Description

本発明は、運転者が加えるペダル踏力に応じたアシスト力を駆動輪に供給するアシスト力供給装置と、運転者の操作により変速する変速機構とを備えたアシスト力付き車両に関する。   The present invention relates to an assist-powered vehicle including an assist force supply device that supplies an assist force according to a pedal depression force applied by a driver to a drive wheel, and a speed change mechanism that changes gears by the operation of the driver.

運転者のペダル踏力と、ペダル踏力の大きさに応じたアシスト力との合力を駆動輪に供給するようにしたアシスト力付き車両が市販されている。この種の車両において、ペダル踏力及びアシスト力を駆動輪に伝える伝動系に、運転者の操作により変速する変速機構を介在させたものがある。このような変速機構を備えた場合、特定の変速段においてアシストフィーリングを作り込んだ1つのペダル踏力−アシスト力制御特性で全ての変速段のアシストフィーリングを最適に設定することはできない。   A vehicle with an assist force is commercially available in which a resultant force of a driver's pedal depression force and an assist force corresponding to the magnitude of the pedal depression force is supplied to the drive wheels. In this type of vehicle, a transmission system that transmits pedal depression force and assist force to a drive wheel is provided with a speed change mechanism that changes speed by a driver's operation. When such a speed change mechanism is provided, it is not possible to optimally set the assist feeling of all the speeds with one pedal depression force-assist force control characteristic in which the assist feeling is created at a specific speed.

例えば高速段Hの制御特性(図4参照)でアシスト力を決定する場合、変速段を中速段M,低速段Lと切り替えると、図8,図9のように特性がずれ、商品性が悪化する。具体的には、発進時の急加速を抑制するために図4のように低負荷域でのアシスト比を1:1よりも低く設定してあった場合、高速段では、図8,図9の斜度範囲aでアシスト比が低くなるのに対し、低中速段で同じ斜度の走路を走行する際には同図のb,cのようにより広い斜度範囲でアシスト比が低くなり、商品生が悪化する。   For example, when the assist force is determined by the control characteristics of the high speed stage H (see FIG. 4), if the shift speed is switched between the medium speed stage M and the low speed stage L, the characteristics are shifted as shown in FIGS. Getting worse. Specifically, when the assist ratio in the low load region is set lower than 1: 1 as shown in FIG. 4 in order to suppress sudden acceleration at the time of start, in the high speed stage, FIG. While the assist ratio is low in the slope range a, the assist ratio is low in a wider slope range as shown in FIGS. The product life gets worse.

このような問題を抑制して常に安定したアシスト力が得られるようにするために、変速段毎のペダル踏力−アシスト力制御特性を予め備えておき、変速段に対応した制御特性に基づいてアシスト力を決定するようしたものがある(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
特許第3190491号公報
In order to suppress such problems and to obtain a stable assist force at all times, a pedal depression force-assist force control characteristic for each shift stage is prepared in advance, and assist is performed based on the control characteristic corresponding to the shift stage. There is one that determines the force (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
Japanese Patent No. 3190491

ところが、前記公報に記載の従来車両のように、変速段数分の制御特性を予め備える場合、制御特性開発のための開発コストが上昇するとともに、それら複数の制御特性を記憶するための記憶領域増量による部品コストが上昇するといった問題が生じる。   However, when the control characteristics corresponding to the number of shift stages are provided in advance as in the conventional vehicle described in the publication, the development cost for developing the control characteristics increases, and the storage area increases for storing the plurality of control characteristics. There arises a problem that the cost of parts increases.

本発明は、前記従来の状況に鑑みてなされたもので、複数の制御特性のための開発コストや部品コストの上昇を来すことなく、各変速段において同等の最適なアシストフィーリングが得られるアシスト力を供給できるアシスト力付き車両を提供することを課題としている。   The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional situation, and an equivalent optimal assist feeling can be obtained at each shift stage without causing an increase in development costs and component costs for a plurality of control characteristics. An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle with assist power that can supply assist power.

A vehicle with a force, a shift speed detection sensor for detecting the current shift speed, a reference shift speed assist force control characteristic for obtaining an assist force according to the pedal depression force at the reference shift speed, and the reference shift speed assist force An assist force calculating device that obtains an assist force at each gear position based on the control characteristics is further provided, and the assist force calculating device calculates the current gear step pedal depression force at the current gear step and the gear ratio of the reference gear step and the current gear step. A reference gear equivalent pedal load is obtained by correcting the gear ratio and a reference gear equivalent assist force corresponding to the reference gear equivalent pedal load. The present invention is characterized in that it is obtained on the basis of a shift speed assist force control characteristic, and further, the current shift speed assist force is obtained by correcting the assist speed corresponding to the reference shift speed by the speed ratio of the reference shift speed and the current speed ratio. Yes.

