[0051] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of an automatic transmission shift quality evaluation method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to shift quality evaluation scenarios for at least various types of AMT vehicles. The automatic transmission shift quality evaluation method can be, but is not limited to, executed by the automatic transmission shift quality evaluation device in this embodiment of the present invention. This execution device can be implemented in software and / or hardware. Figure 1 As shown, the method for evaluating the shift quality of an automatic transmission includes at least the following steps:

[0052] S1. Design the shift evaluation conditions for an automatic manual transmission (AMT).

[0053] The shift evaluation condition can be understood as the vehicle's driving state. This embodiment designs a special test condition based on the characteristics of the powertrain system to induce specific vibration phenomena. In one specific implementation, the shift evaluation condition may optionally include at least one of the following: idling condition, starting condition, acceleration condition, tip-in / tip-out condition, and deceleration condition.

[0054] The idling condition can be the condition in which the gear is switched between PRND gears, and is used to evaluate the static shift vibration and impact.

[0055] The starting conditions can be assessed by having the vehicle idle at a flat surface and on a 10% standard incline, using 1st gear, 2nd gear...the highest starting gear and reverse gear, with the accelerator pedal at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% respectively. This is used to evaluate the smoothness of the starting process and the degree of clutch engagement jerking. Understandably, if the evaluation vehicle is equipped with an automatic start function, an evaluation of the smoothness of automatic start is also required.

[0056] The acceleration conditions correspond to the operation of the accelerator pedal at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% opening, respectively, starting from 1st gear / default gear and accelerating to the maximum vehicle speed at that accelerator pedal opening. This condition is used to evaluate whether there is a shift shock, jerking, or jerkiness when disengaging and engaging the clutch and selecting gears during acceleration.

[0057] Tip-in and tip-out are transient operating conditions, most likely to occur during normal driving. Tip-in refers to the driver quickly and deeply depressing the accelerator pedal when the vehicle is driving steadily (such as cruising or coasting). Tip-out refers to the driver quickly and completely releasing the accelerator pedal when the vehicle is in motion (such as accelerating or driving at a constant speed). Tip-in and tip-out cause drastic changes in engine output torque, and these rapid torque changes can cause vehicle surging and jerking. Therefore, it is necessary to perform tip-in and tip-out actions at different gears (1st gear to the highest gear) and different engine speeds (1000 rpm, 1200 rpm, 1400 rpm, 1600 rpm, 1800 rpm, 2000 rpm) to evaluate whether surging, jerking, or jerking occurs at different gears and engine speeds.

[0058] The deceleration condition can be the condition in which the vehicle accelerates to the highest gear on a flat road and then releases the accelerator to coast. Downshifting is performed under the following conditions: no braking, light braking (deceleration of 0.1g, where g represents gravitational acceleration), moderate braking (deceleration of 0.3g), and heavy braking (deceleration of 0.6g). This condition is used to evaluate whether there is a shift shock, jerking, or jerkiness when the vehicle downshifts.

[0059] S2. Collect vehicle status parameters and vibration acceleration signals at a set frequency for each gear shift evaluation condition.

[0060] The set frequency can be a sampling frequency of not less than 200Hz. To accurately capture the vibration transmission path of the powertrain system, the acquisition method can be to use a three-axis accelerometer to collect vibration acceleration signals along the X, Y, and Z axes in the vehicle coordinate system to comprehensively capture vibrations in all directions, especially longitudinal vibrations. In another specific implementation, optionally, the vehicle state parameters include at least one of the following: gear position, accelerator pedal opening, engine speed, and vehicle speed. It is known that the vehicle state parameters can be obtained via the CAN bus.

[0061] S3. Perform preprocessing operations on the vibration acceleration signal to obtain a standard vibration acceleration signal.

[0062] S4. Based on the vehicle state parameters, the standard vibration acceleration signal is divided into at least one transient signal segment.

[0063] It is understandable that step S4 can be interpreted as segmenting signal segments based on CAN bus signals (gear position, accelerator pedal opening, brake switch, etc.), dividing them into dynamic operating conditions where the vehicle's state changes significantly, such as the idle static shifting process, the tip-in and tip-out process at different gears / engine speeds, the starting process at different throttle openings / gears, and the acceleration / deceleration shifting process at different throttle openings. One process can correspond to one transient signal segment.

[0064] S5. Calculate at least one dimension evaluation index for each transient signal segment, and determine the comprehensive total weighted value of the current transient signal segment based on all dimension evaluation indices.

[0065] One of the evaluation indicators can correspond to a vehicle usage process, and the total weighted value can correspond to the complete vehicle usage process.

