Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of parking power take-off technology, and in particular to a parking power take-off control method and device. Background Technology
[0002] The mechanical power take-off (PTO) on the intermediate shaft of an AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) gearbox has become the most economical and convenient power source for specialized equipment mounted on pure electric special-purpose vehicles. Existing AMT gearbox mechanical PTO control technology in the parking state involves the driver operating a PTO control switch to directly control the PTO solenoid valve, engage the PTO, and then set a fixed speed for it to operate. This requires the driver to subjectively judge whether the PTO is properly engaged and functioning correctly. However, this subjective judgment is prone to errors, posing safety risks to the mechanical PTO of the equipment. Furthermore, the PTO can only maintain a fixed speed and cannot be adjusted, thus failing to meet the technical requirements of special-purpose equipment mounted on special-purpose vehicles for intelligence, connectivity, and energy efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0054] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0055] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a parking power take-off control method, applied in an electric vehicle control system, the method comprising:
[0056] Determine the overall vehicle status;
[0057] Based on the overall vehicle status, determine whether the parking power take-off conditions are met. If they are met, send a power take-off request to the remote information control unit, so that the remote information control unit controls the power take-off unit to connect to the transmission.
[0058] The power take-off unit is controlled to reach the target operating speed based on either the first mode or the second mode. The first mode is a semi-automatic adjustment mode, and the second mode is a fully automatic adjustment mode.
[0059] Detect the current vehicle status;
[0060] Based on the current vehicle status, determine whether the conditions for exiting the parking power take-off are met. If they are met, control the power take-off speed to be reset to zero.
[0061] Send a disconnect request to the remote information control unit, causing the remote information control unit to disconnect the power take-off unit from the gearbox.
[0062] For example, the vehicle in this embodiment includes an electric vehicle control system (VCU), an instrument panel, a remote information control unit (TCU), a superstructure controller (part of the VCU), a vehicle cloud platform, a multi-function steering wheel, an AMT transmission, and a power take-off (PTO). The VCU interacts with the instrument panel, TCU, superstructure controller, and vehicle cloud platform via, but not limited to, CAN network message data. The intermediate shaft of the AMT transmission connects to the PTO to achieve parking power take-off. The multi-function steering wheel has multiple function buttons; the user inputs corresponding button signals by pressing these buttons. These button signals and the PTO status feedback hard-wired signals are respectively transmitted to the VCU. The VCU is used for judging parking power take-off conditions, controlling PTO commands, receiving, arbitrating, and forwarding PTO operating speed, as well as judging and handling abnormal states of the vehicle, AMT transmission, and PTO. The instrument panel displays PTO status information and operating speed, among other relevant information. In this embodiment, after determining that the vehicle's overall condition meets the requirements for parking power take-off (PTO) and controlling the connection between the PTO and the transmission, the VCU can either implement PTO operation control in a semi-automatic mode (requiring manual input) or a fully automatic mode (requiring no manual operation). This allows the vehicle to be adapted to different usage environments or work scenarios, providing more flexible control. Simultaneously, the VCU monitors the vehicle's overall status to promptly determine if the vehicle is still suitable for parking PTO. If not, it controls the PTO to stop operating and disconnects the PTO from the transmission, ensuring vehicle safety.
[0063] Specifically, in combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when determining whether the parking power take-off condition is met based on the overall vehicle status, the following are included:
[0064] Based on the overall vehicle status, it is determined that the vehicle's high voltage is ready, the remote information control unit is operating normally, the vehicle is in a parked state, and the transmission is in neutral.
[0065] All of the above conditions must be met simultaneously for it to be determined that the current vehicle is suitable for parking power take-off; otherwise, parking power take-off cannot be used.
