Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle brake control, and in particular to a method, system, device and medium for assisting in handling failure of a vehicle brake system. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of automotive electrification, vehicle braking systems are also undergoing continuous iteration and updating. The braking system has evolved from initial mechanical braking to later pneumatic braking, vacuum-assisted hydraulic braking, and then to the current integrated electric-assisted hydraulic braking. Each stage of development of the braking system has significantly improved its performance, but it has also been accompanied by the emergence of some new problems. This requires continuous verification and improvement to make the braking system more comprehensive and safer. This is especially true for the current electric-assisted hydraulic braking, which is prone to failure due to factors such as multiple signals, complex logic, and signal interference from other systems. Therefore, ensuring the safety of the braking system is very important.
[0003] Today, the main popular braking systems in the industry include air pressure assisted braking system, vacuum assisted hydraulic braking system and electric assisted hydraulic braking system. Each system has its advantages and disadvantages, as follows:
[0004] 1. Pneumatic assisted braking system: Advantages include easy operation, reliable operation, low failure rate and easy maintenance. In addition, its air source can be used for other devices besides braking. Disadvantages include low energy transmission efficiency of pneumatic assisted braking system, which is mainly used on large trucks or buses.
[0005] 2. Vacuum-assisted hydraulic brake system: It mainly relies on the engine or vacuum pump to provide vacuum and build pressure for the brake system. Its advantages include good assist effect and easy maintenance. Its disadvantages include dependence on external conditions such as the engine or vacuum pump. For electric vehicles, since they do not have an engine, they need to add electronic vacuum pumps, vacuum sensors, atmospheric pressure sensors and other components to meet the usage conditions, and the layout is more complicated.
[0006] 3. Electric power-assisted hydraulic braking system: It is mainly composed of an electronic hydraulic braking system and an ESC (electronic stability control system) assembly. Compared with the vacuum power-assisted hydraulic braking system, the electric power-assisted hydraulic braking system eliminates the vacuum booster assembly and the braking system's dependence on the vacuum source. Instead, it relies on the voltage provided by the vehicle to drive the internal motor of the electronic hydraulic braking system to provide assistance to the braking system. Its advantages include easy layout and high integration; its disadvantages include that most of the current electric power-assisted hydraulic braking systems are decoupled. When a fault occurs, stepping on the brake pedal cannot effectively build pressure, affecting the vehicle's braking performance and easily causing safety accidents.
[0007] At present, most of the models developed by the main manufacturers are electric vehicles, which do not have an engine to provide a vacuum source. At the same time, the vehicles are equipped with automatic driving technology. Therefore, the braking systems of electric vehicles mostly use electric power-assisted hydraulic braking systems, and the most commonly used system combination is an electronic hydraulic braking system and an ESC assembly configuration to meet the functional requirements of the braking system through coordinated control between components. However, the existing electric power-assisted hydraulic braking system has a high degree of integration, relatively complex control logic, and the brake pedal and hydraulic circuit are completely decoupled. If the electronic hydraulic braking system fails, it will not be able to provide the required braking pressure to the brake circuit, seriously affecting the braking performance of the entire vehicle. Although the national standard requires that the longitudinal deceleration when the braking system fails is ≥2.44m / s 2 However, this longitudinal deceleration is difficult to meet the driver's expectations. If the steering wheel is turned suddenly, it is easy to cause accidents such as rollover.
[0008] At present, electronic hydraulic brake systems have multiple decoupling methods, including:
[0009] 1) Hydraulic decoupling brake: Please refer to the attached Figure 1 The vehicle contains two hydraulic cylinders, a mechanical master cylinder and an electric cylinder. When the electronic hydraulic brake system is fault-free, the master cylinder isolation valve opens, cutting off the mechanical master cylinder and the hydraulic circuit. The driver steps on the brake pedal, and the internal ECU of the electronic hydraulic brake system rotates the internal motor according to the collected signal to build pressure through the electric cylinder; when the electronic hydraulic brake system fails, the master cylinder isolation valve closes, cutting off the electric cylinder and the brake circuit, and connecting the mechanical master cylinder and the brake circuit at the same time. The mechanical master cylinder builds pressure by the driver stepping on the brake pedal to push the mechanical master cylinder. At this time, the electronic hydraulic brake has no power assistance, and the pressure is built entirely by the driver's pedal force.
