Description

Range-extending type electric four-wheel drive system and automobile
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of new energy automobiles, in particular to a range-extending type electric four-wheel drive system and an automobile.
Background
The main contradictions in the development of the electric automobile are the opposition of pure electric endurance mileage and safety, and the opposition of high energy consumption and high emission in the whole life cycle and the initial aim of energy conservation and emission reduction. The range-extended electric vehicle has all the advantages of a pure electric vehicle, such as high acceleration speed, smooth power and the like, and the problem of anxiety of endurance mileage is avoided. Zero emission and zero pollution are achieved in the pure electric mode, and the oil can be saved by more than 50% in the range extending mode compared with the traditional fuel oil automobile.
The conventional extended range electric vehicle power system generally adopts two forms. Firstly, an engine is additionally arranged on a pure electric vehicle to be used as a range extender, and the driving range is simply prolonged. When the electric quantity of the power battery is lower than a certain residual electric quantity SOC threshold value, the power system starts the engine to work to charge the battery. Such a system requires a large power battery capacity and weight, and a large range extender power, while there is about 10% energy loss during the charging and discharging process of the battery. The second range-extending electric system adopts the capacities of the engine and the battery which are less than or equal to the preset value through optimizing the electric system, and the working interval of the system is fixed in a power range with higher economical efficiency so as to improve the oil consumption level in the range-extending mode. The power battery can be prevented from being overcharged and overdischarged through the optimization of the charging strategy, and the service life of the power battery is prolonged. However, such a system still cannot avoid energy loss during battery charge-discharge, and the performance requirement of the highest vehicle speed determines that the capacity of the power battery cannot be further reduced. Large battery capacity, heavy weight and high cost. Meanwhile, the battery always works under high load, and the cycle life is influenced by being larger than a preset value.
The existing four-wheel drive systems of pure electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles are in two categories. One type is that an electric drive axle or a pair of hub motors is added on a front axle or a rear axle to form a four-wheel drive structure, and functions of driving force distribution, differential speed and the like are realized through an electronic system. The other type is distributed driving adopting a hub motor, and differential speed and torque distribution are realized through an electronic system. The two types of electric four-wheel drive systems completely depend on an electronic and electric control system, complex control logic is needed, and the reliability and the stability of the two types of electric four-wheel drive systems in a severe field are far lower than those of the traditional mechanical four-wheel drive system. For automobiles which adopt integral bridges for non-paved road surfaces and road surfaces, the electric drive system on the axle or the wheel can obviously increase the unsprung mass of the whole automobile, and the electric drive system which jumps up and down along with the integral bridge is required to have extremely high impact vibration resistance, sealing antifouling performance, structural durability and the like. Therefore, the two types of electric four-wheel drive systems are not suitable for non-paved pavements and are not suitable for automobiles. Meanwhile, in a low-temperature environment, the battery can be in an instable condition of power shortage and the like, so that the conventional electric four-wheel drive system has the defects of poor reliability, high system complexity, poor environment adaptability and the like compared with the conventional mechanical four-wheel drive system.

The engine 100 of the present embodiment is a high compression ratio four-cylinder engine 100 and employs miller cycle and cooling techniques to improve fuel economy throughout its range. However, the engine 100 is not limited to the four-cylinder engine 100, nor to the engine 100 using the fuel-saving technique, but may be other types of engines 100 using other techniques.

