Definitions
- the present invention relates to a technique for controlling an electric motor in a vehicle having the electric motor as a driving force source.
- the vehicle drive device of Patent Document 1 includes an engine that outputs power to drive wheels, a first motor that generates electric power using a part of the output of the engine, and a second motor that can input and output power to the drive wheels. It has.
- the control device for the vehicle drive device prevents the second motor from rotating at a high speed and suppresses overcharging of the power source (battery) for the motor, so that the second motor rotates at a high rotation speed range of the second motor.
- the higher the speed the lower the required torque to be output to the output rotating member of the vehicle drive device.
- the required torque limit value is set in advance so as to decrease at a constant decrease rate with respect to the increase in the second motor rotation speed, By determining that the required torque does not exceed the required torque limit value, the required torque is limited.
- Patent Document 2 discloses an engine that outputs power to drive wheels, a first motor that is a generator that generates electric power using part of the output of the engine, and a motor that can input and output power to the drive wheels.
- a technique for limiting the output torque of the second electric motor (hereinafter referred to as second electric motor torque) is disclosed.
- the control device for a vehicle drive device described in Patent Document 2 limits the second motor torque toward zero when the drive wheel slips.
- the amount of decrease in the second motor torque per unit time ( Hereinafter, the MG torque limit inclination) is variable according to the charge limit state of the battery and the amount of power generated by the first motor.
- JP 2005-313865 A Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2008-087649
- the electric motor is increased with an increase in the rotational speed of the electric motor in order to prevent the motor from rotating at a high speed.
- the output torque (motor torque) of the motor is limited.
- the motor rotation speed may be temporarily increased during a shift of the automatic transmission interposed between the motor and the drive wheel. Since the increase in the motor rotation speed is abrupt, the motor torque is reduced abruptly. If so, the reduction amount (motor output reduction rate) per unit time of the output of the motor (motor output) becomes very large.
- an inverter is interposed between the motor and the power source for the motor, and the input voltage to the inverter is smoothed on the power source side of the inverter.
- a smoothing capacitor is connected.
- excess power is temporarily generated due to a response delay of the power supply circuit including the smoothing capacitor, and the terminal voltage of the smoothing capacitor becomes high.
- the limit value (upper limit value) for the motor torque is reduced at a constant reduction rate (decrease gradient) with respect to the increase in the motor rotation speed in the high rotation speed region of the motor. It is conceivable to limit the torque so that the motor torque does not exceed the limit value. However, when the torque is limited as described above, it is necessary to reduce the reduction rate of the limit value in order to reduce the motor output reduction rate. In this way, in the process of increasing the motor rotation speed, the limit value for the motor torque is reduced from the motor rotation speed that is somewhat low according to the motor rotation speed, and the power that limits the maximum vehicle speed, etc. There was a possibility of reducing the performance. Such a problem is not yet known.
- FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining the problem.
- FIG. 13 is a time chart showing an example in which the second motor torque is limited when the accelerator pedal is depressed and the drive wheel slips in the vehicle drive device of Patent Document 2.
- the second motor is represented as MG
- the time chart of the MG rotation speed (second motor rotation speed) and the MG torque (second motor torque) the case where the MG torque limit inclination is small is indicated by a broken line L01a. , L02a, and solid lines L01b, L02b when the MG torque limiting gradient is large.
- the MG torque limit for reducing the MG torque is started due to slipping of the drive wheel at time tA1. That is, the MG torque starts decreasing from the time tA1.
- the MG torque reaches zero at time tA2 when the MG torque limit inclination is large, and becomes zero at time tA3 that is later than the time tA2 when the MG torque limit inclination is small. Has reached.
- the predetermined allowable maximum rotation speed (MG allowable maximum rotation speed) of the second electric motor exceeds the broken line L01a but does not exceed the solid line L01b.
- the amount of increase in the MG rotation speed during the MG torque limitation differs depending on the magnitude of the MG torque limitation gradient immediately after the time when the MG torque starts to be throttled (time tA1).
- time tA1 the time when the MG torque starts to be throttled
- the MG rotation that can make the MG torque zero in the MG torque limit is because the speed varies depending on the magnitude of the MG torque limit slope and is indefinite.
- the MG torque limitation performed by the control device for a vehicle drive device described in Patent Document 2 is not suitable for limiting the MG rotational speed to a desired rotational speed or less.
- the second electric motor There is a problem that it is impossible to reliably prevent the high rotation of MG.
- the present invention has been made against the background of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide an electric motor and an automatic transmission that constitutes a part of a power transmission path between the electric motor and drive wheels.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a control device for a vehicle drive device that suppresses a high rotation of the electric motor and that can reduce a decrease in power performance of the vehicle when the output torque of the electric motor is limited.
