For vehicles using the P1 architecture, its core feature is that the motor is integrated between the engine and the clutch, and is located before the gearbox, forming a hybrid system layout.

[0058] To make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.

Based on the embodiments of the present application, each other embodiment obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belongs to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0059] In the development process of modern automobile technology, the architecture design of vehicle power systems has been continuously innovated to meet higher performance requirements and diversified driving experience. For vehicles using the P1 architecture, its core feature is that the motor is integrated between the engine clutch and located before the gearbox, forming a hybrid system layout. Vehicles under this architecture can not only take advantage of traditional internal combustion engines, but also use motors to achieve auxiliary drive, energy recovery and other functions.

[0060] The power transmission path of the P1 architecture vehicle is quite special: the engine drives the wheels directly through a mechanical connection; the engine and the motor are directly connected, and the torque output is controlled by controlling the working mode, without controlling the clutch. The clutch is behind the motor and in front of the gearbox, and the working mode can be flexibly switched under different working conditions. For example, at the start or when driving at low speeds, the motor can be used alone to provide power, thereby reducing fuel consumption and emissions; while in situations where a larger torque output is required, such as acceleration and overtaking, the engine and the motor work together to provide stronger power support.

[0061] However, in such a power system, reasonable torque distribution is particularly important. In actual operation, accurately adjusting the torque contribution ratio between the engine and the motor can help optimize the vehicle's power performance, improve fuel economy and extend battery life.

[0062] Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides a torque distribution method for a P1 architecture vehicle, through which the vehicle can more effectively manage the operating mode and torque output of its power system, thereby improving the overall vehicle performance, efficiency and driving experience.

[0063] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a torque distribution method for a P1 architecture vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown in , the torque distribution method provided by the embodiment of the present application includes:

[0064] S101. Determine the current operating mode of the target vehicle.

[0065] S102: Determine the current working mode of the controlled motor according to the current operating mode.

[0066] S103 . Determine a target torque distribution strategy according to the current operation mode, and determine a first target torque of the controlled motor and a second target torque of the controlled engine according to the target torque distribution strategy.

[0067] S104, controlling the controlled motor to operate in the current operating mode according to the first target torque, and controlling the controlled engine to operate according to the second target torque.

[0068] The following is a description of the exemplary steps of the present application embodiment:

[0069] With respect to step S101 , this step may include: determining the current operating mode of the target vehicle using an appropriate algorithm or model according to relevant operating parameters of the target vehicle.

[0070] Here, the relevant operating parameters may include a driver demand torque value, a battery SOC value, an external switch state, etc. The target vehicle is a P1 architecture vehicle.

[0071] For examples, see Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a partial internal structure of a target vehicle provided in this application. Figure 2 As shown, when the target vehicle is a P1 architecture, the motor on the vehicle is installed between the engine and the clutch and is located before the gearbox, and the motor of the vehicle is directly connected to the engine. This layout allows the motor to both assist in driving the vehicle and act as a generator to charge the battery.

[0072] In step S101, illustratively, the current operating mode is one of the following modes: initialization mode, starting assist mode, driving charging mode, engine direct drive mode, parking charging mode, driving assist mode and braking energy recovery mode.

[0073] With respect to step S102 , the working modes include a mode in which the controlled motor works as a driver, a mode in which the controlled motor works as a generator, and a free running mode.

[0074] Here, a mapping relationship between the operation mode and the motor working mode can be established in advance, and then according to the established mapping relationship, after determining the current operation mode of the target vehicle, the current working mode of the controlled motor can be determined. Among them, the free operation mode refers to a mode in which the controlled motor is not controlled.

[0075] In an implementation manner provided in the present application, determining the current operating mode of the controlled motor according to the current operating mode includes:

[0076] When the current operation mode is the starting assist mode, the current operation mode of the controlled motor is a mode in which the controlled motor works as a driver;

[0077] When the current operation mode is the driving charging mode, the current operation mode of the controlled motor is a mode in which the controlled motor works as a generator;

[0078] When the current operation mode is the engine direct drive mode, the current operation mode of the controlled motor is the free operation mode;

[0079] When the current operation mode is the parking charging mode, the current operation mode of the controlled motor is a mode in which the controlled motor works as a generator;

[0080] When the current operation mode is the driving power-assist mode, the current operation mode of the controlled motor is a mode in which the controlled motor works as a driver;

[0081] When the current operating mode is the braking energy recovery mode, the current operating mode of the controlled motor is a mode in which the controlled motor operates as a generator.

[0082] Here, a specific mapping relationship between the operating mode and the working mode is provided, so that how the motor works can be determined quickly and accurately.

[0083] Regarding step S103, in this step, different torque distribution strategies may be set for different operation modes of the target vehicle. The torque distribution strategy refers to a strategy for distributing torque to the controlled motor and the controlled engine.

