This vehicle has two voltage systems of a high voltage system of 42V (that is, the first voltage system) and a low voltage system of 14V (that is, the second voltage system).
[0021]
Reference numeral 11 denotes an inverter device. In the inverter device 11, the crank sprocket 12 of the engine 1 rotates the pulley 14 at the end of the rotating shaft via the belt 13 to generate electric power, and at the same time the power is not regenerated at the time other than the initial start-up. A motor generator 15 for starting the engine 1 in starting or the like is electrically connected as will be described later with reference to FIG.
[0022]
The terminal 11a on the 42V side of the inverter device 11 is connected to a 42V system wiring connected to a 36V battery 16 as a first chargeable / dischargeable battery. The 42V system wiring is connected to the first engine start-up. A 42V load 23 such as a starter motor 17 that is used only or a power steering device 18 using an electric motor is connected.
[0023]
Further, a 14V wiring to which a 12V battery 21 as a second chargeable / dischargeable battery is connected is connected to the terminal 11b on the 14V side of the inverter device 11, and other various lamps are connected to the 14V wiring. , Audio, and a 14V load 22 such as each control device to be described later is connected.
[0024]
The vehicle is equipped with an idle stop control device 30 that executes automatic stop / restart control of the vehicle. The idle stop control device 30 includes an engine control device 31 that executes various well-known controls in the engine 1, A battery monitoring device 32 for managing the charging state and discharging state of the 36V battery 16, a motor generator control device 33 connected to the inverter device 11 for controlling the motor generator 15, etc. Values and switch signals that are connected by a CAN (Controller Area Network), which is one of the protocols, and are detected by each sensor described later are shared by the respective control devices as needed through this CAN.
[0025]
The idle stop control device 30 includes a brake pedal depression amount sensor 42 (which may sense brake hydraulic pressure) that detects a depression stroke of the brake pedal 41, and an accelerator pedal depression amount sensor 44 that detects a depression stroke of the accelerator pedal 43. It is connected. Further, the idle stop control device 30 includes a steering wheel angle sensor 45 that detects a steering wheel angle θH, a vehicle speed sensor 46 that detects a vehicle speed V, a selected shift position (P, R, N, D, 3rd speed, 2nd speed, A shift position switch 47 and the like for detecting each range position of the first speed are connected. The engine control device 31 is connected to well-known sensors such as an engine speed sensor and an accelerator opening sensor (not shown).
[0026]
The idle stop control device 30 determines whether or not a preset engine automatic stop condition for automatically stopping the engine 1 is satisfied based on information obtained from these switches and sensors, and the engine automatic stop condition is satisfied. In such a case, a signal for automatically stopping the engine 1 is output to the engine control device 31 and the motor generator control device 33.
[0027]
Further, the idle stop control device 30 outputs a signal to the engine control device 31 and the motor generator control device 33 when the engine automatic stop condition is not satisfied in the idling stop state, and the motor generator 15 is driven by the inverter device 11. Is driven and the engine 1 is restarted.
[0028]
Here, the engine automatic stop condition is, for example, that the brake pedal 41 is depressed, the accelerator pedal 43 is not depressed, and the shift position is P, N, D, 3rd speed, 2nd speed, 1st speed. This is a case where the vehicle speed V is substantially zero and there is no idle stop prohibition command from the battery monitoring device 32.
[0029]
Further, the idle stop control device 30 is configured so that the regeneration condition set in advance (for example, the accelerator pedal 43 is not depressed, the engine speed NE is 1000 rpm or more, the vehicle speed V is 40 km / h or more, and the drive system And the engine 1 are connected and the fuel is not consumed), a regeneration command is output to the battery monitoring device 32.
[0030]
Further, the idle stop control device 30 is in an idle state (for example, the depression amount of the accelerator pedal 43 is set to the engine control device 31 when an abnormality described later of the inverter device 11 is input from the motor generator control device 33. A command to increase the idling speed (for example, to increase the idling speed of 700 revolutions to 1100 revolutions) is output when the brake pedal 41 is not zero and the vehicle speed is zero. It is supposed to be.
