Publication number: 20240110426Abstract: A vehicle door control device controlling a motor and a door lock device of a door. During a closing operation of the door based on a closing operation command signal, the motor is driven to cause the door to perform the closing operation until shift of a latch mechanism from the unlatching state to the half-latching state is detected. The latch mechanism is shifted from the half-latching state to the full-latching state by starting driving of the door lock device simultaneously with or before or after completion of the closing operation of the door. When the shift of the latch mechanism from the half-latching state to the full-latching state is detected, position correction control of correcting a position of the door by driving the motor such that a force in an opening direction acts on the door is executed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: AISIN CORPORATIONInventors: Taishi IIKAWA, Gen TAKATSUKA, Hiroki EBA, Kimihide KATO
