Abstract:
In an adaptive braking system for trucks, automobiles and the like a latching gate is provided to block a control channel generated control signal from activating a brake pressure modulator until there is present simultaneously at the gate input a signal indicating that a control wheel is exceeding a first deceleration reference level and that the deceleration history of the control wheel as compared to wheel rotational velocity has satisfied proper criteria.
Abstract:
In an adaptive braking system for automobiles, trucks and the like there is provided apparatus for delaying automatic braking control of the vehicle until, after the brakes are applied, a controlled wheel attains a first level of negative acceleration (deceleration) and thereafter the time integral of wheel acceleration attains a level related to controlled wheel speed.
Abstract:
A SKID CONTROL SYSTEM INCLUDES AT LEAST A SINGLE CONTROL CHANNEL AND A BRAKE PRESSURE MODULATING VALVE. INITIAL ACTUATION OF THE SYSTEM CAUSES A TEMPORARY AND FALSE CONTROL SIGNAL TO BE GENERATED DUE TO INITIAL CHARGING OF THE CONTROL ELEMENTS. THIS FALSE CONTROL SIGNAL IS APPLIED TO THE
BRAKE MODULATOR TO EXERCISE THE MODULATOR. ANY MOVEMENT OF THE MODULATOR INTERIOR PARTS IS SENSED BY A SWITCH AND IMMEDIATELY ACTS THROUGH A DRIFT PREVENTION CIRCUIT TO EXTINGUISH THE EFFECT OF THE FALSE CONTROL SIGNAL.
