These drawings and text descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure in any way, but to illustrate the concepts of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more clear, the embodiments of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] The present disclosure provides a brake control device, referring to Figure 1 As shown, the brake control device includes a first socket 1 , a second socket 2 , a third socket 3 and at least two conductive members 4 .

[0040] The two ends of the first socket 1 are electrically connected to the engine control module 10 and the oil pump 20, respectively, and the first socket 1 is used to plug the conductive member 4. The two ends of the second socket 2 are electrically connected to the engine control module 10 and the positive pole of the handbrake motor 30, respectively, and the second socket 2 is used to plug the conductive member 4. The two ends of the third socket 3 are electrically connected to the negative pole of the handbrake motor 30 and the vehicle body grounding point 40, respectively, and the third socket 3 is used to plug the conductive member 4.

[0041] When the conductive member 4 is plugged in, the two ends of the corresponding socket are connected, and when the conductive member 4 is not plugged in, the two ends of the corresponding socket are disconnected.

[0042] In this way, the user can implement hard-line control of the oil pump 20 and the handbrake motor 30 through the conductive member 4, and then, in the event of a failure in the electronic control of the vehicle, the fuel supply to the vehicle can be interrupted by cutting off the operation of the oil pump 20, or the handbrake motor 30 can be driven to cause the brake caliper to clamp the brake disc, thereby achieving deceleration or stopping of the vehicle.

[0043] In some embodiments, the brake control device is located in the center console area between the driver's seat and the corresponding door. In this way, when the driver finds that the vehicle has a related abnormal situation (for example: the accelerator pedal does not rebound, the brake pedal has no response in the full stroke, etc.), the corresponding measures can be quickly implemented by installing or removing the conductive part 4 in the brake control device (for example: cutting off the vehicle's fuel supply, cutting off the vehicle's fuel supply and starting the handbrake motor 30, etc.).

[0044] In some other embodiments, the brake control device is located in the center console area between the driver's seat and the co-pilot seat. When the driver finds that the vehicle has relevant abnormal conditions (for example, the accelerator pedal does not rebound, the brake pedal has no response in the full stroke, etc.), the driver can quickly install or remove the conductive member 4 in the brake control device to implement corresponding measures (for example, cutting off the vehicle's fuel supply, cutting off the vehicle's fuel supply and starting the handbrake motor 30, etc.), or the co-pilot passenger can assist the driver to quickly install or remove the conductive member 4 in the brake control device to implement corresponding measures.

[0045] In some embodiments, the engine control module 10 includes an engine controller 11, a fuel pump relay 12 and a fuse 13. The engine controller 11 can output a command signal, which is used to control the working state of the fuel pump 20; the fuel pump relay 12 can be used as a power switch of the fuel pump 20. For example, when the vehicle is started, the fuel pump relay 12 receives a signal from the engine controller 11 or the ignition switch, closes the circuit, and starts the fuel pump 20 to deliver fuel from the fuel tank to the engine. When an abnormal current (such as an excessive current) appears in the circuit where the fuel pump 20 is located, the fuse 13 will melt and cut off the circuit to prevent the overcurrent from damaging the fuel pump 20.

[0046] The rated current of the fuse 13 can be set according to parameters such as different vehicle models and starting current requirements of different oil pumps 20 .

[0047] In some embodiments, the handbrake motor 30 includes a left handbrake motor 30a and a right hand brake motor 30b, which respectively control the left rear wheel brake caliper and the right rear wheel brake caliper of the vehicle, and achieve braking of the corresponding wheels by driving the corresponding brake calipers to clamp the brake discs.

[0048] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 As shown, the brake control device further includes a receiving groove 5 , the shape of which is adapted to the conductive member 4 and is used to receive the conductive member 4 .

[0049] The provision of the accommodating groove 5 can provide the conductive part 4 with a fixed storage position. On the one hand, it can prevent the conductive part 4 from being placed arbitrarily or sliding or falling while the vehicle is running. On the other hand, when the vehicle has a related out-of-control abnormal situation, the cockpit crew can promptly obtain the conductive part 4 and place the conductive part 4 in the corresponding position, so that the vehicle can slow down or stop moving as soon as possible.

