Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In the above-cited Document 1, since the diagnosis is automatically started when the vehicle is IG-ON or the like, when the vehicle owner (end user) leaves the vehicle for inspection or repair at a dealership or the like, in addition to the operation by the vehicle owner, the diagnosis is automatically started for operations such as engine tests by the dealership. As a result, it may be reflected in the diagnosis result of the vehicle owner, and the vehicle owner may feel uncomfortable.

[0005] An object of the present invention is to provide an operation diagnosis system capable of temporarily suspending vehicle operation diagnosis as needed.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] The present invention is premised on a driving diagnosis system that generates a driving diagnosis result calculated using a detection value that is a physical quantity that changes based on at least one of driving, steering, and braking of a vehicle or a physical quantity that changes when a predetermined operation member is operated. This driving diagnosis system includes a database that acquires and stores information on the detection value from the vehicle, a diagnosis unit that performs a driving diagnosis based on the information from the database, and an aggregation data transmission unit that aggregates and transmits information on the diagnosis. It also includes a user interface unit that receives and stores information from the driving diagnosis device, a first command unit that outputs a suspension command when a request operation for suspending the diagnosis is received, and a second command unit that outputs a suspension release command when a request operation for releasing the suspension is received. The driving diagnosis device suspends any one of the diagnosis process of the diagnosis unit, the information acquisition process of the database, the aggregation process of the aggregation data transmission unit, and the storage process of the UI unit when the suspension command is received during the diagnosis by the diagnosis unit, and releases the suspension when the suspension release command is received during the suspension.

[0007] Due to this specific matter, during the diagnosis, when a request operation for suspension is performed by the vehicle owner's mobile terminal or the vehicle sales dealer's terminal (referred to as the dealer terminal), it becomes possible to suspend the diagnosis by the diagnosis unit. Also, during the suspension of the diagnosis, when a request operation for releasing the suspension is performed by the mobile terminal or the dealer terminal, it becomes possible to release the suspension of the diagnosis.

[0008] As a result, it is possible to cancel the driving diagnosis based on the vehicle driving data during maintenance and inspection by, for example, a vehicle sales dealer other than the vehicle owner, so that only the vehicle owner can manage the driving diagnosis result.

Effect of the Invention

[0009] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a driving diagnosis system capable of suspending the driving diagnosis of a vehicle as needed.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0011] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of an operation diagnosis system 1 according to the present embodiment, a vehicle 2 that provides information for operation diagnosis to the operation diagnosis system 1, and a mobile terminal 3A (a mobile terminal installed with application software for using the operation diagnosis system 1) owned by a user (contractor) of the operation diagnosis system 1. These operation diagnosis system 1, vehicle 2, mobile terminal 3A, and dealer terminal 3B can perform data communication via a network. Note that in FIG. 1, only one vehicle 2 is shown, but the operation diagnosis system 1 can receive information for operation diagnosis from a plurality of vehicles 2.

[0012] -Configuration of the Vehicle- As shown in FIG. 1, the vehicle 2 includes an ECU (Electronic Control Unit) 21, wheel speed sensors 22, an accelerator opening sensor 23, a steering angle sensor 24, a camera 25, a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver 26, and a wireless communication device 27. The vehicle 2 is assigned a vehicle ID as individual information of the vehicle 2. In this embodiment, the vehicle 2 is manufactured by the entity X (automobile manufacturer). Each of the sensors 22 to 24, the camera 25, the GPS receiver 26, and the wireless communication device 27 is connected to the ECU 21. The ECU 21 includes a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, a storage, a communication I / F, and an input / output I / F that are communicably connected to each other via a bus. The network includes a communication network of a communication carrier and the Internet. The wireless communication device 27 of the vehicle 2 enables data communication with the driving diagnosis system 1 via the network.

[0013] The wheel speed sensors 22, the accelerator opening sensor 23, the steering angle sensor 24, and the GPS receiver 26 repeatedly detect a physical quantity (such as vehicle speed, steering angle, deceleration G, etc.) that changes based on at least one of the running, steering, and braking of the vehicle 2 or a physical quantity (such as accelerator operation amount, brake operation amount, steering operation amount, etc.) that changes when a predetermined operation member is operated, every time a predetermined time elapses. Specifically, the wheel speed sensor 22 detects the rotational speed of the wheels of the vehicle 2. The accelerator opening sensor 23 detects the operation amount (accelerator opening) of the accelerator pedal. The steering angle sensor 24 detects the operation amount (steering angle) of the steering wheel. The GPS receiver 26 receives GPS signals transmitted from GPS satellites to acquire information regarding the position where the vehicle 2 is traveling (hereinafter referred to as "position information"). The detection values detected by each of the sensors 22 to 24 and the GPS receiver 26 are transmitted to the ECU 21 via a CAN (Controller Area Network) provided in the vehicle 2 and stored in the storage of the ECU 21. Also, the camera 25 repeatedly images a subject located outside the vehicle 2 every time a predetermined time elapses. The image data acquired by the camera 25 is transmitted to the ECU 21 via the CAN and stored in the storage.

