[0031] Example 1

[0032] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a shift control method for a dual-electric-drive axle vehicle according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations requiring lossless shift control for dual-electric-drive axle vehicles. The method can be executed by a shift control device for the dual-electric-drive axle vehicle, which can be implemented in hardware and / or software. Typically, this shift control device can be configured within the vehicle. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0033] S110. Obtain the current vehicle driving status, and based on the current vehicle driving status, obtain the target gear corresponding to the first electric drive axle.

[0034] In this embodiment, the dual electric drive axle includes a rear electric drive axle and a front electric drive axle, with the rear electric drive axle serving as the main controller and the front electric drive axle as the auxiliary controller. During gear shifting, the rear electric drive axle performs the shift first. After the rear electric drive axle completes the shift, it can transmit the target gear position of the front axle to the front axle controller via the bus, and then the front axle executes the shift.

[0035] The vehicle driving status includes both vehicle status and driving environment status. Vehicle status can include accelerator pedal opening, accelerator pedal opening rate of change, vehicle load, speed, acceleration, etc., while driving environment status can include road gradient, etc. In this embodiment, the real-time vehicle driving status can be monitored using pre-deployed sensors of different types.

[0036] For example, taking the first electric drive axle as the rear electric drive axle and the second electric drive axle as the front electric drive axle, after obtaining the current vehicle driving status, the speed of the power motor of the rear electric drive axle can be obtained, and the target gear can be obtained by looking up the preset mapping relationship table between vehicle driving status, motor speed and gear based on the current vehicle driving status and power motor speed.

[0037] Optionally, obtaining the target gear corresponding to the first electric drive axle based on the current vehicle driving state may include:

[0038] Based on the current vehicle driving status, obtain the upshift speed value and downshift speed value, and obtain the speed value of the power motor of the first electric drive axle;

[0039] The target gear is obtained based on the motor speed, the upshift speed, and the downshift speed.

[0040] Specifically, firstly, based on the current vehicle driving status, the system obtains the characteristic curve of the power motor (the curve corresponding to torque and speed), road gradient, vehicle load, and vehicle acceleration. Then, based on these parameters, it looks up a preset mapping table between torque, speed, road gradient, vehicle load, acceleration, upshift speed, and downshift speed to obtain the current upshift and downshift speed values. Further, if the power motor speed reaches the upshift or downshift speed value, the gear corresponding to that speed value is determined as the target gear. Each upshift or downshift speed value corresponds one-to-one with a gear.

[0041] In this embodiment, the target gear is determined based on the characteristic curve of the power motor and the vehicle dynamics, which can effectively ensure the overall power performance of the vehicle.

[0042] S120. If it is determined that the target gear meets the preset shifting conditions, the target torque reduction time is obtained, and the first electric drive axle is controlled to reduce torque according to the target torque reduction time. At the same time, the second electric drive axle is controlled to perform torque compensation according to the driver's required torque and the actual output torque of the first electric drive axle.

[0043] The preset shift conditions can be pre-defined conditions required for a shift, such as the vehicle's driving force in the target gear being greater than its rolling resistance. In this embodiment, if the target gear meets the preset shift conditions, the shift operation is initiated based on that target gear.

[0044] In this embodiment, after determining that gear shifting can begin, the process enters the torque reduction phase of the power motor. Specifically, firstly, based on the accelerator pedal opening, vehicle load, and road gradient, the target torque reduction time is obtained by looking up a table; then, the current torque of the power motor of the first electric drive axle is divided by the target torque reduction time to obtain the torque reduction rate; finally, the first electric drive axle is controlled to reduce the power motor torque according to the torque reduction rate until the power motor torque is reduced to 0.

[0045] Secondly, to achieve zero power loss during gear shifts, the torque loss during the torque reduction of the first electric drive axle is compensated by the second electric drive axle. As the torque of the first electric drive axle's motor gradually decreases, the torque of the second electric drive axle's motor gradually increases. Typically, the difference between the driver's required torque and the actual output torque of the first electric drive axle can be calculated as the torque compensation value for the second electric drive axle, and the second electric drive axle's motor can be controlled to output this compensation value to compensate for the torque loss of the first electric drive axle.

