Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of vehicle control technology, and in particular to a method, device, equipment and medium for preventing impact of vehicle air suspension. Background Art
[0002] In the field of special-purpose vehicles, such as split-body dump trucks and wire-pulled sanitation tankers, the vehicle's axle load can experience sudden, instantaneous increases when loading and unloading integral cargo. This load is typically transmitted through the vehicle frame to the suspension, then from the suspension to the axle, and finally to the ground through the tires. For vehicles with air suspension, this load transfer process can cause excessive deformation of the air suspension due to the inherent stiffness of the air spring. This can lead to premature failure of the airbag during use, causing inconvenience and financial losses for customers.
[0003] Most air suspension vehicles currently on the market use passive air suspension systems, which generally lack measures to mitigate the impact on the airbags during sudden load changes. Due to the inherent flaws in the air spring stiffness characteristics of passive air suspensions, coupled with the mismatch between airbag stiffness and vehicle parameters, the airbags can experience excessive instantaneous deformation during load transfers or sudden changes, causing excessive pull on the airbags and premature damage to the airbags. Air suspension vehicles primarily use height control to cope with load changes, but this fails to fundamentally reduce the impact on the airbags through airbag deformation and extend their service life. Air suspension vehicles on the market that experience load center shifts and sudden load changes during loading and unloading generally experience abnormal wear and premature failure of the suspension airbags. Summary of the Invention

[0038] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0039] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0040] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for preventing impact of a vehicle air suspension.
[0041] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flow chart of the first embodiment of the method for preventing impact of vehicle air suspension in this application. Figure 1 As shown, the method for preventing impact of vehicle air suspension includes:
[0042] Step S101: upon receiving a loading start signal or an unloading start signal from a vehicle, determining whether the vehicle state satisfies a condition for starting an air suspension anti-shock operation.
[0043] Step S102: If the vehicle state satisfies the conditions for activating the air suspension anti-impact operation, the preset telescopic support arm is controlled to extend to form a support between the frame cross member and the axle housing, so that the impact load caused by loading or unloading is transferred between the frame cross member, the telescopic support arm and the axle housing.
[0044] It's worth noting that vehicle superstructures refer to additional loading equipment or structures equipped on a vehicle to accomplish specific transport or operational tasks. When a loading or unloading start signal is received from the superstructure, indicating the vehicle is about to be loaded or unloaded, a pre-set telescopic support arm extends between the frame crossmember and the axle housing to form support, increasing the stress points between the frame and axle, thereby locking the spatial distance between the frame and axle. This allows the load during loading or unloading to be transferred between the frame and axle, rather than through the air suspension. This reduces the impact of loading and unloading loads on the air suspension, thereby preventing premature damage to the air suspension's airbags and springs.
[0045] The method for preventing the vehicle air suspension from impact in this embodiment can be as follows: Figure 2The vehicle air suspension anti-shock system shown is implemented in this system. The system includes an operating system, a control system, and an execution system. The operating system, after the operator activates a signal or switch to activate the superstructure according to vehicle loading or unloading requirements, transmits loading and unloading signals to the control system. The control system determines whether to execute the operating system's signal response based on vehicle status information and pre-set safety control strategies. When the vehicle meets the requirements, the control system sends a signal to the execution system's motor, which controls a hydraulic pump to extend or retract the telescopic support arm. This allows the telescopic support arm to absorb sudden loads transmitted from the superstructure through the vehicle frame, which would otherwise be borne by the air suspension. This reduces the impact of sudden loads on the air suspension. This modifies the stiffness of the air suspension system, preventing impacts from sudden loads on the air suspension during loading or unloading, reducing abnormal stretching of the air suspension, and ultimately extending the air suspension's service life.
[0046] The vehicle air suspension anti-shock method of the present application is described below in conjunction with the vehicle air suspension anti-shock system.
