Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0023] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily have to be used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order different from those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "comprising" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units does not necessarily have to be limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0024] According to one embodiment of the present invention, an embodiment of a control method for a series-parallel mode of a hybrid vehicle is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions, and although the logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that here.

[0025] This method embodiment can be executed in an electronic device or a similar computing device that includes a memory and a processor in a vehicle. Taking running on the electronic device of a vehicle as an example, as Figure 1 shown, the electronic device of the vehicle can include one or more processors 102 (the processor can include, but is not limited to, a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), a digital signal processing (DSP) chip, a microprocessor (MCU), a programmable logic device (FPGA), a neural network processor (NPU), a tensor processor (TPU), an artificial intelligence (AI) type processor, etc.) and a memory 104 for storing data. Optionally, the above-mentioned electronic device of the vehicle may further include a transmission device 106 for communication functions, an input / output device 108, and a display device 110. Those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that Figure 1 the structure shown is only schematic and does not limit the structure of the above-mentioned electronic device of the vehicle. For example, the electronic device of the vehicle may further include more or fewer components than those described in the above structure, or have a configuration different from that described in the above structure.

[0026] The memory 104 can be used to store computer programs, for example, software programs and modules of application software, such as the computer program corresponding to the control method of the series-parallel mode of the hybrid vehicle in the embodiments of the present invention. The processor 102 executes various functional applications and data processing by running the computer program stored in the memory 104, that is, implements the above-mentioned control method of the series-parallel mode of the hybrid vehicle. The memory 104 may include a high-speed random access memory, and may also include a non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic storage devices, flash memories, or other non-volatile solid-state memories. In some instances, the memory 104 may further include a memory remotely disposed relative to the processor 102, and these remote memories can be connected to the mobile terminal through a network. Examples of the above networks include, but are not limited to, the Internet, an intranet, a local area network, a mobile communication network, and combinations thereof.

[0029] Hybrid vehicles in the prior art generally include a pure electric drive mode, a series drive mode, and a parallel drive mode. Hybrid vehicles often cause the switching of drive modes due to related non-essential operations, which in turn leads to changes in the operating points of at least some components, resulting in poor driving performance and comfort of the whole vehicle. Most of the control strategies for drive modes in the prior art are designed from the perspective of vehicle economy, and the NVH performance of the whole vehicle is reduced during mode switching, greatly affecting the driving performance of the whole vehicle. To solve the above problems, the technical solution of this application starts from the perspective of keeping the drive mode as comfortable as possible, and provides a control method for the series-parallel mode of a hybrid vehicle, which can optimize the NVH of the whole vehicle to the greatest extent, prioritize meeting the NVH requirements, and solve the NVH problems caused by frequent mode switching.

[0030] In this embodiment, a control method for the series-parallel mode of a hybrid vehicle running on the electronic device of the above vehicle is provided. Figure 2 It is a flowchart of a control method for the series-parallel mode of a hybrid vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 2 shown, and the process includes the following steps:

[0031] Step S10, collect the engine speed and obtain the accelerator pedal signal;

[0032] Step S20, determine the target torque of the vehicle's drive system based on the accelerator pedal signal;

[0033] Step S30, determine a first threshold based on the speed. The first threshold is the maximum output power when the drive system executes the parallel drive mode under preset conditions.

[0034] It should be noted that the preset conditions are preset vehicle economy conditions. The first threshold is the maximum output power when the drive system executes the parallel drive mode under the preset economic conditions, that is, the maximum power that the engine and the power battery can provide under the preset economic conditions. When the target torque exceeds the maximum power of the drive system under the preset conditions, even if controlling the drive system to execute the series drive mode can meet the larger target torque demand, but because it does not meet the preset economic conditions, the drive system is controlled to execute the series drive mode. At this time, some parameters of the drive system executing the series drive mode can be adjusted to meet its increased target torque demand. The first threshold is Figure 3 the mode switching threshold in which the required power shown is less than the mode switching threshold, and the target torque is the required power.

[0035] Step 40, generate a first control instruction based on the first threshold and the target torque, where the first control instruction is used to control the drive system to execute the series drive mode.

