Definitions

- the electrical actuation of such brake systems consists, for example, in the actuation of the valves which influence the brake pressure in the wheel brakes hydraulically or pneumatically.
- the wheel brakes are actuated by an electric motor.
- auxiliary brake system enables the vehicle driver to gradually reduce the vehicle speed or the vehicle speed change in the event of a fault in the service brake system or to bring the vehicle to a standstill.
- the parking brake system ensures that the vehicle can be kept at a standstill by mechanical means on an inclined roadway and in particular in the absence of the driver.
- An electromechanical brake system is known for example from WO-A 94/24453.
- a wheel brake is described there, in which the application force is generated by an electric motor.
- Particular attention is to be paid to the reliable functioning of the brake system in the case of such wheel brakes operated by an electric motor, as well as in general in the case of the other electrically controlled wheel brakes.
- the focus is on the reliability of the voltage supply provided by the batteries.
- the operational safety of the brake system must also be ensured if an insufficient braking effect can no longer be applied with insufficient stored electrical energy.
- Brake system two energy storage devices are provided, it being possible to switch over to the other storage device depending on the state of charge of one energy storage device. If the state of charge is too low, the driver of the vehicle can be notified optically and / or acoustically.
- An electrical power supply in a motor vehicle is known from DE, C1,39 36 638, in which the consumers are switched off depending on the state of charge of the vehicle battery. are switched, which are not absolutely necessary for the safe operation of the vehicle.
- a brake system with electrically actuated wheel brakes which comprises a parking brake that can be actuated by the driver.
- a test sequence for checking the functionality of the brake system is initiated, in the course of which at least one wheel brake is subjected to a control variable that corresponds to a predetermined minimum braking effect.
- the parking brake is not released if the specified minimum braking effect is not achieved on at least one wheel.
- the state of charge of the battery or batteries is not measured.
- the object of the present invention is to prevent situations critical to driving safety in electrically controllable brake systems.
- the invention relates to the control of units in
- Drive train of a motor vehicle are arranged. Furthermore, the vehicle has electrically actuated wheel brakes, preferably designed with one or two motors.
- Control means are provided which control or regulate the functions of at least one of the units which are arranged in the drive train and / or the function of the wheel brakes and which influence the potential of at least one of these units in response to a supplied signal.
- At least one electrical energy storage means is operational for the energy supply with the electrically actuable wheel brakes. connected.
- the diagnostic means then generate the signal in such a way that the potential of at least one of the units arranged in the drive train is adapted to the detected potential of at least one of the energy storage means and / or the function of the wheel brakes. sen is influenced to apply a predetermined braking effect.
- the invention has the advantage that, in the event of inadequate provision of energy by the energy storage means, situations critical to driving safety are avoided by an intervention in the drive train and / or in the wheel brakes.
- the potential of the energy storage means can be represented by the energy state of charge of the energy storage means.
- the diagnostic means detect at least two different energy states of the energy storage means and the generated signal represents the different energy states. This configuration enables the measures to increase driving safety to be adapted very precisely to the available energy.
- the potential of one of the units arranged in the drive train or the potential of the entire drive train can be represented by the drive power and / or by the drive torque of the vehicle, in particular by the maximum possible drive power and / or by the maximum possible drive torque of the vehicle.
- the current or the maximum possible drive power or the current or the maximum possible drive torque of the vehicle adapted to the energy available for braking.
- At least one vehicle engine in particular an internal combustion engine, a clutch, a transmission, a retarder and / or an exhaust gas valve, can be provided in the drive train of the vehicle. By driving these units appropriately, the drive torque or the drive power can be adapted to the energy available for braking.
- the potential of at least one unit arranged in the drive train is adapted to the detected potential of at least one of the energy storage means in such a way that at least one of the units arranged in the drive train is influenced in order to support the braking effect of the vehicle in such a way that this a braking effect on the vehicle is achieved.
- the driver's deceleration request can be supported by means of the signal according to the invention, in that the drive torque or the drive power is reduced to negative values in accordance with the potential of the energy storage means. Such negative drive values then act as drag torques on the driven vehicle wheels.
- the Function of at least one of the units arranged in the drive train, in particular the vehicle engine is influenced such that starting the vehicle, in particular starting the vehicle engine, is prevented. It is preferably provided here that the start of the vehicle engine is prevented by blocking the corresponding position of a travel switch.
- the vehicle engine when the signal represents a potential of at least one of the energy storage means, which is not sufficient to start the vehicle engine arranged in the drive train, the vehicle engine is prevented from starting.
- the start of the vehicle engine can be prevented by blocking the corresponding position of a travel switch.
- This configuration has the background that the energy storage means are generally used both for supplying energy to the electric brakes and for starting the vehicle engine.
- the high-current capability that is to say the ability of the energy storage means to provide a high current at the start of the vehicle engine, generally decreases with the potential, the state of charge. If the potential of the energy storage means for starting the vehicle engine is too low, then according to this embodiment a start attempt of the vehicle engine is prevented and thus unnecessary energy consumption is prevented. In this case (low state of charge), the energy still available can be used to maintain other important functions.
- the electrically actuated wheel brakes have different operating functions such as, for example, service brake function, auxiliary brake function or parking brake function. Depending on the available energy, i.e. depending on the generated signal, these operating functions are released. In this embodiment, only the brake functions that can be safely operated with the instantaneous available energy are released. This ensures sufficient availability of the braking functions.
- control means mentioned are designed in such a way that the drive train is influenced in response to the signal in such a way that the vehicle speed is set in a predetermined manner.
- the vehicle speed is adjusted in the sense of a limitation towards higher vehicle speeds.
