[0002] As consumers' demands for automobile safety continue to increase, many electromechanical products have emerged in the field of automobile brake technology. Compared with traditional vacuum boosters, electronic brake boosters collect electrical signals from the push rod displacement sensor installed on the brake pedal, analyze the depth of the driver's brake pedal, and thus slow down the vehicle. However, in the actual development process, due to cost reasons, the choice of basic brakes (i.e. the size of the brakes) by various OEMs has become more and more extreme, which will lead to insufficient pressure-building fluid in the electronic brake booster system under certain extreme conditions, such as emergency braking to activate ABS conditions, ice and snow and other low adhesion conditions. If the brake fluid is not replenished in time at this time, the vehicle's response will not meet the driver's intention to slow down.
[0003] CN118457532A discloses a method and device for determining the amount of fluid to be returned during vehicle braking. The method at least includes: determining the driving distance corresponding to the vehicle consuming all the brake fluid during the vehicle deceleration process; determining the current speed and current deceleration of the vehicle when the anti-lock braking system ABS of the vehicle is triggered; calculating the braking distance required for the vehicle to stop from the current speed according to the current deceleration; determining the total amount of brake fluid in the vehicle, and calculating the amount of fluid to be returned required by the vehicle according to the total amount of brake fluid, the driving distance and the braking distance. This solution can determine the amount of brake fluid to be returned according to the actual driving conditions of the vehicle during the braking process, thereby avoiding the process of returning too much brake fluid for a long time, shortening the braking time of the vehicle and improving the braking efficiency. Undoubtedly, the technical solution disclosed in the above patent document is a beneficial attempt in the relevant technical field.

[0044] The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, a method for reversing and replenishing fluid of an electronic brake booster in this embodiment includes:
[0046] During braking, the pressure building unit is controlled to build up braking pressure to the wheel end brake cylinder;
[0047] Get the brake system fluid status; such as Figure 2 As shown, the brake system fluid state includes: the brake demand fluid volume V1 that the wheel end brake cylinder needs to consume after braking during the current driving, the maximum effective brake fluid volume V2 that the brake system can provide after braking during the current driving, and the total fluid consumption V3 when the driver's braking intention is achieved after braking during the current driving;
[0048] Determine whether the brake system fluid quantity state satisfies the fluid replenishment condition; if so, control the pressure building unit to obtain brake fluid from the brake fluid reservoir.
[0049] After the ABS (anti-lock braking system) function of the vehicle is activated, the decoupled electronic brake booster needs to release a portion of the brake fluid into the brake oil reservoir through the internal pressure relief valve. Since the decoupled electronic brake booster relies on the motor to act on the pressure building unit to build up the brake pressure, and the amount of brake fluid that the pressure building unit can provide is certain, after the ABS activates the hydraulic pressure, the amount of brake fluid in the pressure building unit will be insufficient to continue to support the driver's braking needs for the next cycle. In order to solve this technical problem, after obtaining the brake system fluid state, this embodiment determines whether the brake system fluid state meets the fluid replenishment condition; and when the brake system fluid state meets the fluid replenishment condition, the pressure building unit is controlled to obtain brake fluid from the brake fluid reservoir.
[0050] like Figure 2 As shown, there are brake fluid channels between the brake fluid reservoir and the pressure building unit, between the pressure building unit and the wheel-end brake cylinder, and between the wheel-end brake cylinder and the brake fluid reservoir; there are four wheel-end brake cylinders, which are respectively arranged on the left front wheel, the right rear wheel, the right front wheel and the left rear wheel; a solenoid valve four is arranged between the pressure building unit and the left front wheel, a solenoid valve eight is arranged between the left front wheel and the brake fluid reservoir; a solenoid valve five is arranged between the pressure building unit and the right rear wheel, and a solenoid valve eight is arranged between the right rear wheel and the brake fluid reservoir Solenoid valve nine; solenoid valve six is arranged between the pressure building unit and the right front wheel, and solenoid valve ten is arranged between the right front wheel and the brake fluid reservoir; solenoid valve seven is arranged between the pressure building unit and the left rear wheel, and solenoid valve eleven is arranged between the left rear wheel and the brake fluid reservoir; solenoid valve two is arranged between the solenoid valve four and the side of the solenoid valve five away from the wheel-end brake cylinder and the pressure building unit, and solenoid valve three is arranged between the solenoid valve six and the side of the solenoid valve seven away from the wheel-end brake cylinder and the pressure building unit.
[0051] The function of solenoid valve 1 is to ensure that the brake fluid can only flow from the brake fluid reservoir to the pressure building unit. When the driver has a braking demand, solenoid valves 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 are in the open state, and solenoid valves 8, 9, 10 and 11 are in the closed state. At this time, the motor will push the pressure building unit to build up braking pressure on the four wheels to meet the driver's braking needs. When the ABS (anti-lock braking) function is activated, the electronic brake booster will control solenoid valves 8, 9, 10 and 11 to be in the open state during pressure relief, so that the brake fluid in the entire system flows along the brake fluid. Figure 2 The fluid leaks back into the brake oil tank in the direction indicated by the middle arrow. At this time, the motor has been pushing the pressure building unit to build up hydraulic pressure. Due to the size limitation of the pressure building unit structure, there will be no excess brake fluid in the system to support the pressure building. At this time, the electronic brake booster will control the motor to retract, open solenoid valve one, close solenoid valves two and three, and allow the brake fluid reservoir to replenish the pressure building unit, thereby ensuring that there is enough fluid in the system to support the pressure building.
[0052] In this embodiment, if it is determined that the brake system fluid quantity state does not satisfy the fluid replenishment condition, the pressure building unit is not controlled to obtain brake fluid from the brake fluid reservoir.

