Abstract
A method for adjusting an adjusting part of a vehicle including controlling by an electronic detection device configured to detect a potential obstacle in an adjustment path of the adjusting part based on at least one first measured value and generates at least one control signal. The method including storing and correlating, over a defined time period, at least one of a curve of the control signal the first measured value, and a curve of at least one second measured value changing significantly in response to a collision of the adjusting part and an obstacle for a subsequent plausibility check.
Claims19
A method of adjusting an adjusting part of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- adjusting the adjusting part of the vehicle;
- detecting, by an electronic detection device, a potential obstacle in an adjustment path of the adjusting part based on at least one first measured value, measured by the electronic detection device;
- generating at least one control signal to control the adjustment of the adjusting part;
- and
- storing at least one of:
- (a) a first curve of the control signal over a first defined time period in response to the adjusting part colliding with an obstacle and (b) a second curve over a second defined time period extending between
- the at least one first measured value and at least one second measured value measured by the electronic detection device, in response to the adjusting part colliding with the obstacle;
- and
- correlating the curve of the control signal and the at least one first measured value and the at least one second measured value with each other.
A method for of monitoring an adjustment of an adjusting part of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- adjusting the adjusting part along an adjustment path;
- controlling, by an electronic detection device, the adjustment of the adjusting part;
- detecting, by the electronic detection device, a potential obstacle in the adjustment path at least based on one first measured value;
- generating at least one control signal for controlling the adjustment of the adjusting part;
- and
- storing, by the electronic detection device
- over a defined time period, at least one of (a) a curve of the at least one control signal, (b) the first measured value, (c) a position measurement value indicative of an adjustment position of the adjusting part and at least one second measured value significantly changing in response to a collision of the adjusting part.
