Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a method and device for calculating the transient vertical load of a vehicle tire, equipment and a storage medium. Background Art
[0002] The force and torque between the tire and the ground directly determine the vehicle's motion state. It can be said that the stress state of the tire directly determines the vehicle's handling performance, stability, power, braking, comfort and even passability. Especially with the development of automobile electrification and intelligence, it provides a very large degree of freedom for various dynamic controls of the vehicle. At the same time, it puts forward higher requirements for the real-time detection of the vehicle's motion state, including the real-time monitoring of the ground contact state and stress state of the tire and the ground. For example, if the wheel is out of contact with the ground, it is not good for the vehicle's handling, stability, power, braking, etc.; for another example, the size of the vertical load of the vehicle tire directly determines the limit of the road adhesion, and also determines the limit of the driving force and braking force of a single wheel.
[0003] Currently, there are tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) products, but existing vehicles do not have real-time perception and identification capabilities for their own ground contact status during driving, including whether the wheels are grounded (for example, the wheels are impacted or lose contact with the ground through a pit), and how to accurately identify and calculate the size of the vehicle tire's real-time vertical load in real time. Existing technology cannot detect or perceive this in a stable, reliable, and real-time manner.

[0081] The realization, functional features, and advantages of the object of the present invention will be further described in conjunction with the embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed implementation manners
[0082] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0083] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the hardware operating environment and the structure of the device for calculating the transient vertical load of a vehicle tire involved in the embodiment solution of the present invention.

Among them, the communication bus 1002 is used to realize the connection and communication between these components. The user interface 1003 may include a display screen (Display) and an input unit such as a keyboard (Keyboard). Optionally, the user interface 1003 may also include a standard wired interface and a wireless interface. The network interface 1004 may optionally include a standard wired interface and a wireless interface (such as a Wireless-Fidelity (Wi-Fi) interface). The memory 1005 may be a high-speed Random Access Memory (RAM) or a stable Non-Volatile Memory (NVM), such as a disk memory. Optionally, the memory 1005 may also be a storage device independent of the aforementioned processor 1001.
[0085] Those skilled in the art can understand that Figure 1 the structure shown in does not constitute a limitation on the vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation device, and may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine some components, or have different component arrangements.
[0086] As Figure 1 shown, the memory 1005, as a storage medium, may include an operating system, a network communication module, a user interface module, and a vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation program.
[0087] In Figure 1 the vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation device shown, the network interface 1004 is mainly used for data communication with a network server; the user interface 1003 is mainly used for data interaction with a user; the processor 1001 and the memory 1005 in the vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation device of the present invention may be arranged in the vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation device. The vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation device calls the vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation program stored in the memory 1005 through the processor 1001 and executes the vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation method provided by the embodiments of the present invention.
[0088] The embodiments of the present invention provide a vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation method. Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a schematic flowchart of the first embodiment of the vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation method of the present invention.
[0089] In this embodiment, the execution subject of this embodiment can be a vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation device, which has functions such as data processing, data communication, and program operation. The calculation device can be a terminal device such as a computer. Of course, it can also be other devices with similar functions, and this embodiment does not limit this. For the convenience of description, this embodiment is described by taking the vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation device as an example.
[0090] In this embodiment, the vehicle tire transient vertical load calculation method includes the following steps:
[0091] Step S10: Obtain the vehicle signals and vehicle parameters of the target vehicle when it is running.
[0092] The vehicle parameters include the wheel weight of the target vehicle in the unloaded and ready-to-run state, the stiffness of each elastic component, the lever ratio of each elastic component relative to the wheel, the total stiffness of the suspension link bushings converted to the wheel end, the characteristic data of the shock absorber damping force - shock absorber relative movement speed, the lever ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel, the unsprung mass of each suspension of the vehicle, the upper limit value of the suspension upward travel of the target vehicle suspension relative to the unloaded and ready-to-run state, the maximum elastic force of the suspension corresponding to when the suspension is compressed to the upper limit value of the wheel upward travel relative to the unloaded and ready-to-run state, the lower limit value of the suspension downward travel of the target vehicle suspension relative to the unloaded and ready-to-run state, and the maximum elastic force of the suspension corresponding to when the suspension is stretched to the lower limit value of the wheel downward travel relative to the unloaded and ready-to-run state.
