[0048] This invention provides a braking control method, referring to... Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the first embodiment of the braking control method of the present invention.
[0049] In this embodiment, the braking control method includes the following steps:
[0050] Step S10: Determine the corresponding ideal braking force distribution curve based on the current vehicle mass.
[0051] It should be noted that the executing entity in this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication, and program execution functions, such as a brake control unit, vehicle control unit, tablet computer, personal computer, mobile phone, etc., or an electronic device or brake control device capable of performing the above functions. The following description uses a brake control unit as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the subsequent embodiments.
[0052] In this embodiment, the braking control unit determines the corresponding ideal braking force distribution curve based on the current vehicle mass, determines the wheel braking force of each wheel according to the braking intensity request information and the current vehicle mass, and distributes the wheel braking force to the corresponding bridge control module according to the ideal braking force distribution curve. The bridge control module controls the corresponding EMB module to generate braking force at the wheel side to brake the vehicle according to the received wheel braking force.
[0053] It is understood that the current vehicle mass can be the vehicle mass calculated based on vehicle parameters or the vehicle mass pre-input, which can be set according to the specific scenario. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions here. The ideal braking force distribution curve can be the ideal distribution curve between the front axle braking force and the rear axle braking force when the vehicle is braking. The vehicle mass corresponds to the ideal braking force distribution curve, and different vehicle masses have different ideal braking force distribution curves.
[0054] Step S20: Determine the wheel braking force of each wheel based on the braking intensity request information and the current vehicle mass.
[0055] It is understandable that the braking intensity request information can be the intensity information of the driver's request for vehicle braking, determined based on the current opening degree of the brake pedal and the rate of change of opening degree; based on the braking intensity request information and the current vehicle mass, the front axle braking force and rear axle braking force of the vehicle can be determined, the front wheel braking force can be determined based on the front axle braking force, and the rear wheel braking force can be determined based on the rear axle braking force.
[0056] Step S30: Distribute the wheel braking force to the corresponding bridge control module according to the ideal braking force distribution curve. The bridge control module is used to control the corresponding EMB module to generate braking force to brake the vehicle according to the distributed wheel braking force.
[0057] In this embodiment, the brake control unit distributes the wheel braking force to the front axle control module and the rear axle control module according to the ideal braking force distribution curve that matches the current vehicle mass. The front axle control module controls the EMB module of the front axle of the vehicle to generate braking force on the front wheel side according to the received wheel braking force, and the rear axle control module controls the EMB module of the rear axle of the vehicle to generate braking force on the rear wheel side according to the received wheel braking force.
[0058] In practical implementation, the brake control unit determines the current vehicle mass based on vehicle parameters, and based on the current vehicle mass, determines the corresponding ideal braking force distribution curve according to the ideal braking force distribution function. It determines the braking intensity request information based on the obtained brake pedal opening information. Based on the braking intensity request information and the current vehicle mass, the front wheel braking force and rear wheel braking force can be calculated. The front wheel braking force is distributed to the front axle control module and the rear wheel braking force is distributed to the rear axle control module according to the ideal braking force distribution curve represented by Formula 1. The front axle control module controls the EMB module of the vehicle's front axle to generate braking force on the front wheel side based on the received wheel braking force. The rear axle control module controls the EMB module of the vehicle's rear axle to generate braking force on the rear wheel side based on the received wheel braking force. The ideal braking force distribution function can be represented by Formula 1.
[0059] (Formula 1)
[0060] In the formula, For front wheel braking force; The force is the braking force on the rear wheels; m is the current mass of the vehicle; g is the acceleration due to gravity. ρ is the center of gravity height; b is the distance from the vehicle's geometric center to the rear axle; L is the front and rear track width.
[0061] Furthermore, in order to shorten the braking distance and improve the braking safety of the vehicle, step S20 includes: acquiring the geometric parameters of the vehicle; and determining the wheel braking force of each wheel based on the geometric parameters, the braking intensity request information, and the current vehicle mass.
