この発明は、走行用の電動機を含む走行装置を備えた電動車両に関し、特に、走行装置の冷却を行う冷却制御装置に関する。 The present invention relates to an electric vehicle including a traveling device including an electric motor for traveling, and more particularly to a cooling control device that cools the traveling device.
近年、電気自動車(EV)、ハイブリッド自動車(HEV)、燃料電池自動車FCV)等の、環境に配慮した電動車両が注目されている。電動車両には、走行用の電動機を含む走行装置が搭載されている。走行装置は、電動機以外にも、発電機、電動機制御用のインバータ、アクセサリーコンセントAC100V出力用のDCACインバータ、DC12V供給用のDCDCコンバータ、高電圧バッテリ、高電圧バッテリ用の充電器などの、高電圧機器が含まれる。
電動車両は、これらの高電圧機器を含む走行装置の冷却、または加温のために、走行装置を冷却するための冷却水を収めて走行装置に接続される冷却装置と、冷却装置に流れる冷却水の循環速度を変更する制御装置とを備えた冷却制御装置を用意し、高電圧機器を含む走行装置に冷却水通路にて冷却水を循環させて過熱防止、低温下での性能低下を防いでいる。
In recent years, environmentally-friendly electric vehicles such as electric vehicles (EV), hybrid vehicles (HEV), and fuel cell vehicles FCV) have attracted attention. An electric vehicle is equipped with a traveling device including an electric motor for traveling. In addition to the electric motor, the traveling device has a high voltage such as a generator, an inverter for controlling the electric motor, a DCAC inverter for accessory outlet AC100V output, a DCDC converter for supplying DC12V, a high voltage battery, a charger for high voltage battery, etc. Equipment is included.
In order to cool or warm the traveling device including these high-voltage devices, the electric vehicle stores cooling water for cooling the traveling device and is connected to the traveling device, and cooling that flows through the cooling device. A cooling control device equipped with a control device that changes the circulation speed of water is prepared, and cooling water is circulated through the cooling water passage to the traveling device including high voltage equipment to prevent overheating and performance deterioration at low temperatures. It is out.
従来、電動車両の冷却制御装置は、車両の走行に用いられる電動機を冷却するために、電動機にウォータジャケットを形成し、このウォータジャケットに冷却水を循環供給する冷却水通路を接続した電動機の冷却装置が知られている(特許文献1)。また、この冷却装置は、冷却水を加圧するウォータポンプと冷却水が電動機から受け取った熱を放熱するためのヒートシンクが設けられ、電動機を冷却中に冷却水の温度が上昇することを防止している。 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a cooling control device for an electric vehicle has a water jacket formed in the electric motor for cooling the electric motor used for running the vehicle, and the cooling of the electric motor is connected to a cooling water passage that circulates and supplies cooling water to the water jacket. An apparatus is known (Patent Document 1). In addition, this cooling device is provided with a water pump for pressurizing the cooling water and a heat sink for dissipating the heat received by the cooling water from the electric motor, and prevents the temperature of the cooling water from rising while cooling the electric motor. Yes.
ところで、前記冷却制御装置に備えられた冷却装置は、放熱用のラジエータ、水を循環させる電動ウォータポンプ、冷却水通路内のエアを注入口から大気に排出するデガスタンクで構成される。このデガスタンクは、冷却水通路内の余剰水、冷却水の熱膨張、経年による水量増減を吸収する、リザーブタンクの機能も備えている。
上記のような冷却装置においては、冷却水の交換や使用による変質などの原因により冷却水通路中に気泡が発生することがある。また、気泡は、冷却水と比較して熱の吸収が悪く、電動機の冷却性能を低下させてしまうため、電動ウォータポンプで冷却水を定期的に循環させ、デガスタンクに気泡を放出させる必要がある。
Incidentally, the cooling device provided in the cooling control device includes a radiator for heat dissipation, an electric water pump for circulating water, and a degas tank for discharging air in the cooling water passage from the inlet to the atmosphere. This degas tank also has a reserve tank function for absorbing excess water in the cooling water passage, thermal expansion of the cooling water, and fluctuations in water volume over time.
In the cooling device as described above, bubbles may be generated in the cooling water passage due to changes in the cooling water or deterioration due to use. In addition, air bubbles absorb less heat than cooling water and reduce the cooling performance of the electric motor, so it is necessary to periodically circulate the cooling water with an electric water pump and release the air bubbles to the degas tank. is there.