[0066] S6. Evaluate the shift quality of the AMT based on the total weighted value of all transient signal segments.

[0067] The technical solution provided in this embodiment firstly designs shift evaluation conditions for an automatic transmission (AMT); secondly, it collects vehicle state parameters and vibration acceleration signals at a set frequency for each shift evaluation condition; thirdly, it performs preprocessing on the vibration acceleration signals to obtain standard vibration acceleration signals; fourthly, it divides the standard vibration acceleration signals into at least one transient signal segment based on the vehicle state parameters; then, it calculates at least one dimension evaluation index for each transient signal segment and determines the comprehensive total weighted value of the current transient signal segment based on all dimension evaluation indices; finally, it completes the shift quality evaluation of the AMT based on the comprehensive total weighted value of all transient signal segments.

[0068] Therefore, this embodiment, on the one hand, performs preprocessing operations on the vibration acceleration signal to obtain a standard vibration acceleration signal, making the standard vibration acceleration signal simulate the frequency perception characteristics of the human body, matching the physical quantity with the subjective feeling of the human body, and effectively improving the accuracy of subsequent shift quality evaluation. On the other hand, this embodiment calculates at least one dimension evaluation index for each transient signal segment, and determines the comprehensive total weighted value evaluation index of the current transient signal segment based on all dimension evaluation indexes to evaluate vibration intensity. This aims to more precisely characterize the dynamic characteristics of impact vibration under transient conditions, especially caused by sudden torque changes in the power transmission system, which can effectively standardize the AMT shift quality evaluation standard and ensure the user's driving experience.

[0069] Based on the above embodiments or implementation methods Figure 2 This is a flowchart of another automatic transmission shift quality evaluation method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3This is a flowchart of another automatic transmission shift quality evaluation method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is based on the above embodiment and includes additional steps. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the method for evaluating the shift quality of an automatic transmission includes at least the following steps:

[0070] S1. Design the shift evaluation conditions for an automatic manual transmission (AMT).

[0071] S7. Arrange external measuring points for vibration acceleration signals outside the ATM vehicle cab, and arrange internal measuring points for vibration acceleration signals inside the ATM vehicle cab according to the direct contact points with the human body.

[0072] External measuring points can be the engine housing, chassis, or cab mounting points. Internal measuring points are determined based on the direct contact points between the human body and the vehicle, and can be above the driver's seat cushion, the seat back, or the floor near the feet.

[0073] Understandably, the measurement points on the gearbox housing are used to directly measure the vibration of the gearbox body and assess the effects of gear meshing, etc.; the measurement points on the chassis are used to measure the structural vibration that forms the basis of the vehicle's vibration, analyze the impact of chassis rigidity on vibration transmission, and identify structural resonances caused by non-powertrain components; the measurement points on the cab suspension points are used to assess the effectiveness of vibration isolation components and the final vibration level transmitted to the cab; the measurement points above the driver's seat cushion are used to directly measure the vibration transmitted to the human body and assess ride comfort and the final vibration level perceived by the human body; the measurement points on the driver's seat back are used to measure the vibration at the back contact point, analyze the impact of the backrest on whole-body vibration, and assess vibration transmission in a specific direction; and the measurement points on the foot floor are used to measure the vibration transmitted directly to the driver's feet through the floor.

[0074] S2. Collect vehicle status parameters and vibration acceleration signals at a set frequency for each gear shift evaluation condition.

[0075] S3. Perform preprocessing operations on the vibration acceleration signal to obtain a standard vibration acceleration signal.

[0076] Preprocessing can involve filtering and frequency-weighting the vibration acceleration signals from human contact points such as seat cushions, seat backs, and footwells according to the GB / T 13441.1-2007 standard. It's understandable that, despite different excitation sources, vibration is ultimately perceived by the human body. Therefore, the vibration acceleration signals transmitted to human contact points such as seat rails, seat cushions, and seat backs can also be frequency-weighted filtered according to GB / T 13441.1-2007 to simulate the frequency perception characteristics of the human body, matching physical quantities with subjective human perception. For structural vibration points such as the gearbox housing, frame, and cab suspension, the goal is to diagnose the characteristics of the vibration source, analyze the vibration transmission path, and evaluate the effectiveness of vibration isolation components. What's needed is the physical vibration quantity, that is, to reflect the vibration intensity and frequency components of the structure itself as realistically as possible, without being distorted by human perception characteristics. Therefore, the vibration acceleration signals from structural vibration points such as the gearbox housing, frame, and cab suspension retain their original characteristics, i.e., unweighted vibration acceleration time histories are used to calculate vibration intensity and other indicators.