[0062] Understandably, a vehicle's geometric parameters include the distance from the vehicle's geometric center to the front axle, the distance from the vehicle's geometric center to the rear axle, the front and rear track width, and the center of gravity height; wheel braking forces include front wheel braking forces and rear wheel braking forces; front wheel braking forces include left front wheel braking forces and right front wheel braking forces, and rear wheel braking forces include left rear wheel braking forces and right rear wheel braking forces.
[0063] In practice, the brake control unit obtains the distance from the vehicle's geometric center to the front axle, the distance from the vehicle's geometric center to the rear axle, the front and rear track width, and the center of gravity height. Based on the above geometric parameters, the current vehicle mass, and the braking intensity request information, it determines the front and rear wheel braking forces of the vehicle.
[0064] Furthermore, in order to determine the front wheel braking force and rear wheel braking force of the vehicle, the wheel braking force includes the front wheel braking force and the rear wheel braking force. The step of determining the wheel braking force of each wheel based on the geometric parameters, the braking intensity request information, and the current vehicle mass includes: determining the front wheel normal reaction force and the rear wheel normal reaction force when the vehicle brakes based on the geometric parameters, the current vehicle mass, and the braking intensity request information; determining the front wheel braking force of the vehicle based on the front wheel normal reaction force; and determining the rear wheel braking force of the vehicle based on the rear wheel normal reaction force.
[0065] In some implementations, the brake control unit determines the front wheel normal reaction force during braking using a second preset formula, and the rear wheel normal reaction force using a third preset formula, based on the vehicle's geometric parameters, current vehicle mass, and braking intensity request information. Based on the front wheel normal reaction force and the synchronous adhesion coefficient, it determines the front wheel braking force using a fourth preset formula, and the rear wheel braking force using a fifth preset formula, based on the rear wheel normal reaction force and the synchronous adhesion coefficient. The second preset formula can be represented by Formula 2, the third preset formula by Formula 3, the fourth preset formula by Formula 4, and the fifth preset formula by Formula 5.
[0066] (Formula 2)
[0067] (Formula 3)
[0068] (Formula 4)
[0069] (Formula 5)
[0070] In the above formula, This is the normal reaction force of the front wheel; ρ is the normal reaction force of the rear wheel; m is the current mass of the vehicle; g is the acceleration due to gravity; b is the distance from the geometric center of the vehicle to the front axle; L is the track width between the front and rear wheels. is the center of gravity height; z is the braking intensity request information; a is the distance from the vehicle's geometric center to the rear axle. For front wheel braking force; For rear wheel braking force; This is the synchronous adhesion coefficient.
[0071] This embodiment determines the corresponding ideal braking force distribution curve based on the current vehicle mass; determines the wheel braking force of each wheel according to the braking intensity request information and the current vehicle mass; and distributes the wheel braking force to the corresponding bridge control module according to the ideal braking force distribution curve. The bridge control module is used to control the corresponding EMB module to generate braking force for vehicle braking according to the allocated wheel braking force. When braking, this invention matches the ideal braking force distribution curve based on the current vehicle mass and determines the wheel braking force of each wheel according to the braking intensity request information and the ideal braking force distribution curve. It can adjust the wheel braking force according to the current vehicle mass, so that the braking force of the front and rear wheels of the vehicle is in the optimal state, shortening the braking distance and improving vehicle braking stability.
[0072] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the second embodiment of the braking control method of the present invention.
[0073] Based on the first embodiment described above, in this embodiment, before step S10, the method further includes:
[0074] Step S01: Upon receiving the vehicle quality identification signal, acquire the vehicle parameters.
