[0048] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clear, the following will further describe the present application in combination with specific embodiments and with reference to the drawings.

[0049] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in the present application should be understood as the usual meaning understood by those skilled in the art to which the present application belongs.

[0050] As described in the background section, with the improvement of living standards, cars have become a necessary means of transportation for most families. In the current market, most models are mainly positioned for family transportation. In order to meet the needs of such users, the suspension tuning generally tends to be comfortable, which causes the vehicle to be prone to obvious front and rear pitching during deceleration and parking, especially in the steering working condition, which may also cause left and right shaking. This kind of suspension tuning style that is too soft is difficult to effectively control the shaking, which brings a poor riding experience to the passengers, and even causes car sickness. Especially when parking on the side, if the vehicle is in an accelerating state due to the creep torque, and then the brake is applied after a large steering wheel input, obvious front and rear pitching and left and right shaking will occur, further reducing the riding comfort.

[0051] To solve this problem, the low-speed braking strategy needs to be adjusted to optimize the braking properties to compensate for the shaking problem caused by the suspension.

[0052] Hereinafter, the technical solutions of the present application will be further described in detail through specific embodiments.

[0053] Reference Figure 1 The vehicle braking control method flowchart provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0054] Step S101, in response to receiving a braking instruction, obtaining the real-time speed and real-time slope of the target vehicle.

[0055] Specifically, when the target vehicle receives a braking instruction (for example, the driver steps on the brake pedal), the system will immediately start obtaining the real-time speed and real-time slope of the target vehicle. The real-time speed can be obtained by a vehicle speed sensor, and the real-time slope can be obtained by a tilt sensor or GPS data of the target vehicle, etc. These data are the basis for subsequent judgment and control.

[0056] Step S102, judging whether the real-time speed is greater than the preset speed and whether the real-time slope is greater than the preset slope.

[0057] Specifically, after obtaining the real-time speed and real-time slope, the system will compare them with the preset threshold. The preset speed and the preset slope are set according to the safety and comfort requirements of the vehicle, usually considering factors such as road conditions, vehicle performance and driver's expectations.

[0058] In the embodiment of the present application, taking the preset speed of 8kph and the preset slope of 3% as an example, that is, judging whether the real-time speed is greater than 8kph and whether the real-time slope is greater than 3%.

[0059] Step S103, in response to the real-time speed being greater than the preset speed or / and the real-time slope being greater than the preset slope, calling the first braking curve and controlling the braking of the target vehicle according to the first braking curve.

[0060] Specifically, if the judgment result is that the real-time speed is greater than the preset speed or / and the real-time slope is greater than the preset slope, the system will call the first brake curve. The first brake curve is usually designed to be steep, meaning that the braking force increases rapidly with the increase of the brake pedal stroke in unit travel. Such design can ensure that the vehicle can quickly decelerate in emergency, improving safety.

[0061] In response to the real-time speed not being greater than the preset speed and the real-time slope not being greater than the preset slope, the second brake curve is called to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the second brake curve; wherein the first brake curve and the second brake curve are used to represent the relationship between the stroke of the brake pedal of the target vehicle being stepped on and the braking force of the target vehicle; the change amount of the braking force in unit travel of the second brake curve is less than the change amount of the braking force in unit travel of the first brake curve.

[0062] Specifically, if the judgment result is that the real-time speed is not greater than the preset speed and the real-time slope is not greater than the preset slope, the system will call the second brake curve. The second brake curve is relatively gentle, and the change amount of the braking force in unit travel is small. Such design can provide a more comfortable braking experience and reduce the discomfort of the driver during braking.

[0063] The system is an ECU (Electronic Control Unit), which is a key component in a car and is also known as "driving computer". Its main function is to collect vehicle running data through various sensors, and after calculation and processing, it sends control instructions to actuators to realize accurate control of various functions of the car. As the brain of the engine, the ECU collects data from various sensors of the vehicle, including signals transmitted by the brake pedal sensor. After processing, the ECU can determine the driver's braking intention and the required braking force. The brake pedal is usually equipped with a brake pedal stroke sensor and a brake pressure sensor. These two sensors can detect the degree of depression and the size of pressure of the brake pedal in real time, and transmit these signals to the vehicle ECU.

[0064] As an optional embodiment, a first correspondence relationship between the stroke of the brake pedal of the target vehicle being stepped on and the braking force of the target vehicle under the stroke is determined; a first coordinate system is established with the stroke of the brake pedal of the target vehicle being stepped on as the abscissa and the braking force of the target vehicle under the stroke as the ordinate, and the first correspondence relationship is plotted in the first coordinate system to obtain the first brake curve.

