[0040] S101, determining that a rear wheel steering jam occurs on the vehicle;

[0041] S102: If the rear wheel steering stuck fault is caused by the rear wheel steering motor being stuck, the vehicle is controlled according to the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed.

[0042] It is feasible to obtain the vehicle speed and rear wheel steering information of the vehicle, and detect in real time whether the vehicle has a rear wheel steering stuck fault.

[0043] If the vehicle has a rear wheel steering jam fault, determine whether the rear wheel steering jam fault is non-mechanical jam.

[0044] If the machine is stuck, and the rear-wheel steering motor is stuck, the vehicle will be controlled by the rear-wheel steering redundancy system according to the number of stuck rear-wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed.

[0045] It should be noted that non-mechanical jamming at least includes rear wheel steering angle sensor failure, and mechanical jamming at least includes rear wheel steering motor jamming failure.

[0046] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first vehicle speed is the maximum vehicle speed at which the rear wheel steering motor is stuck without affecting driving safety, and the preset deflection angle is the maximum rear wheel stuck angle at which the vehicle continues to drive after the other rear wheel returns to the neutral position.

[0047] In an embodiment of the present invention, the second vehicle speed is greater than the first vehicle speed, wherein the second vehicle speed is a vehicle speed dividing line between a high-speed mode and a low-speed mode of the vehicle.

[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle is controlled according to the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed, including:

[0049] If there is only one stuck rear-wheel steering motor, the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the first speed, and the rear wheel steering angle corresponding to the stuck rear-wheel steering motor is less than or equal to the preset deflection angle, the unstuck rear-wheel steering motor is controlled to drive the corresponding rear wheel to return to the neutral position, and the vehicle speed is limited to below the first speed.

[0050] It is feasible that if the number of stuck rear-wheel steering motors is one, the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the first vehicle speed, and the rear wheel steering angle A corresponding to the stuck rear-wheel steering motor is less than or equal to the preset deflection angle A1, the vehicle enters the "Fault1" state, and the first fault state bit is sent to the vehicle's braking system through the rear-wheel steering redundant system, and the rear wheel corresponding to the rear wheel steering motor that is not stuck is driven to return to the center position through the motor control of the rear-wheel steering redundant system, and the vehicle's drive motor is controlled by the braking system to limit the vehicle's speed to below the first vehicle speed.

[0051] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle is controlled according to the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed, including:

[0052] If there is only one stuck rear-wheel steering motor, the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the first speed, and the rear wheel steering angle corresponding to the stuck rear-wheel steering motor is greater than the preset deflection angle, the unstuck rear-wheel steering motor is controlled to drive the corresponding rear wheel to return to the neutral position, and the vehicle speed is limited to below the first speed, and the vehicle is controlled to drive to a safe area.

[0053] It is feasible that if the number of stuck rear-wheel steering motors is one, the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the first vehicle speed, and the rear wheel steering angle A corresponding to the stuck rear-wheel steering motor is greater than the preset deflection angle A1, the vehicle enters the "Fault2" state, and the second fault state bit is sent to the vehicle's braking system and advanced driving assistance system (ADAS) through the rear-wheel steering redundancy system, and the rear wheel corresponding to the unstuck rear-wheel steering motor is driven to return to the center position through the motor control of the rear-wheel steering redundancy system. At the same time, the vehicle's drive motor is controlled through the braking system to limit the vehicle's speed to below the first vehicle speed, and the vehicle is controlled to travel to a safe area through the ADAS system.

[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, controlling a vehicle to travel to a safe area includes:

[0055] Through the advanced driver assistance ADAS system, the vehicle's front-wheel steering system and the unstuck rear-wheel steering motors are controlled to drive the corresponding rear wheels, and the vehicle is controlled to travel at a speed below the first vehicle speed.