[0014] Detection value data, which is data representing the detection values detected by each of the sensors 22 to 24 and the GPS receiver 26, and the image data acquired by the camera 25 are transmitted from the wireless communication device 27 to the database (CAN DB) 4 via the network every time a predetermined time elapses, and are recorded in the database 4. Hereinafter, these detection value data and image data may also be collectively referred to as detection values. All the detection value data and image data (detection values) recorded in the database 4 are recorded in association with information regarding the vehicle ID, information regarding the acquired time, and the position information acquired by the GPS receiver 26. Note that the detection values transmitted from the vehicle 2 to the database 4 are not limited to those described above, and include various types of information that can be used for driving diagnosis. For example, it may include operation detection information of an operation lever of a direction indicator (so-called blinker), operation detection information of a shift lever, and the like.

[0015] -Configuration of Driving Diagnosis System- The driving diagnosis system 1 has a configuration including the database 4, a diagnosis server 5, and a user interface server (hereinafter referred to as a UI server) 6. These database 4 and each server 5, 6 are arranged in one building and are connected by, for example, a LAN (Local Area Network). That is, the driving diagnosis system 1 is constructed as a cloud computing system. In the present embodiment, the diagnosis server 5 is managed by the main body X. On the other hand, the UI server 6 is managed by the main body Y (system management company: for example, an automobile subscription service provider, etc.).

[0016] (Database) As described above, the database 4 receives various detection value data and image data (information for driving diagnosis) from the vehicle 2 every time a predetermined time elapses or every time a change in the physical quantity occurs, and records the various data.

[0017] Each of the servers 5, 6 includes a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, a storage, a communication I / F, and an input / output I / F.

[0018] (Diagnostic Server) Inside the diagnostic server 5, an operation diagnostic device 5A is constructed. That is, the operation diagnostic device 5A belongs to the diagnostic server 5. The operation diagnostic device 5A includes a diagnostic unit 51 and a summary data transmission unit 52.

[0019] The diagnostic unit 51 includes a data reception unit 51a, a Trip generation unit 51b, a safety diagnostic unit 51c, an eco diagnostic unit 51d, a recommendation information generation unit 51e, and a diagnostic result transmission unit 51f as functional units realized by a control program stored in the ROM of the diagnostic server 5.

[0020] The data reception unit 51a receives various detected values (detected value data and image data) stored in the database 4 at predetermined timings. For example, it receives every time 1Trip (the period from when the start switch of the vehicle 2 is turned ON until it is turned OFF) ends. The timing for receiving these various detected values is not limited to this.

[0021] The Trip generation unit 51b generates information (associating Trip with each data) that assigns various detected values for each 1Trip of the vehicle 2.

[0022] The safety diagnostic unit 51c diagnoses the safe operation of the vehicle 2. For example, it diagnoses information related to safety such as sudden acceleration, sudden deceleration, and sudden turning of the vehicle 2 (information related to safe operation based on the above-described physical quantities), and outputs the diagnostic results to the recommendation information generation unit 51e and the diagnostic result transmission unit 51f.

[0023] The eco diagnostic unit 51d diagnoses the eco operation of the vehicle 2 (for example, operation to reduce CO2 emissions). For example, it diagnoses information related to eco operation such as the operation amount of the accelerator pedal by the driver (information related to eco operation based on the above-described physical quantities), and outputs the diagnostic results to the recommendation information generation unit 51e and the diagnostic result transmission unit 51f.

[0024] The recommendation information generation unit 51e receives information (diagnosis result information) from the safety diagnosis unit 51c and the eco diagnosis unit 51d, and generates recommendation information according to them. For example, when receiving a diagnosis result such as a high frequency of sudden deceleration as a diagnosis result related to safe driving, or when receiving a diagnosis result such as a large operation amount per unit time of the accelerator pedal (a high frequency of sudden acceleration operation) as a diagnosis result related to eco driving, corresponding recommendation information will be generated. The generated recommendation information is output to the diagnosis result transmission unit 51f.