[0075] In this embodiment, when the braking control unit receives the vehicle mass identification signal, it acquires the vehicle's driving torque, transmission efficiency, main drive ratio, transmission ratio, wheel radius, rolling resistance coefficient, wind resistance coefficient, frontal area, vehicle speed, and mass increase coefficient. The acquired parameters are then substituted into the vehicle's longitudinal dynamics equation to obtain the current vehicle mass.
[0076] It is understood that the vehicle quality identification signal can be a signal that triggers the brake control unit to perform vehicle quality assessment. The vehicle quality identification signal can be generated by the driver when the vehicle is traveling on a flat road, or it can be generated by the vehicle controller when it obtains the vehicle's driving conditions and determines that the vehicle is traveling on a flat road, or it can be triggered by other similar means. This embodiment does not impose any limitations on this.
[0077] Step S02: Determine the current vehicle mass based on the vehicle parameters using the vehicle longitudinal dynamics equation.
[0078] In practical implementation, for example, when the vehicle travels on a flat road, the driver triggers the generation of a vehicle mass identification signal. Upon receiving the vehicle mass identification signal, the brake control unit obtains the following vehicle parameters: drive torque, transmission efficiency, main drive ratio, transmission ratio, wheel radius, rolling resistance coefficient, drag coefficient, frontal area, vehicle speed, and mass increase coefficient. Based on the above parameters, the current vehicle mass is calculated using the vehicle longitudinal dynamics equation, which can be represented by Formula 6:
[0079] (Formula 6)
[0080] In the formula, For driving torque; For transmission efficiency; Main transmission ratio; This refers to the gear ratio of the transmission. The radius of the wheel; For the current vehicle quality; Where is the acceleration due to gravity; f is the rolling resistance coefficient; A is the drag coefficient; A is the frontal area; v is the vehicle speed. The mass increase factor is used; the driving torque, vehicle speed and transmission ratio in Formula 6 can be obtained through the bus, and the rest except for the current vehicle mass are known parameters. Therefore, the current vehicle mass can be calculated by Formula 6. When calculating the current vehicle mass, n vehicle masses can be calculated according to Formula 6. Vehicle masses that are greater than the preset maximum vehicle mass and less than the preset minimum vehicle mass are removed from the n vehicle masses, and the average mass of the remaining vehicle masses is calculated. This average mass is used as the current vehicle mass.
[0081] Furthermore, if a separate trigger switch is set up when the driver needs to trigger vehicle quality identification, it will increase the hardware cost. In order to enable the driver to trigger vehicle quality assessment without increasing the hardware cost, before step S01, the method further includes: detecting the switch signal output by the quality measurement switch set on the vehicle; and determining that the switch signal is a vehicle quality identification signal when the duration of the switch signal is greater than a preset duration.
[0082] Understandably, the quality measurement switch can be a switch capable of outputting a vehicle quality identification signal. To reduce costs, the quality measurement switch can be reused with other switches. The duration of the switch signal output by the quality measurement switch is calibrated to determine whether the switch signal is a regular vehicle signal or a vehicle quality identification signal. When the duration of the switch signal output by the quality measurement switch is greater than a preset duration, the switch signal is determined to be a vehicle quality identification signal. When the duration of the switch signal is less than the preset duration and the duration is within a preset range, the switch signal is determined to be a regular vehicle signal.
[0083] In some implementations, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 This diagram illustrates the switching signal output by the mass measurement switch. The mass measurement switch identifies different signals through short triggering (i.e., the duration of the switching signal is between A and B) and long triggering (i.e., the duration of the switching signal is greater than AC). Short triggering is defined as a regular vehicle signal, and long triggering is defined as a vehicle mass identification signal. When the vehicle is traveling on a flat road, the driver operates the mass measurement switch. When the duration of the switching signal output by the mass measurement switch is greater than AC, the received switching signal is determined to be a vehicle mass identification signal. The brake control unit calculates the current vehicle mass based on the vehicle parameters and the vehicle's longitudinal dynamics equation.
