[Problems to be solved by the invention]

However, in such a conventional vehicle pre-operation control device, the engine cooling water temperature, the outside air temperature, the vehicle interior temperature, the set temperature of the air conditioner, etc. are constantly monitored, and the start time is determined from these temperatures and the scheduled boarding time. It has to be calculated to continue to judge whether the current time has reached the starting time, and therefore, during this period, power is continuously supplied to each temperature sensor and CPU, so that battery consumption is large, and engine start failure occurs especially in winter. There is a risk.

The present invention is intended to solve such a problem, and by adding the seasonal information to the calculation of the engine start time, it is possible to optimize the operation without always supplying the power for the pre-operation control. An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle pre-driving control device capable of starting an engine at a time.

[Means for solving problems]

Therefore, the vehicle pre-driving control device of the present invention is a scheduled boarding time setting means for setting a scheduled boarding time, a seasonal signal generating means for generating a seasonal signal, and a detection means for detecting the state of the vehicle or the engine. Reference time calculation means for calculating a reference time based on the scheduled boarding time from the scheduled boarding time setting means and the seasonal signal from the seasonal signal generating means, and based on the output of the detection means at the reference time and the same time. Engine starting time calculating means for calculating the engine starting time, engine starting means for starting the engine at the starting time, and the reference time or engine starting based on the output of the detecting means at or near the scheduled boarding time. It is characterized in that it is configured with a correction means for correcting the time.

[Action]

In the above-described vehicle pre-driving control device of the present invention, when the scheduled boarding time is input by the scheduled boarding time setting means, the reference time, which is the vehicle or engine state detection time according to the season, is output from the seasonal signal generating means. The engine start time is calculated from the output of the detection means that calculates and detects the state of the vehicle or the engine to start the engine.

Further, at the scheduled boarding time or in the vicinity thereof, the reference time of the next pre-control is corrected by the output of the detecting means, and the engine is started at a more accurate time next time.

The data is sent to the microcomputer 16 and written in the first memory data area of the memory 17 and is displayed on the display unit 13 at the same time.

Then, press the communication switch 23 of the storage unit 4,
The display unit 13 displays the date and time. Further, the main switch 129 of the portable unit 121 is turned off. Then, the storage unit 4 is moved to the base member 2 as shown in FIG.
When placed on top and pushed downward in FIG. 8 (b), the lower surface of the protrusion 8 pushes the upper surface of the wedge 203 to resist the urging force of the spring 11 and to the right in FIG. 8 (b). Press to
The wedge 203 moves to the right, the protrusion 8 enters the recess 5, and when the storage unit 4 is pushed down against a leaf spring (not shown) provided on the bottom surface of the recess 5, the slit 9 and the wedge are pressed. Since the wedge 203 is opposed to the wedge 203, the wedge 203 moves to the left in FIG. 8 (b) by the biasing force of the spring 11, enters the slit 9, and at this time, the protrusion 6 fits into the recess 5. The storage unit 4 is fixed to the base member 2.

Then, when the worm shaft 204 is manually rotated to rotate the worm wheel 205 in the clockwise direction in FIG. 8 (c), the notch 206 of the worm wheel 205 has a lower shoulder 207 in FIG. 8 (c). , The worm wheel 205 stops, and the rotation of the worm shaft 204 is stopped here. As a result, the safety mechanism 12 prohibits the knob 10 from moving to the right in FIG. 8 (b).

The wrist unit 1 is used as a clock because the driver wears the wrist unit 1 on the arm and the display unit 13 always displays the date and time.

Next, the driver turns the mode switch 22 of the memory unit 4 to 4
When you press it twice, "RELEASE" is displayed on the display unit 13. When you press the switch 21 once, "REDO" is displayed next to "RELEASE" on the display unit 13, and when you press the communication switch 23. , Is displayed on the display unit 13 on the line next to “TRANSMIT” and “RELEASE-DOOR”. Then, the driver brings the surface of the storage unit 4 close to the first transmitting / receiving unit 35 shown in FIG.
7 and 28 are opposed to each opening 45. Then, reed switch 43 of FIG. 7 is turned ON by the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 19, the voltage of the battery B through the reed switch 43, the diode 44 applied to the base of the transistor Tr _4, the transistor Tr ₄
Is turned on, the second relay 55 is actuated, the movable piece 55B is closed, electric power is sent to the first constant voltage circuit 38, and the electric power from the circuit 38 activates the transmission / reception microcomputer 37. Then,
The transmission / reception microcomputer 37 turns on the transistor Tr ₃ , the first relay 53 is activated, the power is sent to the second constant voltage circuit 39, and the circuit 39 is activated to operate each unit (door lock / unlock control unit 63, IG Control unit 75, microcomputer 83, driver 8
(4) Microcomputer 93, 102, driver 105, microcomputer 108, 117, driver 109, 118, keyboard 91, electronic tuning radio 120) and electric power are sent to various sensors. In addition, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37
The signal of the reed switch 43 causes the central unit 61 to send a signal for resetting the door lock / unlock control unit 63.

By the way, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, as shown in FIG.
The closed signal of the reed switch 43 operates the random number generating means to generate a random number of 1 to 10 and take out an arbitrary number of 1 to 10. This number is sent to the phototransistor 26 of the wrist unit 1 by blinking the LED 41 of the first transmitting / receiving unit 35.
Then, the microcomputer 16 of the wrist unit 1 presses the mode switch 22, the set switch 21, and the communication switch 23 described above so that the communication is possible.
Transmits the above-mentioned number signal to the microcomputer 16.

The microcomputer 16 reads a key code corresponding to this number from the memory 17 from the number signal, and the key code and the door code are sent to the sending / receiving microcomputer 37 via the phototransistor 42 of the first sending / receiving unit 35 by blinking the LED 25. Send.

Here, the microcomputer 37 determines whether this transmitted key code is the same as the above-mentioned number of stored key codes stored in the ROM.

If they are the same, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 transmits to the central unit 61 a signal indicating that the key code matches and a signal indicating the door. Then, the central unit 61 becomes the door lock / unlock control unit.
An unlock signal is sent to 63, and the door lock / unlock control unit 63 operates the driver side door lock actuator 64 to unlock the driver side door lock. The lock sensor 71 detects this unlocking, and the door lock / unlock control unit 63 sends a lock release signal to the central unit 61. Then, the central unit 61 sends an unlocking signal to the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 and the LED 4 of the display 40 shown in FIG.
Turn on 6 and display “RELEASE”.