[0031]
In addition, the battery monitoring device 32 manages a charging state and a discharging state of the 36V battery 16, a battery temperature sensor 51 that detects the battery temperature TBa in the 36V battery 16, a battery voltmeter 52 that detects the battery voltage VBa, and a battery current A battery ammeter 53 for detecting IBa is connected.
[0032]
The battery monitoring device 32 outputs the target voltage value (target voltage) VTG to the motor generator control device 33 to perform charging without directly controlling the power generation torque of the motor generator 15 during charging. Since the 36V battery 16 is charged by regeneration or the like, the charging is normally performed with a voltage value corresponding to a preset battery remaining capacity of 70%.
[0033]
In addition, when there is a regeneration command from the idle stop control device 30, the battery monitoring device 32 sets a higher target voltage VTG as the battery temperature is lower and the brake depression amount is larger according to the battery temperature and the brake depression amount. Then, it is output to the motor generator control device 33.
[0034]
Further, when it is determined from the voltage value and temperature of the 36V battery 16 that the 36V battery 16 is in an overdischarged state, the battery monitoring device 32 outputs an idle stop prohibition command to the idle stop control device 30. Then, a quick charge process is performed in which charging is performed at a voltage value that is higher than a normal charging voltage value by a predetermined value to recover from the overdischarged state.
[0035]
Further, when it is determined that the 36V battery 16 is in an overcharged state from the voltage value and temperature of the 36V battery 16, the battery monitoring device 32 uses the normal charging voltage value without completely cutting the power generation by the motor generator 15. In addition, a charge suspension process for setting a predetermined low voltage value is executed to suppress the charge amount and recover from the overcharge state.
[0036]
The motor generator control device 33 receives a signal (idle stop command) for automatically stopping the engine 1 from the idle stop control device 33, and the remaining battery capacity based on the target voltage VTG, the battery voltage VBa, and the battery voltage VBa from the battery monitoring device 32. (Battery SOC) and a command state (rapid charging process etc.) for the battery are input, and the accelerator opening, the engine speed, and the vehicle speed are also input.
[0037]
Then, the control to be executed by the motor generator 15 is determined according to each signal described above, and parameters necessary for these controls are output to the inverter device 11. Specifically, the motor generator control device 33 controls the inverter device 11 as a control mode as a stop time control mode, a constant voltage power generation control mode, a start time control (startup maximum torque control, start time zero torque control, start time control). Command each mode of power generation control) mode, sudden acceleration control (zero torque control during rapid acceleration, power generation control during rapid acceleration) mode, and parameters required for each control mode (torque, rotation speed, charge command of motor generator 15) Voltage VOD) is calculated and mapped and output. Further, from the inverter device 11, state quantities of the motor generator 15 (torque, rotation speed, charging voltage of the motor generator 15) are input.
[0038]
Here, the control mode determined by the motor generator control device 33 is, for example, the following control mode.
[0039]
1. The stop time control mode is a mode in which when the motor generator 15 is rotating, a brake is applied to stop the motor generator 15 and when the motor generator 15 is stopped, the brake is released.
[0040]
2. The starting maximum torque control mode is a mode that is executed until the engine 1 is started when an engine restart signal is input, and refers to a previously stored torque / rotation speed map of the motor generator 15. In this mode, a signal is output to the inverter device 11 so as to generate a torque corresponding to the rotational speed of the motor generator 15.
[0041]
3. When it is determined that the engine is started, the zero torque control mode at the time of start is set with reference to a map set in advance according to the required load, that is, the engine speed and the accelerator opening, and the zero torque time is set. Until the time elapses, the control mode is such that neither the driving force generation by the motor generator 15 nor the power generation is performed. The zero torque time described above is set to a longer time as the accelerator opening is larger and as the engine speed is smaller.
