Below, the thrust to the input lever 6 carried out by master cylinder pressure control mechanism 5 and master cylinder pressure control portion 8 Amplification illustrate.In embodiment 1, master cylinder pressure control portion 8 by drive motor 50 and to input lever 6 The corresponding displacement of main piston 2b of displacement, i.e. the relative shift Δ x of input lever 6 and main piston 2b is controlled.
Master cylinder pressure control mechanism 5 and master cylinder pressure control portion 8 have desired deceleration operational part (not shown), meter Calculate the desired deceleration that the displacement of the input lever 6 produced by the brake operating by driver determines.Further, with this target Deceleration makes main piston 2b displacement accordingly.Thus, the thrust thrust plus main piston 2b of input lever 6 is utilized, to main hydraulic pressure Room 2d pressurizes, and adjusts master cylinder pressure Pmc.That is, the thrust of input lever 6 is amplified.Amplification ratio (hereinafter referred to as assist rate α) utilizes main Input lever 6 and the sectional area with axis vertical direction of main piston 2b in hydraulic pressure chamber 2d (below, are called compression area AIR and APP) ratio etc., determine in the following manner.
The hydraulic pressure carrying out master cylinder pressure Pmc with the pressure balance relation shown in following formula (1) adjusts.
Pmc=(FIR+K × Δ x)/AIR=(FPP-K × Δ x)/APP ... (1)
Wherein, each key element in pressure balance type (1) is as described below.
The hydraulic pressure (master cylinder pressure) of Pmc: main hydraulic pressure chamber 2d
The thrust of FIR: input lever 6
The thrust (augmented thrust) of FPP: main piston 2b
The compression area of AIR: input lever 6
APP: the compression area of main piston 2b
K: the spring constant of spring 6d, 6e
Δ x: input lever 6 and the relative shift of main piston 2b
It addition, in embodiment 1, the compression area AIR of input lever 6 is set smaller than the compression area of main piston 2b APP。
Herein, the displacement (hereinafter referred to as input lever stroke) of input lever 6 is set to Xi, by the displacement of main piston 2b (hereinafter referred to as piston stroke) is set to Xb, and relative shift Δ x is defined as Δ x=Xb-Xi.Therefore, relative shift Δ x It is 0 in the neutral position of relative movement, the side of advance relative to input lever 6 at main piston 2b (to the stroke of x-axis positive direction side) Xiang Weizheng, is negative at its rightabout.It addition, ignore the resistance to sliding of sealing member in pressure balance type (1).Main piston 2b's Thrust FPP can estimate according to the current value driving motor 50.
On the other hand, it is possible to represent assist rate α with following formula (2).
α=Pmc × (APP+AIR)/FIR ... (2)
Therefore, if the Pmc of above-mentioned formula (1) is substituted into formula (2), then assist rate α becomes following formula (3).
α=(1+K × Δ x/FIR) × (AIR+APP)/AIR ... (3)
In Power assisted control, to driving motor 50 to be controlled, and piston stroke Xb is adjusted, to obtain target Master cylinder pressure characteristic (hereinafter referred to as target master cylinder pressure characteristic)." master cylinder pressure characteristic " refers to master cylinder pressure herein The power Pmc variation characteristic relative to input lever stroke Xi.Can be corresponding to representing the piston stroke relative to input lever stroke Xi The stroke characteristic of Xb and above-mentioned target master cylinder pressure characteristic, and obtain representing the relative displacement relative to input lever stroke Xi The displacement of targets amount estimated performance of the change of amount Δ x.Performance data, meter is calculated based on the displacement of targets amount obtained by checking Calculate the desired value (hereinafter referred to as target relative shift Δ x*) of relative shift Δ x.
