Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of hybrid electric vehicles, and particularly relates to a method, system, device, and medium for protecting an electric drive system against blocking during a climbing condition. Background Art

[0002] The electric drive system mainly consists of a motor controller, a drive motor, and a reduction mechanism. The motor controller is a power electronic device controlled by motor control algorithm software. The main circuit consists of an IGBT to form a three-phase bridge circuit, which inversely outputs three-phase alternating current to the stator winding of the drive motor to generate a rotating magnetic field and drive the motor to rotate. In recent years, with the continuous progress of electric drive system technology, the comprehensive performance of hybrid electric vehicles with the electric drive system as the main driving force in the market has been significantly improved, solving the problem of user usage costs under high oil prices. The hybrid technology has gradually extended to the off-road vehicle field mainly based on traditional power and four-wheel drive systems, reducing the long-term high energy consumption of off-road vehicles.

[0003] Due to the characteristics of the electric drive system itself, overheating is likely to occur after a long time of low-speed and high torque, causing the hybrid electric off-road vehicle to suddenly lose power and slide during the extreme climbing condition on a large slope, resulting in safety accidents. During the climbing condition, if the resistance is large, the vehicle speed is close to zero, and the accelerator is deeply depressed to output the peak torque, the current is the largest. Since the rotational speed is close to zero, the current is no longer periodic alternating current but direct current. At different angles, the maximum current acts on different phases, causing serious heating of a certain phase IGBT. If not protected, the IGBT will be damaged due to overheating.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new method, system, device, and medium for protecting an electric drive system against blocking during a climbing condition to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present disclosure is to maintain a certain torque output when the temperature of the motor controller rises during low-speed and high-torque output or blocking conditions, so that the vehicle can avoid sliding and can be controlled to go downhill, improving the reliability and safety of off-road climbing.

Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.

[0047] As Figure 1 shown, a stall protection method for an electric drive system under climbing conditions is applied to the motor controller MCU of a hybrid off-road vehicle. The output U / V / W phase lines and signal lines of the motor controller MCU are correspondingly connected to the input U / V / W phase lines and signal lines of the drive motor, and the method includes the following steps:

[0048] When the preset locked-rotor protection trigger condition is reached, set the carrier frequency to the preset first carrier frequency, and obtain the drive motor data and the motor controller data in real time;

[0049] Dynamically adjust the carrier frequency of the motor controller based on the motor controller data. When the drive motor data exceeds the threshold, exit the locked-rotor protection, and at the same time set the carrier frequency to the preset third carrier frequency.

[0050] The specific steps are as Figure 3 shown;

[0051] The locked-rotor protection trigger conditions include:

[0052] The rotational speed n of the drive motor continuously remains less than the preset first rotational speed n1 and the torque Tq is greater than the preset first torque Tq1.

[0057] When the temperature of the motor controller decreases until it is less than the preset second temperature T2, adjust the carrier frequency of the motor controller to the first carrier frequency f1;

[0058] When the temperature of the motor controller continues to rise until it is greater than the preset third temperature T3, maintain the carrier frequency of the motor controller as the second carrier frequency f2, and at the same time linearly reduce the torque of the drive motor until the temperature of the motor controller reaches equilibrium, and output the preset torque value.

[0059] When the drive motor data exceeds the threshold, exit the locked-rotor protection, and at the same time set the carrier frequency to the preset third carrier frequency, including:

[0060] The drive motor data includes the rotational speed n and the torque Tq;

[0061] When the rotational speed n of the drive motor is greater than the preset rotational speed threshold n2 or the torque is less than the preset torque threshold Tq2, exit the locked-rotor protection, and at the same time set the carrier frequency to the preset third carrier frequency f3.

[0062] The carrier frequency hysteresis curve is as Figure 2 shown.

[0063] In this embodiment, the stall protection method for the electric drive system under climbing conditions specifically includes:

[0064] If the motor speed continuously remains less than 50 rpm and the torque is greater than 165 Nm, then the stall protection strategy is triggered, and the carrier frequency is set to 8 kHz;

[0065] If the temperature of the motor controller continuously remains less than 95 °C, then the carrier frequency of the motor controller is maintained at 8 kHz;

[0069] When the motor speed is greater than the set threshold of 100 rpm or the torque is less than 120 Nm, then the stall protection strategy is exited, and at the same time, the carrier frequency is set to 10 kHz.