[0042]
4). The start-time power generation control mode is a control mode in which the charge voltage is increased stepwise without suddenly setting the charge voltage commanded by the battery monitoring device 32 after the start-up zero torque control mode is completed.
[0043]
5. When the vehicle is determined to be in a sudden acceleration state, the sudden acceleration zero torque control is set in advance according to the required load, that is, the engine speed and the accelerator opening, as in the above-described zero torque control mode at the time of starting. With reference to the map, a zero torque time is set, and the mode is a control mode in which neither the driving force generation nor the power generation by the motor generator 15 is performed until the zero torque time elapses.
[0044]
6). The sudden acceleration power generation control mode is a control mode in which the charging voltage is increased stepwise without suddenly setting the charging voltage commanded by the battery monitoring device 32 after the above-described sudden acceleration zero torque control mode is completed. Yes.
[0045]
The motor generator control device 33 also monitors the abnormality of the inverter control unit 61 of the inverter device 11. For example, a predetermined numerical value is output to the inverter control device 61 and an accurate calculation result is sent to the motor generator control device 33. When not input, the inverter control part 61 of the inverter apparatus 11 determines with it being abnormal. Thus, when the inverter control unit 61 determines that there is an abnormality, the motor generator control device 33 forcibly limits the inverter device 11 to only the rectifying function that changes the alternating current from the motor generator 15 to a direct current of a predetermined voltage. (A specific method will be described later) At the same time, an abnormality of the inverter device 11 is output to the idle stop control device 30, and the engine control device 31 is caused to increase the idle rotation speed during idling. Thus, the motor generator control device 33 has a function as a failure time control means provided outside the inverter device 11.
[0046]
Next, a connection circuit centering on the motor generator 15 and the inverter 11 will be described with reference to FIG.
The inverter device 11 mainly includes an inverter control unit 61, an intelligent power module (hereinafter abbreviated as IPM) 62, and a field control circuit unit 63.
[0047]
The inverter control unit 61 serves as a conversion control means, and the voltage value, current value, and changeover switch on the circuit of a P terminal (a common terminal 66a of the changeover switch unit 66 provided in the field control circuit unit 63) to be described later of the IPM 62. Each voltage value of the first switching terminal (42V side terminal) 66b and the second switching terminal (14V side terminal) 66c of the unit 66, any two terminals of the U, V, and W terminals of the motor generator 15 Voltage value, current value (input through the IPM 62), a rotation phase signal from the resolver 67 for detecting the rotation phase of the rotor of the motor generator 15, and the like.
[0048]
Further, from the motor generator control device 33, the above-described control modes, parameters necessary for these control modes (torque, rotation speed, charge command voltage VOD of the motor generator 15) and the like are input. Further, the inverter control unit 61 outputs a state quantity (torque, rotation speed, charging voltage of the motor generator 15) of the motor generator 15 to the motor generator control device 33.
[0049]
Then, according to each input control mode, the IPM 62 is gate-controlled based on the input current (inverter state), voltage, and rotor phase of each unit, and the field control circuit unit 63 is controlled. Then, a field current command and a change request to the changeover switch unit 66 are output. Further, the field current is fed back from the field control circuit unit 63 and the state of the changeover switch unit 66 is input. The inverter control unit 61 switches the change-over switch unit 66 of the field control circuit unit 63 from the first switch terminal (42V side terminal) 66b to the second switch terminal (14V side terminal) 66c. When switching from the second switching terminal (14V side terminal) 66c to the first switching terminal (42V side terminal) 66b, the generated current from the IPM 62 is controlled to be substantially zero.
