It will be apparent that the described embodiments are only some, but not all, embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
The following describes in detail the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to FIG. 1, one embodiment of the present invention provides a modular integrated suspension system comprising: a hub motor 1, the hub motor 1 being capable of being connected to a wheel 8 of an automobile; the steering knuckle 2 is sleeved on the output shaft of the hub motor 1; the spring damper 3, one end of the spring damper 3 is provided with a first spherical hinge 33, and can be hinged with the body 9 of the automobile through the first spherical hinge 33, and the other end of the spring damper 3 is fixedly connected with the steering knuckle 2; a slide fork 4, the slide fork 4 being mountable on a slide post 10 of a vehicle body 9 and being movable up and down along the slide post 10; the cross arm mechanism comprises a front cross arm 51 and a rear cross arm 52, wherein one end of the front cross arm 51 is connected with the sliding fork 4 and can rotate around the moving direction of the sliding fork 4, the other end of the front cross arm is hinged with the steering knuckle 2 through a second spherical hinge 53, one end of the rear cross arm 52 is connected with the sliding fork 4 and can rotate around the moving direction of the sliding fork 4, the other end of the rear cross arm 52 is hinged with the steering knuckle 2 through a third spherical hinge 54, the connecting line of the rotating center of one end of the front cross arm 51 and the central point of the second spherical hinge 53 is intersected with the extension line of the connecting line of the rotating center of one end of the rear cross arm 52 and the central point of the third spherical hinge 54; and the steering mechanism 6 is arranged on the sliding yoke 4 and connected with the steering knuckle 2, and is used for controlling the rotation of a kingpin axis formed by connecting the intersection point of the steering knuckle 2, the wheel hub motor 1 and the wheel 8 around the connecting line and the central point of the first spherical hinge 33.
Referring to fig. 2, in use, the modular integrated suspension system provided by an embodiment of the present invention, in which the in-wheel motor 1 is mounted in the wheel 8 and fixedly connected to the wheel 8, the spring damper 3 is hinged to the body 9 by the first ball pivot 33, and the fork 4 is slidably mounted on the strut 10 of the body 9, such that the wheel 8 has two degrees of freedom of bouncing up and down along the strut 10 of the body 9 and of rotating about the kingpin axis. When the turning angle of the wheels 8 is required to be adjusted, the steering mechanism 6 is used for controlling the steering knuckle 2 to rotate, so that the hub motor 1 connected with the steering knuckle 2 and the wheels 8 are driven to synchronously rotate, and the turning angle of the wheels 8 is adjusted; when the wheel 8 needs to rotate, the wheel 8 is controlled to rotate at a corresponding rotation speed by the in-wheel motor 1.
Further, since the kingpin axis is a key factor of the wheel alignment parameters, which affects the magnitude of the automatic centering and steering resistance moment of the wheel 8, the kingpin axis is generally formed by the connection line of the upper and lower ball pivot points of the suspension. In the modularized integrated suspension system provided by the embodiment of the invention, the center point of the first spherical hinge 33 is an upper spherical hinge point, the connecting line of the rotation center of one end of the front cross arm 51 and the center point of the second spherical hinge 53, and the intersection point of the extension line of the connecting line of the rotation center of one end of the rear cross arm 52 and the center point of the third spherical hinge 54 is the instantaneous rotation center of the front cross arm 51 and the rear cross arm 52, and the instantaneous rotation center can be regarded as a virtual lower spherical hinge point of the suspension system, and the connecting line of the virtual lower spherical hinge point and the center point of the first spherical hinge 33 forms a main pin axis. Therefore, when the modularized integrated suspension system is designed and used, the positions of the virtual lower ball hinge points can be changed by changing the connection positions of the front cross arm 51 and the rear cross arm 52 with the sliding yoke 4 and the steering knuckle 2, so that the position adjustment of the kingpin axis is realized, the ideal kingpin axis position is obtained, the steering resistance moment is further reduced, and the steering portability of the wheels 8 is improved. Meanwhile, the front cross arm 51 and the rear cross arm 52 are utilized to connect the sliding yoke 4 with the steering knuckle 2, and the instantaneous rotation centers of the front cross arm 51 and the rear cross arm 52 are adopted as the lower ball hinge point of the suspension system, so that the adjustability of suspension positioning parameters can be realized, the length of the cross arm can be reduced, and the occupation of the suspension system to the space in a vehicle can be effectively reduced.
Referring to fig. 1 to 3, in an embodiment of the present invention, a spring damper 3 includes: the spring 31 and the shock absorber 32, the spring 31 cover is established on the shock absorber 32, and first spherical hinge 33 is installed to shock absorber 32 one end, and shock absorber 32 one end can be articulated with automobile body 9 through first spherical hinge 33, and the other end is fixed connection with knuckle 2.
By connecting the suspension system with the vehicle body 9 by means of the spring damper 3 comprising the spring 31 and the damper 32, the spring damper 3 can play a role in buffering and damping during running of the vehicle, improving the stability and life of the suspension system and improving the comfort and safety of the vehicle.
Alternatively, the first ball hinge 33 may be a rubber ball hinge. Vibration isolation and noise reduction effects can be further improved by utilizing the rubber spherical hinge.
