    摘要: Systems and methods for a vent interlock system to ensure vent cover closure prior to operation of a transportation vehicle. An embodiment of a system may include an interlock bar. The interlock bar may, in a lowered position, prevent a hydraulic valve handle of a hydraulic pump assembly from moving from an open position to a closed position, the hydraulic valve handle in the closed position to allow a vent cover of the trailer to be opened. The system may include a plunger valve connected to brakes of the transportation vehicle to lock the brakes of the transportation vehicle to prevent operation of the transportation vehicle when the interlock bar is raised. The system may include a spring operated latch attached to the transportation vehicle to hold the interlock bar in the lowered position via a notch or aperture in the interlock bar.

    摘要: An electropneumatic valve unit (100, 200) for a vehicle brake system has a plurality of valve sections (102; 104; 106; 108; 204; 206) integrated into a single valve housing (101). The plurality of valve sections (102; 104; 106; 108; 204; 206) includes a front axle redundancy section (102) configured to provide a redundant supply or control pressure for controlling brakes associated with a front axle of a vehicle or a tractor, and a trailer control section (104; 204) for providing supply and/or control pressure to a trailer connected to the tractor. The redundant supply or control pressure for controlling brakes associated with the front axle of the vehicle at the front axle redundancy section (102) is derived from an output pressure of the trailer control section (104; 204).

    摘要: A trailer brake control module (300a; 300b; 300c) for a towing vehicle (502) facilitating braking of a towed vehicle or trailer (504) includes a pressure supply port (P11), a trailer control pressure port (P22), a primary control port (P42) for receiving either directly and/or indirectly a control brake pressure for operating the trailer brake control module (300a; 300b; 300c). The primary control port (P42) receives the control brake pressure from a pneumatically operated pressure medium, a pneumatic control pressure line (308.1) provides alternative control brake pressure for operating the trailer brake control module (300a; 300b; 300c), wherein the pneumatic control pressure line (308.1) receives the alternative control brake pressure from an electronically operated pressure medium, and a relay valve (310) is activated using either the control brake pressure received at the primary control port (P42), or the alternative control brake pressure from the pneumatic control pressure line (308.1).

    摘要: An electropneumatic device for a pneumatic braking system, including a compressed air reservoir for providing a reservoir pressure; a brake pressure modulator which receives reservoir pressure and outputs a brake pressure at a brake pressure connection in a manner dependent on electronic braking request signals; a protective valve unit with a protective valve inlet, a first protective outlet and a second protective outlet; the protective valve inlet receiving the brake pressure and which it can provide at the first and second protective outlets; a first and a second pressure line; and, a brake actuator that is connected to the pressure lines. The protective valve unit is configured to throttle the brake pressure output at the first protective outlet in the event of leakage of the first pressure line and to throttle the brake pressure output at the second protective outlet in the event of leakage of the second pressure line.
