Parking operating assisting system
First Claim
1. A parking assistance system comprising:
- imaging means for picking up a backward image of a vehicle;
monitoring means for displaying an image picked up by the imaging means; and
controlling means for superposing an image of a tangent line of a boundary line of an area through which the vehicle may pass when a steering wheel of the vehicle is operated, or a line which is at a predetermined distance outward from the tangent line as a first guide to display on the monitoring means.

Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a parking assistance system capable of intuitively and easily deciding operation points in the parallel parking.
In the parking assistance system according to the present invention, a guide line (43), which is extended from a vehicle (20) in an oblique backward direction and indicates a boundary line used to decide whether or not the vehicle touches other vehicle (31) existing in front of a parking space (30) when parallel parking operations are started, and a guide line (51), which is separated backward from the guide line (43) and indicates another boundary line used to decide whether or not the vehicle touches other vehicle (53) existing at rear of the parking space (30) when the parallel parking operations are completed, are decided previously, and these guide lines as well as a backward picked-up image are displayed on a monitor screen in the parallel parking. Accordingly, the vehicle can be parked on the parking space (30) not to touch other vehicles (31), (53).

6. A parking assistance system comprising:
-
imaging means for picking up a backward image of a vehicle;
monitoring means for displaying an image picked up by the imaging means; and
controlling means for superposing a guide line, which extends from the vehicle in an oblique backward direction, to be a boundary line indicating a criterion used to decide whether or not the vehicle touches an obstacle existing in front of a parking space when parallel parking operations are started on the picked-up image displayed on the monitoring means to display the superposed image on the monitoring means. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10)

7. A parking assistance system comprising:
-
imaging means for picking up a backward image of a vehicle;
monitoring means for displaying an image picked up by the imaging means; and
controlling means for superposing a first boundary line, which extends from the vehicle in an oblique backward direction, indicating a criterion used to decide whether or not the vehicle touches an obstacle existing in front of a parking space when parallel parking operations are started, and a second boundary line, which is apart backward from the first boundary line, indicating a criterion used to decide whether or not the vehicle touches an obstacle existing at rear of the parking space when the parallel parking operations are completed on the picked-up image displayed on the monitoring means to display the superposed image on the monitoring means.
