Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of shift control that between the gear (gear section) of automatic transmission, switches by actuator.
Background technique
Known a kind of like this shift control, described shift control is according to the operate in gear that electrical control under switch automatic transmission of driver to shift level.As a kind of like this shift control, a kind of system has been proposed, described system before the deenergization in nonvolatile memory the storage pivotal position of actuator and the gear of automatic transmission, thereby but the absolute position (for example referring to Japanese patent laid-open No.2002-323127) of known actuators when after the outage of stopping, connecting power once more.Also proposed the system that a kind of employing electronics line passes gear shift (shift-by-wire), described system uses expression to be used for accurately locating the potentiometric numerical value (for example seeing Japanese patent laid-open No.2002-349702) of driven quantity of the actuator of hand control valve.
It is known precondition that Japanese patent laid-open No.2002-323127 and No.2002-349702 have the absolute position.Therefore, if the acquired information relevant with actuator position only is the relative quantity of the rotor-position change of detection from encoder output, just can not suitably control actuator.Therefore, the rotation of actuator applies some loads on shift-position changing mechanism, causes the durability (working life) of shift-position changing mechanism to reduce.If design shift-position changing mechanism for the purpose that improves durability, shift-position changing mechanism will increase size and cost.
Japanese patent laid-open No.2002-310294 discloses a kind of gear switching device of automatic transmission, and described device has easy-to-install actuator and can accurately carry out switching between the gear.Gear switching device comprises: be used for the gear switch of the automatic transmission shift-position changing mechanism to a gear of each forward gears that comprises park; Be used as the actuator of the power source of shift-position changing mechanism; Control circuit, thus this control circuit is used for the control gear gear corresponding with this switching command being arrived in the gear switch of automatic transmission according to the switching command drive actuator via the peripheral operation input; And testing circuit, this testing circuit is used to detect the gear of automatic transmission so that carry testing signal to control circuit.Described control circuit is set the reference value of gear of automatic transmission so that based on described reference value control actuator according to the testing signal of testing circuit.
Thereby the gear switching device of disclosed automatic transmission arrives with this switching command corresponding gear with the gear of controlling automatic transmission with described gear switch according to the switching command drive actuator via the peripheral operation input among the Japanese patent laid-open No.2002-310294.Set the reference value of the gear of automatic transmission according to the testing signal of the testing circuit of the gear that is used to detect automatic transmission, and control described actuator based on described reference value.Therefore, no matter location accuracy that gear switching device is installed and the difference between each actuator do not need control actuator to be installed in the step of the angle on the automatic transmission, therefore, simplified the installation of actuator on automatic transmission.Like this, the installation and maintenance of actuator is simplified and can accurately switches by driving this shift-position changing mechanism the gear of automatic transmission.
Although the gear switching device of disclosed automatic transmission has the advantage of the installation and maintenance of simplifying actuator among the Japanese patent laid-open No.2002-310294, this gear switching device need calculate the count value at the center of each gear of expression by the count value with reference to the counter of the output signal of the testing circuit (neutral gear switch starter) that comes from the gear that is used to detect automatic transmission.Based on the reference value that the count value according to each gear of expression sets, the control actuator.Therefore, no matter the difference between each actuator does not need control actuator to be installed in the step of the angle on the automatic transmission, thereby simplifies the installation of actuator on automatic transmission.Therefore, the neutral gear switch starter is absolutely necessary, thereby causes the problem of weight and cost increase owing to the existence of neutral switch.

Described set positions unit set described actuator based on the amounts of rotation of described actuator between described predetermined gear and another gear different with described predetermined gear with the corresponding reference position of described another gear.Like this, can use that described amounts of rotation easily sets described actuator with the corresponding reference position of described another gear.
When described shift component will be scheduled to gear switch when another gear, described set positions unit can set described actuator with the corresponding reference position of described another gear.Like this, can when switching described gear, set described actuator effectively with the corresponding reference position of described another gear.
Described set positions unit can set described actuator in a predetermined timing with the corresponding reference position of described another gear so that the timeliness of described shift component of revisal or limiting part changes.Described predetermined timing is meant, for example, and the timing when timing when switching the gear pre-determined number or the vehicle that this shift control is installed on it carry out the stroke of pre-determined number.Like this, but any timeliness of revisal change so that accurately set two reference positions.At this, one stroke can be described as opening the cycle of throttle to its actual parking from the cycle that is switched to its disconnection of vehicle electrical power switch or vehicle.
Described set positions unit can detect the amounts of rotation of described actuator based on the reference position corresponding with described predetermined gear with the corresponding reference position of described another gear.Like this, draw amounts of rotation and when stroke subsequently, can detect the reference position that is used for a gear of actuator so that easily detect the reference position that is used for another gear of actuator.

Described rotation control unit can drive the amounts of rotation that described shift component is regulated described actuator by rotating described actuator when switching described gear, so that described actuator reaches described target pivotal position.
According to another aspect of the present invention, a kind of gear-shifting control method that switches gear by actuator comprises the following steps: to rotate the gearshift that is used to switch gear by described actuator; By being used for limiting described actuator stops described actuator along the restricting means of predetermined direction rotation at a predetermined gear rotation; Based on realizing described position probing that stops and the corresponding reference position of described predetermined gear; And the target pivotal position when determining by described actuator switching gear based on described reference position.By above-mentioned gear-shifting control method, utilize limiting part to stop the rotation of described actuator, based on the reference position of the position probing actuator of realizing stopping, thereby and can determine the target pivotal position based on described reference position.Therefore, can suitably control actuator to arrive the target pivotal position and can use described shift component suitably to switch gear.
According to another aspect of the present invention, a kind of gear switching device that is installed in the automatic transmission of vehicle comprises: the gearshift that is used for by rotational actuator shift pattern being switched to a shift pattern of a plurality of shift patterns; Be used to store the storage device of the described shift pattern that the switching by described gearshift reaches; Be used for first restricting means that the described actuator of restriction rotates along a predetermined direction in first shift pattern of described a plurality of shift patterns; And the control gear that is used to control the rotation of described actuator.Described control gear comprises: be used for set positions that will be stopped by described first restricting means described actuator rotates and be the primary importance setting device in first reference position of described first shift pattern; Be used for allowing supplying with cut power control at the feasible electric power of described gear switching device of giving of described first gear; And reference position setting device once more, when this reference position setting device is used for beginning the electric power supply once more after the described cut-out that electric power is supplied with, under the described shift pattern condition of unknown in being stored in described storage device, set described first reference position of setting by described primary importance setting device once more.
