Abstract
Description
Vorrichtung zur Kontrolle von Fahrzeugreifen Device for checking vehicle tires
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Kontrolle von Fahrzeugreifeπ gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device for checking vehicle maturity according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
Um die Sicherheit und Einsatzbereitschaft von Fahrzeugbereifung zu über¬ prüfen und zu gewährleisten, sind viele Konstruktionen und Verfahren be¬ kannt geworden, bei denen insbesondere der Reifenhaftdruck gemessen und eingestellt werden kann. Bis heute haben sich diese Verfahren nicht be¬ sonders durchgesetzt, weil der Luftdruck nur ein Kriterium bei der Beur¬ teilung der Betriebssicherheit darstellt.In order to check and ensure the safety and readiness for use of vehicle tires, many constructions and methods have become known in which in particular the tire pressure can be measured and adjusted. To date, these methods have not been particularly successful because the air pressure is only one criterion when assessing operational safety.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es eine Vorrichtung zur Reifenkontrone zu schaffen, die nicht nur auf Luftdruckunterschiede anspricht, sondern auch auf andere Belastungen der Reifen, wie schlechte Auswuchtung der Räder, Überlastung u.v.a.m..The object of the invention is to provide a device for the tire control which responds not only to air pressure differences, but also to other loads on the tires, such as poor wheel balancing, overloading and much more.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe mit den im Kennzeichen des Patentanspruchs 1 angegebenen Mitteln.This object is achieved with the means specified in the characterizing part of patent claim 1.
Aus- und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind weiteren Ansprüchen, der Be¬ schreibung und Zeichnung von Ausführungsbeispielen zu entnehmen.Further and further developments of the invention can be found in the claims, the description and the drawing of exemplary embodiments.
Im Gegensatz zu einer reinen Kontrolle des Luftdruckes (z.B. DE 34 12 949 A 1) ist mit der erfindungsgemäßen Überwachungsvorrichtung durch prozessorgesteuerte Auswertung verschiedener Informationen eine sichere Erkennung und Warnsignalgebung möglich bei:In contrast to a pure control of the air pressure (e.g. DE 34 12 949 A 1), with the monitoring device according to the invention, reliable detection and warning signaling is possible through processor-controlled evaluation of various information in the case of:
Überbeladung ungleicher Lastverteilung schlechter Auswuchtung ungünstiger Belastung in ParkstellungOverloading of uneven load distribution, poor balancing, unfavorable load in park position
StoßdämpferschädenDamage to shock absorbers
Federbruch bzw. -ermüdungSpring breakage or fatigue
Rahmenverwindungen Reifenpannen, -platzen, -ablösenFrame twists Tire punctures, bursts, and detachments
AchsbruchAxle break
RadlagerschadenWheel bearing damage
Bremsschaden ungleicher Reifenabnützung.Brake damage caused by uneven tire wear.
Selbstverständlich werden diese Belastungen mit den erfindungsgemäßen Mitteln zusätzlich zu Luftdruckunterschieden erfaßbar, ohne hierauf be¬ schränkt zu sein. Auch andere statische oder dynamische Effekte können erkannt und ihre Auswirkungen vermindert oder ganz verhindert werden.Of course, these loads can be determined with the means according to the invention in addition to differences in air pressure, without being limited thereto. Other static or dynamic effects can also be recognized and their effects reduced or completely prevented.
Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung sind in den beigefügten Zeichnungen rein schematisch dargestellt. Es zeigen:Embodiments of the invention are shown purely schematically in the accompanying drawings. Show it:
Fig. 1 ein Blockschaltbild einer Ausführungsform des im Fahrzeug inte¬ grierten Systems;1 shows a block diagram of an embodiment of the system integrated in the vehicle;
Fig. 2 eine Einzelheit an einem Rad;2 shows a detail on a wheel;
Fig. 3 eine Signalverarbeitungs- und Übertragungsart.Fig. 3 shows a signal processing and transmission type.
