Method for operating a drive device for a motor vehicle and corresponding drive device
A method for operating a drive device for a motor vehicle includes: during a coasting operation of the motor vehicle in which a shifting clutch is open and the internal combustion engine stands still starting the internal combustion engine in a first operating mode with the electric machine and in a second operating mode by at least partially closing the shifting clutch with a coupling torque set at the shifting clutch, thereby operatively connecting the internal combustion engine with at least one wheel, wherein the internal combustion engine is started in the first operating mode when a predictively determined wheel slip predictive value exceeds a wheel slip setpoint value, and wherein when the internal combustion engine is started in the second operating mode the electric machine is used for starting the internal combustion engine and for driving the at least one wheel when a wheel slip actual value exceeds the wheel slip setpoint value.
1. A method for operating a drive device for a motor vehicle, said method comprising:
during a coasting operation of the motor vehicle in which a shifting clutch is open and the internal combustion engine stands still starting the internal combustion engine in a first operating mode with the electric machine and in a second operating mode by at least partially closing the shifting clutch with a coupling torque set at the shifting clutch, thereby operatively connecting the internal combustion engine with at least one wheel,
wherein the internal combustion engine is started in the first operating mode when a predictively determined wheel slip predictive value exceeds a wheel slip setpoint value, and
wherein when the internal combustion engine is started in the second operating mode the electric machine is used for starting the internal combustion engine and for driving the at least one wheel when a wheel slip actual value exceeds the wheel slip setpoint value.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the wheel slip setpoint value is one of an absolute value, a relative value with respect to a starting value and a differential value.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising after starting the internal combustion engine in the first operating mode at least partially closing the shifting clutch, to drive the at least one wheel.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein after starting the internal combustion engine in the first operating mode the shifting clutch is closed completely to drive the at least one wheel.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining the coupling torque by taking a wheel slip actual value into account, said wheel slip actual value being determined based on at least one of the measured wheel slip of the at least one wheel and the calculated wheel slip of the at least one wheel.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the wheel slip actual value is determined from a wheel slip of multiple wheels of the motor vehicle.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the wheel slip actual value is determined from the wheel slip of the multiple wheels of the motor vehicle by one of weighted average formation, differential formation, sum formation and ratio formation.
8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the wheel slip is determined while a coupling torque, which is different from zero is transmitted via the shifting clutch.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising increasing the coupling torque increased when the wheel slip actual value is greater than the wheel slip setpoint value to drive the wheel by means of the electric machine.
10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising controlling the wheel slip actual value by open loop or closed loop control to the wheel slip setpoint value or in the direction of the wheel slip setpoint value by adjusting the coupling torque.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein a torque provided by the electric machine in the second operating mode is selected so that said torque provided by the electric machine is greater than the coupling torque and a starting torque required for starting the internal combustion engine.
12. A drive device for a motor vehicle, comprising:
an internal combustion engine;
a shifting clutch adapted for operatively connecting the internal combustion engine with at least one wheel of the motor vehicle, and
an electric machine for starting the internal combustion engine, wherein the drive device is configured
to start the internal combustion engine during a coasting operation of the motor vehicle in which a shifting clutch is open and the internal combustion engine stands still, in a first operating mode with the electric machine and in a second operating mode by at least partially closing the shifting clutch with a coupling torque set at the shifting clutch, thereby operatively connecting the internal combustion engine with at least one wheel,
to start the internal combustion engine in the first operating mode when a predictively determined wheel slip predictive value exceeds a wheel slip setpoint value, and
when the internal combustion engine is started in the second operating mode to operate the electric machine for starting the internal combustion engine and for driving the at least one wheel when a wheel slip actual value exceeds the wheel slip setpoint value.
