Description
Technical Field

[0002] While pneumatic braking is a mature technology, it still suffers from drawbacks such as complex structure, high maintenance costs, and poor braking accuracy and stability. With the deepening transformation towards drive-by-wire systems, reducing complex mechanical transmission mechanisms, pursuing lighter weight, lower fuel consumption, lower costs, and simpler, faster, and more precise control have become common trends. Electromechanical braking systems (EMB), due to their simple structure, light weight, rapid response, and precise and stable control, have emerged as the next generation of vehicle braking systems and are developing rapidly. Currently, EMB systems provide limited braking force, failing to meet the high-intensity braking demands of vehicles under emergency braking, necessitating redundant design. However, most existing patents are limited to redundant structural designs for single-wheel EMBs, neglecting overall collaborative control strategies and methods for the braking system. For example, patent CN202211253003.7 designs an electromechanical hybrid braking system and control method. This patent longitudinally couples and integrates the pneumatic braking system and the electromechanical braking system at the wheel end, giving it strong fail-safe redundancy control capabilities.

[0041] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, illustrates a pneumatic-electric hybrid vehicle braking system and its control method according to embodiments of the present invention.
[0042] Figure 1 This is a pneumatic-electric hybrid vehicle braking system according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes: an air compressor 101, an air filter 102, an air storage device 103, a pressure sensor 104, a pneumatic control module 105, an EMB control module 106, a brake control unit 107, a vehicle control unit 108, and single-wheel brake modules 109, 110, 111, and 112.
[0043] Air compressor 101 is used to compress air and store it in an air tank to provide the necessary compressed air for the pneumatic braking process;
[0044] Air filtration device 102 is used to filter the air pumped in by the air compressor;
[0045] Gas storage device 103 is used to store gas filtered by the air filtration device.
[0046] Pressure sensor 104 is used to detect the pressure of compressed gas in the gas storage device;
[0047] The pneumatic control module 105 is used to control the flow control module and control the pneumatic braking.
[0048] EMB control module 106 is used to control the drive motor in the electromechanical braking system;
[0049] The vehicle control unit 108 is used to combine real-time status information of the whole vehicle, monitor the status of the whole vehicle braking system, monitor the operating status through the verification information sent by the vehicle control unit, and interact with the braking control unit to jointly calculate and control the control commands of the motor and angle valve control module and the flow control module of the electromechanical braking system.
[0050] The brake control unit 107 includes an EMB control module and a pneumatic control module, which are used to receive signal commands from the vehicle control unit, interact with the vehicle control unit, monitor the status of the four-wheel electromechanical braking system and the pneumatic braking system, and distribute the braking torque of the four wheels electromechanically / pneumatically according to the signal commands, and jointly complete the calculation and control of the control commands of the motor and flow valve control module of the four-wheel electromechanical braking system.
[0051] Single-wheel braking modules 109, 110, 111, and 112 include a flow control module, a brake chamber, and an EMB motor, used for vehicle braking operations, generating mechanical braking force and pneumatic braking force. The internal components of the single-wheel braking module include an electromechanical braking system (EMB) and a pneumatic braking system. The electromechanical braking system generates clamping force to clamp the brake disc by controlling the EMB motor, while the pneumatic braking system generates clamping force by releasing compressed air from the brake chamber to brake the vehicle.
[0052] Understandably, there are four single-wheel braking modules, one for each wheel.
[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, the angle valve control module includes: brake pedal 301, upper passage 302, lower stop passage 303, spring 304, pressure relief port 305, and pedal sensor 306.
[0054] like Figure 3 As shown, the flow control module includes: an upper passage 401, a lower stop 402, and a spring 403.
[0055] Furthermore, the angle valve control module is used to control the on / off state and opening degree of the gas path between the gas storage device and the flow control module.
[0056] Furthermore, the flow control module is used to control the on / off state and the opening degree of the air passage between the angle valve control module and the brake chamber.
[0057] Furthermore, the real-time status information of the entire vehicle includes real-time status information of the vehicle's powertrain system, real-time status information of the cabin, and real-time commands related to the vehicle's intelligent driving system and driver control.
