What are control system standards for simulation equipment for driver training in Vietnam?
In Sub-section 2.2.1.1 Section 2 QCVN 106:2020/BGTVT National technical regulations on simulation equipment for driver training - car driving learning cabin issued together with Circular 37/2020/TT-BGTVT controls system standards on simulation devices for driver training as follows:
a) Steering wheel
- Symmetrical and at least 300mm wide;
- Limited rotation in both directions (minimum 1.75 revolutions each side);
- There is feedback force on the steering wheel at different vehicle speeds and steering angles, the maximum torque is between 2 ÷ 5 Nm;
- Able to automatically return to the neutral position when the vehicle turns and stops applying force to the steering wheel rim.
b) Gear lever
- There must be symbols to identify the positions of numbers;
- Digital settings must be specified according to the device category (manual/automatic);
- For manual transmission control, there should be a mechanism to lock the gear lever position controlled by the clutch pedal. The clutch pedal and gear lever position interlock mechanism must be reliable (the clutch pedal must be depressed to change the gear lever position);
- For automatic gear lever controllers, there needs to be a mechanism to lock the gear lever position controlled by the brake pedal. The brake pedal and gear lever position interlock mechanism must be reliable (the brake pedal must be depressed to move the gear lever out of position P, from D to R, from D to 1 or 2, from R and D about P);
- The impact force of the transmission lever must be in the range from 10N to 50N.
- The gear symbols are specified in Table 2 below;
No
Type of driving practice cabin
Symbols of numerical positions
1
Manual transmission vehicle (manual transmission)
Number N; Forward numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5; reverse gear: Rs
2
Automatic transmission car
Number P, N; D number, M number (+,-) / L number, Number 1, 2; reverse gear R
Table 2: Regulations on the number of gear positions on the gear lever
c) Accelerator pedal
- Equipped with a mechanism to ensure that the pedal automatically returns to its original position when force is removed;
- Total travel of the accelerator pedal is within the range (0 ÷ 100) mm;
- Pedal force must be within the range (0 ÷ 100) N.
d) Brake pedal
- Equipped with a mechanism to ensure that the pedal automatically returns to its original position when force is removed;
- Non-linear feedback force along the pedal stroke: simulates the difference in feedback force between 2 phases (Phase 1: free stroke when the brake pads are not in contact, Phase 2: when braking begins effective);
- Maximum travel of the brake pedal is within the range (0 ÷ 135) mm;
- Pedal force must be within the range (0 ÷ 500) N.
d) Handbrake
- The pulling force of the parking brake lever must be between 20 N and 100 N.
e) Clutch foot
- Equipped with a mechanism to ensure that the pedal automatically returns to its original position when force is removed;
- Non-linear feedback force along the pedal stroke: simulates the phenomenon of feedback force difference between 2 phases (phase 1: from the moment the clutch pedal starts to the moment the clutch starts to disengage, phase 2: from the moment the clutch starts to disengage until the clutch disengages completely);
- The maximum travel of the pedal is still within the range (0 ÷ 120) mm;
- Pedal force must be within the range (0 ÷ 150) N.