ここで、本発明の基準変速段アシスト力制御特性は、予めマップで記憶されていても良いし、演算式で記憶されていても良い。また、本発明における「ペダル踏力」は実際にペダルに加えられるトルクを意味し、一方「ペダル負荷」は、ペダル踏力を補正することにより求められたトルクを意味している。本明細書では、両者を区別するために異なる用語が用いられている。   Here, the reference shift speed assist force control characteristic of the present invention may be stored in advance as a map or may be stored as an arithmetic expression. In the present invention, “pedal pressing force” means torque actually applied to the pedal, while “pedal load” means torque obtained by correcting the pedal pressing force. In the present specification, different terms are used to distinguish the two.

さらにまた、本発明の変速比は、減速比と増速比の両方を含む。   Furthermore, the transmission ratio of the present invention includes both a reduction ratio and an increase ratio.

請求項2の発明は、請求項1に記載のアシスト力付き車両において、前記アシスト力演算装置は、基準変速段相当ペダル負荷=現在変速段ペダル踏力÷(基準変速段減速比/現在変速段減速比)により基準変速段相当ペダル負荷を求めるとともに、現在変速段アシスト力=基準変速段相当アシスト力×(基準変速段減速比/現在変速段減速比)により現在変速段アシスト力を求めることを特徴としている。   According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the vehicle with the assist force according to the first aspect, the assist force calculating device is configured such that a reference gear equivalent pedal load = current shift step pedal depression force / (reference shift step reduction ratio / current shift step deceleration). Ratio) to obtain the reference gear equivalent pedal load and current gear assist force = reference gear equivalent assist force × (reference gear reduction ratio / current gear reduction ratio). It is said.

なお、各変速段が増速比を有するものである場合は、前記基準変速段相当ペダル負荷,現在変速段アシスト力を求める式において、÷,×は、それぞれ×,÷と逆になる。   When each gear stage has a speed increasing ratio, ÷ and x are reversed to x and ÷, respectively, in the formulas for obtaining the reference gear equivalent pedal load and the current gear assist power.

請求項3の発明は、請求項1又2に記載のアシスト力付き車両において、前記変速段検知センサは、前記変速機構,変速操作を行う変速操作器又は該変速操作を変速機構に伝達する伝達機構から変速段を直接検知するように構成されていることを特徴としている。   According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the vehicle with assist force according to the first or second aspect, the shift speed detection sensor is configured to transmit the shift mechanism, a shift operation device that performs a shift operation, or a transmission that transmits the shift operation to the shift mechanism. It is characterized by being configured to directly detect the gear position from the mechanism.

請求項4の発明は、請求項1又は2に記載のアシスト力付き車両において、前記変速段検知センサは、実際の車速とモータ回転数とに基づいて変速段を計算により推定するように構成されていることを特徴としている。   According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the vehicle with assist force according to the first or second aspect, the shift speed detection sensor is configured to estimate the shift speed by calculation based on an actual vehicle speed and a motor rotational speed. It is characterized by having.

請求項1の発明に係るアシスト力付き車両によれば、現在変速段ペダル踏力を基準変速段の変速比と現在変速段の変速比とによって補正して、より具体的には請求項2に記載のように、基準変速段減速比/現在変速段減速比で除算することによって基準変速段相当ペダル負荷を求めた。また基準変速段相当ペダル負荷に応じた基準変速段相当アシスト力を基準変速段アシスト力制御特性に基づいて求めた。さらに該基準変速段相当アシスト力を前記基準変速段の変速比と現在変速段の変速比とによって補正して、より具体的には請求項2に記載のように基準変速段減速比/現在変速段減速比で乗算することによって現在変速段アシスト力を求めた。その結果、基準変速段で最適のアシストフィーリングとなるように設定した基準変速段アシスト力制御特性から残りの変速段において最適のアシストフィーリングとなるアシスト力を求めることができる。   According to the vehicle with assist force according to the first aspect of the present invention, the present gear position pedal depression force is corrected by the gear ratio of the reference gear position and the gear ratio of the current gear position. As described above, the pedal load corresponding to the reference gear is obtained by dividing by the reference gear reduction ratio / the current gear reduction ratio. Further, the reference gear equivalent assist force corresponding to the reference gear equivalent pedal load was obtained based on the reference gear assist force control characteristic. Further, the assisting power corresponding to the reference gear is corrected by the gear ratio of the reference gear and the gear ratio of the current gear, and more specifically, the reference gear reduction ratio / current gear as described in claim 2. The current gear assist force was obtained by multiplying by the gear reduction ratio. As a result, it is possible to obtain the assist force that provides the optimum assist feeling in the remaining gears from the reference gear assist force control characteristics that are set so as to provide the optimum assist feeling at the reference gears.

