자동차 측조등 제어 장치 및 방법{Apparatus and method for controlling assistant lamp for cars}Apparatus and method for controlling assistant lamp for cars}

본 발명은 자동차에 관한 것으로서, 더욱 상세하게는 자동차의 좌우측에 설치되는 측조등을 제어하는 자동차 측조등 제어 장치 및 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a vehicle, and more particularly, to a vehicle headlight control apparatus and method for controlling the sidelights installed on the left and right sides of the vehicle.

종래 차량의 전방에 장착된 전조등 장치는 자동차 전방을 향하여 그 광이 조사되도록 장착된 전조등과, 전조등의 배광이 자동차의 전방을 향하도록 설치되는 리플렉터를 구비한다. 여기서, 전조등은 운전자의 온/오프 스위치 조작에 따라 제어된다. Conventionally, a headlight device mounted on the front of a vehicle includes a headlight mounted so that the light is irradiated toward the front of the vehicle, and a reflector installed so that light distribution of the headlight is directed toward the front of the vehicle. Here, the headlights are controlled according to the on / off switch operation of the driver.

그러나, 상기와 같이 전조등이 고정되어 있는 경우 교차로나 산길 같은 커브길에서 차량 회전 시 조향 범위가 이를 커버하지 못함으로 인하여 운전자 시야확보가 용이하지 못해 사고 가능성이 증대된다는 문제점이 있다.However, when the headlights are fixed as described above, the steering range does not cover when the vehicle is rotated on a curved road such as an intersection or a mountain road, so that the driver's field of view is not easily secured, thereby increasing the possibility of an accident.

상기와 같은 문제점을 보완하고자 리플렉터와 연결된 모터를 장착하고 차량의 회전 등에 따라 리플렉터를 좌우로 회전시킴으로써 운전자가 보다 용이하게 시 야를 확보할 수 있도록 하는 전조등 장치가 개발되었다.In order to compensate for the above problems, a headlamp device has been developed that allows a driver to easily secure a field of view by mounting a motor connected to the reflector and rotating the reflector left and right according to the rotation of the vehicle.

더욱이, 전조등의 좌우측에 설치되어 전조등의 조향범위를 벗어난 영역을 그 조향방향으로 하도록 측조등이 설치되었다.In addition, side lights are provided on the left and right sides of the headlamps so that the area outside the steering range of the headlamps is in the steering direction.

따라서, 상기한 전조등과 측조등을 자동차의 주행시 선택적으로 온/오프시킴으로써 주행시 시야확보가 유리하도록 하였다.Therefore, the headlight and the sidelight are selectively turned on and off when the vehicle is driven, so that the visibility of the vehicle is secured.

In this case, the lighting of the headlight turns on before reaching the headlight directing position, which causes an optical illusion to the driver and glare to the opposing vehicle.

본 발명은 전술한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 창안된 것으로서, 전조등의 지향각도와 자동차의 속도에 따라 측조등 온/오프를 제어하는 자동차 측조등 제어 장치 및 방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to improve the above-described problems, and an object thereof is to provide a vehicle headlight control apparatus and method for controlling the headlight on / off according to the heading angle of the headlight and the speed of the vehicle.

이하에서는 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 자동차 측조등 제어 장치 및 방법을 첨부된 도면들을 참조하여 상세하게 설명한다.Hereinafter, an apparatus and method for controlling a vehicle headlight according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 1 은 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 자동차 측조등 제어 장치의 블럭 구성도이 고, 도 2 는 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 측조등 온/오프 구간을 나타낸 그래프이다.1 is a block diagram of an apparatus for controlling a vehicle headlight according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a graph showing an on / off section of a vehicle headlight according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

본 발명의 실시예에 따른 자동차 측조등 제어 장치는 차속 감지부(10), 전조등 지향각도 감지부(20), 전조등 고장 감지부(30), 제어부(40) 및 측조등(60)을 구비한다.Vehicle headlight control apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a vehicle speed detection unit 10, the headlight directivity angle detection unit 20, the headlight failure detection unit 30, the control unit 40 and the side light 60. .

차속 감지부(10)는 자동차 주행시 차속 즉, 자동차의 주행 속도를 감지한다. 여기서, 차속은 GPS(Global Postioning System)로부터 자동차의 속도를 입력받을 수도 있다.The vehicle speed detector 10 detects a vehicle speed, that is, a driving speed of the vehicle, while driving the vehicle. Here, the vehicle speed may receive the speed of the vehicle from the GPS (Global Postioning System).