[0025] The diagnosis result transmission unit 51f receives diagnosis information related to safe driving from the safety diagnosis unit 51c, diagnosis information related to eco driving from the eco diagnosis unit 51d, and recommendation information from the recommendation information generation unit 51e, and transmits the information to the aggregated data transmission unit 52.

[0026] The aggregated data transmission unit 52 includes a data reception unit 52a, a Trip aggregation unit 52b, a Trip recommendation information generation unit 52c, a Trip score generation unit 52d, and a data transmission unit 52e as functional units realized by the control program.

[0027] The data reception unit 52a receives diagnosis information related to safe driving, diagnosis information related to eco driving, and recommendation information transmitted from the diagnosis result transmission unit 51f.

[0028] The Trip aggregation unit 52b aggregates data for each Trip from each piece of information received by the data reception unit 52a.

[0029] The Trip recommendation information generation unit 52c generates recommendation information for each Trip based on the data for each Trip aggregated by the Trip aggregation unit 52b. That is, from the diagnosis information related to safe driving for each Trip, recommendation information useful for safe driving is generated as needed, and from the diagnosis information related to eco-driving for each Trip, recommendation information useful for eco-driving is generated as needed. These recommendation information are generated as information for each Trip. As an example, when it is diagnosed that a sharp steering (a situation where the change amount of the operation amount of the steering wheel per unit time is equal to or greater than the threshold value) has occurred at a speed equal to or higher than a predetermined speed as diagnosis information related to safe driving, recommendation information for proposing the installation of a system (such as a blind spot monitor system) that detects the degree of approach of other vehicles traveling in the adjacent lane and notifies the driver is generated. Also, when it is diagnosed that a situation has occurred where the switching frequency of the shift lever and the operation frequency of the steering wheel are equal to or higher than the threshold value at a speed equal to or lower than a predetermined speed, recommendation information for proposing the installation of a system (such as an advanced park system) that automatically parks vehicle 2 in a parking space is generated.

[0030] The Trip score generation unit 52d generates an index (score) for driving evaluation based on the diagnosis information related to safe driving for each Trip and the diagnosis information related to eco-driving for each Trip. For example, a five-level evaluation is performed as an evaluation related to safe driving and eco-driving, and evaluation information for safe driving and eco-driving for each Trip is generated. As this evaluation information, the higher the frequency of driving operations leading to safe driving (driving operations that do not cause sudden acceleration, sudden deceleration, or sudden turning), and the higher the frequency of driving operations leading to eco-driving (driving operations that can reduce CO2 emissions), the higher the score will be generated.

[0031] The data transmission unit 52e transmits the recommendation information for each Trip and the score information for each Trip to the UI server 6.

[0032] (UI server) Inside the UI server 6, a UI section 6A is constructed. That is, the UI section 6A belongs to the UI server 6. The UI section 6A includes a monthly recommendation diagnosis section 61, a monthly recommendation aggregation section 62, and a monthly recommendation transmission section 63 as functional sections realized by a control program stored in the ROM of the UI server 6.

[0033] The monthly recommendation diagnosis section 61 receives the recommendation information for each Trip and the information on the score for each Trip from the aggregated data transmission section 52 at predetermined timings, and performs a diagnosis regarding the recommendation for these information over a one-month period. For example, it accumulates each piece of information starting from the 1st of each month, and performs a diagnosis regarding the recommendation based on each piece of information received by the end of the current month. Therefore, this monthly recommendation diagnosis section 61 corresponds to the second diagnosis section (the second diagnosis section that performs a diagnosis regarding the recommendation over a certain period) in the present invention.

[0034] The monthly recommendation aggregation section 62 aggregates the diagnosis information calculated by the monthly recommendation diagnosis section 61, and calculates, for example, the ratio for each type of diagnosis result. For example, in the diagnosis regarding safe driving, it calculates the ratio of the number of occurrences of sudden acceleration, sudden deceleration, and sudden turning of the vehicle 2, etc.

[0035] The monthly recommendation transmission section 63 generates monthly recommendation information according to the aggregation result of the monthly recommendation aggregation section 62, and transmits that information to the mobile terminal 3A in response to a request from the mobile terminal 3A. Also, at the timing when the monthly recommendation information is generated, a Push notification may be sent to the mobile terminal 3A. The monthly recommendation information generated here is also generated as recommendation information useful for safe driving and eco-driving as needed from the diagnosis information (information over a one-month period), similar to the Trip recommendation information generated by the Trip recommendation information generation section 52c described above. Therefore, these monthly recommendation aggregation section 62 and monthly recommendation transmission section 63 correspond to the second aggregated data transmission section (the second aggregated data transmission section that aggregates and transmits information regarding the recommendation over a certain period) in the present invention.

