Closing device for a vehicle, and method for operating a closing device
First Claim
1. A method for operating a closing device of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- providing the closing device that includes an element that is movable along a path, a drive, an operating element for detecting a closing request and a detector for detecting a position of an ID transmitter assigned to the vehicle;
moving the movable element via the drive along the path; and
initiating a closing movement of the movable element via the drive based on;
detecting an actuation of the operating element and starting a time window t upon actuation of the operating element;
detecting whether the ID transmitter assigned to the vehicle is in a first position region within the time window t after the actuation of the operating element; and
determining if the ID transmitter assigned to the vehicle is not detected in the first position region for at least a time duration s which begins within the time window t, after being detected in the first position region within the time window t.

Abstract
A closing device includes an element which can be moved along a path, a drive, an operating element for detecting a closing request, and detector for detecting the position of an ID transmitter paired with the vehicle. The drive is designed to move the movable element along the path, and a closing movement of the movable element is started via the drive if the actuation of an operating element is detected, if an ID transmitter paired with the vehicle is detected in a first position region within a time window t following the actuation of the operating element, and if the ID transmitter paired with the vehicle is not detected in the first position region at least for a duration s, which begins at least within the time window t, after being detected in the first position region within the time window t.
