Description

Be used to reduce the method for the consumption of fuel of self-propelled vehicle
Technical field
The present invention relates to be used to reduce the method for the consumption of fuel of self-propelled vehicle.
Background technology
Because energy prices continue to rise, the consumption of fuel of vehicle is subjected to special concern.The consumption of fuel that the reduces current vehicle ever more important that becomes.
Yet, drive the reduction of the further developing of driving engine, air resistance or rolling resistance and other and reduce the innovative approach that consumes and can only partly utilize feasible consumption to reduce the existing potentiality of means.
In addition, only just can realize bigger saving in principle by the fuel-saving mode of travelling.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to, improving vehicle control aspect fuel-saving the travelling.
This purpose realizes by independent claims.Preferred form of implementation illustrates in the dependent claims.
This purpose realizes like this: judge the chaufeur request for even car speed; In case discern this chaufeur request for even car speed, then control and regulation are not the changes in vehicle speed that is caused by chaufeur at least in part, so that make the consumption of fuel of the driving driving engine of vehicle---as gasoline or diesel oil---as far as possible little.
According to the present invention, improve the homogeneity of travelling as the key factor of the fuel-saving mode of travelling.This means, should reduce as much as possible and quicken operation and deceleration-operation.
Particularly preferably, this method is used to have the gasoline direct system or as the vehicle of the diesel motor that drives driving engine, has special advantage aspect the consumption under the part load running.
In addition, the present invention proposes, if traffic requires and be corresponding with the hope of chaufeur, then vehicle should change react (the method according to this invention does not consume optimization control) as before to accelerator pedal position.
Generally speaking, by this solution, the motoring condition of other that chaufeur is advantageously needn't " be forced to accept " common.Automatically get involved vehicle control by the method according to this invention and be not counted as constraint, accepted easilier by chaufeur to chaufeur.
Verified, though these measures according to the present invention at skilled and proactive chaufeur at it about having supported chaufeur aspect the behavior of vehicle optimal energy efficient when not enough.In addition, this method has not only been improved consumption of fuel, but also has improved driving comfort owing to car speed is more even.
Propose according to the present invention, judge the variation of resistance to motion and control to adjust this resistance to motion at least in part to change.
Propose according to the present invention, consider following factors when judging that resistance to motion changes: the variation of the road surface degree of dip on the longitudinal direction of car direction descends as liter or road surface on the road surface; The perhaps variation of weather condition, the especially ambient wind velocity of Bian Huaing; Perhaps driving conditions, the air-flow angle (Anstr  mwinkel) that in the lee face (Windschatten) of other vehicle or object, changes as vehicle; And/or negotiation of bends.
Propose according to the present invention, based on the chaufeur request of acceleration pedal motion (Das Gaspedal motion) detection about even car speed.
Can be implemented under the situation that chaufeur do not notice delicately thus, control and regulation are not to be changed by the moving velocity that chaufeur causes.Do not need the technical parts that for this reason provides additional in principle.
Propose according to the present invention, when chaufeur in the predetermined amount of time that is limiting is regulated consistently or kept accelerator pedal position, will be identified as the desired speed of representing the chaufeur request by the car speed that this accelerator pedal position produces.
Propose according to the present invention, described predetermined amount of time at 1sec in the scope of 8sec, preferably about 5sec.
Propose according to the present invention, store the desired speed of described representative chaufeur request.
Propose according to the present invention, the desired speed of current vehicles speed and the request of described representative chaufeur is compared, when current vehicles speed and desired speed have deviation, vehicle is automatically quickened or slows down or brake (abbremsen), so that reduce this deviation, this is similar to the function of the cruising control that can select to carry out brake intervention substantially.
Propose according to the present invention, carry out the auto acceleration or the autobrake of vehicle like this, the consumption of fuel---as gasoline or diesel oil---that makes the driving driving engine of vehicle need is as far as possible little.
According to a further aspect in the invention, vehicle is auto acceleration or autobrake like this, that is, make to produce for comfortable as far as possible, relatively little acceleration operation of chaufeur or brake operating.
Propose according to the present invention, if the deviation of current vehicles speed and desired speed surpasses 0.2km/h to 2km/h, then vehicle is automatically quickened or is braked.
The specific embodiment
Describe the present invention in detail by means of embodiment now.
