Description

차량의 제동 제어 장치 및 그 제어 방법Vehicle brake control apparatus and method for controlling the same
본 발명은 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달 답력을 판단하는 차량의 제동 제어 장치 및 그 제어 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a vehicle braking control apparatus for determining a brake pedal pressure by a driver and a control method thereof.
일반적으로, 차륜의 잠김에 의한 슬립을 방지하기 위한 ABS(Anti-lock Brake System)제어 시, 최적의 ABS 제동 사이클을 생성하기 위해서는 ABS의 인렛 밸브(inlet valve)의 개도량을 선정하는 것이 중요하다.In general, when controlling an anti-lock brake system (ABS) to prevent slippage due to wheel locking, it is important to select an opening degree of an inlet valve of the ABS in order to generate an optimal ABS braking cycle. .
인렛 밸브의 개도량은 인렛 밸브의 PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) 듀티(duty)에 의해 결정된다.The opening amount of the inlet valve is determined by the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) duty of the inlet valve.
ABS 최적 제어를 위해 적절한 압력 상승량을 만들 수 있도록 PWM 듀티의 선정이 중요하다. PWM 듀티가 일정하더라도 운전자가 브레이크 페달에 가하는 제동 답력에 따라 압력 상승량이 달라지기 때문에 PWM 듀티를 결정할 때 운전자에 의한 제동 답력을 고려해야 한다.It is important to select the PWM duty to create an appropriate amount of pressure rise for optimal ABS control. Even if the PWM duty is constant, the amount of pressure increase varies according to the braking force applied to the brake pedal by the driver, so when determining the PWM duty, the braking force by the driver must be considered.
그런데 최근에는 저비용화의 관점에서 마스터 실린더 내의 압력을 검출하기 위한 압력 센서를 생략한 저가형의 차량 제동 제어 장치의 개발이 진행되고 있다.However, recently, from the viewpoint of reducing the cost, development of a low-cost vehicle brake control device in which a pressure sensor for detecting the pressure in the master cylinder is omitted is in progress.
이러한 저가형의 차량 제동 제어 장치에서는 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달의 답력 수준을 알 수 없기 때문에 최적의 압력 상승량을 선정하는 데 어려움이 있다.In such a low-cost vehicle brake control device, it is difficult to select an optimal pressure increase amount because the level of the brake pedal pressure by the driver cannot be known.
일 측면은 마스터 실린더 내의 압력을 검출하기 위한 압력 센서를 이용하지 않고 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달의 답력을 추정할 수 있는 차량의 제동 제어 장치 및 그 제어 방법을 제공한다.One aspect provides a braking control apparatus for a vehicle capable of estimating a braking force of a brake pedal by a driver without using a pressure sensor for detecting a pressure in a master cylinder, and a method for controlling the same.

제어부(34)는 출력 측에는 인렛밸브(IN1-IN4), 아웃렛밸브(OUT1-OUT4) 및 모터(M)가 전기적으로 접속되어 있다.The control unit 34 is electrically connected to the inlet valves IN1-IN4, the outlet valves OUT1-OUT4 and the motor M on the output side.
제어부(34)는 휠 속도센서(36)에 의해 검출된 정보들을 근거로 ABS 제어시 인렛밸브(IN1-IN4), 아웃렛밸브(OUT1-OUT4) 및 모터(M)의 구동을 제어할 수 있다.The controller 34 may control the driving of the inlet valves IN1-IN4, the outlet valves OUT1-OUT4, and the motor M during ABS control based on the information detected by the wheel speed sensor 36 .
