Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an intelligent control system for active steering of trailers. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing sophistication of modern intelligent vehicles, the steering field has gained growing attention, and intelligent power steering has become a key research area. Trailers are crucial for vehicle transportation, and their steering is an indispensable aspect. In recent years, with commercial development, the intelligence of transport vehicles such as trailers has received widespread attention, and active trailer steering has become increasingly popular in the industry, representing the future direction of trailer steering technology.

[0003] However, for the stability of trailer driving and the safety of steering, the adjustment of the trailer's active steering angle and steering assist needs to consider the current trailer's roll and yaw attitude, steering evaluation factors, and adjustment ratio coefficient. Therefore, how to effectively ensure the safety of trailer driving and steering and evaluate the current trailer driving attitude to adjust the steering assist has become a technical problem that the applicant urgently needs to solve. To improve these problems, this invention proposes an intelligent control system for active steering of trailers. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent control system for active steering of trailers to solve the problems encountered in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an intelligent control system for active steering of trailers, comprising a trailer driving data acquisition unit, a trailer tilt and yaw attitude calculation unit, a trailer coordinate transformation unit, a trailer active steering angle calculation unit, a trailer steering evaluation unit, a trailer steering adjustment unit, and a trailer steering control execution unit.

[0006] The trailer travel data acquisition unit includes a displacement coordinate storage unit for storing the trajectory coordinates of the tractor, a trailer travel side slip angle sensor for acquiring the trailer travel side slip angle β, a trailer travel side tilt angle sensor for acquiring the trailer travel side tilt angle φ, and a trailer travel yaw rate sensor for acquiring the trailer travel yaw rate. The trailer lateral acceleration sensor is used to obtain the trailer lateral acceleration a. y The wheel resistance sensor is used to detect the friction coefficient μ between the road surface and the tire; based on the collected data required for calculating the attitude angle, it is provided to the vehicle driving attitude angle calculation unit.

[0007] The trailer tilt and yaw attitude calculation unit includes a trailer attitude calculation function, designs trailer tilt attitude calculation factor θ1 and trailer yaw attitude calculation factor θ2, and calculates the current trailer driving attitude based on the data information collected by the sensors in the trailer driving data acquisition unit using the trailer attitude calculation function.

[0008] The trailer attitude calculation function is shown in the following formula:

[0009]

[0010] Where Tc is the trailer roll and yaw attitude, τ1 is the sideslip angle correction factor, τ2 is the roll weighting factor, τ3 is the yaw weighting factor, β is the trailer travel sideslip angle, tc1 is the trailer roll attitude, and tc2 is the trailer yaw attitude.

[0011] The trailer coordinate transformation unit converts the coordinate system of the tractor's front axle center to the trailer's coordinate system. By analyzing and calculating the coordinates of the trailer's own rear axle center, the trajectory coordinate offset e can be obtained. s ;

[0012] The trailer active steering angle calculation unit uses the trajectory coordinate offset, trailer lateral acceleration, and trailer intermediate axle active steering angle as optimization index control quantities to construct a trailer active steering angle optimization function, and obtains the active steering angle of each axle of the trailer using the steering angle distribution relationship:

[0013]

[0014] Among them, J t To optimize the active steering angle of the trailer, a y e represents the lateral acceleration of the trailer. s δ is the trajectory coordinate offset. m The active steering angle of the trailer's intermediate axle is denoted by χ1, where χ1 is the weighted control coefficient for the trailer's lateral acceleration, χ2 is the weighted control coefficient for the trajectory coordinate offset, and χ3 is the weighted control coefficient for the trailer's rear axle steering angle. The trailer steering evaluation unit needs to differentiate the attitude threshold based on the trailer roll and yaw attitude Tc value calculated by the trailer roll and yaw attitude calculation unit, introducing a trailer steering evaluation factor ρ to calculate the reasonable range δ of the active steering angle of the trailer's intermediate axle under the current trailer roll and yaw attitude. m * (If the trailer's yaw attitude value Tc is 0.85 < Tc < 1 at this time, it is determined that the trailer is currently in a high yaw attitude):

[0015]

[0016] Where, ρ minρ represents the minimum value within the range of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ. max The maximum value of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ is given within its range, Tc is the current trailer roll and yaw attitude, and δ is the maximum value of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ within its range. m * min δ is the minimum reasonable range of active steering angle for the intermediate axle of the trailer. m * max δ represents the maximum value within the reasonable range of the active steering angle of the trailer's intermediate axle. m * min ≤δ m * ≤δ m * max ;

[0017] The trailer steering adjustment unit adjusts the active steering assist of the trailer according to different trailer tilt and yaw attitudes. It introduces a lateral control proportional coefficient matrix ε and a longitudinal control proportional coefficient matrix ∈. The control proportional coefficient matrix is ​​calculated based on the trailer's current tilt and yaw attitude and transmitted to the trailer steering control execution unit.

