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.

A parking brake control device controls a hydraulic pressure unit for braking wheels hydraulically and a parking brake device for braking the wheels by transmitting power of an electric motor to the wheels mechanically. The parking brake control device includes a hydraulic brake control unit capable of exercising a hydraulic brake control under which a brake is applied to the wheels by the hydraulic pressure unit, on condition that a signal is received from an actuation switch for actuating the parking brake device, while a vehicle is running, and a pressure decrease rate setting unit configured to set a pressure decrease rate according to a closing condition satisfied upon entry into the closing stage of the hydraulic brake control when a pressure decrease control is exercised in a closing stage of the hydraulic brake control.

A braking system for vehicles comprising —a manual actuator device, operable by means of a lever and/or pedal, operatively connected to at least a first braking device acting on a brake disc or drum, so as to exercise a braking action, —an automatic actuator device, operatively connected to said manual actuator device and/or to said first braking device, —at least one command panel which supervises the functioning of the braking system, said command panel being operatively connected to the automatic actuator device and being programmed so that when the manual actuator device is operated, the panel commands the operation of the automatic actuator device so as to be able to: —increase the overall braking action of the braking system, further operating the first braking device or further braking devices provided in said system and acting on further brake discs or drums, —control the braking action of the braking system so as not to further operate the first braking device or further braking devices of the system, —reduce the overall braking action imposed by means of the manual actuator device, directly countering the thrust action exercised on the lever and/or on the pedal.

An interface module for a vehicle comprises a circuit board having a light emitting device and at least one stationary light pipe for conveying the light emitted from the light emitting device. The interface module also includes at least one electromechanical switch having a moveable actuation member and a feedback device associated with moveable actuation member.

The present invention discloses an electric parking brake control device capable of accurately determining operation of an electric actuator. The electric parking brake control device is capable of performing an application process for controlling the electric actuator to move in the direction in which a friction member is pressed against a rotation body that rotates integrally with a wheel and a release process for controlling the electric actuator to move in the direction in which the friction member is moved away from the rotation body. Even upon receiving (time t12) a new operation request for operating the electric actuator during a period (time t1 to t5) from the start of the application process or the release process to the completion of the process, the electric parking brake control device does not change the operation of the electric actuator on the basis of the operation request.
