DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0020] The following specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings are merely exemplary descriptions of the technical solutions.

[0021] Orientation terms, such as up, down, left, right, front, rear, front side, back side, top, and bottom, which are or may be mentioned in this description, are defined with respect to the structures shown in the accompanying drawing, and are relative concepts, and therefore may correspondingly vary depending on different positions and different usage states. Therefore, these or other orientation terms should not be construed as restrictive terms as well. Moreover, the terms such as "first" "second", "third" or similar expressions are only used for description and distinction purposes, and should not be construed as indicating or implying the relative importance of corresponding members.

[0022] Reference is made to FIG. 1, which shows a schematic flowchart of a steering control method for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the invention. The steering control method of the invention is used to compensate for the steering capability of front wheels when the steering capability of the front wheels fails, so as to ensure the steering safety of the vehicle. The steering control method comprises: monitoring a steering capability state of front wheels of the vehicle; if the steering capability of the front wheels of the vehicle fails, selecting a preset vehicle speed threshold according to the failure degree of the steering capability of the front wheels of the vehicle; and determining additional steering used to compensate for front wheel steering by comparing a current vehicle speed and the vehicle speed threshold, the additional steering comprises one or more of additional rear wheel steering, additional roll steering by adjusting a vehicle roll angle, and vector torque steering by adjusting longitudinal forces for the wheels.

[0023] Most traditional vehicles only use front wheel steering during steering. That is, a steering angle of the front wheels is controlled by means of a steering wheel to achieve steering during steering. When the steering wheel is rotated to adjust the steering angle of the wheels, rear wheels are not rotated. However, at present, many vehicles can perform front wheel steering and rear wheel steering simultaneously. When a driver rotates a steering wheel, required steering angles are allocated for the front wheels and rear wheels according to a current heading angle and a target heading angle of the vehicle, thereby achieving accurate steering. In this way, part of the steering needs of the front wheels can be met to a certain extent by means of the rear wheels.

[0024] It should be noted that the additional rear wheel steering described in the invention is different from the above-mentioned rear wheel steering. In a vehicle whose front wheels and rear wheels can be steered, both the front wheels and the rear wheels are usually rotated at a certain angle during steering to achieve overall steering. However, the additional rear wheel steering in the invention is additional rear wheel steering or an additional rear wheel steering angle when the steering capability of the front wheels is partially or entirely out of control. That is to say, in this case, first, during vehicle steering, both the front wheels and the rear wheels are typically rotated at a certain steering angle. However, since the steering capability of the front wheels is partially or entirely out of control, this steering control method enables the rear wheels to further rotate at an additional steering angle so as to compensate for the loss of the steering capability of the front wheels. This additional rear wheel steering behavior is defined as "additional rear wheel steering" in the invention.

[0025] Similarly, a concept of "additional roll steering" in the invention is also different from a general concept of "roll steering". Generally, the term "roll steering" refers to rotations of front steering wheels around a kingpin and rotations of rear wheels around an axis perpendicular to the ground, which are caused by the rolling of a cabin under the action of a lateral force during vehicle steering, that is, changes in wheel steering angles. This type of roll steering usually occurs due to a movement of a suspension during vehicle steering. However, in the invention, the term "additional roll steering" refers to steering in which when the steering capability of the front wheels is partially or entirely out of control, a roll angle of a vehicle body is increased by adjusting an active suspension, thereby increasing yaw moment of the vehicle, which is equivalent to increase the degree of general roll steering, such that the rolling degree of the vehicle body is increased, and the steering capability of the vehicle is compensated by increasing the roll. Considering the stability and safety of the vehicle during turning, "additional roll steering" is generally implemented when the vehicle speed is lower.

[0026] A concept of "vector torque steering" in the invention refers to vehicle steering achieved by adjusting longitudinal force of a vehicle, such as driving force and braking force for each wheel. By adjusting the driving force and the braking force for each wheel, the additional yaw moment can be generated to facilitate the vehicle steering. Generally, the "vector torque steering" has a greater impact on wheel steering when the vehicle speed is higher.

