Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of engineering machinery, and in particular relates to a control method, a device and a storage medium for a low-temperature clutch of an electric drive transmission of an engineering machinery. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing demand for energy conservation and emission reduction in the construction machinery market, electric-driven fully automatic transmissions have been developed to meet this demand. These transmissions utilize a wet clutch to achieve power-free control. Considering the overall machine requirements, an electric oil pump is used to provide the pressure and lubrication flow required for the fully automatic transmission.

[0003] Construction machinery's wet clutches experience a dramatic increase in oil viscosity at low temperatures (at -30°C, viscosity can reach over 10 times that of room temperature). This leads to prolonged pressure buildup (50%-80%), increased shift shock (peak shock >2000N·m), low transmission efficiency, and even power outages. Addressing clutch response lag and shift shock in low-temperature environments, as well as achieving optimal control of wet clutches in electric transmissions at low temperatures, remain pressing technical challenges.

[0004] Most existing technologies use single temperature or pressure compensation, relying only on oil temperature correction, without integrating multiple source parameters such as motor winding temperature and ambient temperature, resulting in large errors in low-temperature pressure buildup time; the clutch phased control fails to achieve real-time matching of motor torque and clutch pressure, resulting in significant gear shifting delays and even possible power interruption, which cannot meet the stable operation requirements of construction machinery; under low-temperature conditions, traditional preheating relies on the engine or independent heater, with a high energy consumption ratio, which is not conducive to the energy distribution of the electric drive machine.

[0072] Example 1

[0073] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a low-temperature clutch control system for an electric-drive transmission in construction machinery, which coordinates the control of the drive motor and wet clutch in an electric-drive fully automatic transmission. The low-temperature clutch control system comprises a transmission control unit (TCU), a drive motor control unit (MCU), an electric oil pump control unit (EOP), a vehicle control unit (VCU), a transmission cooling fan, a power battery, a shift handle, an output speed sensor, a pressure sensor, and a temperature sensor. The MCU, EOP, and transmission cooling fan are connected to the power battery via a high-voltage wiring harness, while the shift handle is directly connected to the TCU. Sensor signals collected by the output speed sensor, pressure sensor, and temperature sensor that detect the transmission status are directly transmitted to the TCU. Information exchange between the TCU, MCU, EOP, cooling fan, and VCU is accomplished via the CAN bus, enabling the status of each component to be controlled via the bus.

[0074] The transmission control unit TCU receives information from the shift handle to determine whether the transmission is in the starting or shifting state; it receives information from the output speed sensor to calculate the vehicle speed and determine whether the speed threshold is triggered. ; Receive pressure sensor information to detect the wet clutch engagement state and determine whether to trigger the fast charging stage pressure threshold 、 Stage pressure threshold ; Receive temperature sensor information to detect the temperature status of the gearbox body and the environment, and determine whether the gearbox transmission oil temperature threshold is triggered , Ambient temperature threshold ;TCU collects the actual output torque of the drive motor through the bus and determines whether the torque threshold is triggered The transmission collects internal speed data to determine the actual operating status of the wet clutch during engagement. The transmission oil is cooled by a cooling fan. The EOP provides a pressurized oil source within the transmission, enabling the wet clutch to engage and thus transmit power.

[0075] The hardware connection diagram of the electric drive transmission low temperature clutch cooperative control system is as follows Figure 3 As shown, the TCU collects relevant signals from the shift handle, speed sensor, pressure sensor, and temperature sensor for comprehensive judgment. After calculation, the TCU directly controls the solenoid valve of the wet clutch inside the power shift transmission through the wiring harness, and gives different current curves to achieve the exchange of wet clutch shift torque; the drive motor is directly connected to the power shift transmission. The TCU sends speed or torque requirements to the MCU through the CAN bus according to the starting or shifting requirements. The MCU changes the corresponding drive current, thereby changing the input speed or torque of the power shift transmission; the transmission provides a pressure oil source through the EOP to provide pressure to the wet clutch and lubricate components such as the power shift transmission bearings; the transmission output shaft is directly connected to the vehicle's drive shaft or drive axle to drive the wheels and tires, etc. The cooling fan ensures that the operating temperature of the transmission is within a reasonable range.

