Definitions
- the present invention provides an input member that is drive-coupled to an internal combustion engine, an intermediate member that is drive-coupled to a rotating electrical machine, an output member that is drive-coupled to a wheel, and an input member and an intermediate member that selectively drive-couple.
- the present invention relates to a control device that controls a vehicle drive device including one engagement device and a second engagement device that selectively drives and connects an intermediate member and an output member.
- Patent Document 1 a device described in Patent Document 1 below is already known as a control device that controls the vehicle drive device as described above.
- the vehicle drive device of Patent Document 1 is configured as a drive device for a so-called 1-motor parallel type hybrid vehicle, and selectively drives and connects an internal combustion engine [engine E] and a rotating electrical machine [motor generator MG].
- Second clutch CL2 Second clutch CL2].
- the control device described in Patent Document 1 includes an EV traveling mode in which traveling is performed using only the torque of the rotating electrical machine as a power source at least in a released state of the first engaging device and in a fully engaged state of the second engaging device.
- a WSC traveling mode in which the vehicle is driven while the torque of the internal combustion engine is included in the power source in the fully engaged state of the engaging device and the slip engaged state of the second engaging device, and the fully engaged state and the first of the first engaging device.
- a plurality of modes including a power generation mode in which the rotating electrical machine generates power with the torque of the internal combustion engine in the released state of the two-engagement device can be realized.
- this control apparatus is normally comprised so that WSC driving mode may be selected, when starting a vehicle from a vehicle stop state.
- the second engagement device slips, so the second engagement device generates heat. If the second engagement device overheats due to repeated heat generation or the like, problems such as a decrease in durability of the second engagement device occur. Therefore, the control device described in Patent Literature 1 is based on the second engagement device. When the temperature exceeds a predetermined temperature, the power generation mode is selected while the vehicle is stopped, and the rotating electrical machine is caused to generate power by the torque of the internal combustion engine. Then, after obtaining a sufficient amount of electricity stored, the first engagement device is released and the second engagement device is fully engaged to start the vehicle in the EV travel mode. Thereby, it is possible to avoid the second engagement device from slipping and to prevent a decrease in durability due to overheating of the second engagement device.
- the rotating electrical machine In the EV travel mode in which the first engagement device is in a released state and travels using only the torque of the rotating electrical machine as a power source, the rotating electrical machine must output torque for driving the vehicle, and thus generate electric power. I can't. That is, the power generation of the rotating electrical machine in the power generation mode is interrupted by the start of the vehicle. Therefore, for example, when the traveling time at a low vehicle speed is longer than the stopping time of the vehicle, there is a possibility that a sufficient power storage amount cannot be secured.
- an input member that is drivingly connected to an internal combustion engine, an intermediate member that is drivingly connected to a rotating electrical machine, an output member that is drivingly connected to a wheel, and the input member and the intermediate member are selectively driven.
- a characteristic configuration of a control device that controls a vehicle drive device including a first engagement device to be connected, and a second engagement device that selectively drives and connects the intermediate member and the output member The difference in rotational speed between the engagement members on both sides of the first engagement device is defined as a first differential rotation speed, and the difference in rotation speed between the engagement members on both sides of the second engagement device is defined as a second differential rotation speed.
- the rotating electrical machine From the state where the rotating electrical machine generates power in a state where the first engagement device does not have the first differential rotational speed and the second engaging device does not transmit the driving force, the rotating electrical machine generates power.
- the first engagement device is shifted from a state where the driving force is transmitted without having the first differential rotation speed to a state where the driving force is transmitted while having the first differential rotation speed, and the second engagement is performed.
- the apparatus has a differential rotation control region in which the apparatus is shifted from a state where the driving force is not transmitted to a state where the driving force is transmitted while having the second differential rotational speed.
- driving connection refers to a state where two rotating elements are connected so as to be able to transmit a driving force, and the two rotating elements are connected so as to rotate integrally, or It is used as a concept including a state in which two rotating elements are connected so as to be able to transmit a driving force via one or more transmission members.
- a transmission member include various members that transmit rotation at the same speed or a variable speed, and include, for example, a shaft, a gear mechanism, a belt, a chain, and the like.
- the “rotary electric machine” is used as a concept including a motor (electric motor), a generator (generator), and a motor / generator that performs both functions of the motor and the generator as necessary.
- the state in which a rotary electric machine is generating electric power at the time of start of a vehicle can be maintained by execution of specific start control.
- the first engagement device is shifted to the state of transmitting the driving force while having the first differential rotation speed, and the second engagement device is having the second differential rotation speed. Since the driving force is transferred to the state, the torque of the internal combustion engine can be transmitted to the wheel side via the first engagement device and the second engagement device. Therefore, it is possible to start the vehicle while maintaining the power generation state.