[0018] The trailer steering control execution unit designs a power assist control execution function based on the calculated lateral control ratio coefficient matrix and longitudinal control ratio coefficient matrix, thereby controlling the active steering assist of the trailer.

[0019] The trailer roll and yaw attitude calculation unit needs to use the designed trailer roll attitude calculation factor θ1 and trailer yaw attitude calculation factor θ2 to perform preliminary calculations to obtain trailer roll attitude tc1 and trailer yaw attitude tc2.

[0020] Based on the trailer roll angle φ collected by the trailer roll angle sensor in the trailer travel data acquisition unit, there is a trailer roll attitude solution factor θ1. The range of θ1 is limited to 0.5 < θ1 < 1. It is positively correlated with the degree of trailer roll. The larger the roll angle, the larger the value of the roll attitude solution factor θ1, and vice versa.

[0021] Based on the preliminary calculation method for the trailer roll attitude, a corresponding trailer roll attitude calculation factor θ1 is assigned to the trailer roll angle φ, and the roll attitude tc1 is calculated.

[0022]

[0023] Where φ is the trailer roll angle and θ1 is the trailer roll attitude factor;

[0024] Based on the trailer travel data collected by the trailer travel yaw rate sensor in the trailer travel data acquisition unit...

[0025] yaw rate There is a trailer yaw attitude solution factor θ2, the range of which is limited to 0 < θ2 < 0.85. It is positively correlated with the degree of yaw of the trailer. The larger the yaw angle, the larger the value of the yaw attitude solution factor θ2, and vice versa.

[0026] Based on the preliminary calculation method for yaw attitude, a corresponding trailer yaw attitude calculation factor θ2 is assigned to the trailer yaw angle φ, and the trailer yaw attitude tc2 is calculated.

[0027]

[0028] Where φ is the trailer yaw angle, which is determined by the trailer yaw rate. Points can be obtained θ2 is the factor for calculating the trailer yaw attitude.

[0029] The trailer attitude calculation function, after completing the initial calculation of the trailer roll attitude tc1 and trailer yaw attitude tc2, assigns a roll angle correction factor τ1, a roll weighting factor τ2, and a yaw weighting factor τ3 to the trailer travel sideslip angle, trailer roll attitude, and trailer yaw attitude, respectively, as follows:

[0030]

[0031] Where Tc is the trailer roll and yaw attitude, τ1 is the sideslip angle correction factor, τ2 is the roll weighting factor, τ3 is the yaw weighting factor, β is the trailer travel sideslip angle, tc1 is the trailer roll attitude, and tc2 is the trailer yaw attitude.

[0032] The trailer coordinate transformation unit analyzes and calculates the tractor trajectory coordinates stored in the displacement coordinate storage device. The tractor front axle center trajectory stored in the displacement coordinate storage device is as follows:

[0033]

[0034] Where X is the trajectory of the center of the front axle of the tractor along the X-axis, Y is the trajectory of the center of the front axle of the tractor along the Y-axis, and x1(n) and y1(n) are the instantaneous coordinates of different coordinate points at the center of the front axle of the tractor along the X and Y axes.

[0035] Instantaneous coordinates of the trailer's intermediate axle center along the X and Y axes during travel:

[0036]

[0037] Where x2(n) and y2(n) are the instantaneous coordinates of different coordinate points traveling at the center of the intermediate axle of the trailer along the X and Y axes, L1 is the center distance of the front axle of the tractor, L2 is the center distance of the rear axle of the trailer, v is the longitudinal speed of the trailer, φ is the yaw angle of the trailer, β is the side slip angle of the trailer, and φ is the side tilt angle of the trailer.