[0050] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the extension directions of the first socket 1 , the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 are parallel to each other, and the extension direction of the accommodating groove 5 intersects with the extension directions of the first socket 1 , the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 .

[0051] The extension direction of the receiving slot 5 is different from that of the other sockets (i.e., the first socket 1, the second socket 2, and the third socket 3). This is beneficial for the cockpit personnel to accurately distinguish the corresponding positions of the other sockets and the receiving slot 5 and respond quickly when the vehicle has a related out-of-control abnormal situation, thereby avoiding prolonging the processing time for dealing with the abnormal situation due to distinguishing the sockets and the receiving slot 5.

[0052] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3As shown, the first socket 1, the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 are of equal size. On the one hand, the three sockets of the same size are conducive to simplifying the processing technology of the brake control device and reducing the manufacturing cost; on the other hand, the three sockets of the same size are conducive to using conductive parts 4 of the same size, which is conducive to improving the compatibility of the conductive parts 4. The brake control device does not need to be equipped with conductive parts 4 of different size parameters to achieve control of different socket states.

[0053] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 As shown, the distance L1 between the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 is smaller than the distance L2 between the first socket 1 and the second socket 2. In this way, when the vehicle has a related out-of-control abnormal situation, the cockpit personnel can accurately distinguish the first socket 1 located on the working circuit of the oil pump 20 and the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 located on the working circuit of the handbrake motor 30, and make a quick response, avoiding prolonging the processing time for dealing with the abnormal situation due to distinguishing the sockets on different circuits.

[0054] In some other embodiments, the sizes of the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 are equal, and the size parameters of the first socket 1 are different from the size parameters of the second socket 2 and the third socket 3. In this way, even if the first socket 1, the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 are equally spaced, the cockpit personnel can quickly distinguish the first socket 1 from the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 from the dimensions of the volume and shape of the three sockets, and make a quick response, avoiding prolonging the processing time for dealing with abnormal situations due to distinguishing sockets on different circuits.

[0055] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the size of each conductive member 4 is equal. In this way, the conductive members 4 can be replaced with each other, which saves the time of the cockpit crew to distinguish the conductive members 4 of different sizes when the vehicle has a related out-of-control abnormal situation, and improves the operating speed of the driver.

[0056] The present disclosure does not specifically limit the number of the conductive member 4, and can be matched and set according to the number of the first socket 1, the second socket 2 and the third socket 3, the manufacturing cost, the space of the receiving slot 5 and other parameters. For example, the number of the conductive member 4 can be two, and when the vehicle is driving normally, one conductive member 4 is located in the first socket 1, so that the two ends of the first socket 1 are connected, and the oil pump 20 is in a normal working state, and the other conductive member 4 is located in the receiving slot 5 for use in abnormal vehicle scenes; when the vehicle has a related out-of-control abnormal situation, the user can place a conductive member 4 located in the first socket 1 and a conductive member 4 located in the receiving slot 5 in the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 respectively, so that the engine control module 10 and the handbrake motor 30 are connected, and the handbrake motor 30 works so that the brake caliper clamps the brake disc to achieve vehicle deceleration or stop.

[0057] As another example, the number of conductive parts 4 can be multiple. When the vehicle is running normally, one conductive part 4 is located in the first socket 1, so that the two ends of the first socket 1 are conductive, and the oil pump 20 is in a normal working state. The remaining conductive parts 4 are located in the accommodating groove 5 for use in abnormal vehicle scenarios; when the vehicle has a related out-of-control abnormal situation, the user can remove the conductive part 4 located in the first socket 1, and obtain the two conductive parts 4 located in the accommodating groove 5 and place them in the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 respectively, so that the engine control module 10 and the handbrake motor 30 are conductive, and the handbrake motor 30 works to make the brake caliper clamp the brake disc to achieve deceleration or stop of the vehicle.

