At this time, if the webbing speed detected by the webbing speed detection unit is equal to or higher than the predetermined speed, the motor speed is increased by the speed increase correction unit, and the rotation speed on the motor side quickly becomes the rotation speed on the belt reel side. It can be approached. As a result, immediately after the webbing is removed by the occupant, the motor is driven to rotate in the winding direction by the basic winding control unit, and the clutch is brought into the connected state. At this time, when the webbing speed is equal to or higher than the predetermined speed. Since the motor speed is increased by the speed increase correction unit so that the motor side rotation speed can be brought close to the belt reel side rotation speed at an early stage, the generation of noise due to slippage between the clutch components is suppressed. Meanwhile, the webbing can be quickly wound.
- the webbing winding speed is not increased in the latter stage of the webbing winding.

- the seat belt device 1 winds the webbing 5 by the electric motor 10 in an emergency, when the behavior change of the vehicle is large, or when the webbing 5 is wound and stored in the retractor 4.
- the webbing 5 is wound around a belt reel 12 rotatably supported by a casing (not shown). Furthermore, the shaft of the belt reel 12 protrudes from one end side of the casing.
- the shaft of the belt reel 12 is connected to the rotating shaft 10 a of the motor 10 via a power transmission mechanism 13 so as to be interlocked.
- the power transmission mechanism 13 decelerates the rotation of the motor 10 and transmits it to the belt reel 12.
- the retractor 4 is provided with a winding spring 50 that biases the belt reel 12 in the webbing winding direction. Therefore, in a state where the belt reel 12 and the motor 10 are separated by a clutch 20 described later, the urging force in the webbing winding direction by the winding spring 50 acts on the belt reel 12.
- the retractor 4 is provided with a rotation sensor 11 (position detection unit) that detects the rotation position of the belt reel 12.
- the rotation sensor 11 includes, for example, a magnetic disk in which different magnetic poles are alternately magnetized along the circumferential direction and rotates integrally with the belt reel 12, and a pair disposed in the vicinity of the outer peripheral edge of the magnetic disk.
- a sensor circuit for processing a detection signal of the Hall element is output to the controller 21.
- the pulse signal input from the sensor circuit to the controller 21 according to the rotation of the belt reel 12 is used to detect the rotation amount, rotation speed, rotation direction, and the like of the belt reel 12.
- the controller 21 detects the amount of rotation of the belt reel 12 (the winding / drawing length of the webbing 5) by counting the pulse signals. Further, the controller 21 calculates the rotation speed (winding / drawing speed of the webbing 5) of the belt reel 12 by calculating the changing speed (frequency) of the pulse signal. Furthermore, the controller 21 detects the rotation direction of the belt reel 12 by comparing the rising edges of the waveforms of both pulse signals.
- the rotation sensor 11 and a part of the function of the controller 21 constitute a webbing speed detection unit and a winding length detection unit.
- 3 to 5 are diagrams showing a specific configuration of the power transmission mechanism 13.
- a sun gear 14 is integrally coupled to an external tooth 15 for driving input, and a carrier 17 that supports a plurality of planetary gears 16 is coupled to the shaft of the belt reel 12.
- a plurality of ratchet teeth 19 are formed on the outer peripheral side of the ring gear 18 meshed with the planetary gear 16, and these ratchet teeth 19 constitute a part of the clutch 20.
- the clutch 20 appropriately connects and disconnects the power transmission system between the motor 10 and the belt reel 12 by controlling the driving force of the motor 10 by the controller 21.
- the motor-side power transmission system 22 of the power transmission mechanism 13 is capable of rotating coaxially and integrally with the first connect gear 23 having a small diameter that is always meshed with the external teeth 15 that are integral with the sun gear 14.
- a second connecting gear 24 having a large diameter, a first idler gear 26 that is between the second connecting gear 24 and the motor gear 25 (integrated with the rotating shaft 10a of the motor 10) and is always meshed so that power can be transmitted;
- an idler gear 27 The driving force in the forward rotation direction of the motor 10 is transmitted to the second connect gear 24 and the first connect gear 23 through each gear (the motor gear 25, the second idler gear 27, and the first idler gear 26) as indicated by solid arrows in FIG.
