For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0081] like Figure 1, which is a schematic diagram of an electronic hydraulic brake system, and the electronic hydraulic brake system includes an electronic booster 10, an electronic stability control system 20, and an oil pot module 30. The electronic booster 10 includes a main brake circuit 11 and a mechanical brake circuit 12, and the oil pot module 30 includes a small oil pot 31 and a large oil pot 32. The main brake circuit 11 includes an electric cylinder 111 and a PSV1 valve and a PSV2 valve. The pressure buildup of the electric cylinder 111 is achieved by the motor driving the piston movement in the electric cylinder to build up pressure. The mechanical brake circuit 12 includes a master cylinder 121, a CSV1 valve, a CSV2 valve, an SSV valve and a TSV valve. The CSV1 valve, the CSV2 valve, the SSV valve and the TSV valve are respectively connected to the master cylinder. The SSV valve is connected to the simulation chamber 122. The simulation chamber 122 is connected to the oil pot module 30 through an oil circuit. The other end of the TSV valve is connected to the oil pot module 30. The CSV1 valve is connected to the IV1 valve and the IV2 valve through an oil circuit. The CSV2 valve is connected to the IV3 valve and the IV4 valve through an oil circuit. When the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are in a power-off state, that is, the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve allow flow to pass through, and the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve are in a power-off state, that is, the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve do not allow flow to pass through, the master cylinder 121 provides hydraulic pressure to the IV1 valve, the IV2 valve, the IV3 valve and the IV4 valve. The master cylinder 121 is connected to the brake pedal 123, and pressure is built up for the master cylinder 121 by stepping on the brake pedal 123.

[0082] The electronic stability control system 20 includes a wheel end module 21 and a redundant brake circuit 22. The wheel end module 21 includes an IV1 valve, an IV2 valve, an IV3 valve, an IV4 valve, an OV1 valve, an OV2 valve, an OV3 valve and an OV4 valve, wherein the IV1 valve is connected to the OV1 valve, the OV1 valve is connected to the first wheel end, the IV2 valve is connected to the OV2 valve, and the OV2 valve is connected to the second wheel end. The OV1 valve is in communication with the OV2 valve, the IV3 valve is connected to the OV3 valve, the OV3 valve is connected to the third wheel end, the IV4 valve is connected to the OV4 valve, the OV4 valve is connected to the fourth wheel end, and the OV3 valve is in communication with the OV4 valve. The PSV1 valve of the main brake circuit 11 is connected to the IV1 valve and the IV2 valve through the oil circuit, and the PSV2 valve of the main brake circuit 11 is connected to the IV3 valve and the IV4 valve through the oil circuit. When the solenoid valve in the mechanical brake circuit 12 is in the closed state and the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve are in the energized state, the electric cylinder 111 provides hydraulic pressure to the IV1 valve, the IV2 valve, the IV3 valve and the IV4 valve.

[0083] It should be noted that the CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve are normally open valves, that is, when the CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve are powered on, the CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve are powered on, that is, the flow is not allowed to pass through, and when the CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve are powered off, the CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve are powered off, that is, the flow is allowed to pass through. In the electronic hydraulic brake system, other solenoid valves except the above-mentioned CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve are normally closed valves.

[0084] The redundant brake circuit 22 includes an RV1 valve, an RV2 valve, an SV1 valve, an SV2 valve and a redundant motor 221. The RV1 valve, the RV2 valve, the SV1 valve and the SV2 valve are all connected to the electronic booster. The redundant motor 221 is connected to the RV1 valve, the RV2 valve, the SV1 valve and the SV2 valve respectively. The SV1 valve is connected to the oil pot module 30 via a one-way valve, and the SV2 valve is connected to the oil pot module 30 via a one-way valve. The RV1 valve is connected to the CSV1 valve, and the RV2 valve is connected to the CSV2 valve. The redundant braking circuit 22 also includes a first accumulator A1 and a second accumulator A2, a first plunger pump 222 and a second plunger pump 223. The first plunger pump 222 is connected to the accumulator A1, and the second plunger pump 223 is connected to the second accumulator A2. The first accumulator A1 and the second accumulator A2 store oil for use by the redundant motor 221. The first plunger pump 222 is respectively connected to the RV1 valve and the SV1 valve, and the second plunger pump 223 is respectively connected to the RV2 valve and the SV2 valve.

[0085] After research, it was found that the integrated electronic hydraulic brake system has multiple braking functions sharing one vehicle controller. When some functions fail, the system can only rely on mechanical backup for braking. Therefore, it is necessary for the integrated electronic hydraulic brake system to perform self-checks for each function before operation.

[0086] The detection strategy in the integrated electronic hydraulic brake system is more important. The power-off detection is a detection process for each function and component of the vehicle. These tests are designed to ensure that each system of the vehicle can work properly and can help identify potential problems.

