[0005] Methods for analyzing and / or treating disturbance vibrations in a vehicle

[0006] State of the art

[0007] The invention relates to a method for analyzing and / or treating disturbances in a vehicle, in particular disturbances in a steering system of the vehicle. Furthermore, the invention relates to a computing unit for carrying out such a method and to a system comprising such a computing unit.

[0008] From the prior art, such as US 10,055,903 B2 and US 7,487,679 B2, methods for analyzing and / or treating disturbance vibrations in a vehicle are known, in which at least one detection signal correlated with the disturbance vibration is determined and evaluated by means of an in-vehicle sensor or a sensor installed in the vehicle.

[0009] Furthermore, various methods for compensating for disturbance vibrations in vehicle steering systems are known. In this case, the disturbance vibrations can be caused, for example, by wheel imbalances and manifest themselves as steering wheel torsional vibrations. To reduce these vibrations, a sensor signal from the vehicle, such as a torque signal from the steering column, an operating signal from a servo motor, and / or a wheel speed signal, is typically monitored. Based on this, an active counter-torque is determined and applied. (R. 416539)

[0010] - 2 -

[0011] Compensation for the disruptive vibrations is fed to the servo motor of the steering system. Such steering systems are used, for example, in the...

[0012] This is described in DE 10 2009 028 448 A1 and DE 10 2017 211 043 B3. However, a disadvantage in these cases is that the disturbances are merely compensated for without informing the driver of the vehicle about the problem, so the actual cause of the disturbances cannot be eliminated.

[0013] The object of the invention is, in particular, to provide a method for analyzing and / or treating disturbances in a vehicle, especially disturbances in a steering system of the vehicle, with improved efficiency. This object is achieved by the features of claims 1, 13 and 14, while advantageous embodiments and further developments of the invention can be found in the dependent claims.

[0014] Disclosure of the invention

[0015] The invention relates to a method, in particular a computer-implemented method, for analyzing and / or treating disturbances in a vehicle, especially disturbances in a steering system of the vehicle, wherein at least one detection signal correlated with the disturbance is determined and evaluated for the analysis and / or treatment of the disturbance. The present method is specifically aimed at the analysis and / or treatment of disturbances that may occur during operation of the vehicle or the steering system in the vehicle.

[0016] It is proposed that the detection signal be acquired using an external electronic device independent of the vehicle. This design can improve efficiency, particularly acquisition efficiency, maintenance efficiency, component efficiency, and / or cost efficiency. Furthermore, it can improve the detection, evaluation, and / or response to disturbances, thereby increasing both operational reliability and user comfort. This is further illustrated in R. 416539.

[0017] - 3 - in this context, a driver and / or owner of the vehicle is informed about corresponding disturbance vibrations and / or made aware of possible causes for the occurrence of disturbance vibrations, which may advantageously allow a cause of the disturbance vibrations to be identified and, if necessary, specifically eliminated.

[0018] A "vehicle-independent, external electronic device" is understood to mean, in particular, an electronic device that is designed separately from the vehicle and, in particular, is not integrated into and / or installed in the vehicle. Specifically, the external electronic device according to the present invention is therefore not part of the vehicle and preferably not coupled to a vehicle interface, particularly a physical one, for example, in the form of a diagnostic interface, for the purpose of acquiring the detection signal. Furthermore, a "disturbance vibration" is understood to mean, in particular, an undesirable vibration occurring in the vehicle and / or the steering system, which is based on a vehicle malfunction and, in particular, is not solely caused by or transmitted to the vehicle from the road surface.The disruptive vibration can be caused, for example, by a worn tie rod end, a flat tire, and / or a loose tire screw. However, the disruptive vibration is particularly preferably a vibration in a shimmy-critical frequency range and / or in a frequency range typical for steering wheel torsional vibrations, which is caused in particular by an imbalance and / or disturbance in at least one brake disc ("brake judder") and / or an imbalance and / or disturbance in at least one vehicle wheel ("shimmy").

