Device with a camera unit for image acquisition of the exterior of a motor vehicle
The present invention relates to a device having a camera unit, which serves for image acquisition of the exterior of a motor vehicle, with a camera, which is movably received in a housing of the camera unit between a retracted position and an image acquisition position, according to the preamble of claim 1.
Various devices are known from the prior art with a camera unit, wherein the camera unit is often carried out together with a closing unit, which is also part of the device that can be integrated in the tailgate of a motor vehicle. Such camera units include a camera which is movably received in a housing between the retreat position and image capture position. For example, such camera units can be used for the assisted parking of motor vehicles. If, for example, the reverse gear of the motor vehicle is engaged, the camera moves from the retracted position into the image capturing position, with the camera being at least partially moved out of an opening in the housing of the camera unit.
As a result, the area behind the motor vehicle is captured by the camera and displayed on a display for the driver of the motor vehicle. If the reverse drive is completed and the driver of the motor vehicle takes the reverse gear out again, the camera can be moved from the image capture position back into the retracted position.
According to the present embodiment of the camera unit, a cover element is provided to protect the camera at least in the retracted position from contamination. By the cover member, the opening in the housing of the camera unit can be closed in the retracted position. Consequently, in the transition from the retreat position to the image capture position of the camera, the lid member must be moved between a closed position and an open position when the camera is transferred from the retreat position to the image capture position.
DE 60 2004 003 255 T2 discloses a camera unit which serves as a parking aid for the driver of a motor vehicle. The camera unit has a cover element which can be moved from a closed position into an open position and vice versa. The control of the cover element and the control of the camera, however, has a complex structure with a plurality of individual elements.
From DE 10 2007 052 402 another device with a camera unit is disclosed, which is used for image capture of the exterior of a motor vehicle. The movement of the cover element shown herein relative to the camera involves several movement steps, so that a complex kinematic actuation of the cover element is required. In particular, a linear movement of the camera must be combined with a stroke-pivoting movement of the cover element. The effect of such movements disadvantageously requires considerable design effort and the motion control of the camera and the cover element must always be done against the background of a space to be minimized movement.
From JP 02 031 957 A a camera unit with a camera is known, wherein the movement of the camera between the retraction position and the image acquisition position is generated by a spindle which can be set in rotational motion by a drive unit such as a rotary motor. The camera is attached to a spindle nut that extends along the span direction of the spindle as it rotates. However, such spindle-nut systems are very slow to produce the movement of the camera and possibly a cover element on the camera, since the speed of the nut on the spindle is determined by the pitch of the spindle thread. Furthermore, a spindle-nut system causes higher operating noise, which are perceived as disadvantageous.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a device with a camera unit for image acquisition of the exterior of a motor vehicle, which overcomes the disadvantages of the above-mentioned prior art and has a simple and robust and reliable structure. Also, a simple generation of the movement of the camera is to be made possible.
This object is achieved starting from a device with a camera unit for image acquisition of the exterior of a motor vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1 in conjunction with the characterizing features. Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.
The invention includes the technical teaching that at least a first guide slot for guiding the movement of the camera between the retracted position and the image acquisition position is provided, and wherein on the camera directly or indirectly at least one sliding element is arranged in the guide slot for guiding the movement the camera is guided between the retraction position and the image acquisition position.
The invention is based on the idea to use at least one guide slot, by which the movement of the camera between the retreat position and the image acquisition position can be performed. In the present case, a guide slot is understood to mean a geometrically specially designed guide track in a body, so that a sliding element can slide in the guide track. The guide slot can be configured with a geometry that guides the movement of the camera between the retracted position and the image capture position. Consequently, the geometric configuration of the guideway of the guide slot can be optimized so that the camera without the use of other mechanical components, for example, from a pivoting movement in a linear movement can pass.
As a result, the camera may require a minimum amount of travel between the retreat position and the image capture position, since the geometric configuration of the guide slot can be made accordingly. Of course, the guide slot can also be present on the camera, so that the slider is stationary, for example, on the housing of the camera unit, is arranged, and consequently the same guiding effect of the camera in the housing can be achieved.
