In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in further detail below. It is to be understood that the embodiments described are only a few embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

Wherein, the drying cylinder 102 can be integrated with oil filter cotton for filtering oil and molecular sieve for drying air by absorbing moisture, the positive direction of the first one-way valve 103 can be the direction from the drying cylinder 102 to the air outlet 2, i.e. the gas can only be transmitted along the direction from the drying cylinder 102 to the air outlet 2, thereby avoiding the clean dry gas in the gas cylinder from being reversely transmitted from the first one-way valve 103 to the drying cylinder 102.
In the process of gas drying, gas from the electric air compressor can enter the electric dryer from the gas inlet 1 of the electric dryer and reach the drying tank 102 through the gas pipeline 101, water molecules in the gas can be adsorbed by the molecular sieve in the drying tank 102, and a trace amount of lubricating oil carried along with the compressed air can be filtered and adsorbed by the oil filter cotton in the drying tank 102.
After drying and filtering, the clean and dry gas dried and filtered by the drying tank passes through the first one-way valve 103, and is discharged out of the electric control dryer from the gas outlet 2 of the electric control dryer, and the clean and dry gas can reach the four-loop protection valve and is distributed to each gas cylinder through the four-loop protection valve.
On the other hand, the electric dryer may further include a controller 100, a solenoid valve 104 connected to the controller 100, and an unloading valve 107 connected to the exhaust port 3, a first end of the solenoid valve 104 may be connected to a pipe between the first check valve 103 and the gas outlet 2 using a gas pipe 105, a second end of the solenoid valve 104 may be connected to the unloading valve 107 using a gas pipe 106, and a third end of the solenoid valve 104 may be connected to the exhaust port 3 using a gas pipe 110.

Specifically, the two-pin connector X1 may be used to control the electric air compressor, such as controlling the enabling and disabling of the electric air compressor; the three-pin plug-in connectors X2 and X3 CAN be used for collecting air pressure values of the air cylinders, air pressure sensors of a first circuit loop and a second circuit loop of the braking system in the figure 1 CAN be connected to the electric control dryer through the two three-pin plug-in connectors, and then the electric control dryer CAN send the air pressure sensors to other system controllers needing the information in a CAN message mode, the electric control dryer CAN judge system states according to the air pressure values and continuous time of the braking system fed back by the two air pressure sensors, and whether the electric air compressor is enabled or not is determined or the electric air compressor is not enabled; the four pin jack X4 may be used for power and/or bus (CAN) communications.
It should be noted that, for a vehicle in which the air pressure sensors of the first loop and the second loop of the brake system are connected to other controllers, the electronically controlled dryer may also receive the air pressure values of the first loop and the second loop of the brake system in real time in the form of CAN communication.
When the controller 100 actuates the solenoid valve 104, the solenoid valve 104 is actuated via the lines 6.1 and 6.2 against the action of the spring force, so that the first and second ends of the solenoid valve 104 are connected, i.e. the gas line 106 and the gas line 105 are connected, and the second and third ends of the solenoid valve 104 are disconnected, i.e. the gas line 106 and the gas line 110 are disconnected.
Since the gas pipe 106 and the gas pipe 105 are communicated, the clean dry gas in the gas cartridge will pass through the gas outlet 2, the gas pipe 105, the electromagnetic valve 104, the gas pipe 106 and reach the control port of the unloading valve 107, the piston is pushed to open the gas outlet 3 against the action of the spring force, and the compressed gas remaining in the gas pipe 101 will be discharged to the atmosphere from the gas outlet 3 through the unloading valve.
When the controller 100 stops driving the solenoid valve 104, the second end and the third end of the solenoid valve 104 are connected, i.e., the gas pipe 106 and the gas pipe 110 are connected, and the first end and the second end of the solenoid valve 104 are disconnected, i.e., the gas pipe 106 and the gas pipe 105 are disconnected.
Since the gas pipe 106 and the gas pipe 110 are communicated, the gas in the unloading valve 107 can be discharged through the gas pipe 106, the electromagnetic valve 104, the gas pipe 110, the gas outlet 3, and the clean dry gas in the gas cartridge cannot pass through the electromagnetic valve 104.