[0066] Furthermore, the method in this embodiment also includes:
[0067] The system determines whether the power take-off (PTO) and the intermediate shaft of the transmission are stably connected. If so, it controls the PTO to reach the target operating speed based on either the first or second mode. In other words, PTO operation control can only be performed after confirming a stable connection between the PTO and the intermediate shaft of the transmission. For example, before parking PTO, the VCU first judges the overall vehicle status. Only when the system status meets all the conditions for parking PTO does the VCU send a PTO request command to the TCU. The TCU then controls the PTO to connect to the intermediate shaft of the AMT transmission. Next, the TCU feeds back the status signal of whether the PTO is engaged to the VCU via message and hard-wired signals, thus enabling the VCU to know the connection status between the PTO and the transmission.
[0068] Furthermore, based on the first mode, the power take-off unit is controlled to achieve the target operating speed, including:
[0069] The power take-off status information is sent to the instrument for display, and the user is prompted to input a speed request command based on the instrument.
[0070] In response to the speed request command, it sends an initial power take-off operating speed request to the remote information control unit, and prompts the user to adjust the operating speed of the power take-off within the speed adjustment range based on the instrument, until the power take-off reaches the target operating speed.
[0071] Optionally, the method further includes:
[0072] When the power take-off unit (PTO) has been operating stably for the target duration based on the target operating speed, it will automatically save the target operating speed at least once, so that the PTO can be directly called upon to control the operation of the PTO the next time the vehicle is started and parked.
[0073] For example, such as Figure 2As shown, after the VCU confirms the successful connection between the power take-off (PTO) and the transmission, it sends the PTO status information to the instrument panel, prompting the driver to take the next step. Based on the prompt, the driver presses the speed request button on the multi-function steering wheel. At this time, the VCU responds to the user input command and sends an initial PTO operating speed request to the TCU. Then, the driver further adjusts the PTO operating speed according to the instrument panel prompts and the operational requirements of the superstructure equipment by pressing the plus and minus buttons on the multi-function steering wheel. Each press of the button adjusts the speed by 50 rpm until the driver reaches the target speed. Preferably, in this embodiment, the VCU has upper and lower speed adjustment limits to prevent accidental overspeeding of the PTO, thus protecting the superstructure PTO equipment from damage. Furthermore, the VCU in this embodiment has a self-memory function for setting the target operating speed of the PTO. When the PTO operates stably at a certain speed, such as the target operating speed, for more than 1 minute or 2 minutes (a target time period), the VCU automatically saves this operating speed. Alternatively, it can simultaneously match and save parameters of the actual environment and work scenario, such as the current vehicle's operational requirements. When the vehicle enters parking power take-off mode again, the VCU can determine the appropriate operating speed of the power take-off based on the saved information and directly call that operating speed as the initial target speed of the power take-off in the current working environment. This eliminates the need for the driver to readjust the multi-function steering wheel to set the target speed, simplifying the operation process.
[0074] Optionally, the VCU in this embodiment can also monitor the working status of the power take-off and the current work requirements. If the work requirements change or the working status is not good, the VCU can promptly remind the user to adjust and update the speed of the power take-off based on the instrument.
[0075] Furthermore, based on the second mode, the power take-off unit is controlled to achieve the target operating speed, including:
[0076] Obtain information on the actual operational needs of the vehicles;
[0077] At least the power take-off status information and the actual operation requirements of the vehicle should be sent to the vehicle cloud platform, so that the vehicle cloud platform can determine the target operating speed of the power take-off unit based on the power take-off status information and the actual operation requirements of the vehicle, and feed it back to the electric vehicle control system.
[0078] Arbitration protection is implemented for the target operating speed, and the target operating speed is sent to the remote information control unit, which then controls the power take-off unit to operate at the target operating speed.
[0079] Optionally, the method further includes:
[0080] The system sends real-time information on vehicle operation requirements and the real-time operating status of the power take-off (PTO) to the vehicle cloud platform, enabling the platform to adjust the PTO's operating speed based on the received information and feed it back to the electric vehicle control system.
[0081] Arbitration protection is applied to the adjusted operating speed, and the adjusted operating speed is sent to the remote information control unit, which then controls the power take-off unit to operate at the adjusted operating speed.