[0084] In this embodiment, upon receiving a vehicle mass identification signal, vehicle parameters are acquired; based on the vehicle parameters, the current vehicle mass is determined using the vehicle longitudinal dynamics equation.
[0085] refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating the third embodiment of the braking control method of the present invention.
[0086] Based on the above embodiments, in this embodiment, before step S20, the method further includes:
[0087] Step S03: Obtain the current opening degree of the brake pedal and the rate of change of the opening degree of the brake pedal.
[0088] Understandably, the brake pedal integrates a pedal position sensor, which can be used to obtain the current opening degree of the brake pedal and the rate of change of the brake pedal opening degree.
[0089] Step S04: Determine the braking intensity request information based on the current opening degree and the opening degree change rate.
[0090] In this embodiment, the brake control unit calculates the brake intensity request information based on the current opening degree and the rate of change of the brake pedal using a preset brake intensity formula.
[0091] In practical implementation, in order to accurately reflect the driver's braking intention, the braking intensity request information is calculated based on the current opening degree of the brake pedal and the rate of change of opening degree through a preset braking intensity formula. The preset braking intensity formula can be represented by Formula 7:
[0092] (Formula 7)
[0093] In the formula, Z represents the braking intensity, and the maximum value of the braking intensity is 1. This represents the current opening of the brake pedal; the maximum opening of the brake pedal is 100%. The weighted value of the opening change rate. .
[0094] Furthermore, in order to improve the braking safety of the vehicle, step S30 includes: distributing the wheel braking force to the front axle control module and the rear axle control module according to the ideal braking force distribution curve.
[0095] In practical implementation, the braking control method proposed in this embodiment can be applied to the EMB braking system. A structural schematic diagram of the EMB braking system can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 6 The EMB braking system includes a brake pedal, a front axle control module, a rear axle control module, four EMB modules, four wheel speed sensors, four friction pad position sensors, a brake control unit, a vehicle control unit, a mass measurement switch, and a power supply. The brake pedal integrates a pedal position sensor, which acquires the pedal opening degree and its rate of change. Based on these parameters, the system determines the braking intensity request. When the vehicle is on a flat road, the driver can send a vehicle mass identification signal to the brake control unit via the mass measurement switch. The brake control unit calculates the current vehicle mass based on vehicle parameters and the vehicle's longitudinal dynamics equations. A schematic diagram of the ideal braking force distribution curve can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 7 The brake control unit generates the corresponding ideal braking force distribution curve based on the current vehicle mass using formula (1). Assuming the current vehicle mass is 6, the generated ideal braking force distribution curve is: Figure 7 The uppermost curve shows the braking force of the front and rear wheels calculated by the brake control unit based on the braking intensity request information, the current vehicle mass, and the synchronous adhesion coefficient. The corresponding point for the front and rear wheel braking forces is E(x3, y3). The brake control unit distributes the front wheel braking force to the front axle control module according to the ideal braking force distribution curve, and distributes the rear wheel braking force to the rear axle control module according to the ideal braking force distribution curve. The front and rear axle control modules control the corresponding EMB modules to generate corresponding braking forces at the wheel sides according to the received braking forces, thereby controlling the vehicle's braking and deceleration. The friction pad position sensor is used to identify the wear condition of each wheel friction pad to ensure that each wheel friction pad is in the optimal position when the braking force is released. The wheel speed sensor is used to identify vehicle speed and acceleration, as well as vehicle deceleration and ABS control.
[0096] This embodiment acquires the current opening degree of the brake pedal and the rate of change of the brake pedal opening degree; it then determines braking intensity request information based on the current opening degree and the rate of change of the opening degree. This embodiment determines the braking intensity request information based on the current opening degree of the brake pedal and the rate of change of the opening degree, which can more accurately reflect the driver's braking intention and improve the stability of vehicle braking.
[0097] Furthermore, embodiments of the present invention also propose a storage medium storing a braking control program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the braking control method described above.