- the first engagement device is compared with the case where the first engagement device is maintained in a state of transmitting the driving force without having the first differential rotation speed during the execution of the specific start control.
- the second differential rotation speed of the second engagement device By increasing the first differential rotation speed of the combined device, the second differential rotation speed of the second engagement device can be decreased, and the slip amount of the second engagement device can be reduced. Therefore, the calorific value of the second engagement device can be reduced to suppress overheating, and a decrease in durability of the second engagement device can be suppressed. Therefore, it is possible to realize a control device that can start the vehicle while maintaining the power generation state from the state where the power generation is performed while the vehicle is stopped, while suppressing the decrease in the durability of the second engagement device.
- the differential rotation control area is set as a first control area, and after the first control area, the rotation speed of the output member is set in a state where the second engagement device does not have the second differential rotation speed.
- a second control for causing the first engagement device to shift from a state in which the driving force is transmitted while having the first differential rotational speed to a state in which the driving force is transmitted without having the first differential rotational speed as it rises A configuration having a region is preferable.
- the first differential rotational speed in the second control region after the first control region, the first differential rotational speed can be gradually decreased as the rotational speed of the output member increases. Therefore, it can suppress that the 1st engagement apparatus overheats and can suppress the fall of durability of the 1st engagement apparatus. Further, it is possible to ensure a large torque of the internal combustion engine that is transmitted to the wheel side via the first engagement device.
- a third control area in which the rotation speed of the intermediate member is maintained at a predetermined value and the second differential rotation speed is gradually reduced is defined as the first control area and the first control area. It is preferable to further have a configuration between two control regions.
- an oil pump that is drivingly connected to the intermediate member and generates hydraulic pressure to be supplied to the first engagement device and the second engagement device in an operating state, and the rotation of the intermediate member in the third control region. It is preferable that the rotating electrical machine is controlled so that the speed is a rotational speed at which a supply hydraulic pressure required for both the first engagement device and the second engagement device can be secured by the oil pump. is there.
- the rotation speed of the output member when the rotation speed of the output member is increased in the third control region, the rotation speed of the intermediate member is maintained at a predetermined value so that the second differential rotation speed disappears as described above. The occurrence of shock can be suppressed.
- the rotation speed of the intermediate member is maintained at a predetermined value, whereby the first engagement device and the second engagement device are driven by the oil pump that is drivingly connected to the intermediate member that rotates at the predetermined rotation speed.
- the supply hydraulic pressure required for both of the engagement devices can be ensured. Therefore, it is unnecessary to provide the vehicle drive device to be controlled with another hydraulic power source that can operate independently of the vehicle driving force source, such as an electric oil pump. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost of the vehicle drive device by omitting the installation of such other hydraulic pressure sources.
- the second differential rotation speed is maintained at a predetermined target differential rotation speed by increasing the rotation speed of the intermediate member in accordance with the increase of the rotation speed of the output member. It is preferable that the four control areas are further provided between the first control area and the third control area.
- the second differential rotational speed is temporarily maintained at the predetermined target differential rotational speed in the fourth control region before the rotational speed of the intermediate member is maintained at the predetermined value in the third control region.
- the second differential rotation speed can be reduced at an early stage as compared with a case where the first control region directly shifts to the third control region. Therefore, having such a fourth control region in front of the third control region effectively reduces the amount of heat generated by the second engagement device and favorably suppresses a decrease in durability of the second engagement device.
- the value of the “target differential rotation speed” is, for example, a predetermined constant value, or the rotation speed of the engagement member downstream of the second engagement device in the power transmission path connecting the intermediate member and the output member.
- a value determined as a function of can be adopted.
- the second engagement device is further provided with a second differential rotation speed through a state in which the drive force is transmitted while having the second differential rotation speed from a state in which the drive force is not transmitted. Instead, it is preferable to make a transition to a state where the driving force is transmitted.
- the second engagement device since the second engagement device is shifted to the state in which the driving force is transmitted while having the second differential rotation speed in the first control region, for example, the set time of the first control region is constant. In some cases, the second differential rotational speed can be eliminated relatively quickly. Therefore, the calorific value of the second engagement device can be more effectively reduced, and a decrease in durability of the second engagement device can be more effectively suppressed.
- the hydraulic pressure supplied to the first engagement device is controlled so that the first differential rotation speed becomes a predetermined magnitude so that the rotation speed matches the target rotation speed determined based on the required power generation amount.
