The existing unmanned automobile is becoming a new direction of automobile field development, for example, a ternary lithium battery driven electric vehicle, the design of the front bumper face shield position is obviously different from the traditional automobile, the traditional automobile must be provided with an air inlet grille for radiating heat of a radiator behind the air inlet grille, the power source of the electric automobile is a battery and a motor system, and the requirement for radiating heat is low, so that most of electric automobiles usually select a closed face shield in order to reduce the air resistance coefficient of an automobile body, for example, a tesla model 3 car, the front face shield of the automobile body is closed, an auxiliary air inlet with a small size is reserved below the face shield, other parts are not arranged behind the face shield at the front part of the electric automobile except the bumper, and the position near the bumper is relatively open.

On the other hand, for the current automobile rear-end collision accident investigation, and the related accident identification data is consulted, the common modes of the rear-end collision accident include a brake lag type, a starting error type and a driving line change type, wherein when the rear-end collision occurs in the brake lag type and the brake lag type, the speed of the rear-end collision automobile is higher in part, and according to the investigation on the rear-end collision accident in the book 'practical automobile accident identification study' in the Lin ocean (Japan), the rear-end collision automobile usually adopts emergency braking before the rear-end collision, so that the front bumper of the rear-end collision automobile is always lowered in height to be drilled under the rear bumper of the collided automobile, and the front part of the automobile body of the rear-end collision automobile is directly arranged at the rear part of the rear bumper of the collided automobile, so that the rear-end collision automobile is more easily damaged obviously; that is, even if the front and rear vehicles have the same bumper height, the rear-end vehicle often experiences a slight or significant underride phenomenon as the front bumper height of the rear-end vehicle is reduced after the rear-end vehicle assumes braking, which increases with the difference in height between the two bumpers and the difference in speed between the two vehicles.

Detailed Description

As shown in fig. 1-7, the method for actively protecting the front bumper when a safe electric car knocks into the rear includes the following steps in sequence: a driving monitoring step and a judging step; an execution step;

the first embodiment is as follows:

when the unmanned level of the electric car is lower than the level L2, the electric car is generally not equipped with an environment recognition module, or the environment recognition module is a simple ultrasonic radar or an infrared radar, in this case, the electric car cannot recognize specific information of the environment in front of the vehicle, whether an obstacle exists in front and the distance of the obstacle can be measured, but whether the obstacle is the vehicle or a pedestrian cannot be recognized, in order to adapt to the type of electric car, the protection method comprises the following steps:

the running monitoring step comprises the following steps: the control unit receives a vehicle running speed signal V and a vehicle braking acceleration signal a, and then enters a judging step:

the judging step is as follows:

a. when the vehicle running speed V is higher than a certain speed V0, entering the step b;

b. when the braking acceleration signal a is larger than a certain value a0, the process proceeds to step c:

the execution steps are as follows:

c. the control unit sends a signal to the execution unit, and the execution unit raises the front bumper by delta H to ensure that the distance H between the front bumper and the ground is consistent with the height H0 of the front bumper when the automobile stops or runs at a constant speed;

when the vehicle speed is low, the vehicle is usually driven in urban roads, the collision accident in front of the vehicle is pedestrians and other vehicles, when the collision accident is with pedestrians, the bumper is not suitable to be lifted in view of safety, when the collision accident is with other vehicles, because the vehicle speed is low and the vehicle deformation is not too large, the embodiment one is more suitable for occasions with high vehicle speed, such as an expressway or a closed road, the speed limit value of the road referring to the main road of China is generally 50-60km/h under the condition that the vehicle has a certain speed, the collision test speed considering the body strength of the passenger vehicle is generally 50/h when the passenger vehicle collides, the lower limit value of the V0 is suitably set to 50km/h, of course, the V0 can be adjusted to 60km/h or 70km/h or 80km/h under the condition that the vehicle is usually used for long-distance driving or expressway, when the vehicle speed is higher, after a driver steps on a brake pedal before the vehicle collides with the front vehicle, the value of the brake deceleration which can be generated by the vehicle can refer to the corresponding standard or the experimental result, in the method, the minimum brake acceleration which is required to be generated by emergency braking of the car under the condition of 50km/h in GB7258-2017 is taken as reference, and a0 is set to be 5.0-6.2m/s²。

In order to obtain the height Δ H to be compensated by the bumper during vehicle braking, the calculation can be performed according to the calculation model shown in fig. 7, the height Δ H1 of the front end of the vehicle falling during braking is calculated according to (1-1), and Δ H is taken as Δ H1, or the values of Δ H1 and the height Δ H2 of the rear end of the vehicle falling during braking are not equal to each other because the rigidity k1 and k2 of the front suspension and the rear suspension of the vehicle are different to each other and the distance between the center of gravity of the vehicle and the front wheel and the rear wheel are different to each other, so that the larger value of the two values is taken as Δ H for simplifying calculation in order to ensure that the height of the bumper rising is enough;

ΔH＝Max(ΔH₁，ΔH₂)

Δ H1 and Δ H2 calculated in the formulae (1-1), (1-2) are derived from the following formulae:

tanα＝Δ₁/l₁ (1-3)

tanα＝Δ₂/l₂ (1-4)

ΔH₁＝tanα·L₁ (1-5)

