[20] In addition, the low pressure accumulator 3 is independently provided in association with the downstream side of the NC type solenoid valve 2b so that oil exiting the wheel brake 1 side is temporarily stored in the ABS decompression mode.
[21] In addition, the medium pressure accumulator 8 is for supplying the hydraulic pressure in the state of charge to the pump 4 side in the TCS mode or the ESP mode, which is an oil supply passage for bypassing the hydraulic pressure discharged from the pump 4 back to the suction side. It is arrange | positioned in the middle of (8a). In addition, an NC type solenoid valve 9a which is open in the TCS mode or the ESP mode is further disposed on the upstream side of the medium pressure accumulator 8 of the oil supply passage 8a, and the medium pressure accumulator 8 of the oil supply passage 8a is further disposed. A relief valve 9b is provided on the upstream side.

An accumulator 40 and an electronic control unit (ECU) (not shown) for controlling the electrically actuated drive element are provided, which are compactly installed in the hydraulic block (not shown).
[31] The plurality of solenoid valves 21 and 22 are associated with the upstream and downstream sides of the wheel brake 10, which are normally open solenoid valves disposed upstream of the wheel brake 10 and are normally kept open. (21, hereinafter referred to as NO type solenoid valve), and a normally closed solenoid valve (22, hereinafter referred to as NC type solenoid valve) disposed downstream thereof and kept normally closed. The opening and closing operation of the solenoid valves 21 and 22 is controlled by an electronic control unit that detects the vehicle speed through wheel sensors (not shown) disposed on each wheel side, and NC type solenoid valves according to decompression braking ( 22) is opened and the oil coming out of the wheel brake 10 side is temporarily stored in the low pressure accumulator 32.
[32] The pump 30 is driven by the motor 31 to suck and discharge the oil stored in the low pressure accumulator 32 (in ABS boosting or holding mode), thereby transferring the hydraulic pressure to the wheel brake 10 side or the master cylinder 12 side. Done.
[33] In addition, the main flow path 50 connecting the primary port 12a of the master cylinder 12 and the outlet side of the pump 30 has a NO type solenoid valve 51 for traction control control (hereinafter referred to as a TC solenoid valve). Is installed. The TC solenoid valve 51 is normally maintained in an open state so that the braking hydraulic pressure generated in the master cylinder 12 during normal braking through the brake pedal 11 is transmitted to the wheel brake 10 side through the main flow path 50. In the brake traction control mode described later, the closing operation is performed by the electronic control unit.
[34] In addition, the main flow path 50 is connected to a relief flow path 60 connecting the outlet side of the pump 30 and the primary port 12a of the master cylinder 12 while rotating the TC solenoid valve 51. Here, a relief valve 61 is provided. The relief flow path 60 and the relief valve 61 are for refluxing the braking hydraulic pressure discharged from the pump 30 when the traction control is higher than necessary to return it to the master cylinder 12 side.
[35] In addition, an oil suction flow path 70 branched from the main flow path 50 to guide the oil of the master cylinder 12 to be sucked to the inlet side of the pump 30 is provided, where the oil is directed only to the inlet side of the pump 30. The 1st check valve 71 which flows is provided. That is, the mechanically operated first check valve 71 is installed upstream of the oil suction passage 70 to be opened only in the TCS mode, and the back flow of the oil is prevented.
[36] In addition, the medium pressure accumulator 40 is supplied with the hydraulic pressure discharged from the pump 30 to the inlet side of the pump 30 in the ESP mode. For this purpose, the electronically controlled brake system according to the present invention provides the hydraulic pressure to the medium pressure accumulator 40. And a hydraulic pressure supply passage 90 branched from the charging passage 80 and connected to the oil suction passage 70 and a second check valve 91 for opening and closing the same. The detailed structure of is as follows.