[0050]
Further, in order to monitor that the inverter control unit 61 is operating normally, a numerical value is input to the inverter control unit 61 from the motor generator control device 33 every predetermined time, and the input numerical value is stored in advance in the memory. Calculation is performed using the previously calculated equation and the result is output to the motor generator control device 33. The motor generator control device 33 determines whether the inverter control unit 61 is normal or abnormal based on the calculation result. When the motor generator control device 33 determines that the inverter control unit 61 is abnormal, the gate control for the IPM 62 by the inverter control unit 61 is disconnected, and all the gates are closed by the IPM 62 to cause the IPM 62 to generate power by the motor generator 15. Forced transition to the function of rectification only. When the inverter control unit 61 breaks down due to this fail-safe function, the vehicle loses the automatic stop / restart function of the engine 1, but the 36V battery 16 and the 12V battery 21 are continuously charged. The driving of the vehicle until it is done is guaranteed reliably.
[0051]
The inverter control unit 61 receives signals such as temperature and current from the IPM 62, and performs failure diagnosis and protection control of the IPM 62 based on these signals.
[0052]
The inverter control unit 61 is also monitored by the field control circuit unit 63 in the same manner as the monitoring by the motor generator control device 33 described above. When the field control circuit unit 63 detects a failure state of the inverter control unit 61, the inverter control unit 61 The gate control for the IPM 62 by 61 is cut off, and the field control circuit unit 63 closes all the gates for the IPM 62 to forcibly shift the IPM 62 to the function of only the rectifying action of power generation by the motor generator 15. A failure of the inverter control unit 61 detected by the motor generator control device 33 or the field control circuit unit 63 is alerted to the driver by an alarm lamp of a combination meter provided on an instrument panel (not shown). ing.
[0053]
The IPM 62 is provided as a conversion means, and is composed of a plurality of switching elements, their drive circuits, and various protection circuits as one package, and a known device that drives a MOS FET under set conditions. . The U, V and W three-phase inverter terminals are connected to the motor generator 15, and the P terminal which is the positive side terminal of the main power supply terminal after smoothing the rectifier converter is the common terminal of the changeover switch section 66 of the field control circuit section 63. 66a and the field circuit section 65, and the N terminal, which is the negative terminal, is grounded. The gate is controlled by a signal from the inverter control unit 61 to drive the motor generator 15 and charge the motor generator 15.
[0054]
The field control circuit unit 63 is provided as a field control unit, and mainly includes a field control unit 64, a field circuit unit 65, and a changeover switch unit 66.
The field control unit 64 includes a voltage value on a circuit of a P terminal of the IPM 62 (a common terminal 66a of the changeover switch unit 66 provided in the field control circuit unit 63), a first changeover terminal (42V side terminal) 66b of the changeover switch unit 66. And each voltage value of the 2nd switching terminal (14V side terminal) 66c is input. Further, a field current command and a switching request for the changeover switch unit 66 are input from the inverter control unit 61, the field current is fed back to the inverter control unit 61, and the state of the changeover switch unit 66 is changed. Output.
[0055]
In this way, the field circuit unit 65 controls the field current in cooperation with the IPM 62 based on the field current command from the inverter control unit 61, and mainly based on the switching request from the inverter control unit 61. While referring to the voltage value of the switching terminal (terminal on the 14V side) 66c, the switching switch part 66 is either the first switching terminal (terminal on the 42V side) 66b or the second switching terminal (terminal on the 14V side) 66c. Switch to.
[0056]
Similarly to the monitoring by the motor generator control device 33 described above, the field control unit 64 monitors the inverter control unit 61 and detects a failure state of the inverter control unit 61. Then, the inverter control unit 61 performs gate control on the IPM 62. The IPM 62 is closed and all the gates are closed, and the IPM 62 is forced to shift to the function of only the rectifying action of the power generation by the motor generator 15.
[0057]
The field circuit unit 65 adjusts the field current so that the field current commanded by the signal from the field control unit 64 is obtained as described above.
[0058]
The changeover switch section 66 is provided as changeover switch means, and has two switchable terminals 66b and 66c. The common terminal 66a of the changeover switch part 66 is connected to the P terminal of the IPM 62 and one input terminal of the field circuit part 65, and the first changeover terminal 66b of the changeover switch part 66 includes the 36V battery 16 and the 42V load 23. The second switching terminal 66c of the changeover switch section 66 is connected to a second voltage system having a 12V battery 21 and a 14V load 22.
