The present invention is to provide a kind of convenience means that can be operated in one operation by selecting the desired combination of a plurality of electrical appliances.

To this end, an input means for selecting a desired mode and combining desired electronics is required. The input means displays a display for selecting a desired mode and a selection window for selecting and combining desired electronic components (for example, a small LCD). Panel), and an operation switch connected to this display having a cursor movement and an enter function for a mode and an electronic device displayed in a selection window (see FIG. 3).

In this case, when the display is used as a touch screen, the manipulation switch may be excluded.

The input means is also connected to an input side of a control means (e.g. μ-com), the control means comprising a memory in which information by the input means is stored.

In addition, the control means is connected to the BCM (Body Control Module), which can be understood as an integrated module of the entire ECU of the vehicle to enable can communication, of course, the BCM is connected to send a current signal for operation to the entire electronics have.

The contents of the signal flowing on the line of the CAN communication are basically set to the node identification part, the electrical equipment identification code, and the operation selection. Also, in the CAN communication, 11 or 29 bits are used to determine the unique signal of each node. When the identification code is used, the present invention will be defined as follows.

That is, in the BCM, identification code of each node is set to FAM (001), ADM (100), IPM (010), IMS (101), and DDM (011) for CAN communication.

In addition, in the electronic device identification code for can communication, the electronic device identification code of the FAM (001) is set to the wiper 001, the head lamp 101, the gram 100, and the electronic device identification code of the ADM (100) is trunk lid 001, rear Heater 010, sunroof 011, the electrical equipment identification code of the IPM 101 is set to fuel lid (001), air conditioner 010, heater 011, hands free 100, audio 101, the DDM (011) The window 001 and the door lock device 010 are set, and the IMS 101 is set to the user 1 (001), the user 2 (010), the break (011), and the sleep (100).

However, the electronic device identification code may be added or changed.

Here, if the automotive electronics selection operation method of the present invention will be described in order.

First, the coded codes are assigned to all the electrical equipments, and the coded codes are stored in a control means, i.e., a memory of μ-com.

Next, the information displayed on the display of the input means is selected / input while moving the cursor using the operation switch.

4 is a schematic view showing a display example of an input means that stores and selects a mode and an electronic device in a method of operating an electronic device selection according to the present invention.

FIG. 4A is a view showing an initial mode setting screen, and shows a state of inputting a desired mode (for example, “rainy day”) using a text input interface, and a button for returning to a mode setting window at the bottom of the display This is included.

Figure 4 (b) shows the setting step of setting the desired mode, and then select and combine the electrical equipment in the mode, for example, rainy weather 4 (rear glass heating) + 5 (wiper operation) The combination is selected by + ..., and the mode at this time is designated as, for example, Mode 1.

The desired mode thus set up and the electronics selected and included in it are stored in the memory of the μ-com.

Next, the step of selecting (switching) the desired mode (e.g., Mode 1) and inputting the selection signal to the calculating part of the control means proceeds, and the operation signal of the control means is transmitted through the can communication. Sent to BCM

As shown in Fig. 4 (c) or Fig. 5, by selecting the mode 1 (in the rain) using the operation switch, and executing this, the signal of the control means at this time is transmitted to the BCM by the can communication, and then BCM The electrical equipment is activated (wiper driven, sunroof closed, rear glass heated).

In other words, the current signal is sent only to the electrical equipment combined in the desired mode in the BCM, so that the electrical equipment in the desired mode is operated at the same time.

For example, when the signal received from the DDM (011) included in the BCM is a signal 0010011, the DDM controls the electronic device controlled by the DDM by taking only 0011, which is a later sign.

That is, referring to FIG. 7, which illustrates an input signal processing unit of the internal circuit of the BCM module, a voltage for opening a window when a 0011 signal is input is generated, and a voltage for closing a window when a 0010 signal is input.

In this way, by the signal input to the input signal processor of the BCM module, the CPU generates a voltage with respect to the open / close signal of the window, thereby opening or closing the operation of the power window motor.

That is, referring to FIG. 8 showing the operation control unit of the internal circuit of the BCM module, when the open signal comes in, a voltage is applied to the A part to attach a relay on the upper side, and when the close signal comes in, B It is possible to control the rotation direction of the power window motor by attaching a relay at the bottom by applying a voltage to the part.

9 is a circuit diagram illustrating a BCM operation control unit (IMS) for an IMS as a method for selecting an electric equipment for a vehicle according to the present invention.

The IMS (memory sheet) needs to store positions such as sliding, reclining, front height FR_height, rear height RR_height, and the like.

Thus, sensors for each are needed and a separate line is needed to carry this sensor signal.

In the present invention, the part performed for the IMS only specifies the IMS as one BCM, and issues the operation command by treating the mode 1 (mode 1), the mode 2 (mode 2), and the like of the IMS as one electric appliance.

Mode 1 information from the internal memory of the IMS is imported into four parts, such as sliding, reclining, front height FR_height, rear height RR_height, and the circuit of FIG. The example which drives a motor (sliding motor) is shown.

In FIG. 9, part A is a sliding forward, part B is a sliding backward, and the memory of the IMS is not connected to the open / close signal as in the operation example of the above-described window. Receive sensor signal through wire).

More specifically, the sensor provides the current position information of the sliding as the number of pulses, which is stored in the memory of the control means and the time to start the motor when there is an IMS operation command. Used as an adjusting factor for.

The IMS mode can be understood in the same manner as the BCM by looking at each of the modes as one electronic device.

For example, suppose you click on IMS on the mode save screen, adjust the sheet appropriately and save it in the mode called “user1”.

In this case, when the user1 mode is executed, when the user brings up the mode execution screen and clicks user1, the user gets the corresponding signal from the part corresponding to the entire memory and transmits it onto the CAN. Therefore, the IMS module receives this signal and imports the sensor signal in the corresponding mode stored therein, and then drives the motor of the corresponding area.

In this way, by combining various electrical equipment in consideration of the indoor and outdoor conditions and the driving conditions of the vehicle in one combination, it is possible to operate the combined electrical equipment at the same time, it is possible to increase the convenience of the driver.

As described above, according to the method for selecting an electronic device for automobiles according to the present invention, the driver selects a desired number of electronic devices in one mode in consideration of indoor and outdoor conditions and driving conditions of the vehicle, and designates the electronic devices in this mode simultaneously. By making it possible to operate, the driver's convenience can be improved, and since only one operation is required without several switch operations, it can contribute to safe driving.