제동 제어시(ABS 제어시) 각 차륜에 대해서 제동 토크를 단순히 증가 또는 감소만 하도록 제어를 하면, 제동 토크의 변화가 심하여 ABS 성능 자체뿐만 아니라 소음과 진동이 심해질 수 있다. 따라서, 제동 토크를 부드럽게 증가 또는 감소시키거나 경우에 따라서는 일정하게 유지시키는 통상 리니어 플로우 제어(Linear Flow Control ; 이하 LFC)라 일컫는 LFC 제어를 적용하고 있다. 이 LFC 제어는 각 차륜의 휠 실린더에 공급되는 브레이크액을 조절하여 차륜의 제동 토크를 조절하는 솔레노이드 밸브를 스위칭 방식으로 단순히 완전개방 또는 완전폐쇄시키는 대신에, 솔레노이드 밸브에 공급되는 전류의 듀티비를 소정 사이클별로 조절하는 펄스폭 변조(Pulse Width Modulation ; PWM)방식으로 밸브의 개도를 조절하여 차륜의 제동 토크를 부드럽게 증가 또는 감소시킨다.During braking control (ABS control), if the braking torque is simply increased or decreased for each wheel, the braking torque is greatly changed, and noise and vibration as well as ABS performance itself may become severe. Accordingly, LFC control, commonly referred to as linear flow control (hereinafter referred to as LFC), which smoothly increases or decreases the braking torque or maintains it constant in some cases is applied. This LFC control controls the duty ratio of the current supplied to the solenoid valves instead of simply completely opening or completely closing the solenoid valves that control the braking torque of the wheels by regulating the brake fluid supplied to the wheel cylinders of each wheel by a switching method. It smoothly increases or decreases the braking torque of the wheel by controlling the opening degree of the valve by using the pulse width modulation (PWM) method, which is adjusted for each predetermined cycle.
상술한 바와 같이, ABS 제어시 최적의 ABS 제동 사이클을 생성하기 위해서는 인렛밸브(IN1-IN4)의 개도량을 선정하는 것이 중요하다. 해당 인렛밸브의 개도량은 인렛밸브의 PWM 듀티에 의해 결정된다. PWM 듀티가 적으면 밸브 개도량이 증가되어 압력 상승이 증가하고 딥 슬립(Deep slip)이 발생하고, 브레이크 페달(31)이 과다하게 진동하고, ABS 제동 사이클 수가 상대적으로 늘어나게 된다. 한편, PWM 듀티가 크면 밸브 개도량이 감소되어 압력 상승 지연이 발생하여 제동 손실이 발생하고 ABS 제동 사이클 수가 줄어든다. 이와 같이, ABS 최적 제어를 위해 적절한 압력 상승량을 만들 수 있도록 PWM 듀티를 선정하는 것이 중요하다. 이때 PWM 듀티가 일정하더라도 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달 답력에 따라 압력 상승량이 달라지기 때문에 PWM 듀티를 결정할 때 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달 답력을 고려해야 한다. 하지만, 저가형 제동 장치의 경우 운전자 답력 수준을 알 수가 없기 때문에, 최적의 압력 상승량 선정에 어려움이 있다.As described above, it is important to select the opening amount of the inlet valves IN1-IN4 in order to generate an optimal ABS braking cycle during ABS control. The opening degree of the corresponding inlet valve is determined by the PWM duty of the inlet valve. When the PWM duty is small, the valve opening amount is increased to increase the pressure rise, deep slip occurs, the brake pedal 31 vibrates excessively, and the number of ABS braking cycles is relatively increased. On the other hand, if the PWM duty is large, the valve opening amount is reduced, resulting in a delay in pressure rise, resulting in braking loss and reducing the number of ABS braking cycles. As such, it is important to select the PWM duty to create an appropriate amount of pressure rise for optimal ABS control. At this time, even if the PWM duty is constant, the amount of pressure increase varies depending on the brake pedal pressure by the driver, so when determining the PWM duty, the driver's brake pedal pressure must be considered. However, in the case of a low-cost braking system, since the level of the driver's pedal effort cannot be known, it is difficult to select an optimal pressure increase amount.
다시 도 3을 참조하면, 제어부(34)는 제동 제어시(ABS 제어시) 역기전력 검출부(37)를 통해 검출된 모터(M)의 역기전력을 근거로 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달(31)의 답력을 추정할 수 있다. 제어부(34)는 ABS 제어시 모터(M)가 오프되는 구간에서 모터(M)의 역기전력을 검출하고, 검출된 모터(M)의 역기전력에 따라 역기전력의 감소율을 산출하고, 산출된 역기전력의 감소율에 기초하여 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달의 답력을 추정할 수 있다.Referring back to FIG. 3 , the controller 34 estimates the pedal effort of the brake pedal 31 by the driver based on the back electromotive force of the motor M detected through the back electromotive force detector 37 during braking control (ABS control). can do. The control unit 34 detects the back electromotive force of the motor M in the section in which the motor M is turned off during ABS control, calculates a reduction rate of the back electromotive force according to the detected back electromotive force of the motor M, and calculates the reduction rate of the calculated back electromotive force. Based on this, it is possible to estimate the braking force of the brake pedal by the driver.
