Description

開閉部材制御装置Opening / closing member control device
 本発明は、開閉部材の移動を制御する開閉部材制御装置に関する。 The present invention relates to an opening / closing member control device for controlling movement of an opening / closing member.
 特許文献1には、挟み込み防止制御を有するパワーウインドウ制御装置が開示されている。このパワーウインドウ制御装置は、ユーザ操作部材であるパワーウインドウスイッチへのユーザ操作に従ってモータを回転し、窓ガラスの閉じ切り動作或いは全開動作を行う。パワーウインドウ制御装置は、モータが1回転する毎にパルスを発生するように構成されたホールセンサペアと、ECUとを含む。このECUは、一つのホールセンサのパルス数をカウントして窓ガラスの移動量を検知する。また、ECUは、ホールセンサペアのパルス信号を解析して窓ガラスの移動方向を検知する。このようにして、ECUは、窓ガラスの現在位置を認識する。また、ECUは、ホールセンサが出力するパルスの間隔(ピッチ)からモータの回転速度の変化すなわち窓ガラスの移動速度の変化を検知する。例えば、窓ガラスが閉移動中に物体に接触すると、窓ガラスの移動速度(モータの回転速度)が低下し、パルスの間隔が広くなる。ECUは、パルスの間隔を監視して物体を検出し、挟み込みを防止する。 Patent Document 1 discloses a power window control device having a pinching prevention control. This power window control device rotates a motor in accordance with a user operation to a power window switch that is a user operation member, and performs a window glass closing operation or a full opening operation. The power window control device includes a hall sensor pair configured to generate a pulse each time the motor rotates once, and an ECU. This ECU detects the amount of movement of the window glass by counting the number of pulses of one hall sensor. Moreover, ECU detects the moving direction of a window glass by analyzing the pulse signal of a hall sensor pair. In this way, the ECU recognizes the current position of the window glass. Further, the ECU detects a change in the rotational speed of the motor, that is, a change in the moving speed of the window glass, from the interval (pitch) of the pulses output from the hall sensor. For example, when the window glass contacts an object while being closed, the moving speed of the window glass (rotational speed of the motor) is reduced, and the pulse interval is widened. The ECU detects the object by monitoring the pulse interval and prevents the object from being caught.
 窓ガラスが閉じ切り位置に到達した場合にも窓ガラスの移動速度(モータの回転速度)が低下する。窓ガラスの閉じ切りが挟み込みと検出されないように、ECUは、窓位置について、挟み込み検出を有効化する感帯と、挟み込み検出を無効化する不感帯とを設定する。例えば、ECUは、窓ガラスが感帯内で閉方向に移動しているときに窓ガラスの移動速度の低下を検出した場合に、挟み込みが発生したと判定し、窓ガラスの移動(モータの回転)を反転する。こうして物体の挟み込みが防止される。一方、ECUは、窓ガラスが不感帯内で閉方向に移動しているときに窓ガラスの移動速度の低下を検出した場合に、窓ガラスが閉じ切り位置に達したと判定し、窓ガラスの移動(モータの回転)を停止する。例えば、窓ガラスの上端がガラスランリップと接触し、引き続き窓ガラスが閉方向に移動してドアフレームによって当該窓ガラスの更なる閉移動が規制されたとき、窓ガラスが閉じ切り位置に到達したことになる。 に も The movement speed of the window glass (motor rotation speed) also decreases when the window glass reaches the closed position. The ECU sets, for the window position, a sensitive zone that validates the sandwiching detection and a dead zone that invalidates the sandwiching detection so that the window glass closing is not detected. For example, if the ECU detects a decrease in the movement speed of the window glass when the window glass is moving in the closing direction within the sensitive band, the ECU determines that the pinch has occurred and moves the window glass (rotation of the motor). ). In this way, the object is prevented from being caught. On the other hand, if the ECU detects a decrease in the moving speed of the window glass while the window glass is moving in the closing direction within the dead zone, the ECU determines that the window glass has reached the closing position and moves the window glass. Stop (motor rotation). For example, when the upper end of the window glass is in contact with the glass run lip, the window glass subsequently moves in the closing direction, and further closing movement of the window glass is restricted by the door frame, the window glass reaches the closing position. It will be.
