Embodiment
The present invention be intended to solve automobile when gearshift because mechanical delay misses the problem of the best operation point of shifting gears, the shift control method that a kind of control executing mechanism is fulfiled free clearance ahead of schedule is proposed.Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and specific embodiment technological scheme of the present invention is done further to explain.
Technological scheme of the present invention is following:
The present invention proposes a kind of shift control method of electric control mechanical type automatic speed variator.Before this method is implemented, can obtain clutch actuating mechanism according to the inherent characteristic of vehicle and accomplish the required time T ime_off_free of free clearance, this time is present in this controlling method as a definite value.The step of this controlling method is:
Step 1, this controlling method detect the acceleration of the speed of a motor vehicle and vehicle in real time;
Step 2, calculate vehicle in real time and run to the required time of shifting points, and make comparisons with the time that clutch actuating mechanism is accomplished free clearance and needed from current working;
Step 3, when satisfying the clutch actuating mechanism operating conditions, in advance control executing mechanism is separated, and waits for that gearshift confirms;
Step 4, if gear confirm to be accomplished and is needed gearshift, then carry out follow-up gearshift flow process.
Calculating vehicle in the step 2 from the method that current working runs to the shifting points needed time is:
PredTime=(V
s–V
c)/a
In the formula: PredTime is that current working arrives the time that shift point needs;
V
sBe the gear shift speed of a motor vehicle;
V
cBe current vehicle speed;
A is the current vehicle acceleration.
Shifting points is confirmed through looking into the gearshift collection of illustrative plates, can is that shift-up point also can be to lower category a little.
The clutch actuating mechanism operating conditions is in the step 3: vehicle is less than or equal to the time T ime_off_free that actuator accomplishes free clearance according to the speed of a motor vehicle and the acceleration operation of current working to the required time PredTime of shifting points, and expects gear and require gear inequality.
Gear confirm to be accomplished and is needed gearshift in the step 4, and what refer to vehicle requires gear and current gear inequality, needs to shift gears; And follow-up gearshift flow process wherein refers to except clutch and accomplishes other processes of free clearance, comprises sliding separations that rub, thoroughly separates, moves back shelves, selects grade, the combination of engage a gear and clutch.
Following examples specifically are applied to this controlling method in the gear shift control logic of electric control mechanical type automatic speed variator.
Vehicle is in when operation, information such as the position of the electronic controller of electric control mechanical type automatic speed variator (back literary grace is with its english abbreviation form TCU) through acquisition gas pedals such as accelerator pedal position sensor, engine rotation speed sensor, clutch position sensor, choosing shelves actuator position transducer, gearshift actuator position transducers, engine speed, transmission output speed, gear level position.These information are the bases of carrying out the clutch gear-shift controlling method.
Shown in Figure 1 is the electric control mechanical type automatic speed variator shift process.Wherein each time period was respectively with the corresponding stage of its expression:
t
1~ t
2: accomplish free clearance; t
2~ t
3: the sliding separation that rubs; t
3~ t
4: thoroughly separate;
t
4~ t
5: move back shelves; t

10: accomplish free clearance.
Can find out that therefrom shift process comprises three parts: clutch separation, synchronizer operation and clutch combine, and these three parts comprise several stages again respectively, and each several part and stage thereof are followed successively by:
(1) separation of clutch: accomplish free clearance, slide to rub and separate and thoroughly separate;
(2) operation of synchronizer: move back shelves, choosing shelves and engage a gear;
(3) combination of clutch: eliminate free clearance, sliding combination and the completion free clearance of rubbing.
In traditional control method, speed changer moves with some gears, when needing new gear after the process logical operation of controller; After sending the gear request command; Clutch separates, treat that it thoroughly separates after, move back the operation of shelves, choosing shelves and engage a gear.After accomplishing the gear selection, thereby whole shift process is accomplished in the combination of carrying out clutch.
Shift control method of the present invention is dissolved in above-mentioned traditional control procedure, is made that clutch has been accomplished free clearance before the gear request.Clutch gear-shift control logic figure after the improvement is as shown in Figure 2, and concrete steps are:
(1) beginning;
(2) judge the expectation gear and require gear whether identical, if, then change step (3) over to, if not, then change step (4) over to;
(3) judge whether gearshift flag bit shif_start_flag equals 1, if, then change (11) over to, if not, then return step (1);
(4) calculate current working to the required operating time PredTime of shifting points, and change step (5) over to;
The method of calculating PredTime is: the difference of the current vehicle speed and the shifting points speed of a motor vehicle is divided by the current vehicle acceleration;
(5) judge whether current working is less than or equal to the time T ime_off_free that actuator accomplishes free clearance to the required operating time PredTime of shifting points, if change step (6) over to; If not, then return step (1);
(6) judge whether free clearance is accomplished, if then return step (1); If not, then change step (7) over to;
(7) apply the control electric current to motor, accomplish free clearance, change step (8) simultaneously over to solenoidoperated cluthes actuator;
(8) judge whether to accomplish gear and confirm, if then change step (9) over to; If not, then return step (1);
(9) judge current gear and require gear whether identical, if change step (1) over to; If not, then change step (10) over to
(10) gear opening flag shif_start_flag==1 is set, and changes step (11) over to;
(11) get into gear shift control.
The expectation gear is based on the gear that directly calculates of gearshift collection of illustrative plates, and requiring gear is that the expectation gear is confirmed and revised the definite object gear in back.
When the expectation gear equates with requiring gear, and the flag bit of shifting gears is set at 1 o'clock, then expects gear, requires gear and current gear three equal, and vehicle is in the state of cruising.
When the travelling state of vehicle changes, and will shift gears according to gearshift collection of illustrative plates vehicle the time, the expectation gear can change, and causes expecting gear and requires gear unequal.Therefore can expect gear and require gear whether to equate to judge whether vehicle will shift gears through judging, be i.e. step (2).
The concrete grammar that whether the gear affirmation is accomplished in the step (8) has multiple, as adopting timer, after after a while, the value of expectation gear is composed to requiring gear; Cross lowly and flame-out for fear of engine speed, the safe gear assignment that computation of table lookup is obtained is given and is required gear.The meaning that gear is confirmed is: when new gear demand is arranged, need the affirmation through timer time settings; Ignore or produced new gear request if gear shift has during this period of time taken place, then need reaffirm, gear shift opening flag position is not set.
Whether step (9) judge and to require gear identical with current gear, and whether in addition purpose is to judge under the current vehicle condition vehicle gearshift demand, if having then shift gears, if less than need not shift gears.
Variable declaration is following among this embodiment:
Shif_start_flag: gear shift opening flag position is 1 o'clock, shows to begin gear shift;
Time_off_free: clutch actuating mechanism is accomplished the used time of free clearance.
The electric control mechanical type automatic speed variator controlling method that the present invention proposes, after TCU powered on, each module of the control software that it is inner was started working.In the process of carrying out gear shift control; Control software has collected the state that rotating speed, throttle and gear signal can be judged speed changer according to the TCU acquisition system; And controlling method of the present invention is calculated in real time current vehicle condition and is run to the required time of shifting points, and the time ratio of accomplishing free clearance with clutch actuating mechanism, confirms the opportunity of clutch actuating mechanism control beginning; And the control motor begins pushing executing mechanism completion free clearance, entering wait state.This controlling method reaches and shortens the gearshift time through fulfiling the free clearance of clutch ahead of schedule, improves the purpose of speed of response.
