[0033] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0034] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, outlines a method, apparatus, vehicle, and storage medium for identifying vehicle abnormal noises according to embodiments of this application. Addressing the technical problem mentioned in the background section of the related art, where the source of abnormal noise cannot be identified when determining motor abnormal noise problems, leading to low repair efficiency, this application provides a method for identifying vehicle abnormal noises. In this method, based on a video recording of abnormal noise from a test vehicle, an audio recording of the abnormal noise is obtained, and the time and speed of the abnormal noise occurrence are confirmed. A noise waterfall diagram obtained from the abnormal noise audio is used to identify the order of the abnormal noise occurrence. The order of the abnormal noise occurrence is compared with the order of the motor and reducer components of the test vehicle to determine the source of the abnormal noise. This method accurately identifies the source of abnormal noise when determining motor abnormal noise problems, improving repair efficiency. It is highly practical and easy to promote and apply. Therefore, it solves the technical problem in the related art where the source of abnormal noise cannot be identified when determining motor abnormal noise problems, leading to low repair efficiency.

[0035] Specifically, Figure 1This is a flowchart illustrating a method for identifying abnormal noises in a vehicle, as provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for identifying abnormal noises in this vehicle includes the following steps:

[0037] In step S101, the abnormal noise video of the test vehicle is acquired, the abnormal noise video is converted into abnormal noise audio, and the time and speed at which the abnormal noise occurs are confirmed.

[0038] In actual execution, before acquiring the video of abnormal noise from the test vehicle, this application embodiment can pre-determine whether the test vehicle has an abnormal noise problem and confirm whether the abnormal noise problem is caused by a fault in the motor or reducer.

[0039] Once the abnormal noise problem is confirmed to exist and is caused by a malfunction in the motor or reducer, this embodiment of the application can first determine the method of filming the abnormal noise video, such as filming while the test vehicle is driving on the road, filming while the test vehicle is on a lift, or filming while the vehicle is fixed on a rotating hub. Specifically, to fully represent the abnormal noise, this embodiment of the application can, under different filming methods and according to the filming requirements, confirm the status of the test vehicle, start the test vehicle, and begin filming the abnormal noise video. During the video recording process, when an abnormal noise occurs, this embodiment of the application can record the moment of the abnormal noise.

[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the application, the recorded video of abnormal noise can be converted into audio of abnormal noise using a method such as an audio converter, and the time when the abnormal noise occurs in the audio of abnormal noise and the vehicle speed at which the abnormal noise occurs can be confirmed.

[0041] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, after acquiring the abnormal noise video of the test vehicle, the method further includes: re-examining the abnormal noise video to determine whether there is an abnormal noise in the video; if there is no abnormal noise in the video, or if the preset abnormal noise conditions are not met, then the abnormal noise video of the test vehicle is acquired again.

[0042] As one possible implementation, this application embodiment can re-examine the abnormal noise video after acquiring the video of the test vehicle to determine whether there is an abnormal noise in the video. If there is an abnormal noise in the video and the preset abnormal noise condition is met, that is, the abnormal noise decibel is higher than the preset threshold, then the abnormal noise video can be used. If there is no abnormal noise in the video, or the preset abnormal noise condition is not met, that is, the abnormal noise decibel is lower than the preset threshold, this application embodiment can re-acquire the abnormal noise video of the test vehicle to avoid poor recording effect and affecting the data analysis results.

[0043] It should be noted that the preset threshold can be set by those skilled in the art according to the actual situation, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0044] In step S102, a noise waterfall diagram is obtained from the abnormal noise audio, and the order of the abnormal noise is identified by combining the time of occurrence of the abnormal noise and the vehicle speed.

[0045] In some embodiments, the present application embodiments can obtain a noise waterfall diagram based on the obtained abnormal noise audio, and combine it with the pre-obtained time of occurrence of the abnormal noise and vehicle speed to identify the order of occurrence of the abnormal noise in the noise waterfall diagram, which is convenient for subsequent fault source finding.

