Description

車両用駆動装置の制御装置
 本発明は、例えばハイブリッド車両や電気車両等に搭載される回転電機及び変速機構を備える車両用駆動装置の制御装置に係り、詳しくは、変速機構を走行レンジから非走行レンジに切り換えた場合に回転電機の回転速度を制御する車両用駆動装置の制御装置に関する。
 近年、内燃エンジンとモータ・ジェネレータ(以下、単に「モータ」という)とを動力源として組合せたハイブリッド車両の開発が進められている。このようなハイブリッド車両に用いられるハイブリッド駆動装置の一形態として、一般的な自動変速機の発進装置(例えばトルクコンバータ等)の部分に、変速機構の入力軸に駆動連結されたモータと、内燃エンジンに駆動連結されるエンジン連結軸と該入力軸とを係脱(係合又は解放)するエンジン接続用クラッチと、を配置して、簡易な置換でパラレル式のハイブリッド車用駆動装置を構成するものが提案されている(特許文献1参照)。
 このハイブリッド車用駆動装置では、変速機構として、例えば、複数のクラッチやブレーキ等の係合要素の係脱により変速段が切り換えられて前進6速段及び後進段を形成し得る有段変速機が適用されている(特許文献1の図2参照)。この変速機構では、C-1クラッチとワンウェイクラッチのみが係合状態になることで、前進1速段が形成されるようになっている。このハイブリッド車用駆動装置では、走行中に変速機構がDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられるとC-1クラッチ及びワンウェイクラッチが解放され、更に、例えばバッテリの残容量(SOC)が所定値以上であればエンジン接続用クラッチが解放されて、内燃エンジンとモータと変速機構との連結が切り離される。
 この状態で、変速機構がNレンジから再度Dレンジに切り換えられる際のC-1クラッチ係合の応答性を向上する必要がある。
特開2013-155790号公報
 しかしながら、特許文献1のハイブリッド車用駆動装置では、変速機構がNレンジからDレンジに切り換えられた際にクラッチ等の係合要素を係合する応答性向上については、何ら考慮されていなかった。
 そこで、変速機構が非走行レンジから走行レンジに切り替えられた場合に、変速機構の係合要素を係合する応答性を向上させることができる車両用駆動装置の制御装置を提供することを目的とする。
 本車両用駆動装置(1)の制御装置(6)は(例えば図1乃至図5参照)、回転電機(5)と、前記回転電機(5)及び車輪(10)の間の伝達経路上に配置されると共に、複数の係合要素(C-1,C-2,C-3,B-1,B-2,F-1)を有し、前記複数の係合要素(C-1,C-2,C-3,B-1,B-2,F-1)の係合状態に基づき前記伝達経路を変更して複数の変速段を形成し、走行レンジ状態と非走行レンジ状態とに切り換え可能な変速機構(3)と、前記変速機構(3)の出力回転速度を検出可能な検出装置(7)と、を備える車両用駆動装置(1)を制御するための車両用駆動装置(1)の制御装置(6)であって、
 前記出力回転速度に基づいて前記変速機構(3)の目標変速段を算出する目標変速段算出部(61)と、
 前記出力回転速度と目標変速段のギヤ比とに基づいて、前記目標変速段で前記出力回転速度に同期する前記変速機構(3)の入力軸(30)の同期回転速度(N)を演算する同期速度演算部(62)と、
 前記変速機構(3)が前記走行レンジ状態から前記非走行レンジ状態に切り換えられた場合に、前記回転電機(5)の目標回転速度(N)を、前記同期回転速度(N)以下、かつ前記同期回転速度(N)より所定回転速度(N)低い回転速度以上になるよう演算する目標速度演算部(63)と、
 前記回転電機(5)の回転速度(N)を前記目標回転速度(N)に制御する速度制御部(64)と、を備えることを特徴とする。
 本車両用駆動装置の制御装置によると、変速機構が走行レンジ(例えばDレンジ)状態から非走行レンジ(例えばNレンジ)状態に切り換えられた場合に、回転電機の目標回転速度を変速機構の同期回転速度以下、かつその近くに制御しているので、次に走行レンジ状態に切り換えられた際に変速機構内の係合要素を係合する応答性を高くすることができる。