[0036] As described above, the UI server 6 in this embodiment handles information related to monthly recommendations. There may be cases where it is preferable to update thresholds and logic for diagnosis from the user's statistical data. There may also be cases where it is preferable to change for marketing reasons. The frequency of updating these thresholds and logic is higher compared to those with fixed thresholds to some extent, such as sudden acceleration and sudden deceleration. In view of this point, in this embodiment, the operation diagnosis system 1 is constructed such that the server handling information with a high update frequency is the UI server 6. That is, by implementing the processing of information with a relatively high update frequency in the UI unit 6A belonging to the UI server 6, the update processing of the entire system can be accelerated compared to the case where this information processing is performed in the operation diagnosis device 5A.

[0037] In addition, in this embodiment, since the UI server 6 is configured to handle information related to monthly recommendations, the diagnosis server 5 will handle information related to Trip recommendations instead of the UI server 6. Therefore, when transmitting diagnosis information and recommendation information for each Trip to the mobile terminal 3A, these information created in the diagnosis server 5 will pass through the UI server 6 and be directly transmitted to the mobile terminal 3A.

[0038] The UI server 6 can send and receive various information to and from the mobile terminal 3A and the dealer terminal 3B through the Internet.

[0039] - Information transmission and reception operation - Next, the information transmission and reception operation by the operation diagnosis system 1 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to the sequence diagram in FIG. 2. This sequence diagram shows the transmission and reception of information among the vehicle 2, the database (CAN DB) 4, the diagnosis unit 51, the aggregated data transmission unit 52, the UI unit 6A, the mobile terminal 3A, and the dealer terminal 3B.

[0040] First, vehicle data (detection value data and image data) is transmitted from vehicle 2 to database 4 at predetermined timings (communication operation A in FIG. 2). After the vehicle data received by database 4 is accumulated for a certain period, it is transmitted to diagnosis unit 51 at predetermined timings (e.g., every time 1 Trip ends) (communication operation B in FIG. 2). In diagnosis unit 51, the above-described diagnosis processes etc. (processes of Trip generation unit 51b, safety diagnosis unit 51c, eco diagnosis unit 51d, and recommendation information generation unit 51e) are performed, and the result information is transmitted to aggregation data transmission unit 52 (communication operation C in FIG. 2). In aggregation data transmission unit 52, after aggregation processes etc. of the received data (processes of Trip aggregation unit 52b, Trip recommendation information generation unit 52c, and Trip score generation unit 52d) are performed, this aggregated data is transmitted to UI unit 6A (communication operation D in FIG. 2).

[0041] In UI unit 6A, after the accumulation process of this aggregated data (accumulation process for one month) is performed, the diagnosis process of monthly recommendation diagnosis unit 61 and the aggregation process of monthly recommendation aggregation unit 62 described above are performed.

[0042] Also, for example, when a system user such as a vehicle owner (hereinafter referred to as the system user) operates mobile terminal 3A, starts the application software pre-installed in the mobile terminal 3A, and performs a data transmission request operation on the application software, the request information is transmitted to UI unit 6A (communication operation E in FIG. 2). When UI unit 6A receives the request information, it creates UI data for transmission (monthly recommendation information etc. for transmission) and transmits the UI data (monthly recommendation information etc.) to mobile terminal 3A (communication operation F in FIG. 2). Thereby, the system user can confirm the evaluation result of vehicle operation in one month and the recommendation information regarding the recommended system upgrade by looking at the display screen of mobile terminal 3A. Incidentally, the system user can also confirm the diagnosis information for each Trip and the recommendation information for each Trip by operating mobile terminal 3A.

[0043] Furthermore, during the diagnosis of the operation of the vehicle 2, for example, when the system user operates the mobile terminal 3A or the dealer terminal 3B to start the application software pre-installed on the mobile terminal 3A or the dealer terminal 3B and performs a request operation to temporarily stop the diagnosis on the application software, the diagnosis can be temporarily stopped. Also, by performing a request operation to cancel the temporary stop, it is possible to cancel the temporary stop of the diagnosis.

