[0030] Embodiment One

[0031] Figure 1 A flowchart of a control method of a gearbox oil pump is provided for Embodiment One of the application. The method can be used to control the gearbox oil pump of a vehicle electric drive system. The method can be executed by a control device of the gearbox oil pump, which can be implemented by software and / or hardware and is generally integrated on an electronic device, such as a controller, in this embodiment.

[0032] As shown in FIG. 1, the control method of the gearbox oil pump provided by Embodiment One of the application includes the following steps: Figure 1

[0033] S110, obtaining a vehicle state.

[0034] The vehicle state includes, but is not limited to, a vehicle start-stop state and a gearbox temperature. The vehicle start-stop state can be understood as the running state of the vehicle, i.e., the vehicle is in a state of starting, stopping, or driving, etc. The vehicle start-stop state can be detected by a vehicle controller and sent to the control device of the gearbox oil pump. The gearbox temperature refers to the internal temperature of the gearbox, which can also be understood as the oil pump environment temperature. The gearbox temperature can be detected by a temperature sensor in the gearbox and sent to the control device of the gearbox oil pump. ​

[0035] S120: Determine an oil pump control mode according to the vehicle state.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present invention, different vehicle states correspond to different oil pump control modes. After confirming the current vehicle state, the oil pump control mode required by the current vehicle state can be determined according to the current vehicle state.

[0037] For example, before a vehicle leaves the factory, bench testing can be used to determine lubricating oil flow requirements to meet different vehicle start-stop conditions and / or transmission temperatures. Different lubricating oil flow requirements correspond to different oil pump control modes, thereby establishing a correspondence between different vehicle conditions and oil pump control modes. In actual vehicle use, the oil pump control mode corresponding to the current vehicle condition can be determined based on this correspondence.

[0038] S130 : Select a corresponding oil pump control strategy according to the oil pump control mode.

[0039] Furthermore, each oil pump control mode corresponds to a different oil pump control strategy, and there can be a one-to-one correspondence between oil pump control modes and oil pump control strategies. After the oil pump control mode is determined, the oil pump control strategy corresponding to that oil pump control mode can be directly selected. The oil pump control strategy for each oil pump control mode can also be derived through bench testing.

[0040] S140: Control the oil pump according to the oil pump control strategy.

[0041] By executing the selected oil pump control strategy, the lubricating oil flow provided by the oil pump can meet the lubricating oil flow demand under the current vehicle state.

[0042] The embodiments of the present invention do not limit the specific design of the above-mentioned oil pump control mode and the corresponding oil pump control strategy, and those skilled in the art may design them according to actual tests.

[0043] A first embodiment of the present invention provides a transmission oil pump control method. The method first obtains the vehicle status, including the vehicle start / stop status and transmission temperature; second, determines the oil pump control mode based on the vehicle status; then, selects the corresponding oil pump control strategy based on the oil pump control mode; and finally, controls the oil pump according to the oil pump control strategy. This method allows the oil pump to be controlled based on the actual vehicle status, meeting the lubricating oil flow requirements of various transmission components while reducing the oil pump's energy consumption. This facilitates control of the oil pump, achieving precise oil supply to the transmission, and efficient heat dissipation.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] Figure 2A flowchart of a control method of a gearbox oil pump provided by the second embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure, and the second embodiment is optimized on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments. In the second embodiment, (S120) is further specified as: S220, determining a first oil pump control mode when the vehicle is in a starting but not driving state; (S130) is further specified as: S230, selecting a first oil pump control strategy according to the first oil pump control mode; in the first oil pump control strategy, the oil pump is intermittently operated; (S140) is further specified as: S240, intermittently controlling the oil pump according to the first oil pump control strategy. The details of the second embodiment not mentioned above can be referred to the first embodiment.

[0046] As shown in the figure, the control method of the gearbox oil pump provided by the second embodiment of the present application comprises the following steps: Figure 2

[0047] S210, obtaining a vehicle state.

[0048] The vehicle state comprises a vehicle start-stop state and a gearbox temperature.

[0049] S220, determining a first oil pump control mode when the vehicle is in a starting but not driving state.

[0050] In the second embodiment of the present application, whether the vehicle is in a starting but not driving state can be determined according to the vehicle start-stop state. The starting but not driving state means that the vehicle is in an ignition starting state, but the driver does not step on the accelerator and the vehicle does not drive.

[0051] When it is determined that the vehicle is in a starting but not driving state, the oil pump control mode required by the state is determined as the first oil pump control mode.

