The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting of the invention. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures.
It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", and the like in the description and claims of the present invention and the accompanying drawings are used for distinguishing different objects, and are not used for limiting a specific order. The following embodiments of the present invention may be implemented individually, or in combination with each other, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited in this respect.
Fig. 1 is a block diagram of a hub motor control system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The hub motor control system comprises at least two motor control units Cm, a protection control unit 100 and a plurality of subunit motors Pn; wherein m represents the number of motor control units, m is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, P represents the number of subunit motors, n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 4, and n is an even number, as shown in fig. 1, fig. 1 exemplarily shows that two motor control units C1 and C2 are provided, and the motor control unit C1 correspondingly controls two subunit motors P1 and P2, and the motor control unit C2 correspondingly controls two subunit motors P3 and P4.
Each motor control unit Cm is electrically connected with the protection control unit 100; the driving pulse signal of one motor control unit Cm correspondingly controls a plurality of subunit motors Pn to work through the protection control unit 100, and at least two motor control units Cm are in communication connection.
The motor control unit Cm is used for self-checking whether a fault occurs, if not, receiving a torque command transmitted by a vehicle control unit VCU (vehicle control unit), converting the torque command into a D-axis current command and a Q-axis current command, converting the D-axis current command and the Q-axis current command into a D-axis voltage command and a Q-axis voltage command, further converting the D-axis voltage command and the Q-axis voltage command into driving pulse signals and transmitting the driving pulse signals to the protection control unit, and if so, replacing the signals which cannot be converted by the motor control unit Cm by the intermediate signals of the corresponding fault-free motor control unit Cm. Fig. 2 is a flowchart of converting a torque command into a driving pulse signal in a motor control unit according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The protection control unit 100 drives the corresponding subunit motor Pn to operate based on the received driving pulse signal.
For example, referring to fig. 1, the motor control unit C1 controls the subunit motor P1 and the subunit motor P2, the motor control unit C2 controls the subunit motor P3 and the subunit motor P4, and the motor control unit C1 and the motor control unit C2 CAN receive a torque command transmitted by the vehicle control unit VCU through the CAN bus to control the four subunit motors Pn, respectively; referring to fig. 2, the motor control unit C1 and the motor control unit C2 can sequentially convert the received torque command into a D-axis current command, a Q-axis current command, a D-axis voltage command, and a Q-axis voltage command, and finally convert the torque commands into driving pulse signals PWM, the motor control unit C1 and the motor control unit C2 finally output 12 driving pulse signals PWM to the protection control unit 100, and the 12 driving pulse signals PWM are all subjected to safety protection by the protection control unit 100 and then output to the corresponding 4 sub-unit motors Pn.
Specifically, the motor control units Cm can perform self-checking when the system is in operation to see whether a fault occurs, in the embodiment of the present invention, for example, when the motor control unit C2 fails, because the motor control unit C1 and the motor control unit C2 are in real-time communication connection, that is, the two motor control units Cm transmit their own control signals to each other in real time, and when the motor control unit C2 fails in self-checking, the signal that cannot be converted by itself is replaced by the intermediate signal transmitted by the motor control unit C1 without the fault in real time based on the type of the fault detected by itself. The intermediate signal is a signal occurring during the process of converting the torque command into the driving pulse signal PWM, and for example, the intermediate signal may be a D-axis current command and a Q-axis current command, or a D-axis voltage command and a Q-axis voltage command, and obviously, the intermediate signal may also be the driving pulse signal PWM.
The main function of the protection control unit 100 is to protect the hub motor control system in case of some serious failure by directly switching on and off the drive pulse signals PWM of each path inside the protection control unit 100, while in case of no failure, the protection control unit 100 can directly output the drive pulse signals PWM inputted from the motor control unit Cm to the corresponding subunit motor Pn in a shunt manner, that is, output the drive pulse signals PWM of 6 paths to each subunit motor Pn as shown in fig. 1. The protection control unit 100 may select a CPLD (Complex Programmable logic device) or an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) as required, or may use a single chip microcomputer, which is not described herein again.
According to the embodiment of the invention, when any motor control unit fails, the control signal of the failed motor control unit is replaced by the control signal of the non-failed motor control unit, so that the technical problem that one of the plurality of motor control units in the hub motor cannot perform fault-tolerant control to ensure stable system output after the failure occurs is solved, the fault-tolerant control mechanism of the hub motor control system is realized, and the stability of the hub motor control system is ensured.
Alternatively, the failures occurring in the motor control unit Cm include a torque command reception abnormality, a current sensor failure in the motor control unit, and a motor control unit internal abnormality.
