Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of vehicle control technology, and in particular to a hybrid DCT clutch control system and method. Background Art

[0002] The hybrid DCT (dual clutch transmission) has two sets of clutches, which are responsible for the shifting of odd gears and even gears (including N gear) respectively. During the shifting process, the clutch and engine speed are very different, and the torque is transmitted at the same time. The clutch will generate sliding friction and cannot be cooled in time, resulting in overheating and failure of the friction plate and the dual steel plate.

[0003] During intense driving, the driver may frequently shift gears due to the large torque demand on the wheel side, causing clutch overheating, which may lead to clutch damage, degradation of driving performance, and power loss during gear shifting.

[0004] The solution of the existing technology is to first monitor the temperature of the clutch, then limit the maximum torque output of the engine and increase the shift time. When the overheating limit is reached, the clutch is forced to open completely. This control strategy has the following problems: (1) The performance of the clutch needs to be improved, which will increase costs. Due to the large moment of inertia required, fuel consumption will increase; (II) The cooling capacity of the cooling system needs to be increased: the power of the oil pump and the cooling capacity of the water pump need to be increased, which will increase energy consumption and cost. (III) It is necessary to limit the engine torque output or extend the shift time: performance is reduced, power is attenuated, and customers can clearly feel it; (IV) Overheat limit clutch forced open: the engine has no direct drive function and the engine speed is high, causing panic. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention aims to at least improve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the present invention proposes a hybrid DCT clutch control system and method.

According to the hybrid DCT clutch control system of the embodiment of the present invention, the clutch is ensured not to be overheated by a shifting strategy method without increasing the maximum cooling capacity and limiting the maximum torque, while retaining excellent shifting performance and power output, which is specifically embodied in: 1. When the clutch is overheated, the problem of clutch overheating can be solved through unique and innovative shifting mode switching.

[0007] 2. By confirming the current clutch temperature threshold in real time and setting the temperature level, the corresponding control strategy is switched based on the temperature level reached.

[0011] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, if the current temperature of the clutch is updated to the third temperature level Temp_Lvr=3 during the execution of the shifting permission strategy, the C2C shifting operation is also allowed to be completed, and the AMT will not be forced to shift.

[0012] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, before the control system performs a demand shift, it also includes pre-determining whether the control module receives a trigger signal of an overheating flag Hot_flg, and executing a corresponding overheating processing strategy according to the determination result.

[0013] In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect, executing a corresponding overheating treatment strategy according to the judgment result specifically includes: If a trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg is received, the first processing strategy is executed; If the trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg is not received, the second processing strategy is executed.

[0014] In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the first processing strategy includes: Determine whether the current temperature level of the clutch is less than the second temperature level. If so, allow receiving the C2C shift control instruction and clear the trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg; If not, the AMT (Automated Mechanical Transmission) will be forced to shift gears in the next shifting process to cool the clutch.

[0015] In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the second processing strategy includes: Determine whether the current temperature level of the clutch is less than the third temperature level, and if so, allow receiving the C2C shift control instruction; If not, AMT shifting is forced in the next shifting process.

For example, the Internet interacts with other systems via signals).

[0028] Example 1 See also Figure 1 As shown, a hybrid DCT clutch control system according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention comprises: The acquisition module 100 is used to obtain the working parameters of the current environment, wherein the working parameters include engine torque, clutch torque, engine speed, clutch speed and current actual cooling flow; An input module 200 is used to input a temperature threshold; A calculation module 300, connected to the acquisition module 100, for calculating the current temperature of the clutch; The control module 400 is connected to the input module 200 and sets a plurality of temperature levels based on the input temperature threshold. The control module 300 is connected to the calculation module 300 and is used to determine the corresponding temperature level according to the current temperature of the clutch and switch the corresponding control strategy based on the temperature level. The execution module 500 is used to execute the control strategy. It should be noted that the engine torque and speed data can be obtained through the engine control unit (ECU). Modern engines are usually equipped with sensors and control systems that can monitor and record these parameters in real time. Engine torque data can also be obtained indirectly through the transmission control unit (TCU), because the transmission needs to coordinate with the engine when shifting gears and transmitting power.

[0029] It should be noted that the clutch torque is indirectly calculated by measuring the torque difference between the clutch input shaft and the clutch output shaft.

