Abstract: The present invention provides a process for controlling the driving behavior of an automotive vehicle which determines from tire sensing signals at least the vehicle mass and the momentary location of the mass center of gravity of the automotive vehicle. According to another embodiment of the invention the use of a mass distribution model is suggested containing, as the basic data, the basic mass distribution of the vehicle, namely such masses that are always identical even if the loading is different. Moreover, variable masses, such as location and mass of passengers, luggage etc., are determined from the tire sensing signals and are incorporated into the mass distribution model to provide a variable mass distribution. With such such data being known, also details typical of the driving dynamics of the vehicle can be determined so that yawing angle speed and side slip angle of the vehicle can be computed accordingly with no need of relying on the signals of a yaw rate sensor or a transverse acceleration sensor.

Abstract: A circuit configuration for detecting wheel sensor malfunctions includes circuits which process and analyze the sensor signals (s.sub.1 to s.sub.4), which ascertain the speed (v.sub.Rmax, v.sub.Rmin), deceleration and acceleration (a.sub.R) of the individual wheels and which compare these values with one another and compare them with predetermined threshold values (a.sub.0, v.sub.0, v.sub.1, -a.sub.1). Upon the detection of signals or combinations of signals typical of a sensor malfunction, the control will be disconnected after a predetermined period of time (T, T1+T2). When the measured acceleration values (a.sub.R) are below an overspeed threshold (a.sub.0) and the speed at any one of the remaining wheels is below a bottom speed threshold (v.sub.0), the control will be disconnected as soon as the speed of a wheel (v.sub.Rmax) exceeds a top speed threshold (v.sub.1). A time monitoring function is started in the presence of a measured acceleration value (a.sub.R) which is above the overspeed threshold (a.sub.0) and in the presence of a measured speed value (v.sub.Rmin) which is below the bottom speed threshold (v.sub.0) as soon as a measured speed value (v.sub.Rmax) exceeds a top speed threshold (v.sub.1). Anti-lock and traction slip control will be disconnected upon lapse of the predetermined time period.

Abstract: A brake system with anti-lock and/or traction slip control, wherein quantities (.DELTA.t.sub.EV, .DELTA.t.sub.AV) determining the pressure in the wheel brakes (10, 11) are measured and assessed. A wheel pressure pattern (p(t)) is formed from these quantities by integration which, by approximation, represents the pressure variation in the wheel brakes (10, 11). The output signal of the integrator (20) is fed back to the control logic (16) and assessed for slip control and/or braking pressure control. For the integration, taken into account are the braking-pressure-increase and braking-pressure-decrease characteristic curves (P.sub.A, P.sub.E) and the initial conditions (21) which represent the initial pressure upon commencement of the control.

Abstract: A process for monitoring tire pressure by comparing and evaluating the rotating speeds of the individual wheels of the vehicle which is based on the formation of speed correction factors. The values of the individual correction factors, correlations between the correction factors for typical travel situations, and tolerances for the correction factors, which depend on the actual travel situation, are determined during a learning phase (i.e. phase 1). The deviations of the correction factors from the learned values are determined and evaluated during a subsequent identification phase (i.e. phase 2), taking into account the travel situation-dependent tolerances and the progression of the learning process. Loss of tire pressure is signaled when the current speed correction factor determined for a wheel during the identification phase becomes smaller, taking into account the current deviation, than the speed correction factor already learned, taking into account the tolerance already determined for the current travel situation.

Abstract: A circuit configuration and method for a traction slip control system which evaluates the speed (v.sub.ER) measured at a driven spare wheel with a correction factor K(t) in order to maintain or improve the control function even when a smaller size spare wheel has been mounted. This correction factor (K(t)) is determined by axlewise comparison of the rotating speeds (v.sub.na1, v.sub.na2 ; v.sub.a, v.sub.ER) of the wheels of one axle and by comparison of the speed differences measured on the driven and nondriven axles, with traction slip control being inactive. Upon transition from a very slippery road surface (.mu..sub.low homogeneous) to a dry road surface (.mu..sub.high homogeneous), without any prior determination of the correction factor, the slip threshold (S) is raised temporarily. When starting with different right/left friction coefficients (.mu.-split), with the spare wheel being mounted on the high friction coefficient side, a higher slip threshold (S.sub.ER) will be effective for this spare wheel.

Abstract: An anti-lock hydraulic brake system is provided which includes a master brake cylinder (2) and a pump (16) and an inlet valve (12) and an outlet valve (14). The inlet valve (12) is a minimum element whose control compartments (12, 22) are interconnected through a throttle (19). Depending on the position of a piston (20), either the brake line (8) or the return line (13) is opened. The pump (16) feeds the brake lines during a brake slip control operation. When the outlet valve (14) is opened, a pressure gradient is caused at the throttle (19) which results in that the operating piston (20) is displaced. As a result, the brake line (8) is closed and the return line (13) is opened, thereby permitting pressure fluid to discharge from the wheel brake (10) into the supply reservoir (15).