[0052] S230, selecting a first oil pump control strategy according to the first oil pump control mode.

[0053] Further, the first oil pump control mode is correspondingly provided with the first oil pump control strategy, and in the first oil pump control strategy, the oil pump is intermittently operated. In other words, in the first oil pump control strategy, the oil pump is intermittently started to achieve intermittent lubrication.

[0054] When the vehicle is in a starting but not driving state, a large lubricating oil flow is not required. In this state, the oil pump is intermittently controlled to ensure the establishment of the oil film of the gearbox gear, that is, to ensure the lubrication of the gear, and to make the oil pump have low energy consumption.

[0055] S240, intermittently controlling the oil pump according to the first oil pump control strategy.

[0056] The oil pump can be intermittently started according to the first oil pump control strategy to achieve intermittent lubrication of the gearbox gear. ​

[0057] The transmission oil pump control method proposed in the second embodiment of the present invention adopts a first oil pump control strategy to control the intermittent operation of the oil pump when the vehicle is in the starting but not driving state, which can ensure the lubrication of the transmission gears and reduce the energy consumption of the oil pump.

[0058] On the basis of the above embodiment, the present invention further proposes a modified embodiment of the above embodiment. It should be noted that, in order to simplify the description, only the differences from the above embodiment are described in the modified embodiment.

[0059] Exemplarily, in one embodiment, the above (S240) can be concretized as: controlling the intermittent start of the oil pump with a first duration as the time interval and a second duration as the operation maintenance duration; wherein the first duration and the second duration are determined based on bench tests.

[0060] In the first oil pump control strategy, a timer can be set up and the timing can be reset intermittently. The first duration is the interval between two oil pump operations, and the second duration is the single operation duration of the oil pump. The oil pump speed is controlled to be periodically set to control the intermittent start of the oil pump, thereby achieving intermittent lubrication when the vehicle is started but not driving.

[0061] Among them, the specific values ​​of the first time length and the second time length are not limited. Those skilled in the art can set them according to actual needs. Through bench tests, it is found that the first time length can be 2-4 minutes and the second time length can be 4-6 minutes. Intermittent lubrication is carried out in this way to ensure that the oil film is well established.

[0062] Example 3

[0063] Figure 3 This is a flow chart of a transmission oil pump control method provided in the third embodiment of the present invention. This third embodiment is optimized based on the above embodiments. In this embodiment, (S120) is further specified as follows: S320, when the vehicle is in motion, determining a second oil pump control mode; (S130) is further specified as follows: S330, selecting a second oil pump control strategy based on the second oil pump control mode; in the second oil pump control strategy, the oil pump operates continuously, and the oil pump speed is related to the transmission temperature; (S140) is further specified as follows: S340, adjusting the oil pump speed according to the second oil pump control strategy. For details not yet fully detailed in this embodiment, please refer to the above embodiments.

[0064] like Figure 3 As shown, a method for controlling a transmission oil pump provided by a third embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0065] S310: Obtain vehicle status.

[0066] The vehicle status includes the vehicle start / stop status and the transmission temperature.

[0067] S320: When the vehicle is in a driving state, determine a second oil pump control mode.

[0068] In the third embodiment of the present invention, whether the vehicle is in a driving state can be determined based on the vehicle start / stop state. When it is determined that the vehicle is in a driving state, the oil pump control mode required by this state is determined to be the second oil pump control mode.

[0069] S330: Select a second oil pump control strategy according to the second oil pump control mode.

[0070] Furthermore, the second oil pump control mode corresponds to a second oil pump control strategy. In this strategy, the oil pump runs continuously, and its speed is related to the transmission temperature. Specifically, in this strategy, the oil pump runs continuously, and its speed is related to the actual transmission temperature.

[0071] The inventors have discovered that during vehicle operation, the transmission requires different oil pump speeds within different temperature ranges. In this embodiment, a grading table of corresponding oil pump speeds for different transmission temperature ranges under driving conditions can be determined before the vehicle leaves the factory based on bench testing and other factors. This grading table can include optimal oil pump speeds for different transmission temperature ranges.

[0072] For example, generally speaking, when the transmission temperature is higher, the required oil pump speed is higher to ensure lubrication and cooling. Of course, the corresponding relationship between oil pump speed and transmission temperature may also be related to various factors, and this is only an example.

[0073] During actual driving of the vehicle, after entering the second oil pump control mode, the oil pump speed is automatically adjusted based on the corresponding classification table of different transmission temperature ranges and oil pump speeds, with the actual transmission temperature as input and the oil pump speed as output.