[0030] It should be noted that the clutch speed is directly obtained by measuring the speed of the clutch input shaft or output shaft, specifically by arranging a speed sensor on the clutch shaft for direct measurement.

[0031] It should be noted that the clutch speed is directly obtained by measuring the speed of the clutch input shaft or output shaft, specifically by arranging a speed sensor on the clutch shaft for direct measurement.

[0032] It should be noted that the cooling flow rate can be directly obtained by measuring the coolant flow rate flowing through the cooling system.

[0033] It should be noted that the calculation module 300 is a clutch temperature calculation module, which can calculate the current clutch temperature Temp in real time based on the actual engine torque Eng_Trq and the clutch torque Clu1_Tr\Clu2_trq, the speed difference between the engine speed and the clutch speed DeltSpd, and the current actual cooling flow, and convert it to the clutch temperature level Temp_Lvr, wherein the speed difference between the engine speed and the clutch speed DeltSpd can be obtained from the engine speed and the clutch speed.

[0034] The real-time calculation of the current clutch temperature Temp can be obtained by table lookup.

[0035] It should be noted that the setting of multiple temperature levels based on the input temperature threshold includes specifically setting three temperature levels: The first temperature level Temp_Lvr=1, must satisfy: 0<Temp<T1; The second temperature level Temp_Lvr=2, must meet the following conditions: T2<Temp<T3; The third temperature level Temp_Lvr=3 must satisfy: Temp>T4.

[0036] In this embodiment, T1 = 250° C., T2 = 280° C., T3 = 320° C., and T4 = 350° C. The temperature level set based on this temperature can retain excellent shifting performance and power output.

[0037] It should be noted that the control strategy for determining the corresponding temperature level according to the current temperature of the clutch and switching the corresponding control strategy based on the temperature level includes the following contents: If the current clutch temperature is at the first temperature level Temp_Lvr=1, the silent strategy is switched and no control signal is output; If the current clutch temperature is at the second temperature level Temp_Lvr=2, the shifting strategy is switched to allow the control command of C2C shifting to be received; If the current temperature of the clutch is at the third temperature level Temp_Lvr=3, the forced shift strategy is switched to force the AMT shift control command to be executed.

[0038] It should be noted that, if during the execution of the shift-permitting strategy, the current temperature of the clutch is updated to the third temperature level Temp_Lvr=3, the C2C shift operation is also allowed to be completed, and the AMT will not be forced to shift.

[0039] The shifting process in this embodiment includes the following process: Figure 2 As shown, where: C2C shift, taking the power 2 down to 1 as an example, open the second gear C2 clutch, so that the front engine speed rises to the speed corresponding to the first gear, and then the torque interaction is carried out. During the whole process, the speed adjustment time is fast and the second gear can still transmit torque. At the same time, the P3 motor will compensate the torque according to the driver's needs. The whole process is fast, and the power attenuation is not felt.

[0040] For AMT shifting, take the example of power 2 down to 1, the C2 gear clutch makes a torque clearance request and attenuates the engine power output; the speed is adjusted to the 1st gear target speed, the C1 gear clutch adds torque and increases the engine torque. The whole process is relatively smooth, but the shifting time is long and the speed regulation is required to be high.

[0041] It should be noted that before the control system performs the required gear shift, it also includes pre-determining whether the control module receives a trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg, and executing a corresponding overheating treatment strategy according to the judgment result.

[0042] It should be noted that the corresponding overheating treatment strategy executed according to the judgment result specifically includes: If a trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg is received, the first processing strategy is executed; If the trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg is not received, the second processing strategy is executed.

[0043] It should be noted that the first processing strategy includes: Determine whether the current temperature level of the clutch is less than the second temperature level. If so, allow receiving the C2C shift control instruction and clear the trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg; If not, AMT shifting will be forced in the next shifting process to cool the clutch.

[0044] It should be noted that the second processing strategy includes: Determine whether the current temperature level of the clutch is less than the third temperature level, and if so, allow receiving the C2C shift control instruction; If not, AMT shifting is forced in the next shifting process.

[0045] The measured data of this embodiment shows that when the driver frequently steps on the accelerator and the vehicle frequently shifts gears, the temperature of the clutch rises rapidly and continuously, and the cooling time is short, so there is no time to cool down. At this time, the AMT is used for shifting, and the clutch temperature drops rapidly. At the same time, the driving performance of the vehicle and the shifting performance are not attenuated. Figure 3 As shown, the clutch quickly drops when the AMT shifts gears, and at the same time the vehicle accelerates with a large throttle, there is still enough acceleration.