[0084] In an implementation manner provided in the present application, when the current operating mode is the start assist mode, determining the first target torque of the controlled motor and the second target torque of the controlled engine according to the target torque control strategy torque distribution strategy includes:

[0085] S10311. Obtain the starting assist torque of the target vehicle, the driver's required torque, and the system maximum output torque of the power system of the target vehicle.

[0086] S10312: when the sum of the starting assist torque and the driver demand torque is not less than the system maximum output torque, taking the difference between the system maximum output torque and the driver demand torque as the first target torque of the controlled motor, and taking the driver demand torque as the second target torque of the controlled engine;

[0087] S10313. When the sum of the starting assist torque and the driver demand torque is less than the maximum output torque of the system, the starting assist torque is used as the first target torque of the controlled motor, and the driver demand torque is used as the second target torque of the controlled engine.

[0088] With respect to step S10311, the starting assist torque may be determined by looking up a table according to the actual current rotation speed of the controlled motor.

[0089] Here, the starting assist torque is a corrected torque, which can be corrected by a first correction coefficient. The first correction coefficient can be determined according to the driver's accelerator pedal opening and the motor speed, and different coefficients are output according to different driver's accelerator pedal opening and motor speed.

[0090] In this way, the starting assist torque can be different under different accelerator pedal openings and motor speeds.

[0091] The driver demand torque may be determined according to the driver's current control state of the target vehicle.

[0092] The implementations in step S10312 and step S10313 are torque distribution methods in two different situations in the start assist mode. The maximum output torque of the system is the maximum output torque of the power system on the target vehicle, which can be predetermined.

[0093] In another embodiment provided by the present application, when the current operating mode is the driving charging mode, determining the first target torque of the controlled motor and the second target torque of the controlled engine according to the target torque control strategy torque distribution strategy includes:

[0094] S10321, obtaining the optimal power generation torque of the controlled motor and the torque required by the driver;

[0095] S10322. When the sum of the optimal power generation torque and the driver demand torque is within the optimal torque range of the controlled engine, the optimal power generation torque is used as the first target torque of the controlled motor, and the sum of the optimal power generation torque and the driver demand torque is used as the second target torque of the controlled engine.

[0096] S10323. When the sum of the optimal power generation torque and the driver demand torque is not within the optimal torque range of the controlled engine, the first target torque is set to zero, and the driver demand torque is used as the second target torque of the controlled engine.

[0097] With respect to step S10321, the optimal power generation torque of the controlled motor may be predetermined.

[0098] The implementation methods in step S10322 and step S10323 are torque distribution methods in two different situations in the driving charging mode.

[0099] The optimal torque range of the controlled engine is determined according to the optimal working performance range of the controlled engine.

[0100] In this mode, when the driver's required torque is low during driving and the engine is not operating in the optimal economic range, the engine operating range is adjusted to the optimal operating range, and the controlled motor works as a generator to charge the battery. In step S10323, the first target torque is set to zero, that is, the controlled motor is not controlled.

[0101] In another embodiment provided in the present application, when the current operating mode is the engine direct drive mode, determining the first target torque of the controlled motor and the second target torque of the controlled engine according to the target torque distribution strategy includes: determining that the first target torque of the controlled motor is zero; and using the driver's required torque as the second target torque of the controlled engine.

[0102] Here, determining the first target torque of the controlled motor to be zero means not controlling the controlled motor. The driver demand torque can be determined by looking up a table according to the accelerator pedal opening and the engine speed.

[0103] In another embodiment provided in the present application, when the current operating mode is the parking charging mode, determining the first target torque of the controlled motor and the second target torque of the controlled engine according to the target torque distribution strategy includes: determining the preset torque as the first target torque of the controlled motor; determining the torque corresponding to the preset speed as the second target torque of the controlled engine.

[0104] Here, for the parking charging mode, the working torque of the controlled motor in this mode and the working speed of the controlled engine in this mode may be preset.

[0105] For example, in the parking charging mode, the engine speed is controlled and the generator torque is controlled. The engine is controlled to run at a fixed speed point in the economic range, such as an engine speed of 1200rpm and a torque of 500NM. In this mode, in order to prevent the generator torque from being too large when entering the parking charging mode, causing the engine to stall, a control method of gradually increasing the torque is adopted, increasing by 100NM every 1 second, and reaching the maximum torque value of 500NM after running for 5s, and then requesting the generator to run at a size of 500NM.

[0106] In another implementation manner provided by the present application, when the current operating mode is the driving assistance mode, determining the first target torque of the controlled motor and the second target torque of the controlled engine according to the target torque distribution strategy includes:

[0107] S10331. Obtain the driving assist torque of the target vehicle and the driver's required torque.