- the driving force in the forward rotation direction of the motor 10 rotates the belt reel 12 in the direction in which the webbing 5 is pulled.
- the driving force transmitted from the sun gear 14 to the planetary gear 16 is all transmitted to the carrier 17 side as described above when the ring gear 18 is fixed.
- the driving force is not transmitted to the carrier 17 side because the ring gear 18 idles due to the rotation of the planetary gear 16.
- the clutch 20 controls on / off the transmission of the motor driving force to the belt reel 12 (carrier 17) by controlling the locking and unlocking of the rotation of the ring gear 18.
- the clutch 20 is rotatably supported by a casing (not shown), and can be engaged with a pawl 29 having a locking claw 28 at the tip, a clutch spring 30 for operating the pawl 29, and a locking claw 28 of the pawl 29. And the ratchet teeth 19 of the ring gear 14.

- the front end of the clutch spring 30 extends in the direction of the pawl 29 and is configured to engage with the operation window 32 of the pawl 29.
- the curved portion 31 of the clutch spring 30 is engaged with the shaft portion of the first connect gear 23 by friction. Therefore, when a torque greater than the set value is applied between the curved portion 31 of the clutch spring 30 and the first connect gear 23, the torque causes slippage between the curved portion 31 of the clutch spring 30 and the first connect gear 23.
- the ring gear 18 behaves differently depending on the relative rotation state with respect to the gear 17. That is, when the rotational speed of the sun gear 14 (motor 10 side) in the forward rotation direction is higher than the rotational speed of the carrier 17 (belt reel 12 side), the rotational torque of the sun gear 14 causes the ring gear 18 to lock the pawl 29. It acts in the direction locked by the claw 28.
- the ring gear 18 receives a force to rotate in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the carrier 17, and the latching claw 28 meshes with the ratchet teeth 19 and the rotation is stopped.
- the rotational speed of the carrier 17 (belt reel 12 side) in the forward rotation direction is higher than the rotational speed of the sun gear 14 (motor 10 side)
- the rotational torque of the carrier 17 causes the ring gear 18 to lock the pawl 29. It acts in the direction of sliding with respect to the nail 28.
- the locking pawl 28 of the pawl 29 slides on the slope of the ratchet teeth 19 of the ring gear 18 and intermittently collides with the tooth groove.
- the pawl 29 and the ring gear 18 constitute a component that allows free rotation on the belt reel 12 side by mutual sliding when the clutch 20 is in the connected state.

- a detection unit) and a current sensor 40 that detects a current supplied to the motor 10 are connected to each other.
- Sensors for detecting a vehicle state such as a vehicle speed sensor 44 are connected.
- the controller 21 rotates the motor 10 in the forward rotation direction (winding direction) when the tongue plate 8 is removed from the buckle 9 and the detection signal of the buckle switch 39 is switched from ON to OFF.
- the controller 21 calculates the belt calculated based on the detection signal of the rotation sensor 11 after the detection signal of the basic winding control unit 35 that puts the clutch 20 in the connected state and the detection signal of the buckle switch 39 is switched from ON to OFF.
- the speed increasing correction is performed to increase the speed of the motor 10 obtained by the control by the basic winding control unit 35. Part 36.
- the basic winding control unit 35 and the speed increasing correction unit 36 are means for realizing functions executed when the webbing 5 is wound and stored.

Description of these function realizing means is omitted.
- the basic winding control unit 35 is a means for controlling the energization current of the motor 10 so that the motor 10 has a preset speed change when the detection signal of the buckle switch 39 is switched from ON to OFF.
- the energization of the motor 10 is controlled so that the winding speed of the webbing 5 gradually decreases after the motor speed rises to a predetermined speed.
- the acceleration correction unit 36 increases the speed of the motor 10 when the clutch 21 is in an engaged state by the start of control by the basic winding control unit 35 and the rotational speed on the belt reel 12 side is equal to or higher than a predetermined speed in that state.
