Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of vehicle acceleration lateral vibration control technology, specifically relating to a method for evaluating the maximum lateral vibration during vehicle acceleration. Background Technology
[0002] To achieve constant angular velocity rotation of the left and right wheels when the angle between the gearbox output shaft and the wheel input shaft (drive shaft angle) is not zero, the three-pin constant velocity universal joint drive shaft assembly is widely used in many front-wheel drive vehicles. In the three-pin joint drive shaft, the three-column groove housing rotates once, and the ball ring slides in and out of the groove track, completing one cycle of motion. During the ball ring's sliding process, sliding friction and rolling friction exist, and the axial derived force is equal to the sum of the sliding friction and rolling friction. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the axial force derived from the drive shaft is the root cause of lateral vibration of the vehicle body. Furthermore, the lateral vibration of the entire vehicle is inconsistent with the direction of vehicle travel, which is an unstable operating condition and is very likely to generate user complaints about safety.
[0003] For the same vehicle model, the acceleration lateral vibration measurement results for different vehicles are shown below. Figure 2 .from Figure 2 It can be seen that there are significant fluctuations in lateral vibration among different vehicles. Sometimes, the lateral vibration of the entire vehicle is too large and unacceptable during acceleration; at other times, the lateral vibration is relatively small and acceptable. This uncertainty in vehicle acceleration vibration fluctuations poses a significant challenge to vehicle design. Therefore, determining a method for evaluating the maximum lateral vibration during vehicle acceleration is crucial for controlling and optimizing vehicle lateral vibration.
[0004] Depend on Figure 1 It can be seen that the axial derived force of a single driveshaft is mainly related to the wheel torque, driveshaft pitch type, driveshaft angle, and phase difference between the left and right driveshafts. The model for the axial derived force of the entire vehicle driveshaft is shown below. Figure 3 Between different vehicles, the driveshaft pitch profile and wheel torque vary relatively little; the phase difference between the left and right driveshafts changes easily with vehicle steering; the driveshaft angle also changes with vehicle posture. Therefore, the key to evaluating the maximum lateral vibration during vehicle acceleration is to determine the maximum driveshaft angle and the phase difference between the left and right driveshafts. The larger the driveshaft angle, the greater the axial derived force; the smaller the phase difference between the left and right driveshafts, the greater the axial derived force. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this invention provides a method for evaluating the maximum lateral vibration during vehicle acceleration. It determines the maximum angle of the driveshaft of the tested vehicle by measuring the dispersion of vehicle postures between different vehicles, ensuring that the driveshaft angle of 99.7% of vehicles is less than the maximum angle. At the same time, by adjusting the phase difference between the left and right driveshafts, the axial derivative force of the driveshaft is maximized.