[0010] However, the above technical solution uses the master cylinder and the electric cylinder to coordinate to ensure deceleration, and the two cylinders are switched through the master cylinder isolation valve. The disadvantage is that if the electronic hydraulic brake system suddenly loses power, the master cylinder isolation valve is stuck, or the seal is poor and leaks, the switching of the two circuits cannot be completed, and the mechanical master cylinder cannot build pressure, resulting in insufficient braking pressure and too small deceleration, which will seriously affect vehicle safety and even fail to meet the minimum deceleration required by the national standard, posing a major safety hazard.
[0011] 2) Mechanical decoupling brake: Please refer to the attached Figure 2 The master cylinder is an electric cylinder, and they share a common piston and cylinder. The brake pedal drives the push rod, creating a gap between the push rod and the master cylinder push rod. This gap is known as the decoupling gap. Under normal operating conditions, when the driver steps on the brake pedal, a displacement sensor detects the movement of the push rod connected to the brake pedal. This signal is transmitted to the controller, which controls the motor, which, through a transmission mechanism, ultimately drives the master cylinder push rod, achieving electric power steering.
[0012] However, if this technical solution fails and the driver presses the pedal, the push rod connected to the brake pedal must first travel a certain amount of idle stroke before it can drive the master cylinder piston to build pressure. This idle stroke can result in a situation where, in an emergency, the driver presses the pedal for a certain amount of time without braking (a soft pedal, no vehicle deceleration), and then presses the pedal for a certain amount of time without deceleration. This situation can cause the driver to panic and pose a safety hazard. Summary of the Invention
[0013] In response to the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a vehicle brake system failure auxiliary processing method, system, equipment and medium, which can ensure that the vehicle deceleration meets the driver's needs while ensuring that the vehicle will not skid or roll over due to the driver's sudden steering wheel, thereby ensuring the stability of the vehicle.

[0061] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and / or scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the invention pertains. It should be understood that certain features of the invention (described in the context of separate embodiments for clarity) may also be provided in combination in a single embodiment. Conversely, multiple features of the invention (described in the context of a single embodiment for brevity) may also be provided separately or in any suitable combination or, where appropriate, in any other described embodiment of the invention. Certain features described in the context of various embodiments will not be considered essential features of those embodiments unless the embodiment is inoperable without those elements. The invention is further described below through specific examples, but it should be noted that the specific process conditions and results described in the examples of the invention are only for illustration of the invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and substance of the invention should be included within the scope of protection of the invention.
[0062] First of all, it should be noted that the ESC assembly of this application, namely the electronic stability control system, mainly includes a solenoid valve, an ECU control unit, a motor, and a hydraulic circuit. Its main function is to adjust the target torque in real time and coordinate the control with the brake pressure to ensure the stability of the vehicle when the vehicle understeers, oversteers, and the brake system pressure is insufficient.
[0063] Electric power-assisted braking is a popular braking system at present. It mainly includes a brake pedal, an electronic hydraulic braking system, an ESC assembly, a wheel speed sensor, an inertia unit, and four caliper assemblies. It achieves brake pressure regulation through electric power assistance.
[0064] The electronic hydraulic brake system mainly consists of a motor, a pedal travel sensor, a solenoid valve, and an ECU control unit. Its main function is to collect pedal travel signals, control the rotation of the internal motor to build pressure, and provide braking pressure for the brake circuit.
[0065] The steering controller is a common controller, mainly composed of an ECU. It identifies the driver's steering intention based on the angle of the steering wheel input, sends instructions to the electric steering gear, and completes the distribution of steering force.
[0066] An inertial unit is an electronic device that contains three single-axis accelerometers and three single-axis gyroscopes. It is used to measure the angular velocity and acceleration of an object in three-dimensional space and use this to calculate the object's posture.
[0067] The wheel speed sensor is a sensor used to measure the speed of automobile wheels. Commonly used wheel speed sensors include: magnetoelectric wheel speed sensor and Hall type wheel speed sensor.
