본 발명은 자동차의 혼 고장 진단 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing horn failure of an automobile.

자동차에 제공되는 혼은 다른 차량이나 사람에게 자동차의 주행 상태 등을 알려주는 일종의 경고 장치로서, 혼이 작동되지 않는 경우에 위험 상황 등을 알려주는 경고 기능이 상실되어, 인명 사고와 같은 교통 사고 등을 유발할 수도 있다.The horn provided to the car is a kind of warning device that informs other vehicles or people of the driving condition of the car.If the horn does not operate, the horn is lost, and the warning function that informs a dangerous situation is lost. May cause

이러한 혼은 엔진룸에 장착되어, 차내의 조향 핸들에 설치되는 스위치에 의하여 자동차의 전방으로 경고음을 내보낸다.This horn is mounted in the engine compartment and emits a warning sound to the front of the vehicle by a switch installed in the steering wheel in the vehicle.

그러나, 종래의 자동차에 있어서, 혼의 불랑율은 매우 높은 편이지만, 혼의 고장을 경고하는 시스템이 없어서, 운전자는 혼의 고장 상태를 잘 알 수 없었다는 문제점이 있었다.However, in the conventional car, the bulge rate of the horn is very high, but there is a problem that the driver cannot know the horn malfunction condition well because there is no system for warning the failure of the horn.

따라서, 본 발명의 목적은 자동차의 혼의 고장 상태를 감지하여 운전자에게 경고함으로써, 혼의 고장에 따른 자동차의 사고를 방지할 수 있는 자동차의 혼 고장 진단 방법을 제공하는데 있다.Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for diagnosing a horn failure of a vehicle capable of preventing an accident of a vehicle due to a failure of a horn by detecting a failure state of a horn of an automobile and warning the driver.

도 2는 본 발명에 따른 자동차의 혼 고장 진단 방법의 흐름도.2 is a flowchart of a horn failure diagnosis method for a vehicle according to the present invention;

(도면의 주요 부분에 대한 부호의 설명)(Explanation of symbols for the main parts of the drawing)

1 : 제어 장치 2 : 혼1: control device 2: horn

3 : 시동 키 4 : 표시 램프3: ignition key 4: indicator lamp

5 : 음압 감지 센서5: sound pressure sensor

상기된 바와 같은 목적은, 시동 스위치를 온시킨 후에, 혼의 기준 음압을 설정하는 단계와; 혼의 작동 전압, 시간을 입력하고, 혼을 작동시키는 단계와; 혼의 작동에 의하여 발생된 음압을 감지하여 기준 음압과 비교하는 단계와; 상기 음압 비교 단계에서 감지 음압이 기준 음압 이상인 경우에 정상이라고 판단하고, 그렇지 않은 경우에 고장 표시 램프를 점등하는 단계를 포함하는 것을 특징으로 하는 본 발명에 따른 자동차의 혼 고장 진단 방법에 의하여 달성된다.The object as described above is, after turning on the start switch, setting a reference sound pressure of the horn; Inputting the operating voltage, time of the horn and operating the horn; Detecting a sound pressure generated by the operation of the horn and comparing the sound pressure with a reference sound pressure; In the sound pressure comparison step, if the detected sound pressure is equal to or more than the reference sound pressure is determined to be normal, otherwise it is achieved by the horn fault diagnosis method of the vehicle, characterized in that it comprises the step of lighting the fault indicator lamp .

이하, 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예를 명세서에 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 보다 상세하게 설명한다.Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 1은 본 발명에 따른 자동차의 혼 고장 진단 방법을 수행하는 장치의 블록도이며, 도 2는 본 발명에 따른 자동차의 혼 고장 진단 방법의 흐름도이다.1 is a block diagram of an apparatus for performing a horn failure diagnosis method for a vehicle according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a horn failure diagnosis method for a vehicle according to the present invention.

도 1 및 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명에 따른 혼 고장 진단 방법은 먼저 시동 키(3)를 온 시키고(S1), 그런 다음, 혼(2)의 기준 음압(B)을 설정하여 제어 장치(1)에 입력한다(S2). 제어 장치(1)는 혼(2)의 작동 전압 및 작동 시간이 입력된다(S3).As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the horn fault diagnosis method according to the present invention is controlled by first turning on the start key (S1), and then setting the reference sound pressure (B) of the horn (2) Input to device 1 (S2). The control device 1 is inputted with the operating voltage and the operating time of the horn 2 (S3).

그런 후에, 사용자는 혼(2)을 작동시키고(S4), 이러한 혼(2)의 작동 음압(A)이 음압 감지 센서(5)에 의하여 감지되어 제어 장치(1)에 입력된다(S5). 제어 장치(1)는 음압 감지 센서(4)에 의하여 감지된 음압(A)과 제어 장치(1)에 설정된 기준 음압(B)을 비교한다(S6).Then, the user operates the horn 2 (S4), and the operating sound pressure A of this horn 2 is sensed by the sound pressure detecting sensor 5 and input to the control device 1 (S5). The control device 1 compares the sound pressure A detected by the sound pressure sensor 4 with the reference sound pressure B set in the control device 1 (S6).

상기 비교 단계(S6)에서, 음압 감지 센서(5)에 감지된 감지 음압(A)이 제어 장치(1)에 설정된 기준 음압(B)보다 크거나 같은 경우에 혼(2)의 상태가 정상이라고 판단하여 종료하고, 음압 감지 센서(5)에 감지된 감지 음압(A)이 제어 장치(1)에 설정된 기준 음압(B)보다 작은 경우에, 혼(2)의 상태가 고장 상태라고 판정하여, 차내에 설치된 표시 램프(4)를 점등하여 운전자에게 이를 경고한다(S7).In the comparison step S6, the state of the horn 2 is normal when the detected sound pressure A detected by the sound pressure sensor 5 is equal to or greater than the reference sound pressure B set in the control device 1. Judging and ending, when the detected sound pressure A sensed by the sound pressure sensor 5 is smaller than the reference sound pressure B set in the control device 1, it is determined that the state of the horn 2 is in a failure state, The indicator lamp 4 installed in the vehicle is turned on to warn the driver of this (S7).

상기된 바와 같은 본 발명에 따른 자동차의 혼 고장 진단 방법에 의하면, 자동차의 혼의 고장 상태를 감지하여 운전자에게 경고함으로써, 혼의 고장에 따른 자동차의 사고를 방지할 수 있다.According to the horn failure diagnosis method of the vehicle according to the present invention as described above, by detecting a failure state of the horn of the vehicle to warn the driver, it is possible to prevent the accident of the vehicle due to the failure of the horn.

이상에서는, 본 발명을 특정의 바람직한 실시예에 대해 기술하고 도시하였으나, 본 발명은 상술한 실시예에 한정되는 것은 아니고, 본 발명이 속하는 기술 분야에서 통상의 지식을 가진 자에 의해, 특허청구범위에 기재된 본 발명의 기술적 사상으로부터 벗어남이 없이, 다양하게 변형 및 변경될 수 있다.In the above, the present invention has been described and illustrated with respect to specific preferred embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and is intended by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. Various modifications and changes may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention described in.
