Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fault diagnosis technology for electromechanical composite transmission systems, and in particular relates to a fault diagnosis system and method for electromechanical composite transmission systems based on risk sequence fault tree. Background Technology

[0002] Faced with increasingly severe environmental pollution problems, countries around the world have responded to the call and introduced relevant environmental protection policies, with a global call to enter the era of a low-carbon economy. In 2020, the China Society of Automotive Engineers released the "Technical Roadmap for Energy-Saving and New Energy Vehicles." Figure 2 The document proposes to actively promote the hybridization of traditional vehicles, including the full adoption of electric drive technology in both new energy vehicles and traditional vehicles, and that by 2035 all traditional energy-powered passenger vehicles will be hybrid.

[0003] A safe and reliable electromechanical hybrid drive system is a core technology for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). Currently, major domestic and international research institutes and high-efficiency equipment manufacturers have launched various highly integrated electromechanical hybrid drive systems specifically designed for HEVs. At present, integrating multiple clutches into an electromechanical hybrid drive system based on a planetary gear configuration is an important development direction for HEVs. Failures in any component of the electromechanical hybrid drive system will alter its constrained behavior, further leading to a decrease in vehicle performance. Facing electromechanical hybrid drive systems with a higher degree of electromechanical-hydraulic integration, especially in HEVs equipped with multiple power sources, the actual operating conditions of the electromechanical hybrid drive system are more complex. Traditional on-board self-diagnostic systems are limited by data volume, resulting in limited diagnostic range and self-diagnostic capabilities, and their diagnostic efficiency needs improvement.

[0004] By establishing a risk-sequence fault tree based on big data, historical fault data from vehicles with the same electromechanical hybrid transmission system was effectively utilized. Fault diagnosis of the electromechanical hybrid transmission system based on fault risk sequence can more effectively improve fault diagnosis efficiency and save diagnosis time and manpower costs when faults occur suddenly. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned technological development trends and the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this invention is to propose a fault diagnosis system and method for electromechanical hybrid transmission systems based on risk sequence fault trees, so as to make full use of fault big data and solve the problem that it is difficult to effectively realize fault diagnosis of electromechanical hybrid transmission systems of hybrid vehicles in existing technologies.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows:

[0007] A fault diagnosis system for an electromechanical hybrid transmission system based on a risk-sequence fault tree includes: a vehicle body, an on-board data unit, a fault diagnosis unit, a cloud-based data analysis platform, and other vehicles of the same type. The vehicle body is equipped with a powertrain and an electromechanical hybrid transmission system. The cloud-based data analysis platform is connected to the on-board data unit and other vehicles of the same type via a communication network. The other vehicles of the same type are those manufactured with the same powertrain and electromechanical hybrid transmission system as the vehicle body. The on-board data unit includes a data acquisition module and a data storage module. The data acquisition module includes a speed sensor and a pressure sensor. The fault diagnosis unit transmits data with the on-board data unit via a CAN bus. The fault diagnosis unit includes a vehicle physical model, a fault prediction module, a fault diagnosis module, and a fault display module. The cloud-based data analysis platform includes a fault big data unit, a data analysis unit, and a risk-sequence fault tree based on big data. The fault big data unit includes a fault database and an FMEA module.

[0008] Furthermore, the power system includes an engine, an electric motor, and a battery.

[0009] Furthermore, the electromechanical composite transmission system includes a power coupling mechanism and a clutch; the power coupling mechanism is a double planetary gear mechanism; the double planetary gear mechanism includes a sun gear, a planet carrier, planet gears, and a ring gear.

[0010] Furthermore, the data acquisition module includes multiple detection sensors for real-time acquisition of dynamic data of the electromechanical hybrid transmission system of the hybrid vehicle; the detection sensors include speed sensors and pressure sensors.

[0011] Furthermore, the data storage module stores the vehicle's factory-preset basic parameter information, including the vehicle's mass parameters, structural parameters, and performance parameters of various power system components; the data storage module stores real-time detection data collected by sensors and classifies and stores the collected data; the data storage module can load risk sequence fault trees based on big data; and the data storage module stores diagnostic data from the fault diagnosis module.

[0012] Furthermore, the fault big data unit includes a fault database and an FMEA module. The fault database stores historical fault data of other in-use mechatronic transmission systems of the same model. This historical fault data includes losses during faults in the mechatronic transmission systems of the same model, fault diagnosis results, vehicle operating data under fault conditions, and specific fault events and sub-events that caused the faults. The FMEA module analyzes the historical fault data, marking the fault phenomena of different faults and their corresponding fault events and sub-events.

