All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without making any creative effort based on the embodiments in the present invention, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," and the like in the description and claims of the present invention and in the drawings described above are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used is interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the invention described herein are capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein.

Before the technical scheme is elaborated, an application scenario of the technical scheme is introduced to make the technical scheme more clearly understood. In the pure electric vehicle, a front shaft and a rear shaft of the vehicle are respectively provided with a motor, and a dog clutch is arranged between the front motor and a driving shaft and can be used for outputting and cutting off the power of the front shaft. When a clutch in a vehicle needs to be engaged and disengaged during driving of the vehicle, it is generally necessary for a vehicle controller to transmit a rotation speed control mode and a target rotation speed to a motor controller, so that the clutch is engaged with a front axle motor after the motor reaches the target rotation speed, and then transmit a torque control mode and a target control torque to the motor controller after the engagement, so that torque driving of the motor is desired. In this process, the motor control mode of the vehicle is continuously switched, and meanwhile, the communication delay between the two controllers causes the fluctuation of torque and rotating speed, thereby causing impact in the switching process. In order to solve the problems, the technical scheme can be adopted to control the clutch in the vehicle so as to enable the clutch to be quickly engaged or disengaged, and the driving requirements of the vehicle are met.

Example one

Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a clutch control method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the present embodiment is applicable to a case where a clutch of an electric vehicle is controlled to engage and disengage, and the method may be executed by a clutch control device, where the clutch control device may be implemented in a form of hardware and/or software, and the clutch control device may be configured in a computing device that may execute the clutch control method.

As shown in fig. 1, the method includes:

and S110, determining the motor driving torque corresponding to the target vehicle.

The target vehicle is a vehicle that needs to adjust and control the clutch, and the technical solution is described by way of example only, and the vehicle is not limited, and the target vehicle may be a pure electric vehicle. In the technical scheme, the motor driving torque can be understood as the driving torque output to the vehicle based on the front motor of the target vehicle.

Specifically, the motor drive torque of the target vehicle may be determined by the current vehicle speed and the accelerator pedal opening degree. Optionally, obtaining information to be used of the target vehicle; based on the target map, a motor drive torque corresponding to the information to be used is determined.

The information to be used comprises the opening degree of an accelerator pedal and the current speed of the target vehicle. The target mapping table comprises at least one piece of information to be matched and motor driving torque corresponding to each piece of information to be matched. The information to be matched can be understood as information to be used recorded in the target mapping table, and each information to be matched comprises an accelerator pedal opening degree and vehicle speed information, namely, the accelerator pedal and the vehicle speed information are combined to obtain the information to be matched.

Specifically, a target mapping table is preset, and at least one piece of information to be matched and a motor driving torque corresponding to each piece of information to be matched are recorded in the target mapping table. In other words, different accelerator pedal opening degrees and vehicle speed information are combined, and the motor driving torque corresponding to different combinations is different. After the opening degree of an accelerator pedal and the current speed corresponding to the target vehicle at the current moment are obtained, the target mapping table is inquired, and the motor driving torque corresponding to the opening degree of the accelerator pedal and the current speed at the current moment is determined to be the motor driving torque of the target vehicle. Note that the motor drive torque here is a motor drive torque determined in accordance with actual conditions.

And S120, determining a pending mode corresponding to the to-be-adjusted clutch in the target vehicle based on the motor driving torque.

The oncoming clutch may be understood to be a clutch in the target vehicle, for example, a dog clutch. The pending mode includes a clutch engagement mode or a clutch disengagement mode.

Specifically, the method for processing the clutch to be adjusted is different according to different motor driving torques of the target vehicle, so that the motor driving torque needs to be judged, and when the motor driving torque meets a certain judgment condition, the clutch to be adjusted adopts a response waiting processing method.

For example, different torque thresholds may be set, and the magnitude relationship between the motor driving torque and the torque threshold may be determined, and if the motor driving torque is greater than the torque threshold, the clutch engagement processing mode may be adopted, and if the motor driving torque threshold is less than the torque threshold, the clutch disengagement processing mode may be adopted.

Optionally, the pending mode is a clutch engagement processing mode, and the determining of the pending mode corresponding to the to-be-adjusted clutch in the target vehicle based on the motor driving torque includes: if the motor driving torque is larger than the upper limit driving torque, determining a target driving torque corresponding to the front axle motor; adjusting the wheel speed of the target vehicle based on the target driving torque until the wheel speed reaches the target speed; and a clutch engagement mode corresponding to the clutch to be adjusted is obtained, and the clutch to be adjusted and the front axle motor are engaged according to the clutch engagement mode.

In the technical scheme, in order to better control the clutch to be adjusted, an upper limit driving torque and a lower limit driving torque can be set as torque thresholds of the motor driving torque. The upper limit driving torque may be understood as a highest threshold value of the preset motor driving torque, and the lower limit driving torque may be understood as a lowest threshold value of the preset motor driving torque. The target drive torque may be understood as a motor drive torque output based on a front axle motor of the target vehicle for controlling the target vehicle to travel according to the target drive torque. The target rotational speed may be understood as the desired rotation to be achieved by the wheels of the target vehicle. The clutch engagement mode can be understood as a process mode for connecting the clutch to be adjusted with the front axle motor.

