[0002] For hybrid vehicles, an electric motor is installed between the engine and the transmission. When the motor is in use, it is necessary to prevent its speed from exceeding the limit. If the motor speed exceeds the limit, it will reduce its service life and affect the safety of the motor controller and the motor's durability.

[0003] In response, existing technologies typically detect the motor speed and, when the motor speed is about to exceed a threshold, provide negative torque to the motor to reduce the motor speed and prevent overspeed. However, this control method ignores the driver's subjectivity during the driving process. Because the actual driving scenarios of hybrid vehicles are complex and changeable, if the motor is at risk of overspeed due to the driver's active operation, such control could easily lead to safety accidents.

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0070] Example 1

[0071] Existing technologies typically detect motor speed and apply negative torque to the motor when it is about to exceed a threshold to reduce the motor speed and prevent overspeed. However, this control method ignores the driver's subjectivity during driving. Since the actual driving scenarios of hybrid vehicles are complex and changeable, if the motor is at risk of overspeed due to the driver's active operation, such control could easily lead to safety accidents.

[0072] To address this issue, this embodiment provides a hybrid vehicle motor overspeed control method. This method is applicable to controlling the motor speed of a hybrid vehicle. It can be executed by a hybrid vehicle motor overspeed control device, which can be implemented through software and / or hardware and integrated into the hybrid vehicle.

[0073] Specifically, this hybrid vehicle employs a P2 system, which includes an engine, a transmission, and an electric motor connected between the engine and the transmission. The motor is connected to a power battery, the transmission is connected to a drive axle, and the drive axle is connected to the wheels. The engine and / or the electric motor can transmit power to the transmission and ultimately output it to the wheels. The electric motor can also generate electricity and store it in the power battery.

[0074] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the overspeed control method for the motor of this hybrid vehicle includes the following steps:

[0075] S100: Obtain the actual speed of the motor.

[0076] The actual speed of the motor can be obtained through a speed sensor.

[0077] S110: Compare the actual speed with the preset speed. The preset speed is the maximum allowable speed when the motor is running normally.

[0078] If n a *Preset speed ≤ Actual speed < Preset speed, n a If <1, then execute S120.

[0079] If n b *Preset speed ≤ Actual speed < n a *Preset rotation speed, n b <na If so, then execute S190.

[0080] If the actual rotational speed is < n b If the preset speed is reached, repeat step S100; at this time, the motor speed is within the normal range and has not reached the minimum limit for upshifting, so no adjustment is required.

[0081] If the preset speed ≤ the actual speed < n c *Preset rotation speed, 1 < n c If so, then S200 will be executed.

[0082] If n c If the preset speed is less than or equal to the actual speed, then execute S230.

[0083] In this embodiment, n a =0.95; n c =1.1. In other embodiments, n a n c The value can also be set as needed.

[0084] S120: Obtain the actual throttle opening and the slope where the hybrid vehicle is located.

[0085] The throttle opening can be detected by a throttle opening sensor, and the slope of the hybrid vehicle can be detected by a slope sensor or gyroscope.

[0086] S130: Determine the driver's subjective intervention level based on the actual throttle opening and the slope of the hybrid vehicle.

[0087] In this embodiment, the driver's degree of subjective intervention is a real number not greater than 1. Specifically, in this embodiment, the driver's degree of subjective intervention is 0 or 1.

[0088] Specifically, determining the driver's subjective intervention level based on the actual throttle opening and the slope of the hybrid vehicle includes the following steps.

[0089] S1301: Compare the actual throttle opening with the preset opening;

[0090] If the actual throttle opening is greater than the preset opening and the duration exceeds the preset time, then execute S1302; if the actual opening is not greater than the preset opening or the duration does not exceed the preset time, then execute S1304.

[0091] S1302: Compare the slope where the hybrid vehicle is located with the preset slope.

[0092] If the slope where the hybrid vehicle is located does not exceed the preset slope, then execute S1303; if the slope where the hybrid vehicle is located exceeds the preset slope, then execute S1304.

[0093] S1303: Determine the driver's degree of subjective intervention as 1.

[0094] S1304: The driver's subjective intervention level is determined to be 0.

