Fig. 1 is a block diagram of a wire control system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the brake-by-wire system includes: the vehicle control unit comprises a vehicle control unit 1, a brake controller 2, an electronic caliper 3 and a sensor assembly.
As shown in fig. 1, a Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) 1 and a Brake System Controller (BSC) 2 are electrically connected, an electronic caliper 3 is electrically connected to the Vehicle Control Unit 1 and the Brake Controller 2, and a sensor assembly is electrically connected to the Vehicle Control Unit 1, the Brake Controller 2, and the electronic caliper 3.
The vehicle control unit 1 is configured to output a first braking command to the brake controller 2 and the electronic caliper 3. The sensor assembly is used for detecting the opening degree of a brake pedal and the rotating speed of each wheel.
The brake controller 2 is configured to determine a target braking force of the electronic caliper 3 based on an opening degree of a brake pedal and a rotation speed of a wheel corresponding to the electronic caliper 3, and output a second brake command under control of the first brake command.
Wherein the electronic caliper 3 is configured to output a target braking force under control of the second brake command, or the target braking force is determined based on the opening degree of the brake pedal and the rotation speed of the wheel corresponding to the electronic caliper 3, and the target braking force is output under control of the first brake command.
The embodiment of the disclosure provides a brake-by-wire system, wherein a brake controller is electrically connected with a vehicle control unit, can receive a first brake instruction output by the vehicle control unit, and determines a target brake force of an electronic caliper based on the first brake instruction, the opening degree of a brake pedal detected by a sensor assembly and the rotating speed of each wheel, so as to control the electronic caliper to output the target brake force, thereby braking the vehicle wheels.
In addition, because the electronic calipers are electrically connected with the vehicle control unit and the sensor assembly respectively, when the brake controller fails, the electronic calipers can determine a target braking force directly based on the opening degree of the brake pedal and the rotating speed of the wheel corresponding to the electronic calipers, and output the target braking force under the control of the first braking instruction. Therefore, even if the brake controller fails to work normally, the electronic calipers can replace the brake controller and are used for outputting target braking force according to the first braking instruction, the opening degree of a brake pedal and the rotating speed of wheels, so that the brake-by-wire system can work normally, and the safety is improved; meanwhile, compared with the related technology, the auxiliary brake of hydraulic equipment is not needed, the development cost is low, and the installation is convenient and quick due to fewer parts.
The vehicle control unit 1 may collect various signals such as an accelerator pedal signal, a brake pedal sensor 12 signal, an actuator and a sensor signal, and make a corresponding determination according to the collected signal analysis, so as to monitor the actions of each controller on the lower layer, and enable the vehicle to work normally and stably.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the brake controller 2 is an electronic control device for controlling braking of the automobile. The brake controller 2 can obtain the opening degree of a brake pedal or the rotating speed of wheels, and performs brake force distribution on the electronic calipers 3, and fault processing, diagnosis and alarm of a brake system.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 1, the sensor assembly comprises: the brake pedal sensor 12 and the wheel speed sensor 13, and the brake pedal sensor 12 and the wheel speed sensor 13 are electrically connected to the brake controller 2, so that the brake controller 2 can obtain the opening degree of the brake pedal and the rotation speed of each wheel.
The brake pedal sensor 12 is a sensor for detecting the opening degree of a pedal of a service brake, and the opening degree detected by the brake pedal sensor 12 increases as the depth of stepping by the driver increases to control deceleration and parking of the vehicle.
The wheel speed sensor 13 is a sensor for measuring the rotation speed of the vehicle wheel, i.e. a component for reflecting the current vehicle speed, and the VCU can determine the current driving speed of the vehicle through the wheel speed acquired by the wheel speed sensor 13. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, each wheel is provided with a wheel speed sensor 13, so as to obtain the rotation speed corresponding to each wheel for differential speed control.
