Referring to Fig. 3, the maximum engine torque TEmaX and a lower calibrated motor torque Tgcaj separated from the maximum torque are shown as a function of engine speed wE during start of the engine 230 of the motor vehicle 100 shown in Fig. 1, according to an embodiment of the invention. Such a curve is referred to in Fig. 2a and Fig. 5.
The solid line shows the maximum motor torque TEmaX as a function of motor speed (and for a motor, ie the torque that the motor max can give at the specific speed, here called the maximum torque curve.
The dashed line shows a lower engine torque TEp prescribed for the same engine as a function of the engine speed mg. The alternative dashed curve is achieved by recalibrating the maximum torque curve.
This results in a different increase in speed at the start than is the case with the solid curve which shows the maximum torque of the engine 230 as a function of the speed at start. Since it is simulated with a prescribed lower motor torque depending on the speed that the motor 230 is weaker, a previous speed increase is obtained. An advantage of this is that in this way one can change the feeling when operating the actuator / accelerator pedal 250 so that a more powerful feeling is obtained, ie. that the engine speed increases faster when you press the throttle.
As can be seen from Fig. 3, the engine torque curve TEmaX, TEp is strongly speed-dependent in the speed range used at start-up. In order for the motor 230 to be speed controlled at start-up when the clutch 235 loads the motor with a high clutch torque TC, an excess torque is required which 260 The speed regulator can be proportional to this torque margin. To use the speed controller. In order to be able to rapidly increase the engine speed when engaging the clutch 235 during start-up where the clutch 235 loads the engine 230, a large torque is required for the speed regulator to effect this increase in speed. With a quick connection, the speed must be increased more than with a slow connection to the same torque. Furthermore, it is required that with a quick connection of the clutch 235 the speed must be increased earlier than with a slow connection to the same torque. The torque required for the speed controller to effect this speed increase is consequently dynamic and is hereinafter referred to as When Achieved, a dynamic torque addition TD is required. the torque corresponding to the dynamic torque supplement TD increase the engine speed.
Consequently, the motor has a predetermined motor torque / motor speed dependence.
Referring to Fig. 4a, the requested clutch torque TCr is shown as a function of actuator / accelerator pedal position of an accelerator pedal 250 of the motor vehicle shown in Fig. 1, according to an embodiment of the invention.
Based on position of actuator / accelerator pedal 250, ie. requested force by the driver by means of the actuator / accelerator pedal 250, the requested clutch torque TCr is determined according to the curve in Fig. 4a. By the curve increasing exponentially with the position of the actuator / accelerator pedal 250 so that when the actuator / accelerator pedal 250 approaches full activation, i.e. fully depressed position (100%) increases the required coupling torque TC, faster, and consequently gives a certain feeling when gassing by means of the actuator / accelerator pedal 250. The calibration curve can have any suitable shape for the desired sensation of actuator / accelerator pedal and can according to a variant be linear. Referring to Fig. 4b, clutch torque TC is shown as a function of clutch position of a clutch 250 of the motor vehicle shown in Fig. 1, according to an embodiment of the invention.
The coupling torque is modeled according to a variant by means of coupling input data, by knowing the design and properties of the coupling, the coupling torque TC being modeled based on the coupling position, by regulating the coupling to a certain position, where the coupling position is arranged to be sensed, according to the mapped estimated curve. 4b which describes the relationship between the clutch position and the torque transmitted to the clutch.
Referring to Fig. 5, a flow chart showing a method according to an embodiment of the invention is shown.
The method comprises a first method step S510. In the step, the desired coupling torque TCr is requested. The desired coupling torque is requested by the driver activating the actuator 250, normally accelerator pedal, by, according to a variant, depressing the accelerator pedal to a certain position.
The method comprises a second method step S515 which is performed on the basis of S510. In S515, the current clutch torque TC of the clutch 235 is determined. The current clutch torque of the first process step can be determined in different ways.
According to S515 that the torque TC by sensing said torque by means of one embodiment is performed, the step of determining a current torque sensor 280 is performed; 280a; 280b; 280c; 280d, which is arranged in connection with the coupling 235 for said sensing. Position of the sensor to sense the coupling torque is discussed with reference to Fig. 2b. An advantage of determining the coupling torque TC by means of a sensor is that a relatively accurate determination can be achieved. 10 15 20 25 30 17 According to S515 that switching torque TC by modeling the switching torque by means of one embodiment, the step of determining the current switching input data is performed. By knowing the design and properties of the coupling, a model of the coupling 235 is created, whereby the coupling torque TC can be modeled based on the coupling position. According to a variant, the coupling torque TC is determined by regulating the coupling to a certain position according to a mapped estimated curve which describes the relationship between the coupling position and the torque transmitted to the coupling. An example of such a curve is shown in Fig. 4b. An advantage of modeling the coupling torque is that no sensor is required, but that the coupling torque for different coupling positions is known in advance. This is used to advantage at low torques. The position of the coupling is controlled by means of a regulator 290, which controls the coupling to the position which gives the requested coupling torque.
