All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
It should be noted that: like reference numbers and letters refer to like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
FIG. 1 is a schematic circuit diagram of an electric vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a vacuum pump control apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 3 is a flow chart of a vacuum pump control method in an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 1, fig. 2 and fig. 3, the present embodiment provides a vacuum pump control method, which is applied to a pure electric vehicle, where the electric vehicle includes a power system 2, a vacuum pump control device 1, a brake system 3, an information output device 5, a vacuum tank, and a vacuum pump 6 for controlling a vacuum degree in the vacuum tank, and under a normal operation condition of the vehicle, the vacuum pump control method includes:
step 1A: and judging whether the vacuum degree of the vacuum pump is not greater than the first preset pressure, if so, executing the step 1B, otherwise, continuing to execute the step 1A.
In step 1A, the vacuum degree of the vacuum pump 6 may be detected by the vacuum degree sensor 4. The first preset pressure may be set to 50kpa, or alternatively, depending on the actual situation.
Step 1B: and controlling the vacuum pump to start working.
In the embodiment, the vacuum pump 6 is started by the vacuum pump driving module 19 controlling the positive relay 7 to close.
Step 1C: and judging whether the vacuum degree of the vacuum tank is not less than a third preset pressure. If yes, executing the step 1D, otherwise, returning to execute the step 1B.
In this embodiment, the third preset pressure may be set to 72kpa, and the third preset pressure should be greater than the first preset pressure.
Step 1D: and controlling the vacuum pump to stop working.
In the present embodiment, the way of controlling the vacuum pump 6 to stop operating is to turn off the positive relay 7. Thereafter, 1A is continued to be executed, thereby looping.
The above steps are the start and stop control strategy of the vacuum pump 6 in the normal working mode, which is realized by the normal working module 13. In addition to the vacuum pump control method including the above steps in a normal operation condition of the vehicle, the vacuum pump control method applies a strategy in a high altitude operation mode in a high altitude operation condition of the vehicle, which includes:
step 2A: judging whether the vacuum degree is not greater than a first preset pressure, if so, executing the step 2B, otherwise, continuing to execute the step 2A;
and step 2B: and controlling the vacuum pump to start working.
The implementation methods of step 2A and step 2B are the same as those of step 1A and step 1B, and are not described herein again.
And step 2C: and judging whether the working time of the vacuum pump is not less than the fourth preset time and the vacuum degree is greater than the first preset pressure under the condition that the braking system does not brake, if so, executing the step 2D, and otherwise, continuing to execute the step 2B.
In this embodiment, whether the brake system 3 brakes is determined by detecting a brake pedal signal, and the continuous working time (if a brake pedal signal is detected during recording, timing is cleared, and timing is restarted when no brake pedal signal is detected) and the real-time vacuum degree of the vacuum pump 6 under the condition of no brake pedal signal determine whether the working time of the vacuum pump 6 is not less than a fourth preset time and the vacuum degree is greater than a first preset pressure. In the present embodiment, the fourth preset time may be set to 7 s.
Step 2D: and controlling the vacuum pump to stop working.
Step 2D is implemented in the same manner as step 1D. Then, 2A is executed continuously, thereby looping.
In the present embodiment, the steps of the high altitude mode of operation are implemented by the high altitude module 14.
Under the two modes (the normal working mode and the high-altitude working mode), the vacuum pump control method is carried out according to two different strategies so as to ensure that the equipment can run more stably and safely under different air pressure environments. In the two modes, the vacuum pump control method further comprises the step of simultaneously carrying out fault detection so as to detect whether faults exist in each step in the two modes in real time. The fault detection is realized by a fault monitoring module. If the fault is found, the strategy is executed according to the fault detection module 11. If not, the vacuum pump 6 is controlled to start and stop according to the strategy in the normal working mode or the high-altitude working mode.
Therefore, in order to detect a failure in real time, the vacuum pump control method further includes:
and step S11, judging whether the time for which the vacuum pump continuously works under the condition that the brake system does not brake is not less than a first preset time.
In this step, the time counting is cleared when the brake pedal signal is detected during the time recording, and the time counting is restarted when the brake pedal signal is not present. In the present embodiment, the first preset time may be set to 20 s. Step S11 may be implemented by the fault detection module 11.
And step S12, when the duration of the vacuum pump working continuously under the condition that the brake system is not braked is judged to be not less than the first preset time, judging whether the vacuum degree of the vacuum tank is not more than the first preset pressure or not.
When it is determined that the time during which the vacuum pump 6 continues to operate without braking the brake system 3 is less than the first preset time, the operation continues to step S11, and the operation time of the vacuum pump 6 is monitored.
And step S13, when the vacuum degree of the vacuum tank is judged not to be larger than the first preset pressure, controlling the vacuum pump to stop working.
The vacuum pump 6 is controlled to stop working by the fault detection module 11 sending an instruction to the vacuum pump driving module 19, and the vacuum pump driving module 19 controlling the positive relay 7 to be switched off so as to stop working of the vacuum pump 6.
