Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of clutch control technology, specifically to a clutch testing method and apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] As a key component in automotive power transmission, the clutch's control precision not only affects the comfort of power delivery but also the vehicle's lifespan. Typically, the clutch maintains control precision through self-learning during vehicle operation, based on its partial engagement (Kiss Point, KP) characteristics. The clutch's KP point refers to the piston pressure required to overcome the release spring force and begin pressing the friction plates and steel plates together.

[0003] Currently, the KP points of the reverse clutch (R clutch) and the torque converter (TC) clutch in a continuously variable transmission (CVT) are obtained through separate testing. This method results in low production line efficiency due to the long testing time. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present application provides a clutch testing method and apparatus that can obtain the KP values ​​of two clutches in one test, thereby shortening the overall testing time and improving production efficiency.

[0005] To address the above problems, the technical solutions provided in this application are as follows:

[0007] Increase the target pressure of the R clutch to increase the first speed difference between the engine speed and the turbine speed;

[0008] When the first speed difference reaches the first preset threshold, the target pressure of the R clutch corresponding to the first speed difference reaching the first preset threshold is taken as the half engagement point KP value of the R clutch.

[0009] While keeping the target pressure on the R clutch constant, the target pressure on the TC clutch is increased to reduce the second speed difference between the engine speed and the turbine speed.

[0010] When the absolute value of the difference between the first speed difference and the second speed difference is equal to the second preset threshold, the target pressure of the TC clutch is taken as the KP value of the TC clutch.

[0013] The acquisition unit is used to take the target pressure of the R clutch corresponding to the first speed difference reaching the first preset threshold as the half engagement point KP value of the R clutch when the first speed difference reaches the first preset threshold.

[0014] The control unit is further configured to increase the target pressure of the TC clutch while keeping the target pressure on the R clutch constant, so as to reduce the second speed difference between the engine speed and the turbine speed.

[0015] The acquisition unit is further configured to use the target pressure of the TC clutch as the KP value of the TC clutch when the absolute value of the difference between the first speed difference and the second speed difference is equal to the second preset threshold.

[0023] Therefore, the embodiments of this application have the following beneficial effects:

[0024] In this application, the target pressure of clutch R is first increased, thereby gradually increasing the first speed difference between the engine speed and the turbine speed. When the first speed difference reaches a first preset threshold, the increase in the target pressure of clutch R is stopped, and the target pressure corresponding to clutch R at this point is taken as the half-engagement point KP value of clutch R, thus completing the test of clutch R's KP value. Keeping the target pressure on clutch R constant, the target pressure on clutch TC is gradually increased. Under this condition, the second speed difference between the engine speed and the turbine speed gradually decreases. When the absolute value of the difference between the first and second speed differences equals a second preset threshold, the target pressure on clutch TC at this point is taken as the KP value of clutch TC, completing the test of clutch TC's KP value.

[0032] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the embodiments of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0033] The inventors of this application discovered through research that the KP values ​​of the R clutch and the TC clutch are currently mainly obtained through separate testing. The advantage of this method is that it allows for separate testing based on their respective characteristics; the disadvantage is that it requires two tests and the testing time is long. During testing on the production line, the increased testing time directly impacts production efficiency.

[0034] In the separate testing method, the process of obtaining the KP value by the R clutch is as follows: Figure 1a As shown. (Through) Figure 1a It can be seen that as the target pressure L3 of clutch R increases, at time t0, the engine speed L1 and turbine speed L2 begin to separate. At time t1, the turbine speed L2 begins to stabilize. After stabilizing for a period of time, the target pressure on clutch L3 is read at time t2 and used as the KP value of clutch R.

[0035] The process of obtaining the KP value by the TC clutch is as follows: Figure 1b As shown, the target pressure of clutch R (L3) is first increased to gradually separate the engine speed (L1) and turbine speed (L2). At time t1, the turbine speed (L2) stabilizes. Maintaining the target pressure value on clutch R (L3) unchanged, the target pressure on clutch TC (L4) is increased. From time t2, the turbine speed (L2) is pulled up by the target pressure L4 of clutch TC. At time t3, the turbine speed (L2) stabilizes. The target pressure L4 of clutch TC at this point is then used as the KP value of clutch TC and stored in the EEPROM.