[0068] The ABS control module, whose full name is anti-lock braking system, regulates the four-wheel brake pressure during emergency braking to prevent wheel lock, increase braking strength, and ensure vehicle driving stability.
[0069] The TCS control module, whose full name is traction control system, adjusts the engine torque during strong driving and applies braking pressure to the slipping wheels to prevent excessive slip of the drive wheels, improve vehicle dynamics and ensure lateral stability.
[0070] The AYC control module, whose full name is yaw torque control system, ensures vehicle stability under steering conditions. It uses engine torque control and active braking control to suppress understeer caused by front wheel skidding and vehicle skidding caused by rear wheel skidding.
[0071] Existing electronic hydraulic braking systems are highly integrated, have complex logic, and are structured to decouple the brake pedal from the hydraulic system. If the electronic hydraulic braking system fails, the braking pressure provided by the braking system will be much smaller than when there is no fault, resulting in insufficient longitudinal deceleration when the brake pedal is pressed. This makes it difficult to meet the driver's psychological expectations and can easily cause panic or even a crash. At the same time, if the electronic hydraulic braking system fails and the steering wheel is turned suddenly, the vehicle's yaw angle is too large or the wheels are locked, which can easily cause safety accidents such as rollover.
[0072] To resolve the above issues, please refer to Figure 3 , is a flow chart of the vehicle brake system failure auxiliary processing method of this application, which is detailed as follows:
[0073] Step S100: determining whether the electronic hydraulic brake system of the current vehicle is in a failure state.
[0074] Specifically, the current vehicle of this application adopts an electric power hydraulic brake system, please refer to Figure 4 The electric power-assisted hydraulic braking system of this application includes: a brake pedal, an electronic hydraulic braking system, an ESC assembly, an inertial unit, a left front wheel speed sensor, a right front wheel speed sensor, a left rear wheel speed sensor, a right rear wheel speed sensor, a left front caliper, a right front caliper, a left rear caliper, a right rear caliper, a pedal travel sensor, a brake pressure sensor, a steering gear, a steering angle sensor and a steering controller, etc.
[0075] More specifically, the electronic hydraulic brake system of this application is secured to the brake pedal with bolts and nuts, and the pedal travel sensor is secured to the push rod of the electronic hydraulic brake system. The electronic hydraulic brake system is connected to the ESC assembly, the left front caliper, the right front caliper, the left rear caliper, and the right rear caliper via brake lines. The brake pressure sensor is integrated within the ESC assembly, and the inertia unit is secured at the vehicle's center of mass. The left and right front wheels are connected to the steering gear, the steering controller is secured to the steering gear, and the steering wheel and angle sensor are secured to the steering controller's rotating shaft. The left and right front wheel speed sensors are secured to the corresponding ring gears of the left and right front wheels. The drive motor is connected to the left and right rear wheels via a drive shaft. The left and right rear calipers are secured to the left and right rear wheels, and the left and right rear wheel speed sensors are secured to the left and right rear wheel ring gears of the drive shaft.
[0076] More specifically, see Figure 5 This application matches an ESC assembly to an electronic hydraulic brake system, and adds a set of electronic hydraulic brake system auxiliary modules inside the ESC assembly. The ESC assembly of this application includes an external signal input module, an external signal processing module, a brake pressure sensor, an ABS control module, a TCS control module, an AYC control module, an electronic hydraulic brake system auxiliary module, and a hydraulic control module. The working principle of the ESC assembly of this application is as follows: the ESC assembly outputs pressure adjustment and target torque after comprehensive judgment based on the received external signal input to achieve vehicle control.
[0077] More specifically, see Figure 6 The electronic hydraulic brake system auxiliary module of this application is a general term for the newly added functions within the ESC assembly; it is mainly composed of various chips, including: signal receiving chip, signal calculation and conversion chip, output control chip, etc. The electronic hydraulic brake system auxiliary module within the ESC assembly coordinates the coordinated operation of components such as the steering controller, steering gear, drive motor, drive shaft, left front caliper, right front caliper, left rear caliper, and right rear caliper by collecting vehicle signals from the external inertial unit, left front wheel speed sensor, right front wheel speed sensor, left rear wheel speed sensor, right rear wheel speed sensor, inertial unit, angle sensor, and pedal travel sensor to achieve auxiliary braking of the ESC assembly.
