Valve 150 is often opened, i.e.,:Control valve 150 is normally opened control valve, for example, normally open solenoid valve.Brake vacuum force aid system also includes control
Device (being not shown in Fig. 1) processed, controller is connected with vacuum-ness detecting device 160 and control valve 150 respectively, for according to braking
The opening and closing of the vacuum degree control control valve 150 of vacuum boost system, so that vacuum tank 130 accesses vacuum line or disconnected
Open the connection with vacuum line.Such as:One end of vacuum booster 110 is connected with brake pedal 150 and the other end passes through vacuum
Degree sensor 160 is connected with the other end and brake vacuum pump 120 of control valve 150 respectively.In the runtime of brake vacuum pump 120
Between, when the vacuum of brake vacuum force aid system is less than first threshold and the duration is more than first scheduled time, control valve
150 close to disconnect the connection of vacuum tank 130 and vacuum line, until vacuum is recovered to Second Threshold and duration to exceed
During second scheduled time, control valve 150 is opened so that vacuum tank 130 is accessed in vacuum line.
It should be noted that first threshold and Second Threshold, first scheduled time and second scheduled time are demarcated in advance
Arrive.
In one embodiment of the invention, controller is connected with brake vacuum pump 120, and controller is additionally operable to according to braking
The start and stop of the vacuum degree control brake vacuum pump 120 of vacuum boost system.Such as:During brake vacuum pump 120 is run, work as system
When the vacuum of dynamic vacuum boost system is recovered to vacuum closing threshold value, brake vacuum pump 120 is out of service.
Specifically, the vacuum of brake vacuum force aid system is detected less than unlatching threshold value Vac on (i.e.:Vacuum is opened
Open threshold value) when, brake vacuum pump 120 is started working, and threshold value Vac off are closed when the vacuum of brake vacuum force aid system reaches
(i.e.:Vacuum closes threshold value) when, brake vacuum pump is stopped.
Further, when the vacuum of brake vacuum force aid system is less than vacuum unlatching threshold value, controller control system
Dynamic vavuum pump 120 is run.

Open state, the access brake vacuum force aid system in parallel of vacuum tank 130.When the vacuum of brake vacuum force aid system is less than vacuum
When opening threshold value, brake vacuum pump 120 works, and control valve 150 is in open mode, the access brake vacuum in parallel of vacuum tank 130
Force aid system.During brake vacuum pump 120 works, vacuum is less than certain threshold value A MPa (i.e.:First threshold) more than and maintain X
Second is (i.e.:First scheduled time), control valve 150 is closed, and vacuum tank 130 is isolated with brake vacuum force aid system.When vacuum is extensive
B MPa are arrived again (i.e.:Second Threshold) and the Y seconds can be maintained (i.e.:Second scheduled time), control valve 150 is opened, and vacuum tank 130 is simultaneously
Couple into brake vacuum force aid system.It should be noted that when vacuum returns to B MPa (i.e.:Second Threshold) and can maintain Y
Second is (i.e.:Second scheduled time), the condition that control valve 150 is opened also includes:Brake pedal status is the state do not stepped on.
In the above description, Vac on, Vac off, A, B, X, Y value can determine to close beforehand through multiple test calibration
The numerical value of reason.According to ambient value and existing vacuum pumpage, Vac on=-50Mpa, Vac off=- can be set
80Mpa, A, B choose between -50Mpa~-80Mpa, and X, Y optimize control demarcation according to control strategy.
That is, starting self-test after electricity on brake vacuum force aid system, after the completion of self-test, start to detect vacuum Vac,
As Vac≤Vac on, brake vacuum pump 120 is started working, and when judging Vac < A Mpa and lasting X seconds, illustrates that vacuum can not
Established in the short time, driver still has braking requirement, and brake vacuum force aid system can not provide enough brake boosts, influences
The maneuverability and security of vehicle drive, now close control valve 150, and vacuum tank 130 departs from brake vacuum force aid system.When
Vacuum Vac >=BMPa and lasting Y seconds, illustrate that vacuum meets brake boost demand enough, now open control valve 150,
By the access brake vacuum force aid system in parallel of vacuum tank 130, as vacuum Vac >=Vac off of system, brake vacuum pump
120 are stopped.
Brake vacuum force aid system according to embodiments of the present invention, vacuum tank and brake vacuum pump are subjected to parallel connection, and
