[0021] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more clearly understood, the present disclosure is further described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in the embodiments of the present disclosure should be understood by people with ordinary skills in the field to which the present disclosure belongs.

[0023] The terms used in this disclosure are explained as follows:

[0024] TCS: Traction Control System (TCS) is used to prevent the drive wheels from slipping and provide the vehicle with the best traction. It ensures the vehicle's stability and enables the vehicle to obtain the best traction under various driving conditions.

[0025] With the rapid development of vehicle technology, vehicles have become an important means of transportation in people's daily lives. During the use of vehicles, there may be a situation where the vehicle slips, especially in rainy and snowy weather, when the probability of the vehicle slipping due to wet road conditions is greatly increased. When the vehicle slips, it poses a great threat to the safety of the users on the vehicle, resulting in a significant reduction in driving safety.

[0026] Currently, when slip occurs and the slip rate is greater than a certain value, the TCS function can be triggered to suppress the vehicle's slip. However, since the slip rate control target corresponding to the TCS function is relatively high, when the vehicle has slipped but has not met the TCS function activation conditions, effective slip control cannot be achieved.

[0027] Based on the above description, this embodiment proposes a vehicle torque adjustment method, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0028] Step 101, under the condition that the vehicle traction control function is not activated, determine whether the front axle slip rate or the rear axle slip rate of the vehicle is greater than a preset slip rate threshold, and determine a target front and rear axle torque transfer slope based on the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate, wherein the preset slip rate threshold is a slip rate value when slip occurs and is less than the slip rate value corresponding to activating the vehicle traction control function.

[0029] During specific implementation, a preset slip rate threshold is set in advance. The preset slip rate threshold is a slip rate value when slip occurs and is less than the slip rate value corresponding to activating the vehicle traction control function. The preset slip rate threshold should be greater than a normal slip rate value when slip does not occur and less than the slip rate value corresponding to activating the vehicle traction control function to avoid conflicts or duplications with the TCS function.

[0030] The front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate of the vehicle are obtained, and it is determined whether the vehicle traction control function is activated based on the obtained data.

[0031] Specifically, if the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate are both greater than the preset slip rate threshold, that is, there is a dual-axle slip phenomenon, and at least one of the TCS front axle or rear axle is in the slip control activation state, then the activation conditions of the TCS function are met, and the TCS function is used to achieve vehicle slip control.

[0032] If the front axle slip ratio and / or the rear axle slip ratio is less than the preset slip ratio threshold, but the TCS is still in the slip control activation state, the activation condition of the TCS function is met and the vehicle slip control is implemented using the TCS function.

[0033] When it is determined that the vehicle traction control function is not activated, it is determined that the front axle slip rate or the rear axle slip rate of the vehicle is greater than a preset slip rate threshold, that is, there is a single-axle slip phenomenon under the condition that TCS is not activated. At this time, the target front and rear axle torque transfer slope is determined according to the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate. The target front and rear axle torque transfer slope represents the target ratio value of the vehicle's front and rear axle torque corresponding to the current front axle slip rate and rear axle slip rate.

[0034] Step 102 , obtaining the total torque of the vehicle, and determining the target front axle torque and the target rear axle torque according to the target front and rear axle torque transfer slope and the total torque.

[0035] In a specific implementation, the total torque of the vehicle is obtained, and the total torque is the torque value input by the driver. The total torque is multiplied by the target front and rear axle torque transfer slope to obtain the target front axle torque and the target rear axle torque of the vehicle.

[0036] Exemplarily, the target front and rear axle torque transfer slope is a ratio of 4:6 between the front axle and the rear axle. If the total torque is 200 N·m, the target front axle torque is 80 N·m and the target rear axle torque is 120 N·m.

[0037] Step 103, controlling the front axle torque of the vehicle to be adjusted to the target front axle torque, and controlling the rear axle torque of the vehicle to be adjusted to the target rear axle torque.

[0038] In specific implementation, after the target front axle torque and the target rear axle torque are determined, the front axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to the target front axle torque, and the rear axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to the target rear axle torque.

