Torque control unit 16, torque generating means 20 for generating engine torque corresponding to torque at engine startup, and initialization means 30 for initializing main shaft 12 to a starting position after engine startup is completed. do.

The start motor 11 receives rotational power until the engine is started by receiving power from the battery 19 shown in FIG. 2 by starting operation of an ignition key (not shown) or turning on a driving switch.

The main shaft 12 is supported by a pair of supports 17 installed between the torque cell 151 of the sensing means 15 and the brake 141 of the load generating means 14 and at the rear end of the clutch.

When the flywheel 17 is coupled to the main shaft 12 by the clutch 22 of the torque generating means 20, the coupling between the start motor 11 and the ring gear 13 is released.

As shown in FIG. 2, the ring gear 13 is coupled to the start motor 11 during initial driving to rotate the main shaft 12 by the rotational power of the start motor 11.

In the present invention, the start and stop operations are repeated tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of times in the same condition as the driving conditions when starting the engine to test the wear degree, durability, and the like of the ring gear 13.

The load generating means 14 includes a pressure generator 142 for generating pressure under the control of the torque controller 16 and a pressure regulator for adjusting the pressure generated from the pressure generator 142 under the control of the torque controller; It includes a brake 141 that operates as a load that interferes with the rotation of the main shaft 12 by using the pressure adjusted from the pressure regulator.

The brake 141 is provided with a disk-shaped pad that generates a load by the friction between the rotating plate and the fixed plate provided on the main shaft 12.

The pressure generating unit 142 is provided with a compressor that generates air by compressing air or a pump that generates hydraulic pressure by compressing a fluid.

The pressure controller sets the servo valve 143 and the maximum load amount for each engine type, the opening and closing amount of which is adjusted according to the voltage level of the control signal of the torque control unit 16 that implements the load change amount according to the engine rotation as a function of the engine rotation angle, and the torque And a release valve 144 that opens and closes to selectively release the pressure adjusted by the servovalve 143 according to whether the control signal of the controller 16 is on or off.

The release valve 144 is preferably provided as a solenoid valve to open and close according to the control signal of the torque control unit 16.

The sensing means 15 is a torque cell 151 for detecting torque generated from the main shaft 12 by the rotation of the ring gear 13 and a rotation sensor 152 for detecting the rotation speed of the main shaft 12. It includes.

The torque cell 151 and the rotation detection sensor 152 transmit a detection signal according to the detected torque and the rotation speed to the torque control unit 16.

On the other hand, the torque generated during the ignition key on operation in the actual engine is as shown in FIG.

4 is a graph illustrating a torque curve generated when the engine is started.

As shown in Fig. 4, the torque curve is a load generation section A in which the rotational power generated from the start motor 11 and the load generated from each cylinder work together by the on operation of the ignition key, and each cylinder of the engine. In the engine starting section (B) to sequentially start the fuel is ignited in and the initialization section (C) to move the main shaft 12 to the initial position after the engine start stop sequentially.

This torque curve is equally applied to the vehicle ring gear test apparatus according to the present invention.

In detail, in the load generation section A, the torque curve appears as a cosine curve as the rotational power generated from the start motor 11 and the load generated from the load generating means 14 simultaneously act.

For example, in the case of a four-stroke N-cylinder engine, since two compressions of N turns occur, the period of the torque curve is 4π / N.

Therefore, the torque curve is defined by Equation 1 below.

Figure 112010022032037-pat00006

Where T = current torque transmitted to the ring gear by the start motor,

T max = the maximum torque of the torque transmitted to the ring gear by the start motor,

N = number of cylinders in a four-stroke engine,

θ = angle of rotation of the main shaft.

Accordingly, the torque control unit 16 controls the load generation means 14 in accordance with the detection signal transmitted from the detection means 15 to make the same condition as the driving conditions generated in the actual engine.

For example, the torque controller 16 turns off the servo valve 143 and the release valve 144, and then compares the torque detected from the torque cell 151 with the preset reference torque in the load generation section A. FIG. .

As a result of the comparison, if the detected torque is greater than the reference torque, the torque control unit 16 controls the input voltage of the servovalve and controls the release valve 144 in the off state.

On the other hand, if the detected torque is less than the reference torque, the torque control unit 16 controls the release valve 144 to be driven on, and the input voltage of the servo valve 143 to the maximum set value Tmax. By constantly setting and controlling correspondingly, the responsiveness in the next cycle is improved.

In the engine start section B, the flywheel 17 and the main shaft 12 are rotated by the torque generating means 20 at the engine torque and the target speed, and the start motor 11 and the ring gear 13 are connected. The bond is released.

