Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a movement control method for a two-wheeled vehicle,

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a technology for restricting movement of a two-wheeled vehicle, and particularly relates to a technology for restricting movement of a two- If the driver is not a legitimate user, it is determined that the vehicle is stolen, and a warning alarm is generated to the user located at the ground. In addition, when the driver parks the motorcycle, the device or the device for restricting movement according to the driver's will is activated The present invention relates to a method for restricting movement for a motorcycle which can prevent theft caused by movement.

The two-wheeler, which is relatively light in weight compared to a heavy four-wheel vehicle, is vulnerable to theft. A technique for fixing the two-wheeled vehicle to a fixed portion such as a road or fixing the directional handle of the two-wheeled vehicle in a direction in which the two-wheeled vehicle can not move is used to prevent the two-wheeled vehicle from being stolen.

For example, even if the wheels of a two-wheeler are fixed or the directional handle is fixed in a direction in which movement is impossible, a theft accident frequently occurs. Motorcycle stolen accidents are increasing due to the increase in the price of the motorcycle due to the upgraded performance of the motorcycle.

However, theft prevention device using a locking device fundamentally has various disadvantages. First, unlike a four-wheeled vehicle, the anti-theft device that can be installed on a two-wheeled vehicle is relatively simple in terms of mechanism. This is because the size of the two-wheeled vehicle itself is comparatively small compared to that of a four-wheeled vehicle, and the anti-theft device having a relatively simple structure is likely to be broken. Further, even if such an anti-theft device is installed due to the structural characteristics of the two-wheeler, there is a problem that the vehicle is exposed to the outside. In such a physical anti-theft device, the driver has to manually lock / unlock manually. Second, when installing a mechanical anti-theft device on a two-wheeled vehicle, the weight of the two-wheeled vehicle necessarily increases, which is directly related to the fuel efficiency and performance of the two-wheeled vehicle.

Therefore, various techniques have been developed to prevent theft of a two-wheeled vehicle without significantly affecting the weight of the two-wheeled vehicle, and some of them are as follows.

In Korean Patent Application No. 10-2008-0080662, "Anti-theft device for two-wheeled automobiles (prior art 1)", a device for preventing or limiting the movement of the handle is used to prevent theft, You can turn the lock on or off. However, even if the handle is locked, the wheel can still be rolled, and it is particularly vulnerable to theft if the handle lock itself is damaged by a strong impact.

A system and method for monitoring theft of farm machinery using location tracking and text services (prior art 2), Korean Patent Application No. 10-2008-0098856, discloses a method of detecting a theft situation, And provides the technology to service the characters.

In addition, Korean Patent Application No. 10-2000-0035778 discloses a technique for authenticating a legitimate user, such as recognizing a biometric signal, in consideration of "user identification theft prevention / information security device (prior art 3)".

In the case of storing the bicycle in the storage area of the bicycle, it is necessary to attach a locking device to the bicycle to store the bicycle in the storage area of the bicycle, as described in Korean Patent Application No. 10-2008-0110046, entitled " A lock setting is performed, and when a vibration or the like is detected at this time, a technique for transmitting a warning sound and transmitting position information is disclosed.

In addition, Korean Patent Application No. 10-2007-0120804 entitled " Theft / Loss Prevention and theft / Loss Prevention System Using Near Field Wireless Communication (Prior Art 5) " Discloses a system for notifying a user of a situation based on an Ethernet. In this case, a sensor network using ZigBee may be used.

Finally, Korean Patent Application No. 10-2010-0031348, "Motorcycle Theft Prevention Device and Control Method (Prior Art 6) ", uses sensors to determine various situations and perform operations accordingly, The authentication is performed when the movement is detected, and the alarm is generated when the authentication is failed.

However, it is impossible to prevent the two-wheeled vehicle from being stolen even if an alarm is generated when a theft situation is detected using such conventional technology. This is because it takes time for the owner or the police to come to the scene even if the owner or the police notify the occurrence of the theft. Or there may be situations where the owner or the police can not be dispatched immediately. In this case, even if the owner receives an alarm and the driver comes running, it may happen that the driver may only confirm that his or her motorcycle has been stolen.

Therefore, there is a desperate need for an anti-theft technology capable of detecting the stolen state of the motorcycle and informing the owner of the stolen state of the motorcycle, as well as fundamentally disabling the current theft attempt.