[0046] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, obtaining a noise waterfall diagram from the abnormal noise audio includes: performing a short-time Fourier transform on the audio signal of the abnormal noise audio to generate a noise waterfall diagram.

[0047] Specifically, embodiments of this application can perform a short-time Fourier transform on the audio signal in the abnormal noise audio to obtain, as shown below. Figure 2 The noise waterfall plot shown can be represented by the following Fourier transform formula:

[0048]

[0049] This application embodiment can find the fault order curve from the waterfall plot, and confirm the time and vehicle speed when the abnormal noise occurs by combining the audio playback. This application embodiment can draw a straight line on the waterfall plot with the time as the coordinate based on the time when the abnormal noise occurs in the audio, find the intersection point of the time line and the abnormal order curve, identify the frequency f of the abnormal noise through the intersection point, and then calculate the fault order by combining the vehicle speed or motor speed when the abnormal noise occurs with the identified abnormal noise frequency, thus completing the abnormal noise order detection.

[0050] In step S103, the order of the motor and reducer components of the test vehicle is calculated, the order of the abnormal noise is compared with the order of the motor and reducer components of the test vehicle, and the faulty parts are identified based on the comparison results.

[0051] In actual implementation, the embodiments of this application can calculate the order of the motor and reducer related components of the test vehicle and compare it with the order of the motor and reducer related components of the test vehicle to identify the source of the fault and determine the faulty parts, thereby facilitating subsequent parts replacement and repair and improving maintenance efficiency.

[0052] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, calculating the order of the motor and reducer-related components of the test vehicle includes: obtaining the design parameters of the motor and reducer of the test vehicle; and calculating the order of the motor and reducer-related components of the test vehicle based on the design parameters, wherein the motor and reducer-related components include a motor shaft, an input shaft, an intermediate shaft, an output shaft, and / or various bearings.

[0053] As one possible approach, embodiments of this application can calculate the order of related components (motor shaft, input shaft, intermediate shaft, output shaft, bearings, etc.) of the motor and reducer by using design parameters of the motor and reducer (such as the number of pole pairs of the motor rotor, the number of stator slots, the number of teeth of the reducer gears, the number of balls of the bearings, etc.).

[0063]

[0064] Where k is the number of teeth on the corresponding gear on the bearing, d is the ball diameter, D is the diameter at the center of the ball, α is the radial contact angle, m is the number of balls, and N is the motor speed. n is the order: f represents the frequency of the abnormal noise, T represents the duration of the abnormal noise, V represents the corresponding vehicle speed, and N represents the frequency of the abnormal noise. 10 The motor speed is the speed of the motor when the vehicle speed is 10 km / h.

[0065] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, after identifying the faulty part, the method further includes: replacing the faulty part; reacquiring the audio data of the test vehicle driving within a preset time period, and identifying whether there are abnormal noises in the audio data.

[0066] In some embodiments, after replacing the faulty parts, the audio data of the test vehicle driving within a preset time period can be reacquired, and the presence of abnormal noises in the audio data can be identified again. If there are no abnormal noises, it indicates that the motor and reducer of the current test vehicle have been repaired. If there are still abnormal noises, it indicates that there are other sources of failure in the motor and reducer of the current test vehicle, and abnormal noise identification needs to be performed again.

[0067] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the working principle of the vehicle abnormal noise identification method of this application embodiment is explained in detail with reference to one embodiment.

[0068] like Figure 3 As shown, embodiments of this application may include the following steps:

[0069] Step S301: Problem Analysis. Before acquiring the video of abnormal noise from the test vehicle during actual execution, this embodiment of the application can pre-determine whether the test vehicle has an abnormal noise problem and confirm whether the abnormal noise problem is caused by a fault in the motor or reducer, such as by determining it through after-sales information provided by the user.

[0070] Step S302: Prepare the test vehicle, such as the vehicle that the user sent back for repair with abnormal noise.