Entsprechend Fig. 1 sind z.B. am Rahmen des Fahrzeuges Mikrophone 1 bis 4, 101 und 102 in der Nähe jedes Rades angebracht und/oder Körperschall- sensoren 1 bis 4, 104 mit den jeweiligen Vorverstärkern 101 bis 104a. Darüberhinaus kann über Sensoren 111 eine Temperaturmessung auf Abstand an den Reifen erfolgen.1, e.g. Microphones 1 to 4, 101 and 102 are attached to the frame of the vehicle in the vicinity of each wheel and / or structure-borne noise sensors 1 to 4, 104 with the respective preamplifiers 101 to 104a. In addition, sensors 111 can measure the temperature at a distance from the tires.
Aus dem Getriebe oder dem ABS können noch die jeweiligen Drehzahlen 1 bis 4 in 105 ermittelt werden.The respective speeds 1 to 4 in 105 can also be determined from the transmission or the ABS.
Alle diese Informationen gehen entweder direkt oder über eine elektri¬ sche oder optische Schnittstelle 106 einem Spektrumanalyser 107 zu. Die¬ ser führt die ohne oder mit Drehzahlinformation gewonnenen Schallspek¬ tren und/oder induzierten Körperschallspektren jedes Rades dem Auswerte¬ prozessor 108 zu. In diesen Auswerteprozessor werden die Spektren der Räder untereinander und/oder mit der gespeicherten Vorgeschichte vergli¬ chen. Dasjenige Rad mit einem defekten, fehlerhaften oder sonstwie an¬ dersartigem Reifen wird identifiziert und das Ergebnis kommt beim Fahrer als Warnung zur Anzeige 109. Ansonsten können über die so gewonnenen In¬ formationen auch Aktuatoren 110, wie z.B. die Einleitung einer Reifen¬ lösung, betätigt werden.All this information is sent to a spectrum analyzer 107 either directly or via an electrical or optical interface 106. This leads the sound spectra obtained with or without speed information and / or induced structure-borne sound spectra of each wheel to the evaluation processor 108. The spectra of the Compare wheels with one another and / or with the stored history. The wheel with a defective, defective or other type of tire is identified and the result is displayed to the driver as a warning 109. Otherwise, actuators 110, such as the initiation of a tire solution, can also be actuated via the information obtained in this way become.
Neben dieser Messung von Größen durch Sensoren am Aufbau kann entspre¬ chend Fig. 2 auch ein Testgerät 204 in die Nabe 201 mit einer Felge 202 bzw. einer weiteren Felge 203 des Fahrzeuges eingebaut werden.In addition to this measurement of sizes by sensors on the body, a test device 204 can also be installed in the hub 201 with a rim 202 or a further rim 203 of the vehicle in accordance with FIG. 2.
Dieses Testgerät liefert über eine exzentrische Masse die Energieversor¬ gung bei der Fahrt über einen Generator 301, der zugleich eine Informa¬ tion über die echte Drehzahl an den Mikroprozessor 304 abgibt. Es können damit direkt am Reifen oder der Felge z.B. Sensoren für Körperschall 302 und Temperatur 303 angebracht werden. Die Information wird über den Mikroprozessor 304 vorselektiert und über eine IR-Diode 305 einer oder mehreren Empfangsdioden 306 übermittelt.Via an eccentric mass, this test device supplies the energy supply when driving via a generator 301, which at the same time provides information about the real rotational speed to the microprocessor 304. It can be used directly on the tire or rim, e.g. Sensors for structure-borne noise 302 and temperature 303 can be attached. The information is preselected via the microprocessor 304 and transmitted via an IR diode 305 to one or more receiving diodes 306.
Diese Information kann im Gesamtsystem 307 entsprechend Fig. 1 ausgewer¬ tet werden.This information can be evaluated in the overall system 307 according to FIG. 1.
Abwandlungen der einzelnen Ausführungsbeispiele können selbstverständ¬ lich vorgenommen werden, ohne hierdurch den Rahmen der Erfindung zu ver¬ lassen, wie sie insbesondere in den Ansprüchen gekennzeichnet ist. Modifications of the individual exemplary embodiments can, of course, be made without thereby leaving the scope of the invention, as is particularly characterized in the claims.
