Description

The method and brake system controller for being vented hydraulic vehicle brake system
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of methods that at least part for making hydraulic vehicle brake system is vented and braking system to control Device, wherein braking system includes at least one brake circuit, passes through the pump installation of at least one motor drive, brake circuit Pressure can selectively increase.
Background technique
For brake fluid system used in vehicle, particularly automobile, known its is correctly vented extremely important.Work as braking When pressure increase, the bubble remained in systems is compressed, and results in the elastic behavior of braking transmission channel, and is therefore resulted in Increased pedal operation stroke is considered interference by driver and also constitutes security risk in extreme circumstances.
For various reasons, do not always ensure that braking system is perfectly filled without gas, especially in vehicle production Braking system is for the first time during filling hydraulic fluid.Even if being less than safety critical threshold value, this also leads to improper Long pedal operation stroke and the discomfort for therefore causing driver, can lead to a period of time in workshop, this is logical for new car It should often be avoided by.
However, traditional exhaust process introduces hydraulic fluid by the pressure source from certain point in braking system, and open One or more exhaust valves at other points are opened, fluid flowing is then implemented, until exhaust valve no longer releases bubble, which is needed Relatively high cost, therefore, based on the considerations of time and cost, such exhaust process is in vehicle production as necessary step It suddenly is unpractical.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of method of the above-mentioned type and/or devices, are being not necessarily to additional equipment and time In the case where cost, ensure a kind of exhaust condition of better and/or more repeatable braking system, it is especially raw in vehicle During production, and after the maintenance work of braking system.
To achieve the goals above, the present invention proposes a kind of side that at least part to hydraulic vehicle brake system is vented Method, wherein braking system includes at least one brake circuit, and by the pump installation of at least one motor drive, which is returned The pressure on road can selectively increase.To be exhausted, increasing is generated in the partial brake system to be vented by pump installation The pressure added, and apply the increased pressure specified period, and this process is not turned on exhaust valve.
The activation of at least one pump will lead to the brake in concerned brake circuit and be applied to immediately utmostly.Once This thing happens, it is impossible to convey more hydraulic fluids, and therefore pump fights the output of closing to do work, and thus can tire out The high hydrostatic pressure of product.
Surprisingly, it has been found that, if carrying out being temporarily increased for this pressure when applying relatively high force, i.e., Make to be not turned on exhaust valve, being temporarily increased of the pressure also will eventually lead to gas and permanently remove from braking system, even After pressure increase terminates again.
It is in consideration the reason for this is that remaining gas is dissolved in brake fluid under the high pressure of application in braking system, and It is hereafter basic to keep dissolution or chemical bonding wherein and due to chemically or physically process.
Be further explained and be, after remaining gas is dissolved in brake fluid, by the other positions of braking system, spy The low pressure near master cylinder not being usually present, remaining gas are discharged again, also, are connected to usual existing expansion tank In the process, gas finally escapes into expansion tank and is discharged in atmosphere from expansion tank.
It is further possible that at a very high pressure, gas is easier to be discharged from small gap than hydraulic fluid, example Such as, the small gap discharge from brake-piston seal part, therefore also achieve " automatic " exhaust.
Finally, it could also be possible that residual gas caused by pressure passes through the diffusion process of brake piping material.
Above-mentioned any phenomenon is the final main cause for removing gas permanently actually, or whether there are also other phenomenons to send out The effect of waving, it is not immediately clear.
In short, a series of test display, is braked by according to the method for the present invention, can be realized the new car substantially reduced Interfering residue gas scale of construction in system.
In the present invention, it is particularly advantageous to being ready for use on during passing through the brake regulation of electronic stability control The pump (ESC pump) for increasing the pressure in braking system may be used as the pump installation of motor drive.Since the pump is present in In braking system, and it can be controlled selectively to apply pressure to braking system, therefore corresponding pressure may be implemented Increase without additional equipment cost.
In contrast, if it is necessary to couple additional external pump, other than fringe cost, will also be introduced in oriented system The risk of more gases.
(ESC is electronic stabilizing control system to the pump of ESC used in braking system, also referred to as[Daimler is public The registered trademark of department]) it is usually electric piston pump, the performance as needed for brake application, it is big which can generate the order of magnitude The about over-pressure of 200bar (high overpressure).The pressure used in the method is generally higher than 50bar, preferably Ground is greater than 100bar, particularly preferably is greater than 180 and arrives 200bar.What such pressure still allowed far below braking system always Pressure limit, the limit are about 300bar.The maximum pressure of application is lower than corresponding pressure limit under any circumstance.
Preferably, the period in static vehicle by increased pressure using at least 5 seconds and less than 2 minutes, preferably At least 10 seconds and be less than 1 minute, particularly preferably about 10 to 20 seconds.In test before, about 20 seconds high pressure phases are shown Remarkable result.It is continuous in the pumping procedure for the valve that confrontation is closed that the duration of high pressure phase depends on corresponding pump Load capacity.In order to avoid thermal overload, high pressure phase can also be implemented intermittently with multiple cooling stages.
Exhaust process preferably carries out in a part of braking system, by least one pump installation and passes through braking system The suitable positioning of the control valve of system, the part can be placed under increased pressure.If there is independently of one another by pressure institute Multiple brake circuits of effect, then it can simultaneously or successively be acted on by pressure.In general, master cylinder and expansion tank region cannot The pressure being increased is acted on, because described device is usually used as the reservoir of ESC pump at air inlet side (induction side).
Preferably, exhaust process according to the present invention can be after first time fills hydraulic fluid to braking system soon It carries out, is preferably carried out in the production process of the vehicle with braking system.However in principle, which can also make in maintenance It is carried out in workshop after dynamic system.
In order to activate the exhaust process in the vehicle for including electronic brake controller, which is connected to vehicle The CAN bus of inside and at least one electronic ESC pump can be controlled and multiple braking system control valves, exhaust process are preferred Ground relies on the peripheral control unit for being connected to brake monitor by CAN bus to cause.Thus start at least one ESC to pump and adjust The control valve of braking system is saved, to accumulate required increased pressure in the part for being able to maintain pressure of braking system.
Replace peripheral control unit or other than peripheral control unit, can also pass through built-in vehicle according to the method for the present invention Maintenance menu cause.Certainly, this can only occur in stationary vehicle, because brake is fully locked in pressure increase.
If pump is capable of providing pressure more higher than required increased pressure, which can pass through safe by-passing valve Limitation.Selectively, it can adjust or adjust using revolution speed (may the be zero) active control that actual pressure measurements pass through Seamless power.
In addition, in order to achieve the above objectives, the invention proposes the braking system controls for the vehicle with braking system Device processed, the braking system have dynamic Ride Control System and at least one flow of pressurized used in dynamic Driving control process Body pump, wherein the controller can control at least one pump, and can control the valve being provided in braking system, so as to extremely A few pump can apply pressure at least part of braking system.Thus the control designed for being vented braking system Device so that its period for activating at least one pump specified, and in the case where not opening exhaust valve braking system extremely The pressure of cumulative rises in few a part.
