[0061] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0062] It should be noted that, although the functional modules are divided in the system schematic diagram and the logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be performed in a different order than the module division in the system or the order in the flowchart. The terms "first / S100", "second / S200", etc. in the specification, claims and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0063] Reference to "embodiments" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of the phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0064] It is understandable that the engine drag torque control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to any computer device with data processing and computing capabilities, and this computer device can be various terminals or servers. When the computer device in the embodiment is a server, the server is an independent physical server, or a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, CDN (Content Delivery Network), and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. In some embodiments, the terminal is a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, etc., but is not limited to this.

[0065] like Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an implementation environment provided by an embodiment of the invention. Figure 1 The implementation environment includes at least one terminal 102 and a server 101. The terminal 102 and the server 101 can be connected to a network wirelessly or wired to complete data transmission and exchange.

[0066] Server 101 can be an independent physical server, or a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers. It can also be a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, CDN (Content Delivery Network), as well as big data and artificial intelligence platforms.

[0067] In addition, the server 101 can also be a node server in the blockchain network. Blockchain is a new application model of computer technologies such as distributed data storage, peer-to-peer transmission, consensus mechanism, and encryption algorithm.

[0068] The terminal 102 may be a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a smart speaker, a smart watch, etc. The terminal 102 may also be a vehicle-mounted terminal of various device types described above, but is not limited thereto. The terminal 102 and the server 101 may be directly or indirectly connected via wired or wireless communication, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

[0069] Based on the example Figure 1In the implementation environment shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an engine drag torque control method. The following is explained using the engine drag torque control method applied in the server 101 as an example. It can be understood that the engine drag torque control method can also be applied in the terminal 102.

[0070] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 2 The flowchart of the engine drag torque control method applied to the server provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the execution subject of the engine drag torque control method can be any of the aforementioned computer devices (including servers or terminals). Figure 2 , the method may include the following steps:

[0071] S100, obtaining operating parameters of a target vehicle;

[0072] The operating parameters include vehicle speed, drive wheel slip rate, driving intention variable, operating state of integrated brake control system and operating state of drag torque control function;

[0073] It should be understood that both the working state of the integrated brake control system and the operating state of the drag torque control function can be directly obtained by accessing the integrated brake control system.

[0074] It should be noted that in some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, when the operating parameter is the wheel slip rate of the driving wheel, step S100 may include the following steps: S101, obtaining the wheel speed of each driving wheel of the target vehicle; S102, obtaining the wheel slip rate of each driving wheel according to the ratio of the difference between the vehicle speed and the wheel speed to the vehicle speed.

[0075] For example, in some embodiments, the acquisition of the driving wheel slip rate is generally achieved by:

[0076] Wheel speed sensor: The vehicle will be equipped with a wheel speed sensor to monitor the speed of each wheel in real time. The wheel speed sensor can obtain the wheel speed information of the driving wheels on both sides.

[0077] Vehicle speed calculation: The actual vehicle speed is usually estimated by the wheel speed of the non-driven wheels (such as driven wheels), because the non-driven wheels are closer to a pure rolling state in most cases. At the same time, modern vehicle control systems also combine other sensors (such as accelerometers, GPS, etc.) and vehicle models to estimate the vehicle speed to improve accuracy.

[0078] Slip ratio calculation: After obtaining the wheel speed of the driving wheels on both sides and the actual speed of the vehicle, the slip ratio can be calculated according to the definition formula of the slip ratio. For the driving wheels, the slip ratio calculation formula is usually:

[0079] Slip ratio = [(vehicle speed - wheel speed) / vehicle speed] × 100%;

[0080] The "vehicle speed" here refers to the actual speed of the vehicle, not the wheel speed of the driving wheels.

[0081] Optionally, in some embodiments, the driving intention variable includes a driving intention change amount, and the driving intention change amount includes a driving intention decrease amount and a driving intention increase amount; Figure 4 As shown, when the operating parameter is the driving intention change, step S100 may include the following steps: S111, obtaining the first position change of the accelerator pedal of the target vehicle within a preset period; S112, determining the driving intention decrease according to the rising change of the first position change, and determining the driving intention increase according to the falling change of the first position change.