By the way, when the key code transmitted from the wrist unit 1 is different from the key code corresponding to the number transmitted by the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 again activates the random number generating means to generate a number from 1 to 10. And sends this number to the microcomputer 16 of the wrist unit 1, and the microcomputer 16 sends a key code and a door code corresponding to this number to the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 to make a pass / fail judgment.

If they do not match again, the same operation as described above is performed, and if the transmitting / receiving microcomputer 37 determines again that the key codes do not match, the transmitting / receiving microcomputer 37 sends a mismatch signal to the central unit 61, and the central unit 61 sends a horn (not shown). It activates and gives an alarm.

At the same time that the above "RELEASE" is displayed, the transceiver microcomputer 3
7 sends a reset signal to the microcomputer 16 via the first transmission / reception unit 35, the microcomputer 16 is reset, and the display unit 13 displays the date and time. Then, when the wrist unit 1 is separated from the first transmitting / receiving unit 35 in FIG. 11, the reed switch 43 is turned off.
Then, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 stops the operation of the display 40.

Next, the driver opens the door 31 and sits in the driver's seat, rotates the worm shaft 204 of the wrist unit 1 by hand, rotates the worm wheel 205 counterclockwise in FIG. 8 (c), and then rotates the knob. Pull the 10 to the right in Fig. 8 (b) and wedge 203
Is removed from the slit 9 and the storage unit 4 is removed from the base member 2. Next, as shown in FIG. 12B, the lid 58 provided on the instrument panel 50 is moved to the right to open the storage chamber 52, and the storage unit 4 is inserted into the storage chamber 52. Then, the claw 57 causes the storage unit 4 to move to the accommodation chamber.
Fixed in 52, the openings 27, 28 of the storage unit 4 (these openings 27, 28 constitute a connection means with the data communication part) face the light guide 56, and the LEDs 2 of the storage unit 4 are connected.
Reference numeral 5 faces the phototransistor 48 of the second transmitting / receiving unit 36, and the phototransistor 26 faces the LED 47 via the housing 29 and the light guide 56, respectively. Further, the permanent magnet 19 of the storage unit 4 faces the reed switch 49 and turns it on, and the charging terminal 30 of the storage unit 4 is connected to the contacts 59, 60. At this time, the communication switch 23 of the storage unit 4
Is pressed, the display section 13 displays
The display changes to “TAND-BY” and the storage unit 4 is ready for transmission and reception.

When the storage unit 4 is fixed to the accommodation chamber 52 as described above, the reed switch 49 is turned on and the transistor Tr ₄ is turned on.
N, the second relay 55 is activated, and the first constant voltage circuit 38
Sends power to the transmitting / receiving microcomputer 37, and the microcomputer 37 is activated.

Since the microcomputer 37 turns on the transistor Tr ₃ and operates the first relay 53, the second constant voltage circuit 39 supplies power to the door lock / unlock control unit 63, each microcomputer, driver and sensor.

Next, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 operates the random number generation means by the ON signal of the reed switch 49 to take out an arbitrary number from 1 to 10, and the number is sent to the phototransistor 26 by blinking the LED 47 of the second transmission / reception unit 36. Then, the microcomputer 16 reads the key code corresponding to the transmitted number from the memory 17, and sends the key code to the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 via the phototransistor 48 constituting the receiving means RM by blinking the LED 25. The microcomputer 37 reads the transmitted key code and the key code corresponding to the number fetched by the microcomputer 37 from the ROM, determines whether the two key codes match, and if they match, outputs a match signal to the central unit 61.

That is, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 constitutes the judgment means JM for judging whether or not the key code received by the reception means RM matches the key code stored in advance.

When the key codes do not match, the above operation is repeated, and when the key codes do not match even after performing three times, a horn (not shown) of the vehicle is operated to issue a warning.

By the way, when the central unit 61 receives the coincidence signal, the unit 61 initializes the door lock / unlock control unit 63, the IG control unit 75, and the microcomputers 83, 93, 102, 108.

Further, the central unit 61 sends a read signal to the transmission / reception microcomputer 37. As a result, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37
Blinking D41, first to first of the memory 17 of the storage unit 4
A command for transmitting the third memory data to the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 is sent to the microcomputer 16. Then, the microcomputer 16 sequentially transmits the first to third memory data of the memory 17 by serial signals to the transmitting / receiving microcomputer 37, and the transmitting / receiving microcomputer 37 stores the first to third memory data in the RAM.

In this way, the first to third memory data are stored in the RAM of the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, and the keyboard 91 is further operated to perform data [preliminary boarding time information (scheduled start time information) (Including day of the week), air-conditioning set temperature information, seasonal information] and other memory data are also stored in the RAM of the central unit 61. As a result, the data for starting the schedule and the like are stored in the automobile.

After that, the engine can be started by turning on the ST switch 77. In the present embodiment, the schedule start control (preliminary operation control) will be described first.

That is, after storing the scheduled boarding time, the set temperature, or the season information in the central unit 61 as described above, the storage unit 4 is taken out from the accommodation chamber 52.

In this way, when the driver takes out the storage unit 4 from the accommodation chamber 52, the reed switch 49 is turned off, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 turns off the transistor Tr ₃ and turns off the second constant voltage circuit 39, and at the same time, the transistor Tr. ₄ is turned off, the first constant voltage circuit 38 is turned off, and each microcomputer and control unit are turned off.

Then, when the storage unit 4 is attached to the base member 2 and the communication switch 23 is pressed, the display unit 13 displays the date and time and exerts a clock function, while the LED 25 and the phototransistor 26 are stopped.

Next, after opening the door 31 and getting off, closing the door 31, press the mode switch 22 five times, and when the display unit 13 becomes "LOCK", press the set switch 21 to display the display unit 13. Is displayed after "LOCK" followed by "-DOOR". Next, when you press the communication switch 23, "TRANSMIT" is displayed on the next line,
When brought close where the storage unit 4 to the transceiver unit 34 activates the transceiver microcomputer 37 operates the reed switch 43 is is turned ON first constant voltage circuit 38, the microcomputer 37 first ON the transistor Tr ₃ 2 The constant voltage circuit 39 is activated. As a result, power is supplied to each unit. Then, when the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 blinks the LED 41 and transmits a reception OK, the microcomputer 16 of the storage unit 4 blinks the LED 25 and sends a “LOCK” signal to the transmission / reception microcomputer 37. The microcomputer 37 sends a "DOOR LOCK" signal to the central unit 61, and the central unit 61 sends a "DOOR LOCK" command to the door lock / unlock control unit 63. Then,
The door lock / unlock control unit 63 operates the actuators 64 to 67 to lock the door, and the lock sensor 71 detects this and outputs a door lock completion signal via the door lock / unlock control unit 63 to the central unit 61. Then, the unit 61 transmits the door lock completion to the transmission / reception microcomputer 37. Then, the microcomputer 37 lights the light emitting diode 46 to display "DOOR LOCK" on the display 40, and at the same time, transmits a door lock completion signal to the microcomputer 16 via the first transmitting / receiving unit 35. As a result, the microcomputer 16 displays the word "LOCK" on the display unit 13 on the line next to "TRANSMIT".

