This paper takes automobile disc brakes as the research object, and designs a novel magnetostrictive disc actuator based on the characteristics of large output force, high displacement resolution and fast response speed of giant magnetostrictive material. Based on the vehicle parameters of a new energy vehicle as the design basis, calculate the specific structure and size of the magnetostrictive actuator, and use CATIA software to complete the system parametric modeling, import the built model into COMSOL Multipysics. The simulation results show that the output displacement and output force of the actuator can meet the requirements of braking, and the maximum temperature of the surface of the friction pair is far from the temperature limit of the brake, the rationality of the design and the correctness of the simulation model are verified.
Mechatronics control technology can not only improve the performance of vehicles but also solve traditional automotive braking system problems such as long brake pipeline, lots of valve components, slow response and so on. In this paper, a giant-magnetostrictive actuator and a disc brake structure were used to build a drive control system, and the control system module was designed with a single-chip microcomputer as the core. Combined with sensor selection, software programming control was used to build the experimental test platform, and the maximum output displacement of the control system was 0.112156 mm, which was basically consistent with the theoretical calculation. The maximum output force was 3883 N, which exceeded the minimum output force of 3631 N calculated theoretically. According to the results of the test platform, the relevant test parameters were highly consistent with the theoretical calculation, which verified the correctness and effectiveness of the theoretical calculation and bench testbed design. It contributes to the improvement of vehicle active safety performance and can provide a new way for the development of an intelligent vehicle brake-by-wire system.