The positive direction of the second check valve 108 may be the direction from the electromagnetic valve 104 to the drying cylinder 102, and the size of the through diameter of the throttle valve 109 may be adjustable, which may be used to control the size of the regeneration blowback gas amount per unit time.
When the controller 100 drives the electromagnetic valve 104, that is, the gas pipeline 106 and the gas pipeline 105 are communicated, the dry clean high-pressure gas in the gas cylinder can be regenerated and blown back to the drying tank 102 through the gas pipeline 105, the electromagnetic valve 104, the gas pipeline 106, the second check valve 108 and the throttle valve 109, and water molecules and the like adsorbed by the drying agent in the drying tank 102 are discharged into the atmosphere through the unloading valve 107 and the outlet 3 along with the high-pressure gas.
When the regeneration back-blowing process needs to be stopped, the controller 100 can stop driving the electromagnetic valve 104, the electromagnetic valve 104 can cut off the communication between the gas pipeline 105 and the gas pipeline 106 under the action of the spring force, the gas pipeline 106 is communicated with the gas pipeline 110, and the compressed gas at the control port of the unloading valve 107 can be exhausted into the atmosphere through the internal pipeline 106 and the electromagnetic valve 104 and then through the gas pipeline 110 from the exhaust port 3, so that the complete regeneration back-blowing process is realized.

Referring to fig. 4, a flowchart illustrating steps of a method for controlling an electronically controlled dryer, which may be applied to a controller 100 of the electronically controlled dryer, according to an embodiment of the present invention, is shown, where the controller 100 is connected to an air tank and an electric air compressor, respectively.
Specifically, the method can comprise the following steps:
step 401, the controller 100 obtains the air pressure value of the air cylinder;
in practical applications, as shown in fig. 2, the controller 100 can obtain the air pressure value of the air cylinder from the air pressure sensor of the air cylinder through the three-pin connectors X2 and X3, respectively.
Step 402, when detecting that the air pressure value is smaller than a preset secondary air supply pressure value, the controller 100 controls the electric air compressor to enable;
after the air pressure value of the air storage cylinder is obtained, whether the air pressure value is smaller than a preset secondary air supply pressure value or not can be judged, and if the air pressure value is larger than or equal to the secondary air supply pressure value, operation can be omitted.
If the air pressure value is smaller than the secondary air supply pressure value, the electric air compressor can be controlled to be enabled, and the second fund enables air compressed by the electric air compressor to enter the drying tank 102 through the air inlet 1, and the air is dried and filtered in the drying tank 102 and then is conveyed to the air storage cylinder through the first one-way valve 103 and the air outlet 2.
In step 403, the controller 100 controls the electric air compressor to stop enabling when detecting that the air pressure value is greater than a preset unloading pressure value.
After the air pressure value of the air storage cylinder is obtained, the air pressure value can be judged to be larger than a preset unloading pressure value, if the air pressure value is smaller than or equal to the unloading pressure value, the operation can be stopped, and if the air pressure value is larger than the unloading pressure value, the electric air compressor can be controlled to stop enabling, so that more air is prevented from being introduced.
In the embodiment of the invention, the air pressure value of the air storage cylinder is obtained, the electric air compressor is controlled to be enabled when the air pressure value is detected to be smaller than the preset secondary air supply pressure value, and the electric air compressor is controlled to be stopped to be enabled when the air pressure value is detected to be larger than the preset unloading pressure value, so that the intelligent control on starting and stopping of the electric air compressor is realized, and the air consumption requirement of a vehicle can be better met.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the method may further include the steps of:
the controller 100 controls the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 to be communicated when the air pressure value is larger than the unloading pressure value.
In order to perform unloading and regenerative blow-back, the controller 100 may control the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 to communicate with each other when the air pressure is greater than the unloading pressure value, so that the gas in the gas cartridge may be discharged through the electromagnetic valve 104, the unloading valve 107, and the exhaust port 3, thereby achieving unloading.
Moreover, the gas in the gas cylinder can be transmitted to the drying tank 102 through the electromagnetic valve 104, the second one-way valve 108 and the throttle valve 109, and the gas in the drying tank 102 can be discharged through the unloading valve 107 and the exhaust port 3, so that the regeneration blowback is realized.
In the embodiment of the invention, under the condition that the air pressure value is greater than the unloading pressure value, the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 are controlled to be communicated, so that the unloading and the regenerative back flushing of the intelligent control electric control dryer are realized, and the unloading and the regenerative back flushing can be simultaneously realized through one electromagnetic valve 104.