Here, when the driver confirms the door lock by looking at the display of the display 40, the wrist unit 1 is separated from the first transmitting / receiving unit 35. As a result, the reed switch 43 is turned off, and the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, the door lock / unlock control unit 63
Is turned off and the system on the vehicle body side stops. At this time as well, power is supplied to the RAM of the central unit 61.

The transmission / reception microcomputer 37 causes the central unit 61 to output a reset signal only to the door lock / unlock control unit 63 in response to a signal from the reed switch 43.

Then, when the driver presses the communication switch 23, the display unit 13 displays the date and time and exerts a clock function, while the LED 2
5 and the phototransistor 26 are turned off.

In such a state, "START: AM" has already been written from the storage unit 4.
Since the 7.30 F MON T FRI data has been transferred, the central unit 61 uses the function of the scheduled boarding time setting means 301 to change the "T (planned boarding time)" of the RAM to "AM7.3.
"0" and "R" are set to "MON-FRI". At the same time, the central unit 61 changes from "T" to "S [reference time (in this case, since it is the first start, there is no correction based on the learning value)" by the functions of the reference time calculation means 304 and the memory (storage means) 305. To calculate. That is, S = T−T ₀ (T ₀ is a number that changes according to the season, for example, 10 in winter, 5 in summer,
(7 is selected in the spring and autumn), for example, in the case of summer, write AM7.25 in S and in the case of winter, write AM7.20 and set “S”, “T”, and “R” to the initial setting. .
Then, as shown in FIG. 4, the central unit 61 determines whether the data of the clock IC built in the central unit 61 is R or not. If the data becomes R here, then it is judged whether S is "T-T ₀ (AM7.25 in the summer)",
When the time becomes "T-T ₀ ", the main routine for scheduling of the central unit 61 is activated. This main routine is programmed as shown in FIGS. 5 (a) to (i).

That is, when S becomes T−T ₀ , the central unit 61
Turns on the transistor Tr ₃ to operate the second constant voltage circuit 39, and initially sets each system 74,8292,101,107,115,120 to the standby state. Next, the engine cooling water temperature C is read, and then the air conditioning switch 133 is turned on.
It is judged whether or not [see FIG. 5 (a)], and this switch
When C is 18 ° C or higher when 133 is OFF, as shown in Fig. 5 (b), when the time is summer, the time is S + 4.
5, S + 9.5 (T-0.5) or "AM7.29.3 in winter"
When it becomes "0 '", the shift position of the electronically controlled automatic transmission 101 is determined from P and N, and when it is other than R and N, the microcomputer 10
When 2 operates the actuator 106 to P, and when it becomes P, the IG control device 74 and the electronic fuel injection device 92 are operated,
Start the engine. When "T + 3", that is, "AM7.33", the central unit 61 receives the ON signal from the reed switch 49 via the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, and the storage unit 4 is formed on the instrument panel 50. Since it is set in the contained chamber 52,
When the driver considers that he / she has boarded the vehicle and continues to drive the engine and presses the IG switch 76, the engine is stopped. If the reed switch 49 is OFF at the time of "T + 3", the driver does not board even when the scheduled boarding time "T" arrives, and the engine is considered not to be started at this time.
The IG control device 74 and the electronic fuel injection device 92 are turned off to stop them.

When the cooling water temperature C is 18 ° C ≧ C> 10 ° C, the engine is started to S + 2 in summer and S + 7 (T-3) in winter, that is, “AM7.27”.

Further, when the cooling water temperature C is 10 ° C. ≧ C, the engine is started to S + 0 in the summer and S + 5 in the winter, that is, 7.25 AM. Then, at time T, the cooling water temperature C ′ after the engine is started is read, and this cooling water temperature C ′ is 45 ° C.
In the above case, the reed switch 49 when "T + 3"
If is ON, keep the engine running as above,
If it is OFF, stop the engine. Also, the cooling water temperature C'is 4
When the temperature is lower than 5 ° C, for example, 45 ≧ C ′> 30, S is set to S-5 in order to correct the learning value for the next start, and when 30 ≧ C ′, a larger learning value correction is performed. S is set to S-10, and it is determined whether the engine is stopped or not by turning the reed switch 49 ON or OFF. The learning value is corrected in this way because the cooling water temperature C'after starting the engine is lower than the specified value.

By the way, if the air conditioning switch 133 is turned on, the fifth
As shown in Fig. (A), the vehicle interior temperature (hereinafter "vehicle interior temperature")
That is the case) K is read, then the set temperature L of the air conditioner is read, and then the outside air temperature R is read. K
And R are read from the sensors 112 and 111 of the air conditioner 107, and L is read from the RAM of the microcomputer 108. Then, L- in FIG.
Read W, X, Y, Z determined according to the outside temperature from the R map.

Next, it is determined whether KL is larger than U. For example, when the set temperature L = 26 ° C. and the outside air temperature R = 28 ° C., U = 2, V = −2, W = 2, X = 5, Y = -2 from the LR map of FIG. 6, and K −
If L ≧ U or more, it is next determined whether it is smaller than X. Then, since X> K-L, the central unit 61 is
It is determined whether or not the shift position of the electronically controlled automatic transmission 101 is P, N. If the shift position is other than P, N, a command signal is sent to the microcomputer 102 to set to P, and the engine is immediately started at the starting time S. Then, when the engine speed (RPM) becomes 650 or more, the central unit 61 sends a signal for operating the engine at 800 rpm to the microcomputer 93 of the electronic fuel injection device 92 because the engine start is completed. Then, the microcomputer 93
Activates the ISC 100 to run the engine at 800 rpm.
When the engine starts in this way, the central unit 61 sends a start command to the air conditioner 107, and the air conditioner 107
Operates and cools down. As a result, the cooler compressor is driven by the engine and the fan rotates at medium speed. Here, the engine speed decreases due to the load of the cooler compressor, but the engine continues to rotate again at 800 rpm due to ISC100.

