    摘要: A method of and an apparatus for estimating a vehicle velocity, which are suitable for use in a vehicle. Velocities of drive wheels and follower wheels of the vehicle are determined and the fastest one of the so-determined velocities is selected. The velocity of the vehicle is estimated based on the fastest wheel velocity thus selected. The above respective processes are repeatedly executed at given time intervals. Thus, when the estimated vehicle velocity is faster than each of the velocities of the follower wheels and lower than the fastest wheel velocity, the estimated vehicle velocity determined immediately before the above estimating process is set as a desired estimated vehicle velocity. Accordingly, a high-accuracy estimated vehicle velocity corresponding to an actual vehicle velocity can be obtained, thereby making it possible to control brakes and driving forces with high accuracy using the estimated vehicle velocity.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method of and a system for controlling antilocking brakes employed in a vehicle such as a motorcycle. The position of an expander piston which constitutes an antilocking modulator is detected and the torque of a rotative drive source for actuating the expander piston is detected. A braking force used for each of the brakes is then computed from the detected position of the expander piston and the detected torque of the rotative drive source at the detected position. Further, friction coefficients of a road surface are estimated from the braking force thus computed and a target slip ratio is estimated from the estimated friction coefficients so as to carry out the optimum braking. Accordingly, the optimum target slip ratio can be estimated depending on high and low .mu. roads, thereby making it possible to provide satisfactory braking.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for controlling brakes using a reciprocating cut valve actuated by an expander piston that is moved via a crank pin on a crank shaft. The cut valve cuts off caliper pressure and adjusts the volume and pressure of an output hydraulic chamber to effectuate antilock braking. When changing from antilock braking to normal braking, the movement of the expander piston is controlled by repeatedly changing a crank angle of the crank pin during specified time intervals. The rate of increase in caliper pressure can be set according to (1) detected brake operation which is detected from a present crank angle and a target crank angle and (2) the frictional state of the road surface which is estimated from vehicle acceleration/deceleration.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is a method of and a system for controlling brakes. In the brake control system, grounding loads on front and rear wheels are determined and a correction value for the braking of a predetermined wheel is computed based on the grounding loads thus determined. A braking force is determined inclusive of the computed correction value. A correction value for the braking of the front wheel is computed based on the determined grounding loads. Thus, the optimum brake control can be made without being affected by a variation in the distribution of the loads of the front and rear wheels relative to the ground.

    摘要: The ABS is provided with a modulator, and when the ABS is activated, control of the caliper pressure by the driver, is modified by the operation of the modulator having the aforementioned inlet valve (normally closed to a pressurized fluid source) and aforementioned outlet valve (normally open to a fluid exit), both controlled by the above-described control logic circuit. The modulator increases or decreases the caliper pressure, in response to changes in the pressurized fluid, regulated by such valves. Depending on the operation of the control logic circuit described above, three events may occur. When the inlet and outlet valves are not operated (i.e. their normal state), the modulator releases pressurized fluid through the output valve, and increases caliper pressure, to increase braking up to a predetermined maximum. If only the outlet valve is operated (i.e. both the inlet and outlet valves are closed), the modulator remains in a constant state and likewise, the caliper pressure is kept constant. If both the inlet and outlet valves are operated (i.e. opened and closed respectively), then in response to the increased pressurized fluid, the modulator effects a decrease in caliper pressure to reduce braking. The above is summarized in FIG. 2.Thus it is seen that the brake control is effected by setting a threshold value for each of the slip ratio .lambda. and the acceleration/deceleration .alpha., and determining whether the actual state of each wheel (i.e. .lambda.and .alpha.), is at their respective threshold value or above (less). It is thus necessary to set processing times as short as possible to improve the operating speed of an actuator which executes the process referred to above. However, there are limitations on the operating speed of the actuator, and an improvement is actually difficult to achieve.In another prior art system, the modulator comprises an input hydraulic chamber which communicates with a master cylinder, for

    摘要: A system for monitoring and controlling a running condition of a motor vehicle such as a motorcycle has a wheel speed sensor and first and second CPUs. The first and second CPUs effect in a first mode, i.e., when an anti-lock brake control mode is not effected, the same calculations to produce calculated data to monitor the running condition of the motor vehicle, and compare the calculated data from each other to check the effected calculations. In a second mode, i.e., when the anti-lock brake control mode is effected, the first CPU continues the calculations to produce calculated data to monitor the running condition of the motor vehicle, and the second CPU performs an auxiliary controlling function for controlling the running condition of the motor vehicle by controlling a brake mechanism in the anti-lock brake control mode.

    摘要: In a hydrostatic continuously variable transmission, a pump cylinder of a swashplate type hydraulic pump is integrally and coaxially coupled with a motor cylinder of a swashplate type hydraulic motor. A number of distributor valves are radially arranged for reciprocal movement between radially inner and outer positions to put a large number of pump ports in the hydraulic pump into communication with the higher and lower pressure oil passages, and an eccentric ring circumscribed about the distributor valves is connected to an input member of the hydraulic pump for movement between a clutch OFF position and a clutch ON position. A clutch spring is connected to the eccentric ring for biasing the eccentric ring toward the clutch OFF position, and a weight is added to the eccentric ring and adapted to exhibit a centrifugal force for moving the eccentric ring toward the clutch ON position against a spring force of the clutch spring.

    摘要: A power transmission system comprises a hydrostatic continuously variable transmission constituted by integrally and coaxially coupling a pump cylinder of a swashplate type hydraulic pump with a motor cylinder of a swashplate type hydraulic motor. The transmission is rotatably supported at its opposite ends on a bearing. A first transmission device connected to an engine is connected to an input member of the pump from one side of the transmission, and a second transmission device connected to a load member is connected to an output member of the pump on the radially opposite side of the transmission. The first and second transmission devices are disposed adjacent each other near one end of the continuously variable transmission. This permits the points of action of loads on the input and output members from the first and second transmission devices to be placed in close vicinity to each other, thereby reducing the swinging moment and the flexing moment acting on the transmission due to these loads.

    摘要: An electric steering lock device is provided that includes a column pipe, a steering shaft pivotably passed through the interior of the column pipe, and an electric lock unit that has an electric motor and that can switch in response to operation of the electric motor between a locked state, in which pivoting of the steering shaft is prevented, and an unlocked state in which pivoting of the steering shaft is permitted, wherein the electric lock unit is disposed within the column pipe. This arrangement can advantageously make breakage or unauthorized unlocking of the electric lock unit difficult.
