[0029] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the following provides a detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0030] As Figure 1 shown, in the field of automotive braking, generally, during the braking process, the piston push rod 112 itself moves to block the oil inlet 1113, thereby implementing the braking process. Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the master cylinder 11 is provided with an oil inlet 1113 communicating with the fuel tank 20. When the brake pedal is depressed, the piston push rod 112 moves, and only after the piston push rod 112 moves a certain distance can the oil inlet 1113 be blocked, resulting in a relatively long dead travel of the brake pedal at the initial stage of braking. In this case, if the braking sensitivity is to be improved, higher manufacturing precision of the master cylinder 11 and deformation precision of the spring are required.
[0031] Based on this, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, in one embodiment, a master cylinder assembly 10 is provided, including a master cylinder 11. The master cylinder 11 includes a cylinder block 111 and a piston push rod 112 disposed in the cylinder block 111. The piston push rod 112 is used to connect with the brake pedal. The cylinder block 111 of the master cylinder 11 is provided with an oil inlet 1113 and an oil outlet 1114. A switching valve 12 is provided on the cylinder block 111. The switching valve 12 is located at the oil inlet 1113, and the switching valve 12 is used to control the opening and closing of the oil inlet 1113 according to the movement process of the brake pedal.
[0032] During use, when the brake pedal is depressed, the switching valve 12 directly operates to block the oil inlet 1113, without waiting for the piston push rod 112 to move to block the oil inlet 1113. The response to the action of depressing the brake pedal is rapid and sensitive, thereby improving the sensitivity of the braking response and shortening the dead travel at the initial stage of braking.
[0033] Specifically, the switching valve 12 may include an electromagnetic valve. The electromagnetic valve may be electrically connected to a brake pedal switch or a stroke sensor of the brake pedal. As Figure 2 shown, when the brake pedal is depressed, the electromagnetic valve operates to block the oil inlet 1113, so that the brake fluid in the cylinder block 111 can only flow out from the oil outlet 1114. As Figure 3As shown, when the brake pedal is not depressed, the solenoid valve is in a reset state, the oil inlet 1113 is open, and the brake fluid flows back into the cylinder 111 .
[0034] Furthermore, an elastic reset member is provided between the piston push rod 112 and the end surface of the cylinder body 111. When the brake pedal is not stepped on, under the action of the elastic reset member, the piston push rod 112 moves to the initial position, waiting for the next braking process.
[0035] Optionally, the switch valve 12 may also be other valve body 121 structures, as long as when the brake pedal is stepped on, the switch valve 12 can operate to block the oil inlet 1113. For example, the switch valve 12 is a linkage structure connected to the pedal, and when the brake pedal is stepped on, the switch valve 12 moves to block the oil inlet 1113.
[0036] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the cylinder body 111 includes a cylinder body 1111 and an auxiliary housing 1112 disposed outside the cylinder body 1111. The piston push rod 112 is disposed in the cylinder body 1111, and when the brake pedal is stepped on, the piston push rod 112 moves in the cylinder body 1111. An oil through hole 1115 is disposed at the position where the auxiliary housing 1112 is disposed on the cylinder body 1111, so that the brake fluid can flow freely in the cylinder body 1111 and the auxiliary housing 1112. The oil inlet 1113 is disposed on the auxiliary housing 1112, and the switch valve 12 is located in the auxiliary housing 1112.
[0037] When the brake pedal is stepped on, the switch valve 12 moves in the auxiliary housing 1112 to block the oil inlet 1113. As the piston push rod 112 continues to move, the space for accommodating the brake fluid in the cylinder body 1111 is reduced, and the brake fluid in the cylinder body 1111 automatically flows to the oil outlet 1114 and flows out from the oil outlet 1114 to implement the braking process.
[0038] Since the switch valve 12 is arranged outside the cylinder body 1111, the movement of the piston push rod 112 is not hindered, thereby improving the sensitivity and ensuring the normal movement of the piston push rod 112.
[0039] More specifically, if Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the cross-section of the cylinder body 1111 is consistent with the cross-section of the piston in the piston push rod 112. For example, the cylinder body 1111 is a cylindrical barrel, and the moving direction of the piston push rod 112 in the cylinder body 111 is along the axial direction of the cylinder body 1111.
[0040] Further, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, in one embodiment, the oil outlet 1114 is provided on the auxiliary housing 1112. Based on the oil passing through hole 1115 connecting the space in the cylinder body 1111 and the space enclosed by the auxiliary housing 1112, when the brake pedal is depressed, the brake fluid in the cylinder body 1111 can flow through the oil passing through hole 1115 to the oil outlet 1114.