[0036] The KP value is obtained by observing whether the turbine speed is stable. However, in practical applications, phenomena such as turbine vibration may occur, affecting the accuracy of the KP value.

[0037] Based on this, this application sequentially controls the target pressure of the R clutch and the target pressure of the TC clutch, and obtains the KP value of the R clutch and the KP value of the TC clutch respectively according to the speed difference change characteristics. That is, the KP value of both clutches is obtained through a single test, and the speed difference, not the turbine speed, is referenced when obtaining the KP value of the TC clutch, thereby eliminating instability caused by sudden turbine vibration and improving the accuracy of the TC clutch KP value.

[0038] It should be noted that this application applies to automatic transmissions in gasoline vehicles or hybrid transmissions with TC clutch and R clutch drive systems.

[0039] To facilitate understanding of the technical solution of this application, the following description will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0040] See Figure 2 The figure is a flowchart of a clutch testing method provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0041] S201: Increase the target pressure of the R clutch to increase the first speed difference between the engine speed and the turbine speed.

[0042] S202: When the first speed difference reaches the first preset threshold, the target pressure of the R clutch corresponding to the first speed difference reaching the first preset threshold is taken as the KP value of the R clutch.

[0043] In this embodiment, the target pressure of the R clutch can be directly controlled from a certain value, gradually increasing until a certain point is reached where the engine speed and turbine speed begin to separate. As the target pressure continues to increase, the speed difference between the engine speed and turbine speed also gradually increases. It should be noted that during the process of increasing the target pressure of the R clutch, the TC clutch may not have a target pressure or the target pressure may remain constant at a small value. In this case, the engine speed remains constant, while the turbine speed decreases.

[0044] When the first speed difference reaches the first preset threshold, the increase in target pressure stops, and the target pressure value of the R clutch at this time is taken as the KP value of the R clutch, thus completing the acquisition of the KP value of the R clutch. Simultaneously, this KP value can be stored in an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM). The first preset threshold can be set according to actual conditions, and this embodiment does not impose any limitations on it.

[0045] To ensure the accuracy of the KP value, if the first speed difference reaches a first preset threshold and the target pressure on the R clutch remains unchanged, and the first speed difference is maintained at a third preset threshold for a first preset duration, then the KP value test of the R clutch is considered complete. The target pressure corresponding to when the first speed difference reaches the first preset threshold is then taken as the KP value of the R clutch. In other words, by waiting for the speed difference to stabilize for a period of time before obtaining the KP value of the R clutch, the instability of the speed difference caused by turbo vibration is avoided, thus preventing it from affecting the accuracy of the KP value.

[0046] S203: While keeping the target pressure on the R clutch constant, increase the target pressure on the TC clutch to reduce the second speed difference between the engine speed and the turbine speed.

[0047] S204: When the absolute value of the difference between the first speed difference and the second speed difference is equal to the second preset threshold, the target pressure of the TC clutch is taken as the KP value of the TC clutch.

[0048] After obtaining the KP value of the R clutch, while keeping the target pressure value on the R clutch constant, the target pressure of the TC clutch is increased to reduce the second speed difference between the engine speed and the turbine speed. It should be noted that as the target pressure of the TC clutch increases, the engine speed remains constant, while the turbine speed gradually increases.

[0049] The increase in the target pressure of the TC clutch reduces the speed difference between the engine speed and the turbine speed. To make the subsequent decrease in speed difference more pronounced, the target pressure value on the R clutch is increased by a preset value before increasing the target pressure of the TC clutch, so that the first speed difference reaches a third preset threshold. The third preset threshold is greater than the first preset threshold; for example, the third preset threshold is 50 rpm and the first preset threshold is 30 rpm.