[0019] Furthermore, a computing unit is provided, which is intended to carry out the procedure for analyzing and / or treating the disturbance vibrations. A "computing unit" is understood to be, in particular, an electrical and / or electronic unit that has an information input, information processing, and information output. Advantageously, the computing unit also has at least one processor, at least one operating memory, at least one input and / or output means, at least one operating program, at least one calculation routine, at least one evaluation routine, and / or at least one determination routine. In particular, R. 416539

[0020] - 4 - The processing unit is at least designed to determine the detection signal provided by the external electronic device and to evaluate it for analysis and / or treatment of the interference. Preferably, the processing unit is integrated into the external electronic device and / or into the vehicle, in particular a control unit of the vehicle, for example a central vehicle control unit or a control unit of the steering system, and / or into another external electronic device that is operatively connected to the external electronic device, for example in the form of a desktop computer, a notebook, a smartphone and / or a cloud computer. In the latter two cases, transmission of the detection signal to the vehicle or the other external electronic device can advantageously be wireless. In principle, the processing unit can also be distributed across several systems in this context.The term "intended" should be understood to mean specifically programmed, designed, and / or equipped. The fact that an object is intended for a specific function should be understood to mean, in particular, that the object fulfills and / or executes this specific function in at least one application and / or operating state.

[0021] Furthermore, it is proposed that the external electronic device comprises at least one motion and / or position sensor and that at least one sensor signal from the at least one motion and / or position sensor is used as a detection signal. Particularly preferably, sensor signals from at least one motion sensor and sensor signals from at least one position sensor are combined and evaluated together for the analysis and / or treatment of disturbance vibrations. This allows for the advantageous determination of a disturbance vibration and / or a motion state of the vehicle.

[0022] It is also advantageously proposed that an intelligent mobile device be used as the external electronic device. In this context, the external electronic device could be, for example, a notebook, a tablet, a smartphone, a smartwatch, and / or a comparable electronic device. A smartwatch, for instance, can be advantageously used to detect shimmy or steering wheel torsional vibrations. The Re- R. 416539

[0023] - 5 - The processing unit can preferably be integrated into another external electronic device paired with the smartwatch. For example, a smartphone can also be used to detect other vehicle vibrations. In this case, the processing unit can preferably be integrated directly into the corresponding external electronic device or the smartphone. This provides a particularly advantageous, simple, and user-friendly method for detecting the disturbance vibrations.

[0024] According to one embodiment, it is proposed that a disturbance parameter correlated with a principal oscillation frequency of the disturbance oscillation and a velocity parameter correlated with a motion state of the vehicle are determined from the detection signal. The disturbance parameter and the velocity parameter are combined into a signal pair for analysis and / or treatment of the disturbance oscillation and stored in an evaluation data set. The disturbance parameter thus represents, in particular, a dominant and / or characteristic oscillation frequency of the disturbance oscillation. The velocity parameter preferably represents a current vehicle speed and can, for example, correspond to a velocity vector of the vehicle. Preferably, the evaluation data set comprises a plurality of signal pairs consisting of the disturbance parameter and the velocity parameter.This allows, in particular, a beneficial evaluation of the disturbance vibration to be achieved and a correlation between disturbance and vehicle speed to be determined.

[0025] It is further proposed that the evaluation data set be temporarily stored in a buffer memory, particularly an electronic one. The buffer memory can be designed as a vector. In this case, the oldest signal pair can advantageously be removed when a new signal pair is added. Alternatively, the buffer memory can be designed as a matrix. In this case, a new signal pair can preferably be sorted into or arranged in the matrix depending on the corresponding velocity parameter. This can improve both the temporary storage and the evaluation of the evaluation data set. R. 416539

[0026] - 6 -

[0027] Furthermore, it is proposed that the evaluation dataset comprises a plurality of signal pairs consisting of a disturbance parameter and a velocity parameter, and that a correlation coefficient and / or a confidence value for the correlation between the disturbance parameter and the velocity parameter is determined by means of a correlation analysis based on the evaluation dataset. Preferably, several signal pairs of the evaluation dataset, and particularly preferably all signal pairs of the evaluation dataset, are considered in the correlation analysis. This allows, in particular, an effective evaluation to be achieved and an increase in the accuracy of the detection of disturbance oscillations.

[0028] Furthermore, it is proposed that the correlation coefficient and / or the confidence value be compared to a threshold value, whereby, if the correlation coefficient and / or the confidence value exceeds the threshold, a first status value for the occurrence of disturbance oscillations is set. In particular, the first status value comprises at least two status values, especially a normal value in which no disturbance oscillation can be detected and a disturbance value in which a disturbance oscillation can be detected. In this context, the first status value can, for example, be designed as a status variable and / or status indicator. If the correlation coefficient and / or the confidence value exceeds the threshold value, the first status value is consequently set to the disturbance value. This advantageously allows a first indicator for the occurrence of disturbance oscillations to be determined.

