Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Prüfung der Nutzungsberechtigung für Zugangskontrolleinrichtungen, insbesondere Schließeinrichtungen für Fahrzeuge, mit einer zugangsseitigen Steuereinrichtung mit einem Speicherbereich für einen geheimen Code, einer benutzerseitigen Schlüsseleinrichtung, die einen Transponder mit einem Speicherbereich zum Speichern eines geheimen Codes, enthält, und Vergleichsmitteln in der Steuereinrichtung zur Feststellung der für die Freigabe der Zugangseinrichtung erforderlichen Berechtigung, derart, dass die vom Transponder ausgesandte Information mit einer in der Steuereinrichtung durch den geheimen Code festgelegten Vorgabeinformation verglichen wird und dass nur bei einer Übereinstimmung eine Freigabe des Zugangs erfolgt, wobei der Transponder der Schlüsseleinrichtung einen eine fahrzeugspezifische Freigabeinformation der Schlüsseleinrichtung für die Steuereinrichtung aufweisenden weiteren Speicherbereich enthält, wobei die Steuereinrichtung Mittel zur Überprüfung, ob die Schlüsseleinrichtung die Berechtigung besitzt, an die Steuereinrichtung angelernt zu werden, aufweist.The invention relates to a device for testing the Use authorization for access control devices, in particular closing devices for vehicles, with an access-side control device with a Memory area for a secret code, one user-side key device having a Transponder with a memory area for storing a contains secret codes, and comparison means in the Control device for determining the release the access device required authorization, such that the information emitted by the transponder with a in the control by the secret Code specified specification information is compared and that only with a match a release of the Access is made, the transponder of the Key device a a vehicle-specific Release information of the key device for the Control device having further memory area contains, wherein the control means for Check if the key device has the permission has to be taught to the controller, having.

Derartige Vorrichtungen zur Prüfung der Nutzungsberechtigung für Zugangskontrolleinrichtungen, die aus einer zugangsseitigen Steuereinrichtung und einer benutzerseitigen Schlüsseleinrichtung bestehen, sind aus der Praxis bekannt.Such devices for testing the Use authorization for access control devices, the from an access-side control device and a consist of user-side key device known practice.

Moderne Schlüsseleinrichtungen erhalten als zentrales Element einen mit einem Chip gekoppelten Transponder, welcher bei elektromagnetischer Anregung eine Benutzercodeinformation, beispielsweise in Form einer Zahlenfolge, aussendet.Modern key facilities get as central Element a transponder coupled to a chip, which in electromagnetic excitation a User code information, for example in the form of a Number sequence, sends out.

In der Steuereinrichtung wird dann verglichen, ob die vom Transponder in der Schlüsseleinrichtung ausgesandte Benutzercodeinformation auf einen autorisierten Benutzer schließen lässt oder nicht. Nur bei Identifizierung des autorisierten Benutzers gibt die Steuereinrichtung den Zugang zu den nachgeschalteten Komponenten des Fahrzeuges frei, während im anderen Fall der Zugang zum Betrieb des Fahrzeuges blockiert wird. Um den Besitzer der jeweiligen Schlüsseleinrichtung als autorisiert auszuweisen, wird in einem sogenannten "Anlernprozeß" der Schlüsseleinrichtung ein geheimer Code von der Steuereinrichtung übertragen. Nach dem Anlernen des kompletten Fahrzeugschlüsselsatzes, der dem Benutzer bei der Übernahme des Fahrzeuges übergeben wurde, ist jeder Schlüssel somit kennzeichnend für den autorisierten Fahrzeugbenutzer.In the control device is then compared, whether the from Transponder emitted in the key device User code information to an authorized user close or not. Only with identification of the authorized user gives the controller the Access to the downstream components of the vehicle free, while in the other case access to the operation of the Vehicle is blocked. To the owner of the respective Key device is to be designated as authorized in a so-called "learning process" of the key device a secret code transmitted by the controller. After teaching the complete vehicle key set, the user when taking over the vehicle has been passed, each key is thus characteristic for the authorized vehicle user.