[0056] It is feasible that when the vehicle enters the "Fault2" state, the second fault status bit can be sent to the multimedia system through the rear-wheel steering redundant system. After the multimedia system receives the second fault status bit, a pop-up window and voice prompts the driver whether to choose to let the ADAS system take over the vehicle and park the vehicle in a safe area. After the ADAS system receives the second fault status bit and the takeover instruction, the ADAS system controls the vehicle's speed to be below the first speed, and drives the vehicle to a safe area by controlling the vehicle's front-wheel steering system and the rear wheels corresponding to the rear-wheel steering motor that is not stuck.

[0057] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle is controlled according to the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed, including:

[0058] If there is only one stuck rear-wheel steering motor, the vehicle speed is greater than the first speed and less than the second speed, and the rear wheel steering angle corresponding to the stuck rear-wheel steering motor is less than or equal to the preset deflection angle, the unstuck rear-wheel steering motor is controlled to drive the corresponding rear wheel to return to the neutral position, and the vehicle is controlled to decelerate so that the vehicle speed is below the first speed, and the vehicle speed is limited to below the first speed.

[0059] It is feasible that if the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors is one, the vehicle speed is greater than the first speed and less than the second speed, and the rear wheel steering angle A corresponding to the stuck rear wheel steering motor is less than or equal to the preset deflection angle A1, the vehicle enters the "Fault3" state, and the third fault state bit can be sent to the vehicle's braking system through the rear wheel steering redundancy system. The rear wheel corresponding to the rear wheel steering motor that is not stuck is driven to return to the neutral position through the motor control of the rear wheel steering redundancy system, and the driving motor of the vehicle is controlled through the braking system to decelerate the driving motor at a certain rate, reduce the vehicle speed to below the first speed, and limit the vehicle speed to below the first speed.

[0060] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle is controlled according to the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed, including:

[0061] If there is only one stuck rear-wheel steering motor, the vehicle speed is greater than the first speed and less than the second speed, and the rear wheel steering angle corresponding to the stuck rear-wheel steering motor is greater than the preset deflection angle, the unstuck rear-wheel steering motor is controlled to drive the corresponding rear wheel to return to the neutral position, and the vehicle is controlled to decelerate so that the vehicle speed is below the first speed, and the vehicle speed is limited to below the first speed, and the vehicle is controlled to drive to a safe area.

[0062] It is feasible that if there is only one stuck rear wheel steering motor, the vehicle speed is greater than the first speed and less than the second speed, and the rear wheel steering angle A corresponding to the stuck rear wheel steering motor is greater than the preset deflection angle A1, the vehicle enters the "Fault4" state, and the fourth fault state bit can be sent to the braking system and the ADAS system through the rear wheel steering redundancy system. The motor control of the rear wheel steering redundancy system drives the corresponding rear wheel of the unstuck rear wheel steering motor to return to the neutral position, and at the same time, the braking system controls the driving motor of the vehicle to decelerate the driving motor at a certain rate, reduce the vehicle speed to below the first speed, and limit the vehicle speed to below the first speed, and control the vehicle to drive to a safe area through the ADAS system.

[0063] In one embodiment of the present invention, controlling a vehicle to travel to a safe area includes:

[0064] Through the advanced driver assistance ADAS system, the vehicle's front-wheel steering system and the unstuck rear-wheel steering motors are controlled to drive the corresponding rear wheels, and the vehicle is controlled to travel at a speed below the first vehicle speed.

[0065] It is feasible that when the vehicle enters the "Fault4" state, the fourth fault status bit can be sent to the multimedia system through the rear-wheel steering redundant system. After the multimedia system receives the fourth fault status bit, a pop-up window and voice prompts the driver whether to choose to let the ADAS system take over the vehicle and park the vehicle in a safe area. After the ADAS system receives the fourth fault status bit and the takeover instruction, the ADAS system controls the vehicle's speed to be below the first speed, and drives the vehicle to a safe area by controlling the vehicle's front-wheel steering system and the rear wheels corresponding to the rear-wheel steering motor that is not stuck.