[0013] Furthermore, the data analysis unit analyzes the historical big data of faults stored in the fault big data unit, analyzes the loss situation when different faults occur, and assigns a fault impact severity score to the fault phenomenon; it statistically counts the fault events and fault sub-events of different fault phenomena, and calculates the fault occurrence frequency score of a certain fault event and fault sub-event; it analyzes the fault diagnosis results, counts the number of correct diagnoses and misdiagnoses of fault events and fault sub-events of different fault phenomena, and calculates the fault detection difficulty score of fault events and fault sub-events; it calculates the risk order number of fault events or fault sub-events, where the risk order number = fault impact severity score × fault occurrence frequency score × fault detection difficulty score.

[0014] Furthermore, the risk sequence fault tree based on big data is a fault tree of the electromechanical composite transmission system that is expanded according to the risk sequence number of fault events or fault sub-events after statistical analysis of historical fault big data by the data analysis unit.

[0015] Furthermore, the other vehicles of the same type are hybrid electric vehicles of the same model as the vehicle body, equipped with the same power system and electromechanical composite transmission system, and the basic parameter information preset at the factory is consistent with that of the vehicle body. The basic parameters include vehicle weight parameters and performance parameter information of various components of the power system.

[0016] Furthermore, the vehicle physical model is a simulation physical model with consistent parameters across the vehicle itself. These parameters include basic vehicle parameters, powertrain performance parameters, and structural parameters of each component of the electromechanical hybrid transmission system.

[0017] Furthermore, the fault prediction module predicts faults based on a risk sequence fault tree based on big data, and performs fault injection by traversing the vehicle physical model according to the risk sequence number of the fault.

[0018] Furthermore, the fault diagnosis module compares and analyzes the simulation results of the vehicle physical model with the actual vehicle operation data. When the error between the simulation result parameters of each component of the electromechanical composite transmission system and the actual vehicle operation data is less than a preset threshold, the fault diagnosis is completed, and the fault can be determined as the current fault event or a fault sub-event.

[0019] Furthermore, the fault display module displays the fault diagnosis results to remind the driver and facilitate maintenance personnel in carrying out subsequent maintenance work.

[0020] The present invention provides a fault diagnosis method for an electromechanical composite transmission system based on fault risk sequence, comprising the following steps:

[0021] (1) Sensors collect the actual operating data of the vehicle under actual working conditions;

[0022] (2) Establish a physical model of the vehicle based on sensor data and the vehicle’s factory-preset structure and performance parameters;

[0023] (3) The data storage module loads a risk sequence fault tree based on big data from the cloud data analysis platform;

[0024] (4) The fault prediction module makes a preliminary prediction of the vehicle's faults based on the vehicle operation data collected by the sensors of the data acquisition module and the fault risk sequence number, and injects the fault events or fault sub-events of the risk sequence fault tree into the vehicle physical model.

[0025] (5) The vehicle physical model simulates the actual vehicle operating environment conditions and operates under the condition of predicted fault events or fault sub-events;

[0026] (6) The fault diagnosis module will compare and analyze the simulation results of the vehicle physical model with the actual vehicle operation data. When the error between the simulation result parameters of each component of the electromechanical composite transmission system and the actual vehicle data is less than the preset threshold, the fault diagnosis is completed. The fault can be determined as the current fault event or fault sub-event, and the fault is displayed and the fault diagnosis data is stored.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this invention, due to the adoption of the above technical solutions, are as follows:

[0028] (1) It makes full use of the redundant historical big data information of the electromechanical composite transmission system of the same type of hybrid electric vehicle in the cloud, providing reliable data support for fault diagnosis. The FMEA analysis based on this has dynamic real-time performance, and the fault events and fault sub-events corresponding to the fault phenomena of different faults can be updated in real time.

[0029] (2) By assigning a fault evaluation method based on risk sequence number to fault events and fault sub-events under different fault phenomena, a risk sequence fault tree based on big data can be established, which can provide an effective predictive basis for fault diagnosis.

[0030] (3) The proposed fault diagnosis method can predict and inject faults in a targeted manner, and can realize accurate and efficient diagnosis of faults in electromechanical composite transmission systems. Its real-time performance is better than that of existing diagnostic technologies. Attached Figure Description