That is, displacement of targets amount calculates the change of the personality presentation target relative shift Δ x* relative to input lever stroke Xi Characteristic, determines a target relative shift Δ x* accordingly with input lever stroke Xi.If it is defeated with detect to realize The mode entering the target relative shift Δ x* that throw of lever Xi determines accordingly controls to drive the rotation (main piston of motor 50 The displacement Xb of 2b), then in master cylinder 2, produce the master cylinder pressure of the size corresponding with target relative shift Δ x* Pmc。
Herein, it is possible to detected input lever stroke Xi as described above by brake operation amount test section 7, detect based on the anglec of rotation The signal of sensor 50a, calculates piston stroke Xb, is obtained by above-mentioned the differing from of displacement detecting (calculating) relatively Displacement Δ x.In Power assisted control, specifically, calculate based on the above-mentioned relative shift Δ x detected and displacement of targets amount Characteristic, target setting relative shift Δ x*, driving motor 50 is controlled (feedback control) is so that above-mentioned detecting (is counted Calculate) relative shift Δ x consistent with target relative shift Δ x*.Alternatively, it is also possible to additionally arrange piston stroke Xb Carry out the stroke sensor detected.
In embodiment 1, owing to not using pedaling force sensor to carry out Power assisted control, it is possible to correspondingly reduce Cost.Additionally, by driving motor 50 is controlled as making relative shift Δ x become arbitrary setting, and can obtain The assist rate of assist rate or less bigger compared with the assist rate determined by compression area ratio (AIR+APP)/AIR, it is possible to real Now brake force based on desired assist rate.
Constant Power assisted control makes input lever 6 and main piston 2b displacement integratedly, i.e. control to be main work by driving motor 50 Plug 2b is always positioned at above-mentioned neutral position relative to input lever 6, carries out displacement with relative shift Δ x=0.
In the case of making main piston 2b generation stroke make to become Δ x=0 as described above, by above-mentioned formula (3), help Force rate α uniquely determines as α=(AIR+APP)/AIR.Therefore, it is possible to by based on required assist rate set AIR and APP, controls main piston 2b as making piston stroke Xb equal with input lever stroke Xi, thus obtains constant (above-mentioned institute all the time Need) assist rate.
Target master cylinder pressure characteristic in constant Power assisted control, is accompanied by the advance of input lever 6 (to x-axis positive direction The displacement of side) the master cylinder pressure Pmc that produces is with 2 rank curves, 3 rank curves or is combined its above height on these curves Rank curve etc. and multistage curve (following, these curves the are referred to as multistage curve) shape that obtains increases.Additionally, constant power-assisted control Fixture has main piston 2b to produce the stroke characteristic of stroke with the amount (Xb=Xi) identical with input lever stroke Xi.Based on the trip In the displacement of targets amount estimated performance that characteristic and above-mentioned target master cylinder pressure characteristic obtain, relative to all of input lever stroke Xi target, relative shift Δ x* becomes 0.
In contrast, target relative shift Δ x* is set as positive setting by the variable control of power-assisted, will drive electronic Machine 50 controls as making relative shift Δ x become this setting.Thus, along with input lever 6 is to the side increasing master cylinder pressure Pmc March forward movement, compared with input lever stroke Xi, make piston stroke Xb of main piston 2b become big.By above-mentioned formula (3), assist rate α becomes (1+K × Δ x/FIR) size again.That is, be equivalent to make main piston 2b be multiplied by proportional gain (1+K with input lever stroke Xi × Δ x/FIR) and the amount that obtains produces stroke.As it has been described above, variable with Δ x assist rate α accordingly, master cylinder Stress control machine Structure 5 works as power-assisted source, it is possible to produce according to driver requested brake force the significantly reduction that realizes pedal force.
I.e., it is considered to controlling aspect, preferably aforementioned proportion gain (1+K × Δ x/FIR) is 1, but such as due to tightly In the case of anxious braking waits and requires more than the brake force of the brake operation amount of driver, it is possible to aforementioned proportion gain is become temporarily The more value more than 1.
