 本出願は、2014年6月19日に出願された日本出願番号2014-126659号に基づくもので、ここにその記載内容を援用する。 This application is based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2014-126659 filed on June 19, 2014, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
 本開示は、車両に搭載され、制御対象を制御する技術に関する。 This disclosure relates to a technology that is mounted on a vehicle and controls a control target.
 無線通信を用いた遠隔操作によって、車両のエンジンを始動させる技術(リモートエンジンスタータ)が知られている。リモートエンジンスタータにより、好ましくない状況でエンジンが始動されることを抑制するため、駐車位置によりエンジンの始動を禁止する技術が提案されている。特許文献1には、駐車位置が一般公道やガレージ等の室内である場合に、エンジンの始動を禁止又は保留する技術が開示されている。 A technique (remote engine starter) for starting a vehicle engine by remote control using wireless communication is known. In order to prevent the engine from being started in an unfavorable situation by a remote engine starter, a technique for prohibiting the engine from being started by a parking position has been proposed. Patent Document 1 discloses a technique for prohibiting or suspending engine starting when the parking position is in a room such as a general public road or a garage.
特開2005-163702号公報JP 2005-163702 A
 上記特許文献1に記載の技術では、駐車位置が一般公道やガレージ等の室内である場合は、エンジンの始動が禁止又は保留されるため、例えば空調装置のような車両に搭載された装置を始動させたいというユーザの要求があったとしても、これらを始動させることができない。 In the technique described in Patent Document 1, when the parking position is in a room such as a general public road or a garage, the start of the engine is prohibited or suspended, so a device mounted on a vehicle such as an air conditioner is started. Even if there is a user request to do so, they cannot be started.
 本開示は、駐車位置によらず、車両に搭載された装置の制御を行う技術を提供することを目的としている。 This disclosure is intended to provide a technique for controlling a device mounted on a vehicle regardless of the parking position.
 本開示の一態様によれば、制御装置は、車両に搭載され、エンジンによって充電される充電装置からの電力で動作する制御対象を制御する。制御装置は、検出部と、判断部と、始動制御部とを備える。 According to one aspect of the present disclosure, the control device controls a control target that is mounted on a vehicle and operates with electric power from a charging device that is charged by an engine. The control device includes a detection unit, a determination unit, and a start control unit.
 検出部は、車両の状態を検出する。判断部は、検出部にて検出される車両の状態がエンジンの始動に適する状態であることを判断する。始動制御部は、判断部により車両の状態がエンジンの始動に適する状態であると判断されると制御対象の始動にあたりエンジンを始動し、エンジンの始動に適さない状態であると判断されると制御対象の始動にあたりエンジンを始動しない。 Detecting unit detects the state of the vehicle. The determination unit determines that the state of the vehicle detected by the detection unit is a state suitable for starting the engine. The start control unit starts the engine when starting the control object when the determination unit determines that the state of the vehicle is suitable for starting the engine, and performs control when determining that the vehicle is not suitable for starting the engine. Do not start the engine when starting the target.

 制御部16は、CPU161、ROM162、RAM163を中心とする周知のマイクロコンピュータを中心に構成されている。制御部16(具体的にはCPU161)は、ROM162に記憶されたプログラムに基づいて各種処理を実行する。 The control unit 16 is configured with a known microcomputer centering on the CPU 161, ROM 162, and RAM 163. The control unit 16 (specifically, the CPU 161) executes various processes based on a program stored in the ROM 162.
 例えば、制御部16は、エンジン301が始動してからエンジン301の作動が継続している時間をエンジン継続時間として計測する処理や、エアコン201が始動してからエアコン201の作動が継続している時間をエアコン継続時間として計測する処理を行う。また、制御部16は、ユーザ200の所持する携帯端末2から送信される信号に従って、空調装置の制御を行う空調制御処理を実行する。 For example, the control unit 16 measures the time during which the operation of the engine 301 has continued since the engine 301 is started as the engine duration time, or the operation of the air conditioner 201 has been continued since the start of the air conditioner 201. Processing to measure time as air conditioner duration. Moreover, the control part 16 performs the air-conditioning control process which controls an air conditioner according to the signal transmitted from the portable terminal 2 which the user 200 possesses.
