[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are 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 the present invention.

[0032] As a new type of transportation, the safety of the braking system of electric vehicles is of vital importance. The braking system of electric vehicles usually includes front axle air reservoirs and rear axle air reservoirs for storing compressed air. When the driver steps on the brake pedal, the compressed air in the air reservoir is transported to the brake element through the pipeline to generate braking force. At the same time, the vehicle control unit (VCU) can monitor the air pressure of the air reservoir in real time through the air pressure sensor, so as to promptly detect and deal with the leakage of the vehicle pipeline or brake element.

[0033] However, although the relevant technology can monitor the operating status of the vehicle, when the braking system fails, it is often impossible to take protective measures in a timely and effective manner, thereby increasing the safety risks of the vehicle and the people inside the vehicle.

[0034] Based on this, a pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake drive protection control method and device provided in an embodiment of the present invention can obtain the first air pressure of the front axle outlet and the second air pressure of the rear axle outlet of the electric vehicle, determine whether the electric vehicle is leaking based on the first air pressure and the second air pressure, and if the electric vehicle is leaking, determine the type and rate of the leak, and limit the power of the electric vehicle based on the type and rate of the leak to protect the electric vehicle. In this way, the power of the electric vehicle is limited by the type and rate of the leak, which improves the safety of the vehicle and the people in the vehicle and reduces the safety risk.

[0035] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a driving protection control method for a pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention is first introduced in detail.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] The embodiment of the present invention provides a driving protection control method of a pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake, which is applied to electric vehicles. Figure 1 The present invention provides a flow chart of a driving protection control method for a pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake. Figure 1 As shown, the driving protection control method of the pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake may include the following steps:

[0038] Step S101, obtaining a first air pressure of a front axle outlet and a second air pressure of a rear axle outlet of the electric vehicle.

[0039] Among them, the electric vehicle may include an air pressure sensor, and the air pressure sensor is used to collect the air pressure of the front axle outlet bag and the air pressure of the rear axle outlet bag. The model of the air pressure sensor may be PT100.

[0040] Step S102, determining whether the electric vehicle has an air leak based on the first air pressure and the second air pressure.

[0041] Among them, the difference between the first air pressure and the second air pressure can be determined. When the difference exceeds the normal range, it is considered that the electric vehicle is leaking. If the difference does not exceed the normal range, the difference between the first air pressure before the electric vehicle is started and the second air pressure before the electric vehicle is started is determined. When the difference exceeds the normal range, it is considered that the electric vehicle is leaking.

[0042] Step S103: if the electric vehicle has a gas leak, determine the type and rate of the gas leak.

[0043] Specifically, if the electric vehicle has at least one of fuel pipe leakage, lubricating oil pipe leakage, cooling pipe leakage and power steering oil pipe leakage, the leakage type is vehicle pipeline leakage; if the electric vehicle has at least one of brake pump leakage, brake pad leakage and brake pipe leakage, the leakage type is brake pipe leakage.

[0044] Among them, the leakage mode of the electric vehicle can be determined by a device with a leakage detection function, and can also be determined by manual detection.

[0045] In the case of manual inspection, for leaks in the vehicle pipeline, the specific location of the leak must be determined first, such as by observation, listening, applying soapy water, and using professional testing instruments. You can observe whether there are obvious oil stains, stains, or signs of damage on the surface of the pipeline; when the electric car is stationary, listen carefully for the sound of gas leakage; apply soapy water to the suspected leaking part to observe whether bubbles are generated; accurately locate the leak through a gas leak detector, etc. For brake line leaks, first check whether the various components of the brake system, such as brake pads, brake pumps, brake lines, etc., are intact, and pay special attention to checking whether the brake lines have cracks, wear, or poor connections. You can also use observation, listening, applying soapy water, and using professional testing instruments to determine the leak location.

[0046] Specifically, determining the leakage rate may include: determining the time interval between the time when the leakage starts and the current time; determining the amount of pressure drop per unit time based on the difference between the first air pressure and the second air pressure, and the time interval; and using the amount of pressure drop as the leakage rate.

[0047] Step S104: limiting the power of the electric vehicle based on the leakage type and leakage rate to protect the driving of the electric vehicle.

[0048] Among them, when air leakage occurs, if the leakage rate is too high, it is considered to affect the driving safety of the electric vehicle. In the case of air leakage, it is usually necessary to deal with the leakage location.