According to an advantageous development of the device, a cover element may be provided, which serves at least then for closing an existing opening in the housing when the camera is in the retracted position. The housing has the opening, so that the camera can be at least partially led out of the housing in the image acquisition position. If the camera is in the retracted position, the cover element serves to close the opening in order to prevent the ingress of contaminants, so that in particular the optics of the camera are protected from the contaminants. According to a particularly advantageous embodiment, the cover element is arranged on the camera and mitbewegbar with the movement of the camera between the closed position and the open position.
This results in a particularly advantageous arrangement, since both the camera and the lid member is guided by the same guide slot, since the lid member is moved with the movement of the camera. Overall, the lid member and the camera forms a rigid connection, wherein the rigid connection is formed by a guide element, which can also be referred to as a holding element of the lid member.
It has been found to be particularly advantageous if the cover element is arranged on the camera directly or via at least one guide element, wherein the arrangement of the cover element is preferably formed on the camera as a rigid arrangement, so
- A -that the lid member with the movement of the camera between a closed position and an open position can be moved.
According to a particularly advantageous arrangement of the guide slot this can be provided in the housing of the camera unit. The housing may preferably have two housing walls arranged parallel to one another and at a distance, so that in each case a first guide slot can be made in a first housing wall and a second guide slot can be made in a second housing wall. Consequently, the guide slots are arranged correspondingly opposite, and in each of the two guide slots, a separate sliding element may be guided, wherein the sliding elements may have a cylindrical shape, and the axes of rotation of the cylinder shapes of the sliding elements may be in one another.
The housing of the camera unit can be designed in two parts, wherein a first housing part forms a mounting plate, and the second housing part has a hood shape, so that the camera between the mounting plate and the hood can be integrated. Both in the mounting plate and in the bottom area of the hood is the respective guide slot, so that a good mountability of the camera unit is achieved.
To enable movement of the camera between the retreat position and the image capture position, a drive unit is provided. The operative connection between the drive unit and the camera may comprise a lever element, which is rotatably received within the housing by a rotation axis. Thus, the lever element can perform a pivoting movement about the axis of rotation, wherein the first and the second end position of the pivoting movement of the retreat position or the image acquisition position of the camera correspond. The lever element is preferably arranged within the housing, but the lever element may, depending on the geometric design of the housing, also be present outside the housing.
For example, the housing may be designed as an open housing, as given for example by a frame construction or by a half-shell with, for example, a half-sided opening. The drive unit can be designed as an electromagnetic actuator with a lifting element which is connected to the lever element. Furthermore, the drive unit can be embodied as a rotary motor and / or as a central locking plate, wherein the drive unit designed as a central locking plate can preferably also be used to actuate a central locking of the motor vehicle. If the drive unit is designed as a rotary motor, a drive pinion can be provided, which is driven by the rotary motor.
Further, a hinge element may be present, which is arranged outside of the housing and is connected in the rotational axis to transmit rotation with the lever element, for. B. by a feather key, a splined connection or the like. It is thereby achieved that when the articulation element is articulated by the drive unit, a rotation of the lever element about the axis of rotation can be generated.
It is advantageous if the lever element is designed as a toothed segment, so that the pinion can be meshingly engaged with the toothed segment. If the drive pinion is set in rotation, the toothed segment can perform a pivoting movement about the axis of rotation, which also leads to a pivoting movement of the lever element about the axis of rotation. Regardless of the design of the drive unit, this may have a self-locking, wherein the self-locking is preferably made possible with an electric motor-driven drive unit. Consequently, a movement of the lever element and thus a movement of the camera between the retreat position and the image acquisition position can be caused exclusively by an electrical operation of the drive unit.
In particular, the camera can not be transferred by external action from the retracted position in the image acquisition position.
Preferably, the camera is pivotably connected to the lever element in a connecting axis, so that the position of the camera in the housing over the entire movement of the camera is determined firstly by the guidance of the sliding element in the guide slot and secondly by the position of the connecting axis. Both the connection axis and the sliding elements thereby form axes which are preferably orthogonal to the plane of extent of the guide slot. This results in a two-sided leadership of the camera and the cover element in the housing and in particular between the two housing walls. For a particularly stable 4-point guide is created, which serves to determine the position of the camera and the cover element on the movement between the retracted position and the image acquisition position.