Thus, i.e. use the brake operation amount of equal quantities, compared with (aforementioned proportion gain is the situation of 1) time usual, also Master cylinder pressure Pmc can be improved, thus it is possible to produce bigger brake force.Herein, the judgement of brake hard such as can be used Whether the time rate of change of the signal of brake operation amount test section 7 exceedes setting and judges.
As it has been described above, the variable control of power-assisted is the method controlling in the following manner to drive motor 50, it may be assumed that relative to input The advance of bar 6 makes the advance of main piston 2b bigger, main piston 2b relative to the relative shift Δ x of input lever 6 along with input The advance of bar 6 becomes big, correspondingly makes the increase of the master cylinder pressure Pmc of advance along with input lever 6 and constant power-assisted Control is compared bigger.
Target master cylinder pressure characteristic in control variable for power-assisted, the advance along with input lever 6 is (square to x-axis To the displacement of side) and the increase of master cylinder pressure Pmc that produces (increase with multistage curve-like more greatly compared with constant Power assisted control Master cylinder pressure characteristic more precipitous).Additionally, the variable control of power-assisted has the piston row of the increase relative to input lever stroke Xi The stroke characteristic that the increments of journey Xb is bigger than 1.At the mesh obtained based on the trip characteristic and above-mentioned target master cylinder pressure characteristic In marker displacement amount estimated performance, increase target relative shift Δ x* accordingly with input lever stroke Xi and increase with the ratio of regulation Add.
Additionally, as the variable control of power-assisted, except above-mentioned control (driving motor 50 is controlled for along with input lever 6 to The direction increasing master cylinder pressure Pmc is moved, and compared with input lever stroke Xi, piston stroke Xb is bigger) outside, also will drive electricity Motivation 50 controls, along with input lever 6 moves to the direction increasing master cylinder pressure Pmc, compared with input lever stroke Xi, and piston Stroke Xb is less.Thereby, it is possible to when regeneration coordination controls, the increase with regenerative braking torque reduces frictional damping accordingly Moment of torsion.

Additionally, as shown in Figure 4, " consuming liquid measure hydraulic pressure datum characteristic " refers to braking is consumed liquid measure Q and master cylinder pressure The relation property benchmark set in advance corresponding diagram of Pmc.In this consumption liquid measure hydraulic pressure datum characteristic, consume if having braking Liquid measure Q increases the characteristic that then master cylinder pressure Pmc increases, and becomes the spy of the multistage curve obtained by luminance curve Composite Property.
Herein, it is also possible to by this consumption liquid measure hydraulic pressure datum characteristic is approximately multistage curve, this parameter is made successively Learn with method of least square etc., and tackle the change of timeliness deterioration etc..That is, liquid measure Q and reality now are consumed if based on braking The detected value of border master cylinder pressure PmcA, carries out learning correction to consuming liquid measure hydraulic pressure datum characteristic, then can update consumption liquid Amount hydraulic pressure datum characteristic.Therefore, it is possible to carry out more accurately owing to backstage is supplementary, inclusion of air brake fluid is medium and braking disappears The correction of the target relative shift Δ x* in the case of consumption liquid measure temporary variations.
Further, the braking as input characteristics in this consumption liquid measure hydraulic pressure datum characteristic consumes liquid measure Q, according to input lever Piston stroke Xb of stroke Xi and main piston 2b calculates based on following formula (4).It addition, for the main oil as output characteristics Cylinder pressure, uses the actual master cylinder pressure PmcA detected by main hydrostatic sensor 13 and secondary hydraulic sensor 14.

In described correction displacement calculation portion 82, consuming, by braking, the presumption braking that liquid measure presumption unit 81 calculates Consume liquid measure Q α and consume according to the required braking calculated by actual master cylinder pressure PmcA and consumption liquid measure hydraulic pressure datum characteristic When producing characteristic difference Δ V between liquid measure Q1, it is calculated as the displacement of targets correction of the correcting value of target relative shift Δ x* Δ x δ is poor to reduce this characteristic for amount.
