Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to hydraulic pump control methods and systems. More specifically, this invention relates to such methods and systems for hydraulic hybrid vehicles, and to components and assemblies that may be used with such vehicles and elsewhere.
  • Hydraulic hybrid vehicles may include a vehicle prime mover such as an internal combustion engine, primary and secondary hydraulic pump motor units, at least one hydraulic energy storage device such as one or more high pressure hydraulic fluid accumulators, and isolation valves for opening and closing fluid communication between each of the pump motor units and the accumulator.
  • the secondary pump motor unit may be used in a pumping mode to capture energy under certain conditions such as braking the vehicle, and the captured energy may be stored in the hydraulic accumulator and used by the secondary hydraulic pump motor unit to propel the vehicle in a motoring mode.
  • the internal combustion engine and the hydraulic pump motor units may be connected to a planetary gear set, and the gear set splits power from the internal combustion engine to both power the hydraulic primary unit as well as rotate a drive shaft and propel the vehicle.
  • a hydraulic hybrid vehicle drive system of this general type is disclosed in the above referenced PCT patent application.
  • the secondary pump motor unit When the accumulator in this type of system has a useful amount of stored energy in the form of high pressure hydraulic fluid and the vehicle is to be started from a stopped condition, the secondary pump motor unit operates in the motoring mode and uses the high pressure hydraulic fluid to start and continue moving the vehicle.
  • the secondary unit In systems of this type, the secondary unit is typically connected to the drive shaft of the vehicle. Because the secondary unit is used to turn the drive shaft and propel the vehicle from a stopped condition, and because the vehicle can be fully loaded and can be in an uphill attitude in its stopped condition, a low gear ratio may be desirable between the secondary unit and the drive shaft to reduce the speed and increase the torque transmitted from the secondary unit to the drive shaft during start up and at relatively lower vehicle ground speeds.
  • hydraulic pump motor units have a maximum allowed rotational speed due to mechanical limits of components, a technical problem is to provide the desired low gear ratio between the secondary pump motor unit and the vehicle drive shaft while still allowing relatively high maximum ground speed for the vehicle. Further, when hydraulic power is limited or not being used, technical problems include power losses in the secondary unit and maintaining a target charge in the high pressure accumulator. Further, if hydraulic power is not being used, a technical problem is dissipation of energy from hydraulic fluid pressure created by the primary pump motor unit. Additional technical problems are to provide smooth operation during all operating modes, to provide maximum energy capture and storage and utilization, to provide minimum hydraulic fluid heat build-up, to reduce system noise levels particularly at relatively higher cruising mode vehicle ground speeds, and to reduce system complexity and cost. As used herein, the term cruising mode means generally sustained vehicle speeds in excess of about 25-50 miles per hour.
  • the present invention addresses the above and other technical problems in one embodiment by providing a pump control method and system that may oscillate the primary unit between a pumping mode and a motoring mode. Further, the present invention in another embodiment addresses these technical problems by changing the direction of rotation of the primary unit by changing the internal combustion engine speed while maintaining a substantially constant vehicle ground speed. Further, the present invention in another embodiment addresses these technical problems by providing a pump control method and system that may shift between enabled and disabled or shut off of the secondary unit under certain conditions. Further, the present invention in another embodiment addresses these technical problems by providing a pump control system and method that may selectively shift between a low gear range or a high gear range between the secondary unit and the vehicle drive shaft under other conditions.

  • the proportional control valves 52 and 53 adjust the displacement of the units 42 and 43 during both pumping and motoring modes. For example, when movement of vehicle 10 is initially started from a stopped position, fluid is supplied from accumulator 46 to secondary unit 43 and displacement of unit 43 is gradually increased to accelerate vehicle 10. As speed of the vehicle 10 increases and displacement of unit 43 increases, fluid pressure from accumulator 46 decreases and less stored energy is available to unit 43 to continue to drive vehicle 10. As the speed of the vehicle further increases, more power is transmitted mechanically directly from the engine 13 to driveshaft 17 through the planetary gearset 71, while less power is transmitted by the hydraulic pump motor units. By reducing the hydraulic power transmitted at higher vehicle speeds, the overall transmission efficiency is increased.
  • the displacements of pump motors 42 and 43 are steplessly adjusted to achieve a desired output shaft speed for a given input prime mover input shaft speed.
  • the adjusting of displacement provides for an infinitely variable or stepless transmission ratio, which allows the prime mover 13 to be operated at its most efficient operating speed regardless of output shaft speed. Additionally, since there is no gear shifting, there is no interruption in power.
  • secondary unit 43 is operated in a pumping mode and displacement of unit 43 is increased to pump more fluid into accumulator 46 and cause further braking resistance to the drive wheels 15 until the desired slower speed or stopped condition for the vehicle 10 is achieved.
  • a clutch 101 in secondary drive shaft 45 as illustrated in Figure 1 may disable secondary unit 43 by providing secondary unit disengagement or shut off.

