Description

车轮转速测量组件和轮毂驱动系统 技术领域
本发明涉及轮毂驱动系统,还涉及轮毂驱动系统中用于测量车轮转速的车轮转速测量组件。
背景技术
轮毂驱动是电驱动车辆的一种方式。通常,轮毂驱动系统将驱动组件和制动组件都集成在轮辋的内侧,其中,驱动组件包括驱动电机、齿轮减速器和轮毂轴承。
图1是一种可能的轮毂驱动系统的示意图,其包括驱动电机W1、减速器W2、轮毂轴承W3和制动器W4。来自驱动电机W1的扭矩通过减速器W2传递给轮毂轴承W3,螺栓W5将轮毂轴承W3的外圈的法兰部与轮毂相连,从而进一步将扭矩传递给车轮。其中,轮辋的转速与车轮的转速相同。
由于轮毂驱动系统和轮辋之间的空间有限,很难设置传感器直接测量车轮的转速。因此通常只能间接测量车轮转速,例如通过角度传感器测量驱动电机W1的转速来计算车轮的转速。
间接的测量方式由于存在例如信号精度不高、信号传输存在延时等问题,所获得的车轮转速与实际转速之间可能存在较大的误差,这对轮毂驱动系统的安全性构成了威胁。

具体实施方式
下面参照附图描述本发明的示例性实施方式。应当理解,这些具体的说明仅用于示教本领域技术人员如何实施本发明,而不用于穷举本发明的所有可行的方式,也不用于限制本发明的范围。
除非特别说明,参照图2,A表示车轮转速测量组件的轴向,该轴向A与车轮转速测量组件中的轮毂轴承B的轴向一致;R表示车轮转速测量组件的径向,该径向R与车轮转速测量组件中的轮毂轴承B的径向一致。
参照图2至图6介绍根据本发明的车轮转速测量组件。该车轮转速测量组件属于轮毂驱动系统的一部分,其用于测量受轮毂驱动系统驱动的车轮的转速。
在本实施方式中,车轮转速测量组件包括轮毂轴承B、同步轴10、同步盖20、编译器30、支架40、尾盖50和轴承60。
轮毂轴承B包括中轴B1、外圈B2和设置于中轴B1与外圈B2之间的滚动体。
中轴B1为在轴向A上贯通的空心轴。中轴B1固定于轮毂驱动系统的壳体,壳体固定于车辆的悬架,或者说中轴B1与车辆的悬架抗扭地(不能相对 转动地)连接。
外圈B2套设在中轴B1的一个端部并能相对于中轴B1转动,外圈B2用于连接轮毂和减速器(图未示)的输出端,从而使来自轮毂驱动系统的驱动电机(图未示)的扭矩能依次通过减速器和外圈B2而传递给轮毂。在轴向A上,外圈B2的长度小于中轴B1的长度。为下文表述方便,将外圈B2所在的中轴B1的端部称为中轴B1的第一端。
在本实施方式中,外圈B2在轴向A上靠近第一端的外周具有向径向R的外侧凸出的法兰部,轮毂(图未示)可以通过螺栓W5而与法兰部连接。
优选地,为方便滚动体和外圈B2的在中轴B1上的轴向定位,中轴B1在轴向A上的靠近第一端的区段的外径小于远离第一端的区段的外径。
同步盖20安装于外圈B2的靠近中轴B1的第一端的端部,并且同步盖20与外圈B2抗扭地连接(例如通过螺纹连接或过盈配合地连接)。
同步盖20的朝向中轴B1的内腔B1a的侧壁设有向内腔B1a凸出的连接台21,连接台21的中部凹进而形成连接槽211,连接槽211用于连接下文将进一步介绍的同步轴10。
同步盖20既起到了连接同步轴10和外圈B2的作用,还起到了在端部密封轮毂轴承B的作用、以防止例如飞溅的污水等污染物进入轮毂轴承B的内部。
同步轴10设置于中轴B1的内腔B1a中。同步轴10的一端与同步盖20抗扭地连接于连接槽211。具体地,同步轴10的这个端部形成具有特殊截面形状的连接部11,连接部11的截面形状与连接槽211的截面形状相同。
在本实施方式中,连接部11的垂直于轴向A的截面呈腰形,其例如通过沿轴向切割同步轴10的端部而形成。腰形的两个平面部之间的距离大致等于连接槽211的宽度,从而连接部11能伸入连接槽211中并与连接槽211的侧壁紧密配合。应当理解,连接部11和连接槽211的截面还可以是其它形状,本发明对此不作限制。
通过这种方式,同步盖20能带动同步轴10同步地转动,又由于同步盖20与外圈B2同步转动、车轮与外圈B2同步转动,因此,同步轴10的转动是同步于车轮的。
同步轴10的远离连接部11的端部设有编译器30,编译器30与同步轴10抗扭地连接。由于上述端部远离外圈B2和轮辋,因此有足够的空间可以设置编译器30,并且用于探测编译器30的转动信号的传感器可以方便地设置在附近的车辆悬架上。传感器所测量的编译器30的转速即为车轮的转速。
在本实施方式中,编译器30呈环形,同步轴10的远离连接部11的端部被设置成具有较大外径的编译器安装部13,环形的编译器30套设于编译器安装部13,编译器30与编译器安装部13例如通过过盈配合的方式压装、或者通过螺纹连接的方式安装。
为稳定地支承同步轴10,内腔B1a内设有支架40,支架40与中轴B1抗扭地连接。
支架40呈环形,支架40的外周壁与同步轴10的限定内腔B1a的内周壁形成过盈配合。
同步轴10穿过支架40的中孔41,支架40的内周壁和同步轴10之间设有轴承60。优选地,轴承60为滑动轴承。
在本实施方式中,轴承60有两个,它们分别设置在支架40的两个轴向端部。同步轴10的安装轴承60的轴向区域形成轴肩12,支架40的内周壁在两个轴向端部处向径向外侧凹进地形成两个环形的定位部42。轴承60的内圈安装于轴肩12处、轴承60的外圈安装于定位部42。
优选地,为了方便支架40的安装,中轴B1的远离第一端的部分具有更大的内径,即,内腔B1a在安装支架40的部分具有更大的内径、使得内腔B1a形成一端大一端小的形状。
中轴B1的远离第一端的端部设有尾盖50,尾盖50用于在该端部将内腔 B1a封闭,从而能阻止例如飞溅的污水等污染物进入内腔B1a、甚至进一步通过内腔B1a流至中轴B1的第一端而进入轮毂轴承B的内部。在本实施方式中,尾盖50嵌设于中轴B1的内周壁。
由于内腔B1a被两个盖封闭住而不方便给轴承60补充润滑剂,因此轴承60优选使用润滑脂润滑,或者轴承60优选是具有自润滑功能的轴承。
应当理解,用于感测编译器30的信号的传感器可以设置于该中轴B1的外部,例如安装在车辆悬架上。该传感器可以作为或不作为本申请的车轮转速测量组件的一部分。
本发明至少具有以下优点中的一个优点:
(i)根据本发明的车轮转速测量组件能直接测量车轮的转速,所获取的转速信号直接而可靠。
(ii)编译器30被收容在封闭的内腔B1a内,不容易受到污损。
(iii)编译器30可以是常规的测量转速用的传感器的编译器。
(iv)根据本发明的车轮转速测量组件有效利用了轮毂驱动系统的内部空间,可以不需要占用原轮毂驱动系统的额外的空间。
当然,本发明不限于上述实施方式,本领域技术人员在本发明的教导下可以对本发明的上述实施方式做出各种变型,而不脱离本发明的范围。