[0082] Optionally, in some embodiments, the driving intention variable includes a braking intention change amount, and the braking intention change amount includes a braking intention reduction amount and a braking intention increase amount; Figure 5 As shown, when the operating parameter is the change in braking intention, step S100 may include the following steps: S121, obtaining a second position change of the brake pedal of the target vehicle within a preset period; S122, determining an increase in braking intention based on a decreasing change in the second position change, and determining a decrease in braking intention based on an increasing change in the second position change.

[0083] For example, in some embodiments, to obtain the reduction in the driving intention of the vehicle, it is usually necessary to analyze the vehicle's power control system and sensor data. The following are exemplary descriptions of some key steps and methods:

[0084] Driving Intention Recognition:

[0085] The driver's driving intention can be identified using sensor data (such as accelerator pedal position sensor, brake pedal position sensor, steering wheel angle sensor, etc.). These data can reflect the driver's acceleration, deceleration or steering intention in real time.

[0086] If the driving intention indicates a need to reduce power output (such as releasing the accelerator pedal, lightly pressing the brake pedal, or reducing driving force when turning to avoid skidding), the power control system can adjust the engine torque output or brake system intervention accordingly to achieve the driving intention.

[0087] Quantification of driving intention change: The driving intention change can be quantified by comparing the accelerator pedal position before and after adjustment within a preset period.

[0088] Similarly, the change in braking intention can be quantified by comparing the position of the brake pedal before and after adjustment within a preset period.

[0089] In some preferred implementations, advanced algorithms can also be applied: in some advanced vehicle systems, complex algorithms (such as fuzzy control algorithms, neural network algorithms, etc.) can be used to more accurately identify driving intentions and adjust power output. These algorithms can comprehensively consider multiple sensor data to improve recognition accuracy and response speed.

[0090] It should be understood that since different vehicles may have different power control systems and sensor configurations, the specific methods for obtaining the driving intention reduction amount may also be different. In actual applications, adaptive adjustments can be made according to specific application scenarios.

[0091] S200: When the operating parameter meets the first preset condition, the drag torque control function is set to an activated state, and a torque increase operation is performed on the target vehicle;

[0092] It should be noted that in some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, when the operating parameters meet the first preset conditions, the following steps may be included: when the working state of the integrated braking control system is normal, the vehicle speed is greater than the first vehicle speed threshold, the wheel slip rates of the driving wheels on both sides of the target vehicle are greater than the first slip rate threshold, the driving intention variable exceeds the first variable threshold, and the operating state of the drag torque control function is inactive, it is determined that the operating parameters meet the first preset conditions.

[0093] The driving intention variable includes a driving intention reduction amount and a braking intention increase amount. The driving intention variable exceeding a first variable threshold value indicates that the driving intention reduction amount or the braking intention increase amount exceeds a preset variable threshold value.

[0094] For example, in some embodiments, when the IBC is operating normally, the vehicle speed is greater than the threshold for starting the engine drag torque control function, the wheel slip rates on both sides of the driving wheels exceed the threshold, and the driver's driving intention reduction or braking intention increase exceeds the threshold within a certain period of time (the thresholds for the driving intention reduction and the braking intention increase can be set separately), the engine drag torque control function will be triggered, and the engine drag torque control function state can be changed from inactive to active.

[0095] Further, in some embodiments, setting the drag torque control function to an activated state may include the following steps: sending a first state transition instruction to the integrated braking control system so that the integrated braking control system transitions the drag torque control function from an inactivated state to an activated state in response to the first state transition instruction.

[0096] Further, in some embodiments, performing a torque increase operation on a target vehicle may include the following steps: sending a torque increase request to an engine management system of the target vehicle through an integrated braking control system, so that the engine management system controls the engine of the target vehicle to perform a torque increase response action in response to the torque increase request; wherein the torque increase response action includes increasing the throttle opening and increasing the fuel injection amount.

[0097] For example, in some embodiments, when the IBC of the vehicle sends a torque increase request, the actions performed mainly include:

[0098] Increase engine torque output: The IBC sends a torque increase request to the engine management system (EMS). The EMS responds to this request by adjusting the throttle opening, increasing the fuel injection amount, or other means to make the engine output greater torque.

