Abstract
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a technology related to vehicle lamps, and more particularly, to a technology capable of diagnosing an abnormality in lighting of a vehicle lamp and coping with failsafety.
1 is a block diagram of a lamp failure detection apparatus of a conventional vehicle.
As shown, the lamp failure detection device is a lamp 20 that is lit to operate in order to illuminate the front of the vehicle and to display the driving state of the own vehicle to the user and the surrounding vehicle around the vehicle, and a battery for supplying driving power to the lamp 20 10 and the lamp failure detection unit 30 and the lamp failure detection unit 30 connected in series between the lamp 20 and the battery 10 to detect the failure of the lamp 20, and the lamp receives the detection result. The controller 40 determines whether there is a failure of the 20, and a lamp failure display unit 50 that warns an external user of the failure of the lamp 20 according to a control signal of the controller 40. Here, the lamp 20 is turned on in accordance with the driver's direction operation signal to indicate the direction of travel of the own vehicle, and the brake lamp 22 which is lit according to the driver's brake operation to indicate whether the own vehicle is braked or not. And, headlights 23 for illuminating the front of the vehicle, and fog lights 24 for illuminating the front for safe driving when driving in the fog.
The failure detection unit 30 is connected to each lamp 20 in series and is composed of a current detection resistor (31, 32, 33, 34) provided to detect a voltage drop when the lamp 20 operates normally, When the 20 is in normal operation, a current flows in the lamp 20 to cause a voltage drop between both ends of the lamp failure detecting unit 30. When the lamp 20 is not operated due to a failure, the lamp 20 Since no current flows in the lamp failure detection unit 30, no voltage drop occurs, and a voltage equal to the voltage of the battery 10 is detected. This lamp failure detection device allows the driver to recognize the lamp failure. However, according to the related art, only the determination of a failure is possible, and no technical measures for follow-up according to the failure have been proposed.
An object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus and a method for determining the abnormality of the lighting of the vehicle lamp and enabling the lighting of the vehicle lamp.
Furthermore, an object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus and a method for achieving safety of vehicle operation through an emergency lamp for the rear of a vehicle when the lighting of the vehicle lamp is not completely possible.
Vehicle lamp failure safety providing apparatus according to an aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object is the first terminal and the second terminal for supplying battery power to the vehicle lamp, the first terminal or the second terminal through the A switching unit for supplying battery power to the vehicle lamp, and a control unit controlling the switching unit to switch to the second terminal when the battery power supply to the vehicle lamp is impossible through the first terminal. .
Furthermore, the vehicle lamp failure safety providing apparatus according to an additional aspect of the present invention further includes an emergency switching unit for supplying the battery power to the emergency lamp for the rear of the vehicle, the control unit is the battery power supply through the second terminal If not possible, the emergency switching unit is controlled to supply the battery power to the rear emergency lamp.
Furthermore, according to an additional aspect of the present invention, the controller outputs an error message when the battery power supply is impossible through at least one of the first terminal and the second terminal.
On the other hand, the vehicle lamp failure safety providing method according to an aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object is the step of determining whether the battery power supply to the vehicle lamp through the first terminal or the second terminal, and the impossible If it is determined that the switching to the terminal capable of supplying the battery power of the first terminal and the second terminal.
Furthermore, the vehicle lamp failure safety providing method according to an additional aspect of the present invention, if both the first terminal and the second terminal is a terminal that the battery power supply is impossible, switching to supply the battery power to the emergency lamp for the rear of the vehicle It further comprises the step of controlling.
The present invention not only diagnoses the failure of the vehicle lamp but also creates the effect of enabling the lighting of the vehicle lamp. Furthermore, the present invention creates the effect of enabling safe driving by controlling the lighting of the rear emergency lamp even if the lighting of the vehicle lamp is completely impossible.
1 is a block diagram of a vehicle lamp failure safety providing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.
2 is a flowchart illustrating a vehicle lamp failure safety providing method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The foregoing and further aspects of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of preferred embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail to enable those skilled in the art to easily understand and reproduce the present invention.