Vorrichtungen dieser Art sind beispielsweise aus der DE 4317119 C2 und der DE 4435894 A1 bekannt.Devices of this type are known for example from DE 4317119 C2 and DE 4435894 A1.

Aus der DE 4441415 A1 ist ein System zur Erstellung von Ersatzschlüsseln bekannt. Hierzu ist jedes Fahrzeug mit einem Fahrzeugidentifizierungs-Code ausgestattet.
Zwischen Ersatzschlüssel und einem Sender innerhalb des Fahrzeugs werden verschlüsselte Codes ausgetauscht und im Ersatzschlüssel in einer Datenmatrix abgespeichert. Der Ersatzschlüssel weist dabei zumindest zwei Speicherplätze auf, in denen der Fahrzeugidentifizierungs-Code und eine Entschlüsselungsfunktion gespeichert sein können.
From DE 4441415 A1 a system for creating spare keys is known. For this purpose, each vehicle is equipped with a vehicle identification code.
Between spare keys and a transmitter within the vehicle encrypted codes are exchanged and stored in the spare key in a data matrix. The replacement key has at least two memory locations in which the vehicle identification code and a decryption function can be stored.

Ferner ist aus der DE 4441415 A1 bekannt, dass zum Anlernen eines neuen Schlüssels an ein Fahrzeug ein verschlüsselter Code C und ein Befehlscode BC im Schlüssel abgelegt werden. Bei der Erstellung des Ersatzschlüssels wird in einem ersten Speicherabschnitt der verschlüsselte Code C abgelegt und ein einem zweiten Speicherabschnitt der Befehlscode BC. Zum Anlernen sendet der Ersatzschlüssel den verschlüsselten Code C zusammen mit dem Befehlscode BC an das Fahrzeug. Im Fahrzeug wird der Code C ermittelt und aus dem Code C wird die Fahrgestellnummer ermittelt. Diese Fahrgestellnummer wird mit einer in dem Fahrzeug gespeicherten Fahrgestellnummer verglichen.Furthermore, it is known from DE 4441415 A1 that the Teaching a new key to a vehicle encrypted code C and a command code BC in Key are stored. When creating the Spare key is in a first memory section the encrypted code C is stored and a second Memory section of the command code BC. Sends for learning the spare key is the encrypted code C together with the command code BC to the vehicle. In the vehicle will the code C is determined and from the code C is the Chassis number determined. This VIN will be with a VIN stored in the vehicle compared.

Bei Übereinstimmung wird der Befehlscode BC ausgelesen und beim Vorliegend eines Anlernbefehls mit einer Freigaberoutine fortgesetzt. Zum Anlernen wird mit Hilfe eines Zufallsgenerators ein Zufallscode erzeugt. Der Zufallscode wird an das Fahrzeug übermittelt und dort wird der Code C, der die Fahrgestellnummer VIN enthält, überschrieben. Das bedeutet, dass der von der Werkstatt eingespeicherte geheime Code C nach dem Anlernen in dem Schlüssel überschrieben wird und nicht mehr vorhanden ist. If they match, the instruction code BC is read out and in the presence of a teach-in command with a Sharing routine continued. To learn with help a random number generator generates a random code. Of the Random code is transmitted to the vehicle and there is the code C, which contains the VIN, overwritten. That means that of the workshop stored secret code C after learning in the Key is overwritten and no longer exists is.