ΔH₂＝tanα·L₂ (1-6)

in the above formula, k₁Is the rigidity coefficient, k, of the front suspension of the electric car₂The rigidity coefficient of the rear suspension of the electric car; l is₀For the wheelbase of an electric car, |₁Is the distance from the center of mass to the front axle of the electric car₂The distance from the center of mass to the rear axle of the electric car, L is the total length of the car, L₁Is the distance L between the center of mass and the front end of the electric car₂The distance between the center of mass and the rear end of the electric car, m is the mass of the electric car, a is the acceleration value generated by the braking of the car, g is the gravity acceleration, and 9.8m/s is taken²H is the height of the center of mass of the electric car from the ground, and alpha is the front depression angle of the electric car during braking; delta 1 is the vertical compression of the front suspension, and delta 2 is the vertical extension of the rear suspension;

the transfer amount of vertical force on the front wheel and the rear wheel caused by inertia force during vehicle braking is as follows:

therefore, the front suspension compression amount and the rear suspension compression amount can be simply calculated according to Hooke's law:

then the formula (1-1) and the formula (1-2) can be pushed out by combining the formula (1-3) to the formula (1-6);

d. the control unit continuously receives the value a, and when the value a is less than a0 after the driver controls the braking process of the vehicle to be completed, namely the vehicle is decelerated to a safe speed or is stopped, the control unit controls the execution unit to lower the front bumper by delta H and restore the initial position.

When the electric car is braked emergently at a certain speed, the front bumper rises to a certain height, the height reduction of the front bumper of the car during emergency braking is compensated, the front bumper of the car is positioned at the correct height when the car and the front car collide with each other, the energy absorption function of the bumper is exerted, and the safety of the car in the rear-end accident is greatly improved.

Example two:

if the road is an urban road when the vehicle collides with the front, the collision situations are vehicle-vehicle collision and vehicle-human collision respectively, in the vehicle-human collision situation, for the safety of pedestrians, the collision point should be as low as possible, so that the injury to the pedestrians can be effectively reduced, and in the vehicle-vehicle rear-end collision situation, the height of the bumper should be kept, so that a better implementation mode is as follows: in the monitoring step, the control unit of the electric car also receives image information T in front of the vehicle, and simultaneously judges that an object in front of the vehicle is a vehicle or a pedestrian according to the image information T in front of the vehicle;

in the above-described determination step b, when the front image information T indicates that the front object is a vehicle and the braking acceleration signal a is greater than the predetermined value a0, the process proceeds to step c.

After the image information T is used for judging that the front barrier is a pedestrian or a vehicle, when the front image information T displays that the front object is the pedestrian, the front bumper is not subjected to height compensation operation, so that the safety of the pedestrian is effectively protected, and the scheme can be better suitable for urban roads.

According to the method for identifying the object in the image as a vehicle or a pedestrian according to the image information T, the existing technology can be used, for example, the environment identification module of the unmanned electric car with the automatic driving level of L3 and L3 can identify the surrounding environment, for example, an automatic pilot automatic driving system carried by Tesla model 3, and the system comprises a complete hardware device sensor, an image processing module, a central processing unit and control algorithm software which are required by the unmanned driving process; for example, the unmanned system used in ES8 electric SUV of my mai company can also photograph, process and identify the image information of the environment in front of the vehicle, so as to distinguish whether the obstacle in front of the vehicle is a pedestrian or a vehicle, for example, the open source unmanned system already disclosed by Baidu company, the environment identification of the vehicle can be directly realized by using the system without special technology, the technical personnel in the field of unmanned driving of the vehicle can directly realize the system, the core innovation point of the technical scheme of the application is not directed to the environment identification of the vehicle, so the collection and judgment of the image information T can use the existing technical scheme, and can also be directly realized according to the existing unmanned environment perception technology.

Example three:

in order to reduce the rising times of the front bumper and avoid excessively frequent rising and falling, a better implementation mode is as follows: in the monitoring step, the control unit of the electric car also receives the distance L between the vehicle and the front vehicle; the distance L can be acquired by an environment identification module or a radar or an infrared distance sensor;

in the step b, when the braking acceleration signal a is greater than a certain value a0, the current minimum braking distance Lmin of the vehicle calculated according to the following formula is greater than L, and the step C is carried out;

in the above formula, mu is the friction coefficient between the tire and the ground, and mu is 0.5-0.8 during calculation.

The value taking method of the mu comprises the following steps: the control unit of the electric car also receives a front wheel slip rate parameter s, and the slip rate s is calculated according to the following formula:

s＝V-Rβ/V (1-10)

β＝n·2·π/60 (1-11)

in the above formula, R is the effective radius of the tire, beta is the rotation angular velocity of the tire, and n is the rotation speed of the tire;

when s is less than or equal to 0.15, mu is 0.5;

when s is more than 0.15 and less than or equal to 0.3, mu is 0.8;

when s is more than 0.3, mu is 0.6-0.7;

the braking distance of the vehicle in the current braking deceleration state can be accurately calculated according to the formulas 1-9 to 1-11, so that whether the vehicle collides with the front vehicle in the rear-end collision mode or not is judged in advance, and only when Lmin is larger than L, namely the vehicle still collides with the front vehicle in the rear-end collision mode after braking, the step c is carried out, and the front bumper is lifted.

In practical use, the protection method of the second embodiment and the protection method of the third embodiment may be combined, Lmin is calculated while the object in front of the vehicle is determined to be a pedestrian or a vehicle, and when the object in front is a vehicle and Lmin > L, the step c is performed.

The protection method in the first embodiment, the second embodiment and the third embodiment can be independently applied to the car, and can also be designed into a plurality of selection modes by using programming software, and the selection modes are adaptively selected by a driver or an unmanned system according to the environment where the vehicle is located.
