening command to the window 142 from the second switch 22 or 24 is output, either the closing command or the opening command to the window 142 from the second switch (for example, Either the closing command or the opening command (for example, the opening / closing command) to the window 142 from the first switch 11 or 13 opposite to the closing command) is the closing command to the window 142 from the second switch 22 or 24. Alternatively, when either one of the opening commands (for example, the closing command) can be invalidated, the operation of the second switch 24 can be countered by the intuitive operation of the first switch 11, for example. The property can be further improved. Alternatively, the operation of the second switch 22 can be countered by the intuitive operation of the first switch 13, for example, which is the opposite of the operation of the second switch 22, and the convenience of the first switch 13 is further improved. Can do.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the window operation by the second switch 24 can be stopped by the opening command to the window 142 from the first switch 11. An occupant seated in another seat only needs to perform an operation to open the window 142, so that the occupant's intention is easily reflected in the operation, or the occupant can easily remember the operation or quickly perform the operation. Can be executed.

  In the example of FIG. 4, for example, the operation by the second switches 22 and 24 on the driver's seat side is performed only while the push button of the second switches 22 and 24 is operated on the operation knob (not shown) on the driver seat side. The manual operation for driving 180b is not limited to this, and the operation knob on the driver's seat side is once operated, and the second switches 22, 24 are pressed with, for example, the push buttons of the second switches 22, 24 being pressed. May be an auto operation in which the motor 180b continues to be driven while being locked, or a two-stage operation in which a manual operation or an auto operation is selected according to the operation angle of the operation knob on the driver's seat side. Similarly, the operation by the first switches 11 and 13 on the other seat side is, for example, a manual operation, but may be an automatic operation, or a manual operation or an operation according to an operation angle of the operation knob (interlocking portion 16). It may be a two-stage operation in which the automatic operation is selected.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the second switches 22, 24 and the third switch 30 are arranged in the controller 181 a on the driver's seat side, but not limited to this configuration, all or one of these switches 22, 24, 30. The unit may be disposed in the vehicle interior, for example, in the instrument panel (not shown) or in the vicinity thereof, or may be disposed in a remote control that can be taken out of the vehicle interior. Further, the third switch 30 may not be disposed in the vicinity of either of the second switches 22 and 24.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the controller 181a on the driver's seat side sends the third switch 30 and the second switches 22 and 24 (switch unit 182a) and commands from these switches 22, 24 and 30 to the motor 180b or the transistor switch 10. Transistor switches 21, 23, 25 (drive unit) for transmitting to the device, this drive unit may be composed of elements other than the transistor switches 21, 23, 25. Further, the driver's seat side controller 181a drives the switch portion 182a having a switch (not shown) capable of outputting a closing command and an opening command to the driver's seat side window 140, and the driver's seat side window 140. Although it is comprised with the drive part which has the switch (not shown) and relay (not shown) which drive the possible motor 180a, in the example of FIG. 4, these switches and relays are abbreviate | omitted.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the controller 181 b on the passenger seat side includes the first switches 11 and 13 (switch unit 182 b), the fourth switch 15 interlocked with the first switch 11, the first switch 11, 13, or the second switch, for example. Although the relays 12 and 14 (drive unit) for transmitting commands from the switches 22 and 24 to the motor 180b are provided, the drive unit may be configured by elements other than the relays 12 and 14. .

