[0067] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0068] The accompanying drawings illustrate specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0069] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0070] First, let me explain the terms used in this application:

[0071] NVH: A comprehensive indicator for measuring vehicle ride comfort, focusing on all uncomfortable sounds and vibrations that the driver and passengers can hear and feel inside the vehicle. N: Noise; V: Vibration; H: Harshness.

[0072] Modal resonance frequency: The powertrain (such as motor and reducer) and body structure of a vehicle have their inherent vibration frequencies (i.e., modes). When the motor outputs a specific torque at a specific speed (corresponding to a specific vibration frequency), it may excite strong resonance in these components, resulting in noticeable noise or vibration.

[0073] Next, the technical background involved in this application will be explained:

[0074] During deceleration or braking, the vehicle recovers kinetic energy through the coordinated operation of the front and rear motors, converting braking energy into electrical energy stored in the battery. Therefore, the torque distribution between the front and rear motors directly affects energy recovery efficiency, vehicle dynamic stability, and NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) performance. For example:

[0075] In scenarios where economic efficiency is a priority, vehicles should prioritize maximizing energy recovery efficiency to extend driving range during low-speed cruising or urban congestion. In scenarios where driving comfort is a priority, vehicles should avoid NVH issues such as vibration and noise caused by motor torque fluctuations during high-speed driving or cornering, while maintaining consistent vehicle deceleration.

[0076] In existing technologies, a common approach is to: obtain the vehicle condition parameters of the target vehicle while it is in motion, obtain the driver's required torque and calculate the dynamic vertical load; calculate the road adhesion coefficient and grade of the four wheels of the target vehicle based on the dynamic vertical load, adjust to obtain the corrected driver's required torque, calculate and adjust the corrected front and rear axle torque distribution coefficient, obtain the front and rear axle torque, and transmit it to the motor controller for distribution.

[0077] However, the above solution has the following technical problems:

[0078] 1) The impact of motor efficiency and NVH performance was not considered when distributing the regenerative torque;

[0079] 2) Existing technology does not link regenerative braking with the chassis hydraulic braking system, which may lead to inconsistent vehicle deceleration during torque adjustment.

[0080] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, the inventors of this application propose the following concept: Existing torque distribution strategies mostly focus on energy consumption and power performance, neglecting the possibility that specific torque ranges may induce modal resonance in the transmission system, leading to NVH deterioration. In-depth analysis reveals that the risk of resonance frequencies being excited under different driving conditions is closely related to torque distribution. Therefore, by using the torque avoidance range pre-calibrated through NVH testing as the core decision-making basis, and dynamically combining it with real-time driving conditions and required torque, torque is intelligently distributed between the front and rear motors, fundamentally avoiding resonance points. This allows for the linking of current operating condition identification with deeper NVH performance, achieving the proactive suppression of vibration and noise while ensuring power requirements, thus improving the user experience.

[0081] The technical solution of this application and how the technical solution of this application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0082] The subject of this application is an electronic device, specifically a vehicle, a controller in the vehicle, a computer, a server, or other such device.

[0083] Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating the torque distribution method provided in this application embodiment. Figure 1 ,like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0084] Step 11: Determine the vehicle's driving conditions based on the vehicle's current speed and steering wheel angle;

[0085] In this step, the current speed of the vehicle varies, resulting in drastically different torque and stability requirements. The steering wheel angle directly reflects the driver's steering intention, and the size and rate of change of the angle can distinguish between straight driving, gentle curves around ramps, emergency obstacle avoidance, and aggressive cornering.

[0086] Furthermore, by combining the vehicle's current speed and steering wheel angle, the vehicle can determine the current driving conditions.

[0087] Optionally, driving conditions can be divided into: economic driving conditions and driving conditions.

[0088] Accordingly, one possible implementation of step 11 is: determining the vehicle's driving condition in a mapping table based on the vehicle's current speed and steering wheel angle, the mapping table recording the correspondence between different speeds, different steering angles, and different driving conditions.

[0089] Table 1 is a mapping table for determining driving conditions provided in the embodiments of this application, as shown in Table 1:

[0090] Table 1

[0091]

[0092] Among them, low speed can refer to a speed lower than the first preset speed; medium speed can refer to a speed not lower than the first preset speed and not higher than the second preset speed; high speed can refer to a speed not lower than the second preset speed.

[0093] Small turning angle can refer to a turning angle lower than the first preset angle; medium speed can refer to a turning angle not lower than the first preset turning angle and not higher than the second preset turning angle; high speed can refer to a turning angle not lower than the second preset turning angle.