[0029] According to a further embodiment, it is proposed that a further disturbance parameter correlated with an amplitude of the main oscillation frequency of the disturbance oscillation is determined from the detection signal and compared with a further threshold value. If the further disturbance parameter exceeds the further threshold value, a second status parameter is set for the occurrence of disturbance oscillations. The further disturbance parameter thus represents, in particular, an amplitude of the dominant and / or characteristic oscillation frequency of the disturbance oscillation. In particular, the second status parameter comprises at least two status values, especially a normal value in which no disturbance oscillation can be detected, and a disturbance value in which a disturbance oscillation is detected.

[0030] - 7 -

[0031] The second status parameter can be configured as a status variable and / or status indicator. If the second disturbance parameter exceeds the threshold value, the second status parameter is set to the disturbance value. This allows for the advantageous determination of a second indicator for the occurrence of disturbances, thereby further increasing detection accuracy.

[0032] Particularly high operational reliability and / or user-friendliness can be achieved if a response is initiated based on a value of the first status variable and a value of the second status variable. As a response, a warning message can be generated, and at least one further action can be executed and / or suggested when the first and second status variables are set, particularly regarding the disturbance value. The warning message can contain at least information about a detected disturbance. In this case, a further action could, for example, be a push notification generated and / or a service appointment suggested. It is also conceivable to select the further action from a group of several potential actions based on a user setting and / or user selection.Furthermore, a warning message can be generated if only one of the status variables, in particular the first or second status variable, has been set, especially to the disturbance value. The warning message can contain information about the possible presence of a disturbance and / or that the situation is being further monitored and / or investigated. In addition, evaluation information can be generated, but not actively output, if neither the first nor the second status variable has been set. Preferably, the evaluation information passively signals that no disturbance is present and that the situation is being further monitored.

[0033] Preferably, the detection signal for the analysis and / or treatment of the disturbance vibration is further evaluated cyclically and / or at regular intervals, for example every 30 minutes or every 60 minutes. This allows disturbance vibrations to be detected early and, if necessary, eliminated. R. 416539

[0034] - 8 -

[0035] According to a particularly preferred embodiment, it is further proposed that a user interface be provided for analyzing the disturbance vibrations and / or for selecting individual measures to address them. Furthermore, the user interface can also provide information about possible causes of the disturbance vibrations. In this case, the external electronic device and / or the vehicle, for example by means of an on-board computer, and / or the other external electronic device can be provided for this purpose and advantageously include an interface unit. An "interface unit" is understood to mean, in particular, an electrical and / or electronic assembly that enables a user to access and / or interact with the user interface.In particular, the interface unit comprises an operating unit, which may, for example, be designed for gesture input and / or gesture control, voice input and / or voice control, and / or touch input and / or touch control, and preferably a display unit for displaying the user area. A "user area" shall be understood to mean, in particular, a work environment and / or a workspace, especially a virtual one, which is designed for managing, and advantageously at least for displaying and / or editing, analysis data correlated with the disturbance vibration and / or for setting and / or selecting measures for addressing the disturbance vibration. The measures for addressing the disturbance vibration may, for example, include displaying the nearest workshops and / or booking a workshop appointment.The user area can be advantageously part of an associated software program and / or application. This can achieve a particularly high level of user-friendliness.

[0036] The method for analyzing and / or treating the disturbance vibrations and the system are not limited to the application and embodiment described above. In particular, the method for analyzing and / or treating the disturbance vibrations and the system can be used to fulfill a functionality described herein, as defined in R. 416539.

[0039] Drawings

[0040] Further advantages become apparent from the following description of the drawings. The drawings illustrate an embodiment of the invention.

[0041] They show:

[0042] Fig. 1 shows a system comprising a vehicle, an external electronic device and an exemplary computing unit integrated into the external electronic device in a simplified representation.

[0043] Fig. 2 shows an exemplary flowchart with the main process steps of a method for analyzing and / or treating disturbance vibrations in the vehicle and

[0044] Fig. 3 shows a detailed view of a user area provided by means of the external electronic device.