[0082] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, before parking PTO, the VCU needs to determine the overall vehicle status. Only when the system status meets all the conditions for parking PTO can the VCU send a PTO request command to the TCU. The TCU controls the PTO to connect to the intermediate shaft of the AMT transmission. At the same time, the TCU feeds back the status signal of whether the PTO is engaged to the VCU through messages and hard-wired signals. After the VCU confirms that the PTO is successfully engaged with the transmission, it sends the PTO status information, vehicle operation requirements, and other relevant information to the superstructure controller and vehicle cloud platform, and displays the PTO status information on the instrument panel. In the parking state, the superstructure controller or cloud platform first sends the initial speed to the TCU, which then controls the PTO to run. Next, it adjusts the speed according to the actual working requirements of the equipment to form the target operating speed. Then, it sends the target speed to the VCU, which, after arbitration and protection, forwards it to the TCU, enabling the TCU to control the PTO to run according to the target operating speed. In addition, when the vehicle is parked, the vehicle cloud platform in this embodiment can also adjust the target operating speed of the power take-off based on parameters such as vehicle scheduling and changes in the actual working time and intensity requirements of the superstructure equipment in the current working scenario, as well as changes in the working environment and working requirements. The adjusted operating speed is then sent to the VCU for arbitration protection and then forwarded to the TCU, thereby controlling the power take-off to operate based on the adjusted operating speed.
[0083] Furthermore, the VCU monitors abnormal conditions of the vehicle and system fault status in real time. When any condition for exiting the parking power take-off is met, the target speed of the power take-off unit needs to be immediately reset to zero, so that the superstructure equipment stops working, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle's power system and the superstructure power take-off equipment.
[0084] Among these, determining whether the conditions for exiting the parking power take-off are met based on the current vehicle status includes:
[0085] If, based on the current vehicle status, the vehicle is in one or more of the following states: high-voltage power failure, remote information control unit malfunction, handbrake released, transmission in non-neutral, or parking power take-off switch closed, then the current vehicle status meets the conditions for exiting parking power take-off. In other words, if any one of these conditions is met, it can be determined that the conditions for exiting parking power take-off are met.
[0086] Continue to combine Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the method in this embodiment further includes:
[0087] When the vehicle is confirmed to be out of the parking power take-off state, the power take-off status information will be displayed on the instrument panel;
[0088] When the target operating speed is determined by the second mode control, the power take-off status information is sent to the vehicle cloud platform to release the cloud control of the power take-off.
[0089] For example, when the parking PTO is disengaged, the VCU controls the PTO speed to zero and sends a command to the TCU to disconnect the PTO from the transmission. When the disconnection is successful, the PTO status information is sent to the instrument panel display. However, when the target operating speed is determined by the vehicle cloud platform, the disconnection status information needs to be sent to the cloud platform simultaneously, causing the cloud platform to stop cloud control of the PTO.
[0090] Based on the above embodiments, it can be seen that the control method in this embodiment can support a semi-automatic control mode for the power take-off (PTO). In this mode, the system can guide the driver to freely adjust the PTO's operating speed by adjusting the buttons on the multi-function steering wheel as needed. Simultaneously, the VCU has a self-memory function for the target operating speed setting of the PTO, facilitating subsequent use by the driver. Furthermore, the method in this embodiment also supports intelligent control, i.e., fully automatic control. The superstructure controller or vehicle cloud platform sends real-time operating speed request messages to adjust the PTO's operating speed according to the needs of the operating equipment. This enables the superstructure equipment to achieve intelligent network-connected switching of operating modes, adapting to more special-purpose vehicle operating scenarios and achieving the goal of energy-efficient and high-performance vehicle control.
[0091] like Figure 4 As shown, another embodiment of the present invention also provides a parking power take-off control device, applied in an electric vehicle control system, the parking power take-off control device comprising:

If it is met, a power take-off request is sent to the remote information control unit, so that the remote information control unit controls the power take-off unit to connect to the transmission.