According to this aspect, since the shift speed is directly detected from the speed change mechanism, the speed change operation device that performs the speed change operation, or the transmission mechanism that transmits the speed change operation to the speed change mechanism, the speed change speed can be detected accurately.

また前記コントローラ27は、前記変速段検知センサ25からの変速段検知信号aが入力される変速段検知部28と、前記トルクセンサ26からの踏力検知信号bが入力される踏力検知部29と、アシスト力制御特性等が記憶されたメモリ30と、これらの検知信号,アシスト力制御特性に基づいてアシスト力を演算するアシスト力演算部31と、演算されたアシスト力をモータ制御信号Aとして電動モータ18に出力するモータ制御部32とを有する。なお、電動モータ18の回転速度はモータ回転センサ(エンコーダ)33によって検出され、前記モータ制御部32にフィードバックされる。   The controller 27 includes a shift speed detection unit 28 to which a shift speed detection signal a from the shift speed detection sensor 25 is input, a pedaling force detection unit 29 to which a pedaling force detection signal b from the torque sensor 26 is input, A memory 30 in which assist force control characteristics and the like are stored, an assist force calculator 31 that calculates an assist force based on these detection signals and assist force control characteristics, and an electric motor using the calculated assist force as a motor control signal A 18 and a motor control unit 32 that outputs to 18. The rotational speed of the electric motor 18 is detected by a motor rotation sensor (encoder) 33 and fed back to the motor control unit 32.

前記コントローラ27におけるアシスト力の演算について、図3の制御フロー及び図4〜図7の制御特性図に基づいて詳述する。   The calculation of the assist force in the controller 27 will be described in detail based on the control flow of FIG. 3 and the control characteristic diagrams of FIGS.

前記メモリ30には、図4に示す基準変速段(第3速−H)において最適なアシストフィーリングが得られるよう予め作り込まれた基準変速段アシスト力制御特性(基準マップ)Hmapが記憶されている。この基準マップHmapでは、例えば停止状態からのスタート時には、ペダル踏力が小さい間はアシスト比が1:1より小さくなっており、途中から1:1近くまで増加し、その後は再び1:1より小さくなっている。   The memory 30 stores a reference shift speed assist force control characteristic (reference map) Hmap that has been created in advance so as to obtain an optimum assist feeling at the reference shift speed (third speed-H) shown in FIG. ing. In this reference map Hmap, for example, when starting from a stop state, the assist ratio is smaller than 1: 1 while the pedal depression force is small, increases from the middle to nearly 1: 1, and thereafter again smaller than 1: 1. It has become.

図5(a)は走行負荷と平均踏力との関係を示している。同図から、同じ走行負荷(走路斜度等)であれば、第1速L,第2速M,第3速Hになるに従って平均踏力は増加し、換言すれば、同じ平均踏力であれば第3速から第1速になるほど大きな走行負荷(走路斜度)に耐えられることが判る。   FIG. 5A shows the relationship between the running load and the average pedal effort. From the figure, if the driving load is the same (running road slope, etc.), the average pedal effort increases as the first speed L, the second speed M, and the third speed H. In other words, if the average pedal effort is the same, It turns out that it can endure a big driving | running | working load (running road slope), so that it goes from 3rd speed to 1st speed.

図5(b)は、例えば、第1速(L)で走行している場合の現在変速段ペダル踏力 に対応する現在変速段アシスト力を前記基準マップに基づいて求める手順を説明するための図である。   FIG. 5B is a diagram for explaining a procedure for obtaining the current shift speed assist force corresponding to the current shift speed pedal depression force based on the reference map when traveling at the first speed (L), for example. It is.

前記コントローラ27の制御フローを示す図3において、アシスト力決定サイクル処理がスタートすると、現在のペダル踏力及び変速段が検知される(ステップS1,S2)。例えば、現在の変速段が第1速であり、現在変速段ペダル踏力が図5(b)における(i)である場合、基準変速段相当ペダル負荷(図5(b)における(ii)参照、以下同じ)を、現在変速段ペダル踏力(i) ÷(基準変速段減速比/現在変速段減速比)により求める(ステップS3)。   In FIG. 3 showing the control flow of the controller 27, when the assist force determination cycle process is started, the current pedal depression force and gear position are detected (steps S1, S2). For example, when the current shift speed is the first speed and the current shift pedal pressure is (i) in FIG. 5B, the pedal load corresponding to the reference shift speed (see (ii) in FIG. 5B) The same applies to the following (step S3). The current gear step pedal depressing force (i) ÷ (reference gear speed reduction ratio / current gear speed reduction ratio).