The present invention relates to a method for preventing theft of a vehicle or a two-wheeled vehicle and a method for restricting movement for a two-wheeled vehicle, which, when user authentication fails, restricts the movement of the two- And to provide a method of restricting movement.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a movement restriction and an anti-theft device for a two-wheeled vehicle, the portable electronic device including a portable electronic key for transmitting user authentication information and a function setting command of a controller for user authentication using short- 10); A user authentication controller (20) for receiving the user authentication information received from the portable electronic key (10) and confirming whether the user is an authentic user; A control unit 310 interlocked with the brake line 3 of the two-wheeled vehicle and receiving and determining a signal of the vehicle state of the two-wheeled motor vehicle, and a controller 310 for transmitting and receiving a control signal and a status signal A movement limiting device controller 300 provided as an actuator control circuit part for controlling driving of an actuator provided on the brake line 3 according to a signal of the control part 310, And a movement limiter provided at one side of the motorcycle 3 and including an actuator capable of controlling the hydraulic pressure of the brake line 3. The control unit 310 controls the movement of the motorcycle And permits movement of the motorcycle under the control of the control unit 310 according to whether or not the user is authenticated.

The control unit 310 communicates with the electronic key adjacent to the two-wheeled vehicle and receives the authentication information included in the electronic key. When the received authentication information is not the same as the stored authentication information, it is determined that a theft condition has occurred And the movement of the two-wheeler is restricted by driving the actuator.

The movement restricting device is configured to selectively lock or unlock the wheels of the two-wheeler under the control of the control unit (310).

On the other hand, in the control method using the movement restricting device for a two-wheeled vehicle, a step of receiving a user authentication signal through wireless communication through the controller for user authentication 20 and judging the validity of the received authentication information; When the received authentication information is valid, the control unit 310 transmits an unlock signal to the actuator control circuit unit 320; The actuator having received the unlock signal from the actuator control circuit unit 320 opens the flow path of the brake line 3 to release the lock state; Entering the low power state when the locked state is released, moved and driven; And if the received authentication information is not valid, the controller 310 transmits a signal for maintaining the locked state to maintain the locked state and restrict the movement.

If the authentication information received through the portable electronic key 10 is invalid, the control unit 310 transmits a lock state maintaining signal to the actuator control circuit unit 320 ; The actuator maintaining a locked state of a flow path of the brake line (3) to the actuator side; And returning to the low power state when the locked state is maintained.

According to the present invention, since the movement restriction device included in the anti-theft device makes the movement of the two-wheeler itself impossible when the theft situation occurs, theft of the two-wheeler is fundamentally prevented.

In order to fully understand the present invention, operational advantages of the present invention, and objects achieved by the practice of the present invention, reference should be made to the accompanying drawings and the accompanying drawings which illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention can be implemented in various different forms, and is not limited to the embodiments described. In order to clearly describe the present invention, parts that are not related to the description are omitted, and the same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same members.

1 is a diagram showing the entire configuration in which a two-wheeled vehicle movement restricting device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is installed on the two-wheeled vehicle 2. In Fig. 2 is a view conceptually showing a configuration of a movement restricting device 1 for a motorcycle according to an embodiment of the present invention.

1 and 2, the configuration of the movement restriction and theft prevention device for a two-wheeled vehicle according to the present invention is configured to use a long distance wireless communication capable of wireless communication within a range of a short distance or several tens of meters A portable electronic key (10) for transmitting user authentication information and a function setting command of a controller for user authentication; A user authentication controller (20) for receiving the user authentication information received from the portable electronic key (10) and confirming whether the user is an authentic user; A control unit 310 provided in association with the brake line 3 of the two-wheeled vehicle 2 for receiving, determining, and controlling a signal of the vehicle state of the two-wheeled vehicle 2; And an actuator control circuit part for controlling driving of the actuator provided on the brake line 3 according to a signal of the control part 310, And an actuator 400 provided at one side of the brake line 3 and capable of controlling the hydraulic pressure of the brake line 3, And controls the movement of the motorcycle 2 under the control of the control unit 310 and permits the movement of the motorcycle 2 under the control of the control unit 310 according to whether or not the user is authenticated.

The control unit 310 communicates with the electronic key adjacent to the two-wheeled vehicle 2 to receive the authentication information included in the electronic key, and if the received authentication information is not the same as the stored authentication information, And controls the movement of the two-wheeler (2) by driving the actuator.