  In the example of FIG. 4, a fuse is provided between the power supply device 40 and the controller 181a on the driver's seat, and the wiring including this fuse branches the power supplied from the power supply line B +. It is supplied to the controller 181a on the driver's seat side. Similarly, a fuse is also provided between the power supply device 40 and the controller 181b on the passenger seat side, and the wiring including this fuse branches the power supplied from the supply from the power supply line B +. It is supplied to the controller 181b on the passenger seat side. For example, even if the fourth switch 15 linked to the first switch 11 is provided outside the controller 181a on the driver's side and the controller 181b on the passenger's side like these wirings, the fourth switch 15 cuts off the power. Thus, for example, the first switch 11 can counter the second switch 24, for example. However, the fourth switch 15 linked with the first switch 11 invalidates not only the second switch 24 but also the other switches 22 and 30.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the electric power supplied to the controller 181a on the driver's seat side is supplied to, for example, the second switch 24 (close command switch) via the transistor switch 25, and when the second switch 24 is turned on, the first current is supplied. Flows from the power supply line B + side through the transistor switch 25 and the second switch 24 to the ground point g24 side on the second switch 24 side. Here, the path of the first current toward the ground point g24 includes, for example, the ground line GND from the ground point g24 to the ground point G2. At the same time, the second current flows from the transistor switch 25 side to the ground point g13 side on the first switch 13 side via the coil in the relay 14 and the fourth switch 15. Here, the path of the second current to the ground point g13 includes, for example, the ground line GND from the ground point g13 to the ground point G1. Due to the first current and the second current, the switch contact in the relay 14 is switched from the contact a to the contact b, and the third current is switched from the power supply line B + side to the changeover switch (contact b) in the relay 14 and the motor. It flows to the ground point g11 side on the first switch 11 side through 180b and the changeover switch (contact point a) in the relay 12. Here, the path of the third current toward the ground point g11 includes, for example, the ground line GND from the ground point g11 to the ground point G1. The rotation direction of the motor 180b is controlled by the direction of the current flowing in the motor 180b, and the window 142 is closed by the third current flowing from the lower direction to the upper direction in FIG.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the fourth switch 15 and the interlocking unit 16 are provided in the controller 181b on the passenger seat side, but may be provided in the controllers 181c and 181d on the other seat side other than the passenger seat. Specifically, for example, the fourth switch 15 includes a first current path (the first current path and the above-described first current path) caused by at least one of the closing command and the opening command from the second switches 22 and 24 to the window 142. The second current path (the second current path) or the second current path (the third current path) that causes only the driving of the motor 180b in the drive unit that can move the window 142 may be provided. Preferably, for example, the fourth switch 15 is provided on the first current path. In this case, the fourth switch 15 can avoid driving the second switch 24, for example, and can suppress power consumption caused by driving the second switch 24 (driving unit 25). In other words, when the fourth switch 15 is provided not on the first current path but on the second current path, for example, the second switch 24 is driven, and the drive unit 25 continues to consume power.

  In the example of FIG. 4, for example, the first switch 11 only receives a closing command to the window 142 from the second switch 24 so that only the closing command to the window 142 from the second switch 24 can be invalidated, for example. The resulting first current path (the path from the transistor switch 23 side to the ground point g24 side on the second switch 24 side of the first current path, the second current path, and the third current path) A first current path from the second switch 24 to the ground point g13 on the first switch 13 side (from the transistor switch 23 side of the first current path to the ground point g24 side on the second switch 24 side). The fourth switch 15 is provided on the current path and the current path of the second current.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the power supplied to the controller 181a on the driver's seat side is, for example, the same as the second switch 24 (close command switch) via the transistor switches 21 and 10, for example, the first switch 13 (close command switch). When supplied and the first switch 13 is turned on, the fourth current flows from the transistor switch 21 side through the transistor switch 10 and the first switch 13 to the ground point g13 side on the first switch 13 side. Here, the path of the fourth current to the ground point g13 includes, for example, the ground line GND from the ground point g13 to the ground point G1. The third current flows also due to the fourth current.

  The fourth switch overlaps the first current path and the third current path (the fourth current path) resulting from at least one of the closing command and the opening command from the first switches 11 and 13 to the window 142. It may be provided in the part to do. Specifically, in the example of FIG. 4, the first current path is caused only by the closing command from the second switch 24 to the window 142, and the ground point g <b> 13 on the first switch 13 side from the second switch 24. And a portion overlapping the first current path to the third current path (fourth current path) resulting from only the closing command from the first switch 13 to the window 142 (for example, from the first switch 13 to the relay 14) As an example of the ground point G2 (including the ground line GND) via the coil, the fourth switch 15 is disposed. Since the fourth switch 15 is provided on the first switch 13 side or the grounding point g13 side, the fourth switch 15 is easily incorporated on the first switch 13 side or the grounding point g13 side as compared with the second switch 24 side. In other words, it is easy to add the fourth switch 15 interlocked with the first switch 11 to the circuit constituting the existing passenger side controller 181b.