[0087] In view of the discovery of the above problems, the present embodiment provides a self-inspection method and a vehicle, which can determine the first self-inspection strategy of the electronic booster and the wheel-end module when it is detected that the vehicle meets the self-inspection conditions, and detect each component in the electronic booster and the wheel-end module respectively according to the first self-inspection strategy, determine the second self-inspection strategy of the redundant braking circuit, and detect each component in the redundant braking circuit respectively according to the second self-inspection strategy to complete the self-inspection of the electronic hydraulic braking system, ensure that the electronic hydraulic braking system can work normally when it is started next time, and further ensure driving safety. The solution provided in the present embodiment is elaborated in detail below.

[0088] This embodiment provides a vehicle that can perform self-inspection on the vehicle. Figure 2 , Figure 2 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the vehicle 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application. The vehicle 100 may also include Figure 2 More or fewer components as shown, or with Figure 2 Different configurations are shown. Figure 2 Each component shown in the figure can be implemented by hardware, software or a combination thereof.

[0089] The vehicle 100 includes a self-checking device 110 , a memory 120 , and a vehicle controller 130 .

[0090] The components of the memory 120 and the vehicle controller 130 are electrically connected to each other directly or indirectly to realize data transmission or interaction. For example, these components can be electrically connected to each other through one or more communication buses or signal lines. The self-test device 110 includes at least one software function module that can be stored in the memory 120 in the form of software or firmware or solidified in the operating system (OS) of the vehicle 100. The vehicle controller 130 is used to execute the executable modules stored in the memory 120, such as the software function modules and computer programs included in the self-test device 110.

[0091] The memory 120 may be, but is not limited to, a random access memory (RAM), a read only memory (ROM), a programmable read-only memory (PROM), an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM), an electric erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), etc. The memory 120 is used to store a program, and the vehicle controller 130 executes the program after receiving an execution instruction.

[0092] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 For application Figure 2 The flowchart of a self-checking device method of the vehicle 100 is shown in FIG. 1 , and each step of the method is described in detail below.

[0093] like Figure 1 As shown, the electronic hydraulic brake system includes an electronic booster 10 and an electronic stability control system 20 . The electronic booster 10 is connected to the electronic stability control system 20 . The electronic stability control system 20 also includes a wheel end module 21 and a redundant brake circuit 22 .

[0094] S201: When it is detected that the vehicle meets the self-checking condition, a first self-checking strategy for the electronic booster and the wheel end module is determined.

[0095] S202: Detect each component in the electronic booster and the wheel-end module respectively according to the first self-detection strategy.

[0096] S203: Determine a second self-check strategy for the redundant braking circuit.

[0097] S204: Detect each component in the redundant brake circuit according to the second self-detection strategy to complete the self-detection of the electronic hydraulic brake system.

[0098] When determining whether the vehicle meets the self-test conditions, it can be determined whether the vehicle has received the KL15 OFF signal. KL15 represents the vehicle power main line, which is responsible for powering most of the electrical equipment on the vehicle. After receiving the KL15 OFF signal, it is determined that the vehicle meets the self-test conditions.

[0099] In another example, when the electronic hydraulic brake system is in the vehicle power-off state, that is, the KL15 OFF signal is received, timing is started and the duration of the vehicle power-off state is determined, and the duration of the vehicle power-off state is compared with a preset timing duration. When the duration of the vehicle power-off state is equal to the preset timing duration and the vehicle's brake pedal is not stepped on, the vehicle speed is zero, and the vehicle's parking system is in the parking state, it is determined that the vehicle meets the self-test conditions.

[0100] In another example, the single driving mileage of the vehicle can be obtained and compared with the preset driving mileage. When the single driving mileage is less than or equal to the preset driving mileage, the self-check process is not performed during the period from the current ignition to the current power-off.

[0101] It should be noted that the preset driving mileage can be set to 400m, 500m, 600m, etc., and the embodiment of the present invention does not impose any specific limitation on this.

[0102] In order to improve the user experience, the overall detection time of the self-test of each component in the electronic hydraulic brake system is set to not exceed the preset time according to the self-test strategy of each component in the electronic hydraulic brake system. The preset time can be set to 10s, 15s, 20s, etc., and the embodiment of the present invention does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0103] Still refer to Figure 1 The components in the electronic booster in the electronic hydraulic brake system include an electric cylinder, a master cylinder and a first solenoid valve group, the wheel end module includes a second solenoid valve group, the vehicle controller is communicatively connected with the electric cylinder, the master cylinder, the first solenoid valve group and the second solenoid valve group, and the wheel end module includes a second solenoid valve group.

