Description

Brake system for automatic driving vehicle
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a vehicle braking field especially relates to a braking system for autopilot vehicle.
Background
A known vehicle brake-by-wire system includes a hydraulic control unit and an electronic control unit. The hydraulic control unit generally comprises: the brake system comprises a brake master cylinder, a pedal stroke sensor, a pedal feeling simulator, a pressure generating device, a plurality of electromagnetic valves and a hydraulic valve block for accommodating and fixing the components. The electronic control unit is typically mounted on the hydraulic valve block.
The brake master cylinder generates hydraulic pressure through a master cylinder piston which is connected with a vehicle brake pedal and driven by the brake pedal, the pedal stroke sensor is used for transmitting pedal stroke signals to the electronic control unit, the pedal feeling simulator absorbs the hydraulic pressure of the brake master cylinder to provide foot feeling of a driver, the pressure generating device drives the piston to provide brake pressure for a vehicle brake wheel cylinder through a motor, the electromagnetic valve is arranged on each control node of a hydraulic oil path and conducts on-off operation on the hydraulic flow path according to the requirement of brake control, a plurality of hole characteristics and connecting structure characteristics are arranged on the hydraulic valve block to contain and install the components, and a plurality of hydraulic oil paths are constructed to hydraulically connect the components. The electronic control unit controls a motor and a plurality of electromagnetic valves of the pressure generating device and provides the functions of line control braking, various active/automatic braking, braking energy recovery (regenerative braking), anti-lock braking, electronic stability of a vehicle body and the like.
The system principle is shown in fig. 2, and the basic working process is as follows:
when the system works normally, a brake-by-wire mode is executed, the brake intention of a driver is obtained through the pedal stroke sensor 43, the motor 211 of the pressure generating device is electrified to drive the booster piston 212 to generate brake hydraulic pressure, and meanwhile, the corresponding electromagnetic valve device is electrified to work, and the brake hydraulic pressure is transmitted to the wheel cylinder 90 of the vehicle brake for braking; when the system is in a failure, the system enters a mechanical backup braking mode, the motor and the electromagnetic valves of the pressure generating device do not work (are powered off), and a driver directly drives the brake pedal 10, further drives the master cylinder pistons 41 and 42 to generate brake hydraulic pressure and transmits the brake hydraulic pressure to the wheel cylinders 90 of the vehicle brakes for braking.
Refer to the structure of the hydraulic control unit shown in international publication number WO 2019/076642 a1 and chinese publication number CN 208881776U, as shown in fig. 3 and 4. In the prior art, the master cylinder 40, the pedal stroke sensor 43, the pedal feel simulator 30, the first pressure generating device 210, the brake fluid reservoir 50, and the solenoid valves are constructed as an integrated hydraulic control unit 100, and are mounted and fixed to the firewall 20 of the front compartment of the vehicle. Such an integrated hydraulic control unit is relatively heavy and bulky, typically 2 times heavier than the vacuum booster-master cylinder assembly of a conventional fuel vehicle.
1. The position of the pedal (the driver's foot) on the vehicle is relatively fixed, and the master cylinder in the hydraulic control unit must be connected to the pedal, whereby the mounting position of the bulky hydraulic control unit on the vehicle is fixed, and therefore, the arrangement around the pedal in the front compartment of the vehicle is disadvantageous.
2. The fireproof wallboard for supporting the hydraulic control unit on the vehicle is generally a thin-wall sheet metal part with low rigidity and strength, and the large weight causes the aggravation of vibration amplitude, thus being unfavorable for the performance and the service life of the product.
3. While the vehicle inertia sensors (for sensing the vehicle longitudinal acceleration and yaw rate) required for the electronic body stabilization function must be rigidly fixed to the vehicle chassis frame to accurately sense the vehicle motion state, the typical inertia sensors are integrated with the circuit board of the electronic control unit and are fixedly connected to the hydraulic control unit through the housing of the electronic control unit for cost reduction. Therefore, the integral hydraulic control unit is heavy and is arranged on a fireproof wall of a thin-wall sheet metal part, so that the vibration amplitude is large, the signal distortion of a vehicle inertia sensor can be caused, and the electronic stability function of a vehicle body can not be realized. In order to solve the problem, a separate inertia sensor module needs to be arranged, and the cost is high.
4. The first hydraulic pressure generating device of the hydraulic control unit comprises a first motor, and the noise of the first motor is easy to transmit to a driving cabin and further be sensed by a vehicle passenger when braking is carried out due to the fact that the first motor is close to a firewall of a front cabin of the vehicle.
5. Only one pressure generating device (first pressure generating device) fails the automatic braking function when a malfunction occurs, and cannot be used in the unmanned vehicle.
