[0002] For the hydraulic brake system of the vehicle, vacuum filling is required to prevent residual gas in the brake system when filling the brake fluid. However, under certain non-vacuum filling conditions, after filling the brake fluid, if the gas remaining in the pipeline is not removed, it will affect the vehicle's braking performance and safety performance. At this time, two people are required to cooperate, one person repeatedly steps on the brake pedal, and the other person relaxes the bleed valve to let the gas and brake fluid in the pipeline be discharged together, and observe the state of the brake fluid flowing out of the brake caliper drain screw to determine whether the gas has been exhausted. When it is determined that no gas has been discharged, tighten the bleed valve. This method may lead to misjudgment.

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] It should be understood that the references to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" throughout the specification mean that the specific features, structures, or characteristics associated with the embodiment are included in at least one embodiment of the present application. Therefore, the references to "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" appearing throughout the specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, these specific features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0025] In the various embodiments of the present application, it should be understood that the size of the serial numbers of the following processes does not mean the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of the present application.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a hydraulic brake system diagnosis method, the method comprising:

[0027] Step 101 : during the vehicle braking process, obtaining a target pressure corresponding to a master cylinder of a hydraulic brake system.

[0028] Specifically, the master cylinder is the core component of the hydraulic brake system, usually located under the driver's seat. When the driver steps on the brake pedal, the master cylinder converts the mechanical movement of the pedal into hydraulic pressure, which is then transmitted to the brake oil pipe, and then the hydraulic pressure is transmitted to the brake of each wheel through the brake oil pipe, thereby generating braking force. During the vehicle braking process, the target pressure corresponding to the master cylinder is obtained. Here, the target pressure is the hydraulic pressure that the master cylinder needs to establish.

[0029] Step 102 , when the master cylinder starts to build up pressure, the pressure in the master cylinder is monitored to obtain pressure change information.

[0030] After obtaining the target pressure of the master cylinder, when the master cylinder starts to build pressure, the pressure in the master cylinder can be monitored by a pressure sensor arranged in the master cylinder to obtain pressure change information. The pressure change information here can be the change of the pressure in the master cylinder over time.

[0031] It should be noted that as the vehicle speed changes and the opening of the brake pedal changes, the target pressure corresponding to the master cylinder changes. The master cylinder sets the pressure in the master cylinder to the target pressure by building up pressure.

[0032] Step 103: judging whether the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds a target threshold value according to the pressure change information and the target pressure.

[0033] After obtaining the target pressure and pressure change information, it is possible to determine whether the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds the target threshold based on the pressure change information and the target pressure, wherein the target threshold is the maximum acceptable gas residual amount, and the target threshold needs to be calibrated based on testing and other means, and this application does not make any specific limitations.

[0034] Step 104: When the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds the target threshold, a fault warning signal is output.

[0035] Specifically, if the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds the target threshold, a fault reminder signal is output to remind the user that after adding brake fluid, there is still gas in the master cylinder and timely maintenance is required. The fault reminder signal can be output by lighting a brake system fault light on the instrument.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present application, the target pressure and actual pressure change information of the master cylinder are obtained when the vehicle is braking, and then whether the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds a threshold is determined based on the target pressure and the pressure change information. When it is determined that the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds the target threshold, a fault reminder signal is output to prompt the user to inspect the vehicle, thereby avoiding the problem of reduced braking performance of the vehicle due to inaccurate subjective judgment of the residual gas amount after manual filling of brake fluid without vacuum filling, thereby improving the safety performance of the vehicle.

[0037] In an optional embodiment of the present application, obtaining a target pressure corresponding to a master cylinder of a hydraulic brake system includes:

[0038] Get brake pedal travel information;

[0039] determining a required braking force according to the brake pedal travel information;

[0040] The target pressure is determined according to the required braking force.

[0041] Specifically, during the braking process, when obtaining the target pressure corresponding to the master cylinder, the brake pedal travel information can be collected through the brake pedal sensor, and the brake pedal travel information is used to characterize the pedal displacement information generated by the brake pedal being stepped on. Then, the required braking force is determined according to the brake pedal travel information, wherein the pedal displacement corresponding to the brake pedal travel information and the required braking force are positively correlated. After determining the required braking force, the target pressure in the master cylinder can be determined according to the required braking force.

[0042] The above implementation scheme of the present application determines the required braking force through the brake pedal travel information, and then determines the target pressure of the master cylinder. It can directly use the data collected during the operation of the brake control system without adding additional sensors, thus saving hardware costs.

[0043] In an optional embodiment of the present application, when the vehicle includes a brake energy recovery system, obtaining a target pressure corresponding to a master cylinder of the hydraulic brake system includes:

[0044] detecting the speed of the vehicle;

[0045] When the vehicle speed is less than a preset vehicle speed threshold, obtaining brake pedal travel information;

[0046] determining a target braking force corresponding to the hydraulic brake system according to the brake pedal stroke information;

[0047] A target pressure corresponding to the master cylinder is determined according to the target braking force.