[0094] For example, the first preset speed is 20 km / h; the second preset speed is 60 km / h; the first preset angle is 10 degrees; and the second preset angle is 30 degrees.

[0095] It should be understood that the numerical examples are for illustrative purposes only, and in actual situations, these numerical examples can be adjusted.

[0096] Step 12: Based on the driving conditions, the vehicle's required torque, and the pre-acquired NVH analysis results, determine the torque distribution to the front motor and the torque distribution to the rear motor of the vehicle.

[0097] Among them, the NVH analysis result is the torque avoidance range corresponding to the modal resonance frequency being greater than the threshold obtained through NVH performance testing;

[0098] In this step, after determining the driving conditions, the vehicle can obtain the current required torque, which can be the vehicle's current driving torque requirement or braking (regenerative) torque requirement. During actual torque distribution, the torque is allocated based on this required torque.

[0099] Then, the NVH analysis results are obtained, which indicate the torque range that the vehicle's torque distribution should avoid during actual distribution.

[0100] Subsequently, based on the above driving conditions, the vehicle's required torque, and the pre-acquired NVH analysis results, the torque distribution to the front motor and the torque distribution to the rear motor of the vehicle are determined. For specific implementation details, please refer to the following embodiments.

[0101] Step 13: Control the torque distribution of the vehicle based on the torque distributed by the front motor and the torque distributed by the rear motor.

[0102] In this step, after determining the torque distribution for the front motor and the torque distribution for the rear motor, the vehicle sends these two torque distributions as control commands to the front motor controller and the rear motor controller respectively via the vehicle's network (such as the CAN bus).

[0103] Subsequently, after receiving their respective torque commands, the front motor controller and the rear motor controller will perform precise closed-loop control, adjusting parameters such as the current and voltage of the input motor to enable the motor to output the specified torque.

[0104] The torque distribution method provided in this application determines the vehicle's driving conditions based on the vehicle's current speed and steering wheel angle. Based on these driving conditions, the vehicle's required torque, and pre-acquired NVH analysis results, it determines the torque distribution to the front and rear motors. The NVH analysis results are the torque avoidance range corresponding to modal resonance frequencies exceeding a threshold, obtained through NVH performance testing. The torque distribution is then controlled based on the front and rear motor torque distributions. This solution dynamically distributes torque between the front and rear motors by identifying driving conditions in real-time based on vehicle speed and steering wheel angle, and by coupling the vehicle's required torque with the NVH analysis results. This ensures efficient response to driving demands while actively avoiding resonance and other vehicle conditions, thereby significantly reducing overall vehicle vibration and noise levels and improving NVH performance and ride comfort.

[0105] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 2 A flowchart illustrating the torque distribution method provided in this application embodiment. Figure 2 ,like Figure 3 As shown, step 12 may include:

[0106] It should be understood that steps 24 and 25 below can be performed either one based on the actual situation, and there is no restriction on the order of execution.

[0107] Step 21: Based on the pre-obtained mapping relationship between torque and efficiency allocation ratio, obtain the target efficiency allocation ratio corresponding to the required torque;

[0108] In this step, the mapping relationship records the correspondence between different torques and different efficiency allocation ratios. After obtaining the required torque, the torque that is consistent with or closest to the required torque can be determined in the mapping relationship, and the efficiency allocation ratio corresponding to the torque is determined as the target efficiency allocation ratio.

[0109] For example, the target efficiency allocation ratio is 0.3.

[0110] Optionally, the mapping relationship between torque and efficiency distribution ratio can be obtained based on the efficiency data obtained from electric drive bench testing of the vehicle.

[0111] This implementation can be based on electric drive bench testing, and can include the following:

[0112] Step 1: Based on the adjustment of relevant signals in the test bench, obtain the different expected recovery torques Tqreq of the whole vehicle;

[0113] Step 2: For each desired recovered torque Tqreq, allocate it according to the allocation ratio α (α takes the value of 0%~100%, with N% as the step size, N can be 1, representing the proportion of the front motor in the total vehicle torque) and calculate the front and rear motor torques TqFr and TqRe after 100 allocations respectively.

[0114] Where TqFr is Tqreq α; TqRe is Tqreq (1-α).

[0115] Step 3: For each group of front and rear motor torques TqFr and TqRe, combined with the efficiency data from the motor bench test (front and rear motor speeds; front and rear motor torques; constructed efficiency MAP table), the actual efficiency η corresponding to that group of front and rear motors can be obtained. Fr and η Re ;

[0116] Step 4: For the torques TqFr and TqRe of each group of front and rear motors, obtain the actual speed n of the front and rear motors at this time based on the relevant signals. Fr and n Re ;

[0117] Step 5: For each group of front and rear motor torques TqFr and TqRe, determine the first value for each group;

[0118] The formula for calculating this first value is: TqFr n Fr / ηFr +TqRe n Re / η Re ;

[0119] Step 6: For each expected recovery torque Tqreq, the allocation ratio α with the largest absolute value of the first value among all groups under the expected recovery torque Tqreq is taken as the optimal efficiency allocation ratio, that is, the efficiency allocation ratio mentioned above.

