Method for operating a vehicle brake system and vehicle brake system
A method for operating a vehicle brake system and a corresponding vehicle brake system, particularly for motor vehicles. The vehicle wheels of the motor vehicle associated with an axle are at least partially driven by ‘WV’ an electric motor that can be operated as a generator during regeneration of braking energy, thus exerting a braking regeneration el torque on the respective axle. To prevent overbraking on the rear axle, the regeneration torque acting on at least one rear axle (HA) is limited such that the slippage present on the at least one vehicle wheel of the rear axle (HA) does not exceed or only negligibly exceeds a first slippage threshold individually associated with the respective vehicle wheel.
1. A method for operating a vehicle brake system for motor vehicles having at least one front axle (FA) and at least one rear axle (RA), wherein each axle (FA, RA) is assigned at least two vehicle wheels,
wherein at least one wheel brake, which generates a braking torque, is provided on at least one of the front axle (FA) and the rear axle (RA),
wherein the vehicle wheels which are assigned to an axle (FA, RA) are at least partially driven by an electric motor which can be operated as a generator during regeneration of braking energy, and, during regeneration, exerts a braking regeneration torque on a respective axle (FA, RA),
wherein the regeneration torque acting on the at least one rear axle (RA) is limited in such a way that a slip present at at least one vehicle wheel of the at least one rear axle (RA) does not substantially exceed a first slip threshold which is respectively individually assigned to the at least one vehicle wheel of the at least one rear axle (RA), and
wherein a change in the regeneration torque takes place when the slip drops below a second slip threshold of the vehicle wheel of the at least one rear axle (RA) which has the greater slip.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the regeneration torque acting on the at least one rear axle (RA) is increased if the slip present at at least one vehicle wheel of the at least one rear axle (RA) drops below the second threshold which is individually assigned to the at least one vehicle wheel of the at least one rear axle (RA).
3. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a magnitude of a change in the regeneration torque depends on a distance of a determined slip from the first slip threshold or from the second slip threshold.
4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first slip threshold which is individually assigned to a vehicle wheel is variable.
5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the limitation of the regeneration torque is carried out by accounting for the slip of the vehicle wheel of the at least one rear axle (RA) which has the greater slip.
6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a distribution of a total braking force between a conventional brake and a regenerative brake is changed, thereby limiting the regeneration torque.
7. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein vehicle acceleration and filtered vehicle wheel acceleration are also used to calculate the slip.
8. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one wheel brake can be activated hydraulically.
9. A vehicle brake system for motor vehicles having at least one front axle (FA) and at least one rear axle (RA),
wherein each axle is assigned at least two vehicle wheels,
wherein at least one wheel brake, which generates a braking torque, is provided on the at least one front axle (FA) and/or the at least one rear axle (RA), and
wherein at least one of an open-loop and closed-loop control unit is provided,
wherein the vehicle wheels which are assigned to an axle are at least partially driven by an electric motor which can be operated as a generator during regeneration of braking energy and, in the process, exerts a braking regeneration torque on a respective axle,
wherein the open-loop and/or closed-loop control unit limits a regeneration torque acting on a rear axle (RA) in such a way that a slip present at least one vehicle wheel of the rear axle (RA) does not significantly exceed a first slip threshold which is respectively individually assigned to the at least one vehicle wheel of the rear axle (RA), and
wherein a change in the regeneration torque takes place when the slip drops below a second slip threshold of the vehicle wheel of the at least one rear axle (RA) which has the greater slip.
10. The vehicle brake system as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the at least one wheel brake can be activated hydraulically.