[0066] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle is controlled according to the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed, including:

[0067] If the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors is two and the vehicle speed is less than the second vehicle speed, different torques are allocated to the front and rear wheels of the vehicle to keep the vehicle moving in a straight line, control the vehicle to decelerate to 0, and control the vehicle to drive to a safe area.

[0068] It is feasible that if there are two stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed is less than the second vehicle speed, the vehicle enters the "Fault5" state. When the left and right rear wheel steering motors are stuck at the same time, the fifth fault state bit can be sent to the vehicle's body posture stabilization system and braking system through the rear wheel steering redundancy system. The body posture stabilization system uses the vehicle's yaw angular velocity as the control target to control the vehicle's drive motor to distribute different torques to the front and rear wheels to keep the vehicle moving in a straight line. At the same time, the vehicle's drive motor is controlled through the braking system to control the vehicle to decelerate until the vehicle stops. And the ADAS system controls the vehicle to drive to a safe area.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present invention, before controlling the vehicle to travel to the safety area, the method further includes:

[0070] The advanced driver assistance ADAS system turns the vehicle's front wheels to the same direction and angle as the rear wheels.

[0071] It is feasible that when the vehicle enters the "Fault5" state, the rear-wheel steering redundant system can also send the fifth fault status bit to the multimedia system. After the multimedia system receives the fifth fault status bit, a pop-up window and voice prompts the driver whether to choose to let the ADAS system take over the vehicle and park the vehicle in a safe area. After the ADAS system receives the fifth fault status bit and the takeover instruction, the EPS (front-wheel steering) system is controlled by the ADAS system to rotate the front wheels to the same direction and angle as the rear wheels, and the vehicle is controlled to drive the vehicle to a safe area in the "crab mode".

[0072] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle is controlled according to the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed, including:

[0073] If there is only one stuck rear-wheel steering motor and the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the second vehicle speed, the vehicle is controlled to decelerate so that the vehicle speed is below the second vehicle speed, and the rear-wheel steering motors that are not stuck are controlled to rotate to positions with opposite directions and the same angles, and after the vehicle speed is decelerated to below the first vehicle speed, the rear-wheel steering motors that are not stuck drive the corresponding wheels to return to the neutral position.

[0074] It is feasible that if the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors is one and the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the second vehicle speed, the vehicle enters the "Fault6" state, and the fault state bit can be sent to the vehicle's braking system through the rear wheel steering redundant system. The vehicle's drive motor is controlled by the braking system to decelerate the drive motor at a certain rate, and the vehicle's speed is reduced to below the second vehicle speed. At the same time, the rear wheel steering redundant system's motor controls the unstuck rear wheel steering motor to rotate to a position with the opposite direction and the same angle (relative to the direction and angle of the stuck rear wheel steering motor), and after the vehicle speed is decelerated to below the first vehicle speed, the rear wheel steering redundant system's motor controls the unstuck rear wheel steering motor to drive the corresponding wheel back to the center position.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle is controlled according to the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed, including:

[0076] If there are two stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the second vehicle speed, different torques are allocated to the front and rear wheels of the vehicle to keep the vehicle moving in a straight line, and the vehicle is controlled to decelerate so that the vehicle speed is below the first vehicle speed, and the vehicle is controlled to drive to a safe area.

[0077] It is feasible if the number of stuck rear-wheel steering motors is two and the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the second speed. If the motors on both sides are stuck, the vehicle enters the "Fault7" state, and the fault status bit can be sent to the vehicle's body posture stabilization system and braking system through the rear-wheel steering redundancy system. The body posture stabilization system uses the vehicle's yaw angular velocity as the control target to control the drive motor to distribute different torques to the front and rear wheels to keep the vehicle moving in a straight line. At the same time, the vehicle's drive motor is controlled through the braking system to decelerate the drive motor at a certain rate, reducing the vehicle's speed to below the first speed. And the ADAS system is used to control the vehicle to drive to a safe area.

[0078] In one embodiment of the present invention, before controlling the vehicle to travel to the safety area, the vehicle control method further includes:

[0079] The advanced driver assistance ADAS system turns the vehicle's front wheels to the same direction and angle as the rear wheels.