[0058] Furthermore, the vehicle control unit receives real-time vehicle status information, identifies the driver's operating intention based on the pedal sensor information in the angle valve control module, calculates the torque of the wheel-side commands for vehicle dynamics control, completes the torque distribution of the four wheels, and transmits the distribution information and vehicle target motion commands to the brake control unit.
[0059] Furthermore, the brake control unit receives four-wheel torque distribution information from the vehicle control unit. Based on the braking torque requirement, it calculates the electromechanical / pneumatic braking distribution for the target torque of each wheel and transmits the distribution command to the pneumatic control module and the EMB control module. Specifically, electromechanical braking is prioritized during torque distribution. Pneumatic braking is only applied when the braking torque provided by electromechanical braking is insufficient to meet the braking requirements.
[0060] Furthermore, the EMB control module calculates the current command of the EMB motor based on the received torque distribution command, thereby realizing torque control of the electromechanical brake.
[0061] Furthermore, the pneumatic control module calculates the corresponding opening state of the flow control module based on the received torque distribution command, thereby realizing torque control of the pneumatic braking.
[0062] Furthermore, the electromechanical braking module specifically includes a brake motor module, a transmission module, and a friction braking module. The brake motor module generates electromagnetic torque, which is amplified by the transmission module and transmitted to the friction braking module; the friction braking module clamps the wheel brake disc to produce a braking effect.
[0063] Furthermore, the core component of the pneumatic braking module is the brake chamber. Depending on the application scenario, it may include various other modules. The pneumatic braking module includes the brake chamber, safety valve, and pressure regulating module. When compressed braking gas flows into the brake chamber, the diaphragm, screw, and inner ring move longitudinally together, thereby generating braking thrust.
[0064] Furthermore, the electromechanical braking module specifically includes a brake motor module, a transmission module, and a friction braking module. The brake motor module generates electromagnetic torque, which is amplified by the transmission module and transmitted to the friction braking module; the friction braking module clamps the wheel brake disc to produce a braking effect.
[0065] Furthermore, the pressure sensor can detect the compressed air pressure at the outlet of the gas storage device and transmit the signal to the vehicle control unit.
[0066] The pneumatic-electric hybrid vehicle braking system according to embodiments of the present invention can fully leverage the advantages of the integrated pneumatic braking system and the electromechanical braking system. While possessing fast braking response, simple structure, low maintenance cost, and guaranteed braking effect, it can also realize the system failure safety redundancy control function. Redundancy switching can be achieved during emergency high-intensity braking or in the event of a sudden failure of the electromechanical braking system, thereby improving the driving safety of the vehicle.
[0067] To achieve the above embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment also provides a pneumatic-electric hybrid vehicle braking control method, including:
[0068] S1 receives real-time vehicle status information through the vehicle control unit, identifies the driver's operating intention based on the pedal sensor information in the angle valve control module, calculates the torque of the wheel-side command for vehicle dynamics control, completes the torque distribution of the four wheels, and transmits the distribution information and vehicle target motion command to the brake control unit.
[0069] S2 receives four-wheel torque distribution information from the vehicle control unit through the brake control unit, and performs electromechanical / pneumatic braking distribution calculations on the target torque of the wheels according to the braking torque requirements, so as to transmit different torque distribution commands to the pneumatic control module and EMB control module.
[0070] S3, through the EMB control module, calculates the current command of the EMB motor based on the received corresponding torque distribution command, thereby realizing torque control of electromechanical braking;
[0071] S4, through the pneumatic control module, calculates the corresponding opening state of the flow control module based on the received corresponding torque distribution command, thereby realizing torque control of the pneumatic brake.
[0072] Specifically, the pneumatic-electric hybrid vehicle braking control method of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, the process includes the following:
[0073] First, the vehicle control unit receives real-time vehicle status information, calculates the torque of the wheel-side commands for vehicle dynamics control based on the driver's operating intentions, completes the distribution of braking torque to the four wheels, and transmits the distribution information and vehicle target motion commands to the brake control unit.
[0074] Furthermore, the brake control unit receives the four-wheel torque distribution information and the vehicle target motion command from the vehicle control unit. Based on the braking torque requirements, it performs electromechanical braking / pneumatic braking distribution calculations for the four-wheel braking torque and transmits the distribution command to the pneumatic control module and the EMB control module.
