がブラシによって破損させられるおそれが生じる。Several automatic wiper control devices have been proposed. When washing a car at an automatic car wash using such an automatic wiper control device, the key switch may be turned on and the car washed without the driver present, but the rainfall detector cannot distinguish between rain and water washing. Therefore, there is a risk that the wiper may be damaged by the brush.
本発明は、洗車の際の上記の問題を解消した自動ワイパ
制御装置を提供することを目的とする。SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide an automatic wiper control device that solves the above-mentioned problems during car washing.

電圧Vsと比較し、降雨の有無を判定する。In the accompanying drawings showing an embodiment of the present invention, reference numeral 1 denotes a raindrop sensor, which is of a type that detects changes in light transmission characteristics due to raindrops adhering to a front glass, for example. Reference numeral 2 denotes an amplifier which amplifies the signal from the raindrop sensor 1 and applies it to the comparator 3. The comparator 3 compares the output voltage from the amplifier 2 with a predetermined reference voltage Vs, and determines the presence or absence of rain.

号に応答してワイパモータ8を動作させる。Reference numeral 4 denotes a pressure-sensitive switch, which is arranged in the driver's seat and is configured to close, for example, when the driver is in the vehicle. Reference numeral 5 denotes a chattering prevention circuit consisting of, for example, a C-R time constant circuit. 6 is an AND circuit which generates an output signal corresponding to the logical product of the output signal of the comparator 3 and the output signal of the chattering prevention circuit 5. The 7F wiper drive circuit operates the wiper motor 8 in response to the output signal of the AND circuit 6.

の出力信号のレベルが低下し、比較器3の出力はハイレ
ベルとなる。In the above configuration, when a key switch (not shown) is turned on, an operating voltage is applied to each circuit, and the device becomes ready for operation. If water droplets adhere to the front glass, the level of the output signal of the raindrop sensor 1 decreases due to diffuse reflection caused by the water droplets, and the output of the comparator 3 becomes high level.
この時、運転者が乗車し、感圧スイッチが閉じていると
、AND回路6の他方の入力端子もハイレベルとなるの

、運転者はワイパの自動作動スイッチあるいはキースイ
ッチを開くなどの処置により、ワイパの動作を直ちにに
停止することができる。At this time, if the driver gets on the vehicle and the pressure-sensitive switch is closed, the other input terminal of the AND circuit 6 also goes high, so the output of the AND circuit 6 goes high. Therefore, the wiper drive circuit 7 receives the high level and drives the wiper motor 8. In this case, if the wiper is being washed with water, the driver can immediately stop the wiper operation by opening the wiper's automatic operation switch or key switch.

。On the other hand, when water droplets are detected by the raindrop sensor 1 and the driver is not in the vehicle, the pressure-sensitive switch 4 is open, so the logical condition P of the AND circuit does not hold, and its output is Since the level is low, the wiper drive circuit 7 does not operate the wiper motor 8. It goes without saying that when the raindrop sensor 1 does not detect waterdrops, the logical condition of the AND circuit 6 is satisfied and the wiper motor 8 does not operate.
なお、本発明の実施に際して、運転者を検出する手段は
、感圧スイッチに限らず他の物を使用することは、必要
により選択できる事項である。In carrying out the present invention, the means for detecting the driver is not limited to the pressure-sensitive switch, and the use of other means can be selected as necessary.
以上のように本発明によれば、水洗の際にワイパが非所
望に動作することが防止される効果がある。As described above, the present invention has the effect of preventing the wiper from operating undesirably during washing.
