[0033] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0034] The following describes a vehicle engine startup control method, a computer-readable storage medium, a vehicle engine startup control device, a vehicle controller, and a vehicle according to embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Figure 1 1 is a flow chart of a method for starting a vehicle engine according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0036] Specifically, in some embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle includes a range extender, the engine is applied to the range extender, and the range extender also includes a generator, such as Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle engine start control method includes:

[0037] S101, when the vehicle meets the range extension requirement, obtaining the engine start target speed and ignition speed.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the vehicle starts the extended-range mode or the vehicle's power battery is less than a preset power level, it is determined that the vehicle meets the extended-range requirement, and then when the vehicle meets the extended-range requirement, the engine's starting target speed and ignition speed are obtained, wherein the starting target speed is determined through a large number of tests and calibrations during the vehicle design phase, and is stored in the vehicle controller or the engine control system after determination, and then the engine's starting target speed can be obtained from the vehicle controller or the engine control system, and the ignition speed is the lowest speed at which the engine can stably burn and output power, which is determined through engine design and calibration, and stored in the engine management system, and then the ignition speed can be obtained through the engine management system.

[0039] S102, controlling the generator to drive the engine to perform multiple accelerations according to the starting target speed and the ignition speed, until the engine speed reaches the starting target speed.

[0040] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first preset speed is determined according to the ignition speed, and the second preset speed is determined according to the startup target speed, so that the engine speed is controlled to increase from zero to the first preset speed at the first preset speed slope, and the engine speed is controlled to increase from the first preset speed to the second preset speed at the second preset speed slope. The speed value of the second preset speed is equal to the speed value of the startup target speed, so that the engine speed can quickly reach the ignition speed and smoothly rise to the startup target speed.

[0041] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle engine start control method includes: when the vehicle starts the range extension mode or the power battery of the vehicle is less than a preset power, determining that the vehicle meets the range extension requirement.

[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the user predicts an upcoming long-distance trip or the current power battery power is insufficient to support the remaining journey, a command can be issued through the touch screen, physical button or voice control system to control the vehicle to start the extended range mode. The battery management system will monitor the voltage, current, temperature and other parameters of the battery in real time, and calculate the remaining power of the battery accordingly. When the battery management system detects that the power battery power is lower than the preset power, it will send a signal to the vehicle control system to determine that the vehicle meets the extended range requirement. Among them, the preset power can be 10%, 15% or 20% of the power of the fully charged power battery. In addition, the present invention does not specifically limit the value of the preset power.

[0043] Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, according to the starting target speed and the ignition speed, the generator is controlled to drive the engine to perform multiple accelerations, including:

[0044] S201, determining a first preset speed according to an ignition speed, and determining a second preset speed according to a startup target speed.

[0045] Specifically, in this real-time example, Figure 3 As shown, the first preset speed n_target1 is determined according to the ignition speed, and then the first preset speed n_target1 is used as the target speed of the first acceleration stage, and the second preset speed n_target2 is determined according to the startup target speed, and then the second preset speed n_target2 is used as the target speed of the second acceleration stage. It should be noted that, Figure 3 The horizontal coordinate in the figure represents time in seconds, and the vertical coordinate represents rotation speed in revolutions per minute.

[0046] S202, controlling the engine speed to increase from zero to a first preset speed at a first preset speed slope.

[0047] Specifically, in this embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, after the vehicle controller determines the first preset speed n_target1 according to the ignition speed, it controls the engine speed to increase from zero to the first preset speed n_target1 at the first preset speed slope k1, wherein the first preset speed slope k1 is calibrated according to the characteristics of the engine and stored in the vehicle's memory.

[0048] S203, controlling the engine speed to increase from the first preset speed to the second preset speed at a second preset speed slope.

[0049] Specifically, in this embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, after the vehicle controller controls the engine speed to increase from zero to the first preset speed n_target1 at the first preset speed slope k1, the engine speed is controlled to increase from the first preset speed n_target1 to the second preset speed n_target2 at the second preset speed slope k2, wherein the second preset speed slope k2 is calibrated according to the characteristics of the engine and stored in the vehicle's memory, and the first preset speed slope k1 is greater than the second preset speed slope k2, thereby enabling the engine speed to quickly reach the ignition speed and smoothly rise to the start target speed. It should be noted that the total time for the engine speed to increase from zero to the second preset speed is 1 second.

[0050] Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, before obtaining the start target speed of the engine, the method further includes: sending a speed control instruction to the range extender to make the range extender enter a speed control mode.

[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, when it is detected that the vehicle has a need to extend its range, for example, when the user predicts an upcoming long-distance trip or the current power battery power is insufficient to support the remaining journey, a command can be issued through the touch screen, physical buttons or voice control system to enable the vehicle controller to send a speed control command to the generator controller in the range extender, so that the range extender enters the speed control mode.

[0052] Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the vehicle engine start control method further includes:

[0053] S301, when the engine speed is at the start target speed, determining that the engine is in an idle state.

