Technical Field

The present invention relates to a hybrid drive train for a hybrid vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a method for operating such a hybrid drive train according to claim 6.

Background

In addition to an internal combustion engine, such hybrid drive trains also have an automatically shiftable transmission which can be brought into driving connection with the internal combustion engine via an internal combustion engine shaft and with the electric machine via a motor shaft. The automatic transmission may be designed such that the electric machine can be operated as a starter/generator to effect a power-interrupted gear change, electric-only driving operation or hybrid operation of the transmission; that is, the motor can be used as a separate power source or an auxiliary power source or as a starter or a generator for generating electric current and recovering electric power. For example, a hybrid drive train of this type is known from DE 102005040769 a 1.

In this type of hybrid powertrain, the internal combustion engine is transmitted to the vehicle wheels via a load path. A dual-mass flywheel is connected in the load path, which has a flywheel mass elastically coupled via a spring set. An electric machine of the hybrid powertrain is drivingly engaged into the load path through the automatic transmission. In an automatic transmission, the drive torque on the internal combustion engine and the drive torque on the electric machine can be superimposed to form a total drive torque which can drive the wheels of the vehicle, with power superimposition.

The hybrid powertrain also has an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit controls an engine controller of the internal combustion engine, a transmission controller of the automatic transmission and/or the power electronics/power semiconductors of the electric machine as prescribed during driving operation on the basis of driving operation parameters and/or the driver's desire.

In a hybrid drive train, the electric machine can be operated as a starter during the starting process, whereby a starting torque is transmitted to the internal combustion engine. In this case, the internal combustion engine is accelerated from a standstill by the electric machine to the target rotational speed with a very high rotational speed gradient. However, this can lead to the ZMS (dual mass flywheel) becoming stuck in the dual mass flywheel of the hybrid drive train, which increases rotational irregularities when the spring set of the dual mass flywheel becomes stuck in a compressed state.

Such ZMS jams can be identified using a ZMS analysis unit. When such a ZMS jam exists, the ZMS analysis unit generates an engine intervention signal, whereupon the engine controller commands the internal combustion engine with a torque shock to loosen the ZMS jam.

A brief increase in torque or a decrease in torque associated with a torque shock leads to vehicle acceleration during driving operation. Such acceleration may be uncomfortable for the driver as it is not generated according to the driver's wishes.

A method for operating a drive train is known from DE 102009043243 a 1. Another power unit for a motor vehicle is known from DE 102015221670 a 1.

Disclosure of Invention

The object of the present invention is to provide a hybrid drive train for a hybrid-driven motor vehicle, in which the driving operation can be carried out more comfortably than in the prior art.

This object is achieved by the features of claim 1 or 6. Preferred developments of the invention are disclosed in the dependent claims.

The characterization part of claim 1 wherein the ZMS analysis unit is configured with a compensation unit that can be used to identify a stuck ZMS. The compensation unit generates a compensation signal based on the moment impact that loosens the ZMS jam, with which the electric machine can be controlled with a compensation torque that compensates for the moment impact.

The central idea of the invention is to apply a counteracting compensating torque to the drive train by means of the electric machine at the same time as the torque is increased or decreased for a short time in order to release the jammed dual-mass flywheel. The jamming of the dual mass flywheel is released here, without the vehicle gaining additional acceleration. In this case, the compensation torque at the electric machine therefore acts against the torque shock at the internal combustion engine in such a way that it does not influence the total output torque at the vehicle wheels, so that the torque shock at the internal combustion engine is carried out in a power-balanced manner.

In a first embodiment variant, the torque impulse introduced by the evaluation unit can be a sudden, brief increase in torque, while the counteracting compensating torque on the part of the electric machine is a sudden, brief decrease in torque.

Instead, the torque shock introduced by the evaluation unit is a sudden, brief reduction in torque, while the counteracting compensating torque on the motor is a sudden, brief increase in torque.

Embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the drawings.

The figures show:

fig. 2 shows in a further block diagram the interconnected program elements of an electronic control unit for implementing the invention.

