Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of testing equipment technology for new energy vehicle power systems, and more specifically to a new energy vehicle electric drive bench testing device that integrates hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) semi-physical simulation, electric drive power stage bench loading, and intelligent mining and analysis of multi-source test data. It is suitable for joint testing of the performance, reliability, extreme conditions, and fault diagnosis of three-in-one / multi-in-one electric drive assemblies, drive motors, and motor controllers (MCUs). Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid expansion of the new energy vehicle industry, electric drive systems, as the core power components of the vehicle, have seen a surge in demand from companies for electric drive assembly simulation verification, bench durability testing, and controller strategy calibration. Currently, mainstream electric drive testing equipment in the industry is divided into two independent types: pure hardware-in-the-loop simulation platforms and traditional electric drive dynamometer benches. Using these separately results in several inherent technical drawbacks. The devices are separate, and the hardware and software tests cannot be synchronized, resulting in severe test distortion. The existing HIL platform only realizes signal-level simulation of VCU / BMS / MCU, without real power load, and can only verify control logic. It cannot reproduce real power-level operating conditions such as motor temperature rise, overload, and torque loss. Traditional dynamometers can only complete single-motor loading tests, lacking a whole-vehicle virtual environment. They cannot simulate slope, cyclic operating conditions, battery voltage fluctuations, and whole-vehicle torque coordination strategies. The test data deviates greatly from the real vehicle, requiring a lot of real-vehicle calibration to make up for it. The development cost is high and the cycle is long. Incomplete coverage of operating conditions and low level of automation in extreme / failure condition testing: Traditional test benches only support steady-state speed and torque testing. Fault conditions and dynamic extreme conditions require manual parameter modification and cannot generate fault injection test cases in batches. Existing loading mechanisms are mostly fixed rigid connections, which cannot simulate the dynamic load disturbances caused by changes in the half-shaft angle and suspension vibration of real vehicles, resulting in distorted temperature rise, efficiency, and NVH test results. Test data is siloed, lacking a unified data-driven evaluation model: HIL simulation data, bench sensor data, and battery simulation data are collected by three separate software programs with incompatible data formats. Only scattered data can be manually exported for simple statistics, and it is impossible to automatically discover potential performance degradation and hidden faults of electric drives. A standardized electric drive performance database has not been established, and there is a lack of data support for component selection and iterative optimization. Poor modularity of the test bench and weak adaptability for model iteration: The existing bench simulation model is decoupled from the hardware loading unit. When adding a new motor type or a new control algorithm, the entire simulation framework needs to be rebuilt, resulting in a long model calibration cycle. Traditional benches do not support automatic calibration or online model updates, making it difficult to adapt to the testing requirements of the new generation of 800V high-voltage electric drives and silicon carbide controllers. The search revealed that CN219608423U and CN112114210A only optimized the dynamometer loading structure, half-shaft alignment mechanism, and environmental temperature chamber. They did not address the core pain points of deep integration between HIL hardware-in-the-loop simulation and power-stage electric drive test bench, data-driven intelligent diagnosis, and full-condition automated joint testing. They lacked an integrated and complete architecture of "simulation modeling - hardware-in-the-loop - power test bench loading - data mining closed loop". Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the independence of HIL simulation benches and electric drive dynamometers, low simulation accuracy of test conditions, inability to share data, insufficient automated testing capabilities for extreme / fault conditions, and lack of a closed-loop data optimization system, this invention provides a new energy vehicle electric drive bench testing device.

It is compatible with 400V / 800V silicon carbide electric drives, single / dual motors, and multi-in-one integrated electric drives. When new test conditions or new controllers are added, only the simulation model needs to be updated. There is no need to modify the test bench hardware, which greatly reduces the cost of equipment upgrades and modifications and adapts to long-term iterative testing needs.
[0024] 5. This invention uses a central control unit to uniformly synchronize the timing of all equipment, automatically executing hundreds of sets of working conditions and fault test cases in batches without manual supervision; multiple safety interlocks for high voltage, overspeed, and overtemperature make the test safety significantly better than traditional distributed control bench equipment.