[0047] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the determination of whether the vehicle state satisfies the conditions for activating the air suspension anti-impact operation includes: if the vehicle speed is zero, the air suspension height is within a preset height range, and the communication signal between the execution system for controlling the telescopic support arm to extend and retract and the corresponding control system is in a valid state, then it is determined that the vehicle state satisfies the conditions for activating the air suspension anti-impact operation; if the vehicle speed is greater than zero, the air suspension height exceeds the height range, or the communication signal between the execution system for controlling the telescopic support arm to extend and retract and the corresponding control system is in an invalid state, then it is determined that the vehicle state does not satisfy the conditions for activating the air suspension anti-impact operation.
[0048] Exemplarily, the operator sends a signal to start loading or unloading the upper body through a rocker switch or a knob in the operating system. The signal is sent to the upper body controller and transmitted to the control system of the present application at the same time.
[0049] After receiving a loading start signal or unloading start signal from the operating system, the control system detects the vehicle's speed signal and determines whether the speed is zero to determine whether the vehicle is stationary. It also detects the air suspension height signal and determines whether the air suspension height is within a preset range. The air suspension height has three states: a calibrated first height, a second height, and a freely adjustable height. If the air suspension height is adjusted above the maximum height within the range during the freely adjustable state, the telescopic support arm may not contact the axle housing, thus failing to reduce impact on the air suspension. The control system also monitors the validity of the communication signal between the control system and the actuator system, which is a CAN signal between the control system and the actuator system. If the vehicle speed is zero, the suspension height is within the range, and the communication signal has not timed out, the control system issues a control command to drive the actuator system's motor to control the hydraulic pump, causing the telescopic support arm to extend and form support between the frame cross member and the axle housing.
[0050] In one embodiment, controlling a pre-installed telescopic support arm to extend to form a support between the frame crossbeam and the axle housing includes: controlling a pre-installed telescopic support arm on the frame crossbeam to extend to directly contact the axle housing to form a support between the frame crossbeam and the axle housing, such as Figure 3 shown.
[0051] Preferably, when controlling the preset telescopic support arm to extend to form a support between the frame crossbeam and the axle housing, the telescopic support arm pre-placed on the frame crossbeam can also be controlled to extend to directly contact the support pad provided on the axle housing, thereby forming indirect contact with the axle housing to form a support between the frame crossbeam and the axle housing, thereby avoiding deformation of the axle housing. Figure 4 shown.
[0052] In one embodiment, when the pressure between the telescopic support arm and the axle housing is greater than 0, it indicates that the telescopic support arm is in contact with the axle, and the telescopic support arm is controlled to stop extending to avoid excessive pressure on the axle housing by the telescopic support arm when loading cargo, causing deformation of the axle housing.
[0053] Preferably, when controlling the preset telescopic support arm to extend to form support between the frame cross member and the axle housing, the telescopic support arm can be controlled to complete the extension operation within a first time period. In this embodiment, the first time period is set to 5 seconds, that is, the controller controls the telescopic arm to complete the extension operation within less than 5 seconds. The first time period is calibrated based on the speed of loading and unloading. The faster the loading and unloading speed, the shorter the first time period. This ensures that the telescopic support arm can be extended to form support in a timely manner after receiving the loading start signal. This avoids the situation where the telescopic support arm fails to contact the support pad or the axle housing due to slow extension speed when the upper load suddenly changes, and fails to effectively prevent impact on the air suspension when the load suddenly changes.
[0054] Explanatory note: the principle of preventing the impact of sudden changes in the load on the vehicle air suspension by the anti-impact method of the vehicle air suspension of this embodiment is as follows:
[0055] After the telescopic support arm, attached to the frame crossmember, extends and contacts the axle housing, the load transfer path changes from superstructure → subframe → frame longitudinal member → air suspension → axle housing → tire → ground to superstructure → subframe → frame longitudinal member → actuator telescopic support arm → axle housing → tire → ground. This means the load no longer passes through the air suspension. Because the telescopic support arm and the axle housing are in rigid contact, deformation does not occur during sudden load changes, minimizing the impact of sudden loads on the air suspension, reducing abnormal stretching, and extending the life of the air suspension.
