Braking control device for vehicle
A control device including a fluid pressure control unit for controlling a pressure in a wheel cylinder by driving an electric motor of a pump on the basis of a command value; a motor target calculation unit for calculating a motor speed target value in accordance with an amount of increase in a fluid pressure target value; and a difference calculation unit for deriving a calculated value representing a difference obtained by subtracting the actual value from the target value for either the electric motor rotation speed or the pressure. The fluid pressure control unit derives the command value such that when the motor speed target value is less than the previous actual value for the electric motor rotation speed, the previous actual value is made the upper-limit of the command value, and the command value increases in proportion to the motor speed target value and to the calculated value.
COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY FOR OPERATING A COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY SYSTEM, COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY SYSTEM, AND VEHICLE
A compressor arrangement for operating a compressed air supply installation includes a pneumatic compressor and an electric motor arranged inside a drive housing, the electric motor having an internal stator and an external outer rotor. The external outer rotor is arranged in a rotatable manner about the internal stator. The external outer rotor is supported in a rotatable manner about a center axis with respect to the drive housing via a bearing arrangement. The bearing arrangement has at least one bearing. The external outer rotor is supported by the bearing arrangement on an outer circumference of the outer rotor.
Cooling device for forklift brake system
The present invention is related to a cooling device for a forklift brake system, which is capable of maintaining a predetermined level of heat-radiation performance by reducing heat when heat is generated in a service brake that is provided at a forklift driving shaft. A cooling device for a forklift brake system according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention allows cooling oil to bypass a cooler when a pressure of the cooling oil is abnormally increased or there is a concern that a pressure of the cooling oil is increased, thereby preventing the cooler from being damaged.
Hydraulic Assembly, Particularly for Supplying a Brake Circuit of a Vehicle Brake System with Fluid at Brake Pressure
A hydraulic assembly, particularly for supplying a brake circuit of a vehicle brake system with fluid at brake pressure, includes a throttle element, which in the unpressurized state rests with an upper side on a first support and with an underside on a second support, the supports being formed on opposite sides of the gap. The throttle device advantageously dispenses with a spring element for axial pre-tensioning, is accordingly of compact and cost-effective construction and is moreover easy to assemble.
