In this example, the exhaust port 33 and the control air port 34 can be connected in and out, the parking control valve 3 can be controlled according to the electric control signal of the ADCU, when the parking is required to be released, the electric control signal controls the internal air inlet electromagnetic valve to operate for a short time, the air inlet 31 and the control air port 34 are disconnected after being communicated for a short time, and the control air port 34 realizes pressure maintaining; when the vehicle needs to be parked, the electric control signal controls the internal exhaust electromagnetic valve to act for a short time, the control air port 34 is disconnected after being communicated with the exhaust port 33 for a short time, and the control air port 34 is controlled to realize pressure relief.
The air outlet 32 is connected with the control air port 34 through a throttle hole, and when the vehicle normally runs, if slow air pressure leakage occurs in the standby parking control mechanism 4 of the control air port 34, the air outlet 32 can supplement air pressure to the control air port 34 through the throttle hole, so that the air inlet 31 and the air outlet 32 are kept in a communicated state, and the condition that the control air port 34 is parked due to air leakage when the vehicle normally runs is avoided.
In some alternative embodiments, the backup parking control mechanism 4 includes: a parking control line 42, a pressure relief valve 41 and a remote control unit 43.
Wherein, one end of the parking control pipeline 42 is connected with the control air port 34; the pressure release valve 41 is connected with the other end of the parking control pipeline 42; the remote control unit 43 is used for sending a remote control signal to control the relief valve 41 so as to maintain the set pressure or relieve the pressure of the control air port 34.

When the vehicle encounters an emergency situation and the ADCU fails to work and cannot realize parking through the automatic control parking control valve 3, an emergency parking instruction can be sent to the remote control unit 43, the remote control unit 43 sends a control signal corresponding to the control instruction to the pressure release valve 41, the pressure release valve 41 is opened at the moment, the control air port 34 is communicated with the parking control pipeline 42 through the pressure release valve 41, so that the pressure of the control air port 34 is released, at the moment, the air inlet 31 is disconnected from the air outlet 32, the air outlet 32 is communicated with the air outlet 33, so that the air in the parking air chamber 1 is discharged, so that the pressure in the parking air chamber 1 is controlled, and emergency parking is realized.
In some optional embodiments, the backup parking control mechanism 4 further includes at least one emergency stop switch 5 disposed outside the vehicle body to control the opening and closing of the relief valve 41.
In the present embodiment, for the sake of insurance, since the existing unmanned vehicles mostly travel in a closed environment in a campus, the flow of people is large, especially some experimental vehicles.

In some alternative embodiments, the pressure relief valve 41 is an energized normally closed solenoid valve. In the embodiment, the pressure relief valve 41 is an energized normally closed electromagnetic valve, and when the controller and the power supply equipment are powered off, the pressure relief valve 41 is triggered to open, so that the vehicle is parked, and the situation that the pressure relief valve 41 is not detected under the condition that the vehicle cannot be controlled and the vehicle still runs normally is avoided, but the pressure relief valve 41 is already failed, and the function of emergency stop cannot be realized. The energized normally closed solenoid valve includes a solenoid valve air inlet, a solenoid valve air outlet, and a solenoid valve air outlet, which are respectively marked as (i), (ii), and (iii) in the pressure release valve 41. When the pressure relief valve 41 is electrified, the electromagnetic valve air inlet is communicated with the electromagnetic valve air outlet, the electromagnetic valve air outlet is disconnected with the electromagnetic valve air outlet, and the electromagnetic valve air inlet is blocked; when the pressure relief valve 41 is powered off, the electromagnetic valve air inlet and the electromagnetic valve air outlet are disconnected, and the electromagnetic valve air outlet is communicated with the electromagnetic valve air outlet, so that air exhaust and pressure relief are realized.
In some optional embodiments, the unmanned vehicle emergency braking device further comprises a brake braking mechanism comprising: a brake air chamber 61, a brake air source 62 and a brake control valve 63.

In this embodiment, when the ADCU fails and cannot realize the parking control by automatically controlling the parking control valve 3, the brake control valve 63 may change the on-off state according to the control signal of the remote control unit 43, specifically: the remote control unit 43 sends a braking instruction to the brake control valve 63, at the moment, the brake control valve 63 forms a passage, the air inlet end of the brake control valve 63 is communicated with the brake air source 62 through an air inlet pipeline, the air outlet end of the brake control valve communicates the brake air source 62 with the brake air cavity 61 through an air outlet pipeline, and the brake air source 62 injects air to the parking air cavity 1 through the air inlet pipeline, the brake control valve 63 and the air outlet pipeline to realize braking.

When the ADCU is operable, the ADCU is preferentially used to send a control command to the brake control valve 63 through the brake controller 64 and to send a control command to the parking control valve 3; when the ADCU fails, the remote control unit 43 may send a control command to the parking control valve 3 directly, the brake controller 64 may send a control command to the brake control valve 63, and the pressure relief valve 41 may send a control command to open the pressure relief valve 41 to release the pressure of the control air port 34, so as to control the parking control valve 3 to release the pressure, and stop the vehicle.
In some alternative embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, the outlet line communicates with the parking control line 42 through the pressure maintaining line 7, and the pressure maintaining line 7 is provided with a check valve 71 for injecting air into the parking control line 42 when the brake control valve 63 is opened.
In this embodiment, when the vehicle is traveling, if control gas port 34 pressure release, air inlet 31 and control gas port 34 intercommunication go wrong, when can't provide the set pressure to control gas port 34, or control gas port 34 and gas vent 33 break off after communicating for a short time, lead to control gas port 34 pressure release, and can't keep pressure, air inlet 31 and gas outlet 32 disconnection, gas outlet 32 and gas vent 33 intercommunication, with the gas in the discharge parking air chamber 1, can release pressure fast in the parking air chamber 1, emergency parking, the vehicle that has certain speed of a motor vehicle, under parking air supply 2 and parking control valve 3 cooperation work, directly carry out parking operation, the vehicle is comparatively easy out of control.
At this time, the ADCU sends a control command to the brake control valve 63 through the brake controller 64. In the scheme, the air outlet pipeline and the parking control pipeline 42 are communicated through the pressure maintaining pipeline 7, the pressure maintaining pipeline 7 is provided with the one-way valve 71, when the brake control valve 63 forms a passage, the pressure maintaining pipeline 7 can inject air into the parking control pipeline 42 at the same time, set pressure is provided for the control air port 34, the air inlet 31 and the air outlet 32 can be communicated again, the air outlet 32 is disconnected with the air outlet 33, the parking control valve 3 is relieved of exhausting outwards, the parking air source 2 injects air into the parking air cavity 1 through the parking control valve 3, parking action is relieved, the brake braking mechanism is enabled to take over control over a vehicle, emergency parking operation under a certain vehicle speed is avoided, driving braking force and parking braking force are superposed, the brake is damaged, and the vehicle is out of control.
As shown in fig. 4, in some alternative embodiments, the unmanned vehicle emergency braking device further comprises a braking preference mechanism 8, which comprises: a shut-off valve 81 and a brake preference conduit 82.