[0045] Description of the exemplary embodiment

[0046] Figure 1 shows a simplified representation of a system 24 comprising a vehicle 10, designed as a motor vehicle by way of example. In this case, the vehicle 10 is designed as a passenger car. In principle, however, a vehicle could also be designed as a commercial vehicle, an aircraft, and / or a watercraft. The vehicle 10 includes a steering system 12, which is known per se. The steering system 12 is intended to provide steering functionality and / or lateral guidance of the vehicle 10. In this case, the steering system 12 can, for example, be designed as a conventional, mechanical steering system or as a steer-by-wire steering system.

[0047] Furthermore, the system 24 includes an external electronic device 14. The external electronic device 14 is designed as an electronic device independent of the vehicle 10. The external electronic device 14 is therefore not R. 416539

[0048] - 10 -

[0049] Part of the vehicle 10 and, in this case, not connectable to a physical vehicle interface, for example, in the form of a diagnostic interface. The external electronic device 14 is designed as an intelligent mobile device, in this case, for example, a smartphone. In principle, however, the external electronic device 14 could also be designed as a notebook, a tablet, a smartwatch, and / or a comparable electronic device. Furthermore, the external electronic device 14 includes at least one motion and / or position sensor 16. In this case, the electronic device 14 includes, for example, several motion and position sensors (not explicitly shown), such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, and GPS sensors. In addition, the external electronic device 14 includes a buffer memory 18.The buffer memory 18 serves for the temporary storage of data and can, for example, be part of the working memory of the external electronic device 14. In principle, however, an external electronic device without a buffer memory could also be used.

[0050] Furthermore, system 24 includes a processing unit 22. In this case, the processing unit 22 is integrated into the external electronic device 14. However, the processing unit 22 could also be integrated into the vehicle 10 and / or into another external electronic device that is operatively connected to the external electronic device 14. The processing unit 22 is electronic. The processing unit 22 comprises at least one processor (not shown), for example, in the form of a microprocessor, and at least one operating memory (not shown). In addition, the processing unit 22 includes at least one operating program stored in the operating memory with at least one calculation routine, at least one evaluation routine, and at least one determination routine.

[0051] During ferry operation of vehicle 10, disturbance vibrations may occur. These disturbance vibrations can occur, for example, in a critical speed range between 80 km / h and 140 km / h and may be caused by an imbalance or defect in a brake disc (“brake judder”) and / or an imbalance or defect in one of the vehicle wheels (“shimmy”). Such disturbance vibrations are normally noticeable in conventional steering systems in the form of steering wheel torsional vibrations. (See Steer-by-R. 416539.)

[0052] - 11 -

[0053] Wire steering systems can experience such disturbances, at least leading to corresponding chassis vibrations that can be perceived by an occupant, even if these do not manifest as vibrations at a steering wheel or steering handle due to a lack of mechanical coupling.

[0054] In the present case, the computing unit 22 is designed to perform a procedure for analyzing and / or treating such disturbances in the vehicle 10, and in particular disturbances in the steering system 12 of the vehicle 10, and for this purpose includes a computer program with corresponding program code. Alternatively, a computing unit of the vehicle 10 or another external electronic device, such as a laptop or a cloud computer, can also be used to execute the procedure. In principle, a computing unit could also be distributed across several systems in this context.

[0055] According to the invention, at least one detection signal correlated with the disturbance vibration is acquired by means of the external electronic device 14, more precisely by means of the motion and / or position sensor 18, and transmitted to the processing unit 22. In this case, the detection signal thus corresponds to a sensor signal from the at least one motion and / or position sensor 18. For the analysis and / or treatment of the disturbance vibration, the processing unit 22 can then evaluate the detection signal and, depending on the evaluation result, initiate a reaction, for example, generate a warning and / or notification message. A corresponding evaluation algorithm is described below with reference to Figure 2. Furthermore, the detection signal can be fed to an analysis function for analyzing the disturbance vibration and for processing the evaluation data.In principle, it is also conceivable to transmit the detection signal to vehicle 10 and, for example, to take it into account when determining a compensation signal to compensate for the disturbance oscillation.

[0056] Figure 2 shows an exemplary flowchart with the main process steps of the method for analyzing and / or treating disturbance vibrations. R. 416539

[0057] - 12 -

[0058] In process step 30, the data from the external electronic device is processed.

[0059] 14 provided detection signals were determined.