 [2.処理]
 制御部16(CPU161)が実行する空調制御処理について、図3のフローチャートを用いて説明する。なお、図3に示す処理は、ユーザ200の所持する携帯端末2から送信されたエアコン始動要求信号が通信部11にて受信されたことをきっかけとして実行される。
[2. processing]
The air conditioning control process executed by the control unit 16 (CPU 161) will be described using the flowchart of FIG. Note that the process shown in FIG. 3 is executed when the communication unit 11 receives the air conditioner start request signal transmitted from the mobile terminal 2 possessed by the user 200.
 はじめに、制御部16は、バッテリ40によりエアコン201を始動させるか否かを判断する(S105)。ここでは、バッテリ40によるエアコン201の始動を要求するバッテリ始動要求信号を携帯端末2から受信した場合に、バッテリ40によりエアコン201を始動させると判断する。制御部16は、携帯端末2からバッテリ始動要求信号を受信した場合に処理をS125へ移行させ、受信していない場合に処理をS110へ移行させる。 First, the control unit 16 determines whether or not to start the air conditioner 201 by the battery 40 (S105). Here, when a battery start request signal for requesting start of the air conditioner 201 by the battery 40 is received from the portable terminal 2, it is determined that the air conditioner 201 is started by the battery 40. The control unit 16 shifts the process to S125 when a battery start request signal is received from the mobile terminal 2, and shifts the process to S110 when not received.
 次に、制御部16は、GPS受信部12、及びエアコン始動検出部14による各検出結果を自車両の状態として取得する(S110)。なお、ここでは、制御部16は、GPS受信部12による検出結果を自車位置として取得する。ただし、GPS用の人工衛星からの送信信号がGPS受信部12により受信できない場合は、位置情報検出部13による検出結果を自車位置として取得してもよい。 Next, the control part 16 acquires each detection result by the GPS receiving part 12 and the air-conditioner start detection part 14 as a state of the own vehicle (S110). In addition, the control part 16 acquires the detection result by the GPS receiving part 12 as an own vehicle position here. However, when a transmission signal from a GPS artificial satellite cannot be received by the GPS receiver 12, the detection result by the position information detector 13 may be acquired as the vehicle position.
 続いて、制御部16は、S110で検出した自車両の状態に基づいて、自車両がエンジン301の始動に適する状態であるか否かを判断する(S115)。制御部16は、一例として、次の(1-1)~(1-6)に示す項目のうち全てに該当しない場合、自車両がエンジン301の始動に適する状態であると判断する。また、制御部16は、(1-1)~(1-6)の項目のいずれか一つに該当する場合、自車両がエンジン301の始動に適さない状態であると判断する。 Subsequently, the control unit 16 determines whether or not the host vehicle is in a state suitable for starting the engine 301 based on the state of the host vehicle detected in S110 (S115). For example, the control unit 16 determines that the host vehicle is in a state suitable for starting the engine 301 when none of the following items (1-1) to (1-6) corresponds to the items. In addition, the control unit 16 determines that the host vehicle is not suitable for starting the engine 301 when any one of the items (1-1) to (1-6) corresponds.
 (1-1)GPS受信部12又は位置情報検出部13により検出された自車位置と、記録部15に記録されている地図データとを対比して、地図データが表す条例でアイドリングが禁止されている位置に、自車位置が一致する場合。 (1-1) The vehicle position detected by the GPS receiving unit 12 or the position information detecting unit 13 and the map data recorded in the recording unit 15 are compared, and idling is prohibited by the regulations represented by the map data. The vehicle position matches the current position.
