Control method for parking release apparatus of shift-by-wire shifting device
View Patent ↗A control method for a parking release apparatus of a shift-by-wire shifting device can improve the commercial value of a vehicle by improving safety of the vehicle and preventing robbery, by interfering with or preventing an attempt of abnormally and manually releasing a parking state of the vehicle when there is no problem in the electric system of the vehicle, using a part provided to be manually operated in the parking release apparatus such that a P-stage state and an N-stage state can be manually switched when a problem, such as discharge, occurs in the electric system, in the vehicle equipped with a shift by wire apparatus.
1. A control method for a parking release apparatus of a shift-by-wire shifting device, the method comprising:
determining a releasing attempt that determines whether there is an abnormal manual releasing attempt on the basis of whether there is movement in a display part, wherein the display part is capable of making operational displacement in a parking cable by motion in parts of the parking release apparatus, wherein the determining a releasing attempt is performed for a predetermined time that is set to prevent the vehicle from being moved;
anti-releasing that performs control to prevent rotation of a motor, using a braking circuit of the motor, when it is determined that there is the abnormal manual releasing attempt;
checking parking subsequent to the anti-releasing, that determines whether the display part is at a position corresponding to a vehicle in a parking state;
post processing that informs breakdown or makes an alarm when it is determined that the display part is not at the position corresponding to the vehicle in the parking state; and
switching a controller to a sleep mode when there is no abnormal manual releasing attempt for the predetermined time.
2. The control method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the post processing:
ascertains whether the parts of the parking release apparatus are damaged or broken or the abnormal manual releasing attempt is kept,
displays a breakdown when the parts are damaged or broken, and
generates an alarming signal when the abnormal manual releasing attempt is kept.
3. A control method for a parking release apparatus of a shift-by-wire shifting device, the method comprising:
determining a releasing attempt that determines whether there is an abnormal manual releasing attempt on the basis of whether there is movement in a display part, wherein the display part is capable of making operational displacement in a parking cable by motion in parts of the parking release apparatus, wherein the determining a releasing attempt is performed for a predetermined time that is set to prevent the vehicle from being moved;
reverse controlling that prevents the display part from moving and returns the display part by controlling a motor in an opposite direction, when it is determined that there is the abnormal manual releasing attempt;
checking an initial position, subsequent to the reverse controlling, that determines whether the display part has returned to the initial position, wherein the initial position is a position of the display part before the abnormal manual releasing attempt; and
post processing that informs breakdown or makes an alarm when it is determined that the display part has not returned to the initial position; and
switching a controller to a sleep mode when there is no abnormal manual releasing attempt for the predetermined time.
4. The control method as defined in claim 3 , wherein the post processing:
ascertains whether the parts of the parking release apparatus are damaged or broken or the abnormal manual releasing attempt is kept,
displays a breakdown when the parts are damaged or broken, and
generates an alarming signal when the abnormal manual releasing attempt is kept.