Ignition switch (that is, being used for the switch to the electronic equipment supply electric power of the vehicle that comprises gear switching device) in order to cut off vehicle must switch to shift pattern first shift pattern (for example P shelves).Afterwards, when cut ignition switch was connected once more, described shift pattern must be first shift pattern.At this, the rotatory force of actuator that is used to detect first reference position (for example, with the corresponding P wall of P shelves position) that the initial stage (initially) is in first shift pattern is in the rotatory force of actuator that is used to detect first reference position of non-P shelves less than the initial stage.Therefore, when the initial stage shift pattern is first shift pattern and first reference position when detected, the load on first limiting part (the stop shell fragment that for example, engages with check plate) is less.In other words, when being first shift pattern, the initial stage shift pattern, can avoid or reduce the distortion of stop shell fragment by setting first reference position.The durability of avoiding or reducing accurately to set the reference position of first shift pattern and improve described gear shift switching mechanism of the distortion of attainable stop shell fragment.Therefore can reduce the load on the shift-position changing mechanism.And the rotation of being controlled actuator by control unit is to switch shift pattern.For first shift pattern, actuator is limited to set the reference position by limiting part along the rotation of a predetermined direction.Therefore, do not need the neutral gear switch starter.
The gear switching device of automatic transmission also can comprise and is used in second shift pattern of described a plurality of shift patterns second restricting means that the described actuator of restriction rotates along a direction that is different from described predetermined direction.Described control gear also can comprise: second place setting device, this second place setting device be used for according to by described reference position once more setting device will be second reference position by the set positions that described second restricting means stops the rotation of described actuator to setting once more of described first reference position at described second shift pattern; And the sphere of activities computing unit, this sphere of activities computing unit is used for based on by described first reference position set once more of setting device and calculated the sphere of activities of described actuator by described second reference position that described second place setting device is set once more, described reference position.
Like this, after first reference position of setting first shift pattern, set second reference position (for example, non-P shelves) of second shift pattern.Based on first and second reference positions that set, calculate the sphere of activities of described actuator.Therefore thereby can detect first reference position when the initial stage shift pattern is first shift pattern can set first reference position more accurately.Therefore, computational activity scope and can reduce load on the shift component more accurately.
Described control gear also can comprise definite device, this determine device based on by described reference position once more setting device described first reference position set once more determine the first target pivotal position that when described actuator switches to shift pattern described first gear, will reach.
Like this, after first reference position of setting first shift pattern, determine the first target pivotal position of first shift pattern based on first reference position.Therefore thereby can detect first reference position when the initial stage shift pattern is first shift pattern can set first reference position more accurately.Therefore, can determine the first target pivotal position and can reduce load on the shift component more accurately.
The gear switching device of automatic transmission also can comprise and is used in second shift pattern of described a plurality of shift patterns second restricting means that the described actuator of restriction rotates along a direction that is different from described predetermined direction.Described control gear also comprises second place setting device, described second place setting device be used for according to by described reference position once more setting device will be second reference position by the set positions that described second restricting means stops the rotation of described actuator to setting once more of described first reference position at described second shift pattern, and definite device, this determines that device is used for determining the second target pivotal position that will reach based on described second reference position when described actuator switches to shift pattern described second gear.
Like this, after first reference position of setting first shift pattern, set second reference position of second shift pattern.Determine the second target pivotal position based on second reference position that sets.Therefore can determine second pivotal position more accurately and can reduce load on the shift component.
The gear switching device of automatic transmission also can comprise the counting unit that is used for drawing according to the amounts of rotation of described actuator count value.Described position setting device comprises the reference position setting device, and this reference position setting device is used for being in the reference position that the minimum value of wherein said count value or state that maximum value remains unchanged at a predetermined period are set described actuator by detecting the described count value that is drawn by described counting unit.
Described counting unit (for example, encoder) draws the amounts of rotation of described actuator.Based on the state that minimum value or maximum value remain unchanged in a predetermined period, set and the corresponding reference position of each shift pattern.Therefore, even described counting unit is the encoder that only can obtain relative position information, also can suitably control the rotation of actuator according to described reference position.In addition, can reduce the load that is applied when actuator rotates and can suitably switch shift pattern by described shift component.And, owing to do not need for example to be used to detect the potentiometer of absolute position, therefore can reduce cost.
Described first limiting part can limit described actuator and limit the rotation of described actuator along predetermined direction along the mode that stop shell fragment shrinkage direction rotates.
By being provided for limiting first limiting part (for example P wall of check plate) of described actuator along the mode that stop shell fragment shrinkage direction rotates, can be that first shift pattern is set the reference position based on the P wall along the rotation of described predetermined direction to limit described actuator.In other words, needn't set the reference position based on the count value of each shift pattern of institute's reference under the situation that is used as the neutral switch that detects shift pattern at described testing circuit.Therefore, do not need neutral switch can set the reference position of the actuator that is used for first shift pattern yet.
Described first limiting part limits described actuator in the mode that limits described actuator and rotate along stop shell fragment shrinkage direction and rotates along described predetermined direction, and described second limiting part is upheld the mode that direction rotates along described stop shell fragment and limited described actuator along the direction rotation different with described predetermined direction to limit described actuator.
For first shift pattern, be provided with and be used for so that the mode that the stop shell fragment shrinks limits first limiting part (for example P wall of check plate) of described actuator along the rotation of predetermined direction.For second shift pattern, be provided with and be used for so that the mode that the stop shell fragment is upheld limits second limiting part (for example non-P wall of check plate) of described actuator along the rotation of the direction relative with predetermined direction.Afterwards,, the reference position of first shift pattern can be set, and, the reference position of second shift pattern can be set based on second limiting part based on first limiting part.In other words, needn't set the reference position based on the count value of each shift pattern of institute's reference under the situation that is used as the neutral switch that detects shift pattern at described testing circuit.Therefore, do not need neutral switch can set the reference position of the actuator that is used for first shift pattern yet.
Described first shift pattern can be by driving the P shelves that described actuator makes stop mechanism work, and described second shift pattern can be the non-P shelves that stop described stop mechanism work.
Thereby first shift pattern be the P shelves.Afterwards, power supply is cut off when shift pattern is the P shelves.In other words, during by normal cutoff, shift pattern must be the P shelves when connecting power supply once more at power supply.Therefore, corresponding to the P wall position of P shelves when detected, can always detect the P shelves is primary position.

Embodiment
Hereinafter embodiments of the invention will be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.In the following description, represent similar parts, and similar parts has identical name and has identical functions with similar reference character.Therefore, will not repeat its detailed description.It should be noted that term " gear " and " shift pattern " are used interchangeably.
First embodiment
Fig. 1 illustrates the structure of the related shift control of first embodiment 10.This embodiment's shift control 10 is used to switch the gear of vehicle.Shift control 10 comprises P switch 20, Gear-shift switch 26, vehicle power supply switch 28, control unit for vehicle (being referred to as " V-ECU " hereinafter) 30, parking control unit (being referred to as " P-ECU " hereinafter) 40, actuator 42, encoder 46, shift control mechanism 48, display unit 50, instrument 52 and driving mechanism 60.Shift control 10 is as the system that passes gear shift at the employing electronics line of electrical control incision gear shift position.Specifically, shift control mechanism 48 is driven to switch gear by actuator 42.
Vehicle power supply switch 28 is the switches that are used to connect and cut off the power supply of vehicle.Vehicle power supply switch 28 is unqualified to be concrete one, but for example also can be ignition switch.By vehicle power supply switch 28 receive come from the user for example driver's instruction be transferred to V-ECU30.For example, in response to the connection of vehicle power supply switch 28, supply electric power is to handle shift control 10 from the boosting battery (not shown).