[0039] Based on the example of step 102, if the current front axle torque is 100 N·m, the current rear axle torque is 100 N·m, the target front axle torque is 80 N·m, and the target rear axle torque is 120 N·m, then the front axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to 80 N·m, and the rear axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to 120 N·m.

[0040] Through the above scheme, when the vehicle traction control function is not activated, the front axle slip rate or rear axle slip rate of the vehicle is greater than the preset slip rate threshold, indicating that the vehicle has slip phenomenon but has not yet reached the condition for activating the traction control function. By setting the preset slip rate threshold to the slip rate value corresponding to the existence of slip phenomenon and less than the slip rate value corresponding to activating the vehicle traction control function, the problem of conflict or duplication with the vehicle traction control function is avoided. The target front and rear axle torque transfer slope is determined according to the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate, and the target front and rear axle torque transfer slope is the torque ratio of the front and rear axles of the vehicle corresponding to eliminating the slip phenomenon. The total torque of the vehicle is obtained, and the target front axle torque and the target rear axle torque are determined according to the target front and rear axle torque transfer slope and the total torque. The front axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to the target front axle torque, and the rear axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to the target rear axle torque, that is, the front axle torque and the rear axle torque of the vehicle are adjusted according to the target front axle torque and the target rear axle torque, so as to alleviate the vehicle slip phenomenon when the vehicle slips but the traction control function has not been activated, thereby improving driving safety.

[0041] In some embodiments, step 101 specifically includes:

[0042] Step 1011, performing a difference process on the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate to obtain a difference value of the front and rear axle slip rates.

[0043] Step 1012, obtaining all historical front and rear axle slip rate differences corresponding to a preset period, and determining the front and rear axle slip rate difference change rate according to the historical front and rear axle slip rate differences.

[0044] Step 1013: determining a target front and rear axle torque transfer slope according to the front and rear axle slip rate difference and the front and rear axle slip rate difference change rate.

[0045] In specific implementation, the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate are subjected to difference processing, that is, the difference between the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate is calculated to obtain the front and rear axle slip rate difference. All historical front and rear axle slip rate differences corresponding to a preset number of preset cycles before the current cycle are obtained, and the front and rear axle slip rate difference change rate is determined according to the historical front and rear axle slip rate differences.

[0046] Exemplarily, historical front and rear axle slip rate differences of two consecutive cycles before the current cycle are obtained, and the front and rear axle slip rate difference change rate is determined according to the two historical front and rear axle slip rate differences and the front and rear axle slip rate difference of the current cycle.

[0047] The correspondence between the front and rear axle slip rate difference and the front and rear axle slip rate difference change rate and the front and rear axle torque transfer slope is pre-stored, and the form of the correspondence may include at least one of the following: a relationship table, a function relationship, a curve relationship, a key-value pair relationship, and a bar graph relationship.

[0048] The target front and rear axle torque transfer slope is determined by searching according to the front and rear axle slip rate difference and the front and rear axle slip rate difference change rate. The corresponding relationship is specifically that the torque is transferred to the side with lower slip rate. The greater the front and rear axle slip rate difference and the greater the front and rear axle slip rate difference change rate, the greater the torque transfer slope, that is, the faster the torque is transferred.

[0049] Through the above scheme, the corresponding target front and rear axle torque transfer slope is determined by the slip rate difference between the front and rear axles and the rate of change of the slip rate difference. The actual slip rate of the current front and rear axles and the recent change in slip rate are comprehensively considered. The target front and rear axle torque transfer slope is determined more accurately.

[0050] In some embodiments, a front axle torque threshold and a rear axle torque threshold are pre-stored, wherein the front axle torque threshold represents the maximum value and the minimum value of the front axle torque, and the rear axle torque threshold represents the maximum value and the minimum value of the rear axle torque. In this embodiment, the front axle torque threshold and the rear axle torque threshold can be calibrated according to the actual vehicle design target.

