All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" or "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and it can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0036] Please see Figures 1 to 10 A control device for an integrated auxiliary wheel drive two-wheel self-balancing electric vehicle, comprising:
[0037] The system includes a hub motor that drives the electric vehicle, a steering motor that keeps the electric vehicle balanced, and an attitude sensor that monitors the attitude of the electric vehicle. The power supply is connected to the hub motor through the hub drive circuit and to the steering motor through the steering drive circuit. The controller is connected to the attitude sensor, the power supply, the hub drive circuit, and the steering drive circuit.
[0038] In this embodiment, the rear drive (i.e., the hub motor is installed on the rear wheel of the electric vehicle) is used as an example for detailed explanation. In order to realize the adaptive balance function of the electric vehicle, various balance algorithm software can be pre-installed in the controller, such as the invention patent algorithm mentioned in the background technology. Since the balance algorithm is not the innovation of this application, it will not be described in detail here.
[0039] To achieve smooth operation of electric vehicles during start-up and stopping, and to prevent falls, the following additional technical features are adopted based on the aforementioned existing technology:
[0040] An auxiliary motor is installed on one or both sides of the electric vehicle, and the auxiliary motor is connected to the auxiliary wheel through a transmission rod; the power supply includes a high-voltage power module that provides high-voltage power to the hub motor, steering motor and auxiliary motor, and a low-voltage power module that provides low-voltage power to the attitude sensor, controller and communication circuit; the low-voltage power module is connected to the auxiliary motor through an auxiliary drive circuit; the controller interacts with the remote controller through a communication circuit.
[0041] Please see Figure 10 Auxiliary motors are installed on both sides of the electric vehicle frame, namely a left auxiliary motor 3 and a right auxiliary motor. The left auxiliary motor 3 is connected to the left auxiliary wheel 2 through the left transmission rod 4. Specifically, the motor shaft of the left auxiliary motor 3 is connected to the upper shaft of the left transmission rod 4 through the first upper bearing, and the lower end of the left transmission rod 4 is connected to the left auxiliary wheel 2 through the first lower bearing. The motor shaft of the right auxiliary motor is connected to the upper shaft of the right transmission rod through the second upper bearing, and the lower end of the right transmission rod is connected to the right auxiliary wheel 1 through the second lower bearing.
[0042] Working principle: When the electric vehicle starts, the remote control sends a start command to the controller. After receiving the start command, the controller drives the hub motor to rotate through the hub drive circuit. At the same time, the controller drives the steering motor through the steering drive circuit. Simultaneously, the controller drives the left auxiliary motor 3 and the right auxiliary motor to rotate through the auxiliary drive circuit. The left auxiliary motor 3 lifts the left auxiliary wheel 2 through the left transmission rod 4, and the right auxiliary motor lifts the right auxiliary wheel 1 through the right transmission rod. When the left auxiliary wheel 2 and the right auxiliary wheel 1 are raised to the designated position, the controller sends a stop command to the auxiliary drive circuit.
[0043] When the electric vehicle transitions from a driving posture to a deceleration stop, a deceleration stop command is issued to the controller via the remote control. Upon receiving the command, the controller drives the wheel hub motors to gradually decelerate via the wheel hub drive circuit. Simultaneously, the controller drives the steering motor via the steering drive circuit. At the same time, the controller drives the left auxiliary motor 3 and the right auxiliary motor via the auxiliary drive circuit. The left auxiliary motor 3 lowers the left auxiliary wheel 2 via the left transmission rod 4, and the right auxiliary motor lowers the right auxiliary wheel 1 via the right transmission rod. Once the left auxiliary wheel 2 and the right auxiliary wheel 1 have reached their designated positions, the controller issues a stop command to the auxiliary drive circuit, as well as to the steering drive circuit and the wheel hub drive circuit.
