Description

Electronic control brake power assisting system and vehicle brake system
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of vehicle braking systems, in particular to an electric control braking boosting system for an automobile, which is applicable to various motor vehicles, including new energy vehicles such as electric vehicle hybrid power and the like; and to a vehicle braking system incorporating such an electrically controlled brake assist system.
Background
With the breakthrough of new energy vehicle technology, compared with the traditional fuel vehicle, the new energy vehicle has more and more obvious specific advantages and the share of the new energy vehicle also increases year by year. Since the new energy vehicle and the conventional fuel vehicle are different in terms of power driving, some structures or components that can be used in the conventional fuel vehicle are not suitable for the new energy vehicle.
For example, in the field of braking of automobiles, conventional fuel automobiles use a vacuum booster for brake assist, which uses vacuum generated from an intake manifold of an engine as a vacuum source to generate brake assist. In a hybrid electric vehicle in the new energy vehicle, an engine cannot be similar to a traditional fuel vehicle, so that the engine always works to generate a vacuum source, and particularly, a pure electric vehicle does not have the engine and cannot generate the vacuum source by utilizing the engine.
In this regard, a common solution in the industry is to install an electronic vacuum pump on a new energy vehicle to generate a vacuum source to provide braking assistance. However, the problems of the service life, noise, performance and the like of the electronic vacuum pump are brought, and the braking energy recovery function on the new energy vehicle cannot be realized by adopting the mode that the electronic vacuum pump is matched with the vacuum booster. Therefore, an electric control assist system has been developed in the industry, which can realize a conventional brake assist function and also can conveniently realize a brake energy recovery function.
However, the basic principle of the conventional electronic control power-assisted braking system is that mechanical and electronic electrical technologies are adopted to realize motor drive power assistance and driver brake pedal force input so as to jointly generate vehicle braking force.

The electric control power-assisted control system is fundamentally characterized in that the brake pedal force of a driver and the brake assistance force of a motor are superposed to realize the brake assistance function, and the brake pedal force and the brake assistance force are coupled in series. This configuration cannot be implemented if more complex braking system functions are to be implemented, such as braking energy recovery.
In addition, the traditional electric control power-assisted control system has the defect of low efficiency due to the adoption of a worm and gear structure; the use of the ball screw has the disadvantage of high requirements on the screw process, which results in high cost.

Wherein the brake pedal 16 and the brake pedal push rod 17, both of which may be similar to existing designs, have a small return spring configuration. The structures of the right front and left rear booster cylinder piston, the booster cylinder, and the left front and right rear booster cylinder piston may be similar to the conventional booster cylinder design, and are only schematic diagrams here.
Referring to FIG. 2, a planetary gear reduction mechanism embodying the present invention is illustrated. It comprises a planet carrier 10.1, a ring gear 10.2, a planetary gear set 10.4, a sun gear 10.3, a planet carrier gear 10.5 and a rack and pinion 10.6. The rack pinion 10.6 is respectively meshed with a right front left rear brake cylinder push rod (rack) 8 and a left front right rear brake cylinder push rod (rack) 11 which are symmetrically distributed.
Referring to fig. 3, there is shown a structure of a brake pedal simulator included in the present invention. The brake fluid inlet hole 1.1 of the brake master cylinder, the brake fluid inlet and outlet hole 1.2 of the pedal simulator, the brake pedal push rod guide block 1.3, the brake fluid outlet hole 1.4 of the brake master cylinder, the seal ring 20.1 of the pedal simulator, the seal ring 22.1 at the front end of the piston of the brake master cylinder, the middle annular groove 22.2 of the piston of the brake master cylinder and the seal ring 22.3 at the rear end of the piston of the brake master cylinder are arranged in the brake simulator.
The brake master cylinder piston middle ring groove 22.2 can realize that the pedal simulator cylinder body 22 is in the whole pedal stroke range, and brake fluid in the pedal simulator cylinder body 22 is communicated with the brake fluid inlet and outlet hole 1.2 of the pedal simulator and is controlled by the pedal simulator pipeline normally closed electromagnetic valve 19.
