Abstract

PURPOSE:To detect a speed with high accuracy, by a method wherein a distance sensor is operated when the speed or a vehicle is zero to measure the distance from the tread surface of a wheel and measured data are stored in a speed detector to perform the corrective operation of the diameter of the wheel. CONSTITUTION:A speed zero detection part 7 detects that the output of a speed dynamo 2 is zero in a vehicle stop state to output an order for allowing a distance sensor 3 to measure a distance. At the same time, operation and memory orders are given to a wheel diameter measuring and operating memory part 8 from the detection part 7 and the diameter of the wheel is calculated on the basis of the output signal sent from the sensor 3 to be stored in the memory part 8. The memory part stores the wheel diameter calculation values calculated several times in the past and always stores new measured values of several times in such a state that the oldest one memory value is erased at each time when one new memory value is inputted and outputs the average value of them to a speed detection part 9 with wheel diameter correction operation. In the detection part 9, the signal output proportional to the number of rotations of the wheel inputted from the dynamo 2 during the running of the vehicle is multiplied by the diameter of the wheel to continuously output a speed detection signal.

As is clear from the above description, this invention constantly checks the wheel diameter and takes the average value of several measurement data. Since it measures the tread surface facing the distance sensor when the vehicle is running, more accurate wheel diameter detection is possible, and the wheel diameter correction selector switch inside the speed detector makes it easier to measure the wheel diameter manually than in the past. Compared to the above case, the correction cycle is shorter and the correction is performed steplessly and continuously, making it possible to detect speed with much higher accuracy.