The operation of P-ECU40 control actuator 42, described actuator 42 drive shift control mechanisms 48 so that change gear between P shelves and the non-P shelves, and P-ECU40 illustrates the current state of gear on indicator 22.If when gear when being non-P shelves the driver press input unit 24, P-ECU40 illustrates current gear with gear switch to the P shelves and on indicator 22 be the P shelves.
Actuator 42 is made of switched reluctance machines (below be called " SR motor "), and drives shift control mechanism 48 in response to the instruction that P-ECU40 sends.Encoder 46 rotates with actuator 42, to detect the rotary state of SR motor.This embodiment's encoder 46 is the rotary encoder of output A phase, B phase and Z phase signals.P-ECU40 receives from the signal of encoder 46 outputs, and knowing the rotary state of SR motor, thereby control is used to drive the excitation of SR motor.
Gear-shift switch 26 arrives for example forward gears (D), reverse gear (R), neutral gear (N) and braking shelves (B) for being used for gear switch, or removes the switch of P shelves when selecting the P shelves.Gear-shift switch 26 is passed to V-ECU30 after receiving the instruction that the driver sends.According to the instruction that the driver sends, V-ECU30 controlling and driving mechanism 60 changes gear and the current state of gear is shown on instrument 52.Although driving mechanism 60 here is made of stepless speed changing mechanism, driving mechanism also can be made of automatic transmission.
The operation of V-ECU30 The whole control shift control 10.Display unit 50 for example shows the instruction or the warning of being sent by V-ECU30 or P-ECU40 to the driver.Instrument 52 illustrates the state of equipment of vehicle and the state of for example gear.
Fig. 2 illustrates the structure of shift control mechanism 48.In the following description, " gear " refers to P shelves or non-P shelves, do not comprise R, N, D and B shelves in the non-P shelves.The check plate 100 that shift control mechanism 48 comprises the axle 102 that rotated by actuator 42, rotate with the rotation of axle 102, the bar 104 of working according to the rotation of check plate 100, be fixed on the speed changer (not shown) output shaft on the parking locking lever 106 of parking spreadet spreadet wheel 108, locking parking spreadet spreadet wheel 108 and the rotation of restriction check plate 100 with the stop shell fragment 110 and the roller 112 of static stall.Check plate 100 is as the gearshift that is driven, switched gear by actuator 42.Axle 102, check plate 100, bar 104, stop shell fragment 110 and roller 112 are as the gear shift switching mechanism.In addition, encoder 46 is as the counting device that draws count value according to the amounts of rotation of actuator 42.
The current state that Fig. 2 illustrates gear is non-P shelves.Under this state, because parking locking lever 106 locking parking spreadet spreadet wheel 108 not, can't prevent that therefore vehicle drive shaft from rotating.From this state, actuator 42 clockwise rotates axle 102, thereby through check plate 100 catch bar 104 on the direction shown in the arrow A in Fig. 2, therefore upwards promotes parking locking lever 106 shown in the arrow B on the direction by the conus portion on bar 104 1 ends in Fig. 2.Along with the rotation of check plate 100, stop shell fragment 110 be arranged in one of check plate 100 top upper grooves, promptly be arranged in non-P gear and put and drop to another groove after roller 112 on 120 gets over summit 122, promptly the P gear puts 124.Roller 112 is arranged to roller and can be rotated in the axial direction on stop shell fragment 110.Allow that when check plate 100 turns to roller 112 moves to the P gear when putting 124 degree, parking locking lever 106 is pushed upwardly bar 106 and parking spreadet spreadet wheel 108 position engaged.Like this, the live axle of vehicle obtains mechanical fixation, and gear switch is to the P shelves.
In order when switching gear, to reduce to act on the load on the gear shift switching mechanism that comprises for example check plate 100, stop shell fragment 110 and axle 102, the amounts of rotation of this embodiment's shift control 10 control actuators 42, thus P-ECU40 alleviates the impact that occurs when roller 112 at stop shell fragment 110 gets over summit 122 and falls then.
Fig. 3 illustrates the structure of check plate 100.Each groove from two surfaces of this bottom portion of groove elongation, be called " wall " away from that surface of summit 122.In other words, wall is on such position, if P-ECU40 does not carry out hereinafter described control when the roller 112 that gets over summit 122 drops to bottom portion of groove, this wall will collide the roller 112 of stop shell fragment 110.The P gear is put 124 wall and is called " P wall ", and non-P gear is put 120 wall and is called " non-P wall ".Put 124 when roller 112 from the P gear and move to non-P gear when putting 120, P-ECU40 controls actuator 42, makes non-P wall 210 not collide roller 112.Specifically, P-ECU40 makes non-P wall 210 be about to collide the rotation that stops actuator 42 on the position that stops before the roller 112 at one.This position is called " non-P target pivotal position ".In addition, put 120 when roller 112 from non-P gear and move to the P gear when putting 124, P-ECU40 controls actuator 42, makes P wall 200 not collide roller 112.Specifically, P-ECU40 makes P wall 200 be about to collide the rotation that stops actuator 42 on the position that stops before the roller 112 at one.This position is called " P target pivotal position ".Under the control of P-ECU40 to actuator 42, the load that acts on when switching gear on the gear shift switching mechanism that comprises for example check plate 100, stop shell fragment 110 and axle 102 reduces greatly.Because this load reduces, therefore the weight of this gear shift switching mechanism and cost can reduce.In the present embodiment, the control of hereinafter describing can further reduce the weight and the cost of this gear shift switching mechanism.
Fig. 4 illustrates a kind of method of controlling actuator 42.Actuator 42 pivot stop plates 100.The rotation of actuator 42 is subjected to the restriction of P wall 200 and non-P wall 210.In Fig. 4, the position of P wall 200 of rotation of control actuator 42 and the position of non-P wall 210 are shown conceptually.Zone between " P wall position " and " non-P wall position " is called actuator 42 " rotatable amount ".Rotatable amount comprises " the actual rotatable amount " determined by the count value of encoder 46 and " the rotatable amount of design " determined by design.
When the amounts of rotation of actuator 42 in P wall position or non-P wall position and one and P or non-P wall position at a distance of in the zone between the position of predetermined amounts of rotation the time, discern current gear.According to P locked position (below be called " P locking determine position ") with remove position (below be called " P removes and determines the position ") according to P and determine this gear.Zone between P wall position and the definite position of P locking and non-P wall position and P releasing determine that the zone between the position is called gear and determines to distinguish.Specifically, when the amounts of rotation of the actuator 42 that is detected by encoder 46 is in the zone between P wall position and the definite position of P locking, determine that current gear is the P shelves.On the other hand, if the amounts of rotation of actuator 42 is removed in the zone of determining between the position in non-P wall position and P, determine that then current gear is non-P shelves.In addition, if the amounts of rotation of actuator 42 in the zone, is determined that then gear is indefinite or is being switched gear between definite position of P locking and the definite position of P releasing.Above-mentioned definite (judgement) made by P-ECU40.