Specifically, there are three common faults in the motor control unit Cm, which are a torque command receiving abnormality, a current sensor fault in the motor control unit, and an internal abnormality of the motor control unit. When the fault of the motor control unit Cm is that the torque command is received abnormally, the motor control unit Cm cannot convert the torque command into a D-axis current command and a Q-axis current command; when the fault of the motor control unit Cm is a fault of a current sensor in the motor control unit, the D-axis current command and the Q-axis current command cannot be converted into a D-axis voltage command and a Q-axis voltage command in the motor control unit Cm; when the fault of the motor control unit Cm is an internal abnormality of the motor control unit, the motor control unit Cm cannot generate a driving pulse signal PWM.
Alternatively, when the failure is a torque command reception abnormality, the intermediate signal is a D-axis current command and a Q-axis current command generated by the motor control unit Cm without a failure. Fig. 3 is a flow chart of fault-tolerant control when an abnormal torque command occurs according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Specifically, when the self-detected fault of the motor control unit Cm is that the torque command is received abnormally, that is, the motor control unit Cm cannot receive the torque command, and the torque command cannot be converted into the D-axis current command and the Q-axis current command, referring to fig. 3, taking the motor control unit C2 as an example of a failure, when the motor control unit C2 cannot receive the torque command through the CAN bus, the motor control unit C2 cannot convert the D-axis current command and the Q-axis current command, the motor control unit C2 will actively use the D-axis current command and the Q-axis current command transmitted by the motor control unit C1 in real time to further convert them, and finally obtain the driving pulse signal PWM, and transmits the driving pulse signal PWM to the protection control unit 100, and the protection control unit 100 controls the sub-unit motor P3 and the sub-unit motor P4 to operate based on the received driving pulse signal PWM.
Alternatively, when the fault is a fault in a current sensor in the motor control unit Cm, the intermediate signal is a D-axis voltage command and a Q-axis voltage command generated by the non-faulty motor control unit Cm. Fig. 4 is a flow chart of fault-tolerant control in the presence of a current sensor fault according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Specifically, when the fault self-detected by the motor control unit Cm is a current sensor fault, that is, the motor control unit Cm converts the D-axis current command and the Q-axis current command into the D-axis voltage command and the Q-axis voltage command through the current sensor, referring to fig. 4, taking the motor control unit C2 fault as an example, when the motor control unit C2 cannot convert the D-axis current command and the Q-axis current command into the D-axis voltage command and the Q-axis voltage command, the motor control unit C2 may actively use the D-axis voltage command and the Q-axis voltage command transmitted in real time by the motor control unit C1 to further convert them, obtain the driving pulse signal PWM, and transmit the driving pulse signal PWM to the protection control unit 100, and the protection control unit 100 controls the actions of the subunit motor P3 and the subunit motor P4 based on the received driving pulse signal PWM.
Optionally, when the fault is an internal abnormality of the motor control unit Cm, the intermediate signal is a driving pulse signal PWM generated by the motor control unit Cm without the fault; the motor control unit Cm is also used to transmit a fault signal to the protection control unit 100; the protection control unit 100 drives the sub-unit motor Pn corresponding to the failed motor control unit Cm to operate by using the driving pulse signal PWM transmitted from the non-failed motor control unit Cm based on the received failure signal. Fig. 5 is a flow chart of fault-tolerant control when an internal abnormality of a motor control unit occurs according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Specifically, when the self-detected fault of the motor control unit Cm is an internal abnormality of the motor control unit, that is, the motor control unit Cm cannot generate the driving pulse signal PWM based on the torque command, referring to fig. 5, taking the fault of the motor control unit C2 as an example, when the motor control unit C2 cannot generate the driving pulse signal PWM, the motor control unit C2 sends a fault signal to the protection control unit 100, the protection control unit 100 determines that the fault of the motor control unit C2 is an internal abnormality of the motor control unit based on the received fault signal, turns off the channel through which the motor control unit C2 sends the driving pulse signal PWM to the corresponding subunit motor Pn through the protection control unit 100, and simultaneously transfers 12 channels of the driving pulse signal PWM sent by the motor control unit C1 to the protection control unit 100 to the subunit motor P3 and the subunit motor P4 corresponding to the motor control unit C2 in a synchronous transfer manner, to achieve the effect of controlling the sub-unit motors P3 and P4 corresponding to the failed motor control unit C2 using the driving pulse signal PWM generated by the non-failed motor control unit C1.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 1 and 5, the in-wheel motor control system further includes a plurality of driving units 200, each driving unit 200 is electrically connected to the protection control unit 100, and one driving unit 200 is correspondingly connected to one subunit motor Pn; the protection control unit 100 controls the corresponding subunit motor Pn to operate through the driving unit 200 based on the driving pulse signal PWM.
Specifically, each of the subunit motors Pn needs to receive the driving pulse signal PWM transmitted through the protection control unit 100 through one driving unit 200 to realize the operation of the subunit motor Pn. Each driving unit 200 includes a driving module and an IGBT module, and is configured to control the corresponding subunit motor Pn to operate according to a driving pulse signal PWM.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1 and 5, the two motor control units Cm are connected to each other through an SPI connection line to transmit intermediate signals.
