A system includes a collapsible trailer frame and a lifting mechanism coupled to the collapsible trailer frame. The lifting mechanism is configured to raise or lower a coil of pipe or a reel of pipe. The system also includes a braking mechanism.

A braking system operable independent of driver input, where the braking system includes a primary brake system, a secondary brake system, a primary controller controlling fluid pressure in the primary brake system, and a secondary controller controlling fluid pressure in the secondary brake system independently of the primary controller. There is also an actuator which is part of the primary brake system, where the actuator is controlled by the primary controller. A reservoir is in fluid communication with both the primary brake system and the secondary brake system, to supply fluid to both the primary brake system and the secondary brake system. The primary controller selectively actuates the actuator to control the fluid pressure in the primary brake system independently of driver input, to provide braking capability to a fully autonomous driving vehicle.

A vehicle braking device includes: a brake fluid pressure generation device arranged in a storage chamber separated from a vehicle cabin; and a brake operation part mechanically connected to the brake fluid pressure generation device, the brake operation part being not provided in the vehicle cabin. The brake fluid pressure generation device includes a cylinder and pistons configured to slide inside the cylinder. The brake fluid pressure generation device is configured to generate brake fluid pressure in accordance with strokes of the pistons. The brake fluid pressure generation device is arranged such that a sliding direction of the pistons is along a direction different from the vehicle front-rear direction in a plan view.

An emergency controller includes an emergency stop switch to be activated upon detection of an emergency, a control section to be enabled upon activation of the emergency stop switch, and an emergency stop mechanism configured to execute and release braking by a brake mechanism under control of the control section. The control section is configured to perform execution control for causing the emergency stop mechanism to execute braking by the brake mechanism and for stopping operation of the engine upon the condition that the emergency stop switch is activated while the engine is in operation. The control section is configured to perform restoration control for causing the emergency stop mechanism to release the braking by the brake mechanism upon the condition that the emergency stop switch is deactivated and the engine is started.

A braking system, in particular for a motor vehicle, including a braking force device having a brake booster for boosting a braking force and a brake pressure supply device for providing brake pressure with the aid of a brake medium, a braking device which may be acted on by pressure by the brake medium with the aid of the brake pressure supply device, and at least one sensor which is designed to detect a distance differential of a displacement means for the displacement of a volume of the brake medium of the braking force device. The braking force device is designed to ascertain the volume of brake medium to be displaced on the basis of the detected distance differential.

A system for controlling a brake of a unit hauled by a work vehicle may generally include a valve assembly. When a speed of the work vehicle exceeds a predetermined speed threshold, the valve assembly may be configured to allow the brake to be actuated when first and second brake pedals of the work vehicle are depressed, either individually or simultaneously. However, when the speed of the work vehicle is less than the predetermined speed threshold, the valve assembly may only be configured to allow the brake to be actuated when both of the first and second brake pedals are depressed simultaneously.

A brake system includes a master cylinder configured to generate a hydraulic pressure, a primary brake actuator configured to increase and decrease the hydraulic pressure generated in the master cylinder, a secondary brake actuator connected in series with and downstream of the master cylinder and in series with and upstream of the primary brake actuator, and configured to increase and decrease the hydraulic pressure generated in the master cylinder, and at least one wheel cylinder configured to apply brake torque to a wheel of a vehicle based on the hydraulic pressure generated by the master cylinder and increased or decreased by the primary actuator or the secondary actuator. An automatic brake hold control method includes sequential performing an automatic brake hold control on at least one wheel cylinder by the primary brake actuator and then the secondary brake actuator.

Disclosed is a hydraulic control apparatus of a brake system including a modulator block having a motor bore, and a motor including a cover that covers an opening of a case accommodating a stator and a rotor and is supported on one side of the modulator block, wherein a vent hole for air flow between the inside and the outside of the motor is formed on the cover and a communication passage for communicating the motor bore and the vent hole is formed in the modulator block.