[0051] In some embodiments, the process of controlling the front axle torque of the vehicle to be adjusted to the target front axle torque and controlling the rear axle torque of the vehicle to be adjusted to the target rear axle torque specifically includes:

[0052] Step a, in response to the vehicle front axle torque reaching a preset front axle torque threshold, and / or the vehicle rear axle torque reaching a preset rear axle torque threshold, stopping adjusting the vehicle front axle torque and the vehicle rear axle torque.

[0053] In specific implementation, when the front axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to the target front axle torque, and the rear axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to the target rear axle torque, if either the front axle torque or the rear axle torque reaches the preset torque threshold, the adjustment of the front axle torque and the rear axle torque of the vehicle will be stopped immediately, and the current torque ratio value will be maintained.

[0054] Specifically, it includes the following situations: the front axle torque reaches the maximum front axle torque, the front axle torque reaches the minimum front axle torque, the rear axle torque reaches the maximum rear axle torque, and the rear axle torque reaches the minimum rear axle torque.

[0055] Through the above scheme, the torque thresholds corresponding to the front axle and the rear axle are pre-set. During the adjustment process, if the torque threshold is reached, the adjustment is stopped immediately to avoid the problem of excessive or insufficient front axle torque or rear axle torque, which leads to reduced safety, thereby further improving driving safety.

[0056] In some embodiments, the process of controlling the front axle torque of the vehicle to be adjusted to the target front axle torque and controlling the rear axle torque of the vehicle to be adjusted to the target rear axle torque also includes:

[0057] Step 10A: in response to the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate of the vehicle being greater than a preset slip rate threshold during the adjustment process, determining the torque transfer direction.

[0058] Step 10B: determining a target stability factor according to the torque transfer direction.

[0059] Step 10C: multiplying the target stability factor by the target front and rear axle torque transfer slope to obtain a new target front and rear axle torque transfer slope.

[0060] Step 10D, determining a new target front axle torque and a new target rear axle torque according to the new target front and rear axle torque transfer slope and the total torque, controlling the vehicle's front axle torque to adjust to the new target front axle torque, and controlling the vehicle's rear axle torque to adjust to the new target rear axle torque.

[0061] In specific implementation, during the adjustment process, the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate of the vehicle are monitored in real time. If the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate are both greater than the preset slip rate threshold during the adjustment process, it indicates that the vehicle has a dual-axle slip phenomenon, and the torque transfer direction is determined, wherein the torque transfer direction refers to which axle the torque is transferred to, including the axle with less adhesion between the front axle and the rear axle or the axle with greater adhesion between the front axle and the rear axle.

[0062] Different torque transfer directions correspond to different stability factors, and the target stability factor is determined according to the torque transfer direction. The target stability factor is multiplied by the target front and rear axle torque transfer slope to obtain a new target front and rear axle torque transfer slope.

[0063] The total torque is multiplied by the new target front and rear axle torque transfer slope to obtain the new target front axle torque and the new target rear axle torque of the vehicle. The front axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to the new target front axle torque, and the rear axle torque of the vehicle is controlled to be adjusted to the new target rear axle torque.

[0064] Through the above scheme, during the process of torque transfer between the front and rear axles in single-axis slip, double-axis slip occurs. At this time, a stability factor is designed to prevent the slip rate of the axle with low adhesion from suddenly increasing, causing TCS to intervene prematurely.

[0065] In some embodiments, determining the torque transfer direction in step 10A includes:

[0066] Step 10A1: determining a torque transfer state according to the front axle slip ratio and the rear axle slip ratio.

[0067] Step 10A2, obtaining the front axle load, the rear axle load and the road adhesion coefficient of the road on which the vehicle is located, and determining the front axle adhesion and the rear axle adhesion according to the front axle load, the rear axle load and the road adhesion coefficient.

[0068] Step 10A3, in response to the torque transfer state being the front axle transferring to the rear axle and the front axle adhesion being greater than the rear axle adhesion, or the torque transfer state being the rear axle transferring to the front axle and the front axle adhesion being less than the rear axle adhesion, determining the torque transfer direction to be the axle with less adhesion.

