- the invention relates to an automatic cleaning control equipment 'of a plate surface that may be varied soiling conditions, and a method for implementation of such equipment.
- the present invention relates to the field of automobile cleaning and washing installations, as well as to the control and automatic systems for managing such surface automatic machines, in particular the state of cleanliness of windows and windshields of vehicle installations.
- This controller comprises a light source and a photoreceptor disposed near the windshield, a first and a second comparator • an operational block and a transmission block to control windshield wiper system.
- This regulator records the amount of light flux passing through the windshield and compares the photoreceptor output signal with a standard signal. In the event that the photoreceptor output signal remains below the standard signal for a sufficient time, the wiper control system is triggered.
- Such a regulator can only detect the presence of water and. does not provide any information on the degree of soiling of the surface to. clean.
- its installation is complex. '

- the invention aims, on the contrary, to provide such an adaptation with a high level of performance, by optimizing at all times the cleaning regime to the type and degree of soiling of the surface to be cleaned, and by integrating over time the identification of the nature and intensity of soiling.
- the subject of the invention is an automatic control equipment for cleaning a plate surface having various states of soiling, comprising at least one light source, an opaque soil channel, an aqueous soil channel and at least an ambient light photoreceptor.
- Each dirt channel includes at least one photoreceptor with independent photosensitive element.

- the aqueous dirt photoreceptors are placed at the vertices of a polygon whose emitting source is arranged in the polygon;
- the photoreceptors and the emitting source or sources are linked to a printed circuit support, for example made of epoxy, placed facing the internal surface of the plate to be monitored.
- the term "plate” refers indifferently to the windshield, to the windows or to the casings of lighting modules of a motor vehicle. Driving a vehicle is said to be comfortable when it is possible to reestablish correct vision or lighting through the plate, in a time less than a determined safety period, and when changes in wiping rate are erratic or not adapted to circumstances are avoided.

- a detection algorithm relative differences between, on the one hand, the values of the current samples of each detection of each channel and, on the other hand, values of samples of the same detection stored in the short term, and respectively at least one floating reference, which may be previous values, are determined relative to the values of the current samples to respectively form two differential deviations. At least one of these deviations is compared to at least a predetermined threshold.
- the operating modes for the wiper blades are defined by the cadence of the sweep cycles, namely conventionally: the fixed stop (zero cadence), the intermittent periodic sweep (low cadence), the slow speed sweep ( medium speed), scanning at high speed (high speed); and for washing, the number of scanning cycles during which the washing liquid is sprayed onto the plate, for example two to five scanning cycles.
- a measurement of the ambient light level being carried out and stored at the same rate as that of the measurements of the modulated light levels of each channel, the results of the comparison of the absolute values of the relative deviations in modulated light are only taken into account. account only if the variation in the ambient light level at the same instant is less than a determined threshold.
- the measurement of ambient light level thus makes it possible to validate the current detection signals and therefore the deviations observed.
- at least four signals are read per channel and are validated by measuring the level of ambient light.
- the detection of aqueous soiling is a function of the operating state of the wipers:.
- the detection is recorded if the level detected in the channel exceeds the reference value by a value greater than a predetermined threshold value

- the aqueous soiling channel if the detection level is higher than the reference by a value exceeding a predetermined threshold value, when such a deviation is found at least over a predetermined number of cycles of a detection or for a predetermined number of detections;
- the absolute values of short-term and / or longer-term relative deviations between the samples of modulated light levels are compared with at least a predetermined threshold, the short-term difference being determined between l current sample and a previous sample close in time, for example the sample immediately previous, and the longer term difference being determined between the current sample and a previous sample more distant in time.
- the absolute values of the relative deviations are determined between, on the one hand, the current sample and, on the other hand, an earlier sample . reconciled over time and respectively a floating reference value.
- a constant current signal level over a predetermined number of samples, the constancy of which is periodically checked and updated, can advantageously constitute a floating reference level.
- the measurements of modulated light carried out are processed in a four-branch algorithm corresponding to the following phases or events of a scanning cycle:
- the determination of the absolute values of the differences between the samples of modulated light using one of the preceding determination examples is also carried out during the working phase.
- the wiping mode is chosen as a function of the request elaborated by the detection algorithm, and as a function of the data relating to the current regime by an analysis of a history of accumulation over a given period of the number of zones having identified soiling, opaque or aqueous, in order to control the transitions from the current cleaning mode to the required mode when the required cleaning mode corresponds to a different, for example lower, wiping rate.