Die US 5,369,706 betrifft ein Verfahren zum Freigeben einer Zugangskontrolleinrichtung mittels rollierender Codes. Bei rollierenden Codes werden beispielsweise aus Hash-Tabellen Geheimcodes entnommen, die zum einmaligen Freischalten einer Zugangskontrolleinrichtung berechtigen. Danach, dass heißt nach einmaligen Freischalten, wird ein neuer Code ermittelt. Diese rollierenden Codes (Hash-Tabellen) sind sowohl im Schloss als auch im Schlüssel gespeichert. Daher wird, wenn im Schlüssel der nächste Code ermittelt wird, dieser auch im Schloss ermittelt. Da die Hash-Tabellen von außen nicht einsehbar sind, ist somit eine sichere Zugangskontrolle möglich.US 5,369,706 relates to a method for releasing an access control device by means of rolling Codes. For example, rolling codes will look like Hash tables are taken from secret codes that are unique Activation of an access control device entitle. After that, that is after one-time Unlock, a new code is detected. These rolling codes (hash tables) are both in the lock as well as stored in the key. Therefore, when in the Key the next code is detected, this one also in the Lock detected. Since the hash tables are not from the outside is therefore a secure access control possible.

Es entsteht jedoch immer wieder ein Bedarf nach weiteren Schlüsseleinrichtungen und damit nach einem nachträglichen Anlernen von Schlüsseleinrichtungen, beispielsweise im Fall eines Verlustes oder für zusätzliche Benutzer eines Fahrzeuges. Im allgemeinen ist es hierfür erforderlich, die Steuereinrichtung durch Mitteilung eines Benutzercodes (PIN) für diese Prozedur freizuschalten. Dies geschieht üblicherweise mit Hilfe eines Werkstatt-/Diagnosetesters o.ä. in einer mehr oder weniger aufwendigen Verfahrensweise.However, there is always a need for more Key facilities and thus after one subsequent training of key facilities, for example, in the case of loss or for additional users of a vehicle. In general it required, the control device through Notification of a user code (PIN) for this procedure unlock. This usually happens with help a workshop / diagnostic tester or similar in one more or less complicated procedure.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art dahingehend weiter zu entwickeln, das ein automatisches Anlernen eines Nach- bzw. Ersatzschlüssels durch den Benutzer selber bei gleichzeitigem Schutz vor Missbrauch ermöglicht wird.The invention is based on the object Device of the type mentioned to that effect to develop an automatic learning of a or spare key by the user himself simultaneous protection against abuse.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass bei einer Vorrichtung nach dem Oberbegriff die Schlüsseleinrichtung geeignet ist, die Legitimation einer Bedienungsperson zu überprüfen, die Daten in den weiteren Speicherbereich eingeben will.This object is achieved in that in a device according to the preamble Key device is capable of legitimizing a Operator to check the data in the further Memory area wants to enter.

Mit den Mitteln der Erfindung kann in einer Ersatzteilzentrale ein angeforderter Ersatzschlüssel mit einer Freigabeinformation vorprogrammiert werden. Die Schlüsseleinrichtung wird dem anfordernden Fahrzeugbenutzer anschließend direkt zur Verfügung gestellt. Dieser kann dann die neue Schlüsseleinrichtung ohne besondere Hilfsmittel oder -prozeduren und ohne Hilfspersonal automatisch an die Steuereinrichtung anlernen lassen. Auf diese Weise lässt sich eine erhöhte Servicefreundlichkeit realisieren. Insbesondere in Regionen mit dünnem Händlernetz oder bei Schlüsselverlust im Urlaub ist somit die Verwendung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung von Vorteil.With the means of the invention can in one Spare Parts Center with a requested replacement key with be preprogrammed a release information. The Key device will request that Vehicle users then directly available posed. This can then be the new key device without special aids or procedures and without Auxiliary staff automatically to the controller teach. In this way, you can get an increased Service friendliness realized. In particular in Regions with a thin dealer network or key loss on vacation is thus the use of the invention Device advantageous.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung bietet eine große Sicherheit beim Anlernen neuer Schlüsseleinrichtungen an eine Steuereinheit, da durch die Überprüfung einer fahrzeugspezifischen Freigabeinformation in dem zusätzlichen Speicherbereich einer neuen Schlüsseleinrichtung sichergestellt ist, daß eine neue Schlüsseleinrichtung nur von der Steuereinrichtung eines bestimmten Fahrzeugs angelernt werden kann, und zwar von der, für die es die Freigabeinformation besitzt. Dabei erfolgt die Überprüfung der Berechtigung zum Anlernen durch die ohnehin in der Steuereinrichtung vorhandenen Vergleichsmittel, die die von der Schlüsseleinrichtung empfangene Freigabeinformation mit einer geforderten Freigabeinformation vergleichen.The device according to the invention offers a large Safety when teaching new key devices a control unit, there by checking a vehicle-specific release information in the additional storage area of a new one Key device is ensured that a new Key device only from the controller of a certain vehicle can be taught by the one for which it has the release information. there the authorization for teaching is checked by the already existing in the control device Comparative means used by the key facility received release information with a required Compare release information.

Bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen. Dabei wird deutlich, daß die in den automatisch anzulernenden Schlüsseleinrichtungen eingegebene Freigabeinformation in vielfältige Weise erzeugt werden kann. Dementsprechend werden für die Überprüfung in der Steuereinrichtung entweder ohnehin vorhandene Daten zum Vergleichen verwendet, oder aber es ist in der Steuereinrichtung ebenfalls ein zusätzlicher Speicherbereich vorgesehen, in der die Vergleichsinformation vorliegt.Preferred embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims. It becomes clear that the in automatically to be taught key devices entered release information in a variety of ways can be generated. Accordingly, for the Check in the controller either anyway existing data used for comparing, or it is also an additional in the controller Storage area provided in the Comparative information is available.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand einer Zeichnung näher erläutert. The invention is described below with reference to a drawing explained in more detail.

Die Zeichnung gibt einen Überblick über die Verwendung des erfindungsgemäß vorgesehenen zusätzlichen Speicherbereichs in der Schlüsseleinrichtung für das Ablegen einer Freigabeinformation, die für das Anlernen einer neuen Schlüsseleinrichtung erforderlich sein soll.The drawing gives an overview of the use of the invention provided additional Memory area in the key facility for the Storing a release information that is suitable for learning a new key device should be required.

In einer ersten Darstellung (1) ist eine Schlüsseleinrichtung B der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung gezeigt. Die Schlüsseleinrichtung B umfaßt einen Transponder mit einer Transponderspule T und einem ersten Speicherbereich SP1 der für den geheimen Code für eine übliche Zugangsberechtigungsprozedur vorgesehen ist. Zusätzlich ist ein zweiter Speicherbereiche SP2 vorhanden. In beiden Speicherbereichen SP1 und SP2 sind zu diesem Zeitpunkt noch keine Informationen gespeichert.In a first representation (1) is a Key device B of the device according to the invention shown. The key device B comprises a Transponder with a transponder coil T and a first Memory area SP1 for the secret code for a usual access authorization procedure is provided. In addition, a second memory area SP2 available. In both memory areas SP1 and SP2 are no information stored at this time.

Desweiteren ist eine Einrichtung C einer Ersatzteilzentrale dargestellt, die unter anderem eine Datenbank enthält oder aber Zugriff auf eine solche hat. Die Datenbank beinhaltet Speicherbereiche SC1-SCn, in denen fahrzeugspezifische Informationen von allen Fahrzeugen, für die diese Ersatzteilzentrale zuständig ist, gespeichert sind. Hier sei angenommen, daß es sich um gesonderte geheime Informationen handelt. Alternativ können aber auch offen zugängliche Informationen wie die Steuergeräteidentifikationsnummern gespeichert sein. Die Einrichtung C der Ersatzteilzentrale verfügt außerdem über (nicht dargestellte) Mittel zum Übertragen der gespeicherten geheimen Daten oder, im Fall von nicht geheimen gespeicherten Daten, über Mittel zum Verschlüsseln und Übertragen der Daten.Furthermore, a device C of a spare parts center is shown, which contains, among other things, a database or has access to such. The database contains memory areas SC 1 -SC n , in which vehicle-specific information is stored by all vehicles for which this spare parts center is responsible. Here it is assumed that it is separate secret information. Alternatively, however, also publicly accessible information such as the control unit identification numbers can be stored. The spare part center device C also has means (not shown) for transmitting the stored secret data or, in the case of non-secret stored data, means for encrypting and transmitting the data.