The vehicle control unit 1 is configured to output a first braking instruction when the opening degree of a brake pedal reaches a preset value. That is, the vehicle control unit 1 may be based on the opening degree condition of the brake pedal sensor 12, for example, when the opening degree of the brake pedal reaches 10%.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the preset value is greater than zero, that is, the opening degree of the brake pedal is greater than 0%, at this time, the vehicle control unit 1 may determine that the driver has an intention to brake, so as to output the first braking instruction.
The vehicle control unit may output a first brake command for instructing the brake controller 2 to determine the target braking force to control the electronic caliper 3 to output the target braking force, or for instructing the electronic caliper 3 to determine the target braking force and output the target braking force.
For example, the vehicle control unit 1 acquires that the opening degree of the brake pedal reaches 10%, that is, the opening degree of the brake pedal reaches a preset value, and determines that the driver needs to brake the vehicle at the moment, and the vehicle control unit 1 outputs a first brake instruction to the brake controller 2 to instruct the brake controller 2 to start working, or outputs the first brake instruction to the electronic calipers to instruct the electronic calipers 3 to determine a target brake force and output the target brake force.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1, the brake controller 2 may further receive active braking information, where the active braking information indicates that the vehicle is running normally under a non-adaptive cruise condition, and the vehicle controller outputs a signal that needs to be braked when the vehicle encounters an emergency dangerous condition, instead of a first braking instruction output by the vehicle controller 1 when the driver steps on the brake pedal actively. In this way, the brake controller 2 can also control the braking force of the electronic caliper 3 according to the braking signal autonomously output by the vehicle control unit 1 so as to control the braking of the vehicle.
For example, as shown in fig. 1, the brake Controller 2 and the vehicle control unit 1 may be connected via a CAN (Controller Area Network), the brake Controller 2 and the electronic caliper 3 may be connected via a CAN Network, and the vehicle control unit 1 and the electronic caliper may also be connected via a CAN Network.
As shown in fig. 1, the electronic caliper 3 comprises a microcomputer 31 and a caliper body 32 connected, the microcomputer 31 of the electronic caliper 3 being electrically connected to each other.
The electronic caliper 3 is connected with the brake controller 2, the microcomputer 31 is connected with the vehicle control unit 1, and the electronic caliper 3 is used for outputting target braking force under the control of the brake controller 2 or the microcomputer 31.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the electronic caliper 3 includes the microcomputer 31 and the caliper body 32, and the microcomputer 31 may control the caliper body 32 to output the target braking force based on the second braking instruction output by the brake controller 2. Alternatively, the microcomputer 31 determines a target braking force based on the opening degree of the brake pedal and the rotation speed of the wheel, and controls the caliper body 32 to output the target braking force to brake the wheel of the vehicle under the control of the first braking instruction output from the vehicle control unit 1.
Under the condition that the brake controller 2 has a fault, the caliper body 32 can also output a target braking force under the control of the microcomputer 31 so as to ensure that the brake-by-wire system can work normally and improve the safety; meanwhile, compared with the related art, the auxiliary brake of hydraulic equipment is not needed, the microcomputer 31 is only added in the electronic caliper 3, the development cost is lower, and the installation is convenient and quick due to the fact that the number of parts is small.
Optionally, the brake-by-wire system comprises a plurality of electronic calipers 3 of different priority.
The electronic caliper 3 with the highest priority is used for determining the target braking force of each electronic caliper 3 with the priority not higher than the own priority under the condition that the first braking instruction is received and the second braking instruction is not received, and outputting a third braking instruction to each electronic caliper 3 with the priority lower than the own priority. The electronic caliper 3 is also used to output a target braking force under the control of a third braking command.
If the electronic calipers 3 receive the first brake instruction and do not receive the second brake instruction, the brake controller 2 is indicated to be in a fault state, at this time, the electronic calipers 3 with the highest priority determine the target brake force of each electronic caliper 3 with the lower priority, and output a third brake instruction to control each electronic caliper 3 with the lower priority to output the target brake force, and the electronic calipers 3 with the highest priority are equivalent to replace the brake controller 2.
