An off-road vehicle includes a driveline, a control system, and a braking system. The driveline provides driveline power and driveline brake power to a first tractive assembly and/or a second tractive assembly. The control system stores vehicle information, determines driving instructions based on environment data, and determines speed references for tractive elements of the first and second tractive assemblies based on the driving instructions and the vehicle information. The braking system includes brakes and a braking subsystem. The brake subsystem operates the brakes to provide brake power to one or more components of the first and/or second tractive assemblies. The brake controller controls the brakes to selectively provide the brake power and the control system controls the driveline to selectively provide the driveline power and the driveline brake power based on current speeds of the tractive elements and the speed references to accommodate the driving instructions.

In an electrified vehicle, a vibration damping control device performs vibration damping control for canceling or reducing, with the use of regenerative braking, a predetermined vibration component by monitoring the vibration component and controlling a generator control device depending on the vibration component. A system control device determines whether the vibration damping control is performable based on at least a charge status of a battery. An anti-lock braking system control device transmits a request signal to the system control device while performing anti-lock braking system control. The system control device transmits a command signal to the vibration damping control device when the vibration damping control is determined to be performable and the request signal is received from the anti-lock braking system control device. The vibration damping control device performs the vibration damping control when the command signal is received from the system control device.

The brake mode control system comprises a user interface, a driving information sensor, a braking controller, and a brake mode control panel. The user interface is configured to receive a brake mode input by a driver, the driving information sensor is configured to sense driving information of the vehicle, the braking controller is configured to determine a driving state of the vehicle based on the driving information of the vehicle sensed by the driving information sensor and selectively change the brake mode received by the user interface according to the determined driving state of the vehicle to achieve a final brake mode, and the brake mode control panel is configured to generate a different braking feel according to a pedal action force required for a pedal stroke based on the final brake mode.

The present invention provides a vehicle control device that enhances safety in an event of a collision of a vehicle. The vehicle control device includes: a speed calculator that calculates a vehicle speed at a time of collision when the collision of the vehicle is detected by the collision detection sensor, and a driving assist controller that performs automatic brake control based on the vehicle speed at the time of collision calculated by the speed calculator, wherein when a brake pedal is depressed at the time of collision of the vehicle, the speed calculator calculates the vehicle speed at the time of collision based on a highest of respective detected values by the wheel speed sensors for a plurality of wheels.

A method for operating a brake system. A brake request signal characterizing a brake request is generated by actuating a positioner system of an actuating circuit, and a setpoint brake pressure required in an active circuit is ascertained based on the brake request signal. An actual brake pressure is set in the active circuit according to the setpoint brake pressure using a pressure generation device by moving a displacement piston using an electric motor to actuate a wheel brake coupled with the active circuit. Under the condition that the brake request signal is constant over a predefined period of time, a pressure modulation is carried out, which includes setting the actual brake pressure in the active circuit to a value that is greater than the setpoint brake pressure, and lowering the actual brake pressure by moving the displacement piston using the electric motor until the setpoint brake pressure is reached.

A brake system for a trailer has first and second pneumatic circuits for supplying air pressure to the wheel ends on the trailer. The air pressure to brake devices at the wheel ends is controllable via a first brake ECU. First and second pressure control valves control pressure from the pneumatic circuits to the respective wheel ends. The system further has a second ECU adapted to electrically control the actuation of the pressure control valves.

The disclosure relates to a braking system for a vehicle having at least four brakable wheels, comprising at least four brake actuator units, each of which can be associated with one of the wheels of the vehicle, wherein each brake actuator unit is associated with an electronic control unit which is designed to activate the brake actuator unit in order to apply a braking force to an associated wheel. At least two of the control units are designed as a master unit and a brake signal from a brake actuation unit is sent directly to each of the master units, and wherein each master unit is directly connected in terms of signaling to at least another of the control units, designed as a slave unit, in order to forward the brake signal to the slave unit.