 入力部4は、出力軸20と変速機構3の入力軸30との間の動力伝達を断接するエンジン接続用のクラッチK0と、該クラッチK0と入力軸30との間に駆動連結されるモータ5と、を備えている。クラッチK0は、出力軸20と一体回転する複数の内摩擦板と、モータ5のロータ及び変速機構3の入力軸30と一体回転するクラッチドラムに連結される複数の外摩擦板とを備えた多板クラッチによって構成されている。モータ5は、クラッチドラムに連結されたロータと、該ロータの径方向外側に対向配置されたステータとを有して構成されている。従って、変速機構3の入力軸30の回転速度と、モータ5の回転速度Nとは一致する。
 変速機構3は、例えば複数の係合要素(多板クラッチ、ブレーキ、ワンウェイクラッチ)の係合状態に基づき伝達経路を変更して前進6速段及び後進段を達成し得る変速機構から構成されている。変速機構3の出力軸31は、ディファレンシャル装置Dを介して車輪10に接続されている。また、出力軸31には、出力回転速度を検出する回転速度センサ(検出装置)7が設けられている。変速機構3の詳細な構成については、後述する。
 以上のように、車両用駆動装置1は、内燃エンジン2側から車輪10側に向かって、クラッチK0とモータ5とからなる入力部4及び変速機構3が順次配置されており、内燃エンジン2及びモータ5の両方を駆動させて車両100を走行させるハイブリッド走行の場合には、制御装置6によって油圧制御装置(不図示)を制御してクラッチK0を係合させる一方、車輪10側に駆動連結されたモータ5の駆動力だけで走行するEV走行の場合には、クラッチK0を解放して、内燃エンジン2と車輪10とを切り離すようになっている。
 制御装置6は、例えばコンピュータ(ECU)により構成され、変速機構3の回転速度センサ7からの信号である出力回転速度とアクセルペダル8からのアクセル開度とに基づいて変速機構3の目標変速段を算出するようになっている。制御装置6を構成するコンピュータは、例えばCPUと、各種データを一時的に記憶するRAMと、各種演算を実行するためのプログラムを記憶するROMと、入出力インターフェース回路と、を備えている。制御装置6は、車両100の各部に接続されており、各部を制御するようになっている。
 制御装置6は、アクセルペダル8の開度を検出する不図示のアクセル開度センサに接続され、アクセル開度(オンオフも含む)を0~100%の間で検出可能になっている。本実施の形態では、制御装置6は、アクセル開度が0%である場合にアクセルペダル8がオフ状態であると判断する一方、アクセル開度が0%を超える場合にアクセルペダル8がオン状態であると判断するようになっている(図5参照)。但し、制御装置6の判断基準としては、これには限られず、アクセル開度の閾値を予め設定しておき、アクセル開度が閾値以下である場合にアクセルペダル8がオフ状態であると判断する一方、アクセル開度が閾値を超える場合にアクセルペダル8がオン状態であると判断するようにしてもよい。更に、制御装置6はシフトレバー9の位置を検出する不図示のレバースイッチに接続され、シフトレバー9のシフトレンジを検出可能になっている。シフトレバー9のシフトレンジとしては、走行レンジ(Dレンジ等)及び非走行レンジ(Nレンジ、Pレンジ)がある。
 制御装置6は、図1に示すように、目標変速段算出部61と、同期速度演算部62と、目標速度演算部63と、速度制御部64とを備えている。目標変速段算出部61は、出力回転速度に基づいて変速機構3の目標変速段を算出するようになっている。同期速度演算部62は、出力回転速度と目標変速段のギヤ比とに基づいて、目標変速段で出力回転速度に同期する変速機構3の入力軸30の同期回転速度Nを演算するようになっている。目標速度演算部63は、変速機構3がDレンジ(走行レンジ)状態からNレンジ(非走行レンジ)状態に切り換えられた場合に、モータ5の目標回転速度Nを、同期回転速度N以下、かつ同期回転速度Nより所定回転速度N低い回転速度以上になるよう演算するようになっている(図5参照)。速度制御部64は、モータ5の回転速度Nを目標回転速度Nに制御するようになっている。また、所定回転速度Nは、モータ5の性能及び回転速度センサ7の精度の少なくとも一方に基づき発生するモータ回転速度Nの振幅よりも大きな速度に設定するものとし、ここでは所定回転速度Nを、例えば50rpmとしている。
 次に、変速機構3の概略構成について図2に沿って説明する。図2に示すように、例えばFFタイプ(フロントエンジン、フロントドライブ)の車両に用いて好適な変速機構3は、駆動源としての内燃エンジン2(図1参照)に接続し得る変速機構3の入力軸30を有している。