[0058] Multiple conductive parts 4 can prevent the cockpit crew from accidentally sliding the conductive parts 4 to the cockpit floor due to psychological factors such as nervousness and fear when the vehicle is out of control, thereby preventing the vehicle from being unable to be controlled by the brake control device due to the lack of conductive parts 4.

[0059] In some embodiments, the conductive member 4 is made of a low melting point alloy material, such as lead-tin alloy, tin-silver-copper alloy, and tin-copper alloy. The conductive member 4 made of a low melting point alloy material has good conductivity, and under normal working conditions, the conductive member 4 can stably transmit current. When the current is overloaded, the conductive member 4 made of a low melting point alloy material quickly melts to prevent the circuits and equipment inside the vehicle from melting or even burning due to overheating.

[0060] In some embodiments, the edges of the first socket 1, the second socket 2, the third socket 3 and the receiving slot 5 are all de-sharpened. Since the cockpit personnel put their hands into the first socket 1, the second socket 2, the third socket 3 and the receiving slot 5 to place or remove the conductive member 4 when operating the brake control device, the de-sharpening of the edges of the first socket 1, the second socket 2, the third socket 3 and the receiving slot 5 can effectively reduce the risk of the brake control device causing scratches, punctures and other adverse phenomena to the hands of the cockpit personnel, which is conducive to improving the user experience of the brake control device.

[0061] Based on the same concept, the embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a vehicle braking method, the braking method adopts the braking control device as described in any one of the above embodiments, referring to Figure 4 As shown, the braking method includes:

[0062] Step 100 , when the engine control module 10 continues to work and cannot be stopped, the conductive member 4 in the first socket 1 is removed.

[0063] The fact that the engine control module 10 continues to work and cannot be stopped means that the oil pump 20 continues to work to supply the fuel in the vehicle's fuel tank to the engine. Since the first socket 1 is located between the engine control module 10 and the oil pump 20, when the conductive member 4 in the first socket 1 is removed, the closed loop formed by the engine control module 10 and the oil pump 20 is disconnected, the oil pump 20 stops working, and the fuel is no longer delivered from the fuel tank to the engine.

[0064] In this way, the engine gradually stops working and the vehicle loses power supply. Under the influence of external forces such as ground friction and air resistance, the vehicle can gradually reduce its speed until it stops.

[0065] Step 200, controlling the handbrake motor 30 to drive the brake caliper to clamp via the handbrake control module 31.

[0066] After the oil pump 20 stops working, if the vehicle relies solely on ground friction and air resistance, it will take a long time and a long distance to slow down and stop. Usually, when the vehicle is driving normally, there are other vehicles or obstacles in front and there is not much free distance. At this time, the handbrake control module 31 controls the handbrake motor 30 to drive the brake caliper to clamp. There is a large friction between the brake caliper and the brake disc, which can quickly reduce the vehicle speed, which is beneficial to shorten the time and space required for the vehicle to decelerate and stop.

[0067] In some embodiments, before the handbrake control module 31 controls the handbrake motor 30 to drive the brake caliper to clamp, the braking method further includes:

[0068] Step 201, reducing the vehicle speed by braking the pedal.

[0069] The driver can apply different braking forces to the vehicle by controlling the depth of the brake pedal, and then rely on the brake pedal to reduce the speed of the vehicle until it stops.

[0070] In some embodiments, after the handbrake control module 31 controls the handbrake motor 30 to drive the brake caliper to clamp, the braking method further includes:

[0071] Step 300, placing two conductive members 4 in the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 respectively, and then controlling the handbrake motor 30 to drive the brake caliper to clamp.

[0072] If the handbrake control module 31 fails and cannot control the state of the handbrake motor 30, the engine control module 10 drives the handbrake motor 30 to rotate forward by placing the two conductive parts 4 in the second socket 2 and the third socket 3, so that the corresponding brake caliper clamps the brake disc to achieve braking of the corresponding wheel, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the handbrake system.

[0073] In some embodiments, after placing the two conductive members 4 in the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 respectively, and then controlling the hand brake motor 30 to drive the brake caliper to clamp, the braking method further includes:

[0074] Step 400, taking out the conductive member 4 placed in the second socket 2 and the third socket 3, and then controlling the handbrake motor 30 to stop rotating.

