However, the braking force distribution coefficient of conventional vehicles is mostly set based on straight driving conditions. The front wheel brakes are usually larger than the rear wheel brakes to adapt to the forward center of gravity shift during braking. When corner modular vehicles move laterally, the center of gravity will shift in the lateral direction. If the original braking configuration is still used, it will lead to an imbalance of braking force between the front and rear wheels, thereby causing the vehicle to deviate during braking.

[0021] Embodiments of this application will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While some embodiments of this application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this application can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of this application. It should be understood that the drawings and embodiments of this application are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application.

[0022] It should be understood that the steps described in the method embodiments of this application may be performed in different orders and / or in parallel. Furthermore, the method embodiments may include additional steps and / or omit the steps shown. The scope of this application is not limited in this respect.

[0023] As described in the background section, with the rapid development of automotive chassis technology, the lateral movement function of corner module vehicles has greatly improved the vehicle's maneuverability in narrow road conditions. However, in actual use, traditional braking schemes are designed based on straight-line driving conditions, and the front wheel brakes are generally larger than the rear wheel brakes to adapt to forward center of gravity transfer. When the vehicle brakes laterally, the center of gravity will shift in the lateral direction. If the original configuration is used, it will lead to an imbalance of braking force between the front and rear wheels, causing the vehicle body to deviate. At the same time, the relevant technologies are difficult to take into account the braking safety of both straight-line and lateral movement conditions, which can easily create hidden braking safety hazards.

[0024] To address the shortcomings of existing braking solutions, the vehicle lateral braking control method of this invention dynamically adjusts the pressure of the front and rear wheel brake cylinders by identifying the vehicle's driving state. This achieves balanced braking force between the front and rear wheels during lateral movement, effectively solving the problem of vehicle body deviation during lateral braking. It avoids the increased costs and adaptation risks associated with hardware modifications, while also balancing detection efficiency and braking reliability.

[0025] The following is for reference. Figure 1 This application describes a braking control method for vehicle lateral movement provided by an embodiment.

[0026] refer to Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a braking control method for vehicle lateral movement in an embodiment of this application.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle lateral movement braking control method of this embodiment of the invention may include the following steps: Step S101: In response to receiving a braking command for the target vehicle, determine the driving state of the target vehicle.

[0028] Specifically, when the system receives a braking command for the target vehicle, it first determines the vehicle's driving status. The driving status may include straight driving, turning, lateral movement (such as skidding or emergency lane change), etc.

[0029] In step S102, in response to the target vehicle's lateral movement state, the pressure of the first brake cylinder of the front wheel of the target vehicle is adjusted to be less than the pressure of the second brake cylinder of the rear wheel of the target vehicle, so that the braking force of the front wheel of the target vehicle is equal to the braking force of the rear wheel of the target vehicle.

[0030] Specifically, if the vehicle is detected to be in a lateral movement state, the braking cylinder pressure of the front and rear wheels is actively adjusted so that the braking cylinder pressure of the front wheel is less than that of the rear wheel, thereby ensuring that the braking force of the front wheel is equal to that of the rear wheel.

[0031] During lateral movement, the vehicle experiences load transfer due to centrifugal force, resulting in changes in the vertical load on the front and rear wheels and altering the tire's grip on the ground. Maintaining normal braking pressure distribution may lead to uneven braking force, exacerbating vehicle instability and potentially causing oversteer or understeer. Adjusting the pressure to equalize the braking force on the front and rear wheels helps balance the slip ratio of the front and rear wheels, improving braking stability and handling, and reducing the risk of sideslip.

[0032] As an optional embodiment, the method further includes: detecting the brake pedal of the target vehicle; generating a braking command in response to a braking operation on the brake pedal; wherein the braking operation includes depressing the brake pedal to a preset travel position.

[0033] Specifically, the system continuously monitors the brake pedal condition of the target vehicle. When the driver presses the brake pedal to a preset travel position (the pressing depth exceeds 30% of the total pedal travel or a calibrated threshold, and the pressing duration exceeds the preset threshold of 3 seconds), the system will immediately generate a corresponding braking command.

[0034] It should be noted that the "preset travel position" is a key threshold. It avoids the accidental triggering of complex stability control logic due to slight, unintentional pedal touches by the driver (such as on bumpy roads), ensuring that the system intervenes only when the driver has a clear intention to brake, thus improving the accuracy and necessity of control.

[0035] As an optional embodiment, the target vehicle is also provided with a braking control; the method further includes: detecting the braking control of the target vehicle; generating a braking command in response to a touch operation on the braking control; wherein the touch operation includes clicking the braking control, clicking the braking control a preset number of times, pressing the braking control, or pressing the braking control a preset number of times.

[0036] If the target vehicle is equipped with a touch-sensitive brake control, the system can simultaneously detect the operation status of the control. When the user clicks the touch component of the brake control, clicks the touch component twice in a row, presses and holds for more than 1 second, or presses the brake button three times in total, the braking command can be effectively triggered.