 ところで、不感帯は閉じ切り位置の直前に設定されるが、閉じ切り位置は、モータ給電電圧、周囲温度、ガラスランの経年劣化等の外部環境変化によって上方或いは下方へ変化することがある。そこで、ECUは、窓ガラスを閉じ切る度に、窓ガラスの停止位置を窓位置の原点として設定し、当該原点に基づいて不感帯の開始位置と終了位置とを設定する。例えば、当該原点から開方向へ予め決められた一定距離だけ離れた位置を不感帯の開始位置として設定する。なお、不感帯の終了位置については、ECUは、当該記憶した原点を不感帯の終了位置として設定してもよく、好ましくは、当該記憶した原点から閉方向へ、閉じ切りを確実にするためのマージン距離だけ離れた位置を不感帯の終了位置として設定してもよい。このようにして、開始位置と終了位置との間の領域が不感帯として設定される。つまり、窓ガラスを閉じ切る度にガラスランリップ或いはドアフレームに対する不感帯の位置が変更または更新される。しかし、不感帯の開始位置から終了位置(閉じ切り位置)までの距離すなわち不感帯の幅は、固定値であり、外部環境変化に関わらず変更されない。 By the way, the dead zone is set immediately before the closing position, but the closing position may change upward or downward due to external environmental changes such as motor power supply voltage, ambient temperature, and glass run aging. Therefore, every time the window glass is closed, the ECU sets the stop position of the window glass as the origin of the window position, and sets the start position and end position of the dead zone based on the origin. For example, a position that is a predetermined distance away from the origin in the opening direction is set as the dead band start position. Regarding the end position of the dead zone, the ECU may set the stored origin as the end position of the dead zone, and preferably the margin distance for ensuring the closing from the stored origin to the closing direction. A position separated by a distance may be set as the dead zone end position. In this way, a region between the start position and the end position is set as a dead zone. That is, every time the window glass is closed, the position of the dead zone with respect to the glass run lip or the door frame is changed or updated. However, the distance from the start position of the dead zone to the end position (closed position), that is, the width of the dead zone, is a fixed value and is not changed regardless of changes in the external environment.

 図6は参考例の不感帯設定を説明するための模式図である。図6においてスクリーントーンで示した領域が不感帯である。参考例では、不感帯の開始位置から終了位置までの距離は周囲温度に関わらず一定である。位置Haは、窓ガラス3がガラスラン10の両リップ10a,10bに接触してそれらリップ間に挟まれる位置である。位置Hbはガラスラン10の天壁10cの位置である。位置Hcはドアフレーム11の天壁の位置である。周囲温度によりガラスラン10の固さが変化することに伴い、低温時には不感帯の終了位置が常温時よりも下方へ変更され、高温時には不感帯の終了位置が常温時よりも上方へ変更される。このため、低温時には、ガラスランリップ10a,10bの位置Haから不感帯の開始位置までの距離が短くなり、挟み込み検出に対する余裕度が小さくなる。一方、高温時には、ドアフレーム11の位置Hcから不感帯の開始位置までの距離が短くなり、窓ガラス3の閉じ切りに対する余裕度が小さくなる。 FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram for explaining the dead band setting of the reference example. In FIG. 6, the area indicated by the screen tone is a dead zone. In the reference example, the distance from the start position to the end position of the dead zone is constant regardless of the ambient temperature. The position Ha is a position where the window glass 3 comes into contact with both lips 10a and 10b of the glass run 10 and is sandwiched between the lips. The position Hb is the position of the top wall 10 c of the glass run 10. The position Hc is the position of the top wall of the door frame 11. As the hardness of the glass run 10 changes depending on the ambient temperature, the end position of the dead zone is changed to lower than that at room temperature when the temperature is low, and the end position of the dead zone is changed to higher than that at room temperature when the temperature is high. For this reason, at a low temperature, the distance from the position Ha of the glass run lip 10a, 10b to the start position of the dead zone becomes short, and the margin for pinching detection becomes small. On the other hand, at a high temperature, the distance from the position Hc of the door frame 11 to the start position of the dead zone is shortened, and the margin for closing the window glass 3 is reduced.
 このため、参考例では、車両毎に挟み込み検出と窓ガラスの閉じ切りの実測を行って不感帯を指定する値を算出する必要があった。車両によって適切なマージンを持った不感帯を設定できない場合、挟み込み検出の閾値を変更する必要があった。 For this reason, in the reference example, it was necessary to calculate a value for designating the dead zone by performing pinching detection and actual measurement of closing of the window glass for each vehicle. When a dead zone with an appropriate margin could not be set depending on the vehicle, it was necessary to change the pinching detection threshold.
 本発明の目的は、周囲温度によらず挟み込み検出と閉じ切りを適切に行えるように不感帯を設定する開閉部材制御装置を提供することにある。
 本発明の一態様に従う開閉部材制御装置は、モータの回転に基づく開閉部材の移動を制御するとともに前記開閉部材による挟み込みを検出するように構成される開閉部材制御装置において、前記開閉部材の移動速度と前記モータに対する給電電圧とに基づいて周囲温度を推定する温度推定手段と、前記温度推定手段によって推定された周囲温度に応じて、不感帯を設定する不感帯設定手段とを備え、前記開閉部材制御装置は、前記開閉部材の移動速度低下又は移動停止を検出したときに前記開閉部材が前記不感帯にある場合、挟み込み検出を無効としつつ前記開閉部材が閉じ切り位置に達したと判定する。
An object of the present invention is to provide an opening / closing member control device that sets a dead zone so that pinching detection and closing can be appropriately performed regardless of the ambient temperature.
