Abstract
Responsive to accelerator pedal release and a speed of a vehicle being less than a threshold in a presence of indication that available powertrain torque has been reduced for at least a predetermined period of time during an absence of brake pedal engagement, a controller operates friction brakes to bring the vehicle to a stop. Responsive to accelerator pedal release and the speed being less than the threshold in an absence of the indication that available powertrain torque has been reduced and brake pedal engagement, the controller operates an electric machine and not the friction brakes to bring the vehicle to a stop.

It is to be understood, however, that the disclosed embodiments are merely examples and other embodiments can take various and alternative forms. The figures are not necessarily to scale; some features could be exaggerated or minimized to show details of particular components. Therefore, specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting, but merely as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the art to variously employ the present invention. As those of ordinary skill in the art will understand, various features illustrated and described with reference to any one of the figures can be combined with features illustrated in one or more other figures to produce embodiments that are not explicitly illustrated or described. The combinations of features illustrated provide representative embodiments for typical applications. Various combinations and modifications of the features consistent with the teachings of this disclosure, however, could be desired for particular applications or implementations.
- One pedal drive may give more control to the accelerator pedal with increased lift pedal regenerative braking and the ability to bring the vehicle to a stop without input from the brake pedal on a range of grades. It may be enabled responsive to driver input, such as a button press or speed being less than some threshold.
- A one pedal drive low speed controller may control the vehicle to a complete stop from low speeds via powertrain torque modification when the vehicle is in one pedal drive mode and the customer has tipped out of the accelerator pedal. Although the primary mode of operation is to command the vehicle to a stop using powertrain torque, there may be situations in which the low speed controller may not bring the vehicle to a stop without support from friction brakes. Powertrain charge limits and motor limitations for example can keep the powertrain from being able to command the required decelerative powertrain torque.
- There may also be conditions in which a brake control module commanding friction brake torque is more suited to control the vehicle to a stop. There may be a need to arbitrate one pedal drive low speed controller operations and brake control module operations during events such as anti-lock braking, brake drag control, and traction control, which can involve automatic activation of friction brakes and/or a reduction in available powertrain torque (available positive torque or available negative torque as the case may be) in an absence of driver brake pedal input, to obtain consistency with low vehicle speed tip-outs. As such, the one pedal drive low speed controller may send a request to the brake control module to control the vehicle to a stop using friction brakes for the following example reasons: powertrain charge limits prohibit the low speed controller from commanding powertrain torque to bring the vehicle to a complete stop; motor limitations prohibit the low speed controller from commanding powertrain torque to bring the vehicle to a complete stop; a brake drag control event is being performed by the brake control module; an anti-lock brake event is being performed by the brake control module; a traction control event is being performed by the brake control module; or the driver fully tips out of the accelerator pedal at some calibratable low speed.
- The low speed controller may evaluate each of the above reasons for some calibratable time that depends on the reason to confirm its validity. For a valid reason, the brake request may be sent when vehicle speed is below a calibratable threshold that also depends on the reason. The speed condition ensures that the request is not be rejected by the brake control module. Upon receiving this request, the brake control module may target zero vehicle speed and control the vehicle to stop while arbitrating the request with any existing drag control, anti-lock braking, or traction control events, etc.

