자동차용 독서등 자동 소등장치{Automatic lights-out device of reading lamp for automobile}Automatic lights-out device of reading lamp for automobile}

본 발명은 자동차용 독서등 자동 소등장치에 관한 것으로서, 더욱 상세하게는 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치를 자동으로 오프시키도록 설정된 ECU와, 상기 ECU에 의해 상기 보조 스위치를 오프 작동시키는 액츄에이터 수단을 회로 구성하여운전석의 독서등 스위치를 온 작동시키더라도 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치의 온/오프 작동 상태에 상관없이 모두 오프 상태로 리셋 되도록 하고, 선택적으로 독서등을 수동으로 온 작동시킬 수 있도록 함으로써, 수면 상태에 있는 승객에게 방해가 되지 않도록 하는 한편, 전원의 낭비를 방지하여 독서등의 수명을 향상시킬 수 있는 자동차용 독서등 자동 소등장치에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automatic light off apparatus for a reading light for a vehicle, and more particularly, an ECU configured to automatically turn off auxiliary switches of a driver's seat and a passenger seat, and a circuit arrangement of actuator means for turning off the auxiliary switches by the ECU. Even if the reading light switch of the driver's seat is turned on, regardless of the on / off operation state of the auxiliary switch of the driver's seat and passenger's seat, all of them are reset to the off state, and the reading light can be manually turned on manually so that the sleeping state can be manually turned on. The present invention relates to an auto-lighting device for a reading light for a vehicle, which can improve the life of the reading light while preventing a waste of power, while preventing the waste of power.

일반적으로, 자동차의 실내에 장착된 실내등은 차실내를 조명하기 위한 것으로서, 실내를 조명하는 실내등과 독서를 위한 독서등으로 나뉘어진다.In general, the interior light mounted in the interior of a vehicle is to illuminate the interior of the vehicle, and is divided into a interior light that illuminates the interior and a reading light for reading.

상기 독서등은 운전석의 전면상부나 중앙 또는 승객석의 도어내측에 각각 하나씩 장착되어 야간에 지도를 보거나 책을 보기 위하여 점등되도록 되어 있는바, 종래의 자동차용 독서등 스위치 회로도는 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이, 자동차의 배터리(10) 전원으로부터 12V의 직류 전원이 흐르게 되고, 운전석의 독서등 스위치(20)를 온(on) 작동시킨 상태에서 각각의 병렬 회로로 구성된 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치(30)를 온 작동시키면 독서등(40)이 점등되도록 되어 있다.The reading lights are mounted on the front of the driver's seat or at the center or inside the door of the passenger seat, respectively, so that the reading lights are turned on at night to view a map or a book. A conventional reading lamp switch circuit for a vehicle is shown in FIG. 2. Likewise, 12V DC power flows from the power supply of the battery 10 of the vehicle, and the auxiliary switch 30 of the driver's seat and the passenger's seat, each of which is composed of parallel circuits, while the reading light switch 20 of the driver's seat is turned on. When turned on to operate the reading light 40 is to be turned on.

그런데 이와 같은 종래의 자동차용 독서등 스위치 회로도에서 운전자가 운전석의 독서등 스위치(20)를 온 작동시킬 경우, 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치(30)의 상태가 온일 경우와 오프일 경우가 발생하게 되는데, 승객이 없는 시트의 경우, 독서등(40)이 켜져 있게 되면 상기 보조 스위치(30)를 오프하기 전까지는 계속 독서등(40)이 켜져 있게 되어 불필요한 전력을 낭비하게 되고, 상기 독서등(40)의 수명도 단축되는 문제점이 있다.However, when the driver turns on the reading light switch 20 of the driver's seat in the conventional automotive reading light switch circuit diagram, the case where the state of the auxiliary switch 30 of the driver's seat and the passenger's seat is on and off occurs. In the case of a seat without a passenger, when the reading light 40 is turned on, the reading light 40 is continuously turned on until the auxiliary switch 30 is turned off, which wastes unnecessary power, and the reading light 40 ) Also shortens the life.

따라서, 본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 안출한 것으로서, 직류전원에 의해 사용되는 종래의 자동차용 독서등을 배제하고, 대신에 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치를 자동으로 오프시키도록 설정된 ECU와, 상기 ECU에 의해 상기 독서등 스위치를 오프 작동시키는 액츄에이터 수단을 회로 구성하여 운전석의 독서등 스위치를 온 작동시키더라도 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치의 온/오프 작동 상태에 상관없이 모두 오프 상태로 리셋 되도록 하고, 선택적으로 독서등을 수동으로 온 작동시킬 수 있도록 함으로써, 수면 상태에 있는 승객에게 방해가 되지 않도록 하는 한편, 전원의 낭비를 방지하여 독서등의 수명을 향상시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 기능상의 고급화로 차량의 품질도 한차원 높일 수 있는 자동차용 독서등 자동 소등장치를 제공하는데 그 안출의 목적이 있다.Accordingly, the present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and excludes the conventional automotive reading light used by the DC power supply, and instead of the ECU set to automatically turn off the auxiliary switch of the driver's seat and passenger seat; By configuring the actuator means for turning off the reading light switch by the ECU, even if the reading light switch of the driver's seat is turned on, all of the auxiliary switch of the driver's seat and the passenger's seat are reset to the off state regardless of the on / off operation state By selectively turning on the reading light manually, it can prevent the passengers in the sleep state from being disturbed and prevent the waste of power, which can improve the life of the reading light and improve the functional quality. Auto reading lights for automobiles can improve the quality of vehicles To be the purpose of the contemplated.