An opening / closing member control device according to one aspect of the present invention is configured to control movement of an opening / closing member based on rotation of a motor and detect pinching by the opening / closing member, and the moving speed of the opening / closing member. And a temperature estimation unit that estimates an ambient temperature based on a power supply voltage to the motor, and a dead zone setting unit that sets a dead zone according to the ambient temperature estimated by the temperature estimation unit, the opening / closing member control device If the opening / closing member is in the dead zone when the movement speed drop or movement stop of the opening / closing member is detected, it is determined that the opening / closing member has reached the closed position while invalidating the pinch detection.
 この態様によれば、移動速度と給電電圧に基づいて推定した周囲温度に応じて、不感帯設定手段が不感帯を自動調整する。これにより、周囲温度によらず挟み込み検出と閉じ切りを適切に行えるように不感帯を設定できる。 According to this aspect, the dead zone setting means automatically adjusts the dead zone according to the ambient temperature estimated based on the moving speed and the power supply voltage. Thereby, a dead zone can be set so that pinch detection and closing can be performed appropriately regardless of the ambient temperature.
 いくつかの態様では、前記開閉部材制御装置は前記開閉部材が前記閉じ切り位置到達前に接触する弾性部材とともに用いられ、前記不感帯は、前記不感帯のうち最も開方向側の位置である不感帯の開始位置から、前記不感帯のうち最も閉方向側の位置である不感帯の終了位置までの領域であり、前記不感帯設定手段は、前記開閉部材を閉じ切る度に当該開閉部材の移動停止位置である閉じ切り位置を原点として設定し、当該原点に基づいて前記不感帯の開始位置と終了位置とを設定し、前記不感帯設定手段は、前記温度推定手段によって推定された周囲温度が変化した場合、周囲温度変化前後の前記弾性部材のたわみ量変動分を推定し、周囲温度変化後の前記不感帯の開始位置を、周囲温度変化前の前記不感帯の開始位置から前記弾性部材の推定たわみ量変動分に応じた距離だけ移動または調整する。 In some embodiments, the opening / closing member control device is used together with an elastic member with which the opening / closing member contacts before reaching the closed position, and the dead band is a start of a dead band that is a position on the most opening direction side of the dead band. From the position to the end position of the dead band which is the position closest to the closing direction of the dead band, and the dead band setting means is a closing position which is a movement stop position of the opening / closing member each time the opening / closing member is closed. A position is set as the origin, and the start position and end position of the dead zone are set based on the origin. The dead zone setting means is configured to change the ambient temperature before and after the ambient temperature estimated by the temperature estimation means. The deflection amount fluctuation amount of the elastic member is estimated, and the start position of the dead zone after the ambient temperature change is determined from the start position of the dead zone before the ambient temperature change. By a distance corresponding to the estimated amount of deflection variation moved or adjusted.
 この態様によれば、周囲温度により弾性部材の固さが変化することを想定し、弾性部材のたわみ量変動分に応じた距離だけ不感帯の開始位置が移動または調整される。これにより、周囲温度に応じて不感帯が設定され、挟み込み検出と開閉部材の閉じ切りを両立できる。 According to this aspect, assuming that the stiffness of the elastic member changes depending on the ambient temperature, the start position of the dead zone is moved or adjusted by a distance corresponding to the amount of change in the deflection of the elastic member. Thereby, a dead zone is set according to the ambient temperature, and both pinch detection and closing of the opening / closing member can be achieved.
 いくつかの態様では、前記不感帯設定手段は、前記温度推定手段によって推定された周囲温度が下降した場合、周囲温度下降前の前記不感帯の開始位置から前記弾性部材の周囲温度下降前後のたわみ量変動分だけ閉方向にずらした位置を周囲温度下降後の前記不感帯の開始位置として設定する。 In some aspects, when the ambient temperature estimated by the temperature estimation unit is lowered, the dead zone setting unit may change a deflection amount before and after the ambient temperature of the elastic member is lowered from the start position of the dead zone before the ambient temperature is lowered. The position shifted in the closing direction by the amount is set as the start position of the dead zone after the ambient temperature drops.
 この態様によれば、低温時の挟み込み検出に対する余裕度を常温時のものと同等にできる。
 いくつかの態様では、前記不感帯設定手段は、前記温度推定手段によって推定された周囲温度が上昇した場合、周囲温度上昇前の前記不感帯の開始位置から前記弾性部材の周囲温度上昇前後のたわみ量変動分だけ開方向にずらした位置を周囲温度上昇後の前記不感帯の開始位置として設定する。
According to this aspect, the margin for pinching detection at a low temperature can be made equal to that at room temperature.