- this phase begins just after the "end of cycle” event, identified for example by a position sensor, and ends just before the "start of cycle” event, separated from the end of cycle event by a . time interval predetermined or determined by the position sensor. In the absence of movement, this phase corresponds to the stop.
- the equipment is placed in a suitable strategic location, in particular in the high position (central, left or right) in the case of a windshield.
- a modulated light flow is emitted by each source 1 and guided by the masks 20 in the direction of the internal face 10a of the windshield 10 whose external face 10b is to be monitored.
- the distance between each aqueous soiling LED and the surrounding photodetectors 2 and the dimensions of the masks are determined, as a function of the dimensions of the optical components and of the thickness of the windshield, to correspond to angles of retroreflection of the light path, limited by the masks 20, comprised between extreme radii R1 and R2.
- N'N to the windscreen of angles A and B respectively between approximately 25 and 40 degrees.
- the light reflected by the external face 10b at each detection zone, whether or not carrying soil S, is received independently by each photosensitive face of the photoreceptors 2.
- the acquisition time of the level of light modulated on each zone is about 1- ms.
- the equipment operates in visible light and the phptoreceptors are coupled to interference network filters.
- the distance between the LED 1 a, dedicated to the detection of opaque soiling, and the surrounding photodetector 2a, as well as the dimensions of the mask 20a, are determined, according to the dimensions of the optical components and. of the thickness of the windshield, to form rays R3 backscattered from rays R by the external face 10b, as shown in dotted lines.
- These rays come from an incident beam between extreme rays R1 a and R2a, which form with the normal N'N at the windshield emission angles C and D respectively between approximately 30 and 55 degrees before refraction on the internal face 10a of the windshield, and between approximately 35 and 60 degrees after refraction on this face.
- the photodetectors 2 are connected to the multiplexer block to form a channel dedicated more particularly, but not exclusively, to the detection of aqueous soiling, and the photodetector 2a forms the channel for opaque soiling.

