CONSTITUTION:A control part 7 receives a signal out of a setting speed part 8 consisting of a setting speed dial, a constant-speed switch and the like, while it also receives a detection signal on the opening quantity of a butterfly valve 6, and it is so designed as to set the suitable opening as many as necessary. That is to say, the control part 7 receives a setting speed value from the setting speed part 8 and also receives a signal on an actual speed value out of a speedometer whereby these values are compared at a comparison mechanism, performing the said control.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a constant vehicle speed device that allows the vehicle to run at a constant speed according to a set vehicle speed by not only increasing the actual vehicle speed but also decelerating it.

FIG. 1 shows, for example, the relationship between the slope of a large truck and the optimum gear stage depending on the vehicle speed when the truck drives up and down a mountain road. In the figure, Noras% is the climbing slope, Minuschi is the descending slope, and the torque required for running in each gear is a quadratic curve depending on the running resistance when climbing.
When descending, the relationship between acceleration and braking force results in a polygonal curve in the lower right corner. Since it is rare for a mountain road to have a constant slope when climbing or descending, the corresponding gear changes frequently. Furthermore, in order to maintain a constant vehicle speed, braking and accelerator operations as well as gear changes are time-consuming and troublesome. Moreover, if the 7-top brake is used frequently during continuous dismounting, there is a risk that a so-called page lock phenomenon will occur, making braking impossible.

By the way, in recent years, passenger cars have adopted a constant speed device called an auto cruise control device, which allows the vehicle to maintain a constant speed even when the foot is off the accelerator, in order to reduce the burden on the driver. There is. In this sleeve device W, the autocruise state is canceled by depressing the brake pedal when deceleration is required in response to a change in the speed of the vehicle in front, for example. Even if the vehicle accelerates circularly and returns to the set vehicle speed, the above device does not function in step 11 and must be reset each time. This is exactly the same when driving on mountain roads, and even if the above-mentioned device is installed in a large truck, pass, etc., it is inconvenient for these types of vehicles, which have many opportunities to change gears.

The opening degree is set to the required amount. That is, the control section 7 receives a set vehicle speed value from the set vehicle speed section 8 and also receives a signal of the actual vehicle speed value from the speedometer, and performs the above control by comparing these values with a comparison mechanism. In addition, the fuel injection status, the opening status of the lid fly valve 6, the on/off switching of the constant speed switch, etc.

The engine brake is now working. Also, the larger the X number, the larger the radial gap of the butterfly valve 6, and the weaker the exhaust brake is operated (in the full state, the radial gap is approximately zero, which means that the exhaust brake is operating strongly). Become.

Therefore, if you turn on the constant speed switch, the larger the amount of climbing the slope, the more the fuel injection amount will automatically increase and the speed will be increased, and conversely, the larger the landing on the slope, the more the butterfly valve will automatically be activated. When the opening is small, the exhaust brake is effective, decelerating the vehicle, and driving at a constant speed. If fuel injection is activated and the exhaust brake does not operate, the engine brake will operate.

Furthermore, if the constant speed switch 18 is turned off, the operation changes to manual operation.

If the transmission 2 is in any gear other than neutral and the clutch 1b is engaged, the comparison mechanism B1 in the constant vehicle speed control mechanism B detects the α value. This α value is determined by the actual vehicle speed Va/set vehicle speed Vc, and when α<P, the fuel injection amount is adjusted to the maximum or close to it, and the exhaust brake is controlled to be inactive. That is, for example, when traveling on an uphill slope, the actual vehicle speed V& becomes slower than the set vehicle speed c, so the speed is increased to match the set vehicle speed vc.

Conversely, when R≦α, the fuel injection amount is suppressed to a minimum or zero, and the exhaust brake is controlled to remain in the operating state. That is, for example, when traveling on a descending slope, the actual vehicle speed Va becomes much faster than the set vehicle speed Vc, so the exhaust brake is applied to strongly decelerate the vehicle to match the set vehicle speed VC.

Further, as shown in FIG. 7, a constant vehicle speed release mechanism A may be provided between the setting condition of the clutch 1b and the constant vehicle speed control mechanism B. That is, the constant speed switch 18 is on, the transmission 2 enters one of the gears, and the clutch 1b is turned on.
When the setting conditions are met, the constant vehicle speed release mechanism A detects whether or not the accelerator pedal is depressed.

If the pedal is depressed, it is determined that emergency acceleration is required, such as when overtaking, and the fuel injection lid is proportionally controlled according to the amount of depression of the accelerator pedal, and the exhaust brake is deactivated. That is, while the accelerator pedal is depressed, the constant vehicle speed running function is temporarily canceled, and after the operation is completed, the function returns to the position (3). If the accelerator pedal is not depressed, the next time the accelerator pedal is depressed, it detects whether the accelerator pedal is depressed or not.

If the foot is depressed, it is determined that an emergency stop is required to avoid a collision, for example, and the fuel injection amount is reduced to the minimum or zero, the exhaust brake is deactivated, and the engine brake is applied in addition to the foot brake. figure. Note that, of course, the exhaust brake may be operated. In any case, while the brake pedal is depressed, the constant speed driving function is temporarily canceled and returns to the position (■) after operation. If the brake pedal is not depressed, a signal flows to the comparison mechanism B1 of the constant vehicle speed control mechanism B. In this way, the constant vehicle speed release mechanism A is effective when temporarily accelerating or decelerating, and after these operations are completed, constant vehicle speed traveling control is performed again.

Further, the constant vehicle speed release mechanism A may be constructed as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10. In Figure 8, the accelerator pedal depression detection mechanism A1 detects whether or not the accelerator pedal is depressed, and only when the accelerator pedal is depressed, the constant speed driving function is temporarily canceled, allowing emergency acceleration such as overtaking. . After that, if you let go of the Akuyuru Petal, it will return to the ■ position and the constant speed driving function will work. If the accelerator pedal is not depressed, a signal is sent to the constant vehicle speed control mechanism B. Therefore, this constant vehicle speed release mechanism does not consider the engagement with the brake pedal.

In Fig. 9, the accelerator pedal depression amount detection mechanism A detects whether or not the accelerator pedal is depressed, and if the accelerator pedal is depressed even slightly, a signal is directly sent to the constant vehicle speed control mechanism B. If the pedal is not depressed, a signal is sent to the constant speed switch on mechanism, turning off the constant speed switch 18 and canceling the constant speed driving function.In other words, when the constant speed switch 18 is turned on, However, while driving, the feeling of driving can be maintained by depressing the accelerator pedal, and the vehicle will travel at a constant speed regardless of the amount of depressing the accelerator pedal.

In FIG. 10, an accelerator pedal depression detection mechanism A detects whether the accelerator pedal is at an intermediate position, and if the accelerator pedal is at an intermediate position, the vehicle runs at a constant speed. The constant speed switch 18 is turned off and the constant speed driving function is canceled only when you take your foot off the accelerator pedal to press the brake pedal or when you press the accelerator and barrel to the maximum for overtaking.
