Man and machine driven type electric power steering system and mode switching method

Abstract

The invention discloses a man and machine driven type electric power steering system and a mode switching method and belongs to the field of unmanned steering for intelligent cars. The electric power steering system comprises a front torque/angle sensor, a rear torque/angle sensor, a vehicle speed sensor, a man and machine driven type steering controller, a mode switching controller, a steering motor, a steering shaft, a speed reducing mechanism, a pinion and rack mechanism and a yaw velocity sensor. An existing electric power steering system is simply transformed, the rear torque/angle sensor is mounted on the original electric power steering system, torque/angle signals in man driving and machine driving modes are acquired in real time, and great convenience is brought to the work of a steering motor in the two modes; meanwhile, according to signals of the front torque/angle sensor and the rear torque/angle sensor, the steering mode of a current vehicle can be judged simply and quickly, and automatic and safe switching between the two steering modes can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of unmanned steering of smart cars, and in particular relates to a human-machine co-driving electric power steering system and a mode switching method. Background technique [0002] A smart car is a complex system integrating high-tech in multiple fields such as environmental perception, planning and decision-making, and multi-level assisted driving. The continuous progress of autonomous driving to various road autonomous driving. The smart car plan launched by the German Continental Group is divided into three steps: to realize partial automatic driving by 2016, the car needs a monitoring system, and the driver must be ready to take over the driving at any time. The goal is to achieve automatic driving within 30km / h; Autonomous driving does not require a monitoring system, but the driver must take over the driving within the specified time; by 2025, fully autonomous driving will be achieved without the need for a mo...