[0056] In one embodiment, when the telescopic support arm is in an extended state, it is determined whether the power supply of the entire vehicle is turned off; if the power supply of the entire vehicle is not turned off and the vehicle speed is greater than zero and maintained for a second time period, the telescopic support arm is controlled to retract so that the vehicle load is transferred between the frame cross member, the air suspension and the axle housing; if the power supply of the entire vehicle is turned off, the telescopic support arm is controlled to maintain the current extended state, and the telescopic support arm is controlled to retract after the power supply of the entire vehicle is turned on again; wherein, the time length for controlling the telescopic support arm to complete the retraction operation is greater than or equal to a preset third time period.
[0057] It is worth noting that both the second time length and the third time length can be calibrated according to the actual situation of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the third time length is set to 10 seconds.
[0058] Exemplary, such as Figure 5 As shown, when the telescopic support arm is in the extended state, after the vehicle is loaded or unloaded, the control system automatically identifies the state of the vehicle.
[0059] When the vehicle system power is not turned off (i.e., the ignition key is in the ON position) after loading or unloading, and the vehicle is in direct driving mode, the control system detects that the vehicle speed is greater than zero (or other calibrated speed) and maintained for the second time period. The control system will send a command to the actuator system to retract the telescopic support arm to avoid poor comfort caused by the lack of suspension system shock absorption during vehicle operation and collision damage to the actuator and axle. The telescopic support arm is also controlled to fully retract for a time period greater than or equal to the third time period (i.e., the telescopic support arm fully retracted time is ≥ 10 seconds) to prevent the telescopic support arm from suddenly retracting and completely losing support, which would cause the cargo to impact the suspension.
[0060] When the vehicle is loaded or unloaded, the vehicle system power is turned off (i.e., the ignition key is in OFF position), and the execution system does not operate the telescopic arm. When the vehicle system power is powered on again the next time, the control system sends the telescopic arm retraction command by default to avoid poor comfort caused by the lack of suspension system shock absorption during vehicle operation and collision damage to the actuator and axle.
[0061] The present invention provides a method for preventing impacts on vehicle air suspensions. The method comprises installing a retractable rigid telescopic support arm on the chassis frame, which, when extended, can directly or indirectly contact the axle housing. The method automatically recognizes a loading start signal or unloading start signal from a customer's operation, and in conjunction with information about a sudden load on the load, extends the telescopic support arm in advance to rigidly contact the axle housing, thereby carrying the sudden load on the load. The device automatically detects the completion of loading and unloading based on vehicle speed and automatically retracts the telescopic support arm upon completion, thereby preventing the lack of suspension shock absorption during vehicle operation, which affects vehicle comfort, and extending the service life of the telescopic support arm and the axle. The telescopic support arm achieves rigid contact through adaptive extension and retraction of the telescopic support arm and the axle, thereby preventing impacts on the air suspension caused by sudden load changes during loading and unloading, and preventing premature damage to the air suspension caused by abnormal stretching. The method is not only applicable to air suspension vehicles, but also has reference value and significance for trucks with other leaf springs and composite suspensions, preventing premature damage to the springs due to impacts.
[0062] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application also provides a device for preventing impact of a vehicle air suspension.

[0068] If the vehicle speed is greater than zero, the air suspension height exceeds the height range, or the communication signal between the execution system for controlling the extension and retraction of the telescopic support arm and the corresponding control system is invalid, it is determined that the vehicle state does not meet the conditions for starting the air suspension anti-impact operation.
[0069] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the control module is further configured to control a telescopic support arm pre-placed on the frame crossbeam to extend and directly contact the axle housing, so as to form support between the frame crossbeam and the axle housing.
[0070] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the control module is also used to: control the telescopic support arm pre-positioned on the frame crossbeam to extend and directly contact the support pad provided on the axle housing, and form indirect contact with the axle housing to form support between the frame crossbeam and the axle housing.
[0071] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the control module is further configured to:
[0072] When the pressure between the telescopic support arm and the axle housing is greater than 0, the telescopic support arm is controlled to stop extending.