Die Ersatzteilzentrale erhält von einem Kunden die Anfrage nach einer weiteren Schlüsseleinrichtung für ein Fahrzeug. In einem ersten Schritt ermittelt die Einrichtung C der Ersatzteilzentrale, welche gespeicherte Information zu dem Fahrzeug gehört, für das eine neue Schlüsseleinrichtung angefordert wird. Anschließend überträgt die Einrichtung C diese oder eine daraus generierte Freigabeinformation M2 an eine Schlüsseleinrichtung B, die bislang noch keinem Fahrzeug zugeordnet ist und deren zwei Speicherbereiche SP1 und SP2 noch keine Daten beinhalten.The spare parts center receives from a customer the Request for another key device for a Vehicle. In a first step, the Device C of the spare parts center, which stored Information about the vehicle belongs, for which a new one Key facility is requested. Subsequently the device C transmits this or one of them Generated release information M2 to a Key device B, the so far no vehicle is assigned and whose two memory areas SP1 and SP2 does not contain any data yet.

Die Schlüsseleinrichtung B speichert die empfangene Freigabeinformation M2 in seinem zusätzlichen Speicherbereich SP2. Die Schlüsseleinrichtung B, die in der zweiten Darstellung (2) nochmals mit mit der Information M2 belegtem Speicherbereich SP2 gezeigt ist, kann nun von der Ersatzteilzentrale an den Kunden übergeben werden.The key device B stores the received Release information M2 in its additional Memory area SP2. The key device B, which in the second representation (2) again with the Information M2 occupied memory area SP2 is shown can now from the parts center to the customer be handed over.

In der dritten Darstellung (3) wird wiederum die oben beschriebene Schlüsseleinrichtung B gezeigt. Zusätzlich ist hier durch ein Rechteck ein Fahrzeug FZ angedeutet, an dessen Steuereinheit die neue Schlüsseleinrichtung B angelernt werden soll. Diese Steuereinheit ist in dem Fahrzeug FZ eingezeichnet und mit A bezeichnet. Die Steuereinheit A verfügt über mindestens einen Speicherbereich SP3, in dem der geheime Code zur Prüfung der Nutzungsberechtigung abgelegt ist. Desweiteren verfügt sie über ein Vergleichsmittel V und über nicht eingezeichnete Mittel zur Übertragung von Daten. Für das Ausführungsbeispiel ist ein zweiter Speicherbereich SP4 vorgesehen, in dem eine weitere geheime Information abgelegt ist. Zusätzlich oder alternativ kann ein Speicherbereich für das Speichern einer PIN-Nummer vorhanden sein.In the third representation (3) turn the above described key device B shown. additionally is here indicated by a rectangle a vehicle FZ, at the control unit, the new key device B should be taught. This control unit is in the Vehicle FZ marked and marked A. The Control unit A has at least one Memory area SP3 in which the secret code for review the user authorization is stored. Furthermore it has a means of comparison V and not over recorded means for transferring data. For the Embodiment is a second memory area SP4 provided in which another secret information is stored. Additionally or alternatively, a Memory area for storing a PIN number to be available.

Die Schlüsseleinrichtung B, die dem Kunden von der Ersatzteilzentrale ausgehändigt wurde und die nun über eine geheime Freigabeinformation M2 verfügt, liest diese Information aus ihrem zusätzlichen Speicherbereich SP2 aus und überträgt sie, wie durch einen Pfeil angedeutet, an die Steuereinheit A des Fahrzeugs FZ.The key device B, the customer of the Spare parts center was handed out and now over has a secret release information M2 reads it Information from its additional memory area SP2 and transmits them, as indicated by an arrow, to the control unit A of the vehicle FZ.