[0095] In this embodiment, the preset opening is 20% of the maximum throttle opening; the preset time is 3 seconds; and the preset slope is -5°. In other embodiments, the preset opening, preset time, and preset slope can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0096] It should be noted that when the actual throttle opening is greater than the preset opening, the hybrid vehicle will be in an accelerating state if it is driving on a flat road.

[0097] When the actual throttle opening is greater than the preset opening and the duration exceeds the preset time, it indicates that the driver is actively pressing the throttle and has a strong subjective intention. Based on this, when the slope of the hybrid vehicle does not exceed -5°, it indicates that the hybrid vehicle is on a flat road, an uphill slope, or a downhill slope between 0 and -5°. In this case, the driver's subjective intervention level is determined to be 1. The driver's insistence on vehicle acceleration may be influenced by external factors, such as overtaking or emergency obstacle avoidance. Simultaneously, when the slope of the hybrid vehicle does not exceed -5°, the vehicle's own weight cannot drive the vehicle to move on its own, so the motor will not immediately exceed the speed limit. In this situation, the driver's subjective intention can be considered to ensure vehicle safety, but the target torque expected by the driver also needs to be reduced to protect the motor.

[0098] However, if the actual throttle opening exceeds the preset opening and the duration exceeds the preset time, and the slope the hybrid vehicle is on exceeds the preset slope, then the driver's subjective intervention level must be set to 0. This is because when the slope exceeds -5°, the vehicle can move on its own under its own weight. Even without the driver actively accelerating, the hybrid vehicle's speed will increase, leading to an increase in the motor's speed. If the driver actively accelerates when the slope exceeds -5°, it will exacerbate the risk of the motor overspeeding. Therefore, the driver's subjective intervention level needs to be set to 0 to ensure that the actual torque demand is minimized in subsequent steps to protect the motor.

[0099] If the actual throttle opening is not greater than the preset opening, or if the actual throttle opening is greater than the preset opening but the duration is less than the preset time, it indicates that the driver may have misoperated the accelerator pedal, causing it to be touched. In this case, the driver's subjective intervention should be set to 0.

[0100] S140: Determine the adjustment coefficient based on the driver's subjective intervention.

[0101] In this embodiment, the controller pre-stores a first correspondence between the driver's subjective intervention level and the adjustment coefficient. This first correspondence can be obtained based on a large number of previous tests, and the corresponding adjustment coefficient can be queried from the first correspondence based on the driver's subjective intervention level.

[0102] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the driver's subjective intervention level is set to 0, the adjustment coefficient is 0; when the driver's subjective intervention level is set to 1, the adjustment coefficient is a; where a is a real number greater than 0 and less than 1. This embodiment exemplarily provides a scheme where a equals 50%, but in other embodiments, the value of a can be adjusted as needed.

[0103] S150: Determines the target torque requirement based on the actual throttle opening.

[0104] In this embodiment, the controller pre-stores a second correspondence between the actual throttle opening and the target torque requirement. This second correspondence can be obtained based on a large number of previous tests, and the corresponding target torque requirement can be queried from the second correspondence based on the actual throttle opening.

[0105] S160: Adjust the target torque demand based on the adjustment coefficient to obtain the actual torque demand.

[0106] In this embodiment, the actual required torque = the target required torque * the adjustment coefficient. In other embodiments, the relationship between the actual required torque, the target required torque, and the adjustment coefficient can be set as needed.

[0107] When the actual throttle opening is greater than the preset opening and the duration exceeds the preset time, and the slope of the hybrid vehicle does not exceed the preset slope, the actual torque demand is adjusted to half of the target torque demand. When the actual throttle opening is not greater than the preset opening, or the duration does not exceed the preset time, or the slope of the hybrid vehicle exceeds the preset slope, the actual torque demand is adjusted to 0. Specifically, when the driver's subjective intervention is 0, it is equivalent to the driver's operation being a mistake, or although the driver is subjectively operating, the hybrid vehicle is going down a steep slope, which could easily cause the motor to overspeed quickly, posing a significant safety hazard. Therefore, the actual torque demand needs to be equal to 0. When the driver's subjective intervention is 1, it is equivalent to the driver's subjective operation, indicating that the driver may need to accelerate the vehicle due to the actual driving environment. However, this also increases the risk of motor overspeed to some extent. To balance motor safety and actual road conditions, the actual torque demand is equal to 50% of the target torque demand.

[0108] S170: Actual required torque output from the engine and / or electric motor.

