Abstract
A vehicle window lift control system includes a window lift motor, a motor drive/control module, an inverter, a rotor position sensing unit, and an anti-pinch module. The window lift motor is a brushless direct current motor. The anti-pinch module detennines whether or not the vehicle window is in an anti-pinch area based on position feedback signals generated by a rotor position sensing unit that is inherently included in the brushless direct current motor. When the vehicle window is in the anti-pinch area, an obstacle judgment unit is initiated. When there is an obstacle, an anti-pinch instruction unit sends an anti-pinch instruction to the motor drive/control module, and the motor drive/control module drives the inverter according to the anti-pinch instruction to make the motor rotate reversely. The present vehicle window lift control system has the advantages of small size, low failure rate and low cost.
