Abstract:
A door ECU includes a non-detection field calculation unit calculating a non-detection field of an obstacle with reference to a location of a proximity sensor arranged in a vehicle, a travel path calculation unit calculating a travel path until the vehicle comes to a stopped state, a non-detection field movement path calculation unit calculating a movement path of the non-detection field associated with the travel path of the vehicle, a door opening operation path calculation unit calculating an opening operation path of the vehicle door when the vehicle is in the stopped state, and a door opening restriction calculation unit generating a control signal of a door check device in order to restrict the opening operation angle of the vehicle door if the vehicle door may operate to open beyond the movement path of the non-detection field.
Abstract:
Provided are a vehicle door drive apparatus and a vehicle door drive method capable of decreasing, in a vehicle in which a vehicle door (such as a side door, a back door, and a trunk lid) can manually be opened, an operation force required when the vehicle door is manually opened. According to an embodiment of the present invention, when a command of automatically opening a side door in a fully closed state by a predetermined amount that does not bring the side door into a fully open state is input, a pop-up opening degree θ is determined depending on whether the command is input on a switch on an outer side of a vehicle, or is input on a switch on an inner side thereof. Then, based on the determined opening degree θ, a pop-up open operation is carried out.
Abstract:
A door check mechanism includes a movement restricting member, a check link including one end portion which is configured to be rotatably mounted to a vehicle body, the check link being relatively movable relative to the movement restricting member in a longitudinal direction of the check link, a stopper portion provided at the other end portion of the check link, and an open degree adjustment block rotating relative to the check link and including a first contact portion and a second contact portion, the open degree adjustment block restricting a movement of the check link in a direction of the one end portion of the check link in a case where the open degree adjustment block rotates towards the check link so that the first contact portion makes contact with the movement restricting member and the stopper portion makes contact with the second contact portion.
Abstract:
An automatic opening and closing apparatus of an opening and closing member for a vehicle includes an opening and closing member driving portion, a receiving portion configured to receive a radio signal transmitted from a radio transmitter and indicating identification information for identifying the vehicle, a non-contact detection sensor including a detection range that is specified to an inner side than an outermost position of the vehicle in a direction towards an outer side of a vehicle interior from the opening and closing member in a state where the opening and closing member is closed, and a control portion configured to control the opening and closing member driving portion in a case where the non-contact detection sensor detects an object in a state where the identification information is correlated to the vehicle on a basis of the radio signal received from the radio transmitter.
Abstract:
A door actuating apparatus includes an engagement mechanism configured to retain a door at a full close position, an operating portion configured to output a signal to open the door, a control unit actuating an actuator by receiving the signal, an engagement member advancing and retracting relative to the door in accordance with rotation of the door, and a door opening mechanism operating by actuation of the actuator, positioning the door at a full close position to a predetermined rotational position by rotating the door in a vehicle exterior direction by biasing the engagement member by engaging with the engagement member when the door is released from an engaged state by the door opening mechanism engaging with the engagement mechanism, and releasing engagement with the engagement member when an external force rotating the door in the vehicle exterior direction is exerted on the door at the predetermined rotational position.
Abstract:
An opening degree adjustment device for a vehicle door includes a door check including a pressing member and being fixed to a vehicle door mounted to a vehicle body; a check link including a sliding surface to be pressed by the pressing member, one end being supported on the vehicle body so as to be pivotable, and another end having a stopper member mounted thereon, the check link being movable relative to the door check within a predetermined movable range of the check link between the one end of the check link and the another end of the check link under a state in which the sliding surface is pressed by the pressing member, and an opening degree adjustment block including a first checking region configured to restrict movement of the stopper member.
Abstract:
The pop-up apparatus for a vehicle door, includes a door check to be fixed to a vehicle door, a check link having one end supported to be supported on a body so as to be turnable, the check link being configured to perform relative movement with respect to the door check between the one end and another end of the check link while being applied with a pushing force by the door check, a push arm, which is arranged on a side closer to the another end of the check link, and is configured to turn about a rotation axis to apply a force so as to cause the relative movement of the check link in a direction in which the vehicle door is opened, a posture arm configured to turn about the rotation axis, and urging means configured to apply an urging force, which enables integral turning of the push arm and the posture arm, to the push arm and the posture arm when the posture arm turns.
Abstract:
A pop-up mechanism of a door for a vehicle includes a first member configured to be supported at a vehicle body and to transmit a force to a door for a vehicle, a second member configured to store an external force applied to the second member and to transmit the force that is stored to the first member, and a trigger member releasing the force stored by the second member, the first member opening the door for the vehicle based on the force stored by the second member in a case where the trigger member releases the force stored by the second member.
Abstract:
A vehicle controller includes a pendulum mechanism arranged between an under body and an upper body of a vehicle to allow an oscillation of the upper body relative to the under body, a vehicle height adjuster allowing the under body to incline, and an inclination controller controlling an operation of the vehicle height adjuster to cause the under body to incline in a direction where the upper body inclines while oscillating around a support point that is defined by the pendulum mechanism.
Abstract:
The pop-up apparatus includes a door check, a check link, the check link being configured to perform relative movement with respect to the door check between the one end and another end of the check link while being applied with a pushing force by the door check, a popup arm arranged on a side closer to the another end of the check link, the popup arm being configured to turn about a turning axis, the popup arm being configured to apply a force with a side of one end of the popup arm so as to perform the relative movement of the check link in a direction in which the vehicle door is opened, a cam portion having an outer peripheral surface and being configured to turn about a cam axis, and a crank lever configured to move along the outer peripheral surface of the cam portion.