[0037] It's important to note that in highly automated driving or driverless vehicles in specific scenarios, there may be no traditional driver or the physical pedal may have been eliminated. In this case, braking controls (such as buttons on the steering wheel, virtual buttons on the central control screen, or remote command interfaces) become crucial components for the vehicle control system to directly trigger braking. In traditional vehicles, braking controls can serve as redundant or backup inputs. For example, if the brake pedal sensor malfunctions, the driver can still trigger the system via an emergency brake button. This enhances the overall functional safety level of the vehicle.

[0038] Furthermore, by defining "a preset number of clicks" or "a preset press duration," a higher trigger threshold than a simple single click can be set. This effectively prevents accidental braking caused by unintended touches, improving the safety and accuracy of control. For example, it can be set to trigger emergency braking only upon "rapid double-click" or "press and hold for 2 seconds."

[0039] Once a braking command generated in any of the above methods is received, the system will determine whether the target vehicle is currently in a straight-line or lateral movement state based on data such as wheel speed, steering angle, and vehicle posture collected by onboard sensors, combined with the pre-stored working condition recognition logic in the vehicle control system.

[0040] As an optional embodiment, in response to the target vehicle being in a lateral movement state, the method further includes: acquiring the lateral movement speed of the target vehicle and determining whether the speed is less than a preset speed; in response to the speed being less than the preset speed, determining to perform an action to adjust the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder of the front wheel of the target vehicle to be less than the pressure of the second brake wheel cylinder of the rear wheel of the target vehicle.

[0041] Specifically, the front wheels are the wheels closest to the front of the target vehicle, and the rear wheels are the wheels closest to the rear of the target vehicle. The system first obtains the current lateral speed of the vehicle through the on-board wheel speed sensor and compares it with a preset speed threshold. Only when the lateral speed of the vehicle is detected to be less than the preset value will the system adjust the brake cylinder pressure of the front and rear wheels through the brake control module, so that the pressure of the first brake cylinder of the front wheel is less than the pressure of the second brake cylinder of the rear wheel, so as to achieve a balance of braking force between the front and rear wheels during lateral braking and avoid the vehicle body from deviating due to the imbalance of braking force.

[0042] When lateral movement occurs at low speeds (such as maneuvering or slow turns in urban areas), the vehicle dynamics are relatively mild. Adjusting the front and rear braking force distribution to directly correct the vehicle's posture is usually safe and effective. However, at high speeds (such as emergency lane changes on highways), severe lateral movement (such as skidding) occurs. The vehicle's kinetic energy is high, and its dynamics are extremely complex and unstable. In such cases, simply adopting a fixed strategy of "front wheel pressure less than rear wheel pressure" may lead to improper intervention or even exacerbate the risk of loss of control. High-speed stability should be handled by a more advanced and comprehensive Electronic Stability Program (ESP), which comprehensively controls engine output and the braking force of each wheel. The conditional judgment in this application's embodiment acts as a safety valve, preventing a relatively simple control logic from intervening in potentially complex vehicle dynamics under extreme high-speed, high-dynamic conditions, ensuring that the system only operates within its designed "comfort zone."

[0043] As an optional embodiment, adjusting the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder of the front wheel of the target vehicle to be greater than the pressure of the second brake wheel cylinder of the rear wheel of the target vehicle, so that the braking force of the front wheel of the target vehicle is equal to the braking force of the rear wheel of the target vehicle, includes: determining the front wheel braking force based on the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder, the area of ​​the first brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the front wheel friction pad, and the radius of the front wheel; determining the rear wheel braking force based on the pressure of the second brake wheel cylinder, the area of ​​the second brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the rear wheel friction pad, and the radius of the rear wheel of the target vehicle; wherein, the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder is less than the pressure of the second brake wheel cylinder, and the product of the area of ​​the first brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the front wheel friction pad, and the radius of the front wheel is greater than the product of the area of ​​the second brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the rear wheel friction pad, and the radius of the rear wheel.

[0044] Specifically, the system first retrieves the pre-stored core braking hardware parameters of the target vehicle, and then calculates the front wheel braking force and rear wheel braking force separately. The relationship between the front wheel braking force and the core parameters is expressed as follows:

[0045] Where F1 is the front wheel braking force, P1 is the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder of the front wheel, A1 is the area of ​​the first brake wheel cylinder, u1 is the friction coefficient of the front wheel friction pad, and R1 is the front wheel radius.

[0046] Similarly, the relationship between rear wheel braking force and core parameters is expressed as follows:

[0047] Where F2 is the rear wheel braking force, P2 is the pressure of the second brake cylinder of the rear wheel, A2 is the area of ​​the second brake cylinder, u2 is the friction coefficient of the rear wheel friction pad, and R2 is the rear wheel radius.