[0099] In some preferred embodiments, a transmission response may also be performed: if the vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission, the EMS may adjust the transmission state through the transmission control unit (TCU), such as downshifting to increase the gear ratio, thereby more efficiently transmitting the increased torque to the wheels.

[0100] It should be understood that the above description is an exemplary explanation based on the general vehicle power control principle. The IBC system of a specific vehicle and its interaction logic with subsystems such as EMS and TCU may vary depending on the vehicle model, manufacturer and design concept. In actual application, adaptive adjustments can be made.

[0101] S300, when the operating parameter meets the second preset condition, the drag torque control function is set to a balanced state, and a torque reduction operation is performed on the target vehicle;

[0102] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, when the operating parameters meet the second preset condition, the following steps may be included: when the operating state of the drag torque control function is activated and the wheel slip rates of the driving wheels on both sides of the target vehicle are within the preset second slip rate stable range, it is determined that the operating parameters meet the second preset condition.

[0103] For example, in some embodiments, when the wheel slip rate is stable, that is, when there is no risk of wheel locking, the engine drag torque control function state changes from an activated state to a balanced state, and the IBC sends a torque reduction request to increase energy recovery.

[0104] Further, in some embodiments, setting the drag torque control function to a balanced state may include the following steps: sending a second state transition instruction to the integrated braking control system so that the integrated braking control system transitions the drag torque control function from an activated state to a balanced state in response to the second state transition instruction.

[0105] Further, in some embodiments, performing a torque reduction operation on a target vehicle may include the following steps: sending a torque reduction request to an engine management system of the target vehicle through an integrated braking control system, so that the engine management system controls the engine of the target vehicle to perform a torque reduction response action in response to the torque reduction request; wherein the torque reduction response action includes reducing the throttle opening and reducing the amount of fuel injection.

[0106] For example, in some embodiments, when the IBC of the vehicle sends a torque reduction request, the actions performed mainly include:

[0107] Reducing engine torque output: The IBC sends a torque reduction request to the EMS, and the EMS responds to this request by reducing the throttle opening, reducing the amount of fuel injection, etc. to reduce the engine torque output.

[0108] In some preferred implementations, a transmission response may also be performed: during the torque reduction process, the EMS may adjust the transmission state through the TCU, such as upshifting to reduce the transmission ratio and reduce the torque transmitted to the wheels.

[0109] It should be understood that the above description is an exemplary explanation based on the general vehicle power control principle. The IBC system of a specific vehicle and its interaction logic with subsystems such as EMS and TCU may vary depending on the vehicle model, manufacturer and design concept. In actual application, adaptive adjustments can be made.

[0110] S400: When the operating parameters meet the third preset condition, the drag torque control function is set to an inactive state.

[0111] It should be noted that the operating parameters also include the working time of the drag torque control function; in some embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, when the operating parameters meet the third preset condition, the following steps are included: when the operating parameters meet any of the following conditions: the working state of the integrated braking control system is failure, the vehicle speed is less than the second vehicle speed threshold, the wheel slip rates of the driving wheels on both sides of the target vehicle are less than the first slip rate threshold, the driving intention variable exceeds the second variable threshold, the operating state of the drag torque control function is an equilibrium state, or the working time of the drag torque control function exceeds the time threshold, it is determined that the operating parameters meet the third preset condition.

[0112] The driving intention variable includes an increase in driving intention and a decrease in braking intention. The driving intention variable exceeding a second variable threshold value indicates that the increase in driving intention or the decrease in braking intention exceeds a preset variable threshold value.

[0113] For example, in some embodiments, when the IBC fails to work, or the vehicle speed is less than the engine drag torque control function shutdown threshold, or the engine drag torque control function working time exceeds the threshold, or the driver's driving intention increase or braking intention decrease exceeds the threshold after the DTC works (the thresholds for the driving intention increase and the braking intention decrease can be set separately), or the wheel slip rates on both sides of the driving wheels are lower than the threshold, the engine drag torque control function will be turned off, and the engine drag torque control function state will change from activated to inactivated.

[0114] Further, in some embodiments, setting the drag torque control function to an inactivated state may include the following steps: sending a third state transition instruction to the integrated braking control system so that the integrated braking control system transitions the drag torque control function from an equilibrium state to an inactivated state in response to the third state transition instruction.