[0080] It is feasible that when the vehicle enters the "Fault7" state, the seventh fault status bit can be sent to the multimedia system through the rear-wheel steering redundant system. After the multimedia system receives the seventh fault status bit, a pop-up window and voice prompts the driver whether to choose to let the ADAS system take over the vehicle and park the vehicle in a safe area. After the ADAS system receives the seventh fault status bit and the takeover instruction, the EPS (front-wheel steering) system is controlled by the ADAS system to rotate the front wheels to the same direction and angle as the rear wheels, and the vehicle is controlled to drive the vehicle to a safe area in the "crab mode".

[0081] It should be noted that the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the second vehicle speed and is in high-speed mode. In this mode, the deflection angle of the rear-wheel steering motor cannot exceed the preset deflection angle.

[0082] In one embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle control method further includes: controlling the unstuck rear wheel steering motor to drive the corresponding rear wheel to return to the neutral position while controlling the vehicle to issue a first reminder message.

[0083] It can be implemented that when the vehicle enters the "Fault1" or "Fault3" state, the first fault state bit or the third fault state bit can be sent to the multimedia system through the rear wheel steering redundancy system to issue an alarm to remind the driver through the multimedia system.

[0084] In one embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle control method further includes: allocating different torques to the front and rear wheels of the vehicle while controlling the vehicle to issue a second reminder message.

[0085] It is feasible that when the vehicle enters the "Fault 5" or "Fault 7" state, the fifth fault state bit or the seventh fault state bit may be sent to the lighting control system through the rear wheel steering redundancy system, and the double flash warning lights may be turned on through the lighting control system.

[0086] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle control method also includes:

[0087] If the rear wheel steering stuck fault is caused by a main rear wheel angle sensor failure, the backup rear wheel angle sensor will be activated for vehicle steering control.

[0088] It is feasible to obtain the rear wheel angle sensor check bit information while obtaining the vehicle speed and rear wheel steering information, so that when the vehicle has a rear wheel steering stuck fault and it is determined that the rear wheel steering stuck fault is non-mechanical, it is determined whether the main rear wheel angle sensor is faulty according to the rear wheel angle sensor check bit information. When it is determined that the main rear wheel angle sensor is faulty, the backup rear wheel angle sensor is enabled for vehicle steering control.

[0089] The redundant rear-wheel steering system in the embodiment of the present invention can match different control schemes according to different vehicle operating conditions when the rear-wheel steering motor is stuck, thereby improving the vehicle operation safety.

[0090] The vehicle control method of the embodiment of the present invention formulates different control schemes for different vehicle states when the rear wheel steering gear is stuck with different types and degrees. The vehicle state is judged in detail when the rear wheel steering is stuck, and after the rear wheel steering stuck fault judgment is completed, different control processing logics are adopted for different working conditions, which greatly reduces the vehicle safety risk caused by the stuck rear wheel steering gear, and has the advantages of wide applicability and high working condition coverage.

[0091] The invention provides a control device for a vehicle.

[0093] The determination module 10 determines that the vehicle has a rear wheel steering stuck fault; the control module 20 controls the vehicle according to the number of stuck rear wheel steering motors and the vehicle speed if the rear wheel steering stuck fault is caused by the stuck rear wheel steering motor.

[0094] It should be noted that other specific implementations of the vehicle control device provided in the embodiment of the present invention may refer to other specific implementations of the vehicle control method in the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention.

[0095] The vehicle control device of the embodiment of the present invention has formulated different control schemes for different vehicle states when the rear wheel steering gear has different types and degrees of stuck faults. The vehicle state is judged in detail when the rear wheel steering stuck fault occurs. After the rear wheel steering stuck fault judgment is completed, different control processing logics are adopted for different working conditions, which greatly reduces the vehicle safety risk caused by the stuck rear wheel steering gear, and has the advantages of wide applicability and high working condition coverage.