In addition, when the vacuum degree of the vacuum tank is not greater than the first preset pressure, the fault detection module 11 may output a first fault signal to the fault storage module 15, the fault storage module 15 records the type of the fault according to the first fault signal, for example, the fault is recorded as a "large leakage fault", the fault display module 18 is notified to output a first notification signal, the information output device 5 is controlled to output prompt information, for example, a warning lamp is turned on (normally on), meanwhile, a text prompt "brake boosting fault" is given, and the buzzer alarms and sounds and stops after 3 periods. When it is determined that the vacuum degree of the vacuum tank is greater than the first preset pressure (e.g., 50kpa), step 2D of shifting to the high altitude operation mode starts to be performed downward. The information output device 5 may be a display screen, a speaker, a signal lamp, or the like.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the vacuum pump control method further includes:
and step S21, judging whether the number of times of vacuum pump circulation exceeds the preset number.
The vacuum pump 6 is cycled once, which is a process of turning on the vacuum pump 6 once and turning off once, and in this embodiment, the preset number of times may be 4 times. Step S21 is implemented by the fault detection module 11.
And step S22, when the number of times of the vacuum pump circulation is judged to exceed the preset number, controlling the vacuum pump to stop working.
The manner of controlling the vacuum pump 6 to stop operating is similar to that of step S13, and will not be described herein. In addition, when the number of times that the vacuum pump 6 circulates is judged to exceed the preset number of times, the fault detection module 11 may output a second fault signal to the fault storage module 15, the fault storage module 15 records the type of the fault according to the second fault signal, for example, records the type as a "small leakage fault", notifies the fault display module 18 to output a first notification signal, controls the information output device 5 to output a prompt message, for example, turn on a warning lamp (normally on), and simultaneously prompts the "brake boosting fault" in a text manner, and the buzzer alarms and sounds to stop after 3 cycles.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the vacuum pump control method further includes:
step S31, judging whether the output voltage value of the vacuum degree sensor exceeds the tolerance and the out-of-tolerance time exceeds a second preset time;
in this step, the output voltage value of the vacuum degree sensor 4 is out of tolerance, that is, the output voltage is smaller than a first preset voltage or larger than a second preset voltage, wherein the second preset voltage is larger than the first preset voltage. In this embodiment, the first preset voltage may be set to 0.4V, the second preset voltage may be set to 4.5V, and the second preset time may be set to 2 s. It can be understood that the specific preset time and the preset voltage can be adjusted according to actual conditions.
And step S32, when the output voltage value of the vacuum degree sensor is judged to be out of tolerance and the out-of-tolerance time exceeds a second preset time, controlling the vacuum pump to stop working.
In this step, the manner of controlling the vacuum pump 6 to stop operating is the same as that in step S13, and the details are not repeated here. In addition, when it is determined that the output voltage value of the vacuum sensor 4 is out of tolerance and the out-of-tolerance time exceeds the second preset time, the fault detection module 11 may output a third fault signal to the fault storage module 15, the fault storage module 15 records the type of the fault according to the third fault signal, for example, records the type as "vacuum sensor fault", notifies the fault display module 18 to output a first notification signal, controls the information output device 5 to output a notification message, for example, turn on a warning lamp (normally on), and simultaneously, gives a text prompt of "brake boosting fault", and the buzzer alarms that the sound is stopped after 3 cycles.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, after the step of controlling the vacuum pump 6 to stop operating, the method for controlling a vacuum pump of an electric vehicle further comprises:
in step S41, it is determined whether the positive relay is off.
This step can be achieved by detecting whether the voltage across the positive relay 7 is still at a high level, and if it is still at a high level, it is not turned off.
And step S42, when the positive relay is not disconnected, the negative relay is controlled to be disconnected.
The operation of controlling the negative relay 8 to be turned off is performed by the vacuum pump driving module 19. In addition, when it is determined that the positive relay 7 is not turned off, the fault detection module 11 may output a fourth fault signal to the fault storage module 15, and the fault storage module 15 records the type of the fault according to the fourth fault signal, for example, as "positive relay fault", and notifies the fault display module 18 to output the first notification signal, so as to control the information output device 5 to output the notification information, for example, to turn on a warning lamp (normally on), and at the same time, to prompt "brake boosting fault" by text, and the buzzer alarms and sounds and stops after 3 cycles. According to the control method, when the positive relay 7 is adhered and cannot be disconnected, the negative relay 8 is disconnected, so that the vacuum pump 6 stops working, and the damage caused by long-time working is avoided.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, after the step of controlling the vacuum pump to stop operating, the method for controlling a vacuum pump of an electric vehicle further includes:
and step S51, judging whether the vacuum degree of the vacuum tank is smaller than the second preset pressure and the duration time is not smaller than the third preset time.
This step is performed by the fault detection module 11, in this embodiment, the second preset pressure may be set to 35kpa, and the third preset time may be set to 5s, and it should be understood that the second preset pressure and the third preset time may be adjusted according to actual conditions.