[0065] The first brake curve (DBR1) is a predetermined brake curve. The specific method can be to use the target vehicle to conduct brake tests in a laboratory or test site. At different brake pedal strokes, the braking force generated by the vehicle is measured and recorded. The measured data is sorted and analyzed to determine the mathematical relationship or correspondence between the brake pedal stroke and the braking force. This relationship can be linear or nonlinear, depending on the design and performance of the vehicle braking system. The stroke of the brake pedal is taken as the horizontal coordinate (X-axis), and the braking force of the target vehicle at this stroke is taken as the vertical coordinate (Y-axis). The range and scale of the coordinate system are set to ensure that the relationship between the brake pedal stroke and the braking force can be clearly displayed. According to the first correspondence relationship determined earlier, data points are plotted in the coordinate system. A smooth curve is used to connect these points to obtain the first brake curve. Ensure that the curve accurately reflects the actual relationship between the brake pedal stroke and the braking force.

[0066] As an optional embodiment, the first correspondence relationship is compressed according to a preset ratio to obtain a second correspondence relationship; the second correspondence relationship is plotted in the first coordinate system to obtain a second brake curve.

[0067] The second brake curve (DBR2) is also a predetermined brake curve. The specific method can be to first determine a preset ratio, which is a coefficient or ratio factor used to adjust the relationship between the brake pedal stroke and the braking force. This ratio can be determined according to the specific needs of the vehicle, the preferences of the driver, or the performance characteristics of the braking system. Multiply each brake pedal stroke value in the first correspondence relationship by the preset ratio to obtain a new stroke value. Keep the braking force value unchanged, or adjust it accordingly if necessary (but in the embodiments of the present application, the compression of the stroke is mainly concerned, so the braking force value remains unchanged). Using the compressed stroke value and the original braking force value, a second correspondence relationship is established. This new correspondence relationship will reflect the braking force change characteristics of the compressed brake pedal stroke. Further, the same coordinate system as the first brake curve is used (i.e., the first coordinate system). According to the second correspondence relationship, new data points are plotted in the coordinate system. These data points will represent the relationship between the compressed brake pedal stroke and the original braking force. A smooth curve is used to connect these new data points to obtain the second brake curve. This curve will show how the braking force changes with the stroke at the compressed brake pedal stroke.

[0068] In the embodiments of the present application, DBR2 = 80% * DBR1 is taken as an example, i.e., the preset ratio is 0.8. In addition, the correspondence relationship between the stroke and the braking force in the second brake curve (DBR2) can also be directly set according to actual needs.

[0069] It is important to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data during the experimental measurement and data analysis process. To verify the accuracy of the results, multiple experiments can be conducted and the consistency of the results can be compared. If the experimental results are found to be inconsistent with expectations or have deviations, the experimental conditions or analysis methods can be adjusted and optimized.

[0070] It is important to note that the selection of the preset ratio should be based on the actual needs of the vehicle and the performance characteristics of the braking system. A too large ratio may result in a too slow braking response, while a too small ratio may make the braking too sensitive.

[0071] As an optional embodiment, before controlling the braking of the target vehicle according to the second braking curve, further comprising: judging whether the pedal feel mode of the brake pedal feel adjustment system and the comfort braking system of the target vehicle are turned on; wherein the pedal feel mode includes comfort mode and sport mode; in response to the pedal feel mode being comfort mode and the comfort braking system being turned on, determining to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the second braking curve.

[0072] Specifically, the brake pedal feel adjustment system usually has different modes, such as comfort mode and sport mode, which affect the feeling and response of the brake pedal. By reading the system state or receiving the selection from the driver, the current pedal feel mode is determined. The driver can select to enter the comfort mode or the sport mode through the human-vehicle interaction operation in the vehicle control (such as through the buttons, knobs or voice commands on the touch screen). The comfort braking system (CST) is a technology designed to provide a more stable and comfortable braking experience. By checking the system state or receiving the signal from the system, it is determined whether the comfort braking system is turned on. If the pedal feel mode is comfort mode and the comfort braking system is turned on, it is determined to use the second braking curve (i.e. DBR2) to control the braking of the target vehicle, i.e. it is determined that the real-time speed is not greater than the preset speed and the real-time slope is not greater than the preset slope, and the system will call the execution logic of the second braking curve. If the pedal feel mode is sport mode or the comfort braking system is not turned on, the braking may need to be controlled according to other braking curves or strategies. According to the determined braking control strategy (i.e. DBR1), control signals are sent to the braking system of the vehicle to achieve the required braking effect.

[0073] As an optional embodiment, in response to the pedal feel mode being comfort mode and the comfort braking system being turned off, it is determined to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the first braking curve; in response to the pedal feel mode being sport mode and the comfort braking system being turned on, it is determined to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the first braking curve; in response to the pedal feel mode being sport mode and the comfort braking system being turned off, it is determined to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the first braking curve.