[0108] S10332. When the driver demand torque is less than the upper limit of the optimal torque range of the controlled engine, the first target torque of the controlled motor is zero, and the driver demand torque is used as the second target torque of the controlled engine.

[0109] S10333. When the driver's required torque is not less than the upper limit of the optimal torque range of the controlled engine, the difference between the driving assist torque or the driver's required torque and the lower limit of the optimal torque range is used as the first target torque of the controlled motor, and the difference between the lower limit of the optimal torque range or the driver's required torque and the driving assist torque is used as the second target torque of the controlled engine.

[0110] For step S10331, the driving assist torque may be obtained by multiplying the driving external characteristic value of the motor speed by a percentage obtained by looking up a table using the motor speed and the throttle opening.

[0111] For step S10333, when the driver's required torque is not less than the upper limit of the optimal torque range of the controlled engine, the output torque of the controlled motor is assisted, which can be divided into two cases: the driver's required torque is subtracted from the lower limit of the optimal torque range of the engine, and the difference is compared with the driving assist torque at the current speed. If it is less than the driving assist torque, the motor output torque value (first target torque) is requested to be the difference between the driver's required torque and the lower limit of the optimal torque range of the engine, and the engine output torque value (second target torque) is requested to be the lower limit of the optimal torque range of the engine. If it is greater than or equal to the driving assist torque value, no restriction is made, the motor output torque (first target torque) is requested to be the driving assist torque, and the engine output torque (second target torque) is requested to be the difference between the driver's required torque and the driving assist torque.

[0112] In another embodiment provided in the present application, when the current operating mode is a braking energy recovery mode, determining the first target torque of the controlled motor and the second target torque of the controlled engine according to the target torque distribution strategy includes: determining the current braking energy recovery negative torque as the first target torque of the controlled motor; and determining that the second target torque of the controlled engine is zero.

[0113] Here, the current braking energy recovery negative torque can be determined in the following manner: determine the maximum negative torque of braking energy recovery according to the external power generation characteristics of the controlled motor, and then correct the maximum negative torque of braking energy recovery by the coefficient of the current brake pedal opening and the coefficient of the current vehicle speed to obtain the current braking energy recovery negative torque.

[0114] In this way, appropriate braking force can be provided at different vehicle speeds and different brake pedal openings to meet braking requirements.

[0115] The second target torque of the controlled engine is determined to be zero, that is, the engine is not controlled.

[0116] Before executing step S104, in an implementation manner provided in the present application, the torque distribution method further includes:

[0117] S201. Obtain current correction coefficients and current torque limits of the controlled motor and the controlled engine respectively.

[0118] S202. For any target torque of the first target torque and the second target torque, a correction process is performed using a current correction coefficient corresponding to the target torque, and then a limit process is performed on the correction process result using a current torque limit value corresponding to the target torque to obtain a processed first target torque and a processed second target torque.

[0119] With respect to step S201, the step may include: obtaining a first current correction coefficient and a first current torque limit value of the controlled motor; and obtaining a second current correction coefficient and a second current torque limit value of the controlled engine.

[0120] The first current correction coefficient and the second current correction coefficient can be determined by looking up the table according to the parameters of the relevant components in the vehicle.

[0121] For example, the first current correction coefficient may be determined by looking up a table according to the temperature of the motor and the temperature of the controller.

[0122] The first current torque limit value and the second current torque limit value may also be determined by looking up a table.

[0123] For example, the first current torque limit value can be determined based on at least one of the battery voltage, the maximum charge and discharge current, the maximum charge and discharge power value in 60 seconds, and the actual speed of the motor, and the first current torque limit value is the maximum charge and discharge torque value of the motor allowed by the battery.

[0124] With respect to step S202 , the first target torque or the second target torque is first corrected using the current correction coefficient, and then restricted using the current torque limit value.

[0125] When performing the restriction process, the process principle is to ensure that the first target torque or the second target torque completed by the process does not exceed the corresponding torque limit.

[0126] In addition, to prevent a sudden change in the motor torque request, the motor torque request is ramped in combination with the current actual motor torque. The engine output torque request is also ramped in combination with the current actual engine torque.

[0127] In this way, the present application dynamically adjusts the working mode of the motor based on the current operating mode of the target vehicle, which can ensure the optimal power output combination under different driving conditions, and the present solution can flexibly switch the torque distribution scheme of the motor and the engine under different working conditions. Through precise torque distribution strategies, it can ensure good power performance while taking into account fuel economy, battery life, user experience and other aspects, which has significant technological advancement significance and technical effects.

[0128] Based on the same inventive concept, a torque distribution device corresponding to the torque distribution method is also provided in the embodiment of the present application. Since the principle of solving the problem by the device in the embodiment of the present application is similar to the above-mentioned torque distribution method in the embodiment of the present application, the implementation of the device can refer to the implementation of the method, and the repeated parts will not be repeated.