The working modes of the electric control brake power-assisted system provided by the invention comprise a normal state brake mode and a failure state brake mode. These two modes of operation will be described separately below.
First, the normal braking mode, which is a braking mode in the case where the vehicle electrical system is powered normally and the electronic control unit 15 signals monitoring is normal.
In the normal braking mode, when the driver depresses the brake pedal 16, the brake pedal 16 pushes the brake pedal push rod 17 to move, and then the pedal simulator piston 20 to move.
The electronic control unit 15 processes the received travel signal after sensing the displacement of the brake pedal push rod 17 through the brake pedal travel sensor 18.
After the algorithm processing is completed, the electronic control unit 15 sends an opening instruction to the pedal simulator pipeline normally closed electromagnetic valve 19, so that the brake fluid in the pedal simulator cylinder 22 flows to the brake chamber pot 7 through the brake fluid inlet and outlet hole 1.2.
Meanwhile, the electronic control unit 15 sends an opening instruction to the normally closed electromagnetic valve 26 on the left front and right rear brake cylinder pipeline and the normally closed electromagnetic valve 3 on the right front and left rear brake cylinder pipeline, so that the left front and right rear brake cylinder pipeline and the right front and left rear brake cylinder pipeline are communicated with the left front and right rear brake cylinder 14 and the right front and left rear brake cylinder 4.
Meanwhile, the electronic control unit 15 sends a closing instruction to the first normally open solenoid valve 27 and the second normally open solenoid valve 28 on the brake pipeline of the master cylinder, at this time, under the combined action of the check valve 23 on the liquid inlet pipeline of the master cylinder, the brake liquid in the master cylinder 25 is in a closed space and is incompressible, so that the pedal simulator cylinder (master cylinder piston) 22 cannot move forward.
Further, the electronic control unit 15 sends out a motor driving instruction according to an algorithm, the driving motor 9 rotates to generate torque, the planetary gear reduction mechanism 10 reduces the speed and increases the torque, the amplified torque is transmitted to the rack and pinion 10.6, so that the rotation torque is changed into linear thrust, the right front left rear brake cylinder push rod (rack) 8 and the left front right rear brake cylinder push rod (rack) 11 are respectively pushed to move, the right front left rear brake cylinder piston 6 and the left front right rear brake cylinder piston 12 are further pushed to move, finally, brake pressure is generated in the right front left rear brake cylinder 4 and the left front right rear brake cylinder 14, the whole vehicle brake force is generated, and the whole vehicle brake is realized.
In the process, the pedal simulation sensation generated by the pedal simulator piston 20 can be transmitted to the brake pedal 16 via the brake pedal push rod 17 and ultimately to the driver. Wherein varying the stiffness and damping of the brake pedal simulator return spring 21, different simulated brake pedal feel may be obtained.
Two pressure sensors 2 and 26 connected to the left front rear booster brake cylinder pipeline and the right front left rear booster brake cylinder pipeline monitor real booster brake cylinder pipeline pressure in real time and transmit the real booster brake cylinder pipeline pressure to the electronic control unit 15, so that the brake pressure generated by the driving motor 9 meets the brake requirement of the whole vehicle. Meanwhile, when the pipeline leakage is monitored, the whole system enters a safe braking mode state, and the functional safety requirement of the electric control braking system is met.
Further, when the driver releases the pedal, the pedal simulator piston 20 pushes the brake pedal push rod 22 to return under the action of the pedal simulator return spring 21. The pedal stroke sensor 18 outputs a signal for releasing the brake pedal 16 and transmits the signal to the electronic control unit 15.