And step S52, when the vacuum degree of the vacuum tank is judged to be smaller than the second preset pressure and the duration time is not smaller than the third preset time, controlling the vehicle speed not to exceed the first preset speed.
Controlling the vehicle speed to not exceed the first preset speed may be accomplished by controlling the power system 2 via the speed limit processing module 17. In addition, when it is determined that the vacuum degree of the vacuum tank is smaller than the second preset pressure and the duration time is not smaller than the third preset time, the fault detection module 11 may output a fifth fault signal to the fault storage module 15, the fault storage module 15 records the type of the fault according to the fifth fault signal, for example, records the type as a "brake boosting low fault", and notifies the fault display module 18 to output a first notification signal, so as to control the information output device 5 to output a notification message, for example, to turn on a warning lamp (normally on), and at the same time, to prompt the "brake boosting fault" by text, and the buzzer alarms the sound box to stop after 3 cycles.
Five brake boosting faults are introduced, including a large leakage fault, a small leakage fault, a vacuum degree sensor fault, a positive pole relay fault and a brake boosting low fault. And after the faults of large leakage, small leakage and vacuum degree sensor are judged, performing degradation treatment on the vacuum pump, wherein the degradation treatment comprises the following steps:
step 3A: and judging whether the brake system brakes and the vacuum pump stops working or not.
In particular, in the present embodiment, this step may be performed by the degradation processing module 16 (see fig. 2). And the degradation processing module 16 judges whether the brake pedal is stepped on and the vacuum pump 6 stops working currently, if so, the step 3B is executed, and if not, the step 3A is continuously executed.
And step 3B: and controlling the vacuum pump to start working.
Taking the electric vehicle of the embodiment as an example, the step sends a vacuum pump positive relay actuation instruction to start the vacuum pump 6 to operate (making a request for priority of the instruction to enable the pump to respond quickly).
And step 3C: and judging whether the continuous working time of the vacuum pump is not less than the fourth preset time.
If yes, executing the step 3D, otherwise, continuing to execute the step 3B.
And step 3D: and controlling the vacuum pump to stop working.
Taking the electric vehicle of the embodiment of the present invention as an example, the step is to control the positive relay 7 to be turned off by sending a vacuum pump positive relay turn-off command to the vacuum pump driving module (see fig. 2), so as to control the vacuum pump 6 to stop working.
When the positive relay is judged to be in fault, the vacuum pump start-stop control is continuously carried out according to the previous mode (such as a normal operation mode or a high-altitude operation mode).
When it is determined as the "brake boosting low failure", the speed limit process is performed to limit the vehicle speed as described in step S52.
The vacuum pump control method of this embodiment further includes power-on initialization, which may be implemented by the power-on initialization module 12, and specifically includes:
and 4A, detecting the vehicle power-ON state by the vehicle controller, judging whether the power-ON state is changed from OFF to ON, if so, executing a step 4B, otherwise, continuously executing the step 4A.
And 4B, sending a vacuum pump anode relay actuation instruction to the vacuum pump driving module to enable the vacuum pump to start working.
And step 4C: and judging whether the current vacuum degree is not less than a third preset pressure (optionally 72 kpa). If yes, executing the step 4D, otherwise, returning to execute the step 4B.
And step 4D: and sending a positive relay disconnection instruction to the vacuum pump driving module to stop the vacuum pump.
And 4E: and the fault detection module detects whether the steps have faults in real time. If yes, executing according to the strategy of the fault detection module. And if not, executing the vacuum pump start-stop control according to the strategy of the normal working mode.
The vacuum pump control method of the embodiment has the following advantages:
1) when the vehicle enters a high-altitude area to drive, the vehicle controller can identify and enter a high-altitude working mode through the control strategy, so that the failure of the vacuum pump 6 due to long-time working is avoided.
2) When the boosting system leaks air and the vacuum degree sensor 4 fails, the vehicle control unit can identify and enter a safety mode through the control strategy, and the vacuum pump 6 is prevented from failing due to prolonged working time.
3) When the relay fails, the vehicle control unit can identify and control the pump cathode relay 8 to be disconnected through the control strategy, so that the vacuum pump 6 is prevented from failing due to long-time work.
4) When the vacuum assistance is low due to air leakage or pump failure, the vehicle controller can identify and control the vehicle to enter a speed-limiting mode through the control strategy, so that the safety problem caused by insufficient brake assistance is avoided.
5) And an environmental pressure sensor and a brake pedal opening sensor are not required to be additionally arranged, so that the cost of a single vehicle is saved.
In addition, as shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a vacuum pump control apparatus 1, which includes a power-on initialization module 12, a normal operation module 13, a high altitude operation module 14, a fault detection module 11, a vacuum pump driving module 19, a fault storage module 15, a fault display module 18, a degradation processing module 16, and a speed limit processing module 17, so as to implement the vacuum pump control method.