[0093] The vehicle signals include the dynamic displacement of each wheel relative to the vehicle body of the target vehicle and the acceleration of the unsprung mass of each suspension.
[0094] Step S20: Detect and calculate and identify whether the wheels of the target vehicle are grounded.
[0095] It should be noted that the vehicle tire being separated from the ground contact will have extremely adverse effects on the vehicle's handling performance, stability, power performance, braking performance, etc. Moreover, it is also necessary to ensure that the wheels are grounded before calculating the real-time transient vertical load of the tire. Based on this background, a method for real-time calculating and identifying whether the wheels are grounded is proposed.
[0096] In this embodiment, in combination with Figure 3 the detection and calculation and identification of whether the wheels of the target vehicle are grounded and the overall process of this embodiment of the present invention are described.
[0097] Such as Figure 3As shown in the figure, after obtaining the necessary vehicle parameters and vehicle signals, the wheel grounding identification calculation model and calculation identification method described in the present invention are used to determine whether the wheel is grounded, including: whether the relative body is compressed to the stroke limit and the wheel is off the ground, whether the wheel is stretched relative to the body to the stroke limit and the wheel is off the ground, and whether the wheel is grounded under the condition that the suspension is not compressed to the limit or stretched to the limit based on the wheel grounding identification calculation model. If all the above calculation and identification steps determine that the wheel is grounded, the real-time transient vertical load of the tire is further calculated according to vehicle signals and vehicle parameters such as the height between springs, the acceleration under the spring, and the relative speed of the shock absorber. Conversely, if it is determined that the wheel is not grounded, it can be considered that the transient vertical load Ft = 0.
[0098] Further, the above-mentioned height between springs and the acceleration between springs can be obtained by height sensors and acceleration sensors provided on the vehicle. The settings of the height sensors and acceleration sensors are as Figure 4 shown. In Figure 4 , A is the height sensor, B is the acceleration sensor, and Ft represents the transient vertical load of the tire. Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the installation of sensors on a single wheel. Further, as Figure 5 shown, the system composition and principle of the vehicle wheel grounding identification calculation and tire transient vertical load calculation are described. Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 5 , FL, FR, RL, and RR in it are the four suspensions corresponding to the vehicle. Height sensors and acceleration sensors are installed on each suspension. The controller of the whole vehicle communicates through the CAN network to calibrate and output the vertical load of the vehicle. The controller includes an MCU micro-control unit module, a power supply module, a communication module, a constant current module, etc.
[0099] Step S30: When the wheel of the target vehicle is grounded, calculate the transient vertical load of the tire of the target vehicle at the corresponding moment according to the vehicle signal and vehicle parameter.
[0100] In a specific implementation, if the wheel of the target vehicle is grounded, in this embodiment, the transient vertical load of the tire can be calculated according to the wheel weight of the target vehicle in the unloaded and ready state, the stiffness of each elastic component, the lever ratio of each elastic component relative to the wheel, the total stiffness of the suspension link bushings at the wheel end, the F-V characteristic data of the shock absorber damping force - shock absorber relative movement speed, and the lever ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel. These vehicle parameters and the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle and the acceleration of the mass under the spring extracted from the vehicle signal. Conversely, if the wheel of the target vehicle is not grounded, it can be considered that the transient vertical load at this time is 0.
[0101] In this embodiment, vehicle signals and vehicle parameters of the target vehicle during operation are obtained; based on a wheel grounding identification calculation model, it is calculated and identified whether the wheels of the target vehicle are grounded; when the wheels of the target vehicle are grounded, the transient vertical load of the tires of the target vehicle at the corresponding moment is calculated in real time according to the vehicle signals and vehicle parameters.
[0102] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 6 is a schematic flowchart of the second embodiment of a method for calculating the transient vertical load of a vehicle tire according to the present invention.