[0104] There are many ways to implement the detection of each device in the electronic booster and the wheel end module according to the first self-test strategy. In one implementation, Figure 4 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0105] S301: Control the electric cylinder to establish a first preset pressure.

[0106] S302: Based on the first preset pressure, control the power-on state of the first solenoid valve group and / or the second solenoid valve group, and detect each component in the electronic booster and the wheel-end module respectively.

[0107] The first solenoid valve group may include a PSV valve, a CSV valve, an SSV valve, and a TSV valve.

[0108] The second solenoid valve group may include an IV valve and an OV valve.

[0109] Before self-testing, all solenoid valves in the entire electronic hydraulic brake system are in the initial state. After the control electric cylinder establishes the first preset pressure, the PSV1 valve is energized for pressure detection, the IV1 valve is de-energized for pressure detection, the OV1 valve is energized for pressure detection, the OV1 valve and the IV2 valve are de-energized for pressure detection, the OV2 valve is energized for pressure detection, the OV2 valve is de-energized and the PSV2 valve is energized for pressure detection, the IV3 valve is de-energized for pressure detection, the OV3 valve is energized for pressure detection, the OV3 valve and the IV4 valve are de-energized for pressure detection, the OV4 valve is energized for pressure detection, the OV4 valve, the TSV valve and the CSV valve are de-energized for pressure detection, and the SSV valve is energized for pressure detection. After the electric cylinder builds pressure once, all components in the electronic booster and the wheel-end module can be tested. By performing self-testing in the above order, the number of pressure build-ups and the time of self-testing can be reduced, and the number of motor starts and solenoid valve switches can be reduced.

[0110] There are many ways to control the power-on state of the first solenoid valve group and / or the second solenoid valve group based on the first preset pressure, and to detect each device in the electronic booster and the wheel end module respectively. In one implementation, Figure 5 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0111] S401: Cut off power to the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve.

[0112] S402: Detect the real-time pressure of the master cylinder and the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0113] S403: Determine the working states of the electric cylinder, the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve based on the real-time pressure of the master cylinder, the first preset pressure and the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0114] Cut off the power to the PSV1 and PSV2 valves, and the PSV1 and PSV2 valves are in the closed state. If there is no abnormality in the PSV1 and PSV2 valves, the PSV1 and PSV2 valves can seal the pressure in the electric cylinder in the electric cylinder, and the hydraulic pressure in other oil circuits in the electronic booster is 0. When the PSV1 or PSV2 valve is abnormal, the PSV1 and PSV2 valves cannot seal the pressure in the electric cylinder in the electric cylinder, and the pressure will leak from the electric cylinder to other oil circuits in the electronic booster, making the hydraulic pressure in other oil circuits of the electronic booster not 0.

[0115] For example, when the PSV1 valve or the PSV2 valve leaks, since the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are in a power-off state, the hydraulic pressure can leak to the master cylinder through the oil circuit between the PSV1 valve and the CSV1 valve or leak to the master cylinder through the oil circuit between the PSV2 valve and the CSV2 valve. Therefore, the presence of hydraulic pressure in the master cylinder can be detected at the master cylinder, that is, it is detected that the real-time pressure of the master cylinder is not 0.

[0116] In one example, when the real-time pressure of the master cylinder is zero and the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is considered that the electric cylinder has no leakage, and the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve can correctly seal the flow, that is, the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve have no forward leakage, and the motor of the electric cylinder is controlled normally, and the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve are controlled normally. When the real-time pressure of the master cylinder is not zero or the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is inconsistent with the first preset pressure, the electric cylinder leaks, the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve have forward leakage, the PSV valve is abnormally controlled, or the motor is abnormally controlled.

[0117] In another example, when the real-time pressure of the master cylinder is zero, the first displacement of the piston corresponding to the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is determined, the target displacement of the piston corresponding to the first preset pressure is determined, and the first displacement is compared with the target displacement. When the first displacement is equal to the target displacement, it is determined that the electric cylinder has no leakage, and the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve can correctly seal the flow, that is, the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve have no forward leakage, and the motor of the electric cylinder is controlled normally, and the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve are controlled normally. When the master cylinder pressure is not zero or the first displacement is inconsistent with the target displacement, it is determined that the electric cylinder leaks, the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve have forward leakage, the PSV valve is abnormally controlled, or the motor is abnormally controlled.

[0118] In another example, when the real-time pressure of the master cylinder is zero, the first displacement of the piston corresponding to the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is determined, the target displacement corresponding to the first preset pressure is determined, and the absolute value of the difference between the first displacement and the target displacement is calculated. When the absolute value is less than or equal to the preset error, it is determined that the electric cylinder has no leakage, and the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve can correctly seal the flow, that is, the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve have no forward leakage, and the electric cylinder's motor is controlled normally, and the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve are controlled normally. When the first pressure of the master cylinder is not zero or the absolute value is greater than the preset error, it is determined that the electric cylinder is leaking, the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve have forward leakage, the PSV valve is abnormally controlled, or the motor is abnormally controlled.