[0046] Optionally, determining that the target gear meets the preset shifting conditions may include:

[0047] The maximum available torque of the first motor of the first electric drive axle in the target gear and the maximum available torque of the second motor of the second electric drive axle in the current gear are obtained, and the maximum available torque of the first motor is added to the maximum available torque of the second motor to obtain the driving force of the whole vehicle.

[0048] Based on the current vehicle driving state, the overall vehicle driving resistance is calculated. If the overall vehicle driving force is detected to be greater than the overall vehicle driving resistance, then the target gear is determined to meet the preset shifting conditions.

[0049] In an optional example, firstly, based on a preset correspondence between gears and torque ranges, the torque range of the first electric drive axle in the target gear can be obtained, and the maximum value of this torque range can be taken as the maximum available torque of the first motor. Similarly, the maximum available torque of the second electric drive axle in the current gear can be obtained. The torque ranges corresponding to each gear for the first and second electric drive axles can be the same or different. Then, the sum of the maximum available torque of the first motor and the maximum available torque of the second motor can be used as the driving force of the entire vehicle. Further, this can be achieved using the formula F = fM + C. D AρV 2 / 2+Msinα, the total vehicle running resistance F is calculated, where f represents the rolling resistance coefficient, M represents the vehicle's load mass, and C D Here, A represents the vehicle's frontal area, V represents the vehicle's speed, ρ represents the air density, and α represents the road gradient angle. Finally, if the vehicle's driving force is detected to be greater than its drag force, then the preset shifting conditions can be determined.

[0050] Optionally, obtaining the target torque reduction time may include:

[0051] The vehicle shift shock is obtained, and the shock influence coefficient is calculated based on the vehicle shift shock and the preset maximum shock for ride satisfaction.

[0052] Based on the current vehicle driving state, the basic torque reduction time is obtained, and the target torque reduction time is calculated based on the basic torque reduction time and the impact coefficient.

[0053] In an optional example, it can be based on the formula The vehicle shift shock J is calculated, where i0 represents the current electric drive axle final reduction ratio, i c Indicates the current electric drive axle gear ratio, η represents the transmission efficiency, δ represents the rotational mass conversion factor, r represents the driving wheel rolling radius, and T c This represents the actual torque transmitted by the input shaft of the current electric drive bridge. Then, it can be calculated using the formula k = J / J. max The impact factor k, J was calculated. max This indicates the preset maximum impact level for satisfactory ride comfort, which can be preset according to specified vehicle standards. Furthermore, based on the current accelerator pedal opening, vehicle load, and road gradient, a matching torque reduction time can be obtained by looking up a preset mapping table between accelerator pedal opening, vehicle load, road gradient, and torque reduction time, serving as the basic torque reduction time t. b Finally, we can use the formula t rolloff =t b +k×t b The target torque reduction time t was calculated.rolloff .

[0054] In this embodiment, by comprehensively considering parameters such as accelerator pedal opening, vehicle weight, and road slope, and simultaneously calculating the overall vehicle impact, the maximum impact value for passenger satisfaction is taken into account to calculate the torque reduction time of the power motor, which can effectively ensure the overall vehicle comfort during the torque reduction phase.

[0055] Optionally, based on the driver's required torque and the actual output torque of the first electric drive axle, controlling the second electric drive axle to perform torque compensation may include:

[0056] The torque difference is obtained by subtracting the actual output torque from the driver's required torque.

[0057] Obtain the first gear ratio of the first electric drive axle and the second gear ratio of the second electric drive axle, and calculate the compensation torque based on the torque difference, the first gear ratio and the second gear ratio;

[0058] Based on the compensation torque, the second electric drive bridge is controlled to perform torque compensation.

[0059] In one optional example, the compensation torque = (driver's required torque - actual output torque) × first gear ratio ÷ second gear ratio. Furthermore, the second electric drive axle can be controlled to output this compensation torque additionally to compensate the power of the first electric drive axle. The gear ratios of different electric drive axles can be calculated by dividing the corresponding output shaft speed by the input shaft speed.

[0060] In this embodiment, during each stage of the current axle shift (torque reduction, disengagement, speed adjustment, gear engagement, torque increase), the other axle will perform torque compensation based on the actual torque transmitted to the wheel ends by the current axle and the torque required by the driver of the current axle. This can achieve shifting without power loss for the entire vehicle, avoid the jerking sensation caused by power interruption during shifting, and effectively ensure shifting comfort.