[0050] After the first speed difference reaches the third preset threshold, keep the target pressure on the R clutch unchanged, and then increase the target pressure on the TC clutch.

[0051] Furthermore, to avoid the turbine vibration affecting the accuracy of the KP value, after the first speed difference reaches the third preset threshold and the first speed difference is maintained at the third preset threshold for a second preset time, the target pressure on the R clutch remains unchanged, and the target pressure on the TC clutch is increased.

[0052] As the target pressure of the TC clutch increases, the second speed difference gradually decreases. When the absolute value of the difference between the first and second speed differences equals the second preset threshold, the target pressure of the TC clutch is taken as the KP value of the TC clutch. Simultaneously, this KP value can be stored in the EEPROM for transmission control.

[0053] It should be noted that during the process of increasing the target pressure of the TC clutch, the second speed difference remains unchanged during the first time period. During the second time period, as the target pressure of the TC clutch continues to increase, the second speed difference begins to gradually decrease. The end time of the first time period equals the start time of the second time period; from the start of the second time period, the second speed difference gradually decreases as the target pressure increases.

[0054] As can be seen, this method enables the acquisition of KP values ​​for two clutches in a single test, effectively shortening testing time and improving production efficiency. Furthermore, when acquiring the KP value of the TC clutch, the absolute value of the speed difference between the two clutches is used as a reference, avoiding the impact of turbine vibration on the accuracy of the KP value and improving control precision.

[0055] For a better understanding of the overall implementation of this application, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 The diagram shows how to obtain the clutch KP value.

[0056] (1) t0-t1 time: KP test is activated, R clutch target pressure L3 is directly controlled from a certain value (0.1 bar lower than the lower limit boundary of KP hardware design), and the target pressure is gradually increased. When t1 time is reached, engine speed L1 and turbine speed L2 begin to separate.

[0057] (2) t1-t2: As the target pressure L3 of the R clutch continues to increase, the speed difference between the engine and the turbine gradually increases. When the speed difference reaches a certain threshold (30 rpm), i.e. t2, the increase of the target pressure stops.

[0058] (3) t2-t3: After the target pressure L3 of clutch R stops increasing, wait for the speed difference to stabilize for a period of time (40ms), then confirm that the acquisition of the KP value of clutch R is complete and store it in EEPROM L5. The stored value is the target pressure of clutch R at this time. After that, the target pressure is immediately increased by an offset (0.05bar); by increasing the offset, the speed difference is increased so as to observe the trend of the speed difference increase in the future.

[0059] (4) t3-t4: As the target pressure L3 of the R clutch increases, the speed difference further separates and reaches a certain threshold (50 rpm);

[0060] (5) t4-t5 time: wait for the speed difference to stabilize for a certain period of time (500ms), and when t5 time is reached, record the speed difference SpdDiff_t5 at this time. At this time, the target pressure L4 of TC clutch starts to control and gradually increases.

[0061] (6) t5-t6: During this process, the target pressure L4 of the TC clutch begins to increase, and when it reaches t6, the speed difference begins to decrease.

[0062] (7) t6-t7: As the target pressure of the TC clutch continues to increase, the speed difference further decreases. When the absolute value of the difference between the speed difference at this time and the speed difference at SpdDiff_t5 is greater than a certain threshold (25rpm), it is confirmed that the TC clutch KP value has been obtained, and this TC clutch target pressure is recorded in EEPROM L6. At t7, the target pressures of the TC clutch and the R clutch are restored to their initial state.

[0063] The time period t5-t6 is the first time period, and the time period t6-t7 is the second time period.

[0064] (8) t7-t8 time: After the target pressure of the two clutches returns to the initial state, the speed difference between the engine and the turbine quickly shrinks and returns to the original state. After waiting for a certain period of time (800ms) to stabilize, the test is completed at time t8.

[0065] According to the above technical solution, the KP value characteristics of two clutches can be obtained in one test, which shortens the overall test time.