Die gleichen Elemente wie in der Darstellung (3) tauchen auch in der Darstellung (4) auf.The same elements as in illustration (3) dip also in the illustration (4).

Die Vergleichsmittel V der Steuereinheit A vergleichen die von der Schlüsseleinrichtung empfangene Freigabeinformation M2 mit einer in dem zusätzlichen Speicherbereich SP4 gespeicherten geheimen Information. Wird eine Übereinstimmung festgestellt, so erfolgt eine Freigabe für das eigentliche "Anlernen" einer neuen Schlüsseleinrichtung B an die Steuereinrichtung A des Fahrzeugs in üblicher Weise. Die Steuereinrichtung A überträgt hierzu den geheimen Code M1 für die Überprüfung der Nutzungsberechtigung automatisch an die Schlüsseleinrichtung B. Compare the comparison means V of the control unit A. the one received by the key device Release information M2 with one in the additional Memory area SP4 stored secret information. If a match is found, then a Release for the actual "learning" of a new Key device B to the control device A of the Vehicle in the usual way. The control device A transmits the secret code M1 for verification the right of use automatically to the Key device B.

Die Schlüsseleinrichtung B speichert den empfangenen geheimen Code M1 in dem ersten Speicherbereich SP1 des Transponders, wie in Darstellung (5) zu sehen.The key device B stores the received secret code M1 in the first memory area SP1 of the Transponders as seen in illustration (5).

Die Schlüsseleinrichtung B ist jetzt an die Steuereinheit A des Fahrzeugs FZ angelernt und kann von dem Benutzer als Nachweis der Berechtigung der Nutzung des Fahrzeugs verwendet werden.The key device B is now to the control unit A of the vehicle FZ taught and can by the user as proof of authorization to use the vehicle be used.

In dem beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel wurde ein zusätzlicher Speicherbereich SP4 in der Steuereinheit A vorgesehen, in dem eine der Freigabeinformation in dem zusätzlichen Speicherbereich SP2 der Schlüsseleinrichtung entsprechende Information gespeichert ist. Ein solcher zusätzlicher Speicherbereich stellt jedoch kein notwendiges Element für eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung dar. Beispielsweise kann als geheime Information für die Berechtigung zum Anlernen ebenso die PIN-Nummer verwendet werden, oder aber der geheime Code für die normale Zugangsberechtigung selber. Eine weitere Alternative ist, wie bereits erwähnt, die Verwendung von offen zugänglichen Informationen wie der Steuergeräteidentifikationsnummer, wenn diese zunächst verschlüsselt werden.In the described embodiment was a additional memory area SP4 in the control unit A provided in which one of the release information in the additional memory area SP2 of the key device corresponding information is stored. Such a however, there is no additional memory area necessary element for a device according to the invention For example, as secret information for the Authorization to teach as well as the PIN number used or the secret code for the normal one Access authorization itself. Another alternative is As already mentioned, the use of open accessible information like the ECU identification number, if this first be encrypted.

Hat die Schlüsseleinrichtung B in der Ersatzteilzentrale bereits den geheimen Code M1 erhalten, so kann sie von der Zentrale zusätzlich eine zweite Information M2 empfangen und diese speichern, mit der dann zwischen einer zum automatischen Anlernen berechtigten Schlüsseleinrichtung und einer verlorenen Schlüsseleinrichtung, die besser gesperrt bleibt, unterschieden werden kann.Has the key device B in the spare parts center already received the secret code M1, it can from the headquarters additionally a second information M2 receive and save this, then between one authorized for automatic training Key facility and a lost one Key device that remains better locked, can be distinguished.