[0038] The coordinate transformation unit is used to convert the coordinate system of the tractor's front axle center to the coordinate system of the trailer:

[0039]

[0040] Among them, X 12 (n) represents the instantaneous coordinates of the tractor's front axle center, converted from the coordinate system to the trailer coordinate system along the X-axis, where Y... 12 (n) represents the instantaneous coordinates of the center of the front axle of the tractor converted from the coordinate system to the coordinate system of the trailer along the Y-axis, L1 is the center distance of the front axle of the tractor, L2 is the center distance of the rear axle of the trailer, φ is the yaw angle of the trailer, and β is the side slip angle of the trailer.

[0041] The trailer active steering angle calculation unit will calculate the offset based on the coordinates in the coordinate system transformed by the trailer coordinate transformation unit, and then calculate the trailer active steering angle:

[0042] At this point, the trajectory coordinate offset e can be obtained by calculating the trajectory coordinates between the rear axle center of the trailer and the front axle center of the tractor after conversion. s :

[0043]

[0044] Among them, e s Y is the trajectory coordinate offset. 12 (i+1) represents the instantaneous coordinates of the tractor's front axle center along the Y-axis, converted from the tractor's coordinate system to the trailer's coordinate system. 12 (i) represents the instantaneous coordinates of the center of the front axle of the tractor vehicle along the Y-axis direction, converted from the coordinate system of the tractor vehicle's coordinate point (i) to the trailer coordinate system. 12 (i+1) represents the instantaneous coordinates of the tractor's front axle center along the X-axis, converted from the tractor's coordinate system to the trailer's coordinate system. 12 (i) represents the instantaneous coordinates of the center of the front axle of the tractor vehicle along the X-axis direction at coordinate point (i) in the tractor vehicle coordinate system converted to the trailer coordinate system.

[0045] Using trajectory coordinate offset, trailer lateral acceleration, and trailer intermediate axle active steering angle as optimization control parameters, an optimization index for trailer active steering angle is designed. Weighted control coefficients are assigned to each optimization control parameter, and an optimization function for trailer active steering angle is constructed.

[0046]

[0047] Among them, J t To optimize the active steering angle of the trailer, a y e represents the lateral acceleration of the trailer. s δ is the trajectory coordinate offset. m χ1 is the weighted control coefficient of the trailer's lateral acceleration, χ2 is the weighted control coefficient of the trajectory coordinate offset, and χ3 is the weighted control coefficient of the trailer's intermediate axle's active steering angle.

[0048] By determining the values ​​of the weight control coefficients, the optimization index J of the trailer's active steering angle is calculated. t :

[0049]

[0050] Among them, J t The active steering angle optimization index for trailers is defined as follows: τ1 is the slip angle correction factor, τ2 is the roll weighting factor, τ3 is the yaw weighting factor, tc1 is the trailer roll attitude, tc2 is the trailer yaw attitude, χ1 is the weight control coefficient of trailer lateral acceleration, χ2 is the weight control coefficient of trajectory coordinate offset, and χ3 is the weight control coefficient of trailer intermediate axle steering angle.

[0051] The control quantity, the active steering angle δ of the trailer intermediate axle, is obtained by solving the optimization function of the trailer's active steering angle. m To ensure that the lateral forces on each axle of the trailer are equal and to distribute the trailer's turning angles taking into account the turning angle relationships of each axle:

[0052]

[0053] Where, δ f For the active steering angle of the trailer's front axle, δ m δ is the active steering angle of the intermediate axle of the trailer. r L3 is the active steering angle of the trailer's rear axle, L4 is the axle spacing of the trailer, and v is the longitudinal speed of the trailer. This represents the yaw rate of the trailer.

[0054] The trailer steering evaluation unit needs to distinguish the attitude threshold based on the trailer tilt and yaw attitude Tc value calculated by the trailer tilt and yaw attitude calculation unit. Under the condition that the vehicle does not have an accident, the size range of the trailer tilt and yaw attitude Tc is 0 < Tc < 1. The larger the calculated Tc value, the greater the tilt and yaw attitude of the trailer, that is, the trailer driving attitude is unstable and prone to accidents such as rollover and fishtailing. Conversely, the smaller the calculated Tc value, the smaller the tilt and yaw attitude of the trailer, and the better the trailer driving stability.