After a further improvement of the camera unit according to the invention, the guide slot can have an S-shaped profile with at least one vertex. The S-shaped course of the guide slot can be designed such that the vertex can be arranged such that the movement space of the camera and preferably of the cover element required to reach the image capture position is minimal and / or the image capture position of the camera and in particular the cover element in the image capture position only one require minimal space.
The camera can be at least partially moved out of the opening in the housing in the image acquisition position, wherein the cover element in its closed position against the opening sealingly engageable. In order to achieve an improved sealing effect, a sealing element can be arranged between the opening and the cover element. In particular, contamination of the camera is avoided, which can even put the camera out of action in the absence of sealing in the outer area of a motor vehicle. In particular, the camera can assume a retracted position, in which a contact force of the cover element results in the opening in order to further improve the sealing effect of the sealing element. The sealing element can be introduced both in the opening and arranged at the complementary to the opening sealing edge of the cover element.
After a further improvement, the S-shaped course of the guide slot can be formed and in particular the vertex arranged such that the movement of the camera and arranged on this moving element of the retreat position in the image acquisition position of a pivoting movement in a substantially linear movement passes. For example, the guide slot in a first portion of a circular path around the axis of rotation correspond around, so that the camera and the lid member first perform a pure pivotal movement about the axis of rotation. At this area of the guide slot, a linear or in a reverse direction extending, arcuate area can connect.
In this section, the camera can leave the orbit and perform a straight motion or reverse pivotal movement out of the opening of the housing. This results in an optimized range of movement of the camera and in particular of the cover element, which may be limited by conversion parts in the tailgate of a motor vehicle. The desired trajectory of the camera from the retraction position in the image acquisition position and vice versa can be specified in a simple manner by the guide link.
Further measures improving the invention will be described in more detail below together with the description of a preferred embodiment of the invention with reference to the figures. It shows:

Figure 4 is a perspective view of the embodiment of the camera unit without housing, wherein the camera is shown in the retracted position and
Figure 5 is a perspective view of the camera unit according to Figure 4, wherein the camera is in the image acquisition position.
Figures 1 and 2 show an embodiment of the inventive device with a camera unit 10, which is used for image capture of the exterior of a motor vehicle. The camera unit 10 is part of the inventive device, wherein as an additional component, an actuating element of a tailgate of a motor vehicle may be present, which is integrated together with the camera unit 10 as a modular unit in the tailgate of a motor vehicle. The image acquisition can serve as a parking aid when the area behind the motor vehicle is detected by the camera unit 10 in order to image the captured image, preferably via a display in the field of vision of the driver of the motor vehicle.
In Figure 1, the camera unit 10 is shown in a position corresponding to the retracted position of the camera 11. FIG. 2 shows the camera unit 10 in an image acquisition position, so that only in FIG. 2 the camera 11 is shown visibly. This can absorb the rear of the motor vehicle and be connected via a cable 31 with the camera 11 associated electronic components in the vehicle. In Figure 1, the camera 1 1 is covered by the housing 12 and the cover member 13, wherein in Figure 2, the camera 1 1 is led out of the opening 25 in the housing 12, so that this position of the camera 1 1 reproduces the image acquisition position. According to the illustration in FIG. 1, the cover element 13 protects the camera 11 from contamination since the opening 25 in the housing 12 of the camera unit 10 is closed by the cover element 13.
The cover element 13 is indirectly but rigidly connected to the camera 11 via a guide element 23. Consequently, there is no relative movement of the cover element 13 to the camera 1 1. The movement guidance of the cover member 13 from the closed position into the open position is thus exclusively by the motion control of the camera 1 1 between the retracted position and the image acquisition position. To guide the camera 11 together with the cover element 13 between the respective positions, a first guide slot 15 is provided, which is introduced in the front region of the housing 12. In the guide slot 15, a sliding element 21 is guided.
In Figure 1, the camera is 1 1 in the retracted position, so that the sliding member 21 in the rear end region of the first guide slot 15 can be seen, the rear end portion forms a stop for the camera 1 1. In contrast, FIG. 2 shows the sliding element 21 in the front end position of the first guide slot 15, which likewise forms a stop for the camera 11. The movement between the retraction position and the image acquisition position of the camera is caused by a pivoting of an articulation element 24, which is designed as a toothed segment 24 and can be pivoted about the axis of rotation 18.