The extended-range electric four-wheel drive system of the embodiment integrates the central differential lock, the front axle differential lock and the rear axle differential lock, and has extremely strong difficulty-escaping capability and performance.
The driving motor 300 of the embodiment can realize both the motor function and the power generation function; during normal operation of engine 100, the primary power is used to generate electricity, in addition to providing the power required to power the accessories; the vehicle control unit 600 controls the rotation speed and the output power of the engine 100 and the generator 200 through the engine control unit 101 and the generator control unit 201 by adopting a power following strategy according to the power required by the system load, the SOC of the power battery 500 and user input such as a driving mode; under the power following strategy, the output power provided by the generator 200 is mainly used as the power for meeting the system load requirement, and the power battery 500 plays a role in peak clipping and valley filling; when the two-gear electrically-driven gearbox 400 normally works, the driving force/torque is transmitted to the mechanical front drive axle 700 and the mechanical rear drive axle 800 through the integrated central differential device at the same time, so that a full-time four-wheel drive structure is formed; the front drive axle and the rear drive axle are both integrated with a main speed reducer and a differential lock, and adopt mature disconnected or non-disconnected mechanical drive axle structures. The problems that an existing extended range power system is low in energy efficiency and small in battery weight and service life, and an existing electric four-wheel drive system is poor in reliability and high in complexity and is not suitable for automobiles are solved.
The crankshaft of the engine 100 of the present embodiment is directly connected to the input shaft of the generator 200 in a coaxial manner or in a combined transmission connection in a manner of coupling and clutch mechanism; the output shaft of the driving motor 300 is in coaxial direct connection with the input shaft of the two-gear electrically-driven transmission or in combined transmission connection through a combination mode of a coupler and a clutch mechanism. The differential output shaft of the two-gear electrically-driven gearbox 400 is connected with the main reducer input shaft of the mechanical front drive axle 700; the output shaft of the differential device of the two-gear electrically-driven gearbox 400 is coaxially and directly connected with the input shaft of the main speed reducer of the mechanical rear drive axle 800 through a transmission shaft or is in transmission connection through a combination of the transmission shaft and a coupling. The output shaft of the rear differential device integrated with the mechanical rear drive axle 800 is coaxially and directly connected with the traveling rear wheel 901 through a transmission shaft or is in transmission connection through the combination of the transmission shaft, a coupler and a clutch mechanism; the output shaft of the front differential device integrated with the mechanical front drive axle 700 is coaxially and directly connected with the front traveling wheel 900 through a transmission shaft or is in transmission connection through the combination of the transmission shaft, a coupling and a clutch mechanism.
The vehicle control unit 600 of the present embodiment is electrically connected to the engine control unit 101; the vehicle control unit 600 is electrically connected with the generator control unit 201; the vehicle control unit 600 is electrically connected with the driving motor control unit 301; the whole vehicle controller 600 is electrically connected with the gear shifting and differential lock control unit 401; the vehicle control unit 600 is electrically connected with the battery management system 501.
In the extended range electric four-wheel drive system of the embodiment, when the power currently provided by the generator 200 is lower than or lags behind the demand of the driving motor 300, the difference of the demanded power is satisfied by discharging the power battery 500 to the driving motor 300. When the power provided by the generator 200 is higher or earlier than the demand of the driving motor 300, the power of the generator 200 is shunted to the power battery 500, i.e. the remaining power of the generator 200 is used to charge the power battery 500.
When certain conditions are met, for example, when the vehicle control unit 600 detects that the vehicle is in a stable braking process and the SOC of the power battery 500 is lower than a certain set threshold, the vehicle control unit 600 sends a rotation speed reduction and an output power reduction to the engine control unit 101 and the generator control unit 201, and simultaneously sends an instruction to the driving motor control unit 301, so as to convert the function of the driving motor 300 into the generator 200, and reversely charge the power battery 500, thereby achieving the function of recovering braking energy. In the extended range electric four-wheel drive system of the embodiment, when the two-gear electrically driven transmission 400 normally works, the driving force/torque is simultaneously transmitted to the mechanical front drive axle 700 and the mechanical rear drive axle 800 through the integrated central differential device, so as to form a full-time four-wheel drive structure.
When the vehicle control unit 600 detects that one of the driving axles idles or the load torque is less than or equal to the preset value, the vehicle control unit 600 sends a central differential lock locking instruction to the gear shifting and differential lock control unit 401, or locks the central differential lock in a manner of prompting a user to manually switch, so that the mechanical front driving axle 700 and the mechanical rear driving axle 800 are rigidly connected, most of the torque or even all of the torque is transmitted to the driving axle which does not idle or the load torque is greater than the preset value, and therefore sufficient traction force is generated, and the vehicle can continue to run. When the mechanical front drive axle 700 normally works, the driving force/torque transmitted from the central differential device is amplified by the integrated front axle main reducer, and the driving force/torque is transmitted to the two front traveling wheels 900 on both sides by the integrated front axle differential device, so that the matching of the driving force and the rotating speed between the two front traveling wheels 900 is realized.
When the vehicle control unit 600 detects that one of the two front traveling wheels 900 idles or the load torque is less than or equal to the preset value, the vehicle control unit 600 locks the front differential lock in a manner of sending a front differential lock locking instruction to the front differential lock controller 701 or in a manner of prompting a user to manually switch, so that two output shafts on two sides of the mechanical front drive axle 700 are in rigid connection, most of or even all of the torque of the front axle is transmitted to the other front traveling wheel 900 which does not idles or has the load torque greater than the preset value, and the front axle generates sufficient traction force. When the mechanical rear drive axle 800 normally works, the driving force/torque transmitted from the central differential device is amplified by the integrated rear axle main reducer, and the driving force/torque is transmitted to the two traveling rear wheels 901 on both sides by the integrated rear axle differential device, so that the matching between the driving force and the rotating speed of the two traveling rear wheels 901 is realized.
When the vehicle control unit 600 detects that one of the two traveling rear wheels 901 idles or the load torque is less than or equal to the preset value, the vehicle control unit 600 locks the rear differential lock in a manner of sending a rear differential lock locking instruction to the rear differential lock controller 801 or in a manner of prompting a user to manually switch, so that the two output shafts on two sides of the mechanical rear drive axle 800, namely the integrated front axle main speed reducer and the front differential lock, are rigidly connected, and most of the torque or even all of the torque of the rear axle is transmitted to the other traveling rear wheel 901 which does not idle or has the load torque greater than the preset value, so that the rear axle generates sufficient traction force.
As shown in fig. 2, the second embodiment provides an extended-range electric four-wheel drive system, and on the basis of the above embodiments, the vehicle control unit 600 further controls a front differential lock controller 701 and a rear differential lock controller 801; the front differential lock controller 701 controls the mechanical front drive axle 700, and the rear differential lock controller 801 controls the mechanical rear drive axle 800.