[0055] A trailer steering evaluation factor ρ is introduced, with a limit of 0.3 ≤ ρ ≤ 1. Within this range, the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ serves as the control index for safe trailer steering, meaning that the intermediate axle steering angle calculated by the trailer active steering angle calculation unit must be within the reasonable range δ of the trailer intermediate axle active steering angle under the current roll and yaw attitude. m * Inside;

[0056] If the trailer roll and yaw attitude value Tc is 0.85 < Tc < 1, then the trailer is determined to be in a high roll and yaw attitude. Using the trailer roll and yaw attitude calculation unit to calculate the trailer roll and yaw attitude value Tc and the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ, the reasonable range δ of the active steering angle of the trailer's intermediate axle under the current trailer roll and yaw attitude is calculated. m * :

[0057]

[0058] Where, ρ min ρ represents the minimum value within the range of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ. max The maximum value of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ is given within its range, Tc is the current trailer roll and yaw attitude, and δ is the maximum value of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ within its range. m * min δ is the minimum reasonable range of active steering angle for the intermediate axle of the trailer. m * max δ represents the maximum value within the reasonable range of the active steering angle of the trailer's intermediate axle. m * min ≤δ m * ≤δ m * max ;

[0059] If the trailer roll and yaw attitude value Tc is 0.55 < Tc < 0.85 at this time, it is determined that the trailer is currently in a medium roll and yaw attitude. Using the trailer roll and yaw attitude calculation unit to calculate the trailer roll and yaw attitude value Tc and the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ, the reasonable range δ of the active steering angle of the trailer's intermediate axle under the current trailer roll and yaw attitude is calculated. m * :

[0060]

[0061] Where, ρ min ρ represents the minimum value within the range of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ.max The maximum value of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ is given within its range, Tc is the current trailer roll and yaw attitude, and δ is the maximum value of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ within its range. m * min δ is the minimum reasonable range of active steering angle for the intermediate axle of the trailer. m * max δ represents the maximum value within the reasonable range of the active steering angle of the trailer's intermediate axle. m * min ≤δ m * ≤δ m * max ;

[0062] If the trailer roll and yaw attitude value Tc is 0 < Tc < 0.55, then the trailer is determined to be in a low roll and yaw attitude. Using the trailer roll and yaw attitude calculation unit to calculate the trailer roll and yaw attitude value Tc and the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ, the reasonable range δ of the active steering angle of the trailer's intermediate axle under the current trailer roll and yaw attitude is calculated. m * :

[0063]

[0064] Where, ρ min ρ represents the minimum value within the range of the trailer steering evaluation factor ρ. max For trailer steering assessment

[0065] The maximum value of ρ within its range, Tc is the current trailer roll and yaw attitude, and δ m * min δ is the minimum reasonable range of active steering angle for the intermediate axle of the trailer. m * max δ represents the maximum value within the reasonable range of the active steering angle of the trailer's intermediate axle. m * min ≤δ m * ≤δ m * max .

[0066] The trailer steering adjustment unit adjusts the active steering assist of the trailer according to different trailer tilt and yaw attitudes. It introduces a lateral control proportional coefficient matrix ε and a longitudinal control proportional coefficient matrix ∈. The control proportional coefficient matrix is ​​calculated based on the trailer's current tilt and yaw attitude and passed to the assist control execution function.

[0067] If the trailer is currently in a high roll and yaw attitude, i.e., the trailer roll and yaw attitude Tc value is 0.85 < Tc < 1, the lateral control proportional coefficient matrix ε is calculated based on the trailer's current driving attitude:

[0076] The trailer steering adjustment unit adjusts the active steering assist of the trailer according to different trailer tilt and yaw attitudes.

[0077] If the trailer is currently in a mid-tilt / yaw attitude, i.e., the trailer's tilt / yaw attitude Tc value is 0.55 < Tc < 0.85, the lateral control proportional coefficient matrix ε is calculated based on the trailer's current driving attitude.

[0078]

[0086] The trailer steering adjustment unit adjusts the active steering assist of the trailer according to different trailer tilt and yaw attitudes.

[0087] If the trailer is currently in a low roll and yaw attitude, i.e., the trailer roll and yaw attitude Tc value is 0 < Tc < 0.55, the lateral control proportional coefficient matrix ε is calculated based on the trailer's current driving attitude.

[0088]