In some aspects, when the ambient temperature estimated by the temperature estimation unit rises, the dead zone setting unit changes a deflection amount before and after the ambient temperature rise of the elastic member from the start position of the dead zone before the ambient temperature rises. The position shifted in the opening direction by the amount is set as the start position of the dead zone after the ambient temperature rises.
 この態様によれば、高温時の開閉部材の閉じ切りに対する余裕度を常温時のものと同等にできる。
 いくつかの態様では開閉部材制御装置は、前記開閉部材が閉じ切り位置に到達する前に当該開閉部材の移動速度を一定速度に変更または調整し、その一定速度で当該開閉部材を閉じ切り位置まで移動させる速度制御手段を備える。
According to this aspect, the margin for closing the opening / closing member at a high temperature can be made equal to that at a normal temperature.
In some embodiments, the opening / closing member control device changes or adjusts the moving speed of the opening / closing member to a constant speed before the opening / closing member reaches the closing position, and then moves the opening / closing member to the closing position at the constant speed. A speed control means for moving is provided.
 この態様によれば、モータ給電電圧の違いによる、閉じ切り前の開閉部材の移動速度のばらつきが抑えられる。これにより、弾性部材のたわみ量の変動要因を周囲温度の影響のみに限定できる。したがって、適切な不感帯の設定に貢献できる。 According to this aspect, variation in the moving speed of the opening / closing member before closing due to the difference in the motor supply voltage can be suppressed. Thereby, the variation factor of the deflection amount of the elastic member can be limited only to the influence of the ambient temperature. Therefore, it can contribute to the setting of an appropriate dead zone.
 本発明のいくつかの態様によれば、周囲温度によらず挟み込み検出と閉じ切りを適切に行えるように不感帯を設定できる。本発明の他の形態及び利点は本発明の技術的思想の例を示している図面と共に以下の記載から明らかとなる。 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the dead zone can be set so that the pinching detection and the close-off can be appropriately performed regardless of the ambient temperature. Other aspects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following description taken in conjunction with the drawings, which illustrate examples of the technical spirit of the present invention.

 以下、開閉部材制御装置の一実施の形態について説明する。
 図1に示すように、開閉部材制御装置の一例であるパワーウインドウ制御装置1は、車両ドア2の窓ガラス3の移動を制御する。窓ガラス3は開閉部材に相当する。
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the opening / closing member control device will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, the power window control device 1, which is an example of an opening / closing member control device, controls the movement of the window glass 3 of the vehicle door 2. The window glass 3 corresponds to an opening / closing member.
 パワーウインドウ制御装置1は、窓ガラス3の移動を制御するECU4を含む。ECU4は、パワーウインドウスイッチであり得るユーザ操作部材(図示略)から窓ガラス3の開または閉を要求する信号を受信し得る。ECU4は、ユーザ操作部材からの信号に従ってモータ5を回転させる。ECU4は、閉じ切り要求に応答して窓ガラス3の閉じ切り動作を行い、全開要求に応答して窓ガラス3の全開動作を行う。 The power window control device 1 includes an ECU 4 that controls the movement of the window glass 3. The ECU 4 can receive a signal requesting opening or closing of the window glass 3 from a user operation member (not shown) which can be a power window switch. The ECU 4 rotates the motor 5 in accordance with a signal from the user operation member. The ECU 4 performs a closing operation of the window glass 3 in response to the closing request, and performs a fully opening operation of the window glass 3 in response to the full opening request.
 パワーウインドウ制御装置1は、複数のセンサ5aを含むことができる。センサ5aは、モータ5の回転を検出するための回転センサと、モータ5の給電電圧を検出するための電圧センサとを含むことができる。図1に示すように、ECU4は、回転センサの信号S1,S2と電圧センサの信号S3を受信し得る。モータ5の回転速度および回転方向は、窓ガラス3の移動速度および移動方向に対応する。 The power window control device 1 can include a plurality of sensors 5a. The sensor 5 a can include a rotation sensor for detecting the rotation of the motor 5 and a voltage sensor for detecting a power supply voltage of the motor 5. As shown in FIG. 1, the ECU 4 can receive the rotation sensor signals S1 and S2 and the voltage sensor signal S3. The rotation speed and rotation direction of the motor 5 correspond to the movement speed and movement direction of the window glass 3.