[0074] S340: Adjust the speed of the oil pump according to the second oil pump control strategy.

[0075] The transmission oil pump control method provided in the third embodiment of the present invention adopts a second oil pump control strategy to control the continuous operation of the oil pump when the vehicle is in motion, and can adjust the oil pump speed according to the transmission temperature output, thereby ensuring the lubrication and cooling effect of the transmission when the vehicle is in motion.

[0076] On the basis of the above embodiment, the present invention further proposes a modified embodiment of the above embodiment. It should be noted that, in order to simplify the description, only the differences from the above embodiment are described in the modified embodiment.

[0077] For example, in some embodiments, the vehicle state also includes the transmission output shaft speed and torque. In the second oil pump control strategy, the oil pump speed is also related to the transmission output shaft speed and torque; the above (S330) can be concretized as follows: in the second oil pump control mode, the lubricating oil flow of the oil pump is determined in combination with the transmission output shaft speed and torque; the second oil pump control strategy is determined according to the transmission temperature and the lubricating oil flow of the oil pump.

[0078] As those skilled in the art will appreciate, during vehicle operation, the required lubricating oil flow rate within the transmission (i.e., the lubricating oil flow rate of the oil pump) is related to the transmission output shaft gear speed and the gear load torque. The oil pump speed, or the speed of the oil pump motor, is related to the lubricating oil flow rate delivered by the pump. Generally, a higher oil pump speed results in a higher lubricating oil flow rate.

[0079] In this embodiment, bench testing can be performed to assess the oil pump's lubrication capacity and lubrication performance under varying transmission loads, yielding a table of operating conditions that correlates transmission output shaft speed and torque with lubricant flow rate. Subsequently, lubricant flow rate and transmission temperature classifications are performed to yield a table of oil pump speeds corresponding to various transmission temperature ranges. Table 1 illustrates a classification table provided by an embodiment of the present invention. With reference to Table 1, this classification table may include optimal oil pump speeds for various transmission temperature ranges and lubricant flow rates.

[0080] Table 1

[0081]

[0082] Table 1 exemplarily shows three transformer temperature ranges and three sets of required lubricating oil flow rates corresponding to the oil pump speeds, but is not limited thereto.

[0083] During actual driving of the vehicle, after entering the second oil pump control mode, according to the classification table, the actual transmission temperature, transmission output shaft speed and torque are used as inputs, and the oil pump speed is used as output to achieve automatic adjustment of the oil pump speed.

[0084] In this embodiment, the oil pump speed is regulated in combination with various working conditions of the gearbox to ensure that the oil pump operating speed matches the current actual working conditions.

[0085] For example, in other embodiments, after the above (S330), it also includes: when the transmission temperature is lower than the low temperature threshold, obtaining the actual speed of the oil pump, and determining the target speed of the oil pump corresponding to the current transmission temperature in the second oil pump control strategy; when the difference between the target speed and the actual speed is within a preset difference range, continuing to execute the second oil pump control strategy, and when the difference between the target speed and the actual speed exceeds the preset difference range, stopping executing the second oil pump control strategy.

[0086] The inventors have discovered that in low-temperature environments, the higher viscosity of lubricating oil can cause the actual oil pump speed to fall short of the target speed. The actual speed is the actual speed of the oil pump motor, while the target speed is the target speed required by the oil pump, as determined by the second oil pump control strategy (e.g., Table 1). A significant difference between the target speed and the actual speed can lead to insufficient lubrication capacity of the oil pump, impacting normal vehicle operation.

[0087] Based on this, this embodiment proposes that after obtaining the transmission temperature, the transmission temperature can be compared with a preset low-temperature threshold. If it is determined that the transmission temperature is lower than the low-temperature threshold, it indicates that there may be a problem of insufficient lubrication capacity due to increased viscosity of the lubricating oil. At this time, the oil pump speed can be checked to determine whether the difference between the target speed and the actual speed of the oil pump exceeds the preset difference range. If the difference between the target speed and the actual speed does not exceed the preset difference range, it means that the current oil pump speed meets the required target speed, and the oil pump can be controlled normally according to the second oil pump control strategy. If the difference between the target speed and the actual speed exceeds the preset difference range, it means that the current oil pump speed no longer meets the required target speed, and it can no longer be controlled according to the second oil pump control strategy, and the torque limit flag is output to limit the torque and speed of the drive axle where the oil pump is located to protect the normal operation of the vehicle.