According to S515 that the torque TC by estimating the torque TC from an embodiment is performed, the step is determined to determine the current motor torque TE, the motor 230 moment of inertia JM and the motor speed increase / acceleration uöE, i.e. the derivative of the engine speed, by subtracting the product of the inertia torque JM and the speed increase cóE from the engine torque TE. An advantage is that no sensor is required. Suitable for higher torques where errors in reporting / determining the motor torque TE do not affect to the same extent as at lower torques. This embodiment and the embodiment where the clutch torque TC is modeled can thus be advantageously combined, where the clutch torque TC is modeled at relatively low motor torques and the clutch torque TC is determined by means of the motor torque at relatively higher motor torques.
The method comprises a third method step S520 which is performed on the basis of the first method step. In the step, the torque increase TC is determined, ie. at what speed the clutch 235 is engaged, the closing speed of the clutch 235. This is thus the derivative of the coupling torque.
The closing speed of the clutch is adapted so that the clutch 235 is brought into engagement with an appropriate speed so that a possible required increase in speed is achieved before the requested coupling torque TC is reached.
The torque increase TC can be determined in different ways.
According to a preferred embodiment, the clutch torque increase TC is calibrated, i.e. the closing speed of the clutch 235, so that there is a maximum speed at which the clutch 235 can be closed. This is advantageous when using an electro-hydraulic coupling system where the coupling 235 can be easily and quickly controlled by means of an electronic control unit.
According to an alternative embodiment, the coupling 235 itself may be configured and constructed in such a way that when it is closed, it is engaged at a certain desired maximum speed. This is for example applicable to pneumatic couplings, depending on mechanical construction, spring characteristics, etc.
The method comprises a fourth method step S525 which is performed after the third method step. In the step, the dynamic torque addition TD required to achieve the desired engine speed increase aäE is determined to achieve the requested clutch torque increase.
The dynamic coupling torque TD is obtained by multiplying the moment of inertia JM of the motor 230 by the motor acceleration aäE, i.e. the engine speed increase, ie. the derivative of the engine speed. The inertia of the motor 230 is known for each motor 230.
The derivative of the motor speed is obtained according to one embodiment by considering the motor torque increase TE, i.e. the derivative of the engine torque in a curve showing a motor torque TE predetermined by the engine as a function of engine speed wE, where the engine torque-engine speed curve according to a variant is the maximum engine torque TEmaX of the engine at different engine speeds m5 and according to another variant a pre-calibrated curve where the engine torque TE is lower than the maximum motor torque TEmaX, which results in an earlier increase in speed due to the fact that it is then assumed that the motor 230 is weaker than it actually is. An example of such a curve is shown in Fig. 3.
The engine torque increase TE, ie. derivative of the motor torque, is obtained according to a variant by the fact that the motor torque increase TE is the same as the clutch torque increase TC.
The method comprises a fifth method step S530 which is performed after the fourth method step. In the step, the required motor torque TEn is determined to achieve the requested clutch torque TCr.
The required motor torque TEn is obtained by adding the dynamic torque addition TD, the current clutch torque TC and a fault torque margin Tmar, which fault torque margin takes into account fault tolerances of the motor 230 due to, for example, overshoots and should cover faults in the motor 230 torque reporting. According to a variant, the fault torque margin Tmar is constant, for example 100 Nm. According to another variant, the fault torque margin Tma is variable, for example speed-dependent.
The method comprises a sixth method step S535 which is performed after the fifth method step. In this step, the required motor speed mEn is determined to achieve the required torque Tcr.
The required engine speed is determined by means of the motor predetermined engine torque / engine speed dependence. The required engine speed coEn is obtained from the required engine torque TEn by using the engine torque-engine speed curve associated with the engine 230, for example according to Fig. 3, from which curve the required engine speed can be read.
The method comprises a seventh process step S540 which is performed after the sixth process step. In this step, the required motor speed coEn is compared in order to achieve the required coupling torque Tcr motor speed wEd with a certain predetermined torque. This engine speed is according to a variant the idle speed.
“IO 15 20 25 20 According to another variant, this motor speed is a minimum calibrated switching speed that is attempted to be maintained if no speed increase is required.
If the required engine speed wEn is lower than the predetermined engine speed coEd, no engine speed increase is required. In that case, the excess power is sufficient for the vehicle to get going.
If the required engine speed oaEn is higher than the predetermined engine speed wEd, in an eighth procedure step S545 the engine speed is increased to the required engine speed (ngn.
The method comprises a ninth method step S550 in which it is examined whether the coupling 235 is engaged or not, i.e. if the clutch still slips, so-called slip, or if it is fully engaged, so-called lock up.
If the clutch 235 is engaged, the starting procedure is completed. Accordingly, if the clutch 235 is still slipping, the clutch 235 is still being engaged, so the process begins again by requesting the desired clutch torque TCr. In the event that the required switching torque TCr decreases, the engine speed decreases (oEn so that a decrease, the required speed reduction is obtained.
Referring to Fig. 6, an algorithm according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The algorithm shows how the method according to the invention is executed.
Coupling torque TC, is requested, which is done, for example, by depressing the vehicle's accelerator pedal. The current coupling torque TC is determined, which can be done in different ways 601, 602, 603.