It should be noted that the upper limit driving torque and the lower limit driving torque are not fixed values, and may be customized by a developer of the vehicle in a development stage, for example, different vehicle models or differently configured vehicles may adopt different upper limit driving torques and lower limit driving torques. When the motor driving torque is larger than the upper limit driving torque, a clutch connection processing mode is adopted, and when the motor driving torque is smaller than the lower limit driving torque, a clutch disconnection processing mode is adopted.

Specifically, the motor driving torque of the target vehicle is obtained, and if the motor driving torque is greater than the upper limit driving torque, the target driving torque corresponding to the front axle motor needs to be determined according to the motor driving torque, and the specific determination process is described in detail in embodiment two below. After the target driving torque is determined, the target torque is sent to the motor controller, so that the motor controller controls the front axle motor to adjust the wheel rotating speed of the target vehicle to the target rotating speed according to the target torque. And after the wheel rotating speed reaches the target rotating speed, a clutch engaging mode corresponding to the clutch to be adjusted is adjusted, so that the clutch to be adjusted is connected with a front axle motor of the target vehicle, and clutch engaging processing is carried out.

For example, when the wheel speed of the target vehicle does not reach the target speed, the clutch to be adjusted of the target vehicle is in a disengaged state, namely, a two-drive driving mode, and the motor driving torque is provided for the target vehicle only by the rear axle motor. When the wheel rotating speed of the target vehicle reaches the target rotating speed, the to-be-adjusted clutch is connected with the front axle motor based on a clutch connection mode, the target vehicle is adjusted from a two-wheel drive mode to a four-wheel drive mode, and the front axle motor and the rear axle motor of the target vehicle jointly provide motor drive torque for the target vehicle.

Optionally, the waiting mode is a clutch release mode, and the method further includes: if the motor driving torque is smaller than the lower limit driving torque, adjusting the driving torque to be used to a preset driving torque so as to transfer the front engine torque of the front axle motor to the rear axle motor, so that the rear axle motor can combine the front engine torque with the rear axle torque of the rear axle motor; and a clutch separation mode corresponding to the clutch to be regulated is obtained, and the clutch to be regulated and the front axle motor are separated based on the clutch separation mode.

The drive torque to be used is understood to be a feed-forward torque of the target vehicle, i.e. a motor torque determined by a feed-forward control system of the target vehicle as a function of the torque or a change in a given torque. The preset drive torque may be set to 0.

Specifically, when the motor driving torque is smaller than the lower limit driving torque, the clutch to be adjusted and the front axle motor need to be separated. Before the separation processing, the front engine torque of the front axle motor needs to be gradually reduced to the preset driving torque, and the reduction is gradually transferred to the rear axle motor in the process, so that the total torque value of the front engine torque and the rear engine torque of the target vehicle is ensured to be unchanged in the torque transfer process. After the front engine torque is completely transferred to the rear axle motor, a clutch separation mode corresponding to the clutch to be regulated is called, so that the clutch to be regulated and the front axle motor are separated.

And S130, based on the to-be-processed mode, axially moving the to-be-processed clutch until the clutch state between the to-be-processed clutch and a front axle motor of the target vehicle is a target clutch state.

Wherein the target clutch state includes a disengaged state or an engaged state.

Specifically, after the to-be-processed mode corresponding to the to-be-adjusted clutch is determined, the to-be-adjusted clutch is moved axially, so that the clutch state between the to-be-adjusted clutch and the front axle motor is adjusted until the clutch state is the target clutch state.

Optionally, based on the pending mode, the method includes axially moving the clutch to be adjusted until the clutch state of the clutch to be adjusted is the target clutch state: and sending a clutch control instruction to a control system of the target vehicle so that the control system controls the clutch to be adjusted to axially move according to the clutch control instruction until the clutch state of the clutch to be adjusted is the target clutch state.

The clutch control command can be understood as a command for axially adjusting the clutch to be adjusted, and the clutch control command can be a clutch release command or a clutch engagement command.

Specifically, according to different waiting modes, corresponding clutch control instructions are sent to a controller system of the target vehicle, so that the controller system controls the clutch to be adjusted to axially move according to the clutch control instructions until the clutch state is the target clutch state.

Illustratively, taking the case where the oncoming clutch is a dog clutch as an example, when the oncoming clutch is a clutch engagement processing mode, a clutch engagement command is sent to the controller system to control the driving ring gear and the driven gear of the oncoming clutch to be combined based on the controller system, i.e., to bring the driving ring gear and the driven gear of the dog clutch into full mesh to combine the motor drive torques output from the front-axle motor and the rear-axle motor.