 また、変速機構3は、複数の係合要素として、摩擦係合要素(クラッチC-1、クラッチC-2、クラッチC-3、ブレーキB-1、ブレーキB-2)及びワンウェイクラッチF-1を備え、複数の係合要素の係合状態に基づき伝達経路を変更して複数の変速段を形成し、走行レンジ状態と非走行レンジ状態とに切り換え可能になっている。また、複数の係合要素は、少なくとも1つの係合要素と共に係合することで所定変速段を形成し、かつ、同期回転速度Nよりもモータ回転速度Nが低い場合に空転するワンウェイクラッチF-1を含み、目標変速段はワンウェイクラッチF-1が係合される変速段としている。
 変速機構3は、入力軸30上において、プラネタリギヤSPと、プラネタリギヤユニットPUとが備えられている。プラネタリギヤSPは、サンギヤS1、キャリヤCR1、及びリングギヤR1を備えており、該キャリヤCR1に、サンギヤS1及びリングギヤR1に噛合するピニオンP1を有している所謂シングルピニオンプラネタリギヤである。
 また、プラネタリギヤユニットPUは、4つの回転要素としてサンギヤS2、サンギヤS3、キャリヤCR2、及びリングギヤR2を有し、該キャリヤCR2に、サンギヤS2及びリングギヤR2に噛合するロングピニオンPLと、サンギヤS3に噛合するショートピニオンPSとを互いに噛合する形で有している所謂ラビニヨ型プラネタリギヤである。
 プラネタリギヤSPのサンギヤS1は、ミッションケース32に一体的に固定されているボス部に接続されて回転が固定されている。また、リングギヤR1は、入力軸30の回転と同回転(以下「入力回転」という。)になっている。更に、キャリヤCR1は、固定されたサンギヤS1と入力回転するリングギヤR1とにより、入力回転が減速された減速回転になると共に、クラッチC-1及びクラッチC-3に接続されている。
 プラネタリギヤユニットPUのサンギヤS2は、バンドブレーキからなるブレーキB-1に接続されてミッションケースに対して固定自在となっていると共に、クラッチC-3に接続され、該クラッチC-3を介してキャリヤCR1の減速回転が入力自在となっている。また、サンギヤS3は、クラッチC-1に接続されており、キャリヤCR1の減速回転が入力自在となっている。
 更に、キャリヤCR2は、入力軸30の回転が入力されるクラッチC-2に接続され、該クラッチC-2を介して入力回転が入力自在となっており、また、ワンウェイクラッチF-1及びブレーキB-2に接続されて、ワンウェイクラッチF-1を介してミッションケース32に対して一方向の回転が規制されると共に、ブレーキB-2を介して回転が固定自在となっている。そして、リングギヤR2は、出力軸31と同義となるカウンタギヤ33に接続されており、該カウンタギヤ11は、出力軸31及びディファレンシャル装置Dを介して車輪10に接続されている。
 上記のように構成された変速機構3は、図3に示す作動表のように前進1速段~前進6速段及び後進段において、各クラッチC-1~C-3、ブレーキB-1~B-2、ワンウェイクラッチF-1が作動することにより、良好なステップ比をもって変速段のギヤ比を形成する。また、これらの複数のクラッチC-1~C-3、ブレーキB-1~B-2同士を掴み換えすることで各変速制御が実行され、各変速段において前進1速段の駆動時(例えば発進時)を除き、各クラッチC-1~C-3、ブレーキB-1~B-2のうちの2つが係合されて各変速段が達成される。
 次に、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1の動作について、図4のフローチャート及び図5のタイムチャートに沿って説明する。
 図5に示すように、シフトレンジがDレンジにあり、アクセルペダル8がオン状態であり、モータ5が回転速度Nで回転することで、車両100が走行しており、t0においてアクセルペダル8が運転者によりオフ操作されたものとする。この時点では、制御装置6によるモータ5の制御方法は、トルク制御になっている。
 図4に示すように、制御装置6は、回転速度センサ7からの出力等に基づいて、車両100が走行しているか否かを判断する(ステップS1)。制御装置6が、車両100が走行していないと判断した場合は、再度判断を実行する。尚、停車中であれば、出力軸31の回転速度は0であり、同期回転速度Nも0になってしまうので、制御装置6は同期回転速度Nに基づいてモータ回転速度Nを制御しなくてもよい。