 (1-2)GPS受信部12又は位置情報検出部13により検出された自車位置と、記録部15に記録されている地図データとを対比して、地図データが表すガレージ等の密室となり得る位置に、自車位置が一致する場合。 (1-2) By comparing the vehicle position detected by the GPS receiving unit 12 or the position information detecting unit 13 with the map data recorded in the recording unit 15, it can be a closed room such as a garage represented by the map data. When the vehicle position matches the position.
 (1-3)周囲空間センサ147により検出された、自車両の周囲(自車両の前後左右及び上方向)の物標との距離が、所定値未満である場合、すなわち自車両の周囲が閉ざされた空間であることを表す場合。 (1-3) When the distance from the target around the host vehicle (front / rear / left / right and upper direction) detected by the surrounding space sensor 147 is less than a predetermined value, that is, the periphery of the host vehicle is closed. To indicate that the space is closed.
 (1-4)排気ガスセンサ144により検出された窒素酸化物(NOx)の濃度が所定値以上である場合。 (1-4) When the concentration of nitrogen oxide (NOx) detected by the exhaust gas sensor 144 is a predetermined value or more.
 (1-5)騒音センサ145(マイク)により検出された、自車両の周囲の音の大きさが所定値以上である場合。 (1-5) When the sound volume detected by the noise sensor 145 (microphone) around the host vehicle is equal to or greater than a predetermined value.
 (1-6)乗員センサ143(赤外線センサ)により検出された車内の温度分布が、人が乗車していることを示している場合。 (1-6) When the temperature distribution in the vehicle detected by the occupant sensor 143 (infrared sensor) indicates that a person is in the vehicle.
 制御部16は、エンジン301の始動に適さない状態であると判断すると(S115:NO)、処理をS125へ移行させ、エンジン301の始動に適する状態であると判断すると(S115:YES)、処理をS120へ移行させる。 If the control unit 16 determines that the engine 301 is not suitable for starting (S115: NO), the control unit 16 shifts the process to S125 and determines that the engine 301 is suitable for starting (S115: YES). To S120.
 自車両のエンジン301の始動に適する状態であると判断した場合、制御部16は、エンジン301の始動を指示する信号を通信バス7を介してエンジンECU30へ出力し、エンジンECU30にエンジン301を始動させる(S120)。 If it is determined that the vehicle 301 is in a state suitable for starting the engine 301, the control unit 16 outputs a signal instructing the engine 301 to start to the engine ECU 30 via the communication bus 7, and starts the engine 301 to the engine ECU 30. (S120).
 続いて、制御部16は、エアコン201の始動を指示する信号を通信バス7を介してエアコンECU20へ出力し、エアコンECU20にエアコン201を始動させる(S125)。制御部16は、このときのエンジン回転数をエンジン回転数センサ146により検出し、検出結果をRAM163に記憶させる。 Subsequently, the control unit 16 outputs a signal instructing the start of the air conditioner 201 to the air conditioner ECU 20 via the communication bus 7, and causes the air conditioner ECU 20 to start the air conditioner 201 (S125). The control unit 16 detects the engine speed at this time by the engine speed sensor 146 and stores the detection result in the RAM 163.
 次に、制御部16は、S125にてエアコン201を始動させるにあたりエンジンを作動させていたか否かを判断する(S130)。ここでは、RAM163に記憶されているS125におけるエンジン回転数が、所定値以上である場合に、エンジン301を作動させていたと判断する。制御部16は、エアコン201の始動にあたりエンジン301を作動させていなかった場合(S130:NO)、処理をS150へ移行させ、エンジン301を作動させていた場合(S130:YES)、処理をS135へ移行させる。 Next, the control unit 16 determines whether or not the engine has been operated in starting the air conditioner 201 in S125 (S130). Here, when the engine speed in S125 stored in RAM 163 is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, it is determined that engine 301 has been operated. When the engine 301 is not operated when starting the air conditioner 201 (S130: NO), the control unit 16 shifts the process to S150, and when the engine 301 is operated (S130: YES), the process proceeds to S135. Transition.
