Abstract
An in-vehicle equipment control system includes a wire harness configured to be connected with a power source mounted on a lower side of a vehicle than a ceiling of the vehicle, and provided in an extending manner from the lower side to the ceiling along a pillar of a vehicle body; and a ceiling side controller configured to control an equipment provided at least to the ceiling, the ceiling side controller being provided to the ceiling, electric power of the power source being supplied to the ceiling side controller via the wire harness passing through the pillar.
Claims10
An in-vehicle equipment control system comprising:
- a wire harness configured to be connected with a power source mounted on a lower side of a vehicle than a ceiling of the vehicle, and provided in an extending manner from the lower side to the ceiling along a pillar of a vehicle body;
- and
- a ceiling side controller configured to control an equipment provided at least to the ceiling, the ceiling side controller being provided to the ceiling, electric power of the power source being supplied to the ceiling side controller via the wire harness passing through the pillar, wherein
- the wire harness includes at least one common transmission channel capable of transmitting a plurality of information signals used when the ceiling side controller controls the equipment, between the lower side and the ceiling of the vehicle along the pillar,
- the ceiling side controller controls the equipment to be controlled by using the electric power supplied and the information signals retained in a lower side controller arranged on the lower side of the vehicle, the information signals being received from the common transmission channel,
- the plurality of information signals include an IG on/off signal, a TAIL on/off signal and an ACC on/off signal as a vehicle information signal,
- the ceiling side controller has a first relay part, a second relay part and a third relay part,
- the first relay part has a switching function and a fuse function, and generates an IG power source based on an electric power distributed based on the electric power supplied from the power source line and the IG on/off signal,
- the second relay part has a switching function and a fuse function, and generates a TAIL power source based on an electric power distributed based on the electric power supplied from the power source line and the TAIL on/off signal, and
- the third relay part has a switching function and a fuse function, and generates an ACC power source based on an electric power distributed based on the electric power supplied from the power source line and the ACC on/off signal.