[0036] Through the above steps, by determining the target torque of the drive system based on the accelerator pedal signal and determining the first threshold based on the rotational speed, a first control instruction is generated through the first threshold and the target torque. The first control instruction is used to control the drive system to execute the series drive mode, achieving the purpose of determining the drive mode of the drive system according to the output power and target torque of the drive system, thereby realizing the technical effect of preventing the vehicle from frequently switching to the parallel drive mode, keeping the drive mode of the vehicle stable to the greatest extent, and further solving the technical problem of the reduction of the vehicle's NVH performance caused by the frequent switching of the vehicle's drive mode, effectively improving the drivability of the vehicle and the comfort of passengers.

[0037] Optionally, in step S40, generating the first control instruction based on the first threshold and the target torque includes the following execution steps:

[0038] Judge whether the target torque is greater than or equal to the first threshold; in the case where the target torque is greater than or equal to the first threshold, generate the first control instruction based on the target torque. That is, only when the target torque is greater than or equal to the first threshold, control the drive system to execute the series drive mode. When the target torque is less than the first threshold and other preset conditions are met, control the drive system to execute the parallel drive mode. That is, the target torque being less than the first threshold is the lowest condition for controlling the drive system to start in the parallel drive mode or switch from the series drive mode to the parallel drive mode. When the target torque is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the drive system executes the series drive mode. The technical solution of this embodiment constructs a determination condition for the vehicle to switch to the parallel drive mode based on the target torque and the first threshold, which can effectively filter out some unnecessary mode switches, and thus improve the drivability and comfort of the whole vehicle.

[0039] Optionally, before judging whether the target torque is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the method further includes: collecting the vehicle speed, obtaining a second threshold, where the second threshold is the minimum speed required for the drive system to execute the parallel drive mode; in the case where the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the second threshold, judge whether the target torque is greater than or equal to the first threshold, and in the case where the vehicle speed is less than the second threshold, generate the first control instruction.

[0040] That is, to ensure that the drive system of the vehicle can execute the parallel drive mode or switch from the series drive mode to the parallel drive mode, the vehicle speed must be greater than the second threshold. The technical solution of this embodiment designs one of the conditions for executing the parallel drive mode through the vehicle speed, realizing the vehicle speed correction condition for preventing the vehicle from frequently switching modes.

[0041] Optionally, before collecting the vehicle speed, the method further includes: collecting the vehicle gear position and the engine state; in response to the gear position meeting the gear position preset condition and the engine state meeting the engine preset condition, collect the vehicle speed.

[0042] In the technical solution of this embodiment, the preset condition of the engine is that the engine is in the starting state, and the preset condition of the gear position is the driving gear position.

[0043] Optionally, determining the first threshold based on the rotational speed includes: obtaining comparison information, where the comparison information includes a preset universal characteristic table; based on the rotational speed, determining the output power corresponding to the rotational speed in the universal characteristic table as the first threshold.

[0044] That is to say, the first threshold is obtained by looking up the preset comparison information according to the rotational speed. Further, the first threshold corresponding to the rotational speed can be obtained by means of online evaluation and calculation of the first threshold.

[0045] Such as Figure 3 shown is a flowchart of one embodiment of the control method for the series-parallel mode of a hybrid vehicle. Among them, when the vehicle speed, required power (i.e., target torque), etc. meet the above-mentioned series-to-parallel mode switching conditions, the mode is switched, from series to parallel, and the vehicle is controlled to execute the parallel drive mode.

[0046] Optionally, after obtaining the accelerator pedal signal, the method further includes: determining the accelerator pedal opening value, accelerator pedal change rate, and accelerator pedal change amount based on the accelerator pedal signal; when the accelerator pedal signal does not meet any one of the first preset condition, the second preset condition, and the third preset condition, generating a second control instruction based on the accelerator pedal signal, where the first preset condition is that the accelerator pedal opening value is equal to the first preset value, the second preset condition is that the accelerator pedal change rate is greater than the second preset value, the third preset condition is that the accelerator pedal change amount is greater than the third preset value, and the second control instruction is used to control the drive system to execute the parallel drive mode.

[0047] In an alternative embodiment, the first preset condition is that the accelerator pedal opening value reaches 100%, the second preset condition is that the accelerator pedal change rate is greater than 25% / s, and the third preset condition is that the accelerator pedal change amount is greater than 10%. When the vehicle meets the first preset condition, it indicates that the vehicle may be in an emergency avoidance state. Therefore, when the first preset condition is met, the drive system needs to be controlled to execute the series drive mode to improve the dynamic performance of the vehicle. When the vehicle meets the second preset condition or the third preset condition, it indicates that the driver is stepping on the accelerator pedal relatively urgently at this time, and the vehicle needs to switch to the series drive mode to improve the dynamic performance. Therefore, when the accelerator pedal signal does not meet any one of the first preset condition, the second preset condition, and the third preset condition, controlling the drive system to execute the parallel drive mode can effectively perform accelerator pedal correction on unnecessary mode switching based on the accelerator pedal signal. Such a setting achieves different mode switching strategies according to different driver operations, and achieves a certain balance among power performance, economy, and NVH, and reaches the technical effect of balancing comfort and economy.