[0103] Based on the above first embodiment, in the method for calculating the transient vertical load of the vehicle tire in this embodiment, the step S30 includes:
[0104] Step S301: Extract the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle and the acceleration of the unsprung mass from the vehicle signals.
[0105] In specific implementation, in this embodiment, when calculating the transient vertical load, it is necessary to first extract the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle and the acceleration of the unsprung mass from the vehicle signals.
[0106] Step S302: Calculate the transient vertical load of the tires of the target vehicle at the corresponding moment according to the wheel weight of the target vehicle in the unloaded and ready state, the stiffness of each elastic component, the leverage ratio of each elastic component relative to the wheel, the total stiffness of the suspension link bushings at the wheel end, the characteristic data of the shock absorber damping force - shock absorber relative movement speed, the leverage ratio of each shock absorber relative to the wheel, the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle, the unsprung mass of each vehicle suspension, and the acceleration of the unsprung mass, etc.
[0107] In a specific implementation, after obtaining the wheel weights of the target vehicle in the unloaded and ready state, the stiffnesses of the respective elastic components, the lever ratios of the respective elastic components relative to the wheels, the total stiffness of the suspension link bushings at the wheel ends, the characteristic data of the shock absorber damping force - shock absorber relative movement speed, the lever ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel, the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body, the unsprung masses of the respective suspensions of the vehicle, and the acceleration of the unsprung masses, etc., according to the stiffnesses of the respective elastic components, the lever ratios of the respective elastic components relative to the wheels, and the equivalent stiffness of the suspension bushings at the wheel ends, the equivalent total stiffness of all the elastic components of the corresponding suspension at the wheel end can be calculated; according to the equivalent total stiffness of all the elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end and the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body, the equivalent load change amount of all the elastic components of the corresponding suspension relative to the unloaded and ready state at the wheel end at the corresponding moment is calculated in real time; in a specific implementation, the suspension load - wheel end displacement curve data can also be obtained through suspension K&C characteristic simulation calculation or by actually measuring the vehicle, and the curve data is as Figure 11 shown, and then the equivalent load change amount of all the elastic components of the corresponding suspension relative to the unloaded and ready state at the wheel end at the corresponding moment is directly retrieved through the dynamic displacement (Z b -Z t ) of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body; by performing differential calculation on the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body, the relative movement speed of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body is obtained; according to the relative movement speed of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body and the lever ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel, the relative movement speed when the shock absorber acts is calculated; according to the relative movement speed when the shock absorber acts, the shock absorber damping force - shock absorber actuation relative speed database is retrieved to obtain the real-time damping force of the shock absorber; according to the real-time damping force of the shock absorber and the lever ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel, the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber damping force at the wheel end is calculated; according to the unsprung masses of the respective suspensions of the vehicle and the acceleration of the unsprung masses, the dynamic load of the unsprung masses is calculated; according to the wheel weights of the target vehicle in the unloaded and ready state, the equivalent load change amount of all the elastic components of the suspension relative to the unloaded and ready state at the wheel end, the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber at the wheel end, and the dynamic load of the unsprung masses, the transient vertical load of the tires of the target vehicle at the corresponding moment is calculated in real time.
[0108] It should be noted that the calculation formula of the tire transient vertical load can be derived through the Figure 7 theoretical analysis model of the vehicle tire vertical load shown as follows, and the specific derivation process is as follows:
[0109]
[0110]
[0111] From (2), it can be obtained that
[0112]
[0113] From (1) and (2), it can be obtained that
[0114]
[0115] Substituting (3) into (4), the following formula (5) can be obtained
[0116]
[0117] Meanwhile, as Figure 7 shown, considering the suspension of a quarter vehicle as an overall analysis, the following dynamic equation can be established
[0118]
[0119] Substituting (5) into (6), the following formula (7) can be obtained
[0120]
[0121] Thus, the calculation expression of the tire vertical load can be obtained as
[0122]
[0123] In formulas (1) to (8), the descriptions of each physical quantity are as follows
[0124] M b is the sprung mass of the suspension (quarter body mass), K s is the suspension stiffness, C d is the suspension damping coefficient, K t is the tire radial stiffness, C t is the tire damping coefficient, m t is the unsprung mass of the suspension, Z b is the displacement of the sprung mass, Z t is the wheel displacement, Z r is the road surface roughness input, F d is the external disturbance input, F t is the tire transient vertical load
[0125] It can be seen from the above formula (8) that the vertical wheel load can be composed of the gravity of the sprung mass, the gravity of the unsprung mass, the equivalent elastic force of the suspension system at the wheel end, the equivalent damping force of the suspension system, and the dynamic load of the unsprung mass. The contact state between the tire and the ground is complex. However, as can be seen from the above formula, the tire transient vertical load, which is difficult to detect and has an extremely fast change speed, can theoretically be converted into physical quantities that are easy to detect and have a mature and reliable acquisition method for conversion calculation, and can theoretically be detected in real time and accurately calculated.
