Detailed Description
The following description of the embodiments with reference to the drawings is provided to describe the embodiments of the present invention, and the embodiments of the present invention, such as the shapes and configurations of the components, the mutual positions and connection relationships of the components, the functions and working principles of the components, the manufacturing processes and the operation and use methods, etc., will be further described in detail to help those skilled in the art to more completely, accurately and deeply understand the inventive concept and technical solutions of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, the emergency control system for executing the emergency control method includes an EPS system, a vehicle controller, an active braking system (such as an ESC), a yaw angle sensor, a wheel speed sensor, a steering wheel angle sensor, and the like, in the driving process of the unmanned vehicle, if an EPS fault occurs (the EPS cannot realize steering), the vehicle controller sends an instruction to the active braking system (such as the ESC), and the active braking system brakes the inner side wheels of the entire vehicle expected to be steered, so that the entire vehicle is steered to park while keeping the vehicle, thereby ensuring driving safety.
Furthermore, the method is simple. In order to better control the vehicle, the system further comprises an EPB, a front camera or a GPS, the active braking system is connected with the EPB and sends a parking signal to the EPB, the vehicle can be parked after being stopped, the active braking system is connected with the front camera or the GPS to acquire the information of the lane where the vehicle is located, acquire the information of the lane where the vehicle is located and judge whether the vehicle is successfully leaned on the side.
As shown in a basic flow chart of the emergency control system shown in fig. 2, the system can monitor whether the electric control steering system fails in real time, calculate and obtain wheel-side torque according to related signal information such as current vehicle speed, lane information and driving intention after the failure of steering occurs, combine and obtain current vehicle speed signals, lane signals, yaw angular acceleration and other signal information of the vehicle after the wheel-side torque is adjusted to judge whether the exit requirement is met, repeat calculation and adjustment if the exit adjustment is not met, continuously perform closed-loop control according to the logic, adjust the torque until the driving requirement is met, and exit the emergency control system. The emergency control system can adjust the driving torque or the braking torque in real time during the whole execution action, and the whole vehicle instability or wheel locking is prevented.
Specifically, the emergency control method for steering failure of the automatic driving vehicle comprises the following steps:
1) in the automatic driving process of the vehicle, EPS fault information is monitored in real time;
2) the vehicle control unit receives EPS failure information and sends a command to an active braking system;
3) the active braking system brakes the inner wheels expected to turn, generates an inner and outer braking moment difference to deflect the whole vehicle, and simultaneously monitors the actual states of the whole vehicle and the wheels in the braking process to prevent the whole vehicle from over-turning and the wheels from locking;
4) the method comprises the steps that information of a lane where a vehicle is located is obtained in real time, and when the vehicle is close to the side, four wheels execute the same braking force to stop the vehicle;
5) when the whole vehicle stops at the side, the active braking system sends an instruction to an EPB (electronic parking system), and after the EPB realizes parking, the active braking system quits working.
Taking normal driving to the right as an example, when the EPS is failed, the vehicle control unit sends a command to the active braking system, and applies braking to the right front wheel and the right rear wheel to realize steering to the right. As shown in fig. 2, the active braking system (for example, ESC) drives the motor, opens the Supply valve, closes the TC valve, and closes the ISO valve of the other side wheel (left front and left back), so that when the brake is applied to the right side wheel, no brake is applied to the left side wheel, the braking force difference between the two side wheels causes the entire vehicle to turn right, and the vehicle stops at the side.
As shown in fig. 3, the information parameter is calculated by taking the driving vehicle running in a right turn as an example, the theoretical target yaw rate ω -v/R is obtained from the current vehicle speed v and the target turning radius R, the yaw acceleration d ω -d (v/R)/dt is obtained by derivation thereof,
according to the mechanical formula, the torque T is J d omega, wherein J is the rotational inertia of the vehicle,
and analyzing the torque of the whole vehicle and the wheel to obtain the rotation torque delta T of the whole vehicle (T1-T2) × L/2 r, wherein T1 and T2 are the torque of the left wheel side and the right wheel side, L is the wheel track, and r is the rolling radius of the tire
T1-T2=2J*r*(d(v/R)/dt)/L;
The theoretical value of the difference between the left wheel side torque and the right wheel side torque T1-T2 can be obtained through the calculation, the difference between the real-time yaw velocity value of the whole vehicle and the target yaw velocity value is used for correcting the T1-T2, the real-time yaw velocity value is smaller than the target yaw velocity value, and the difference between the left wheel side torque and the right wheel side torque is amplified; the real-time yaw angular velocity value is larger than the target yaw angular velocity value, and the torque difference between the left wheel side and the right wheel side is reduced.
The invention has been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, it is obvious that the invention is not limited to the specific implementation in the above-described manner, and it is within the scope of the invention to apply the inventive concept and solution to other applications without substantial modification.
