VEHICLE AND BRAKING METHOD AND DEVICE THEREFOR
A braking method for a vehicle is provided. The method includes the following steps: obtaining a first state information of the vehicle, where the first state information includes a vehicle mass and a deceleration required by braking; calculating a braking torque required by the vehicle according to the first state information, and controlling an output of an electric braking torque according to the braking torque required by the vehicle; obtaining a current vehicle speed of the vehicle and a maximum electric braking exit speed; and; controlling, if the deceleration required by braking of the vehicle changes to zero, the vehicle to unload the electric braking torque when the current vehicle speed is less than the maximum electric braking exit speed. A braking device for a vehicle and a vehicle are further provided.
Braking capacity decrease determining device
A braking capacity decrease determining device including a brake ECU is applied to a vehicle including wheel speed sensors and a brake device. The brake ECU performs a first determination process of determining whether a temporary braking decrease determination condition is satisfied for each of a plurality of wheels provided on the vehicle. The brake ECU additionally performs a second determination process of determining whether there are both a wheel for which the temporary braking decrease determination condition is satisfied and a wheel for which the temporary braking decrease determination condition is not satisfied out of the plurality of wheels and determining that a braking capacity of the brake device has decreased when it is determined that there are both a wheel for which the temporary braking decrease determination condition is satisfied and a wheel for which the temporary braking decrease determination condition is not satisfied.
Braking control device
A braking control device includes a first control unit configured to execute first control for reducing a target braking force, which is either a front-wheel braking force to be applied to front wheels of a vehicle or a rear-wheel braking force to be applied to rear wheels during increasing of deceleration of the vehicle, in a case that a behavior of the vehicle is unstable as the target braking force is increased; and a second control unit configured to execute second control for reducing a rate of increase in the target braking force and increasing a rate of increase in the front-wheel braking force or the rear-wheel braking force, which is not the target braking force, prior to execution of the first control.
CONTROL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE AND VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM
A control device for a vehicle configured to travel in a one-pedal mode in which driving and braking are controlled in response to operations on only an accelerator pedal is configured to control a braking force of the vehicle by using deceleration maps in which decelerations in a plurality of traveling directions are set for any points based on traveling history data, and calculate, during traveling in the one-pedal mode, a deceleration level based on deceleration information associated with a current traveling direction and a current position of the vehicle among pieces of deceleration information included in the deceleration maps.
Sensor device for measuring the rotational speed at a wheel of a vehicle, brake system and vehicle therewith and measuring method which can be carried out therewith for measuring the rotational speed, and braking method
A sensor device for measuring the rotational speed at a wheel of a vehicle has a sensor carrier with an active sensor for actively sensing the rotation of a pole wheel rotating along with the wheel to measure rotational speed. The sensor carrier is constructed and arranged such that it can be clamped in the region of the wheel to permit the active sensor to be used without requiring complex adjustment operations.
THERMAL CONTROL OF A SENSOR DEVICE
A method for operating a sensor device for determining a road condition. Beams of at least one beam source are generated and emitted into a scanning area. Beams that are scattered or reflected back from the scanning area are ascertained by at least one detector and evaluated for determining the road condition with the aid of the control unit coupled to the detector. Temperature-dependent influences on at least one component of the sensor device are ascertained with the aid of at least one sensor. The temperature-dependent influences on the component of the sensor device are compensated for by a heating device and/or a cooling device and/or during the evaluation by the control unit. A control unit and a computer program are also described.
Apparatus and method for advanced anti-skid brake and traction controls
A disk brake system includes a magnetically encoded disk brake rotor having at least one magnetized section encoded therein and a disk brake caliper comprising a plurality of disk brake pads attached thereto, the disk brake pads positioned adjacently to the disk brake rotor and configured to frictionally engage the disk brake rotor upon operation of the disk brake caliper. The disk brake system further comprises a sensor assembly mounted proximately to the disk brake rotor and comprising at least one magnetic field sensor configured to detect the at least one magnetic field, and a controller configured to receive signals from the at least one magnetic field sensor. The controller is further configured to enable selective operation of the disk brake caliper based on the signals received from the at least one magnetic field sensor.
Aircraft landing gear
An aircraft landing gear comprising an axle (3) intended to receive a wheel (4) comprising a rim (6) mounted to rotate on the axle (3) by means of at least one rolling bearing (8). The rolling bearing (8) comprises an inner ring (11) mounted around the axle (3) and an outer ring (12) rotationally secured to the rim (6) of the wheel (4). The landing gear further comprising a measurement device (21) intended to perform measurements of at least one operating parameter of the landing gear. The measurement device (21) is incorporated in the rolling bearing (8) by being secured to one of the inner or outer rings of the rolling bearing (8).
WHEEL SPEED DETECTING DEVICE
A wheel hub, a pulsar ring, and a magnetic sensor are provided. The wheel hub supports an axle. A brake disc is secured to the wheel hub. The pulsar ring is secured to the wheel hub. The magnetic sensor is configured to detect a passing of a pulsar hole disposed on the pulsar ring. The wheel hub forms a cylindrical outer peripheral surface as an outer peripheral side spigot portion. The brake disc includes a disc-side spigot portion in contact with the cylindrical outer peripheral surface. The pulsar ring includes a ring-side spigot portion in contact with the cylindrical outer peripheral surface. The brake disc and the pulsar ring are co-clamped and secured to a hub-side flange formed at the wheel hub.
Anti-lock brake device for use with a brake rotor disc
A disc brake assembly includes a rotor with an ABS tone ring insert assembly that functions as a rotation indicator in an anti-lock braking system. The insert is positioned in the hat of a rotor disc in a spaced relationship and is mounted to the mounting flange of the rotor disc. Forming the ring insert separately from the rotor disc also allows different coating materials to be used on the tone ring that may be more heat resistant. The ring insert assembly can be made of powder metal or made as a cast iron cylinder with a toothed cap made of powder metal having a corrosion resistant coating. Cost savings can be realized along with high performance when only a portion of the assembly if made of powder metal and coated.
