[0048] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for the purpose of explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for synchronously adjusting the height of a four-wheeled vehicle, comprising the following steps:
[0050] Step 1: Calculate the difference between the steady-state target height of the four-wheel suspension and its instantaneous target height at the previous moment.
[0051]
[0052] Among them: H fl ——Standard target height of left front wheel suspension; H fr ——right front wheel suspension steady-state target height; H rl ——Standard target height of left rear wheel suspension; H rr —— Steady-state target height of the right rear wheel suspension; H(k-1) fl ——The instantaneous target height of the left front wheel suspension at the previous moment; H(k-1) fr ——The instantaneous target height of the right front wheel suspension at the previous moment; H(k-1) rl ——The instantaneous target height of the left rear wheel suspension at the previous moment; H(k-1) rr ——The instantaneous target height of the right rear wheel suspension at the previous moment; ΔH(k) fl ——The difference between the steady-state target height of the left front suspension and its instantaneous target height at the previous moment; ΔH(k) fr ——The difference between the steady-state target height of the right front suspension and its instantaneous target height at the previous moment; ΔH(k) rl ——The difference between the steady-state target height of the left rear suspension and its instantaneous target height at the previous moment; ΔH(k) rr ——The difference between the steady-state target height of the right rear suspension and its instantaneous target height at the previous moment; k——the current moment, and k-1 is the previous moment.
[0053] Furthermore, we know that: ΔH(k) fl =0, it means that the steady-state target height of the left front suspension is the same as its instantaneous target height at the previous moment, and no lifting adjustment is required; ΔH(k) fl>0, it means that the steady-state target height of the left front suspension is greater than its instantaneous target height at the previous moment, and the suspension should be raised; ΔH(k) fl <0, it means that the steady-state target height of the left front suspension is less than its instantaneous target height at the previous moment, and the suspension should be lowered; ΔH(k) fr , ΔH(k) rl , ΔH(k) rr The meaning of the representation is the same as the physical meaning.
[0054] Step 2: Calculate in real time the absolute sum of the differences between the steady-state target height of the four-wheel suspension and its instantaneous target height at the previous moment to represent the total change in the four-wheel suspension height.
[0055] ΔH(k)=|ΔH(k) fl |+|ΔH(k) fr |+|ΔH(k) rl |+|ΔH(k) rr |
[0056] Where: ΔH(k) – total change in suspension height;
[0057] Step 3: Calculate the proportion of the four-wheel suspension height change to the total suspension height change. This proportion is equal to the absolute value of the difference between the four-wheel suspension steady-state target height and its previous instantaneous target height divided by the total suspension height change.
[0058]
[0059] Where: τ(k) fl ——The proportion of the left front suspension height change in the total vehicle suspension height change; τ(k) fr ——Right front suspension height change as a percentage of the total vehicle suspension height change; τ(k) rl ——The proportion of the left rear suspension height change in the total vehicle suspension height change; τ(k) rr ——The proportion of the right rear suspension height change in the total vehicle suspension height change.
[0060] Step 4: Calculate the minimum value of the variable height allowed by the four-wheel suspension in unit time. This minimum value represents the ability of the four-wheel suspension to work simultaneously in unit time.
[0061] ΔH min =min(ΔH flmax , ΔH frmax , ΔH rlmax , ΔH rrmax )
[0062] Where: ΔH min ——The minimum value of the variable height allowed by the four-wheel suspension per unit time; ΔHflmax ——The allowed variable height of the left front suspension per unit time; ΔH frmax ——The right front suspension allows variable height per unit time; ΔH rlmax ——The variable height allowed for the left rear suspension per unit time; ΔH rrmax ——The right rear suspension allows variable height per unit time; ΔH flmax , ΔH frmax , ΔH rlmax , ΔH rrmax It is a characteristic parameter of each suspension, representing the working capacity of the left front suspension, right front suspension, left rear suspension, and right rear suspension per unit time. If the height change of the suspension per unit time exceeds this value, the suspension may be damaged or its durability life may be reduced.
[0063] Step 5: The ratio of the variable height allowed by the four-wheel suspension per unit time to the minimum value of the variable height allowed by the four-wheel suspension per unit time.
[0064]
[0065] Where: τ flmax ——The ratio of the variable height of the left front suspension per unit time to the minimum variable height of the four-wheel suspension per unit time; τ frmax ——The ratio of the right front suspension's variable height per unit time to the minimum value of the four-wheel suspension's variable height per unit time; τ rlmax ——The ratio of the variable height of the left rear suspension allowed per unit time to the minimum variable height of the four-wheel suspension allowed per unit time; τ rrmax ——The ratio of the variable height allowed by the right rear suspension per unit time to the minimum variable height allowed by the four-wheel suspension per unit time.
[0066] Furthermore, we know that: ΔH flmax , ΔH frmax , ΔH rlmax , ΔH rrmax
[0067]
[0068] Step 6: Calculate the ratio of the proportion of the four-wheel suspension height change in the total suspension height change to the ratio of the allowable variable height of each suspension per unit time to the minimum value of the four-wheel suspension allowable variable height per unit time.
