Vehicle window glass lifting device and vehicle
First Claim
1. A vehicle window glass lifting device, comprising:
- a drive mechanism arranged on a vehicle door to vertically move a window glass;
a controller comprising hardware configured to control the drive mechanism; and
at least one camera for capturing an image of at least one detection line provided on a vehicle interior side of the window glass, the at least one detection line being along at least a part of an outer edge of the window glass in a state that the door and the window glass are closed, wherein the at least one detection line comprises at least a first detection line and a second detection line provided closer to the window glass in a vehicle width direction than the first detection line,wherein the controller is configured to detect a blocked state in which at least a part of the at least one detection line captured as the image by the at least one camera is blocked by a foreign object, and the controller is configured to cause the drive mechanism to conduct a pinch prevention operation for preventing pinching by the window glass when the blocked state is detected while the window glass is moved by the drive mechanism,wherein the controller is further configured to detect at least a first blocked state in which at least a part of the first detection line is blocked by the foreign object and a second blocked state in which at least a part of the second detection line is blocked by the foreign object, andwherein the controller is further configured to, while the window glass is moved, cause the drive mechanism to conduct a control to reduce an operational speed of the window glass if the first blocked state is detected, and cause the drive mechanism to conduct the pinch prevention operation if the second blocked state is detected.

Abstract
A vehicle window glass lifting device includes a drive mechanism arranged on a vehicle door to vertically move a window glass, a control unit for controlling the drive mechanism, and a camera for capturing an image of a detection line provided on a vehicle interior side of the window glass, the detection line being along at least a part of an outer edge of the window glass in a state that the door and the window glass are closed. The control unit includes a detection means to detect a blocked state in which at least a part of the detection line is blocked by a foreign object, and a pinching prevention means that causes the drive mechanism to conduct a pinch prevention operation for preventing pinching by the window glass when the blocked state is detected by the detection means while the window glass is moved by the drive mechanism.