[0077] S41. Based on vehicle state parameters, the standard vibration acceleration signal is divided into the idle static shift transient signal segment, the Tip in / Tip out transient signal segment, the start transient signal segment, and the acceleration / deceleration shift transient signal segment.

[0078] For transient conditions where the vehicle's state changes significantly, such as starting, acceleration, tip-in / tip-out, and deceleration, the vibration intensity is evaluated using evaluation indicators such as maximum instantaneous vibration value (MTVV), vibration dose value (VDV), peak value of acceleration change rate, standard deviation of acceleration change rate, impact duration, and number of impacts. This aims to more precisely characterize the dynamic characteristics of impact vibrations under transient conditions, especially those caused by sudden torque changes in the power transmission system.

[0079] S51. Calculate the vibration dose value, maximum instantaneous vibration value, peak value of acceleration change rate, standard deviation of acceleration change rate, impact duration and number of impacts for each transient signal segment to obtain the corresponding dimensional evaluation indicators.

[0080] The vibration dose value can be obtained using the vibration dose method (VDV, unit). It was determined that the vibration dose method is more sensitive to peak values, and its calculation formula is as follows:

[0081] ;

[0082] In the formula, For weighted acceleration time history, the unit is . ; Action time (unit: Random shocks and transient vibrations are considered by using a short integral time constant.

[0083] Furthermore, the vibration amplitude is defined as the maximum instantaneous vibration value (MTVV, unit) ), is by Given the maximum value over time, The defining formula is:

[0084] ;

[0085] In the formula, Calculate acceleration for instantaneous frequency; The average integration time (default is 1 second). For time (integral variable); Let be the observation time (instantaneous time). The maximum instantaneous vibration value MTVV can then be determined by the following formula:

[0086] ;

[0087] In the formula, In a measurement cycle Inside The maximum value.

[0088] Peak rate of change of acceleration (Jerk) peak This can be a weighted acceleration signal. The absolute maximum value of the first derivative with respect to time is calculated using the following formula:

[0089] ;

[0090] Its physical meaning is the degree of drastic change in vibration acceleration, reflecting the rate of change of force / torque and the instantaneous sharpness of the impact. The unit is usually m / s³. The human body is very sensitive to the rate of change of acceleration; a high peak value of the rate of change of acceleration directly corresponds to the subjective feeling of impact and jerking. For example, in tip-in conditions, an extremely high peak value of the rate of change of acceleration often means that the throttle response is too sensitive and the power delivery is not smooth. In start-up conditions, if the engine torque and vehicle resistance torque are not well matched at the moment of clutch engagement, or if the clutch engagement speed is too fast, it will cause a sudden loading of vehicle power, producing an extremely high peak value of the rate of change of acceleration, corresponding to the subjective feeling of "lurching forward" or "jerkiness." In acceleration / deceleration upshifting / downshifting conditions, if the rate of change of torque during the torque increase and decrease phases is too fast, it will produce a large peak value of the rate of change of acceleration, corresponding to the subjective feeling of "shifting shock" or "shifting jerking."

[0091] Standard deviation of the rate of change of acceleration (Jerk) std (This refers to the time period for transient analysis) Inner Jerk peak The standard deviation of is calculated using the following formula:

[0092] ;

[0093] in, , During this period The average value, This is the weighted acceleration time history. This index calculates the rate of change of acceleration over the entire transient event analysis period. The magnitude of the fluctuations deviating from the average value, i.e., its dispersion, characterizes the process of establishing vibration stability. A smaller standard deviation means that after the shock, the vibration can quickly and smoothly converge to a new stable state; while a larger standard deviation indicates that during the transient process, the acceleration changes erratically, with continuous "surge" or "shaking," corresponding to "unsmoothness" in subjective evaluation.

[0094] Impact duration is used to quantify the total time from the start to the end of a single jitter / impact, and is calculated using the following formula:

[0095] ;

[0096] in, The moment of impact initiation is the moment when the acceleration signal first exceeds the threshold continuously. This is the moment when the acceleration signal last falls below the threshold and remains stable. If the impact duration is too long, it indicates insufficient system damping and slow vibration decay, giving the impression of "significant aftershocks"; if the duration is too short but the peak value is too high, it gives the impression of a "collision".

[0097] Furthermore, in a single transient condition (such as a gear shift or a tip-in), the vibration energy may not be in a single-peak form, but rather exhibit multiple rises and falls. The impact count is used to statistically analyze the number of significant vibration impact events occurring within the analysis period. An amplitude threshold and a minimum time interval threshold need to be set, and then the number of peak points exceeding the amplitude threshold is counted, with the time interval between adjacent peak points needing to be greater than the minimum time interval threshold.