[0074] For the case where the pedal feel mode is the comfort mode and the comfort braking system is off, the driver has selected the comfort mode, but the comfort braking system is not activated. Therefore, it is decided to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the first braking curve.

[0075] For the case where the pedal feel mode is the sport mode and the comfort braking system is on, the driver has selected the sport mode, but the comfort braking system is unexpectedly activated. Although the comfort braking system is usually associated with the comfort mode, in this case, since the driver has selected the sport mode, it is decided to still control the braking according to the first braking curve, which can avoid the situation where the comfort braking system may slow down the more direct and rapid braking response required by the sport mode.

[0076] For the case where the pedal feel mode is the sport mode and the comfort braking system is off, the driver has selected the sport mode, and the comfort braking system is not activated. Therefore, it is decided to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the first braking curve. This is in line with the general requirement of the sport mode, which is to provide a more direct and dynamic driving experience.

[0077] It should be noted that the above control logic ensures the consistency of the braking control strategy under different conditions. Although the state of the comfort braking system may not meet the driver's expectations in some cases (such as the comfort braking system being activated in the sport mode), the control logic still makes decisions based on the pedal feel mode selected by the driver.

[0078] The above embodiments provide a more detailed braking control strategy, which can adjust the braking performance according to the driver's preferences and the vehicle's configuration. By combining the pedal feel mode and the state of the comfort braking system, a more personalized and comfortable driving experience can be provided for the driver. At the same time, it also provides more design flexibility and market competitiveness for vehicle manufacturers. By adding the judgment of the braking pedal feel adjustment system and the state of the comfort braking system before controlling the braking of the target vehicle according to the second braking curve, the braking control strategy can be further optimized, and the comfort and safety of driving can be improved.

[0079] As an optional embodiment, before controlling the braking of the target vehicle according to the second braking curve, the method further comprises: judging the working state of the braking pedal feel adjustment system, the comfort braking system, and the vehicle body stability control system of the target vehicle; and in response to the working state of the braking pedal feel adjustment system, the comfort braking system, and the vehicle body stability control system being normal, determining to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the second braking curve.

[0080] Specifically, the brake pedal feel adjustment system is responsible for adjusting the feel and response of the brake pedal to adapt to different driving modes and driver preferences. In this process, it is necessary to determine whether the system is in normal working condition, including the integrity and communication ability of components such as sensors, actuators and controllers. The comfort brake system aims to provide a smoother and more comfortable braking experience. It is necessary to check whether the system has been activated correctly and all its components (such as pressure sensors, solenoid valves, etc.) are within the normal working range. The Electronic Stability Controller (ESC) is used to maintain the stability and controllability of the vehicle in emergency situations. In this process, it is necessary to confirm whether the system is enabled and its sensors (such as wheel speed sensors, steering wheel angle sensors, etc.) and actuators (such as hydraulic control units, etc.) are in normal working condition.

[0081] In the embodiments of the present application, when it is detected that the real-time speed is less than 8 kph, the real-time slope is less than 3%, the pedal feel mode is the comfort mode, the comfort brake system is turned on, and the working states of the brake pedal feel adjustment system, the comfort brake system, and the vehicle body stability control system are normal, the system retrieves the second brake curve (DBR2) to perform pressure building, reduces the establishment of pipeline pressure under the same stroke, slows down the increase of brake force, thereby reducing the braking intensity and making the degree of pitch of the entire vehicle body smaller.

[0082] As an optional embodiment, in response to the abnormal working state of the brake pedal feel adjustment system or / and the comfort brake system or / and the vehicle body stability control system, it is determined to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the first brake curve.

[0083] That is, only when the brake pedal feel adjustment system, the comfort brake system, and the vehicle body stability control system are all in normal working state, it is determined to control the braking of the target vehicle according to the second brake curve. If any one of the systems fails or is abnormal, other braking control strategies may need to be taken, such as using the first brake curve or enabling the backup brake system.

[0084] After confirming that all system states are normal, control signals are sent to the braking system of the vehicle according to the second brake curve, that is, it is determined that the real-time speed is not greater than the preset speed and the real-time slope is not greater than the preset slope, the system retrieves the execution logic of the second brake curve to achieve the required braking effect.

[0085] It should be noted that when the braking control strategy changes (such as switching from the second brake curve to the first brake curve), the vehicle can provide feedback to the driver about the current state and possible impact.

[0086] The above embodiments provide a more comprehensive and safe brake control strategy, which considers the working states of multiple vehicle systems to ensure that all related systems are in a normal state before controlling the brake according to the second brake curve.

[0087] It should be noted that for vehicle models without a brake pedal feel adjustment system and a comfort brake system, the brake of the target vehicle can be controlled according to the first brake curve.