 図2は回転センサの一例を示す。モータ5の回転軸と一体で回転するウォームギヤ6を取り巻くように磁石7が設けられる。この磁石7は、ウォームギヤ6の半周領域に対応付けられたS極と、ウォームギヤ6の残りの半周領域に対応付けられたN極とを含む。磁石7の近傍には、2つのホールセンサ8,9が設けられている。各ホールセンサ8,9は、モータ5が所定角度だけ回転する毎にパルスを発生する。ホールセンサ8,9のパルス信号S1,S2はECU4に供給される。ECU4はホールセンサ8,9のパルス信号に基づいてモータ5の回転速度および回転方向すなわち窓ガラス3の移動速度および移動方向を検知することができる。 FIG. 2 shows an example of a rotation sensor. A magnet 7 is provided so as to surround the worm gear 6 that rotates integrally with the rotating shaft of the motor 5. The magnet 7 includes an S pole associated with the half circumference region of the worm gear 6 and an N pole associated with the remaining half circumference region of the worm gear 6. Two Hall sensors 8 and 9 are provided in the vicinity of the magnet 7. Each Hall sensor 8, 9 generates a pulse each time the motor 5 rotates by a predetermined angle. The pulse signals S1, S2 of the hall sensors 8, 9 are supplied to the ECU 4. The ECU 4 can detect the rotation speed and rotation direction of the motor 5, that is, the movement speed and movement direction of the window glass 3 based on the pulse signals from the hall sensors 8 and 9.
 図3(a)及び(b)は、ホールセンサ8,9が出力するパルス信号S1,S2の波形を示す。図3(a)の例では、ホールセンサ8、9の各々はモータ5が1回転する度に1つのパルスを出力する。ECU4は、ホールセンサ8が出力するパルスをカウントしてモータ5の回転角度すなわち窓ガラス3の移動量を検知する。図3(b)に示すように、ホールセンサ8、9のパルスは互いにずれている。ECU4は、ホールセンサ8のパルスの立ち上がったときのホールセンサ9のパルスがHIレベルである場合、窓ガラス3が上昇すなわち閉方向へ移動していると判定する。このときのモータ5の回転をアップ回転と呼称することがある。一方、ECU4は、ホールセンサ8のパルスの立ち上がったときのホールセンサ9のパルスがLOレベルである場合、窓ガラス3が下降すなわち開方向に移動していると判定する。このときのモータ5の回転をダウン回転と呼称することがある。このように、ECU4はホールセンサ8,9のパルスに基づいてモータ5の回転方向すなわち窓ガラス3の移動方向を検知する。そして、ECU4は、窓ガラス3の移動量と移動方向の検知を通じて、窓ガラス3の現在位置を認識する。 3 (a) and 3 (b) show the waveforms of the pulse signals S1 and S2 output from the hall sensors 8 and 9. FIG. In the example of FIG. 3A, each of the hall sensors 8 and 9 outputs one pulse each time the motor 5 makes one rotation. The ECU 4 counts the pulses output from the hall sensor 8 and detects the rotation angle of the motor 5, that is, the amount of movement of the window glass 3. As shown in FIG. 3B, the pulses of the Hall sensors 8 and 9 are shifted from each other. The ECU 4 determines that the window glass 3 is raised, that is, moved in the closing direction, when the pulse of the hall sensor 9 when the pulse of the hall sensor 8 rises is at the HI level. The rotation of the motor 5 at this time may be referred to as up rotation. On the other hand, when the pulse of the hall sensor 9 when the pulse of the hall sensor 8 rises is at the LO level, the ECU 4 determines that the window glass 3 is lowered, that is, moved in the opening direction. The rotation of the motor 5 at this time may be referred to as down rotation. Thus, the ECU 4 detects the rotation direction of the motor 5, that is, the moving direction of the window glass 3 based on the pulses of the hall sensors 8 and 9. Then, the ECU 4 recognizes the current position of the window glass 3 through detection of the movement amount and movement direction of the window glass 3.
 また、図4に示すように、ホールセンサ8のパルスの間隔(ピッチ)は、モータ5の回転速度すなわち窓ガラス3の移動速度に対応する。ECU4は、ホールセンサ8が出力するパルスの間隔を監視してモータ5の回転速度の変化を、すなわち窓ガラス3の移動速度の変化を検知する。例えば窓ガラス3に過負荷が加わったとき、通常時よりも窓ガラス3の移動速度(モータ5の回転速度)が低下する。この速度の低下は、パルスの間隔が広くなることによって示される。 Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the pulse interval (pitch) of the Hall sensor 8 corresponds to the rotational speed of the motor 5, that is, the moving speed of the window glass 3. The ECU 4 monitors the interval between pulses output from the hall sensor 8 and detects a change in the rotational speed of the motor 5, that is, a change in the moving speed of the window glass 3. For example, when an overload is applied to the window glass 3, the moving speed of the window glass 3 (rotational speed of the motor 5) is lower than normal. This decrease in speed is indicated by a wider pulse interval.