 エアコン201を始動させるにあたりエンジン301を作動させていた場合、制御部16は、エアコン201の作動の継続に適する状態か否かを判断する(S135)。ここでは一例として、車室内温度センサ142により検出された車室内の温度と、予め設定されていたエアコン設定温度との差、が所定値以上である場合に、エアコン201の作動の継続に適する状態であると判断する。 If the engine 301 has been operated to start the air conditioner 201, the control unit 16 determines whether it is in a state suitable for continuing the operation of the air conditioner 201 (S135). Here, as an example, when the difference between the vehicle interior temperature detected by the vehicle interior temperature sensor 142 and the preset air conditioner set temperature is a predetermined value or more, a state suitable for continuing the operation of the air conditioner 201 It is judged that.
 ここで、制御部16は、予め設定されていたエアコン設定温度と検出された車室内の温度との差が所定値未満である場合(S135;NO)、処理をS175に移行させる。制御部16は、エアコン201の停止を指示する信号を通信バス7を介してエアコンECU20へ出力し、エアコンECU20にエアコン201を停止させる(S175)。そして、本空調制御処理を終了する。一方、制御部16は、予め設定されていたエアコン設定温度と検出された車室内の温度との差が所定値以上である場合(S135;YES)、処理をS140へ移行させる。 Here, when the difference between the preset air-conditioner set temperature and the detected temperature in the passenger compartment is less than a predetermined value (S135; NO), the control unit 16 shifts the process to S175. The control unit 16 outputs a signal instructing to stop the air conditioner 201 to the air conditioner ECU 20 via the communication bus 7, and causes the air conditioner ECU 20 to stop the air conditioner 201 (S175). And this air-conditioning control process is complete | finished. On the other hand, when the difference between the preset air-conditioner set temperature and the detected temperature in the passenger compartment is equal to or greater than a predetermined value (S135; YES), the control unit 16 shifts the process to S140.
 予め設定されていたエアコン設定温度と検出された車室内の温度との差が所定値以上である場合、制御部16は、エアコン始動検出部14からの出力結果を取得して自車両の状態を検出し、検出結果に基づいて、自車両がエンジン301の作動の継続に適する状態であるか否かを判断する(S140)。制御部16は、一例として、次の(2-1)~(2-2)に示す項目のうち両方に該当しない場合、エンジン301の作動の継続に適する状態であると判断する。また、制御部16は、(2-1)~(2-2)の項目のいずれか一つに該当する場合、エンジン301の作動の継続に適さない状態であると判断する。 When the difference between the preset air-conditioner set temperature and the detected temperature in the passenger compartment is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the control unit 16 obtains the output result from the air-conditioner start detection unit 14 and determines the state of the host vehicle. Based on the detection result, it is determined whether or not the host vehicle is in a state suitable for continuing the operation of the engine 301 (S140). For example, the control unit 16 determines that the engine 301 is in a state suitable for continuing the operation when both of the following items (2-1) to (2-2) are not satisfied. Further, when any one of the items (2-1) to (2-2) is satisfied, the control unit 16 determines that the state is not suitable for continuing the operation of the engine 301.
 (2-1)エンジン継続時間が所定値以上である場合。 (2-1) When the engine duration is greater than or equal to the specified value.
 (2-2)燃料センサ148により検出された燃料タンク内のガソリンの量が所定値未満である場合。 (2-2) When the amount of gasoline in the fuel tank detected by the fuel sensor 148 is less than a predetermined value.
 ここで、自車両がエンジン301の作動の継続に適さない状態である場合、制御部16は処理をS145へ移行させる。一方、自車両がエンジン301の作動の継続に適する状態である場合、制御部16は、処理をS135へ移行させ、S140にてエンジン301の作動の継続に適さない状態であると判断される迄、S135~S140の処理を繰り返し実行する。 Here, when the own vehicle is in a state not suitable for continuing the operation of the engine 301, the control unit 16 shifts the process to S145. On the other hand, if the host vehicle is in a state suitable for continuing the operation of engine 301, control unit 16 shifts the process to S135 until it is determined in S140 that the state is not suitable for continuing operation of engine 301. , S135 to S140 are repeatedly executed.
