BRAKING SYSTEM FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE, CONTROL METHOD, AND ELECTRIC VEHICLE
A braking system, a method, and an electric vehicle. The braking system includes a central controller and a plurality of wheel end braking apparatuses. Each wheel end braking apparatus is configured to output braking force to a brake disc of one wheel to brake the electric vehicle. The central controller is configured to control wheel end braking apparatuses corresponding to rear wheels of the electric vehicle to output braking force to implement drifting.
Brake system of saddle-type vehicle
To provide a brake system for a saddled vehicle that ensures vehicle's stable behavior when a brake operating element is operated during automatic control. A brake system for a saddled vehicle includes: a control device exerting automatic control over a brake fluid pressure; and a front-wheel brake operating element and a rear-wheel brake operating element for a driver to manually operate a front-wheel brake and a rear-wheel brake. When an operation force is applied to at least one of the front-wheel brake operating element and the rear-wheel brake operating element while the front-wheel brake and the rear-wheel brake are under automatic control of the control device, if a brake fluid pressure corresponding to the operation force is less than a brake fluid pressure generated by the automatic control, the control device maintains the automatic control, and if a brake fluid pressure corresponding to the operation force is equal to or greater than a brake fluid pressure generated by the automatic control, the control device cancels the automatic control and generates the brake fluid pressure corresponding to the operation force.
ELECTROPNEUMATIC ABS BRAKING SYSTEM FOR A COMMERCIAL VEHICLE
An electropneumatic ABS brake system is for a utility vehicle. The brake system has: a foot brake valve operable via a brake pedal and including pneumatic output channels, axle service brake circuits connected to the output channels and each having an axle valve unit and ABS valves for actuating wheel service brakes, a control unit for actuating the ABS valves and the axle valve units, and a first pressure sensor connected to one of the two pneumatic output channels and configured to measure the pneumatic control pressure output by the foot brake valve and to output a first pressure signal to the control unit. A second pressure sensor is provided separately from the first sensor and is configured to output a second pressure signal to the control unit, which receives the two pressure signals and actuates the ABS valves and/or the axle valve units as a function of the signals.