Specifically, an SPI connecting line is arranged between the motor control unit C1 and the motor control unit C2, that is, the SPI communication realizes the communication connection between the two; specifically, referring to fig. 3 and 4, when the intermediate signal is a D-axis current command and a Q-axis current command, or when the intermediate signal is a D-axis voltage command and a Q-axis voltage command, the intermediate signal is transmitted through the SPI connection line.
According to the embodiment of the invention, when any motor control unit fails, the control signal of the failed motor control unit is replaced by the control signal of the non-failed motor control unit, so that the technical problem that one of the plurality of motor control units in the hub motor cannot perform fault-tolerant control to ensure stable system output after the failure occurs is solved, the fault-tolerant control mechanism of the hub motor control system is realized, and the stability of the hub motor control system is ensured.
Fig. 6 is a flowchart of an in-wheel motor control method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The in-wheel motor control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is applied to the in-wheel motor control system shown in any one of the above embodiments, wherein a driving pulse signal of one motor control unit in the in-wheel motor control system correspondingly controls a plurality of sub-unit motors to work through a protection control unit, as shown in fig. 6, the in-wheel motor control method specifically includes the following steps:
in step S601, the motor control unit Cm self-checks whether a failure occurs.
Specifically, the motor control unit Cm can perform self-checking when the system is in operation to see whether a fault occurs, and there are three common faults of the motor control unit Cm, namely, a torque command receiving abnormality, a current sensor fault in the motor control unit, and an internal abnormality of the motor control unit.
Step S602, if not, the motor control unit Cm receives a torque command transmitted by the vehicle control unit VCU, converts the torque command into a D-axis current command and a Q-axis current command, converts the D-axis current command and the Q-axis current command into a D-axis voltage command and a Q-axis voltage command, and further converts the D-axis voltage command and the Q-axis voltage command into a driving pulse signal PWM and transmits the driving pulse signal PWM to the protection control unit 100.
Specifically, referring to fig. 1 and 6, two motor control units C1 and C2 are provided in the in-wheel motor control system, and the motor control unit C1 controls the two sub-unit motors P1 and P2 correspondingly, and the motor control unit C2 controls the two sub-unit motors P3 and P4 correspondingly, for example, when the self-checking result shows that no fault occurs, the motor control unit C1 and the motor control unit C2 in the in-wheel motor control system can convert the received torque command into a D-axis current command, a Q-axis current command, a D-axis voltage command, and a Q-axis voltage command in turn, and finally into a 12-channel driving pulse signal PWM, and then 12 paths of driving pulse signals PWM are output to the protection control unit 100, and the 12 paths of driving pulse signals PWM are all output to the corresponding driving unit 200 after being subjected to safety protection by the protection control unit 100, so as to drive the corresponding 4 subunit motors Pn to work.
Step S603, if yes, the faulty motor control unit Cm replaces the signal that cannot be converted by itself with the intermediate signal of the corresponding fault-free motor control unit Cm, where the intermediate signal is a signal in the process of converting the torque command into the driving pulse signal PWM.
Specifically, if the self-detection result indicates that a failure has occurred, taking the motor control unit C2 as an example of a failure, the motor control unit C2 replaces the signal that cannot be converted by itself with the intermediate signal transmitted in real time by the motor control unit C1 without a failure based on the type of the failure self-detected by itself, continues to generate the driving pulse signal PWM using the intermediate signal, and transmits the generated driving pulse signal PWM to the protection control unit 100. The intermediate signal is a signal occurring in the process of converting the torque command into the driving pulse signal PWM, for example, the intermediate signal may be a D-axis current command and a Q-axis current command, or a D-axis voltage command and a Q-axis voltage command, obviously, the intermediate signal may also be the driving pulse signal PWM, when the intermediate signal is the driving pulse signal PWM, it indicates that the fault type of the motor control unit C2 is an internal abnormality of the motor control unit, and at this time, the protection control unit 100 may turn off a channel through which the motor control unit C2 sends the driving pulse signal PWM to the corresponding subunit motor Pn through the protection control unit 100, and directly transfer the 12-way driving pulse signal PWM sent by the motor control unit C1 to the subunit motor P3 and the subunit motor P4 corresponding to the motor control unit C2 for control in synchronization.
In step S604, the protection control unit 100 drives the corresponding subunit motor Pn to operate based on the received driving pulse signal PWM.
Specifically, the main function of the protection control unit 100 is to protect the hub motor control system by directly turning on and off the respective drive pulse signals PWM inside the protection control unit 100 in case of some serious failure, while in case of no failure, the protection control unit 100 can directly shunt and output the drive pulse signals PWM input from the motor control unit Cm to the corresponding subunit motors Pn, that is, to output 6 drive pulse signals PWM to each subunit motor Pn as shown in fig. 1.
The protection control unit 100 may select a CPLD (Complex Programmable logic device) or an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) as required, or may use a single chip microcomputer, which is not described herein again.