[0076] The automatic transmission shift clutch engagement logic in this embodiment is shown in Table 1. The transmission is combined into three forward gears and three reverse gears through three clutch packs, without a directional clutch, and the forward or reverse movement of the entire machine is achieved by changing the rotation direction of the drive motor.

[0079] The control process of the low-temperature clutch control method for realizing the low-temperature clutch of the electric drive transmission of the engineering machinery by the low-temperature clutch control system is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the figure, based on the characteristics of gearbox power transmission, the specific control strategy of the electric oil pump is designed. The specific steps are as follows:

[0080] S1: First, each control unit is powered on for self-test. If there is no shutdown fault, proceed to the next step. After the whole machine is powered on with high voltage (after the whole machine is powered on with high voltage, the vehicle control unit VCU will feedback signal), the TCU makes a comprehensive judgment based on the collected handle gear information, transmission speed information, pressure information, and temperature information, and executes the next operation.

[0081] S2: If the current temperature of the transmission oil Greater than the minimum transmission temperature threshold , the gearbox is considered to be in normal temperature control mode, otherwise it enters low temperature control state; in low temperature control state, it is necessary to increase the current speed of the electric oil pump EOP to the maximum value ; Temporarily turn off the cooling fan to allow the transmission oil to heat up. When the current temperature of the transmission oil is Greater than the maximum transmission temperature threshold or the current temperature of the environment Greater than the ambient temperature threshold Then consider turning on the cooling fan to dissipate the heat of the transmission oil.

[0082] S3: Based on the gear information monitored by the transmission, the TCU determines that if the transmission is performing a starting condition, the TCU performs a starting control in low-temperature mode; if the transmission is performing a shifting condition, the TCU performs a shifting control in low-temperature mode; otherwise, the TCU performs a return control.

[0083] The control flow of the clutch cooperative control subroutine for the low-temperature starting condition of the electric drive transmission in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 4 The specific steps are as follows:

[0084] S31: After entering the low temperature start control program, detect the speed sensor and other related information. If the current speed Less than the speed threshold , it enters the wet clutch static state start control, otherwise it enters the wet clutch driving state start control.

[0085] S311: The timing diagram of the coordinated control of starting in the stationary state of the wet clutch is as follows Figure 5 shown.

[0086] When the whole machine is in a stationary state, the drive motor is controlled to enter the speed control mode and the real-time speed is given. ; At the same time, the solenoid valve corresponding to the starting gear clutch is controlled to be in the fully open state (combined with the given current of the solenoid valve ), on the basis of ensuring overcoming the viscosity of the transmission oil, quickly establish the corresponding clutch pack pressure; detect the clutch pack pressure, the current combined clutch pack pressure Slowly reduce the clutch pack current until the preset Point demand current , to prevent the clutch from quickly engaging and impacting, which will affect the life of the clutch; Phased adoption increments Control, combined with the given solenoid valve current, can accurately control the clutch pack pressure to maintain A certain period of time can ensure that the pressure in the slow combination process is stable.

[0087] Increment The controls are as follows:

[0088] ,

[0089] in, Indicates the combined solenoid valve current, is the proportionality coefficient, is the integration coefficient, is the deviation value of the kth pressure, For the The clutch pack pressure deviation value, For the clutch pack pressure, For the clutch pack pressure.

[0090] Clutch pack pressure is maintained at After a certain period of time, quickly increase the clutch pack current to the maximum value , completing a quick and stable start when the entire machine is stationary.

[0091] S312: The timing diagram of the cooperative control of starting in the wet clutch driving state is as follows Figure 6 shown.

