MOVING BODY CONTROL DEVICE
A moving body control device controls a moving body that moves by a rotation of a motor. The moving body control device includes: a pinching detecting unit that detects pinching of an object based on a change in a physical quantity indicating a rotation state of the motor. The pinching detecting unit is configured to: determine that the pinching has occurred in a case in which a first difference of the physical quantity in a first period is equal to or greater than a first threshold value and a tendency of a change in the physical quantity in the first period is a monotonous increase or a monotonous decrease; and lower a value of the first threshold value in a case in which the tendency of the monotonous increase or the monotonous decrease of the physical quantity continues for a period longer than the first period.
PINCH DETECTION SYSTEM
An open-roof assembly for a vehicle roof comprises a moveably arranged closure member, a drive assembly for moving the closure member and a control unit operatively coupled to the drive assembly. The control unit comprises a pinch detection unit for detecting a pinch of the closure member with an object. The pinch detection unit comprises a first pinch detection system and a second pinch detection system. The first pinch detection system is configured to detect a pinch with a soft object and the second pinch detection system is configured to detect a pinch with a hard object. The pinch detection unit is configured to adapt a configuration setting of the first pinch detection system upon detection of a pinch with a hard object by the second pinch detection unit to configure the first pinch detection system to detect a pinch with said hard object.
Power window control device
A power window control device is configured to control a motor to open and close a window glass of a vehicle door and perform entrapment prevention control that determines entrapment of foreign material by the window glass and reverses the window glass if determining that foreign material entrapment has occurred. If determined in the entrapment prevention control that the entrapment has occurred while the window glass is closing to fully close, the entrapment prevention control determines whether the determination is caused by an impact generated when closing the vehicle door. If determined that the entrapment has occurred due to an impact generated when closing the vehicle door, the entrapment prevention control determines that the determination of the entrapment is an erroneous determination and switches to a control for fully closing the window glass that has been reversed and opened.
Opening and closing body driving motor and opening and closing body driving system
An open-close body driving motor includes: a motor main body; a driving circuit; and a control circuit that adjusts driving power using PWM control and controls an operation mode of the open-close body to be changeable through the motor main body. The control circuit includes a PWM control unit, and a catch processing unit that determines catching by the open-close body and performs a catch process. When an operation command of the open-close body is created in a state in which a catch prevention function is not operated, the PWM control unit of the control circuit vibrates the motor main body in an audible range, such that the motor main body performs a sound-emitting operation, by including the frequency of the audible range in the control frequency for the PWM control before or during an operation of the open-close body, the operation being based on the operation command.
MOVING BODY CONTROL DEVICE
A moving body control device includes a pinching detecting unit. The pinching detecting unit is configured to calculate a first difference between physical quantities at a beginning and an end of a first period, calculate a plurality of second differences for respective second periods obtained by dividing the first period, each of the differences being a difference between physical quantities at a beginning and an end of the corresponding second period, and determine that pinching of an object has occurred in a case in which the first difference is equal to or greater than a first threshold value and a ratio of second differences equal to or greater than a second threshold value to the plurality of the second differences is equal to or greater than a third threshold value.
Door control device and door control method
A door control device includes: a speed control unit configured to perform speed control of an electric motor that drives a door; a speed detection unit configured to detect a speed of the door; and an obstruction detection unit configured to detect obstruction between the door and a door pocket, upon a value of the speed of the door detected by the speed detection unit decreasing by a first predetermined value or more with respect to a speed command value in the speed control during a door opening operation of the door.
POWER WINDOW CONTROL DEVICE
A power window control device is configured to control a motor to open and close a window glass of a vehicle door and perform entrapment prevention control that determines entrapment of foreign material by the window glass and reverses the window glass if determining that foreign material entrapment has occurred. If determined in the entrapment prevention control that the entrapment has occurred while the window glass is closing to fully close, the entrapment prevention control determines whether the determination is caused by an impact generated when closing the vehicle door. If determined that the entrapment has occurred due to an impact generated when closing the vehicle door, the entrapment prevention control determines that the determination of the entrapment is an erroneous determination and switches to a control for fully closing the window glass that has been reversed and opened.
Door closer
A door closer with an electric motor-assisted closing feature, that may generate its own power to assist in closing, and controls the speed of opening and closing of the door during generation is disclosed. Embodiments of the present disclosure are realized by a motorized door closer that electrically creates a latch boost force for a closing door. The door closer includes a motor disposed to operatively connect to a door so that the door will be moved toward closed when the motor moves, and a position sensor to determine a position of the door. A processor is programmed to exert a closing force on the door in the latch boost region or when it otherwise detects that a motor assist is needed.
OPENING AND CLOSING BODY DRIVING MOTOR AND OPENING AND CLOSING BODY DRIVING SYSTEM
This open-close body driving motor includes: a motor main body; a driving circuit; and a control circuit that adjusts driving power using PWM control and controls an operation mode of the open-close body to be changeable through the motor main body. The control circuit includes a PWM control unit, and a catch processing unit that determines catching by the open-close body and performs a catch process. When an operation command of the open-close body is created in a state in which a catch prevention function is not operated, the PWM control unit of the control circuit vibrates the motor main body in an audible range, such that the motor main body performs a sound-emitting operation, by including the frequency of the audible range in the control frequency for the PWM control before or during an operation of the open-close body, the operation being based on the operation command.
DOOR CONTROL DEVICE AND DOOR CONTROL METHOD