[0048] Specifically, when the vehicle includes a braking energy recovery system, the vehicle is an electric vehicle, and the braking energy recovery system here can be an electric braking system. When the vehicle needs braking force, the hydraulic braking system and the braking energy recovery system each allocate a portion of the braking force, so that the vehicle enters a stable braking state while recovering the vehicle's kinetic energy. Normally, when the brake pedal is stepped on and the vehicle speed drops to a preset speed threshold, the motor's operating efficiency is low and the recoverable energy is reduced. Then the braking force generated by the braking energy recovery system gradually decreases as the vehicle speed decreases. At this time, the hydraulic braking system needs to gradually compensate to meet the vehicle's braking force requirements. The preset speed threshold here can be a value between 10km / h and 20km / h, for example, it can be 10km / h. Since the hydraulic brake system generates braking force to compensate for the vehicle's braking force requirements only when the vehicle speed drops to a preset speed threshold, it is possible to detect whether there is residual gas in the master cylinder when the hydraulic brake system starts working. In other words, the vehicle speed can be detected. When it is detected that the vehicle speed is less than the preset speed threshold, the brake pedal travel information is obtained, and then the target braking force corresponding to the hydraulic brake system is determined based on the brake pedal travel information, and then the target pressure corresponding to the master cylinder in the hydraulic brake system is determined.

[0049] In the above implementation scheme of the present application, when the vehicle includes a brake energy recovery system, the target pressure corresponding to the master cylinder can be determined when the vehicle speed drops below a preset speed threshold, so that the hydraulic brake system can be detected in time to see if there is a fault, thereby avoiding affecting the braking performance of the vehicle and improving driving safety.

[0050] On the basis of the above embodiment, the present application further provides an optional embodiment, which determines the target braking force corresponding to the hydraulic brake system according to the brake pedal stroke information, including:

[0051] determining a required braking force according to the brake pedal travel information;

[0052] Acquire a first braking force generated by a braking energy recovery system;

[0053] The target braking force is determined according to the required braking force and the first braking force.

[0054] Specifically, when the vehicle includes a brake energy recovery system, in the process of determining the target braking force of the hydraulic brake system according to the brake pedal information, the required braking force of the vehicle can be determined according to the brake pedal stroke information. Since the braking force generated by the brake energy recovery system is gradually withdrawn at this time, and the hydraulic brake system gradually compensates, the required braking force at this time includes two parts, one part is generated by the brake energy recovery system, that is, the first braking force, and the other part is generated by the hydraulic brake system, that is, the target braking force. After determining the required braking force, the first braking force is obtained, and then the target braking force corresponding to the hydraulic brake system can be determined according to the required braking force and the first braking force.

[0055] In the above implementation scheme of the present application, when determining the target braking force, it is necessary to determine the required braking force and the first braking force, so that when the hydraulic braking system starts to compensate for the braking force, the target braking force required to be provided by the hydraulic braking system can be determined, and then when the hydraulic braking system starts to build pressure, it is possible to timely diagnose whether there is residual gas in the master cylinder of the hydraulic braking system.

[0056] In an optional embodiment of the present application, judging whether the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds a target threshold value according to the pressure change information and the target pressure includes:

[0057] Acquire a first moment corresponding to when the pressure in the master cylinder reaches the target pressure;

[0058] determining a first pressure corresponding to the master cylinder at the first moment according to the pressure change information;

[0059] When the difference between the first pressure and the target pressure is greater than a preset pressure threshold, determining a second time corresponding to a preset pressure fluctuation value occurring in the master cylinder according to the pressure change information;

[0060] Obtaining the time interval between the second moment and the first moment;

[0061] Obtaining a target duration corresponding to the target threshold;

[0062] When the time interval is greater than the target time length, it is determined that the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds a target threshold.

[0063] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, curve L1 is the ideal curve when the master cylinder builds pressure, and curve L2 is the actual pressure building curve obtained based on the pressure change information. When judging whether the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds the target threshold value according to the pressure change information corresponding to the master cylinder and the target pressure P0, first obtain the first moment t1 corresponding to the pressure in the master cylinder reaching the target pressure P0, that is, when there is no air remaining in the master cylinder, obtain the time required for the master cylinder to build pressure from the beginning to the pressure reaching the target pressure. This time is determined by calculation, and then the time corresponding to the pressure reaching the target pressure, that is, the first moment t1, can be determined through this time and the current time. After determining the first moment t1, the actual pressure value of the pressure in the master cylinder at the first moment t1, that is, the first pressure P1, can be obtained through the pressure change information. If there is no air remaining in the master cylinder, that is, the master cylinder can build pressure normally, the first pressure P1 should be approximately equal to the target pressure P0. However, if there is air remaining in the master cylinder, the difference between the first pressure P1 and the target pressure P0 at the first moment t1 is greater than the preset pressure threshold. At this time, the braking force generated by the hydraulic braking system cannot compensate in time for the lack of required braking force caused by the gradual decrease in the braking force generated by the brake energy recovery system. The hydraulic braking system will increase the motor speed to speed up the pressure building. The motor here refers to the motor used for master cylinder pressure building in the hydraulic braking system. However, when the pressure is built quickly, pressure overshoot will occur, resulting in pressure fluctuations, that is, the pressure in the master cylinder will reach the preset pressure fluctuation value P2, wherein P2=P0+△P, △P is the difference between the preset pressure fluctuation value generated after the motor speed is increased and the target pressure, and the △P can be set in advance, so as to obtain the preset pressure fluctuation value P2 according to P0 and △P. At this time, the second time t2 corresponding to the preset pressure fluctuation value P2 of the master cylinder pressure can be determined through the pressure change information, and then the time interval between the second time t2 and the first time t1 can be obtained.