[0119] In another implementation mode, based on the first preset pressure, the power-on state of the first solenoid valve group and / or the second solenoid valve group is controlled to detect each device in the electronic booster and the wheel end module respectively. Figure 6 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0120] like Figure 1 As shown, the first solenoid valve group includes PSV1 valve, CSV1 valve and CSV2 valve, the second solenoid valve group includes IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve, the CSV1 valve is connected to the IV1 valve and the IV2 valve respectively through the oil circuit, and the CSV2 valve is connected to the IV3 valve and IV4 valve respectively through the oil circuit.

[0121] S501: Power is supplied to the CSV1 valve, the CSV2 valve, the IV1 valve, the IV2 valve, the IV3 valve, and the IV4 valve.

[0122] S502: Power on the PSV1 valve.

[0123] S503: Detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0124] S504: Determine the working states of the CSV1 valve, the IV1 valve, and the IV2 valve based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure.

[0125] When detecting the working status of the CSV1 valve, IV1 valve and IV2 valve, the CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve, IV4 valve and PSV1 valve are in the energized state, and all the solenoid valves in the electronic hydraulic control system except the CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve, IV4 and PSV1 valve are in the de-energized state.

[0126] When the electric cylinder builds up the first preset pressure, when the PSV1 valve is in the energized state, the hydraulic pressure at the electric cylinder leaks to the oil circuit connecting the PSV1 valve and the CSV1 valve, and the oil circuit connecting the CSV1 valve and the IV1 valve and the IV2 valve. When the CSV1 valve leaks in the reverse direction, the hydraulic pressure will leak from the CSV1 valve to the master cylinder. When there is a leak in the IV1 valve or the IV2 valve, the first preset pressure built up by the electric cylinder will leak to the first wheel end or the second wheel end.

[0127] In one example, the working states of the CSV1 valve, the IV1 valve, and the IV2 valve may be determined based on a comparison result between the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure.

[0128] When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the CSV1 valve has no reverse leakage, the IV1 valve and the IV2 valve have no forward leakage, and when the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it can also be determined that the PSV1 valve is controlled normally.

[0129] When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is inconsistent with the first preset pressure, it can be determined that the CSV1 valve has reverse leakage when the real-time pressure detected by the master cylinder is not 0. If pressure is detected at the first wheel end or the second wheel end, the IV1 valve or the IV2 valve has forward leakage.

[0130] The pressure sensor at the electric cylinder compares the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder with the first preset pressure. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the CSV1 valve has no reverse leakage, and it is determined that the IV1 valve and the IV2 valve have no forward leakage. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is inconsistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the CSV1 valve is reversely leaking, the IV1 valve and the IV2 valve are forward leaking, or the PSV1 valve is abnormally controlled.

[0131] The second solenoid valve group also includes an OV1 valve, which is connected to the IV1 valve. Based on the first preset pressure, the power-on state of the first solenoid valve group and / or the second solenoid valve group is controlled. The detection of each device in the electronic booster and the wheel end module also includes, for example, Figure 7 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0132] S601: Cut off power to IV1 valve.

[0133] S602: Detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0134] S603: Based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure, determine the working states of the OV1 valve, the IV1 valve, the wheel end corresponding to the IV1 valve, and the wheel end pipeline corresponding to the IV1 valve.

[0135] S604: Power is supplied to the OV1 valve.

[0136] S605: Detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0137] S606: Determine the working state of the OV1 valve based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure.

[0138] On the basis of energizing the CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV1 valve, IV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve and energizing the PSV1 valve, the IV1 valve is in a power-off state. When the IV1 valve is controlled normally, the hydraulic pressure can pass through the IV1 valve to the oil circuit connected to the OV1 valve and push the hydraulic pressure to the first wheel end, that is, the hydraulic pressure can be detected at the first wheel end, and the hydraulic pressure detected at the first wheel end is consistent with the first preset pressure. When the OV1 valve has no leakage, the hydraulic pressure will not leak through the OV1 valve and the oil circuit connecting the OV1 valve and the oil tank module.

[0139] In one example, by detecting the comparison result between the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure, when the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the IV1 valve is controlled normally and the OV1 valve has no leakage. The wheel end corresponding to IV1 has no leakage and the wheel end pipeline corresponding to the IV1 valve has no leakage. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is inconsistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the IV1 valve is abnormally controlled or the OV1 valve has no leakage or the wheel end corresponding to the IV1 valve has no leakage or the wheel end pipeline corresponding to the IV1 valve has no leakage.