P target pivotal position is set in P wall position and the P locking is determined between the position.P target pivotal position is with to make the P wall not collide the position of roller 112 of stop shell fragment 110 when non-P shelves switch to the P shelves corresponding, and sets distance P wall position for predetermined surplus (nargin) is arranged.The setting of this surplus is considered by for example timeliness (for a long time) and is changed the play that causes.Like this, this timeliness changes and can be absorbed, and uses certain number of times up to this system, and P wall 200 collides rollers 112 can prevent gear switch the time.
Equally, non-P target pivotal position is set in non-P wall position and P and removes and determine between the position.It is corresponding that non-P target pivotal position makes when switching to non-P shelves at the P shelves non-P wall 210 not collide the position of roller 112 of stop shell fragment 110, and set the non-P wall of distance position for predetermined surplus is arranged.The setting of this surplus is considered by for example timeliness and is changed the play that causes.Like this, this timeliness changes and can be absorbed, and uses certain number of times up to this system, and non-P wall 210 collides rollers 112 can prevent gear switch the time.Needn't equate the difference of the shape of visual for example check plate 100 and difference with surplus from P wall position from the surplus of non-P wall position.
More than the controlling method of actuator 42 has been described under the prerequisite that detects P wall position and non-P wall position.P wall position and non-P wall position respectively as define the zone that is used for determining gear and definite P gear put 124 or non-P gear put the reference position of 120 target pivotal position.The following describes a kind of method of using the encoder 46 that detects relative position information to control the position of actuator 42, definitely say the method for a kind of detection as the wall position of reference position.
P-ECU40 or V-ECU30 store the gear of selecting when cutting off vehicle power supply switch 28 last time.When connecting vehicle power supply switch 28, P-ECU40 is made as current gear with the gear of being stored then.Detect the wall position of current gear with the wall position detection control.If do not store gear last time, V-ECU30 determines (judgement) current gear according to the speed of a motor vehicle.Specifically, if the speed of a motor vehicle is the low speed of maximum 3km/h, V-ECU30 determines that current gear is the P shelves, if the speed of a motor vehicle is that higher than 3km/h middling speed-at a high speed, V-ECU30 determines that current gear is non-P shelves.If do not store last time gear and the speed of a motor vehicle be middling speed-at a high speed, the state of this state loss of data of insantaneous break power supply, current gear during with vehicle driving is corresponding.But in most of the cases, the speed of a motor vehicle is a low speed when determining 28 connections of vehicle power supply switch, thereby determines that current gear is the P shelves.
Fig. 5 A illustrates the controlling method of a kind of P of detection wall position.P-ECU40 is the position setting device of reference position as the control device for pivoting of rotational actuator 42 and the P wall position of setting actuator 42.According to this controlling method that detects P wall position, actuator 42 promptly moves, makes the direction pivot stop plate 100 of P wall 200 contact rollers 112 clockwise to the roller 112 of stop shell fragment 110 along P wall 200.Be used as the restricting means that limiting actuator 42 clockwise rotates at the locational P wall 200 of P shelves.P wall 200 can cooperate this restricting means of formation with stop shell fragment 110 and roller 112.In Fig. 5 A, arrow F1 represents the rotatory force of actuator 42, and arrow F2 represents the elastic force of stop shell fragment 110, the power that pushes back of arrow F3 indication rod 104.Dotted line is represented the position of check plate 100 ' when P wall 200 and roller 112 are in contact with one another.Therefore to check plate 100 ' position probing corresponding to position probing to P wall 200.
Even after P wall 200 and roller 112 were in contact with one another, check plate 100 was also clockwise rotated from the elastic force that position shown in the dotted line overcomes stop shell fragment 110 by the rotatory force F1 of actuator 42.Therefore, 110 bendings of stop shell fragment are to improve the power that the pushes back F3 of elastic force F2 and bar 104.As rotatory force F1 and elastic force F2 with when pushing back power F3 balance, check plate 100 stops operating.State according to the count value that is drawn by encoder 46 determines whether (judgement) check plate 100 stops operating.If the minimum value of the count value of encoder 46 or maximum value remain unchanged in a predetermined period, P-ECU40 determines that the rotation of check plate 100 and actuator 42 stops.The monitoring maximum count value still is that the least count value is decided by encoder 46.Which kind of situation no matter, maximum value or minimum value remain unchanged in a predetermined period and just mean that check plate 100 stops operating, thus transfixion.The position that P-ECU40 detects check plate 100 when stopping, with this position as " interim P wall position ", and calculate the amount of bow or the bending angle of stop shell fragment 110.Use the figure be stored in expression amount of bow or the bending angle among the P-ECU40 in advance and be applied to the relation between the voltage on the actuator 42 to calculate amount of bow or bending angle.From this figure, P-ECU40 when detecting interim P wall position, calculate be applied to actuator 42 on corresponding amount of bow or the bending angle of voltage.This figure can use cell voltage rather than be applied to voltage on the actuator 42.Cell voltage is monitored by P-ECU40, is easy to detected.At this moment, the preparation of this figure has taken into account the voltage drop that is caused by 42 electric wiring from the battery to the actuator.P-ECU40 shines upon correction (mapping correction) with amount of bow or the bending angle calculated to interim P wall position with this figure, and the location confirmation of proofreading and correct through mapping is P wall position the most at last.Confirm to set definite position of P locking and P target pivotal position behind the P wall position.Also can not use this figure that the relation between amount of bow or bending angle and the voltage is shown, and use the figure of the relation between the output torque that amount of bow or bending angle and actuator 42 are shown.In addition, also can calculate, and use sensor to be used for detecting the amount of bow or the bending angle of wall position without this figure.
Fig. 5 B illustrates a kind of controlling method that detects non-P wall position.P-ECU40 is the position setting device of reference position as the control device for pivoting of rotational actuator 42 and the non-P wall position of setting actuator 42.According to this controlling method that detects non-P wall position, actuator 42 promptly moves so that the direction pivot stop plate 100 of non-P wall 210 contact rollers 112 along the roller 112 of non-P wall 210 to stop shell fragment 110 counterclockwise.Be used as the restricting means that limiting actuator 42 rotates counterclockwise at the locational non-P wall 210 of non-P shelves.Non-P wall 210 can cooperate this restricting means of formation with stop shell fragment 110 and roller 112.In Fig. 5 B, arrow F1 represents the rotatory force of actuator 42, and arrow F2 represents the elastic force of stop shell fragment 110, the pulling force of arrow F3 indication rod 104.Dotted line the is represented check plate 100 " position when non-P wall 210 and roller 112 are in contact with one another.Therefore, to check plate 100 " position probing corresponding to position probing to non-P wall 210.
Even after non-P wall 210 and roller 112 are in contact with one another, check plate 100 is also rotated counterclockwise from position shown in the dotted line by the pulling force that the rotatory force F1 of actuator 42 overcomes stop shell fragment 110.Therefore, 110 elongations of stop shell fragment are to improve the tensile force f 3 of elastic force F2 and bar 104.When rotatory force F1 and elastic force F2 and tensile force f 3 balances, check plate 100 stops operating.
Determine according to the count value that draws by encoder 46 whether check plate 100 stops operating.Specifically, if the minimum value of the count value of encoder 46 or maximum value remain unchanged, determine that then the rotation of check plate 100 and actuator 42 stops in a predetermined period.