Next, read the cabin temperature K'after starting the engine, and read K'-L
If> X, the cooling capacity is insufficient, so the central unit 61 sends a command to the electronic fuel injection device 92, and the ISC 100
To operate the engine at 950 rpm. And
When the current time arrives at "T + 3", that is, a time after a predetermined time from the scheduled boarding time, the difference between the vehicle compartment temperature K'and the set temperature L is larger than the specified value, so learning is performed by setting S to S-5. The value is corrected, the system is stopped when the reed switch 49 is OFF, and the operation is continued when the reed switch 49 is ON.
After that, the air conditioner 107, the electronic fuel injection device 92, etc. are brought into a normal operating state.

If S>K'-L> W, the cooling capacity is insufficient to some extent, so increase the fan with the engine kept at 800 rpm,
When the current time reaches “T + 3”, the O of reed switch 49
Judging whether the system will continue to operate or stop depending on N and OFF. In this case, the learned value is not corrected because the difference between the vehicle compartment temperature K'and the set temperature L is less than or equal to the specified value.

Further, if W ≧ K′-L> 0.5, the fan continues to operate at medium speed and the engine speed is 800 rpm, and when the current time reaches “T + 3”, the reed switch 49
Whether the system continues to run or is stopped is determined by turning ON and OFF. Also in this case, the learning value is not similarly corrected.

If 0.5 ≧ K′−L> −0.5, it is considered that the vehicle interior is at the set temperature, the fan is weakened, and when the current time reaches “T + 3”, the system is operated by turning the reed switch 49 ON / OFF. Determine whether to continue or stop. In this case as well, the learning value is not similarly corrected.

If -0.5≥K'-L, the temperature is below the set temperature, so the fan is stopped, and when the current time reaches "T + 3", the reed switch 49 is turned on or off to keep the engine running or stop. Decide whether to do it. In this case, "T +
When the current time reaches "3", the learning value can be corrected by setting S to S + 1, for example.

Next, if the vehicle interior temperature K before engine start is 32 ° C,
Since KL (32-26) is larger than X (5), as shown in FIG. 5 (c), when the engine is started and the engine speed becomes 650 rpm or more, the central unit 61
Sends a command signal to the electronic fuel injection device 92 to activate the ISC 100 and operate the engine at 950 rpm. Then, the air conditioner 107 is cooled and the fan is turned on. Next, read the vehicle interior temperature K'after starting the engine, and read K'-
When L> X and the current time becomes "T + 3", S is changed to S-
Correct the learning value so that it is 10 or "AM 7.15". Then, it is determined whether the driving is continued or stopped by turning the reed switch 49 ON and OFF.

When X ≧ K′-L> W, as shown in FIG. 5 (d), if the engine speed is set to 950 rpm and the current time is “T + 3”, the learning value is corrected to S to correct the learning value. To S
Set to -5 to determine whether to continue operating the system by turning the reed switch 49 ON and OFF.

Thus, in this case, the learned value is corrected in two steps according to the value of KL.

When X ≧ K′-L> W in FIG. 5A, the learning value is not corrected even if “T + 3” is satisfied.
In the figure (d), when X ≧ K′-L> W, the learning value is corrected by taking the NO route in the judgment of X> K-L.
This is because the default value differs depending on the YES route. The same applies thereafter.

Furthermore, when W ≧ K′-L, ISC100 is activated,
Set the engine speed to 800 rpm, then turn the fan inside if K'-L> 0.5, weaken the fan if 0.5>K'-L> -0.5, and if -0.5>K'-L. When the fan is stopped and the current time is “T + 3”, the reed switch 49
Whether or not the system continues to operate is determined by turning it on and off. In this case, the learning value is not corrected.

Now, next, when K-L is less than U and more than V,
That is, when U>K-L> V [first in FIG. 5 (e)]
Since the vehicle compartment temperature K before the engine is started is appropriate, the air conditioner 107 is not operated and the engine start time is controlled by the engine cooling water temperature C as when the air conditioner switch 133 is OFF. To be done. [Refer to FIG. 5 (b)] Now, when K−L is V or less, for example, the set temperature L
= 17 ° C. and outside air temperature R = 8 ° C., U = 3, V = −2, Y = −2, Z = −5 from the LR map of FIG. 6, then Z>
If the engine cooling water temperature C exceeds 18 ° C during KL, as shown in Fig. 5 (f), in the summer, S + 3,
In the winter season, the engine is started at S + 8, that is, (T-2) time (AM7.28), the cooling water temperature C ′ is read, and when the cooling water temperature C ′ exceeds 45 ° C., the air conditioner 107 is operated. , Fully open the valve provided in the conduit that guides the engine cooling water to the heater core, and weaken the fan.

Here, after the engine is started, the cabin temperature K ′ is read,
If K'-L≤Z, the fan is strengthened by fully opening the valve, and Z
If>K'-L≥Y, open the valve to open the fan,
If 1 ≧ K′-L> Y, the valve is opened halfway to weaken the fan, and if K′-L> 1, the valve is opened halfway and the fan is stopped. The current time is "T + 3", that is,
When "AM7.33" is reached, it is determined whether or not the system continues to operate by turning the reed switch 49 ON and OFF. in this case,
The learning value is not corrected.

Next, when the coolant temperature C before engine start is 18 ≧ C> 10, when the current time is S + 2 in summer and S + 7 in winter (T-3), the engine is started, and after engine start If the cooling water temperature C'exceeds 45 ° C, the air conditioner 10
Operate 7, open the valve fully and put the fan in. Here, the temperature K'of the passenger compartment after starting the engine is read and K'-
When L ≦ Z, the fan is strengthened by fully opening the valve, and in this state, when the current time becomes “T + 3”, in this case, the cooling water temperature C before engine start is smaller than the specified value, so the air conditioner 107 is specified. Whether or not to continue operating the engine by turning on and off the reed switch 49 by setting S to S-5 and correcting the learning value, since it was operated above the condition (full power, that is, the fan is strong and the valve is fully open) To judge.

When Z>K'-L≥Y, the valve is fully opened to open the fan, when 1>K'-L> Y, the valve is opened halfway to weaken the fan, and when K'-L> 1, the fan is turned on. When it stops and the current time becomes “T + 3”, the reed switch 49
Whether or not the system continues to be driven is determined by turning ON and OFF.

Further, when the cooling water temperature C before the engine is started is 10> C, the engine is immediately started at time “S” in the summer, and the engine is started at time “S + 5” in the winter, as shown in FIG. When the cooling water temperature C'after starting the engine exceeds 45 ° C., the air conditioner 107 is operated, the valve is fully opened, and the fan is strengthened. When the vehicle compartment temperature K'after engine start is read and K'-L≤Z, the fan is strengthened, and when the time "T + 3" is reached in this state, S is changed to S-10 to correct the learning value. The reed switch 49 determines whether or not to continue the operation of the engine.