[0140] When the conduction state of the OV1 valve is detected, the OV1 valve is controlled to be energized. Since the OV1 valve is in the energized state, the hydraulic pressure will be released to the small oil pot through the oil circuit of the OV1 valve and the oil pot module. At this time, in order to maintain the first preset pressure of the electric cylinder, the motor continues to work, and the piston corresponding to the electric cylinder continues to push forward to maintain the first preset pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0141] In one example, when the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the OV1 valve is controlled normally, that is, the OV1 valve is conducted normally.

[0142] In another example, the displacement of the piston corresponding to the electric cylinder can be determined to judge whether the conduction of the OV1 valve is normal. If it is detected that the displacement of the piston corresponding to the electric cylinder is consistent with the displacement corresponding to maintaining the first preset pressure, it is determined that the conduction of the OV1 valve is normal.

[0143] The second solenoid valve group also includes an OV2 valve, which controls the power-on state of the first solenoid valve group and / or the second solenoid valve group based on the first preset pressure, and detects each device in the electronic booster and the wheel end module separately, such as Figure 8 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0144] S701: Cut off power to the OV1 valve and IV2 valve.

[0145] S702: Detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0146] S703: Based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure, determine the working states of the IV2 valve, the OV2 valve, the wheel end corresponding to the IV2 valve, and the wheel end pipeline corresponding to the IV2 valve.

[0147] S704: Power is supplied to the OV2 valve.

[0148] S705: Detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0149] S706: Determine the working state of the OV2 valve based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure.

[0150] Control the OV1 valve and IV2 valve to the de-energized state, so that the OV1 valve is de-energized and the IV2 valve is open. After the OV1 valve is de-energized, the hydraulic pressure will no longer be released to the oil tank module. When the IV2 valve is opened, the hydraulic pressure will be pushed to the second wheel end through the IV2 valve.

[0151] When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it can be determined that the IV2 valve is conducting normally, the OV2 valve has no leakage, the wheel end corresponding to the IV2 valve has no leakage, and the wheel end pipeline corresponding to the IV2 valve has no leakage.

[0152] If there is a leak at the wheel end corresponding to the IV2 valve, that is, the second wheel end, the hydraulic pressure in the conducted oil circuit will change, that is, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder will be inconsistent with the first preset pressure. When the IV2 valve is abnormally controlled, the hydraulic pressure pushed to the second wheel end by the electric cylinder cannot be detected at the second wheel end. When the OV2 valve leaks, the hydraulic pressure will leak into the oil pot through the OV2 valve, causing the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder to be inconsistent with the first preset pressure. When the wheel end pipeline corresponding to the IV2 valve leaks, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder will also be inconsistent with the first preset pressure. Therefore, the working status of the IV2 valve, the OV2 valve, the wheel end corresponding to the IV2 valve, and the wheel end pipeline corresponding to the IV2 valve can be determined by comparing the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder with the first preset pressure.

[0153] The OV2 valve is controlled to be in the energized state. For the same reason as the OV1 valve is in the energized state, the conduction state of the OV2 valve is determined by comparing the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder with the first preset pressure, which will not be described in detail.

[0154] The second solenoid valve group also includes IV3 valve and IV4 valve, and CSV2 valve is connected to IV3 valve and IV4 valve through oil circuit. Based on the first preset pressure, the power-on state of the first solenoid valve group and / or the second solenoid valve group is controlled, and the detection of each device in the electronic booster and the wheel end module also includes: powering on CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, IV3 valve, IV4 valve and PSV2 valve. Detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder. Based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure, determine the working state of CSV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve. In one example, the hydraulic pressure of the electric cylinder is relieved through PSV2 valve to the oil circuit connecting IV3 and PSV2 valve. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that there is no reverse leakage of CSV2 valve, IV3 valve and IV4 valve. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is inconsistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that CSV2 valve is reversely leaking, IV3 valve is leaking or IV4 valve is leaking. When there is reverse leakage in the CSV2 valve, the hydraulic pressure will leak to the master cylinder through the CSV2 valve. When the pressure detector of the master cylinder detects that the pressure of the master cylinder is not zero, it is determined that there is reverse leakage in the CSV2 valve. When the IV3 valve leaks, the hydraulic pressure will leak to the third wheel end through the IV3 valve. When the pressure sensor based on the third wheel end detects that the pressure is not zero, it is determined that the IV3 valve is leaking. Since the IV4 valve is connected to the IV3 valve through an oil circuit, when the IV4 valve leaks, the hydraulic pressure is released through the PSV2 valve to the oil circuit connecting the IV3 valve and the PSV2 valve and the oil circuit connecting the IV3 valve and the IV4 valve. Therefore, when the IV4 valve leaks, the hydraulic pressure will leak to the fourth wheel end through the IV4 valve, and the pressure will be detected by the pressure sensor corresponding to the fourth wheel end. When the pressure detected by the pressure sensor corresponding to the fourth wheel end is not zero, it is determined that the IV4 valve is leaking.

