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.

A system is provided for shielding a tone ring assembly in automotive vehicles. The system comprises a ring cap with a central aperture, a plurality of molding slides circularly arranged on a first side of the ring cap, a plurality of snap-fit arms and a plurality of pilot tabs positioned on a second side of the ring cap, where the plurality of pilot tabs and the plurality of snap-fit arms are arranged in concentric circles with the snap-fit arms forming an outer circle and the pilot tabs forming an inner circle, and where each pilot tab of the plurality of pilot tabs is positioned directly behind a corresponding snap-fit arm of the plurality of snap-fit arms. In one example, the system prevents metal to metal contact between a tone ring and a shaft during axle shaft installation.

A control system for a vehicle having vehicle wheels comprises: brakes, wherein each of the brakes applies individual braking to a respective one of the vehicle wheels; memory storing brake characteristic parameters for controlling each of the brakes; and a processor configured to: calculate anticipated yaw, steering torque, and deceleration of the vehicle, associated with operation of the brakes; compare between the anticipated yaw and actual yaw of the vehicle, between the anticipated steering torque and actual steering torque of the vehicle, and between the anticipated deceleration and actual deceleration of the vehicle; and calibrate the brakes by adjusting the stored brake characteristic parameters of each of the brakes in response to a yaw difference between the anticipated yaw and the actual yaw, a steering torque difference between the anticipated steering torque and the actual steering torque, and a deceleration difference between the anticipated deceleration and the actual deceleration.

A method for controlling the operation of a hydraulic braking system of a vehicle and in particular a vehicle drivable using muscle power and/or—in particular additionally—using motor power, an electric bicycle, e-bike, pedelec, or the like. In the method, it is checked whether a discharge condition for discharging an accumulator of the braking system is met. If the discharge condition is met, initially a controllable inlet valve in a primary circuit of the braking system is set into a partially closed state over a predefined duty cycle, in particular of 10%, and/or for a predefined time span and then an outlet valve of the accumulator is opened for a predefined time span—continuously or in intervals—so that brake fluid is discharged from the accumulator via the outlet valve, the primary circuit, and the inlet valve into a reservoir of a master cylinder of the primary circuit.

The disclosure relates to a method for controlling an electronically controllable pneumatic braking system for a towing vehicle. The towing vehicle has front axle brake actuators and rear axle brake actuators; a primary system with a primary control unit for controlling the front and rear axle brake actuators; a secondary system with a secondary control unit for controlling the front and rear axle brake actuators in the event that a fault is detected in the primary system and the braking system is controlled by the secondary system; a trailer control valve for providing a trailer brake pressure at a trailer brake pressure port; and a PLC connector for receiving PLC signals from a trailer. The method includes: providing PLC signals received at the PLC connection both in the primary system and in the secondary system; and processing PLC signals in both the primary system and the secondary system.

A method for controlling an anti-lock braking system in a motor vehicle. The control is carried out based on a wheel slip of at least one of the wheels. A wheel circumferential speed and a groundspeed in the longitudinal direction of the wheel being taken into account to compute the wheel slip. The groundspeed being estimated in terms of value and direction based on signals from sensors that describe all six degrees of freedom in space.

A pole wheel is provided. The pole wheel can be mounted on a brake disk of a vehicle wheel brake. The pole wheel has apertures which are uniformly distributed over its circumference and which are spaced apart from one another by radial webs. The pole wheel has an axially protruding bulge radially above its apertures and radial webs.

A method for determining a brake pressure change for a wheel of a vehicle to optimize a braking operation. The method includes: supplying a current wheel status of the wheel, wherein the wheel status includes a plurality of status parameters; determining at least one status parameter whose value deviates from a target wheel status; determining a change direction of the brake pressure change depending on a deviation of the at least one status parameter from the target wheel status; supplying a brake pressure characteristic map for determining a value of the brake pressure change, wherein the brake pressure characteristic map associates a brake pressure change with the plurality of status parameters and is specific to the determined change direction of the brake pressure change and status parameter change; determining a value of the brake pressure change using the current wheel status and the supplied brake pressure characteristic map.

A hydraulic unit for an electronically slip-controllable power brake system of a motor vehicle. A cuboidal housing block is equipped with components for generating a braking pressure and for open- or closed-loop control thereof. On a motor side of the housing block, a motor is fastened to drive a braking pressure generator, while on a reservoir side, a reservoir is provided to supply the vehicle brake system with a pressure medium. The reservoir has at least one protruding fastening peg, which projects into a recess open to the outside on the housing block. Using a retaining pin inserted into a transverse bore of the housing block and passing through this recess, the reservoir is anchored to the housing block. The transverse bore, open on the motor side of the housing block, is in a flat portion in which a pin head of the retaining pin lies without the pin head protruding axially beyond a motor side of the housing block.

A method for monitoring an ABS control procedure in an electrically controllable brake system in a vehicle includes reading in input signals, wherein based on the input signals it is possible to derive currently prevailing control variables for the ABS control procedure and ABS control parameters that relate to a brake slip-controlled actuation of an ABS control valve of the brake system. The method further includes checking whether it follows that an activation of any ABS control valve that is allocated to a wheel of the vehicle is requested, and whether it follows that an ABS brake slip incident is present at at least a first wheel of the vehicle, and/or whether, based on the ABS control parameters, it follows that further ABS control valves, which are allocated at least to one second wheel of the vehicle, implement correctly a brake slip-controlled activation.