The movement restriction device 30 is configured to selectively lock or release the wheels of the motorcycle 2 under the control of the control unit 310. [

The reason for using the short-distance wireless communication and the long-distance wireless communication in order to communicate with the portable electronic key 10 in the present invention is as follows. Generally, the longer the communication distance, the more convenient the user can control the motorcycle 2 at a distance. However, this proposition is not necessarily correct for the theft prevention of a two-wheeled vehicle (2).

For example, if the communication distance between the movement restricting device 30 and the portable electronic key 10 reaches several hundred meters, in reality, even if the user is located several hundred meters from the two-wheeled vehicle 2, When a user trying to steal is authenticated, a user who is a few hundred meters away may be mistakenly judged as trying to move the two-wheeled vehicle 2 rather than a criminal. Therefore, it is preferable to use a communication with a relatively short distance as the communication for user authentication request. For this purpose, it is desirable to select a communication distance of a few meters, such as LF (Low Frequency) wireless communication.

In the present invention, RF (Radio Frequency) wireless communication is used for long-distance wireless communication, and even commercial wireless communication networks such as CDMA, LTE and LTE-A can be used. When a commercial wireless communication network is used, there is an advantage that a remote user can be informed of a theft attempt regardless of the communication distance.

Hereinafter, the operation of the controller 310 will be described in detail.

The controller 310 receives the user authentication signal transmitted from the portable electronic key 10, determines whether the user is a true user, and controls the user.

If the information received from the portable electronic key 10 is the same as the stored information, it means that a legitimate user intends to move the motorcycle 2. [ Therefore, when the controller 310 is in a normal start condition, the controller 310 deactivates the actuator 400 so that the motorcycle 2 can be moved.

When the authentication through the normal wireless communication is completed, the controller 310 transmits the power control signal of the two-wheeler 2 to switch the motorcycle 2 to the startable state even if there is no insertion of a separate physical key .

If the signal is not a signal from an authenticated user or an attempt to steal is detected, the control unit 310 may include a warning notification device communicating with the portable electronic key 10 through wireless communication, And whether it is operated by an unauthorized user.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a method using the movement restricting device 1 for a motorcycle according to the embodiment of the present invention.

The control method using the movement restricting device 1 for a motorcycle includes receiving a user authentication signal through a wireless communication through the controller for user authentication 20 and determining the validity of the received authentication information; When the received authentication information is valid, the control unit 310 transmits an unlock signal to the actuator control circuit unit 320; The actuator 400 having received the unlock signal from the actuator control circuit 320 opens the flow path of the brake line 3 to release the unlocked state; Entering the low power state when the locked state is released, moved and driven; And when the received authentication information is not valid, the controller 310 transmits a signal for maintaining the locked state to maintain the locked state and restrict the movement.

If the authentication information received through the portable electronic key 10 is invalid, the controller 310 transmits a lock state maintaining signal to the actuator control circuit 320 And the actuator 400 maintains the locked state of the flow path of the brake line 3 to the actuator 400. When the locked state is maintained, the actuator 400 returns to the low power state.

4 (a), (b) and (c) are diagrams for explaining the operation of the movement restriction device 30 according to the embodiment of the present invention. 5 (a) and 5 (b) are diagrams for explaining the operation of the movement restricting apparatus 30 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

In other words, according to the type of the signal received by the user authentication controller 20, the movement restriction state, that is, the braking state is maintained or released.

When the authentication condition is satisfied through wireless communication with the portable electronic key 10, the user authentication controller 20 performs user authentication on the authentication result and operates according to the flow shown in FIG. 3 according to the result.

4 (a), when the master cylinder of the brake device is moved in the brake operation direction (left in the figure) as in the state where the actuator of the movement restriction device 30 is opened, The pressure applied to the brake, that is, the brake device side, presses the brake pad in the brake caliper module of FIG. 5 (b), particularly, the piston connected to the brake pad according to the Pascal principle so that the brake pad contacts the brake disk Braking.

4 (b), when the brake release state, that is, the piston in the master cylinder returns while the actuator of the movement limiting device 30 is open, the oil delivered to the brake returns to the master cylinder side, The pressure in the master cylinder returns to the pressure before catching the brake lever, so that the brake pads and the brake disc are separated from each other as shown in Fig. 5 (a).

4 (c), when the actuator of the movement restriction device 30 is closed, that is, the oil passage is shut off, the oil delivered by the brake as shown in FIG. 4 (a) It is possible to maintain the braking state or the braking force. This makes it possible to maintain a strong braking state or a weak braking state in proportion to the pressure delivered to the brakes during braking.