[0059]
Then, the switching between the first switching terminal 66b and the second switching terminal 66c of the changeover switch part 66 is performed based on a command from the field control part 64, and mainly the second switching terminal (terminal on the 14V side) 66c. With reference to the voltage value, the first switching terminal (42V side terminal) 66b and the second switching terminal (14V side terminal) 66c are switched.
[0060]
Next, failure diagnosis for the inverter device 11 in the motor generator control device 33 and the idle stop control device 30 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
[0061]
First, in step (hereinafter abbreviated as “S”) 101, whether or not there is an abnormality in the inverter control unit 61 of the inverter device 11, that is, the motor generator control device 33 outputs to the inverter control unit 61 of the inverter device 11. It is determined whether or not a correct calculation result is input from the inverter control unit 61 for a predetermined numerical value. If the correct calculation result is input and the inverter control unit 61 can determine that the value is normal, the program is exited.
[0062]
On the other hand, if the correct calculation result is not input and the inverter control unit 61 can determine that there is an abnormality, the process proceeds to S102, where the gate control for the IPM 62 by the inverter control unit 61 is disconnected and all the gates are closed for the IPM 62. Thus, the IPM 62 is forcibly shifted to the function of only the rectifying action of power generation by the motor generator 15.
[0063]
Thereafter, the process proceeds to S103, whether or not the engine 1 is in an idle state, that is, whether or not the depression amount of the accelerator pedal 43 is zero, the depression amount of the brake pedal 41 is not zero, and the vehicle speed is zero. If it is not in the idle state, the program is left as it is, and if it is in the idle state, the process proceeds to S104.
[0064]
In S104, a command to increase the idle rotation speed (for example, increase the idle rotation speed of 700 rotations to 1100 rotations) is output to the engine control device 31.
[0065]
As described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the field control circuit unit 63 is connected to either the first switching terminal (42V side terminal) 66b or the second switching terminal (14V side terminal) 66c. A changeover switch unit 66 that can be switched is provided, and the changeover switch unit 66 is controlled to switch to charge the 42V system and the 14V system. Therefore, no DC-DC converter is required, and 42V Optimum charging is possible independently for each of the system and the 14V system.
[0066]
Further, the inverter control unit 61 is monitored for an abnormal state by the motor generator control device 33. When the motor generator control device 33 detects a failure state of the inverter control unit 61, the gate control for the IPM 62 by the inverter control unit 61 is cut off, The motor generator control device 33 has the function of closing all the gates of the IPM 62 and forcibly shifting the IPM 62 to the function of only the rectifying action of the power generation by the motor generator 15. For example, the inverter control unit 61 Even if the vehicle malfunctions, the vehicle loses the automatic stop / restart function of the engine 1, but the 36V battery 16 and the 12V battery 21 continue to be charged, so that the vehicle is reliably operated until the failure is repaired. Guaranteed. Further, when the motor generator control device 33 detects the failure state of the inverter control unit 61, the idle speed is increased, and the charge amount and the necessary power for the batteries 16 and 21 can be sufficiently secured, so that the failure is repaired. Driving of the vehicle up to is guaranteed more reliably.

The inverter control unit 61 is also monitored by the field control circuit unit 63. When the field control circuit unit 63 detects a failure state of the inverter control unit 61, the gate control for the IPM 62 by the inverter control unit 61 is cut off, and the field control circuit unit 63 Has a function of closing all the gates of the IPM 62 and forcibly shifting the IPM 62 to the function of only the rectifying action of the power generation by the motor generator 15. For example, even if the inverter control unit 61 breaks down The vehicle loses the automatic stop / restart function of the engine 1, but the 36V battery 16 and the 12V battery 21 are continuously charged, and the operation of the vehicle is reliably ensured until the failure is repaired.