  • the clutch 101 is between the secondary pump motor unit 43 and ring gear 73 and between secondary pump motor unit 43 and drive shaft 17, and clutch 101 shifts secondary pump motor unit 43 between an engaged and a disengaged position or mode.
  • Clutch 101 is engaged during normal stop and go driving, to drivingly connect these components when hydraulic power is available and secondary pump motor unit 43 is being used to provide power to propel vehicle 10.
  • clutch 101 is disengaged to disconnect secondary unit 43 from ring gear 73 and from vehicle drive shaft 17. This prevents maximum rotational speed of secondary unit 43 from being a limiting factor that would limit the top cruising speed of vehicle 10.
  • this permits a relatively low gear ratio to be used in the gears 78 and 79, so that relatively higher torque can be provided by secondary unit 43 to vehicle drive shaft 17 particularly during startup and low speed hydraulic powered operation of vehicle 10. Still further, this eliminates efficiency losses in secondary unit 43 under this mode of operation resulting from churning hydraulic fluid or volumetric loss or other losses, and reduces noise levels from secondary unit 43.

  • Dog clutch center component 101a is carried on secondary shaft 45 and rotates with secondary shaft 45 under all conditions.
  • Dog clutch component 101a includes gear teeth on its right axial end face that selectively engage and disengage from axially facing gear teeth on the left axial end face of dog clutch component 101c carried by gear 78b. Dog clutch component 101a also includes gear teeth on its left axial end face that selectively engage and disengage from axially facing gear teeth on the right axial end face of dog clutch component 101b carried by gear 78a.

Also, more than two different gear ratios can be provided to provide additional operating modes. Also, dog clutch components such as 101a, 101b and 101c may be removed from shaft 45 and place on shaft 17 and used to selectively connect gears 79a and 79b to rotate with shaft 17 while gears 78a and 78b are always arranged to rotate with shaft 45.