[0049] For example, when the fuel pipe leaks, since fuel is a flammable substance and there are serious safety hazards, the vehicle should be stopped from use immediately and professional maintenance personnel should be contacted for repairs; when the lubricating oil pipe leaks, the lubricating oil will be lost, affecting the lubrication effect of mechanical parts, so the lubricating oil pipe should be checked for aging, wear or looseness, and replaced or tightened in time; when the cooling line leaks, the cooling effect of the engine will be affected and the engine will overheat, so the cooling line should be checked for cracks, looseness or poor connection, and repaired in time; when the brake pump leaks, the sealing performance of the brake pump should be checked for good, and the brake pump should be replaced if necessary; when the brake pad leaks, check whether the brake pad is severely worn or improperly installed, and whether the brake cylinder is leaking. If necessary, the brake pad should be replaced or the brake cylinder should be repaired; when the brake line leaks, the condition of the brake line should be checked, and the damaged parts should be replaced or repaired in time.

[0050] Nevertheless, there may still be a situation where it is impossible to stop the vehicle for maintenance due to a gas leak. In this case, it is necessary to limit the power to the most appropriate range according to the impact of different gas leak modes on the electric vehicle, so as to ensure that the electric vehicle can reach a parking position quickly and safely.

[0051] The driving protection control method of the pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake provided in the embodiment of the present invention can obtain the first air pressure of the front axle air outlet of the electric vehicle and the second air pressure of the rear axle air outlet, determine whether the electric vehicle is leaking based on the first air pressure and the second air pressure, and if the electric vehicle is leaking, determine the type and rate of the leak, and limit the power of the electric vehicle based on the type and rate of the leak to protect the driving of the electric vehicle. In this way, the power of the electric vehicle is limited by the type and rate of the leak, which improves the safety of the vehicle and the people in the vehicle and reduces the safety risk.

[0052] Example 2

[0053] An embodiment of the present invention also provides another drive protection control method for pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic braking; this method is implemented on the basis of the method in the above embodiment; this method focuses on describing the specific implementation method of determining whether an electric vehicle is leaking based on the first air pressure and the second air pressure.

[0054] Figure 2A flowchart of another driving protection control method of a pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the method of determining whether the electric vehicle has a gas leak based on the first gas pressure and the second gas pressure may include the following steps:

[0055] Step S201, obtaining an initial first air pressure of a front axle air outlet and an initial second air pressure of a rear axle air outlet when the electric vehicle is started.

[0056] It should be noted that before the electric vehicle is started, there may be a difference in the air pressure of the front axle outlet bag and the air pressure of the rear axle outlet bag. Therefore, the difference in air pressure between the front and rear axle outlet bags cannot be used as the basis for judging whether there is a leak.

[0057] Step S202, determining a first difference between an initial first air pressure and an initial second air pressure.

[0058] The initial first air pressure and the initial second air pressure are subtracted to obtain a first difference.

[0059] Step S203, determining a second difference between the first air pressure and the second air pressure.

[0060] The first air pressure is subtracted from the second air pressure to obtain a second difference value.

[0061] Step S204: determining whether the electric vehicle has an air leak based on the first difference and the second difference.

[0062] Specifically, determining whether the electric vehicle is leaking air based on the first difference and the second difference may include: if the second difference is greater than a preset first air pressure threshold, determining that the electric vehicle is leaking air; if the second difference is less than or equal to the first air pressure threshold, determining whether the difference between the first difference and the second difference is greater than the preset second air pressure threshold; if the difference between the first difference and the second difference is greater than the second air pressure threshold, determining that the electric vehicle is leaking air.

[0063] When the first difference exceeds the normal range, that is, exceeds the first pressure threshold, it can be considered that the electric vehicle is leaking. When the difference between the first difference and the second difference exceeds the normal range, that is, exceeds the second pressure threshold, it can be considered that the electric vehicle is leaking.

[0064] The driving protection control method for pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic braking provided in an embodiment of the present invention can determine whether an electric vehicle has an air leak through a first difference and a second difference, thereby improving the accuracy of air leak detection. Furthermore, when an electric vehicle is determined to have an air leak, corresponding power limitations are adopted, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle and the people inside the vehicle and reducing safety risks.

[0065] Example 3

[0066] An embodiment of the present invention also provides another drive protection control method for pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic braking; this method is implemented on the basis of the method in the above embodiment; this method focuses on describing the specific implementation method of limiting the power of an electric vehicle based on the leakage type and leakage rate.

[0067] Figure 3a A flowchart of another driving protection control method of a pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 3a As shown, the power of the electric vehicle is limited based on the leakage type and leakage rate, and the steps may include:

[0068] Step S301, determining the air leakage weight of the electric vehicle based on the air leakage type.