[0098] S52. Determine the overall weighted value of the current transient signal segment based on all dimensions of evaluation indicators.

[0099] Understandably, in order to conduct correlation analysis between vibration evaluation indicators and corresponding subjective evaluation scores, it is necessary to calculate the total weighted MTVV value and VDV value at each measuring point. Value and The value is calculated using the following formula:

[0100] ;

[0101] In the formula, , , They are respectively Axial, Axial, Axial MTVV, VDV, Jerk peak and Jerk std Indicator value, These represent n measurement points, such as the area above the seat cushion and the driver's cab floor. The total weighted value is then calculated. Calculated by the following formula:

[0102] ;

[0103] S6. Evaluate the shift quality of the AMT based on the total weighted value of all transient signal segments.

[0104] In another specific implementation, to verify the effectiveness and practicality of the evaluation method constructed in this patent, this embodiment also includes a verification stage. The verification stage includes the following specific steps: the evaluation engineer subjectively scores each shift condition according to a 10-point scoring standard, calculates the comprehensive weighted value of each objective indicator, and establishes a correlation model between the objective indicators and the subjective scores:

[0105] During the verification phase, experienced evaluation engineers subjectively score the smoothness under each operating condition immediately after each test, using a unified scoring criterion. The average score from multiple tests is then taken as the subjective evaluation score for that operating condition, using a 10-point scoring system. Finally, a correlation analysis is performed on the vibration evaluation indicators and their corresponding subjective evaluation scores based on the calculation results. When the correlation between the objective indicators and the subjective scores is ≥80%, the automated evaluation of AMT shifting quality is completed.

[0106] More specifically, this embodiment selects a representative starting condition for case analysis. As a typical transient process of a vehicle transitioning from a static to a dynamic state, the starting condition comprehensively reflects the torque response of the powertrain system, the clutch engagement quality, and the overall vehicle inertial response, making it a key scenario for evaluating ride comfort.

[0107] During the test, three-dimensional vibration acceleration signals from the seat cushion and floor were simultaneously collected. Vehicle status parameters such as accelerator pedal opening, engine speed, vehicle speed, and transmission gear position were also recorded via the CAN bus. Experienced evaluation engineers subjectively scored the ride comfort under each condition immediately after each test, using a standardized scoring criterion. The average score from multiple tests was taken as the subjective evaluation score for that condition, using a 10-point scoring system. It should be noted that the verification analysis in this example primarily focuses on verifying whether the proposed objective indicators accurately reflect the final subjective experience of the driver and passengers. Therefore, data collection and analysis are concentrated on the points of direct human contact (seat and floor). Vibration measurement points on structures such as the transmission housing, frame, and cab mounting points are primarily used for vibration source identification and transmission path diagnosis, belonging to a deeper level of engineering problem analysis and optimization, and are not included in the verification scope of this example.

[0108] On a flat asphalt road surface, under full load, a test vehicle underwent start-up tests in both A and M modes: the AMT transmission was in 2nd gear, and the accelerator pedal opening was fixed at four typical operating conditions: 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. Each operating condition was repeated three times to ensure data repeatability and reliability. After preprocessing the collected raw signals, calculations were performed strictly according to the method. Table 1 is a subjective evaluation result table provided in this embodiment, and Tables 2-5 are objective evaluation result tables provided in this embodiment. As shown in Tables 1-5, with the increase of accelerator pedal opening (from 25% to 100%), MTVV, VDV, and Jerk... peak The three objective indicators generally showed an upward trend, while the corresponding subjective scores showed a downward trend. In addition, under full load conditions, when performing straight-line start-up operations with different throttle openings in second gear, the subjective feeling was that the vehicle exhibited obvious vibration in the Y direction. Objective test data showed that under this condition, the peak value of the vibration acceleration change rate in the Y direction was significantly higher than the vibration indicators in other directions, which preliminarily verified the consistency between the objective indicators and subjective feelings.

[0127] In summary, this embodiment deploys three-dimensional acceleration sensors at key locations such as the seat cushion, floor, backrest, gearbox housing, frame, and cab suspension to collect vibration acceleration signals under core AMT shifting performance evaluation conditions, including idling, starting, acceleration, and braking. Frequency-weighted filtering is applied to signals from human contact points, while preserving the original characteristics of signals from structural vibration points. Objective evaluation indicators such as vibration dose value (VDV), maximum instantaneous vibration value (MTVV), peak acceleration rate of change, standard deviation of acceleration rate of change, impact duration, and number of impacts are calculated to construct a multi-dimensional evaluation indicator system. Finally, the objective indicators are correlated with subjective scores to achieve automated and precise evaluation of AMT shifting quality, providing data support for AMT shifting performance optimization.
