A lock release control device for an opening and closing body configured to control an opening and closing body that opens and closes an opening portion of a vehicle. The opening and closing body comes into contact with a sealing member provided on a vehicle body side of the vehicle in a fully closed state. The vehicle includes a locking device and an opening and closing actuator. The locking device restrains the opening and closing body in a fully closed position. The opening and closing actuator displaces the opening and closing body by rotation of a motor to change the opening and closing body from one of two states including an open state and a closed state to another of the states. The lock release control device is configured to execute an open command acquisition process, a pull-in process, and a lock release process.

Lock release control device for opening and closing body

An opening/closing body control device for vehicles that comprises a lock device and a control device. The control device comprises: a reverse control unit that executes reverse control that rotates a rotating member in reverse, after closing control has been completed; and a position detection unit that detects the rotation position of the rotating member, on the basis of the on/off state of a neutral switch. The position detection unit is capable of detecting whether the rotation position of the rotating member is in a closed area, a release area, or a neutral area. The reverse control unit does not execute reverse control if the rotation position of the rotating member is in the neutral area, when the closing control has been completed.

Opening/closing body control device for vehicles

A device for controlling an opening/closing body for a vehicle provided with a locking device and a control device, the control device being provided with an inverse rotation stopping unit for stopping the inverse rotation of a rotary member based on the on/off state change of a first neutral switch or the on/off state change of a second neutral switch, and a re-inversion control unit. The re-inversion control unit executes re-inversion control for causing the rotary member to rotate in a first direction when the inverse rotation of the rotary member is stopped based on the on/off state change of the second neutral switch in inversion control after close control, and not causing the rotary member to rotate in a second direction when the inverse rotation of the rotary member is stopped based on the on/off state change of the second neutral switch in inversion control after release control.

Device for controlling opening/closing body for vehicle

An opening/closing body drive device includes: a motor which opens or closes an opening/closing body; a drive unit which rotates the motor; and a control unit which controls the drive unit. The drive unit includes first and second integrated circuits having first and second switching elements and third and fourth switching elements which are connected to each other in series with respect to a power source and connection points of which are connected to one and the other terminals of the motor, respectively. The control unit turn-on drives only the second switching element when braking the motor during the forward rotation and turn-on drives only the fourth switching element when braking the motor during the reverse rotation, or turn-on drives only the third switching element when braking the motor during the forward rotation and turn-on drives only the first switching element when braking the motor during the reverse rotation.

Opening/closing body drive device and control method thereof

This opening/closing body control device for vehicles comprises a lock device and a control device. The control device comprises: a reversal control unit; a reversal stopping unit; a first error detection unit that detects a first state change error in a first neutral switch, when reverse rotation of a rotating member has been stopped on the basis of a change in the on/off state of a second neutral switch during reverse control after closing control; and a second error detection unit that detects a second state change error in the first neutral switch, when reverse rotation of the rotating member is stopped on the basis of a change in the on/off state of the second neutral switch during reverse control after release control.

An opening/closing body drive device includes: a motor which opens or closes an opening/closing body; a drive unit which rotates the motor; and a control unit which controls the drive unit. The drive unit includes a first and second integrated circuits having first and second switching elements and third and fourth switching elements which are connected to each other in series with respect to a power source and connection points of which are connected to one and the other terminals of the motor, respectively. The control unit turn-on drives the first and fourth switching elements or the second and third switching elements when driving the motor to be rotated forward or reversely. The control unit turn-on drives any one of the second and third switching elements when braking the motor during the forward rotation of the motor.

A control apparatus controlling an opening and closing member for a vehicle, the control apparatus includes a control signal output portion configured to output a motor control signal, and an advance angle value set portion configured to set an advance angle value, the advance angle value being for advancing a phase of the motor control signal when an assist opening and closing operation is performed. The control apparatus is configured to perform the automatic opening and closing operation which causes an opening and closing member to open and close automatically with driving force of the motor, and the assist opening and closing operation which causes the opening and closing member to open and close in such a manner that the driving force of the motor assists a manual operation force applied to the opening and closing member.

Control apparatus controlling opening and closing member for vehicle

An apparatus for controlling an opening-and-closing member for a vehicle includes: a latch mechanism; a driving lever; a neutral position detecting portion detecting that the driving lever is in a predetermined neutral position; and a controlling portion performing a close movement, a release movement, and a returning movement after the close movement or the release movement, the controlling portion including a stress relaxing portion executing a driving of the driving lever in a reverse direction toward the neutral position after the close movement in a case of a detection failure, a prohibiting portion executing a prohibition of the driving of the driving lever after the driving of the driving lever in the reverse direction, and a cancelling portion cancelling the prohibition of the driving of the driving lever in a case where the number of times of the detection failures is less than a predetermined plural number of times.
