A linear dual channel hydraulic control unit for a motor vehicle, having a motor section with an output shaft having a first output shaft end and an opposing second output shaft end. A rotationally adjustable wobble plate having an apex portion is fixed onto either end of the output shaft. A hydraulic block is mated onto either end of the motor section. Each hydraulic block includes an inlet for fluid communication with a braking fluid source and an outlet for fluid communication with a braking system brake, a pump cavity housing a pumping assembly and having an opening disposed on a first end, and first and second valve cavities housing first and second fluid control valves. Mated to each hydraulic block is a control sections providing first and second solenoid coils receiving portions of the first and second fluid control valves. The pumping assembly is reciprocally driven by the rotatable piston bearing surface along an axis radially disposed from and otherwise parallel to the axis of rotation of the rotatable piston bearing surface. Each of the wobble plates includes an apex that can be rotationally offset relative to the other about the axis of rotation ‘A’ to control the timing of the output cycle of the pumping assemblies; thereby reducing or eliminating the natural harmonic vibrations of the pumping assemblies and/or minimizing the current draw of the motor.

A braking system including a pre-charge with a plurality of pumps disposed in parallel with respect to one another. The pumps can direct pressurized brake fluid to the brakes during a controlled braking maneuver. The pumps operate with offset operating cycles such that a first pump is drawing fluid while a second pump is pushing fluid to the brakes. The invention provides an embodiment having three pumps operated in parallel, wherein the pumps define operating cycles offset 120 degrees from one another. The invention also provides a separate master cylinder reservoir feed circuit to improve response of the system, especially cold weather response.

A hydraulic control system for a brake apparatus includes a combination valve and a motor connected to the combination valve. Output by the motor in a first direction places the combination valve in a first configuration, and output by the motor in a second direction opposite the first direction places the combination valve in a second configuration different from the first configuration. In the first configuration, the control valve allows hydraulic fluid to flow along a first fluid path. In the second configuration, the control valve allows hydraulic fluid to flow along a second fluid path different from the first fluid path.

A hybrid brake apparatus for a vehicle includes a hydraulic brake circuit having a first fluid circuit and a second fluid circuit connected to a master cylinder for generating hydraulic pressure in the first and a second fluid circuits, and electrically actuated brake elements controllable as a function of the hydraulic pressure in one or the other of the first and second fluid circuits. The apparatus may include a pedal feel emulator in one of the fluid circuits. The apparatus may also include a booster for amplifying pressure in the fluid circuits, a sensor for determining that the booster has failed, and control elements providing compensation for the failed booster during operation of the electrically actuated brakes while the booster is inoperative.
