[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second" and the like are generally of a kind and do not limit the number of objects, for example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the specification and claims means at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / ", generally means that the front and rear associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0035] To solve the above technical problems in the related art, the embodiments of the present application provide a control method applied to a gearbox of an electric vehicle, which can identify a bad road condition based on a speed signal output by a speed sensor of the gearbox itself through a control unit of the electric gearbox, and execute a shift inhibition strategy in the case of identifying a bad road condition, so as to ensure the hardware life of the gearbox and simultaneously reduce the failure rate of shift failure.

[0036] The control method applied to a gearbox of an electric vehicle provided by the embodiments of the present application has the following advantages: 1.

High timeliness, capable of quickly identifying a bad road condition without the need for statistical values of multiple sampling points.

[0037] The application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments and application scenarios thereof.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 The application provides a control method applied to an electric vehicle gearbox, which can include the following steps 101 to 103:

[0039] Step 101, obtaining an original speed signal output by a gearbox speed sensor, and generating speed fluctuation information by performing low-pass filtering processing on the original speed signal with different filtering coefficients.

[0040] The speed fluctuation information includes the speed fluctuation amount at each time point.

[0041] It should be noted that the control method applied to the electric vehicle gearbox in the application is executed by the control unit of the electric gearbox. That is, the electric gearbox capable of executing the control method applied to the electric vehicle gearbox in the application can realize the judgment of the bad road condition without relying on other systems and other sensors, and then execute the corresponding shift suppression strategy to protect the hardware of the gearbox.

[0042] Illustratively, the gearbox is an electric gearbox, which is different from the automated mechanical transmission (AMT) on the traditional fuel vehicle. The electric gearbox uses an electric control electric system to drive the shift actuator, which eliminates the complex energy supply device and pipeline system required by the pneumatic and hydraulic operating mechanism, has the characteristics of simple structure, low cost, strong adaptability to environment, small energy consumption, etc., and the electric gearbox has no sliding structure such as clutch and synchronizer, and the transmission system is rigidly connected, and the shift process is completely relied on the control of the shift motor and the driving motor.

[0043] Illustratively, the speed sensor is a speed sensor provided on the electric gearbox, which can feedback the speed value of the electric gearbox in real time.

[0044] Illustratively, after obtaining the original speed signal output by the speed sensor of the gearbox, the original speed signal can be processed to generate speed fluctuation information, and then the electric vehicle is judged whether it is in a bad road condition based on the speed fluctuation information.

[0045] Specifically, the specific steps of generating speed fluctuation information in step 101 can include the following steps 101a1 to 101a3:

[0046] Step 101a1, performing amplitude limiting filter processing on the original rotation speed signal to obtain an intermediate rotation speed signal.

[0047] Step 101a2, performing low-pass filter processing on the intermediate rotation speed signal according to a first filter coefficient to obtain a first rotation speed reference signal.

[0048] Step 101a3, performing low-pass filter processing on the first rotation speed reference signal according to a second filter coefficient to obtain a second rotation speed reference signal.

[0049] The second filter coefficient is less than the first filter coefficient.

[0050] It can be understood that the low-pass filter is a signal filtering method, which allows low-frequency signals to pass normally, while high-frequency signals exceeding the set threshold are blocked or weakened. However, the degree of blocking or weakening will change depending on different frequencies and different filter programs. It is also sometimes called high-cut filter or treble-cut filter. Generally, filter coefficients are used to adjust the proportion of low-pass filter or suppressed signals. The filter coefficient ranges from 0 to 1. The closer the filter coefficient is to 1, the weaker the filtering degree, and vice versa. The closer the filter coefficient is to 0, the stronger the filtering degree.

[0051] For example, the original rotation speed signal output by the rotation speed sensor is obviously disturbed by various disturbances, so it must be processed before use. The processing method includes: first, removing abnormal value jumps through an amplitude limiting filter, and then removing high-frequency burrs through a low-pass filter with a weak filtering degree (a larger filter coefficient, i.e. the first filter coefficient described above). After that, the processed rotation speed reference signal, i.e. the first rotation speed reference signal described above, can be obtained.