[0088] The specific values ​​of the above-mentioned low temperature threshold and the preset difference range are not limited, and those skilled in the art can set them according to actual conditions.

[0089] Example 4

[0090] Figure 4 This is a flow chart of a transmission oil pump control method provided in Embodiment 4 of the present invention. This embodiment is an optimization of the above embodiments. In this embodiment, the transmission oil pump control method further includes the following steps: S450, obtaining the oil pump operating status; S460, determining whether the oil pump is faulty based on the oil pump operating status; S470, selecting a corresponding oil pump fault post-processing strategy based on the fault type, including communication faults and operational faults; S480, executing the oil pump fault post-processing strategy. For details not fully detailed in this embodiment, please refer to the above embodiments.

[0091] like Figure 4 As shown, a method for controlling a transmission oil pump provided by a fourth embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0092] S410: Obtain vehicle status.

[0093] Vehicle status includes vehicle start / stop status and transmission temperature;

[0094] S420: Determine the oil pump control mode according to the vehicle state.

[0095] S430: Select a corresponding oil pump control strategy according to the oil pump control mode.

[0096] S440: Control the oil pump according to the oil pump control strategy.

[0097] The specific implementation of the above S410-S440 can refer to any of the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0098] S450: Obtain the working status of the oil pump.

[0099] The fuel pump operating status includes, but is not limited to, the communication status between the fuel pump and the vehicle, as well as the actual operating status of the fuel pump. The actual operating status includes, but is not limited to, actual operating parameter data such as fuel pump voltage, fuel pump current, and fuel pump load.

[0100] S460: Determine whether the oil pump is faulty based on the working status of the oil pump.

[0101] In this embodiment, whether the oil pump is faulty can be determined based on the oil pump's operating status. For example, if the oil pump cannot communicate with the vehicle, it is determined that the oil pump has a communication fault; if the actual operating parameter data of the oil pump is abnormal, it is determined that the oil pump has an operating fault.

[0102] S470: When an oil pump failure occurs, select a corresponding oil pump failure post-processing strategy according to the failure type.

[0103] Fault types include, but are not limited to, communication faults and operational faults. Communication faults may include oil pump communication faults and oil pump address bit floating faults. Operational faults include, but are not limited to, overvoltage faults, undervoltage faults, overcurrent faults, overload faults, and stuck faults.

[0104] S480: Execute the oil pump failure post-processing strategy.

[0105] In the fault state, the corresponding oil pump fault post-processing strategy can be selected and executed according to different fault types to ensure the lubrication condition of the vehicle gearbox and the driving safety of the vehicle as much as possible.

[0106] For example, for a dual-fuel-pump vehicle, if a single fuel-pump node is lost, a single-fuel-pump communication failure is determined. The post-failure handling strategy is: the other fuel pump operates independently, and the drive axle with the failed fuel pump implements level 1 speed and torque limiting. If a dual-fuel-pump node is lost, a dual-fuel-pump communication failure is determined. The post-failure handling strategy is: the drive axle with the failed fuel pump implements level 2 speed and torque limiting, which is then reduced to zero after a certain period of time. If the fuel pump address bit is left unconnected, a floating address bit fault is determined. The post-failure handling strategy is: the drive axle with the failed fuel pump implements level 1 speed and torque limiting.

[0107] For example, if an abnormality in the oil pump power supply circuit voltage / current is detected, an overvoltage / undervoltage / overcurrent fault is determined based on the type of abnormality. The post-fault handling strategy for the oil pump is as follows: If the fault can be self-corrected within a preset time period, no action is required. If the fault cannot be self-corrected within the preset time period, the faulty oil pump is stopped, and first or second level speed and torque limiting is implemented based on the number of oil pump stalls. If the oil pump does not respond to the target speed for more than a certain period of time, a stuck fault is determined. The post-fault handling strategy for the oil pump is as follows: Based on the duration of the stuck fault, the following control strategy is implemented. If the oil pump temporarily sticks multiple times within a certain period of time, no action is required. If the oil pump sticks continuously, first or second level speed and torque limiting is implemented based on the number of oil pump sticking episodes. If the difference between the target speed and the actual speed of the oil pump exceeds the calibrated speed difference, the oil pump is determined to be overloaded. The post-fault handling strategy for the oil pump is to control the oil pump to operate at reduced power.

[0108] Of course, in actual application, the oil pump failure type and the corresponding oil pump failure post-processing strategy are not limited to this, and those skilled in the art can design them according to actual needs.
