Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The electronic mechanical braking system is a key subsystem of the new type of driving unit, which usually includes two sources of braking force: a mechanical friction braking unit and a motor regenerative braking unit. Motor braking can maximize energy recovery and reduce brake wear, but is limited by motor power and battery state; friction braking can provide stable and reliable braking force, but reduces energy recovery rate and increases wear. The key to the distribution strategy is to dynamically coordinate the proportion of the two, which is adjusted in real time based on parameters such as vehicle speed, deceleration, battery state, etc. through intelligent algorithms to ensure braking efficiency while improving energy recovery rate, so it directly affects the safety, energy recovery efficiency and driving experience of the vehicle.

Specific Implementation Example 1

[0043] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a test bench for a new type of driving unit. The new driving unit is placed on a road load simulation mechanism, and both the road load simulation mechanism and the motor are connected to a control console.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment uses the development of a vehicle equipped with a novel driving unit (corner module) as an example to illustrate a novel driving unit hybrid braking force distribution test method, including the following steps:

[0045] Step 1: Set the braking conditions as follows:

[0046] ① Emergency full braking condition: The vehicle is traveling at a constant speed of 100±2 km / h on a flat Class B road. Immediately press the brake pedal (the start time does not exceed 0.2s), with the pedal opening at 100%, until the vehicle speed drops to 0.

[0047] ② Medium-speed partial braking condition: The vehicle is traveling at a constant speed of 60±2 km / h on a flat Class B road surface. Immediately press the brake pedal (the start-up time does not exceed 0.2s), with the pedal opening at 50%, until the vehicle speed drops to 0.

[0048] ③Low-speed energy recovery condition: The vehicle travels at a constant speed of 30±2 km / h on a flat Class B road surface. Release the accelerator pedal until the vehicle enters idle state for 3 seconds.

[0049] ④ Continuous braking degradation condition: The vehicle travels at a constant initial speed of 100±2 km / h on a smooth Class B road surface, and brakes at 80% pedal opening every 30 seconds, repeating 10 times.

[0050] Step Two: Based on the test conditions, perform simulation tests on the vehicle dynamics model, output simulation data, and extract the time-domain curves of the loads on each wheel of the vehicle. Use simulation software to construct a vehicle dynamics model that matches the novel driving unit under test. This model is based on the actual parameters of the target vehicle, including overall vehicle dimensions, mass, center of gravity position, moment of inertia, subsystem characteristics, suspension, and tire characteristics.

[0051] Define the input and output interfaces of the vehicle dynamics model. The input interface receives test condition parameters, including throttle opening, brake opening, steering wheel angle and road adhesion coefficient. The output interface includes wheel loads, braking force curves, braking response time, motor torque response, vehicle deceleration, pitch and roll angles, etc.

[0052] Step 3: Convert the operating conditions from Step 1 into corresponding time-domain parameters and input them into the vehicle dynamics model of the new driving unit. Run the operating conditions and record and analyze the various parameters of the preset output interface of the simulation output.

[0053] Step 4: Secure the new driving unit to the tracked platform, ensuring the tires are in contact with the track surface. Connect the suspension mounting points to the tooling fixture, and adjust the suspension spring compression by tightening bolts to simulate wheel load. The fixture structure provides a movement space of ±30° for the tires' steering angle. It is connected to the track platform base by bolts and reinforced with ropes at the four corners of the track platform. The new driving unit is connected to a mobile battery simulator, with control signals input from a host computer. An external water pump establishes a circulating cooling system to ensure thermal management requirements.

[0054] Step 5: Perform bench testing based on the operating data from Steps 1 and 2. The extracted time-domain curves of the wheel loads on each wheel of the vehicle are imported into the control system of the drum test bench as the target load spectrum. The control system generates corresponding loading commands based on these time-domain curves, driving the vertical loading actuators of the test bench to apply dynamic loads to the suspension supports of the new driving unit. This ensures that the force between the tires and the drum surface changes over time in accordance with the simulated wheel load curves, thereby reproducing the dynamic load changes caused by acceleration, braking, steering, and road surface excitation during actual vehicle operation.

[0055] After completing the bench parameter debugging, start the bench test and run the test conditions to obtain the measured performance data, including but not limited to: motor output torque, motor speed, phase current, bus voltage, controller temperature, motor winding temperature, force on the reducer output end, and key physical quantities such as longitudinal force, lateral force and rotation torque at the tire grounding center.