 パワーウインドウ制御装置1の挟み込み検出及び閉じ切り検出について説明する。ECU4は、窓ガラス3の位置について、挟み込み検出を有効化する感帯と、挟み込み検出を無効化する不感帯とを設定する。例えば、ECU4が窓ガラス3の移動速度低下又は移動停止を検出したときに窓ガラス3が感帯にある場合、ECU4は、挟み込みが発生したと判定し、窓ガラス3の移動(モータ5の回転)を反転する。一方、ECU4窓ガラス3の移動速度低下又は移動停止を検出したときに窓ガラス3が不感帯にある場合、ECU4は窓ガラス3が閉じ切り位置に達したと判定し、窓ガラス3(モータ5)を停止する。 The pinching detection and closing detection of the power window control device 1 will be described. The ECU 4 sets, for the position of the window glass 3, a sensitive zone that enables pinching detection and a dead zone that invalidates pinching detection. For example, if the window glass 3 is in the sensitive band when the ECU 4 detects a decrease in movement speed or a movement stop of the window glass 3, the ECU 4 determines that pinching has occurred and moves the window glass 3 (rotation of the motor 5 ). On the other hand, if the window glass 3 is in the dead zone when the movement speed reduction or movement stop of the ECU 4 window glass 3 is detected, the ECU 4 determines that the window glass 3 has reached the closed position, and the window glass 3 (motor 5). To stop.
 周囲温度に応じた不感帯設定について説明する。ECU4は、窓ガラス3の移動速度(閉速度)とモータ5に対する給電電圧(モータ給電電圧)とに基づいて周囲温度を推定する。例えば、ECU4は、周囲温度の推定に際し、信号S1,S2,S3に基づいて閉速度とモータ給電電圧の双方を監視し、閉移動時において窓ガラス3の上端がガラスランリップ10a,10bに接触する前の閉速度とモータ給電電圧を取得する。そして、ECU4は、例えばパワーウインドウ制御装置1のまたはECU4のメモリに記憶された温度テーブルを参照し、上記取得した閉速度とモータ給電電圧の双方に関連付けされた周囲温度を選択する。ECU4は温度推定手段であるかまたは温度推定手段を含む。 Explain the dead band setting according to the ambient temperature. The ECU 4 estimates the ambient temperature based on the moving speed (closing speed) of the window glass 3 and the power supply voltage (motor power supply voltage) to the motor 5. For example, when estimating the ambient temperature, the ECU 4 monitors both the closing speed and the motor power supply voltage based on the signals S1, S2, and S3, and the upper end of the window glass 3 contacts the glass run lips 10a and 10b during the closing movement. Obtain the closing speed and motor supply voltage before starting. Then, the ECU 4 refers to, for example, a temperature table stored in the power window control device 1 or in the memory of the ECU 4 and selects the ambient temperature associated with both the obtained closing speed and the motor power supply voltage. The ECU 4 is temperature estimation means or includes temperature estimation means.
 また、ECU4は、閉移動時において窓ガラス3の上端がガラスランリップ10a,10bに接触するよりも前に、好ましくは位置Haの直前で、閉速度を一定速度に変更または調整し、その一定速度で窓ガラス3を閉じ切り位置まで移動させる。一般的にガラスラン10のたわみ量は、ガラスラン10の固さ及び閉速度の両方によって変動する。ガラスラン10の固さは周囲温度の影響を受け、閉速度はモータ給電電圧と周囲温度との影響を受ける。そこで、ECU4は、閉じ切り直前の閉速度を一定速度に保つことで、ガラスラン10のたわみ量の変動要因を周囲温度の影響のみに限定する。ECU4は速度制御手段であるかまたは速度制御手段を含む。 Further, the ECU 4 changes or adjusts the closing speed to a constant speed before the upper end of the window glass 3 contacts the glass run lips 10a, 10b during the closing movement, preferably just before the position Ha, and the constant The window glass 3 is moved to the closing position at a speed. In general, the amount of deflection of the glass run 10 varies depending on both the hardness and the closing speed of the glass run 10. The hardness of the glass run 10 is affected by the ambient temperature, and the closing speed is affected by the motor power supply voltage and the ambient temperature. Therefore, the ECU 4 limits the variation factor of the deflection amount of the glass run 10 only to the influence of the ambient temperature by keeping the closing speed immediately before the closing is constant. The ECU 4 is speed control means or includes speed control means.
 ECU4は、窓ガラス3が閉じ切り位置に達したと判定する度に、その閉じ切られた窓ガラス3の停止位置である閉じ切り位置を原点として記憶する。ECU4は、当該記憶した原点を不感帯の終了位置として設定してもよく、当該記憶した原点から閉方向へ、閉じ切りを確実にするためのマージン距離だけずれた位置を不感帯の終了位置として設定してもよい。ECU4は、前回設定した不感帯の開始位置を後述する方法で調整し、当該不感帯の開始位置から当該不感帯の終了位置までの領域を不感帯として設定する。 ECU4 memorize | stores the closed position which is the stop position of the closed window glass 3 as an origin, whenever it determines with the window glass 3 having reached the closed position. The ECU 4 may set the stored origin as an end position of the dead band, and sets a position shifted from the stored origin in the closing direction by a margin distance for ensuring the close-off as the end position of the dead band. May be. The ECU 4 adjusts the start position of the dead zone set last time by a method described later, and sets a region from the start position of the dead zone to the end position of the dead zone as the dead zone.
