Zur Überwachung des Umfelds eines Fahrzeugs sind zahlreiche Systeme bekannt. Derartige Systeme dienen beispielsweise zur Realisierung einer Unfallverhütung ("Precrash"), einer automatischen Fahrsteuerung ("automatic cruise control" (ACC)), der Beobachtung des toten Winkels bezüglich des Gesichtsfeldes des Fahrers oder einer Unterstützung des Fahrers bei schlechten Sichtverhältnissen, insbesondere bei Dunkelheit. Es kommen Systeme zum Einsatz, welche sich unterschiedlicher Sensoren bedienen. Bekannt sind beispielsweise Radarsensoren, Lidarsensoren, Ultraschallsensoren und Video-Sensoren.For monitoring In the environment of a vehicle, numerous systems are known. Such systems serve for example for the realization of an accident prevention ("precrash"), an automatic Driving control ("automatic cruise control (ACC)), the observation of the blind spot with respect to the visual field of the Driver or a support the driver in poor visibility, especially at Darkness. Systems are used, which are different sensors serve. For example, radar sensors, lidar sensors, Ultrasonic sensors and video sensors.
Es sind auch solche Vorrichtungen bekannt, die eine sog. Bildfusion vornehmen. Vorrichtungen zur Bildfusion überlagern die Bilder zumindest zweier Kameras, die die aktuelle Umgebung eines Fahrzeugs in unterschiedlichen Spektralbereichen aufnehmen. Die Spektralbereiche können beispielsweise visuell sichtbares Licht sowie Infrarot-Strahlung umfassen. Ein aus einer Bildfusion ermitteltes Zielbild ermöglicht dem Fahrer des Fahrzeugs eine leichtere und bessere Interpretierbarkeit der in einer Bildanzeigeeinheit bereitgestellten Informationen über die Umgebung des Fahrzeugs.It are also such devices known that a so-called. Image fusion make. Imaging devices at least superimpose the images two cameras, the current environment of a vehicle in different Record spectral ranges. The spectral ranges can be, for example Visually visible light and infrared radiation include. One Target image determined from an image fusion enables the driver of the vehicle a lighter and better interpretability of in an image display unit provided information about the Environment of the vehicle.
Die Funktion solcher Assistenzsysteme ist allerdings nur dann zuverlässig gewährleistet, wenn die durch die Kamera oder Kameras aufgenommenen Bilder qualitativ hochwertig einer Auswerteeinheit zugeführt werden. Die Qualität wird dabei vor allem durch Verunreinigungen oder Beschädigungen der Kameraoptik, die im Fahrbetrieb auftreten, bestimmt.The However, the function of such assistance systems is only reliably ensured if the pictures taken by the camera or cameras are qualitative high quality be fed to an evaluation. The quality is there especially by contamination or damage to the camera optics, the occur during driving, determined.

Nachteilig an den vorbekannten Reinigungssystemen für Kameras ist, dass sie aufgrund Ihrer Positionierung im Innenraum, die einfallende Strahlung nur abgeschwächt empfangen. Bei geringer Lichteinstrahlung führt dies dazu, dass die in die Kamera eingestrahlte Lichtleistung nicht ausreicht, um ein scharfes Bild zu erzeugen. Die vorgeschlagenen Lichtkoppler verschärfen dieses Problem. Andererseits führt die Aufstellung der Kamera außerhalb des Fahrzeuginnenraums dazu, dass diese schnell verschmutzt und vor Beschädigung schlecht geschützt ist.adversely The prior art cleaning systems for cameras is that they are due to Their positioning in the interior, the incident radiation only attenuated receive. In low light, this leads to the in the camera irradiated light power is insufficient to make a sharp Create picture. The proposed light couplers exacerbate this Problem. On the other hand leads setting up the camera outside of the vehicle interior causing them to become soiled and soiled quickly from damage is poorly protected.
Es ist demnach Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung eine Kamera für ein Kraftfahrzeug bereitzustellen, die vor Beschädigung geschützt ist und gleichzeitig bei geringer Lichteinstrahlung funktionsfähig ist.It Accordingly, the object of the present invention is a camera for a motor vehicle to provide that against damage protected is and at the same time functional at low light irradiation.
Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen.The The object is achieved by a device having the features of the patent claim 1 solved. Advantageous embodiments emerge from the dependent claims.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung zur Sichtbarmachung der Umgebung eines Kraftfahrzeugs, insbesondere bei Dunkelheit, mit einer zumindest eine Kamera aufweisende Kameravorrichtung zum Bereitstellen eines Abbilds der Umgebung ist eine Abdeckeinrichtung zum Verdecken eines Strahleneintrittsbereichs, insbesondere einer Objektivoberfläche, der Kamera vorgesehen, wobei die Abdeckeinrichtung dazu ausgebildet ist, den Strahleneintrittsbereich automatisch aufzudecken, wenn die Kamera betätigt wird, und den Strahleneintrittsbereich zu verschließen, wenn die Kamera abgeschaltet wird.In the device according to the invention for visualizing the surroundings of a motor vehicle, in particular in the dark, with a camera device having at least one camera for providing an image of the environment, a covering device is provided for covering a radiation entry region, in particular a lens surface, of the camera, the covering device being designed for this purpose to automatically reveal the beam entry area when the camera is operated, and the beam entrance when the camera is turned off.