[0115] In order to explain the principle of the technical solution of the present invention in detail, the overall process of the present invention is described below in combination with some specific embodiments. It is easy to understand that the following is an explanation of the technical principle of the present invention and cannot be regarded as a limitation of the present invention.

[0116] First of all, it should be noted that engine drag torque control is one of the important functions of IBC. When the vehicle's wheels tend to lock due to motor back-drag during energy recovery, IBC can actively adjust traction to maintain the stability of the vehicle body. However, this method will cause certain losses in energy recovery. In view of this, the present invention aims to set a state between energy recovery and wheel locking to balance energy recovery and wheel locking tendencies.

[0117] like Figure 8 As shown, the process steps of the technical solution of the present invention can be implemented as follows:

[0118] 1. When IBC works normally, the vehicle speed is greater than the threshold for the engine drag torque control function to start, the wheel slip rates on both sides of the driving wheels exceed the threshold, and the driver's driving intention reduction or braking intention increase exceeds the threshold within a certain period of time (the thresholds for driving intention reduction and braking intention increase can be set separately), the engine drag torque control function will be triggered, and the engine drag torque control function state will change from inactive to active;

[0119] 2. When activated, the engine drag torque control function will be triggered, and the IBC will send a torque increase request to reduce the wheel slip rate on both sides of the drive wheel;

[0120] 3. When the wheel slip rate is stable, that is, when there is no risk of wheel locking, the engine drag torque control function state changes from the activated state to the balanced state, and the IBC sends a torque reduction request to increase energy recovery;

[0121] 4. When IBC fails to work, or the vehicle speed is less than the engine drag torque control function shutdown threshold, or the engine drag torque control function working time exceeds the threshold, or the driver's driving intention increase or braking intention decrease exceeds the threshold after DTC works (the thresholds for the driving intention increase and braking intention decrease can be set separately), or the wheel slip rates on both sides of the driving wheels are lower than the threshold, the engine drag torque control function will be turned off, and the engine drag torque control function state will change from activated to inactivated.

[0122] In summary, the technical solution of the present invention is aimed at the integrated braking control system (IBC) when the engine drag torque control function is triggered, in order to reduce the loss of energy recovery in the process, and a new state is added to balance energy recovery and wheel locking tendency. The technical solution of the present invention achieves comprehensive monitoring and intelligent management of vehicle dynamics by accurately obtaining multiple key operating parameters of the target vehicle, including vehicle speed, drive wheel slip rate, driving intention variables, the working state of the integrated braking control system (IBC) and the operating state of the drag torque control function. Through the flexible adjustment of the drag torque control function, the following significant beneficial effects can be achieved:

[0123] Optimizing energy recovery and braking safety: Traditional braking systems often face a dilemma when dealing with energy recovery and wheel locking. This solution monitors operating parameters in real time and dynamically adjusts the state of the drag torque control function according to preset conditions, which not only ensures efficient energy recovery, but also effectively avoids the safety hazards caused by wheel locking, achieving dual optimization of energy utilization and braking safety.

[0124] Improve driving experience and stability: By precisely controlling the drag torque, this solution can respond to driving intentions more delicately, reduce vehicle frustration caused by improper braking system intervention, and improve driving smoothness and comfort. At the same time, precise management of wheel slip rate helps maintain vehicle stability in complex road conditions and improve driving safety.

[0125] Enhanced system adaptability and robustness: This solution can automatically adjust the state of the drag torque control function according to different operating parameter combinations, showing strong system adaptability and robustness. Whether in high-speed driving, low-speed crawling or emergency braking, it can ensure that the vehicle is in the best control state.

[0126] Promoting technological innovation and industrial upgrading: The successful implementation of this plan not only provides a new technical path for the development of integrated brake control systems (IBC), but also brings innovative solutions to the energy management and brake control fields of new energy vehicles. This will help promote technological progress and industrial upgrading of the entire automotive industry, and promote the research and development and application of safer, more efficient and environmentally friendly automotive products.

[0127] In summary, the technical solution of the present invention finds a perfect balance between energy recovery and wheel locking by accurately controlling the drag torque, which not only improves the vehicle's energy utilization efficiency and braking safety, but also optimizes the driving experience, enhances the adaptability and robustness of the system, and makes important contributions to promoting innovation in automotive technology and industrial upgrading.