[0126] Based on the above theoretical derivation, further, the present invention considers the engineering implementation method. Relatively speaking, the no-load state is selected as the reference state for calculation based on the above formula, and the following formula (9) is used to calculate the tire transient vertical load based on the theory of the above formula (8):
[0127] F t =G Mb +G mt +ΔF Ks +ΔF Cd +ΔF t (9)
[0128] It should be noted that formula (9) is the final formula used for calculating the transient vertical load.
[0129] In formula (9), G Mb =M b g represents the gravity borne by the sprung mass M b , g is the acceleration due to gravity, and M b represents the sprung mass of a single suspension in the no-load and ready-to-run state; G mt =m t g represents the gravity borne by the unsprung mass of a single suspension. Among them, m t represents the unsprung mass of a single suspension in the no-load and ready-to-run state. In specific implementation, the wheel weights at the ground contact points of each wheel of the target vehicle in the no-load and ready-to-run state can be directly measured, and the wheel weights can be equivalently substituted for G Mb +G mt .
[0130] In formula (9), ΔF Cd represents the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber damping force at the wheel end. Comparing with formula (8), In specific implementation, the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber damping force at the wheel end can be calculated from the damping force - shock absorber relative movement speed data of the shock absorber and the lever ratio of the shock absorber, that is Among them, ΔF Cd0 represents the real-time damping force of the shock absorber, and ρ dIndicates the lever ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel. The real-time damping force of the shock absorber can be obtained by looking up the damping force-dynamic relative speed database of the shock absorber according to the relative movement speed during the operation of the shock absorber. The relative movement speed during the operation of the shock absorber can be obtained in the following way: the dynamic displacement (Z b -Z t ) of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle can be obtained from the signal collected by the height sensor, and then by differentiating the dynamic displacement of the body of the target vehicle, the relative movement speed of the body of the target vehicle can be obtained, that is, differentiating Z b -Z t to obtain Then, multiply this value by the lever ratio ρ d of the shock absorber relative to the wheel to obtain the relative movement speed during the operation of the shock absorber.
[0131] In Equation (9), ΔF Ks represents the change in the equivalent load at the wheel end of all elastic components of the suspension relative to the unloaded and ready-to-drive state. Comparing with Equation (8), ΔF Ks =K s ΔZ s =K s (Z b -Z t ), where K s represents the equivalent total stiffness of all elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end, and Z b -Z t represents the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle. Further, where K si represents the stiffness of each elastic component, ρ si represents the lever ratio of each elastic component relative to the wheel. For example, as Figure 4 shown, the lever ratio of the spring relative to the wheel end is L1 / L2, where L2 is the stroke at the wheel end and L1 is the deformation of the spring when the wheel end stroke is L2; for accurate calculation, the lever ratios of each elastic component relative to different strokes at the wheel end can be calculated and output by the suspension K&C characteristic simulation model, as Figure 8 shown; K b represents the equivalent stiffness of each bushing of the suspension at the wheel end. In specific implementation, in addition to using the above formula to calculate ΔF Ks at different positions of the suspension stroke, the suspension load-wheel end displacement curve data can also be obtained through suspension K&C characteristic simulation calculation or actual measurement. The curve data is as Figure 11 shown, and then the elastic force corresponding to the wheel end stroke can be directly obtained by looking up the dynamic displacement (Z b -Z t ) of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle;
[0132] Further, ΔFt represents the dynamic load of the unsprung mass, where m t represents the unsprung mass, represents the vibration acceleration of the unsprung mass, which can be measured by an acceleration sensor.
