Description

Vehicle status voice warning device

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle state voice warning device, and more particularly, to a vehicle state voice warning device capable of informing the state of a vehicle as voice so that a driver can take emergency measures in the event of a vehicle failure.

With the current increase in vehicles, most households have more than one vehicle. Accordingly, there is a need for a driver to have a basic knowledge of the handling of a vehicle failure. However, knowing in detail the function and operation of each part of the vehicle requires considerable effort, so the vehicle is usually equipped with an electronic control module (ECM) to inform the fault location and status of the vehicle so that the service provider can quickly identify the condition. To make it possible.

The electronic control module performs a program for always diagnosing a state of each part of the vehicle by itself, and when a failure is detected, the electronic control module stores a data on the location and state of the failure in a memory and informs the mechanic as a display code. Perform.

1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a vehicle condition diagnosis system used in the prior art.

Referring to FIG. 1, a conventional vehicle condition diagnosis system includes an engine electronic control module 110 for performing diagnosis on each vehicle part and outputting a result thereof, and a memory for storing output signals of the engine electronic control module 110. (EEPROM) 120, a data detector 130 connected to the engine electronic control module 110 by a mechanic to detect data stored in the memory 120, and a data detector 130 connected to the data detector 130. And display the output data as a display code.

The operation of the vehicle state diagnosis system according to the related art having the above configuration is as follows.

When a failure occurs while the vehicle is running, the engine electronic control module 110 detects the state and stores the state in the memory 120. The memory 120 is stored as a display code according to the state of the broken portion, each item and the display code is shown in Table 1 below.

Table 1

When the driver takes the vehicle to the maintenance center in a state in which the display codes shown in Table 1 are stored in the memory 120, the mechanic connects the data detector 130 to the engine electronic control module 110 so that the memory ( The data stored in the 120 is detected and displayed on the monitor 140.

At this time, the mechanic looks at the displayed display code and checks the location and condition of the fault by comparing it with the manual and takes action accordingly.

For example, if the display code displayed on the monitor 140 is 0 1 0 0 0, measures are taken to identify and replace an abnormality in the crank angle sensor. After the above measures are taken, the data detector 130 is operated again. If a display code indicating another failure is displayed on the monitor 140, the maintenance operation is continuously performed. If the displayed display code is 0 0 0 0 0, the vehicle Check that the condition is normal and complete the maintenance.

However, in the case of the conventional vehicle condition diagnosis system constructed and operated as described above, when one failure occurs, the driver has yet another failure while taking the vehicle to the maintenance company due to the lack of prior knowledge about the driver. There is a problem that occurs, in some cases, causing a traffic accident or sudden stop on the road causing a traffic jam.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, the object of which is to inform the driver by voice when the failure occurs during the operation of the vehicle by allowing the driver to take emergency measures accordingly Another object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle state voice warning device, which can prevent occurrence of a failure.

30: voice memory 40: signal processing unit

50: Speaker 60: Recording Switch

The vehicle status voice warning device according to the present invention for achieving the above object, the electronic control module for diagnosing the failure of each part of the vehicle and outputs the result, as a display code according to the signal output from the electronic control module A display code memory for storing, a voice memory for storing a voice message to be output according to each fault condition, and an input of the output signal of the electronic control module to determine a fault position and input voice data to be output from the voice memory accordingly. And a speaker for outputting a result of the signal processor as a voice signal.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, it is preferable to include a recording switch connected to the electronic control module to determine whether to output an output signal to the display code memory or to a signal processor.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings a preferred embodiment of the vehicle state voice warning device according to the present invention will be described in detail.

Fig. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the present invention, and Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the vehicle status voice warning device of the present invention diagnoses a failure of each part of a vehicle and outputs a result of the electronic control module 10 and a failure according to a signal output from the electronic control module 10. A display code memory 20 for storing a position as a display code, a voice memory 30 for storing a voice message to be output according to each fault position and state, and an output signal from the electronic control module 10 A signal processor 40 for demodulating the voice by receiving the voice data to be output from the voice memory 30 and determining the position thereof, and a speaker 40 outputting the result of the signal processor 40 as a voice signal. And a recording switch 60 connected to the electronic control module 10 to determine whether to output an output signal to the display code memory 20 or to the signal processor 40. So It is sex.

Referring to the flowchart of Figure 3 attached to the operation of the present invention configured as described above in detail as follows.

First, in step S101, the diagnostic program is executed in the electronic control module 10, and it is determined whether a failure has occurred in step S102 according to the result.

If a failure has occurred in the result at step S102, it is determined at step S103 whether the recording switch 60 is turned on. At this time, if the recording switch 60 is not turned ON, the result according to the fault position and state is stored in the display code memory 20 as a display code in step S104 so as not to operate the system, and the recording switch ( If 60 is turned on, the signal processing unit 40 performs matching between the code input from the electronic control module 10 and the address of the voice memory 30 according to the failure position in step S105. Receive voice data.

Thereafter, voice demodulation is performed in step S106, and outputted through the speaker 50 in step S107 to inform the driver of the state of the vehicle.

As described above, the vehicle state voice warning device of the present invention informs the driver of the state by a voice when a vehicle breakdown occurs, thereby preventing traffic accidents in advance, thereby helping to drive safely.