[0044] Note that when the mobile terminal 3A or the dealer terminal 3B receives a request operation for temporarily stopping the diagnosis from the system user, it inputs a temporary stop command to the diagnosis unit 51 of the driving diagnosis device 5A via the UI unit 6A. Also, when it receives a request operation for canceling the temporary stop from the system user, it inputs a temporary stop cancellation command to the diagnosis unit 51 of the driving diagnosis device 5A via the UI unit 6A. That is, the mobile terminal 3A and the dealer terminal 3B correspond to the first command unit and the second command unit described in the claims. And when the driving diagnosis device 5A receives the temporary stop command during the diagnosis of the diagnosis unit 51, it temporarily stops the diagnosis. Also, when it receives the temporary stop cancellation command during the temporary stop, it cancels the temporary stop.

[0045] Specifically, FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the process of temporarily stopping and canceling the temporary stop of the diagnosis by the driving diagnosis device 5A in the present embodiment.

[0046] First, in step S1, it is determined whether a temporary stop command has been received during the diagnosis of the diagnosis unit 51. In this step S1, if the determination is negative, the process returns to the driving diagnosis program of the vehicle 2. On the other hand, if the determination is positive, in step S2, during the temporary stop of the diagnosis, it is determined whether a temporary stop cancellation command has been received.

[0047] In this step S2, if a negative determination is made, the diagnosis is temporarily stopped in step S3 and then the process returns to step S2. On the other hand, if an affirmative determination is made, the temporary stop is released in step S4, and then the process returns to the driving diagnosis program of the vehicle 2.

[0048] -Effects of the Embodiment- As described above, in this embodiment, during the diagnosis of the driving of the vehicle 2, when a request operation for temporary stop is performed by the mobile terminal 3A or the dealer terminal 3B, it is possible to temporarily stop the diagnosis by the diagnosis unit 51. Also, during the temporary stop of the diagnosis, when a request operation for canceling the temporary stop is performed by the mobile terminal 3A or the dealer terminal 3B, it is possible to cancel the temporary stop of the diagnosis.

[0049] Thereby, it is possible to cancel the diagnosis of the driving based on the operation driving data during the maintenance inspection by a dealer other than the vehicle owner, so that the diagnosis result of the driving can be managed only by the vehicle owner, and a beneficial diagnosis result of the driving can be provided for the vehicle owner.

[0050] -Other Embodiments- Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and all modifications and applications included in the scope of the claims and the scope equivalent thereto are possible.

[0051] (1) For example, the diagnosis items to be placed in the UI unit 6A may be the diagnosis results based on statistics such as the user's own ranking (such as the ranking in safe driving) and deviation values among a plurality of users using the driving diagnosis system 1, or map information. That is, it may be a diagnosis result combined with information other than the information obtained only from one vehicle 2 used by the user.

[0052] (2) The information on the diagnosis result and the recommendation information may be made available for confirmation not only on the mobile terminal 3A but also on a web page.

[0053] (3) In the above-described embodiment, an example is given in which the mobile terminal 3A and the dealer terminal 3B output a suspension command and a suspension release command for the driving diagnosis. However, the present invention is not limited to this alone. For example, the present invention also includes a case where the dealer terminal 3B is configured not to be able to output a suspension command and a suspension release command for the driving diagnosis.

[0054] (4) In the above-described embodiment, an example is given in which the suspension command and the suspension release command output from the mobile terminal 3A and the dealer terminal 3B are input to the diagnosis unit 51 of the driving diagnosis device 5A via the UI unit 6. However, the present invention is not limited to this alone.

[0055] For example, it is possible to configure the suspension command and the suspension release command output from the mobile terminal 3A and the dealer terminal 3B to be directly input to the diagnosis unit 51 of the driving diagnosis device 5A. Also, for example, the suspension command and the suspension release command output from the mobile terminal 3A and the dealer terminal 3B can be configured to be directly input to at least one of the aggregation data transmission unit 52 of the driving diagnosis device 5A and the database (CAN DB) 4 or input via the UI unit 6 as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 2.

[0056] (5) In the above-described embodiment, an example is given in which the diagnosis of the diagnosis unit 51 is suspended when the driving diagnosis device 5A receives a suspension command. However, the present invention is not limited to this alone.

[0057] For example, when the driving diagnosis device 5A receives a suspension command, it can be configured to suspend any one of the information acquisition process of the database 4, the aggregation process of the aggregation data transmission unit 52, and the storage process of the UI unit 6A. Incidentally, when suspending the information acquisition process of the database 4, it becomes unnecessary to execute each process after the information acquisition process, so it is possible to reduce the load of the information processing. Also, when suspending the storage process of the UI unit 6A, it becomes possible to restore the information acquired in the information acquisition process of the database 4 or the information aggregated in the aggregation process by the aggregation data transmission unit 52 if the suspension is incorrect.