[0133] In this embodiment, after obtaining the wheel weight of the target vehicle in the unloaded and ready state, the stiffness of each elastic component, the leverage ratio of each elastic component relative to the wheel, the total stiffness of the suspension link bushings at the wheel end, the characteristic data of the shock absorber damping force - shock absorber relative movement speed, the leverage ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel, the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body, the unsprung mass of each suspension of the vehicle, and the acceleration of the unsprung mass, etc., according to the stiffness of each elastic component, the leverage ratio of each elastic component relative to the wheel, and the equivalent stiffness of the suspension bushings at the wheel end, the equivalent total stiffness of all elastic components of the corresponding suspension at the wheel end can be calculated; according to the equivalent total stiffness of all elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end and the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body, the equivalent load change amount of all elastic components of the corresponding suspension relative to the unloaded and ready state at the wheel end at the corresponding moment is calculated in real time; by differentiating the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body, the relative movement speed of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body is obtained; according to the relative movement speed of the wheel relative to the target vehicle body and the leverage ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel, the relative movement speed when the shock absorber acts is calculated; according to the relative movement speed when the shock absorber acts, the shock absorber damping force - shock absorber actuation relative speed database is queried to obtain the real-time damping force of the shock absorber; according to the real-time damping force of the shock absorber and the leverage ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel, the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber damping force at the wheel end is calculated; according to the unsprung mass of each suspension of the vehicle and the acceleration of the unsprung mass, etc., the dynamic load of the unsprung mass is calculated; according to the wheel weight of the target vehicle in the unloaded and ready state, the equivalent load change amount of all elastic components of the suspension relative to the unloaded and ready state at the wheel end, the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber at the wheel end, and the dynamic load of the unsprung mass, the transient vertical load of the tire of the target vehicle at the corresponding moment is calculated in real time.
[0134] Reference Figure 9 , Figure 9 is a schematic flow chart of the third embodiment of a method for calculating the transient vertical load of a vehicle tire according to the present invention.
[0135] Based on the above first or second embodiment, a third embodiment of a method for calculating the transient vertical load of a vehicle tire according to the present invention is proposed.
[0136] In this embodiment, the step S20 specifically includes:
[0137] The step S201: When any of the following conditions is met, it is determined that the wheels of the target vehicle are not in contact with the ground:
[0138] The acceleration difference between the measured unsprung mass acceleration of the target vehicle and the unsprung mass acceleration calculated by the wheel grounding identification analysis model is within a preset deviation range; the wheels of the target vehicle are compressed to the upper limit position of the suspension stroke and are in a suspended state off the ground; the wheels of the target vehicle are stretched to the lower limit position of the suspension stroke and are in a suspended state off the ground.
[0139] In a specific implementation, in this embodiment, three methods are used to detect and calculate whether the wheels are in contact with the ground.
[0140] The first method is to calculate and identify whether the wheels are in contact with the ground through a wheel grounding identification analysis model.
[0141] Specifically, first, according to the stiffness of each elastic component, the leverage ratio of each elastic component relative to the wheel end, and the equivalent stiffness of the suspension bushing at the wheel end, calculate the equivalent total stiffness of all elastic components of the corresponding suspension at the wheel end; according to the equivalent total stiffness of all elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end and the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle, calculate the equivalent load change amount of all elastic components of the corresponding suspension at the wheel end relative to the unloaded and ready-to-drive state in real time.