[0155] The second solenoid valve group also includes an OV3 valve and an OV4 valve, the OV3 valve is connected to the IV3 valve, and the OV4 valve is connected to the IV4 valve. The IV3 valve is controlled to be in a power-off state, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is detected, and based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure, the working states of the IV3 valve, the OV3 valve, the wheel end corresponding to the IV3 valve, and the pipeline of the wheel end corresponding to the IV3 valve are determined. When the IV3 valve is in a power-off state, the hydraulic pressure is discharged from the IV3 valve into the oil circuit connecting IV3 and OV3.

[0156] In one example, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is compared with the first preset pressure, and the leakage of the IV3 valve, the OV3 valve, the wheel end corresponding to the IV3 valve, and the pipeline corresponding to the wheel end of the IV3 valve is determined based on the comparison result. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the IV3 valve is normally conducted, the OV3 valve is not leaking, the wheel end corresponding to the IV3 valve is not leaking, and the pipeline corresponding to the wheel end of the IV3 valve is not leaking. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is inconsistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the IV3 valve is abnormally controlled, the OV3 valve is leaking, the wheel end corresponding to the IV3 valve is leaking, or the pipeline corresponding to the wheel end of the IV3 valve is leaking.

[0157] The OV3 valve is controlled to be powered on, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is detected, and the working state of the OV3 valve is determined based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure. Since the OV3 valve is powered on, the hydraulic pressure will be released to the oil pot through the oil circuit of the OV3 valve and the oil pot module. At this time, in order to maintain the first preset pressure of the electric cylinder, the motor continues to work, and the piston corresponding to the electric cylinder continues to push forward to maintain the first preset pressure of the electric cylinder. In one example, when the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the OV3 valve is controlled normally, that is, the OV3 valve is conducting normally.

[0158] Control the OV3 valve and IV4 valve to the power-off state, detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder, and determine the working state of the IV4 valve, the OV4 valve, the wheel end corresponding to the IV4 valve, and the pipeline of the wheel end corresponding to the IV4 valve based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure. Control the OV3 valve and IV4 valve to the power-off state. After the OV3 valve is powered off, the hydraulic pressure will no longer be released to the oil tank module. Open the IV4 valve, and the hydraulic pressure will be pushed to the fourth wheel end through the IV4 valve.

[0159] When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it can be determined that the IV4 valve is conducting normally, the OV4 valve corresponding to the IV4 valve has no leakage, the wheel end corresponding to the IV4 valve has no leakage, and the wheel end pipe corresponding to the IV4 valve has no leakage.

[0160] If there is a leak at the wheel end corresponding to the IV4 valve, that is, the fourth wheel end, the hydraulic pressure in the conducted oil circuit will change, that is, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder will be inconsistent with the first preset pressure. When the IV4 valve is abnormally controlled, the hydraulic pressure pushed to the wheel end by the electric cylinder cannot be detected at the fourth wheel end. When the OV4 valve leaks, the hydraulic pressure will leak into the oil pot through the OV4 valve, causing the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder to be inconsistent with the first preset pressure. When the wheel end pipeline corresponding to the IV4 valve leaks, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder will also be inconsistent with the first preset pressure. Therefore, the comparison result of the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder with the first preset pressure can be used to determine whether the IV4 valve, the OV4 valve, the wheel end corresponding to the IV4 valve, or the wheel end pipeline corresponding to the IV4 valve is leaking.

[0161] The OV4 valve is controlled to be in an energized state, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is detected, and the working state of the OV4 valve is determined based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure.

[0162] The OV4 valve is controlled to be in an energized state. For the same reason as the OV3 valve is in an open state, the conduction state of the OV4 valve is determined by comparing the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder with the first preset pressure, which will not be described in detail.

[0163] The first solenoid valve group also includes a TSV valve and an SSV valve, the SSV valve is connected to the master cylinder, and the TSV valve is connected to the master cylinder. The PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve are controlled to be in an energized state, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is detected, and based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure, the working states of the CSV1 valve, the CSV2 valve, the TSV valve and the SSV valve, the real-time pressure of the master cylinder is detected, and based on the real-time pressure of the master cylinder and the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder, the working states of the pressure sensor of the master cylinder and the pressure sensor of the electric cylinder are determined. The PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve are in an energized state, and the other solenoid valves are in an off-power state. When the electric cylinder establishes the first preset pressure, the hydraulic pressure is released to the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve through the PSV1 valve and the PSV2 valve. When the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are in an off-power state, the hydraulic pressure is released to the master cylinder through the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve.