Further, when Y ≧ K′−L ≧ Z, the fan is set to the center, and in this state, when “T + 3” is reached, S is set to S−5 to correct the learning value. Also in this case, the learning value is corrected in two steps according to the value of K'-L. Furthermore, when 1 ≧ K′-L> Y, the fan is weakened and K′-L
When> 1, the fan is stopped. Then, when the time “T + 3” is reached in these states, it is determined whether the system operation is continued according to the signal from the reed switch 49.

Next, when K−L ≧ Z and C> 18, as shown in FIG. 5 (e), S + 4 in summer and S + in winter.
If the cooling water temperature C ′ after the engine is started exceeds 45 ° C., the air conditioner 107
Activates and opens the valve halfway to weaken the fan.

At the time of "3", the reed switch 49 is turned on and off to determine whether the system can be continuously operated.

Now, as described above, the engine is started according to the schedule and the air conditioner 107 operates, and at the same time, the seat position data of the power seat 115 stored in the RAM of the central unit 61 is loaded into the microcomputer 117,
The microcomputer 117 drives the motor 119 to set the seat at the specified position. The data stored in the RAM at this time is the data input from the storage unit 4 in advance and corrected by the operation from the keyboard.

Further, the electronic tuning radio 120 also selects the designated broadcasting station.

As described above, the engine is started according to the season according to the schedule, and the cabin temperature is adjusted to the specified temperature, so the driver who boarded the vehicle at the scheduled time can feel comfortable and warm up. You can start the vehicle without waiting for. In other words, because you can enter the driving schedule of the vehicle, when you come to work from home every day, the temperature inside the vehicle is at the desired temperature, the engine warm-up is complete, and the seat position is at the predetermined position Is a good one.

The door can be unlocked when getting on the vehicle by bringing the storage unit 4 close to the first transmitter / receiver unit 35 with a door.
The storage unit 4 is mounted in the accommodation chamber 52 while traveling.

Then, after starting the vehicle as described above and driving it to the destination, use the IG switch to stop the engine.
Press 76. When the IG switch 76 is pushed in this way, a reset signal is sent to the IG control unit 75 and the transistor Tr
₅ turns OFF, IG relay 78 turns OFF, and the engine stops. At the same time, the IG control unit 75 sends an OFF signal to the central unit 61, and the central unit 61 stops the operation of the display device 82, the electronic fuel injection device 92, the electronically controlled automatic transmission 101, the air conditioning device 107, and the power seat 115.

Further, the central unit 61 transfers the operating time, the accumulated distance data and the fuel consumption amount data stored in the RAM of the unit 61 to the first memory data area of the memory 17 of the storage unit 4 via the transmission / reception microcomputer 37.

Then, after that, the storage unit 4 may be removed from the accommodation chamber 52, and the operation thereafter is as described above.

Next, in order to return to the original place (home) after use at the destination (for example, after finishing work), first close the storage unit 4 to the first transmitter / receiver unit 35 with a door and open the door. After locking and then mounting the storage unit 4 in the accommodation chamber 52,
Turn on the ST switch 77.

Thus, when the ST switch 77 is turned on, this signal is sent to the central unit 61 via the IG control unit 75, and the central unit 61 causes the microcomputer 102 of the electronically controlled automatic converter 101 to operate, as shown in FIG. A signal for confirming that the gear stage is P (parking) or N (neutral) is sent to the microcomputer 102. The microcomputer 102 determines from the signal from the sensor 103 whether the gear stage is located at P or N. Alternatively, when it is not located at N, the speed is shifted to P, and when the microcomputer 102 confirms that the gear position is at P, a confirmation signal is transmitted to the central unit 61, and the central unit 61
Sends a start permission signal to the IG control unit 75. Then, the transistor Tr ₇ is turned on and the steering lock relay 8
Operate 0 to release the steering lock. At the same time, the transistors Tr ₅ and Tr ₆ are turned on to operate the IG relay 78 and the ST relay 79 to supply power to the ignition device 99 and start the starter motor. Further, at the same time, the electronic fuel injection device 92 operates to inject a fuel amount corresponding to the intake air amount into the intake manifold of the engine, and the engine is started. When the engine speed sensor 87 detects 500 rpm at this start, the microcomputer 93 sends a completion signal to the IG control unit 75 via the central unit 61, and the transistor Tr
Turn OFF ₆ and open ST relay 79 to stop the starter motor.

The engine includes a vehicle speed sensor 70, an engine speed sensor 87, a cooling water temperature sensor 89, an O ₂ sensor 94, a throttle opening sensor 95, an air flow sensor 96, and a crank position sensor 97.
The signal from is input to the microcomputer 93, and the microcomputer 93 controls the fuel injection device 98, the ignition device 99, and the ISC 100 to operate.

Next, when the engine speed becomes idling, the microcomputer 93 sends an idling signal to the central unit 61. At this time, the microcomputer 83 of the display device 82 includes a vehicle speed sensor 70, an engine speed sensor 87, a fuel level sensor 88, a cooling water temperature sensor 89, vehicle body parts (door lock, high beam, rear defogger, hydraulic pressure, charging, hand brake, etc.). ) Signal from the sensor 86, and the display panel 85 displays the vehicle speed, engine speed, remaining fuel amount, cooling water temperature, integrated travel distance, trip travel distance, and the state of each part of the vehicle body.

Next, when the vehicle is made to travel, the microcomputer 83 calculates the travel distance based on the signal from the vehicle speed sensor 70 and sequentially updates the display of the total travel distance and the trip travel distance. This calculated mileage data is sent from the microcomputer 83 to the central unit 61.
Sent to NVRAM and added to the accumulated mileage data in NVRAM. At the same time, the calculated traveling distance data is added to the cumulative distance data transmitted from the first memory data of the memory 17 of the storage unit 4 and stored in the RAM of the central unit 61.

Further, the microcomputer 93 stores the valve opening time of the fuel injection device 98 from the microcomputer 93 in the RAM, and sends the stored data to the central unit 61 at regular intervals. Then,
The central unit 61 adds the above-mentioned store data to the fuel consumption amount data transferred from the memory 17 of the storage unit 4, and stores it at the first memory data address of the RAM. Further, when the OFF signal of the IG relay 78 is input to the IG control unit 75, the data stored in the RAM of the microcomputer 93 is sent to the central unit 61 even before the elapse of a certain time and added to the first memory data 9. To be done.