The position that P-ECU40 detects check plate 100 when stopping, with this position as " interim non-P wall position ", and calculate the elongation of stop shell fragment 110.Use the figure be stored in the expression elongation among the P-ECU40 in advance and be applied to the relation between the voltage on the actuator 42 to calculate elongation.From this figure, P-ECU40 when detecting interim non-P wall position, calculate be applied to actuator 42 on the corresponding elongation of voltage.P-ECU40 shines upon correction with the elongation that calculates to interim non-P wall position with this figure, is non-P wall position with the location confirmation of proofreading and correct through mapping the most at last.Confirm to set definite position of P releasing and non-P target pivotal position behind the non-P wall position.Also can not use this figure of the relation between the voltage that elongation is shown and applies, and use the figure of the relation between the output torque that elongation and actuator 42 are shown.In addition, also can calculate, and use sensor to be used for detecting the elongation of wall position without this figure.
Like this, under control, detect the wall position of current gear to the wall position probing.If detected the rotatable amount of reality between P wall position and the non-P wall position, the wall position that the rotatable amount of available reality is calculated another gear.The wall position detection control of the wall position of one of available detection gear, the wall position detection control with the wall position of detecting another gear detects actual rotatable amount subsequently, thereby measures the zone between two wall positions being detected.The rotatable amount of the reality that the P-ECU40 storage records.In case obtain actual rotatable amount, the P-ECU40 that has detected the wall position of a gear can have the wall position from this gear actual rotatable position of measuring to be made as the wall position of another gear, but so pivotal position of target separately of definite district of P-ECU40 set position and two gears.
From the above, can the two wall positions of not detecting P shelves and non-P shelves when storage is actual to turn amount respectively at P-ECU40.For example, if during by Ex works or during the loss of data among the P-ECU40, detect two wall positions at vehicle.In addition, even stored actual rotatable amount, also can when the gear shift of carrying out pre-determined number or stroke (trip), detect two wall positions.For example, if gear switch several ten thousand times, the play amount that is caused by wearing and tearing increases, and causes the error of actual rotatable amount.At this moment, can remeasure actual rotatable amount,, thereby solve the problem that timeliness changes with detection wall position.And, can when being switched on, vehicle power supply switch 28 carry out described detection.Perhaps, under the situation of any abnormal state that for example formerly occurs actuator 42 on the stroke, can carry out the wall position detection control to calculate actual rotatable amount.
At this, the termination when one-shot that one stroke can be described as vehicle power supply switch 28 when connecting and described switch cut off, or the termination when being called the actual parking of one-shot when vehicle is actual to be started and vehicle.
Fig. 6 illustrates and uses the data that are stored on the first front travel to carry out the exemplary control of wall position probing.If the gear when first front travel is finished is the P shelves, at first detect P wall position, if detected actual rotatable amount, then do not detect non-P wall position.On the other hand, if do not know actual rotatable amount, then detect non-P wall position.When driver command detects gear switch during to non-P shelves non-P wall position.At this moment, P-ECU40 to non-P shelves, makes the roller 112 of non-P wall 210 contact stop shell fragments 110, to detect non-P wall position with gear switch.After detecting two wall positions, P-ECU40 measures actual rotatable amount and with its storage.
If the gear when first front travel is finished is non-P shelves, at first detect non-P wall position, if detected actual rotatable amount, then do not detect P wall position.On the other hand, if do not know actual rotatable amount, then detect P wall position.When arriving the P shelves with gear switch, driver command detects P wall position.P-ECU40 to the P shelves, makes the roller 112 of P wall 200 contact stop shell fragments 110 with gear switch, to detect P wall position.After detecting two wall positions, P-ECU40 measures and the actual rotatable amount of storage.
The gear the unknown when if first front travel is finished, V-ECU30 determines current gear according to the speed of a motor vehicle, to send the instruction that detects the wall position to P-ECU40.When this instruction learns that current gear is made as the P shelves, P-ECU40 at first detects P wall position, responds the shift command that the driver sends then and detects non-P wall position.On the other hand, if learn that from this instruction current gear is made as non-P shelves, P-ECU40 at first detects non-P wall position, responds the shift command detection P wall position that the driver sends then.
Fig. 7 illustrates the illustrative methods of the target pivotal position of calculating actuator 42.The count value of the example hypothesis encoder 46 among Fig. 7 is upwards counted from P wall position to non-P wall rotated position along with actuator.If detected P wall position, non-P wall position and actual rotatable amount, then P target pivotal position is made as (P wall position+surplus), and non-P target pivotal position is made as (non-P wall position-surplus).
If detected P wall position, the unknown of non-P wall position and detected actual rotatable amount, then P target pivotal position is made as (P wall position+surplus), and non-P target pivotal position is made as (P wall position+reality turns amount-surplus).If actual rotatable amount is unknown, then P target pivotal position is made as (P wall position+surplus), and non-P target pivotal position is made as (the rotatable amount of P wall position+design).At this, the rotatable amount of design is made as the certain value of taking into account surplus.If the position the unknown of P wall, non-P wall position is detected and actual rotatable amount is detected, then P target pivotal position is made as (non-P wall position-reality turns amount+surplus), and non-P target pivotal position is made as (non-P wall position-surplus).If actual rotatable amount is unknown, then P target pivotal position is made as (the rotatable amount of non-P wall position-design), and non-P target pivotal position is made as (non-P wall position-surplus).
According to another embodiment, the count value of encoder 46 can upwards be counted from non-P wall position to P wall rotated position along with actuator.At this moment, if detected non-P wall position, P wall position and actual rotatable amount, then non-P target pivotal position is made as (non-P wall position+surplus), and P target pivotal position is made as (P wall position-surplus).
If detected non-P wall position, the unknown of P wall position and detected actual rotatable amount, then non-P target pivotal position is made as (non-P wall position+surplus), and P target pivotal position is made as (non-P wall position+reality turns amount-surplus).If actual rotatable amount is unknown, then non-P target pivotal position is made as (non-P wall position+surplus), and P target pivotal position is made as (the rotatable amount of non-P wall position+design).
If non-P wall position the unknown, detected P wall position and detected actual rotatable amount, then non-P target pivotal position is made as (P wall position-reality turns amount+surplus), and P target pivotal position is made as (P wall position-surplus).If actual rotatable amount is unknown, then non-P target pivotal position is made as (the rotatable amount of P wall position-design), and P target pivotal position is made as (P wall position-surplus).
Fig. 8 illustrates the waveform of each the excitation command pulse that is added on the actuator 42.When normal switching gear, the cycle that is added to the excitation command pulse signal on the actuator 42 is long and high.When control wall position probing, the excitation command pulse signal that is added on the actuator 42 makes that output ratio when detecting the wall position of 42 unit time of actuator is little when normally switching gear.Specifically, the connection width that is added to the excitation command pulse on the actuator 42 reduces.By when controlling the wall position probing, reducing the rotating speed of actuator 42, can reduce the impact between wall and the roller 112.