- the subject matter of the first invention for achieving the above object is as follows: (a) an electric motor connected to an electric power source for an electric motor via an inverter; an inverter smoothing capacitor connected to the electric power source for the electric motor of the inverter; A control device for a vehicle drive device comprising a transmission that forms part of a power transmission path between the electric motor and the drive wheels, wherein (b) the rotational speed of the electric motor increases the speed of the transmission If the motor blows higher than the rotational speed before the gear change at the time of shifting, the higher the rotational speed of the motor, the smaller the output torque of the motor and the gradient of the motor output torque reduction amount. The larger the speed, the larger.
- the motor torque reduction gradient of the prior art is determined so that, for example, the inverter can be protected from the surplus power at the start of motor torque reduction in the process of limiting and reducing the motor torque.
- the motor torque decrease gradient is small in the high motor torque region where the motor torque is high and large in the low motor torque region where the motor torque is low.
- the motor rotational acceleration is sufficiently low, so the amount of decrease in motor torque per unit time is not so large, that is, the surplus power is so large.
- the motor torque decrease gradient in the low motor torque region can be made larger than that in the conventional technique.
- the motor torque can begin to decrease from a higher motor speed than in the prior art. That is, according to the first aspect of the present invention, it is possible to suppress the increase in the rotation speed of the electric motor in the same manner as in the prior art, and to obtain the protection of the inverter from the surplus power in the same manner as in the prior art, and when the motor torque is limited. It is possible to reduce the power performance degradation of the vehicle.
- the reduction in the power performance of the vehicle when the output torque of the electric motor is limited in the first invention is made, for example, the same level as the prior art, the maximum value of the surplus power generated by the output torque limitation of the electric motor is Since the capacitance of the inverter smoothing capacitor can be smaller than that of the conventional technology, the inverter smoothing capacitor can be reduced in size and cost.
- the gist of the second invention is a control device for a vehicle drive device according to the first invention, wherein the rotational speed of the electric motor blows higher than the rotational speed before the gear shift when the transmission is upshifted.
- the output torque of the motor is reduced to zero or less when the rotation speed of the motor is equal to or higher than a predetermined rotation speed equal to or lower than a predetermined maximum allowable rotation speed of the motor. In this way, since the motor rotation speed decreases due to the rotation resistance of the motor when the motor torque is less than zero, it is possible to prevent the motor rotation speed from exceeding the allowable maximum rotation speed.
- the gist of the third invention is a control device for a vehicle drive device according to the first invention or the second invention, wherein (a) the rotational speed of the electric motor is changed before the gear shift when the transmission is upshifted. When the motor is blown higher than the rotational speed of the motor, the motor output torque is limited to a motor torque limit value that becomes smaller as the rotational speed of the motor becomes higher, and (b) The ratio of the reduction amount of the motor torque limit value increases as the rotation speed of the motor increases, and (c) the motor torque limit value increases when the rotation speed of the motor blows up during the upshift of the transmission.
- the terminal voltage of the inverter smoothing capacitor that rises in connection with a decrease in the output torque of the electric motor is determined so as not to exceed a predetermined allowable voltage. To. In this way, when the rotational speed of the electric motor blows higher than the rotational speed before the shift at the time of the upshift of the transmission, the terminal voltage of the inverter smoothing capacitor is prevented from exceeding the allowable voltage. , High rotation of the electric motor can be suppressed.
- the gist of the fourth invention is the control device for a vehicle drive device according to any one of the first to third inventions, wherein the transmission is the highest gear position on the highest vehicle speed side.
- the output torque of the motor is allowed to be larger than that in the case where the transmission is a gear other than the highest gear as compared with the motor without changing the rotational speed.
- the upshift of the transmission is not performed.
- the rotation speed of the motor may be increased even when the drive wheel slips, but at the time of the slip, the rotation resistance of the drive wheel with respect to the road surface is generated and the rotation member such as the drive wheel is applied to the motor.
- the motor rotation speed does not increase as rapidly as during the up-shift because of being connected. Therefore, according to the fourth aspect of the present invention, when the transmission is at the maximum gear position, the increase in the rotation speed of the electric motor is suppressed without being excessive and insufficient, and the power performance of the vehicle is further reduced when the motor torque is limited. It can be reduced.
- the motor torque limit value decreases as the terminal voltage of the inverter smoothing capacitor increases or as the charge stored in the inverter smoothing capacitor increases.
- the motor torque limit value becomes smaller as the rotation speed of the motor becomes higher in a rotation speed range higher than a predetermined torque limit start rotation speed of the motor.

