Abstract
A door opening and closing device includes a motor that outputs driving force causing a back door of a vehicle to be opened or closed, and a controller that controls the motor. The controller executes automatic opening and closing control for automatically opening or closing the back door by the motor, and if the controller detects a stop command causing the back door to be stopped when the automatic opening and closing control is being executed, the controller decreases a target velocity of the back door at a predetermined deceleration α1 until the back door stops.
Claims4
A door opening and closing device, comprising:
- a motor configured to output driving force that causes a back door of a vehicle to be opened or closed;
- and
- a controller configured to control the motor, wherein
- the controller executes, according to an automatic opening and closing command, automatic opening and closing control for automatically opening or closing the back door from a first position to a second position by the motor, the first position being a door position at which the automatic opening and closing control is started, the second position being a door position at which the automatic opening and closing control ends,
- when the controller, during a movement of the back door from the first position to the second position under the automatic opening and closing control, detects a stop command causing the back door to be stopped at a third position between the first position and the second position, the controller decreases target velocity of the back door at a constant deceleration from a time of a detection of the stop command until the back door stops at the third position,
- the controller, according to the automatic opening and closing command, further controls the motor to decrease the target velocity of the back door at a predetermined deceleration from a fourth position to the second position,
- the fourth position is disposed between the first position and the second position, and
- a deceleration rate of the constant deceleration is higher than a deceleration rate of the predetermined deceleration.