[0078] More specifically, the present application utilizes an electronic hydraulic brake system auxiliary module to determine whether the electronic hydraulic brake system is in a failed state.
[0079] Step S200: When the electronic hydraulic brake system is in a valid state, the current vehicle executes a pressure-building braking strategy.
[0080] Specifically, the pressure-building braking strategy of the present application includes braking by actively building pressure based on the pedal travel signal. More specifically, when the electronic hydraulic brake system is in a non-failed state, that is, when there is no fault, please refer to Figure 7 The driver steps on the brake pedal to push the input push rod of the electronic hydraulic brake system. The pedal travel sensor collects the pedal travel signal and transmits it to the electronic hydraulic control system. The motor inside the electronic hydraulic control system starts to build brake pressure; it is transmitted to the ESC assembly through the brake pipe; the boost valves 1, 2, 3 and 4 corresponding to the four pipes of the left front wheel, right front wheel, left rear wheel and right rear wheel of the ESC assembly are opened, and the brake fluid flows through the brake pipes to the four calipers to realize vehicle braking.
[0081] In step S300, when the electronic hydraulic brake system is in a failed state, the current vehicle executes an auxiliary processing strategy, wherein the auxiliary processing strategy includes: judging the braking intention based on the vehicle braking feedback, and completing the vehicle stability control threshold setting, deceleration distribution of electric braking and hydraulic braking, active adjustment of brake pressure and active adjustment of motor torque in sequence based on the judgment result, and real-time monitoring of the vehicle's wheel slip rate, and correcting the vehicle's steering force in combination with the vehicle's braking feedback.
[0082] Specifically, the failure state of the present application is an electronic hydraulic brake system failure or electronic hydraulic brake system signal loss. When the electronic hydraulic brake system is in a failure state, the electronic hydraulic brake system issues a fault bit identifier, indicating an electronic hydraulic brake system failure. When the ESC assembly receives the electronic hydraulic brake system fault bit identifier or the electronic hydraulic brake system signal loss, the ESC assembly actively takes over the braking system to achieve vehicle braking deceleration control.
[0083] More specifically, the vehicle braking feedback provided by this application includes pedal travel data, steering wheel angle data, motor status data, measured longitudinal deceleration data, measured yaw angle data, measured yaw angle data, and measured steering angle data. The pedal travel data obtained by this application through the pedal travel sensor can include displacement / angle signals. The sensor directly measures the pedal travel distance or rotation angle, reflecting the driver's pedaling depth. The sensor also converts the displacement into an analog voltage or PWM signal using variable resistance or Hall effect technology, which is then output to the ECU.
[0084] More specifically, the vehicle stability control thresholds of this application include a longitudinal deceleration target value, a yaw angle threshold, and a yaw angle angular velocity control threshold. This application determines the driver's braking intent based on pedal travel data and steering wheel angle data, with the determination results including normal braking and emergency braking. Based on the determination results, the longitudinal deceleration target value, yaw angle threshold, and yaw angle angular velocity control threshold corresponding to the braking intent are set.
[0085] More specifically, this application uses vehicle stability control thresholds and motor status data to obtain electric and hydraulic brake deceleration distribution values, completing deceleration distribution between electric and hydraulic braking. The motor status data in this application is the fundamental input for distributing electric and hydraulic braking forces, including the speed and torque of the drive motor. Deceleration distribution is accomplished using either a logic threshold method or a fuzzy control method.
[0086] More specifically, see Figure 8 Based on the electric brake deceleration distribution value, this application calculates the target pressure required for the vehicle's brake system to brake and actively builds pressure to complete active adjustment of the brake pressure. Specifically, this application cuts off the circuit connection between the electronic hydraulic brake system and the four brake calipers by closing pressure limiting valve 1, pressure limiting valve 2, boost valve 1, boost valve 2, boost valve 3, and boost valve 4 related to the electronic hydraulic brake system circuit; the ESC internal motor operates, and the motor drives the pressure to build up, increasing the hydraulic line pressure between the ESC assembly and the four calipers; the pressure value collected by the ESC internal brake pressure sensor is used to determine whether the pressure meets the target pressure requirement, thereby achieving vehicle deceleration control.