[0071] Step S303: Determine the video recording method for abnormal noise. Based on the test conditions or problem reproduction requirements, this embodiment of the application can select a video recording method for abnormal noise, such as: recording while the vehicle is driving on the road, recording while the vehicle is on a lift, or recording while the vehicle is fixed to a rotating hub.

[0072] The shooting requirements for each testing method are as follows:

[0073] 1. Taking photos while the vehicle is driving on the road:

[0074] Vehicle status: Doors and windows are closed, and there are no loose items inside the vehicle;

[0075] Camera: The motor speed is displayed on the vehicle's dashboard and is always directly facing the vehicle speedometer;

[0076] Operating conditions: a) Gradually accelerate from a standstill to 50 km / h; b) Maintain a constant speed of 50 km / h (lasting approximately 10 seconds); c) Coast from 50 km / h to 10 km / h (the 50 km / h speed can be adjusted to 30 km / h or 70 km / h, but the abnormal noise must be reproduced).

[0077] 2. The vehicle was photographed from the lift:

[0078] Vehicle status: Doors and windows are closed, and there are no loose items inside the vehicle;

[0079] Recording inside the vehicle: The motor speed is displayed on the vehicle's dashboard, and the camera is pointed directly at the vehicle's speedometer throughout the recording.

[0083] Recording inside the vehicle: The motor speed is displayed on the vehicle's dashboard, and the camera is pointed directly at the vehicle's speedometer throughout the recording.

[0084] Recording from under the vehicle: Simply point the camera at the electric drive assembly.

[0085] Step S304: Reproduce the abnormal noise problem and record a video. This embodiment of the application can, under different shooting methods and according to shooting requirements, confirm the status of the test vehicle, start the test vehicle, and begin recording the abnormal noise video. During the video recording process, when an abnormal noise occurs, this embodiment of the application can record the moment of the abnormal noise.

[0086] As one possible implementation, this application embodiment can re-examine the abnormal noise video after acquiring the video of the test vehicle to determine whether there is an abnormal noise in the video. If there is an abnormal noise in the video and the preset abnormal noise condition is met, that is, the abnormal noise decibel is higher than the preset threshold, then the abnormal noise video can be used. If there is no abnormal noise in the video, or the preset abnormal noise condition is not met, that is, the abnormal noise decibel is lower than the preset threshold, this application embodiment can re-acquire the abnormal noise video of the test vehicle to avoid poor recording effect and affecting the data analysis results.

[0087] It should be noted that the preset threshold can be set by those skilled in the art according to the actual situation, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0088] Step S305: Extract the abnormal noise audio. In this embodiment, the recorded abnormal noise video can be converted into abnormal noise audio using a method such as an audio converter, and the video format can be adjusted to the audio MAV format.

[0089] Step S306: Process the abnormal noise audio data and analyze the abnormal noise order. Specifically, in this embodiment of the application, a short-time Fourier transform can be performed on the audio signal in the abnormal noise audio to obtain, as shown below. Figure 2 The noise waterfall plot shown can be represented by the following Fourier transform formula:

[0090]

[0091] This application embodiment can find the fault order curve from the waterfall plot, and confirm the time and vehicle speed when the abnormal noise occurs by combining the audio playback. This application embodiment can draw a straight line on the waterfall plot with the time as the coordinate based on the time when the abnormal noise occurs in the audio, find the intersection point of the time line and the abnormal order curve, identify the frequency f of the abnormal noise through the intersection point, and then calculate the fault order by combining the vehicle speed or motor speed when the abnormal noise occurs with the identified abnormal noise frequency, thus completing the abnormal noise order detection.

[0092] Step S307: Calculate the order of key components of the motor and reducer. As one possible implementation, embodiments of this application can calculate the order of relevant components (motor shaft, input shaft, intermediate shaft, output shaft, bearings, etc.) of the motor and reducer based on design parameters of the motor and reducer (such as the number of pole pairs of the motor rotor, the number of stator slots, the number of teeth of the reducer gears, the number of balls in the bearings, etc.).