Fig. 9 illustrates the flow chart with a kind of method of the 10 detection reference positions of the shift control among first embodiment.In this flow chart, the gear when supposing power connection is the P shelves.At first, the driver connects vehicle power supply switch 28 to shift control 10 power supplies (S10).Subsequently, be that actuator 42 for example carries out excitation and is complementary and carries out initial stage drive controlling (S12) to motor.Can control the rotation of actuator 42 rightly by carrying out the initial stage drive controlling.At gear is under the condition of P shelves, determines that actuator 42 makes wall collide the sense of rotation (S14) of roller.Specifically, the direction of the sense of rotation of determined actuator 42 for making P wall 200 collide the roller 112 of stop shell fragment 110.
According to the state of the count value of encoder 46, the detection of P wall position is controlled, to detect interim P wall position (S16).Proofreading and correct interim P wall position (S18) with figure, is P wall position (S20) with calibrated location confirmation.If stored actual rotatable amount (being "Yes" among the step S22), calculate non-P wall position (S24) with (the rotatable amount of P wall position+reality), and confirm non-P wall position (S26).In step S24, although the prerequisite upwards counted under calculate non-P wall position along with actuator from P wall position to non-P wall rotated position in the count value of encoder 46, count value also can upwards be counted from non-P wall position to P wall rotated position along with actuator.Under latter event, calculate non-P wall position with (the rotatable amount of P wall position-reality).
If the actual rotatable amount of storage (being "No" among the step S22) does not determine whether the driver sends the instruction (S28) of gear switch to non-P shelves.Do not continue the monitoring switching command if there is switching command (being "No" among the S28).If send switching command (being "Yes" among the S28), then switch to non-P shelves (S30) from the P shelves.
Figure 10 illustrates switching the flow chart of controlling to non-P shelves among Fig. 9 step S30.At first judge and whether confirmed non-P wall position (S50).As confirming (being "Yes" among the S50), non-P target pivotal position is made as position (S52) before, non-P wall position, actuator 42 turns to non-P target pivotal position.Like this, gear switch can not caused the roller 112 of non-P wall 210 contact stop shell fragments 110 to non-P shelves.
If non-P wall unconfirmed position (being "No" among the S50) is made as non-P target pivotal position the position (S54) that predetermined amounts of rotation is arranged towards distance P wall position, non-P wall position.The rotatable amount of available design is set non-P target pivotal position.Then, actuator 42 turns to non-P target pivotal position (S56).
Get back to Fig. 9, after the switching controls among the S30 is finished, whether judge non-P wall position unconfirmed or stroke has not been done pre-determined number (S32).Do not arrive pre-determined number (being "No" among the S32) if confirmed non-P wall position and stroke, this flow process finishes.If non-P wall position unconfirmed or stroke arrived pre-determined number (among the S32 for "Yes"), then according to the non-P wall of the state-detection position of the count value of encoder 46, to detect interim non-P wall position (S34).Proofreading and correct interim non-P wall position (S36) with described figure, is non-P wall position (S38) with calibrated wall location confirmation.At this moment, by P wall position and the actual rotatable amount of non-P wall position measurement.The rotatable amount of reality is stored among the P-ECU40, to be used on follow-up stroke, the setting wall position.
In conjunction with first embodiment the present invention has been described hereinbefore.Yet the present invention is not limited to described embodiment and its various corrections all can be effective as embodiments of the invention.For example, be P shelves and non-P shelves although above-mentioned check plate 100 has two gears, check plate also can have a plurality of gears, as D shelves and R shelves.If check plate has three or more gears, each wall position corresponding with the most external gear positions can be made as the reference position respectively, thereby correctly control the switching of gear.
Therefore the present invention can provide shift control and gear-shifting control method, and described system and method has reduced to be applied to the load on the gear shift switching mechanism when switching gear.
Second embodiment
According to aforesaid first embodiment, shift control 10 rotational actuators 42 so that the roller 112 of the wall of check plate 100 and stop shell fragment 110 be in contact with one another.Detect contact position afterwards so that the wall position of the corresponding check plate 100 in reference position of detection and gear.Even therefore the reference position that can be actuator 42 with described wall set positions is so that also can suitably control the rotation of actuator 42 when using the encoder 46 that only can detect relative position information.In other words, use under the situation of neutral gear switch starter etc. need not, also can suitably switch gear.At this, when switching gear by said method, (1) rotation of control actuator 42 arrives feasible position of switching gear up to actuator, and (2) stopped the rotation of actuator 42 in order to improve durability before the wall of check plate 100 collides roller when switching gear.For satisfy condition (1) and (2), must understand the rotatable amount of the reality of (study) actuator 42 in switching gear.
When detecting P wall position, stop shell fragment 110 shrinks.On the contrary, when detecting non-P wall position, stop shell fragment 110 is drawn out.Afterwards, when detecting the wall position, the difference aspect the initial stage gear of setting when detecting beginning detects the situation of wall position and the shell fragment distortion occurs between the situation for the gear detection wall position different with this initial stage gear.Therefore, actual rotatable amount may change according to detecting the gear of setting when beginning.Second embodiment has solved this problem.It should be noted, with identical, therefore will no longer repeat its description here for first embodiment's description for the description of Fig. 1-10 of second embodiment.
Figure 11 illustrates the example of timing diagram, is illustrated in the variation of the count number of encoder 46 when making the initial stage be positioned at roller that non-P gear puts to collide the P wall and detect the wall position.In the timing diagram of Figure 11, horizontal axis express time, the count number of vertical shaft presentation code device 46.In this case, the maximum value of the count number of encoder 46 is corresponding to the non-P wall 210 contacted non-P wall positions of roller 112 with check plate 100.On the other hand, the minimum value of the count number of encoder 46 is corresponding to the P wall 200 contacted P wall positions of roller 112 with check plate 100.With reference to Figure 11, when making the initial stage be positioned at roller that non-P gear puts to collide the P wall, the non-P wall 210 of roller 112 and check plate 100 contact the bending that causes stop shell fragment 110, thereby cause the contraction of stop shell fragment 110.This is that big rotatory force when being positioned at roller that non-P gear puts and colliding the P wall owing to the initial stage causes.Specifically, suppose to be used for to make the initial stage to be positioned at the impact force that the roller contact that non-P gear puts and the rotatory force of colliding the P wall comprise also that except that the output torque of actuator 42 summit 122 that gets over check plate 100 when roller is produced when falling groove afterwards.Therefore, (study) P wall position is understood on possible errors ground.The mistake of P wall position is understood the error that causes target pivotal position and actual rotatable amount, and therefore roller can collide the wall of check plate 100 when normal switching gear.In other words, increased load on the check plate 100.Therefore, preferably by collision initial stage be in the P gear put in rather than the roller put of non-P gear detect P wall position.
For example, if current gear be unknown and will collide study and detect P wall position by making the initial stage be positioned at wall that roller that non-P gear puts collides the P wall, aforesaid mistake can occur and understand for P wall position.Therefore, actual rotatable amount is understood on possible errors ground.Therefore, in this embodiment, when current gear is unknown, detect actual rotatable amount on the stroke once more in the second time, following mask body is described.