역기전력 검출부(37)는 모터(M)에서 발생하는 역기전력을 검출할 수 있다.The back electromotive force detection unit 37 may detect a back electromotive force generated in the motor M.
예를 들어, 모터(M)가 회전할 경우, 회전자에 구비된 코일 중에서 상 전압이 인가되지 않은 코일에, 유도 기전력에 의한 역기전력이 발생한다. 따라서, 역기전력 검출부(37)는 이와 같이 모터(M)의 각 코일에서 발생하는 역기전력을 검출할 수 있다.For example, when the motor M rotates, a counter electromotive force due to an induced electromotive force is generated in a coil to which a phase voltage is not applied among coils provided in the rotor. Accordingly, the counter electromotive force detection unit 37 may detect the counter electromotive force generated in each coil of the motor M as described above.
제어부(34)는 ABS 제어시 모터(M)의 속도를 제어하기 위해 모터(M)를 미리 설정된 온/오프 패턴에 따라 온 또는 오프시킬 수 있다(도 4 참조).The controller 34 may turn on or off the motor M according to a preset on/off pattern to control the speed of the motor M during ABS control (see FIG. 4 ).
ABS 제어시 모터(M)의 온과 오프는 모터(M)의 목표 전압(Target voltage)과 모터 역기전력(Motor Back-emf)에 의해 결정될 수 있다. 모터(M)를 미리 설정된 시간 동안 온 시키고, 모터 오프 후 목표 전압과 역기전력이 만나면 다시 모터(M)를 온 시킬 수 있다. 이때, 모터 온 시간은 모터 오프 시간에 따라 결정될 수 있다. 모터 오프 시간이 길면 모터 온 시간을 짧게 설정하고, 모터 오프 시간이 짧으면 모터 온 시간을 길게 설정할 수 있다.During ABS control, on and off of the motor M may be determined by a target voltage of the motor M and a motor back-emf. The motor M is turned on for a preset time, and after the motor is turned off, when the target voltage and the counter electromotive force meet, the motor M can be turned on again. In this case, the motor on time may be determined according to the motor off time. If the motor off time is long, the motor on time can be set short, and when the motor off time is short, the motor on time can be set long.
제어부(34)는 모터(M)의 오프 구간에서 브레이크 페달(31)의 답력을 추정하기 위하여 모터(M)의 역기전력을 검출할 수 있다(도 4 참조).The controller 34 may detect the counter electromotive force of the motor M in order to estimate the pedal force of the brake pedal 31 in the off section of the motor M (refer to FIG. 4 ).
제어부(34)는 ABS 제어시 모터(M)를 제어할 때 모터(M)의 역기전력을 이용하여 모터 속도를 제어한다. 모터(M)를 오프시킨 상태에서 발생되는 모터(M)의 역기전력은 모터 속도에 비례하므로 운전자가 브레이크 페달(31)을 강하게 밟을 경우 마스터 실린더(MC)의 압력도 그만큼 높아 모터 속도가 급격히 줄어든다. 이와 같이, 역기전력 감소율과 마스터 실린더 압력 간에는 상관관계를 가진다.The controller 34 controls the motor speed by using the counter electromotive force of the motor M when controlling the motor M during ABS control. Since the back electromotive force of the motor M generated when the motor M is turned off is proportional to the motor speed, when the driver presses the brake pedal 31 strongly, the pressure of the master cylinder MC is also high, and the motor speed is rapidly reduced. As such, there is a correlation between the back electromotive force reduction rate and the master cylinder pressure.