전조등 지향각도 감지부(20)는 전조등의 지향각도를 감지한다. 전조등은 자동차의 전방을 향해 그 광이 조사되도록 장착되어 그 지향 방향을 상하좌우로 회전 가능하도록 설치된다. 이러한 전조등은 모터의 구동에 의하여 회전된다. 따라서, 전조등 지향각도 감지부(20)는 모터의 구동에 의해 전조등이 회전되는 경우, 그 회전에 의한 지향 각도를 감지하게 된다. The headlight directing angle detector 20 detects the heading angle of the headlight. The headlamp is mounted so that the light is irradiated toward the front of the vehicle, and the headlamp is installed to be rotatable in a vertical direction. This headlamp is rotated by the driving of the motor. Therefore, when the headlight is rotated by the driving of the motor, the headlight directivity angle detection unit 20 detects the directivity angle due to the rotation.

전조등 고장 감지부(30)는 전조등의 온/오프 불량과 같은 고장 여부를 감지한다.The headlight failure detection unit 30 detects whether a failure such as on / off failure of the headlight.

측조등(60)은 전조등의 좌우측에 설치되어 전조등의 조향범위를 벗어난 영역에 광을 조사하여 전조등에 의해 시야를 확보할 수 없는 영역에 대해서도 시야를 확보할 수 있도록 한다.The side light 60 is installed on the left and right sides of the headlight to irradiate light to an area outside the steering range of the headlight so as to secure the field of view even in an area where the field of view cannot be secured by the headlight.

제어부(40)는 전조등 고장 감지부(30)를 통해 전조등의 고장 여부를 감지하여 전조등이 고장이 발생되면, 측조등(60)을 온시킨다.The control unit 40 detects whether the headlight is broken through the headlight failure detecting unit 30, and turns on the sidelight 60 when the headlight is broken.

한편, 전조등에 고장이 없으면, 현재 자동차의 차속에 따라 측조등(60) 점등 및 소등을 위한 점등값과 소등값을 룩업테이블을 참조하여 결정하고, 이를 바탕으로 하여 측조등(60)을 점등 또는 소등한다.On the other hand, if the headlight is not broken, the lighting value and the lighting value for turning on and off the lighting lamp 60 are determined according to the current vehicle speed by referring to the lookup table, and based on the lighting, the lighting lamp 60 is turned on or off. Turn off

도 2 는 전조등 지향각도와 차속에 따른 측조등(60)의 점등 및 소등 구간을도시한 것이다.2 shows the lighting and turning off sections of the side lights 60 according to the headlight heading angle and the vehicle speed.

도 2 를 참조하면, 전조등 지향각도가 증가하여 a에서 a'의 경계선 즉, 측조등 점등선을 초과할 경우 측조등(60)이 온되며, 지향각도가 감소하여 b에서 b'의 경계선 즉, 측조등 소등선을 초과할 경우 측조등(60)이 오프된다.Referring to FIG. 2, when the headlight directivity angle increases and exceeds the boundary line of a to a ', that is, the sidelight lighting line, the side light 60 is turned on, and the directivity angle decreases so that the boundary line of b to b', When the side light exceeds the lights out, the side light 60 is turned off.

또한, 차속이 점등속도(c) 이하일 경우 측조등 온 조건이 되고, 소등속도(c') 이상일 경우 측조등 오프 조건이 된다.In addition, when the vehicle speed is less than the lighting speed (c), it becomes a condition for turning on the lights, and when the vehicle speed is more than the extinguishing speed (c '), the condition for turning off the lights.

따라서, 도 2 에 도시된 바와 같이 룩업테이블은 측조등 온 구간과 오프 구간이 형성된다. 아울러, 측조등 온 구간과 측조등 오프 구간 사이에는 히스테리시스 구간을 설정하여 소정 조건에서 측조등 온/오프를 유지하도록 한다.Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, the lookup table includes a side lighting on section and an off section. In addition, a hysteresis section may be set between the side light on section and the side light off section to maintain the side light on / off under a predetermined condition.

여기서, 측조등 점등선과 측조등 소등선은 지향각도와 차속에 따른 측조등 점등값과 측조등 소등값을 연결한 선이다.Here, the side light lighting line and the side light lighting line is a line connecting the side light lighting value and the side light lighting value according to the direction angle and the vehicle speed.

