Abstract

A rollover damage reducing system for a convertible vehicle is provided to reduce damage to occupants when the convertible vehicle is rolled over with a vehicle roof opened. An inflator type rollover lift is mounted on a trunk lid, and connected to a rollover sensing ECU(30) or an air bag control unit. The rollover lift operates through the rollover sensing ECU or the air bag control unit in case of rollover, so that a trunk lid is opened to the maximum and the space for occupation of passengers is expanded.

It is to do it.

본 발명은 상기 목적을 달성하기 위하여 트렁크 리드에 인플레이터 타입의 롤오버용 리프터를 설치하고, 롤오버 센싱 ECU에서 롤오버를 감지하는 경우 롤오버용 리프터를 작동시켜 트렁크를 최대 개방상태로 지지함으로써 운전자를 포함한 승객이 위치할 수 있는 공간을 확장할 수 있도록 하는 것을 특징으로 하며, 이하 그 구체적인 기술내용을 첨부도면에 의거하여 더욱 자세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an inflator-type rollover lifter to the trunk lid, and when the rollover sensing ECU detects a rollover, the rollover lifter is operated to support the trunk in the maximum open state. It is characterized in that it is possible to expand the space that can be located, and will be described in more detail on the basis of the following detailed description of the accompanying drawings.

즉, 도 1에는 본 발명의 한 실시예의 구성도가 도시되어 있고, 도 2에는 동 실시예의 컨버터블 차량 전복 상태도가 도시되어 있으며, 도 3에는 동 실시예의 롤오버용 리프터 설치상태도가 도시되어 있는 바, 본 발명의 컨버터블 차량의 롤오버 상해 저감 시스템은 트렁크 리드(10)에 인플레이터 타입의 롤오버용 리프터(20)를 설치하고, 이 롤오버용 리프터(20)를 롤오버 센싱 ECU(30) 또는 에어백 콘트롤 유니트(40;ACU)에 접속하여 롤오버가 발생된 경우 롤오버 센싱 ECU(30) 또는 에어백 콘트롤 유니트(40;ACU)를 통해 롤오버용 리프터(20)를 작동시켜 트렁크 리드(10)를 최대 개방상태로 지지함으로써 운전자를 포함한 승객이 위치할 수 있는 공간을 확장할 수 있도록 하여서 되는 것이다.That is, FIG. 1 shows a configuration diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 shows a convertible vehicle rollover state diagram of the embodiment, and FIG. 3 shows a rollover lifter installation state diagram of the embodiment. In the rollover injury reduction system of the convertible vehicle of the present invention, an inflator type rollover lifter 20 is installed in the trunk lid 10, and the rollover lifter 20 is installed in the rollover sensing ECU 30 or the airbag control unit 40. When rollover occurs by connecting to the ACU, the rollover lifter 20 is operated by the rollover sensing ECU 30 or the airbag control unit 40 (ACU) to support the trunk lid 10 in the maximum open state. It is to be able to expand the space where passengers can be located, including.

도시된 실시예에서 롤오버 센싱 ECU(30)는 가속도센서(31)와 각도센서(32)를 통해 롤오버를 감지할 수 있도록 한 형태를 갖으며, 아울러 트렁크 리프팅과 함께 차량의 상단 후방에 돌출 가능하게 장착된 롤바(50)를 팝업시킬 수 있도록 한 형태를 갖는다.In the illustrated embodiment, the rollover sensing ECU 30 is configured to detect the rollover through the acceleration sensor 31 and the angle sensor 32, and also protrudes to the rear of the top of the vehicle together with the trunk lifting. It has a shape to pop up the mounted roll bar 50.

도면부호중 미설명부호 60은 일반적인 트렁크 리드 개폐를 위한 리프터, 61은 링크, 21은 리드선이다. Reference numeral 60 in the drawings denotes a lifter for opening and closing a general trunk lead, 61 a link, and 21 a lead wire.

상기와 같이 구성된 본 발명에 있어서는 루프를 개방한 상태에서 주행하던 도중 사고를 당해 롤오버가 발생되면 롤오버 센싱 ECU(30) 또는 에어백 콘트롤 유니트(40;ACU)를 통해 롤오버를 감지하여 인플레이터 타입의 롤오버용 리프터(20)를 작동시키게 되며, 롤오버용 리프터(20)가 작동되면 트렁크 리드(10)가 최대 개방한 상태로 지지되므로 도 2와 같이 운전자를 포함한 승객이 위치할 수 있는 공간을 보 다 크게 확보할 수 있게 되어 승객의 상해를 저감할 수 있게 된다.In the present invention configured as described above, if the rollover occurs while driving while the loop is open, the rollover is sensed through the rollover sensing ECU 30 or the airbag control unit 40 (ACU) for inflator type rollover. The lifter 20 is operated, and when the rollover lifter 20 is operated, the trunk lid 10 is supported in the maximum open state, thereby securing a larger space in which a passenger including a driver can be positioned as shown in FIG. 2.