[0054] Specifically, in this embodiment, a speed sensor can be provided on the engine to detect the real-time speed of the engine through the speed sensor. During the period when the first preset speed is determined according to the ignition speed and the second preset speed is determined according to the starting target speed, and the engine speed is controlled to increase from zero to the first preset speed with a first preset speed slope, and the engine speed is controlled to increase from the first preset speed to the second preset speed with a second preset speed slope, the engine speed continues to increase, and when the speed sensor detects that the engine speed is the starting target speed, it is determined that the engine is in an idle state.

[0055] S302: Send a torque control instruction to the range extender to make the range extender enter a torque control mode.

[0056] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the vehicle controller determines that the engine is in an idle state, the vehicle controller sends a torque control instruction to the range extender through a preset communication protocol, so that the range extender enters a torque control mode. In the torque control mode, the range extender can accurately control its output torque according to the instructions of the vehicle controller, and work in conjunction with the engine or motor to provide additional power support or power supply for the vehicle, thereby improving the vehicle's endurance, and enhancing the vehicle's overall performance and ease of use, providing users with a better driving experience.

[0057] In summary, in a specific embodiment of the present invention, when the user predicts an upcoming long-distance trip or the current power battery power is insufficient to support the remaining journey, a command can be issued through a touch screen, a physical button or a voice control system to enable the vehicle controller to send a speed control command to the generator controller in the range extender, so that the range extender enters a speed control mode, obtains the engine's start target speed from the vehicle controller, and obtains the ignition speed through the engine management system, determines the first preset speed according to the ignition speed, and determines the second preset speed according to the start target speed, and then the vehicle controller can control the engine speed to increase from zero to the first preset speed at a first preset speed slope, and control the engine speed to increase from the first preset speed to the second preset speed at a second preset speed slope. Among them, the speed value of the second preset speed is equal to the speed value of the start target speed, so that the engine speed can quickly reach the ignition speed and rise smoothly to the start target speed. When the engine speed is the start target speed, it is determined that the engine is in an idle state. After the vehicle controller determines that the engine is in an idle state, the vehicle controller sends a torque control command to the range extender through a preset communication protocol to enable the range extender to enter a torque control mode. In the torque control mode, the range extender can accurately control its output torque according to the instructions of the vehicle controller, and work in conjunction with the engine or electric motor to provide additional power support or power supply for the vehicle, thereby improving the vehicle's endurance and enhancing the vehicle's overall performance and ease of use, providing users with a better driving experience.

[0058] In summary, according to the engine starting control method of an embodiment of the present invention, when the vehicle meets the range extension requirement, the starting target speed and ignition speed of the engine are obtained, and then the generator is controlled according to the starting target speed and the ignition speed to drag the engine for multiple accelerations until the engine speed reaches the starting target speed. As a result, the engine speed can quickly reach the ignition speed and smoothly rise to the maximum starting speed, thereby improving the starting efficiency and starting smoothness, and effectively improving the noise, vibration and acoustic roughness performance of the whole vehicle, bringing a more comfortable and pleasant driving experience to the driver.

[0059] Based on the vehicle control method proposed in the aforementioned embodiment of the present invention, the embodiment of the present invention further proposes a computer-readable storage medium, on which a vehicle engine startup control program is stored. When the vehicle engine startup control program is executed by a processor, the vehicle engine startup control method of the aforementioned embodiment of the present invention is implemented.

[0060] According to the computer-readable storage medium of an embodiment of the present invention, by executing the starting control program of the vehicle engine through the processor, the engine speed can quickly reach the ignition speed and smoothly rise to the maximum starting speed, thereby improving the starting efficiency and the starting smoothness, and effectively improving the noise, vibration and sound roughness performance of the whole vehicle, bringing a more comfortable and pleasant driving experience to the driver.

[0061] Figure 5 4 is a block diagram of a vehicle engine start control device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0062] Specifically, the vehicle includes a range extender, the engine is applied to the range extender, the range extender also includes a generator, and the vehicle engine start control device 100 includes an acquisition module 10 and a control module 20 .

[0063] Among them, the acquisition module 10 is used to obtain the engine's starting target speed and ignition speed when the vehicle meets the extended range requirement; the control module 20 is used to control the generator to drag the engine for multiple accelerations according to the starting target speed and the ignition speed until the engine speed reaches the starting target speed.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present invention, the control module 20 is further configured to determine whether the vehicle meets the range extension requirement when the vehicle starts the range extension mode or the power battery of the vehicle is less than a preset power level.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, the control module 20 is specifically used to determine a first preset speed based on the ignition speed, and to determine a second preset speed based on the starting target speed; to control the engine speed to increase from zero to the first preset speed at a first preset speed slope; and to control the engine speed to increase from the first preset speed to the second preset speed at a second preset speed slope.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present invention, the first preset rotation speed slope is greater than the second preset rotation speed slope.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present invention, before obtaining the start target speed of the engine, the obtaining module 10 is further configured to send a speed control instruction to the range extender so that the range extender enters a speed control mode.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, the control module 20 is further configured to determine that the engine is in an idle state when the engine speed is the start target speed; and send a torque control instruction to the range extender to enable the range extender to enter a torque control mode.