 エンジン301の作動の継続に適さない状態である場合、制御部16は、エンジン301の停止を指示する信号を通信バス7を介してエンジンECU30へ出力し、エンジンECU30にエンジン301を停止させる(S145)。 When the engine 301 is not suitable for continuing the operation of the engine 301, the control unit 16 outputs a signal instructing the engine 301 to stop to the engine ECU 30 via the communication bus 7, and causes the engine ECU 30 to stop the engine 301 (S145). ).
 続いて、制御部16は、エアコン始動検出部14からの出力結果を取得して自車両の状態を検出し、検出結果に基づいて、エアコン201の作動の継続に適する状態であるか否かを判断する(S150)。制御部16は、一例として、次の(3-1)~(3-2)に示す項目のうち両方に該当しない場合、エアコン201の作動の継続に適する状態であると判断する。また、制御部16は、(3-1)~(3-2)の項目のいずれか一つに該当する場合、エアコン201の作動の継続に適さない状態であると判断する。 Subsequently, the control unit 16 obtains an output result from the air conditioner start detection unit 14 to detect the state of the host vehicle, and based on the detection result, determines whether or not it is a state suitable for continuing the operation of the air conditioner 201. Judgment is made (S150). For example, the control unit 16 determines that the air conditioner 201 is in a state suitable for continuing the operation when both of the following items (3-1) to (3-2) are not satisfied. Further, when any one of the items (3-1) to (3-2) is satisfied, the control unit 16 determines that the state is not suitable for continuing the operation of the air conditioner 201.
 (3-1)予め設定されていたエアコン設定温度と車室内温度センサ142により検出された車室内の温度との差が、所定値未満である場合。 (3-1) The difference between the preset air-conditioner set temperature and the vehicle interior temperature detected by the vehicle interior temperature sensor 142 is less than a predetermined value.
 (3-2)エアコン継続時間が所定値以上である場合。 (3-2) When the air conditioner duration is greater than or equal to the specified value.
 ここで、制御部16は、エアコン201の作動の継続に適さない状態であると判断すると(S150:NO)、処理をS175に移行させる。制御部16は、エアコン201の停止を指示する信号を通信バス7を介してエアコンECU20へ出力し、エアコンECU20にエアコン201を停止させる(S175)。そして、本空調制御処理を終了する。一方、制御部16は、エアコン201の作動の継続に適する状態であると判断すると(S150:YES)、処理をS155へ移行させる。 Here, if the control unit 16 determines that the condition is not suitable for continuing the operation of the air conditioner 201 (S150: NO), the process proceeds to S175. The control unit 16 outputs a signal instructing to stop the air conditioner 201 to the air conditioner ECU 20 via the communication bus 7, and causes the air conditioner ECU 20 to stop the air conditioner 201 (S175). And this air-conditioning control process is complete | finished. On the other hand, if the control part 16 judges that it is a state suitable for the continuation of the action | operation of the air conditioner 201 (S150: YES), it will transfer a process to S155.
 エアコン201の作動の継続に適する状態である場合、制御部16は、バッテリ40の作動の継続に適する状態であるか否かを判断する(S155)。ここでは一例として、バッテリ40の残電気容量が所定値以上である場合、バッテリ40の作動の継続に適する状態であると判断する。 If it is in a state suitable for continuing the operation of the air conditioner 201, the control unit 16 determines whether it is in a state suitable for continuing the operation of the battery 40 (S155). Here, as an example, when the remaining electric capacity of the battery 40 is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, it is determined that the battery 40 is in a state suitable for continuing the operation of the battery 40.