- the vehicle speed can be set such that the maximum vehicle speed is gradually reduced.
- the setting can be made depending on the potential of the energy storage means represented by the signal. The limitation and / or the reduction can be selected depending on the potential represented by the signal.
- vehicle decelerations which can be predetermined as braking functions (for example 5.8 m / s 2 , 2.9 m / s 2 , 1.5 m / s 2 ) can be adopted automatically, depending on the energy storage content. Furthermore, the driver of the vehicle is informed by an appropriate display device whether such a braking function is currently effective. In particular, a step-by-step relapse strategy is provided in the event of a brake failure. A "last" measure in the context of such a relapse strategy would then be the automatic locking of the Parking brake function when the vehicle speed is substantially zero. There is therefore an active assignment of the possible vehicle decelerations to the memory content of the energy stores.
- the electrically actuable wheel brakes can be designed as an electromechanical, hydraulic or pneumatic brake.
- the invention also relates to a method for controlling units, which are arranged in the drive train of a motor vehicle, with electrically actuable wheel brakes and at least one energy storage means, which is used to supply energy with the electrically actuated, preferably single or twin motor, wheel brakes (160-163, 170 -173) is operational.
- the potential of at least one unit arranged in the drive train is influenced in response to a supplied signal.
- the potential of at least one of the energy storage means is also detected.
- the signal is generated in such a way that the potential of at least one unit arranged in the drive train is adapted to the detected potential of at least one of the energy storage means in a safety-oriented manner.

- the energy diagnosis unit 110 transmits the status signals 111 and 112 to the electronic control unit 120 of the brake, which represent the respective state of charge of the energy stores 100 and 101.
- the status signals 111 and 112 assume four states in each case in the range of 0-100% of the maximum charge capacity of the energy stores (0,1,2,3 for E1 and 0, A, B, C for E2) a, for example 0-10%, 10-40%, 40-60%, 60-100%).
- the brake control unit 120 processes and links these status messages 111 and 112 in the sense of an energy balance and releases the braking function that can be achieved for the vehicle (for example service brake, auxiliary brake or parking brake) on the basis of the determined possible energy provision.
- the driver is informed optically and / or acoustically by the driver display unit 135 about the availability of the braking functions or about the state of charge of the batteries. If the control device determines by evaluating the status signals 111 and 112 that the energy supply is not sufficient to ensure braking functions, a corresponding signal S is sent to the control means or to the interface 140.
- the signal S can influence vehicle functions, in particular the drive train.
- the vehicle engine When starting the journey and insufficient energy is provided to ensure braking functions, for example, the vehicle engine is not started up. This can be done by blocking a corresponding position of the travel switch 145. For example, the "start engine” stage of the driver-operated driving switch (ignition starter switch) can be blocked. In this way, safety-critical driving situations are counteracted by the driver putting the vehicle into operation despite the inadequate braking effect.
- the energy storage means are generally used both to supply energy to the electric brakes and to start the vehicle engine.
- the high-current capability that is to say the ability of the energy storage means to provide a high current at the start of the vehicle engine, generally decreases with the state of charge of the battery. If the state of charge is too low for the vehicle engine to start, an attempt to start the vehicle engine can be prevented, thus preventing unnecessary energy consumption. In this case (low state of charge), the energy still available can be used to maintain other important functions.
- the braking function can be limited via the means 140 by the block 150 to the current and / or the maximum available drive torque of the vehicle or the current and / or the maximum available drive power of the vehicle. This can be done directly by an appropriate intervention in the engine control. Alternatively or additionally, the clutch control and / or the transmission control of the vehicle can also be modified in the sense of such a limitation.
- the functions of the drive train can also be influenced by a gradual release of the drive torque or the drive power of the vehicle engine in accordance with the energy content of the batteries.
- a deceleration request (brake actuation) of the driver can be supported by the signal S in that the drive train generates a negative or reduced drive torque.
- a drag or braking torque is thus induced on the driven vehicle wheels.
- This can be achieved in a known manner by the vehicle engine and / or by the transmission (lower gear) and / or by the actuation of a retarder and / or by the actuation of a flap in the exhaust system of the vehicle engine (exhaust flap).
- the vehicle's maximum speed can be limited by means of the block 150 when the braking function is restricted by means of an insufficient supply of energy.
- the control or regulation of the vehicle engine is modified or influenced accordingly.
- the maximum speed of the vehicle can be gradually reduced when signal S is present.
- the signal S quantitative information about the contains the energy balance of the two energy stores 100 and 101 determined in the control unit 120.
- the maximum permissible vehicle speed is set lower with a lower available amount of energy than with a higher available amount of energy.
- control means or interface 140 switches off or operates energy consumers 190 whose function contributes less to driving safety than the brake.
- the braking function can be maintained at least largely, in particular if the energy balance is insufficient while the vehicle is traveling.
- FIG. 1 activates this braking function within the control unit by means of the signal S.
- the driver of the vehicle can be informed by the display device 135 whether such a braking function is currently active.
- a step-by-step relapse strategy is provided in the event of a brake failure.
- a "last" measure in the context of such a relapse strategy would be the automatic locking of the parking brake function when the vehicle speed is essentially zero.
- control unit 120 There is therefore an active assignment of the possible vehicle decelerations to the memory content of the energy stores.
- the availability of the braking functions for the respective vehicle is recognized by the control unit 120 as a result of the invention.
- the control unit only releases the brake functions if there is sufficient energy supply, the driver of the vehicle being informed acoustically and / or optically of the availability.
- signal functions or means 140 can be used to modify and / or block vehicle functions in order to counteract vehicle operation that is dangerous to driving safety and traffic.