- the energization of the motor 10 is controlled so as to increase the speed.
- the above-mentioned “predetermined speed” is set to a boundary speed at which abnormal noise generated by slipping of the pawls 29 of the pawl 29 and the ratchet teeth 19 starts to be noticed by the occupant.
- the winding spring 50 is set to have a characteristic that the reaction force increases as the webbing 5 is pulled out. For this reason, in the state immediately after the buckle is released (after the tongue plate 8 is removed from the buckle 9) where the webbing 5 has been pulled out sufficiently long, the winding speed by the winding spring 50 is sufficiently high, and the winding of the webbing 5 As the take-up progresses, the take-up speed gradually decreases. Accordingly, when the clutch 20 is connected immediately after the buckle is released, the rotational speed on the belt reel 12 side tends to be higher than the rotational speed on the motor 10 side thereafter.
- the acceleration correction unit 36 corrects the acceleration of the motor 10 so that the rotation speed on the motor 10 side approaches the rotation speed on the belt reel 12 side quickly when the clutch 20 is connected immediately after the buckle is released.
- the acceleration of the motor 10 by the acceleration correction unit 36 is limited so that the rate of increase of the speed of the motor 10 per time becomes a predetermined value or less.
- the acceleration of the motor 10 by the acceleration correction unit 36 is performed until the winding length of the webbing 5 immediately after the detection signal of the buckle switch 39 is switched from ON to OFF reaches a predetermined length. It is set so that it is performed only during the period, and not after the predetermined length is exceeded.
- the above-mentioned “predetermined length” is, for example, a length of about one third of the length from when the buckle 9 is released until the webbing 5 is completely stored in the retractor 4 (a length of about 400 mm). ) Is set.
- step S101 it is determined whether or not the detection signal of the buckle switch 39 has been switched from ON to OFF. If yes, the process proceeds to step S102, and if no, the process returns.
- step S102 the control by the basic winding control unit 35 is started and the motor 10 is driven to rotate in the forward direction, whereby the clutch 20 is brought into a connected state.
- the winding of the webbing 5 by the winding spring 50 is started immediately after the tongue plate 8 is removed from the buckle 9.
- step S103 it is determined whether or not the winding length of the webbing 5 is within a predetermined length. If yes, the process proceeds to step S104. If no, the process proceeds to step S105. In step S105, the control by the basic winding control unit 35 is continued. In step S104, it is determined whether or not the winding speed of the webbing 5 is equal to or higher than a predetermined speed. If yes, the process proceeds to step S106. If no, the process proceeds to step S105 and the control by the basic winding control unit 35 is continued.
- step S106 the motor speed addition value Cnt is increased by, for example, “1”, and in subsequent step S107, it is determined whether or not the motor speed addition value Cnt is, for example, smaller than “3”. If yes, the process proceeds to step S108. If no, the process proceeds to step S109. In step S108, the motor speed addition value Cnt is added as it is to increase the speed of the motor 10. In step S109, the motor addition value is limited to “2”, for example, and the value (upper limit value) is added to the motor. Increase speed of 10. Steps S108 and S109 are performed by the acceleration correction unit 36.
- the motor 10 is driven to rotate forward by the basic winding control unit 35, and then the winding length of the webbing 5 is reduced.
- the speed increase correction unit 36 increases the motor speed.
- the rotational speed on the motor 10 side can be brought close to the rotational speed on the belt reel 12 side at an early stage.
- the webbing 5 is reduced while suppressing the abnormal noise generated by the locking pawl 28 of the pawl 29 sliding on the ratchet teeth 19.
- the belt reel 12 can be quickly wound.
- the speed of the motor 10 by the speed increase correction unit 36 is increased only after the tongue plate 8 is removed from the buckle 9 until the winding length of the webbing 5 reaches a predetermined length. The speed is increased. Therefore, the operation of the occupant pulling out the arm from the wheel of the webbing 5 in the latter stage of winding the webbing 5 is not hindered.