[0087] More specifically, the present invention calculates the target output motor torque required for the corresponding deceleration based on the hydraulic brake deceleration distribution value, and sends a torque target value request to the motor to achieve active motor torque regulation. The present invention's drive motor, based on its own judgment and in response to the ESC assembly's torque target value, begins generating reverse motor resistance, reducing motor rotational speed, which is then transmitted to the left and right rear wheels via the drive shaft to achieve electric brake deceleration.
[0088] More specifically, the present application monitors the wheel slip rate of the vehicle in real time, including: when the wheel slip rate is detected to exceed a preset slip rate threshold, decompressing the wheel corresponding to the wheel slip rate to adjust the wheel slip rate to meet the preset slip rate threshold. Figure 9 The ESC assembly in this application continuously monitors the signals from the four wheel speed sensors and compares them to the vehicle speed signal. If it detects that a wheel's slip rate exceeds a preset slip rate threshold, it opens the pressure reducing valve within the ESC for the corresponding wheel, reducing the slip rate to the preset slip rate threshold. Throughout the entire control process, the brake pressure at all four wheels is continuously adjusted to achieve longitudinal deceleration control, while also preventing excessive wheel slip rates exceeding the preset slip rate threshold, which could cause wheel lock and the vehicle to drift.
[0089] More specifically, the present invention utilizes vehicle braking feedback to correct vehicle steering force, including: determining whether the vehicle is currently rolling based on measured longitudinal deceleration data, measured yaw angle angular velocity data, and measured yaw angle data; if so, setting a target steering angle; and correcting the vehicle steering force based on the target steering angle and the measured steering angle data to ensure that the measured steering data is consistent with the target steering angle. Furthermore, the present invention's ESC determines whether the vehicle's yaw state is rolling based on measured longitudinal deceleration data, measured yaw angle angular velocity data, and measured yaw angle data collected from the inertial unit. If so, a target steering angle is set and transmitted to the steering controller in the form of a target value. The steering controller then performs corrections based on the steering angle target value transmitted by the ESC assembly and the measured steering angle data collected by the steering angle sensor. If the steering angle is insufficient, the steering controller actively controls the steering motor to output left and right steering forces to ensure that the measured steering data is consistent with the target steering angle, thereby ensuring vehicle stability. When the measured steering angle data is greater than the target steering angle value, the steering controller automatically adjusts the left and right steering forces of the steering gear to make the measured steering data consistent with the target steering angle value, thereby avoiding vehicle rollover caused by oversteering.
[0090] Furthermore, the method of the present application matches an ESC assembly to the electronic hydraulic brake system, and adds a set of electronic hydraulic brake system auxiliary modules inside the ESC assembly. When the electronic hydraulic brake system fails, the ESC assembly takes over the braking system and realizes longitudinal deceleration control by requesting torque reduction from the motor, reverse dragging the motor to decelerate, and actively increasing the pressure of the ESC itself. At the same time, the ESC inputs the steering angle target value to the steering controller by identifying the longitudinal deceleration measured data of the inertial unit, the angular velocity measured data of the yaw angle, and the yaw angle measured data, to prevent the steering angle from being too large, causing lateral tail swing and rollover failure. The method system of the present application realizes the coordinated control of lateral stability and longitudinal deceleration through the coordinated control of various modules to ensure vehicle stability.
[0091] See also Figure 10 , which is a framework diagram of the vehicle brake system failure auxiliary processing system 400 of this application, including:

[0094] The second execution module 430 is used to execute the auxiliary processing strategy for the current vehicle when the electronic hydraulic braking system is in a failed state, wherein the auxiliary processing strategy includes: judging the braking intention based on the vehicle braking feedback, and completing the vehicle stability control threshold setting, deceleration distribution of electric braking and hydraulic braking, active adjustment of brake pressure and active adjustment of motor torque in sequence based on the judgment result, and real-time monitoring of the vehicle's wheel slip rate, and correcting the vehicle's steering force in combination with the vehicle's braking feedback.