[0142] In addition, in this embodiment, other methods can also be adopted to obtain the equivalent load change amount of all elastic components at the wheel end relative to the unloaded and ready-to-drive state. For example, through suspension K&C characteristic simulation calculation or measuring and outputting the suspension load-displacement curve data of the vehicle in the unloaded and ready-to-drive state. The curve data is as Figure 11 shown. This data represents the equivalent load change amount of all elastic components at the wheel end corresponding to the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle (representing the different wheel end strokes of the wheel end relative to the unloaded and ready-to-drive state). The equivalent load change amount of all elastic components of the corresponding suspension at the wheel end relative to the unloaded and ready-to-drive state at the corresponding moment can be directly obtained through the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle (Z b -Z t );
[0143] Perform differential calculation according to the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle to obtain the relative movement speed of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle; calculate the relative movement speed during the operation of the shock absorber according to the relative movement speed of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle and the leverage ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel; look up the database of shock absorber damping force - relative movement speed during the operation of the shock absorber according to the relative movement speed during the operation of the shock absorber to obtain the real-time damping force of the shock absorber; calculate the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber damping force at the wheel end according to the real-time damping force of the shock absorber and the leverage ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel.
[0144] According to the change amount of the equivalent load of all elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end under the no-load and ready-to-drive state, the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber damping force at the wheel end, the gravity of the unsprung mass, and the unsprung mass of the suspension, calculate the theoretical acceleration of the unsprung mass when the wheel is not in contact with the ground;
[0145] Calculate the acceleration difference between the measured acceleration of the unsprung mass and the theoretical acceleration of the unsprung mass when the wheel is not in contact with the ground;
[0146] Compare the acceleration difference between the measured acceleration of the unsprung mass of the target vehicle and the acceleration of the unsprung mass calculated using the vehicle wheel-off-the-ground model with the preset acceleration deviation range. When it is less than the preset acceleration deviation range, it indicates that the wheel conforms to the characteristics of being off the ground, and it is determined that the wheel is not in contact with the ground.
[0147] In this embodiment, when the wheel is not in contact with the ground, that is, when it is disengaged, the motion equation of the unsprung mass and the ground contact identification calculation method are derived as follows.
[0148] When the vehicle travels over a pothole or a raised step on the road surface, the wheel (or the unsprung mass) is lifted or stretched downward, and the wheel is disengaged from the ground. Then, both the elastic force and the damping force between the wheel and the ground are 0. Therefore, based on the physical model shown in Figure 10 Extract features to identify and determine whether the wheel is disengaged from the ground. Figure 10 In, F d Is the external transient impact force received by the suspension.
[0149] When the wheel is disengaged from the ground, the unsprung mass is only subject to the suspension spring force, gravity, and damping force. The differential motion equation is as follows.
[0150]
[0151] From Equation (10), we can obtain
[0152]
[0153] Among them, Is the theoretical unsprung acceleration of the unsprung mass when the wheel is disengaged from the ground. m t g represents the gravity of a single unsprung mass of the suspension under the no-load and ready-to-drive state. -K s (Z t -Z b ) represents the equivalent acting force of all elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end relative to the no-load and ready-to-drive state. -C d (Z t -Z b ) represents the equivalent acting force of the real-time damping force at the wheel end. m tis the unsprung mass.
[0154] Equation (11) theoretically proves the composition of the forces acting on the unsprung mass when the wheel is detached from the ground. Further, referring to Equation (9) and considering a more accurate and simplified calculation implementation method in engineering, in a specific implementation, the following formula is used to calculate the theoretical acceleration of the unsprung mass when the wheel is detached from the ground:
[0155]
[0156] In Equation (12), ΔF Ks represents the equivalent load change of all elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end relative to the unloaded curb state, and ΔF Cd represents the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber damping force at the wheel end, and m t g represents the gravity acting on the unsprung mass of a single suspension.