[0041] It should be noted that in order to avoid the situation where the movement of the piston push rod 112 blocks the oil passing through hole 1115, resulting in the inability of the brake fluid to be discharged from the oil outlet 1114. In one embodiment, in the axial direction of the cylinder body 1111, the oil passing through hole 1115 is at least flush with the oil outlet 1114, or the oil passing through hole 1115 is located on the side of the oil outlet 1114 away from the piston push rod 112.
[0042] For example, in one embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the oil passing through hole 1115 includes a plurality of small holes, and the plurality of small holes are arranged at intervals and distributed between the oil inlet 1113 and the oil outlet 1114.
[0043] Further, in one embodiment, the position where the piston push rod 112 stops moving when the brake pedal is depressed is the stop position. When the brake pedal is not depressed, the position where the piston push rod 112 is located is the start position. When the piston push rod 112 is at the stop position, the part of the oil passing through hole 1115 in the conducting state is located on the side of the piston push rod 112 away from the initial position.
[0044] In other words, when the oil passing through hole 1115 includes a plurality of small holes, when the piston push rod 112 is at the stop position, the small holes in the conducting state are located on the side of the piston push rod 112 away from the initial position. Thus, it can not only make the brake fluid in the cylinder body 1111 flow to the oil outlet 1114, but also ensure that the part of the space enclosed by the cylinder body on the side of the piston push rod 112 close to the start position is not in communication with the space on the other side, ensuring the smooth progress of the braking process.
[0045] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the switch valve 12 includes two valve bodies 121, one of the valve bodies 121 is located at the oil inlet 1113, and is used to control the switch of the oil inlet 1113 according to the movement process of the brake pedal, and the other valve body 121 is located at the oil outlet 1114, and is used to control the switch of the oil outlet 1114 according to the movement process of the brake pedal.
[0046] When the brake pedal is stepped on, the switch valve 12 operates, the valve body 121 corresponding to the oil inlet 1113 blocks the oil inlet 1113, and the oil outlet 1114 is in a conducting state. When the brake pedal is not stepped on, the switch valve 12 is reset, the valve body 121 corresponding to the oil outlet 1114 blocks the oil outlet 1114, and the valve body 121 corresponding to the oil inlet 1113 is reset, so that the oil inlet 1113 is conducting.
[0047] More specifically, in one embodiment, the oil inlet 1113 and the oil outlet 1114 are sequentially arranged at intervals in the axial direction of the piston push rod 112. The two valve bodies 121 are connected, and the two valve bodies 121 are sequentially arranged in the axial direction of the piston push rod 112, and the spacing between the two valve bodies 121 is not equal to the spacing between the oil inlet 1113 and the oil outlet 1114. Therefore, when the two valve bodies 121 move, only the oil inlet 1113 or the oil outlet 1114 can be blocked, and the oil inlet 1113 and the oil outlet 1114 will not be blocked at the same time.
[0048] The two valve bodies 121 move synchronously. When the brake pedal is stepped on, the two valve bodies 121 move to a position where one of the valve bodies 121 blocks the oil inlet 1113 and the oil outlet 1114 is connected; after the brake pedal is reset, the two valve bodies 121 move synchronously to a position where one of the valve bodies 121 blocks the oil outlet 1114 and the oil inlet 1113 is connected.
[0049] Further, in one embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the brake master cylinder 11 is provided with an intermediate piston 113, and the intermediate piston 113 divides the cavity in the brake master cylinder 11 into a first cavity 114 and a second cavity 115 in the axial direction. A first elastic return member 1131 is provided between the intermediate piston 113 and the piston push rod 112, and a second elastic return member 1132 is provided between the end of the brake master cylinder 11 away from the piston push rod 112 and the intermediate piston 113. Specifically, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first elastic return member 1131 and the second elastic return member 1132 can be compression springs.
[0050] When the brake pedal is depressed, the piston push rod 112 moves. Under the action of the first elastic reset member 1131, the intermediate piston 113 moves, and the second elastic reset member 1132 is compressed. As the moving distance of the piston push rod 112 increases, both the first spring reset member 1131 and the second spring reset member 1132 are in a compressed state.
[0051] Further, one oil inlet 1113 and one oil outlet 1114 form a set of oil ports. Two sets of oil ports are provided on the cylinder block 111. One set of oil ports is communicated with the first cavity 114, and the other set of oil ports is communicated with the second cavity 115. There are two switching valves 12, and the switching valves 12 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the sets of oil ports.