[0052] For example, the first rotation speed reference signal described above also needs to be filtered through a low-pass filter with a moderate filtering degree (i.e. the second filter coefficient described above) to filter out high-frequency fluctuations, and then a rotation speed reference signal with relatively stable fluctuations, i.e. the second rotation speed reference signal described above, is obtained.

[0053] However, due to the constant acceleration or constant deceleration stage of the vehicle, there is a nearly stable difference between the second rotation speed reference signal and the first rotation speed reference signal, and the size of the difference depends on the filtering strength. Therefore, after obtaining the first rotation speed reference signal and the second rotation speed reference signal, the difference needs to be calculated and recovered in the subsequent steps.

[0054] For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the original rotation speed signal is first processed through an amplitude limiting filter to obtain an intermediate rotation speed signal, and then the intermediate rotation speed signal is processed through a low-pass filter with a weak filtering degree (i.e. the first filter coefficient described above) to obtain a first rotation speed reference signal. Figure 2As shown in (A), there is a relatively stable difference between Spd_Fil_1 (i.e., the first rotational speed reference signal) and Spd_Fil_2 (i.e., the second rotational speed reference signal).

[0055] Specifically, after the step 101a3, the step 101 can further include the following steps 101b1 to 101b3:

[0056] In step 101b1, the first rotational speed reference signal is subtracted from the second rotational speed reference signal to obtain a first deviation signal, and low-pass filtering is performed on the first deviation signal according to a third filter coefficient to obtain a second deviation signal.

[0057] Exemplarily, the first deviation signal is used to indicate the difference between the first rotational speed reference signal and the second rotational speed reference signal. The third filter coefficient is smaller than the second filter coefficient.

[0058] In step 101b2, the second rotational speed reference signal is superimposed on the second deviation signal to obtain a third rotational speed reference signal, and the first rotational speed reference signal is subtracted from the third rotational speed reference signal to obtain a third deviation signal.

[0059] In step 101b3, the third deviation signal is processed according to a fourth filter coefficient to obtain the absolute value of the rotational speed fluctuation at each time point, and the rotational speed fluctuation information is generated based on the absolute value of the rotational speed fluctuation at each time point.

[0060] Exemplarily, the fourth filter coefficient is greater than the second filter coefficient, and the fourth filter coefficient can be the same as or different from the first filter coefficient.

[0061] Exemplarily, after obtaining the first deviation signal, low-pass filtering with a relatively strong filtering degree (i.e., the third filter coefficient) is required to obtain the second deviation signal. This calculation step is to calculate the deviation value between the first rotational speed reference signal and the second rotational speed reference signal due to the defects of the low-pass filter. The low-pass filtering with a relatively strong filtering degree is added here to ensure a constant deviation value and remove the fluctuation as much as possible.

[0062] Exemplarily, after obtaining the second deviation signal, the second rotational speed reference signal can be superimposed on the second deviation signal to compensate for the deviation value that is incorrectly filtered out during the constant acceleration and constant deceleration process, and then a stable value, i.e., the third rotational speed signal, is obtained.

[0063] For example, as shown in (A), the first rotational speed reference signal Spd_Fil_1 and the second rotational speed reference signal Spd_Fil_2 are subtracted to obtain a first deviation signal Spd_Fil_1-Spd_Fil_2. Figure 3As shown in (A), Spd_Fil_3 (i.e., the third speed signal mentioned above) and Spd_Fil_1 (i.e., the first speed signal mentioned above) only have a significant difference in the fluctuation phase (the time period contained in the vertical dashed line), and have almost no difference in the remaining working conditions.

[0064] Exemplarily, after obtaining the third speed signal mentioned above, the speed fluctuation information of the electric gearbox can be generated based on the third speed signal. Referring to Fig. 2, the speed fluctuation information of the electric gearbox is shown as Spd_BumpyVal. Figure 3 As shown in (B), Spd_BumpyVal is a curve for indicating the speed fluctuation value of the electric gearbox at each time.