[0069] or,

[0070] Step 10A4, in response to the torque transfer state being the front axle transferring to the rear axle and the front axle adhesion being less than the rear axle adhesion, or the torque transfer state being the rear axle transferring to the front axle and the front axle adhesion being greater than the rear axle adhesion, determining the torque transfer direction to be the axle with greater adhesion.

[0071] In a specific implementation, the torque transfer state is determined according to the front axle slip ratio and the rear axle slip ratio, specifically, the torque is transferred to the side with smaller slip ratio.

[0072] For example, if the front axle slip rate is 15% and the rear axle slip rate is 20%, the torque transfer state is from the rear axle to the front axle.

[0073] The corresponding relationship between the front and rear axle loads and the road adhesion coefficient and the front and rear axle adhesion is pre-stored, the front axle load, the rear axle load and the road adhesion coefficient of the road where the vehicle is located are obtained, and the front axle adhesion and the rear axle adhesion are determined by searching according to the front axle load, the rear axle load and the road adhesion coefficient.

[0074] Compare the magnitude relationship between the front axle adhesion and the rear axle adhesion. If the torque transfer state is from the front axle to the rear axle and the front axle adhesion is greater than the rear axle adhesion, it means that the torque transfer direction is to the axle with less adhesion.

[0075] If the torque transfer state is that the rear axle is transferred to the front axle and the front axle adhesion is less than the rear axle adhesion, it means that the torque transfer direction is to transfer to the axle with less adhesion.

[0076] If the torque transfer state is from the front axle to the rear axle and the front axle adhesion is less than the rear axle adhesion, it means that the torque transfer direction is to the axle with greater adhesion.

[0077] If the torque transfer state is from the rear axle to the front axle and the front axle adhesion is greater than the rear axle adhesion, it means that the torque transfer direction is to the axle with greater adhesion.

[0078] In some embodiments, step 10B specifically includes:

[0079] Step 10B1, in response to the torque transfer direction being towards the axle with less adhesion, the front axle adhesion and the rear axle adhesion are subtracted to obtain an adhesion difference, and a target stability factor is determined according to the adhesion difference, wherein the target stability factor is less than a first threshold.

[0080] or,

[0081] Step 10B2, in response to the torque transfer direction being transferred toward the shaft with greater adhesion, determining the target stability factor to be a first threshold.

[0082] In specific implementation, if the torque transfer direction is to transfer to the axle with less adhesion, the corresponding target stability factor needs to be determined according to the adhesion difference between the front and rear axles. Specifically, the difference between the front axle adhesion and the rear axle adhesion is calculated to obtain the adhesion difference.

[0083] A correspondence between the adhesion difference and the stability factor is pre-stored, wherein the larger the adhesion difference, the smaller the stability factor. A target stability factor is obtained according to the determined adhesion difference, wherein the target stability factor is less than a first threshold.

[0084] If the torque transfer direction is to the axis with greater adhesion, the target stability factor is determined to be a constant value, which is taken as the first threshold value.

[0085] In this embodiment, the first threshold is 1, that is, when the torque transfer direction is to the axis with less adhesion, the value of the target stability factor is greater than 0 and less than 1. When the torque transfer direction is to the axis with greater adhesion, the value of the target stability factor is 1.

[0086] Through the above scheme, corresponding target stability factors are designed for different torque transfer directions, so that the new target front and rear axle torque transfer slope obtained subsequently is more accurate, and the new target front axle torque and the new target rear axle torque determined are more consistent with the current vehicle condition.

[0087] In some embodiments, the process of controlling the front axle torque of the vehicle to be adjusted to the target front axle torque and controlling the rear axle torque of the vehicle to be adjusted to the target rear axle torque also includes:

[0088] Step 10a, in response to the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate of the vehicle being greater than a preset slip rate threshold and lasting for a duration greater than a preset duration during the adjustment process, outputting a target flag, wherein the target flag is used to prompt that the vehicle traction control function is activated.

[0089] In specific implementation, during the adjustment process, the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate of the vehicle are monitored in real time. If the front axle slip rate and the rear axle slip rate are both greater than the preset slip rate threshold during the adjustment process, and the duration of the dual-axle slip phenomenon is greater than the preset duration, it means that the vehicle has stably dual-axle slip, indicating that torque transfer is not enough to ensure that the vehicle slip rate is fully controlled.