Referring to fig. 1-3, in one embodiment of the present invention, the fork 4 is provided with a front sleeve 41 adapted to the front strut of the vehicle body 9 and a rear sleeve 42 adapted to the rear strut of the vehicle body 9, and the fork 4 is slidably mounted on the front strut and the rear strut through the front sleeve 41 and the rear sleeve 42.
By providing the front sleeve 41 and the rear sleeve 42 on the slide fork 4, the slide fork 4 is slidably mounted on the slide post 10 of the vehicle body 9 by utilizing the cooperation of the sleeve and the slide post 10, so that the direct contact abrasion of the slide fork 4 and the slide post 10 can be avoided, the sliding friction resistance is reduced, and the service life of the slide fork 4 can be prolonged.
The axial direction of the strut 10 can be varied by design to achieve the desired suspension positioning parameter profile.
Further, referring to fig. 3, both ends of the front cross arm 51 and the rear cross arm 52 are provided with rubber bushings 55, and both ends of the front cross arm 51 and the rear cross arm 52 are connected to the slip yoke 4 through the rubber bushings 55.
Connecting the cross arm and the slip yoke 4 through the rubber bush 55 allows a slight interference between the cross arm and the slip yoke 4 when the wheel 8 rotates, and also prevents noise of the wheel 8 from being transmitted to the vehicle body 9.
Further, referring to fig. 1 and 4, the steering mechanism 6 includes: a worm housing 61, the worm housing 61 being mounted on the slip yoke 4; a worm installed in the worm housing 61; the worm motor 62, the worm motor 62 is installed on worm shell 61, the output shaft of the worm motor 62 is connected with worm; the sector rack 63, one end of the sector rack 63 passes through the worm housing 61, the other end is hinged with the knuckle 2 through the fourth spherical hinge 64, the sector rack 63 is meshed with the worm, and the rotation axis of the sector rack 63 is substantially coincident with the kingpin axis.
Specifically, when the steering mechanism 6 is in use, the worm motor 62 drives the worm to rotate, the worm drives the meshed sector rack 63 to synchronously rotate, and the sector rack 63 drives the steering knuckle 2 to rotate, so that the steering knuckle 2, the hub motor 1 and the wheels 8 connected with the steering knuckle are synchronously rotated. Taking the direction shown in fig. 4 as an example, when the wheel 8 needs to be controlled to rotate right, the worm motor 62 drives the sector rack 63 to rotate clockwise; when the wheel 8 needs to be controlled to rotate left, the worm motor 62 drives the sector rack 63 to rotate anticlockwise.
More specifically, referring to fig. 6, taking in-situ steering of an automobile as an example, in-situ steering means that the automobile rotates around its geometric center, when the automobile needs to perform in-situ steering, the steering mechanism 6 controls the front and rear wheels 8 of the automobile to rotate at a certain angle to the inner sides of two directions respectively, and then the in-wheel motor 1 controls the rotation directions and speeds of the four wheels 8, so that one wheel 8 runs forward, the other wheel 8 runs backward, and the same movement speed is maintained, thereby realizing in-situ steering of the automobile.
More specifically, referring to fig. 7, taking the case of the vehicle running obliquely, when the vehicle needs to run obliquely, the steering mechanism 6 controls the four wheels 8 to rotate by the same angle in the same direction so that the four wheels 8 all face the running direction, and then the in-wheel motor 1 controls the rotation direction and speed of the four wheels 8 so that the four wheels 8 rotate in the same rotation direction and rotation speed, thereby realizing the oblique running of the vehicle. The oblique running is the combined motion of the longitudinal straight running and the transverse running, the yaw rate of the vehicle body 9 can be reduced by adopting the oblique running, the tendency of dynamic lateral deviation of the vehicle body 9 is effectively restrained, and the control stability is improved. In addition, the steering mechanism 6 controls the front wheels 8 and the rear wheels 8 to steer in the same direction, so that the wheels 8 are all turned by corresponding angles in the same direction, the steering instantaneous centers of the four wheels 8 are intersected at the same point, and then the hub motor 1 controls the 4 wheels 8 to rotate at corresponding steering angles and rotating speeds, so that the same-direction steering of the automobile can be realized, and the steering radius is large at the moment, but the automobile has better stability.
More specifically, referring to fig. 8, taking reverse steering of an automobile as an example, when the automobile needs to be reverse-steered, the steering mechanism 6 controls the front and rear wheels 8 of the automobile to rotate at corresponding angles in different steering directions, so that the steering centroids of the four wheels 8 intersect at the same point, and then the hub motor 1 controls the rotation direction and speed of the four wheels 8, so that the four wheels 8 rotate at corresponding steering angles and rotation speeds, thereby realizing reverse steering of the automobile. Wherein the turning radius of the automobile when reverse steering is performed can be adjusted by changing the steering angle of the wheels 8, so that steering movement under the minimum turning radius is realized.
In an embodiment of the invention, by adopting the mode of meshing and driving the sector rack 63 and the worm, not only can large-transmission-ratio transmission be realized, but also reverse self-locking can be realized, and the stability and reliability of steering control of the wheels 8 are improved. Meanwhile, each wheel 8 can be independently controlled through the corresponding worm motor 62, so that multiple motion control modes such as independent steering, in-situ steering, oblique running and the like of multiple wheels 8 can be realized. In addition, compared with the conventional suspension structure, the steering mechanism 6 can omit a rod system structure, so that the jumping of the wheels 8 and the movement interference of the steering mechanism 6 can be effectively reduced.