 ここで、バッテリ40の作動の継続に適する状態である場合(S155:YES)、制御部16は処理をS160へ移行させ、ユーザの所持する携帯端末2から、エアコン201を作動させるにあたりエンジン301を作動させることを要求するエンジン要求信号を受信したか否かを判断する(S160)。制御部16は、エンジン要求信号を受信していない場合(S160:NO)、処理をS150へ移行させて以降の処理を実行し、エンジン要求信号を受信した場合(S160:YES)、処理をS165へ移行させる。 Here, when it is a state suitable for the continuation of the operation | movement of the battery 40 (S155: YES), the control part 16 transfers a process to S160, and operates the engine 301 in operating the air conditioner 201 from the portable terminal 2 which a user possesses. It is determined whether or not an engine request signal requesting operation is received (S160). When the engine request signal is not received (S160: NO), the control unit 16 shifts the process to S150 and executes the subsequent processes. When the engine request signal is received (S160: YES), the process proceeds to S165. To move to.
 バッテリ40の作動の継続に適さない状態である場合(S155:NO)、又はエンジン要求信号を受信した場合(S160:YES)、制御部16は、S130と同様の処理を実行して、S125にてエアコン201を始動させるにあたりエンジン301を作動させていたか否かを判断する(S165)。 When it is in a state not suitable for continuing the operation of the battery 40 (S155: NO) or when an engine request signal is received (S160: YES), the control unit 16 executes the same process as S130, and proceeds to S125. Then, it is determined whether or not the engine 301 has been operated to start the air conditioner 201 (S165).
 ここで、S125にてエアコン201を始動させるにあたりエンジン301を作動させていた場合、制御部16は、処理をS175に移行させる。制御部16は、エアコン201の停止を指示する信号を通信バス7を介してエアコンECU20へ出力し、エアコンECU20にエアコン201を停止させる(S175)。そして、本空調制御処理を終了する。一方、S125にてエアコン201を始動させるにあたりエンジン301を作動させていなかった場合、制御部16は、処理をS170に移行させる。 Here, in the case where the engine 301 has been operated to start the air conditioner 201 in S125, the control unit 16 shifts the processing to S175. The control unit 16 outputs a signal instructing to stop the air conditioner 201 to the air conditioner ECU 20 via the communication bus 7, and causes the air conditioner ECU 20 to stop the air conditioner 201 (S175). And this air-conditioning control process is complete | finished. On the other hand, if the engine 301 has not been operated when starting the air conditioner 201 in S125, the control unit 16 shifts the processing to S170.
 エアコン201を始動させるにあたりエンジン301を始動させていなかった場合、制御部16は、エンジン始動処理を実行する(S170)。すなわち、制御部16は、まずS105と同様に自車両の状態を検出する。ここで、制御部16は、S115と同様の処理を実行し、エンジン301の始動に適する状態であるか否かを判断し、エンジン301の始動に適する状態でない場合は、処理をS175へ移行させる。一方、エンジン301の始動に適する状態である場合は、制御部16は、S135及びS140と同様の処理を実行し、エアコン201の作動の継続に適さない状態になると処理をS175へ移行させ、エンジン301の作動の継続に適さない状態になるとエンジン301を停止させて、処理をS175へ移行させる。 If the engine 301 has not been started when starting the air conditioner 201, the control unit 16 executes an engine start process (S170). That is, the control unit 16 first detects the state of the host vehicle as in S105. Here, the control unit 16 executes the same processing as S115, determines whether or not the engine 301 is in a state suitable for starting, and shifts the processing to S175 if the state is not suitable for starting the engine 301. . On the other hand, if it is in a state suitable for starting the engine 301, the control unit 16 performs the same processing as in S135 and S140, and shifts the processing to S175 when the state becomes unsuitable for continuing the operation of the air conditioner 201. If the engine 301 is not suitable for continuing the operation of the engine 301, the engine 301 is stopped and the process proceeds to S175.
 最後に、制御部16は、エアコン201の停止を指示する信号を通信バス7を介してエアコンECU20へ出力し、エアコンECU20にエアコン201を停止させる(S175)。そして、本空調制御処理を終了する。 Finally, the control unit 16 outputs a signal for instructing the stop of the air conditioner 201 to the air conditioner ECU 20 via the communication bus 7, and causes the air conditioner ECU 20 to stop the air conditioner 201 (S175). And this air-conditioning control process is complete | finished.