そして前記基準変速段相当ペダル負荷に応じた基準変速段相当アシスト力(iii)を前記基準アシスト力制御特性(基準マップ)に基づいてマップ計算により求める(ステップS4)。   Then, the reference gear equivalent assist force (iii) corresponding to the reference gear equivalent pedal load is obtained by map calculation based on the reference assist force control characteristic (reference map) (step S4).

さらに現在のペダル踏力に対応したアシスト力(iv)を、基準変速段相当アシスト力(iii)×(基準変速段減速比/現在変速段減速比)より求め(ステップS5)、アシスト力決定サイクル処理は終了する。   Further, the assist force (iv) corresponding to the current pedal depression force is obtained from the reference shift speed equivalent assist force (iii) × (reference shift speed reduction ratio / current shift speed reduction ratio) (step S5), and assist force determination cycle processing Ends.

このように本実施形態では、現在変速段ペダル踏力(i) ÷(基準変速段減速比/現在変速段減速比)によって、基準変速段相当ペダル負荷(ii)を求めるとともに、該基準変速段相当ペダル負荷(ii)に応じた基準変速段アシスト力(iii)を基準マップ(図4)に基づいて求め、さらに該基準変速段アシスト力(iii)×(前記基準変速段減速比/現在変速段減速比)によって現在変速段アシスト力(iv)を求めるようにしたので、基準変速段(第3速)で最適のアシストフィーリングとなるように設定された基準マップから残りの変速段において最適のアシストフィーリングとなるアシスト力を求めることができ、このようにして仮想マップLmap が得られる。   As described above, in the present embodiment, the reference gear equivalent pedal load (ii) is obtained from the current gear step pedal depression force (i) ÷ (reference gear reduction ratio / current gear reduction ratio), and the reference gear equivalent. A reference gear assist force (iii) corresponding to the pedal load (ii) is obtained based on a reference map (FIG. 4), and the reference gear assist force (iii) × (the reference gear reduction ratio / the current gear). Since the current shift speed assist force (iv) is determined by the reduction ratio), the optimal shift speed is determined for the remaining shift speeds from the reference map set for optimal assist feeling at the reference shift speed (third speed). The assist force for assist feeling can be obtained, and the virtual map Lmap is obtained in this way.

その結果、第1〜第3速の何れにもおいても、同等の走行負荷−平均アシスト力特性が得られ(図6参照)、また同等の走行負荷−平均アシスト比特性が得られる(図7参照)。従って、変速段毎にアシスト力制御特性(マップ)を備える場合のような、複数の制御特性を開発するための開発コストの上昇及び記憶領域増量による部品コストの上昇を回避できる。   As a result, in any of the first to third speeds, an equivalent running load-average assist force characteristic is obtained (see FIG. 6), and an equivalent running load-average assist ratio characteristic is obtained (see FIG. 6). 7). Accordingly, it is possible to avoid an increase in development cost for developing a plurality of control characteristics and an increase in parts cost due to an increase in storage area, as in the case where an assist force control characteristic (map) is provided for each gear position.

また本実施形態では、変速機構22における変速段を直接検知するようしたので、簡単な構造で変速段を正確に検知できる。   In the present embodiment, since the gear position in the transmission mechanism 22 is directly detected, the gear position can be accurately detected with a simple structure.

なお、前記変速段の検知については、例えば図2に破線で示すように、車速制御のために元々備えられている前輪車速センサ34又は後輪車速センサ35により検知された車速と、モータ回転制御のために元々備えられているモータ回転センサ33により検知された電動モータ18の回転速度とから変速段を計算により推定するように構成しても良く、このようしたのが本願請求項4の発明である。   As for the detection of the gear position, for example, as indicated by a broken line in FIG. 2, the vehicle speed detected by the front wheel speed sensor 34 or the rear wheel speed sensor 35 originally provided for the vehicle speed control, and the motor rotation control. For this reason, the gear position may be estimated by calculation from the rotational speed of the electric motor 18 detected by the motor rotation sensor 33 originally provided for the purpose. It is.

車速と電動モータの回転とから変速段を計算により推定した場合、元々備えられている車速センサやモータ回転センサを利用できるので、部品の増加や構造の複雑化を回避しつつ容易に変速段を検知できる。   When the gear stage is estimated by calculation from the vehicle speed and the rotation of the electric motor, the vehicle speed sensor and motor rotation sensor that are originally provided can be used, so the gear stage can be easily adjusted while avoiding the increase in parts and the complexity of the structure. Can be detected.

また、前記実施形態では、基準変速段アシスト力制御特性が、マップにより記憶されている場合を説明したが、本発明の基準変速段アシスト力制御特性は、演算式で記憶されていても良い。   In the above embodiment, the case where the reference shift speed assist force control characteristic is stored as a map has been described. However, the reference shift speed assist force control characteristic of the present invention may be stored as an arithmetic expression.