- Controlling the rotating electrical machine, controlling the hydraulic pressure supplied to the second engagement device so that the torque transmitted to the output member matches the required driving force required to drive the vehicle, and the required power generation A control region for outputting to the internal combustion engine control unit an internal combustion engine control command for causing the internal combustion engine to output a torque that matches the sum of the power generation torque provided to the rotating electrical machine to generate the amount and the required driving force It is preferable to have a configuration including:
- the power generation torque and the required driving force for generating the required power generation amount by the output of the predetermined internal combustion engine control command to the internal combustion engine control unit and the control of the hydraulic pressure supplied to the first engagement device can be appropriately transmitted from the internal combustion engine side to the rotating electrical machine side via the first engagement device. Further, by controlling the rotating electrical machine so that the rotational speed of the rotating electrical machine coincides with the predetermined target rotational speed, it is possible to appropriately secure the power generation amount corresponding to the required power generation amount. Furthermore, by controlling the hydraulic pressure supplied to the second engagement device, torque that matches the required driving force can be transmitted to the output member, and the vehicle can travel appropriately.
- the hydraulic pressure supplied to the second engagement device is controlled so as to change the first differential rotation speed and the second differential rotation speed in a desired form during the specific start control. Is preferred.

Therefore, by controlling the hydraulic pressure supplied to the first engagement device, it is possible to transmit a torque having an appropriate magnitude to the wheel side via the first engagement device. From this point of view, it is preferable that the “predetermined rotational speed” is set to a rotational speed required for the internal combustion engine to output a share of the driving torque for the internal combustion engine.
- operation control of the internal combustion engine and the rotating electrical machine is performed so that a driving torque corresponding to a required driving force for running the vehicle is transmitted to the wheels, and a transmission torque capacity of the first engagement device is It is preferable that the hydraulic pressure supplied to the first engagement device is controlled so as to be a value corresponding to the share of the internal combustion engine in the driving torque.
- the torque corresponding to the transmission torque capacity of the first engagement device is set via the first engagement device with the share of the internal combustion engine of the drive torque output from the internal combustion engine as the upper limit. Transmission from the internal combustion engine side to the wheel side is possible. Therefore, by controlling the hydraulic pressure supplied to the first engagement device, the share of the internal combustion engine in the drive torque can be appropriately transmitted to the wheel side via the first engagement device. it can.