All the electronic calipers 3 with the priority lower than the highest priority are also used for determining the target braking force of each electronic caliper with the priority not higher than the priority of the electronic caliper under the conditions that the first braking instruction is received, the second braking instruction is not received, and the third braking instruction output by the electronic caliper 3 with the priority higher than the electronic caliper is not received, and outputting the third braking instruction to each electronic caliper with the priority lower than the electronic caliper. The electronic caliper 3 is also used to output a target braking force under the control of a third braking command.
If the electronic caliper 3 receives the first brake instruction and does not receive the second brake instruction, the failure of the brake controller 2 is indicated, and if the third brake instruction is not received, the failure of the electronic caliper 3 with the highest priority is indicated; at this time, the electronic caliper 3 having a lower priority than the highest priority is used instead of the electronic caliper 3 having the highest priority, and the other electronic calipers 3 are controlled.
Fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a linear control system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 2, the by-wire system comprises a first electronic caliper 301, a third electronic caliper 303, a second electronic caliper 302 and a fourth electronic caliper 304, of high to low priority, for a total of 4 electronic calipers 3. The microcomputers 31 of the four electronic calipers 3 are all electrically connected to each other.
After the vehicle control unit 1 outputs the first brake command and the first electronic caliper 301 does not receive the second brake command, the microcomputer 31 of the first electronic caliper 301 determines a target brake force of the caliper body 32 of the first electronic caliper 301 based on the opening degree of the brake pedal and the rotation speed of the wheel corresponding to the first electronic caliper 301, determines a target brake force of the caliper body 32 of the second electronic caliper 302 based on the opening degree of the brake pedal and the rotation speed of the wheel corresponding to the second electronic caliper 302, determines a target brake force of the caliper body 32 of the third electronic caliper 303 based on the opening degree of the brake pedal and the rotation speed of the wheel corresponding to the third electronic caliper 303, and determines respective target brake forces of the caliper body 32 of the fourth electronic caliper 304 based on the opening degree of the brake pedal and the rotation speed of the wheel corresponding to the fourth electronic caliper 304. Meanwhile, the microcomputer 31 of the first electronic caliper 301 outputs a third brake command to the second electronic caliper 302, the third electronic caliper 303 and the fourth electronic caliper 304 based on the first brake command, and the second electronic caliper 302, the third electronic caliper 303 and the fourth electronic caliper 304 output respective corresponding target braking forces under the control of the third brake command.
When the first electronic caliper 301 malfunctions, at this time, since the microcomputer 31 of the third electronic caliper 303 receives the first brake command, does not receive the second brake command, and does not receive the third brake command having a higher priority than that of the first electronic caliper 301 of the third electronic caliper 303, the microcomputer 31 of the third electronic caliper 303 determines the respective target braking forces of the caliper body 32 of the third electronic caliper 303 and the caliper bodies 32 of the second and fourth electronic calipers 302 and 304 based on the opening degree of the brake pedal and the rotation speeds of the respective wheels. Meanwhile, the microcomputer 31 of the third electronic caliper 303 outputs a third brake command to the second electronic caliper 302 and the fourth electronic caliper 304 based on the first brake command, and the second electronic caliper 302 and the fourth electronic caliper 304 output respective corresponding target braking forces under the control of the third brake command.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, by redundantly configuring the microcomputer machines in the electronic calipers, when the brake controller in the brake-by-wire system fails, the redundant microcomputer intervenes and undertakes the work of the failed brake controller, so that the failure time of the brake-by-wire system is reduced.
Alternatively, the ratio of the target braking force output by the electronic caliper 3 for braking the front wheel of the automobile to the target braking force output by the electronic caliper 3 for braking the rear wheel of the automobile is 7:3 to 8: 2. That is, the target braking force that needs to be output by the electronic calipers 3 for controlling the two front wheels is higher than the target braking force that needs to be output by the electronic calipers 3 for controlling the two rear wheels, and since most automobiles are driven by the front wheels, a larger braking force is applied to the driving wheels, which is beneficial to quickly realizing braking and improving the braking effect.