[0093] Furthermore, the frequency and corresponding order of the drive shaft:

[0094]

[0095] Cage frequency and corresponding order:

[0096]

[0097] Ball bearing frequency and corresponding order:

[0098]

[0099] Bearing outer ring frequency and corresponding order:

[0100]

[0101] Bearing inner ring frequency and corresponding order:

[0102]

[0103] Where k is the number of teeth on the corresponding gear on the bearing, d is the ball diameter, D is the diameter at the center of the ball, α is the radial contact angle, m is the number of balls, and N is the motor speed. n is the order: f represents the frequency of the abnormal noise, T represents the duration of the abnormal noise, V represents the corresponding vehicle speed, and N represents the frequency of the abnormal noise. 10 The motor speed is the speed of the motor when the vehicle speed is 10 km / h.

[0104] Step S308: Identify the source of abnormal noise and replace the faulty part. This embodiment of the application can calculate the order of the motor and reducer-related components of the test vehicle and compare it with the order of the motor and reducer-related components of the test vehicle to identify the source of the fault and determine the faulty part, thereby facilitating subsequent part replacement and repair and improving repair efficiency.

[0105] The vehicle abnormal noise identification method proposed in this application obtains the abnormal noise audio based on the abnormal noise video of the test vehicle, confirms the time and speed of the abnormal noise occurrence, and identifies the order of the abnormal noise by combining the noise waterfall diagram obtained from the abnormal noise audio. By comparing the order of the abnormal noise occurrence with the order of the relevant components of the test vehicle's motor and reducer, the fault source causing the abnormal noise is determined. This method accurately identifies the fault source of the abnormal noise when diagnosing motor abnormal noise problems, improving repair efficiency, and is highly practical and easy to promote and apply. Therefore, it solves the technical problem in related technologies where the fault source of abnormal noise cannot be identified when diagnosing motor abnormal noise problems, leading to low repair efficiency.

[0106] Next, the vehicle abnormal noise identification device according to the embodiments of this application is described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0113] The maintenance module is used to replace faulty parts.

[0114] The third identification module is used to reacquire the audio data of the test vehicle during a preset driving time and identify whether there are any abnormal noises in the audio data.

[0115] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the first identification module 200 includes a generation unit.

[0118] The acquisition unit is used to acquire the design parameters of the motor and reducer of the test vehicle.

[0119] The calculation unit is used to calculate the order of the motor and reducer related components of the test vehicle based on the design parameters. The motor and reducer related components include the motor shaft, input shaft, intermediate shaft, output shaft and / or various bearings.

[0120] Optionally, in one embodiment of this application, the vehicle abnormal noise identification device 10 further includes a re-inspection module and a judgment module.

[0121] The re-inspection module is used to re-inspect the abnormal noise video to determine whether there is an abnormal noise in the video.

[0122] The judgment module is used to reacquire the abnormal noise video of the test vehicle when there is no abnormal noise in the abnormal noise video or the preset abnormal noise conditions are not met.

[0123] It should be noted that the explanation of the above-mentioned method for identifying abnormal vehicle noises also applies to the vehicle noise identification device of this embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0124] The vehicle abnormal noise identification device proposed in this application obtains the abnormal noise audio based on the abnormal noise video of the test vehicle, confirms the time and speed of the abnormal noise occurrence, and identifies the order of the abnormal noise by combining the noise waterfall diagram obtained from the abnormal noise audio. By comparing the order of the abnormal noise occurrence with the order of the relevant components of the test vehicle's motor and reducer, the fault source causing the abnormal noise is determined. This accurately identifies the fault source when diagnosing motor abnormal noise problems, improving repair efficiency, and offering high practicality and ease of widespread application. Therefore, it solves the technical problem in related technologies where the fault source of abnormal noise cannot be identified when diagnosing motor abnormal noise problems, leading to low repair efficiency.