By the way, when "EFI: SPORT" is input to the microcomputer 93 of the electronic fuel injection device 92 during this traveling, the electronic fuel injection device 92 makes the acceleration increase amount larger than "NORMAL", and the vehicle accelerates faster. Do. When "AT: SPORT" is input to the microcomputer 102 of the electronically controlled automatic transmission 101, the shift timing is moved to the high rotation side of the engine, and the vehicle runs swiftly.

Further, when the air conditioning switch 133 is turned on at this time, the air conditioning device 107 operates so as to keep the vehicle compartment temperature at 26 ° C. (17 ° C.), and the electronic tuning radio 120 receives FM80.

To reach the original place after such a run and stop the engine, press the IG switch 76. After that, the storage unit 4 is removed from the accommodation chamber 52, the door is further opened, and the door is removed. After closing, the storage unit 4 is brought close to the first transmitting / receiving unit 35 with a door to lock the door.

Then, the next morning, the starting time is determined based on the seasonal signal, the scheduled boarding time, and the learning value corrected as appropriate, the engine is started at that time, and then the air conditioner 10
7 works. In this case as well, a flow similar to that of FIGS. 5A to 5I is taken, and if necessary, the learning value is corrected in the same manner as described above, and the corrected learning value is stored in the memory 305, and Used to start the.

A door lock automatic release function may be added to the above engine schedule start. That is, if the example shown in FIG. 5 is used again, the starting time is 7:30 every morning from Monday to Friday, and at this time, the door lock state is automatically released. The flow in this case is almost as shown in FIG. In this case, the set time is not displayed.

In this case, when the door lock is automatically released, the key may not be set, but if the storage unit 4 is not attached to the locking device 51 even at the scheduled time, the engine is stopped and the like. , The door is locked again.

The learning value and the season information may be stored as a coefficient or time for correcting the engine start time, or may be directly stored in the form of the engine start time.

Further, when the air conditioner 107 is started, the strength of the air conditioner 107 may be changed stepwise by map control to simplify the control.

By the way, as described above, when T + 3 has elapsed, the cooling water temperature C'is lower than the specified value, or when the difference between the set temperature L and the passenger compartment temperature K'is larger than the specified value, the learned value is corrected. Or the cooling water temperature C'becomes higher than the specified value after the engine is started, but the cooling water temperature C'becomes the specified value after the engine is started because the cooling water temperature C before the engine is started is lower than the specified value. Slow and therefore air conditioner 10
When the capacity of 7 must be full power, that is, when the air conditioner 107 has to be operated under a specified condition or more, the learning value is corrected, or when a predetermined time (T + 3) has elapsed from the scheduled boarding time, The learned value is corrected stepwise according to the difference between the set temperature L and the passenger compartment temperature K ′, and the set temperature L and the passenger compartment temperature K ′ are set when a predetermined time (T + 3) has elapsed after the scheduled boarding time. The learning value may be continuously corrected according to the difference of

In this case, when the difference between the start time after learning and the start time before learning is smaller than (or less than) the specified value, the engine is started at the time after learning, and this difference is greater than (or more than) the specified value. If it is larger, the engine is started with an intermediate value before and after learning or a starting time before learning as the engine starting time. By doing so, it is possible to realize an effective schedule start at a turning point of the season when the situation changes remarkably in combination with the seasonal information.

The schematic flowcharts for the pre-driving control and the learning value correction as described above are shown in FIGS. 2 (a) and 2 (b), respectively.

Further, the learning value may be corrected based on short-term data or based on long-term (for example, one season or seasonal unit) data. Then, the long-term learning value is reflected in the seasonal information.

Instead of using the cooling water temperature information as described above, the engine lubricating oil temperature, the engine wall temperature, or the temperature near the engine may be used as the engine temperature information.

Also, at the time when the engine is started, the battery voltage is chucked, and if the battery voltage is at the specified value (unit: 1
If the voltage is less than 1.5V, it is considered impossible to start and the horn is rung three times to turn off the system.

Further, even if the battery voltage is equal to or higher than the specified value, if the starter motor is not started even after being energized for 10 seconds, the energization is cut off for 5 seconds, and this is repeated 3 times. If 3
If the motor does not start even after rotating the starter motor, it will not start and will sound the horn three times to turn off the system.

It should be noted that whether or not the engine has started is determined by whether or not the signal from the engine speed sensor 87 exceeds 100 rpm.

A schematic flow chart at the time of starting the engine is shown in FIG. 3 (a).

Here, the operating time, the accumulated distance data, and the fuel consumption amount data of the third memory data can be divided and added to the previous data by operating the keys of the keyboard 125, and the storage unit 4 It is possible to output the traveling distance, the amount of fuel used, the operating time, the average fuel usage fee / km, and the average traveling distance / l to the printer 127 when the user wants to drive using.

Further, the third memory data other than the above, that is, the failure status of each part of the vehicle can be output to the printer 127 by key operation.

Therefore, the portable unit 121 is added to the storage unit 4.
It is possible to transfer the input data to the vehicle simply by inputting control data from outside the vehicle to the vehicle and mounting the storage unit 4 on the vehicle. The storage unit 4 is very compact without a keyboard and can always be used as a clock. It has excellent portability.

Further, since the storage unit 4 can store the control command data of each part of the vehicle, the starting work is easier than the one in which the control data of each part is input after getting on the vehicle, and the operation efficiency when the user is busy as when coming to the office in the morning remarkably. Can be improved.

Further, since the failure data of each part of the vehicle is stored in the storage unit 4, the vehicle can be inspected simply by sending a printout of this data to the maintenance shop. You can save the trouble of taking a car to.

Further, by connecting the portable unit 121 to the telephone via the acoustic coupler, it is possible to directly contact the maintenance shop by telephone, the first aid is transmitted from the maintenance shop to the storage device, and this data is transferred from the storage unit 4 to the central unit 61. First-aid treatment can be performed by sending the data to each part of the vehicle via the.

Further, since the wrist unit 1 which is always used as a wrist watch serves as a key of the automobile, it is not necessary to have a special key, which is convenient for carrying. In addition, if the storage unit 4 can also unlock the doors of the home gate and the entrance, the number of keys can be further reduced, and it becomes unnecessary to have a key holder.

Further, since the storage unit 4 is a wrist watch at all times, it is extremely portable.

Further, by inputting personal schedule data into the second memory data of the memory 17 of the storage unit 4 and displaying it at the time of departure or stop, the schedule of the day can be known, and the address book can be obtained. ， Can also be used as a phone book, and in addition, it is possible to use the keyboard 91 to enter notes while riding, and it can also be used as a notebook.