[0120] Step 7: For each desired recovered torque Tqreq, there is a corresponding efficiency allocation ratio determined in Step 6, thus forming a mapping relationship between torque and efficiency allocation ratio.

[0121] Optionally, based on the efficiency distribution ratio in the mapping relationship for different required torques, NVH tests can be conducted at different vehicle speeds to obtain NVH analysis results.

[0122] This implementation can be based on electric drive bench testing, and can include the following:

[0123] Step 1: For each required torque, the efficiency allocation ratio corresponding to the required torque can be determined based on the above mapping relationship between torque and efficiency allocation ratio.

[0124] Step 2: Based on this efficiency allocation ratio, allocate the required torque to the front and rear motor torques;

[0125] Step 3: Based on each vehicle speed, assign different front and rear motor torques, and conduct NVH tests on the bench to obtain smooth and continuous modal resonance frequency information of the front and rear motor torques at that vehicle speed.

[0126] Step 4: Record the front motor torques whose modal resonance frequencies are greater than the threshold from the modal resonance frequency information, and then sort them by size;

[0127] Step 5: At this vehicle speed, determine the minimum front motor torque after sorting as the lower limit of the torque corresponding to the avoidance zone, and determine the maximum front motor torque as the upper limit of the torque corresponding to the avoidance zone.

[0128] Furthermore, the avoidance intervals corresponding to different vehicle speeds are determined as the NVH analysis results.

[0129] Step 22: Determine the initial torque allocation for the front motor based on the required torque and the target efficiency allocation ratio;

[0130] In this step, after determining the target efficiency allocation ratio, torque can be allocated to the front motor of the vehicle based on the target efficiency allocation ratio and the required torque to obtain the initial allocated torque of the front motor.

[0131] Step 23: Based on the NVH analysis results, determine whether the initial torque distribution of the front motor falls within the avoidance range;

[0132] In this step, based on the current vehicle speed, the corresponding avoidance range can be determined from the NVH analysis results.

[0133] Furthermore, it is determined whether the area is within the avoidance range based on the initial torque distribution of the front motor.

[0134] Step 24: If the initial torque distribution of the front motor does not fall within the avoidance range, then the initial torque distribution of the front motor is determined as the front motor distribution torque, and the torque distribution of the rear motor is determined according to the required torque.

[0135] Optionally, the implementation of motor torque distribution in step 24 after determining the required torque can include any of the following:

[0136] The first method is to determine the difference between the required torque and the torque distributed by the front motor as the torque distributed by the rear motor.

[0137] In this implementation, the difference between the required torque and the torque allocated to the front motor is determined, and this difference is used as the torque allocated to the rear motor.

[0138] The second method involves multiplying the difference between 1 and the target efficiency allocation ratio with the required torque to determine the allocated torque for the rear motor.

[0139] In this implementation, the difference between 1 and the target efficiency allocation ratio is first determined, then the product of the difference and the required torque is determined, and the product value is used as the allocated torque of the rear motor.

[0140] Step 25: If the initial torque distribution of the front motor is within the avoidance range, then determine the torque distribution of the front motor and the torque distribution of the rear motor based on the required torque, the avoidance range, and the driving conditions.

[0141] In this step, if the initial torque distribution of the front motor falls within the avoidance range, the initial torque distribution of the front motor needs to be adjusted.

[0142] Furthermore, based on the required torque, the avoidance range, and the driving conditions, the torque distribution to the front motor and the torque distribution to the rear motor are determined.

[0143] The torque distribution method provided in this application obtains the target efficiency distribution ratio corresponding to the required torque based on a pre-acquired mapping relationship between torque and efficiency distribution ratio; determines the initial distribution torque of the front motor based on the required torque and the target efficiency distribution ratio; determines whether the initial distribution torque of the front motor belongs to the avoidance range based on NVH analysis results; if the initial distribution torque of the front motor does not belong to the avoidance range, the initial distribution torque of the front motor is determined as the front motor distribution torque, and the distribution torque of the rear motor is determined based on the required torque. In this scheme, the optimal target efficiency distribution ratio is quickly matched for any required torque through a pre-established torque-efficiency distribution ratio mapping relationship, and the theoretically optimal initial distribution torque of the front motor is calculated accordingly; then, an NVH avoidance range is introduced for secondary verification. If the initial distribution torque is not within this range, the efficient distribution scheme is directly adopted, thereby prioritizing the overall operating efficiency of the system under most operating conditions. This achieves accurate and efficient execution of torque distribution based on optimal efficiency while reducing vibration and noise problems caused in specific torque ranges, ultimately maximizing the energy economy of the vehicle while ensuring driving smoothness and comfort.