 制御装置6が、回転速度センサ7により出力軸31の出力回転速度が0より大きいことを検出し、車両100が走行していると判断した場合は、制御装置6は、シフトレバー9の位置を検出することにより、シフトレバー9がDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられたか否かを判断する(ステップS2)。制御装置6が、DレンジからNレンジに切り換えられていないと判断した場合は、再度判断を実行する。
 そして、t1(図5参照)において、シフトレンジが運転者によりDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられると、制御装置6が、走行中にDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられたと判断し、制御装置6は、作動表(図3参照)に基づいて、変速機構3の摩擦係合要素を全て解放し、クラッチC-1をも解放する(ステップS3)。また、制御装置6は、運転者によるシフトレンジのDレンジからNレンジへの切り換えに応じて、モータ回転速度Nを適宜低下するようにする。尚、運転者によりシフトレバー9がDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられた時点(t1)からクラッチC-1が解放される時点(t2)までの間では、変速機構3は走行レンジ状態であるので、モータ回転速度Nを同期回転速度Nよりも所定回転速度N低くなるよう制御しなくてもよい。
 そして、制御装置6は、クラッチC-1の入力側と出力側との間で差回転、即ち回転速度に差があるか否かを判断する(ステップS4)。ここでは、制御装置6は、クラッチC-1の入力側の回転速度は、モータ回転速度Nとして取得する。また、制御装置6は、クラッチC-1の出力側の回転速度は、その時点で回転速度センサ7により検出された出力軸31の回転速度と、直前にDレンジにあった時の変速段のギヤ比と、から算出した同期回転速度Nとして取得する。即ち、差回転は、同期回転速度Nとモータ回転速度Nとの差となる(図5参照)。
 制御装置6が、差回転が無いと判断した場合は、クラッチC-1が完全係合していると判断し、クラッチC-1の解放動作を更に進める(ステップS3)。尚、ここでのクラッチC-1の解放とは、完全に解放するだけでなく、少なくとも差回転が生じる程度にスリップさせることも含む。t2(図5参照)において、クラッチC-1が解放されると、制御装置6が、差回転があると判断し、変速機構3は非走行レンジ状態に切り換わるので、同期速度演算部62がこの時点での同期回転速度Nを演算する(ステップS5)。尚、制御装置6では、目標変速段算出部61が、出力回転速度に基づいて変速機構3の目標変速段を常時算出している。また、同期速度演算部62は、算出された目標変速段のギヤ比と出力回転速度とに基づいて、目標変速段で出力回転速度に同期する変速機構3の入力軸30の同期回転速度Nを演算するようになっている。ここで、同期回転速度Nは、図5中では模式的に一定値であるが、実際には車速の変化に応じて変化する値であり、同期速度演算部62は同期回転速度Nを常時演算して、常に現在の同期回転速度Nを取得可能になっている。また、t2(図5参照)において、制御装置6が、クラッチC-1が解放されていると判断した場合は、制御装置6は、モータ5の制御方法を、トルク制御から、モータ回転速度Nが目標回転速度Nになるように制御する回転速度制御に切り換える。
 そして、目標速度演算部63は、目標回転速度Nを同期回転速度Nよりも所定回転速度N低くなるよう演算し、速度制御部64が、モータ回転速度Nを目標回転速度Nに制御してモータ5を回転速度制御により制御する(ステップS6)。ここで、同期回転速度N-所定回転速度Nが0未満になった場合は、モータ回転速度Nは0rpmとする。
 これにより、t3(図5参照)において、モータ回転速度Nが同期回転速度Nよりも所定回転速度N低くなる。よって、制御装置6は、モータ回転速度Nを変速機構3の同期回転速度Nの所定回転速度N=50rpmの僅差に制御しているので、シフトレバー9が再度Dレンジに切り換えられた際に、クラッチC-1の係合の応答性が高くなる。また、t3以降でクラッチC-1にオンフェールが発生したとしても、モータ回転速度Nは同期回転速度Nより低いので、モータ5の駆動力が車輪10に伝達されることはなく、意図しない出力トルクを発生させてしまうことはない。