In described target relative shift calculation unit 83, deduct by correction displacement gauge from target relative shift Δ x* The displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ that calculation portion 82 calculates, carries out the correction of target relative shift Δ x*, and after calculating correction Target relative shift Δ x**.
[calculating of displacement of targets correcting value processes structure]
Fig. 5 is the calculating handling process being shown in the brake monitor of embodiment 1 the displacement of targets correcting value performed Flow chart.Hereinafter, each step that figure 5 illustrates is described.
In step S101, according to the consumption liquid measure hydraulic pressure on the basis of the actual master cylinder pressure PmcA detected and one-tenth Datum characteristic, calculates to produce braking consumption liquid measure (the needs braking consumption liquid needed for this actual master cylinder pressure PmcA Amount Q1), move to step S102.
Herein, actual master cylinder pressure PmcA liquid based on the main hydraulic pressure chamber 2d detected by main hydrostatic sensor 13 Pressure and the hydraulic pressure of secondary hydraulic room 2e that detected by secondary hydraulic sensor 14 and calculate.
In step s 102, then the braking that needs in step S101 consumes the calculating of liquid measure Q1, needs braking based on this The presumption braking deduced in consuming liquid measure Q1 and consuming liquid measure presumption unit 81 in braking consumes the difference (liquid measure is poor) of liquid measure Q α, meter Calculate braking and consume variable quantity (increase and decrease amount) | the Δ V | of liquid measure, i.e. calculate the departure with target, move to step S103.
Herein, braking consumes variable quantity | the Δ V | of liquid measure is by deducting presumption braking from needs braking consumption liquid measure Q1 Consume liquid measure Q α and calculate.
In step s 103, then the braking in step S102 consumes the calculating of variable quantity | Δ V | of liquid measure, it is judged that this system The dynamic variable quantity consuming liquid measure | whether Δ V exceedes variable quantity threshold value th set in advance.In YES (variable quantity > variable quantity threshold value Th) move to step S104 in the case of.In the case of NO (variable quantity≤variable quantity threshold value th), it is judged that consume liquid for braking Variable quantity | the Δ V | of amount, i.e. less with the departure of target, it is not necessary to be corrected, mobile to terminating, terminate this correction gauge Calculation processes.
Herein, it is considered to the fluctuation etc. on such as sensor error, manufacture, " variable quantity threshold value th " is set as arbitrarily Value.Additionally, the variable quantity of the change for the imperceptible foot-operated sense of driver etc., it is also possible to arrange in variable quantity threshold value th partially Shifting amount.
In step S104, then the judgement of variable quantity > variable quantity threshold value th in step S103, calculates target phase Correcting value (displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ) to displacement Δ x*, mobile to terminating.
Herein, displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ obtains the most in the following manner.
First, using the master cylinder pressure that calculates based on the desired deceleration obtained according to input lever stroke Xi as target Master cylinder pressure Ps*.Herein, calculate according to the target master cylinder pressure Ps* of desired deceleration, measure deceleration the most in advance With the relation of pressure, the coefficient now obtained is used to carry out.
Then, if consuming liquid measure relative to the braking needed for target master cylinder pressure Ps*, (presumption braking consumes liquid measure Q α), using the correcting value of target relative shift Δ x* during braking consumption liquid measure change | Δ V | as " displacement of targets correcting value Δ x δ ", then the master cylinder pressure Psa relative to input lever stroke Xi is as the function of consumption liquid measure hydraulic pressure datum characteristic, below Formula (5) represents.
Psa=f (Xi, Δ x*-Δ x δ, | Δ V |) ... (5)
Therefore, master cylinder pressure variety Pe when being corrected target relative shift Δ x* is with following formula (6) table Show.