[0164] Since the TSV valve is connected to the master cylinder, when the TSV valve leaks, the hydraulic pressure in the master cylinder will leak from the TSV valve to the oil tank module, causing the real-time pressure at the electric cylinder to decrease. When the SSV valve leaks, the hydraulic pressure will leak to the simulation chamber connected to the SSV valve, causing the real-time pressure at the electric cylinder to decrease.

[0165] Therefore, the operating states of the CSV1 valve, the CSV2 valve, the TSV valve, and the SSV valve may be determined based on the comparison result between the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure.

[0166] When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the TSV valve and the SSV valve have no leakage, and the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are controlled normally. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is inconsistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the TSV valve or the SSV valve is leaking or the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are abnormally controlled.

[0167] When the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are abnormally controlled, the pressure sensor at the master cylinder cannot detect the pressure. Therefore, to determine whether the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are abnormally controlled, the pressure of the master cylinder can be detected. When it is detected that the real-time pressure of the master cylinder is consistent with the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder, it is determined that the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are controlled normally and the pressure sensor of the master cylinder and the pressure sensor of the electric cylinder are normal.

[0168] The SSV valve is controlled to be in an energized state, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is detected, and the working state of the SSV valve is determined based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder and the first preset pressure.

[0169] The SSV valve is controlled to be in an energized state. In one example, when the SSV valve is in an energized state, hydraulic pressure is released from the SSV valve into the simulation chamber. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is consistent with the first preset pressure, it is determined that the flow conduction of the SSV valve is normal.

[0170] There are many ways to implement the self-test of the electronic hydraulic brake system by testing each device in the redundant brake circuit according to the second self-test strategy. In one implementation, Fig. 9 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0171] like Figure 1 As shown, the electronic booster includes a first solenoid valve group, the first solenoid valve group includes a CSV1 valve, the redundant brake circuit includes an RV1 valve, an RV2 valve, an SV1 valve, an SV2 valve and a redundant motor, the RV1 valve, the RV2 valve, the SV1 valve and the SV2 valve are all connected to the electronic booster, and the redundant motor is respectively connected to the RV1 valve, the RV2 valve, the SV1 valve and the SV2 valve.

[0172] S801: Cut off the power to the RV1 valve and the RV2 valve, control the piston of the electric cylinder in the electronic booster to return to the zero position, and then control the motor of the electric cylinder to rotate forward by a preset distance.

[0173] The preset distance is greater than the distance between the compensation hole of the electric cylinder and the zero position of the electric cylinder.

[0174] S802: Cut off the power to the CSV1 valve to relieve the pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0175] S803: After the electric cylinder is depressurized, energize the CSV1 valve.

[0176] S804: Control the redundant motor to work and detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0177] S805: Determine the working status of the RV1 valve and the RV2 valve based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0178] When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is zero, it is determined that the RV1 valve and the RV2 valve can be closed and there is no leakage.

[0179] Turn off the power to the RV1 valve and the RV2 valve, and control the piston of the electric cylinder in the electronic booster to retract to the software zero position. Then control the piston of the electric cylinder to rotate forward. The forward rotation distance must be greater than the distance from the compensation hole of the electric cylinder to the zero position of the electric cylinder, so that the piston blocks the compensation hole.

[0180] After the piston of the electric cylinder blocks the compensation hole, the CSV1 valve is controlled to be in an open state, so that the pressure generated by the positive rotation of the piston can be discharged into the oil pot module. After the pressure is discharged into the oil pot module, the CSV1 valve is controlled to be closed.

[0181] When the RV1 valve and RV2 valve are closed, the redundant motor works to build pressure and detects the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder. When the RV1 valve and RV2 valve leak, oil will enter the electric cylinder, making the reading of the pressure sensor at PSV1 not zero, that is, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is not zero.

[0182] When the RV1 valve and the RV2 valve can be closed normally and there is no leakage, the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is zero.

[0183] Determine whether the RV1 valve can be opened normally, such as Fig.10 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0184] S901: Power on the RV1 valve and PSV1 valve, and detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0185] S902: Determine the working state of the RV1 valve based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0186] Control the RV1 valve and PSV1 valve to open. At this time, the pressure of the redundant brake circuit will enter the electric cylinder to determine the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder. When it is determined that the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is not zero and the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is constant at a certain value, it is determined that the RV1 valve can be opened normally. If the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is detected to be zero, it is determined that the RV1 valve is opened abnormally.

[0187] When the RV1 valve opens normally, close the RV1 valve and control the CSV1 valve to open, so that the pressure of the redundant motor is released into the oil tank module, and close the CSV1 valve. The redundant motor continues to work, controls the opening of the RV2 valve and the PSV2 valve, and detects the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is constant at a certain value, it is determined that the RV2 valve can be opened normally. When the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is zero, it is determined that the opening of the RV2 valve is abnormal.