 以上説明したように、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1の制御装置6によると、変速機構3がDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられた際に、モータ回転速度Nを変速機構3の同期回転速度Nの近くに制御しているので、同期回転速度Nから大きく離れるように制御する場合に比べて、次にDレンジに切り換えられた際にクラッチC-1の係合の応答性を高くすることができる。また、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1の制御装置6によると、モータ回転速度Nを変速機構3の同期回転速度Nの近くに制御しているので、同期回転速度Nから大きく離れるように制御する場合に比べて差回転が小さくなり、クラッチ係合にかかるクラッチC-1に発生する発熱を低減することができ、クラッチC-1の耐久性を向上させることができる。
 また、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1の制御装置6では、目標速度演算部63は、変速機構3がDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられた場合に、モータ5の目標回転速度Nを同期回転速度Nより所定回転速度N低くなるよう演算している。
 ここで、例えば、クラッチC-1が常時オン(係合状態)になるオンフェールが発生してしまった場合は、モータ5からの駆動力が変速機構3の動力伝達経路に伝達されてしまう虞がある。これに対し、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1の制御装置6によれば、変速機構3がDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられた場合に、モータ回転速度Nはその時点での同期回転速度Nより低くなっている。このため、クラッチC-1にオンフェールが発生したとしても、モータ3の駆動力は車輪10に伝達されることはなく、意図しない出力トルクを発生させてしまうことを防止できる。尚、本実施の形態では、変速機構3にワンウェイクラッチF-1が設けられており、クラッチC-1にオンフェールが発生した場合にモータ3の駆動力はワンウェイクラッチF-1により空転されて車輪10に伝達されることはないが、例えば、このようなワンウェイクラッチF-1を有しない変速機構であっても、クラッチC-1にオンフェールが発生した場合に同期回転速度Nより低速回転するモータ3の駆動力によって車輪10が加速してしまうことはないので、いずれの場合も意図しない出力トルクを発生させてしまうことを防止できる。
 また、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1の制御装置6では、目標速度演算部63は、所定回転速度Nを、モータ5の性能及び回転速度センサ7の精度の少なくとも一方に基づき発生するモータ回転速度Nの振幅よりも大きな回転速度になるよう演算している。
 ここで、例えば、モータ回転速度Nを目標回転速度Nに一致させようとしても、モータ5の性能や出力軸回転速度を検出する回転速度センサ7の精度等によっては、モータ回転速度Nに脈動し得る振幅が発生してしまい、目標回転速度Nに正確に一致できない可能性もある。クラッチC-1のオンフェール発生の際に、モータ回転速度Nが振幅によって同期回転速度Nよりも高い回転速度になってしまうと、モータ5の駆動力が車輪10に伝達されて、意図しない出力トルクを発生させてしまう可能性がある。これに対し、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1の制御装置6によれば、所定回転速度Nをモータ回転速度Nの振幅よりも大きな回転速度にするので、モータ回転速度Nの振幅が発生しても、モータ回転速度Nはその時点での同期回転速度Nより常に低くなる。このため、モータ3の駆動力は車輪10に伝達されることはなく、意図しない出力トルクを発生させてしまうことを防止できる。