Accordingly, the torque curve sensed by the torque cell 151 decreases with a negative value from the time of starting the engine as shown in FIG. 4, and stops driving the torque generating means 20 so as to stop the engine. When the start is completed, the main shaft 12 is rotated for a predetermined time by the inertia of the flywheel 17 and gradually returns to '0'.

Subsequently, in the initialization section C, the torque curve maintains a value of '0'.

Torque generating means 20 is a clutch for selectively coupling the overrun motor 21, the flywheel 17 and the main shaft 12 to generate the rotational power is supplied to the battery 19, the power supply to the flywheel 17 ( 22 and the overrun control unit 23 which controls the clutch 22 to engage the flywheel 17 and the main shaft 12 when the torque generated by the overrun motor 21 reaches the engine torque corresponding to the torque at engine start-up. ).

As shown in FIG. 3, a rotation gear of the overrun motor 21 is provided with a drive gear or a pulley, and the drive gear or the pulley is driven with the driven gear or the belt pulley coupled to the flywheel 17 using the belt 24. Combined.

The clutch 22 is initially driven in a state where the driven gear or the belt pulley of the flywheel 17 and the main shaft 12 are separated from each other, and the flywheel 17 and the main shaft 12 are controlled by the overrun control unit 23. To combine.

The overrun control unit 23 engages the main shaft 12 and the flywheel 17 when the torque of the flywheel 17 rotated by the overrun motor 22 reaches the engine torque corresponding to the torque generated at engine start-up. The clutch 22 is controlled.

The initialization means 30 is a position detection sensor 31 for detecting a display position previously displayed on the main shaft 12, and an initialization motor 32 for issuing rotational power to rotate the display position of the main shaft 12 to an initial position. And an initialization control unit 33 for controlling the driving of the initialization motor 32 according to the position detected by the position detection sensor 31.

As shown in FIG. 3, the rotation shaft of the initialization motor 32 is provided with a driving gear or a driving pulley, and the driving gear or the driving pulley is coupled to the main shaft 12 using the belt 34. Combined with.

In the present embodiment, the vehicle ring gear test apparatus 10 has been described as having a torque controller 16, an overrun controller 23, and an initialization controller 33, but the present invention is not necessarily limited thereto.

That is, the torque control unit 16, the overrun control unit 23 and the initialization control unit 33 may be changed to be provided as one control module that performs each function at the same time.

Hereinafter, a vehicle ring gear test method according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

In the vehicle ring gear test method according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, after driving the start motor 11 to drive the main shaft 12 via the ring gear 13, the rotation speed and torque of the main shaft 12 are measured. The rotational force of the load generation section A and the overrun motor 21 which senses and generates a load that hinders rotation of the main shaft 12 according to the torque curve shown in FIG. 4 based on the detected rotation speed and torque. When the rotational torque of the rotating flywheel 17 reaches the engine torque, the engine starting section B for coupling the main shaft 12 and the flywheel 17 and the main shaft 12 where the rotation is completed are initialized. The initialization section (C) to initialize to sequentially repeat.

An operation of each section will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 5 to 8.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the load generation section, FIG. 6 is a graph according to the operation of FIG. 5, FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the engine start section, and FIG. 8 illustrates the operation of the initialization section. It is a flow chart.

First, the operation of the load generation section will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 5.

As shown in FIG. 5, when the ignition key or the drive switch is turned on while the servo valve 143 and the release valve 144 are turned off (S10), the start motor 11 applies the battery 19 power. It is received and driven (S11).

Accordingly, the ring gear 13 coupled to the start motor 11 rotates so that the main shaft 12 rotates.

Subsequently, the torque control unit 16 compares whether the driving time of the start motor 11 is within the torque adjustment time set to generate a load to adjust the torque (S12).

If the driving time exceeds the torque adjustment time, the flow proceeds to step S10.

On the other hand, when the driving time is within the torque adjustment time, the torque control unit 16 detects the rotational speed and torque of the main shaft 12 using the rotation sensor 152 and the torque cell 151 (S13), The brake 141 of the load generating means 14 is controlled according to the detected rotation speed and torque.

To this end, the torque control unit 16 checks whether the torque of the main shaft 12 is the reference torque T r by Equations 2 and 3 below (S14).

Figure 112010022032037-pat00007

If N <6

Figure 112010022032037-pat00008

If N≥6
Where N = number of cylinders of the four-stroke engine,
T max = the maximum torque of the torque transmitted to the ring gear by the start motor,

T r = reference torque.