[0052] When the brake pedal is depressed, both of the two switching valves 12 operate, so that the oil inlets 1113 in the two sets of oil ports are blocked. Thus, the brake fluid in the first cavity 114 and the second cavity 115 can only flow out from the corresponding oil outlets 1114. The brake fluid flowing out from the first cavity 114 and the brake fluid flowing out from the second cavity 115 can be respectively used to control the braking of the left and right wheels. Based on the process that the two oil inlets 1113 are blocked is caused by the active movement of the two switching valves 12. In other words, when the brake pedal is depressed, both of the two switching valves 12 operate, thereby synchronously blocking the two oil inlets 1113, so as to make the braking processes of the left and right wheels synchronous and improve the synchronous consistency of the braking of the left and right wheels.
[0053] Further, the two switching valves 12 can share an electromagnetic coil, so that the valve bodies 121 of the two switching valves 12 are controlled by the same electromagnetic coil, further improving the synchronism of the opening and closing of the two oil inlets 1113.
[0054] More specifically, in one embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the switching valve 12 includes two valve bodies 121. Then, the two switching valves 12 altogether include four valve bodies 121. The four valve bodies 121 are sequentially connected in the axial direction of the piston push rod 112. The two valve bodies 121 of the same switching valve 12 respectively correspond to the oil inlet 1113 and the oil outlet 1114 of the same set of oil ports. The two switching valves 12 share an electromagnetic coil for controlling the movement of the valve bodies 121.
[0055] As Figure 2As shown, when the brake pedal is stepped on, the solenoid coil is energized and the valve body 121 is attracted, the two valve bodies 121 corresponding to the oil inlet 1113 block the oil inlet 1113, and the two valve bodies 121 corresponding to the oil outlet 1114 are offset from the oil outlet 1114, and the oil outlet 1114 is connected. Figure 3 As shown, when the brake pedal is not depressed, the electromagnet coil is de-energized, and under the reset action of the spring in the electromagnet coil, the four valve bodies 121 connected to each other move, and the two valve bodies 121 corresponding to the oil inlet 1113 move to be offset from the corresponding oil inlet 1113, and the oil inlet 1113 is connected, and the two valve bodies 121 corresponding to the oil outlet 1114 respectively block the two oil outlets 1114.
[0056] Furthermore, in another embodiment, a braking system is provided, including a brake pedal and the above-mentioned brake master cylinder assembly 10 , wherein the brake pedal is arranged on the piston push rod 112 , and when the brake pedal is stepped on, the piston push rod 112 moves into the brake master cylinder 11 .
[0057] The above scheme provides a braking system, which effectively improves the sensitivity of the braking system during braking and shortens the idle travel of the brake pedal in the initial stage of being stepped on by adopting the brake master cylinder assembly 10 in any of the above embodiments.
[0058] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the braking system further includes a detection component and a controller electrically connected to each other, the detection component is used to detect whether the brake pedal is depressed, and the switch valve 12 is electrically connected to the controller.
[0059] When the detection element detects that the brake pedal is stepped on, the controller controls the switch valve 12 to operate and block the oil inlet 1113. Further, when the detection element detects that the brake pedal is not stepped on, the controller can also control the switch valve 12 to reset and make the oil inlet 1113 conductive.
[0060] Specifically, the detection member may include a pedal switch member, or the detection member may include a pedal forming detection member.
[0061] Furthermore, in yet another embodiment, Figure 4 A braking system control method is provided for controlling the above braking system, and the braking system control method comprises the following steps:
[0062] Acquire a signal of whether the brake pedal is depressed;
[0063] If the signal shows that the brake pedal is stepped on, the switch valve 12 is controlled to operate, the oil inlet 1113 is blocked, and the oil outlet 1114 is connected.
[0064] A braking system control method provided by the above solution is used to control the braking system described in any of the above embodiments. When the acquired signal indicates that the brake pedal is depressed, the switching valve 12 is actively controlled to operate, blocking the oil inlet 1113, thereby improving the sensitivity of the braking process.
[0065] Further, in one embodiment, the braking system control method further includes the following steps:
[0066] If the signal indicates that the brake pedal is not depressed, the switching valve 12 is controlled to reset, blocking the oil outlet 1114 and conducting the oil inlet 1113.
[0067] The switching valve 12 is correspondingly arranged with the oil inlet 1113 and the oil outlet 1114, so that the switching valve 12 can switch between two states of blocking the oil inlet 1113 or blocking the oil outlet 1114. The state of the switching valve 12 is controlled according to the acquired signal indicating whether the brake pedal is depressed.