[0188] The implementation method of separately detecting each device in the redundant braking circuit also includes, for example, Fig.11 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0189] like Figure 1 As shown, the redundant braking circuit also includes a first accumulator A1, a second accumulator A2, a first plunger pump 222 and a second plunger pump 223. The first accumulator is connected to the plunger pump, the second accumulator is connected to the second plunger pump, one end of the first plunger pump and the second plunger pump are respectively connected to the redundant motor 221, the other end of the first plunger pump 222 is connected to the SV1 valve, and the other end of the second plunger pump 223 is connected to the SV2 valve.

[0190] S1001: draining the first accumulator and the second accumulator.

[0191] S1002: Cut off power to the RV1 valve, RV2 valve, SV1 valve and SV2 valve.

[0192] S1003: Control the redundant motor to work and energize the RV1 valve.

[0193] S1004: Determine the real-time pressure of the pressure sensor at the RV1 valve.

[0194] S1005: Determine the state of the SV1 valve based on the real-time pressure of the pressure sensor at the RV1 valve.

[0195] When the real-time pressure of the pressure sensor at the RV1 valve is zero, it is determined that the SV1 valve can be closed normally.

[0196] Open the SV1 valve, SV2 valve, CSV1 valve, CSV2 valve, RV1 valve and RV2 valve, and the redundant motor starts to work, and the oil in the first accumulator A1 and the second accumulator A2 is discharged into the oil pot through the first plunger pump, the second plunger pump, the RV1 valve, the RV2 valve, the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve. After the oil in the first accumulator A1 and the second accumulator A2 is discharged into the oil pot, the RV1 valve, the RV2 valve, the SV1 valve, the SV2 valve, the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are controlled to be closed.

[0197] The redundant motor is controlled to work continuously and the RV1 valve is powered on so that the RV1 valve is opened. When the pressure sensor at the RV1 detects pressure, it is determined that the SV1 valve can be closed normally. After the SV1 valve is opened, oil can be drawn from the oil pot to the first accumulator. After the oil in the first accumulator is emptied, the redundant motor cannot build pressure. After the SV1 valve is closed and the redundant motor works, if pressure can be built, it indicates that the SV1 valve is closed abnormally. Oil can still be drawn from the oil pot. Therefore, whether the SV1 valve is closed abnormally can be judged based on whether the redundant motor can build pressure normally. If the real-time pressure detected by the pressure sensor at the RV1 valve is not zero, it is determined that the SV1 valve is closed abnormally.

[0198] The method of detecting whether the SV2 valve can be closed normally is similar to the method of determining the SV1 valve. The RV1 valve, RV2 valve, SV1 valve and SV2 valve are powered off, the redundant motor is controlled to work, and the RV2 valve and PSV2 valve are powered on to determine the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder. The state of the SV2 valve is determined based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder. If the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is zero, it is determined that the SV2 valve can be closed normally. If the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is not zero, it is determined that the SV2 valve is closed abnormally.

[0199] There are many ways to determine whether the SV1 valve can be normally conducted. In one implementation, Fig.12 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0200] S1111: Power on valves SV1 and SV2.

[0201] S1112: Control the redundant motor to work and energize the CSV1 valve and CSV2 valve.

[0202] S1113: Energize RV1 valve and PSV1 valve.

[0203] S1114: Detect the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0204] S1115: Determine the state of the SV1 valve based on the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder.

[0205] Control the SV1 valve and SV2 valve to be in the open state, and control the first plunger pump and the second plunger pump to work, so that liquid can be pumped from the oil pot to the redundant motor through the first plunger pump and the second plunger pump. When it is determined that the redundant motor can build up pressure, it is determined that the SV1 valve can be normally conducted.

[0206] Specifically, the SV1 valve and the SV2 valve are in an open state, the first plunger pump, the second plunger pump and the redundant motor are working, and the CSV1 valve and the CSV2 valve are controlled to be in a closed state.

[0207] In one example, the RV1 valve and the PSV1 valve are opened, and when it is detected that the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is not zero, it is determined that the SV1 valve is normally turned on, and when the real-time pressure of the electric cylinder is zero, it is determined that the SV1 valve is abnormally turned on.

[0208] In another example, the RV1 valve is opened, and when it is detected that the real-time pressure of the pressure sensor at the RV1 valve is not zero, it is determined that the SV1 valve can be normally turned on; when the real-time pressure of the pressure sensor at the RV1 valve is zero, it is determined that the SV1 valve is abnormally turned on.

[0209] The method of determining whether the conduction of the SV2 valve is normal is similar to that of the SV1 valve and will not be described in detail here.

[0211] The embodiment of the present application also provides a computer-readable storage medium, which stores a computer program. When the computer program is executed by the vehicle controller 130, the self-test method is implemented.