It is done.

이하, 첨부도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 구성에 대해 상세하게 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in detail.

도 1은 본 발명에 따른 자동차용 독서등 자동 소등장치를 나타내는 회로 구성도이다.1 is a circuit diagram showing an automatic reading light automatic turning off device for a vehicle according to the present invention.

본 발명은 도 1에 도시된 바와 같이, 운전자가 배터리(10) 전원을 통해 운전석의 독서등 스위치(20)를 온(on) 작동시킴에 따라 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치(30) 상태를 판단하고, 그에따라 오프(off) 작동을 실시하도록 전기적 신호를 출력하는 ECU(50)가 상기 운전석의 독서등 스위치(20)와 직렬 연결되어 있다.As shown in FIG. 1, the driver determines the state of the auxiliary switch 30 of the driver's seat and the passenger's seat as the driver turns on the reading light switch 20 of the driver's seat using the battery 10. ECU 50 for outputting an electrical signal to perform an off operation accordingly is connected in series with the reading light switch 20 of the driver's seat.

상기 ECU(50)의 전기적 신호에 의해 구동되며, 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치(30)를 자동으로 오프시키는 액츄에이터 수단(60)이 회로 구성되어 있는바, 상기 액츄에이터 수단(60)은 병렬 회로로 구성된 독서등(40)의 점등 또는 소등에 상관없이 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치(30)를 자동으로 오프상태가 되도록 회로 구성되어 있다.An actuator means 60 driven by an electrical signal of the ECU 50 and configured to automatically turn off the auxiliary switch 30 of the driver's seat and the passenger's seat is configured in a circuit, and the actuator means 60 comprises a parallel circuit. The circuit is configured so that the auxiliary switch 30 of the driver's seat and the passenger seat is automatically turned off regardless of whether the reading light 40 is turned on or off.

다음에는 이러한 구성을 갖는 본 발명의 작동원리에 대해 설명하기로 한다.Next, the operation principle of the present invention having such a configuration will be described.

운전자 또는 승객이 독서등(40)을 사용하기 위해 운전자가 운전석의 독서등 스위치(20)를 온(on) 작동시키면 배터리(10)의 전원이 공급됨에 따라 ECU(50)가 구동하게 되고, 상기 ECU(50)에서 출력하는 전기적 신호를 인가받아 구동하는 액츄에이터 수단(60)이 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치(30)의 온/오프 작동상태에 상관없이 상기 보조 스위치(30)를 오프 상태로 리셋 되도록 한다.When the driver or the passenger operates the reading light switch 20 of the driver's seat in order to use the reading light 40, the ECU 50 is driven as the battery 10 is powered. The actuator means 60, which is driven by receiving an electrical signal output from the ECU 50, resets the auxiliary switch 30 to the off state regardless of the on / off operation state of the auxiliary switch 30 of the driver's seat and the passenger seat. do.

이때, 상기 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치(30)는 각각 병렬 회로로 배터리(10) 전원과 연결되어 있어 독서등(40)을 점등시키려면 운전석 및 승객석의 보조 스위치(30)를 선택적으로 온 작동시켜 각각의 독서등(40)이 점등되도록 한다.At this time, the auxiliary switch 30 of the driver's seat and the passenger's seat are connected to the battery 10 power in parallel circuits, respectively, so that the auxiliary switch 30 of the driver's seat and the passenger's seat is selectively turned on to turn on the reading light 40. Each reading light 40 is turned on.

이상에서 상술한 바와 같이, 본 발명에 따른 자동차용 독서등 자동 소등장치는 수면 상태에 있는 승객에게 방해가 되지 않도록 하여 편의성을 증대시키는 한편, 전원의 낭비를 방지하여 독서등의 수명을 향상시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 기능상의 고급화로 차량의 품질도 한차원 높일 수 있는 효과가 있다.As described above, the automatic reading lights for automobiles according to the present invention can increase convenience by preventing the passengers in the sleep state from disturbing the power while improving the life of the reading lights. In addition, there is an effect that can improve the quality of the vehicle by a higher functional level.
