Definitions
- the field of the invention relates to a method for diagnosing an operating anomaly of an electrically actuated parking brake, in particular for the detection of an open circuit of the power supply of the actuation motor.

- the invention makes it possible to detect open circuit situations of the actuating motor of a vehicle parking brake.
- the invention strengthens existing diagnostics thanks to immediate detection based on current monitoring and monitoring of the presence of a bias voltage immediately after the outage. Detection can act in tens of milliseconds instead of usually a second or more. This makes it possible to put the engine in a fault state and warn the driver immediately before releasing the brake pedal. This improves the safety of the vehicle.
- FIG.2 represents an embodiment of the algorithm of the diagnostic method according to the invention.
- Figure 1 represents a motor vehicle powertrain comprising a traction motor 1 designed to transmit a driving torque to the drive wheels 11.
- the traction motor 1 can be an internal combustion engine or an electric traction machine.
- the powertrain can be thermal, hybrid or fully electric.
- a motor shaft 2 of the traction motor 1 is capable of rotating a transmission shaft line comprising a transmission member 12 of the motor torque.
- the transmission member 12 can be an automated gearbox, a reduction gear or a differential depending on the architecture of the vehicle.
- the powertrain further comprises a parking brake 3 comprising a toothed wheel 7 linked in rotation to a shaft of the transmission line, for example a shaft of the transmission member 12.
- the toothed wheel 7 can be linked to a reduction gear, a gearbox or a differential depending on the architecture of the vehicle.
- the parking brake 3 further comprises a locking finger 4, an electric actuation motor 6 and a motor control unit 5.
- the locking finger 4 is linked for example to the casing of the transmission member 12.
- the motor 5 of the parking brake is electrically powered by a low voltage on-board network.
- the actuation motor is powered by 12 volts in this example, or a lower voltage.
- the control unit 5 comprises means for acquiring data and requests, sensors for measuring the supply current Ip and the supply voltage Vp at the terminals of the actuation motor 6 and means of communication in cooperation with other computers 8, 10, 12 and 13 of the vehicle, in particular.
- the control unit 5 is electrically powered as soon as that the driver places his foot on the brake pedal, while the vehicle is operating, preferably at a speed less than 5 km/h, before starting the vehicle, or that a braking force is exerted on the wheels.
- the actuation motor 6 can engage the locking finger 4 to move it in the toothed wheel 7 in the blocked position or disengage the locking finger 4 to move it to the released position.
- the locking finger 4 blocks the toothed wheel 7 the entire transmission shaft line is stopped from rotating and the vehicle is therefore immobilized.
- the engagement and disengagement of the parking brake can be controlled by a position of the gear lever (“Park” position) or a button or even by an automated function of the vehicle.
- a signal and a specific command are provided to transmit the actuation request to the control unit 5 of the parking brake.
- the powertrain is hybrid or electric and comprises control means comprising a control unit 8 of the traction motor 1, a supervisor 10 of the vehicle, a control unit 12 of a system of traction battery and a control unit 13 of an on-board charger for the traction battery, possibly.
- the powertrain may comprise (not shown in Figure 1) a high-power traction battery system (having a voltage greater than 300 volts) and an electric charger for the traction battery connectable to an external energy source.
- the supervisor 10 is designed to record a diagnostic and anomaly log, in particular open circuit anomalies of the brake actuation motor. parking, and to signal an anomaly to the driver via a human machine interface (not shown in Figure 1), for example a dashboard screen or a light and/or audible indicator.
- a human machine interface not shown in Figure 1
- a dashboard screen for example a dashboard screen or a light and/or audible indicator.
- control units 12 and 13 of the traction battery system and the on-board charger can inhibit a recharging operation, in particular in the event of detection of an anomaly of the parking brake.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram representing an embodiment of the diagnostic method against an open circuit fault implemented by the parking brake control unit.
- the control unit 5 is provided with an integrated circuit calculator and electronic memories, the calculator and the memories being configured to execute the diagnostic process. But this is not obligatory.
- the computer could be external to the control unit 5, while being coupled to the latter 5. In the latter case, it can itself be arranged in the form of a dedicated computer including a possible dedicated program , For example. Consequently, the control unit, according to the invention, can be produced in the form of software modules (or computer (or even “software”)), or of electronic circuits (or “hardware”), or even of 'a combination of electronic circuits and software modules.
