Description

Braking system with redundancy design and control method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of vehicle braking, in particular to a braking system with a redundant design and a control method.
Background
The boosting of the traditional automobile braking system is realized by utilizing vacuum generated by the work of an engine or vacuum generated by the work of an electronic vacuum pump in a vacuum booster. As shown in fig. 3, reference numeral 4 denotes the vacuum booster. When braking, a driver steps on the brake pedal 6 to drive the brake master cylinder 3 to build pressure on the brake 1 through the electric control pressure regulating unit ABS/ESC2 so as to generate brake hydraulic pressure; in the process, the vacuum booster is required to amplify the pedal force in proportion, so that the driver can realize the braking force meeting the braking requirement of the whole vehicle under the appropriate pedal feeling force.
With the development of new energy technology and braking technology of automobiles, the demand for a brake system without vacuum assistance is increasing. The method is mainly embodied in two aspects: the development of new energy automobiles, such as electric automobiles, has the disadvantages that the whole automobile is not provided with a vacuum booster for vacuumizing a power source, namely an engine, and is required to be externally connected with an electronic vacuum pump, and the electric energy consumption and the noise are obvious; and secondly, the development of an active safety braking technology, for example, the vehicle can identify expected danger after being matched with a radar wave or a visual sensor, and the vehicle is actively built to be braked or is emergently braked to avoid collision.
Therefore, the technology of the hydraulic brake-by-wire system is developed, and the prior art publication No. 201910331828.8 of the applicant shows a scheme of the hydraulic brake-by-wire system, as shown in FIG. 4. The scheme is composed of a driver input unit (a liquid storage tank 1, a detection valve 2, a brake pedal 3, a stroke sensor 4 and a master cylinder 5), a pedal simulator (a simulator control valve 6 and a simulator 7), a pressurization unit (a brushless motor 16, a transmission mechanism 15, a pressurization cylinder 14, pressurization control valves 12 and 13 and a pressure sensor 12), a loop control valve (an electromagnetic valve 8 and an electromagnetic valve 9), a wheel end control valve group (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24) and a controller ECU.
In the prior art, in order to generate a sufficiently fast supercharging speed during pressurization, the power and the torque of the brushless motor 16 are required to be sufficiently large and the response is fast; in addition, when the automatic driving levels are above L3 and L3, the technical scheme needs to additionally add redundant electric control braking, for example, wheel end EPB braking is adopted, or the system needs to additionally add an electric control redundant unit.
In addition, in the prior art (fig. 4), when the booster cylinder (14) continuously supplies liquid to the wheel end brakes (25, 26, 27, 28), when emergency braking enters an anti-lock brake system (ABS) function, the wheel end relief valves (21, 22, 23, 24) release the brake liquid output from the booster cylinder (14) to the reservoir tank (1). The brake fluid of the booster cylinder (14) is continuously reduced, so that the system needs to control the piston (14 b) of the booster cylinder to withdraw through the one-way valve (14 a) for fluid replacement at a proper time, and the process can cause that the anti-lock brake function (namely ABS function) of the automobile on the ice and snow road surface needs to have multiple fluid replacements.
Aiming at the characteristics of the prior art, the brake system with a redundant design is provided, the electromagnetic valve (2) in fig. 4 is cancelled through the design of the master cylinder, and the power and the torque of a single motor can be reduced and the scene requirement of an automatic driving grade above L3 can be met through the double-pressure generating device and the double-line control pressurization mode.