[0046] According to the hybrid DCT clutch control system of the embodiment of the present invention, the clutch is ensured not to be overheated by a shifting strategy method without increasing the maximum cooling capacity and limiting the maximum torque, while retaining excellent shifting performance and power output, which is specifically embodied in: In the case of clutch overheating, the problem of clutch overheating is solved only by switching the unique and innovative shift mode.

[0047] By confirming the current clutch temperature threshold in real time and setting the temperature level, the corresponding control strategy is switched based on the temperature level reached. When the clutch is overheated, it can be cooled down while retaining the shifting performance and driving performance, so that the performance is not attenuated.

[0048] This solution does not increase costs, including clutch and cooling costs, and can meet the target requirements without increasing cooling capacity.

[0049] Example 2 Reference Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a hybrid DCT clutch control method, which includes: Step S100, inputting multiple temperature thresholds in advance for setting multiple temperature levels; Step S200, obtaining working parameters of the current environment, wherein the working parameters include engine torque, clutch torque, engine speed, clutch speed and current actual cooling flow; Step S300, calculating the current temperature of the clutch according to the acquired working parameters; Step S400, determining a temperature level corresponding to the current temperature of the clutch, and switching a corresponding control strategy based on the temperature level; Step S500, executing the control strategy.

[0050] It should be noted that the setting of multiple temperature levels based on the input temperature threshold includes specifically setting three temperature levels: The first temperature level Temp_Lvr=1, must satisfy: 0<Temp<T1; The second temperature level Temp_Lvr=2, must meet the following conditions: T2<Temp<T3; The third temperature level Temp_Lvr=3 must satisfy: Temp>T4.

[0051] It should be noted that the control strategy for determining the corresponding temperature level according to the current temperature of the clutch and switching the corresponding control strategy based on the temperature level includes the following contents: If the current clutch temperature is at the first temperature level Temp_Lvr=1, the silent strategy is switched and no control signal is output; If the current clutch temperature is at the second temperature level Temp_Lvr=2, the shifting strategy is switched to allow the control command of C2C shifting to be received; If the current temperature of the clutch is at the third temperature level Temp_Lvr=3, the forced shift strategy is switched to force the AMT shift control command to be executed.

[0052] It should be noted that, if during the execution of the shift-permitting strategy, the current temperature of the clutch is updated to the third temperature level Temp_Lvr=3, the C2C shift operation is also allowed to be completed, and the AMT will not be forced to shift.

[0053] It should be noted that before the control system performs the required gear shift, it also includes pre-determining whether the control module receives a trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg, and executing a corresponding overheating treatment strategy according to the judgment result.

[0054] It should be noted that the corresponding overheating treatment strategy executed according to the judgment result specifically includes: If a trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg is received, the first processing strategy is executed; If the trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg is not received, the second processing strategy is executed.

[0055] It should be noted that the first processing strategy includes: Determine whether the current temperature level of the clutch is less than the second temperature level. If so, allow receiving the C2C shift control instruction and clear the trigger signal of the overheating flag Hot_flg; If not, AMT shifting will be forced in the next shifting process to cool the clutch.

[0056] It should be noted that the second processing strategy includes: Determine whether the current temperature level of the clutch is less than the third temperature level, and if so, allow receiving the C2C shift control instruction; If not, AMT shifting is forced in the next shifting process.

[0057] According to the hybrid DCT clutch control system of the embodiment of the present invention, the clutch is ensured not to be overheated by a shifting strategy method without increasing the maximum cooling capacity and limiting the maximum torque, while retaining excellent shifting performance and power output, which is specifically embodied in: In the case of clutch overheating, the problem of clutch overheating is solved through unique and innovative shift mode switching.

[0058] By confirming the current clutch temperature threshold in real time and setting the temperature level, the corresponding control strategy is switched based on the temperature level reached. When the clutch is overheated, it can be cooled down while retaining the shifting performance and driving performance, so that the performance is not attenuated.

[0059] This solution does not increase costs, including clutch and cooling costs, and can meet the target requirements without increasing cooling capacity.