Pe=Ps*-Psa ... (6)
Additionally, according to the relation of pressure balance type (1), legpower when producing target master cylinder pressure Ps* is set to “FIR*”.On the other hand, when target relative shift Δ x* is corrected displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ, in order to produce Hydraulic pressure FIRa needed for raw master cylinder pressure Psa calculates with following formula (7).
FIRa=Ps AIR-K × (Δ x*-Δ x δ a) ... (7)
Therefore, the legpower variable quantity FIRe when being corrected target relative shift Δ x* represents with following formula (8).
FIRe=FIR*-FIRa ... (8)
Further, the evaluation function J represented with following formula (9) is set, is set as making by displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ This J becomes minimum value.
J ≡ (P*-Pe)TR_1 (P*-Pe)+(FIR*-FIRe)TR_2 (FIR*-FIRe) ... (9)
Each key element in this evaluation function J is as described below.
R_1: the weighting to the change of master cylinder pressure
R_2: the weighting to the change of legpower
It addition, R_1 and R_2 is to make driver will not feel well the change of foot-operated sense, makes even and weigh and set 's.
Below, the displacement of targets amount corrective action in the brake control of embodiment 1 is illustrated.
Fig. 6 is to illustrate that the displacement of targets correction process carried out in the brake control apparatus for vehicles of embodiment 1 The braking of effect consumes the corresponding diagram of the relation property of liquid measure and master cylinder pressure.
In the brake control apparatus for vehicles of embodiment 1, for the relative shift Δ to input lever 6 and main piston 2b X is controlled, first, and target setting phase corresponding with the requirement deceleration of the driver that the stroke Xi according to input lever 6 obtains To displacement Δ x*.Further, piston stroke Xb of main piston 2b is controlled, so that producing and this target relative shift The master cylinder pressure (target master cylinder pressure Ps*) of the size that Δ x* is corresponding.
Now, as produced along with supplementary grade the in the backstage of the brake fluid such as carried out by the use of pump type brake In the case of consuming the change of liquid measure hydraulic characteristic, the effective feeling of the braking sometimes felt by driver can change.
Therefore, in step S101 of the flow chart shown in Fig. 5, detect that the master cylinder pressure of practical function is (actual main Oil cylinder working-pressure PmcA).
Then, enter step S102, based on consuming liquid measure hydraulic pressure datum characteristic, obtain to realize the actual master detected Braking needed for oil cylinder working-pressure PmcA consumes liquid measure (needing braking to consume liquid measure Q1).
Then, enter step S103, based on consuming liquid measure hydraulic pressure datum characteristic, obtain to realize target master cylinder pressure Braking needed for Ps* consumes liquid measure (presumption braking consumes liquid measure Q α).Further, from needs braking consumption liquid measure Q1, presumption is deducted Braking consumes liquid measure Q α, calculates braking and consumes variable quantity | the Δ V | of liquid measure.
Now, as shown in Figure 6, become ratio presumption in needs braking consumption liquid measure Q1 and brake the feelings of value big for consumption liquid measure Q α Under condition, the actual actual master cylinder pressure PmcA produced becomes than the target master cylinder pressure obtained according to input lever stroke Xi The value that Ps* (presumption master cylinder pressure) is big.This represents that the brake force relative to input lever stroke Xi becomes to be above benchmark (with reference to figure 7)。
Additionally, as it is shown in figure 9, become ratio presumption in needs braking consumption liquid measure Q1 to brake the feelings of value little for consumption liquid measure Q α Under condition, the actual actual master cylinder pressure PmcA produced becomes than the target master cylinder pressure obtained according to input lever stroke Xi The value that Ps* (presumption master cylinder pressure) is little.This represents that the brake force relative to the stroke Xi of input lever 6 gets lower than benchmark (ginseng According to Figure 10).
Further, if this braking consume liquid measure variable quantity | Δ V | more than variable quantity threshold value th, then enter step S103 → Step S104, calculates the correcting value (displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ) of target relative shift Δ x*.