Therefore, in the time chart of the related art (broken line) in FIG. 6, in the process in which the second motor torque Tmg2 is limited and decreased, the time decrease rate of the second motor torque Tmg2 at the time tB2 is the maximum, and the time tB2 As time elapses, the rate of time decrease approaches zero.
- the second motor output decrease rate RPmg2 In the time chart (broken line) of the second motor output decrease rate RPmg2 that is the slope (unit: W / sec, for example) of the output decrease time of the second motor MG2, the second motor output decrease rate RPmg2 is tB2. It is the maximum at the time point and decreases with the passage of time from the time point tB2. Therefore, in the time chart of the prior art (broken line), the second motor output reduction rate RPmg2 is an allowable value LRPmg2 (hereinafter referred to as a second motor output reduction rate allowable value LRPmg2) experimentally determined in advance at time tB2.
- LRPmg2 an allowable value LRPmg2
- the second motor output reduction rate allowable value LRPmg2 is an allowable value corresponding to the allowable voltage LVcon of the smoothing capacitor voltage Vcon. For example, when the smoothing capacitor voltage Vcon becomes the allowable voltage LVcon under a predetermined condition.
- the second motor output reduction rate RPmg2 is experimentally determined in advance.
- the second motor torque Tmg2 set to the second motor torque limit value LUTmg2 starts to decrease from the time tB3, but as time elapses from the time tB3.
- the time reduction rate of the second motor torque Tmg2 does not approach zero.
- the difference in the change in the second motor torque Tmg2 with respect to the prior art is caused by the up-shift second motor torque limit map Lup shown in FIG. 5, and the higher the second motor rotation speed Nmg2, the higher the motor. This is because the torque limit value decreasing gradient increases.
- the second motor output decrease rate RPmg2 is, for example, the second motor from the time tB3 to the time when the second motor torque Tmg2 becomes zero.
- the output reduction rate allowable value LRPmg2 is maintained at a slightly lower magnitude. Therefore, the margin of the second motor output reduction rate RPmg2 relative to the second motor output reduction rate allowable value LRPmg2 is made smaller than that in the prior art (broken line) in the process of reducing the second motor torque Tmg2.
- the margin of the second motor output decrease rate RPmg2 with respect to the second motor output decrease rate allowable value LRPmg2 is reduced, thereby reducing tB3.