[0069] Specifically, determining the leakage weight of an electric vehicle based on the leakage type may include: determining at least one leakage mode of the electric vehicle included in the leakage type; assigning values ​​to the at least one leakage mode respectively to obtain initial leakage weights corresponding to various leakage modes; and adding the initial leakage weights to obtain the leakage weight.

[0070] Among them, since each leakage mode has different influences on the electric vehicle, different importance coefficients can be set for different leakage modes, that is, assigned as the initial leakage weight of the leakage mode. When the electric vehicle has only one leakage mode, the initial leakage weight is used as the leakage weight; when the electric vehicle has multiple leakage modes, the initial leakage weights of the multiple leakage modes are added together to obtain the leakage weight.

[0071] Step S302: determining a leakage rate threshold corresponding to the leakage weight based on a preset mapping relationship.

[0072] The greater the leakage weight, the greater the impact on the safety of the electric vehicle, and therefore the higher the requirement for the leakage rate, that is, the greater the leakage weight, the smaller the leakage rate threshold. The mapping relationship between the leakage weight and the leakage rate threshold can be preset.

[0073] Step S303: if the leakage rate meets the leakage rate threshold, the power of the electric vehicle is limited.

[0074] Specifically, limiting the power of the electric vehicle may include: determining a torque limit of a motor of the electric vehicle based on a current speed of the electric vehicle; and limiting the power by the torque limit of the motor.

[0075] Among them, determining the torque limit of the motor of the electric vehicle based on the current vehicle speed of the electric vehicle may include: if the current vehicle speed is within a pre-set first interval, no restriction is imposed on the torque limit; if the current vehicle speed is within a pre-set second interval, the torque limit is set to one quarter; if the current vehicle speed is within a pre-set third interval, the torque limit is set to one half.

[0076] Among them, the motor is a permanent magnet synchronous motor with a maximum power of 420kW and a peak torque of 2800N·m.

[0077] Furthermore, the electric vehicle may also include a display instrument. Before limiting the power of the electric vehicle, a gas leakage indicator of the electric vehicle may be activated. While limiting the power of the electric vehicle, corresponding fault information may be displayed in the display instrument.

[0078] For ease of understanding, Figure 3b A driving protection control logic diagram of a pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 3b As shown, during the driving of the electric vehicle, the VCU monitors the first air pressure of the front axle air outlet and the second air pressure of the rear axle air outlet through the air pressure sensor. After confirming the air leakage, the type of air leakage is determined by a device with an air leakage detection function, and the corresponding air leakage rate threshold is determined by the air leakage type. When the air leakage rate of the electric vehicle is greater than or equal to the corresponding air leakage rate threshold, the air leakage mark of the electric vehicle is activated, and when the air leakage rate is less than the corresponding air leakage rate threshold, no processing is performed; after activating the air leakage mark of the electric vehicle, the VCU transmits the information to the display instrument through the CAN line, so that the fault information is displayed on the display instrument; at the same time, the VCU forwards the torque limit value through the CAN line according to the current speed of the electric vehicle, the shift controller controls the motor controller to limit the power, and the motor executes the power limit, thereby improving the overall safety of the electric vehicle, thereby protecting the safety of occupants and pedestrians.

[0079] Among them, when the current vehicle speed is within 0-30km / h, the torque limit is not restricted; when the current vehicle speed is within 31-60km / h, the torque limit is one-fourth; when the current vehicle speed is greater than 600km / h, the torque limit is one-half.

[0080] The driving protection control method for pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic braking provided in an embodiment of the present invention can limit the power of an electric vehicle by leakage type and leakage rate, so that different leakage weights correspond to different leakage rate thresholds, so as to limit the power of the electric vehicle, avoid the acceleration of the leakage rate, thereby improving the overall safety of the electric vehicle and reducing safety risks.

[0081] Example 4

[0082] Corresponding to the above method embodiment, the embodiment of the present invention provides a pure electric dual-circuit pneumatic brake drive protection control device, which is applied to electric vehicles.

[0095] In some embodiments, the motor is a permanent magnet synchronous motor, and the maximum power of the motor is 420 kW and the peak torque is 2800 N·m.

[0096] In some embodiments, the power limiting module is also used to not limit the torque limit if the current vehicle speed is within a preset first interval; to limit the torque limit to one quarter if the current vehicle speed is within a preset second interval; and to limit the torque limit to one half if the current vehicle speed is within a preset third interval.