[0075] Furthermore, the EMB control module calculates the current command of the EMB motor based on the received torque distribution command, thereby realizing torque control of the electromechanical brake.
[0076] Furthermore, the pneumatic control module calculates the corresponding opening state of the flow control module based on the received torque distribution command, thereby realizing torque control of the pneumatic braking.
[0077] Furthermore, when the driver is not pressing the brake pedal, the angle valve control module is in the lower cut-off position. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the angle valve control module connects the upper passage, opening the air passage between the air reservoir and the flow control module. The brake pedal controls the opening of the upper passage of the angle valve; the greater the pedal travel, the greater the opening. When the driver releases the pedal force, the angle valve control module returns to the lower cut-off position under the action of the spring, at which point the air passage between the air reservoir and the flow control module is disconnected.
[0078] Furthermore, when the system is powered on, the flow control module overcomes the spring force and remains in the lower cut-off position. When the flow control module receives the command from the pneumatic control module, it switches from the lower cut-off position to the upper passage position. At the same time, it adjusts the opening of the passage according to the torque allocated by the pneumatic control module. When the system is powered off, the flow control module maintains the maximum opening position of the upper passage under the action of the spring force.
[0079] Furthermore, set T limit The maximum threshold value for the braking torque of the electric motor is defined as follows: When the vehicle is powered on normally and the driver depresses the brake pedal, the vehicle is in a braking state. The angle valve control module connects the upper passage, and the air passage between the air storage device and the flow control module is connected. However, the flow control module remains in the lower cut-off position, and the air pressure brake does not work. The vehicle control unit determines the actual braking torque T required by the vehicle based on the pedal sensor in the angle valve control module. The vehicle control unit determines that the actual required braking torque T < T0. limit At this time, the vehicle control unit determines that it is in normal braking mode and only sends commands to the EMB control module. The EMB control module completes the EMB braking force distribution to the four wheels according to the commands and controls the EMB motor to generate braking force. At this time, the air brake is still not working. When the vehicle control unit determines that the actual required braking torque T > T limit At this time, in emergency braking mode, the vehicle control unit distributes the braking torque of the four wheels and the EMB / pneumatic braking torque based on the brake pedal opening feedback from the pedal feel sensor. The EMB control module distributes the EMB braking force of the four wheels according to the instructions and controls the EMB motor to generate braking torque. At the same time, the pneumatic control module sends an instruction to the flow control module, which overcomes the spring force and rotates from the lower cut-off position to the upper pass position. At this time, the air passage between the air storage device and the brake chamber is connected, and the pneumatic braking works. The opening of the passage is adjusted according to the torque distributed by the pneumatic control module to adjust the magnitude of the pneumatic braking torque.
[0080] Furthermore, when the driver releases the brake pedal, the angle valve control module first returns from the upper passage to the lower stop, while the flow control module remains in its original position. At this time, the air storage device and the brake chamber are connected to the atmosphere through the pressure relief port, the air pressure in the brake chamber returns to atmospheric pressure, and the air pressure braking stops. Subsequently, the pneumatic control module sends a command to the flow control module, and the flow control module switches from the upper passage to the lower stop position, the air passage between the air storage device and the brake chamber is disconnected, and the air pressure braking returns to the non-operating state.
[0081] Furthermore, when the vehicle loses power due to an accident or component failure, both the pneumatic control module and the EMB control module cannot function properly. At this time, the flow control module rotates from the lower stop to the maximum opening position of the upper passage under the action of spring force. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the angle valve control module rotates from the lower stop to the upper passage position. At this time, the air passage between the air storage device and the brake chamber is connected, and the passage opening of the angle valve control module can be adjusted in real time according to the pedal travel of the driver. The vehicle can also achieve air pressure braking of different torques even when the power is off.
[0082] The pneumatic-electric hybrid vehicle braking control method according to embodiments of the present invention can fully leverage the advantages of the integrated pneumatic braking system and the electromechanical braking system. While possessing fast braking response, simple structure, low maintenance cost, and guaranteed braking effect, it can also realize the system failure safety redundancy control function. Redundancy switching can be achieved during emergency high-intensity braking or in the event of a sudden failure of the electromechanical braking system, thereby improving the driving safety of the vehicle.