[0061] S130. After the first electric drive axle has completed torque reduction, the first electric drive axle is controlled to perform reverse torque adjustment so that the first electric drive axle can disengage from gear, and the second electric drive axle is controlled to perform torque compensation according to the torque required by the driver of the first electric drive axle.

[0062] In this embodiment, after the first electric drive axle completes torque reduction, the gear disengagement control phase begins. It should be noted that because the vehicle's traction torque remains constant throughout the gear shift (assuming the driver's torque demand on both the front and rear axles remains constant during shifting), and the motor has significant inertia, the engagement sleeve tooth surface experiences considerable pressure (perpendicular to the tooth surface). This can cause disengagement sticking or jerking. To address this issue, in this embodiment, the power motor's reverse torque can be adjusted based on the vehicle's acceleration. Specifically, the power motor of the first electric drive axle is controlled to rotate in the opposite direction to the current rotation direction, outputting a preset, smaller torque value. This reduces the pressure on the engagement sleeve tooth surface, thus enabling smooth gear disengagement.

[0063] During the disengagement control phase, the torque demanded by the driver on the first electric drive axle is completely compensated by the second electric drive axle. Typically, the compensated torque = the torque demanded by the driver on the first electric drive axle × the current gear ratio of the first electric drive axle ÷ the current gear ratio of the second electric drive axle.

[0064] S140. Obtain the target speed corresponding to the target gear, control the input shaft speed of the first electric drive bridge to reach the target speed, and control the first electric drive bridge to shift gears.

[0065] In this embodiment, after disengaging the gear, the speed control phase begins. Specifically, based on a preset mapping relationship between gears and speeds, the target speed corresponding to the target gear can be determined. Then, the input shaft speed of the first electric drive axle's power motor can be gradually increased until the target speed is reached. At this point, the power motor stops adjusting its speed, and the shift control phase begins. During this process, the driver's torque demand from the first electric drive axle is still entirely compensated by the second electric drive axle.

[0066] Optionally, obtaining the target speed corresponding to the target gear may include:

[0067] Obtain the target gear ratio corresponding to the target gear and the output shaft speed of the first electric drive bridge, and obtain the synchronous speed based on the target gear ratio and the output shaft speed;

[0068] The input shaft natural deceleration rate and the shift sleeve's time to eliminate idle travel are obtained, and the synchronous speed compensation value is obtained based on the current vehicle driving state;

[0069] The target speed corresponding to the target gear is calculated based on the synchronous speed, the natural speed reduction rate of the input shaft, the time for the shift sleeve to eliminate idle travel, and the synchronous speed compensation value.

[0070] In an optional example, when obtaining the target speed, firstly, based on the preset mapping relationship between gears and gear ratios, the target gear ratio i corresponding to the target gear is found. tarAnd based on pre-deployed sensors, the output shaft speed n of the first electric drive bridge is obtained. os Then, according to formula n syn =n os ×i tar The synchronous speed n was calculated. syn Furthermore, based on vehicle acceleration, road gradient, and vehicle load, the synchronous speed compensation value n for the target gear is obtained by looking up a table. offset Finally, we can use formula n tar =n syn +n offset +n nat ×t nat The target rotational speed n was calculated. tar n nat The input shaft's natural deceleration rate, t nat This indicates the time for the shift sleeve to eliminate free travel, i.e., the time it takes for the shift fork to reach the synchronized position of the sliding sleeve. The input shaft natural deceleration rate and the shift sleeve free travel elimination time can be preset parameter values.

[0071] In this embodiment, by comprehensively considering the vehicle acceleration, road gradient, vehicle weight, and the time to eliminate idle travel from the shift fork to the synchronous position of the sliding sleeve, the synchronous target speed is accurately calculated, which can effectively ensure the smoothness of the sliding sleeve shifting.

[0072] S150. After the first electric drive axle successfully engages gear, the target torque increase time is obtained, and the first electric drive axle is controlled to increase torque according to the target torque increase time. At the same time, the second electric drive axle is controlled to perform torque compensation according to the driver's required torque and the actual output torque of the first electric drive axle, so as to realize the gear shift control of the first electric drive axle.