In regenerative mode, thepower electronics module 28 may convert the three phase AC current from theelectric machines 12 acting as generators to DC voltage compatible with thetraction battery 22. - In addition to providing energy for propulsion, the
traction battery 22 may provide energy for other vehicle electrical systems. Thevehicle 10 may include a DC/DC converter module 30 that converts the high voltage DC output from thehigh voltage bus 26 to a low voltage DC level of alow voltage bus 32 that is compatible withlow voltage loads 34. An output of the DC/DC converter module 30 may be electrically coupled to an auxiliary battery 36 (e.g., 12V battery) for charging theauxiliary battery 36. Thelow voltage loads 34 may be electrically coupled to theauxiliary battery 36 via thelow voltage bus 32. One or more high voltageelectrical loads 38 may be coupled to thehigh voltage bus 26. The high voltageelectrical loads 38 may have an associated controller that operates and controls the high voltageelectrical loads 38 when appropriate. Examples of high voltageelectrical loads 38 include a fan, an electric heating element, an air conditioning compressor, etc. -
Wheel brakes 40 may be also provided for braking and preventing motion of thevehicle 10. Thewheel brakes 40 may be hydraulically actuated, electrically actuated, or some combination thereof. Thewheel brakes 40 may be a part of abrake system 42. Thebrake system 42 may include other components to operate thewheel brakes 40. For simplicity,FIG. 1 depicts a single connection between thebrake system 42 and one of thewheel brakes 40. A connection between thebrake system 42 and theother wheel brakes 40 is implied. Thebrake system 42 may include a controller to monitor and coordinate its activities. Thebrake system 42 may monitor the brake components and control thewheel brakes 40. Thebrake system 42 may respond to driver commands and may also operate autonomously to implement features such as stability control. The controller of thebrake system 42 may implement a method of applying a requested brake force when requested by another controller or sub-function. -
System controllers 44 may further be present to coordinate the operation of the various components. With reference toFIG. 2 , thesystem controllers 44 include a one pedal drivelow speed controller 46 and apowertrain command module 48. The powertrain command module issues powertrain torque limits and motor torque limits, which are received by the one pedal drivelow speed controller 46. These limits may be defined by powertrain components temperatures and other factors as known in the art. Thebrake system 42 includes a brake control module 50 that sets flags corresponding to events such as drag control, traction control, antilock braking events, etc. These flags are detected by the one pedal drivelow speed controller 46, which generates a friction brake assisted stop request according to the algorithms contemplated herein. Responsive to receiving the frication brake assisted stop request, the brake control module 50 generates a friction brake pressure command for thefriction brakes 40. - Electronic modules in the
vehicle 10, such as those shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 , may communicate via one or more vehicle networks. The vehicle networks may include a plurality of channels for communication. One channel of the vehicle network may be a serial bus such as a Controller Area Network (CAN). One of the channels of the vehicle network may include an Ethernet network defined by Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802 family of standards. Additional channels of the vehicle network may include discrete connections between modules and may include power signals from theauxiliary battery 36. Different signals may be transferred over different channels of the vehicle network. For example, video signals may be transferred over a high speed channel (e.g., Ethernet) while control signals may be transferred over CAN or discrete signals. The vehicle network may include any hardware and software components that aid in transferring signals and data between modules. The vehicle network is not shown inFIG. 1 , but it may be implied that the vehicle network may connect to any electronic modules that are present in thevehicle 10. - With reference to
FIG. 3 , atoperation 52 it is determined whether vehicle speed is less than a threshold. If no, the algorithm returns tooperation 52. If yes, it is determined atoperation 54 whether the accelerator pedal has been released atoperation 54. If no, the algorithm returns tooperation 52. If yes, atoperation 56 it is determined whether the brake pedal has been engaged. If yes, the friction brakes are operated to brake the vehicle to a stop atoperation 58. If no, it is determined atoperation 60 whether the friction brakes are automatically operating. If no, atoperation 62 it is determined whether available powertrain stopping torque has been limited. A battery state of charge greater than a threshold (e.g., 85%) or an electric machine temperature greater than a threshold, for example, may result in limits on available powertrain stopping torque. Thus, battery voltage, electric machine temperature, etc. may be compared against corresponding thresholds to determine whether available powertrain stopping torque has been limited. If yes, the algorithm proceeds tooperation 58. If no, the electric machine is operated to brake the vehicle atoperation 64. Returning tooperation 60, if yes, it is determined atoperation 66 whether a predetermined time period has elapsed. If yes, the algorithm proceeds tooperation 58. If no, the algorithm proceeds tooperation 64. - Aside from friction brakes automatically operating, other conditions may also be considered at
operation 60. Indication that available powertrain torque has been reduced can also be considered. As suggested with reference toFIG. 2 , flags are often broadcast/set during brake drag control and traction control events. Determination as to whether such flags are present using typical techniques can thus be used to assess whether available powertrain torque has been reduced. Moreover, the predetermined time period ofoperation 66 may depend on the cause of the indication that available powertrain torque has been reduced: Brake drag control may correspond to a first predetermined period of time and traction control may correspond to a second predetermined period of time different than the first, etc. Moreover, data from typical sensors (e.g., wheels speed sensors, accelerator pedal position sensor, brake pedal sensor, battery voltage sensors, etc.) may be used to collect the data necessary to make the determinations described above. - Control logic or functions performed by the controllers are represented by flow charts or similar diagrams in the various figures. These figures provide representative control strategies and/or logic that may be implemented using one or more processing strategies such as event-driven, interrupt-driven, multi-tasking, multi-threading, and the like.