[0064] Furthermore, the target threshold is the maximum acceptable gas residual amount. According to the target threshold, the pressure compensation time corresponding to the target threshold, i.e., the target duration, can be determined. When the time interval between the second moment t2 and the first moment t1 is greater than the target duration, it indicates that the residual gas in the master cylinder is greater than the target threshold, i.e., the residual gas in the master cylinder is greater than the maximum acceptable gas residual amount. At this time, a fault reminder message needs to be output to remind the driver that the braking performance of the vehicle is affected due to the residual gas in the master cylinder, and timely maintenance is required.

[0065] In the above implementation scheme of the present application, the first moment is determined by the target pressure, and then the first pressure is determined. Then, by comparing the first pressure with the target pressure, it can be determined whether there is any gas remaining in the master cylinder. Then, by determining the second moment when the pressure fluctuates, the time interval is obtained. By judging the time interval and the target duration, it is determined whether the residual gas exceeds the target threshold value. Therefore, by detecting the gas pressure in the master cylinder during the pressure building process, self-diagnosis of the residual gas in the master cylinder is achieved.

[0066] In an optional embodiment of the present application, obtaining the first moment corresponding to when the pressure in the master cylinder reaches the target pressure includes:

[0067] Acquire a first rotation speed corresponding to a motor of the hydraulic brake system;

[0068] determining a first time required for the pressure in the master cylinder to reach the target pressure according to the first speed and the target pressure;

[0069] The first time is determined according to the first duration and the current time.

[0070] Specifically, when obtaining the first moment corresponding to the pressure in the master cylinder reaching the target pressure, it is necessary to obtain the first speed corresponding to the motor in the hydraulic brake system, and then determine the pressure building time based on the first speed and the target pressure, that is, the first time required for the pressure in the master cylinder to reach the target pressure, and then determine the first moment based on the first time and the current moment. The first moment here is the moment when the pressure in the master cylinder reaches the target pressure when there is no gas remaining in the master cylinder obtained by calculation.

[0071] The above implementation scheme of the present application can directly obtain data, i.e., the first rotational speed, from the hydraulic braking system when determining the first moment, and then calculate the first moment, so as to facilitate determining whether there is residual gas in the master cylinder based on the first moment and pressure change information, and whether the braking force generated during the pressure building process of the master cylinder can meet the required braking force.

[0072] In an optional embodiment of the present application, obtaining a target duration corresponding to the target threshold includes:

[0073] Obtaining a current rotation speed corresponding to a motor of the hydraulic brake system;

[0074] The target duration is determined according to the current rotation speed, the target threshold value and the preset pressure fluctuation value.

[0075] Specifically, when obtaining the target duration, it is also necessary to obtain the current speed of the motor in the hydraulic brake system, where the current speed is the speed after the motor increases when the braking force generated by the hydraulic brake system fails to compensate for the required braking force in time. Then, the target duration can be determined based on the current speed, the target threshold, and the preset pressure fluctuation value.

[0076] It should be noted that the target duration is the time it takes for the motor in the hydraulic brake system to control the master cylinder pressure to reach the preset pressure fluctuation value at the current speed when the acceptable gas residual amount is the target threshold. The target duration is determined by the target threshold, the current motor speed and the preset pressure fluctuation value.

[0077] The above-mentioned implementation scheme of the present application obtains the current speed of the motor and determines the target duration based on the current speed, the target threshold and the preset pressure fluctuation value, so that the time interval between the second moment and the first moment can be compared with the target duration to determine whether the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds the target threshold. Then, when the residual gas in the master cylinder exceeds the target threshold, a fault reminder signal can be output to prompt the user to inspect the vehicle, so as to avoid the problem of reduced braking performance of the vehicle due to inaccurate subjective judgment of the residual gas amount after manual filling of brake fluid without vacuum filling, thereby improving the safety performance of the vehicle.

[0078] The above introduces the hydraulic brake system diagnostic method provided in the embodiment of the present application.