[0060] In process step 32, the detection signal is processed. Here, a disturbance parameter correlated with a main oscillation frequency of the disturbance oscillation is determined from the detection signal. This disturbance parameter represents a dominant and / or characteristic oscillation frequency of the disturbance oscillation. Furthermore, another disturbance parameter correlated with an amplitude of the main oscillation frequency of the disturbance oscillation can be determined from the detection signal. This further disturbance parameter thus represents an amplitude of the dominant and / or characteristic oscillation frequency of the disturbance oscillation. In addition, a velocity parameter correlated with a motion state of the vehicle 10 can be determined from the detection signal. The velocity parameter represents the current vehicle speed and can, for example, correspond to a velocity vector of the vehicle 10.

[0061] In process step 34, a first indicator for the occurrence of disturbance oscillations is determined. For this purpose, the disturbance parameter and the velocity parameter are first combined into a signal pair and stored in a common evaluation data set. The evaluation data set preferably comprises a plurality of signal pairs consisting of the disturbance parameter and the velocity parameter. The evaluation data set is preferably temporarily stored in an electronic buffer memory. The buffer memory can, for example, be designed as a vector. In this case, an oldest signal pair can be removed when a new signal pair is added. Alternatively, the buffer memory can be designed as a matrix. In this case, a new signal pair can be sorted into or arranged in the matrix depending on the corresponding velocity parameter.The evaluation dataset is then analyzed using correlation analysis, advantageously considering all signal pairs within the dataset. This correlation analysis can determine a correlation coefficient and / or a confidence value for the correlation between the disturbance parameter and the velocity parameter, which can then be compared to a threshold value. R. 416539.

[0062] - 13 -

[0063] If the correlation coefficient and / or the confidence value exceeds the threshold, an initial status parameter for the occurrence of disturbance oscillations is set to a disturbance value.

[0064] In process step 36, a second indicator for the occurrence of disturbance oscillations is determined. For this purpose, the additional disturbance parameter is compared with a further threshold value. If the additional disturbance parameter exceeds the further threshold value, a second status parameter for the occurrence of disturbance oscillations is set to a disturbance value.

[0065] In process step 38, a reaction is initiated depending on an evaluation result. Here, the type of reaction is determined based on a value of the first status variable and a value of the second status variable. For example, a warning message can be generated and at least one further action can be executed and / or suggested if both the first and second status variables are set. The warning message can contain at least information about a detected disturbance. As a further action, a push notification can be generated and / or a workshop appointment suggested. Furthermore, a notification message can be generated if only one of the status variables, in particular the first or the second status variable, is set.The alert message can contain information about the possible presence of a disturbance and / or information indicating that the situation requires further monitoring and / or investigation. Furthermore, an evaluation message can be generated, but not actively displayed, if neither the first nor the second status parameter has been set. Preferably, in this case, the evaluation message passively signals that no disturbance is present and that the situation is being monitored.

[0066] The previously described procedure can then be repeated. In this case, the detection signal for the analysis and / or treatment of the disturbance oscillation can, for example, be determined and evaluated cyclically and / or at regular time intervals, e.g., every 10 minutes. R. 416539

[0067] - 14 -

[0068] The flowchart in Figure 2 is intended only as an example of a procedure for analyzing and / or treating disturbances in vehicle 10. In particular, individual process steps can vary, or additional process steps can be added. In this context, for example, the second indicator for the occurrence of disturbances could be determined first, followed by the first indicator. Furthermore, it is conceivable to determine only one of the indicators for the occurrence of disturbances and then initiate a response based on a value of either the first or the second status variable.

[0069] Finally, Figure 3 shows a detailed representation of a user area 20 provided by means of the external electronic device 14.

[0070] In this case, the external electronic device 14 is intended for the analysis of interference vibrations by a user and / or for the selection of individual measures for dealing with the interference vibrations. For this purpose, the external electronic device 14 includes an interface unit 40, which is intended to provide a corresponding user area 20. The interface unit 40 comprises an operating unit 42 and a display unit 44. In this case, the operating unit 42 is integrated with the display unit 44. The operating unit 42 is designed for touch input and / or touch control and, in this case, is specifically designed as a touchscreen. The display unit 44 is intended to display the user area 20 in at least one operating state.User area 20 is part of an associated software program and / or application and, in this case, serves to manage, in particular to display and / or edit, analysis data correlated with the disturbance vibration and / or to set and / or select measures for dealing with the disturbance vibration. In this context, for example, the previously generated evaluation data and / or analysis data can be displayed using display unit 44, for example in the form of a diagram and / or a graph. The measures for dealing with the disturbance vibration can, for example, include displaying the nearest workshops and / or booking a workshop visit. R. 416539.