The regenerative blowback condition may include:
the time interval from the last regeneration back flushing is greater than the preset time interval;
and/or the pumping capacity of the electric air compressor after the last regeneration back flushing is larger than the preset single maximum drying capacity of the drying tank 102.
When the air pressure value is greater than the unloading pressure value, whether the air pressure value is greater than a preset maximum unloading pressure value or not can be further judged, and when the air pressure value is greater than the maximum unloading pressure value, the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 can be directly controlled to be communicated so as to carry out unloading and regenerative back flushing.
When the air pressure value is judged to be less than or equal to the maximum unloading pressure value, whether a preset regeneration back-blowing condition is met or not can be further detected, if the regeneration back-blowing condition is not met, the operation can be omitted, and if the regeneration back-blowing condition is met, the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 can be controlled to be communicated so as to carry out unloading and regeneration back-blowing.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the method may further include the steps of:
under the condition that the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 are communicated, if the air pressure value is detected to be smaller than or equal to the back blowing stopping pressure value, the controller 100 controls the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 to be disconnected.
The pressure value of the back blowing stopping can be a pressure value corresponding to the quantity of the regenerated back blowing gas, and the quantity of the regenerated back blowing gas is related to the volume of the gas storage cylinder.
Under the condition that the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 are communicated, whether the air pressure value is smaller than or equal to the stop back-blowing pressure value or not can be further detected, if the air pressure value is detected to be larger than the stop back-blowing pressure value, operation can be omitted, if the air pressure value is detected to be smaller than or equal to the stop back-blowing pressure value, the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 can be controlled to be disconnected, unloading and regeneration back-blowing are stopped, intelligent regeneration back-blowing is achieved according to the saturation of the drying agent, the condition of excessive regeneration back-blowing is avoided, and the electric energy of the whole vehicle is saved.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the method may further include the steps of:
the controller 100 determines a real-time pumping capacity under the condition that the electric air compressor is enabled; the controller 100 determines a predicted pump gas amount; the controller 100 generates fault information when it is detected that the real-time pumping amount and the predicted pumping amount do not match.
Under the condition that the electric air compressor is enabled, the air pressure of the system CAN be judged to rise according to the total volume of the air storage cylinder and the air consumption condition of the vehicle, namely, the real-time air pumping quantity is calculated, the predicted air pumping quantity CAN be calculated according to the air pumping time of the electric air compressor, when the fact that the real-time air pumping quantity is not matched with the predicted air pumping quantity is detected, faults such as serious air leakage and the like possibly exist, fault information is generated, the fault information CAN be sent to the outside in the form of a CAN message, an alarm is given, and the driving safety is guaranteed.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the method may further include the steps of:
the controller 100 controls the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 to be communicated if the air pressure value is detected to be greater than a preset maximum pumping pressure value in the enabled state of the electric air compressor.
After the controller 100 applies high voltage to the electric air compressor, the electric air compressor may be in an enabled state, and if the controller 100 of the electric dryer loses control over the electric air compressor due to a line problem, the electric air compressor cannot be disabled, and further the electric air compressor cannot be enabled to stop pumping, a failure operating mode may be set.
In the failure mode, when the controller 100 obtains a pressure value exceeding a set maximum pump air pressure value through an air pressure sensor connected with the plug connector, for example, the plug connectors X2 and X3 obtain the pressure value in fig. 2, or the plug connector X4 obtains the pressure value through CAN information, the controller 100 CAN control the first end and the second end of the electromagnetic valve 104 to be communicated, and further control the electromagnetic valve 104 to open the unloading valve 107, so that the system pressure is reduced, and meanwhile, the failure information CAN be reported through the plug connector, for example, the plug connector X4 in fig. 2 prompts a user of a system failure, thereby avoiding that the system pressure will be continuously increased due to control failure of the electric air compressor.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the method may further include the steps of:
the controller 100 determines a total dry gas amount of the dry tank 102; the controller 100 uses the total amount of dry gas, and the controller 100 determines the remaining usage time of the dry tank 102; and/or the controller 100 generates a replacement prompt message for the drying tank 102 when the total dry air amount is greater than or equal to a preset maximum total dry air amount.
In specific implementation, the electric control dryer CAN obtain the rotation speed information of the electric air compressor and the exhaust gas volume in unit time through the plug, and further CAN calculate the total dry air volume of the drying tank 102, for example, the information obtained by the CAN loop of the plug X4 in fig. 2, and then CAN calculate the remaining service time of the drying tank 102 according to the total dry air volume by combining the air volume of daily driving of the vehicle and the maximum total dry air volume of the drying tank 102 of the electric control dryer, so as to predict the replacement date of the drying tank 102.
Moreover, when the total dry air amount of the dry tank 102 reaches the designed maximum total dry air amount, the electronically controlled dryer controller 100 may send a dry tank 102 replacement prompt message through the plug, such as the CAN bus send message of the plug X4 in fig. 2, to prompt the user to replace the dry tank 102.

s08: the system judges whether the interval time from the last regenerative back flushing is greater than the set time N minutes (namely the preset time interval), if so, the S10 is entered, otherwise, the S09 is entered;
s09: after the step is carried out, the electric control dryer does not need to carry out regeneration back blowing, the electric control dryer controls the electric air compressor to stop enabling, and then the step returns to S01;
s10: after the step is carried out, it is indicated that the pressure value of the system reaches the unloading pressure value, meanwhile, when the electric control dryer dries the air supplied by the electric air compressor, the adsorbed moisture is saturated, the electric control dryer controls the electric air compressor to stop enabling, and meanwhile, regeneration back blowing is carried out, and when the air quantity of the regeneration back blowing reaches delta P (namely, the first stopping back blowing pressure value), the system returns to S01;
