System and method for operating gate

Abstract

A system for operating a gate of a vehicle may include a laser diode unit that shows step positions for operating the gate by radiating a plurality of laser points onto the ground, an ultrasonic wave sensor unit that measures the distance between the bottom of the rear bumper and the step positions and senses step input from a change in the distance due to the user stepping on the step positions, a gate driving unit that opens / closes the gate, using a driving part, and a control unit that controls the opening / closing operation of the gate driving unit on the basis of information on a step-on status kept for a predetermined time by the user which may be found by the ultrasonic wave sensor unit.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority from Korean Patent Application No. 10-2012-0073072 filed on Jul. 4, 2012, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a system and method for operating a vehicle door. Background technique [0004] In general, users of RVs (Recreational Vehicles) such as MPVs (Multipurpose Vehicles) and SUVs (Sports Utility Vehicles) usually intend to pack more luggage than users of regular sedans. [0005] In addition, with the improvement of income levels and the improvement of working conditions due to the Friday working day system, more people want to enjoy various leisure and leisure life, so the demand for RV continues to grow. [0006] On the other hand, in the past, when the user approached the vehicle carrying goods with both hands, he had to put the goods on the ground and then use the remote con...

Problems solved by technology

[0010] However, the problem with this approach is that situations such as accidental opening of the car door may occur, because the method of opening the car door through user input is simple

[0011] In addition, in the related art, the user needs to swing his / her feet so that the sensor senses the action of blocking the laser beam, but the user carrying a lot of goods may lose his / her balance, making this method difficult to use

[0012] In addition, the problem in the patent literature is that it is difficult to control the door fully automatically when the door is closed to carry a large amount of goods in the vehicle, since only opening the door is described in the literature.
