A dual feedback, high accuracy pressure control means (10) for railcar braking systems having an electronic control module (14). A transducer (12) is electronically connected to the control module (14) for transmitting a pressure signal to the control modu...

The invention relates to an electro-mechanical braking device in which when a vehicle is suddenly stopped by turning off an ignition key switch (5) on a way of a slope road, a braking force maintaining control is not preformed, and it often occurs that the...

When a driver operates an activation switch, an electric parking brake apparatus performs a parking brake activation control in order to operate an electric motor until the tension of a base wire reaches a predetermined target tension to thereby bring park...

The braking force control method involves prohibiting the starting of a braking assist control operation during the execution of an ABS control operation. This prevents a braking assist control operation from being started frequently when the braking press...

In a method for the parking braking of a vehicle, in particular a lorry, which comprises a service brake and an air-pressure controlled spring-actuated parking brake, the air pressure for releasing the spring-actuated parking brake is maintained even when ...

The operating control device (18) (in drivers cab) is electrical, and communicates (28) with an electronic controller (20') for the parking brake system. This electronic controller is at least partially integrated into a further controller (20) used for ot...

The electropneumatic brake for a railway vehicle has two subsystems, including a normal system for operating the locomotive and train and a loco-brake subsystem mainly for slow running. The functionality of the loco-brake system is continually monitored. T...