Now, the actual master cylinder pressure PmcA produced in reality becomes than target master cylinder pressure Ps* (presumption master cylinder Pressure) in the case of big value, the displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ in the direction reducing target relative shift Δ x* is set Fixed.
Thus, even if supplement brake fluid due to backstage in the impact supplemented etc., braking consume liquid measure increase and more than or In the case of brake pedal BP operational ton, it is also possible to suppress the system increased by making target relative shift Δ x* reduce The dynamic increase consuming liquid measure.It is as a result, it is possible to the effect of suppression braking changes, the change of brake feel, it is possible to suppression driver The sense of discomfort felt.
Additionally, become than target master cylinder pressure Ps* (presumption master cylinder at the actual master cylinder pressure PmcA of reality generation Pressure) in the case of little value, the displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ in the direction increasing target relative shift Δ x* is set Fixed.
Thus, even if causing the operational ton relative to brake pedal BP owing to air is mixed into etc. to brake fluid, braking In the case of consumption liquid measure tails off, it is also possible to make braking consume liquid measure increases by making target relative shift Δ x* increase. It is as a result, it is possible to the effect of suppression braking changes, the change of brake feel, it is possible to the sense of discomfort felt of suppression driver.
Additionally, when setting this displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ, by considering path increment (the input lever row of brake pedal BP Journey Xi), the legpower (input lever thrust FIR) of brake pedal and the relation of brake force (master cylinder pressure Pmc), by target position Shift correction amount Δ x δ is set as that the evaluation function J shown in formula (9) becomes minimum value, thus most preferably distributes stroke and system The relation of power, and legpower and the relation of brake force.
That is, as it is shown in fig. 7, in the relation of stroke and brake force, increase, then relative to braking if braking consumes liquid measure The path increment of dynamic braking pedal BP shortens.Therefore, it is possible to by carrying out the correction making braking consumption liquid measure diminish, and suppress stroke The impact shortened.
In contrast, as shown in Figure 8, in the relation of legpower and brake force, increase, to relatively even if braking consumes liquid measure Less in the impact of the legpower of the brake pedal of brake force, but reduce, then relative to brake force if braking consumes liquid measure The legpower of brake pedal reduces.Therefore, carrying out making braking to consume the timing that liquid measure diminishes, needing the impact shortened by stroke It is assigned to legpower side, makes balance optimization.
That is, when target relative shift Δ x* is corrected, it is possible to by path increment based on brake pedal BP and The legpower of brake pedal, is set displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ, and when will correct target relative shift Δ x* Path increment, the legpower of brake pedal and the brake force that impact the most suitably distributes to brake pedal BP.It is as a result, it is possible to press down The sense of discomfort that driver processed feels.
It addition, shown in Fig. 9, consume, in needs braking, the value that liquid measure Q1 becomes less compared with presumption braking consumption liquid measure Q α In the case of, it is possible to it is corrected by the way of with increase target relative shift Δ x*, and carries out making braking consume liquid measure Become big correction.Thereby, it is possible to the impact that suppression stroke is elongated.
Additionally, also now be able to by carrying out the correction making braking consumption liquid measure change big, and impact elongated for stroke is divided It is fitted on legpower side, makes balance optimization.
Finally, if deducting displacement of targets correction amount delta x δ from target relative shift Δ x*, target after correction is calculated Relative shift Δ x**, then control piston stroke Xb of main piston 2b as producing and target relative shift Δ after this correction The master cylinder pressure Pmc of the size that x** is corresponding.
As it has been described above, in the brake control apparatus for vehicles of embodiment 1, consume liquid measure in braking and increase and decrease relative to benchmark Time, to this braking consume liquid measure variable quantity | Δ V | (increase and decrease amount) estimate, based on this, the piston stroke to main piston 2b Xb is corrected so that the impact on braking effective feeling distributes the most suitable.Therefore, even if consuming the change of liquid measure hydraulic characteristic, It also is able to the change of the braking effective feeling suppressing driver to feel.