[0090] At this time, the target flag is output to inform the TCS function to activate and take over the current scene. The target flag is the slipboth flag, indicating that both the front and rear axles have reached the slip control limit state corresponding to the vehicle torque regulation method described in this embodiment.

[0091] Through the above scheme, when it is determined that the torque cannot be controlled any further, a flag is output to realize the interaction between the vehicle torque adjustment method described in this embodiment and the TCS function, so that the two can switch smoothly to provide good driving comfort and slip control effect.

[0092] Based on the same inventive concept, another embodiment of the present disclosure provides a vehicle torque adjustment method, which specifically includes:

[0093] Determine the slip rate control targets of the front and rear axles of this embodiment, which are determined based on the actual vehicle. However, both targets are lower than the slip rate target that the TCS function needs to control, to avoid duplication or conflict between the slip rate control target of this embodiment and the TCS slip rate target;

[0094] Determine that TCS is in an activated state and suppress the slip rate control activation state in the method of this embodiment: If both the front and rear axles are in a slip state (the slip rates are both greater than the slip rate target determined in the method of this embodiment) and at least one of the TCS front axle or rear axle is in a slip control activation state, then the TCS is in an activated control state while the slip rate control is suppressed in the method of this embodiment, and the method of this embodiment is not activated.

[0095] If the front and rear axle slip ratios are not greater than the slip ratio targets determined in the method of this embodiment, but TCS is still in the slip control activation state, then TCS activation control continues, and the method of this embodiment does not intervene. It ensures that the working conditions with large slip ratios that cannot be eliminated by front and rear axle torque transfer are only controlled by TCS, and the robustness of TCS exit is guaranteed; it can ensure that the responsibilities of TCS and the slip ratio control in the method of this embodiment are clear and handed over to each other in a timely manner.

[0096] If the activation conditions corresponding to TCS are not met, it is determined whether there is a single-axis slip phenomenon. If not, the front and rear axle torque and distribution ratio input by the driver will not be changed.

[0097] If there is single-axle slip, the front and rear axle torque transfer slope is determined according to the front and rear axle slip rate difference and the rate of change of the front and rear axle slip rate difference. Specifically, the torque is transferred to the side with lower slip rate. The greater the front and rear axle slip rate difference and the greater the rate of change of the front and rear axle slip rate difference, the greater the torque transfer slope, that is, the faster the torque is transferred.

[0098] The maximum and minimum values ​​of the torque transfer are determined, and the maximum and minimum values ​​are determined according to the actual vehicle design objectives. When the maximum or minimum value of the torque of any of the front and rear axles reaches the limit value during the torque transfer process, the torque transfer is stopped immediately and the current torque ratio value is maintained.

[0099] During the torque transfer process of the front and rear axles with single-axis slip, if both axles slip during the torque transfer process, the axle adhesion of the front and rear wheels is determined based on the front and rear axle loads and the road adhesion coefficient. If the driving torque is transferred to the axle with less adhesion at this time, the stability factor is determined based on the difference in adhesion between the front and rear axles. Specifically, the greater the difference in ability, the smaller the stability factor. The stability factor is a value between 0 and 1. The torque transfer slope of each cycle should be multiplied by this stability factor to prevent the TCS from intervening too early due to a sudden increase in the slip rate of the axle with less adhesion.

[0100] If the driving torque is transferred to the shaft with greater adhesion at this time, the stability factor should be fixed to 1, that is, the original torque transfer slope will not be changed.

[0101] If the current rear axle slip rate exceeds the slip rate control target determined in the method of this embodiment and is maintained for a preset number of cycles, it is considered that torque transfer is insufficient to ensure that the vehicle slip rate is fully controlled, and the slipboth flag is issued, that is, the front and rear axles have reached the slip control limit state in the method of this embodiment. This flag is used to determine whether TCS is activated and whether it is suppressed in the method of this embodiment.