Vehicle has vehicle control and regulation unit, and this vehicle control and regulation unit can automatically influence car retardation and can automatically influence vehicle by " step on the accelerator " and/or " reducing brake-pressure " and quicken by " pine tar door " and/or " increase brake-pressure ".
Based on cognition to wishing at most of running time (particularly long-distance in service) chaufeur to travel with constant speed, support this hope of chaufeur, avoid unnecessary acceleration operation and deceleration-operation.
In the process of moving, the resistance to motion situation that normally changes of qualification may hinder the relevant constant request of travelling of chaufeur.
If chaufeur is made every effort to constant speed and (because upward slope or descending or wind etc.) resistance to motion changes lentamente, then only when comparing the significant velocity deviation of appearance (5km/h to 10km/h) with the desired speed of chaufeur chaufeur just can notice this deviation.Its reason is the frequency of speed control (monitoring rotation speed table) on the one hand, is to simulate the vision addressability of speed gage on the other hand.Equally, Running noise only changes a little under the situation of described deviation.
When chaufeur was noticed this deviation, the desired speed that he is regulated before attempting to readjust promptly, quickened vehicle.Because it is bigger that car speed and desired speed depart from, so must consume very many energy in order to readjust this desired speed.
If for example car speed raises when descent run, then remove the energy that offers system at first by the brake operating of introducing in case of necessity.
In addition, in two kinds of situations, the transient process about desired speed may make described operation more invalid.
Thus, the resistance to motion variation has multiple reason, and chaufeur only can recognize partly cause intuitively.
It is travelling on the bevelled road surface that the most tangible resistance to motion changes.In this case, little road surface degree of dip can not cause that usually chaufeur notes yet.According to the present invention, control to adjust this resistance to motion by method of the present invention and change.
Can't be changed by the second important resistance to motion of chaufeur Direct Recognition be the variation of air resistance, and this air resistance changes and may form owing to the air-flow angle of travelling in lee face or changing and/or the ambient wind velocity of variation.The method according to this invention controls to adjust this resistance to motion and changes.
Resistance to motion also increases owing to negotiation of bends reaches relevant therewith lateral deviation slip.This increase is counted as not too important.The method according to this invention also controls to adjust this resistance to motion and changes.
According to the present invention, recognize the chaufeur request of travelling with constant speed by monitoring accelerator pedal position (pedal position).
When the constant adjusting accelerator pedal position of chaufeur in 1 to 8 second (sec) and during the deviation in not considering among a small circle, regulate torque corresponding to this accelerator pedal position by control unit of engine.Wait for always, be adjusted to corresponding and no longer variation with this torque up to car speed.
Store detected subsequently speed.According to the present invention, suppose that this detected speed is desired speed.
If not this situation, then chaufeur requires bigger torque by bend the throttle.So torque is no longer constant.
Current vehicles speed is compared with the speed of being stored (desired speed) constantly.In case detect the deviation of 0.2km/h to 2km/h, then change motor torque, so that make this minimum deviation, this means on meaning of the present invention " control and regulation ".
The monitoring operation does not allow any for the tangible deviation of chaufeur.Therefore significantly reduced the invalid possibility of interference of chaufeur.
The acceleration pedal motion that surpasses 1 hertz is the swing of acceleration pedal---this means that this motion is more frequent than per second 1 time, do not think in order to change desired speed.This acceleration pedal motion is considered to disturb.
Because it is very passive that entire method of the present invention advantageously is designed to, so the short traverse time (delay) that may occur can not cause the attention of chaufeur.
Acceleration pedal motion is slowly recognized immediately, because generally this does not belong to interference, but represents new chaufeur request.
Towards the certain fast speed acceleration pedal motion of a direction and amplitude---this acceleration pedal motion finally remains on a position, recognized immediately equally and after short monitoring time, be considered to the chaufeur request.
Do not comprise whole torques that can obtain by driving engine because control and regulation torque that desired speed allowed changes, but only allow initial moment (torque that when the storage desired speed, exists) ± 10% to ± 40% torque changes.This makes chaufeur can quicken or apply pull-up torque on one's own initiative all the time.
In addition, the invention provides the limit of execution according to the speed range of function of the present invention.Main saving potentiality are present under the situation of speed higher (greater than 60km/h to 70km/h).Constant travelling than being in more frequently in this speed range under the situation of travelling in the city.Therefore, this method advantageous applications is in the situation of car speed greater than about 60km/h to 70km/h.
