Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric vehicles, in particular to a wire-controlled chassis for electric vehicles. Background Art

[0002] As society's demand for cars continues to escalate, the core goal of research on electric vehicles, especially intelligent electric vehicles based on driverless technology, is to improve traffic safety performance, optimize road traffic efficiency, and enhance operational capabilities in complex environments. In various application scenarios, intelligent vehicles may face complex working conditions such as high-speed turns, emergency obstacle avoidance, and driving on roads with poor adhesion conditions (such as ice). These working conditions can easily lead to dangerous conditions such as vehicle skidding and loss of driving stability. Therefore, real-time monitoring of vehicle driving status is particularly important.

[0003] When driving a conventional electric vehicle, the driver can rely on his or her own feelings to judge the speed of the vehicle and whether there is a slipping phenomenon; however, for unmanned vehicles, it is necessary to rely on sensors to accurately monitor the vehicle status. Traditional electric vehicles usually use simple wheel speed sensors to monitor wheel speed, but on slippery roads or icy or dark ice roads, slipping is prone to occur when the vehicle speed is too high. At this time, although the wheel speed of the vehicle decreases rapidly after braking, the actual speed of the vehicle does not decrease rapidly, which is not conducive to the accurate and rapid braking control of unmanned vehicles. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the technical problem that the existing vehicle braking cannot achieve precise control over speed, which is not conducive to accurate and rapid braking control of unmanned vehicles, the present application provides a wire-controlled chassis for electric vehicles.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0006] A wire-controlled chassis for an electric vehicle comprises a vehicle controller, a wheel speed sensor, a multi-axis acceleration sensor, a brake pressure sensor, a steering angle sensor, a steering angular velocity sensor and a CCD camera, wherein the wheel speed sensor, the multi-axis acceleration sensor, the brake pressure sensor, the steering angle sensor, the steering angular velocity sensor and the CCD camera are all connected to the vehicle controller by signal, the wheel speed sensor is used to measure the wheel speed of the electric vehicle wheel, and the multi-axis acceleration sensor is used to measure the acceleration of the electric vehicle; the vehicle controller is used to receive signals including the wheel speed sensor, the multi-axis acceleration sensor, the brake pressure sensor, the steering angle sensor, the steering angular velocity sensor and the CCD camera, and perform vehicle status analysis and / or control according to the received signals.

[0007] As one of the optimized implementation schemes of the present utility model, the electric vehicle is an automatic driving vehicle.

[0008] As one of the optimized implementation schemes of the utility model, the CCD camera is used to collect road information and transmit the road information to the vehicle controller. The vehicle controller cooperates with the wheel speed sensor, multi-axis acceleration sensor, brake pressure sensor, steering angle sensor, and steering angular velocity sensor to control the vehicle's driving status.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are: the present invention has multiple sensor functions, and can accurately measure the wheel speed data of the electric vehicle wheels by means of wheel speed sensors, and effectively capture the acceleration changes of the electric vehicle through multi-axis acceleration sensors. Especially for unmanned (automatic driving) electric vehicles, the vehicle controller can receive and process signals from the wheel speed sensors and multi-axis acceleration sensors, and then deeply analyze the vehicle status and implement precise control. This setting cleverly avoids the risks that may be caused by the reduction of wheel speed due to dark ice or slippery areas on the road while the acceleration of the electric vehicle is still large, ensuring real-time monitoring and precise control of the driving status of the electric vehicle, and providing strong protection for the safe driving of the electric vehicle.

[0019] Example:

[0020] See also Figure 1A wire-controlled chassis for an electric vehicle provided in a first embodiment of the utility model comprises a vehicle controller 3, a wheel speed sensor 1, a multi-axis acceleration sensor 2, a brake pressure sensor 4, a steering angle sensor 5, a steering angular velocity sensor 6 and a CCD camera 7. The wheel speed sensor 1, the multi-axis acceleration sensor 2, the brake pressure sensor 4, the steering angle sensor 5, the steering angular velocity sensor 6 and the CCD camera 7 are all connected to the vehicle controller 3 by signal. The wheel speed sensor 1 is used to measure the wheel speed of the wheel of the electric vehicle, and the multi-axis acceleration sensor 2 is used to measure the acceleration of the electric vehicle. The vehicle controller 3 is used to receive signals including the wheel speed sensor 1, the multi-axis acceleration sensor 2, the brake pressure sensor 4, the steering angle sensor 5, the steering angular velocity sensor 6 and the CCD camera 7, and perform vehicle state analysis and / or control according to the received signals.

[0021] Furthermore, the electric vehicle is an autonomous driving vehicle.

[0022] To explain, in this embodiment, through the wheel speed sensor 1, we can accurately measure the wheel speed information of the electric vehicle's wheels; at the same time, with the help of the multi-axis acceleration sensor 2, the acceleration data of the electric vehicle can be effectively measured; for unmanned (automatic driving) electric vehicles, its vehicle controller 3 is responsible for receiving signals from the wheel speed sensor 1 and the multi-axis acceleration sensor 2; based on these real-time transmitted signals, the vehicle controller 3 can accurately analyze and control the vehicle status.

[0023] In addition, specifically, when there is hidden ice or slippery areas on the road, the wheel speed may be affected and reduced. However, through the monitoring of the multi-axis acceleration sensor 2, it can be found that the acceleration of the electric vehicle may still remain at a high level. At this time, the vehicle controller 3 can respond quickly and avoid potential risks caused by changes in road conditions by adjusting the control strategy.

[0024] Furthermore, the CCD camera 7 is used to collect road information and transmit the road information to the vehicle controller 3. The vehicle controller 3 cooperates with the wheel speed sensor 1, the multi-axis acceleration sensor 2, the brake pressure sensor 4, the steering angle sensor 5, and the steering angular velocity sensor 6 to control the vehicle driving state.

[0025] It can be understood that the utility model has multiple sensor functions, and can accurately measure the wheel speed data of the electric vehicle wheel by means of the wheel speed sensor 1, and effectively capture the acceleration changes of the electric vehicle through the multi-axis acceleration sensor 2. Especially for unmanned (automatic driving) electric vehicles, the vehicle controller 3 can receive and process the signals from the wheel speed sensor 1 and the multi-axis acceleration sensor 2, and then deeply analyze the vehicle status and implement precise control. This setting cleverly avoids the risks that may be caused by the reduction of wheel speed due to hidden ice or slippery areas on the road while the acceleration of the electric vehicle is still large, ensuring real-time monitoring and precise control of the driving status of the electric vehicle, and providing strong protection for the safe driving of the electric vehicle.
