  Hereinafter, embodiments of a rear wheel steering angle control device and a rear wheel steering angle control method according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  First, a four-wheeled vehicle to which a rear wheel steering angle control device and a rear wheel steering angle control method according to the present invention are applied will be described with reference to FIG.

  The four-wheel vehicle 1 of the present embodiment includes left and right front wheels 4L and 4R and left and right rear wheels 6L and 6R. The front wheels 4L and 4R are fitted with tires 3L and 3R, respectively, suspended by the vehicle body 2 by left and right front suspensions 7L and 7R, and attached to the vehicle body 2 by knuckles 7aL and 7aR so as to be turnable. The rear wheels 6L and 6 are fitted with tires 5L and 5R, respectively, suspended by the vehicle body 2 by left and right rear suspensions 8L and 8R, and attached to the vehicle body 2 by knuckles 8aL and 8aR so as to be turnable.

  The four-wheel vehicle 1 includes a front wheel steering device 10 that directly steers the left and right front wheels 4L and 4R by steering the steering wheel 11. The front wheel steering device 10 includes a pinion 13 that is integrally connected to a steering wheel 11 via a steering shaft 12 and a tooth portion that meshes with the pinion 13 so as to be reciprocally movable in the vehicle width direction. A rack and pinion mechanism having a rack shaft 14 is also provided. Both ends of the rack shaft 14 are connected to the left and right knuckles 7aL and 7aR via tie rods 15. The left and right front wheels 4L, 4R are steered (turned) when the rack shaft 14 is moved in the vehicle width direction by the rotation operation of the steering wheel 11.

  The steering shaft 12 is provided with a steering angle sensor 26 for detecting the steering angle of the steering wheel 11 corresponding to the actual steering angle δr of the front wheels 4L, 4R. Thereafter, the steering angle sensor 26 outputs a sensor signal indicating the actual front wheel steering angle δr.

  The four-wheeled vehicle 1 is a rear wheel steering device (rear wheel toe angle varying device) 20 having one end connected to the vehicle body 2 and the other end connected to the knuckle 8aL of the left rear wheel 6L. And a right linear actuator 21R having one end connected to the vehicle body 2 and the other end connected to the knuckle 8aR of the right rear wheel 6R. The left and right linear actuators 21L and 21R are electrically operated or hydraulic, and expand and contract by a linear operation to individually change the toe angles of the left and right rear wheels 6L and 6R. In the rear wheel steering device 20 configured as described above, the toe angles of the left and right rear wheels 6L and 6R are controlled by the left and right linear actuators 21L and 21R in the same direction in the opposite phase to the front wheel steering direction. Thus, the rear wheel can be steered.

The left and right linear actuators 21L and 21R are controlled by a rear wheel steering control device (ECU) 30. The rear wheel steering control device 30 is of an electronic control type including a microcomputer, and receives a sensor signal indicating the actual front wheel steering angle δr from the steering angle sensor 26 and a vehicle speed sensor 24 that detects the vehicle speed V of the four-wheeled vehicle 1. The sensor signal indicating the vehicle speed V is input from the front / rear acceleration / deceleration sensor 25 for detecting the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration αχ of the vehicle body 2 and the sensor signal indicating the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration αχ of the vehicle body 2 is input. The control target rear steering angle δr ^* is calculated according to the control law.

The ECU 30 converts the control target rear steering angle δr ^* into the control target stroke amount S ^* of the linear actuators 21L and 21R, and uses the stroke sensors 23L and 23R provided in the linear actuators 21L and 21R to execute the actual operations of the linear actuators 21L and 21R. Sensor signals indicating the stroke amounts SL and SR are input so that the control deviation between the control target stroke amount S ^* and the actual stroke amount SL and the control deviation between the control target stroke amount S ^* and the actual stroke amount SR are each zero. In addition, a control target signal is output to each of the linear actuators 21L and 21R.

Thus, feedback control is performed so that the toe angles (rear wheel steering angles) of the left and right rear wheels 6L and 6R become the target rear steering angle (rear wheel steering angle control target value) δr ^* .

