Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of automobile technology, and in particular to a semi-active suspension control system. Background Art

[0002] Semi-active suspension is a kind of controllable suspension. It does not change the suspension stiffness but only changes the suspension damping to adjust the suspension performance. Therefore, it is also called damping controllable suspension. Its structure is relatively simple, low cost, excellent performance, and has a wide range of application prospects. With the development of technology and the improvement of manufacturing process, the application of controllable suspension in automobiles has become possible. The intelligent control of the suspension system can make it have different performance according to different road conditions, thereby coordinating the contradiction between smoothness and stability, and also providing the possibility of expanding the functions of traditional suspension.

[0078] The specific principle of the height adjustment switch detection module 60 is as follows: when the first level adjustment signal Hight-switch1 received by the control end of the sixth transistor K6 and the control end of the seventh transistor K7 is at a high level, and at the same time, the second level adjustment signal Hight-switch2 received by the control end of the eighth transistor K8 and the control end of the ninth transistor K9 is at a high level, each transistor is in a closed state, and then each switch state signal is a low level signal, and the low level signal corresponds to the highest height; when the first level adjustment signal Hight-switch1 received by the control end of the sixth transistor K6 and the control end of the seventh transistor K7 is at a low level, and at the same time, the control end of the eighth transistor K8 and the control end of the ninth transistor K9 are at a high level, each transistor is in a closed state, and then each switch state signal is a low level signal, and the low level signal corresponds to the highest height; When the second level adjustment signal Hight-switch2 received by the control end of 9 is low level, each transistor is in the on state, then each switch state signal is a high level signal, and the corresponding height of the low level signal is the lowest position; when the first level adjustment signal Hight-switch1 received by the control end of the sixth transistor K6 and the control end of the seventh transistor K7 is suspended, and the second level adjustment signal Hight-switch2 received by the control end of the eighth transistor K8 and the control end of the ninth transistor K9 is suspended, each transistor control end is grounded, then each switch state signal is a low level signal, and the corresponding height of the low level signal is the middle position; in this way, different heights can be adjusted by using the combination of each switch state signal. Among them, each current limiting resistor plays a role of current limiting; each pull-down resistor plays a role in ensuring the normal operation of each transistor.