[0092] When the machine is in driving state, in order to ensure the rapid pressure build-up of the starting gear clutch, keep the corresponding solenoid valve in the fully open state, and the current clutch pressure , slowly reduce the corresponding current to In this stage, the incremental Control, clutch pack pressure is maintained at After a certain period of time, quickly increase the clutch pack current to the maximum value This process ensures rapid pressure buildup while achieving rapid clutch engagement. At the same time, the drive motor is controlled to enter speed control mode. To ensure the speed difference between the front and rear ends of the clutch in the starting gear, the real-time speed of the drive motor is given according to the output speed of the rear end of the clutch. The corresponding given speed is as follows:

[0093] ,

[0094] in, is the starting gear ratio, Output speed for the gearbox in real time.

[0095] By controlling the real-time speed of the drive motor, the speed difference between the front and rear ends of the starting clutch is eliminated, so that there is no speed jump during the engagement process, and the engagement process is smoother.

[0096] The control flow of the clutch cooperative control subroutine for the low temperature shifting condition of the electric drive transmission of the present invention is as follows: Figure 7 The specific steps are as follows:

[0097] S32: After entering the low temperature shift control program, detect the speed sensor and other related information. If the current speed Less than the speed threshold When the gear is shifted, the wet clutch enters the stationary state. Otherwise, the wet clutch enters the driving state.

[0098] S321: The wet clutch shift coordination control timing diagram is as follows: Figure 8 shown.

[0099] When the whole machine is in a stationary state, the drive motor is controlled to enter the torque control mode and the real-time torque is given. At the same time, the current of the solenoid valve corresponding to the clutch is controlled to drop quickly to the closed state, and the solenoid valve corresponding to the clutch is controlled to be in the fully open state (combined with the given current of the solenoid valve ), current engaged clutch pack pressure When the clutch solenoid valve is engaged, slowly reduce the current to In this stage, the incremental Control, clutch pack pressure maintained at After a certain period of time, quickly increase the clutch pack current to the maximum value This process ensures rapid pressure buildup while achieving rapid clutch engagement, completing fast and stable gear shifting when the entire machine is stationary.

[0100] S322: The gear shift coordination control timing diagram in wet clutch driving state is as follows: Figure 9 shown.

[0101] When the whole machine is in the driving state, in order to ensure the rapid pressure building of the clutch, it is necessary to first control the current of the solenoid valve corresponding to the disengaging clutch to drop quickly to a certain current and then maintain it, to ensure that the disengaging clutch has a certain pressure to prevent power interruption. Subsequently, as the speed difference between the front and rear ends of the clutch gradually decreases to a certain level, the solenoid valve of the disengaging clutch is directly closed; at the same time, the solenoid valve corresponding to the clutch is controlled to be in a fully open state. The current clutch pressure When the clutch solenoid valve is engaged, slowly reduce the current to In this stage, the incremental Control, clutch pack pressure is maintained at After a certain period of time, quickly increase the clutch pack current to the maximum value This process ensures rapid pressure buildup while achieving rapid clutch engagement; at the same time, the drive motor is controlled to enter torque control mode. To ensure synchronization of the speeds of the front and rear ends of the clutch during the shifting process, the real-time torque of the drive motor is first reduced according to the speed difference between the front and rear ends of the clutch, and then the speed difference is reduced until it is less than the speed difference threshold. After that, the real-time torque of the drive motor is increased to ensure the power of the whole machine. The given value of the drive motor torque after speed synchronization is as follows:

[0102] ,

[0103] in, To disengage the gear ratio, To combine the gear ratio, is the real-time torque given by the drive motor when the gearbox speed is synchronized, Real-time torque of the drive motor before shifting the transmission.

[0104] Through the coordinated control of the real-time torque of the drive motor and the current pressure of the clutch pack, gear shifting can be carried out in a timely manner without power interruption, so that the clutch pressure can be quickly built up, the front and rear end speeds can be quickly synchronized during the gear shifting process, and the smoothness of the gear shifting process can be improved.