  Next, details of the rear wheel steering angle control device 30 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The rear wheel steering angle control device 30 includes a front (front wheel) steering transmission characteristic calculation unit 31, a rear (rear wheel) steering transmission characteristic calculation unit 32, a reference yaw rate transmission characteristic calculation unit 33, and a stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value. A calculation unit 34, a stability factor correction value change amount limiting unit 35, an acceleration / deceleration correction value change amount calculation unit 36, and a control target rear steering angle calculation unit 37 are included.

When the front wheel steering angle (actual steering angle) is δf and the rear wheel steering angle (actual steering angle) is δr, the yaw rate characteristic γ of the vehicle (four-wheeled vehicle) 1 with respect to the front wheel steering angle δf and the rear wheel steering angle δr is It is represented by Formula (1).
γ = (Gf · δf) − (Gr · δr) (1)
However, Gf is a front steering transmission characteristic, and Gr is a rear steering transmission characteristic.

Assuming that the yaw rate characteristic to be realized with respect to the front wheel steering angle δf, that is, the reference yaw rate transmission characteristic, is set to Gideal, if the rear wheel steering angle δr is set such that γideal = (Gideal · δf) and γideal = γ, the reference yaw rate transmission is performed. The characteristic Gideal can be realized. Based on this, the rear wheel steering angle control device 30 performs the following arithmetic processing to calculate the control target rear steering angle δr ^* that realizes the reference yaw rate transmission characteristic Gideal.

The front steering transfer characteristic calculation unit 31 inputs a sensor signal indicating the front wheel actual steering angle δr from the steering angle sensor 26 and a sensor signal indicating the vehicle speed V from the vehicle speed sensor 24, respectively, as primary and secondary transfer functions, The front steering transmission characteristic Gf is calculated by the following equation (2).
Gf = K (af · s + 1) / (b ₁ · s ² + b ₂ · s + 1) (2)

The rear steering transmission characteristic calculation unit 32 inputs a sensor signal indicating the front wheel actual steering angle δr from the steering angle sensor 26 and a sensor signal indicating the vehicle speed V from the vehicle speed sensor 24, respectively, as primary and secondary transfer functions, The rear steering transmission characteristic Gr is calculated by the following equation (3).
Gr = K (ar · s + 1) / (b ₁ · s ² + b ₂ · s + 1) (3)

The standard yaw rate transfer characteristic calculating unit 33 calculates a sensor signal indicating the front steering angle δr from the steering angle sensor 26 and a sensor signal indicating the vehicle speed V from the vehicle speed sensor 24 by the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value calculating unit 34. Each of the signals indicating the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα is input, and the standard yaw rate transfer characteristic Gideal is calculated by the following equation (4).
Ideal = (V / L) {1 / (1 + A · Aα · V ² ) (c ₁ · s + 1) / (d ₂ · s ² + d ₁ · s + 1)} (4)

Each parameter of the equations (2) to (4) is calculated by the following equations (5) to (10).
K = (V / L) {1 / (1 + A · V ² )} (5)
A = − (m / L ² ) {(Lf · Kf−Lr · Kr) / (Kf · Kr)} (6)
af = (V / L) (m · Lf / Kr) (7)
ar = (V / L) (m · Lr / Kf) (8)
b ₁ = K (m · V · I) / (Kf · Kr · L) (9)
b ₂ = K {m (Lf · Kf ² + Lr · Kr ² ) + I (Kf + Kr)} / (Kf · Kr · L) (10)
Where m: vehicle mass L: wheel base Lf: center of gravity-front wheel axle distance Lr: center of gravity-rear wheel axle distance Kf: front wheel cornering power Kr: rear wheel cornering power V: body speed s: Laplace operator A: steady Stability factor in state Aα: Stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value I: Vehicle yaw inertial rotation mass c ₁ , d ₁ , d ₂ : Coefficients to be set arbitrarily

The control target rear steering angle calculation unit 37 receives a signal indicating the front steering transmission characteristic Gf from the front steering transmission characteristic calculation unit 31, a signal indicating the rear steering transmission characteristic Gr from the rear steering transmission characteristic calculation unit 32, and a reference yaw rate transmission characteristic. A signal indicating the standard yaw rate transfer characteristic Gideal is input from the calculation unit 33 and a sensor signal indicating the actual front wheel steering angle δr is input from the steering angle sensor 26, and the control target rear steering angle δr ^* is calculated by the following equation (11).
δr ^* = Gr ⁻¹ (Gf−Gideal) δf (11)

  As described above, the reference yaw rate transfer characteristic calculation unit 33 corrects the stability factor A used for the rear wheel steering angle control law according to the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration αχ of the vehicle body 2 with the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα. The standard yaw rate transfer characteristic Gideal is calculated using the stabilized stability factor (A · Aα).