Abstract
Description
また、「回転電機」は、モータ(電動機)、ジェネレータ(発電機)、及び必要に応じてモータ及びジェネレータの双方の機能を果たすモータ・ジェネレータのいずれをも含む概念として用いている。
また、上記の特徴構成では、特定発進制御の実行中、第一係合装置が第一差回転速度を有さずに駆動力を伝達する状態に維持される場合と比較して、第一係合装置の第一差回転速度を増大させることによって第二係合装置の第二差回転速度を減少させ、第二係合装置のスリップ量を低減させることができる。よって、第二係合装置の発熱量を低減してその過熱を抑制し、第二係合装置の耐久性の低下を抑制することができる。
従って、第二係合装置の耐久性の低下を抑制ししつつ、停車中に発電を行っている状態からその発電状態を維持したままで車両を発進させることができる制御装置が実現できる。
また、この構成によれば、中間部材の回転速度が所定の値に維持されることで、当該所定回転速度で回転する中間部材に駆動連結されるオイルポンプにより、第一係合装置及び第二係合装置の双方に必要とされる供給油圧を確保することができる。よって、制御対象となる車両用駆動装置に、例えば電動式オイルポンプ等の、車両の駆動力源とは独立して作動可能な他の油圧源を備える必要がなくなる。従って、そのような他の油圧源の設置を省略して、車両用駆動装置の製造コストを低減することが可能となる。
なお、この場合における「目標差回転速度」の値としては、例えば所定の一定値や、中間部材と出力部材とを結ぶ動力伝達経路における第二係合装置の下流側の係合部材の回転速度の関数として定まる値等を採用することができる。
なお、このような観点からは、「所定回転速度」は、駆動トルクのうちの内燃機関の負担分を当該内燃機関が出力するために必要となる回転速度に設定されていることが好ましい。
また、この構成では、第二係合装置を介して車輪側に伝達されるトルクの上限値は、比較的小さな値に設定されるクリープトルクに等しくなる。係合装置における発熱量は、当該係合装置を介して伝達されるトルクの大きさと当該係合装置における差回転速度との積に比例するため、上記の構成を採用することで、第二係合装置における発熱量をより低減することができる。よって、第二係合装置が過熱するのをより有効に抑制して、当該第二係合装置の耐久性の低下を有効に抑制することができる。
この構成によれば、発熱量が大きくなり易く過熱による耐久性低下の問題が生じ易いと言える変速機構の発進用係合装置を適切に保護しつつ、停車中の発電状態を維持したままで車両を発進させることができる。
本発明に係る制御装置の第一の実施形態について、図面を参照して説明する。本実施形態に係る制御装置3は、駆動装置1を制御対象とする駆動装置用制御装置である。ここで、本実施形態に係る駆動装置1は、車両6の車輪15の駆動力源として内燃機関11及び回転電機12の一方又は双方を用いる車両(ハイブリッド車両)を駆動するための駆動装置(ハイブリッド車両用駆動装置)である。この駆動装置1は、いわゆる1モータパラレルタイプのハイブリッド車両用の駆動装置として構成されている。
まず、本実施形態に係る駆動装置1の全体構成について説明する。図1に示すように、この駆動装置1は、車両6の第一の駆動力源としての内燃機関11に駆動連結される入力軸Iと、車両6の第二の駆動力源としての回転電機12と、回転電機12に駆動連結される中間軸Mと、変速機構13と、車輪15に駆動連結される出力軸Oと、を備えている。これらの構成は、ケース(駆動装置ケース)内に収容されている。本実施形態においては、入力軸Iが本発明における「入力部材」に相当し、中間軸Mが本発明における「中間部材」に相当する。また、出力軸Oが本発明における「出力部材」に相当する。これらの入力軸I、中間軸M、及び出力軸Oは、同軸上に配置されている。
次に、本実施形態に係る駆動装置1を制御するための制御装置3の構成について説明する。図1に示すように、制御装置3は、主に内燃機関11を制御するための内燃機関制御ユニット30と、主に回転電機12、入力クラッチCT、及び変速機構13を制御するための駆動装置制御ユニット40と、を備えている。内燃機関制御ユニット30及び駆動装置制御ユニット40は、駆動装置1の各部の動作制御を行う中核部材としての機能を果たしている。
内燃機関制御部31は、内燃機関11の動作制御を行う機能部であり、内燃機関制御手段として機能する。内燃機関制御部31は、内燃機関11の出力トルク(内燃機関トルクTe)及び回転速度の制御目標を決定し、この制御目標に応じて内燃機関11を動作させることにより、内燃機関11の動作制御を行う。本実施形態では、後述する要求トルク決定部42が、車両要求トルクTdを決定すると共にそのうちの内燃機関11による負担分である内燃機関要求トルクを決定する。内燃機関制御部31は、その内燃機関要求トルクに基づいて内燃機関トルクTeを制御する。内燃機関制御部31は、更に、後述する特定発進制御部47からの指令に従い、特定発進制御の一端を担う。
次に、駆動装置制御ユニット40の特定発進制御部47を中核として、内燃機関制御部31、回転電機制御部43、入力クラッチ動作制御部44、及び変速機構動作制御部45等が協働することにより実行される、特定発進制御の詳細について図面を参照して説明する。なお、以下の説明では、特定発進制御部47を中核とするこれらの各機能部を総称して「特定発進制御部47等」と称する場合がある。なお、本実施形態における特定発進制御は、上記特定発進モードによる車両6の発進動作である「特定発進動作」を対象としており、非特定発進動作とも言える入力クラッチCTのスリップ係合状態又は解放状態からの車両6の発進動作を対象としていない。同様に、非特定発進動作の一種である、回転電機12が発電を行っていない状態からの車両6の発進動作も対象としていない。
状態とし、特定発進制御を終了する。なお、特定発進制御の終了後は通常走行制御が開始される。図2のタイムチャートにおいては、この通常走行制御の領域を通常制御領域DNとして表示している。通常制御領域DNでは例えばパラレルモードが選択され、入力クラッチCTの完全係合状態で、車両6の走行状態に応じて内燃機関制御部31及び回転電機制御部43が内燃機関11及び回転電機12をそれぞれ適切に動作制御して車両6を走行させる。
次に、本実施形態に係る制御装置3による特定発進制御の処理手順について説明する。本例では、車両6の停車中に発電モードが実現されている状態から特定発進モードで車両6を発進させる場合(特定発進動作を行う場合)を想定して説明する。図3は、本実施形態に係る特定発進制御の処理手順を示すフローチャートである。以下に説明する特定発進制御の手順は、内燃機関制御ユニット30及び駆動装置制御ユニット40の各機能部により実行される。これらの各機能部がプログラムにより構成される場合には、内燃機関制御ユニット30及び駆動装置制御ユニット40が備える演算処理装置は、各機能部を構成するプログラムを実行するコンピュータとして動作する。
本発明に係る制御装置の第二の実施形態について、図面を参照して説明する。本実施形態に係る駆動装置1の駆動伝達系の構成及び制御装置3の構成は、基本的には上記第一の実施形態と同様である。但し、特定発進制御部47等により実行される特定発進制御の具体的内容が、上記第一の実施形態とは一部相違している。以下では、本実施形態に係る制御装置3について、上記第一の実施形態との相違点を中心に説明する。なお、特に明記しない点については、上記第一の実施形態と同様とする。