In addition, when attempting to unlock the door using the storage unit 4, an arbitrary signal from 1 to 10 is received from the vehicle body side, and a code corresponding to each signal is transmitted to the vehicle body side,
If this code matches the vehicle body side, the door lock will be opened, and the code for each time will be different, so there is very little possibility of being stolen.

Further, since the storage unit 4 is charged from the vehicle body, the battery does not go up and the storage unit 4 always operates normally, and the labor for battery replacement is unnecessary.

Again, engine starting using the storage unit will be described with reference to the block diagram of FIG. When the storage unit 4 constituting the portable transmission means SM is locked to the locking device in the vehicle compartment,
The reed switch 49 is turned on and the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 is activated. Then, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 operates the random number generation means to take out an arbitrary number of 1 to 10 which is an initial code. The number of 2 is converted into a first key code by the initial code-first key code conversion means of the microcomputer 37 and stored in the RAM forming the first memory means of the microcomputer 37. In addition, a signal corresponding to the above-mentioned arbitrary number is transmitted to the first transmitting / receiving unit 35 which is the first transmitting means.
Further, the above number is received by the phototransistor 26 of the transmitting / receiving section 15 which is the first receiving means, and is sent to the key unit control means of the microcomputer 16. The key unit control means reads out a key code (second key code) corresponding to the above number from the memory 17 which is the second memory means (storage section of the storage unit 4) and outputs it to the second transmission means (transmission / reception section 1).
5) to the second receiving means RM (the phototransistor 42 of the first transmitting / receiving section 35), and the transmitting / receiving microcomputer 37 forming the judging means JM compares the received second key code with the first key code of RAM. . If they match, a matching signal is sent to the central unit 61 to initialize the door lock / unlock control unit 63 and the like.

Here, when the judging means JM judges that there is a mismatch, the mismatch is stored in the RAM of the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 forming the third memory means, and at the same time, the random number generating means is re-activated and the above-mentioned operation is performed again. This is stored in the third memory means.

Then, the random number generating means is activated again by this mismatch signal to perform the above-mentioned operation. Here again, when a non-match signal is generated, this is stored in the third memory means, and the three-time non-match signal of the third memory means causes the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 as the alarm means to sound the horn as the alarm device.

After such a key code match / mismatch determination, if they match, the permission determination means initializes the IG control unit 75, the microcomputers 83, 93, 102, 117, etc., and at the same time operates the microcomputer 83 to display on the display panel 85. Startable `` STAR
"T OK" is displayed.

Then, the driver presses the ST switch 77 to turn it on,
The signal is sent to the start determination means of the IG control unit 75, which sends a start determination command to the permission determination means of the central unit 61, and the means sends a confirmation signal request command to the P of the microcomputer 102 of the electronically controlled automatic transmission 101. Then, the P / N discriminating means discriminates from the signal from the sensor 103 whether or not there is a gear stage in P / N. When the vehicle speed from 70 is 0, the driver 105 and the actuator 106 are operated to instruct to shift to P. When the vehicle speed is 70, the driver 105 is instructed.
And the actuator 106 is operated to instruct to shift to N.

Then, when the discriminating means confirms that the speed is changed to P, N by the signal from the sensor 103, the discriminating means is the central unit.
A confirmation signal indicating that a start is possible is sent to 61, and the permission determination means of the central unit 61 sends a start permission signal to the start determination means of the IG control unit 75. Then, the start determination means is the start control means (engine start control means C1) of the IG control unit 75.
To the steering lock relay 80, and the steering control relay releases the steering lock.
At the same time, the same means actuates the IG relay 78 and the ST relay 79, sends electric power to the ignition device 99, and starts the starter motor. Then, the microcomputer 93 of the electronic fuel injection device 92, which is the engine rotating means, calculates the intake air amount, injects the fuel amount corresponding to the intake air amount from the fuel injection device 98, and the ignition device 99.
Is activated to send a spark to the spark plug, and the engine is started. When the signal from the engine speed sensor 87 at the time of starting detects that the rotation speed detecting means of the microcomputer 93 has reached 100 rpm, the complete explosion detecting means of the microcomputer 93 controls the start of the IG control unit 75 via the central unit 61. A complete explosion signal is sent to the means, and the start control means uses the ST relay 79.
The power is turned off and the starting work is completed.

If the starter motor rotates and the complete explosion signal is not sent to the start control means even after a lapse of a predetermined time, for example, 5 seconds, the start control means causes the ST relay 79 to be OF for a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds).
Then, the fact that the signal is turned off once is written in the memory, and after this fixed time has passed, the ST relay 79 is turned on again to start the operation. When the starter motor is not rotated by rotating the starter motor three times (OFF is written in the memory three times), the start control means turns off the ST relay 79 and the central unit 6
Send a non-starting signal to the non-starting confirmation means of 1. Then, the non-start confirmation means is displayed on the display device 82 as "NOT START, PLEASE RESE
"T" is displayed for a certain time (for example, 10 seconds), and after the same time has elapsed, the display device 82 is turned off and the IG control unit 75 is turned off. Here, in order to restart the wrist unit 1, the wrist unit 1 is temporarily locked.
Remove from 51 and reattach to perform the above operation.

In the above-described embodiment, when the engine is not started and RESET is repeated and the voltage of the battery B becomes equal to or less than the specified value (for example, 11V), the non-start confirmation means displays “NOT START, PLEA” on the display device 82.
"SE CHARGE THE BATTERY" is displayed, and after a certain period of time, the display device 82 is turned off, and the central unit 61 and the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 are turned off.

When the key codes do not match, an alarm is issued when the key codes do not match three times, similar to when the door lock is released.

Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the engine completes the
Although it has been performed by detecting that pm has been reached, the complete explosion may be detected at a rotation speed of 100 or less, for example, 50 rpm or more, or 100 rpm or more, for example, 300 rpm or more.

Further, FIG. 19 shows a modified example of the engine starting system shown in FIG. 18, and those common to the above-described embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals and described.