[0144] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 3 A flowchart illustrating the torque distribution method provided in this application embodiment. Figure 4 ,like Figure 4 As shown, step 25, based on the required torque, avoidance range, and driving conditions, determines the torque distribution to the front motor and the torque distribution to the rear motor, which may include:

[0145] It should be understood that steps 31 and 32 can be performed either one based on the actual situation, and there is no restriction on the order of execution.

[0146] Step 31: If the driving condition is an economy condition, then the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range is determined as the torque distributed to the front motor.

[0147] Among them, the difference between the required torque and the torque distributed by the front motor is determined as the torque distributed by the rear motor;

[0148] In this step, when the vehicle is in an economical operating condition, in order to avoid the front motor's torque distribution being in the avoidance range, the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range can be used as the front motor's torque distribution, and the rear motor's torque distribution will be adjusted accordingly.

[0149] For example, if the avoidance range is (TqFr1, TqFr2), then the torque allocated to the front motor of the vehicle is determined to be TqFr1; the torque allocated to the rear motor is the required torque Tqreq-TqFr1.

[0150] Step 32: If the driving condition is a driving condition, the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range is determined as the torque distributed to the front motor, and the product of the difference between 1 and the target efficiency distribution ratio and the target ratio is determined as the torque distributed to the rear motor.

[0151] The target ratio is the ratio of the lower limit of torque in the avoidance range to the target efficiency allocation ratio.

[0152] In this step, when the vehicle is in a driving condition, in order to avoid the front motor torque distribution being in the avoidance range, the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range can be used as the front motor torque distribution.

[0153] Then, first determine the ratio α between 1 and the target efficiency. η The difference is used to determine the ratio of the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range to the target efficiency distribution ratio; then, the difference is multiplied by the ratio to obtain the torque distributed to the rear motor.

[0154] For example, if the avoidance interval is (TqFr1, TqFr2), then the torque allocated to the front motor of the vehicle is determined to be TqFr1; the torque allocated to the rear motor is the required torque TqFr1 / α. η (1-α η ).

[0155] Furthermore, it can also perform the following: determine the difference between the required torque and the target ratio as the compensation torque; and control the vehicle chassis to perform front and rear axle hydraulic compensation based on the compensation torque.

[0156] In this implementation, since the determined front motor and rear motor torque distributions cannot support the required torque under driving conditions, the chassis system is required to perform hydraulic compensation for the front and rear axles.

[0157] At this point, the difference between the required torque and the target ratio is first determined, and this difference is used as the compensation torque. Then, based on this compensation torque, the vehicle's chassis is controlled to perform hydraulic compensation on the front and rear axles.

[0158] For example, if the avoidance range is (TqFr1, TqFr2), the compensation torque is Tqreq - TqFr1 / α. η .

[0159] In one possible implementation, if the required torque is the regenerative braking torque, then the compensation torque is the compensation braking torque, thereby ensuring the consistency of the vehicle's deceleration.

[0160] The torque distribution method provided in this application embodiment determines the torque distribution to the front motor by: if the driving condition is an economical condition, then the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range is determined as the torque distributed to the front motor; the difference between the required torque and the torque distributed to the front motor is determined as the torque distributed to the rear motor; if the driving condition is a drivable condition, then the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range is determined as the torque distributed to the front motor, and the product of the difference between 1 and the target efficiency distribution ratio and the target ratio is determined as the torque distributed to the rear motor; wherein, the target ratio is the ratio of the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range to the target efficiency distribution ratio. In this technical solution, when the driving condition is economical, the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range is directly used as the torque allocated to the front motor, and the difference between the required torque and this value is allocated to the rear motor. This prioritizes avoiding the inefficient range, ensuring that the vehicle operates in the high-efficiency area and improving overall energy efficiency. In the driving condition, the lower limit of the torque in the avoidance range is also used as the torque allocated to the front motor, but the torque of the rear motor is dynamically calculated based on the target efficiency allocation ratio and its ratio with the lower limit of the avoidance range. This ensures smooth power response while taking into account vehicle operating efficiency, achieving an effective balance and optimization between economy and drivability.