도 5는 실시예에 따른 차량의 제동 제어 장치에서 모터 역기전력 감소율과 마스터 실린더 압력 간의 상관관계를 나타낸 그래프를 도시한다.5 is a graph illustrating a correlation between a motor counter electromotive force reduction rate and a master cylinder pressure in the brake control apparatus for a vehicle according to the embodiment.
도 5를 참조하면, 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달 답력에 따른 마스터 실린더 압력에 따라 모터 오프시의 역기전력 감소율이 변경됨을 알 수 있다.Referring to FIG. 5 , it can be seen that the reduction rate of the counter electromotive force when the motor is turned off is changed according to the master cylinder pressure according to the brake pedal effort by the driver.
브레이크 페달 답력이 높아 마스터 실린더 압력이 높을수록 역기전력 감소율이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있다.It can be seen that the back electromotive force reduction rate increases as the master cylinder pressure increases due to the high brake pedal effort.
모터 오프시 인렛밸브(IN1-IN4)와 아웃렛밸브(OUT1-OUT4)를 고려하여 역기전력 감소율 구간을 선정할 수 있다.When the motor is turned off, the counter electromotive force reduction rate section can be selected in consideration of the inlet valves IN1-IN4 and the outlet valves OUT1-OUT4.
이와 같이, 마스터 실린더 압력과 모터 역기전력 감소율의 경향성을 확인할 수 있기 때문에 모터 역기전력 감소율에 따라 브레이크 페달 답력을 신뢰성 있게 추정할 수 있다. 제어부(34)의 메모리(34b)에는 모터 역기전력 감소율에 대응하는 브레이크 페달 답력(혹은 마스터 실린더 압력)이 맵 형태로 미리 저장되어 있을 수 있다. 제어부(34)는 이 맵을 이용하여 브레이크 페달 답력을 판단할 수 있다.As described above, since the tendency of the master cylinder pressure and the motor back EMF reduction rate can be confirmed, the brake pedal effort can be reliably estimated according to the motor back EMF reduction rate. In the memory 34b of the controller 34 , a brake pedal effort (or master cylinder pressure) corresponding to a reduction rate of the motor counter electromotive force may be previously stored in the form of a map. The controller 34 may determine the brake pedal effort by using this map.
이와 같이, ABS 제동 중 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달 답력 수준을 구분할 수 있기 때문에 모터 오프시 모터 역기전력에 따라 브레이크 페달 답력을 추정한 후 이 브레이크 페달 답력에 따라 인렛밸브(IN1-IN4)의 PWM 듀티를 변경할 수 있어 최적의 ABS 제어를 수행할 수 있다(도 6 참조).In this way, since the brake pedal effort level by the driver during ABS braking can be distinguished, the brake pedal effort force is estimated according to the motor counter electromotive force when the motor is off, and then the PWM duty of the inlet valves (IN1-IN4) is changed according to the brake pedal effort force. Therefore, it is possible to perform optimal ABS control (see FIG. 6 ).
한편, 마스터 실린더 내의 압력을 검출하기 위한 압력 센서가 있는 제동 제어 장치(예를 들면, 차량 자세제어장치)의 경우 운전자에 의한 브레이크 페달 답력에 따라 인렛밸브의 PWM 듀티를 보상할 수 있다. 하지만, 이 압력 센서가 없는 저가형 제동 제어 장치(예를 들면, ABS 장치)는 브레이크 페달 답력에 대한 보상 개념이 없다.Meanwhile, in the case of a braking control device (eg, a vehicle attitude control device) having a pressure sensor for detecting the pressure in the master cylinder, the PWM duty of the inlet valve may be compensated according to a brake pedal pressure by the driver. However, this low-cost brake control device without a pressure sensor (for example, an ABS device) has no concept of compensating for the brake pedal effort.
도 7은 실시예에 따른 차량의 제동 제어 장치에서 브레이크 페달 답력에 따라 인렛밸브의 PWM 듀티를 보상하는 것을 도시한다.7 is a diagram illustrating compensating for PWM duty of an inlet valve according to a brake pedal effort in the brake control apparatus for a vehicle according to the embodiment.