[0065] Exemplarily, based on the speed fluctuation information of the electric gearbox, the current road working condition of the electric vehicle can be determined. Figure 2 As shown in (C), the current road working condition of the electric vehicle is shown as Spd_RoadCond. Figure 3 As shown in (C), the current road working condition of the electric vehicle is shown as Spd_RoadCond.

[0066] Firstly, the original speed signal Spd_Raw output by the speed sensor is obtained, and then first-order low-pass filtering (weak) and amplitude limiting filtering processing are performed on the Spd_Raw to output Spd_Fil_1, and first-order low-pass filtering (medium) processing is performed on the Spd_Fil_1 to output Spd_Fil_2. Then, Diff_1 (i.e., the first deviation signal mentioned above) is obtained by subtracting Spd_Fil_1 from Spd_Fil_2, and first-order low-pass filtering (strong) processing is performed on the Diff_1 to output Diff_Fil_1 (i.e., the second deviation signal mentioned above). Then, Spd_Fil_3 is obtained by superimposing Diff_Fil_1 and Spd_Fil_2, and Diff_2 (i.e., the third deviation signal mentioned above) is obtained by subtracting Spd_Fil_1 from Spd_Fil_3. Finally, first-order low-pass filtering (weak, i.e., the fourth filtering coefficient mentioned above) processing is performed on Diff_2, and the absolute value of the result is taken as the speed fluctuation amount of the electric gearbox, which is represented by Spd_BumpyVal.

[0067] The speed fluctuation information of the electric gearbox is used to determine whether the current road working condition of the electric vehicle is a bad road working condition, and if it is determined that the current road working condition is a bad road working condition, the gearbox is controlled to execute a shift suppression strategy.

[0068] Exemplarily, after obtaining the speed fluctuation information mentioned above, the bad road working condition can be identified based on the speed fluctuation information and the original speed signal.

[0069] Specifically, the step 102 can include the following step 102a1 and step 102a2:

[0070] The step 102a1 obtains a speed reference value at any target moment based on the first speed parameter signal, and obtains a speed fluctuation value at the target moment based on the speed fluctuation information.

[0071] The step 102a2 determines that the road condition of the electric vehicle at the target moment is a bad road condition when the speed reference value is greater than a bad road identification limit value and the speed fluctuation value is greater than a first fluctuation limit value.

[0072] The bad road identification limit value is determined based on the minimum accuracy of the speed sensor.

[0073] It should be noted that the steps 102a1 and 102a2 are for determining the bad road condition at any moment, that is, whether the road condition at any moment (including the current moment) is a bad road condition can be determined according to the method in the steps 102a1 and 102a2.

[0074] For example, the bad road identification limit value is defined based on the accuracy or resolution of the speed sensor and / or the target wheel system at ultra-low speed. The speed sensor acquisition system has a blind area, and the speed value collected in this area is not reliable, so the misjudgment in this stage needs to be excluded.

[0075] Based on this, after the step 102a1, the step 102 can further include the following step 102a3:

[0076] The step 102a3 does not determine the bad road condition when the speed reference value is less than or equal to the bad road identification limit value.

[0077] For example, when the gearbox speed value at the target moment is less than or equal to the bad road identification limit value, the bad road condition is not identified and determined to avoid misjudgment.

[0078] For example, when the gearbox speed value at the target moment is greater than the bad road identification limit value and the speed fluctuation value is greater than the first fluctuation limit value, it is determined that the road condition of the electric vehicle at the target moment is a bad road condition.

[0079] Specifically, after the step 102a1, the step 102 can further include the following step 102a4:

[0080] Step 102a4, in the case that the rotation speed reference value is greater than the bad road identification limit value, the rotation speed fluctuation value is less than the second fluctuation limit value, and the duration exceeds the preset judgment duration, it is determined that the road working condition of the electric vehicle at the target time is a non-bad road working condition.

[0081] The second fluctuation limit value is less than the first fluctuation limit value.

[0082] Exemplarily, when the gearbox rotation speed value at the target time is greater than the bad road identification limit value, the rotation speed fluctuation value is less than the second fluctuation limit value, and the duration exceeds the preset judgment duration, it can be determined that the road working condition of the electric vehicle at the target time is a non-bad road working condition.