[0048] The front wheel braking force F1 is determined based on the pressure P1 of the first brake wheel cylinder, the area A1 of the first brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the front wheel friction pads, and the front wheel radius u1. The rear wheel braking force F2 is determined based on the pressure P2 of the second brake wheel cylinder, the area A2 of the second brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the rear wheel friction pads, and the rear wheel radius u2. Specifically, the pressure P1 of the first brake wheel cylinder must be less than the pressure P2 of the second brake wheel cylinder, and the product of the area A1 of the first brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient u1 of the front wheel friction pads, and the front wheel radius R1 is greater than the product of the area A2 of the second brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient u2 of the rear wheel friction pads, and the rear wheel radius R2. These three parameters are related to the wheel braking force. The braking force output capability (i.e., the basic braking force output limit inherent in the hardware itself) is determined by the inherent parameters of the braking system hardware. Among these parameters, the larger the area of ​​the brake wheel cylinder, the stronger the friction pad thrust, the higher the friction coefficient, and the greater the friction between the friction pad and the brake disc. The larger the wheel radius, the longer the braking torque arm. The larger the product of these three parameters, the higher the upper limit of the braking force output at the hardware level. A larger product value for the front wheel indicates that the braking force F1 output capability of the front wheel is higher than that of the rear wheel braking force F2 output capability. Combined with the fact that the pressure P1 of the first brake wheel cylinder of the front wheel is less than the pressure P2 of the second brake wheel cylinder of the rear wheel, the braking force deviation caused by the difference in hardware specifications can be offset, and the braking force of the front and rear wheels can be balanced during lateral braking.

[0049] As an optional embodiment, the method further includes: in response to the target vehicle being in a straight-line driving state, adjusting the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder of the front wheel of the target vehicle to be equal to the pressure of the second brake wheel cylinder of the rear wheel of the target vehicle, so that the braking force of the front wheel of the target vehicle is greater than the braking force of the rear wheel of the target vehicle.

[0050] As an optional embodiment, adjusting the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder of the front wheel of the target vehicle to be equal to the pressure of the second brake wheel cylinder of the rear wheel of the target vehicle, so that the braking force of the front wheel of the target vehicle is greater than the braking force of the rear wheel of the target vehicle, includes: determining the front wheel braking force based on the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder, the area of ​​the first brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the front wheel friction pad, and the radius of the front wheel; determining the rear wheel braking force based on the pressure of the second brake wheel cylinder, the area of ​​the second brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the rear wheel friction pad, and the radius of the rear wheel of the target vehicle; wherein, the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder is equal to the pressure of the second brake wheel cylinder, and the product of the area of ​​the first brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the front wheel friction pad, and the radius of the front wheel is greater than the product of the area of ​​the second brake wheel cylinder, the friction coefficient of the rear wheel friction pad, and the radius of the rear wheel.

[0051] Specifically, referring to the relationship between front wheel braking force, rear wheel braking force and core parameters, they are expressed as follows:

[0052] Where F1 is the front wheel braking force, P1 is the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder of the front wheel, A1 is the area of ​​the first brake wheel cylinder, u1 is the friction coefficient of the front wheel friction pad, and R1 is the front wheel radius.

[0053]

[0054] Where F2 is the rear wheel braking force, P2 is the pressure of the second brake cylinder of the rear wheel, A2 is the area of ​​the second brake cylinder, u2 is the friction coefficient of the rear wheel friction pad, and R2 is the rear wheel radius.

[0055] After determining that the target vehicle is traveling in a straight line, the pressure P1 of the first brake cylinder of the front wheel of the target vehicle is adjusted to be equal to the pressure P2 of the second brake cylinder of the rear wheel of the target vehicle. Due to the inherent difference in braking force output capability between the front and rear wheels (the product of the area A1 of the first brake cylinder of the front wheel, the friction coefficient u1 of the front wheel friction pad, and the radius R1 of the front wheel is greater than the product of the area A2 of the second brake cylinder of the rear wheel, the friction coefficient u2 of the rear wheel friction pad, and the radius R2 of the rear wheel), the braking force F1 output capability of the front wheel is higher than that of the rear wheel. Under the condition of applying the same brake cylinder pressure, the actual braking force that the front wheel can output will be higher than that of the rear wheel. The stronger braking force of the front wheel ensures the stability of the vehicle body posture during the braking process.

[0056] In summary, this application provides a braking control method for vehicle lateral movement, comprising: in response to receiving a braking command for a target vehicle, determining the driving state of the target vehicle; and in response to the target vehicle's driving state being lateral movement, adjusting the pressure of the first brake wheel cylinder of the target vehicle's front wheel to be less than the pressure of the second brake wheel cylinder of the target vehicle's rear wheel, so that the braking force of the target vehicle's front wheel is equal to the braking force of the target vehicle's rear wheel. Therefore, this application can solve the problem of unbalanced front and rear wheel braking forces and vehicle body deviation caused by using the same braking configuration for straight-line driving when braking laterally in corner module vehicles, without modifying the vehicle's existing braking hardware, and can take into account the braking safety requirements of both straight-line and lateral driving conditions, significantly improving the braking stability and reliability of the vehicle in multiple driving modes.

The method of this embodiment can also be applied to a distributed scenario, where multiple devices cooperate to complete the task. In such a distributed scenario, one of these devices may execute only one or more steps of the method of this embodiment, and the multiple devices will interact with each other to complete the above method.