- the rate of increase of the motor speed per time by the speed increase correction unit 36 is limited. Therefore, the storing operation of the webbing 5 can be suppressed from being abrupt, and the problem of giving a sense of discomfort to the occupant when the webbing 5 is stored can be eliminated.
- the motor immediately after the webbing is removed by the occupant, the motor is driven to rotate in the winding direction by the basic winding control unit, and the clutch is brought into the connected state. Since the motor speed is increased by the speed increase correction unit so that the rotation speed on the motor side can be brought close to the rotation speed on the belt reel side at an early stage when the speed is equal to or higher than the predetermined speed, it is caused by slippage between clutch components.
- the webbing can be taken up quickly while suppressing the generation of abnormal noise.

Abstract
Description
(1)本発明の一態様に係るシートベルト装置は、シートに着座した乗員を拘束するウェビングが巻回されるベルトリールと、このベルトリールを巻取り方向に回転付勢する巻取りばねと、前記ベルトリールに駆動力を伝達するように構成されたモータと、前記モータと前記ベルトリールとの間に介装されて前記モータと前記ベルトリールとの間の断接を行うクラッチと、を備え、前記クラッチが、接続状態において、前記モータ側の前記巻取り方向の回転速度が前記ベルトリール側の回転速度以上に速い場合にのみ前記モータ側と前記ベルトリール側とを一体に回転させ、前記ベルトリール側の前記巻取り方向の前記回転速度が前記モータ側の前記回転速度よりも速い場合に、構成部品を相互に滑らすことによって前記ベルトリール側の自由な回転を許容する構成とされているシートベルト装置であって、さらに、前記ウェビングの巻取り速度を検出するウェビング速度検出部と、乗員による前記ウェビングの装着状態と非装着状態を検出する脱着状態検出部と、この脱着状態検出部による検出結果が前記装着状態から前記非装着状態に切り換わったときに、前記モータを前記巻取り方向に回転駆動するとともに前記クラッチを接続状態にする基本巻取り制御部と、前記脱着状態検出部による検出結果が前記装着状態から前記非装着状態に切り換わった後でかつ、前記ウェビング速度検出部によって検出される前記ウェビングの前記巻き取り速度が所定速度以上である場合に、前記基本巻取り制御部による制御によって得られるモータ速度に対して、前記モータ速度を増速する増速補正部と、を備える。
図1は、本実施形態にかかるシートベルト装置1の全体概略構成を示す図である。同図中2は、乗員3が着座するシートである。この実施形態に係るシートベルト装置1は、所謂三点式のシートベルト装置である。また、このシートベルト装置1は、図示しないセンタピラーに取付けられたリトラクタ4からウェビング5が上方に引き出され、そのウェビング5がセンタピラーの上部側に支持されたスルーアンカ6に挿通されるとともに、ウェビング5の先端がシート2の車室外側寄りのアウタアンカ7を介して車体フロアに固定された構成となっている。そして、ウェビング5のスルーアンカ6とアウタアンカ7との間にはタングプレート8が挿通されており、そのタングプレート8は、シート2の車体内側寄りの車体フロアに固定されたバックル9に対して脱着可能となっている。
ウェビング5は、初期状態ではリトラクタ4に巻取られている。乗員3がウェビング5を手で引き出して、タングプレート8をバックル9に固定することにより、乗員3の主に胸部と腹部とがシート2に対して拘束される。また、このシートベルト装置1は、緊急時や車両の挙動変化が大きいときや、ウェビング5をリトラクタ4に巻取り収納するとき等に、電動式のモータ10によってウェビング5の巻取りを行う。
