The test conditions include: pure electric condition, parking power generation condition, working condition, working energy recovery condition, power reversal condition and reverse condition. Perform torque control, speed control, or generator control corresponding to the test conditions; The system collects torque, speed, current, voltage parameters, and 8CAN message parameters of the axle assembly during the testing process to complete the performance evaluation of the axle assembly.

[0028] Optionally, the pure electric driving condition test includes the following steps: Drive motor 1 enters idle mode; The first product motor 5 and the second product motor 6 enter electric mode and drive the axle assembly; The first loading motor 2 and the second loading motor 3 apply positive loading to the rear drive, and the third loading motor 4 applies positive loading to the front drive. Enter torque mode and perform the test.

[0029] (I) Pure Electric Operating Condition Test Method Drive motor 1 enters idle mode, where it is uncontrolled and can move freely without participating in the operation. First product motor 5 and second product motor 6 drive axle assembly 8. First loading motor 2 and second loading motor 3 apply positive loading control to the rear drive of axle assembly 8, then enter torque mode. Third loading motor 4 applies positive loading control to the front drive of axle assembly 8, then enters torque mode. First product motor 5 and second product motor 6 use speed mode to control the speed of the hybrid tractor axle assembly, performing variable speed tests according to the test conditions. First loading motor 2 and second loading motor 3 use torque control to control the torque output from the two rear drive wheels of the hybrid tractor axle assembly, performing variable torque tests. Third loading motor 4 also uses torque control to control the front drive torque of the hybrid tractor axle assembly. By controlling the current of first loading motor 2, second loading motor 3, and third loading motor 4, different torques are generated, performing variable torque tests.

[0030] like Figure 2As shown, the specific operation is as follows: Set the bridge assembly 8 operating condition to: If the simulated power supply 7 SOC value is higher than a certain value, enter the pure electric operating condition; otherwise, return to the previous step (return to the bridge assembly 8 operating condition setting state and select again). Drive motor 1 enters idle mode, and the first loading motor 2, the second loading motor 3, and the third loading motor 4 enter forward loading. In the next step, drive motor 1, the first loading motor 2, the second loading motor 3, the third loading motor 4, the first product motor 5, and the second product motor 6 work together to complete the test. The first loading motor 2, the second loading motor 3, and the third loading motor 4 enter torque mode, that is, control the torque to reach the target value. The first loading motor 2 and the second loading motor 3 enter torque difference mode, that is, set the first loading motor 2 to a fixed torque and the second loading motor 3 to a fixed torque, with a fixed difference between the two. The first loading motor 2, the second loading motor 3, and the third loading motor 4 enter torque difference mode, and the control unit allocates the loading torque of the first loading motor 2, the second loading motor 3, and the third loading motor 4 according to the product design requirements parameters. The first product motor 5 and the second product motor 6 both work in electric mode, which may be in... In electric or generator mode, the system determines whether the direction of travel is forward based on the resolver sensor; otherwise, it returns to the previous level, meaning both the first product motor 5 and the second product motor 6 are in standby mode. If so, it enters speed mode, controlling the speed of the first product motor 5 and the second product motor 6 to reach the target value. The speed mode of the first product motor 5 and the second product motor 6 is combined with the total torque mode of drive motor 1, first loading motor 2, second loading motor 3, and third loading motor 4. In total torque mode, the first loading motor 2, the second loading motor 3, and the third loading motor 4 distribute torque and work together to achieve torque-speed coupling (the motors simulate the torque-speed coupling characteristics of the load according to changes in load size; drive output coupling: the first loading motor 2, the second loading motor 3, and the third loading motor 4 achieve reasonable distribution of output torque according to requirements). First, it enters pre-test (break-in test), then formal test, and finally, the pure electric condition test ends.

First loading motor 2, second loading motor 3, and third loading motor 4 enter idle mode; first product motor 5 enters power generation mode, and second product motor 6 enters idle mode; drive motor 1 drives first product motor 5, and first product motor 5 charges simulated power supply 7. First, pre-charging is performed, followed by formal charging. After completion, the parking power generation condition test ends.

[0034] Optionally, the testing of operating conditions includes the following steps: Drive motor 1 enters engine simulation mode and adjusts its speed according to the test requirements of the second product motor 6; The first product motor 5 and the second product motor 6 enter electric mode, using torque control and speed control respectively; The first loading motor 2 and the second loading motor 3 apply positive loading to the rear drive, and the third loading motor 4 applies positive loading to the front drive. The first loading motor 2, the second loading motor 3, and the third loading motor 4 enter torque mode and perform the test.

[0035] (III) Operating Condition Testing Methods Drive motor 1 simulates an engine by mimicking the accelerator pedal opening. Drive motor 1 responds to the control of the first product motor 5. The second product motor 6 adjusts the speed of drive motor 1 according to test requirements, so that drive motor 1 operates within the corresponding range according to test requirements (the first product motor 5 and the second product motor 6 adopt a dual-motor power split hybrid technology route; through the designed torque, speed, and power distribution, drive motor 1 works in coordination with the first product motor 5 and the second product motor 6 through the control unit). The first loading motor 2 and the second loading motor 3 perform positive loading control on the rear drive of the axle assembly 8, and the third loading motor 4 performs positive loading control on the front drive of the axle assembly 8; the test system motors and product system motors complete the corresponding tests.

Next, first loading motor 2, second loading motor 3, and third loading motor 4 enter torque mode, first loading motor 2 and second loading motor 3 enter torque difference mode, and first loading motor 2, second loading motor 3, and third loading motor 4 enter torque difference mode, distributing loading torque to first loading motor 2, second loading motor 3, and third loading motor 4; first product motor 5 and second product motor 6 enter electric mode, first product motor 5 uses torque control, and second product motor 6 uses speed control. First product motor 5 and second product motor 6 are coupled with drive motor 1 for drive output; the drive output of first product motor 5 and second product motor 6 is coupled with the total torque mode of drive motor 1, first loading motor 2, second loading motor 3, and third loading motor 4 for torque-speed coupling. First, enter pre-test, then formal test. After completion, the working condition test ends.

That is, the drive motor 1 speed is determined according to the idle speed of a real engine. The first product motor 5 and the second product motor 6 are in a power generation state. That is, according to the situation of the simulated power supply 7, the control unit determines the SOC value of the simulated power supply 7. If it is lower than a certain value, it enters the charging state. The first loading motor 2 and the second loading motor 3 perform reverse loading control on the rear drive of the axle assembly 8, and the third loading motor 4 performs reverse loading control on the front drive of the axle assembly 8; thus completing the corresponding test.

The drive output of first product motor 5 and second product motor 6 is coupled with the total torque mode of drive motor 1, first loading motor 2, second loading motor 3, and third loading motor 4 for torque-speed coupling to charge the simulated power supply 7. First, pre-charging is performed, then formal charging is performed. After completion, the working energy recovery condition test ends.

First loading motor 2 and second loading motor 3 perform forward and reverse loading control on the rear drive of axle assembly 8, and third loading motor 4 performs forward and reverse loading control on the front drive of axle assembly 8; thus completing the corresponding shift performance test.

[0042] like Figure 6As shown, the axle assembly 8 is set to the following operating condition: forward power shifting condition. Otherwise, return to the previous step. If yes, proceed to the test: Drive motor 1 enters engine mode and selects idle mode. First loading motor 2, second loading motor 3, and third loading motor 4 enter forward loading.