[0056] Step Six: Compare the measured performance data with the simulation data:

[0057] If the error exceeds the preset threshold, proceed to step seven for model correction. Key performance dimensions are selected for item-by-item comparison, including maximum braking force, motor power, and vehicle deceleration. The root mean square error (RMSE) is calculated using the following formula:

[0058]

[0059] In the formula, N represents the total number of sampling times; Represents the i-th sampling time. Actual performance data, Represents the i-th sampling time. The simulation performance data.

[0060] The final judgment logic is as follows: if the RMSE of the measured and simulated data of each wheel end is not greater than 10%, then proceed to step eight; if the error of any wheel end is greater than 10%, then proceed to step seven.

[0061] Step 7: Replace the measured external forces at the wheel ends. When the error exceeds the limit, it is determined that the boundary conditions or system response characteristics of the current simulation model deviate significantly from the actual physical system. At this time, the wheel end external force data (including vertical force, longitudinal force, lateral force, and rotational torque) obtained during the actual measurement process is used as a new input signal and re-imported into the whole vehicle dynamics model established in Step 2 to replace the theoretical load boundary conditions at the corresponding wheel ends in the original simulation model. By rerunning the simulation, the time-domain distribution of the load on each wheel is updated, and a corrected load spectrum is generated. Based on the updated time-domain curve of the wheel load, bench testing is performed again. This process forms a closed-loop iterative mechanism of "simulation-bench testing-data feedback-model correction", continuously optimizing the accuracy of the simulation model until the comparison error between the measured performance data and the simulation data on key indicators converges to within the preset threshold.

[0062] Step 8: Once the error is within the limit, proceed to the performance evaluation stage. Tests are conducted sequentially on each wheel end. The completion of all tests constitutes one full test. At least three tests are performed under each working condition. After obtaining three sets of valid data, key performance indicators are extracted and statistically analyzed. Evaluation indicators include:

[0063] ① Braking distance: The straight-line distance traveled along the direction of travel from the moment the braking command is activated (brake pedal travel is 100% triggered) until the tested module comes to a complete stop. Based on GB 21670-2008 "Technical Requirements and Test Methods for Braking Systems of Passenger Cars", a braking distance of ≤12.5m (preset distance threshold) is set to meet the requirements.

[0064] ② Braking response time: The time difference between when the brake pedal is applied and when the new driving unit generates effective braking force; setting the hybrid braking response to ≤120ms (preset time threshold) meets the requirements.

[0065] ③ Regenerative braking contribution rate: The ratio of motor power to total braking force, used to measure the initiative and efficiency of regenerative energy recovery. The regenerative braking contribution rate is calculated according to the following formula:

[0066]

[0067] In the formula, Cr represents the contribution rate of regenerative braking. , These are the power torque of the electric motor or the braking torque of the electric motor. Total braking force (including friction braking). This is the torque for traditional friction braking.

[0068] ④ Braking Stability: Since the test subject is a 1 / 4 chassis, i.e., a single-wheel system, it does not possess the lateral force and lateral angular velocity of a complete vehicle. Therefore, only the change in lateral sway angle during braking is used as the basis for stability assessment. The range of wheel deflection angle change around the vertical axis (Z-axis) during braking is used to evaluate the lateral instability caused by braking. The lateral offset angle of a single wheel should be ≤2.0° (preset angle threshold).

[0069] ⑤ Braking thermal fade performance: In the continuous braking thermal fade test, the system performance is evaluated through the following steps:

[0070] (a) Initial state: Record the peak torque value when the motor winding temperature is ≤50℃ before the experiment;

[0071] (b) Perform 10 cycles of 0.8g deceleration braking (15s interval);

[0072] (c) Within 15 seconds of braking ending, record the surface temperature of the brake disc, read the current braking force, and calculate the braking force decay rate using the following formula. :

[0073]

[0074] In the formula, This is the maximum braking force during the initial braking. This represents the maximum braking force during the nth consecutive braking action.

[0075] (d) Obtain motor controller data via CAN bus, read the current winding temperature and real-time peak torque value; calculate the motor torque attenuation rate. The formula is as follows:

[0076]

[0077] In the formula, , These represent the peak torque of the motor before and after the experiment.

[0078] Referring to GB / T 18488.2-2015 "Motor Controllers for Electric Vehicles - Part 2: Test Methods", the standard final braking force attenuation rate is set to ≤30% (preset braking attenuation threshold), and the motor torque attenuation rate is set to ≤15% (preset torque attenuation threshold). After calculation, a test report is output.
