Methods and system controlling a power take off

Systems and methods for operating a power take off of a vehicle are described. In one example, operation of the power take off may be maintained even when slip of a power take off clutch is detected. In particular, the power take off may be operated at a lower output until the power take off may handle larger loads.

Method for actuating a clutch with a clutch actuation system, and a clutch actuation system

A method for actuating a clutch with a clutch actuation system, wherein an axially moveably mounted first piston (4) arranged on a master-side is moved via an electric motor, and the movement thereof is transmitted via a hydraulic section (8) to a second piston (10) positioned on a slave-side, which second piston actuates the clutch (11), wherein a path change triggered by the movement is measured and evaluated. In a method, in which a path change can be immediately measured, the path change of the clutch (11) detected on the slave-side is converted into an acoustic signal, which is transmitted via the hydraulic section (8) to the master-side for evaluation.

ELECTROMECHANICAL BRAKE SYSTEM HAVING SUSPENSION CONTROL FUNCTION

The present disclosure relates to an electromechanical brake system having a suspension control function. The electromechanical brake system includes an electromechanical brake connected to each wheel of a vehicle to brake the vehicle, a suspension configured to control suspension of the vehicle, a motor configured to provide driving force to the electromechanical brake or to the suspension, a first clutch configured to connect the electromechanical brake and the motor to each other, a second clutch configured to connect the suspension and the motor to each other, and a controller configured to output a control signal for controlling the motor to be connected to one of the first clutch and the second clutch based on a state signal of the vehicle.

Method for operating an automated drive train of a motor vehicle and automated drive train

A method for operating an automated drive train of a motor vehicle in which, upon actuation of a service brake up to a standstill of the vehicle, a drive connection between the drive machine and at least one drive axle of the vehicle is automatically disengaged by disengaging a clutch. During release of the service brake, the drive connection is automatically engaged by engaging the clutch. Based on a selected gear step, a desired drive direction of the vehicle is determined, and, during the release of the service brake, is compared with an actual drive direction. If the desired drive direction matches the actual drive direction, the pressure in the clutch is increased according to a first modulation characteristic curve. However, if the desired drive direction is different from the actual drive direction, the pressure in the clutch is increased according to a second modulation characteristic curve.

Hydraulic brake and disconnect for rotational machines
10794436 · 2020-10-06 · ·

A rotational system can include a shaft assembly rotationally coupling a first rotor, a second rotor, and a fluid pump. A fluid circuit can include the fluid pump that can be configured to motivate a working fluid through the fluid circuit. A pressurizing valve can be disposed downstream of the fluid pump wherein the rotational system can be configured to rotationally decouple the first rotor from the second rotor by closing the pressurizing valve. The pressurizing valve can be actuated by a controller. A method can include raising a pressure differential across a fluid pump driven by a shaft assembly thereby applying an increased braking torque to the shaft assembly. The pressure differential can be raised by actuating a valve in hydraulic communication with the fluid pump. The shaft assembly can rotationally couple a first rotor with a second rotor, and increasing the braking torque can decouple the rotors.
