Hydraulic braking system for a vehicle and corresponding operating method
A hydraulic braking system for a vehicle includes a master brake cylinder, a hydraulic unit and a plurality of wheel brakes, the hydraulic unit including at least one brake circuit for brake pressure modulation in the wheel brakes. A bistable solenoid valve is associated with at least one wheel brake, which valve is looped into the corresponding fluid channel, immediately upstream of the associated wheel brake, and in a de-energized open position enables brake pressure modulation in the associated wheel brake, and in a de-energized closed position seals a current brake pressure in the associated wheel brake, wherein a hydraulic force brought about by the sealed-in brake pressure acts in a seat-opening manner in the corresponding bistable solenoid valve.
Self-contained intelligent braking subsystem
An off-road vehicle includes a driveline, a control system, and a braking system. The driveline provides driveline power and driveline brake power to a first tractive assembly and/or a second tractive assembly. The control system stores vehicle information, determines driving instructions based on environment data, and determines speed references for tractive elements of the first and second tractive assemblies based on the driving instructions and the vehicle information. The braking system includes brakes and a braking subsystem. The brake subsystem operates the brakes to provide brake power to one or more components of the first and/or second tractive assemblies. The brake controller controls the brakes to selectively provide the brake power and the control system controls the driveline to selectively provide the driveline power and the driveline brake power based on current speeds of the tractive elements and the speed references to accommodate the driving instructions.
3-WAY SOLENOID VALVE, BRAKE SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME, AND CONTROLLING METHOD FOR THE SAME
A 3-way solenoid valve, a vehicle brake system including the 3-way solenoid valve, and a controlling method for the same are disclosed. The present disclosure in at least one embodiment provides a brake system for a vehicle, including one or more wheel cylinders configured to apply braking pressure to each of wheels of a vehicle by using hydraulic pressure, one or more of the 3-way solenoid valve configured to increase or decrease the hydraulic pressure supplied to the one or more wheel cylinders, and a braking device configured to supply the hydraulic pressure to the one or more wheel cylinders by using a stepping force applied to a brake pedal or driving of a hydraulic pump.