Illustratively, when the pending mode is a clutch disengagement mode, a clutch disengagement command is sent to the controller system to control disengagement of the driving ring gear and the driven gear of the on-coming clutch, i.e., to disengage the driving ring gear and the driven gear of the dog clutch, based on the controller system, to cut off the output of the motor torque of the front axle motor.

The advantage that sets up like this lies in, only needs to send the controller system according to the pending mode of the clutch of target vehicle, and the controller system can be according to the pending mode and to treat that the clutch of adjusting carries out the axial adjustment, need not carry out a lot of to the motor mode and switch over.

According to the technical scheme, the motor driving torque corresponding to the target vehicle is determined, the information to be used corresponding to the target vehicle, namely the opening degree of an accelerator pedal and the current vehicle speed of the target vehicle, is obtained, and the motor driving torque corresponding to the information to be used is inquired in the target mapping table. Determining a pending mode corresponding to a to-be-adjusted clutch in the target vehicle based on the motor driving torque, determining the pending mode as a clutch engagement processing mode when the motor driving torque is greater than an upper limit driving torque, and determining the pending mode as a clutch disengagement processing mode when the motor driving torque is less than a lower limit driving torque. And based on the waiting mode, axially moving the clutch to be adjusted until the clutch state between the clutch to be adjusted and the front axle motor of the target vehicle is the target clutch state, and sending a clutch control instruction to a control system of the target vehicle so that the control system controls the clutch to be adjusted to axially move according to the clutch control instruction until the clutch state of the clutch to be adjusted is the target clutch state. The problem of need motor mode switching many times when controlling the clutch, and can't accurately control the joint and the separation of clutch is solved, get accurate the effect of controlling the joint and the separation of clutch.

The vehicle speed and torque information table comprises at least one piece of vehicle speed information and motor driving torque corresponding to each piece of vehicle speed information. The actual rotational speed can be understood as the rotational speed of the wheels of the target vehicle at the present time. The drive torque to be determined may be understood as a drive torque determined on the basis of the target rotational speed and the actual rotational speed.

Specifically, the current speed information of the target vehicle is collected based on a speed collector in the target vehicle, and the motor driving torque matched with the current speed information is inquired in a speed and torque information table and is used as the driving torque to be used. When determining the driving torque to be determined according to the target rotating speed and the actual rotating speed of the target vehicle, optionally, determining the rotating speed to be used of the target vehicle according to the average value of the rotating speed of the front wheels and the rotating speed of the rear wheels of the target vehicle; determining the predicted rotating speed of the target vehicle according to the current vehicle speed and the current acceleration of the target vehicle; determining a target rotating speed corresponding to the target vehicle based on the sum of the rotating speed to be used and the predicted rotating speed; and acquiring the actual rotating speed of the target vehicle, and processing the target rotating speed and the actual rotating speed based on the torque determination function to obtain the driving torque to be determined corresponding to the front axle motor. Further, the driving torque to be used and the driving torque to be determined are superposed, so that a target driving torque corresponding to the front axle motor can be obtained.

Wherein the torque determination function may be a PID control function, and the torque determination function may be represented by the following formula:

where T _ pi represents a driving torque to be determined, p represents a preset constant, V _ act represents an actual rotation speed, and V _ target represents a target rotation speed.

And S230, adjusting the wheel rotating speed of the target vehicle based on the target driving torque until the wheel rotating speed reaches the target rotating speed.

And S240, a clutch engagement mode corresponding to the clutch to be adjusted is called, and the clutch to be adjusted and the front axle motor are engaged according to the clutch engagement mode.

And S250, axially moving the clutch to be adjusted based on the to-be-processed mode until the clutch state between the to-be-adjusted clutch and the front axle motor of the target vehicle is the target clutch state.

Specifically, the vehicle speed information of the target vehicle is collected based on the vehicle speed collector, and the motor driving torque corresponding to the vehicle speed information is inquired in the vehicle speed and torque information table and is used as the feedforward torque (i.e., the driving torque to be used). Wherein the higher the vehicle speed, the greater the feed forward torque. Meanwhile, the left front wheel transition and the right front wheel rotation speed of the target vehicle are acquired, and the average rotation speed (i.e., the rotation speed to be used) is obtained based on the two rotation speeds. Further, the actual rotating speed and the current acceleration of the target vehicle are obtained, the matched predicted rotating speed is determined through table lookup, and the target rotating speed corresponding to the target vehicle is obtained based on the sum of the rotating speed to be used and the predicted rotating speed.

When the motor drive torque is less than the lower limit drive torque, it is determined that a dog clutch (i.e., an oncoming clutch) in the target vehicle is clutch-disengaged from the front axle motor. Before the separation process is performed, the motor torque of the front axle motor (i.e., the driving torque to be used) of the target vehicle is adjusted to the preset driving torque, for example, the driving torque to be used is gradually decreased to 0. The reduction amount is gradually transferred to the rear axle motor in the process, so that the total torque value of the front engine torque and the rear engine torque of the target vehicle is kept unchanged in the torque transfer process.