[0157] In a specific implementation, there are multiple ways or approaches to obtain ΔF Ks . The following two optional methods are described in this embodiment: The first optional method is to first calculate the equivalent total stiffness of all elastic components of the corresponding suspension at the wheel end according to the stiffness of each elastic component, the leverage ratio of each elastic component relative to the wheel end, and the equivalent stiffness of the suspension bushing at the wheel end; calculate the equivalent load change of all elastic components of the corresponding suspension at the wheel end relative to the unloaded curb state in real time according to the equivalent total stiffness of all elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end and the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle; The second optional method is that the equivalent load change of all the above-mentioned elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end relative to the unloaded curb state can also be obtained through the suspension K&C characteristic simulation calculation or the measured suspension load-displacement curve data, as shown in the curve data Figure 11 . This data represents the equivalent load change of all elastic components at the wheel end corresponding to the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle (representing different wheel end strokes of the wheel end relative to the unloaded curb state). The equivalent load change of all elastic components of the suspension at the wheel end relative to the unloaded curb state at the corresponding moment can be directly obtained through the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle (Z b -Z t );
[0158] In a specific implementation, ΔF CdIt can be obtained in the following manner: perform differential calculation based on the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle to obtain the relative motion speed of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle; calculate the relative motion speed during the actuation of the shock absorber based on the relative motion speed of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle and the lever ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel; look up the F-V database of the shock absorber damping force - relative motion speed during the actuation of the shock absorber according to the relative motion speed during the actuation of the shock absorber to obtain the real-time damping force of the shock absorber; calculate the equivalent dynamic action load of the shock absorber damping force at the wheel end based on the real-time damping force of the shock absorber and the lever ratio of the shock absorber relative to the wheel.
[0159] In a specific implementation, after obtaining the measured unsprung mass acceleration and the theoretical unsprung mass acceleration when the wheel leaves the ground, calculate the acceleration difference between the measured unsprung mass acceleration and the theoretical unsprung mass acceleration, and then compare this acceleration difference with a preset deviation range. If the acceleration difference is within the preset deviation range, it is determined that the wheel leaves the ground. For example, the following formula can be used to calculate and judge whether the wheel leaves the ground:
[0160]
[0161] where is the theoretical unsprung mass acceleration when the wheel leaves the ground calculated by formula (13), a t is the measured unsprung mass acceleration, a tol is the preset acceleration deviation range, which can be set to 0 or other values according to the actual situation, and this is not limited in this embodiment.
[0162] Further, in the second method of this embodiment, it is determined whether the wheel is grounded by calculating and identifying whether the wheel of the target vehicle is compressed to the upper limit position of the suspension stroke and is in a state of leaving the ground and hanging in the air.
[0163] Specifically, obtain the upper limit value of the upward jump stroke of the suspension of the target vehicle relative to the unloaded curb weight state from the vehicle parameters; read the measured dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle from the vehicle signals; calculate the displacement difference between the measured dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle and the upper limit value of the upward jump stroke of the suspension of the target vehicle relative to the unloaded curb weight state;
[0164] Differentiate the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle to obtain the relative motion speed between the sprung masses of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle.
[0165] Based on the load-displacement characteristic data of the suspension, determine the maximum elastic force of the suspension corresponding to when the suspension is compressed to the upper limit value of the wheel bounce stroke relative to the unloaded curb state, and the gravity borne by the unsprung mass of the suspension, and calculate the unsprung acceleration corresponding to when the suspension is compressed to the upper limit value of the bounce stroke; obtain the measured acceleration value of the unsprung mass from the vehicle signals; calculate the acceleration difference between the calculated value of the unsprung acceleration corresponding to when the suspension is compressed to the upper limit value of the bounce stroke and the measured acceleration of the unsprung mass.
[0166] When the displacement difference between the measured dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle and the upper limit value of the bounce stroke of the target vehicle suspension relative to the unloaded curb state is less than or equal to the first preset displacement range, the interleaf movement speed is less than or equal to the first preset speed range value, and the acceleration difference between the calculated value of the unsprung acceleration corresponding to when the suspension is compressed to the upper limit value of the bounce stroke and the measured acceleration of the unsprung mass at the corresponding moment is less than or equal to the first preset acceleration difference range, it is determined that the wheel of the target vehicle is compressed to the limit position of the suspension stroke and the wheel is in a non-grounded state.
[0167] Specifically, the following calculation and identification method can be adopted to calculate and judge whether the wheel is grounded in the second method.