 不感帯の開始位置の調整について説明する。ECU4は、不感帯の設定に際し、上記推定した周囲温度に応じて当該不感帯の開始位置を調整する。例えば、不感帯を前回設定したときから周囲温度が下降した場合、ECU4は、前回設定した不感帯の開始位置すなわち周囲温度下降前の不感帯の開始位置から周囲温度下降前後のガラスラン10のたわみ量の変動分だけ閉方向にずらした位置を、周囲温度下降後の不感帯の開始位置として設定する。一方、不感帯を前回設定したときから周囲温度が上昇した場合、EUC4は、前回設定した不感帯の開始位置すなわち周囲温度上昇前の不感帯の開始位置から周囲温度上昇前後のガラスラン10のたわみ量の変動分だけ開方向にずらした位置を周囲温度上昇後の不感帯の開始位置として設定する。ECU4は、周囲温度とガラスラン10のたわみ量とが関連付けされたたわみ量テーブルを参照して、今回推定した周囲温度に対応するたわみ量と前回の不感帯設定時に推定した周囲温度に対応するたわみ量との差分を上記たわみ量変動分として算出または取得するように構成され得る。ECU4は不感帯設定手段であるかまたは不感帯設定手段を含む。 The adjustment of the start position of the dead zone will be described. When setting the dead zone, the ECU 4 adjusts the start position of the dead zone in accordance with the estimated ambient temperature. For example, when the ambient temperature has decreased since the dead zone was previously set, the ECU 4 changes the deflection amount of the glass run 10 before and after the ambient temperature is lowered from the previously set dead zone start position, that is, the dead zone start position before the ambient temperature is lowered. The position shifted in the closing direction by the amount is set as the start position of the dead zone after the ambient temperature drops. On the other hand, when the ambient temperature has increased since the dead zone was set last time, the EUC 4 changes the deflection amount of the glass run 10 before and after the ambient temperature rise from the previously set dead zone start position, that is, the dead zone start position before the ambient temperature rise. The position shifted in the opening direction by the amount is set as the start position of the dead zone after the ambient temperature rises. The ECU 4 refers to the deflection amount table in which the ambient temperature and the deflection amount of the glass run 10 are associated with each other, and the deflection amount corresponding to the ambient temperature estimated this time and the deflection amount corresponding to the ambient temperature estimated when the dead zone was set last time. Is calculated or acquired as the deflection amount variation. The ECU 4 is a dead zone setting unit or includes a dead zone setting unit.
 次に、パワーウインドウ制御装置1の作用について説明する。
 図5に示すように、周囲温度によりガラスラン10(弾性部材に相当)の固さが変化することに伴い、低温時には閉じ切り位置が常温時よりも下方へ移動し、高温時には閉じ切り位置が常温時よりも上方へ移動する。
Next, the operation of the power window control device 1 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 5, as the hardness of the glass run 10 (corresponding to an elastic member) changes depending on the ambient temperature, the closed position moves downward from the normal temperature at a low temperature, and the closed position at a high temperature. Move upwards at room temperature.
 ここで、常温下で窓ガラス3のn回目の閉じ切り動作が行われ、次に、低温下で窓ガラス3のn+1回目の閉じ切り動作が行われた場合を想定する。この場合、n+1回目すなわち今回の閉じ切り動作が行われたときに設定される不感帯は、n回目すなわち前回の閉じ切り動作が行われたときに設定された不感帯から、周囲温度下降前後のガラスラン10のたわみ量変動分だけ狭められる。例えば、図5の白抜き矢印は、低温時における不感帯の開始位置が、図6の参考例のものより、たわみ量変動分だけ閉方向に移動することを示す。これにより、ガラスランリップ10a,10bから不感帯の開始位置までの距離が低温時と常温時とで同等に維持される。したがって、挟み込み検出に対する余裕度が低温時と常温時とで同等となる。 Here, it is assumed that the n-th closing operation of the window glass 3 is performed at room temperature, and then the n + 1-th closing operation of the window glass 3 is performed at a low temperature. In this case, the dead zone set when the n + 1th time, that is, the current closing operation is performed, is the glass run before and after the ambient temperature decrease from the dead zone set when the nth time, that is, the previous closing operation is performed. It is narrowed by 10 deflection amount fluctuations. For example, the white arrow in FIG. 5 indicates that the start position of the dead zone at a low temperature moves in the closing direction by the amount of deflection variation from the reference example in FIG. Thereby, the distance from the glass run lip 10a, 10b to the start position of the dead zone is maintained equally at low temperature and normal temperature. Therefore, the margin for pinching detection is the same at low temperature and normal temperature.
