Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and a device for monitoring a tire condition of a vehicle when operating the vehicle with a trailer with the features of the independent claims.
- the invention describes a method or a device for monitoring an operating state of at least one tire of a vehicle as a function of the coupling of a trailer to the vehicle.
- the operating condition of the tire i.e. the tire condition is monitored for changes.
- Operating the vehicle with a trailer changes the distribution of the axle load between the front and rear axles on the towing vehicle. This manifests itself in changed
- Front-wheel drive relieves the load on the front axle when the trailer is in operation, and consequently the wheels of the front axle run with greater slip, ie they turn faster. With rear-wheel drives, higher contact forces in trailer operation lead to less drive slip.
- the essence of the invention now consists in that the monitoring of the tire condition based on the wheel speeds is modified on the basis of the detection of an operation of the vehicle with a trailer. This modification allows, for example, a tire pressure loss to be determined more precisely.
- a special development consists in that the tire condition is monitored by a tire condition variable representing the tire condition.
- the tire condition variable is formed on the basis of wheel dynamics variables, which in turn correspond to the wheel speeds on the wheels under consideration.
- the determination of the tire condition size can be done in different ways.
- An advantageous embodiment of the invention consists in forming a sum of at least two wheel speeds.
- the sum of the wheel speeds can be formed axially, for example front and rear axles, and side by side, for example right or left side.
- a difference can be formed between at least one wheel on the front axle and one wheel on the rear axle, in particular the difference formation being provided for diagonally arranged wheels.
- a further embodiment of the invention normalizes the determined sum or difference of the wheel speeds to the vehicle speed.
- Monitoring is also advantageous by comparing a tire condition variable representing the current operating condition of the tire with a calibration data record. It is provided that the calibration data record is formed at predetermined times. This can be done independently of the driver, for example when changing a tire or also by a command initiated by the driver of the vehicle. In the first case, the fact that a new tire requires a change in the tire condition and thus a recalibration of the data set is taken into account. In contrast, in the second case, the driver can be specific to before or during the React vehicle operation that cause a change in the condition of the tire and also require a recalibration.
- the trailer can - via its electrical coupling, via a mechanism in the trailer coupling, via a manually operated switch, via the vehicle's dynamic driving properties, the torque balance in particular being mentioned - via the contact forces on the wheels of the vehicle, and / or be recognized via the power balance of the electrical consumers.
- Calibration data set is modified depending on the tracking force.
- the contact force can be changed by changing the weight on the vehicle
- Trailer operation can be determined. If no exact determination of the weight is available, the calibration data set can also be modified using a previously defined constant.
- the tire condition is monitored on the basis of the determination of a current tire condition quantity.
- the currently determined tire condition variable deviates from the calibration data set a predetermined value, a pressure loss of a tire is recognized and a malfunction is reported.
- a supplement to the invention provides that when a malfunction is detected, i.e. to inform the driver acoustically and / or optically when a pressure loss occurs in a tire.
- the malfunction of the tire condition can be identified
- Control of a vehicle dynamics system located in the vehicle can be modified to stabilize the vehicle.
- a brake system is provided which can be controlled in a targeted manner based on the detected reduced tire pressure in a tire.
- active steering or chassis control can also be sensibly controlled in the vehicle on the basis of the detected loss of pressure in a tire, in order to enable the driver to drive the vehicle safely.
- FIG. 1 shows in a block diagram the detection of an operation of the vehicle with a trailer, the monitoring of the operating state of a tire on the basis of the wheel speeds and the detection of an error when the required target value is exceeded.
- FIG. 2 the initialization of the
- Figure 1 shows an embodiment for monitoring a tire condition during operation of the vehicle with a trailer.
- the wheel speeds representing the wheel dynamics of the wheels on each individual axle are fed to block 100.
- the wheel speeds of the wheels of the front axle v FL (110) or v FR (112) and the rear axle v HL (114) or v HR (116) are shown in FIG.
- Tire condition quantity determined which represents the tire condition of the wheels.
- An initialization such as can be done manually by the driver or automatically when the tire is changed, briefly sets a flag F ⁇ (105), ie flag F ⁇ changes from the value 0 to the value 1.
- Fj (105) generates a calibration data set KDi from the tire condition quantity, which is stored in the memory 150.
- trailer operation In order to identify trailer operation of the vehicle, the presence of a trailer 120 on the vehicle is checked in block 125.
- various parameters 122 are queried, which are typically associated with trailer operation.
- trailer operation can be based on the electrical coupling of the trailer 120 and / or via a mechanism in the trailer coupling and / or via a manually operated switch and / or via the contact forces on the wheels of the vehicle and / or via the power balance of the electrical Consumers and / or the dynamic properties of the vehicle, such as the torque balance, are determined.
- a flag F A (127) is set in block 125 and passed on to block 140. Based on the set flag F A (127) in block 140, a modification of the calibration data record KD is generated when monitoring the tire condition. In this modification,
- Weight or the bearing force of the trailer taken into account if the value can be determined by a corresponding sensor 130.
- Tire pressure loss and thus a malfunction 160 is detected, the driver is informed by an optical and / or acoustic display 170 that at least one of the tires has a pressure loss.
- the detection of a loss of tire pressure and the malfunction 160 can also be used to control a control system 190, which has a stabilizing effect on the driving behavior. This can be done by the control unit 190 sending a control signal to an active steering system, to a braking system or to other vehicle dynamics systems.
- One embodiment provides that the braking interventions, for example of an ABS system, are taken into account in a stabilizing manner on the basis of a detected reduced tire pressure.
- the determination of the calibration data set is shown in FIG. 2.
- Calibration data record KD X are stored. In the present exemplary embodiment, this is done by the assignment:
- FIG. 3 describes a detailed flow chart of the program for error detection when monitoring the
- step 300 In addition to the wheel speeds representing the wheel speeds of the front axle v FL (110) or v FR (112) and the rear axle v HL (114) or v HR (116), in step 300 also the Vehicle speed V car (118) read in. From these read-in values, in step 305 according to
- the tire condition variables RZi to RZ 4 are formed in accordance with the determination of the calibration data set.
- the flag F A (127) is used to determine whether the vehicle is in trailer operation.
- a difference that goes beyond at least one predetermined value SWi, a tire pressure loss and thus a malfunction 160 is detected in step 370. Because of this malfunction 160, an acoustic and / or visual display 170 or a control 190 for controlling a driving-stabilizing system can then be triggered.
- These driving stabilizing systems can be an active steering, a braking system or another driving dynamic system. If, on the other hand, the comparison of the current tire condition of the wheels RZ A with the corresponding calibration data record KDi does not result in the difference between Calibration data set and tire condition size determined where the program will end until the next scheduled start.
- Weight value of the trailer is available, in step 335 the change quantity of the threshold value ⁇ SW is assigned a constant, previously empirically determined value.
- Rear axle can be selected.
- step 340 the current tire condition of the wheels RZ X is compared with the calibration data set ⁇ D ⁇ .
- a malfunction 160 is identified in step 345. by virtue of This malfunction 160 can then be controlled by an acoustic and / or visual display 170 or a control 190 for controlling a brake system. If, on the other hand, the difference between the calibration data record and the tire condition size is not sufficiently exceeded, the program is ended until the next scheduled start.
