AUTOMATIC REMOTE CONTROL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE

To provide an automatic remote control device for a vehicle in a simple and low-cost configuration capable of being automatically remote controlled without need for an operator riding on the vehicle, for example, in a work space under such as a state to have an adverse effect on a human body or a work space under such as a state that a second accident is easy to occur.SOLUTION: An automatic remote control device includes: a first gear part 21 integrally fixed on a vehicular steering wheel 19; a second gear part 29 meshing with the first gear part 21 to give the steering wheel 19 a rotational operation toward the longitudinal direction; a remote control part for transmitting a driving signal to the second gear part 29; an imaging part capable of imaging an area around a driving seat of the vehicle and an area around the exterior of the vehicle; and a monitor part for receiving a video signal from the imaging part for display.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】人体に悪影響を及ぼすような状況下となっている作業領域や二次災害が発生しやすいような状況下となっている作業領域等において、操縦者が乗車しなくても遠隔にて自動操縦可能な簡易かつ安価な構成の車両の自動遠隔操縦装置を提供する。【解決手段】車両のハンドル１９に一体に取り付け固定される第一のギア部２１と、第一のギア部２１と噛み合ってハンドル１９に左右方向への回転動作を与える第二のギア部２９と、第二のギア部２９に駆動信号を送る遠隔操作部と、車両の操縦席周辺及び車両の外方周辺を撮影可能な撮像部と、撮像部からの映像信号を受信して映し出すモニタ部とを含む。【選択図】図３