[0109] The hybrid vehicle motor overspeed control method provided in this embodiment obtains the actual speed of the motor, compares the actual speed with a preset speed, and when n a When the preset speed is less than or equal to the actual speed, the system obtains the actual throttle opening and the slope of the hybrid vehicle. Based on the actual throttle opening and the slope of the hybrid vehicle, it determines the driver's subjective intervention level, determines the adjustment coefficient, determines the target torque demand based on the actual throttle opening, adjusts the target torque demand based on the adjustment coefficient to obtain the actual torque demand, and controls the engine and / or motor to output the actual torque demand. When the actual speed of the motor is close to overspeed, it fully considers the driver's current subjective driving intention, taking into account both motor safety and driving environment safety.

[0110] Optionally, the hybrid vehicle motor overspeed control method also includes the following steps after step S170:

[0111] S180: Issue the first alarm message, which is used to prompt the driver to brake and to warn the driver that the motor is about to overspeed.

[0112] Specifically, a first warning message can be issued via the instrument panel. This first warning message may include, but is not limited to, audible, visual, and text messages, to prompt the driver to actively slow down. It should be noted that the driver may follow the advice of the first warning message and brake, which can effectively reduce the motor speed. However, the driver may also disregard the first warning message, which may cause the motor to eventually exceed the preset speed.

[0113] S190: Issue a second warning message, which is used to prompt the driver to shift up.

[0114] Specifically, a second alarm message can be issued through the dashboard, which may include, but is not limited to, sound, light, and text.

[0115] Specifically, as long as the current gear is not the highest driving gear, regardless of the current driving gear of the hybrid vehicle, when the motor speed is not less than n... b *At the preset engine speed, the transmission can be controlled to upshift. However, when the current gear is the highest gear, upshifting is not possible because there is no further gear to upshift to.

[0116] When the second warning message is issued, it indicates that the vehicle is at risk of speeding and the driver needs to shift up to eliminate the hazard. Similarly, the driver may follow the second warning message's advice to shift up, or they may not, which could easily cause the motor's actual speed to enter the n range. a*If the preset speed is within the preset speed range, the risk of motor overspeed will be further increased.

[0117] S200: The transmission is upshifting.

[0118] S210: The electric motor generates electricity and / or the engine brakes.

[0119] When preset speed ≤ actual speed < n c *At the preset speed, the motor is already overspeeding. Therefore, it is necessary to force the gearbox to upshift, reducing the transmission ratio and using the wheels to pull the motor backward, thus reducing its speed. Simultaneously, the motor generates electricity and / or the engine brakes to provide negative torque, further reducing the motor's speed. This situation often occurs on long, steep downhill slopes.

[0120] Optionally, the hybrid vehicle motor overspeed control method also includes the following steps after step S210:

[0121] S220: Issue a third alarm message. The third alarm message is used to inform the driver that the motor has exceeded the speed limit, to inform the driver that a forced upshift has been made, and to remind the driver to perform a braking operation.

[0122] Specifically, a third alarm message can be issued through the dashboard, which may include, but is not limited to, sound, light, and text.

[0123] Normally, steps S00 and S210 can reduce the motor speed, but it is possible that certain special road conditions or mechanical failures may cause the motor speed to exceed n further. c *The preset speed can be controlled using the following steps.

[0124] S230: Motor clearing torque.

[0125] S240: Stop the high-voltage power supply to the entire vehicle.

[0126] When the motor speed exceeds n c *When the preset speed is reached, it indicates that the motor is already severely overspeeding. This can easily cause the back electromotive force generated to exceed the voltage limit of the IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) of the motor controller (MCU), resulting in the breakdown of the IGBT of the motor controller and a significant reduction in the motor's tolerance.

[0127] S250: Switch to engine-only drive mode.

[0128] Optionally, the hybrid vehicle motor overspeed control method also includes the following located after S250:

[0129] S260: Issues the fourth alarm message, which is used to inform the driver that the motor is seriously overspeeding, to prompt the driver to perform braking operations, and to indicate that the driver has switched to engine-only drive mode.

[0130] Specifically, a fourth alarm message can be issued through the instrument panel, which may include, but is not limited to, sound, light, and text.

[0131] Optionally, step S100 is repeated after steps S190, S220 and S260, thus achieving closed-loop control of the motor speed.