 また、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1の制御装置6では、変速機構3の複数の係合要素は、クラッチC-1と共に係合することで前進1速段を形成し、かつ、同期回転速度Nよりも入力軸30の回転速度が低い場合に空転するワンウェイクラッチF-1を含み、目標変速段はワンウェイクラッチF-1が係合される変速段であるようにしている。このため、モータ回転速度Nが同期回転速度Nより低くなった場合に、ワンウェイクラッチF-1が空転するので、モータ5の駆動力が車輪10に伝達されることが抑制され、意図しない出力トルクを発生させてしまうことを防止できる。
 尚、以上説明した本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1の制御装置6においては、t2以降に同期回転速度Nより低くする所定回転速度Nを50rpmにした場合について説明したが、これには限られない。この所定回転速度Nは、モータ5の性能及び回転速度センサ7の精度の少なくとも一方に基づき発生するモータ回転速度Nの脈動し得る振幅よりも大きな速度に設定すればよく、設定する車両100や要求される条件によって異ならせることができる。
 また、本実施の形態においては、目標速度演算部63は、変速機構3が走行レンジ状態から非走行レンジ状態に切り換えられた時点(図5のt2)で、モータ5の目標回転速度Nを同期回転速度N-所定回転速度Nの回転速度になるよう演算する場合について説明したが、モータ5の目標回転速度Nを同期回転速度N-所定回転速度Nの回転速度になるよう演算するタイミングはこれには限られない。例えば、シフトレバー9がDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられた時点(図5のt1)としてもよく、あるいは、シフトレバー9がDレンジからNレンジに切り換えられた時点(図5のt1)から所定時間経過後の時点としてもよい。但し、DレンジからNレンジに切り換えられたシフトレバー9が、すぐにDレンジに切り換えられる可能性を考慮すると、シフトレバー9がNレンジに切り換えられた時点(図5のt1)、または本実施の形態のようにその直後の時点(図5のt2)とすることが好ましい。
 また、本実施の形態においては、シフトレバー9によりNレンジが選択されることにより変速機構3が非走行レンジ状態に切り換わる場合について説明したが、これには限られない。例えば、シフトレバー9によりDレンジが選択された状態でも、例えば、アクセルペダル8がオフ状態にされ車両100が惰行走行する場合に、制御装置6の制御により変速機構3のクラッチ等が解放され、Nレンジが選択されたのと同様になる状態も、変速機構3の非走行レンジ状態に含めることができる。
 また、本実施の形態においては、速度制御部64が、制御装置6を構成するコンピュータ(ECU)の一部である場合について説明したが、これには限られない。例えば、速度制御部64を、ECUとモータ5との間に介在され、モータ5を駆動するためのドライバ回路とし、制御装置6を、このドライバ回路とECUとを含めた広義の制御装置とするようにしてもよい。この場合、ECUは、目標変速段算出部61と同期速度演算部62と目標速度演算部63と、を備え、速度制御部64は、目標速度演算部63から目標回転速度Nを取得して、モータ回転速度Nを制御する。
 また、本実施の形態においては、変速機構3として前進6速段の機構を適用した場合について説明したが、これには限られず、前進8速段等に適用してもよい。また、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1においては、2つの係合要素を係合することで変速段を形成する変速機構を適用した場合について説明したが、これには限られず、3つ又は4つの係合要素を係合することで変速段を形成する変速機構に適用してもよい。また、本実施の形態の車両用駆動装置1においては、係合要素が摩擦係合要素である場合について説明したが、これには限らず、係合要素はドグクラッチ(噛合式のクラッチ)であってもよい。
 また、本実施の形態においては、車両用駆動装置1をハイブリッド車両に適用する場合について説明した。しかしながら、本発明に係る駆動装置は、これに限られず、例えば、電気車両等、回転電機を備えた車両の全般に適用することができる。
 本車両用駆動装置の制御装置は、駆動源として回転電機を備える車両に搭載される車両用駆動装置に用いることが可能であり、特に変速機構が非走行レンジ状態から走行レンジ状態に切り換えられる場合のクラッチ係合の応答性を向上することが求められるものに用いて好適である。