Unless suppose to switch gear to the P shelves, otherwise the power supply of P-ECU40 or vehicle can not be cut off.Also hypothesis is when vehicle power supply switch 28 is switched on beginning to shift control 10 power supply, that is, when be stroke connection first time power supply, the current gear that is stored in the internal storage (not shown) of P-ECU40 is unknown.In this case, when with gear switch when the P shelves are connected power supply (for the second time stroke) subsequently with the user who cuts off the electricity supply, gear is switched to the P shelves inevitably.Therefore, can collide wall that the P wall carried out and collide study and detect P wall position once more by making the initial stage be positioned at roller that non-P gear puts.
The state of " current gear is unknown " for example comprises that the initialization by battery causes being stored in the state that the current gear in the internal storage of P-ECU40 is wiped free of.
With reference to the flow chart of Figure 12 A and 12B, will provide a kind of explanation of program, that is, if be when stroke is connected power supply for the first time, current gear the unknown then detects actual rotatable amount in response to stroke connection second time power supply.
In S100, in response to the user's of vehicle power supply switch 28 operation, vehicle is switched on power supply, that is to say, beginning is to shift control 10 supply electric power.
In S102, P-ECU40 determines current gear based on the gear that is stored on the first front travel in the internal storage.At this moment, be unknown for example owing to the initialization of battery causes current gear.Therefore, P-ECU40 waits for up to send the switching requirement from V-ECU30.V-ECU30 determines current gear from the speed of a motor vehicle.Specifically, if the speed of a motor vehicle for example is 3km/ hour or lower, then V-ECU30 determines that (judgement) current gear is the P shelves.Afterwards, V-ECU30 sends the signal that the switching of expression P shelves requires to P-ECU40.The internal storage of P-ECU40 comprises the rewritable nonvolatile memory.Nonvolatile memory for example is SRAM (static RAM).
If the speed of a motor vehicle for example is higher than 3km/ hour, then V-ECU30 determines that current gear is non-P shelves.Connect once more if some reason during owing to vehicle driving causes power supply to be cut off afterwards, then described situation can take place.In this case, V-ECU30 sends the signal that requires of switching of the non-P shelves of expression to P-ECU40.
In S104, P-ECU40 judges that whether sending expression from V-ECU30 switches the signal that requires.If send gear switch requirement (being "Yes" among the S104), this program advances to S106.If not (being "No" among the S104), program turns back to S102.
In S106, if send the gear switch requirement from V-ECU30, then P-ECU40 execution initial stage driving operation then that is to say, in encoder 46, carries out coupling (consistent) operation of rotor phase and excitation phase.
In S108, for the gear that is required by V-ECU30 to switch, P-ECU40 collides study by wall and detects the wall position.Specifically, if V-ECU30 judges that based on the speed of a motor vehicle current gear is the P shelves, V-ECU30 sends the signal that the switching of expression P shelves requires to P-ECU40.At current gear is under the condition of P shelves, and P-ECU40 collides the P wall and carries out wall and collide study by making the initial stage be positioned at roller that the P gear puts.If it is non-P shelves that V-ECU30 judges current gear, P-ECU40 collides non-P wall and carries out wall and collide study by making the initial stage be positioned at roller that non-P gear puts equally.
In S110, after detecting the wall position, P-ECU40 is driven into the position cut-out afterwards of the certain surplus in distance described wall position to the excitation of actuator 42 with actuator 42.Specifically, P-ECU40 is based on the wall position calculation target pivotal position of being detected.Thereby P-ECU40 drive actuator 42 is set in roller 112 the target pivotal position of being calculated with pivot stop plate 100 afterwards.
In S112, P-ECU40 waits for up to provide the gear switch signal from the user.
In S114, P-ECU40 judges whether provide the gear switch signal from the user.Require (being "Yes" the S114) if send switching from the user, program advances to S115.If not (being "No" among the S114), program advances to S124.
In S115, if provide the gear switch requirement from the user, P-ECU40 allows actuator 42 to rotate a predetermined amounts of rotation along the direction of the gear that requires.At this, predetermined amounts of rotation is defined as roller can not collide the wall corresponding with the requirement gear.In other words, predetermined amounts of rotation can be arrive with calculated based on the rotatable amount of design the amounts of rotation of the corresponding target of the gear that requires pivotal position.
In S116, P-ECU40 judges whether internal storage stores actual rotatable amount.If store actual rotatable amount (being "Yes" among the S116) in the internal storage, program advances to S124.If not (being "No" among the S116), program advances to S118.
In S118, the wall of P-ECU40 by the gear that require to be switched by V-ECU30 collides study and detects the wall position.Specifically, if the user sends the requirement of gear switch to non-P shelves, P-ECU40 rotational actuator 42 is to switch to non-P shelves with gear from the P shelves.Afterwards, P-ECU40 detects non-P wall position.
In S120, P-ECU40 is based on wall position of detecting in S108 and the actual rotatable amount of the wall position calculation that detects in S118.Afterwards, P-ECU40 is stored in the rotatable amount of the reality of being calculated in the internal storage.
In S122, after detecting the wall position, P-ECU40 is driven into the position cut-out afterwards of the certain surplus in distance described wall position to the excitation of actuator 42 with actuator 42.Specifically, P-ECU40 is based on the wall position calculation target pivotal position of being detected.Thereby P-ECU40 drive actuator 42 is set in roller 112 the target pivotal position of being calculated with pivot stop plate 100 afterwards.
In S124,, receive the requirement of cutting off the electricity supply in response to the user's of vehicle power supply switch 28 operation.
In S126, P-ECU40 judges whether current gear is the P shelves.If current gear is P shelves (being "Yes" among the S 126), program advances to S128.If not (being "No" among the S126), program turns back to S112.
In S128, be the P shelves if P-ECU40 judges current gear, V-ECU allows to cut off the electricity supply.Therefore V-ECU30 cuts off the power supply of vehicle.Gear is stored in operation in the internal storage of P-ECU40 and is not limited to concrete a kind ofly, require signal or at the Shi Douke storage gear of cutting off the electricity supply whenever having received from the user to switch.
In S130,, be vehicle connection power supply for the second time in response to the user's of vehicle power supply switch 28 operation.
In S132, for the second time on the stroke, owing to stored gear on the first front travel, the initial stage of therefore skipping waits for that operation is up to provide the switching requirement from V-ECU30 at this.In this case, unless since when formerly stroke finishes gear be switched to the P shelves otherwise can not cut off the electricity supply, therefore the gear that is stored in during stroke in the internal storage 40 of P-ECU40 in the second time is the P shelves.
In S134, in encoder 46, the execution initial stage drives operation between rotor phase and excitation phase, that is, and and matching operation.
In S136, P-ECU40 collides study based on the gear of storing on the first front travel by wall and detects the wall position.Specifically, P-ECU40 collides the P wall and detects P wall position by making the initial stage be positioned at roller that the P gear puts.
In S138, after detecting P wall position, P-ECU40 calculates the P target pivotal position of the certain surplus in distance P wall position.Afterwards, P-ECU40 drive actuator 42 is to be set in roller 112 the P target pivotal position of being calculated.Afterwards, P-ECU40 cuts off the excitation to actuator 42.