Der Strahleneintrittsbereich kann durch eine Objektivoberfläche der Kamera oder eine Lichteinkopplungsfläche gebildet sein, wenn ein Lichtleiter, wie beispielsweise ein Umlenkspiegel, vorgesehen ist, der das einfallende Licht zur Objektivoberfläche ablenkt.Of the Radiation entrance area can through a lens surface of the Camera or a Lichteinkopplungsfläche be formed when a Light guide, such as a deflection mirror is provided, which deflects the incident light to the lens surface.
Die Abdeckeinrichtung kann insbesondere ein Deckel oder eine Schutzklappe sein. Mittels der Abdeckeinrichtung wird verhindert, dass der Strahleneintrittsbereich z.B. die Objektivoberfläche verschmutzt wird, solange die Kamera nicht verwendet wird, z.B. guten Sichtverhältnissen, wenn der Fahrer auf kein Fahrerassistenzsystem angewiesen ist. Somit wird verhindert, dass Schmutz auf den Strahleneintrittsbereich gelangt. Die Reinigung des Strahleneintrittsbereichs kann in größeren Zeitabständen erfolgen. Die Kamera kann damit außerhalb des Fahrzeuginnenraums angeordnet werden, so dass das in die Kamera eingestrahlte Licht, z.B. durch die Windschutzscheibe, nicht abgeschwächt ist.The Cover device may in particular a lid or a protective flap be. By means of the cover device prevents the beam entry area e.g. the lens surface contaminated while the camera is not in use, e.g. good visibility, if the driver does not need a driver assistance system. Consequently prevents dirt from reaching the radiation entry area. The cleaning of the beam entry area can be done at longer intervals. The camera can handle it outside be arranged in the vehicle interior, so that in the camera irradiated light, e.g. through the windshield, not weakened.
In einer Ausgestaltung weist die Vorrichtung eine an der Abdeckeinrichtung befestigte Wischeinrichtung auf, die bei verdecktem Strahleneintrittsbereich zwischen der Abdeckeinrichtung und dem Strahleneintrittsbereich angeordnet ist, so dass die Wischeinrichtung den Strahleneintrittsbereich beim Wechsel von ihrer Verschlussstellung in die Öffnungsstellung und/oder beim Wechsel von ihrer Öffnungsstellung in ihre Verschlussstellung reinigt. Hierdurch wird eine Reinigungsmöglichkeit des Strahleneintrittsbereichs der Kamera bereitgestellt, die eine Reinigung automatisch mit jeder Inbetriebnahme oder Außerbetriebnahme vornimmt. Sofern eine manuelle Ansteuerung der Abdeckeinrichtung vorgesehen ist, kann der Strahleneingangsbereich zwischendurch gereinigt werden. Als Wischeinrichtung können eine Bürste, ein Schwamm oder eine Gummilippe für sich alleine oder in Kombination eingesetzt werden.In In one embodiment, the device has a cover device attached wiper device, which in the hidden radiation entry area between the cover device and the radiation entry region is arranged, so that the wiper device the radiation entrance area when changing from its closed position to the open position and / or when changing from its open position cleans into its closed position. This will be a cleaning option the radiation entry region of the camera provided, the cleaning automatically with each commissioning or decommissioning. Provided a manual control of the covering device is provided, the radiation entrance area can be cleaned in between. As a wiper device can a Brush, a sponge or a rubber lip alone or in combination be used.
Eine weitere Ausbildung der Erfindung sieht vor, dass der Strahlungseintrittsbereich eine Schmutz und/oder Wasser abweisende Oberflächenbeschichtung aufweist. Die Oberflächenbeschichtung kann hydrophob oder oliophob ausgebildet sein. Damit wird verhindert, dass sich Verunreinigungen, in Form von Schmutzpartikeln oder Wasser, auf dem Strahlungseintrittsbereich ablagern, so dass die Oberfläche seltener gereinigt werden muss. Durch die Oberflächenbeschichtung werden kleinste Tropfen an der Oberfläche abgeschnürt und – bei senkrecht stehender Oberfläche – durch die Schwerkraft nach unten, d.h. weg von dem Strahlungseintrittsbereich gezogen. Da auch Schmutzpartikel weniger stark an der Oberfläche anhaften, kann die Reinigung dem Strahlungseintrittsbereich schonender unter Einsatz von weniger Reinigungsmittel erfolgen.A Further embodiment of the invention provides that the radiation entrance area having a dirt and / or water-repellent surface coating. The surface coating may be hydrophobic or oliophobic. This prevents that impurities, in the form of dirt particles or water, deposit on the radiation entrance area, so that the surface is less common must be cleaned. Due to the surface coating become smallest Drops on the surface cut off and - at vertical surface - through gravity down, i. away from the radiation entrance area drawn. Since dirt particles also adhere less strongly to the surface, the cleaning can be gentler on the radiation entry area of less detergent.
