Definitions
- the present invention relates to devices for controlling a vehicle starter switch automobile.
- a starter D which includes an electric motor M mounted between a terminal B + power supply to battery voltage and ground.
- Electric motor supply is controlled by a contactor 1 mounted between said terminal B + and the motor M.
- This contactor 1 is a relay which includes a plunger core (not shown) actuated by a winding call 2 and a holding coil 3 for pushing and maintain a power contact in the closed position 1a.
- the call winding 2 is mounted between the end of the motor M which is opposite to the ground and the winding 3, said coil 3 being connected to ground by its end opposite.
- the coils 2 and 3 are connected to the source of a transistor 4 whose drain is connected to terminal B +, via the ignition key switch 6.
- This transistor 4 is controlled, for example in all or nothing, by a microprocessor 5 - also connected to the supply terminal B + - which injects a voltage of control on the gate of transistor 4.
- This microprocessor 5 is for example, as illustrated in FIG. 1, integrated with relay 1 and transistor 4 inside of the starter housing. It can also be located outside the starter, anywhere in the vehicle.
- the call coil 2 is chosen with very resistance lower than that of the holding coil 3.
- the transistor 4 supplying only the coil of maintenance 3, whose current consumption is low, the heating of said transistor 4 is considerably reduced.
- the transistor 4 is then very quickly destroyed by excessive heating.
- An object of the invention is to overcome this disadvantage.
- said contactor comprising a contact power which controls the supply of the electric motor of the starter and at least one coil which controls the displacement of said contact, one of the coils of said contactor being mounted between the supply terminal at the battery voltage and electric motor
- said device comprising a unit for managing the starter control, as well as a transistor, controlled by said management unit, which controls the supply of the contactor coil (s), characterized in that the management unit includes means for controlling the transistor blocked when, after a period of time predetermined, after closing the switch vehicle contact, the voltage at a given point between the coil and motor is not more than a threshold predetermined.
- the invention also relates to a device for control of the power supply of a vehicle starter automobile which comprises a contactor comprising a power contact which controls the motor supply starter motor and at least one coil which controls the movement of said contact, characterized in that that it further comprises a device for controlling contactor of the aforementioned type.
- the starter illustrated in Figure 2 has a structure similar to that illustrated in FIG. 1 and additionally includes a connection 8 between point 7 on the one hand common to motor M and to coil 2 and on the other hand a analog / digital converter at input of microprocessor 5.
- This link 8 makes it possible to inject the audit voltage point 7 in the microprocessor 5.
- the operation of the microprocessor 5 is the following.
- the microprocessor 5 determines the value U of the voltage at point 7 (step 11) and compares this value with a threshold value U 0 data (test 12).
- the threshold value U 0 is chosen so as to be characteristic of the appearance of a positive voltage at point 7, appearance which is due to the passage of a current in the call coil 2 and through the motor M.
- U 0 is for example advantageously between 1 and 8 Volts.
- the time T 1 is chosen to be greater than the time T o which normally elapses between the closing of the contact switch 6 of the vehicle and the closing of the power contact la.
- This time T o is usually between 20 and 200 milliseconds.
- the microprocessor 5 controls the blocking of the transistor 4 by delivering to the gate thereof a zero voltage (step 13).
- T 1 having been suitably chosen, such a command makes it possible to interrupt the starting process before the heating of transistor 4 has become too great and deteriorates said transistor 4.
- step 14 the microprocessor 5 continues the starting process (step 14).
- the invention would apply from the same way in the event that the current control that realizes the transistor would not be an all or nothing type but progressive, the relay may then not include only one coil instead of a call coil and a holding coil.
- the device for electronic starter control shown in figure 1 has the advantage of being of the "autonomous" type, that is to say not to require any other electrical connection than those used by conventional starters not electronic, namely a control cable allowing the connection with the vehicle's contact switch, a power supply cable connected to a terminal such as the positive terminal of the battery, and a return to ground by the carcass of the starter.