The electronic control unit cuts off the operation of the driving motor 9, the right front left rear booster brake cylinder piston return spring 5 and the left front right rear booster brake cylinder piston return spring 13 push the right front left rear booster brake cylinder push rod (rack) 8 and the left front right rear booster brake cylinder push rod (rack) 11 to return respectively, so that the booster brake cylinder pipeline pressure is released, and the brake is released.
And secondly, the failure state working mode comprises a braking working mode under the condition that the whole electronic system is powered off and/or the power-assisted driving motor is locked or the driving torque is not provided abnormally.
In this failure mode of operation, the normally closed solenoid valve 19 on the pedal simulator conduit is in a normally closed state, the first normally open solenoid valve 27 and the normally open solenoid valve 28 on the master cylinder conduit are in a normally open state, and the normally closed solenoid valve 3 and the normally closed solenoid valve 26 on the two booster brake cylinder conduits are in a normally closed state. When the driver urgently depresses the brake pedal 16 in the fail-state operation mode, the electronic control unit 15 and the drive motor 9 cannot operate.
In this case, since the normally closed solenoid valve 19 of the pedal simulator is in a closed state, the brake fluid in the pedal simulator cylinder 22 cannot flow to the brake fluid pot 7 through the brake fluid inlet and outlet hole 1.2. The acting force of the brake pedal 16 and the brake pedal push rod 17 is directly transmitted to the pedal simulator piston 20, and since the pedal simulator piston 20 cannot move in the pedal simulator cylinder 22, at this time, the acting force of the brake pedal 16 is directly transmitted to the pedal simulator cylinder 22, that is, the piston of the brake pedal master cylinder, to push the brake pedal master cylinder piston 22 to move forward, so as to compress the brake fluid in the brake master cylinder 25, thereby generating high-pressure brake pressure.
Because the first normally open electromagnetic valve 27 and the second normally open electromagnetic valve 28 on the brake master cylinder pipeline are in an open state, the normally closed electromagnetic valve 3 and the normally closed electromagnetic valve 26 on the booster brake cylinder pipeline are in a normally closed state, the brake pressure of the brake master cylinder 25 directly passes through the brake fluid outlet hole 1.4 of the brake master cylinder and respectively flows to the left front brake wheel, the right rear brake wheel, the right front brake wheel and the left rear brake wheel, and therefore the brake force of the whole vehicle is generated.
When a driver releases a brake pedal, the brake master cylinder return spring 24 pushes the pedal simulator cylinder body (brake master cylinder piston) 22 to return, the check valve 23 on the brake master cylinder liquid inlet pipeline is opened for liquid supplement, the brake pressure in the whole brake master cylinder 25 is released, and the brake pedal is released. Therefore, under the failure mode, the vehicle brake can be realized by the treading acting force of the driver on the brake pedal, so that the vehicle brake safety is ensured.
The electronic control brake power-assisted system provided by the invention adopts the pedal simulator and the planetary gear speed reducing mechanism, has compact structure and high efficiency, symmetrically pushes two independent power-assisted brake cylinders to generate wheel braking force by utilizing gear-rack conversion, and has symmetrical stress, uniform abrasion and low noise of the speed reducing mechanism.
Furthermore, the pedal simulator and the brake master cylinder are integrated, and the pedal simulator cylinder is the piston of the brake master cylinder. By adjusting the return spring rate and damping performance of the pedal simulator, different brake pedal feel can be achieved. The whole electric control brake system has a compact structure, and the volume, weight and cost of the module can be effectively controlled while ensuring the functions required by normal braking. And the electronic control brake power-assisted system integrates a pedal simulator, so that the brake energy recovery capability of the new energy automobile can be conveniently realized.
Finally, the electric control brake boosting system provided by the invention can be conveniently matched with a traditional non-ABS (anti-lock brake system) module vehicle, an ABS vehicle and an ESC (electronic stability control) vehicle, and has no influence on the matching of the traditional ABS/ESC module.
The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the contents described in the above description, and those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the above-described embodiments without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention, and these changes and modifications should fall within the scope of the present invention.