しかし、冷却制御装置による電動ウォータポンプの駆動条件は、車両が走行可能状態であることや高電圧バッテリが充電状態であり、かつ、冷却水温が設定温度に達した場合など、動作する条件が限定される。このため、容易に電動ウォータポンプを駆動することができず、冷却水を循環させ、デガスタンクに気泡を放出させることができなかった。
しかも、気泡放出のために電動ウォータポンプを駆動する手法には、特殊な工具やサービスツールを用意し、複雑な操作や長時間の作業を要求される。さらに、冷却水通路は、一般的に屈曲させながら設けられるため、単に電動ウォータポンプを駆動して冷却水を循環させても、気泡が通路内に残留する虞があった。
このため、電動車両を使用する乗員は、車両メーカーなどに気泡の除去を依頼しなければならず、利便性が悪いという問題があった。
However, the driving condition of the electric water pump by the cooling control device is limited to operating conditions such as when the vehicle is ready to travel, the high voltage battery is in a charged state, and the cooling water temperature reaches the set temperature. Is done. For this reason, the electric water pump could not be driven easily, the cooling water was circulated, and the bubbles could not be discharged into the degas tank.
In addition, a special tool or service tool is prepared as a method for driving the electric water pump for releasing bubbles, and complicated operations and long-time work are required. Furthermore, since the cooling water passage is generally provided while being bent, there is a possibility that bubbles may remain in the passage even if the electric water pump is simply driven to circulate the cooling water.
For this reason, the passenger | crew who uses an electric vehicle had to request removal of a bubble from a vehicle maker etc., and there existed a problem that the convenience was bad.
そこで、この発明は上記の問題に鑑みて成されたものであり、利便性が良く、確実な気泡除去ができる電動車両の冷却制御装置を提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a cooling control device for an electric vehicle that is convenient and can reliably remove bubbles.
この発明は、走行用の駆動力を出力する電動機を含む走行装置と、前記走行装置を冷却するための冷却水を収め、前記走行装置に接続される冷却装置と、前記冷却装置に流れる冷却水の循環速度を変更する制御装置と、前記走行装置に電力を供給する蓄電池とを備えた電動車両の冷却制御装置であって、前記制御装置は、前記走行装置の温度に応じて前記冷却水の循環速度を変更する冷却制御部と、乗員が行う所定の操作を検出する操作検出部と、前記蓄電池の充電量が走行可能な量であると判断され、前記所定の操作が検出されたとき、前記冷却制御部が設定する循環速度より速い循環速度に前記冷却水を制御する気泡除去制御部とを備えることを特徴とする。 The present invention relates to a traveling device including an electric motor that outputs a driving force for traveling, a cooling device for storing cooling water for cooling the traveling device, connected to the traveling device, and cooling water flowing through the cooling device. An electric vehicle cooling control device comprising: a control device that changes the circulation speed of the vehicle; and a storage battery that supplies electric power to the traveling device , wherein the control device is configured to control the cooling water according to the temperature of the traveling device. When the cooling control unit that changes the circulation speed, the operation detection unit that detects a predetermined operation performed by an occupant, and the amount of charge of the storage battery is determined to be a travelable amount, and the predetermined operation is detected, A bubble removal control unit configured to control the cooling water at a circulation rate faster than a circulation rate set by the cooling control unit.
このような構成によって、乗員は、車両メーカーなどへ気泡の除去を依頼する必要がなく、利便性が向上する。また、屈曲した冷却水通路であっても確実に気泡を除去することができる。
当然ながら気泡除去制御による冷却水の循環速度は、冷却装置の電動ウォータポンプを最大出力で駆動させたとき、最も効率良く気泡を除去することができる。
With such a configuration, the power of members, vehicle manufacturers there is no need to ask the removal of air bubbles to, such as, the convenience is improved. Further, it can be a cooling water passage that bending song to remove reliably the bubbles.
The circulation rate of the cooling water by Naturally while bubble removing control, the electric water pump of the cooling device when driven at maximum output, can be removed most efficiently bubbles.

If the determination (103) is YES, the bubble removal control is executed as described above (104), and the process returns to the determination (101) (105). If this determination (103) is NO, cooling control is executed (107), and the process returns to determination (101) (105).