  The stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value calculation unit 34 receives a sensor signal indicating the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration αχ of the vehicle body 2 from the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration sensor 25, and calculates the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα by the following equation (12). To do.

Aα = (Lf · Kf−Lr · Kr) / {{(Lf / (Lf + h · αχ)} Lf · Kf − {(Lr / Lr + h · αχ) Lr · Kr}} (12)
Where h: height of the center of gravity

What is important in the present invention is the unit time of the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα of the stability factor A in order to avoid a sudden change in the reference yaw rate transfer characteristic Gideal, and in other words, a sudden change in the control target rear steering angle δr ^*. To limit the amount of change per hit.

  On the other hand, the acceleration / deceleration correction value change amount calculation unit 36 per unit time of the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα by differential calculation of the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα calculated by the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value calculation unit 34. The acceleration / deceleration correction value change amount is calculated, and the calculation result is passed to the stability factor correction value change amount limiting unit 35.

  The stability factor correction value change amount limiting unit 35 receives a signal indicating the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα from the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value calculation unit 34, and is calculated by the acceleration / deceleration correction value change amount calculation unit 36. When the acceleration / deceleration correction value change amount per unit time of the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα is less than a predetermined value, the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα from the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value calculation unit 34 is used as it is. In contrast, when the amount of change in the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα per unit time of the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the reference yaw rate transfer characteristic calculation unit 33 receives the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα per unit time. The change amount is limited, and the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα with the change amount limited is passed to the reference yaw rate transfer characteristic calculation unit 33.

  As a result, the stability factor (A) corrected for longitudinal acceleration / deceleration is corrected even if the acceleration / deceleration is performed suddenly by the pitching motion of the vehicle body 2, the accelerator pedal, or the brake pedal being suddenly depressed or returned.・ Standard yaw rate transmission characteristic Gideal calculated including Aα), and the rear wheel rudder angle (toe angle) does not change abruptly, and it feels natural even during pitching, sudden acceleration, and sudden deceleration Can be realized.

  In the above-described embodiment, the acceleration / deceleration correction value change amount per unit time of the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα is calculated to limit the change amount per unit time of the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα. Acceleration / deceleration correction calculated by the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value calculation unit 34 by limiting the amount of change per unit time of the front / rear acceleration / deceleration αχ input to the deceleration correction value calculation unit 34. A limit may be added to the amount of change per unit time of the value Aα.

  This embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 3, parts corresponding to those in FIG. 2 are denoted by the same reference numerals as those in FIG. 1, and description thereof is omitted.

  In this embodiment, the front-rear acceleration / deceleration change amount calculation unit 38 that calculates the amount of change in front-rear acceleration / deceleration per unit time of the front-rear acceleration / deceleration αχ detected by the front-rear acceleration / deceleration sensor 25, and the front-rear acceleration / deceleration change amount calculation unit 38 When the calculated longitudinal acceleration / deceleration change amount per unit time is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration change amount limiting unit 39 that limits the change amount per unit time of the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration change amount is provided. The longitudinal acceleration / deceleration αχ detected by the sensor 25 is supplied to the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value calculation unit 34 through the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration change amount limiting unit 39.

  Thereby, the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration variation limiting unit 39 functions as a stability factor correction value variation limiting unit, and when the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration variation calculated by the longitudinal acceleration / deceleration variation calculating unit 38 is greater than or equal to a predetermined value. Therefore, the amount of change per unit time of the acceleration / deceleration correction value Aα calculated by the stability factor acceleration / deceleration correction value calculation unit 34 is limited.