[0073] In this embodiment, after the first electric drive axle successfully engages a gear, it enters the torque boosting control stage. Specifically, firstly, based on a preset mapping relationship between vehicle driving state and torque boosting time, the torque boosting time corresponding to the current vehicle driving state is found and used as the target torque boosting time. Then, the driver's required torque for the first electric drive axle can be divided by the target torque boosting time to obtain the quotient as the torque boosting rate. Based on this torque boosting rate, the first electric drive axle is subjected to torque boosting control until the output torque of the power motor reaches the driver's required torque, thus completing the gear shifting control of the first electric drive axle. During this process, based on the difference between the driver's required torque and the actual output torque, the torque required to be supplemented by the second electric drive axle is calculated, and torque compensation for the second electric drive axle is performed through coordination between the front and rear axles. At this time, the compensation torque = (driver's required torque - actual output torque) × first gear ratio ÷ second gear ratio.

[0074] Optionally, obtaining the target torque increase time may include:

[0075] Based on the current vehicle driving state, the basic torque increase time and the power torque increase time weighting coefficient are obtained, and based on the overall vehicle shift shock, the smoothness torque increase time weighting coefficient is obtained.

[0076] The target torque increase time is calculated based on the basic torque increase time, the power torque increase time weighting coefficient, and the smoothness torque increase time weighting coefficient.

[0077] In one optional example, firstly, based on the current vehicle load and road gradient, the basic torque increase time t can be obtained by looking up a preset mapping table between vehicle load, road gradient, and torque increase time. rollon,b Based on the current accelerator pedal opening and the rate of change of the accelerator pedal opening, the power torque increase time weighting coefficient k is obtained by looking up a preset mapping table between accelerator pedal opening, the rate of change of the accelerator pedal opening and the weighting coefficient. rollon,b Secondly, based on the overall vehicle shift shock J, the smoothness torque increase time weighting coefficient k is obtained by looking up the preset mapping table between the overall vehicle shift shock and the weighting coefficient. rollon,c Finally, we can base our analysis on formula t. rollon =k rollon,b ×t rollon,b +k rollon,c ×t rollon,b The target torque increase time t was calculated. rollon .

[0078] In this embodiment, by comprehensively considering parameters such as accelerator pedal opening, accelerator pedal opening change rate, vehicle weight, and road slope, and simultaneously calculating the vehicle's shift shock, weighting coefficients are configured to perform weighted control calculations for torque increase time, thus balancing the vehicle's power performance and comfort.

[0079] The technical solution of this invention involves obtaining the current vehicle driving state and, based on the current vehicle driving state, obtaining the target gear corresponding to the first electric drive axle; if it is determined that the target gear meets the preset shifting conditions, then the target torque reduction time is obtained, and based on the target torque reduction time, the first electric drive axle is controlled to reduce torque, while simultaneously, based on the driver's required torque and the actual output torque of the first electric drive axle, the second electric drive axle is controlled to perform torque compensation; after the first electric drive axle completes torque reduction, the first electric drive axle is controlled to perform reverse torque adjustment so that the first electric drive axle disengages from the gear, and based on the driver's required torque of the first electric drive axle, the second electric drive axle is controlled to perform torque compensation; obtaining the target gear corresponding to the first electric drive axle... The system determines the target speed and controls the input shaft speed of the first electric drive axle to reach the target speed, then controls the first electric drive axle to engage gears. After the first electric drive axle successfully engages a gear, it obtains the target torque increase time and controls the first electric drive axle to increase torque based on the target torque increase time. Simultaneously, based on the driver's required torque and the actual output torque of the first electric drive axle, it controls the second electric drive axle to perform torque compensation, thereby achieving gear shift control of the first electric drive axle. By sequentially performing torque reduction, disengagement, motor speed adjustment, gear engagement, and torque increase control, and through torque compensation via the other electric drive axle, the system can ensure vehicle power while maintaining smooth gear shifting during gear changes, thus improving the user's vehicle driving experience.

[0082] The target gear acquisition module 210 is used to acquire the current vehicle driving status and, based on the current vehicle driving status, acquire the target gear corresponding to the first electric drive axle.

[0083] The torque reduction control module 220 is used to obtain the target torque reduction time if it is determined that the target gear meets the preset shift conditions, and control the first electric drive axle to reduce torque according to the target torque reduction time.