In the cooling control, the rotational speed of the
電動車両の冷却制御装置1は、水温検出手段17の検出する水温が設定水温に到達した場合に、冷却制御部18による冷却制御を実行し、電動ウォータポンプ13を駆動して冷却水を循環速度V1で循環させ、走行装置2を冷却する。冷却制御部18は、水温に従って、段階的に電動ウォータポンプ13の回転数を増加させて循環速度V1を変更し、冷却を行う。冷却制御部18は、冷却対象の走行装置2から、冷却要求信号を受信した場合も、電動ウォータポンプ13を駆動させる。
なお、冷却制御部18は、上記に加えて、車速に応じ、ラジエータ冷却用電動ファンも駆動させる。冷却制御部18は、冷却水が入っていない状態(空転)を検知すると、電動ウォータポンプ13の軸受けの過熱を防止するために間欠運転を行う制御を実行する。
また、電動車両の冷却制御装置1は、電動車両が走行可能状態(高電圧バッテリ10の充電量が電動機5による走行が可能な量)、または、高電圧バッテリ10が充電状態(充電中)であり、かつ、操作検出部19によりフードが開状態であることを検出した場合に、気泡除去制御部20による気泡除去制御に移行し、気泡除去制御部20に気泡除去制御の実行許可を出力し、電動ウォータポンプ13を駆動させる。このとき、気泡除去制御部20は、電動ウォータポンプ13を冷却制御よりも高い回転数で駆動し、冷却制御部18が設定する循環速度V1より速い循環速度V2(V1<V2)に冷却水を制御する。
気泡除去制御を実行する条件を判定する際に、電動車両の状態とフードの開状態との順序は問わない。気泡除去制御部20は、気泡除去制御の実行中に、水温、冷却対象の走行装置2からの冷却信号、に関係なく、電動ウォータポンプ13を全開駆動させる。これにより、気泡除去制御部20は、冷却制御部18が設定する循環速度V1より速い循環速度V2(V1<V2)に冷却水を制御する。
気泡除去制御部20は、操作検出部19によりフードが閉状態であることを検出した場合、イグニッションキーがオフ操作された場合、高電圧バッテリ10の充電が停止した場合に、冷却制御部18による冷却制御に戻る。なお、気泡除去制御部20は、冷却水が入っていない状態(空転)を検知すると、冷却制御部18による冷却制御と同様に、電動ウォータポンプ13の軸受けの過熱を防止するために間欠運転を行う制御を実行する。
When the water temperature detected by the water
In addition to the above, the cooling

When determining the conditions for executing the bubble removal control, the order of the state of the electric vehicle and the open state of the hood does not matter. During the execution of the bubble removal control, the bubble
When the
このように、電動車両の冷却制御装置1は、気泡除去制御部20が、冷却制御より速い循環速度V2で冷却水を循環させ、気泡を除去する。従って、乗員は、車両メーカーなどへ気泡の除去を依頼する必要がなく、利便性が向上する。
また、乗員が所定の操作を行うと、気泡除去制御部20は、冷却水の循環を開始する。このとき、気泡除去制御部20は、冷却制御時の循環速度V1より速い循環速度V2で冷却水を循環させるため、屈曲した冷却水通路15であっても確実に気泡を除去することができる。
なお、当然ながら気泡除去制御による冷却水の循環速度V2は、電動ウォータポンプ13を最大出力で駆動させたとき、最も効率良く気泡を除去することができる。
乗員が行う所定の操作を検出する操作検出部19は、乗員が行う操作による少なくとも電動車両のフードの開閉状態を検出する。制御装置4は、電動車両が走行可能状態(高電圧バッテリ10の充電量が電動機5による走行が可能な量)、または、高電圧バッテリ10が充電状態(充電中)であり、かつ、乗員が行った操作で操作検出部19によりフードが開状態であることを検出したとき、気泡除去制御部18に気泡除去制御の実行許可を出力する。
これにより、乗員がフードを開いたときには、冷却制御装置1により気泡除去制御が実行されるため、電動車両の点検時に自動的に気泡除去制御を実行させることができる。
Thus, the cooling control device 1 of the electric vehicle, bubble removing
Moreover, if a passenger | crew performs predetermined | prescribed operation, the bubble
Of course, the cooling water circulation speed V <b> 2 by the bubble removal control can remove bubbles most efficiently when the
The
As a result, when the occupant opens the hood, the bubble removal control is executed by the cooling control device 1, so that the bubble removal control can be automatically executed when the electric vehicle is inspected.
この発明は、電動車両の冷却制御装置において、便性が良く、確実な気泡除去ができるものであり、高温下、低温下では充放電性能が低下する高電圧バッテリを水で冷却、加温する冷却装置を備えた電動車両にも適用することが可能である。 The present invention provides a cooling control device for an electric vehicle, which has good convenience and can reliably remove bubbles, and cools and heats a high voltage battery whose charge / discharge performance deteriorates at high and low temperatures with water. The present invention can also be applied to an electric vehicle equipped with a cooling device.