도 7을 참조하면, ABS 사양에서 모터 역기전력을 이용하여 브레이크 페달 답력을 추정하는 것을 이용하여 브레이크 페달 답력 수준을 미리 설정된 답력 범위를 기준으로 저답력, 중답력 혹은 고답력으로 구분하고, 각 답력 상황에 맞게 인렛밸브의 PWM 듀티를 보상할 수 있다.Referring to FIG. 7 , the brake pedal effort level is divided into low pedal effort, medium pedal effort, or high pedal effort based on a preset pedal effort range by estimating the brake pedal effort force using the motor back electromotive force in the ABS specification, and each pedal effort situation The PWM duty of the inlet valve can be compensated according to
예를 들면, 브레이크 페달 답력이 저답력일 경우, 인렛밸브의 초기 PWM 듀티(Initial Duty)에서 미리 설정된 PWM 듀티(보상 듀티)를 빼서 인렛밸브에 출력되는 PWM 듀티를 감소시킬 수 있다. 또한, 브레이크 페달 답력이 중답력일 경우, 인렛밸브에 출력되는 PWM 듀티를 그대로 유지할 수 있다. 또한, 브레이크 페달 답력이 고답력일 경우, 인렛밸브의 초기 PWM 듀티(Initial Duty)에 미리 설정된 PWM 듀티(보상 듀티)를 더해서 인렛밸브에 출력되는 PWM 듀티를 증가시킬 수 있다.For example, when the brake pedal effort is low, the PWM duty output to the inlet valve may be reduced by subtracting a preset PWM duty (compensation duty) from the initial PWM duty of the inlet valve. In addition, when the brake pedal effort is a medium pedal effort, the PWM duty output to the inlet valve may be maintained as it is. Also, when the brake pedal effort is high, the PWM duty output to the inlet valve may be increased by adding a preset PWM duty (compensation duty) to the initial PWM duty of the inlet valve.
한편, 제어부(34)는 제동 제어 중 모터(M)의 역기전력에 근거하여 인렛밸브(IN)의 PWM 듀티를 보상할 수 있다. 제어부(34)는 제동 제어 중 모터(M)의 역기전력 감소율을 근거로 인렛밸브(IN)의 PWM 듀티를 보상할 수 있다.Meanwhile, the controller 34 may compensate the PWM duty of the inlet valve IN based on the back electromotive force of the motor M during braking control. The controller 34 may compensate for the PWM duty of the inlet valve IN based on a reduction rate of the back electromotive force of the motor M during braking control.
제어부(34)는 모터(M)의 역기전력 감소율이 미리 설정된 제1 감소율 범위이면, 인렛밸브의 초기 PWM 듀티를 감소시켜 PWM 듀티를 보상할 수 있다.The controller 34 may compensate for the PWM duty by reducing the initial PWM duty of the inlet valve when the counter electromotive force reduction rate of the motor M is within a preset first reduction rate range.
제어부(34)는 모터(M)의 역기전력 감소율이 미리 설정된 제1 감소율 범위보다 높은 미리 설정된 제2 감소율 범위이면, 인렛밸브의 PWM 듀티를 초기 PWM 듀티 그대로 유지할 수 있다.The controller 34 may maintain the PWM duty of the inlet valve as the initial PWM duty when the counter electromotive force reduction rate of the motor M is in a preset second reduction ratio range higher than the preset first reduction ratio range.
제어부(34)는 모터(M)의 역기전력 감소율이 미리 설정된 제2 감소율 범위보다 높은 미리 설정된 제3 감소율 범위이면, 인렛밸브의 PWM 듀티를 초기 PWM 듀티보다 높은 PWM 듀티로 보상할 수 있다.The controller 34 may compensate the PWM duty of the inlet valve with a PWM duty higher than the initial PWM duty when the counter electromotive force reduction rate of the motor M is in a preset third reduction ratio range higher than the preset second reduction ratio range.

In this case, the controller 34 may drive the motor M according to a preset on/off pattern during ABS control ( 100 ). That is, the motor M may be operated to repeat on/off with a predetermined cycle without continuously operating the motor M. FIG. The control unit 34 controls the motor M and controls each inlet valve IN and each outlet valve OUT to increase, decrease, and maintain the brake pressure of the brake caliper 41 to prevent wheel slippage. can do.