[0027] According to an embodiment of the invention, the failure degree of the steering capability of the front wheels of the vehicle comprises partial failure of the steering capability (for example, a loss of half of the steering capability, which may also be a loss of 25%, 50%, or 75% of the steering capability in the case of some steering-by-wire systems) and complete failure of the steering capability. Reference is made to FIG. 2, which shows a graph of an actual steering angle of a steering wheel and a front wheel rack force at different rotation speeds during vehicle steering. As can be seen from FIG. 2, during vehicle steering, the actual steering angle of the steering wheel and the required front wheel rack force decrease as the vehicle speed increases. In FIG. 2, a maximum rack force value of a front wheel steering gear is 10 kN. For example, when the front wheels lose half of their steering capability, the rack force is 5 kN. In this case, if the vehicle speed is higher than 40 Kilometres Per Hour (Kph), the actual steering angle of the steering wheel does not decrease significantly, but the required front wheel rack force is less than 5 kN. That is to say, in this case, even if the front wheels lose half of their steering capability, the steering need can also be met only by using the front wheel steering. If the vehicle speed is less than or equal to 40 Kilometres Per Hour (Kph), the required rack force is greater than 5 kN. In this case, the rack force of the front wheel steering gear is not enough to maintain steering. Therefore, in this case, other steering methods need to be introduced to compensate for insufficient steering capability of the front wheels.

[0028] In an embodiment of the invention, the vehicle speed threshold is preset in a determination module of a steering control system, and is determined by means of an entire vehicle test on the premise of taking into account steering safety, the maximum steering angle of the steering wheel, and the front wheel rack force. The vehicle speed threshold comprises a first vehicle speed threshold associated with the partial failure of the steering capability. The first vehicle speed threshold is, for example, 40 Kilometres Per Hour (Kph), which corresponds to the case of 50% of failure of the steering capability in FIG. 2. Therefore, in this embodiment, when it is determined whether the vehicle speed is greater than the first vehicle speed threshold, if yes, the additional steering is not used, and the steering can be completely performed only by the front wheel steering of the vehicle (in a vehicle whose front wheels and rear wheels can both be steered, the steering can be performed by means of normal front wheel steering and rear wheel steering). When it is determined that the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the first vehicle speed threshold, the additional rear wheel steering and the additional roll steering are used as the additional steering, because the front wheel steering cannot meet the steering need of the entire vehicle in this case; moreover, the additional roll steering does not affect the safety and stability of vehicle steering when the vehicle speed is lower, and can stably provide an additional yaw moment. Therefore, the steering need of the entire vehicle in this case is met by means of all the front wheel steering (in a vehicle whose front wheels and rear wheels can both be steered, it is normal front wheel steering and rear wheel steering), the additional rear wheel steering and the additional roll steering.

[0029] In an embodiment of the invention, the vehicle threshold further comprises a second vehicle speed threshold associated with the complete failure of the steering capability. The second vehicle speed threshold is, for example, 60 Kilometres Per Hour (Kph). When the steering capability of the front wheels of the vehicle completely fails, the front wheels completely cannot be steered, and thus other additional steering must be provided in this case. In this embodiment, it is determined whether the current vehicle speed is greater than the second vehicle speed threshold. If yes, the vector torque steering and the additional rear wheel steering are used as the additional steering, because the vector torque steering can provide greater steering capability when the vehicle speed is higher. If it is determined that the current vehicle speed is less than or equal to the second vehicle speed threshold, the additional rear wheel steering and the additional roll steering are used as the additional steering, because the additional roll steering does not affect the safety and stability of the vehicle steering when the vehicle speed is lower, and can stably provide the additional yaw moment.

[0030] In an embodiment of the invention, the steering control method further comprises: when the failure degree of the steering capability is the partial failure of the steering capability or the complete failure of the steering capability, sending a deceleration instruction to a brake controller of the vehicle such that the brake controller controls a brake of the vehicle to perform a deceleration action.