In the embodiment illustrated in the drawings, and with particular reference to Figure 2, this is accomplished by setting and maintaining secondary isolation valve 55 in its closed position to close fluid pressure communication between high pressure hydraulic fluid accumulator 46 and secondary unit 43 and between primary unit 42 and secondary unit 43.
  • planetary gear set 71 Two operating principles of planetary gear set 71 are employed.
  • One operating principle is that the torque on all three elements of the planetary gear set 71 (that is, the elements consisting of sun gear 77, planet carrier 75 and ring gear 73) maintain a constant relationship under all operating conditions, so that defining the torque on any one such element defines the torque on all three elements.
  • the second operating principle is that defining the speed of any two of the three elements of the planetary gear set 71 defines the speed of the third element.
  • the planetary gear set 71 transmits vehicle driving torque during cruising mode from prime mover internal combustion engine 13 through shaft 62, through planet carrier 74 and ring gear 73, to vehicle drive shaft 17.
  • this torque In order to transmit this torque through planet carrier 74 and ring gear 73 (two of the three elements of planetary gear set 71 ), it is necessary to apply the same torque to sun gear 72 (the third element of planetary gear set 71 ). This is accomplished by electric controller 125 controlling or commanding primary pump motor unit 42 to apply or resist this torque. When primary unit 42 is applying this torque, it is necessary or desirable to rotate primary unit 42 and lubricate components of primary unit 42.
  • the present invention in one embodiment provides a pump control method 200 and system 100 that may oscillate the direction of rotation of the primary unit 42 and/or may oscillate the primary unit 42 between a pumping mode and a motoring mode.
  • the method 200 and system 100 is for use when hydraulic power is limited or not being used and transmission of most power to drive the vehicle is through the mechanical power path rather than through the hydraulic power path, such as under cruising mode of operation. Further, under these conditions the present invention may provide a method 200 and system 100 that may oscillate the direction of rotation of the primary unit 42 by changing the internal combustion engine 13 speed while maintaining a substantially constant vehicle 10 ground speed.
  • step 201 of the method 200 and system 100 the vehicle 10 accelerator pedal receives an input as pedal movement caused by the operator of the vehicle 10 to determine a driver torque demand.
  • controller 125 receives inputs including speed of prime mover 13, speed of vehicle 10, high pressure accumulator 16 conditions including pressure, accelerator position, and other inputs, and determines if prime mover 13 can provide the mechanical torque at the desired high pressure accumulator 46 charge and discharge speed. If no at step 202, then at step 203 controller 125 keeps secondary unit 43 hydraulically enabled by valve 55 and uses standard power split control for mechanical torque and hydraulic torque through planetary gear set 71. At step 203, hydraulic fluid flows directly between primary unit 42 and secondary unit 43 as in previous systems.
  • controller 125 determines if torque demand from the driver can be accomplished through mechanical torque only. If no at step 204, then the method 200 proceeds to described step 203 and keeps the secondary unit 203 enabled. If yes at step 204, then at step 205 controller 125 sets torque of prime mover 13 to required or demanded mechanical torque. Further, to transmit this torque through planetary gear set 71 and meet the above described planetary gear set principles, controller 125 sets primary unit 42 to balance engine torque through sun gear 72 of planetary gear set 71. At step 205, controller 125 also closes isolation valve 54 to close fluid communication between secondary unit 42 and high pressure hydraulic accumulator 46 and between secondary unit 42 and primary unit 43.
  • controller 125 disengages clutch 101 or clutch 101a, 101b, 101c.
  • Method 200 then at step 206 sets the speed of prime mover engine 13 to a charge speed to operate system 100 in a power additive mode as further described below and uses primary unit 42 to balance engine torque.
  • controller 125 at step 207 determines if the pressure in accumulator 46 has reached an upper high pressure target pressure level.
  • controller 125 changes the speed of engine 13 and sets the engine speed to a discharge speed lower than charge speed to operate system 100 in a power recirculation mode as further described below and continues to use primary unit 42 to balance engine torque to allow engine speed to ramp down.
  • controller 125 determines if accumulator 46 has reached a lower pressure target. If no at step 209, then step 208 is repeated until step 209 reaches yes and method 200 proceeds back to step 206 to increase engine speed and repeat power additive mode.
  • primary unit 42 discharges accumulator 46.
  • the torque by primary unit 42 is set by the displacement angle of the swash plate 42a of primary unit 42 and is indicated as torque value +, which remains substantially constant as the method 200 and system 100 operates in the power additive mode and power recirculation mode.
  • Rotational direction of primary unit 42 can change as method 200 and system 100 oscillates between power additive mode and power recirculation mode, based upon the above mentioned operating principles of planetary gear set 71.
  • Vehicle ground speed and speed of ring gear 73 is substantially constant during the described oscillation, and these substantially constant speeds are maintained as engine speed (and its associated planet carrier speed) is increased or decreased and as accompanying primary unit 42 speed (and its associated sun gear speed) moves from positive to negative.
  • Figure 6a further illustrates with line 240 how engine speed (revolutions per minute) changes from power additive mode engine speed to power recirculation mode engine speed.
  • Figure 6b further illustrates with line 241 how high pressure accumulator 46 pressure (pounds per square inch) changes from power additive mode to power recirculation mode as Figure 6a engine speed changes.
  • the horizontal time axes on Figures 6a and 6b are identical, so that Figures 6a and 6b together illustrate the relationship between engine speed and accumulator pressure for assumed exemplary conditions.
  • accumulator 46 pressure builds to the upper target (2800 psi, for example) during above described step 206 until the upper target is reached at step 207.
  • accumulator 46 pressure decreases to the lower target (2600 psi, for example) during above described step 208 until the lower target is reached at step 209. If engine 13 were operated at the midpoint (1700 rpm, for example) between power additive engine speed and power recirculation engine speed, primary unit 42 speed would be substantially zero, but this condition is avoided to continue to rotate and continue to lubricate primary unit 42.
  • the time period for the power additive mode and for the power recirculation mode are dependent upon the time it takes to move between the higher and the lower target pressures for the accumulator 46, and the time period is dependent upon the size and pressure of the accumulator 46 and system operating conditions.
  • the time period for a complete power additive mode and power recirculation mode cycle or oscillation may preferably be in the range of about 5 seconds to about 120 seconds.
  • the method 200 and system 100 have about two cycles during each 50 second time period at a substantially constant vehicle ground speed of 68 miles per hour.