- the multiplexer block 3 successively selects the signals received simultaneously from the photoreceptors to supply a signal representing each detection.
- the signals are processed by synchronous demodulation and amplification, to be converted into voltage levels corresponding to the amplitude of the modulated light flux coming from each detection zone.
- the processing unit 4 is of converter type known to those skilled in the art.
- microcontroller 5 which chooses the optimal operating regime of the cleaning device 6, as a function of detection and decision algorithms, an example of which is described below, by a microprocessor associated with means of 'sampling,' storage and comparison integrated into the microcontroller.
- the control method is implemented on the basis of the data coming from block 4 and the data on the current phase of the cleaning cycle provided by the device 6.
- the micro-controller also controls the order of the light sources through 'of the processing unit 4 in order to modulate the intensity of the sources.
- an additional photoreceptor 2b is provided to form an ambient light channel from a signal representative of the ambient light.
- the ambient light coming from a solid angle limited by the rays R4, is diffused through a translucent diffusing film 8, picked up by the photoreceptor 2b, which applies a level value to the microcontroller by amplification of the signal operated by the electronic processing unit 4.
- each dirt detection zone (i) The modulated light reflected or scattered by the surface to be cleaned, then detected in each dirt detection zone (i), is represented at the current time "n" by a set of sampled amplitude levels A ⁇ (1) , A ⁇ (2), ..., A ⁇ (i), each sample being itself the result of the accumulation in the microcontroller of a determined number of successive elementary values of the level, of two values in the example of realization. In other examples, this number can be equal to 3 or 4, and the values of elementary levels can be either cumulated or averaged.
- ⁇ ⁇ (i) (A ⁇ (i) - A ⁇ . 1 (i)) / A n (i) (1).
- ⁇ ' ⁇ (i) (A ⁇ (i) - A n . M (i)) / A n (i), with n>m> 2 (2)
- the primary deviation ⁇ n (i) makes it possible to determine the type of soiling on the face to be monitored at the time of recording the current amplitude level, aqueous soiling, such as drops of water, melted snow, or opaque soiling, such as snow or insect impacts.
- the secondary deviation ⁇ 'n (i) makes it possible to follow the appearance of soiling in slow dynamic evolution, for example water droplets or, more particularly, opaque soiling in formation, such as mud or a layer of dust. . These deviations are taken into account by the algorithms described below.
- an amplitude sample of the ambient light is stored at all times in the microcontroller. Its relative variation ⁇ 0 n is determined from the current amplitude level A0 n and the amplitude level recorded last A0 ⁇ . ⁇ from the following relation:
- the samples of the signals coming from the modulated light channels are ignored when the relative variation ⁇ ⁇ (i) is greater than a ceiling value of variation of ambient light ⁇ A, taken equal to 10% in the exemplary embodiment. Taking this relative variation into account makes it possible to better eliminate the disturbances in the control of the cleaning device, for example an untimely triggering of the scanning, linked to periodic or random variations in ambient light. These disturbances appear for example by driving the vehicle on a road lined with trees, or when passing through a tunnel.
- the determinations are carried out simultaneously for each photoreception zone, and cyclically at a rapid rate of 14 ms in the exemplary embodiment, so that the state of each channel is considered to be continuously analyzed.
- the analysis is based on the following data comparisons: - if the absolute values of the deviations are. value less than or equal to threshold values respectively, no soiling is recorded as appearing on the monitored face; - if the absolute values of the deviations are respectively greater than these threshold values for at least one of the eight zones of the aqueous soiling channel, rain, slush, ice or snow soiling is recorded as present on this face;
- an opaque soiling is recorded if the deviations are greater than the threshold values, for at least two zones of the aqueous soil channel or for at least three measuring cycles;
- the type and degree of soiling in the identified type are determined by the number of zones whose absolute values of the deviations ⁇ n (i) and ⁇ 'n (i) are recorded as respectively greater than the threshold values of the corresponding soiling ; - Depending on the type and degree of so determined soiling, an operating regime of the cleaning device to remove this soiling is triggered.
- step 101 detection of the current regime: the analysis begins only if the system is in the rest phase;
- step 102 the analysis is triggered in this example only if the relative level of ambient light remains below the ceiling value ( ⁇
- step 104 determination of the number of zones k1 for which the deviations ⁇ and ⁇ ', determined in step 103, are greater than one of the rain thresholds, either ⁇ p or ⁇ 'p;
- step 107 determination of the number of zones k2 for which the deviations ⁇ and ⁇ 'are greater than the mud thresholds ⁇ b or ⁇ 'b;
- step 109 if mud soiling is recorded for more than one zone (k2> 2), the type of soiling "mud” is recorded, and the first wiping speed PV as well as a sequence of consecutive washing cycles, 3 cycles in the embodiment, are triggered;
- step 110 determination of the number of zones k3 for which the deviations ⁇ or ⁇ 'are greater than the snow thresholds ⁇ e or ⁇ 'e;
- step 111 if a snow stain is recorded for at least one channel (k3> 1), the type of stain "snow" is recorded, and the first wiping speed PV is triggered or maintained (step 111 ');
- step 112 determination of the number of zones k4 of the aqueous soil channel or of the number of detection cycles, for which the deviation ⁇ or ⁇ 'is greater than an opaque soil threshold value ⁇ s or ⁇ 's; - in decisional step 113: if an opaque soiling is recorded on at least two zones or on at least three cycles, the type of “opaque” soiling is recorded and the speed GV is triggered, as well as a sequence of cycles of consecutive washing, 5 cycles in the embodiment (step 113 ');
- step 114 recording of an opaque soiling and triggering of a washing cycle, when the number k5 of consecutive levels on the opaque soiling channel greater than a predetermined threshold value is greater than two, for more than one cycle scan (steps 115 and 1 13 ').
- additional steps are included in the algorithm for determining the value of the rank m involved in the value of the secondary difference ⁇ 'as a function of the cleaning regime or of the variation of the ambient light, in order to increase the reliability of the decision.
- This threshold is chosen to take account of the quantification noise of the processing member and the determined duration takes different values depending on whether the wiping system is stopped or in motion, for example 3 to 15 seconds respectively and 0.2 to 0.4 seconds.
- the values of the current samples and the sample values stored last are compared with values of the sample values corresponding to a floating reference state, the ambient light measurements. and modulated light being effected when the scanning system is in the working phase.
- the brush drive motor operates according to these 4 speeds and in accordance with requests to change the operating speed. These changes obey algorithms allowing a rapid increase in cadence, for example in the case of an impromptu splash, and a controlled and gradual descent in cadence, to ensure the driving comfort of the user.
- the memories of the microcontroller contain the basic variables used in these algorithms and incremented as follows: - "Current operating mode": scanning regime in force and effective;
- the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and shown. It is possible to determine the primary and secondary deviations from the previous values in the short, long term or the floating reference sample. To increase the dynamics of the command, it is possible to take into account values of interpolated amplitude levels corresponding to virtual channels arranged between two real channels. Furthermore, the geometry of the arrangement of these channels can be. varied: hexagonal pattern or bar arrangements.
- the photoreceptors and the light emitting diodes can be placed on supports or integrated into them, for example on epoxy supports. In addition, the diodes and the photoreceptors can be exchanged, keeping the same sensitivity, the adaptation of the appropriate electronic processing being within the reach of those skilled in the art.
