Abstract: A valve includes an electrical park valve configured to receive an electrical park signal and to allow hydraulic fluid to flow through a first electrically-controlled channel in response to the signal indicating a parking request, and a main valve configured to receive the hydraulic fluid from the first electrically-controlled channel and to allow the hydraulic fluid to flow to a braking actuator in response to receiving the hydraulic fluid. The valve also includes an electrical emergency control valve configured to allow the hydraulic fluid to flow through a first control channel in response to a request for emergency braking. The valve also includes an emergency enable valve configured to receive the hydraulic fluid from the first control channel and to allow the hydraulic fluid to flow to the braking actuator in response to receiving the hydraulic fluid from the electrical emergency control valve.

Abstract: A displacement sensor includes a resistive element and a wiper element. The wiper element is separated from the resistive element in a parked mode the wiper element is in sliding electrical contact with the resistive element in a sensing mode. A user input interface may be coupled to at least one of the resistive element and the wiper element, wherein whether the displacement sensor is in the parked mode or the sensing mode is dependent on actuation of the user input interface.

Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing the speed of an aircraft are disclosed herein. An electronic brake control system may include a first braked wheel of a landing gear system, a brake pedal electronically coupled to the first braked wheel, and a first actuator. The first actuator may be configured to deliver a scalable clamping force on the first braked wheel via a brake stack. The first actuator may be configured to deliver an emergency maximum clamping force on the first braked wheel in response to the electronic brake control unit being in an emergency condition braking mode and a signal being received proportional to the brake pedal displacement. The emergency maximum clamping force results in the first actuator being driven in an overdriven state.
