Abstract:
A brake ECU of a vehicle braking control device, during execution of brake pressurization control, performs actuation restriction control that restricts actuation of a motor as an arbitrary upstream fluid pressure (M/C pressure) that is the brake pressure input from the M/C side of the brake fluid pressure control actuator becomes higher. The brake ECU has a threshold value changing unit that sets at least the starting threshold value at a high level when the upstream fluid pressure (M/C pressure) is high compared to when low, and as actuation restriction control actuates the motor to pump out the brake fluid from inside of the reservoirs when the reservoir fluid volume exceeds the starting threshold value, and stops the motor when the reservoir fluid volume equals the stop threshold value.
Abstract:
A vehicle control device corrects the amount of brake control according to the degree of stall prevention requests such that the brake control amount is matched to a travel state. For example, when the vehicle body speed is low, the vehicle body is often traveling a road surface that is difficult to travel, and the degree of stall prevention requests is small. In such cases, the vehicle control device exhibits LSD effects and increases ground-covering properties by executing vehicle wheel slip control based on stronger brake control, while increasing safety properties by better enabling generation of deceleration. Then, as the vehicle body speed increases, because it is conceivable that the vehicle body is leaving a place that is difficult to travel and the degree of stall prevention requests is high, the vehicle control device executes switching such that brake control is lowered.
Abstract:
For traction control, different filters, i.e., a hydraulic-pressure-increase filter and a hydraulic-pressure-decrease filter, are provided for increasing and decreasing target pressure, respectively. The inhibiting effect that the hydraulic-pressure-increase filter exhibits with respect to target pressure changes is made less than the inhibiting effect that the hydraulic-pressure-decrease filter exhibits with respect to changes in the target pressure, and so the target pressure is increased quickly but decreased slowly. As such, even if the wheel-cylinder pressure decreases subsequent to the actual wheel-cylinder pressure having increased to follow the target pressure, the wheel-cylinder pressure decreases only gradually, reducing the amount of pressure increase needed to reach the target pressure when the wheel-cylinder pressure is next increased. The wheel-cylinder pressure can thus be increased sufficiently to reach the target pressure with a high degree of responsiveness, making it possible to prevent being unable to increase the wheel-cylinder pressure accurately due to low pressurization performance.
Abstract:
This vehicle brake device comprises: a simultaneous driving determination section which determines whether it is necessary to simultaneously drive an upstream-side motor and a downstream-side motor; and a PWM control section which, when the determination result by the simultaneous driving determination section is in the affirmative, changes the duty ratio of the PWM signal to be output to the upstream-side motor so as to be smaller than when the determination result by the simultaneous driving determination section is in the negative, and uses PWM control to drive the upstream-side motor.
Abstract:
This driving assistance device includes a braking control unit and a target speed determination unit. The braking control unit executes driving assistance control for adjusting the braking force to be applied to a vehicle by actuating a brake actuator such that the vehicle body speed does not exceed a target speed. In cases where the accelerator pedal is being operated in a state where the braking control unit is executing the driving assistance control, the target speed determination unit determines the target speed depending on the larger value of either: the vehicle body speed that is correlated with at least one of the wheel speeds of the plurality of wheels provided to the vehicle; or the lower speed limit value that has been set.
Abstract:
When an engine speed is less than a safeguard speed while a vehicle downhill assist control is being executed, a target speed of the vehicle downhill assist control is increased. In addition, if the target speed is greater than a vehicle speed, braking force applied to the vehicle is decreased.
Abstract:
This brake ECU executes vehicle downhill control for adjusting the braking force to be applied to a vehicle by actuating a brake actuator such that the vehicle body speed does not exceed a target speed. Also, in cases where the accelerator pedal is being operated in a state where the vehicle downhill control is being executed, the brake ECU changes the target speed such that, the longer the operation duration which is the duration for which the accelerator is operated, the higher the target speed.
Abstract:
A vehicle brake device is provided with: an acquisition unit that acquires travel resistance force produced between a vehicle wheel and a road surface touched by the wheel when, for example, a vehicle having the wheel travels, on the basis of driving force of the vehicle and acceleration of the vehicle; and a control unit that starts a control for supplying braking force to the wheel of the vehicle when a difference between the travel resistance force and a predetermined value exceeds a first threshold value and a differential value of the travel resistance force exceeds a second threshold value.
Abstract:
A hydraulic braking system includes: a master cylinder including: a pressurizing piston fluid-tightly and slidably fitted in a housing; a front pressure chamber located in front of the pressurizing piston and connected to a brake cylinder; and a rear chamber located behind the pressurizing piston; a rear-hydraulic-pressure control device connected to the rear chamber of the master cylinder and configured to supply control hydraulic pressure to the rear chamber; and an air bleeding device configured to perform air bleeding for an air bleeding target portion as at least a portion of the rear-hydraulic-pressure control device, in a state in which working fluid is prevented from being supplied to the rear chamber.
Abstract:
When driving of a motor is on and W/C pressure of a low-pressure-side wheel is increased, the driving of the motor is continued until the actual W/C pressure of a high-pressure-side wheel in the same system reaches a predetermined range relative to a target pressure. Specifically, if the target pressure of the low-pressure-side wheel is greater than a predetermined value, the braking hydraulic pressure of the low-pressure-side wheel is increased, the motor is driven, and to account for a resulting decrease in the W/C pressure of the high-pressure-side wheel, the driving of the motor is continued until the W/C pressure of the high-pressure-side wheel is restored. Temperature increases in the motor can thereby be prevented and durability can be improved by shortening the drive time of the motor as much as possible.