この場合、ベルトリール12の回転に応じてセンサ回路からコントローラ21に入力されたパルス信号は、ベルトリール12の回転量や、回転速度、回転方向等を検出するのに用いられる。つまり、コントローラ21は、パルス信号をカウントすることによってベルトリール12の回転量(ウェビング5の巻取り・引き出し長さ)を検出する。また、コントローラ21は、パルス信号の変化速度(周波数)を演算することによってベルトリール12の回転速度(ウェビング5の巻取り・引き出し速度)を求める。さらに、コントローラ21は、両パルス信号の波形の立ち上がりの比較によってベルトリール12の回転方向を検出する。
本実施形態においては、回転センサ11とコントローラ21の機能の一部とがウェビング速度検出部及び巻取り長検出部を構成している。
動力伝達機構13は、サンギヤ14が駆動入力用の外歯15に一体に結合されるとともに、複数のプラネタリギヤ16を支持するキャリア17がベルトリール12の軸に結合されている。プラネタリギヤ16に噛合したリングギヤ18の外周側には、図4に示すように、複数のラチェット歯19が形成され、このラチェット歯19がクラッチ20の一部を構成している。このクラッチ20は、コントローラ21によるモータ10の駆動力の制御によってモータ10とベルトリール12との間の動力伝達系を適宜断接する。
クラッチ20は、図示しないケーシングに回動可能に支持され、先端部に係止爪28を有するパウル29と、このパウル29を操作するクラッチスプリング30と、パウル29の係止爪28に係合可能な前記リングギヤ14のラチェット歯19と、を備える。この係止爪28は、パウル29がラチェット歯19方向に操作されたときに、ラチェット歯19の傾斜面とほぼ直交する面に突き当たり、リングギヤ14の一方向の回転をロックする。
このようにリングギヤ18の回転がロックされると、前述のようにサンギヤ14に伝達された回転力がすべてキャリア17の回転となってベルトリール12に伝達されるようになる。この状態が、クラッチオン状態である。
このようにリングギヤ18のロックが解除されると、前述のようにサンギヤ14に伝達された回転力がプラネタリギヤ16を自転させる。このとき、リングギヤ18が空転してキャリア17(ベルトリール12)側に動力が伝達されない。この状態が、クラッチオフ状態である。
すなわち、サンギヤ14(モータ10側)の正転方向の回転速度がキャリア17(ベルトリール12側)の回転速度以上に速い場合には、サンギヤ14の回転トルクが、リングギヤ18をパウル29の係止爪28によってロックされる方向に作用する。このとき、リングギヤ18はキャリア17の回転方向と逆向きに回転しようとする力を受け、ラチェット歯19に係止爪28が噛合して回転停止状態となる。一方、キャリア17(ベルトリール12側)の正転方向の回転速度がサンギヤ14(モータ10側)の回転速度よりも速い場合には、キャリア17の回転トルクが、リングギヤ18をパウル29の係止爪28に対して滑らせる方向に作用する。このとき、パウル29の係止爪28はリングギヤ18のラチェット歯19の斜面を滑って歯溝に断続的に衝突し、リングギヤ18の回転速度が速い場合には、連続的な衝突音を発生することになる。
本実施形態においては、パウル29とリングギヤ18とが、クラッチ20が接続状態にあるときに、相互の滑りによってベルトリール12側の自由な回転を許容する構成部品を構成している。
増速補正部36は、バックル解除直後にクラッチ20が接続されたときに、モータ10側の回転速度がベルトリール12側の回転速度に速やかに近づくようにモータ10に対する増速補正を行う。増速補正部36によるモータ10の増速は、モータ10の速度の時間当たりの増加率が所定値以下になるように制限されている。
ステップS101においては、バックルスイッチ39の検出信号がONからOFFに切り換わったか否かを判定する。ここでYesの場合には、ステップS102に進み、Noの場合にはリターンする。
ステップS102においては、基本巻取り制御部35による制御を開始してモータ10を正転駆動することにより、クラッチ20を接続状態にする。なお、巻取りばね50によるウェビング5の巻取りは、バックル9からタングプレート8が外された直後から開始される。
ステップS104においては、ウェビング5の巻取り速度が所定速度以上であるか否かを判定する。ここでYesの場合には、ステップS106に進み、Noの場合には、ステップS105に進んで基本巻取り制御部35による制御を継続する。
ステップS108では、モータ速度加算値Cntをそのまま加算してモータ10の速度を増速し、ステップS109では、モータ加算値を例えば「2」に制限し、その値(上限値)を加算してモータ10の速度を増速する。
なお、ステップS108、S109は、増速補正部36によって行われる。