[0083] Exemplarily, if the gearbox rotation speed value at the target time and the rotation speed fluctuation value satisfy other judgment conditions in addition to the judgment conditions in steps 102a1 to 102a4, the road working condition at the target time is consistent with the road working condition judgment result at the previous time.

[0084] It should be noted that the first fluctuation limit and the second fluctuation limit are both defined based on the fluctuation value that can be accepted by the normal control logic according to the real vehicle test data performance.

[0085] For example, as shown in Figure 4 When Spd_Fil_1≤limit 1 (i.e. the above-mentioned bad road identification limit value), no bad road working condition identification is performed, and at this time, the value of BumpySt used to represent the bad road working condition can be directly set to 0 (BumpySt=0 can also represent a non-bad road working condition). When Spd_Fil_1>limit 1 and Spd_BumpyVal>limit 2 (i.e. the above-mentioned first fluctuation limit value), BumpySt is set to 1, indicating that the current road working condition is a bad road working condition. When Spd_Fil_1>limit 1 and Spd_BumpyVal<limit 3 (i.e. the above-mentioned second fluctuation limit value), the counter Counter starts to perform accumulation calculation, and when the value of the counter exceeds a preset number T (i.e. the above-mentioned duration exceeds the preset judgment duration), BumpySt is set to 0, indicating that the current road working condition is a non-bad road working condition. When Spd_Fil_1>limit 1 and Spd_BumpyVal≥limit 3, the value of the counter is directly reset, and BumpySt is set to 0, indicating that the current road working condition is a non-bad road working condition.

[0086] Based on Figure 4 For example, as shown in Figure 3As shown in FIG. 6, when the rotation of the gearbox fluctuates and the judgment condition is met, the value of BumpySt is 1, indicating that the current road condition is a bad road condition; and when the value of the counter Counter exceeds the preset value, the value of BumpySt is 0, indicating that the current road condition is not a bad road condition.

[0087] Exemplarily, in the case of determining that the current road condition is a bad road condition, the shift suppression strategy can be executed to reduce the shift frequency of the gearbox and increase the shift timeout judgment time length of the gearbox, so as to reduce the probability of shift failure and protect the hardware of the gearbox to a certain extent and improve the hardware life of the gearbox.

[0088] The control method applied to the gearbox of the electric vehicle provided in the embodiments of the present application first acquires an original rotation speed signal collected by a gearbox rotation speed sensor, and generates rotation speed fluctuation information after performing low-pass filtering processing on the original rotation speed signal with different filtering coefficients for multiple times; then, whether the current road condition of the electric vehicle is a bad road condition is judged according to the rotation speed fluctuation information; finally, in the case of determining that the current road condition is a bad road condition, the gearbox is controlled to execute a shift suppression strategy. The rotation speed fluctuation information includes the rotation speed fluctuation amount at each moment; the bad road condition is used to indicate that the electric vehicle is on a bumpy road; and the shift suppression strategy is used to reduce the shift frequency of the gearbox and increase the shift timeout judgment time length of the gearbox. In this way, the bad road condition can be accurately identified, and the corresponding shift suppression strategy can be taken, which not only improves the hardware life of the electric gearbox, but also reduces the probability of shift failure under the bad road condition.

[0099] The application provides a control device applied to a gearbox of an electric vehicle. First, an original speed signal collected by a gearbox speed sensor is acquired, and speed fluctuation information is generated after performing low-pass filtering processing on the original speed signal with different filtering coefficients multiple times. Then, whether the current road working condition of the electric vehicle is a bad road working condition is determined according to the speed fluctuation information. Finally, when it is determined that the current road working condition is a bad road working condition, the gearbox is controlled to perform a shift suppression strategy. The speed fluctuation information includes a speed fluctuation amount at each moment. The bad road working condition is used to indicate that the electric vehicle is on a bumpy road. The shift suppression strategy is used to reduce the shift frequency of the gearbox and increase the shift timeout judgment duration of the gearbox. In this way, the bad road working condition can be accurately identified, and the corresponding shift suppression strategy can be taken, which not only improves the hardware life of the electric gearbox, but also reduces the probability of shift failure under the bad road working condition.