For example, the electronic caliper 3 for braking the front wheel of the automobile outputs a target braking force 7000N, and the two electronic calipers 3 respectively output 3500N target braking forces to the two front wheels of the automobile, i.e., the two front wheels of the automobile share the braking force equally. The target braking force output by the electronic calipers 3 for braking the rear wheels of the automobile is 3000N, and the two electronic calipers 3 respectively output 1500N target braking force to the two rear wheels of the automobile, namely the two rear wheels of the automobile are equally divided. The braking force is evenly distributed on the four wheels of the automobile, so that the problem of sideslip during automobile braking can be effectively avoided, and the braking safety is improved.
Illustratively, the electronic calipers 3 have four, respectively corresponding to the four wheels of the car. In the braking process, if any one electronic caliper 3 breaks down, the target braking force of at least one of other electronic calipers is improved, so that the problem of sideslip during automobile braking is avoided, and the braking safety is improved.
If the electronic calipers 3 for braking the front wheel of the automobile have faults, the target braking forces output by the two electronic calipers 3 for braking the rear wheel of the automobile are respectively increased by set values.
The set value is one half of the target braking force required to be output by the failed electronic caliper 3, so that the target braking force in other residual electronic calipers is improved.
For example, if the electronic caliper 3 for braking the left front wheel fails and the braking force that needs to be output by the electronic caliper 3 is 2000N, that is, the set value is 1000N, the braking force output by the two electronic calipers 3 for braking the rear wheel of the automobile can be increased by 1000N. So that the braking force required to be output by the failed electronic caliper 3 is distributed to other wheels in a balanced manner, and the braking safety is improved.
If the electronic calipers 3 for braking the rear wheel of the automobile have faults, the braking forces output by the two electronic calipers 3 for braking the front wheel of the automobile are respectively increased by set values.
For example, if the electronic caliper 3 for braking the left rear wheel fails and the braking force that needs to be output by the electronic caliper 3 is 1000N, that is, the set value is 500N, the braking force output by the two electronic calipers 3 for braking the front wheel of the automobile can be increased by 500N each. So that the braking force required to be output by the failed electronic caliper 3 is distributed to other wheels in a balanced manner, and the braking safety is improved.

As shown in fig. 3, the caliper body 32 may include a brake motor 321, a brake screw 322, a brake block 323, a floating caliper arm 324, and two brake pads 325 for braking the brake disc 4 of the automobile.
As shown in fig. 3, the brake motor 321 is electrically connected to the microcomputer 31, an output shaft 3212 of the brake motor 321 is in transmission connection with one end of the screw, one end surface of the brake block 323 is provided with a screw hole, the brake block 323 is in threaded connection with the other end of the screw through the screw hole, an end surface of the brake block 323 opposite to the brake screw 322 is fixed on one brake pad 325, the floating caliper arm 324 has a first connection end and a second connection end, the first connection end is connected to the brake motor 321, the second connection end is connected to the other brake pad 325, and the two brake pads 325 are respectively located on two sides of the brake disc 4.
When the electronic caliper 3 starts braking by receiving a braking signal from the brake controller 2, as shown in fig. 3, the output shaft 3212 of the brake electronics starts to rotate to drive the brake screw 322 to rotate, because the brake screw 322 is in threaded connection with the brake block 323, and the brake block 323 is fixed on the brake block 325, the brake block 325 is circumferentially limited, i.e. the brake block 325 does not rotate, so the brake block 323 does not rotate with the brake screw 322, so that the brake block 323 moves along the axial direction of the brake screw 322 under the action of the previous thread pair of the brake screw 322 and the brake block 323, when the brake block 323 pushes the brake block 325 against the brake disc 4, the brake block 325 and the brake block 323 cannot move continuously, so the brake screw 322 moves against the brake motor 321 in a direction away from the brake disc, because the brake motor 321 and the other brake block 325 are connected by the floating caliper arm 324, the brake motor 321 moves the floating caliper arm 324 and the other brake pad 325, and the other brake pad 325 and the brake motor 321 are disposed on both sides of the brake disc 4, respectively, so that the other brake pad 325 approaches the brake disc 4 and abuts against the brake disc, so that the two brake pads together clamp the brake disc 4 to apply a braking force to the brake disc 4 to brake the wheel.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 3, the brake motor 321 includes: the casing 3211, drive assembly, planetary gear train B.
