Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric bicycle power control technology, and in particular to an electric bicycle uphill power control system. Background Technology
[0002] The torque control mode of electric bicycles under current standard technical conditions is adjusted by the output information of the Hall effect throttle rotation angle, which is a linear power output. The existing power control mode is a mechanical control mode, which cannot sense the riding posture of the user and the vehicle. Once climbing or starting from zero on an incline, insufficient power will occur, especially when carrying a passenger uphill, the vehicle will frequently feel powerless, which is not conducive to use in various road conditions. To solve the above problems, an uphill power control system for electric bicycles is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an electric bicycle uphill power control system. The system comprises a bicycle frame, characterized in that it is equipped with a Hall effect throttle, a gyroscope, a Hall effect throttle sensing module, a vehicle operating condition attitude sensing module, a motor control module, and a DC brushless permanent magnet motor. The Hall effect throttle is connected to the Hall effect throttle sensing module, the gyroscope is connected to the vehicle operating condition attitude sensing module, and both the Hall effect throttle sensing module and the vehicle operating condition attitude sensing module are connected to the motor control module. The motor control module controls the operation of the DC brushless permanent magnet motor.
[0004] Furthermore, the Hall effect throttle sensing module senses the rotation angle of the Hall effect throttle as rotation angle α;
[0005] Furthermore, the vehicle's attitude sensing uses a quaternion algorithm to obtain the longitudinal forward and backward tilt angles β of the vehicle body;
[0006] Furthermore, the vehicle attitude sensing obtains the longitudinal forward and backward tilt angles β of the vehicle body through rotation vector calculation and vehicle attitude matrix calculation;
[0007] Furthermore, the motor control module adopts a DC brushless controller PMW and a FOC motor controller;
[0008] Furthermore, the gyroscope and vehicle operating condition attitude sensing module are built into the motor control module;
[0009] Furthermore, the gyroscope and vehicle condition attitude sensing module are located outside the motor control module and connected by wires. The gyroscope and vehicle condition attitude sensing module can be installed on the vehicle body.
[0010] Furthermore, the gyroscope and vehicle operating condition attitude sensing module are located outside the motor control module and are connected wirelessly.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] This invention employs a gyroscope, balancing cost and sensing accuracy to improve the applicability of electric bicycles. It utilizes quaternion algorithms, rotation vector calculations, and attitude matrix calculations to acquire the longitudinal forward and backward tilt angles β of the vehicle faster and with lower errors. This enables a torque-type control mode for the electronic system, avoiding shortcomings such as insufficient power when climbing hills or bridges, and linear constant torque controlled solely by a Hall effect throttle. This improves the riding experience of electric bicycles, addresses the need for reasonable power distribution under different operating conditions, and further enhances the rider's timely response to power effects, resulting in a superior riding experience.

[0019] Example 1
[0020] This utility model provides an uphill power control system for an electric bicycle, including a frame. The frame is characterized by having a Hall effect throttle 1, a gyroscope 2, a Hall effect throttle sensing module 3, a vehicle working condition attitude sensing module 4, a motor control module 5, and a DC brushless permanent magnet motor 6. The Hall effect throttle 1 is connected to the Hall effect throttle sensing module 3, the gyroscope 2 is connected to the vehicle working condition attitude sensing module 4, and both the Hall effect throttle sensing module 3 and the vehicle working condition attitude sensing module 4 are connected to the motor control module 5. The motor control module 5 controls the operation of the DC brushless permanent magnet motor 6.
[0021] Furthermore, the Hall effect throttle sensing module 3 senses the rotation angle of the Hall effect throttle 1 as the rotation angle α;
[0022] Furthermore, the vehicle's attitude sensing uses a quaternion algorithm to obtain the longitudinal forward and backward tilt angles β of the vehicle body;
[0023] Furthermore, the vehicle's attitude sensing obtains the longitudinal forward and backward tilt angles β of the vehicle body through rotation vector calculation and vehicle attitude matrix calculation;
[0024] Furthermore, the motor control module 5 adopts a DC brushless controller PMW and a FOC motor controller;
[0025] Furthermore, the gyroscope 2 and the vehicle operating condition attitude sensing module 4 are built into the motor control module 5;
[0026] Furthermore, the gyroscope 2 and the vehicle condition attitude sensing module 4 are located outside the motor control module 5 and are connected by wires. The gyroscope 2 and the vehicle condition attitude sensing module 4 can be installed on the vehicle body.
[0027] Furthermore, the gyroscope 2 and the vehicle operating condition attitude sensing module 4 are located outside the motor control module 5 and are connected wirelessly.
[0028] Example 2
[0029] During use, the Hall effect throttle sensing module 3 obtains the rotation angle α of the Hall effect throttle 1, and the vehicle working condition attitude sensing module 4 obtains the longitudinal forward and backward tilt angles β of the vehicle body through the gyroscope 2. When the vehicle body moves horizontally forward, the overall vehicle direction takes a zero value. When the vehicle body is going downhill and the front of the vehicle is down, the signal from the vehicle working condition attitude sensing module 4 is obtained. When the vehicle body is tilted forward longitudinally, the tilt angle β takes a negative value. When the vehicle body is going uphill and the front of the vehicle is up, the signal from the vehicle working condition attitude sensing module 4 is obtained. When the vehicle body is tilted backward longitudinally, the tilt angle β takes a positive value.
[0030] If the rotation angle α is equal to 0°, the electric drive of the motor control module 5 and the gyroscope 2 will stop outputting power.
[0031] If the rotation angle α is greater than 0° and the tilt angle β is less than 0°, it indicates that the vehicle body is on a flat road with no slope or downhill. Then, the DC brushless controller PMW and FOC motor controller of the motor control module 5 control the torque output of the DC brushless permanent magnet motor 6 according to the size of the rotation angle α of the Hall throttle 1.
[0032] If the rotation angle α is greater than 0° and the tilt angle β is greater than 0°, the uphill mode is entered. The DC brushless controller PMW and FOC motor controller of the motor control module 5 increase the torque output of the DC brushless permanent magnet motor 6 according to the size of the rotation angle α and the tilt angle β of the Hall throttle 1, so that the vehicle body increases the power output, which is conducive to the vehicle climbing uphill and bridge smoothly and powerfully under the load.
[0033] Based on the actual operation of the vehicle, when the vehicle body tilt angle β is greater than 3°, the gyroscope 2 outputs a power response, which significantly increases the torque of the vehicle body.
[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. The various components mentioned in this utility model are common technologies in the existing field. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