[0169]
[0170] |(a t -a u )|≤Δa up (16)
[0171] In the above formulas (14) to (16), (Z t -Z b ) represents the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle, L up is the upper limit value of the wheel bounce stroke relative to the unloaded curb state, ΔL tol_up is the first preset stroke deviation threshold; is the relative interleaf movement speed of the wheel relative to the body, ΔV tol_up is the first preset speed deviation threshold; (a t -a u ) is the acceleration difference, Δa up is the first preset difference threshold, a t is the measured acceleration of the unsprung mass, a u is the calculated value of the unsprung acceleration, and the calculation of a u is shown in the following formula:
[0172] a u =(F s_up +m t ·g) / m t (17)

[0174] Further, in the third method of this embodiment, it is determined whether the wheel of the target vehicle is grounded by calculating and identifying whether the wheel of the target vehicle is stretched to the lower limit position of the suspension stroke and is in a state of being off the ground and suspended.
[0175] Specifically, obtain the lower limit value of the downward jump stroke of the target vehicle suspension relative to the unloaded curb weight state from the vehicle parameters; read the measured dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the vehicle body of the target vehicle from the vehicle signals; calculate the displacement difference between the measured dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the vehicle body of the target vehicle and the lower limit value of the downward jump stroke of the target vehicle suspension relative to the unloaded curb weight state;
[0176] Differentiate the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the vehicle body of the target vehicle to obtain the relative motion speed between the sprung masses of the wheel relative to the vehicle body of the target vehicle;
[0177] Based on the load-displacement characteristic data of the suspension, determine the maximum elastic force of the suspension corresponding to when the suspension is stretched to the lower limit value of the wheel downward jump stroke relative to the unloaded curb weight state, and the gravity received by the unsprung mass of the suspension, and calculate the unsprung acceleration corresponding to when the suspension is stretched to the lower limit value of the downward jump stroke; obtain the measured acceleration value of the unsprung mass from the vehicle signals; calculate the acceleration difference between the calculated value of the unsprung acceleration corresponding to when the suspension is stretched to the lower limit value of the downward jump stroke and the measured acceleration of the unsprung mass;
[0178] When the displacement difference between the measured dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the vehicle body of the target vehicle and the lower limit value of the downward jump stroke of the target vehicle suspension relative to the unloaded curb weight state is less than or equal to the second preset displacement range, the relative motion speed between the sprung masses is less than or equal to the second preset speed range, and the acceleration difference between the calculated value of the unsprung acceleration corresponding to when the suspension is stretched to the lower limit value of the downward jump stroke and the measured acceleration of the unsprung mass at the corresponding moment is less than or equal to the second preset acceleration difference range, it is determined that the wheel of the target vehicle is stretched to the limit position of the suspension stroke and the wheel is in a non-grounded state.
[0179] Specifically, the following calculation and identification method can be adopted to calculate and judge whether the wheel is grounded in the third method.
[0180] |(Z t -Z b )-L d |≤ΔL tol_d (18)
[0181]
[0182] |(a t -a d )|≤Δa d (20)
[0183] In the above formulas (18) to (20), the dynamic displacement of the wheel relative to the body of the target vehicle is (Z t -Z b ), L d is the lower limit value of the wheel jounce travel in the unloaded and ready state, ΔL tol_d is the second preset travel deviation threshold; is the relative motion speed between the wheel and the body, ΔV tol_d is the second preset speed threshold; (a t -a d ) is the acceleration difference, Δa d is the second preset acceleration difference threshold, a t is the measured acceleration of the unsprung mass, a d is the unsprung acceleration value, and the calculation is as follows;

[0186] In this embodiment, the grounding of the vehicle wheels is calculated and identified through the above three methods, including: the acceleration difference between the measured unsprung mass acceleration of the target vehicle and the theoretical unsprung mass acceleration calculated using the vehicle wheel grounding identification model is within the preset deviation range; the wheels of the target vehicle are compressed to the upper limit position of the suspension stroke and are in a suspended state off the ground; the wheels of the target vehicle are stretched to the lower limit position of the suspension stroke and are in a suspended state off the ground. The vehicle driving process includes two situations: wheel grounding and non-grounding. By calculating and identifying the vehicle grounding through the above methods, a reliable real-time detection and calculation scheme for vehicle grounding is provided; moreover, by performing vehicle grounding identification calculation before detecting and calculating the transient vertical load of the vehicle tire, the accuracy and reliability of the results can be improved.