[0069]
[0070] Where: α(k) fl—Ratio of the proportion of the left front suspension height change in the total suspension height change to the ratio of the allowable variable height of each suspension per unit time to the minimum value of the allowable variable height of the four-wheel suspension per unit time; α(k) fr -Ratio of the right front suspension height change to the total suspension height change to the ratio of the allowable variable height of each suspension per unit time to the minimum allowable variable height of the four-wheel suspension per unit time; α(k) rl -The ratio of the left rear suspension height change to the total suspension height change and the ratio of the allowable variable height of each suspension per unit time to the minimum allowable variable height of the four-wheel suspension per unit time; α(k) rr -The ratio of the right rear suspension height change to the total suspension height change and the ratio of the allowable variable height of each suspension per unit time to the minimum allowable variable height of the four-wheel suspension per unit time.
[0071] Furthermore, we can know that:
[0072]
[0073] Step 7: Calculate the maximum value of the ratio of the four-wheel suspension height change to the total suspension height change of the entire vehicle and the ratio of the allowable variable height of each suspension per unit time to the minimum value of the four-wheel suspension allowable variable height per unit time.
[0074] α(k) max =max(α(k) fl ,α(k) fr ,α(k) rl ,α(k) rr )
[0075] Where: α(k) max ——The maximum value of the ratio of the proportion of each suspension height change in the total suspension height change of the suspension vehicle and the ratio of the allowable variable height of each suspension per unit time to the minimum value of the allowable variable height of the four-wheel suspension per unit time.
[0076] Furthermore, we can know that:
[0077]
[0078] Step 8: Calculate the height change adjustment proportional coefficient of the four-wheel suspension based on the maximum value of the ratio of the proportion of the four-wheel suspension height change in the total suspension height change, the proportion of each suspension height change in the total suspension height change, and the ratio of the allowable variable height of each suspension per unit time to the minimum value of the allowable variable height of the four-wheel suspension per unit time.
[0079]
[0080] Where: τ1(k) fl ——Left front suspension height change execution adjustment proportional coefficient; τ1(k) fr ——Right front suspension height change execution adjustment proportional coefficient; τ1(k) rl ——Left rear suspension height change execution adjustment proportional coefficient; τ1(k) rr ——Right rear suspension height change execution adjustment proportional coefficient.
[0081] Furthermore, we know that: τ1(k) fl 、τ1(k) fr 、τ1(k) rl 、τ1(k) rr With τ flmax , τ frmax , τ rlmax , τ rrmax The relative size relationship:
[0082]
[0083] is equivalent to:
[0084]
[0085] Step 9: Calculate the amount of change of each suspension height per unit time based on the adjustment proportional coefficient of each suspension height change and the minimum value of the suspension variable height allowed by the four-wheel suspension per unit time.
[0086]
[0087] Where: ΔH1(k) fl ——The change in suspension height per unit time of the left front suspension; ΔH1(k) fr ——The change in suspension height per unit time of the right front suspension; ΔH1(k) rl ——The change in suspension height per unit time of the left rear suspension; ΔH1(k) rr ——The change in suspension height of the right rear suspension per unit time.
[0088] Furthermore, we can know that:
[0089]
[0090] is equivalent to:
[0091]
[0092] It can be seen that the change in the height of each suspension per unit time will never be greater than the allowable variable height of each suspension per unit time, which avoids damage to the suspension due to over-capacity operation and improves the durability and working life of the suspension.
[0093] Step 10: Calculate the current instantaneous target height of each suspension in real time based on the previous instantaneous target height of each suspension and the change in each suspension height per unit time. The current instantaneous target height of each suspension is equal to the product of the previous instantaneous target height of each suspension plus or minus the change in each suspension height per unit time and the time interval of the task.
[0094]
[0095] Where: H(k) fl ——The instantaneous target height of the left front suspension at the current moment; H(k) fr ——The instantaneous target height of the right front suspension at the current moment;
[0096] H(k) rl ——The instantaneous target height of the left rear suspension at the current moment; H(k) rr ——The instantaneous target height of the right rear suspension at the current moment; Δt——The time interval of the task.
[0097] Furthermore, steps 1 to 9 are continuously cycled, and at the end of each single cycle, the instantaneous target height of each suspension at the previous moment is updated. The updating method is that the instantaneous target height of the suspension at the previous moment is equal to the instantaneous target height of the suspension at the current moment, that is:
[0098]
[0099] Furthermore, after multiple cycles of steps 1 to 9, the instantaneous target height of each suspension at the current moment is equal to the steady-state target height, that is:
[0100]
[0101] Furthermore, it can be seen that the height change of each suspension height to the steady-state target height is ΔH(k) fl , ΔH(k) fr , ΔH(k) rl , ΔH(k) rr , and at the same time combine the change in each suspension height per unit time ΔH1(k) fl , ΔH1(k) fr , ΔH1(k) rl , ΔH1(k) rr , we can know that the time for change adjustment is calculated as the height change divided by the change in each suspension height per unit time, that is:
[0102]
[0103] Where: Δt fl ——The time for the left front suspension to change and adjust; Δtfr ——The time for the right front suspension to change and adjust; Δt rl ——The time for the left rear suspension to change and adjust; Δt rr ——The time for adjusting the right rear suspension changes.
[0104] Furthermore, we can know that:
[0105]
[0106] Furthermore, we can know that:
[0107]
[0108] Furthermore, we can know that:
[0109]
[0110] Furthermore, we can know that:
[0111]
[0112] Furthermore, we can know that: Δt fl =Δt fr =Δt rl =Δt rr This shows that the four-wheel suspension takes the same amount of time to dynamically adjust to the steady-state target height, meaning they reach the steady-state target height simultaneously, ensuring smooth adjustments to the vehicle's posture.