[0055] Determine the liquid loss index V index Is it greater than a preset threshold; if greater than, it is determined that the real-time state of the electronic brake booster meets the fluid replenishment condition; if not greater than, it is determined that the real-time state of the electronic brake booster does not meet the fluid replenishment condition.
[0056] In this embodiment, the liquid loss index V index The calculation method is V index The effective value of the calculated value is 0-1. If V index If the calculated value is not 0-1, the calculated value is considered invalid and recalculated. The preset threshold is determined according to the parameters of the pressure building unit and the motor, for example, it can be 0.5, 0.7, 0.85, etc. index By comparing with the preset threshold, it can accurately identify the timing for the brake system to roll back and replenish fluid.
[0057] In this embodiment, the calculation method of the brake fluid demand V1 is: V1 = V 1_FL +V 1_FR +V 1_RL +V1_RR +V 1_com ;
[0058] Among them, V 1_FL The pressure value is calculated according to the software pressure calculation model, and then the PV characteristic curve of the left front wheel is queried to obtain V 1_FR The pressure value is calculated according to the software pressure calculation model, and then the PV characteristic curve of the right front wheel is queried to obtain V 1_RL The pressure value is calculated according to the software pressure calculation model, and then the PV characteristic curve of the left rear wheel is queried to obtain V 1_RR It is obtained by querying the PV characteristic curve of the right rear wheel after calculating the pressure value according to the software pressure calculation model. V1_com is the compensation value obtained through calibration.
[0059] The software pressure calculation model belongs to the existing technology and is pre-stored in the controller. The pressure value is calculated by comprehensively considering information such as the stroke of the electronic brake pedal, the specifications of the hydraulic cylinders of each wheel, and the vehicle's own weight; the PV characteristic curve, that is, the pressure-fluid volume characteristic curve, is obtained through experiments and pre-stored in the controller.
[0060] In this embodiment, the pressure-building piston of the pressure-building unit is driven by a motor; the maximum effective brake fluid volume V2 is calculated as follows: V2 = π × D 2 ×n×z×p×T2; When the ABS function is activated, the total fluid consumption V3 is calculated as follows: V3=V1+π×D 2 ×n×z×p×T3; when the ABS function is not activated, the total fluid consumption V3 is 0;
[0061] Among them, π is the pi, D is the diameter of the pressure building piston of the pressure building unit, n is the rotation speed of the motor, z is the number of threads of the ball screw of the pressure building unit, p is the pitch of the ball screw of the pressure building unit, T2 is the time that the motor has run during the braking process, and T3 is the sum of the ABS pressure relief time.

[0066] Perform fluid replenishment; open the brake fluid channel between the brake fluid reservoir and the pressure building unit; the motor continues to reverse at the second speed to drive the pressure building piston of the pressure building unit to continue to retreat toward the initial position, and the brake fluid flows from the brake fluid reservoir into the interior of the pressure building unit under the action of negative pressure;
[0067] Transition stage; the brake fluid channel between the brake fluid reservoir and the pressure building unit is isolated; the reverse rotation of the motor gradually changes to forward rotation, and drives the pressure building piston of the pressure building unit to move forward in a direction away from the initial position at a third speed, and the third speed is greater than the first speed, until the internal pressure of the pressure building unit increases to a level not less than the pressure before the fluid replenishment preparation;
[0068] The fluid replenishment is completed; the brake fluid channel between the brake fluid reservoir and the pressure building unit is isolated, and the brake fluid channel between the pressure building unit and the wheel-end brake cylinder is connected. When ABS pressure relief is performed, the brake fluid channel between the wheel-end brake cylinder and the brake fluid reservoir is connected, and when ABS pressure relief is not performed, the brake fluid channel between the wheel-end brake cylinder and the brake fluid reservoir is isolated; the motor gradually reduces the first speed from the forward rotation at the third speed.