 同様に、常温下で窓ガラス3のn回目の閉じ切り動作が行われ、次に、高温下で窓ガラス3のn+1回目の閉じ切り動作が行われた場合を想定する。この場合、n+1回目すなわち今回の閉じ切り動作が行われたときに設定される不感帯は、n回目すなわち前回の閉じ切り動作が行われたときに設定された不感帯から、周囲温度上昇前後のガラスラン10のたわみ量変動分だけ広げられる。例えば、図5の白抜き矢印は、高温時における不感帯の開始位置が、図6の参考例のものより、たわみ量変動分だけ開方向に移動することを示す。これにより、ドアフレーム11の高さHcから不感帯の開始位置までの距離が高温時と常温時とで同等に維持される。したがって、窓ガラス3の閉じ切りに対する余裕度が高温時と常温時とで同等となる。 Similarly, it is assumed that the n-th closing operation of the window glass 3 is performed at room temperature, and then the n + 1-th closing operation of the window glass 3 is performed at a high temperature. In this case, the dead zone set when the n + 1th time, that is, the current closing operation is performed, is the glass run before and after the ambient temperature rise from the dead zone set when the nth time, that is, the previous closing operation is performed. It is widened by 10 deflection amount fluctuations. For example, the white arrow in FIG. 5 indicates that the start position of the dead band at a high temperature moves in the opening direction by the amount of deflection variation from the reference example in FIG. As a result, the distance from the height Hc of the door frame 11 to the start position of the dead zone is maintained equally at high temperatures and normal temperatures. Accordingly, the margin for closing the window glass 3 is equal between the high temperature and the normal temperature.
 以上説明したように、本実施の形態によれば、以下の効果を奏することができる。
 (1)ECU4は、周囲温度の推定を経て不感帯を自動調整する。これにより、周囲温度によらず挟み込み検出と閉じ切りを適切に行えるように不感帯を設定できる。
As described above, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) The ECU 4 automatically adjusts the dead zone after estimating the ambient temperature. Thereby, a dead zone can be set so that pinch detection and closing can be performed appropriately regardless of the ambient temperature.
 (2)周囲温度によりガラスラン10の固さが変化することを想定して不感帯が設定される。特に、ECU4は、周囲温度の変化に伴うガラスラン10のたわみ量変動分に応じて不感帯の開始位置を調整する。これにより、周囲温度に応じた開始位置を有する不感帯が設定され、挟み込み検出と窓ガラス3の閉じ切りを両立できる。 (2) A dead zone is set assuming that the hardness of the glass run 10 changes depending on the ambient temperature. In particular, the ECU 4 adjusts the start position of the dead zone according to the amount of deflection of the glass run 10 that accompanies a change in ambient temperature. Thereby, a dead zone having a start position according to the ambient temperature is set, and both pinch detection and closing of the window glass 3 can be achieved.
 (3)低温時の挟み込み検出に対する余裕度を常温時のものと同等にできる。
 (4)高温時の窓ガラス3の閉じ切りに対する余裕度を常温時のものと同等にできる。
 (5)ECU4は、閉じ切り直前の閉速度を一定速度に保つ。このため、モータ給電電圧の違いによる、閉じ切り前の窓ガラス3の移動速度のばらつきが抑えられる。これにより、ガラスラン10のたわみ量の変動要因を周囲温度の影響のみに限定できる。したがって、適切な不感帯の設定に貢献できる。
(3) The margin for pinching detection at low temperatures can be made equivalent to that at room temperature.
(4) The margin for closing the window glass 3 at high temperature can be made equivalent to that at room temperature.
(5) The ECU 4 keeps the closing speed immediately before closing at a constant speed. For this reason, the dispersion | variation in the moving speed of the window glass 3 before closing due to the difference in motor power supply voltage is suppressed. Thereby, the fluctuation | variation factor of the deflection amount of the glass run 10 can be limited only to the influence of ambient temperature. Therefore, it can contribute to the setting of an appropriate dead zone.
 尚、上記実施の形態は、次のように変更することも可能である。
 開閉部材は車両ドアの窓ガラスに限定されない。いくつかの例では、開閉部材は、建物のシャッタ等のように、閉方向が下方であり開方向が上方であってもよい。別の例では、開閉部材は、車両のスライドドア或いは建物の自動ドア等のように水平方向に移動するように構成され得る。更に別の例では、開閉部材は、車両のサンルーフ等の開閉部材であり得る。