Detailed Description

The hybrid powertrain shown in fig. 1 includes an internal combustion engine 1, an automatic transmission 3, and an electric machine 5. The internal combustion engine 1 is connected via an engine shaft 7 to an engine-side flywheel mass 9 of a dual-mass flywheel 11. The flywheel mass 13 of the dual mass flywheel on the transmission side is connected to the transmission input shaft 15 of the automatic transmission 3. Viewed in the circumferential direction, a spring set, not shown, acts between the flywheel masses 9, 13. The automatic transmission 3 has on the output side a spur gear stage St1, which is shown in driving connection with an axle differential 15 of an axle of a motor vehicle, so that a load path is formed via which the drive torque M on the internal combustion engine is transmitted_BKMCan be output to the axle. Furthermore, the electric machine 5 is in driving connection with the automatic transmission 3 via the motor shaft 17 and via the second spur gear stage St 2.

In the automatic transmission 3, a driving torque M generated by the motor 5 is set according to the set running mode_EMAnd a drive torque M generated by the internal combustion engine 1_BKMIn the case of power superposition, the total drive torque Mges can be superimposed, with which the axle can be driven. During the starting process, the electric machine acts as a starter, with which a starting torque is transmitted to the internal combustion engine 1. In this case, the electric motor 5 accelerates the internal combustion engine 1 from a stopped state to a target rotational speed with a very high rotational speed gradient. This may cause the ZMS of the dual mass flywheel 11 located in the hybrid powertrain to jam.

The hybrid drive train illustrated in fig. 1 also has an electronic controller 19 which, on the basis of the driving operating parameters and the driver's desire, controls an engine controller 21 of the internal combustion engine 1 and the power electronics 23 of the electric machine 5 with a target torque setting or a transmission controller 25 of the automatic transmission 3 with a shift signal for gear adjustment. Fig. 1 and 2 are drawn for the convenience of understanding the present invention. Both figures are therefore only a rough simplified illustration and do not represent the actual construction of the hybrid drive train nor the actual software architecture of the control unit 19 and the controllers 21, 23, 25.

The program elements that are important for the invention and that can be used for implementing the invention are shown in fig. 2. Accordingly, the electronic control unit 19 has a ZMS analysis unit 27 that detects the presence or absence of a ZMS jam. Such ZMS seizure can result in increased rotational non-uniformity, which is detrimental in terms of operational smoothness of the hybrid powertrain. On the input side, the ZMS evaluation unit 27 is connected to a rotational speed sensor 29, which detects the actual rotational speed n in the hybrid drive train_ist. The computing unit 31 connected downstream in terms of signaling from the actual rotational speed n_istCalculating the running instability signal S_LThe runout signal is supplied to the signal input of the ZMS analysis unit 27.

Further, a signal λ generated by a λ adjusting device (oxygen adjusting device/air-fuel ratio adjusting device) is also applied to the signal input terminal of the ZMS analyzing unit 27. The ZMS analysis unit 27 compares the Lambda signal (oxygen signal/air-fuel ratio signal) Lambda with the running instability signal S_LThe analysis was performed by comparison: based on whether a ZMS jam exists for these two parameters under the current operating conditions.

If there is such a ZMS seizure that leads to an increase in rotational non-uniformity, the ZMS analysis unit 27 generates an engine intervention signal S_MThe engine control unit 21 controls the internal combustion engine 1 with a torque impulse in such a way that the ZMS jam is released.

As can also be seen from fig. 2, the ZMS evaluation unit 27 is connected to the compensation unit 35 at its signal output. Based on the torque intervention signal S in the compensation unit 35_MGenerating a compensation signal, according to which the power electronics 23 compensate the moment M_AAn electric motor 5 is controlled, and the compensating moment compensates the momentStriking or reacting to the moment impact.

In this case, a supplementary torque M on the motor side_AThe torque shock acting on the internal combustion engine is counteracted in such a way that it does not affect the total output torque delivered to the vehicle wheels, so that it is carried out in a power-balanced manner, so that no uncomfortable vehicle acceleration is caused by the torque shock to the driver.

The ZMS evaluation unit 27 mentioned above for identifying ZMS jams can be integrated into an engine misfire identification function, as described in DE 102015221670 a 1. Reference is therefore made in particular to this publication.