[0048] Optionally, when the accelerator pedal signal meets any one of the first preset condition, the second preset condition, and the third preset condition, the drive system enters the parallel - series mode switching preparation. In this preparation state, the driving mode intention of the driver is obtained to determine whether to control the drive system to operate in the series mode. Optionally, after determining the accelerator pedal opening value, the accelerator pedal change rate, and the accelerator pedal change amount based on the accelerator pedal signal, the method further includes:

[0049] Collect the vehicle speed;

[0050] In response to the accelerator pedal signal not meeting any one of the first preset condition, the second preset condition, and the third preset condition, when the accelerator pedal opening value meets the fourth preset condition and the vehicle speed meets the fifth preset condition, road condition information is obtained, where the road condition information includes the road gradient;

[0051] That is to say, the fourth preset condition is that the accelerator pedal opening value increases, and the fifth preset condition is that the vehicle speed decreases. When the vehicle meets both the fourth preset condition and the fifth preset condition, it indicates that the vehicle is in a special road condition environment and needs to increase the power output of the drive system. Among them, the special road condition environment includes going uphill.

[0052] Judge whether the road gradient is less than the preset gradient;

[0053] Optionally, the preset gradient is set to 5%.

[0054] In the case where the road gradient is less than the preset gradient, a second control instruction is generated.

[0055] In an alternative embodiment, after the vehicle enters the parallel mode drive, if the vehicle speed decreases during the process of increasing the throttle opening without meeting any one of the first preset condition, the second preset condition, and the third preset condition, it is judged according to the ramp value. If the ramp is less than 5%, the actual engine power is continuously increased according to the required power in the parallel mode to keep the vehicle speed unchanged, and no parallel - series mode switching is performed. If the ramp is not less than 5%, parallel - series mode switching is performed according to the actual power requirement. Such a setting achieves the technical effect of adopting different mode switching strategies according to the driving road ramp to ensure normal power demand while maintaining good NVH.

[0056] In an alternative embodiment, the driving mode of the driver is obtained. If the driving mode does not adopt the NVH - priority strategy, parallel - series mode switching is performed. If the driving mode adopts the NVH - priority strategy, no mode switching is performed. Generally, the comfort mode tends to consider the feelings of the driver and passengers and adopts the NVH - priority strategy, while the economy mode focuses on lower fuel consumption and does not adopt the NVH - priority strategy.

[0057] Adopting the technical solution of this application, on the premise of determining the driver's operation intention, by means of driving mode correction, accelerator pedal correction, etc., the driving mode is kept stable to the greatest extent to preferentially meet the NVH requirements and solve the NVH problems caused by frequent mode switching. At the same time, according to the different driving modes of the drive system and different series-parallel mode switching conditions, an adaptive drive mode switching is realized.

[0058] Figure 5 It is a structural block diagram of a control device for a series-parallel mode of a hybrid vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 5 shown, the device includes: an acquisition module 51 for acquiring the engine speed and the accelerator pedal signal; a first determination module 52 for determining the target torque of the vehicle's drive system based on the accelerator pedal signal; a second determination module 53 for determining a first threshold based on the speed, where the first threshold is the maximum output power when the drive system executes the parallel drive mode under preset conditions; a generation module 54 for generating a first control instruction based on the first threshold and the target torque, and the first control instruction is used to control the drive system to execute the series drive mode.

[0059] Through the above device, by determining the target torque of the drive system based on the accelerator pedal signal and determining the first threshold based on the speed, and generating a first control instruction through the first threshold and the target torque, the first control instruction is used to control the drive system to execute the series drive mode, achieving the purpose of determining the drive mode of the drive system according to the output power and target torque of the drive system, thereby realizing the technical effect of preventing the vehicle from frequently switching to the parallel drive mode, keeping the drive mode of the vehicle stable to the greatest extent, and further solving the technical problem of the reduction of the NVH performance of the whole vehicle caused by the frequent switching of the drive mode of the vehicle, effectively improving the drivability of the vehicle and the comfort of passengers.
