BRAKE-BY-WIRE BRAKING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLES
One embodiment of a braking system for vehicles may have a first brake group and a second brake group. The first and second brake groups may have respective braking devices and electro-hydraulic actuator devices operatively connected to the first braking device. The system may also have an interconnection branch between first and the second hydraulic actuation ducts, provided with a control valve. The system may also have at least one control unit that may be programmed to actuate the control valve to control the ducts and fluidly connect the ducts.
Parking Brake for an Electric Vehicle With Multi-Speed Gearbox
A commercial vehicle with at least one driven axle, at least one service brake, at least one propulsion engine, and wheels characterized in that the parking brake function of the vehicle is solved by a bistable locking means acting on both wheels. At least one multi-speed gearbox is provided to concurrently activate a first gear stage and a second gear stage having different ratios.
METHOD OF EMERGENCY BRAKING OF VEHICLE
A method of emergency braking of a vehicle includes: displaying a brake button in a vehicle; determining pre-touch information on a distance before the brake button is touched by a user; determining post-touch information on a distance after the brake button is touched; and performing any one of a first brake control in which general braking is performed according to the degree of the pressing of the brake button and braking force is added from a first time point after the brake button is pressed, a second brake control in which the general braking is performed and braking force is added from a second time point that is after the first time point, and a third brake control in which the general braking is performed according to the pre-touch information and the post-touch information.
BRAKING OR ACCELERATING METHODS AND APPARATUSES
Various technologies for reducing or increasing a speed of a vehicle by rotating its handlebar.
System, Vehicle, Method and Non-Transitory Computer Readable Storage Medium for Improving Driving Safety
A system, vehicle, method and non-transitory computer readable storage medium for improving driving safety are provided. The system includes: a steering wheel; a paddle attached to the steering wheel; a pressure sensor, which is installed between the paddle and a contact point of the paddle to the steering wheel and is coupled to a control component, wherein the pressure sensor is configured to sense a pressure exerted on the pressure sensor by the paddle and send the sensed pressure to the control component; and the control component, which is configured to, in responsive to receiving the sensed pressure, determine a level of deceleration corresponding to the sensed pressure and send a deceleration command which instructs to decelerate, based on the determined level of deceleration, a vehicle on which the system for improving the driving safety is installed.
Brake hydraulic pressure controller, motorcycle brake system, and manufacturing method of brake hydraulic pressure controller
The invention has a purpose of obtaining a brake hydraulic pressure controller capable of attaching a coil casing to a base body with a simple configuration, a motorcycle brake system, and a manufacturing method of a brake hydraulic pressure controller. In the brake hydraulic pressure controller, at least one projected portion is provided in the coil casing, at least one hole portion is provided in a surface of the base body to which the coil casing is attached, the coil casing is attached to the base body in a state where the projected portion is inserted in the hole portion, the projected portion includes a hook portion that bulges in a direction to cross a projected direction of said projected portion, the coil casing is held by the base body when a part of the base body abuts a surface of a base-side region that is a region near a base of the projected portion with a top of a bulge of the hook portion being a reference.
Method for warning sufficiency of a parking braking force
A method for warning sufficiency of a parking braking force may include operating a parking pedal or parking lever mounted on a vehicle; confirming a brake state of the vehicle; measuring a slope of the place where the vehicle is located; calculating an actual parking braking force of the vehicle and a required parking braking force of the vehicle; and determining whether the actual parking braking force is smaller than the required parking braking force.

System and Method for Controlling an Electronic Parking Brake
A system controlling an electronic parking brake of a vehicle includes an input device receiving an input pattern from an operator and a parking brake controller receiving the input pattern from the input device. The parking brake controller determines if the input pattern is a respective predetermined pattern for setting the electronic parking brake to one of a primary mode and a secondary mode. If the parking brake controller determines the input pattern is the predetermined pattern for setting the electronic parking brake to the secondary mode, the parking brake controller transmits an electronic control signal for releasing the electronic parking brake until a subsequent input pattern received by the input device is the predetermined pattern for setting the electronic parking brake to the primary mode.
