본 발명은 자동차 범퍼에 관한 것으로, 특히 자동차를 협소한 장소에 주차시 발생하는 경미한 접촉사고를 줄이기 위한 주차 경고 시스템이 내장된 범퍼에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automobile bumper, and more particularly, to a bumper in which a parking warning system is incorporated to reduce a slight contact accident caused when parking a car in a narrow place.

일반적으로, 자동차는 주차시 프론트 및 뒷 범퍼에 물체 감지용 센서 및 시스템이 장착되지 않아 야간 주차시나 초보 운전자의 경우 가벼운 접촉사나 마찰등에 의하여 범퍼의 찌그러짐 등이 발생하는 차량 손상 및 미관상 좋지 못하였다. 특히, 노련한 숙련자라도 사각지대 중 자동차의 앞 쪽(조수석) 및 후방측의 감지가 어렵기 때문에, 항상 조심하지 않으면 안되었다.In general, the vehicle is not equipped with sensors and systems for detecting objects in the front and rear bumpers during parking, so in the case of nocturnal parking or for novice drivers, vehicle damage and bumps caused by light contact or friction are not good. In particular, even a seasoned expert has to be careful at all times because it is difficult to detect the front (passenger seat) and the rear side of the vehicle in the blind spot.

따라서, 본 발명의 목적은 상기와 같은 종래의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 자동차 앞 범퍼 및 뒷 범퍼에 물체 감지용 센서(초음파 센서)를 다수 내장시켜 차량의 후방이나 조수석등에 있는 물체에 초음파를 송신한후, 상기 물체에 부딪혀 돌아오는 수신파를 감지하여 경보기로 알려줌으로써, 운전자가 노면 상황의 변화를 판단하여 필요 조치하도록 하는 데에 있다.Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve the conventional problems as described above, by transmitting a number of sensors for detecting the object (ultrasound sensor) in the front bumper and the rear bumper of the car to transmit ultrasonic waves to an object in the rear or the passenger seat of the vehicle. Then, by detecting the received wave hitting the object and informs the alarm, the driver is to determine the change of the road surface situation to take necessary measures.

상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위하여 본 발명 주차 경고시스템이 내장된 범퍼는, 자동차의 앞 범퍼 및 뒷 범퍼에 다수 개의 초음파 센서를 설치하여 전후방의 노면 상황을 감지하고, 상기 감지된 값을 컴퓨터에 입력하여, 처리된 데이터에 의하여 경보기가 작동되는 것을 특징으로 한다.In order to achieve the above object, the bumper incorporating the parking warning system of the present invention detects road conditions in front and rear by installing a plurality of ultrasonic sensors on the front bumper and the rear bumper of the vehicle, and inputs the detected value into a computer. The alarm is operated by the processed data.

또, 상기 초음파 센서는 송신부와 수신부로 이루어지는 것을 특징으로 한다.The ultrasonic sensor may include a transmitter and a receiver.

또, 상기 초음파 감지 센서의 송신 및 수신이 대략 0.2초에 1사이클을 완료하는 것을 특징으로 한다.In addition, the transmission and reception of the ultrasonic sensor is characterized in that completes one cycle in approximately 0.2 seconds.

이라 본 발명의 기술적 구성을 첨부된 도면에 의하여 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.When described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings the technical configuration of the present invention.

제1도 및 제2도에 나타낸 바와같이, 자동차의 앞 범퍼(1) 및 뒷 범퍼(2)에 소정의 간격을 두고 다수 개의 초음파 감지 센서(10)를 설치하였다. 예를들면 상기 초음파 감지 센서(10)은 송신부(10a)와 수신부(10b)로 이루어진다.As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a plurality of ultrasonic sensing sensors 10 are provided in the front bumper 1 and the rear bumper 2 of the vehicle at predetermined intervals. For example, the ultrasonic sensor 10 includes a transmitter 10a and a receiver 10b.

또, 상기 다수 개의 초음파 감지센서(10)는 중앙처리장치(ECU:컴퓨터)(20)와 연결되고,동시에 상기 초음파 감지 센서(10)으로부터 받은 감지된 량에 의해 운전자에게 알려주기 위한 경보기(30)가 연결 설치 된다.In addition, the plurality of ultrasonic sensor 10 is connected to the central processing unit (ECU: computer) 20, the alarm 30 for notifying the driver by the detected amount received from the ultrasonic sensor 10 at the same time ) Is connected and installed.

또, 상기 경보기(30) 및 감지 센서(10)의 작동을 운전자의 편리에 따라 온/오프 할 수 있는 스위치(40)를 설치하였다.In addition, a switch 40 for turning on / off the operation of the alarm 30 and the sensor 10 according to the convenience of the driver is installed.

이상과 같이 설치되는 초음파 감지 센서의 원리는, 초음파의 특성 즉 인간의 귀로 들을 수 없는 가청파에 의해 주파수가 높고, 지향성이 강하기 때문에 상기 초음파 센서로부터 초음파를 발사하여 물체에 부딪쳤다가 반사해 돌아오는 시간을 측정함으로써 물체까지의 거리를 알 수가 있다.The principle of the ultrasonic sensor installed as described above is that the frequency is high and directivity is due to the characteristics of the ultrasonic wave, that is, the audible wave which cannot be heard by the human ear. By measuring the time, the distance to the object can be known.

따라서, 본 발명은 이러한 원리를 이용한 것으로, 초음파 감지 센서(10)는 송신부(10A)와 수신부(10b)로 이루어지며 상기 송신부(10a)가 초음파를 발사하여 장애물까지의 거리(대략 40MHz의 일정거리)를 측정한다. 이때 초음파는 일정시간마다(예를들면 약0.2초) 반복적으로 발사되고 있다.Therefore, the present invention uses this principle, and the ultrasonic sensor 10 is composed of a transmitter 10A and a receiver 10b, and the transmitter 10a emits an ultrasonic wave to a obstacle (a predetermined distance of approximately 40 MHz). Measure Ultrasonic waves are repeatedly fired every time (for example, about 0.2 seconds).

이어서, 상기 수신부(10b)가 발사된 초음파가 반사하여 되돌아오기까지의 시간을 측정하여 측정된 값을 컴퓨터(20)로 보낸다.Subsequently, the receiver 10b measures the time until the emitted ultrasound is reflected and returns, and sends the measured value to the computer 20.

이어서, 상기 컴퓨터(20)에서 검출된 데이터 값에 의하여 경보기(30)로 알리므로서, 운전자가 주차시 노면 상황의 변화를 판단하여 필요 조치하도록 하므로서, 차량의 파손을 방지하고, 또 부주위에 의한 안전사고를 미연에 방지할 수 있어 항상 안정된 상태에서 손쉽게 안전 운전을 할 수가 있다.Subsequently, the alarm device 30 is notified based on the data value detected by the computer 20, so that the driver can determine a change in the road surface situation during parking and prevent necessary actions, thereby preventing damage to the vehicle and Safety accidents can be prevented beforehand, so you can easily drive safely in a stable state at all times.