도 3 은 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 자동차 측조등 제어 방법의 순서도이다.3 is a flow chart of a vehicle headlight control method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

본 발명의 실시예에 따른 자동차 측조등 제어 방법은 도 3 에 도시된 바와 같이, 제어부(40)는 자동차 주행시 전조등 고장 감지부(30)를 통해 전조등의 고장 여부를 판단(S10)한다.In the vehicle headlight control method according to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3, the controller 40 determines whether the headlight is broken through the headlight failure detecting unit 30 while driving the vehicle (S10).

판단 결과, 제어부(30)는 전조등이 고장인 것으로 판단되면, 측조등(60)을 온시킨다(S50).As a result of the determination, if it is determined that the headlight is broken, the control unit 30 turns on the sidelight 60 (S50).

반면에, 전조등이 정상인 것으로 판단되면, 룩업 테이블을 참조하여 차속 감지부(10)로부터 입력된 차속에 따른 측조등(60)의 점등값과 소등값을 결정(S20)한다.On the other hand, when the headlight is determined to be normal, the lighting value and the extinguishing value of the side light 60 according to the vehicle speed input from the vehicle speed detecting unit 10 are determined with reference to the lookup table (S20).

이 경우, 차속이 점등속도 이하이면, 전조등 지향각도 감지부(20)로부터 입력된 지향각도가 점등값을 초과하는 지를 판단(S40)한다.In this case, if the vehicle speed is less than the lighting speed, it is determined whether the directivity angle input from the headlight directivity angle detection unit 20 exceeds the lighting value (S40).

판단 결과, 지향각도가 점등값을 초과하면, 측조등(60)을 온시킨다(S50). 즉, 차속이 점등속도 이하이고, 지향각도가 점등값을 초과하면 측조등(60)을 온시킨다.As a result of determination, when the directivity angle exceeds the lighting value, the side lamp 60 is turned on (S50). That is, when the vehicle speed is equal to or lower than the lighting speed and the direction angle exceeds the lighting value, the side lamp 60 is turned on.

한편, 전조등 지향각도 감지부(20)로부터 입력된 지향각도가 점등값을 초과하는 지를 판단(S40)하여 지향각도가 점등값 이하이면, 지향각도가 소등값 미만인 지를 판단(S60)한다.On the other hand, it is determined whether the directivity angle input from the headlight directivity angle detection unit 20 exceeds the lighting value (S40). If the directivity angle is less than the lighting value, it is determined whether the directivity angle is less than the extinction value (S60).

판단 결과, 지향각도가 소등값 미만이면, 측조등(60)을 오프시킨다(S80). 즉, 현재 차속이 점등속도 이하이고, 지향각도가 소등값 미만이면, 측조등(60)을 오프시킨다.As a result of the determination, when the directivity angle is less than the extinction value, the side light 60 is turned off (S80). That is, when the current vehicle speed is equal to or lower than the lighting speed and the directivity angle is less than the extinction value, the side light 60 is turned off.

한편, 차속이 점등속도 이하인지를 판단(S30)하여 차속이 점등속도를 초과하면, 차속이 소등속도 이상인 지를 판단하여 소등속도 이상이면 측조등(60)을 오프시킨다. 즉, 차속이 점등속도를 초과하고 소등속도 이상이면 측조등(60)을 오프시킨다.On the other hand, it is determined whether the vehicle speed is less than the lighting speed (S30), and if the vehicle speed exceeds the lighting speed, it is determined whether the vehicle speed is more than the unlit speed, and if it is more than the unlit speed, the side light 60 is turned off. That is, when the vehicle speed exceeds the lighting speed and is more than the extinguishing speed, the side lamp 60 is turned off.

즉, 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 자동차 측조등 제어 방법은 차속과 지향각도에 따라 룩업 테이블을 참조하여 측조등(60)의 온/오프를 제어한다.That is, the vehicle headlight control method according to the embodiment of the present invention controls the on / off of the headlight 60 with reference to the lookup table according to the vehicle speed and the direction angle.

본 발명은 도면에 도시된 실시예를 참고로 하여 설명되었으나, 이는 예시적인 것에 불과하며 당해 기술이 속하는 기술분야에 통상의 지식을 가진 자라면 이로부터 다양한 변형 및 균등한 타 실시예가 가능하다는 점을 이해할 것이다. 따라서, 본 발명의 진정한 기술적 보호범위는 특허청구범위에 의하여 정해져야할 것이다.Although the present invention has been described with reference to the embodiments illustrated in the drawings, it is merely exemplary and various modifications and equivalent other embodiments are possible to those skilled in the art. I will understand. Therefore, the true technical protection scope of the present invention will be defined by the claims.
