Problems solved by technology

The vast majority of cars use a vacuum booster braking system. The vacuum source of the vacuum booster device in a traditional internal combustion engine vehicle braking system comes from the intake manifold of the engine. The vacuum power source of the air manifold, the braking force generated by manpower alone cannot meet the needs of vehicle braking, so it is necessary to have an electric vacuum booster to assist manpower in vehicle braking
[0003] At present, many electric vehicles use electric vacuum pumps to evacuate continuously. Although this can achieve brake boosting, it consumes too much energy, increases the noise of the system, and causes premature loss of the vacuum pump.
There are also some systems that use a vacuum pressure switch or a vacuum pressure sensor to control the start or stop of the vacuum pump. Simple control is performed only according to the on-off of the vacuum pressure switch or the output voltage value of the vacuum pressure sensor. There is no diagnostic function, which makes the brake system exist. Security risks

Abstract

The invention discloses a control module of a brake vacuum servo device of an electric automobile. The control module comprises a fault diagnosis unit for a vacuum pressure sensor and a vacuum pressure data acquisition unit, wherein the fault diagnosis unit for the vacuum pressure sensor is used for judging whether the vacuum pressure sensor is at fault, and if the vacuum pressure sensor is at fault, a vacuum pump is controlled to work and the fault is alarmed. The invention also discloses a control method of a brake vacuum servo device of an electric automobile. The invention also discloses a brake vacuum servo device of an electric automobile comprising the control module. The invention also discloses an electric automobile comprising the vacuum servo device. In the invention, the faultdiagnosis unit is arranged for judging whether the brake vacuum servo device is at fault, and when the brake vacuum servo device is at fault, the control module controls the vacuum pump to work and carries out alarming and prompting, thus the brake vacuum servo device has higher reliability, and the safety of the brake system is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a control module and a control method, a brake vacuum booster and an electric vehicle including the control module. Background technique [0002] Driven by national policies, financial support and technology, electric vehicles (especially pure electric vehicles) have developed rapidly. The vast majority of cars use a vacuum booster braking system. The vacuum source of the vacuum booster device in a traditional internal combustion engine vehicle braking system comes from the intake manifold of the engine. For the vacuum power source of the air manifold, the braking force generated by manpower alone cannot meet the needs of vehicle braking. Therefore, it is necessary to have an electric vacuum booster to assist manpower in vehicle braking. [0003] At present, many electric vehicles use electric vacuum pumps to evacuate continuously. Although this can achieve brake boosting, it consumes too much energy, increases the noise of th...