[37] First, one end of the filling channel 80 is a flow path connecting the outlet of the pump 30 and the NO type solenoid valve 21 of the wheel brake 10, that is, the downstream side of the TC solenoid valve 51 of the main channel 50. It is connected to, the other end thereof is connected to the medium pressure accumulator 40. In addition, a relief valve 81 is provided in the filling flow path 80 to relieve the medium pressure accumulator 40 when the hydraulic pressure is filled above the set pressure (3 bar in the present embodiment).
[38] One end of the hydraulic supply passage 90 is connected to the downstream side of the relief valve 81 of the filling passage 80, and the other end thereof is connected to the downstream side of the first check valve 71 of the oil suction passage 70. . In the middle of the hydraulic pressure supply passage (90), a second check valve (91) which is mechanically opened and closed so that the hydraulic pressure flows only toward the oil suction passage (70) is provided. That is, the second check valve 91 is opened only in the ESP mode, so that the hydraulic pressure filled in the medium pressure accumulator 40 passes to the inlet side of the pump 30 via the hydraulic pressure supply passage 90 and the oil suction passage 70. Will be supplied.
[39] On the other hand, a normal closed solenoid valve 92 is further provided downstream of the oil suction passage 70. The normal closed solenoid valve 92 is controlled by the electronic control unit so as to remain normally closed and open only in the TCS mode and the ESP mode.
[40] Next will be described the operation and effects of the electronically controlled brake system according to the present invention configured as described above.
[41] First, if a slip occurs during braking in a vehicle equipped with an electronically controlled brake system, ABS operation is performed by mixing into three modes, such as depressurization, boosting and holding, based on the signals input from each wheel sensor. The steps are as follows.
[42] That is, when the braking pressure in the wheel brake 10 is greater than the road surface condition while the braking force is exerted by the braking hydraulic pressure generated by the master cylinder 12 by stepping on the brake pedal 11, the electronic control unit should be lowered. In the NC type solenoid valve 22 is opened to perform the ABS pressure reduction mode. Accordingly, as in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 3, the hydraulic pressure is partially released from the wheel brake 10, which is temporarily stored in the low pressure accumulator 32. Through this process, the braking pressure of the wheel brakes 10 mounted on each wheel is lowered, thereby preventing the sliding phenomenon on the road surface.
[43] On the other hand, when the ABS decompression mode lasts a long time, the vehicle braking efficiency is lowered. In this case, the electronic control unit performs the ABS boosting mode by operating the pump 30 to increase the hydraulic pressure of the wheel brake 10. Accordingly, as indicated by the arrow in FIG. 4, the oil stored in the low pressure accumulator 32 is pressurized through each pump 30, and the wheel is opened through the high pressure accumulator 33 and the NO type solenoid valve 21 which is opened. By being transmitted to the brake 10 side, the braking pressure is increased.
[44] In addition, in order to reach a state in which the braking pressure generates the optimum braking force or to prevent resonance of the vehicle, an ABS pressure holding mode for maintaining the braking pressure in a constant state is required. That is, the ABS pressure holding mode prevents the pressure change in the wheel brake 10, and closes the NO type solenoid valve 21 on the wheel brake 10 to maintain the braking pressure to block the hydraulic pressure from being transmitted. do. Accordingly, the hydraulic pressure discharged from the pump 30 is transferred to the master cylinder 12 side via the open TC solenoid valve 51, whereby the ABS pressure holding mode is stably performed.
[45] Next, a case in which the vehicle suddenly starts and starts the TCS mode of the electronically controlled brake system according to the present invention will be described as an example.
[46] When the road starts to slip on the acceleration pedal (not shown) in a slippery road condition, slipping occurs and this is detected by the electronic control unit through the wheel sensor. In this case, the normally closed solenoid valve 92 downstream of the oil suction passage 70 is opened, and the TC solenoid valve 51 of the main passage 50 is closed, and the pump 30 is driven to operate the TCS mode. Is performed.