- the parking brake control unit detects a request for actuation of the parking brake.
- the parking brake control unit is electrically powered.
- the vehicle is stationary and the driver has his foot on the brake.
- the request comes, for example, from the vehicle supervisor.
- the request is a command of the motor to actuate the locking finger from a released position to a locking position, or vice versa from a locking position to a released position.
- the request can be generated by a command of the gear lever in the “Park” position or by a button command by the driver, or possibly by an automated function of the vehicle.
- the control unit measures in a second step E2 the electric current Ip and the voltage Vp across the motor terminals.
- the method comprises a third step E3 of monitoring the current Ip in relation to a current threshold S1, having a value of 10 milliamps for example. If it is detected that the current Ip is lower than the current threshold S1 for a continuous period t greater than a duration D1, the method then monitors in a fourth step E4 the measured voltage Vp at the power supply terminals of the actuation motor.
- This verification step has the advantage of checking whether we are in the presence of a motor polarization state at the moment of the power cut. This situation is abnormal.
- the duration D1 is between 20 milliseconds and 200 milliseconds maximum, or between 30 milliseconds and 100 milliseconds, or between 40 milliseconds and 70 milliseconds, preferably equal to 50 milliseconds.
- the duration D1 is judiciously chosen at a short duration value, preferably 50 milliseconds to still be able to observe the presence of a residual bias voltage at the motor terminals as soon as the power cut is detected. Indeed, in the event of a circuit break, the passive discharge causes a reduction in voltage and its observation confirms the presence of an undesirable micro-cut.
- the method triggers the signaling of a parking brake anomaly and the activation of a vehicle reconfiguration mode comprising inhibition of engine operation.
- the threshold S2 is between 4 volts and 8 volts, preferably equal to 6 volts.
- the value is chosen at an expected discharge bias voltage after the expiration of the duration D1. The observation of a polarization voltage after the duration D1 confirms the presence of an open circuit.
- step E4 if it is detected that the voltage Vp is lower than the threshold S2, this is a situation for which the control unit does not generate an anomaly signal. The process then returns to step E1.
- reporting the anomaly E5 consists of generating an anomaly code in a so-called permanent state for its recording in a diagnostic log administered by the vehicle supervisor and consultable by an after-sales technical service. .
- the parking brake control unit outputs the fault code through the communication bus.
- the parking brake control unit generates a command to turn on a warning light and/or audible message on the vehicle dashboard in order to warn the driver of a fault.
- step E5 of reconfiguring the vehicle includes inhibiting the operation of the parking brake motor until a rehabilitation of the motor is carried out. At this stage, the brake control unit is in an error state.
- step E5 includes an inhibition of a charging operation due to the fact that it is judged that the vehicle is not in a safe situation to carry out charging when connected to a charging station or an external energy source, because its parking cannot be ensured by the brake.
- the control unit of the parking brake generates this inhibition request which is then implemented by the vehicle supervisor.
- This charging inhibition is implemented in cooperation with the supervisor, the on-board charger and the traction battery system. An alert associated with this charging inhibition is possibly generated and reported to the driver.
- the method comprises a seventh step E7 of verification of the current Ip at the motor terminals in relation to a current threshold S3, in this example set at 10 milliamps.
- control unit detects that the current Ip is greater than S3 for at least one continuous period t greater than a duration D2 of 100 milliseconds, then it rehabilitates the operation of the parking brake in an eighth step E8.
- the duration D2 can be chosen at a value in the range between 80 milliseconds and 200 milliseconds.
- the fault code generated in step E5 is indicated as being in a transient state in the fault log. This makes it possible to inform a vehicle technical service of the appearance of the anomaly and that it has been resolved by itself.
- rehabilitation E8 includes a step of rehabilitation of an operation of recharging the traction battery by the on-board charger. This rehabilitation is implemented in cooperation with the vehicle supervisor, the on-board charger and the traction battery.
- the E8 rehabilitation can be controlled manually by an operator during a check or repair in technical service. It is expected that it can control the rehabilitation through a vehicle interface.
- the invention applies to vehicles comprising an electrically actuated parking brake, preferably to electric or hybrid motor vehicles, preferably rechargeable, as well as to any type of vehicle comprising an electric battery, such as an airplane, tractor, electric bike, etc).