First, the storage unit 4 is attached to the locking device 51, and the first and second
When facing the second transmitting / receiving section 36 forming the transmitting / receiving means,
Reed switch 49 with permanent magnet 19 of wrist unit 1
Is turned on and the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 is activated. The operation from the operation of the random number generating means of the transmitting / receiving microcomputer 37 to the determining means of determining whether the first and second key codes match is the same as that of the above-described embodiment, particularly with reference to FIG. . And if the first and second key codes match,
A coincidence signal is sent to the permission determination means, and the engine is started by operating in the same manner as the description of the above-described embodiment, particularly with reference to FIG. When they do not match, the mismatch signal is sent to the RAM of the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 which is the third memory means to store the occurrence of the mismatch signal. Then, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, which constitutes the non-coincidence control means, reads that one non-coincidence signal is stored in the third memory means, operates the random number generation means, and performs the above-mentioned operation again. Here, when the determining means again determines that the first and second key codes do not match, the mismatch signal is stored in the second memory means, and the mismatch control means determines that the mismatch signal of the memory means has occurred twice. When read, the random number generating means is activated again to perform the above-mentioned operation. When the determining means again causes the first and second key codes to be inconsistent with each other, it is stored in the third memory means that the inconsistency signal is generated three times. Then, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, which constitutes the non-coincidence control means, reads the data indicating that the non-coincidence signal is generated three times from the third memory means,
Display unit 82, which is a means for warning of inconsistency,
It is operated via 61 to display “UNMATCH”, and the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 blinks the LED of the second transmission / reception unit 36 to send a signal to the phototransistor 26 of the transmission / reception unit 15 of the wrist unit 1 and the phototransistor 26. Sends a mismatch signal to the microcomputer 16, and the microcomputer 16 operates the display unit 13 which is a mismatch warning means to display "UNMATCH".

Further, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, which is the mismatch control means, activates the mismatch warning means, and simultaneously activates the timer means incorporated in the transmission / reception microcomputer 37. Further, at the same time, the occurrence of one mismatch warning is stored in the RAM of the transmission / reception microcomputer 37 which constitutes the fourth memory means. Here, while the timer means is operating, the first
The constant voltage circuit 38 continues to be connected to the power supply according to a command from the transmission / reception microcomputer 37.

By the way, when the above-mentioned inconsistency warning (“UNMATCH” display) is received, the driver temporarily locks the storage unit 4 with the locking device 51.
Then, the reed switch 49 is turned off. Here, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, which is the non-coincidence control means, indicates that the reed switch 49 is turned off once as the fifth memory means R.
Memory in AM. Subsequently, when the storage unit 4 is brought close to the first transmission / reception unit 35 and the reed switch 49 is turned on by the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 19, the above-described operation is performed again, and the determination means gives the mismatch signal three times to the third memory means. When stored in the memory, the discrepancy control means activates the discrepancy warning means,
"TCH" is displayed and the second mismatch warning is stored in the fourth memory means. Here, when the storage unit 4 is again released from the locking device 51, the second OFF signal of the reed switch 49 is stored in the fourth memory means. When the storage unit 4 is attached to the locking device 51 again, the reed switch 49
It is turned on and the above operation is performed.

Here, when the determining means stores the mismatch signal three times in the third memory means, the mismatch control means receives data from the third memory means that the mismatch has occurred three times and stores it in the fourth memory means. Then, the transmission / reception microcomputer 37, which constitutes the warning control means, reads out that the mismatch signal is stored three times or more in the fourth memory means and the read switch OFF data is stored twice in the fifth memory means, and the warning is issued. A device, that is, a horn (not shown) is sounded for a certain period of time to notify that the vehicle engine is about to be illegally started.

Therefore, when the storage unit 4 is attached to the locking device 51 and the engine is started, when the first and second key codes do not match, they are displayed on the display unit 13 and the display panel 85. Can find out that the person cannot start the starter motor.

In addition, even if the person who tries to steal the vehicle searches for the second key code and tries various codes, the second key code changes each time, so it is difficult to find the second key code, and the third key When it becomes "UNMATCH", an alarm is issued,
The vehicle cannot be stolen.

In addition, in the above-mentioned ones shown in FIG. 18 and FIG.
Whether or not the key code and the second key code match, and if they do not match, the action of issuing an alarm is
It is applied in the same manner as the door lock unlocking operation.

In addition, as the storage unit attaching / detaching mechanism M, as shown in FIG.
In addition to the one shown in (c), a two-action type such as a screw-in type or a mechanism similar to the lens exchange mechanism of a single lens reflex camera can be used.

Further, the power supply system of the storage unit 4 may be a battery exchange system instead of the battery charging system in which the vehicle body is charged as in the above-described embodiment.

Further, the communication between the storage unit 4 and the first and second transmitting / receiving units 35:36 is an optical communication system using LEDs or phototransistors, but other communication systems using magnetism or radio waves may be used.

As for the switches such as the communication switch 23, the case 208 of the storage unit 4 may be formed in a cylindrical shape and the above-mentioned switch may be arranged on the side surface thereof.

A pendant type accessory may be used as the accessory.

Further, a timepiece unit that can be attached to and detached from the base member 2 of the accessory and the locking device 51 is provided separately from the storage unit,
When the storage unit is removed from the accessory when riding, the clock unit may be attached to the accessory instead of the storage unit.

Further, the display unit 13 may not be provided in the storage unit 4, but the display unit may be provided in the portable unit 121 or the instrument panel of the vehicle body.

As an example of the simplest control, if the boarding scheduled time is given, the engine starting time may be obtained from this and the season information. For example, if the scheduled boarding time is AM7.30, the engine should be started 5 minutes before, that is, AM7.25 during the winter season, and 30 seconds before that, that is, AM7.29.30 ′ during the summer season. Of. The flow in this case is shown in FIG.

〔The invention's effect〕

As described in detail above, according to the vehicle pre-driving control device of the present invention, the following effects and advantages can be obtained.

(1) When the scheduled boarding time is input by the scheduled boarding time setting means, the reference time, which is the time when the vehicle or engine state is detected according to the season, is calculated from the output of the seasonal signal generating means to detect the state of the vehicle or the engine. Since the engine starting time is calculated from the output of the detecting means to start the engine, the vehicle or the engine state for calculating the engine starting time can be detected in advance of the engine starting time and at a time relatively close to the engine starting time. Therefore, a more accurate engine start time can be calculated, and a sufficient engine warm-up state at the scheduled boarding time and passenger satisfaction can be improved.

(2) If the desired driving state is not obtained at or near the scheduled boarding time, the reference time of the next pre-control is corrected by the output of the detection means at the same time, so that the difference in temperature between the same season can be calculated. Since the correction can be made in accordance with the latest control result of the pre-control, a more accurate engine start time can be calculated, and a sufficient engine warm-up state and passenger satisfaction at the scheduled boarding time can be improved.

(3) Even if power supply is started before the time required for the boarding scheduled time without always supplying power for pre-operation control, an appropriate schedule start corresponding to the season can be performed.
