| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 7448700 | Anti-lock brake control device and brake control device In controlling a vehicle, an ECU (anti-lock brake control device) of a brake control device judges a difference in relative length between lock-to-lock time intervals of left and right wheels (step 302), calculates cumulative compensation amounts in dependenc... | 11/11/2008 |
| 6443539 | Algorithm for preventing wheel speed sneakdown on a low mu surface The duration and average deceleration of a vehicle wheel are measured during a wheel speed departure and compared to duration and deceleration thresholds to determined if a wheel sneakdown condition exists for the wheel.... | 09/03/2002 |
| 5707121 | Anti-lock braking systems (ABS) for road vehicles to avoid premature engagement of the anti-lock braking system An anti-skid braking system for wheeled vehicles having fluid actuated brakes associated with the vehicle wheels. The anti-skid braking system includes speed sensors associated with the vehicle wheels, a scanning control device response to speed signals f... | 01/13/1998 |
| 5567024 | Method and system for damping wheel speed oscillation on vehicles having anti-lock brake systems A method and system for damping wheel speed oscillation during an anti-lock braking event. The method includes the initial step of sensing the wheel speed and determining a wheel slip based on the sensed wheel speed and a vehicle speed reference. Next, th... | 10/22/1996 |
| 5498071 | Split anti-skid control apparatus The present invention relates to an improved antiskid control apparatus for vehicles. When the front wheel on either one of the right and left sides is antiskid-controlled, this apparatus detects whether the road surface is in the condition of split μ in... | 03/12/1996 |
| 5400251 | Retarding control apparatus A retarding control apparatus for controlling operation of a retarder, which is connected to an automatic transmission, by operating a retarder actuating device by manipulation of a retarder changeover switch includes control unit, to which are inputted a... | 03/21/1995 |
| 5302009 | Method and device for the braking of vehicles by the servo-control of the braking torque applied to a wheel The adherence of a wheel to a braking track is defined by a point of operation that is variable on an adherence curve as a function of the slip of the wheel. In operation, the braking torque servo control parameter utilized is the sign of the variation of... | 04/12/1994 |
| 5173860 | Reference speed determination for an antilock brake system A vehicle antilock control system provides for selectively enabling the rear wheels of a vehicle to free-wheel and thereby attain vehicle velocity to provide an accurate measure of the vehicle speed during antilock controlled braking.... | 12/22/1992 |
| 5104204 | Antiskid brake control system An anti-skid brake control system capable of determining an amount of brake pressure that should be applied to a wheel of a vehicle based upon the condition of the road surface. The relationship between the amount of brake pressure applied in a current cy... | 04/14/1992 |
| 4335431 | Skid control method Various arithmetic processings for skid control are performed by using the memory in which the data representing the relationship between the brake releasing period and the slip rate to be controlled and by using a microcomputer having at least one free-r... | 06/15/1982 |