If the detected torque is greater than the reference torque T r , the torque controller 16 controls the voltage input to the servovalve 143 as shown in section A1 of the graph shown in FIG. 6A, and FIG. As shown in the graph of 6 (b), the release valve 144 is controlled to the off state (S15).

On the other hand, when the sensed torque is smaller than the reference torque, the torque control unit 16 controls to drive the release valve 144 on as shown in the graph shown in Fig. 6 (b), shown in Fig. 6 (a) Like the A2 section of the graph, the voltage input to the servovalve 143 is controlled to be set to be constant so as to correspond to the maximum set value Tmax (S16). This improves the response in the next cycle.

As described above, as the sections A1 and A2 are alternately performed in the load generation section A, the torque curve of the load generation section A is a load generated in each cylinder of the general engine as shown in FIG. It is output in the form of cosine curve in the same way as the condition output by.

After performing step S15 or step S16, it is checked whether the number of repetitions is set in advance (S17), and the process proceeds to step S12 until the number of repetitions is repeated, depending on whether the driving time is within the torque adjustment time. Optionally repeat step S16.

Next, the operation of the engine start section will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 7.

As shown in FIG. 7, in the state in which the clutch 22 is turned off to release engagement of the main shaft 12 and the flywheel 17 before entering the engine start section B (S20), the overrun motor ( 21 starts driving by receiving battery power (S21).

Subsequently, the overrun control unit 23 checks whether the rotational speed of the flywheel 17 reaches a predetermined target speed corresponding to the engine torque for starting the engine (S22).

Accordingly, when the rotation speed of the flywheel 17 is smaller than the target speed, the overrun control unit 23 continuously proceeds to step S21 until the rotation speed reaches the target speed to control the driving of the overrun motor 21. .

When the rotational speed of the flywheel 17 reaches the target speed and the driving time of the main shaft 12 reaches the engine starting time (S23), the overrun control unit 23 turns on the clutch 22 to operate the flywheel ( 17) and the main shaft 17 is coupled (S24).

At this time, the coupling between the start motor 11 and the ring gear 13 is released by the on operation of the clutch, and the main shaft 12 is rotated by a torque equal to or less than a preset torque by the load generating means 14. In response to the torque of the flywheel 17 is received overrun (overrun) occurs.

As such, the present invention transmits torque at engine start to the main shaft using a load generating means.

FIG. 8 is an operation state diagram for describing the operation of the engine start section shown in FIG. 7.

The sum of the kinetic energy of the main shaft 12 and the kinetic energy of the flywheel 17 before starting the engine shown in FIG. 8A is applied to the clutch 22 after starting the engine shown in FIG. 8B. It is equal to the kinetic energy of the main shaft 12 and the flywheel 17 coupled to each other by.

This can be summarized as Equation 4 below.

Figure 112010022032037-pat00009

Where J 1 = moment of inertia of the main shaft,

J 2 = moment of inertia of the flywheel,

ω 1 = rotational speed of the main shaft by the start motor before engine start,

ω 2 = rotational speed of main shaft and flywheel after engine start,

ω 3 = rotational speed of the flywheel before engine start.

Therefore, in order to implement the same as the actual engine starting conditions, the moment of inertia of the flywheel 17 applied to the ring gear test apparatus 10 for a vehicle is calculated by Equation 5 below.

Therefore, the target speed is preferably set using the moment of inertia J 2 of the flywheel 17 calculated as described above.

Figure 112010022032037-pat00010

In addition, the maximum torque TC max of the clutch is defined as in Equation 6 below.

Figure 112010022032037-pat00011

Therefore, the clutch 22 applied to the ring gear test apparatus 10 for a vehicle has a value within Δt calculated by Equation 7 below when the flywheel 17 and the main shaft 12 are in contact with each other. It is preferable to select to have.

Figure 112010022032037-pat00012

Subsequently, the overrun control unit S23 controls to stop the driving of the overrun motor 21 so that engine start is stopped.

Next, the operation of the initialization section will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 9.

When the rotation of the main shaft 12 by the inertia of the flywheel 17 is finished in the engine start section (B), as shown in Figure 9, the position sensor 31 checks the current position of the main shaft 12 In order to detect the display position displayed in advance (S30).

The initialization controller 33 compares the display position detected by the position detection sensor 31 with the initial position for each cycle calculated by Equation 8 below (S31).

Figure 112010022032037-pat00013

Where θ i = initial position angle (rad) for each cycle,

N = number of cylinders in a four-stroke engine,