[0075] After the vehicle slows down to a reasonable range or comes to a complete stop, the cockpit crew promptly removes the conductive member 4 located in the second socket 2 and the third socket 3. In this way, the closed circuit of the handbrake motor 30 is disconnected, the handbrake motor 30 stops rotating, and the brake caliper is no longer driven to clamp. This can avoid a significant reduction in the service life of the brake caliper and the brake disc due to continuous clamping of the brake caliper and the brake disc, and can also avoid abnormal heating caused by continuous operation of the handbrake motor 30.

[0076] Based on the same concept, an embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a vehicle, which may include a brake control device as described in any one of the above embodiments.

[0077] The present disclosure does not specifically limit the type of vehicle, for example, a sedan, a bus, a truck, a sport utility vehicle (SUV), etc. The vehicle can be a fuel vehicle or a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV).

[0078] The specific working conditions of vehicles equipped with brake control devices are as follows:

[0079] 1. Vehicle normal working condition (refer to Figure 1 (shown)

[0080] A conductive member 4 is placed in the first socket 1, that is, the two ends of the first socket 1 are connected, and the two ends of the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 are disconnected. In this way, the engine control module 10 drives the oil pump 20 to work, and the fuel is transported from the fuel tank to the engine. The handbrake control module 31 is electrically connected to the handbrake motor 30 to control the forward and reverse rotation of the handbrake motor 30.

[0081] 2. The engine control module 10 continuously outputs a signal (refer to Figure 2 (shown)

[0082] The engine control module 10 continues to output signals and cannot stop due to factors such as failure of electronic components in the engine control module 10. At this time, the oil pump 20 continues to work, and the fuel is continuously delivered from the fuel tank to the engine.

[0083] The crew in the cockpit takes out the conductive member 4 in the first socket 1, so that the two ends of the first socket 1 are disconnected, the closed circuit of the oil pump 20 is disconnected, the oil pump 20 stops working, and the fuel is no longer delivered from the fuel tank to the engine. In this way, the engine gradually stops working, the vehicle loses power supply, and the vehicle can gradually reduce its speed until it stops under the influence of external forces such as ground friction and air resistance.

[0084] At this time, the driver can also drive the corresponding wheels through the brake pedal or the handbrake control module 31 to generate braking force, so that the vehicle speed can be quickly reduced, shortening the time and space required for the vehicle to decelerate until it stops.

[0085] 3. Brake pedal and handbrake control module 31 failure (refer to Figure 3 (shown)

[0086] If the brake pedal and the handbrake control module 31 fail, the driver cannot apply braking force to quickly reduce the vehicle speed. The vehicle can only rely on external forces such as ground friction and air resistance. It takes a long time and a long distance to complete the deceleration and stopping. Usually, when the vehicle is driving normally, there are other vehicles or obstacles in front, and there is not much spare distance.

[0087] At this time, the driver can place the two conductive parts 4 in the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 respectively, so that both ends of the second socket 2 and the third socket 3 are conductive, and the positive pole of the handbrake motor 30 is connected to the engine control module 10, and the negative pole of the handbrake motor 30 is connected to the vehicle body grounding point 40. The handbrake motor 30 rotates forward under the drive of the engine control module 10, and then drives the brake caliper to clamp the brake disc, generating a larger braking force on the corresponding wheel, and the vehicle speed is rapidly reduced until the vehicle stops.

[0088] Reference Figure 2 As shown, after the vehicle slows down to a reasonable range or stops completely, the cockpit personnel promptly removes the conductive member 4 located in the second socket 2 and the third socket 3. In this way, the closed circuit of the handbrake motor 30 is disconnected, the handbrake motor 30 stops rotating, and the brake caliper is no longer driven to clamp. This can avoid a significant reduction in the service life of the brake caliper and the brake disc caused by continuous clamping of the brake caliper and the brake disc, and can also avoid abnormal heating caused by continuous operation of the handbrake motor 30.