- the allowable value of the second motor output reduction rate of the second motor output reduction rate RPmg2 can be made smaller than the rotational speed increase width until This is because the margin with respect to LRPmg2 is smaller in the present embodiment than in the prior art over the entire process of reducing the second motor torque Tmg2. As can be seen from FIG.
- the second motor rotational speed Nmg2 is allowed by executing the motor torque limiting control.

It can be set higher.
- FIG. 7 is a flowchart for explaining a main part of the control operation of the electronic control unit 28, that is, a control operation for limiting the second motor torque Tmg2 based on the second motor rotation speed Nmg2, for example, several msec to several m It is repeatedly executed with an extremely short cycle time of about 10 msec.
- step it is determined whether or not the upshift control of the automatic transmission 22 is being performed. If the determination of SA1 is affirmative, that is, if the upshift control of the automatic transmission 22 is being performed, the process proceeds to SA2. On the other hand, if the determination at SA1 is negative, the operation goes to SA3.
- SA1 in addition to determining whether or not the upshift control of the automatic transmission 22 is being performed, it is determined whether or not the accelerator is on, that is, whether or not an acceleration operation for accelerating the vehicle 8 is being performed. May be. If so, the determination of SA1 is affirmed when the upshift control of the automatic transmission 22 is being performed and the accelerator is on.

Then, the motor torque limit control is executed. In the motor torque limit control, the second motor torque Tmg2 is limited based on the second motor rotation speed Nmg2 using the second motor torque limit map Lup during the upshift.
- the second motor torque limit map Lnup (see FIG. 5) during non-upshifting is selected in order to limit the second motor torque Tmg2 in the motor torque limit control. The Then, the motor torque limit control is executed. In the motor torque limit control, the second motor torque limit Tmg2 is limited based on the second motor rotation speed Nmg2 by using the second motor torque limit map Lnup during the non-upshift. Is done.
- the second motor torque limiting means 92 is used when the second motor rotation speed Nmg2 is temporarily blown higher than the rotation speed before the shift at the time of the upshift of the automatic transmission 22. Executes the motor torque limit control. In the motor torque limit control, the second motor torque Tmg2 is decreased as the second motor rotation speed Nmg2 is higher according to the second motor torque limit map Lup during upshifting in FIG. Further, the gradient of the output torque reduction amount of the second motor MG2 that is the ratio of the reduction amount of the second motor torque Tmg2 to the increase amount of the second motor rotation speed Nmg2 is increased as the second motor rotation speed Nmg2 is higher.

- the high rotation speed of the second electric motor MG2 can be suppressed to the same level as that of the above-described conventional technology, and the protection of the inverters 30 and 44 from the temporary surplus power stored in the inverter smoothing capacitor 66 is compared with that of the conventional technology. It is possible to obtain the same, and further, it is possible to reduce the reduction in the power performance of the vehicle 8 when the second electric motor torque Tmg2 is limited as compared with the related art.
- the second motor MG2 is higher than the conventional technique. Since a larger second electric motor torque Tmg2 is allowed in the rotational speed region, for example, as shown in the shift diagram of FIG. 4, the upshift line LUP can be set to a higher vehicle speed side than the above prior art. That is, in the present embodiment, the degree of freedom for setting the upshift line LUP is high, and thereby fuel efficiency can be improved.

Accordingly, since the second motor rotational speed Nmg2 decreases due to the rotational resistance of the second motor MG2 when the second motor torque Tmg2 is less than zero, the second motor rotational speed Nmg2 does not exceed the allowable maximum rotational speed Nmg2max. Is possible.
- the second motor torque limiting means 92 temporarily blows up when the second motor rotation speed Nmg2 is higher than the rotation speed before shifting when the automatic transmission 22 is upshifted.
- the motor torque limit control for limiting the second motor torque Tmg2 to the second motor torque limit value LUTmg2 or less is executed.

Accordingly, when the second motor rotation speed Nmg2 is temporarily blown up during the upshift of the automatic transmission 22, the second motor MG2 is increased while the smoothing capacitor voltage Vcon does not exceed the allowable voltage LVcon. Can be suppressed
- the second motor torque limit value LUTmg2 determined from the second motor torque limit map Lnup during non-upshifting is the second motor torque determined from the second motor torque limit map Lup during upshifting. It is larger than the limit value LUTmg2. Accordingly, the second motor torque limiting means 92 is larger when the automatic transmission 22 is not up-shifted than when the automatic transmission 22 is up-shifted, without changing the second motor rotation speed Nmg2.
- the second motor torque Tmg2 is allowed.

If the determination at SB1 is affirmative, that is, if the current gear position of the automatic transmission 22 is the highest gear position, the process proceeds to SA3. On the other hand, if the determination at SB1 is negative, the operation goes to SA2. The determination at SB1 is made because the upshift is not performed if the current gear position of the automatic transmission 22 is the highest gear position.
