Apparatus for controlling opening/closing body

摘要

An apparatus for controlling an opening/closing body for automatically opening/closing the opening/closing body. The apparatus includes a displacement body movable and displaced between movable regions including a closing region, a releasing region and a neutral region, a neutral detecting first switch configured to output a first detection signal in response to passage of the displacement body through a first boundary portion of the neutral region, a neutral detecting second switch configured to output a second detection signal in response to passage of the displacement body through a second boundary portion of the neutral region, and a control unit which, when effecting a neutral returning movement for returning the displacement body from the closing region to the neutral region, stores switchover information indicative of switchover of the first detection signal detected in the course of the latch closing movement and to effect the neutral returning movement in accordance with the switchover information.

主权项

1. An apparatus for controlling an opening/closing body for automatically opening/closing the opening/closing body, the apparatus comprising:
a latch for drawing in and releasing a striker; a displacement body for operating said latch via a latch operating mechanism, said displacement body being movable and displaced between movable regions including a latch closing region for drawing in said latch, a latch releasing region for releasing said latch and a neutral region located between said latch closing region and said latch releasing region; a detecting section configured to output a detection signal in response to passage of the displacement body through a boundary portion of the neutral region on the side of the closing region; a control unit which, when effecting a neutral returning movement for returning the displacement body from the closing region to the neutral region, stores switchover information indicative of switchover of the detection signal detected in the course of the latch closing movement and to effect the neutral returning movement in accordance with the switchover information; and wherein said displacement body is controlled to operate the latch operating mechanism to pivot said latch toward a pawl that restricts pivotal movement of said latch after the latch closing movement of said displacement body.
