Wheel-End Torque Control for Smooth HEV Mode and Gear Shifts
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In multi-gear four-wheel-drive hybrid electric vehicles, frequent switching of drive modes leads to torque redistribution between front and rear traction motors, causing torque interruption and power loss, compromising vehicle stability and safety.
Innovation Solution
A vehicle torque control method that determines wheel-end torque changes based on driving parameters and correction coefficients, adjusting torque using opposite change trends and step sizes to prevent torque interruption during gear or drive mode changes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If drive mode switching is implemented in multi-gear four-wheel-drive HEVs, then adaptability and dynamic performance are improved, but torque interruption and power loss occur during switching
Solution Approach 1:
The control method performs preliminary torque adjustment before drive mode switching occurs. The torque adjustment step size is calculated in advance based on the difference between current and target wheel-end torques, ensuring that torque redistribution is prepared and executed smoothly without interruption or power loss during the switching transition.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic torque adjustment by calculating torque change amounts and step sizes that adapt to the specific switching scenario. The torque distribution between front and rear traction motors is dynamically adjusted during the drive mode transition, allowing the system to maintain optimal performance while switching between different drive modes.
2Adaptability or versatility
If gear changes are performed during driving, then speed range and adaptability are improved, but torque redistribution causes power loss
Solution Approach 1:
The control method calculates the required torque adjustment step size before gear change execution. By determining the torque change amount in advance based on the gear transition requirements, the system prepares the torque redistribution in advance, ensuring continuous power delivery and avoiding energy loss during the gear change process.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent maintains continuous torque delivery to the wheels during gear changes by smoothly redistributing torque between the front and rear traction motors. The torque adjustment is performed in a continuous manner rather than abruptly, ensuring that the useful action of propelling the vehicle continues without interruption or power loss throughout the gear change.