[47] That is, as indicated by the arrow in FIG. 5, the master cylinder 12 side oil is sucked into the inlet of the pump 30 through the oil suction passage 70 while opening the first check valve 71, and the pump ( The oil discharged to the outlet of 30 is delivered to the wheel brake 10 through the main flow path 50 and the open NO solenoid valve 21 to act as a braking pressure. As a result, a predetermined lock is applied to the wheel even when the driver steps on the acceleration pedal and the vehicle does not step on the brake pedal 11, so that the vehicle starts slowly and stably even under a slip condition because the road surface is not good.
[48] The following describes the ESP mode operation of the electronically controlled brake system according to the present invention.
[49] If the vehicle is slippery when driving at high speeds or turning, or if excessive yaw moments occur, the vehicle may not adjust to the driver's will and in the worst case the body may spin. ESP (Electronic Stability Program) mode In consideration of such a situation, each wheel brake 10 independently supplies appropriate braking hydraulic pressure to maintain a stable driving state of the vehicle.
[50] That is, with the vehicle starting, the TC solenoid valve 51 and the NO solenoid valve 21 are closed in the electronic control unit, and the normal closed solenoid valve 92 of the oil suction flow path 70 is opened. The hydraulic pressure charging mode is performed by driving 30.
[51] Accordingly, as indicated by arrows in FIG. 6, the oil of the master cylinder 12 is sucked into the inlet side of the pump 30 through the oil suction flow path 70. The pressurized oil discharged to the outlet of the pump 30 is filled in the medium pressure accumulator 40 through the filling passage 80. At this time, when the medium pressure accumulator 40 is filled to the predetermined pressure or more, the hydraulic pressure is discharged to the master cylinder 12 side through the relief valve 81. Therefore, the medium pressure accumulator 40 is filled with an appropriate hydraulic pressure (3 bar in the present invention) within a short time as the vehicle starts up. Since the medium pressure accumulator 40 hydraulic charging mode is periodically performed in consideration of hydraulic leakage as well as when the vehicle is started, the medium pressure accumulator 40 is always kept in a state where oil of a predetermined pressure (3 bar) is filled.
[52] In this way, if the steering wheel is excessively bent while driving in the state where the medium pressure accumulator 40 is filled with hydraulic pressure, and exceeds a preset steering angle, an over steering phenomenon in which the vehicle is moved inward in the turning direction and friction of the road surface Under steering occurs due to conditions such that the vehicle is pulled outward in the direction of turning.
[53] When this situation occurs, the electronic control unit drives the pump 30 while the normal closed solenoid valve 92 on the downstream side of the oil suction passage 70 is opened. Accordingly, as indicated by the arrow in FIG. 7, the hydraulic pressure filled in the medium pressure accumulator 40 is pumped through the hydraulic pressure supply passage 90 and the oil supply passage 70 while opening the second check valve 91. ) Is supplied to the inlet side. And the pressurized oil discharged to the outlet of the pump 30 is delivered to each wheel brake 10 side to act as a braking pressure.
[54] At this time, in the case of oversteering, the brake pressure is applied by pumping the hydraulic pressure charged in the low-medium pressure accumulator 40 to the wheel brake of the outer wheel in the direction in which the vehicle is turning, while braking to the wheel brake of the inner wheel during under steering. By applying pressure, the vehicle proceeds stably according to the driver's intention to steer.
[55] In this ESP mode, since the hydraulic pressure filled in the medium pressure accumulator 40 is directly supplied to the inlet side of the pump 30, the braking pressure transfer to the wheel brake 10 side is made faster.
[56] As described in detail above; According to the electronically controlled brake system for a vehicle according to the present invention, in the TCS mode, a first check valve is installed upstream of an oil suction passage that guides the oil of the master cylinder to the pump inlet side, and the hydraulic pressure of the medium pressure accumulator is sucked in the ESP mode. A second check valve is provided in the hydraulic pressure supply passage that guides the pump inlet via the flow passage. Accordingly, the valve of the oil suction passage and the hydraulic supply passage consists of check valves that are mechanically operated to simplify the overall brake system control, and the hydraulic block is also compactly configured to reduce the manufacturing cost.