In S140, P-ECU40 judges whether send the gear switch requirement from the user.If send gear switch requirement (being "Yes" the S140) from the user, program advances to S142.If not (being "No" among the S140), P-ECU40 waits for up to provide the gear switch requirement from the user.
In S142, when the user sent the gear switch requirement, P-ECU40 was along the direction rotational actuator 42 1 predetermined amounts of rotation of non-P shelves.Described predetermined amounts of rotation is to allow roller not collide the amounts of rotation of non-P wall.At this, described predetermined amounts of rotation can be the amounts of rotation that arrives the non-P target pivotal position of calculating according to the rotatable amount of the reality of determining on the stroke in the first time, perhaps can be the amounts of rotation that arrives the non-P target pivotal position of calculating according to the rotatable amount of design.
In S144, P-ECU40 collides non-P wall and carries out wall and collide study by making the initial stage be positioned at roller that non-P gear puts.In other words, P-ECU40 detects non-P wall position.
In S146,, calculate and the actual rotatable amount of storage based on P wall position of being detected and non-P wall position.
In S148, after detecting non-P wall position, P-ECU40 calculates the non-P target pivotal position of the certain surplus in the non-P wall position of distance.Afterwards, P-ECU40 drive actuator 42 is to be set in roller 112 the non-P target pivotal position of being calculated.Afterwards, P-ECU40 cuts off the excitation to actuator 42.
With reference to each timing diagram among Figure 13 A-13D, will be according to the operation of above-described structure and flow process detailed description shift control 10.
Figure 13 A illustrates expression and flows to the signal that the switching of P-ECU40 requires.According to the instruction that comes from the user or come from the instruction of V-ECU30, switch and require signal to be transferred to P-ECU40.Do not require signal to be transmitted if switch, it is unknown that switching requires signal.Figure 13 B illustrates the variation of control mode.Described control mode comprises at least one pattern when connecting power supply and is used to detect the control mode of non-P wall position.Figure 13 C illustrates the variation of the count number that is drawn by encoder 46, and Figure 13 D illustrates current gear.
With reference to Figure 13 B, when the user connects power supply by vehicle power supply switch 28 (S100), because the gear that is stored in the internal storage is unknown, the P-ECU40 execution initial stage waits for that operation requires (S102) up to providing from V-ECU30 to switch.Because vehicle parking, so V-ECU30 judges that current gear is the P shelves.With reference to Figure 13 A, P-ECU40 requires (being "Yes" the S104) from the switching that V-ECU30 receives the P shelves.In encoder 46, carry out the matching operation (S106) of rotor phase and excitation phase.With reference to Figure 13 C, P-ECU40 collides the P wall and carries out wall and collide study (S108) by making the initial stage be positioned at roller that the P gear puts.After detecting P wall position, P-ECU40 rotational actuator 42 arrives to be positioned to non-P gear up to roller 112 puts P target pivotal position (S110) away from P wall position one predetermined surplus.At this moment, P-ECU40 waits for up to receiving from the user to switch and requires (S112).Referring again to Figure 13 A,, switch gear (S115) when providing from the user when the switching of non-P shelves requires (being "Yes" the S114).If do not store actual rotatable amount (being "Yes" among the S116), refer again to Figure 13 B, pattern enters the control mode (S118) of the wall collision study that is used for non-P shelves.After detection was used for the wall position of non-P shelves, P-ECU40 was based on the actual rotatable amount of wall position that is used for the P shelves and the wall position calculation that is used for non-P shelves.Afterwards, P-ECU40 is stored in (S120) in the internal storage with the rotatable amount of being calculated.Referring again to Figure 13 C, P-ECU40 rotational actuator 42 is put away from non-P wall position one to the P gear up to roller 112 arrival and is scheduled to the non-P target pivotal position (S122) of surplus.When receiving the requirement (S124) of cutting off the electricity supply from the user, if current gear right and wrong P shelves (being "No" among the S126), P-ECU40 waits for that the gear switch that comes from the user requires (S112).Referring again to Figure 13 A, require (being "Yes" among the S114) according to the switching that comes from the user to the P shelves, owing to store actual rotatable amount (being "Yes" among the S116), if therefore reception come from the user cut off the electricity supply require the time current gear be P shelves (being "Yes" among the S126), V-ECU30 cut off the electricity supply (S128) then.
Referring again to Figure 13 B,, connect power supply (S130) for the second time according to the requirement of the connection power supply that comes from the user.Because last time gear was stored in the internal storage, so P-ECU40 skips initial stage wait operation (S132).Afterwards, in encoder 46, carry out the matching operation (S134) of rotor phase and excitation phase.Return with reference to Figure 13 C, because current gear is the P shelves, so P-ECU40 detects P wall position (S136) by the wall collision study that makes roller collide the P wall.After detecting P wall position, P-ECU40 rotational actuator 42 arrives P target pivotal position (S138) up to roller 112.Referring again to Figure 13 A, when sending from the user when the switching of non-P shelves requires (being "Yes" the S140), P-ECU40 switches gear (S142).With reference to Figure 13 B, in non-P shelves, detect non-P wall position (S144) afterwards.After detecting non-P wall position, P-ECU40 arrives non-P target pivotal positions (S148) described amount is stored in the internal storage (S146) and rotational actuator 42 up to roller 112 based on the rotatable amount of the reality of P wall position and non-P wall position calculation actuator 42.
Afterwards, switch requirement according to the P shelves that come from the user, P-ECU40 switches gear, and when gear is the P shelves when making requiring of cutting off the electricity supply by the user, V-ECU30 cuts off the electricity supply.
Therefore, when the user connected power supply for the third time, current gear and rotatable amount were stored in the internal storage of P-ECU40.Referring again to Figure 13 B,, when not detecting non-P wall position, switch gear if after understanding P wall position, send the switching requirement from the user.
Described gear is any one gear except that the P shelves when supposing to connect power supply (stroke for the second time) for the second time after the initialization of battery.When vehicle driving because actuator 42 any unusual or even just often any former of actuator thereby cut off the electricity supply and can this thing happens when connecting once more.In this case, P-ECU40 detects two wall positions and calculates the target pivotal position and the rotatable amount of the reality of next stroke.
As mentioned above, the shift control 10 of this embodiment of the invention does not need neutral switch and has following effect.In order to cut off the power supply of shift control 10, must be with gear switch to the P shelves.Therefore, when connecting power supply once more, gear is the P shelves certainly.At this moment, owing to detect P wall position when gear is the P shelves, so the rotatory force of actuator 42 is less than the rotatory force at the actuator 42 when making the initial stage be positioned at roller that non-P gear puts to collide the P wall and detect P wall position.Therefore, avoid or reduced the distortion of stop shell fragment 110.Owing to avoid or reduced the distortion of stop shell fragment 110, therefore accurately detect the reference position of P shelves, and accurately understand actual rotatable amount, P target pivotal position and non-P target pivotal position based on this P wall position.And the accurate switching of gear has improved the durability of gear shift switching mechanism 48.
Although described and be shown specifically the present invention, should know to be understood that the present invention only illustrates by explanation and example, and is not restrictive, spirit of the present invention and protection domain are only limited by the project of claims.