[0031] Because the loss of steering capability of the front wheels of the vehicle is regarded as a relatively dangerous operating condition, which means that the steering-by-wire system already has a certain failure degree. Therefore, the vehicle should be braked while compensating for the steering capability of the vehicle as much as possible so that the driver can still steer the vehicle precisely. In addition, regardless of whether the failure degree of the steering capability of the vehicle is the partial failure or the complete failure, the vehicle should be braked to slowly reduce the speed while ensuring the safety and stability of the vehicle steering, and is finally stopped to ensure the safety of the driver.

[0032] In an embodiment of the invention, when the additional steering comprises the additional roll steering, a first control instruction is sent to a suspension controller, controlling an active suspension to increase a vehicle roll angle so as to provide additional yaw moment.

[0033] The additional roll steering is achieved by controlling the active suspension to increase the vehicle roll angle. When the additional steering comprises the additional roll steering, a control module of the steering control system sends the first control instruction to the suspension controller. This first control instruction enables the active suspension to increase the vehicle roll angle, especially a roll angle of the vehicle toward a steering center, and comprises a value of the roll angle that the active suspension should increase, such that a final superposition effect of the additional steering and the front wheel steering can meet the steering need of the driver.

[0034] In an embodiment of the invention, when the additional steering comprises the vector torque steering, a second control instruction is sent to a driving controller and / or a brake controller to adjust longitudinal force for front wheels and rear wheels of the vehicle so as to provide additional yaw moment.

[0035] The vector torque steering is achieved by adjusting the longitudinal force of the vehicle. The control module of the steering control system sends the second control instruction to one or both of the driving controller and the brake controller so as to adjust the driving force or the braking force for each wheel (or adjust only the driving force or the braking force for the front wheels in the case of a non-four-wheel drive vehicle), causing the vehicle to generate additional yaw moment, especially the yaw moment in the same direction as yaw angular velocity of the vehicle. The second control instruction comprises driving force value or braking force value that each wheel needs to adjust, such that the steering need of the driver can just be met by combining the effect of the vector torque steering with the effect of other steering.

[0036] Another aspect of the invention further provides a steering control system 100. Reference is made to FIG. 3, which shows a schematic module diagram of the steering control system 100 according to an embodiment of the invention. In this system, since a specific shape and an internal structure of each component are not the subject matter of the invention, for the ease of clarity and conciseness, all these components are schematically shown in the form of structural modules. The given structural diagram is an embodiment of the invention. The steering control system comprises: a monitoring module 1 configured to monitor a steering capability state of front wheels of a vehicle; a determination module 2 configured to obtain, when the steering capability of the front wheels of the vehicle fails, the failure degree of the steering capability of the front wheels of the vehicle from the monitoring module 1, select a preset vehicle speed threshold according to the failure degree, then compare a current vehicle speed and the vehicle speed threshold, and determine, according to a comparison of the current vehicle speed and the vehicle speed threshold, additional steering used to compensate for front wheel steering, the additional steering comprises one or more of additional rear wheel steering, additional roll steering by adjusting a vehicle roll angle, and vector torque steering by adjusting longitudinal forces for the wheels; and a control module 3 configured to send a corresponding control instruction to a steering actuation unit according to the additional steering determined by the determination module 2.

[0040] In an embodiment of the invention, when the failure degree of the steering capability is the partial failure of the steering capability or the complete failure of the steering capability, the control module 3 sends a deceleration instruction to a brake controller of the vehicle such that the brake controller controls a brake of the vehicle to perform a deceleration action.

[0041] In an embodiment of the invention, when the additional steering comprises the additional roll steering, the control module 3 sends a first control instruction to a suspension controller to control an active suspension to increase a vehicle roll angle so as to provide additional yaw moment.

[0042] In an embodiment of the invention, when the additional steering comprises the vector torque steering, the control module 3 sends a second control instruction to a driving controller and / or a brake controller, adjusting longitudinal force for front wheels and rear wheels of the vehicle so as to provide additional yaw moment.

[0043] In an embodiment of the invention, the first speed threshold is, for example, 40 Kilometres Per Hour (Kph), and the second speed threshold is, for example, 60 Kilometres Per Hour (Kph).