As shown in fig. 3, the planetary gear train B may include: the planetary gear mechanism comprises an annular gear 3215, a central gear 3216, planetary gears 3217 and a planet carrier 3218, wherein the central gear 3216 is arranged in the annular gear 3215, the planetary gears 3217 are rotatably arranged on the planet carrier 3218, and the planetary gears 3217 are arranged between the central gear 3216 and the annular gear 3215 and are meshed with the central gear 3216 and the annular gear 3215.
As shown in fig. 3, the drive assembly a, the planetary gear train B and the microcomputer 31 are all located in the casing 3211, the planetary gear train B and the microcomputer 31 are respectively located at two sides of the drive assembly, an output shaft 3212 of the drive assembly is coaxially connected with a sun gear 3216 of the planetary gear train B, one end of a brake screw 322 is inserted into the casing 3211 and connected with a planetary carrier 3218 of the planetary gear train B, and a ring gear 3215 of the planetary gear train B is fixed on an inner wall of the casing 3211.
When the driving assembly in the rotating motor drives the output shaft 3212 to rotate, the output shaft 3212 of the driving assembly transmits power to the center wheel 3216 of the planetary gear train B, and the power is sequentially transmitted to the planetary gears 3217 and the planetary carrier 3218 after passing through the center wheel 3216, and since the planetary carrier 3218 is connected with the brake screw 322, the power is finally transmitted to the brake screw 322, so that the brake screw 322 can transmit torque to the brake pad 323 and the brake pad 325. By arranging the planetary gear train B between the brake screw 322 and the output shaft 3212, the speed ratio between the output shaft 3212 and the brake screw 322 can be changed, so that the brake motor 321 can transmit a larger torque to the brake screw 322 to meet the braking requirement of the electronic caliper 3.
Meanwhile, the microcomputer 31 is also disposed in the housing 3211 of the brake motor 321 to make the electronic caliper 3 into an integral structure, facilitating installation and protection of the microcomputer 31.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 3, the brake screw 322 is integrated with the planet carrier 3218. That is, the brake screw and the planet carrier 3218 are integrally formed, so that the structure can be simplified and the assembly can be completed quickly.
As shown in fig. 3, the driving assembly may include an output shaft 3212, a stator 3213 and two rotors 3214, the stator 3213 and the two rotors 3214 are coaxially sleeved outside the output shaft 3212, the stator 3213 is fixed to an inner wall of the housing 3211, the rotors 3214 are circumferentially fixed to the output shaft 3212, and the two rotors 3214 are located at two sides of the stator 3213 in the axial direction of the output shaft 3212.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the stator 3213 and the two rotors 3214 are axially disposed, and the two rotors 3214 are distributed on two sides of the stator 3213, so that the radial dimension of the brake motor 321 can be effectively reduced; meanwhile, two rotors 3214 can be arranged in the axial arrangement mode, so that a larger torque can be provided for the output shaft 3212 through the rotors 3214, and the electronic caliper 3 can output enough brake.
The reliability of the brake-by-wire system provided by the present disclosure is higher than that of the hydraulic brake system in the related art, for example, the hydraulic system generally includes a brake pedal, a vacuum booster, a brake master cylinder, a liquid storage tank, a brake hard pipe, a pipe joint, a brake hose, a brake fluid, a brake caliper and a controller, and according to a quality system, the reliability of each component is assumed to be 0.9998, and the total reliability of the hydraulic brake system is 0.98018, that is, 980.18 ‰. The brake-by-wire system comprises a brake pedal, an electronic caliper and a brake controller, and the reliability of the brake-by-wire system is 0.99401, namely 994.01 ‰ > 980.18 ‰, according to the same quality system, so that the reliability of the brake-by-wire system is higher than that of a hydraulic brake system.