The pivoting of the toothed segment 24 takes place in this embodiment by a drive pinion 14 which is meshingly engaged with the sector gear 24 and can be set in rotation. The drive pinion 14 may be received on a drive shaft by a rotary motor which causes by appropriate right-left rotation movement of the camera 11 and the cover member 13 between the retracted position and the image sensing position. The housing 12 has a first housing part 12a and a second housing part 12b, wherein a plurality of fastening elements 32 are arranged on the second housing part 12b, via which the housing 12 can be mounted on a receiving element or via a drive unit can be attached to the housing 12, the cooperates with the drive pinion 14.
The sliding member 21 can slide in the guide slot 15 between said stops back and forth. The resulting trajectory of the camera 1 1 and the cover element 13 is determined by the geometric design of the guide slot 15.
FIG. 3 shows the camera unit 10 in a rear view, so that the fastening elements 32 can be seen on the rear side of the second housing part 12b. On the rear side of the first housing part 12a shown, there is the second guide slot 16, which runs parallel to the front-side first guide slot 15. The camera 1 1 is shown in the image acquisition position, wherein the attachment of the lid member 13 is shown on the camera 11 via guide elements 23 in the form of an alternative embodiment. In the image acquisition position of the camera 11, the rear sliding element 22 is located in the front end position within the second guide slot 16. According to the exemplary embodiment, the two housing parts 12a and 12b are connected to one another via screw connections 33.
In FIGS. 4 and 5, the camera unit 10 without the housing parts 12a and 12b of the housing 12 is shown. In Figure 4, the camera unit 10 is shown in the retracted position of the camera 1 1, whereas Figure 5 reproduces the camera 1 1 in the image acquisition position. The movement between the retracted position and the image detection position of the camera 1 1 is caused by a rotation of the drive pinion 14. As a result, the toothed segment 24 is pivoted about the axis of rotation 18, wherein the toothed segment 24 is in meshing engagement with the drive pinion 14.
The lever element 17 is connected by means of a projection or a cam rotationally fixed to the toothed segment 24 in the axis of rotation 18, such that the lever element 17 and the toothed segment 24 can rotate together about the axis of rotation 18. If the toothed segment 24 is pivoted about the axis of rotation 18 by the drive pinion 14, the lever element 17 also pivots at the same time. The camera 11 is articulated to the lever element 17 in the connection axis 19. The leadership of the camera 1 1 is effected by sliding elements 21, 22, wherein in the present case only the front sliding member 22 can be seen. The sliding element 22 is guided along the guide slot 15 or 16, which are shown in Figures 1 to 3.
An electrical contact element 30 for connecting a cable 31 adjoins the rear of the camera 11 in order to connect the camera 11 to further electronic components on board the motor vehicle.
According to the illustrated embodiment, the cover element 13 is attached to the housing of the camera 11 via guide elements 23. Consequently, both the movement of the camera 11 between the retracted position and the image-detecting position and the movement of the lid member 13 between the closed position and the open position are equally possible by an articulation of the toothed segment 24 between the positions shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. The axis of rotation 18 is rotatably received in the housing 12, wherein both the lever member 17 and the toothed segment 24 are rotatably mounted on the axis of rotation 18. Through the connection axis 19 may also extend an axis to connect the fork-shaped part of the camera 11, which has a kind of housing, articulated to the lever member 17.
The determination of the position of the camera 11 and the cover element 13 takes place over the entire movement consequently firstly by guiding the sliding elements 21 and 22 in the slot 15 and 16 and secondly by guiding the connecting axle 19 between the lever element 17 and the housing of the camera 1 1.
The invention is not limited in its execution to the above-mentioned preferred embodiment. Rather, a number of variants is conceivable, which makes use of the illustrated solution even with fundamentally different types of use. All of the claims, the description or the drawings resulting features and / or advantages, including design details, spatial arrangements or process steps may be essential to the invention both in itself and in various combinations. In particular, the invention is based on the idea that the camera 1 1 does not eject the cover element 13, since the camera 1 1 is rigidly connected to the cover element 13 via the guide element 23 acting as a holding element.
